This Railway, running from the Great Town and Military Station of Dijon, on the Lyons Line to Mulhouse (the Birmingham of France), has already been determined upon by the French Govern ment, and there is little doubt will be conceded during the present session, in conjunction with the Lyons Line. At Mulhouse it will join the Railway already in operation between that City and Basle, thus making this route not only the shortest from Paris, but from all England to Switzerland, adding thereby greatly to the existing traffic on the Paris and Lyons Line, of which, in fact, it is an ex tension. Applications for Shares to be addressed to the Provisional Com mittee.

A Lamp, producing a star of dazzling flame, the light of twenty candles, and no more expense than two candles, so easy in management that any domestic can trim it. It cannot emit blacks or smoke, the Lamp being so constructed that the light will not rise after being put at the height required. No complication! All other Camphine Lamps bend before it. It reigns triumphant, " The Perfect Camphine Lamp." Table Lamps, Hall Lamps, and Kitchen Lamps, and any person's pedestal fitted in a very superior style for 235., complete.

The great value of this justly celebrated Chinese Cosmetique is, that the ingredients being solely herbaceous, tie most delicate com plexion can apply it without injury ; while rough, red, and moist skins speedily experience beneficial results. Another most important feature is that of repressing, without detriment to the sanatory con dition of the user, the truly unpleasant sensation accompanying too copious perspiration. Travellers, and residents in warm climates, subject to the ener vating influence of tropical heat, will, when the skin becomes moist and heated, experience inconceivable comfort by resorting to this Cosmetique, as it will both allay and avert discoloration and. coarseness.

DIOCESAN COURT OF INQUIRY-SIIELDRICK V. MONCILTON, CLERIC. This was an inquiry instituted under the authority of the Church Discipline Act. (3 and 4 Viet., c. 80) by the Bishop of London, who has appointed Dr. Lushington (Judge of his Consistorial Court), the Archdeacon Sinclair, Dr. Russell. and Dr. Stone, to investigate the conduct of the Ilon. and Rev. F. Smith Monckton, Perpetual Curate of the district:of St. Peter's, De Beauvoir-square, West Hackney. lt appears that for some time rumours have been spreading through the neighbourhood reflecting upon the character and conduct of Mr. Monckton, and at last Mr. Sheldrick, Mr. Lake, and other parishioners presented a memorial to the Bishop, call ing his attention to them, and requesting an investigation • into their truth. The Bishop, thus appealed to, availed him self of the authority of the Church Discipline Act, and -ap pointed this Commission of inquiry. The Commission having been opened on Friday, the fol. lowing witnesses were examined : Mrs. Williams, examined by Mr. DOANE—Deposod that her husband was master and she matron of the national schools in De Beauvoir-square, and had been so since 1843. Had visited the house of Mr. Monckton, with and without her husband. They had been compelled to go there on matters of business connected with the school. Mr. Monckton at the time resided at the Parsonage-house. She generally found him in the kitchen. Upon the Christmas-day, 1843, Mr. Monckton sang a song called " The Old English Gentleman," and imitated the death of the old gentleman by lying down, and throwing himself about on the floor in the presence of his servants. He threw witness's husband on the floor, not to hurt him. lie had three young servant girls, Sarah Iluggins, Anne Day, and hinny Frowde. One day, when witness was at the house in the kitchen with 11t . r. Monckton, Ann Day being out, the bell rang violently, and Mr. Monckton said Sarah was ill, and told witness to go up and see what she wanted. She did so, and found her (Sarah Iluggins) in bed, undressed, complainingjof the tooth ache, and of pains in her stomach. Mr. Monckton followed almost immediately to the bedroom. There were several flannel Lags war.uing at the fire, and he took them from witness's hand, and put them to Sarah's face, covered her up in bed, and as she complained of pain in her stomach, he rubbed tit. Sarah Huggins smoked with Mr. Monckton many times. Witness had seen Mr. Monckton take a cigar from his mouth, and hand it to Sarah Huggins, who put it in her mouth, and when Mr. Monckton returned he took it out of her mouth and replaced it in his own. She had seen this many times. She had seen Ann Day and Sarah Hug gins sitting on Mr. Monckton's knee, and had seen him take hold of them in an indecent manner in the front of their persons. They did not resist, because they were used to it. Had seen this often. At the Christmas dinner Sarah was " dressed for dinner," being the lady of the house. The two servants were dressed alike, and both wanted to be lady of the house, and almost had a fight about it. When Mr. Monckton came back from a dinner party, to which he had been on that day, he waas drunk, violently drunk, bois terous, brawling, and throwing himself about singing whilst on the floc Witness was rather shocked. Mrs. Julia Smith, wife of Mr. John Smith, was the next witness—She had told Mr. Monckton in his garden of the re ports about his girls in April last. From that time she and her husband had gradually withdrawn from his house. She told him on that occasion of the reports she had heard, and that people talked of his keeping such young girls and not having any housekeeper—that, from what she had heard, the girls had very much disgraced him. Sarah was