SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—" Call again to-morrow. I know nothing of your bill delivered. Give me the particulars of your account. I shan't pay you till I find these particulars are correct. I shan't have time to look at them for u a long time. Your charges are so exorbitant that you c an afford to wait. I neither can nor will pay " a farthing." That valuable class of m en to intrusted the agreeable task of collec tin g familiar with such and similar excuses a whendebt sa whom is it are ers of the their ill-fortune to wait on the i‘ metropolis, but it is something new to of o ie find an assem bly composed of peers, baronets, a nd members Par liament resorting to the shifting tactics of Jeremy Diddler, and exhausting in theirdifferent pretexts for non-payment every phase of shabby inconsistency. The original position taken up by the Earl of Lucan and his brother guardi ans was blu . downright, un h. ticated Pennsylva nian repudiation: The money sop is had been wasted ; the act was oppressive, and they would not pay. They were . themeansdthicfough which not intend alone the debt could be paid, and l. they to give any assistance towards its , 'dation. Some what moved, however, by the caeaaind di enified re proof of the Prime Minister,the modern Lucanians6 have determined to repudiate repudiation, with the saving clause that they have not the slightest intention of repaying. At a meeting prescified over by Lord Ballinasloe, Lord Clancarty, in the Court-house, Lucan moved, in substance, that , though ready to re payp ' olio works had been advances where value in ended in relief as could received, and such money fairly be charged against them, exP they would not strike rates in the absence of particulars of ; the Government demand. The second resolution, moved by Lord Crofton, recommend ed an investigation before Parlia ment of the amount which could with justice be de manded with due regard to the interests and circum stances of the country. The third resol ut i on , moved by Colonel Knox Gor e, ob j ects to the guardians being made the means of collecting this money at all. If any one wishes to take a lesson in the art of shuffling and paltering with a plain and honest obligation they would find it here. First, the debt is denied altoge ther ; then it is admitted that something ought to be paid, that something being just as much as those who have already given a specimen of their fairness by refusing to pay any of it may choose to consider due. Thirdly, Parliament is asked to consider the question of repayment, with a view to the circum stances and interests of the country—that is, at the instance of the Irish landowners, to enter into an inquiry whether they can afford to pay their debts honestly or no, and to apportion the exact amount of dishonesty which is essential to their pecuniary well being. Lastly, they return to their old position, and, after professing their readiness to pay, flatly refuse to put in motion the only machinery provided by law for enforcing payment. " Procrastination is," as Lord Lucan truly observes, " the thief of time ;" and it t is therefore very requisite that those who are bent upon thieving something else should be reminded speedily as possible of their own positiona anduaieus pros pects. The duty cast on the Irish Poor- 1 of making rates to repay the Government adwvances is 'm which they essentially a ministerial one. c ' ai. sterial into a now put forth is to convert t ' h r a h t e levyingmlntihe sums judicial act, and instead ad vanced, to sit in judgment of the metbod of their ex• penditure, and only allow so much n as . they, the debtors, in the plenitude of their equitable impartiality, shall consider to have been properly exp admitting the expended. This mise rable dodge for obt ainin g delay without existence of a deb t, and avoiding the infamy while e o g the advantages of repudiation, will little s av c a tyi them. An Act of Parliament cannot receive two constructions for their convenience; it was valid, peremptory, and immediate, so far as it authorised the advancement of the money of the United Kingdom for the subsistence of the miserable peasantry whom the landlords had ground down to starvation. It was of indisputable efficacy when it charged on the con solidated fund one-half of the money so advanced, and it is at least equally cogent when it demands from the Irish unions the repayment of the remainder. It can no more be allowed to them to suspend the operation of an Act of Parliament till they are satisfied of its propriety, than to set aside its provisions altogether. The former is a refusal to obey the law, and the latter is no more. We can imagine no subterfuge more degrading than this bill of particulars trick. What is the principle on which it rests ? That Ireland is bound to pay no more than she has had value re• ceived for in public works. Was it then primarily or mainly for the purpose of making public works in Ireland that this money was advanced, or were not the public works entirely secondary and subsidiary to the main object—the saving, to use Mr. Gregory's words, the Eves of the people ? Of course, it was well known when the money was voted, that it was impossible to expend it to the best advantage. Long preparation, minute surveys, careful consideration of local circumstances, would have been necessary for this, but inexorable famine would not wait, and the only choice was between giving away bread for nothing, and requiring labour in exchange for it. Thus it unavoidably happened that the labours