PORTUGAL. - Accounts have been received from Lisbon to the 3 d inst. A Court mourning had lxen ordered for Louis Philippe. Commodore Martin's squadron was still in the Tagus. ITALY• The Opinione of Turin, of the 3d inst., contains an article, signed by M. B ianchi Glom', who contends that Piedmont cannot and should not accept the me diation of France in her difference with the Court of Rome, because the Government of the French Re public has thrown itself into the arms of the priests, and caresses the Pope, Austria, and Russia. The uneral service celebrated in the church of St. Philip for the repose of the aoul of M. Santa Rosa was at tended by an immense crowd, and most of the foreign refugees residing at Turin. Princess Mont leard, mother of the late King Charles Albert, had arrived at the Royal Castle of Moncalieri, with her son, Prince Montleard. The Piedmontese Gazette of the 4th inst. contains the following : " The Arntonia of the 23, after copying the article of the oilic.ial joarnal contradicting a statement male by - the Courier de Lyon, rela'ive to the mission of General J)ella N.Ltrinora to that city, quot-s an extract from the Bulletin de Paris. in which it is assorted that the Gem - ral, in a conversation with General d'llautpoul, gave the latter to understand that the Piedmontese Government was disposed to subscribe to certain concessions, in order to maintain a friendly understanding between the Courts of Turin and Rime. Once for all we declare that there is no truth . in the account of that conference and con verAation." The Risorgimento announces that the King had spontaneously placed at the disposal of the family of the late Minister. Santa Rosa, the Royal villa, called the Vine of the Queen. A letter from Alexandria, of the 27th ult., states that 10 of the 40 Lazarist missionaries, lately expelled from Parma by the reigning Duke, had pissed through the city on their return to their respective convents at Turin, Genoa, and Casal. The:motive of their expulsion was unknown ; some, however, attri buted the measure to the liberalism of those friars. The Croce di Savoia, of the 4th instant, states, on the authority of a correspondent entitled to credit, that a Customs League had been concluded between Austria and the duchies of Modena and Parma. An Austrian agent who lately visited Modena, where he observed the strictest incos.., is believed to have defi nitively concluded the treaty, which was forwarded to Vienna on the 29th ult. Tuscany does not at present form part of the league, but negotiations to that effect were said to be pending. The Constitutional of Florence of the 31st ult. an nounces the return to that capital of the Grand Duke And his family. MARSHAL HAYNAU. The Daily News thus recalls some few of the more memorable acts of Marshal Haynau :—" It is well known that hundreds of executions took place in Hun gary with which the Court of Vienna had nothing to do, and of which at one time it much disapproved of the extreme severity, as it afterwards disapproved of the lenity shown. The Court of Vienna had nothing to do with the public floggings administered to ladies—acts committed under the command of Marshal Haynau, and never disapproved by him. The horrible circumstances of Count Bathyany's execution—the forcing him, though half dead, and with his throat severed, to the pain of an ignominious death—this was Marshal Haynau's own deliberate act, the act of a fiend, a monster in human shape. Mar shal llaynau did not do the thousands of his most in famous and bloodthirsty acts in Hungary from any order or from aoy motive save that of his own diaboli cal and vindictive nature. And even if he did commit them from order, that is no excuse. No man is bound to commit cruel and unjustifiable acts because his sovereign bids him. The greater part of the Hunga rian generals who were strung up like dogs in Arad by the order of Hay nau, surrendered in the belief of pardon, a belief that the Russians encouraged, nay themselves shared, fur many of these unfortunate victims were admitted to the hospitality of Prince Paskewich's table. Even from the Russians they experienced courtesy and humanity ; it was only when they fell into the hands of the fiend Haynau, that they were delivered wholesale, not to the military executioner, but to the Austrian hangman. It is hypocrisy, and the most mendacious hypocrisy, for writers to come forward and pretend that Haynau only obeyed orders in such things. Had he not judg ment, responsibility, and conscience ? lie was no Croat or Calmut. He was a German born and bred, the native of a civilized and Christian land. He must have learned what was due from man to man, or at least from man to woman, ere he exposed the backs of delicate females to the scourge. That he was ordered to do this is untrue, and it is base to say that any order should warrant a general, or a man, in executing, or suffering to he executed, such an order. If such a man as this, the most sanguinary and signal rufli th It history can point out for many ye , rs, had visited this country and brought back merely the friendly notes of men of high station, bicked by the sycophantic praise of pc, lice organs, we must say that it would have been a disgrace to England. Frain this the country has been saved by the bre , a ers' workmen of Bani:side, who wreaked the vengeance of the world and of hu manity in that w.;y which is peculiarly English—that iv, going to the extreme of insult without effecting bodily harm." - - LANDING OF CoNVICTS IN THE UNITED STATES, (From the New York Herald.) It appears that 300 convicts in all have received their pardon in Bermuda, and, as only ten have ar rived, the remainder may be daily expected. It i s stated that they have the option of going to the West Indies or the United States; but of course they will prefer coming Ivre. On the 18th inst. the barque Leontine, Captain Thormann, from Hamburgh, arrived at quarantine with 115 passengers, and was reported to the Mayor on the 19th. Before her arrival the Mayor had intelli gence that four of the passengers were convicts from Mecklenburgh for burglary, and were sent out to this country by the Government, who winked at the ingenious device of sending them first from the pri son to the workhouse, and thence on board the Leon - tine. Their names are Toadhim Kohler, Johann Woding, Carl Hahl, and Hermann Meyer. His Honour caused them to be arrested a soon as the barque arrived, and on being brought before the Mayor they were interrogated, and admitted the fact. The captain was also brought before the Nlayor, and, on his engaging to take the convicts back, his Honour thclined to proceed against him. They have been there fore placed on board. It seems that a correspondence has taken place between