twenty-three years of age, Susan twenty-one, and Ann twenty-one. On the following evening witness and her husband supped with Mr. Monckton and Sarah at the same table. When they went into the kitchen Sarah was sitting on one side the fire and Mr. Monckton at a table on the other side, in a flannel jacket, smoking a pipe. Something being said of an inquiry on the part of the clerk " what sort of a man the minister was," Sarah burst out. in a passion, and said she wished people would mind their own business, and Mr. Monckton made use of profane language, and said he would kick any man's behind. She (witness) had then said that Ann Day (who was sitting by her) had told her that Sarah and he (Mr. Monckton) slept together six nights out of the seven. Mr. Monckton made no answer at all, and Ann Day only said that she (witness) had asked her questions about her master. She lived next doer to Mr. Monckton for fifteen months till three months ago. The back of the house com manded a view of his garden. Had seen him working there, and his female servants there with him. His demeanour to theM was familiar and indecorous. The position of one of the servants when stooping to weed was not decent, her dress being elevated more than was proper before her master. Harriet Rushforth, aged eighteen, examined—Went to live with Mrs. Pearson, in Windmill-street, Gravesend, in August last. A person named Mrs. Huggins was there, and Sarah's sister Sus n. Sarah Iluggins was delivered of twins about a i month aft witness went there. Susan came backwards and forward before her confinement, and remained with her after it took place. They went away in October. Witness waited on them most of the time. A woman brought them wine, stout, and fruit. Huggins passed as a married woman ; she said her husband was a seafaring man at sea. A gen tleman came down to see her two or three times. Ballard, the officer, took witness to a church last Sunday, and the clergyman in the pulpit was the gentleman who came down to see Hu g gins; the gentleman was now present. The girls addressed him as their brother. He took tea once with them, Sarah being in bed at the time. He smoked. The last time lie came the children were dead, and the bodies were in a closet in the bedroom where he and Huggins were. Fanny Frowde examined—She went to live with Mr. Monckton in September. On one occasion they wanted witness to take off her things in the kitchen, which she re• fused, and Sarah told Mr. Monckton to take her (witness) upstairs, which he did, by taking hold of her arm, and led her to the bedroom. She was rather giddy. Sarah and Ann went with them. In the bedroom they told her to take her things off. She would not till they left the room. They remained in the bedroom wanting her to undress for half an hour. Mr. Monckton was going to untie her things. He tried to unloose her frock. 'Witness told them as plainly as she could to go along. lie said he would see her in bed before he went. During the time witness was at the house Mr. Monckton had gone into Sarah's bedroom in the evening whilst she was in bed, and read the newspaper to her. This concluded the first day's proceedings. On Saturday morning, at ten o'clock, the Commission re assembled, and the following witnesses were examined : Mr. Williams, master of the national school, deposed to the impropriety of Mr. Monckton's conduct. Had been pre sent in the kitchen on Christmas-day, when the Rev. Gentle mae had sung "The Old English Gentleman," and had laid upon the floor. Had been present in the drawing-room with Mr. Monckton and his three maids, when they alternately sat upon his knee. Had frequently dined in the kitchen • with Mr. Monckton and his servants. They all sat at the table together, on a perfect equality. Ribald jests were con stantly passing between Mr. Monckton and his servants. His conversation had a general tendency to ribaldry. Mr. Monckton would frequently cry out, in the presence of his maids, "All realities—no formalities—dull you can never , be." Mr. Monckton was constantly asking for beer. ' In April, 1844, witness and his wife went together to the parsonage, and complained of Mr. Monckton's impro per conduct with his servants. He was very angry, and said that no one had a right to interfere with him or his household. lie did not care a for any one. He would do as he liked, and if any one interfered with him he would kick his backside. After this dispute Mr. Monckton had asked witness and his wife to stay supper, which invitation they had accepted. The maids supped with them, and all joined in the prevailing jocularity. Supper over, rum was introduced, and - two glasses were mixed. Witness drank with Mr. Monckton, and the women out of the other glass. Mr. Monckton had proposed a toast, " to their better under standing," which they all drank, and another, " Here's to the waitress's good health," meaning thereby one of the girls who had assisted in serving them. By Dr. LUSIIINGTON—I was disgusted with the conduct of Mr. Monckton, and so was m wife, but we did not say so. Examination continued—ln y consequence of Mr. Monck ton's conduct, witness and wife had kept away from the parsonage as much as their duties would allow them. As master and mistress of the school, they were sometimes com pelled to go. When thor were invited to tea by Mr. Monck ton, they went ; but they never went without an invitation. There had been an examination of the schools in August, and a distribution of cakes and wine to the children. Sarah Iluggins assisted on that occasion. She was then four or five months gone in the family way. Cross-examined by Mr. WARREN—She was padded for the purpose of concealing her condition, but any one using his eyes could discover it. He and his wife had taken tea with Mr. Monckton since Sarah had been in the family way. He believed that Sarah was Mr. Monckton's mistress. He had taken tea with Mr. Blonckton, because he was a poor man, and was compelled. Mr. Monckton had not the power of turning him out of his situation, but he thought at that time that he could do so if he chose. 