QUEEN V. NORM= REALM. In this case, in which the defend an t was f oun d gu ilty, at the Central Criminal Court, of attempting to obtain good 4 under false pretences, from John Baddeley and others, The COURT affirmed the conviction. QUEEN v. DAWSON. The prisoner, Frederick Augustus Dawson, vras in dicted and ccnvicted at the Central Criminal Court for e r4ery. It appeared at the trial that the prisoner uttered a docu ment which purported to be a genuine one, for the pur pose of obtaining the sum of 9i. from John Live. The document was a bill-head of the ordinary kind, showing on the face of it that John Lave was indebted to Frances Dawson in two bushels of apples of the value of 95., and there was appended to the end of it a note to the following effect, purporting to be written by Mrs. Frances Daw son :—" Sir,—l hope you will excuse ire asking for such a trifle, but I have received a lawyer's letter this morn log, and unless I make up a certain sum of money by one o'clock an action will be brought against me, and I am, therefore, obliged to hunt after every shilling." This paper was described in one count of the indictment as an order, and in two others as a warrant, and the question reserved for the opinion of this court was, whether that was a proper description of such written paper under the statute. Mr. RIP, who was heard in support of the appeal and against the conviction, contended that the document was neither a warrant nor an order, but a simple request, which the party might or might not obey. The statute seemed to contemplate an offence of this kind, for it mentioned a warrant-order or request; and the meaning of penal statutes ought to be strictly construed according to the terms employed. In using the words warrant and order, the Legislature no doubt intended that they should not travel beyond the ordina r y mean i ng w hi c h i n c ommercial d eal i ngs were attach e d to suc h t erms . The necessary ingredient of a warrant or order was this:—lt must be drawn by a party who had authority to do so, and addressed to a p ar ty w h o was b oun d to obey it. Now, the party to whom this document was given was not bound to pay the amount, for it might so happen that he kept a running account with Mrs. Daw son, or had three months' credit. Another distinguishing quality of a warrant was, that the party obeying it, had a sufficient indemnity of the consequences of his act, because if a civil action was afterwards brought to reco ver the amount, the production of the document would be a sufficient defence to the action. In the present case, however, the document, supposing it was a genuine one, would not show that the request it contained bad been complied with, and therefore would not be a good de fence against the claim, without some other additional evidence that the money had been paid. On these grounds he contended that the indictment was bad under the statute, and that the conviction ought to be quashed. The LORD- CHIEF JusncE—l think, if this were a genuine order, and the party paid the money, he would afterwards have a good defence to any further claim should he happen :o be in possession of the document. I am of opinion, therefore, that this is clearly a warrant or order, and that the conviction ought to be affirmed. Conviction affirmed accordingly. QUEEN V. It. C. BIRD AND SARAH BIRD. The prisoners in this case were convicted of assault at the last Exeter assizes, having previously been acquitted on the higher charge of murder, and an appeal was sub sequently made to this Court to quash the conviction, but the judges before whom the appeal was argued did not agree in opinion, and no decision was given. Their Lordships now intimated that the case would be heard before all the judges on Saturday the 25th of Janntry. FRANCE. There was a grand reception at the Elysee on Thursday eveninz, and never ',had the salons of the President of the Republic been so crowded ; upwards of 5,000 persons presented their respects to him in the course of ithe evening.