the authorities at Hamburgh and the Meeklenburgh Government in refence to these convicts, and that strong measures have been taken by the former to prevent a repetition of the trick. A communication was also received at Was'n ington from Hamburgh, notifying the United States Government of these facts. In the case of the Bermuda convicts, the captain has also undertaken to convey them Mack, and the offer, we understand, will be accepted. From the 781st page of the third edition of the "Revised Sta tutes of the State of New York," we find that the maximum penalty is a fine of 300 dolls. for each offence. with imprisonment not exceeding one year, but thatthe fine end imprisonment may be remitted on the mas ters of vessels taking back the convicts. This law, however, only applies to this state, and it would seem desirable to have a general law of Congress to pre vent such rascals landing anywhere on our shores. It will be recollected that the inhabitants of the Cape of Good Hope rose in arms against the landing of a cargo of convicts conveyed from Bermuda in the same vessel which brought Mitchell, and the result was that she had to put to sea immediately and con vey them to Australia. And shall we receiv e th e prohibited reprobates of British society, who are too bad even for a British colony to permit to land ? Nearly two years ago a freight of informers was smuggled hero from Ireland, which created consider able exci:ement. It is to be hoped that no more con victs or informers from the old country will be per mitted to land on our soil, or, if landed, that they will be forthwith dispatched to the country from which they came.

At the close of this period a strict examination takes place, and to all students who have merited such a distinction by their attainments and by their good character during the period of their studies in King's College, the Principal is empowered by the council to grant a certificate of attainments, which may be exhibited for the satisfaction of the bishop to whom any student may apply to be admitted as a candidate for holy orders. EXTENSION OF THE' ELECTRIC TELE GRAPH to FRANCE, IRELAND, and AMERICA. The establishment of an electro-telegraphic com munication across the Straits between England and France has been for a considerable time foreseen, as one of the most natural in the train of consequences resulting from the modern application of electricity to the transmission of intelligence between distant parts. If a line of wire could convey the electric im pulse for thousands of miles over the surface of the earth—as it has done and is doing—there could be nothing in the nature of things to prevent it from being equally efficacious if carried under the earth or even under water ; granted always what no one has been heard to dispute, that it is in the power of art to protect the wire from whatever antagonistic influences it may be exposed to when laid down under earth or water. Trials of submerged lines of wire had, in fact, been made with perfect success across the Thames and the Hudson—both tolerably broad rivers ; and it was not to be doubted that what could be accomplished in this way for one mile, could be ac complished for thirty or fifty, or, indeed, any number of miles. It was but, in any case, to make the line of submerged wire longer—to sink it, per haps, deeper ; and, if deeper, to protect it better. The simplest of ,things, however, when caaried out on a large scale, require often, as in this instance, for the doing of them, qualities of a high order—great enter prize,'great perseverance, great executive powers of construction and direction. It was a great thing, assuredly, to undertake to underlay a sea of some thirty miles wide with one continuous line of com munication—a single break or flaw in which would be fatal to the whole; there was a risk of failure to be braved, and in any event much expenditure of money, time, and trouble to be adventured on the issue:; and beyond all doubt or question, it is a great thing to have successfully accomplished. To all such honour as belongs to the performing of a great under taking well Messrs. Jacob and John Brett, the engi neers of the Dover and Calais line of telegraph are richly entitled. The newspapers say that they have obtained '• the exclusive right of electric communica tion between this country and France for ten years." We do not well see how this can be, looking at the legal difficulties in the way ; but we are sure that no reward they can have secured to themselves will be too great for the prodigious advantages which they have secured by their individual exertion., not only to both England and France, but to the world at large. For an electric telegraph to Calais, is not a thing which will stop there. It is a tele graph to Vienna, to Moscow, to Constantinople, to Ipahan, to Delhi, to Calcutta—to the remotest bounds, in short, of Europe and Asia. A few years ago people laughed when Lord Palmerston predicted at the Southampton meeting of the British Associa tion that a time might come when the Minister of the day being asked in Parliament, " Whether it was true that a war had broken out in India ?" would reply, " IV:lit an instant till I telegraph the Governor- General, and I will tell you." What was thought but a good joke in 1843, is now, in 1850, in the course of being actually accomplished, and ere a few years more is likely to take its place amongst the sober realities of the age. Nor to the Old World alone need our views of the ultimate progress of electro telegraphy be confined ; for, since the Eng lish Channel has been crossed, the crossing of the Irish must follow next, as but a matter of course; and Ireland once reached, there lies but a couple of thousand miles tf water or so between the Old World and the New. We say, " but," for after all where is the practical difficulty ? Not in producing the length of-wire required ; for any length of wire can be spun—not in covering and insulating the w ire; for thousands of miles of wire can be covered and in sulated just as readily and surely as one—nor yet in laying down, as the Dover and Calais experiment has fully shown. The only real difficulty in the case, we apprehend, will be to find ship-room for the enormous coil of is ire that would be required ; but this is an objection which vanishes before the recollection of such leviathan structures as the Canada and Great Britain. Besides, means may be found to ef fect on board the laying-down vessel a perfect junc tion of different lengths of wire, so as to allow of two, three, or more reels being employed. We as sume, of course, tht battery power sufficient to transtnit the electric impulse through a wire of some two thousand miles long is at our command ; but though we are