rbtrt Wbitton DENMARK. General Krogh, the Danish C o mmander-in-Chief, bas issued the following order of the day to his army. It is dated the 13th : " The enemy yesterday made an attack on our left wing, between Missunde and Eckernforde, where a part of the Ist Brigade was stationed. Their force -being superior, Colonel von Krabbe retired upon Missunde, where a sharp conflict took place, which lasted for two hours. The enemy retreated, but was followed and attacked by our troop;, who drove them back to their former position, and took 140 prisoners. In stating this for the information of the army, I tbank Colonel Von Krabbe and the troops who fought so honourably under his command, for their good conduct and the courage they displayed during the conflict." GERMAN Y. The Ko!ner Zeitting has a telegraphic dispatch, dated ()Asset, Thursday, STt . . 19, stating that an ordinance had been published on that day, transferring the seat of Goverment to Wilhelmsbad. The cause of this is ascribed in the document to the opposition of the chief magistrates, and further measures are announced for the regulation of the Government. A caution is given against any further opposition, and all the requisite measures for the monarchical form of Government are authorized. THE ARMY AND NAVY. (From the United Service Gazette of this day.) RECRUITING FOR THE GRENADIER GUARDS.—In consequence of the regiment being nearly 100 under the strength, ten additional recruiting parties will be sent out on the ht of next month. PENINSULAR MEDAL.—The Board of General Officers at Whitehall have now completed their la bours in respect to applicants claiming medals for their service in the Peninsula, and the several muster and prize rolls, Gazettes, &c., upon which the claims have been examined, have been returned to their re spective departments. THE ARier IN CANADA.—The Government are desirous that discharged soldiers should become settlers in the colonies, and about 200 men of regi ments stationed in Canada have quitted that service during the last month, and remain in that colony. This arrangement will materially assist the plan for forming a large body of pensioners into local com panies, under the command of staff officers, the men not being actually disabled but unfit for active service. NEW TROUSERS FOR THE INFA.INTRY.—M9jOr- General his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, Commanding the Dublin district, accompanied by his staff, made an inspection of the 40th Regiment, at Great Ship-street Barracks, on Monday, to see the new pattern of grey trousers which were worn on the occasion. WATERLOO ThoraxEs.—lt was decided some time since to make an addition to the military trophies which have been deposited in the Royal Military C Alege, Chelsea, by sending from Woolwich Arsenal some brass guns to be placed in the grounds of that establi>hinent, which were captured from the French at the Battle of Waterloo. The carriages, &c., are not completed, and we understand the trophies will arrive at Chelsea Hospital in the course of the ensuing week. Captain Halleett, of the Grenaiier Guards, has been appointed Senior Aide-de-Camp to Lieutenant- General Sir William Gomm, K.C.8., Commander in-Chief in India. By this appointment a vacancy has taken place in the Adjutancy of the Ist battalion, which Captain iltlkett held. REWARD FOR LONG SERVICE.—T wo Or three Gazettes back, we announced the retirement of a major of the line by the sale of his commission. The position of this officer, after thirty-five years' service, is a severe reflection on the miserable half-pay of the service. After paying highly for his lieutenancy and his company, he reached the rank of major, where he stood fast, and now, in his retirement, gets more in the shape of interest for the price of his commis sion, invested in the foreign funds, than he received as the half-pay of his rank ! MANNING TUE NAVY.—We regret to find that the Trafalgar, 120 ; Albion, 90 ; anti Vengeance, 84 ; at Sheerness, Devonport, and Portsmouth, do not pick up their men as fast as we could wish. Seamen do not like these advanced commissioned ships; the Albion still wants about 70. blue j tekets, and the Trafalgar and Vengeance hive not yet completed their meagre half or third complements. MORTALITY ON W3ARD HER MAJESTY'S SHIP TWEED AT Rio.—We are informed that the mortality on board her it jesty's ship Tweed, 18, Commander Lord F. Russell, by offioial returns received at the Admiralty, was only 18 deaths, inatead of 32, as pre viously stated. Comae \NDEft or GREENWICH lIO3PITAL.—We are enabled to state that the A itnir,ilty have conferred the vacant appointment at; Greenwich Hospital on Cominander Thomas Colby (1814). Commander Colby is one of the Seniors, as he is one of the most distinguished Commanders on the List. He was at the battle of Camperdown ; in the Centurion, when she beat off Linois's squadron ; was a Lieutenant in Calder's action; at the defence of Gaeta; at the forcing the Dardanelles and destruction of the Turk ish squadron ; in the Egyptian campaign of 1807 ; and was Senior Lieutenant of the Prince of Wales at the reduction of Genoa, in 1814. The Admiralty deserve credit for b<stowing this appointment on an officer of such good service. DESTINATION OF HER MAJESTY'S STEAM FRIGATE DRIGON.—This steam-frigate, Captain Giffae(l, - Is under orders at Spithead to proceed direct to Malta, and join Sir W. Parker's fleet, calling off Devonplrt en route. We believe she will not start for a day or two, in consequence of some domestic bereavement that the Captain has sustained. _ COME AT LAST.—Her Majesty's store ship Hercules, Master Commander Fulton, has at length made her appearance at Spithead ; she has been about a couple of months on the road from Malta. Three voyages a 3ear to Malta and back seem to be the limits of her service. She is to come to the river to land her stores, &c. Moue ADMIRALTY ECONOMY.