'Witness had taken his mother to Mr. Monck ton's house. His mother wanted to look at a member of the aristocracy, and so he took her. He believed Mr. Monckton to be a profound hypocrite. He was always very kind and affable in his manners. He had tried to make witness's wife bad. He had on one occasion tried to force her on his knee. That was on New Year's-day, 1844. lie had done so with the design of corrupting her. Mr. Monckton had endea voured at the time to pass it oft' as a joke, but witness had taken care not to let his wife go near him again that night. He knew that it was done with the intention of corrupting her. It was the first step. He was indignant at the time, but did not remonstrate with Mr. Monckton. A poor man was compelled to wink at many things he did not like. He and his wife had frequently taken tea with Mr. Monckton since that transaction, but his wife had never gone alone ex cept on business. Ile had taken his mother to Mr. Monck ton's house also since that time. He swore positively that the three girls sat on Mr. Monckton's knee. Mr. and Mrs. Huggins were present at the time when their two daughters sat on his knee. Witness had been compelled to apologise to Mr. Monckton for having spread slanderous rumours about the parish respecting him, but it was a " sham" apology. Witness had not meant what he said. He had taken the sacrament from Mr. Monckton since his insult to his wife. Witness had been dismissed from the Infant Orphan Asylum, where he had been tutor, for sending an indecent message to the matron. Re-examined by Mr. DoANE—hie had been unfairly dis missed. He had never sent any such message and Dr. A. Reed, the secretary, bad subsequently given him an excel lent character. lie was still the master of the National School. his mother had only remained a short time on her visit to Mr. Blonckton. Had not stopped to tea, but only had a glass of wine. Dlr. H. R. Ives deposed that lie is a member of the school committee. llad spent whole evenings in Mr. Monckton'e kitchen, the maids laughing, and romping, and joking, and taking their meals with the rev. gentleman. On ono occa sion Mr. Monckton said, that if witness would stay all night Fanny Frowde should sleep with him (witness). Would swear to that fact most positively. Mr. A. Repoli, a member of the school eommitte, deposed to having seen Mr. Monckton come into the committee• room the worse for liquor. Ths case was then adjourned, but the Court could not fix a day for resuming it. Mr. Monckton was present during the whole of the pro ceedings. LAW INTELLIGENCE. HOUSE OF LORDS, Mardi 17. The House sat to-day to hear appeals. The Peers present were—the Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, and Lord Campbell. Their Lordships were occupied the whole day with a part-heard Scotch appeal. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT, March 17. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR OF ENGLAND.) His lioNoun took the remaining cause petitions and motions to-day, none of which possessed any point of interest. (Before Vice-Chancellor K. BRUCE ) His HoNoun took bankrupt petitions to day. (Before Vice-Chancellor IVionam.) His HONOUR, after disposing of two unimportant ca , es, proceeded with the further hearing of Mayhew v. Edmonds. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT. March 14. (Before Mr. Justice WIGIITMAN.) PAIIIIICIDIC.-71tomas Nappies, 25, was charged with the manslaughter of Thomas Marplei, the elder, at Granaside, near Sheffield. The prisoner was charged with the manslaughter of his own father. The Learned Counsel remarked that this was one of the most lamentable cases that had ever occurred of a person yielding to the influence of momentary passion. The father of the prisoner was a blacksmith, in the village. of Grenaside; he was also a widower, and he and his son livid together. On the 4th of February they had been working together, and were making a garden rake in the afternoon. The father began to upbraid theson about having sold a rake to a woman named Mary Naylor, on trust, and which he could not get paid for. It turned out that the son owed Nay lor 2d. for mending his clothes, and the old man was unwil ling that it should be deducted for the rake. The young man became excited, and, in the heat of passion, thrust a piece of iron into the belly of his father. The son himself afterwards made a statement of what had occurred. He expressed the greatest contrition and sorrow, and ran oft' to a doctor to attend his father, and told him what had ce curred. Mr. Illingworth, surgeon, of Ecclesfield, was the practitioner called in, and he treated the deceased until he was removed to the infirmary on Wednesday, where he died on the following day. The prisoner was taken into custody, and he made a statement to the constable similar to that told to the surgeon. lie had also written a letter to his uncle, begging he would come over and see himself and his father. He said he was heartbroken, and wished his uncle to come over, as his father was dying, and his visit might be a solace to him. _ • . . . . . The prisoner, throughout. the whole of the trial, manifested the utmost agony of spirit, and continued