not aware of any recorded experi ments that would justify us in taking the possibility of this for granted, we know that the recently re ceived magnet of Morse is founded on the principle of counting fur nothing the mere distance the electric message has to be transmitted ; and, at all events, the tact is one capable of tentative determination on land before a single yard of an Atlantic line need be laid down. The Old sad New Worlds being thus united, we should then see the dream of the poet even more than realised, the earth "girdled /ound" about—not in " forty minute s"—but in a thousandth part of the time--in a single brat of the clock. What would all the other triumphs of human genius be to this ? Time and distance literally annihilated throughout the bounds of the planet which we inhabit. A triumph only to be transcended when the planets shall themselves begin to telegraph one another—which is one of the very few things which, in this age of art miracles, one would venture without hesitation to say will never happen.—Mechanic's Magazine. THE GREAT SALT LAKE. The American papers publish the particulars of a report received from Captain Stansbury, an officer of the Topographical Engineer Corps, who is engaged in an examination of the valley of the Great Salt Lake, and a hydrographic survey of that singular sheet of water. The dispatch comes down to the 16th of March. Captain Stansbury says : " The provision train was dispatched down the east shore of the Salt Lake, under Lieutenant Howland, with orders to report to Lieutenant Gunnison, whilst I, accompanied by Dr. Blake, with a party of four men and 16 mule,i, addressed myself to make the tour around the western side of the lake. We were pro vided with one soldier's tent, and one wall tent fly, for protection from rains ; but they were of little we, as but in one or two instances could poles be pro cured for stretching them, so utterly destitute of timber was the region through which we passed. We found that the whole western shore of the lake consists of immense level plains of soft mud, inac cessible within many miles of the water's edge to the feet of horses or mules, being traversed frequently by meandering rills of salt and sulphur water, which apparently sink, and seem to embue and saturate the whole soil, rendering it miry and treacherous. The plains are but little elevated above the present level of the lake, and have, without doubt, at one time not far distant, formed a part of it ; for it is evident that a rise of but a few inches will at once cover the greater portion of these extensive areas of land with water again. I do not think I hazard much by saying that a rise of one foot in the lake would nearly, if not quite, double its present area. The plains are for the most part entirely denuded of vege tation, except occasionally patches of artemisia and grease-wood; and they glitter in the sunlight, pre senting ths appearance of water so perfectly, that it is almost impossible for one to convince himself that he is not on the immediate shore of the lake itself. This is owing to the crystallization of minute portions of salt on the surface of the mud, and the oozy slime occasioned by the complete saturation of the soil with moisture. From this cause also arises a mirage, which is greater here than I have ever witnessed else where, distorting objects in the most grotesque man ner, and giving rise to optical illusions almost beyond belief. I anticipate serious annoyance from this cause in making the triangulation. In an estimated distance of 150 miles on one part of the route fresh water and grass were found only in one spot, about midway of this stretch ; and we were obliged to subsist our animals, that is to keep life in them, by serving them out a pint of water each, night and morning, taken from the indiarubber bags packed upon their backs. The first part of this desert was about 75 miles in extent, and occupied us two days and a half to cross it, travelling all day and the greater part of the night, walking a great portion of the way to relieve the mules, who were sinking under the want of sustenance and water. In the latter por tion of this first desert we crossed a field of solid salt, which lay incrusted upon the level mud plain so thick that it bore up the mules loaded with their packs so perfectly, that they walked upon it as if it had been a sheet of solid ice slightly covered with snow. The whole plain was as level as a floor. We estimated this plain to be, at the least, ten miles in length by seven in width, and the thickness of the salt at from one-half to three-quarters of an inch. A strip of some three miles in width had been previously crossed, but it was not thick or hard enough to pre vent the animals sinking through it at every step. The salt ia : .the solid field was perfectly crystallized, and, where it had not become mixed Kith the soil, was as white and fine as the finest specimens of saline table salt. Some of it was collected acd preserved. After crossing the field of salt, we struck upon a fine little stream of running water, with plenty of grass, lying at the foot of a range of mountains, which seemed to form the western boundary of the i'nmediate valley of the lake. Here we were obliged to halt for three days, to give our animals an oppor tunity to recruit. The latter part of the desert was about seventy miles in extent, and was passed in two days, by prolonging our marches far into the night. Had we not found grass and water midway of this barren waste, both animals and men must have pe rished. We were, as I have reason to believe, the first party of white men that ever succeeded in making the entire circuit of the lake by land. I have under stood that it was once circumnavigated by canoes in early times, by some trappers in search of beavers, but no attempt by land has ever been successful. From the knowledge gained by this expedition, I am of opinion that the size of the lake has been much exaggerated, and from observation, and what I have learned from the Mormons, who have made one or two excursions upon it in a small skiff, I am induced to believe that its depth has been much overrated. That it has no outlet is now demonstrated beyond doubt; and lam convinced from what I have seen that it can never be of the slightest use for the pur poses of navigation. The water, for miles out from the shore, wherever I have seen it, is but a few inches in depth, and if there be any deep water it must be in the middle. The Utah River (or the Jordan, as the Mormons call it) is altogether too insignificant and too crooked to be of any use commercially. 