—It is well known that, in spite of all remonstrance, the Admiralty has persisted in bringing forward the Portland, 50, as the new flag-ship for the Pacific, or rather to relieve an 84 gau ship. Whether the authorities at Devonport have deceived their Lordships by representing her as mare forward and requiring less expense than any other ship, in fitting for the Pacific Flag, we know not; but already his there been upwards of 2,000/. of the public money squandered on her, and daily is there some frightful defect discovered. Ooe day last week her capstan was found unfit for use, and subsequently most of her kelson and the entire of her false keel were found completely rotten. These will all have to be removed and replaced at an enormous expenditure; and, after all, it will be found that she is completely unsuited for her work. We cannot heliethinking that the Lords of the Admiralty see that they have been deceived with respect to the ship, and are too much ashamed of themselves now to sub stitute another ship. AMUSEMENTS AND COURTESIES AT THE CAPE.— We extract the following from a private letter from the Cape :—" Cape Town is rendered a gay place by Lady Smith's entertainments; her Ladyship gives a ball every Friday evening. The officers of her Ma jesty's ship Pantaloon, with Lieutenant Crowder, of her Majesty's steamer Dee, gave a splendid ball the first week in July ; it was a grand affair, and cost at least 250/." THE AFFAIR OF THE CORMORANT WITH TUE Brtaztmax FORT.—We are enabled to state that the conduct of Commander Schomberg, of the Cormorant steam-sloop, on the coast of Brazil, in capturing the four slavers, and avenging the insult to the British flag by demolishing the fort that fired at him, has been not only approved by the Admiral on the station a n d the Admiralty at home, but has been j ust ified by the authorities at Rio. THE FISHERY. MOUNT'S BAY.—The Fortune seine has taken 200 Mids., and the Success, 200. The (hiving boats have taken during the week about 300 hbds. ST. IVE.i.—The boats on the mackerel fishery during the past week have taken from 100 to 500 mackerel per night, which sold at 134. and 14s. per hundred of six score, for the home market. The two seines shot last week, as noticed in last week's Gazette, both missed, it being c ons id ere d th at t h ey were a l l f p rats . Nothing has been done i n th e pil c h ar d fi s h ery tither by the seines or drift boats. Since that period the drift fish now under shipment have not been sold, and are about to be ventured. They are calculated to he about 550 or 560 hhds. PORTLOE.—On the 13th Mr. J. Blarney's seine brought in about 14 hlack, and Mr. P. Dunstan's 15 hhd.. Oa Saturday M. Luke Williams's seine brought in 30 hhd3. ; all fine fish. Thi strong wind has prevented the drift boats from doing much. The seines are laid up for the present, and the men paid off. 1.400 E--The seines are put out of pay far the pre sent, having (lute nothing. for some time. The drift boats on Monday and Tuesday nights caught from 1 to 5,000 ty-er hoV, which soil at about Ile. per thousand.—floyal Cornwall Gazette. THE RIVER FISHING : 4 . (From the Inverness Courier.) TnE NESS.-0i Saturday, the concluding day of )the season, the river, from the head pools downwards, was perseveringly angled, but with a singular want of success. In the evening Sir J. R. Carnac and party. drew the nets through their pool& and succeeded _ion - capturing fifty fish, one of which was a noble sal ntopr`lieigbing 231115. The party celebrated the glom) 0 , season with s pi r i t , an d d anc i ng on the ' river 464 \:> to real H ig hl and music was kept up fur some • ,r 1 ('r~.~~~(~, •~ THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 21, 1850. time. The total number of salmon and grilse caught by the party with the rod this season has been fifty nine, of which 15 were killed by Sir John, 25 by Mr. Wilkinson, and 20 by Major Richards The Ness Angling Club mustered in considerable strength on their range of pools during the day, but with no better success. In the evening the nets were got out, and casts were made in the various pools. Nine salmon and grilse and twenty-one fine trout were taken, and the finer fish were voted by acclamation in compli mentary presents to the president and other members of the club, who, though taking much interest in it, had not themselves fished the river, or whose success had not been great. After sweeping the river, the members assembled on the island, and beside a roar ing fire, with music, with refreshments, with dancing, and with fireworks, duly closed the season. Mr. D. A. Nicol is the king of the club this season, having captured the largest number of fish. The season, however, has been singularly bad. The gentlemen now assembling from all parts of the north for the great meeting of this week, report that the fishings everywhere have been very bud— the fish appear to h tve deserted the once favourite streams. Mr. Legh, at Flowerdale, who is much attached to sea sports, has had some excellent sea-fishin g in Gair loch in the evenings after returning from the moors, on which the grouse are scarce. On one evening lately he caught 96 flat fish, 18 cods and codling., 24 haddocks, and 4 gurnets ; and on another evening 52 flat fish, 19 haddocks, 9 codlings, &c. A c,rrespondent, who has charge of some of the best fishing rivers of the north, supplies the follow ing remark on the season now over : " The poorest season within remembrance is now closed ; and it would have been better for salmon fishers in general had they quietly paid their rents and given the whole rivers in Scotland (and I may say England and Ireland) a jubilee; for the whole fisheries have been a loss of more