which ought to have occupied years were crowded into a few months, and that the care and consideration which, under any other circumstances, would have been im perative, were rendered impossible. One resource, in deed, Government believed itself to have in the local know ledge and high:l:hided integrity of the Irish land lords, in %hose hands the relief of their starving coun trymen was at first reposed. It was because experi ence showed that this class could not be trusted with the distribution of public money—because the re lief so humanely voted found its way to their children, their tenants, their servants, and their pigs, instead of the starving peasantry—because they recognised every claim, except that of hunger and misfortune, and, true to their vocation, withheld charity contributed by others from men whom they would barely permit to exist by the labour of their hands, that Government was forced to adopt that plan of relief by public works, of whose defects the Irish landlords, whose misconduct called it into action, do well to remind us. We assert deliberat e l y , that if Government wer e to furnish the bill of p art iculars, and if that bill should show that the sums claimed had been expended in digging holes in the sea-shore and filling them up again, the claim of the Government against the unions would he as valid in morality as it is in law. We have fed the people, and for the whole of that payment, in strict justice, the land which ought to maintain them is liable. We are not bound to find for Ireland what we suppose Mr. Disraeli would call " the raw material" ofman i . a But e those who are only asked t o pay half what to revise the whole. Do theyd from them claim expect to s t r ik e o ff more than half ? concee them so much, and s lt . not,maet offagainst the half whic d h has been unprofitably spent the half which has been gra t u it ous l y paid.

BA.TU, CT TE . 9.--The Mayor, P. Dewdine., E s( were together with F. Allan an d W . Hunt, Esqs. yesterday engaged i u i nvest i gating an extraordinary case case of attempted poisoning. Th e pr i soner, who gave her name as Elie ihth Slater, was a very respectable looking, lady-like woman, and she was charged with ad ministering poison to her child, with intent, &c. Upo n Ulf! application of Mr. Oakley, the chief of police, who stated that a public examination would probably frus trate the ends ofjustic e, the proceedings were strictly private. We are enabled, however, to give the fol lowing particulars :—About two months since the P r i'°%er took furnished lodgings at the house of Mr. Searle, chemist and druggist, Claverton-street, Bath, 1 7 " e nting her s elf t o b e th e w if e of Mr. Slat e r, o f _std.

It has been ascertained that the prizoner is a single female of a respectable family, arid that au analysis of an artificial teat with which the infaut has usually been suckled has resulted in the discovery of some CryStOS. [The following appeared in our Third Edition of last night :—] THE GREAT EXHIBITION. Placards are posted all over the building to-day *an nouncing that to-morrow the Groat Exhibition will finally close to the public. Those, therefore, who have not interest with the Executive Committee, or who are unacquainted with an exhibitor, must make the most of to-morrow, or they will miss one of the most magnificent spectacles that the world has ever produced. It seems a pity that the Exhibition should close before the end of the month, when it would have been opened exactly six months, but there is now no chance of the present resolution being changed, and many exhibitors have already begun to make preparations for removing their property. Wednesday next is looked forward to with some amount of anxiety by several gentlemen who have contributed largely to the English department. It is anticipated that on that eventful day the Royal Commissioners will deliver a full report of their stewardship, and perhaps let out some thing as to the future fate of the edifice itself, but it is not probable that there will be anything in the shape of pageantry got up on this interesting occasion, such as was witnessed at the opening. It will no doubt be simply a mere leave-takin g between the Commis sioners and the exhibitor s , and documents which are then to be forthcoming will doubtless form the most attrac tive feature of the meeting. The visitors of to-day were composed chiefly of the middle class; but although the price of admission was half-a-crown, there were, nevertheless, large batches of the agricultual interest, and a B rest number of people having the appearance of German emigrants present. There was a good sprinkling, too, of persons attired in the military uniform of various continental states, and these, added to the variety of colours worn by the ladies, gave the tout ensemble of the interior a very brilliant aspect- It was said that two or three members of the Belgian Go vernment were amongst the visitors ; if that really were so, they must hare been as much struck with the absence of anything like a guard over the priceless objects ex hibited as with the splendid scene itself; for at the re• cent exhibition of the painting of all nations collected in Brussels, each department or chamber was closely watched by detachments from the army when the show was thrown open to the general public. Notwithstand ing that the weather to-day has been mild and congenial, the numbers returned by the police have fallen consider ably short of those of the last four days. They are as follow: Eleven o'clock ••• Twelve ...