'The greatest depth of the Utah Lake that we have found is sixteen feet; so that for the purpose of a connected line of navigation neither the river or the lake can be of the slightest utility. Such, at least, is my present impression. Further examination of the Salt Lake may, perhaps, modify this opinion with regard to the latter. The river connecting these two lakes is forty eight miles in length." THE PRESIDENT OF THE ROYAL ACADEMY. The election to this honourable office has become the subject of newspaper and artistic speculation, and, as might have been anticipated, several mem bers of the Academy are named as the most likely candidates. Among these we observe Sir Richard Westmacott, elevated in the ranks of sculpture, and so long esteemed in the best society for his great intelligence, and refined and gentlemanly manners; the veteran Pickersgill o also so long established, and standing so high in portrait painting ; Stanfield, one of the most eminent of English landscape pain ters, whose works rival the noblest of the ancient masters, and whose private character, and personal and other requisites, stand on an equal footing with those of his elder competitors whom we have mentioned, or any other of the Forty. Turner's name is enough to justify his pretensions on similar grounds. There are, too, Eastlake, dis tinguished by pen as well as pencil, and a known favourite with the higher powers, under whom he has acted in various onerous capacities connected with the progress of art; Edwin Landseer, an artist unsurpassed in his line, and living on intimate terms with the best classes of society ; D. Roberts, in art, social status, and fitting attainments, in ferior to no one ; and finally, Leslie, with abilities for the palette and the ars loquendi, needed by the President, which would render his elevation, per se, unexceptionable. The election rests with the mem bers of the body, and there is a veto in the Crown. It will thus be seen that there is no want of an ade quate field out of which to . choose the new President ; a choice which must have been made at this period, from retirement, even had the chair not become va cant by the melancholy event which has made it so in the course of nature. Upon whom the lot is destined to fall, it would be premature to speculate at a sea son of the year when so many of the electors are out of town on their autumnal tours ; and conse quently their sentiments cannot be distinctly ascer tained. Yet we think we may, from our acquaintance with the body, venture an opinion that Sir R. Westmacott stands about the fairest chance among all the probable candidates. Mr. Eastlake enjoys a handsome income in connexion with the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851, and other sources, which it may be thought he would not like to give up in exchange for the honour in view, which, with the claims upon it, is not of a very profitable kind. Sir E. Landseer is stated to be another competitor very likely to be successful, as we have heard from some of his brethren ; and Mr. Pickersgill is a favourite, on account of his long standing and station in the art. At any rate, the 31 of November ensuing, the regular anniversary of the Academy for the transaction of its important business, and election of its members, must decide the question, and we cannot but feel that it will be satisfactory to the country to congratulate the individual chosen, on whomsoever among those we have indicated that choice may fall. Literary Gazette. HOP IN TELLIGENCE. BERSTED.—We continue good, but shall not have more hops than now show themselves. In about a week we shall begin picking generally. Some of the grounds promise to grow a ton an acre. We had a very heavy frost this morning, which is against them. TROSLEY.—We are clean and all right, and shall begin pinking about the middle of next week. WEST PECKHAM.—We cannot record any improve ment. The grapes are doing tolerably well, but the goldings are all but gone. HOLLINGFORD.—We are all right and clean ; a little more backward than others; but, beyond that, we have no cause to complain. CHART SUTTON.—Upon the whole we are tolerably good, but in some places have commenced picking to day (Thursday), owing to an irruption of lice. EAST SUTTON.—We are going on very nicely, and continue clean. We have not commenced picking. BIRLING.—The crop will be a full average one, and the hops maintain their colour well. ALLINGTON.—We are looking very well, and shall commence picking about the middle of next week. DITTON.—We are doing well, and shall begin picking next week. BATTLE, SEPT. 4.—Our hops have rallied, and look very nearly fit for picking. A few more genial days and nights, and our suspense will be lessened. CATSFIELD, SEPT. 4.—The fortunate turn of the weather has been exceedingly beneficial, and we shall no doubt soon have to engage pickers. WESTERHAM, SEPT. s.—Though we have had some cold nights, we have had warmer days, with more sun, and our hops have considerably improved since last week ' • picking will partially commence the lat ter end of the week. BRASTED, SEPT. s.—Our hops have improved since last week; in many of the gardens they have obtained a good size ; within the last few days they are much grown. NORTHIA.M, SEPT. s.—The hops are going on very favourably. Several of the growers commence pick ing on Monday, and it will become general the latter part of the week. EDENURIDGP.—We can say no more than we did in our last report, only by saying we still flatter our selves of having a very fair average crop. Picking will commence next week. Duty with us 200,000/. to 210,0001. BRIGHTLING.—We are going on favourably, and picking will be general by the latter end of next week. COWDEN, SEPT. s.—The hops are going on well. We have a little mould, but not worth talking about. Picking will be general next week, and various are the opinions respecting the crop; many think they are overrated. %EDE, SEPT. s.—The hop picking will commence next week. Although we have had favourable wea ther, the hops in many gardens are very small, and are getting yellow on the dry soils. We notice mould in several gardens, but not to any extent, but UDIMORE, SEPT. s.—The mould is doing mischief in some chsothat h The hops hop pickingps in com menced g in ard n e n n e s, so garden much on Tuesday.most of the plantations have obtained agood growtb, and will yield a good crop. ICKLESLIAM, SEPT. s.—There is a great variety in this parish as to quantity of hops per acre ; one garden on Brook Farm is estimated at 30 cwt. per acre, some will produce a ton, and some will not produce 12 cwt. per acre; but, taking the parish ge nerally, it will produce a very good crop. There is mould showing, but at present not of much conse quence. in seine gardens the hops do not come out well, and will be small. . ~ EwunftsT, S EPT. s.