to shed tears throughout the inquiry. When called upon to make his statement to the jury, he handed in a well-indicted docu ment, which was read by the officer of the Court. He made particular allusion in it to a paralysis on the left side with which he was afflicted, and said that in consequence of this infirmity his father had continually goaded him with his physical incapacity. On the day in question he introduced the subject again, and then in a tit of exasperation he (the prisoner) committed the dreadful act for which he was about to answer. lie looked back with terror on the deed, and he should continue through life to feel deep regret at the un timely end of his father. His Lordship briefly summed up, and the jury found the prisoner Guilty, but strongly recommended him to mercy. Mr. Justice WiaturatAtif passed sentence, He said— Thomas Marples, yours is a most melancholy case, and pre sents a dreadful instance of the consequences of yielding to the impulse of an ungovernable passion, by which act you have caused the death of your aged father, and involved yourself in misery and remorse for the rest of your life. There is no reason whatever to doubt your sincere repentance and contrition. Your own feelings must be much more severe than any punishment which can be Inflicted by a court of justice in such a case. I hope yours will be a most useful example to others. The sentence of the Court is, that you be imprisoned seven days and kept solitary. John Slaudeven, aged thirty-six, was charged with haying maliciously shot at Martha Stott, at Hoyland, with intent to do her grievous bodily barns. Mr. Wilkins and Mr. F. Thompson prosecutes! ; Mr. Bliss and Mr. Overend defended. Martha Stott is the wife of Henry Stott, who lives on a farm called Bailing, at Hoyland, near Halifax, and adjoining are some moors in the neighbourhood. Stott also is a game keeper to Mr. Boscoe, and has the care and superinten dence of the moors, on which there is a great number of grouse. On the 23d of November, the prisoner and other parties were summoned before the magistrates on the information of Stott. At the close of the examination the prisoner uttered a threat, the import of which was that " some time or other I will pop Stott off." On the 30th of November,, in the evening, Stoot's family were alarmed by some persons shooting a gun through one of the windows of the house. A son of the prosecutor was outside the house, and by the flash of the gun saw that it was the prisonet . who had discharged the piece. Mr. Buss, for the defence, endeavoured to explain the ex pression said to have been used by the prisoner, that, " he would pop Stott off," by supposing it to refer to the ap peal, which he subsequently made against a conviction that Stott had obtained before the magistrates, but which was quashed at the sessions. He urged also that it was next to impossible that the boy could have seen the person who fired off the gun with sufficient distinctness by the mere mo mentary flash of the cap of the gun, to be able to identify him as the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of—Not Guilty. Satuulan, March 15. Thomas Wilson, aged 21, was indicted for having, in the month of December last, at Wombledon, stolen 21/. Fs. Bd., the money of the Free Gift Society. It appeared from the evidence of the witnesses that the money is question was kept in a box, which was usually placed in the bed-room of Aaron Wilkes, the treasurer of the society. Wilkes is a joiner, and the prisoner had been his apprentice for four years, and during that time up to within a few months of the robbery had lived in Wilkes's house, and know how to enter it at night without disturbing the family. On the 6th of December Wilkes was from home on business. His wife heard some slight noise in the house during the night, and in the course of the next day missed the box. A labourer in the neighbourhood met the prisoner at an early hour in the morning, passing by where there was a pump. The prisoner appeared to be hiding something behind the pump, and the witness heard a noise as of something being knocked. This created a suspicion with the man after hearing of the robbery, when the well was searched. and it was discovered that some stones had been moved from over the well, and that the lost box was there, broken and cast into the water, the money taken away, and sumo papers only left. The prisoner having absconded, suspicion Cell upon him ; and Reid, an inspector of police, was there fore dispatched in pursuit of him. The officer went to Edin burgh, by York and Newcastle, and ultimately found Wilson in St. Andrew-square, at Edinburgh. At first the prisoner said that he had but 91. 4s. with him, but shortly said he knew all about the matter; though, as to the money he had, he did not know how he came by it. Being searched, there were found upon hint five sovereigns, besides a half-soverei7n, and two other pounds i i silver. He admitted he had bought a coat in Edinburgh, of Wilson and Martin, tailors; and the officer, on going to them, discovered that he had paid them with a 5/. note; and that note was identified by the trea surer, from several marks upot it, as a note which had been among the money lost, and contained in the box of the society. The prisoner was convicted.—Sentence deferred. MIDLAND C 1 11CUIT.—Nditingham, March 14. (Before Chief Justice TEN - DAL.) ATTEMPT TO MURDER.