The Voss Gazette, under date of St. Petersburgh, 28th ult., says :—" The Emperor, who left Moscow in the night of the lith inst., arrived on the afternoon of the 17th in the fortress of Robruisk, where he inspected the Poltawaque regiment of infantry. On the 19th his Majesty arrived in the fortress of Brest- Litowsk, where he was received by the Grand Dukes Nicholas and Michael ; he inspected the fortress, and visited the corps of Cadets, founded by Alexander. On the 21st the Emperor arrived at Luzh." A frightful accident has occurred on the line of railroad between St. Petersburgh and Moscow. A long train, conveying back to the former city a part of the soldiers, officers and privates who had attended the Coronation Fete in Moscow, came into collision with a train on its way from St. Petersburgh. Many persons were killed, and a still greater number wounded, but the exact loss of life had not been pub lished. Some civilians who had obtained permission to go by the military train are among those who have perished. HOLLAND. THE HAGUE, OCT. B.—From various causes, es pecially the prorogation of the Legislative Assembly, a convention has been concluded between our Go vernment and Belgium, that the treaty of the 20th of September shall not be made public prior to the debates which will take place upon it by the Cham bers of both kingdoms, nor shall the negotiations which preceded the same be yet published. It is reported that the French Government intends to make over French Guiana to th© Netherlands, in return for which the Dutch Government is to cede to France the little island of St. Eu3tace, which lies near Guadaloupe and Martinique.—Dutch Papers. LECTURE ON ~ BLOOMERISM." On Wednesday evening another lecture was de livered on this question of reform in ladies' dresses, at Miss Kelly's Theatre, Dears-street, Sobo. The audience was not, as on other evenings, overwhelm ing, but, on the contrary, was rather scant in num ber, and as usual an excess of men was to be ob served. It was a very different scene from the one in Finsbury, some nights ago, where the crowd regularly stormed and carried the doors, show ing that a rise of prices, one shilling instead of threepence, lowers very much the desire of the Bri tish public to listen to the oratory of their American sisterhood on this " rising " question. At the back of the stage, in the centre, was placed a table, bearing besides the conventional water jug, and glasses to re fresh the lecturer, a bust, which appeared to be that of her Majesty, having on her head what we presume was a laurel wreath, but, as far as appearances went, looked more like an old handkerchief tied round her august brow. On each side of the table were a row of chairs, destined far the reception of the converts of the cause, who were to sit and be stared at by an admiring audience. Half-past eight o'clock came, the lights were turned on, and the ladies entered, dressed in every variety of Bloomer costume, of all ages, and with faces of most portentous gravity, as if they were sacrificing them selves for the good of their country, but still, like heroines, were determined to go through with it. Some wore hats, some wore none; some showed but a small portion of the " pettiletes, pettiloons, pan taloons, or lower garments," all of which names we have the authority of the lecturer herself for assigning to them ; and others showed a fair modicum of the same ; some wore the upper garment made as an ordinary dress, others had a sort of jacket over all ; in fact, they had lent themselves out to ac commodate all tastes. We were most struck with the matron of the party, who seemed to suffer most from bashfulness, and was attired in sombre black. Her hat was of brigandish dimensions, and from it depended a few inches of black lace, which almost concealed her face from the inquisitive gaze of the spectators. The fair lec turer seemed struck with her appearance, for she drew pointedly the attention of the audience to her by re marking that she had come forward in the cause although of matronly years; and that although they might not admire her head gear, it was thought much of in the reign of Queen Caroline—so much for fashion. The lecturer herself was by far the best got up of the whole. Her things fitted her, and she wore them as if accustomed to them, which cannot be said of her fair disciples, who really deserve some praise for the courage they displayed in sitting to :be stared at. The lady who informed the audience that she was an American and a mother, and had come forward to advocate a change in the fashion of costume on principle, said that although she appeared before them on this subject, she had, previously to coming to England, had no intention of thus appear ing publicly before them. She had come over for a very different mission—as a delegate to the Peace Congress. She was, however, too late for it ; but another lady wh o had come over for the same reason had not been received as a delegate. She did not know whether in America this would be called acting discourteously or not, but she knew very well that if any one had come from England on a similar mission they would have been perfectly well received. She was also connected with the Ame rican press. Mrs. Bloomer had immortalised herself i b t ti ti t 1 ,_ 1 , . e . r lo ( r Irs. by bringing out what was generally supposed to be E,t r ?is a v costum e ; but instead of this it was an old one. with it, and it w revo lutions of the 20 dolls. for Weari ngn a gentleman's dress. of interference had never have been been been Bloo mer's) us e d 1 y t n h a e m P e er w ii a a s ns and lonians ; now associated would be handed down as one of the A. lady in rho States has been fined z hat she supposed was something Inwhich was spoken of there as br, :. this matter of dress an amount pencteexaercised by men that could of an old woman Why, she had hernd going to the porter would not admit Greenwich Hospital and man's hat on her head.