—The warm sun the last few days has much improved the backward small hops, whilst some of the best grounds are very fine, parti cularly on Messrs. Daws' plantation ; picking will commence about the 12;b, and become general about the 16th instant. OTFORD, SEPT. 4.—The weather has been fa vourable during the past week; picking will com mence on Monday. KEMSING.—We continue as well as heretofore; no change for the worse has taken place. SEAL.—The hops afford a good prospect for both growers and pickers. HAWKRUBST, SEPT. 4.—The hops are going on favourably ; they have grown out more this last week, and are ge'ting forward for picking, which will bm a general thing next week. We find in some grounds the red rust in the hops; where that is the case, they will begin rather earlier.—Surrey Standard. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Sept. 9. (B fore Mr. Commissioner Fah E.) IN THE BANKRUPTCY OF T. J. EDWARDS. The bankrupt, who was a dressing-case manufac turer, in King-street, Holborn, came up on the ques tion of certificate. The unsecured debts are between 6,000/. and 7,0001. The assets, it is expected, will realise a considerable surplus, after payment in full of all the creditors. Mr. Fraser, for the assignees, highly commended the official assignee (Mr. Cannan) for the exertions used by him in collecting the debts due to the estate, many of which were only a few shillings. A dividend of lof. in the pound bad al ready been paid. In this commendation the trade assignee joined. The COMMISSIONER said it gave him great satisfac tion to hear Mr. Canaan spoken of as he deserved. He well knew that no two functionaries could do more to promote the interests of the creditors of the several bankruptcies which were placed under the ad ministration of his court than the two official assig nees, Mr. Cannan and Mr. Whit more . Hi s H onour then awarded a certificate of the first class. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Augustus Robinson was again placed at the bar be fore Alderman Challis, charged with obtaining 951. under fraudulent pretences, and also with uttering a number of forged cheques, with a guilty knowledge of the same. From previous examinations it appeared that the prisoner was clerk to the prosecutor, Mr. Charles Keyser, of the Stock Exchange, and that he had from time to time drawn money (by cheques) on his master's account from Sir J. W. Lubbock and Co.'s bank ; he was intrusted with the bank- book to make up on its return from the bank, and in fact every facility afforded him to commit fraud upon his employer. It was ascertained by Mr. Keyser that from the 2d of May last a discrepancy appeared in the accounts, which continued up to the present time, when he found that ten cheques had been drawn in his name, and without his knowledge, on Sir J. W. Lubbock's bank, and paid accordingly, which cheques were now missing from among the other and genuine vouchers in the bank-book. The only cheque that could be easily proved was one drawn for 201., and paid to the prisoner in two 51. notes and 101. in gold. The numbers of the notes being known they were traced to the Bank of England, where they had been paid in. On one was written "R. H. Cooper, July 31, 1850," and on the other the name of " Michael Heenan." Books were produced to show that the amount of 201. was paid to the prisoner on Mr. Key sees account on the 17th of August last. The case was remanded from Friday to obtain further evidence with regard to the two 51. notes, and for the officer to search prisoner's lodgings. The following was the additional evidence : Robert Hawkins Cooper said, he knew prisoner very well ; had seen him frequently in his shop as a customer. Prisoner always went under the name of Rawlings to him. On the 31st of July, he (prisoner) paid witness two sovereigns. He could not swear he had not changed a note for prisoner, but he believed he had not. He knew nothing of the note that bore his name. He paid 201. on the same day to Messrs. Heron, M'Culloch, and Squire, wholesale druggists, of 95, Bishopsgate-street -within. H: could not re member whether he paid the money in notes or gold, as he never marked any notes that passed through his hands. He believed he had not rect ived a 51. note from any one else about that time ; but he could ascertain by referring to his books whether he had had any bills to that amount paid to him by any of his customers on or before the 31st of July. Mr. Heenan, tobacconist, of King William-street, knew nothing whatever about the Si. note bearing his name. He did not know prisoner. Edward C. Stringer, clerk to Messrs. Heron and Co, said he believed the name of " R. H. Cooper," and the date of one of the notes, were in his hand writing. He received it from Mr. Cooper in pay ment, with others, for goods he had had from the firm. Mr. Cooper paid the sum of 20/. in notes on the 31st of July to witness. There was an entry in the day-book to the same effect. There was also a similar entry in the -hook, but - 'rig to some delay it was made - ht of August. Police-constable , sid, since the last examination he hat; ..ie prisoner's lodgings, and in addition to and betting-books, and memorandums, he had found a portion of a cheque-hock belonging to Sir John William Lubbock's bank, and which was marked with a letter " K." Mr. Briggs, a clerk to Sir J. W. Lubbock and Co., said the part of ihe cheque-book produced was the same used by their firm. He had no doubt, on seeing the initial-letter " K," that the book was ori ginally given to the prisoner fur Mr. Keyser's use ; but he could ascertain for a certainty by referring to the books of the bank, whether that particular book was given for prosecutor's use or for that of any other person. Alderman CHALLIS said the finding of the cheque book was a material point in the evidence at present against the prisoner. He thought the case began to assume a more serious form, as far as the prisoner was concerned, than it had before. The destruction of the alleged forgeries had made it doubtful whether any charge could be effectually sustained against the pri soner, but the evidence now before him would induce him to grant a further remand, to arrive at the de sired information relative to the proper ownership of the cheque-book.