ChriAicius. THE FETES AT BRUSSELS. B FLUMES, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—The review yes' zerday was one of the most brilliant and imposing tb at has been held in Brussels since the revolution of If 330. It was preceded by a religious ceremony, cele lrated at 10 o'clock, in the Church of Saints Michael and Gudule, in honour of those who fell on that oc ‘e,asion. At an early hour the bells of every church in the city announced the solemnity of the day; and at 8 o'clock 21 guns mingled their thunder with the more solemn sounds that issued from every steeple in Brussels ; while from the balconies, or the roof of every public building, and many private ones, the national flag of Belgium waved in the morning air, and at each moment the squares, and streets, and public places became alive with human beings. The ceremonial in the church was very much the same as on previous occasions. The religious service was celebrated in its usual imposing manner; and the officiating clergyman, clad in dark vestments, was assisted by a numerous body of priests. The cortege quitted the church only to proceed to the review ground on the Boulevards. The force drawn up there amounted to no less than 20,000 men, well armed and equipped, and admirably disciplined. The infantry comprised not less than eight regiments. The cavalry, a regiment of mounted C'nasseurs, one of Lancers, the fine regiment of the Guides, a regi ment of Cuirassiers, and one of Gendarmerie. The artillery included ten batteries. The officer who commanded in chief the manoeuvres of all arms was General L'Olivier. The Civic Guard of Brussels and its faubourgs was also placed en echelon on the ground, under the command of General Petilhan. The whole of this force had arrived on the ground, and occupied the positions assigned respectively to each part, at a little after half-past eleven o'clock. The King left the Royal Palace, accompanied by the Princes and his staff, a few minutes after one o'clock. His Majesty wore the uniform of a general officer of the civic guard, and the Princes the uni forms of their respective corps. The moment the Royal cortege made its appearance one immense shout burst from the multitude that filled the park and the boulevards, and as the father and the royal youths rode along the line of armed men, the cry of "Vive le Roi " Vivent les Princes! ' did not cease for a single moment. Reviews have been so often described, that it would be superfluous to say more than that the ordinary manoeuvres were gone through, and the defiling was executed with much precision. The civic guard presented itself very well, and as each section passed the men ac claimed the King and Princes with much energy and fervour. Indeed, so great and so general was the enthusiasm, that at one moment a part of the crowd burst in, and separated for a time the King and his sons from the staff, but it was to manifest still nearer their respect for his person. The King appeared much affected by these marks of attachment, and both by word and gesture he expressed his thanks. The Princess Charlotte, attended by the ladies of the Palace, witnessed the defiling from the grand balcony; she was subsequently joined there by the King and the Princes, and this became a signal for the renewal of the acclamations. The review was over at a quarter to five o'clock. A procession, also of a military kind, took place subsequently by torchlight. At seven o'clock a loud burst of music was beard from the Place du Palais, and not less than sixteen full bands all at once thundered forth a piece of national music. A de tachment of Cuirasssiers led the way, the bands of music followed, another detachment, also of Cuirassiers, formed the rear guard, and a crowd of persons walked on both sides with torches. The cortege proceeded through several parts of the city, and was hailed with acclamations wherever it passed. A banquet at the palace terminated the file of yes terday. The Ministers, high functionaries, civil and military, were among the guests. The King pre sided at one table, and the Duke of Brabant at the other. The fete of this day was also ushered in by a peal of bells from all the steeples. Precisely at eight o'clock the harmonic societies, some remarkable for the quaintness of their costume, assembled in the Place du Palais. Amongst those societies were to be seen detachments from the bands of the National Guards of the French frontier towns; Lille and Rou baix furnished strong contingents to the muster ; and Courtrai, Ninorf, Lacken, and other places in the neighbourhood of Brussels were fitly represented on the occasion of this competition for the prizes awarded to superior skill in music, as also to the best ten ue mili tary and civil. Those who belong to the civic corps wore their respective uniforms, and the:chilians were for the most part dressed in black with white