—M. Da. Lamartine and M. Horace Vernet were present when the debate in the Assembly was resumed yesterday. M. Baroche as cended the tribude, for the purpose of replying to the attacks made upon the Government by MM. Jules de Leysterie and Berryer. Having given explana tions on the subject of the constitution of the Society of the 10th December, and of the riots at Havre, M. B troche commented on the declarations of M. Berryer in the following terms : " M. Berryer stated that the Cabinet had dissolved the majority —no, it was M. Berryer and his friends, who by openly proclaiming their aspirations and hopes had broken up that majority, formed, at a moment of danger, against - the common enemy. General Changer flier had become, unknowingly, he believed, and in spite of himself, the hope of those parties. ( You adopted that measure too late,' exclaimed; General Leflo. `lt iiniever too late to adopt a good measure,' " replied the Minister.) " M. Baroche then arrived at the journeys to Clare mont and Wiesbaden. Ho conceived that men who owed so much to a fallen monarch should not abandon him in misfortune. The President of the Republic felt it him self, Red told his Ambassador that, although he was the representative of the Republic in London, he found it quite natural that he should visit in of action en august family. who had admitted him into their inti macy. The President had likewise completely ap proved the conduct of a distinguished member (M. Thiers) of the Assembly, who had repaired to Clare ment ta preeeet his homages to the august exiles. That member had told him (SI. Baroche), ' I hope I may hale an opportunity to explain that journey. I went to Claremont to salute a king I had dearly loved. After his death, I seated myself between the Duchess of Or leans and the Count of Paris. There was no King of France nor King of the French at Claremont. If inch a title had been given in my presence I should have re tired, for I never will recognize a title that is not sanc tioned by the laws of my country.' (` He said an ab surdity,' exclaimed M. de Mornsy.—Agitatior.) At Wicsbeelen the case was widely different. There was a Sovereign who, to use, the expression of M. Berryer, bore in him the principle of public sovereignty as the heir of a long series of royal ancrstors, and who could only return to France as her king. The Legitimatists had stone broken up Viet majority. The Cabinet, however, disdained and did not tear manifestations having for their object the restoration of either the elder or younger branch of the Bourbons. The Government had remained on the ground of the Constitution, well knowing that the country desired no royal or imperial restoration. The people were tired of those revolutions which de stroyed each other and created freth enemies. He knew not whet form of government Providence reserved to France, but he trusted, with the President of the Re publie, that neither passion, eurpriae, nor viehnce, should diepuse of the fate of this great nation. There was no salvation but in the maintenance of the republican form, which least divided the country, and he hoped thet the majority world frankly adopt the policy of the Message of the 12th of November.—(Loud applzuse.) " General Chengarnier next ruse and said, that when he was invested with the supreme:command of the army of Paris five parties divided the country—the Legitimatists, Orleanishs, the hlederate Republicans, the Demagogues, and men desirous of establishing an Imperial dictatorship without either glory or genius. He had favoured none of those parties, nor been the instrument of any conspi racy or conspirator. Ho had proved himself the de fender of the laws and order ; the promoter of that tranquillity indispensable to commercial transactions, and he prided in having been accessary to the ro.establish ment of the peace which the capital and the whole of F, (ince now enjoyed. He had, he repeated, favoured no faction nor conspirators, and he was certain that the Mi nisters would not deny that his presence at the Tuileries had been useful to them. His sword had been replaced in its scabbard, but was not broken, and would ever be found at the service of his country, " After some explanation s given by M. de Mornay, re lative to his interruption, M. Thiers ascended the tribune. o M. Thiers said, that he reluctantly appeared at the - tribune on such an occasion, and proclaimed with the deepest chagrin his secession from the ranks of the sup porters of the Cabinet. Ever since his election he had voted, first for M. Lamartine, afterwards for General Cavaignac, and finally for the Government of M. Louis Napoleon. He had cordially co-operated in every mea sure calculated to strengthen his authority, and assist him in the accomplishment of his mission, with the firm determination the moment he put forward any preten sions to oppose them. He then explained the part he had taken in the election of the 10th December. Had the Moderate party adopted another candidate the current of the masses favouring Louis Napoleon, it would have been divided, and General Cavaignac raised to the Presidency. After his elevation the President bad done him the honour of consulting him. M. Thiers had recommended him to c a ll into his councils men who had not been long in office, because they would be ex posed to the attacks of parti es . T he President having long resided out of