—The prisoner was then remanded, BOW4TREET. John Page alias Mary Ann Page, was charged with indecently assaulting an Irishwoman in Covent-garden Market. Sergeant Chadwick of the F division stated that the prisoner bad lived by cadging about the market for thirteen years—since he was a child. He had ben repeatedly convicted by the magistrates at Bow-street as Mary Ann Page, having al wa y s worn f em ale ap parel until about twelve months ago. He was treated as a woman in the neighbourhood, but during his last confinement in Tuthill-fields Prison he was provided with man's clothing by order of the governor and medical officers. _ Mr. HENRY said it was quite clear the prisoner bore a very bad character, and inflicted a penalty of 51, or two months' hard labour. The prisoner was committed in default. Chantrey W. Deverell, under twenty years of age, was charged with threatening the life of his father, who holds a situation in the School of Design at Somerset- house. The disobedience and heartless misconduct of the defendant were sufficiently proved by the evidence of the father and a servant of the family ; while his vin dictive behaviour in the presence of the magistrate afforded abundant confirmation of the charge. Mr. HENRY lectured the defendant without making any visible impression upon his mind, and then ordered him to keep the peace for four months. In default of the requisite sureties (two in 501. each) he was committed to prison for that period. TV ORBIIIII-STREET. Mr. Edward Denman, one of the corporation corn meters, appeared upon a warrant before Mr. Ham. mill, charged with the following aggravated assault upon Mrs. Emma Kirkness, the wife of a commercial traveller residing in Fellowes-place, Kingsland. The complainant, a ladylike, delicate-looking woman, in an advanced stage of pregnancy, stated that the defendant, who was a friend of her husband, and had taken tea with the family on Monday se'nnight, when Mr. Kirkness intimated his intention to proceed upon a journey the following morning, knocked at the door on the evening of that day, and, on its being opened by the servant, asked if her master was at home, and on being answered in the negative walked straight into the kitchen, where the witness was seated. After taking a chair at the table he expressed a wish to have some supper, and, hand ing some money to the servant -girl, requested her to procure some ham and porter in the neighbourhood. The instant she bad gone out for that purpose the de fendant abruptly invited her to place herself upon w his knee, stating that he as an old married man, and that she had nothing to fear from him. Witness in dignantly rejected the overture, upon which the de fendant knelt down before her and kissed her several times, and at the same time pressed her knees down upon the chair and insisted that she should return the salute. She used her best endeavours to extricate herself from his grasp, but the defendant held her so firmly that shecould not, declaring that he would release her at once if she complied with his request, and feeling greatly alarmed and agitated, she was com pelled to do so to escape from further violence. The defendant then released her, and hearing the servant at the door, she hastened to admit her, when the de fendant, after eating the provisions she had purchased and pressing the witness to partake of them, which she declined, desired her to send the girl out again for eome cheese and pickles. This she positively re fused to do, when the prisoner authoritatively ordered the servant to go for them, and having again given her money, and thrust her out of the room, witness directed her to leave the door open and return again as soon as possible. As soon as the girl had quitted tho houss she rose from her chair to snuff the candle, but was instantly followed by the defendant, who assailed her with the grossest indalicacy. ALer de scribing the details of the outrage, which were of too scandalous a nature to admit of publication, she pro ceeded to state that she called bim a " base wretch," and asked him what he meant by such conduct, but the defendant ridiculed her expostulations, and con tinued smoking a cigar until the servant returned, when he again wished her to go out for some gin and peppermint. Witness, however, prohibited the girl from again leaving the room, and after repeatedly requesting the defendant to leave the house to no purpose, she desired her servant to open the door for him and show him out, and the defendant, after seizing her band and f ,rcibly shaking it, at length quitted the place. On the following Thursday she received a letter from her husband, apprising her of his address in the country, with which she was previously unacquainted, and she immediately trans mitted to him an account of the indignities to which she had been subjected, and on the following day he hastened up to town and took out a warrant for the defendant's apprehension. The witness was severely cross-examined by the defendant, but without eliciting anything in the slightest degree at variance with her previous testi m trip. _ _ Rhoda Passingham, a girl 12 years of age, con firmed the evidence of her mistress, so far as the cir cumstances had come under her observation, and aided, that on returning from her first message she noticed that the prosecutrix appeared to be greatly flurried and alarmed, and that on coming back upon the second occasion she heard her mistress in loud al tercation with the defendant, who afterwards wished her to go out for some spirits, but the prosecutrix for bade her doing so. When called upon for his answer to the charge, the defendant declared that the accusation was en tirely without foundation, and trusted that the ma gistrate would allow him an opportunity for the em ployment of counsel, as he had been taken into custody at a moment's notice, and no time had been afforded him for the successful prosecution of his defence. Mr. ITamsatm. said that ample opportunity would be furnished bim for that purpose, as it was clearly a case fur the consideration of a jury, and he should therefore order him to put in substantial bail, himself in 801. and two sureties in 401. each, for his appear ance at the next examination, when the depositions of the witnesses would be formally completed. SOUTHWARK. Edward Bishop, a well-dressed young man, was charged with throwing a cauliflower of some mag nitude on the stage of the Victoria Theatre, striking Mr. Higgie, one of the actors, during the performance of the Mouse, and causing great confusion and dis turbance in the theatre. Mr. SECKEE said it was a most disgraceful act, and, as a caution to othurs, he would order the de fendant to find bail to keep the peace for 12 months. The required sureties having been entered into, the defendant left the court with his friends. RUSE OF A RUSSIAN DEVOTEE OF LIND. A young and wealthy Russian officer was sent over here in May, 1847, on an affair of much im portance ; a few days only were allowed him to transact the business. It was the eve of that musi cal insanity, the Milt of Jenny Lind. Our Rus sian shared the anxiety of the million to be present; but, on applying for a ticket, he found they had been all sold. He tried the music shops, &c., but without success. He offered 201. for a