neckcloths, and rosettes at the button- hole. The gathering took place to the sound of music and amidst the acclama tions of the crowd. At 9 o'clock the order was given to march, and the cortege, preceded by the Royal Society, called La Grand larmonie, moved on with hands playing to :yards the square of the Hotel de Ville by the Place Royale, the Montagne de la Cour, the rue de la Madeleine, the herb market, and the rue de la Colline. The societies repre sented by communes went in advance of those of towns of the second rank, and these last of towns of the first. Each society carried its ensign at its head, adorned with streamers, and with the name in gold letters of the town or district to which it be longed. They were escorted by a detachment of the Sapeura-pompiers of the civic guard. They all pro ceeded to the town house, when after a long time a jury decided on their being worthy of the two first prizes, and the names of the victors proclaimed by the Bourgmestre. But not the least curious part of the fete was the gathering of the sharpshooters, archers, and crossbow-men. The competitors for the prizes mustered at ten o'clock in the rue de la Loi, and drew up in the order pre scribed by the programme ; then, the ar quebuse men leading the way, preceded by military music, with the respective banners, some of which were of rich crimson velvet, adorned with massive embroidery, the spear heads tipped with rows of rings, from which hung clusters of medals of silver and bronze, or silver gilt, the bands moved—a detach- meat of mounted Guides opening the march and closing it—along the rue Royale, the place Royale, the Montagne de la Cour, the rue de la Madeleine, and the rue des Friperes, to the place of the Mint, where they drew up in three lines. Here the medals and prizes were distributed by the Burgomaster in the name of the Corporation to the successful com petitors of this modern Wappenshaw. The prizes consist of sums of money, varying from 1,200 f. to 125 f., and include nearly all sorts of manly exercise, as well as firing at marks with the musket, or cross bow. A grand ball will be given tonight to the King, by the Society of Artists and Litt6rateurs, in the Palace which formerly belonged to the Prince of Orange', the late King of Holland. The Palace was purchased from the Prince by the city, and will be placed at the disposal of the Duke of Brabant, as soon as his age entitles him to a separate establishment. An addition or extension of the Palace to the boule vard in the rear has been constructed' of timber, in order to afford more space to the numerous guests that are invited. At 12 o'clock to• day the work was not yet completed. The persons employed in decorat ing the interior of the structure were the artists them- selves who are giving the entertainment. The King drove into town at half-past 12 o'clock from Lacken. The city continues to be ornamented with tri umphal arches of foliage, and the houses with flags and banners of every size and form, some of them very tasteful. An avenue of artificial trees, poles with branches of broom around them, bound with garlands of ivy, extends from the Montage de la Cour to the Port de Cologne, and from the summit of each rustic arch waves the national flag. The Grande Place is more elaborately ornamented, and the balconies of the Hotel de Ville are covered over with flags, streamers, vases of flowers, escutcheons on which are emblazoned the arms of the provinces. In the centre of the place is raised a Moorish kiosk, and the fronts of the houses are interlaced by festoons of foliage and flowers. The Place de la Monnaie, the Rue de la Loi, and Place de la Nation are similarly ornamented. The crowds of strangers, English, Germans, and French, flocking in by the railways, render it difficult to get even the simplest accommodation at the hotels. The weather is splendid. THE SUN, LONDON, GERMANY. The Journal du Francfort of the 21st instant says, that with regard to the affairs of Schleswig-Holstein, the contending interests which surround the question induce the apprehension that it will not be settled so promptly; for it is a question in which the German Confederation watches the interests of Germany, as contrasted with those of Denmark. THE NETHERLANDS. From the Dutch papers of the 2sd, it appears that the Second Chamber has voted the address in reply to the speech from the throne. The address is a para phrase of the speech, with the exception of a single phrase, viz.:—" The Chamber expects during the present session, and without any further delay, the presentation of several laws commanded by the consti tution, and especially the law on public instruction, in which the welfare of the whole nation is so com pletely in volved." • BONREL 7 VAN HOGENLANDEN has; been ap pointed by the KING President of the Second Cham ber. M. 13oNEEL possesses the entire confidence of the