[The following appeared in our Third Edition of Saturday:—] THE BATH POISONING CASE. CONCLUSION OF THE INQUEST. --- VERDICT OF WILFUL MURDER AGAINST MR. CROSBY AND MISS LEWIS. The inquest on the body of the unfortunate infant of Elizabeth Lewis, for the poisoning of which at Bath the mother was fully committed for trial by the magistrates, was yesterday resumed. The evidence did not differ in any essential particular from that given before the ma gistrates. Two letters, however, from Mr. Crosby to Miss Lewis were put in and read. The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against Caroline Elizabeth Lewis and Thomas Crosby, and Mr. Crosby, who pro tested his innocence, was at once apprehended, and com mitted by the Coroner for trial.

IG.—ln the sitting of the Se cond Chamber the project of law for regulating the erase and fisheries was brought under discussion. By it great privileges are granted to the lower orders-, who will be permitted to hunt on certain lands without license, and will have the unlimited right of fishing with the line. Two projects of law on colonial coinage were also brought under debate.—Amsterdam Courant 'MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal.) A large accession of business has flowed into the mining market in the course of the present work, of which the principal part is still of the speculative de scription, and again absorbing a large amount of capital in premiums. Although some of the concerns, included in this category, undoubtedly deserve the encouragement thus bestowed upon them, others assuredly do not, and against which it is to be regretted the public are not more on their guard. In dividend mines there is scarcely any change since our last report-buyers greatly predominating over sellers, and, consequently, the busi ness done is below a fair proportion. For progressive mines there hss been rather more demand, excepting where calls are made or contemplated. We look for a continued extension of business, in consequence of the generally satisfactory reports from the several districts, with the present and prosvetivo abundance of capital. Ia the Metal Market-A steady business has been doiegin copper, at the improved price.-British tin is steady; and a regular demand fur foreign, the sales amounting to about 2,000 slabs.-Lead is very dull, par ticularly Spanish, which is likely to recede in price.- Tin plates very brisk.-Spelter is quite nominal.

THE BREVET.—We can now announce with con fidence that a brevet promotion will take place early in November. Nothing is absolutely known of the extent to which the promotion will go ; but facts leak out at clubs and in other quarters, and by a compa rison of information from different sources, we think we may confidently state that the Lieutenant- Generals to be promoted to Generals will compre hend all down to Lord Charles Somerset Manners ; the Major-Generals to be advanced to Lieutenant-Generals will include Lord Fre derick Fitzclarence, stopping short at the Duke of Cambridge. The Colonels who are to become Major-Generals embrace all down to Colonel Chem herlayne ; the promotion of Lieutenant-Colonels and Majors takes in those of 1841, and the Captains of 1840 become Majors. So small a brevet has not been known for many a long day, always excepting the memorable Irish brevet of 1849. In addition to the list of staff appointments to be vacated at the forth coming brevet, as mentioned in our impression of last week, we should have stated that the coaarnandantship of the Royal Military Asylum at Chelsea, now held by Colonel Browne, will also be at the disposal of the Commander-in-Chief. ORDNANCE.—J. E. K. Grogan, Esq., Barrick master of Cahir, Clogheen, and New Inn, has re ceived leave of absence to proceed to London. The Quartermaster of the 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards is performing the duties during his absence. SrArF.—Major••General Macdonald, C. 8., com manding the Kilkenny District, has returned to Kil kenny from his tour of inspection. Major-General Bainbrigge, C. 8., commanding the Belfast district, has returned to Belfast from his tour of inspection. ENROLLED Rarisroxims.—The London Enrolled Pensioners are to assemble for four days' drill, making ten days this year, commencing on Monday next. SOLDIERS' BEDS.—liew straw and paillasses are ordered to be issued by the barrackmaster in Ireland for the use of the troops, and to try the experiment of the straw lasting ninety days, instead of sixty days as formerly. DRAFTS FOR THE WEST INDlES.—Detachments of the 34th, 36th, 67th, and 69th Regiments, are under orders to embark for the West Indies to join their respective heal quarters. TROOPS FOR THE lONIAN ISLANDS.