stall, to no purpose. This was desperate ; he was to leave London the next day. therefore the offer of procuring a stall for Jenny Lind's second appearance was useless to him. The stranger was no common-place person ; he resolved, coute qui coutp, to try every possible means to gain his object, awl accordingly went early and stationed him self at the principal entrance to her Majesty's Theatre. Here he addressed several who were wait ing for the opening of the doors, and offered a hand some sum for the relinquishment of their admission in his favour, but all were inflexible. Money was no object; no Russian gold could have atoned to them for the loss of the Swedish Nightingale's rich notes, and our friend had almost begun to despair, when, all at once, he felt an attempt at his pocket. He quickly put his hand behind him in time to catch hold of the thief, who had fully succeeded in extri cating his note-case, as it was actually in his posses sion. Our friend, who was a muscular young man, immediately seized the delinquent by the collar, and being a tolerably good English scholar, signified his intention of delivering him over to the police. The poor wretch pleaded extreme poverty, but this would not do; a wife on a bed of sickness, but this was equally unsuccessful ; at the details of three starving children (the traveller was a young father) the pickpocket completely succeeded in molifying his captor. " Well," said he, "I forgive you, but only on one condition; as you are so expert in the extrac tion of property you must immediately procure for me one of these gentleman's pocket-books ; if it should contain an admission fur the opera to-night, I will allow you to depart unmolested, with the addi tion, perhaps, of a trifle for your wife and children ; but mind 1 shall ha - ve my eye upon you, and at the least appearance of your attempting to escape me, I shall give you in charge of the police." The man cheerfully undertook the commission; and in a few minutes our Russian friend was in possession of a handsome pocket-book containing the much-craved for stall-ticket. Admonishing the light-fingered gentle man to be more honest in future, and presenting him with a handsome gratuity for his wife and family, he very soon lost sight of his professional friend in the opening rush into the theatre. The next morning Mr. —, a respectable old merchant, retired from business, was at breakfast, and was describing to a friend his disappointment the night before in not hearing Jenny Lind, in consequence of his having been robbed of his pocket-book at the entrance to her Majesty's Theatre, when the servant brought in a small parcel accompanied by a note. On opening the parcel, what was Mr. —'s as tonishment when he discovered the stolen pocket book exactly in the same state as when he lost it, except that, in place of the single•stall admis sion, it now contained a ticket for a box on the grand tier for the next night of Jenny Lind's performance. Tne note contained the following words : " Sir,—Pray accept the enclosed box-ticket as a small atonement for your disappoinment yester day evening. Having offered the sum of twenty pounds unsuccessfully for a stall, I enclose you that sum for the use of yours. Hoping you will enj oy the treat of which I so unceremoniously deprived you, believe me, dear Sir, your very obliged, FANATIco." The note contained a cheque for twenty pounds.— Musical World. CORONEit'S INQUEST. Yesterday morning Mr. Payne, the City coroner, held an inquest at the Fox Tavern, White-street, Southwark, on the body of Catherine Collins, aged 35, whose death was alleged to have been caused by the brutal violence of her husband, Richard Collins, on Wednesday last. The inquiry was opened pro forma on Friday last, and, after ordering the man into custody, Mr. Payne adjourned the inquiry with a view of having a post mortem examination. _ On the first opening of the inquiry a great number of witnesses were examined, from whose testimony it appeared that deceased resided with her husband in New alley, White-street, Borough. On Wednes dAy morning, about 7 o'clock, the neighbours heard a noise of quarrelling in Collins' room, and heard him demanding money from her. The noise was repeated about 9 o'clock, when struggling, cries of "Murder," and groans were heard, and several women entered the room. They found Mrs. Collins' (who was eight months advanced in pregnancy) lying on the floor, with her husband stooping over her and tearing her dress. She was taken up, and placed in bed, but she died within half-an-hour. Her husband afterwards admitted that he had beaten her, saying—"l did not strike her to hurt her; but I have done it, and I must suffer for it." Mr. Morgan, a surgeon, who was directed to make the post mortem examination, said that he found the eye bruised, but the rest of the body was so dis coloured from decomposition that it would be impos sible to tell a bruise from the surrounding parts. On opening the body he found that the cause of death was the rupture of a large vein, previously diseased, in the vagina. This might have been caused by a blow, a fall, or great muscular exertion and struggling. The disease of the vein was not dangerous to life, and it would not have burst without some violence. He could not trace any external bruise, as the tissues all around were infiltrated with blood. Death arose from hemorrhage. A person kneeling on the woman might cause the rupture, or any very heavy pressure on the part would produce it. The CORONER observed that one of the former witnesses had spoken about a kick inflicted on the de ceased. He wished her to be recalled. Several jurors observed that there seemed a great deal of reluctance on the part of some of the witnesses to communicate all they knew. One of the witnesses (a Mrs. Taylor) had been so much annoyed by some of the relatives of the man that she had been obliged to seek the protection of the police. They had threatened to burn her house down. Mrs. Taylor's reply to that threat was, that she had told a good deal, and, if they did not mind, she would tell a good deal more. A rather significant observation. Mrs. Cooper (recalled) admitted hearing the de ceased woman say that she had been kicked; she did not say by whom. The words she used were, " Oh, my baby is born ; I have had a kick." She was then lying on the ground in great agony. A Mrs. Con nell was the first person who entered the room. She had not been examined. Mr. PAYNE directed Mrs. Connell to be sent for, and, in the meantime, Mrs. Taylor was called. She said she had been very much abused and annoyed, and went in fear of her life. She thirst not go down the court, and they had threatened to set her place on fire. The witness gave her answers with evident