—Reuben Reddish, aged 20, a frame work knitter, was charged with stabbing and wounding, at Mansfield, on the 20th of last December, liytha Ann Haves. Mr. Dennison appeared on the part of the prosecution, and Mr. Willmore for the prisoner. The prisoner and the prosecutrix both live at Mansfield, and the young man had been paying his addresses to the latter; but on the Sunday preceding the day in question she had informed him it was her intention not to continue the connexion. The prosecutrix was living with her mother, and on the morning of the 20th of December the prisoner called at the house to breakfast. He began to interrogate the young woman as to her having told hint she did not intend to keep company with him any longer, and she said she did not. He said, " Must we then part?" To which she replied, " Yes." He then said, there would be blood ' come of it ; and she replied, " Let it be so.'" The prisoner was not slow to fulfil his prediction, for he immediately went to the kitchen, where he armed himself with a large carving knife, and commenced a ferocious attack upon the girl. She took up a chair to defend herself, through the bottom of which, in attempting to strike her, he made several thrusts. He succeeded in striking her in several places, inflicting wounds on her arm, hand, and right breast. Prosecutor was at last borne to the ground, and while the prisoner was in the act of rushing upon her with his knife, the mother of the girl threw herself upon him in front, and saved her from the intended blow. The force, however, with which he was making the stab, knocked the poor woman down. The prisoner also fell, and when on the floor made many attempts to wound the prosecutrix, the mother attempting to save her daughter. Eventually, the girl got away, and then the prisoner rose and went out. He did not quit the neighbourhood, but sauntered up and down before the house for some time. He WA, at length given into the custody of a policeman. The case was clearly proved against him, and the jury found a verdict of Guilty. A former conviction was proved to have taken place in IS-t3. The Learned JUDGE, after animadverting . with severity on the prisoner's conduct, sentenced him to be transported for life. The remaining criminal cases were disposed of this morning (Saturday), but were of a trifling nature. The causes were not commenced until this day, and . were all tried by a quarter past four,: including a special jury • the dispute in that cause being between old men, as to winch was entitled to a piece of land, about live square yards in size. The civil business at Derbv, for which county the commis sion will be opened on Monday, is also expected to be very light. In this county, taking it as a whole, the business has been lighter than for years past. NORFOLK ClRCUlT—Aylesbury, March 14. CROWN COURT—(Before Mr. Baron PAEKE.) THE REV. MR. DAT. William Day, aged 33, described in the calendar as " clerk," was arraigned on an indictment charging him with having feloniously cut and wounded James Batchelor on the sth of February last, with intent to mairu him and do him some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Birch conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. Sanders defended the prisoner. The rev. prisoner is the rector of liawridge, in this county, and, as may be remembered, was tried in this place, exactly 4 year since, on a charge of maiming sheep, of which he was then acquitted. He now stood again at the bar on the more serious charge of maiming a fellow being, under the follow ing circumstances :—On the day named i 7 the indictment the prosecutor (James Batchelor), a highly respectable it4lll;er of Liawridse, in which parish ho row tills the c.tce cf churclawa,2 Jen, Was at the ?,'de wad CrOWA in that village, when the rector came in, and, passing through the tap, invited his friend, for such he wet., to join into over some bread and cheese and ale in the pri vate parlour. They sat thus engaged some little time, till the prisoner repaired to, the tap-room and joined the company there assembled over their pipes and beer. In ib a win ." the evening the landlord deemed it prudent to get rid of his reverend customer; hut, not knowing exactly how to deal with him, he persuaded the. churchwarden to undertake the oiliest of mentor. The prosecutor accerdingiv rent into the tap and asked the rector whether he would not be going horn, soon; but receiving no answer he went away. As soon as be retired the prisoner was seen to take his pen knife from his pocket, to open it, and afterwards replace it. Not long after this the prosecutor made another attempt to remove the rector, who thereupon instantly, sprang up and pused or knoched him " bang over the form," striking at him with something which he had in bis fist. in attempting to ward off the blow, the prosecutor raiassd his band up to that of the prisoner and received. a slight wound from a penknife blade in the finger, after which the prisoner made several cuts at his smeekliock, which h. succeeded in ripping open in three places, and marking in various others where the blade could net penetrate through the folds of the garment. At this stage of the affair the company interposed, and the prisoner dropped the knife on. the door, when he called for a light and quietly hunted for his lost property. It was, however, soon taken from' hint, and the churchwarden, sending for a constable, gave him in charge for assaulting and cutting hint and injuring his emockfrock. When cross-examined, the prosecutor admitted that he had always been :on good terms with the prison r, as, indeed, was evidenced by h is i nv i ta ti on to join his repast. Mr. SANDEns (the Learned Judge having intimated that the feloniouscharge had failed, as it was evident that the wound in the linger was the result rather of accident, and was too