St t i e " h k offt hat, from America as an emissary in this c al riot -cline and get up a revolutio n—(llear) —LuieT to try London, had been requested to come forward and ein ill vacate the wearing of th e costume. She menti "- several people of note i n A mer i ca who had odnveod a cated the change, and then p rocee d ed to describe the dress. It had bean said that the dress w as not delicate. It was very much the same as that worn by the Swiss. The lower garments they wore were very much the same as those she assumed. Per haps they were not always gathered in at the ankles. But the grace and freedom of motion of the Swiss girls had always been admired.—(llear, hear.) The Polish dress was much the same. If they were not to dress in this way, why were the Catholic clergy allowed to go about in long robes, so that they could sadly be di st i ngu i s h ed f rom women. — ( Ch eers an d g ht er.) The clergy ought to take the lead in everyth -lu g that The " pantilette" had alway s been was good. form or other, among among the female sex in some gether delicate toS"le might think it was not algo as they were tirse t i. alln of these things in public, but form, it wi g h t v p Z . ng \ of them for the purpose of re also . so fur a woman, what was moral fur a man was any uuwortility i n _ . 41 . 1 ' 1 conversely. If there was valal,a100115) Well ought not to wear them. If it was only a matter of taste, and no immorality could be attached to it, she thought. that men ought to leave women to exercise their own judgment, and not to interfere. Was it thought any immorality to appear with bare arms and a low-necked dress? She did not know what would be thought in a London ball-room, as she never was in one; but in America, in her owe country, it would be thought very improper if a girl appeared otherwise. Was it thought indecent for a. girl to dance the polka with a man whom she hardly knerw ? He might throw his arms round her waist, and she might return the embrace. She really did not think there was much fastidiousness in the worl d when such things as these were allowed. After ad vocating the change on the ground that it w: is a more convenient dress for the lower classes, she said she hoped her using the term " women" so constantly was not at all offensive to them. In fact, in America they were all women—there were no ladies ; there were no lords, and consequently there was no need of ladies ; they were quite conten t to be called women. The dress would have one re commendation to the elderly, for, according to the accounts given in the papers of their last meeting, it made them look very much younger. All who were described as young misses of 14 were mothers ; and she herself, who was called 25 or 26, would be delighted to see such a return of juvenility. The men ought to be glad, for they would have to pay much less for their wives' dresses, as there would not be the soiling and draggling that now took place, and although drapers said that owing to its taking a much less quantity of material there would be a diminution of their trade, she thought the increased number of dresses would pay them. They talked of the barbarity of the Chinese compressing the feet of their daughters, but was it not a much greater violation of principle to compress the waist when full play was required for all the organs of re spiration ? Some lady had suggested that with the new dress the feet would be as much pinched in as the waist was before, in order to make them pretty and small, but she hoped that they would show that they (the ladies) possessed better sense. She then expatiated on her living models as ex amples of the different styles of the dress that might be worn, and drew particular attention to the ma tronly lady, as we have noticed above ; and made a slight digression from her subject to apologize for the treatment received by the great George Thompson in his anti-slave rambles in her country. She then returned to her theme, and repeated she had taken up the advocacy of the dress on points of principle. If she had not possessed some of the Yankee spirit, or had not been convinced of the correctness in her case of the old motto, "Be sure you are right, and then go ahead," she would not have appeared before them. She hoped, however, in future, to see more of the wo men of Great Britain, for as yet she had seen more of the men at her two lectures; at the same time she did not say she was not happy to see the men. After strongly urging the dress for the adoption of the English ladies, and giving a history of the public education in America, she concluded, and withdrew with her troop of disciples, the matron solemnly bringing up the rear, and calling down much laughter from the audience, who, however, behaved throughout the lecture most decorously.