reluctance, and was obliged to be threatened by the coroner. She then admitted that she had heard the deceased woman scream " Pray don't beat me so, you will murder me ;" and the child also cried out, " Oh, father, don't beat my mother so." The child was examined. She had been batter taught than might hive been expected, and seemed quite aware of the necessity of speaking truth. She was accordingly sworn. Her name was Elizabeth Col. lins. The deceased woman was her mother, and she died on Wednesday morning. Oa Wednesday morn ing her father and mother quarrelled about money matters. Her father struck her mother on the mouth and made her mouth bleed. He afterwards struck her across the shoulders with a cane. She was drunk et the time, and fell between two chairs. H=r mother said, " Pray don't hit me, you see what a state I am in." Witness said, " F4ther, don't hit her, because she will only die." Her mother came in at half-past two in the morning, and was then quite tipsy. Her father went out after beating her mother, and some women came in and lifted her from the floor to the bed. In reply to many questions from the jury, the wit ness made several irreconcilable statements, showing that the accuracy of her evidence could by no means be depended upon. Mr. Morgan said that, in his opinion, the fall be tween the two chairs would not account for the injury he found. Mrs. Sweeney, recalled, said that the deceased was lying on her left side on the floor when she entered, and her husband was holding her and saying, " Give the money." The deceased clutched witness's clothes and raised herself, and immediately after wards said, "Oh I my baby is come into the world." Her husband said, " What is that she says ?" and on learning, he left the room at witness's desire. Witness placed her between two chairs on the floor, and sent for assistance. She sank very rapidly, and died soon after. The CORONER, having gone through the evidence, said that if this woman's death had been caused by her husband while unlawfully assaulting her, the case amounted to manslaughter. The jury, after some deliberation, returned a verdict of "Manslaughter" against Richard Collins. The witnesses were then bound over in the usual form to attend at the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court. THE ARMY. DEATH OF CAPTAIN MOORE, KING'S DRAGOON GUARDS.—A few days ago, we (Clunntel Chronicle) had great pleasure in announcing that this deeply lamented gentleman's health was considered as some what improved, and we had sanguine hopes of his ul timate recovery ; but our expectations were doomed never to be realised. We have this day the painful duty to record his death. He died on Wednesday last at Portobello Barracks, where be was stationed with his regiment. He was a most amiable person, and a perfect gentleman in every sense of the word, and is sincerely and deeply regretted by all who knew him, or had the pleasure of his acquaintance. The deceased gentleman was the son of Stephen Moore, Esq., of Berne, in this county. He entered the 3d Dragoon Guards on the 12th of February, 1836, obtained his lieutenancy on the 10th of July, 1837, and his captaincy on the 2611 of May, 1848. lie served with this regiment in India. On the ter mination of the war there he returned home on sick leave, and on the re-establishment of his health he ex changed into the King's Dragoons. Died, Sept. 4, at his residence, Wilton-terrace, Henry M'Manus, Eq., for many years assistant mi litary secretary for Ireland, aged 73 years. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Naval Cadet—Arthur E. Bowden to her Majesty's steam-frigate Dragon. The Dauntless steam frigate, Captain Halsted, is expected to be ready for sea io about ten days, but she will inevitably return to one of the home ports to re fit, and in all probability to have an increase of com plement. Let the Lords of the Admiralty look on the other side of the Channel and on this. The Dragon steam-frigate, Captain Giffard, is now ready for sea, at Spithead, and will sail about Wed nesday next. The Fox, 42, bearing the pendant of Commodore Lambert, is still lying at Spithead, but is expected to leave every hour for Plymouth, on her way to the East Indies, in company with the Thetis, Captain Kuper, C 8., when these two fine frigates will have a favourable opportunity of trying their respective rates of sailing. The Simooin was taken out of Portsmouth harbour by Captain Stevens, and tried along the measured mile in Stoke's Bay. She has no masts in nor stores on board, being 7 feet 2 inches by the stern. She only made seven knots, but it was no trial of speed, merely testing the engines. The Retribution steam-frigate, Captain Warder, was brought to the buoy of the King's Stairs, Ports mouth, to be swung for the adjustment of her com passes. The Furious was taken out of Portsmouth Dock, and the Elfin yacht brought in. MALTA, SEPT. 2.—The fleet has returned off port, and Sir William Parker, having once more hoisted his flag on the Firebrand steam-frigate, came into port on Thursday last, when he was saluted by the Turkish frigate Sciabi Bahri. The Firebrand was telegraphed at sea by the Medina packet, bound to Marseilles. This vessel had lost one of her anchors in a heavy gale. Her surgeon, Chapman, was, for the third time, taken ill, and put on board the fri gate for passage to Malta, where on arrival he was sent to hospital, the Firebrand putting her assistant surgeon, Mr. Wright, M.D., on board the Medina. The Terrible and Scourge steam-frigates are in port. The Superb and Powerful line-of-battle ships have been in for water and provisions, and will leave to-day. The remainder of the squadron will come in by twos for provisions ; when the whole have finished, the Admiral will leave port, dit-on, for Corfu, taking his family with him for a trip. The Turkish division, composed of the Sciabi Bahri and Mirati 'Lifer rigates, and Seragh Bahri brig, left port on Friday last, the first for Toulon, and the two last-named for England, whence the brig will proceed to the United States ; the Sultan, at the request of Captain Slade, having resolved to let his ships of war be seen in European ports. Our Board of Health has imposed a quarantine of 15 days on all arrivals from cholera-infected ports. The Merlin, from Marseilles, is thus condemned to a long quarantine, although she has a clean bill of health ! The measure is very obnoxious, and re solved on on the faith of private letters, apart from the official report of the Marseilles Board. Cholera here is much declining. Our reports yes terdsy were 14 attacks and 12 deaths. Some of the deceased had been ill ten days. In some instances, even at present, the persons attacked are carried off after an illness of a few hours.