than the rents of the season, and to have given them a jubilee would therefore have been a saving, of so much to the tenants. We have heard various causes suggested for the scarcity of the salmon last season. Some attribute it to - the high or low state of the rivers —some to the number of seals and porpoises that have this season haunted the mouths of firths and estuaries ; even some supposed that from the low state of the rivers, and the difficulty the fish had iu getting into them, that most of them were killed or injured by sea-lice. We are aware that the size of rivers at various seasons has the effect of encouraging or discouraging salmon in their progress to the rivers, and that numbers of them are destroyed in firths and estuaries by seals and por poises, but it is as yet unproved whether or not the sea-lice give the salmon the least disturbance. At all events, the whole of these suggestions are nothing new. They are of yearly occurrence, either at one season or another ; and yet during all these inflic tions we have seen very good salmon seasons. But we have a memorable and a certain reason to give that accounts for the scarcity of the grilses in parti cular last season, and that is, the effects of the tre mendous floods in January, 1849. These floods hap pened just at the close of the spawning season, and before the spawning beds had settled into a solid state, and the result was, that almost all the spawn of that season was carried away, and scattered throughout the rivers, or thrown ashore on the dry land, to such a degree that we could not expect to have a good fishing this season. It is well known that the spawn of the winter 1848- 49 would have bean the salmon fry in the rivers in summer 1849, and the smolts and grilses of 1850 ; therefore, we must, conclude to a certainty, th a t th ese floods, and these alone, have been the ruin of the sal mon fishing in 1850. " Since the spate on the 19th of August, the angling has been fair on the northern rivers. On Inver and Kirkaig, one, two, and three salmon have fallen to the share of each rod per day. The famed Laxford has not done so well. Shin has given four or five a day. Ephemera' was the most successful angler, having killed eight salmon and three grilse in one day. Brora has also afforded some sport. Dr. Bell proved king there, having killed five in one day ; but as the spawning appears to be early this season, part of the fish killed lately have been very foul, and full of spawn." NOTES FROM THE FORESTS.—Mr. Pryor, Strath vaich, has lately shot a stag. Mr. Jones, Auchintoul, has sent in one head. A head has also been received from Coignafearn, the stag having been shot by 11. Elwes, Esq. Prom .N9var a head has been sent in, the stag brought down by Sir George Palmer. Mr. 'Mackenzie has sent two stags and one hind's head, two stags and two hinds having been shot by a party of gentlemen at Ord. 'Another stag was shot on that occasion by Captain Baring, but be escaped just as the Captain was laying hold of him. Several other stags were seen in the woods besides those killed. Lord Malmesbury and Lord Edward Thynne, on the Bth, brought down each a fine stag, and Lord Edward has since killed a noble stag having nine points 2} feet long, and the same betwixt the antlers. Lord Canning killed a stag, a hind, and a roe, in one day. At Achnacarry there has been little sport at grouse shooting, owing to disease among the birds and the late frosts in May, which carried off numbers. On the 6th Lord Milmesbury and Lard Eddisbury killed, on Auchnssaul hill, 22f brace of grouse and two snipe=. Mr. thrris, in Ulenkiag, on the same day, killed 6 brace and 8 snipes, and on the 10th 9 brace of partridges, 3 ducks, 2 snipes, 9 ptarmigan, &c. LORD BROUGEIAIII. (From the Kendal Mercury.) On Monday afternoon, one of the richest scenes ever wi'nessed in the northern counties, took place about three o'clock, in the shape of a desperate struggle in the river Eatuont, near St. Ninian's Church, and not far from the Giant's Caves, in the parishes of Brougham and Edenhall, between eight or ten members or friends of the Egmont and Eden Angling Association, and about an equal number of netters, supposed to be in the employ of Lord Brougham. Here we must remark that the aforesaid angling association was formed about eighteen months ago. Its object is to prevent the wholesale destruction of trout by illegal netting in the aforesaid rivers; it is supported principally by gentlemen resident in the neighbourhood—keen anglers—and watchers are regularly employed to carry out its objects. The society found little diffi culty in dealing with the poor fellows who were in the habit of making a living by netting ; these, if unable to pay the fine, were unceremoniously banded over to the tender mercies of the governor of Carlisle gaol; but in the course of the last and present autumn, the so ciety began to fear that they would have to contend with another invader of their prerogatives—that invader no less a personage than Lord Brougham and Vaux, ex-Chancellor of England. If m en employed by L or d B roug h am, or who said they were employed by him, were allowed to fish for his Lord ship with an illegal net, then, of course, every other person —no matter how poor—had an equal right to 'do the same, provided he could secure the sanction of the 'landowners. Consequently the society must either tackle Lord Brougham or become a nullity. The former course was resolved upon , and about nine o'clock on Monday morning eight or ten men belonging to the society, with two of Sir George Musgrave's gamekeepers, secreted themselves in some furze bushes, on the Cumberland side of the river Egmont, near the caves of Isis Perlis, which are remarkable for their distinctness of echo. Shortly after three Lord Brougham's men, amongst whom