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Robert Sergeant, aged 13, and Robert Caswell, aged 16 years; were brought before Sir Peter Laurie, in the custody of John May (R 48, metropolitan police), charged, the former with having stolen from the warehouse of Mr. Hale, in Queen-street, 191. or 201. in gold and silver, the latter with having received part of the money well knowing that it had been stolen. Mr. Josiah Hale said—Robert Sergeant was an errand- boy in my employment. On Tuesday night I was called up by the police at my house in Gresham street, and informed that the warehouse was broken open. I proceeded thither with a constable, and found a policeman on duty waiting outside. 1 found on entering the premises that a drawer in my desk had been broken open, and that 191. or 201. in gold and silver had been stolen from it. I had left the ware house at half-past ten, and kept the keys in my own possession. The outer window, which looks into Queen•street, and the shutters were open. The con stable and I, after examination of the warehouse, were decidedly that the robbery must have been m somebodyo who had hidden himself, for there m was d no f b opinion mark inin of f urcible entrance. The prisoner Sergeant came the following morning, and the in spector and I questioned him, and agreed in believing that he was the thief. Inspector Mitchell —_I examined the warehouse be tween twelve and one o'clock on Tuesday night, and found a piece of candle burning in a small gallipot there. On further examination I found on the desk five other pieces of candle of the same description as that manufactured by Mr. Hale. They all smelt strongly of tobacco. On the following morning I questioned all the persons in the employment of the firm, and the boy's statement, as to where he had been since the hour of leaving business, was the most unsatisfactory, and ettbody had seen hint go. I called at the house of his aunt, with whom he residas, -and learned that all he said was false. In the boy's pocket I found some Inciters and the bowl of a tobacco pipe, which contained some tobacco dust. The pieces of candle which I found looked as if they had been car ried in the pocket. Mr. Hale let the boy go at a quarter past eight o'clock, but I sent round to the sta tions, and he was apprehended afterwards in Green wich, with Caswell, the other prisoner. There was lying upon the desk which was broken open, a piece of paper, on which appeared, in the prisoner's writ ing, the words " Remember Hackett's gang." Hackett was the celebrated house and prison breaker. I have ascertained that Caswell, who is stated by his father to be an incorrigible reprobate, has been the constant companion of Sergeant. Joh n MaY (It 48)—In consequence of information which I received from the Bow-lane station, I went to a coffee-shop in Greenwich and found the two pri soners in bed together. They told me at once their real names. I asked them what had become of the money one of them had taken from his employer s . They replied that they knew nothing about it, and that they had money of their own in their possession. Upon Caswell I found two sovereigns, a half sove reign, and two 'pence. He said he could prove it to be his money, for he had, while in a boat in the Thames, picked up a gentleman who had tumbled overboard from a steamer, and who gave him two sovereigns for the service, and he told me the other prisoner had give him a sovereign out of some money which the boy had accidentallyfound, as well as a suit of clothes. Sergeant then told me, pointing to his trou sers, that I would find in them some of the money he had found. I turned out of his pockets four sove reigns, six half-sovereigns, and Bs. 10d. in silver, and threepence halfpenny in copper. I found also in the room two new suits of clothes and the bill for them. Sergeant, in ans w er t o m y ques ti on , w h e th er h e wished to account for the possession of the money, replied th a t h e h ad found a bag containing sovereigns on the steps of his employer's door, while sitting ' there on Tuesd ay morning, and he also' said that he bad paid for cloth es f ur the other prisoner and himself. Sir P. LAURIE asked. the prisoners whether it was their wish to say anything? Sergeant—Yes. I went to work on Tuesday morning as usual, and there being nobody at the - warehouse I sat down on the steps, and I felt something hurt me, and upon look ing down I found it was a bag containing sovereigns, so I picked it up and put it in my pocket. Sir P. LAURIE—And you had it when you want to your work ? Sergeant—Yes. Sir P. LAURIE—Did you tell Mr. Hale about it ? Sergeant—No ; I did not say anything about it to him at all. Caswell—l was sitting at the door with my mother on Wednesday, when this boy called me, and said he had found some money, and that he would not go home with it, as he knew his aunt would not let him have it ; so we both went to Greenwich by the train that night, and he bought a suit of clothes for each of us, and gave me: a sovereign. As for the two other sovereigns, I picked up a gentleman out of the river, who would have gone down, but that I was near in boat which I had taken at Rotherhithe.