France was not aware of her wants. Ho was frightened at the ardour of the public mind, and he wished to occupy it by some enterprise or war abroad, or some great popular creation, calculated to seduce the imagination of the masses. M. Thiess combated the first, as one of those immenee faults committed, und e r more excusable eircumstancee, by Napoleon. He advised him to do everything to re-establish security, and he now claimed for the Legislative as well as the Executive power a share in the prosperity which the country enjoyed. The dismissal of the Cabinet of M. Odilon Barrot, by the message of the 31st of October, 1849, proved that if the Bonapar:ist family had become familiar with R e p u b_ licon idea:, it had not become so a ith those of the He prenntaf ve Government. The majority, which had supprted that Cabinet, had not seceded from its sue ces o r s; nod yet, under such a system, it was indispen sable that an Administration should possess the confi dence of the Assembly. M. Thiers and his friends had drawn no unfavourable comparisons, and continued the staunch supporters of the Government. Some agitation having manifested itself, in consequence of the Socialist elecions of Paris, the President had again done bim the honour of consulting him. M. Thiers had recom mended a modification in the Electoral Law, and a C 6112.. mi tee had been appointed to amend it. The Government wished the Committee to assume the responsibility of the presentation of the law, (" You are in errror," obierved M. Baroche, " th e Goverment was anxious to present, the law itself') M. Thiers denied it, at the sn ll . B tinge that he consented to there the responsibility of a law which heel teetered security to the R alie n feared that it:, premulnatene w ou ld ha ,,,:• b u ee - a - i he signal of an insurrection. This appreheution, h resoled, thanks to the energetic attitudeoovifevti7ier, a w r as cot raja and of its intrepid chief, and also to the prudence m ofo the demagogical party, who renounced attacking public order by arm:. A few days afterwards, the Ministry pre sented the notation Bill. He frankly admitted that he had granted it with reluctance, because it tended to per vert the institution of the Presidency. The majority voted the dotation, and thus proved that it was dis posed to subscribe to any sacrifice for the sake of union, fir had they rejected it it would have destroyed the good harmony between the Legislative and Executive Powers, and divided the great party of order. He and his friends, he repeated, had given the President sound advice; they refused to accept portfolios, but invariably supported those who were in possession of them. M. Thiers then related the circumstances of his journey to Claremont, in the terms mentioned by M. Baroche. He had gone to visit on a dying bed a Monarch whose policy he had combated, at the same time that he cherished his person. He could not suffer him to die without paying him a last homage. He had apprised the President of his in tention, who left him the liberty of his affections. The Count do Paris was called before him by no other title, for it was the sole title conferred upon him by France. Here M. Segur d'Aguesseau interrupted M. Thiers, and asked what he thought of the Pilgrimage to Wies baden.—(Laughter.) M. Thicrs—" I leave you and the Ministers the task of dissolving the majority."—(Applause on the Right, and cries- of " Order, order.") M. Thiers then proceeded to examine the Prociv-verbaux of the Permanent Com mittee, and expressed deep affliction, nay indignation, at the cries of " Viva l'Empercur!" uttered in the Plain of Satory, whether they were encouraged or not by the Government. It reminded him of the era of the Caesars, when the legions proclaimed the Emperors. It was po sitive that General Neumayer had been sup e rseded in his command because he prohibited those cries. A Mi nisterial journal said, alluding to General Changarnier, "The Sphinx does not speak." He was right. He should not speak, but act. When he heard of the dis missal of General Neumayer he disapproved the act, published his order of the day of the 2d Nov., and on that day signed his own dismissal.—(Left speaking.) has presented to the library of the pensioners of the Royal Military Hospital, Chelsea, .-n interesting set of books entitled " Hog's instructor." This gift must be considered as demonstrating the feelings of the Premier as regards the continuance of that establishment, over which he so ably presided some years since, and in which he greatly corrected many irregularities, which will always creep into institutions of the age Chelsea Hospital had then reached. His Lordship always took the warmest interest in the welfare of the re treat for the old and worn-out soldier of the British army, notwithstanding the many foul-mouthed at tacks made upon it by parties who are ever eager to bring public departments into odium at the expense of truth. EMBARKATION or Taoors.