was old John Robson, the Vulcan of Earnont bridge, proceeded down the other side of the river to have a draw ; and after them came two carriages, con taing Lord Brougham, the Marquis of Douro, Mr. William Brougham, Lady Brougham, Lady Mallet, Mrs. William Brougham and children. The car riages drew up and his Lordship and party de scended and took their stand on the bank of the river. The aiog t men o d r t a h w e , n w p u h t e h i n t h t h e e w i r a n t, c e h t , e a r a n , d w w e h r o e j h u a s d t b a d g i nio ambush for upwards of six hours, ran down the Cumberland bank of the river. "Wh2?t, business have you here ?" said one of them , addressing the netters. " Fishing for Lord 13r l i a t m—fishing for Lord Brougham," said old Jo e h ug th o i bso n . The netters were then ordered to cease a e r unholy craft, and mandate which they quit the river immediately, entirely disregarded. Toestruggle themilocotraho menu-el, by one of the watchers water and seizing the cord which s j u u p m p p o i r e te g d t an insult which old John repaid by givin g rattle un ler the ear. Another of the watchers i t el hen 3 jumped in and seized the net; but old John, who had his wits about him, very promptly cut the cord, a n d the party on the Brougham (Westmoreland) bank of the river were putting the net out as fast as possible, when Dick Jameson sprang over the heads of the other two watchers and seized it. A regular rush was then made into the water—Jackson Mounsey malting n g a splashree co like the launching of a vessel—and the s menced. We shall here give John de Penrith's ver sionpm- of the story ; and here we must remark that John always claims for himself the sole credit of every great and important capture; for being bailiff of the waters, he can bear no rival near him. Well, says "I went up to his Lordship, with the Act of Parliament in my baud, and I said, my Lord, .I suppose because you are a Lord, you think that you have,a right to fish in these rivers ; but, my Lord, you are wrong; I will show you that the mesh of your net is illegal, and if you will study the Solway Act, as I have done, you will find that what I say is correct, and I would not like to lead your Lordship into an error." " What," said my lord, "do you come here to lay down the law to me ? Get away you filth ! " Such is John's story. In the mean time Dick Jameson had hold of the net in the middle of the river. Dick was a trump card ; for, although a stentorian voice from the opposite bank was sounded iu savage accents, and in A tone of ferociou execration, "Pull d—n you, pull! the blackguards, the poachers, are going with the ret ; pull, pull, pull ! D—n you, you scoundrel, at your peril, you touch that net. Pull, pull !" Still Dick held his grasp, and shouted to his companions, " Come on, come on ; never mind that old fool. Take hold of the net ; we must have it. Hold fast. Get hold of the rope ! D—n you Robson, keep off with that knife; we want no ripping here." At this juncture in splashed a number more of the watchers, and John de Penrith, brushing into the deepest of the fray, waved a cudgel, the insignia of his office, and shouted, while the stones were flying like hail, " Seize, man, seize ! Cut and seize under the Solway Act !" and John, suiting the action to the word, got hold of the net, and shouted "A knife, a knife !" In the meantime Jackson Mounsey and old John Robson were struggling in the turbid river like two ferocious alligators. Now Jackson downed his anta gonist, and anon he rose again like a game old cock ; then agsin a splash was heard like the falling of Round Down Cliff, as poor old John was tumbled over 'Jackson's buttock into the lumb ; and the ladies on the shore, in accents almost inaudible, sighed " Poor old man — oh dear, oh dear!" and the tender hearts of the chil • dren yearned, and they clung to their parents•with tears in their eyes, crying, " Poor old John, is he dead, papa ? Mamma, is old John drowned ? We shall get no more fish, shall we, mamma ? Oh dear, are these men savages ?" Then a sound like thunder again awaked the voice of echo in the Caves of Isis Parlis, and that voice cried, as in a paroxysm of fury, "D—n you, you great black elephant, you are a d—d coward ; let the old man get up !" and John de Penrith stuck to the net, shouting " Knives, gentlemen! Cut and seize ! Slash away the net, under the Solway Act!" and the voice of echo was supposed to whisper from the den of Isis Perlis,' " D—n it, Brougham, lets go in. No, no, Douro, that won't do." At this moment in sprang two or three more of the watchers with knives in their hands. The net was immediately cut, and about eight yards of it carried to the Cumberland side of the water ; and the man who held it lifted his hands, swang it and shouted, "This will be a lesson for the great cosmo polite. But old John Robson followed the captured portion of the net to the opposite shore ; and when he found that a recapture was impossible, he threw up his hat, and challenged the best man amongst them to single combat. " Bravo," reverberated the caves of Isis Perlis ; and here, for the present, the curtain drops. THE ELECTOR OF HESSE. Imagine a portly, square-built man, on the other side of 40, with regular features, a sinister counte nance, and a bearing which completely accords with his usual dress—a general's uniform—and you have the Elector before you. The moral aspect of this man it is difficult to present, for his actions are a long succession of contradictions, which are only referable to two common categories—boundless egotism, and an equally unlimited contempt of his fellow-men. He believes in no truth or honesty under the sun. In his subjects he sees so many presumptuous subjects, .whom he must make feel his power' upon every opportunity, in order to hold them in