trilling to support the indictment) then submitted that there was no assault even in point of law. The whole ease went to show that the object of the prisoner was the in jury of the garment, not of the person of the prosecutor, for his action was described to be just that of a man wishing to slit the dress with the knife. Mr. Baron I'ar.XE (after a communication with Mr. Jus tice Pattesou) was clearly of *pinion that the case tunounted to an assault. To attempt to cut any part of a toast's dress on his back was as much an interference with his person as blow on the back would be, where no part of the person should be touched. There could, therefore, be no question. for the jury, who should return a verdict, as' they might under this indictment, of guilty of an assault. The jury having so done, His Lon nsuir addresseet he prisoner in moat 'suitable and emphatic terms, commenting on the gross inipropriety of his conduct, which was such as to reflect indelible disgrace cd2 his sacred calling. It was impossible not to see that he pos sessed a most ungovernable temper, which was little suited to the position he occupied in society. The jut y had au quitted hint under hiS . direction of the felony of which he stood charged, but he had been convicted of an assault, and for that, seeing that he had been already imprisoned for one month, the sentence of the Court was. that he should be further imprisoned for six weeks. The prisoner then bowed to the Court, and retired from the dock apparently but little sensible of the degraded posi tion into which he had been brought by his conduct. William Archer, aged 35, was indicted for feloniously cutting and wounding John Dayrell Reid, with intent to murder hint, to maim him, and to do him some grievous bodily harm, on the 26th of August last. Mr. O'Malley and Mr. Power appeared for the prosecution, From the evidence of the prosecutor, who is an attorney, at Brill, in this county, and the other witnesses in th e eau , it appeared that the prisoner, having formed an illicit con nexion with one Eliza Turner, had on some occasion fallest out with and assaulted her. For this outrage he was sum moned before the justices, and tined 21., Mr. Reid being the legal adviser of the complainant. Ever since that event the prisoner, who seems to have been a sort of monomaniac, im bibed the notion that Mr. Reid had supplanted him in the affections of his paramour, and he commenced and sys tematically carried out, a series of attacks on that gentle. man, whom he took every possible opportunity to in sult and to tax with this unfounded charge. Unfortunately his friends and neighbours poured fuel on his flame, for they took delight in teasing the poor man, by telling him to take care, for .Mr. Reid had taken to carrying a stick to beat him. This being often repeated, induced the prisoner to carry about -with him an old bayonet, which he mounted on a handle, - and which be vowed it' Mr. Reid ever struck him ho would stick-into him. This fact came to Mr. Reid's ears, and lie summoned him before the magistrates, who refused to interfere. On that occasion the prisoner renewed his in sults in the passage of the house at which the justices had just met, and Mr. Reid, losing his temper, dealt his tormentor a blow with his walking- stick. The prisoner did not return it • but, continuing his annoyance, was again summoned, witen the magistrates again declined to bind him over to keep the peace, advising Mr. Reid to protect himself with his stick in the event of the prisoner ever using any more dangerous weapon than his tongue. Matters went on as before till the evening of the 26th of August, when the prosecutor, on coming out of a!public-house, observed the prisoner standing by the door. Wishing to avoid hint he went into the middle of the road, but the prisoner, as soon as he saw the prosecutor conic eut, said out loud, " Where is Eliza? I am going to meet her at Gingen-wood:" a form of speech which was rather aimed at the prosecutor than the party to whom it was ostensibly addressed. After this he placed. himself before Mr. Reid, who said, " Why am I always so insulted ?" on which the prisoner denied having spoken a word to him. The prosecutor then, according to the bystanders' account, struck the prisoner across the , thigh with his stick, and had hardly done so when the latterpulled the dreaded bayonet from his breast, and made a rush .and a blow at the prosecutor, who, raising his atm, received a alight wound on his elbow. After this a struggle ensued. They both seized the stick, and while contending for its possession the prosecutor received a wound in the abdomen front the weapon of his antagonist, which immediately caused him to faint and fall against the w ail. On being 'examined, the wound was found to have penetrated the waistcoat and baud of Ins breeches, and-to have entered nearly tin inches into his body. By a miracle, however, it took a course which was harmless, and, though serious apprehosions were at fi rst en ter 'red by the surgeon who was called in, yet, by skilful trensftnt and care, he recovered in a fortnight, and is now not at all the worse for the injury. As soon as the prosecutor fell the prisoner took himself off haute, where meeting neighbour he said, " I. have been pricking a lawyer," but added that " he hoped he had not hurt him." After this 14 showed the weapon to his friend. and then buried it in Ida garden, where it was found on the following day, when he was taken into custody by the constable, to whom he ex pressed his sorrow and hope that he hail not seriously injured the lawyer. Mr. .I).ssLyr, addressing the jury