Chamber, of the press, and of the country, and has accepted the high office assigned to him in an eloquent speech, in which he manifested moderate liberalism, and his desire to preside with impartiality. Prince HENRY is gone to Luxemburg to open the session of the Chamber of Deputies. TURKEY. Intelligence has reached Constantinople of the re cent doings in Daghistan. An armistice has been concluded between Prince WoaoNzorr and Sheik SLLAMIL, by which the Russians abandon all their conquests and forts, and withdraw beyond the line of the Kouban ; SHAMIL, on the other hand, guaran tees to disarm his warriors, and not to molest the ca ravans trading to Azerbaijan. The armistice is for one year, at the expiration of which a treaty of peace will be concluded. Campbell were servants to attend upon 'him, but failed ; as also to deny that he had been lashed to the stanchion, and prevented from coming on deck when ever he wanted. They also attempted to prove that he was a drunkard, which was denied by the crew, and also that he had cruelly used a sailor-boy, which the boy himself disproved; that he had generally been insulting in his manner to Captains Vesey and Neill, which, however, could not be proved. After trying to charge him with blasphemy and embezzlement, they completely broke down at the fourth witness, and declined to call another, although they had a list of 13 soldiers, two women, and the disrated mate, to pull them through, if their case had contained within it even the shadow of a justification. After a long, learned, and very impartial address from the Chief Justice, the jury retired, and returned with a verdict of guilty against the defendants, and awarded—Damages, 2001. The Turkish Government has just announced offi cially to the foreign missions that the fleet will not go out on its customary cruise this year. THE SEIZURE OF THE LEVENSIDE. In copying the following from the St. Helena paper, we should remark that it appears anything but an impartial report of a law case : (From the St. Helena Advocate of July 17.) This interesting and, from the peculiar circum stances attending it, exciting case, oame on at an early period of the day, and drew together an unusual num ber of spectators in the court. Taken altogether, it is one of the most extraordinary cases ever tried at St. Helena. More interest wts felt in this trial than would other wise have been in consequence of the marked and highly improper interference of the Go vernment. It will be in the recollection of our readers that on the 22th May the Levenside arrived in charge of the first mate, the captain being in chains, a prisoner in the hold. It will also be borne in mind that as soon as possible after the arrival of the vessel CaptaiuVesey, an cheer in charge of a detachment of artillery,went to the police-court and laid an information against the captain for assault with intent to murder Captain Vesey. A warrant was granted for the ap prehension of the master of the vessel, and put into the hands of Hayes, the police-sergeant, who immediately went on board and found the captain a prisoner in the hold, with a chain fastened around his wrists with two padlocks, and also with a sentinel over him. On giving a ree ceipt to the soldier, Sergeant Hayes received Captain Campbell in charge, and took him in custody to the police-office, where, after a l ong i nves ti gat i on, h e was committed for trial, but immediately bailed out by the agents for his vessel. As soon as Captain Campbell reached the police court, and had obtained the assistance of a solicitor, he wished to lay an information against Captains Vesey and Neill, and others, for piracy ; but the magistrates would not proceed in the matter at that time. When the police magistrate and the summary judge had taken their seats to proceed in this case, the public were much surprised to see the Colonial Secretary, an unpaid magistrate, take a seat also, it being gene rally understood that he had so done at the request of the Government. This was an unusual circumstance, as this gentleman rarely takes a seat on the bench ex cept at the request of the other magistrates in cases of emergency. Suspicion was immediately excited in the public mind that Government influence was busily at work, as the sequel ultimately proved. The consequence of this step was that unusual interest was felt in the issue of the trial, as it was immediately seen that the case had altogether assumed another aspect, and the whole proceedings were, therefore, watched by the public with very unusual jealousy and mistrust. Another feature in the cause was that the police ma gistrate, who had only been appointed a week or two before to that responsible office, was the colonial se cretary's clerk; and, therefore, immediately under his influence. In the course of the investigation an objection was started to Captain Campbell's solicitor (who acted for his father) on the ground that he was the judge's clerk; but this objection was for a time overruled, and he took an active part in conducting Ceptain Campbell's defence. Immediately after the committal of the captain a short narrative of the seizure of the Levenside, with the proceedings of Captains Vesey and Neill, ap peared in our columns, on which Captain V ese y im mediately wrote to his Excellency the Governor, and complained that the article in question gave a one sided account, and that it was not altogether true. On the receipt of this letter the Governor sent for one of the Government servants, and said that Captain Vesey had accused him of being the author, which was in stantly avowed, and the truth of the article defended. After the authorship had been avowed and fully ad mitted, the judge's clerk was also sent for, and closely questioned as to whether he bad not some connection with the paper, which was instantly and truly denied. Immediately after this the judge's clerk was prevented from acting on behalf of Cap tain Campbell, which placed him in a very difficult and critical situation. Two of the magistrates, the Colonial Secretary, and his clerk, acted together in everything, and only consented to go on with Captain Campbell's informa tion for piracy till after he had been committed for trial, and then declined to take any further steps in the matter. Soon after this it was rumourei about that the sworn depositions taken in the police-court were ac tunny in print and about to be published in the Government Gazette, by, or at least with, the consent of the Colonial Secretary and his clerk, thus taking away from Captain Campbell the only means he would have es hen on trial of testing the memory and vera city of the prosecutor and his many witnesses. This unjustifiable act was, however, protested against, and his Honour the Judge of the Supreme Court caused the publication of these documents to be stopped, but not until after some copies had got into circulation, although the prisoner and the clerk of the peace alone have the right to demand copies of such docu • merits. Captain Campbell entered an action against Cap tains Vesey and Neill for false imprisonment, when it soon became known that Captain T. B. Knipe, the colonial aide-de-camp and coroner, had undertaken to +defend them. From the general proceedings and tactics of the prosecutors, it was seen that they were aiming at a conviction, apparently for the purp ose o f re d uc i ng t h e damages aid against them in Captain Campbell's action, and to obtain this conviction they strained every nerve, but they were defeated. The charge of the judge to the grand jury was eagerly expected, and as eagerly listened to; for it was felt by all par ties that upon that charge materially depended the finding or non-finding of the bill of indictment. The Judge's charge was plain, clear, and to the point. He explained how the law generally bore upon the case, and instructed them to consider the in tentions of Captain Campbell when he threatened to use his pistol against Captain Vesey. The jury then retired to examine the witnesses; and after a long and protracted investigation they re turned to the Supreme Court, and it was found they had ignored the bill of indictment, which appeared to give great satisfaction to every one not connected with the military. The indictment actually con tained no less than seven counts, so that the Govern ment gave the prosecutors every chance of securing a conviction, and thus made their failure more signally marked. The result of the civil action appeared to excite as much interest as the finding of the grand jury in the criminal case. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 26. John Morris was indicted for having unlawfully assaulted one Maria Cooke with intent to commit a rape. Mr. O'Brien conducted the case for the prosecu tion, and Mr. Ballantine defended the prisoner. It appeared that the proseeutrix is the wife of a policeman, 465 K; that she lives in Sidney•street, Newport• terrace ; and that between twelve and one o'clock on the morning of the sth inst. she was on her way home, in company with a friend of the name of Mary Green, at the house of whose sister they had been passing the evening. As they were going along the road by the gardens between Bethnal green and Three-colt-lane they heard a man following them at a quick pace. That man proved to be the prisoner, and on coming up he addressed them, but they told him they did not wish to have anything to say to him. The prisoner, however, renewed his conversation, and presently put his hand on the shoulder of the prosecutrix, who insisted that he should leave her alone, as she was a mar ried woman. The prisoner persisted in his attentions, and having placed his arm round her waist proceeded to treat her with gross indecency. She thereupon