check. Ile hates the democrats, since they will not admit that such a sovereign as he can really rule by the "grace of God ;" he hates the constitutionalists because they would limit his princely prerogative ; he bates the orthodox in church and state, because he regards the former as hypocrites, and the latter require payment for their servile patriotism. Formerly the military , life was his hobby, and still he finds his highest grati fication in the pomp of the parade ground ; but, since he has convinced himself. that whenever the alternative is presented to the army to overturn either him or the constitution, the soldiers will declare to the last min for the constitution, he has mistrusted his troops, and lost no opportunity of showing his hatred to the officers who do not understand that their commissions pledge them to become the blind instruments of his arbitrary -power. His most venerable example is the Emperor Nicholas, who banished to Siberia a cavalry officer whose spur fell off on parade. Thanks to Providence, the sphere of the Elector's power is very circumscribed, but within it he omits no opportunity of acting out a despotic nature. Take an example:—Colonel von B—, an officer universally respected, had erected an elegant summer residence near to one of the gates of Cassel, and was accustomed to spend an hour or two each day in his flower garden. One day he was carefully watering a bed of favourite plants, when he was surprised by the Elector, who was riding out for an airing. The latter reined up his horse, and called the Colonel. " What do I see, Sir ; does such an em ployment become an officer of the staff ? A watering can, indeed ! You would do well, Sir, to hold your uniform in more honour for the future." Thus stuttered his most gracious Majesty, with a voice anything but agreeable ; and eight days afterwards Colonel von B. was removed far from his house and flowers, with one consolation, however, that he was also far from his petty oppressor. Similar was the case of another officer high in the civil service, who had just built a house, and when about to move into it, was ordered to leave Cassel, for no other reason than that it was known he had counted much upon enjoying his in tended new residence. Since these occurrences it has become a bye-word among the officers of h ith services, "If you would be removed from Cassel, build a house, and furnish it comfortably." Several officers have removed from Cassel, because they were too intimate with some of the liberals there ; others, however, for a very different reason— for the sacrifices they had made fur their sovereign in try ing moments ; fur it is one of the characteristics of the Elector that he holds it to be degrading to acknow ledge a debt of gratitude to any one. As he will be influenced by nu one, he will entrust to no man his confidence. Even those officials who are LaAi-ding life and honour in his service stand not an inch nearer to his heart than the rest of the world. It would, for example, be a mistake to imagine that such persons as Ilassenpflug and his associates are trusted by the Prince. tie upholds them because they are his most ready instruments, and are willing to do anything for a consideration. lle knows well enough that llassenpflug's patriotism and fidelity do not transcend the value of the salary he draws ; he knows that that man would be the first to betray him :in the hour of extremity ; but he finds a charm in dealing with men whose virtue nothing can revolt. lle treats Ilassenpflug with the same superciliousness which the latter exhibits to those be neath him; but the more dislike the puople manifest towards the minister, the more dues his master de light to heap outward honours upon him.—Cologne Gazette.

Dated the 19th day of Septcml SINGULAR DEATH OF THE QUEEN OF TRUMPS IN A RAILWAY TRAIN.—Mr. Ilornby has written to inform us that his mare Queen of Trumps was destroyed in the horse-box coming up from Wallingford station, on Thursday night. A cart horse had been put into the next compartment of the box and not properly secured, and on the arrival of the train at the Paddington station yesterday morning, on opening the horse-box, it was found that the horse had by some means got into the mare's compartment and was standing on her body, the poor animal being quite dead. NOVEL. EXPERIMENT.-0a Saturday morning last a mare in foal, belonging to William Chambers, jun., Esq. was electrified at the S9utt. Wales Pottery, Llanelly. Not being able to put the animal in the room where the machine was placed for operating upon her, she was placed outside, near the doorway, and was brought int') contact with the in strument by means of long and remarkably slight brass chains.

GUILDHALL. Nathan Fox, of 10, Londonhouse-yard, St. Paul's, and Francis John George Taton, of 16, Garlick-hill, stewards of the United Loyal Britons Benefit Society, appeared before Sir George Carroll, in answer to a summons obtained against them by Thomas Kilving ton, complaining that they did improperly and un justly expel him from the said society, and requiring them to show cause why he should not be reinstated as a member. Mr. Wontner attended for the complainant, and Mr. Humphrys for the defendants. Mr. Wontner, in opening the case, briefly stated that it was one that came within the meaning of the Fa iendly Societies Act, and that complainant became a member of the society in 1827, and had punctually paid up all his subscriptions until the 27th of last June, when he by accident omitted to pay at the ae pointed hour, and his name was, in accordance with the rules, expunged from the society's books. The money was offered the same night that the meeting took place for receiving subscriptions, but it being past the hour the secretary declined to receive it. It wits also tendered