—Drafts have been placed in order from the 30th, 41st, 47th, 49th, and 92d Regiments, consisting of 92 men, to embark for the service companies of their corps, stationed in the lonian Islands. TROOPS FOR GIBRALTAR.—Drafts of the 13th Light Infantry, 26th (Cameronians), 44th, and 55th Regi ments are under orders to embark fur the service companies at Gibraltar. DRAFTS FOR MALTA.--Detachments Of the 3d Buffs, 68th Light Infantry, and 76th Itegiments are under orders to embark for the service companies at Malta. Rora.r. ENGINEER ESTA BLISFIMEET.—Maj OD. Gene ral Sir John Burgoyne, K.C.8., made a visit of in spection to the Royal Engineer Establishment at Chatham on Thursday last, when several interesting experiments connected with the scientific pursuits of the corps, were tried in his presence, on the Field Instruction practice ground, within the lines. We believe there is no truth in the report that Commander John Mc N. Boyd is coming home from the Superb, 80, in the Mediterranean. The gallant officer will continue in her until she returns to Eng land to be paid off, which will be very shortly. ADMIRAL I) ['HMS'S VISIT TO THE MEDITEERA.. ?max FLEET.—We are enabled to give a flat contra diction to the report that Admiral Deans Dundas's visit to the Mediterranean fleet, at Barcelona, had any political object. Tile Gallant Admiral had been travelling on the continent for some time, and took advantage, when near the rendezvous, to run down from Cette, and pay a friendly visit to his old Com mander-in-Chief, Sir W. Parker, and to see that fleet which he will no doubt very shortly have under his o wn immediate orders. _ _ _ THE MEDITERRANEAN FLEET.—Admiral Sir Wil liam Parker s Bart., G.C.8., with all his fleet of line of-battle ships on the station, with the exception of the Vengeance, 84, Captain Lord E. Russell, remained in the Bay of [Loses on the 9th inst. All sorts of re ports of the destination of the fleet are in circulation, but we believe we are correct in stating that the Ad miral intended to take his fleet in a day or two on a cruise off Barcelona, touching at Port Mahon. It is said the Gallant Admiral will be at Malta by the 15th November, where the fleet will remain until his sue ce3sor arrives. _ _ I)o P a : e a s : i . o r n es e i f ; t T h u e u fe N ll lEnrrauElNEAN.--The arrival of the Merlin at Malta, from Patras, puts the public in appeared in the vicini ? t w y l o n Fl f t a h c a b c i a l , — w A ith whose persons crew we re they bea , have seized several boats , t and among them 7 pirate men.sn b o lonian, ih h aen a y s , and tore down her flag.

The lecture-room was crowded to the ceiling, though the price of admission was sixpence, and to the reserved seats one shilling, and the fair debutante on making her appearance, was welcomed in a hearty manner. Removing from her shoulders the light cloak in which her form was enveloped, and turning to the audience, whose cheers she appropriated with much self-satis faction, she curtsied and bowed with all the grace she could command, whether natural or assumed, and a full-blown Bloomer stood revealed. Some of the rougher sex cheered, others roared with laughter, whilst the ladies joined in the general burst of hilarity. Miss Atkins had on her head a felt hat, of the shape commonly known as the "wide awake," ornamented with a feather and trimmed with light blue riband. This she wore rather jauntily on one side, and a plentiful dis play of curls dangled beneath it. The boddice of her dress was open at the breast, displaying a neatly worked ehemisette, and with the skirt, and the article which shall be nameless, was composed of black satin. A thin lace-edging round the ankles, and brown boots, completed the attire. Without an instant's delay Miss Atkins entered upon her task, by commencing a terrific onslaught upon " that tyrant fashion," and ridiculing in a volley of explosive sen tences the costumes of former and present times. The patch once so generally worn by ladies in the days of Addison and Steele was introduced by a court lady who had a scar on her cheek ; and the cumber some hoop was the invention of another court lady who had a crooked leg. The practice of tight lacing next came in for a severe castigation, as one of the superinducing causes of consumption in this country. It was not alone the climate that was to blame. That any one might see who would but take the trouble of looking into a ball-room. It was the_ tightly-laced waist, the bare neck and chest, the naked arms, and the thin shoes. Why, a tight-laced woman, exclaimed Miss A., is an absolute deformity.—(Loud cheers from the gentlemen, the ladies looked indig nant.);Yes, ladies, it is so. Go to the British Museum. There you will see the most splendid models of what the ladies of Greece and Rome were ; but not one specimen of tight-lacing will you discover among them.