screamed as loudly as she was able, and again declared herself to be a married woman. Her friend, seeing the lengths to which the prisoner was proceeding, called for the police. Eventually an officer came up, and was a witness as he was ap proaching them of the indecent conduct of the pri soner, who was in due time taken into custody. Miss Green corroborated the evidence of the prose cutrix. Mr. BALLANTINE, for the prisoner, said it was im possible for him to struggle against the evidence which had been given. Both of the witnesses appeared to be very prudent women, and there could be no doubt but that the account they had given of the transaction was correct. The truth was the prisoner was in drink at the time of the commission of the assault, for which act he now expressed his contrition, and was prepared to make any compensa tion in his power. The jury found the prisoner Guilty of the common assault. The Learned JUDGE sentenced him to three months' imprisonment. Mr. O'BRIEN was sorry to inform the Court that since this transaction the husband and the prosecutrix had lived a life of great unhappiness. The Learned JUDGE remarked that the husband ought to be proud of such a wife, even if it were only for the manner in which she had behaved in court that day in giving her evidence. Elizabeth Goodman, the widow of Thomas Good man, who has died since the commencement of these proceedings, Jane Champ, Esther Davies, and Rachel Davies, pleaded Guilty to an indictment charging them with having kept a brothel in Queen's Head court, Windmill-street, Haymarket. Mr. Ballantine appeared for the parish authorities of St. James's, Westminster ; and Mr. Clarkson, with Mr. Trevethan Spicer, represented the several defendants. The defendants having pleaded Guilty, Mr. BALLANTINE stated that the parish authorities had been compelled to institute these proceedings in consequence of frequent complaints having been made by the inhabitants of the neighbourhood. The prin cipal offender had been called to his final account since the commencement of these proceedings, and his widow now appeared at that bar as the chief offender, while the other defendants would seem to have acted in the capacity of servants only. It should be stated that the owner of the house in question was Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey, the Commissioner of the City Police, and he could not but feel regret that that gentleman should be the owner of property of such a description; but being so he now bad the satisfac tion of handing him the key of the premises which the widow Goodman had given up. He could not but anticipate that Mr. Harvey would now gladly accept the key with feelings of delight at having got rid of such a disreputable tenant. He had been astonished to learn that upon a former application being made to Mr. Harvey that gentleman had said that the rent had always been well and regularly paid by Goodman, and, therefore, that he was not only disinclined to take any cognizance of the complaint, but should refuse to accept the key. He was glad, however, to see Mr. Harvey present in court, and he now, therefore, tendered him the key. Tne Learned JUDGE—WeII, Mr. Harvey, I sup pose you will not now refuse to accept the key ? Mr. Harvey should certainly not accept the key without having previously made some observations in reply to what had now unjustly and unfairly fallen from the Learned Counsel. He had travelled 600 miles for the purpose of being in attendance upon the present occasion. He had come from Lucerne, where he was when a letter reached him intimat ing that this case would come on that day. To enable him to arrive in time he had travelled three days and nights, and now he had come he bad been greatly surprised to hear the observations which had been made by the Learned Counsel. That statement was most untrue, for he had no knowledge of the purpose to which this house had been applied. He had not accepted Goodman as a tenant until he had written to a solicitor of the name of Atkinson, in Carey-street, to ascertain whether Goodman was a respectable man. The reply of Mr. Atkinson was that Goodman was a respectable man, and that he had known him to be so for a number of years. With such a reference he could have no hesi tation in accepting Goodman as a tenant, and the man had always been very regular in the payment of his rent. Now, he did not know, as had been stated by the Learned Counsel, that it was a matter for deep regret for a gentleman to have a tenant who was regu lar in the payment of his rent ; but regular this tenant had been, and he had regarded the fact as a source of gratulation rather than for regret. This was one of several houses he held under the Crown; and upon receiving the letter from the solicitor to the parish complaining of the conduct of this particular house he had applied to another tenant of his (" Jem