to the stewards on the following day, and refused by them, and they soon after apprised Mr. Kilvington that he was no longer a member. One of the regulations of the society stipulated that not more than seventy-one members should be admitted into the society, and that when the number should be reduced to five, the sur plus funds, amounting.to about 1,7001., were to be divided between them. That, he believed, was the real cause of the society refusing to re-admit him. Several technical objections were taken to the evi dence of Mr. Kilvington, but they were overruled by Sir George Carroll, who observed that objections of that nature would not tend favourably towards the point in question. Thomas Kilvington said he lived at 20, Little St. Thomas the Apostle, and was in the employ of Messrs. Laurie, Holyland and Co, of Watling-street. He admitted having been called on by the society to pay the amount of 1/. Oa. 7d. on the night of the 27th of June. The society was established for the purpose of defraying the funeral expenses of any of the members or their families who might die, and of affording some temporary relief to the widows and orphans of deceased members. He was occupied at work till about 11 o'clock on Thursday night, the 27th of June, for his employers, and consequently was unable to attend the meeting. He, however, tendered the money the same evening to the secretary, and the following morning at nine o'clock to the stewards, but it was declined by all these parties. He wrote a letter which the stewards said they would place before the committee at the next quarterly meeting, and let him know the result. He waited for some time without receiving any communication ; and then, when he applied to the secretary, he was informed that his name had been erased from the books as a defaulter, and that he was no longer a member. He had often paid up the subscriptions of absent members to save them from being expelled the society, and he expected some one would have done the same for him. He had paid 60/. into the society during the many years he had been a member, and had never drawn a single farthing, either on occount of death in his family, or by de claring himself upon the sick list. There were twenty-seven members at present in the society, all of whom, with the exeeption of himself, he believed had received relief in one shape or another from the funds of the society. Several of the present members from time to time had become defaulters, and had been reinstated either by interest with the committee, or by claiming the alderman's interference. Alderman CHALLIS said it would be a very hard case for a man, after he had been a member for so many years, and had punctually paid up all subscrip tions, to be suddenly excluded from the benefits of the society, merely because he had been unavoidably detained from attending the meeting for paying sub scriptions. Mr. Humphrys said that, in calling upon the Al derman to decide according to the regulations laid down for the government of the society, he was only acting to the letter of his instructions. He therefore relied'upen the sixth rule, wherein it was distinctly stated that " if any member shall neglect to pay up his quarterly subscription on the day appointed for receiving the same according to the rules of the society, his name shall be expunged from the book, and himself excluded from all benefits to be derived from the funds of the said society." Sir GEORGE CARROLL said he thought it had been clearly shown that there was no neglect in the non payment of the subscription, and therefore the com plainant's case did not come within the bearing of that rule. It would have been sufficient to inflict a small fine instead of turning the man out after having received so much of his money, without his having derived any benefit whatever from it. He would, therefore, under all the circumstances, order com plainant to pay a fine of 10s. for being a defaulter, and direct that he be re-installed as a member of the society on paying up all arrears. BU W-STREET. A cabowner complained that since the new instrue tions had been issued by the Commissioners of Police, cabdrivers were summoned by the police-constables most indiscriminately, and that if they only waited a moment in the street with their vehicles, for the pur pose of drawing up in the ranks, that was called an obstruction. Cabowners paid large sums yearly for their licence, and the returns were very small, in comparison with the duty paid. lie paid upwards of 7001. yearly for duty alone, and if his cabdrivers were summoned in this manner they would not be able to pay their expenses. Mr. Superintendent Pearse, of the F division, said there were more cab-stands in this district than in any other. They had been altered, and new ranks formed, and the constables were very strict because they had orders to be so. Their attention was more particularly pointed to this duty, as hackney car riages were daily increasing, and if the cabdrivers were not compelled to obey the regulations, the streets would be literally bl oc k e d up. rliC'hSavivdo be the m e ans of the said, if if those regulations were c b cabdrivers r eanfeneedr'it leaving th e wor k . Al rea d y some re spectablest r of the best hands had resigned their licence sooner than put up with the present regulations. Mr. JARDINE said the evil rested with cabowners in running so many more cabs than w ere n e c e ssary. .1h had no doubt that in the next session of Parlia ment a special Act would be passed by the Legisl4- ture restricting the number of hackney carriages, which had been wanted for s ome ti me pas t. Th e public were daily crying out against the nuisance, and if one cabman was hailed, there were others run ning after the same fare. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Five-and-twenty omnibus and cab summonses were heard before Mr. Hardwick yesterday. Last week the sitting magistrate heard and decided between sixty and seventy summonses of the same sort. The trifling, and in some cases doubtful character of some of the imputed offences, namely, stopping longer than neces sary to set down or take up passengers, and plying for hire in the streets, induced Mr. Hardwick, when a case of stopping three minutes by a Hampstead omnibus at the usual booking place was brought for ward, to recommend the police not to take notice of such petty cases, but to bring some of the larger and more decided offences only to the court. The enor mous number of summonses of this sort which were weekly brought there, threw a great deal of additional business on the court, and therefore it was necessary , to see that cases were not brought forward to the in jury and inconvenienee of the public. The police intimated that they had received orders from the Commissioners to summon without limita tion or discrimination, and that was the reason they had brought so many cases to the court. MARYLEBONE. Walter Blake and Jeremiah Stanshans, the former 17, and the latter 1.5 years of age, were placed at the bar before Mr. Long, on the charge of having stolen a large quantity of silver plate, the property of Ed ward Broughton, Esq., of 6, St. James's-terrace, St. John's-wood. Jeffrey, e 255 S, said that on the previous afternoon, at fu o'clock, h e me t th e prisoners as they were four coming from the terrace alluded to, and he saw Stan sham give a silver spoon to Blake, who threw it away. They went on, and when at a distance of about twenty yards, Blake dropped a number of spoons and forks. He and the other prisoner then made off as fast as they could upon fi n di n g that their movements had been watched, and they were pursued by witness, who called out loudly " Stop thief!" After a hard chase, he captured one of the prisoners, and a brother constable the other. Holloway, 338 S , deposed that he saw something fall from Blake when he had him in custody. He picked up, near the spot where he captured him, two dessert forks, and two other forks were brought to him by some childr en . Thomas Sewers s tated that he saw the prisoners make their egress f rom 6, St. James's-terrace, each holding tightly the,front of his coat, as if anxious to conceal something which did not belong to him. They both -?copped plate, which witness picked up an:l took with him to the station house when the prisoners were charged with the robbery. The property, consisting of spoons, forks, &c., was produced by the police, and identified by Mr. Broughton's servant. It had been stolen from the kitchen table. The prisoners were, as stated by Lockerby of the S division, well known thieves, and Inspector Baker requested a remand, being of opinion that other cases would be brought against them. The prisoners stand committed for trial upon the charge of robbery at Mr. Broughton's, but will be brought up again next Thursday. SOUTHWAK. John Woodby, a hawker, wan ß placed at the bar before Mr. Combe, charged with maliciously cutting the throat of a mare called " Jenny Lind," the pro perty of Joseph Harris, of Bond-street, Borough. road. The complahiant stated that he and the prisoner followed the same line of business, that of hawking goods for sale ; and that about three weeks ago, he (complainant) purchased a horse and cart of him, for which he paid at the time of the transaction. Since then, however, he had been informed that the prisoner regretted the bargain, on account of his having been subsequently offered a larger sum for the horse than he received for it, and he was heard to declare that he would serve out complainant before long. About seven o'clock that morning complainant went to the stable, leading out of the Borough-road, and was shocked on finding that the animal's thro at had been cut, and that it was in the agonies of death. He im mediately procured the assistance of a veterinary surgeon, who pronounced that the act, which was done with a very sharp instrument, must have only recently been committed. The complainant added that from subsequent inquiries, he had strong grounds for suspecting the prisoner to be the man who had mutilated the poor animal in the way described, and he accordingly gave him into custody. In the complainant's last examination by Mr. Binns, he said that he was aware the prisoner had "Jenny Lind" for two years before he sold her to bitn. Mr. binns—Then "Jenny Lind" was long enough in his possession for him to have formed an attach ment for her, and it is improbable that he would have gone to the stable where she was and cut her throat. A boy named John Webb was called, and he stated that a little after six o'clock that morning, as he was going to his work, he passed the complainant's stable, and saw the prisoner standing at the gate. Witness knew the prisoner previously, and he could no: be mistaken. There were very few persons about at the time ; the gate, however, leading into the stable was shut. In reply to Mr. ComnE, it was stated that the pri soner lived in Herbert's-buildings, Waterloo•road, and although the stable which contained the poor ani mal was in a public thoroughfare, still that it was very little frequented, and that the prisoner could have had no business down there, particularly at that time of the morning. Policeman 463 A stated that on being informed of the fact of the animal's throat being cut, and that sus picion attached to the prisoner, he went to his house between seven and eight o'clock that morning, and found him in bed. He (policeman) asked him if he knew what he was come about, and he said that he did., and his wife, who was present, exclaimed, " but my husband was not there." The prisoner after wards