—(Laughter.) Sir P. LAURIE—What sort of a gentleman ? Cas well—A young one. He turned into a tavern there, and gave me the money, and I came away. Sir P. LAurt.ic—l shall commit you both for trial at the Central Criminal Court, and you may produce the gentleman there who rewarded you fur your kindness. SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 11, 1851. CLERKEN WELL. Mary Ann Pontall, aged 13 years, was placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged by Mr. Evan Jarrett, of No. 1, Mary-street, Arlington-square, New North-road, Islington, with having set fire to his house. It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Jarrett, the wife of the prosecutor, that on Thursday morning last her husband and her brother-in-law left home, the former to transact some business at the Exhibition, and the latter in the City. He being a stranger in London, the prisoner accompanied him a short dis tance to show him the way, and she returned at about ten o'clock. Shortly after this witness had occasion to go to her bedroom on the first floor, when she per ceived a strong smell of something burning, and opened the windows. She went down stairs, and at about twelve o'clock was again attracted by an in creased smell of fire. On proceeding up stairs she found the place full of smoke, and on examining the bed found large spots of oil upon it, and it was burn ing. Witness called to the prisoner, who said perhaps somebody was up the chimney, but on looking there was nobody there. She then said there had been a fire in Downham-road ; and again, that Mr. M'Gill, a next door neighbour, had been burning some old boots, shoes, and other rubbish ; all of which, upon inquiry, turned out to be false. After making the place, as she thought, all safe, she went down stairs and remained there until about four o'clock in the afternoon, when she was nearly suffocated by smoke. On again proceeding to the bedroom she found the bed, bedstead, and bed furniture all in flames. She made an alarm and ,called 'on the prisoner to fetch some water, but she stood by indifferently and ren dered no assistance, but laughed. Witness endea voured to put out the flames herself, and commenced throwing the things out of the window, and screamed out, which brought some neighbours, who put out the flames. Air. TYRWIIITT remanded the prisoner for a week. MARYLEBOIVE. A determined-looking man, who gave his name Retry Round, was brought up handcuffed, in the custody of Mr. Superintendent Collard, of the Great Western Railway Company's police, and Inspector Locksley, of the D divisio❑ of the metropolitan force, on the charge of uttering a medal in imitation of a sovereign, with intent to defraud the railway company alluded to. Mr. Roberts, a clerk at the Paddington station, on being sworn, said—Last evening, just before half-pa s t eight o'clock, the prisoner came to me and asked for a third class ticket for Southall, at the same time put ting down a piece in imitation of a sovereign. I asked him what he had given to me, to which he replied, " Why, a sovereign." I took it up and marked it with our stamping machine, and retaining possession of the spurious piece, as I considered I had a right to do, I desired him to quit the premises, but as he re fused to do so, and was very noisy, I felt myself bound to give him in charge. Mr. Collard, addressing Mr. Long, said that the prisoner had, since his apprehension for uttering the medal, been identified by parties who were now in attendance and who bad been robbed by him on th e Queen's highway, under circumstances of a very daring and atrocious nature, in connexion with a man named William Harris, who had been examined be fore Mr. Paynter at liammersmith, and stood re manded from that court until Thursday next. Mr. LONG —Are you prepared to go into charges of highway robbery against the prisoner ? Mr. Collard —Quite so, your Worship. Mr. LONG—Very well ; as the other man whom you imagine you will be able to show has been con nected with the prisoner before me in these highway robberies has been examined at Hammersmith, let the prisoner be taken at once there. Ile was again secured by handcuffs, which had been removed from him