—(Cheers and l'oud laughter.) In ad dition to its other disadvantages, the present cos tume for ladies is too long. The dress is " always in the way."—(Laughter.) And the ladies are con stantly in fear lest, in passing through the streets in wet weather, they should drag it through the dirt, or else raise it indelicately high.—(Roars of laughter.) It has been urged, continued Miss A., that the proposed costume is an immodest one. But—(Here she extended her arms and advanced a foot, and looked appealingly to the gentle occupants of the benches round her) —is it so, ladies ?—(Shouts of laughter, accompanied by cries of " Yes, it is," and " No, it isnt.") I am sure, by the kind manner in which you have spoken, that you do not think it is. —(More cheers.) And, again I say, that we must and we will have a reform.—(Cheers and laughter.) The question is, shall we or shall we not be allowed to judge for ourselves in the matter of dress, or consent to be held up to posterity as mag • pies, peacocks, and jackdaws ?—(Great laughter.) Advocating, as I do, the rights of woman to judge for themselves what dress they shall wear, I would not have them even to adopt the new costume merely on account of its becoming a fashion. Try it, dear ladies —test it, and if you do not find it alike easy and graceful, in the words of the immortal bard— " Le t it down the wind to prey at fortune." Don't condemn the dress I wear (here again she ex tended her arms, advanced a foot, and assumed a de cidedly theatrical attitude). See its superiority to the one in use, and be assured that it will add immea surably to your ease, your comfort, and convenience. Try it, then, ladies, if it is only in-doors—but do try it.—(Much cheering, and renewed laughter.) I deny that it is " unfeminine," or that the wearing of it shows that we are envious of the coat and trousers of the opposite sex.—(Roars of laughter.) Again, I would like to know what right the male sex have to interfere with us ? If any gentleman :here wishes that the long dress should continue to be worn, I would say wear it yourself for a week, with the weather cold and the streets wet and dirty, and your hands tied behind you so that you cannot hold it up. We never interfere with the length or shape of their attire—why should they in terfere with ours ? Unfortunately, the lesson that has been taught us is, that we are made to be the slaves of fashion and of man. But I repudiate the doctrine with disdain—l contend (with a toss of the head) that man was born to wait on woman.—(Cries of " Oh, oh," from the gentlemen; waving of hand kerchiefs by the ladies.) The costume I now appear in is calculated to preserve health and lengthen our days ; and I say we will live as long as we can, if it is only to plague the men.—(Roars of laughter for several minutes, some of :the ladies deeply affected, and seemingly quite over powered by the excitement which the eloquence of the fair lecturer bad imparted to their feelings.) Take my word for it, said Miss Atkins, in conclusion, before six months are over your heads the Bloomer costume will be the costume of England.—(Cheers, derisive laughter, and cries of " Oh, oh," and " No, no.") Tell your fathers and husbands, ladies, of its convenience ; and if that is not enough, tell them of the " saving in expense ;" and when you have done that they will be sure to say " Bloomerism for ever !"—(Loud cheers and laughter, which were renewed vociferously when Miss Atkins, bowing, and thanking the company for her reception, withdrew.) IXTURES. BRIX. Northallerton • 23 Newmarket Houghton 27 Copenhagen St. Helena POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GurLDH A Lt. :r. Coles Child, coal merchant, o , Kiag's•cross, Mr. Mowatt, the secretary to the Great Northern Railway Company, and George Wright, the oarman, were summoned before Alderman Wilson, for de livering three tons of coal with four unjust 561 b. weights; one was 6oz. short, another 15oz , a third :11b., and the other as much as lib. 3ioz. deficient, and :none of them were stamped. M. Child, in answer to the summons, stated that the 'Great Northern Railway Company found carts and •weights, and put in a contract between them and a lir. Williams to the following effect : " The contractor to provide proper weighing machines and weights (as required by the Act 1 and 2 Victoria, cap. 104) for transmission with the coal waggons and carts—viz., four weights of 561bs. each and sufficient small weights to weigh the sack, to adjust and keep the same in a correct state, and to be responsible for any fines or legal expenses which may arise from