—The ships La Belle Alliance left the River on the 11th, and the Lady Flora on the 16th of January, for Portsmouth, to embark the 30'h Regiment for Corfu, and the ship Java left the River on the 16th instant, for Cork, to convey the 47th Regiment to Corfu. CAVALRY REGIMENTS IN IRELAND.—The follow ing Regiments of Cavalry stationed in Ireland, are first on the roster for Great Britain, viz :-6 h (Inni.killing) Dragoons, 17th Lancers, 4th (Queen's Own) Light Dragoons, 7th (Queen's) Hussars, 6th Dragoon Guards, Ist (King's) Dragoon Guards, 12th Royal Lancers, and 17th Lancers. DEPOTS IN IRELAND.—The following depots of infantry regiments stationed in Ireland are first on the roster for Great Britain, viz.:-6th Royal, 24th, 73d, 59th, 41st, 49th, and 47th. A DESERTER SHOT.—A soldier of a detachment of the 38th Regiment, stationed at Sidney, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, was shot by Lieutenant Green when attempting to desert. THE FEVER AT ST. THOMAS'S.—We announced last week the death of Lieutenant Mooney, of the Scorpion, surveying vessel, at St. Thomas's. He caught fever ashore. Of the ninety soldiers garri soning St. Thomas's, eighty-seven were laid up at one time with the same malady. Latest accounts state that the fever was abating. SCARCITY OF BOYS IN THE SERVICE.—In COnSe • quence of the restrictions which have lately been put by the Admiralty on the entry of boys into the navy, and the immediate promotion of boys as vacancies occur on foreign stations, the number of boys are so scarce at the different ports, that every ship fitting out is short of her complement. SOLDIERS BECOMING SETTLERS.—Between 200 and 300 men have been allowed by Major-General Pitt, commanding the troops in New Zealand, to purchase their discharge. This has been done partly with the view of a reduction of the army, as well as to induce respectable men to become settlers. That so many men are able to effect their discharge by purchase is a striking instance of the improvement in the morals of our troops, and we hope to see it carried out with spirit amongst our soldiers in all the colonial possessions of the British Crown. THE SUN, LONDoN, SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 18, 1851. GERMAN Y. It is an accepted fact that a full understanding has been come to by Austria and Prussia as to the basis of the new executive power for Germany. The Voss's Zeitung of this morning contains the following article : " The differences said to have arisen in Dresden, are, we believe, arranged. With respect to the constitution of the supreme executive organ, an understanding has been effected, and thus the secondary States will be pre vented from continuing to play the part they acted throughout the last summer with some degree of success. It is already known that Austria favoured the scheme of Bavaria—that of having a third Power in the Executive beside Austria and Prussia—a third element that was to represent the rest of Germany. Bavaria thought to secure the influence of this third elenient, and thus to smuggle itself into the council of the two great States. Perhaps Austria had, in Bregenz, promised to support this scheme, which would be damaging to Prussia, but could not injure itself , for Prussia in the Bund having only a German territory would have been on an equal footing with Bavaria, whilst Austria entering it with its large non-German States would remain the great Power that it is. Austria would be the prepon deraring Power in Germany, which Bavaria and Prussia would necessarily have to follow. Prussia opposed this plan, and was fully supported in its opposition by the small States, which are ready to accept the supremacy of Prussia, but will not recognize Bavaria as a great Power. Prussia proposed either that an Executive should be organized containinz a Dualism (itself and Austria) as iu the Provisional Commission of the Bund, or that all the German States should take a share in it. " After a long and warm debate, it is understood that the Dualism is rejected, as well as the Executive with a third element, and the system chosen by which the Ex ecutive power will be shared by all the States. It will consist of a Directory and a Supreme Executive, in which each State, according to its influence and ability of performing fixed Federative obligations will have a voice or a share of a voice. Te details cannot yet be given, as some modifications may yet be made in them; but thus much may be stated with certainty, that the Directory will include eleven votes, cf whic Prussia and Austria will have two each, and that to enable it to act with effect against external and internal enemies, it will have an army of 135,000 men at its disposition, to maintain which all the states will be bound, and each state will preserve its voice in the Directory only by the performance of the obligation thus imposed on it." The Prince of Prussia will return to Coblentz im mediately after the 18th. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. After the submission of the Lieutenancy-General of the Duchies of Schleswig-Holstein to the federal Commissioners, a sort of diplomatic congress was opened at Hamburgh, consisting of those Commis sioners, of a representative of the Lieutenancy- General, of the Government of Lauenburg, and of the two Danish Commissioners, for the definitive ar rangement of the affairs of the Duchies. " The two representatives of Dennmark (says the I:dependance of Brussels) raised pretensions to which the federal commissioners did not seem disposed to subscribe, and grave difficulties were foreseen. Denmark, in the first place, protests against the occupation of Rends burg by the Hoolstein troops. On this point, bow ever, it is thought that satisfaction will be given to it." The Danish troops bad left their positions on the frontier of Schleswig and Holstein, to return to those of Dannervirke. A letter from Copenhagen of the 12th mentions the departure of the Danish Minister of Finances for Dresden and Vienna on a diplomatic mission. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCHESTER.-FRIDAY. LIVERPOOL STEEPLECHASE.—AII the horses quoted have been backed during the week, although the weights have not yet been publizhed.

RACING FIXTURES FOR 1851. The following are the present fixtures as nearly as we can aecertain:— Lincoln DREADFUL SHIPWRECK. GALLANT CONDUCT OF THE COAST GUARD AND FISHERMEN NEAR THE LAND'S END. Early oa Saturday morning, the 11th inst., the brig New Commercial, of Whitby, 250 tons burden, Sander son master, bound from Liverpool to the Spanish main, in a thick fog and strong gale from the S.S.W., struck upon a ledge of rocks between the Great and Little Bris son, two high rocks rising between 60 and 70 feet above high water mark, about one mile off the bluff headland of Cape Cornwall, and four miles northward from the Land's End. The sea running very high the vessel im mediately went to pieces, and the crew, nine men with one woman, the wife of the master, got on the ledge. They were discovered from the shore as soon as day broke, but no assistance could then be possibly rendered them. In this perilous condition the poor creatures remained until about nine o'clock, when they were all washed off together by one tremendous wave and hurled into the boiling deep. Seven out of the ten sank at once into a watery grave. Of the remaining three, one, a mulatto, contrived to get on a portion of the floating wreck, and after having teen beaten about for some hours in imminent peril of being every instant swallowed up by the breakers, he managed with a remarkable coolness and presence of mind, by means of a plank which be used as a paddle, and a piece of canvass which served him for a sail, with the assistance of the strong tides, to keep clear of the broken waters. . Whilst this poor fellow was thus struggling for life, with all the resources which his ingenuity could suggest to him, amid the anxious expectations of the people who witnessed his attempt from the shore, whose lofty cliffs were now crowded by upwards of 2,000 spectators, five fishermen belonging to Sennen, a small fishing cove close to the Land's Eud, after much debate among themseves, determined, with that bold and resolute spirit for which these men are distinguished, to launch their boat (the Grace) through the breakers, in which they happily succeeded, and eventually, after encountering great difficulty and risk, they rescued the poor mulatto from his perilous situation. The other two, the master and his wife, when they were carried off the ledge, were washed upon the Little Brisson 11,,ck, which rises in a peaked head, and is the resort of numerous sea fowl. The master first gained a footing upon the rock, and upon looking around him saw his wife struggling in the waves, but sufficiently near to enable him to stretch out his hand and pull her in. While the Sennen fishermen were occupied in rescuing the mulatto, her Majesty's revenue cutter Sylvia, com manded by Mr. Forward, was seen gallantly working round the Land's End, having been ordered to the spot by Captain Davies, R.N., the late and still acting in• specting-commander