Burn"), who occupied a public-house opposite, and from that person he had _ ascertained that there was no The plaintiff, Captain Campbell, laid his damages at 2,0001. It was tried before a special jury, obtained after a deal of challenging and re-challenging between the amateur advocates who conducted the respective cases ; for as the opinions of the jury in the long run are generally known in a small and isolated commu nity like that of St. Helena, this is a matter of the greatest importance, as indeed it is in all case s ; but here it is, perhaps, the_ most critical part of the business. Cause for complaint against Goodman's house. With such a statement from another tenant he felt that he was not justified in adopting the course which had been suggested by other parties, that of turning out an old tenant, still less did he think that he was open to the remarks which had been made against him by the Learned Counsel that day. He had been paid 401. a year for the last 21 years for this house, and he had no doubt but that he should receive Captain Campbell's solicitor, Mr. Fowler, b6ing in eeble health, applied to the Court to be allowed the assistance of a friend to examine the witnesses, and finally addressed the jury, which was immediately granted ; but no sooner had the party named by Mr. Fowler taken his seat and commenced operations, than a letter was sent by the defendants to the Go vernor, who immediately sent for him (he being a Government officer), and threatened him with imme diate dismissal if he presumed to plead in the case. Thus was Captain Campbell thwarted and deprived of the only one who knew all the bearings of the case. In this critical emergency, however, Captain H. A. White, of the William Gibson, then in the bay, volun teered to conduct the trial, although he had not seen a single document connected with the matter, and was utterly unacquainted with the details of the case till he picked them up as he proceeded. On the part of the plaintiff it was proved that he bad been seized by the military passengers on board his ship, acting under the command and at the in stigation of Captains Vesey and Neill. That in de fiance of his orders the booby hatch had been taken off by Captain Vesey's men. That he had been seized, carried into the hold, and lashed to a stanchion for 12 hours in a constrained and painful position, being for that time scarcely able to stir; and that afterwards his hands were fastened together by a chain cut from the canhooks, secured by padlocks, which were only taken off at meals and then put on again. It was also proved that he was not allowed to go on deck at any time, as a sentinel was kept over him night and day, and none of his crew ever allowed in any way to see or even communicate with him. He was not allowed on deck even to answer the calls of nature, tubs being used for that purpose. That the military took complete possession of the vessel, by Captain Vesey's orders, who appointed the disrated mate to act as captain, and a soldier as the steward. It was also shown that he had materially suffered in health, and appeared pale and weak when brought on shore. All this the defendants attempted to justify by asserting [that the life of Captain Vesey had been threatened, and that a loaded pistol had been held at his breast, and the trigger actually pulled; but it could not be proved that either the pistol was cocked, or that Captain Campbell had pulled the trigger. Nor could the defendants deny that Captain Campbell bad warned them, that if they interfered with him, or prevented his men obeying his orders, he would use the pistol, or that he had told the soldiers to put down the same rent for it for many years to come. He would now accept the key under the direction of the Learned Judge, but in no other way, and he would again say that the Learned Counsel was not in any way justified in making the statement he had upon the present occasion. Mr. BALLANTINE said that, after what had fallen from Mr. Harvey, he felt called upon, in his own justification to read the letter which had been sent to that gentleman by the veqry-clerk upon the subject of the complaints which had been made by the inhabi tants of the scenes of disgust which were being enacted in this house of Goodman's. Mr. Harvey—And read my answer. Mr. BALLANTINE—Oh, yes; Mr. Harvey should have no cause to complain, for he would read the whole of the correspondence. The Learned Counsel then read the correspondence, which was as follows " St. James, Westminster. "50, Poland-street, July 28, 1849. "Sir,--On inquiring into the statements made in the enclosed communication, I find them not at all exagge rated, and being informed that you are the owner of the house in question, I deem it right to make you ac quainted with the circumstances, in the confident hop e that you will be able to rid the inhabitants of thenin sance