for the prisoner, con tended that the wound in the abdomen might well have been an accidental our, received by the prosecutor during his struggle with the prisoner, who, however unjustif ia bl e th e preparation and carrying of such a weapon must be admitted to be, had certainly abstained from using it until he was himself' attacked by the prosecutor. Under all the circum stances of the case, therefore, he submitted that, taking a charitable view of the prisoner's conduct, the jury ought to dismiss the felony, and find him guilty only of an assa u lt. Ilis Tan:Dame haying summed up the evidence to the jury, left it to them to say whether they thought the wound arose from design or accident ; and, after some Mean minutes spent in deliberation, they returned a verdict of Guilty 04 the third count of the indictment. Mr. Baron PAeLE then sentenced him to be transported for 15 years. With this case the Bucks assizes terminated.

The Board of Trade have at last decided this most impor tant question, and, we feel bound to say, in a manner which has given very general satisfaction. Instead of permitting either party to embark in what, it must be admitted, is a very hazardous and enormously expensive undertaking— making a new and independent line out of London to Peter borough—the decision of the Board of Trade is, that the ex isting line from London to Cambridge shall (when improved by the proposed new station at Farringdon-street), be used as the approach to London, the line being continued from Cambridge to Lincoln, and from Lincoln to York, by the united companies of the Cambridge and Lincoln and the Direct Northern. In this way a new line to York is secured, having gra dients of a very superior quality, supplying Lincolnshire with railway acommodation, and favourable for the thorough traffic, by the great saving of distance over the existing route to Derby. The Direct Northern Company have, with great good sense and discretion, announced their intention of ac quiescing in this decision ; and as a powerful alliance, offen sive and defensive, we have reason to believe has been formed between them, the Cambridge and Lincoln and Eastern Coun ties, there cannot he a question that this well-conceived com bination of the line will be sanctioned by Parliament, and executed. The immense saving of capital effected by this arrange ment, the vastly superior entrance into London by the Far ringdon•street station, and the decidedly superior arrange ments of the Direct Northern as to their station at York and mode of junction with the Northern Railway, combined with the unequalled gradient 3 of the whole line, are reasons that will fully justify this decision of the Board of Trade; and however holders of London and York shares at 5 premium may grumble and growl, and however much those who went about saying " we are sure of the Board of Trade report in our favour," may now exclaim against that tribunal—we feel no manner of doubt that Parliament will support their decision. One uniform integral line will be established at the cheapest cost—uniform rates at the' lowest scale ; and, besides the passenger traffic, coals, cattle (dead and alive 4, agricultural produce, fish, &c., will be brought into the very centre of London; and collaterally with this, the property invested in the Eastern Counties scheme will be protected and improved. The present station at Shoreditch is to be re placed by one at Farringdon-street, the construction of which will be guaranteed by three powerful companies—the Eastern Counties, the Cambridge and Lincoln, and Direct Northern—with the sanction and approval of the Board of Trade in favour of that arrangement. It will be in vain for the now exploded soap bubble, the London and York, a Napoleon Hudson (who is now fighting his last campaign), successfully to resist this combination. They will lose the aid of the London and Birmingham Com pany, who have (it is believed) expressed their determination to support the Board of Trade, and we suspect that the Manchester and Leeds party will be detached from the Lon don and Yorkers. The granting of their Wakefield, Ponte fract, and Goole line has this tendency, and there seems no reason why they should sink themselves with the foundering vessel of the London and York.—iltlas. CLEANSING THE STREETS.--We are glad to observe that, amongst the many charities of the metropolis one has been started for giving work to the able-bodied poor in cleansing the streets. We do not think there is any charit able institution in the City which ought to be better sup ported. The able-bodied poor at this season are very numer ous, the streets much require to be cleansed, and certainly nothing would so much conduce to the health of the metro polis generally as the active employment in this way of those who are daily seeking for employment. THE SPITALFIELDS THEWEAVERS. PROFEC • TioN OF LABOUR. —On Friday night, at seven o'clock, a numerous meeting of the broad silk hand-loom weavers of Spitalfields and its vicinity was held at the La Patentes Chapel, Browne lane, Spitalfields, for the purpose of taking measures to unite with the weavers throughout the country, in order to obtain a legislative enactment for the protection of labour. Delegates attended from the weavers of Carlisle, Macclesfield, Middleton, Wigan, Leigh, &c. Mr. Tanner having been called to the chair, after much discussion, it was resolved that the Spitalfields weavers should unite with the weavers throughout the United Kingdom, and form a firm and compact union, of which London shall be the centre. ~ +r " PELICAN LIFE L) 70, LOMBARD-STREET Established 1797. ___JTORS.