said to his wife, " Why, what a fool you were to tell the policeman that I was not there, for you know that I was." He added afterwards that he heard of the horse's throat being cut from the milk man who served them at an early hour the same morning with milk. The policeman added that he examined the prisoner's house, and found knives there, but none with blood upon them • that he also ex amined his clothes, but found nothing to indicate that he had been engaged in an act such as that described. Mr. Binns contended that there was no evidence to prove that the prisoner had perpetrated the cruel act with which he was charged. The MAGISTRATE remanded the prisoner for fur ther inquiry, but consented, on the application of Mr. B inns, to accept of suretie s f or hi s appearance to an swer the charge. WANDS WORTH. Joseph Gardiner, of Field-place, Larkhall-lane, Clapham, builder, was summo ne d b y M r . Alf re d James Hiscocks,i the district surveyor for Wands worth and Tooting, under the 7th and Bth Victoria, c. 84, s. 77, for refusing to pay a fee of 2/ , to which the said surveyor was entitled for surveying and super vising two 4th rate Ist class houses at Morton-road, in the parish of Tooting. _ _ Proof of the tender of the receipt for 3/. to Mr. Gardiner was proved by the surveyor's clerk, and which receipt distinctly stated the charge as 1/. 10s. for each house. Mr. Roberts objected to the informality of the summons. His client was sued for 21., whereas no such sum existed in the charges laid down in the Act. Mr. Hiscocks explained that 1/. had been previously paid, and that was why the demand now made was only for V. Mr. PAYNTER said there was no doubt the sum mons was informal; it ought to have been for the balace of 31., but if that summons was dismissed, he could have another for the 2/., as it was quite clear defendant was liable. Mr. Roberts now made a demand for the return of 15s. which his client had paid the surveyor for fixing the line where some buildings were to be erected ; but they were not erected, nor even commenced, there fore there was no fee allowed by the Act, and the sur veyor ought to return the money. Mr. Hiscocks said this was a special case, and for such there was a proviso in the Act. The defendant had written to him to meet him at Tooting, to survey a piece of ground, telling him he should give him a fee whether he built or not, and he gave him 155., for which he wrote bim a receipt. Mr. PAYNTEE said defendant had made a payment in his own wrong, and he did not think he could get it back; but he might go to the official referees. Mr. Roberts now contended that the summons must be dismissed, as his client was summoned for the sum of 21, upon the " expiration of one month after the completion of the said buildings." Now the fact was the buildings were not completed, for they had no flooring down. In answer to Mr. PArrTER, the surveyor's clerk said the roofs were on, and the rafters and joists fixed, and all the principal timbers, but the floors were not laid. Mr. Iliscocks contended that the construction of the Act was a month after the roof was on, and then he was entitled to tender his receipt; for if a house was finished first, the surveyors would never get their fees at all. Mr. PAYNTER referred to the Act, and observed that on the question of flooring it wag decided ; and as it was very clear there was no flooring in these houses, the summons must be dismissed. The defendant applied for costs, but the magistrate refused them. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current, Sept. 20.)

'WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 20.—The arrival of wheat is liberal, and the demand inactive, yet there is no dis position to take lower prizes fir good samples; ordinary qualities of new are difficult to move. There is a steady retail sale for oats and shelling at late rates. A little more new barley is offering, which does not realise the extreme prices of last week. In beans and other articles no alteration. Old- New. WHEAT, per qr. 601bs per bushel:— s. s. s. s.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, SEPT. 20.—About 300 hhds West India have been disposed of in the week, and prices are again rather dearer. Refined goods meet a ready sale at full prices. In rum the transactions since our last are limited; and for West India molasses there is still no demand.—Bristol Mercury. NEWBURY, SEPT. 19.—The supply of wheat to-day is unusually large, and principally of the new crop, the quality and condition of which are a fair average. The market opened by a demand for a considerable advance, but the extent of the supply inspired millers with a con fidence, and ultimately a fair trade was done at full rates of last week. Barley, with small supply, but little pas , - lug at late rates. Beans and peas, short supply, but late rates fully supported. LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 20.—At this morning's market there was a large display of samples of wheat and flour, and, having only a moderate demand, prices were the turn in favour of buyers. Irish new ranged from 5s 6d to 6s per 701bs, according to quality. The mat ket is at present very baro of good mealing oate. Barley, beans, and peas each brought extreme rates, with a steady, healthy demand for feeding purposes. Indian corn con tinues to bo held firmly, at 28s per 4801bs. for the best American yellow, but there was very little passing in the article this morning. EXETER, SEPT. 20.—Cattle Market—The market to day was but moderately supplied, but the attendance of dealers bdsig small, and there being but little disposition to purchase, the supply was much more than equal to the demand, and business was therefore very dull. Fat beef must be quoted at 7s 6d to Si per score, the latter being the highest price given.