their not being so." So that if the weights were deficient he would plead guilty, and whatever fine the alderman imposed he would look to Mr. Williams (the party with whom the above contract was entered into by the company) for. He; was informed that owing to the increased pace at which the carts now travelled the weights had lost by continually rubbing together, so that the deficiency could only be attributed to fair wear and tear. _ _ _ _ _ The inspector produced the weights. In two of them the adjusting lead was all gone, and none of them were stamped. Mr. Child said the weights were all new in June last, and bore the Guildhall stamp. Alderman WILSON said be could not believe that a 561 b. weight could fairly hue llb. 3oz. in a few months' wear. He did not suppose that Mr. Child was cognizant of the deficiency, but the law had very properly made the seller together with the owner of the cart and the carman equally answerable, in order that the public should have honest weight in' their coals. He could only presume that the lead had been stolen, but that did not signify, for there was no excuse for false weight. This was the worst case of the kind he had seen for a long while, and considered the carman as much to blame as any one in taking out such weights. It was true that the secretary's name was on the cart, but that, so far from excusing him, only rendered him legally liable with the rest. It may be supposed he had trusted to others to see that proper weights were sent out, still it would be necessary to inflict a small fine upon him, to let every body know that the great companies must comply with the full provisions of the law. Mr. Child had been fined on a former occasion 204., and he (Alderman Wilson) would have thought that ought to have made him extra careful. It did not matter if the weights were new in June; if they were found short they should be replaced, daily if necessary, but certainly they should have a daily inspection, if the wear and tear could be anything like what Mr. Child had stated it to be. Mr. Child said he would make the contractor pay the fine, according to the conditions of the bond ; but, at the same time, he would take care it should not occur again. The carman was then called, who said he had no thing to do with the weights. Alderman WILSON said he (defendant) should be taught that he had everything to do with them, and that he was liable to 101. penalty for taking out false weights. He would fine Nr. Child 203., the carman 203., and the secretary as., as a caution or warning to look to the weights in future. The Alderman said he had not done this to throw any obstacle in the way of the sale of inland coals. Fie thought they were a great public benefit; but be must take care that the buyers had their proper weight. Mr. Child said the demand was so great that he had more orders on his hands than the pits could supply for the next six weeks, and that the company would be unable . to meet the demand for some time. Alderman WILSON said he was not at all surprised to hear it. The Silkstone coals were the coals he brought into public notice in the year 1839, when he was Lord Mayor, and they were then only known as " Lord Mayor's coals," and only failed because the demand was a thousand times treater than the supply. During the year he was in the Mansion-house he paid but 225. per ton for these cosh, while the public were paying the enormeus price of 12s. and 38s. for Lord Londonderry's. That nobleman addressed a letter to him (Alderman Wilson), endeavouring to show that no Wall's-end coals could be brought into the mar ket to pay the owner at less flan 335. per ton. Yet he had since that had his Lordship's coals delivered at his house in St. Paul's Churciyard at 223. per ton. He believed the Yorkshire (Sikstone) coals equal to any Newcastle coals that came to the market, but ha would caution those who wishei to buy them to make sure they were " Silkstone," os it would be just what it was in 1839. Ile took credit to himself in having broken up the combination first amongst the coal factors, and next between the pitowners, and hence the reduction in the price of coals. He would also tell the public that all Yorkshire coals were not equally good; but let them encourage the inland coals (there were many excellent coals besides the Yorkshire), and they would stil continue to have a gradual reduction. WORSHIP-STREET. John Argent, a tall portly nan, was charged with the following scandalous outrage ; It appeared from the statemeat of the complainant, a little girl named Anne Humphreys, only 12 years of age, that having been sent out by her parents upon an errand at seven o'clock on tte preceding evening, she was returning to their house in