TUCKER, Secretary. RESOLUTIONS passed at a MEETING of the LEATHER TRADE of LIVERPOOL and NEIGHBOUR HOOD, held in the Clarendon Rooms, on Satnrday, the 15th March, 1845, WILLIAM HENDERSON, Esq., in the Chair. Moved by Mr. ASHBURNER; seconded by Mr. Baowta :- 1. " That this Meeting views with considerable alarm the proposed measure of admitting Foreign Tanned Leather free of duty ; because every pound so imported will supplant, to the same extent, leather which would have been tanned in British premises by British work men." Moved by Mr. DANIEL TUNSTALL ; seconded by Mr. WARING : _ 2. " That while Itheltanners of this country should (in common with other manufacturers) be grateful for the proposed removal of import duty from raw material,' yet as tanned leather is no raw material,' but a manufactured. article, which occupies from four to twelve months in process ; and as all trades, of any importance, which have hitherto been protected by an import duty, have that protection still continued, the proposed alteration will bear almost exclusively hard upon the British tanner." Moved by Mr. JOHN PALMER ; seconded by Mr. WILLIAMS :- 3. " That the remission of Duties on Raw Hides, and materials for Tanning, forms no proportion whatever to the protecting Duty pro posed to be withdrawn from the manufactured article ; and that the foreign Tanner by avoiding the expensive freight of Bark and other Tanning materials; paying little rent, and possessing cheap labour, arising from lower priced food, will enjoy an advantage of about 10 per cent. on the value of Loather, and which would require nearly twopence per pound to counteract." Moved by Mr. THOMAS BEAHBANE ; seconded by Mr. WILLIAM OCKLESTON 4. " That the Tanning premises of this country constitute a large amount of property inapplicable to any other purpose : that the work men are a very numerous and an important body of men ; and were importation of Leather to be carried on to a great extent, the Tan Yards would become deteriorated in value, and many workmen be thrown out of employment." Moved by Mr. WARING ; seconded by Mr. BINNS. 5. " That were France, the United States, and Brazil, to recipro cate with this country in permitting the importation of British tanned leather into their territories free of duty, the British tanner would have little to fear from the proposed measure, as he could then com pete with success in some descriptions of leather with the foreigner, and thereby be compensated, by exportation, for any loss he would sustain in his home trade by the introduction of foreign tanned leather : But that until such reciprocation does take place in the hostile tariffs of these countries, it is most impolitic to grant that freedom of competition which they do not allow to the leather of British manufacture In return." Moved by Mr. ALFRED LAFONE ; seconded by Mr. BOWDEN. 6. " That while the British tanner would be supplanted in his trade to a considerable extent by the importation of inferior foreign tanned leather, the British public would not be benefited in the least degree by having cheaper shoes, as the tanner being changed, would make little or no difference in the general price of leather in this country ; but simply lessen the quantity produced by British labour." Moved by Mr. BOWDEN ; seconded by Mr. JOHN WARING, jun.:- 7. " That a petition to Parliament embodying the foregoing reso lutions be immediately drawn up and forwarded to Lord Sandon and Sir Howard Douglas, and the Chairman be authorised to sign the same on behalf of the meeting ; and further, that a deputation, con sisting of the Chairman, Mr. John Waring, Mr. T. S. Ashburner, and Mr. Thomas Beakbane, do proceed to London, and have an interview at the Board of Trade, for the purpose of urging the case." THE MINARET PARASOL, from the ele gance and symmetry of its form, is by far the most beautlful yet introduced ; the price does not exceed that of ordinary parasols, although a very graceful improvement has been effected in its con struction, which is such that it cannot get out of order. The attention and patronage of the public is requested to this elegant novelty, which can he had at any of the respectable Drapers, Ike.. and wholesale at all the wholesale dealers. OBSERVE—The silver runner Is stamped with the word MINARET. V AUXHALL COMPOSITE CANDLES Bs. 6d. per doz. PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES, 10s. Gd. per doz. GENUINE WAX CANDLES, 28s. per doz.