of the coast-guard of this district. Captain Davies himself and several of his officers took up their stations upon the lofty promontory of Cape Cornwall, overlooking the Brissone. On reaching the point Mr. Forward hunched his boat, and attempted, with a crew of four men, to get near the rock; but the attempt was fruitless, anu it was only with great difficulty that ho regained the cutter, to the great relief of Captain Davies and the numerous spectators upon the cliffs, who rejoiced to perceive that though success did not attend his daring exploit, still he himself and his gallant crew at least were safe. It was now growing late, and nothing more could be attempted in the way of rescue for the day, so Mr. Forward hoisted his colours and hove-to his craft, to encourage the poor sufferers, who were now to be left to spend the wretched night without food or shelter, exposed to the winds and rain upon this desolate rock, amid the wide waste of waters, and to assure them that they had still a friend, who, with God's blessing, would stand by and not forsake them. On Sunday morning the wind happily drew a little to the south-east, which cawel the sea to abate; all hands were immediately on the alert, and it great excitement prevailed among the people along the coast on Saturday, it was not at all lessened on this day. Hundreds began to assemble as soon as it was light, and the number greatly increased es the day were on. Towards the middle of the day the sun shone ont, and, by light ing up the magnificent scenery of the coast all round, added greatly to the feverish interest of the scene. At one o'clock four boats were seen approaching from the Sennen Cove—three manned by fishermen and one by the coast-guard ; at the same time Captain Davies arrived, having embarked in a preventive boat at a small cove named Pendeen, about three miles N.E. of the spot, with four preventive men and one miner, taking rockets with him. The cutter's boat also was manned by Mr. Forward, so that six boats were speedily on the spot. By this time the scene had become one of the most exciting description, and the crowds of people upon the cliffs could not have numbered less than 5,000 or 6,000 ; and, as each boat arrived at the spot, the cheers of this vast multitude, awakening all the echoes of this cavernous coast, added not a little to the ex citement. The sea still ran so high that no boat could venture within 100 yaTds of the rock. The rockets which Captain Davies had taken with him in the preventive boat had never been tried here before, even from the shore, and we believe never elsewhere from a boat. By the printed instructions the persons firing should be at least fifty feet in the rear to be free from danger. One of the men, a gunner, volunteered to fire them, although he had never seen one used before; but Cap tain Davies, with a generous and disinterested consider ation, would not suffer any of his crew to incur a risk which he himself did not share ; so, alter making his arrangements, and having placed his crew in one of the Sennen boats, he remained alone, and with his own hand discharged the rocket. He was inveloped in an instant in a sheet of flame from the back fire. Happily, how ever he sustained no injury, but unfortunately the line which reached the reek fell upon a sharp ledge, which cut the rope so that the end of it slipped off into the sea. It is impossible to describe the disappointment expe rienced by the people upon the cliffs and in the boats at this unfavourable result of such a daring experiment. After a short delay, however, another rocket was prepared, which Captain Davies again himself dis charged, and this time the cord fell on the rock close by the man, to the great joy and delight of the as sembled multitude, whose minds had been so long oscil lating between hope and fear. As the cord fell on the rock the woman was observed to raise her clasped hands in apparent thankfulness. At this critical moment the sun, which had again hidden himself behind the damp dark clouds, shone forth once more with increased brilliancy, and whilst it seemed to speak hope to the bosoms of the anxious spectators, the man on the rock was seen to fasten the line around the waist of bis wile, and to encourage her to take the fearful leap, whilst she lingered and hesi tated to jump into the foaming waters. After some little time, however, his persuasions prevailed. They took an affecting leave of each other, and, amid the breathless expectutions of all, she made the awful plunge from a height of about twelve feet. At this moment three im mense waves broke in rapid succession, perilling the safety of all. For a time, indeed, the boats were en tirely hidden from the