Garden-row, Bethnal-green, when, upon reaching the corner of a street called Pollard's-row, sht was stopped by the prisoner, who asked her if she would carry a small parcel for him to a house in t%e neighbourhood, and he promised to give her a shilling for her trouble. She consented to do so, and, after taking her a short dis tance, the prisoner led her into s public-house or beer shop, where he called for something to drink, aid pressed her to take part of it; she, however, refused to do so, and the prisoner then walked on with her until she found herself in the London Fields, Hack ney, across the greater portion of which he took her, until they came to a part which was very lonely, when, upon her objecting to go any further, be took her up in his arms, and carried her a short distance; but she was so terrified, that she began to scream loudly, and the pri soner to stop her cries thrust something like a pitch plaister all over her mouth and face. He then flung her down upon the ground, and was proceeding to acts of the grossest description when she contrived to push the plaister off her mouth, and again screamed as loud 59 she could. The prisoner, notwithstanding persisted in his infamous conduct, and, after threat ening her with a knife which he told her he had in his pocket, pulled out some instrument and swore that be would job out her eyes with it if she did not keep quiet. This, however, only had the effect of increasing the girl's fears, and she screamed so loudly that the prisoner, upon hearing footsteps ad vancing rapidly towards them, became alarmed for his own safety, relinquished his grasp of her, and hur ried off in en opposite direction. Mr. Frederick Ricketts, a clerk in a mercantile house in the City, sbated that while crossing the fields at the time in question to reach his own resi dence, he heard loud shrieks in a child's voice, and while hastening off in the direction in which they ap peared to proceed, the little girl rushed towards him in a state of extreme terror, and asked him to save her from some man who bad grossly ill used her. He questioned the child as to the conduct that had been pursued towards her, and on learning the par ticulars hurried with her across the fields in pursuit of the prisoner, whom they at length caught sight of, and, the little girl having at once identified him as the man who had so assailed her, he followed behind him, and kept him in sight until a constable made his ap pearance, when he immediately apprised the officer of what the prisoner had been guilty of, and gave him into custody. The prisoner earnestly declared that the whole of the girl's story was a pure fabrication ; but Mr. D ' EYNCOURT ordered him to be committed until that day week for the completion of the deposi tions: LAMBETH. !RACING OCTO' Harpenden • 21 Newton Autumn 22 Copenhagen Hereford NOVEMBER.

Equal advantages to those Scotland had enjoyed were claimed for Ireland. The measure introduced by the Minister was called for the " Scotch and Irish Banks," thereby omitting to discriminate between the two systems. The Irish system was one embodying the monopoly of the Bask of Ireland, which monopoly gives the control of the issues of the whole circulation to one establishment. The Scotch system did not admit of monopoly to any. The same freedom should have been accorded to Ireland ; the Government debt due to the Bank of Ireland should be paid off to make us on equal terms with Scotland. This Government debt absorbs the whole capital of the Bank of Ireland, and in lieu is given the power of issuing up to a certai❑ amount " per certificate." Thus our circulation is based upon debt and monopoly, while the Scotch was based upon capital and freedom. And the Bill of 1845 enacted that no new banks of issue should be established in Scotland or Ireland, and this was deemed a good measure of justice. Scotland, having thriven on a system by which sbe had a sufficient currency for her trade, was not al lowed any more banks. Ireland, having suffered long from a grievous monopoly which absorbed her bank ing capital, was to hare no new banks of issue, but to remain with this monopoly still arbitrarily ruli ng her trade. . _ John Mason, alias Barrett, alias Farr, alias Blind Johnny, an active member of a notorious gang of begging-letter impostors, was charged with obtaining a Post-office order for 4/. 19s. sd. from the Countess of Shaftesbury by false pretences. Luke Reaney, an officer belonging to the Mendicity Society, deposed, that in consequence of a letter re ceived from the superintendent of police at South ampton, stating that a gang of begging-letter writers were engaged in forwarding letters to the nobility and gentr as if gentry, dated t ‘ h ‘ e Rev.

MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20, 1851. house, in South-street, Walworth-common, who has kindly interested himself i s h e iv c of rtf thp iirlpt, 55 children of the unfortunate nian Har mer, who, on that day fortnight, destroyed himself by in the first instance discharging a loaded pistol into his mouth, and subsequently, after walking and running three miles, placing hitnsF•lf on the rails of the Brighton line, just as a luggage train was ap proaching, waited on Mr. Norton, and placed before him a petition which he had drawn up for the dis tressed family. Mr. Jenkins said that the unfortunate widow was left with nine children- altogether, but the eldest girl was out at service, and a second child was taken by a friend, but the remaining seven (all under 12 years of age) were left on her hands without the slightest means to support them. Mr. NORTON having looked over the petition, re• marked that the case was a distressing, one, indeed, and much exceeded that which had been brought under notice two days before—he meant that of the family of the man who had destroyed himself and his two children. In the former case there was only one child to be provided for, whereas in the present there were the unfortunate widow and her seven help less children to be taken into consideration. English, one of the warrant-officers, said he had made inquiries respecting the character and conduct of Mrs. Harmer, and from every person whom he had spoken to he had received the most satisfactory account of her. He had also been to Mr. Knight, the employer of her late husband, and from him he had also received the highest character of the de ceased as a sober man and an extraordinary clever workman as a grainer, but had been so frequently affected in his head, the result of an accident, that those who knew him were not surprised at what had happened. Mr. NORTON complimented Mr. Jenkins upon the kind interest he had taken in behalf of the distressed family, and the able manner in which he had drawn up the petition, and suggested that the fact of Mrs. Harmer having been brought up to the business of a dressmaker and milliner might be added ; for, this being done, and her getting into a small shop and way of business, many benevolent persons would, he had no doubt, deal with and assist her, and by this means she might be the better enabled to provide for her children. Mr. Jenkins highly approved of the suggestion, and said he should with pleasure make the addition. Mr. NORTON then said he should give 3/. out of the poor. box towards the fund for providing for the widow and family, and, as the distressing circum stances of the case spoke abundantly for themselves, he had no doubt the public would sympathise with the unfortunate family, and subscribe liberally to a fund for their maintenance. The worthy magistrate here headed the subscription-list with the item of 3/. from the poor-box, and the poor widow, who seemed deeply affected at the magistrate's kindness, expressed her gratitude as well as she was able, and with six of her little children left the court. THAMES. Charles Wilding, a mere lad in appearance, but described on the police-sheet as 21 Sears of age, was brought before Mr. Yardley on remain], charged witu furiously driving a horse and cart, and running over a boy named John Santry, about 11 years of age. It — appeared that on the 9th inst. the prisoner was in the service of Mr. Lee, a master butcher in Leadenhall-market, whose horse and cart he was driving along High-street, Shadwell a very crowded thoroughfare—at a furious pace. The boy Santry, who was standing opposite a grocer's shop with an announcement board, was knocked down, his collar-bone was fractured, and he sustained other and most serious injuries. He was removed to the London Hospital, and was not restored to conscious ness till the following. day. He came into court on Saturday in a very weakly condition, and will pro bably be affected by the accident for the remainder of his life. Bidgood, a pollee-constable, No. 161 K, who saw the accident, said he thought, before the boy was knocked down, that the horse and cart were going too fast, and that some casualty would happen. The prisoner, in defence, said the horse was a young one and very spirited. It went very freely, and completely overpowered him. He was unable to stop the animal, which, he supposed, was frightened by the glare of the gaslights. Bidgood was recalled, and said the prisoner did pull up as soon as he could after the accident hap pened. He was dragging at the reins, but the horse did not stop until it had proceeded at least sixty yards. The prisoner said he had been in prison eight days. He had not a friend in the world, and his master had never made the least inquiry about him. Mr. YARDLEY expressed his surprise at this state ment. He never meant the prisoner to be in gaol at all. He had expressed his intention of taking one bail for him, and thought his master would have been his security. Roche, the gaoler, said there were three other per sons in the cart when the accident happened, and not one of them came near the prisoner, who was kept in the cell till the very last moment, to give his master an opportunity of bailing him. Mr. YARDLEY said that Mr. Lee ought to be ashamed of himself. He had intrusted his lad with a young, free-going horse, which he was unable to control, and when he met with an accident had left him to his fate and made no inquiry about him. He asked if Mr. Lee had made the poor boy who was in jured any compensation. The mother of the boy replied in the negative, and said she was a poor widow with five children, and one of them, a baby