while he was placed at the bar, and was taken to the court above mentioned in a cab. HAMMERSMITH. Henry Round, ag►ed 20, was charged before Mr. Paynter with being concerned with William Harris (yesterday remanded) in shooting and wounding Sergeant Earthy. It appeared that the prisoner was apprehended under rather singular circumstances, be having gone to the Paddington station of the Great Western Rail way for the purpose of taking a place in a train that called at Southall, and in payment for a ticket ten dered an imitation sovereign (a brass Exhibition medal), for which he was at once taken into custody by the railway police as an utterer of base coin. On searching him to see if he bad any more in his posses sion, they found a loaded pistol upon him, which Mr. Collard, superintendent of the railway police, at once recognised as the fellow pistol to that found on Harris the day before, he having been in court when Harris was examined. Both pistols were produced, and were found to be a pair. Sergeant Lees, of the railway police, produced two slugs, two sovereigns, and some cards found on the prisoner. Police-constable William Bailey, T division, now identified the prisoner as the other man who had effected his escape during the struggle, as he had stated the day before in his evidence. Police-constable Dowling, who was placed in the same cell at the Hammersmith station, to see that ho did not commit violence on himself, said the prisoner asked how the man who was shot was, saying that it was his own fault in knocking his hand, which caused the pistol to go off, 'end that he had no idea of shoot ing him, although he would never let an officer touch him. He further said that, after he ran away, he met a gentleman on the road, and robbed him of several sovereigns; that he had also robbed a gentleman a few days before, and had bought a new suit of clothes. From that account it would appear he was the man who actually fired the shot. The witneses in the two cases of highway robbery were present in court during the examination, but Mr. PAYNTEU decided on remanding the prisoner to ascertain the result of the wounds. The prisoner, who said nothing, was then remanded until Thursday next. GREENWICH. John 211‘Lea, collecting clerk at the Sutton station of the London, Brighton, and South-Coast Railway Company, was brought befure Mr. Traill for final examination, charged with embezzling several sums of money, amounting to about 351., the moneys of the directors of that company. The evidence of Nesbit, a railway station-clerk, to gether with Miller and three other persons, includ ing Sergeant Horsfall, of the 1 division of police, 4roved that the prisoner had withheld, during a short period, several items, amounting to 851. which ought to have been placed in bags daily, forwarded to the London terminus, and there deposited in a case iron bound, and from thence taken by the banker's col lector and given credit for in the account kept with the railway company—such collector's duty being to collect the bags from each pay station. Thia the pri soner had neglected to forward during . nearly three weeks, when Nesbit, his fellow clerk, discovered the discrepancy. The charge being proved, the prisoner was com mitted to Maidstone Gaol for trial. MARGATE ROYAL SEA-BATHING INFIRMARY. On Thursday the usual half-yearly meeting of tho supporters of this charity was hold at the Loudon Tavern, R. Pugh, Esq., in the chair. The Secretary read the report, from which it a pp eare d that the following letter was received from Col. Phipps by tho secretary:— " Osborne, Aug. 4, 1851. " Sir,—l have received her Majesty's commands to forward you the enclosed cheque for 501., as a donation towards the Royal Sea Bathing Infirmary. lam at the saute time commanded to remark, that the amount received in donations and subscriptions in 1830 is not very much more than half that of 1849, and of which the amount paid in salaries, poundage, and petty charges over that of last year, is larger than the whole sum contributed in donations and subscriptions, and that this does not appear a satisfactory state of the finances of the charity. " I have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, " C. B. PHIPPS." Alderman Wire and B. Drew, Esqs., had been added to the direction. The medical board considered that it would not be advisable to continue the infirmary open during the winter months, the sea air not being suitable to scrofulous diseases, and the building being in no way adapted for invalids during the cold season. The appeal and the dinner in behalf of the charity realised 2,1201. The proceedings terminated wills a vote of thanks to the chairman, THE LONDON GAZETTE, Oct 10. WHITE lIA LL, OCT. 8, 1851.