view of the spectators, and the loud cry broke forth from thousands of voices, " They are gone!" The females in wirticular among the crowd were so horror-stricken that they actually turned away their beads from the fearful spectacle before them, and shrieked aloud. But soon again the boats were seen above the swelling waves, and the lofty cliffs once more rung with approv ing cheers. The cord was drawn with great judgment, and after about three minutes the poor woman was taken into one of the beats; but the blows from the waves were more than her Exhaust ai frame could bear. No atten tion that could be shown her was spared. The men took off their own clothes to cover her, and used every effort to restore her. She breathed, but by the time the boat reached the cove life had fled. After the master had persuaded his wife to leave him he fastenvl the cord around his own waist, and was Irawn, greatly exhausted, into cne of the other boat. We are often domed to wiluess fearful shipwrecks on this expo,ed coast; but no disaster of the kind has excited such intense interest or sympathy in the neighbourhood, as the one we have now been relating, for a long time. The peculiarly trying situa ion of the surviving sufferers themselves, and the bold attempts made for their rescue have thrown an in t,,res: around the Brissor,s which will not soon die away. Captain Davies had been promoted to tf,e rank of post captain only a few days before this shipwreck took place. lie has seen a great deal of service, and mani festel no ordinary zeal on several occasions during the time he has held the appointment of inspecting com manier here. Ho has also received six medals from the Royal Humane Society and Shipwrecked Mariners' Society for services of a similar kind performed else where. The writer of this has not the pleasure of being persmally acquainted with him, but he should rejoice to hear that so brave and able an officer has not been lost sight, of by the Admiralty, in the retirement into which he is now withdrawing with the good wishes of all Lis friends. As to Mr. Forward, whose conduct is spoken of by his commander as beyond all praise, something might and ought to be dote for him by the service, as well as for the intrepid crew who shared the danger; and there ex ists a strong fe,iling here that the parties, more especi ally/the fishermen who risked their property ai well as their lives on this intensely interesting occasion, should not be allowed to go unrewarded. It is impossible to speak too highly of the conduct of those who were employed on this occasion All who wiaiessed it agreed in declaring that a more gallant, humane, and praiseworthy act has seldom been recorded. And every person who has the slightest acquaintance with the bold character of this coast, and the terrific seas which prevail here at:this stormy season, must be well aware that such an attempt required no common courage, and furnished no ordinary proof that true courage and genuine humanity are always found in the same bosom. Mr. Pearse, the active and indefatigable agent of Lloyd's, at Penzance, and also agent of the Shipwrecked Mariners' Society, was cn the spot at the earliest possible moment, and, as usual, showed the utmost anxiety to render every assistance. ASSAULT ON MR. MIALL. The legal proceedings against the Rev. Messrs. Cole and Over for the assault committed on Mr. Miall, at the Papal Aggression meeting at Islington, have been abandoned on the receipt of the following apologies, and their payment of the costs incurred:- 39, Highbury-place, Jan. 4, 1851. Ei, ar Sir,—l have already twice apologized to Mr. rSi Ali for the purely unintentional fall which he met with at the Islington meeting. I Certainly used sufficient force to remove Mi. Miall, sideways, about a yard along the platform; but I had not the slightest idea of the proximity of the steps to the platform (two, I believe, in number) down which ho fell. For whatever degree or manner of force I used, as primarily causing that fall, I have (as I have said) already twice apologized—once to Mr. Mien before the whole meeting and again to Mr. Miall, personally and studiously, after the same meeting; which latter apology Mr. Miall, at the time, accepted. Nor have I ever uttered one word since to detract from the sincerity and full intent of those apologies. As a Christian person, and a gentleman (terms I pub licly used), I can, of course, have no objection whatever to repeat sueh apology a third time in writing. I do not deny the right which Mr. Miall had, as a parishioner, to move any legal amendment; and I ac knowledge that the Chairman had not declared Mr. Miall's amendment to be irrelevant. I beg on this ground, also, to