in arms, had died since the ac cident to her son, in consequence of the fright affect ing her milk. Mr. YARDLEY said the prisoner was not altogether free from blame, but he thought Mr. Lee, his master, was more blameable, and was very callous. He asked the prisoner how long he had been in Mr. Lee's em ploy, and what he intended to do ? The prisoner said he had been in London two years and a half, and was in the service of Mr. Har rison, of the New•cut, Lambeth, upwards of two years. He was only four days in Mr. Lee's employ. The mother of the injured boy, who sobbed loudly, here said, " What am Ito do, your worship ? lam a very poor woman ; my poor boy is ruined for life, and has lost his situation, and my baby is lying dead." Mr. YARDLEY said the only course left open to the poor woman was to bring an action against Mr. Lee, of Leadenhall-market. He directed Bidgood, the policeman, to wait on Mr. Lee and state hi (the magistrate's) opinion that he ought to compensate the mother of the injured boy, and do something for his servant, who had been in gaol eight days, through his master's neglect. Mr. Pelham, the solcitor, said that Mr. Lee was a man of great property. Mr. YARDLEY hoped his message would have the desired (Affect. Although Mr. Lee was a man of great property he very much doubted whether he would attend to the suggestion after the apathy he had shown in this matter. He then discharged the prisoner, and gave the poor widow ss. from the poor box towards paying the expenses of burying her child. SOUTHWARK. William J.neB and Edward Young, hut who were known to the police as brothers, some of the family being transported, and others undergoing punish ment in the metropolitan prisons, were brought up in custody charged on suspicion of having committed several burglaries, and having stolen an immense quantity of property of various descriptions. William Weston, police-constable 65 L, said that on the previous night he was on duty in the Corn wall-road, when he saw Jones pass along and enter a marine-store dealer's, and pull something from under his coat which he deposited on the counter. Witness entered the shop, and saw him offer fur sale a quan tity of type metal. He asked him how he came by it, when he replied that he bought it with two boxes, and other articles, at a shop in White Horse- court, Clare-market. IVitness took him to t he station house, and went to make inquiries at the latter place, but could not find the person described by the pri soner. On his return to the station-house he took the key of Jones's lodgings, and proceeded to No. 18, Upper Ground-street, and, on. opening his room, he discovered Young in bed. 1113 answers being unsa tisfactory, caused him to search the room, when ho found a large quantity of printers' type, sev e r a l wooded blocks, two bundles of circulars belonging to Mr. Straker, printer, 80, I3ishopsgate-street Within, several surgical instruments, weights and sc a l es , a volume of "13uchan'e Domestic Medicine," an o th er volume of the" Edinburgh New Dispensatory," a quan tity of rhubarb, and a vast number of other articles, which had evidently been the produ ce o f several , bur glaries lately committed in th e metropol i s. The prisoner Young told him the circ u l ars were given to him to distribute, and th e type he had bought on several occasions, but as fur the books and medical things, he was studying the art of doctoring, and purchased them to assist him. Having taken him to the station-house, he returned to their lodgings and further searched the room. In one of the boxes he discovered a bundle of letters, addressed to IVilliatn Jones, most of them of recent date, and one bearing the Port Philip postmark. The latter was from his brother, who was transported to Sydney a few years ago, but having com m itt e d hi mse lf 'there about a year ago, was sentenced to death. That sentence was commuted to transportation for lif e at P o rt Philip. The writer described the horrible situation he was in, declaring that he would sooner have been Lung than be sent to Port Philip. The punishment was most severe, and death would be preferable. The other letters were from Jones's wife, who was confined in the Coinpter for felony. Those letters were written with ink made from the " blue" used in washing, and were clandestinely conveyed out of the prisonby men who were employed to whitewash the interior. They described robberies to a considerable extent which they had been engaged in, arid gave instruc. tions for the disposal of some of the plunder. He the reinancied for a iew io enable him lo investigate further into the matter, as he believed the medical articles had been stolen from a hospital in the country which had recently been broken into, and they answered the description of the property stolen there from. Sergeant Harris, G L, said he assisted in searching , the room, and near the bed he discovered a formid able " jemmy" used by burglars, and a number of first-rate housebreaking implements. The MAGISTRATE said, that from the nature of the letters there could be no doubt they were connected with a well-organized gang of thieves, and on further investigation the constables might he able to bring forward evidence to implicate the prisoners in several of the burglaries that had recently been committed. He should therefore remand them until Thursday next. He (the Magistrate) directed the constable to take special care of the letters from Jones's wife, and make inquiries at the Compter respecting them. He was sure that great irregularities must have taken place lately in the discipline of the prison, or they could not have been in the prisoner's possession.