apologize to Mr. Miall, and to express my regret that I should, through inexperience in such matters, have violated any recognizd usage of public meetings, which time has established. I am, dear Sir, yours faithfully, To W. 11. Ashurst, Esq., &a. &c. HENRY COLE. Islington, Jan. 6,18 M. Dear Sir,—l certainly used sufficient force, at the meeting of the parishioners of Islington, on the Bth No vember, to remove Mr. Miall sideways along the plat form, but 1 was net aware of the proximity of the steps down which he fell. For whatever force I used for causing that tall, I now apologize to him, as the Rev. Mr. Cole did at the time. I do not deny the tight which Mr. Midi had, as a parishioner, to move any legal amendment; and I acknowledge that the Chairman had not declared Mr. Miall's emencment to be irrelevant. I beg on this ground also to apologize to Mr. Minn, and to express my regret that I should have violated any recognized usage of public meetings. I remain, dear Sir, very respectfully yours, To W. H. Ashurst, Esq. EDWARD OVER. ROYAL AR IILLERY. Woonwres, JAN. 17.—The whole of the Royal Horse Artillery, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Bell, and six field batteries, consisting of one of four 12- pounder guns, two of four 9-pounder guns each, and three c f four light 6-pounder guns each, under Lieute nant-Colonel Anderson, assembled on the common at half-past ten o'clock to-day, in heavy marching order, and were drawn up in line along the road separating the barrack field from the common, for tho inspection of the commandant. Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Down man, C.B. and K.C.U., arrived on the ground at a quarter before eleven o'clock, accompanied by Brigade- Major Bingham and Captain Tylden, Deputy Assistant Quuarterma,tn-General of Artillery, when the whole of the troops and batteries marched past at a walk, and then proceeded past the Royal Military Academy to the Shooter's-hill-road, and returned by th 4 road lead ing past the veterinary stables at the west end of the common. The Commandant and his staff rode across the common, and inspected them again as they en tered the south-west gate. The landing of the com panies from the Mediterranean stations, Gihrahar, and Jamaica, took place to-day. At ten o'clock six prisoners, recently belonging to line regiments at Corfu, and now under sentence of transportation, were sent on shore from the Resistance troop-ship, and placed under the es cort of six gunners of the Royal Artillery, in charge of a sergeant, to deliver them at Milbank Penitentiary. The greater part of the forenoon was occupied in taking the luggage on shore, and the tide being most suitable for taking the men on shore, they disembarked at two o'clock, P.M., from the Resistance and the Apollo, and after their knapsacks were all inspected by Custom- house searchers, which occupied about half an hour, they marched up to the garrison, headed by the band of the regiment. The officers who came home in the Resist ance were Captain Dunlop, Captain Gardner, Second Captain Broughton, Lieutenants Noble, Andrews, Orr, Bruce, Anketell, and Heberden. 122 invalids from the two vessels, with 46 women and a number of children, were put on board one of the Woolwich Company's boats for conveyance to Chatham in the c o u rs e o f th e afternoon, the men being from line regiments.

The demand fur wheat is inactive, and prices somewhat easier. There i,3 a good sale for the finest qualities of barley at improving prices.

The finer descriptions of both old and new wheat readily obtained late rates, but other sorts are extremely difficult to quit, although offering at slightly reduced rates. Barley, moderate supply; floe malting, which is scarce, firmly maintained late rates; but grinding and distilling sold freely at barely the prices of last week. Beans and peas, short supply and firm. Oats, large supply, with a dull sale at slightly reduced terms. LIYERPOOL, JAN. 17.—At this day's market there was a thin attendance of the town and country trade, w h ose transactions were limited to the supply of imme diate wants. Wheat and American flour, not being so freely offered as of late, realised the lull prices of Tues day, in the sales made,' but French was a shade easier to buy. Oats and oatmeal met with a slow retail sale at late rates. Barley, beans, and peas were neglected, and nominally without change. Indian corn was hardly inquired for, and above 30s per quarter could not be made for prime American yellow. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, JAN. 17.—There is really nothing doing in our raw sugar market, and prices are consequently quite nominal. The refined market is equally dull.