without the interference of the parish authorities. "I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " G. BUZZARD." " D. W. Harvey, Eeq., 26, Old Jewry." (Enclosure.) "July 11, 1849. " Sir,—l am sorry to trouble you with this letter, but the whole of Walker's-court is thrown into great canfu fusion, and none of the shopkeepers can ga i n t h e i r liveli hood, unless you, as the parish soli c it or , di tc h arge your duty in getting rid of a , most infamous b aw dy-h ouse, carr ied on by a person of the name of Mrs. G :oduaan, at Queen's Head-court, Windmill -street, Haymarket, op posite Join Burns', which house is open, day and night, for female prostitution under twelve years of age. The neighbours has been watching as well as Sergeant Tyce, who is on duty; for ho can inform you the scenes that take place every night at that house is most horrid, and do call your immediate attention to get rid of zilch an infamous house, to prevent the destruction of young fe males. This woman and her husband has been found guilty for a cimilar offence fur the pariah of St. Clement's in the Strand, and are nuder bail. It is to be hoped thet you will see Ser gean t T yco C , w h o i s on duty, nod he will inform you of the dreadful house opened in the perish for robberies, as well as female prostitution car ried on, as no children is safe to go out and take a walk but being enticed by women and taken to this home of in famy.

J. W., a neighbour and lodger. " G. Buzzard, Esq." Mr. Harvey's answer was the following : "Old Jewry, July 30, 1849. " Sir,—l am obliged by your communication, which much surprised me. Goodman, the tenant, was recom mended to m© as a respectable person and client by Mr. Atkinson, of Carey -street. The report you made to me appears to negative this representation. I shall most readily concur in any course you can recommend by which such disgraceful proceedings can be promptly suppressed and their authors punished. "I am, Sir, your obliged servant, "G. Buzzard, Esq." " D. W. HARVEY. On the 9th of August, 1849, Mr. Buzzard again wrote to Mr. Harvey as follows : " Sir,—Since my letter of the 28(h ult. I have had the clergy of the parish with me MI the subject of the house therein alluded to, which I and is rated in ) our books as No. 5, Old Crown.court. The only court,' I can recommend you to take is to exercise your authority as landlord to get rid, without delay, of such a disre putable tenant, as I am quite certain that if the ease be allowed to be carried to the Middlesex Sessions the As si<tint Judge will, on hearing who is the owner of the premises—an inquiry which he always makes —Pmpryss no little surprise at the parish being compelled to resort to such proceedings. " I am, & c ., "D. W. Harvey, Esq." "GEO. BUZZARD. Mr. Ballantine, having left other letters unread, said —After this it would be for the Court to form an opinion as to Mr. Harvey's knowledge of the charac ter of this house, and then on evidence he could pro duce as to his having refused to accept the key when it had been tendered to him. Mr. Harvey—That is not true ; the key never was tendered to me. The Learned JUDGE said they were not there to try Mr. Harvey, or whether that gentleman did or did not refuse to accept the key of this house. Doubtless Mr. Harvey would now take the key, and he would also, no doubt, be more careful as to the character of the person whom he in future should take as a tenant. Mr. Harvey begged his Lordship to bear in mind that he had received a highly respectable character of Goodman from a solicitor of the name of Atkinson, whose letter he had in his hand at that moment. The Learned JUDGE had not forgotten that fact, and be would give a caution to that Mr. Atkinson to be more careful in speaking to the respectability of per sons in future, and not to give a good character to improper persons. That individual had better use more caution in future, or he might chance to hear of his conduct through the medium of a rule nisi in the Court of Queen's Bench. 'With respect to the present defendants the key of the house was now given up, and, consequently, the nuisance complained of was abated. The Court would therefore order the defendants to enter into their own recognizances in the sum of 201., to come up for judgment when called upon. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Henry Franklin was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with cutting and wounding with a knife two police-constables, and Charlotte fledges was charged with rescuing the prisoner from lawful custody. Thomas Roche, 35 F, said—About half-past seven last Friday night I was on duty in Dudley-street. A gentleman told me there was a young man attempting to stab his mother in Monmouth-court. I went there and saw the prisoner Franklin lying on the female prisoner. I got him by the neck and pulled him from the top of her, and got him on his legs, and three or four women assisted the woman on her feet. I asked him what he had been doing. The prisoner said they had been upsetting him and putting him out of temper. I then asked him if he would go quietly home if I would let him. He said he would. He had not got above twenty yards when he struck a woman in the face and felled her to the ground. He then tried to make off, but I got him by the neck, and saw she (Hedges) was bleeding at the face. She gave him in charge for assaulting her. I pushed him out of the court by the neck into Little Earl-street. At the same time Aspinshaw, 37 F, came to my assist ance. Wa had not go t above twenty yards when the prisoner struck me in the face, and I felt blood run ning down my face. We want a little further, and he made a jump, and we all three fell down together. Franklin got up before we did, and kept his hand cutting about from one side to the other. He then made a plunge at Aspinshaw, who slid di rectly that he was stabbed in the thigh. Franklin then made a run at me, and I exclaimed, "I am stabbed in the thigh." Smith, 43 F, came up then, and Aspinshaw called out, "Take care, he has got a knife in his hand. Strike him on the arm, and we'll try and get the knife from him." Aspinshaw took it from him, and Smith, 43 F, struck him and knocked him down. Franklin then said he intended to kill every belonging to the police, that he had long wanted a chance, and he had got it at last. The pri soner Hedges and another woman got hold of me by the neck, and I was flung down twice by them. I have been confined at home ever since until to-day. Franklin said at the station it was his intention to take our lives, and he would stab every one belonging to justice, and even the m ag i s t ra t e h e was taen before. Smith, 43 F, corroborated the above evidence. Aspinshaw, 37 F, said—On Friday night, the 19Ji inst., I went to Roche's assistance in Monmouth court. The prisoner Franklin was then in his custody. After we got some distance the prisoner kicked me and we all came down. Franklin got up and was flourishing his hands about him ; then he ran at me and stabbed me in the thighs with the knife produced. I eaid I was stabbed, and that be had got a knife. Smith then came up and hit Franklin on the wrist with his staff, while I took the knife from Elm. I bled very much and was taken to Charing-cross Hos pital, where I have been up to this day. Mr. H. Dalton, house-surgeon at Charing-cross Hospital, said,—On Friday, the 19th inst., Police constable Aspinshaw was brought to the hospital in a weak state. I examined him, and found two punc tured wounds on each thigh, both bleeding. The wounds were deep, and in a very important region. I have also examined the witness Roche, and find on his right thigh a punctured wound, similar to those on Aspinshaw. I should say the knife produced (a formidable looking instrument, about four inches in length) is a likely instrument to have inflicted those wounds. The prisoners, who said they were much the worse for drink at the time, and' knew not what they did, were fully committed for trial. WORSHIP-STREET. Mr, Edward Nunn, sen., and Mr. Edward Nunn, jun., cab proprietors and livery stable keepers in the Curtain-road, Shorediteh, were charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with the following violent and aggra vated assault upon Thomas Gouch, a constable of the G division, while in the execution of his dnty. The complainant stated, that while on duty in the Curtain-road, about half-past one o'clock on Saturday morning last, he heard loud cries of " Murder," and " Police," accompanied by a suppressed exclamation I of " Oh, d on 't!" f rom th e d e f en d ant ' s y ar d, an d upon hastening there to ascertain the cause of it was pre vented obtaining admission by the gates being closed. He called out that he was an officer and demanded admission, but no notice was taken of it, and, as the cries still continued, he placed his back against the wicket-gate, forced it open, and, upon entering the yard, found the younger defendant holding a man down against the wheels of a carriage and beating him severely with his fists. He ran forward to rescue the man from the ill-usage of his assailant, but was immediately struck by the younger defendant, and the elder at the same time seized him by the neck, and after severely shaking him relin qu i s hi ng hi s h o ld, but was directly succeeded by his son, who quitted the man he had been previously beating, and struck him repeated blows upon the body. He extended his arm to keep him off, reminding him that he was only performing his duty, when the elder de fendant again seized him by the neck, and, forcing him back some distance, rapped his head violently against the brick wall several times, struck him a blow under one of his ears, which again dashed his head against the wall, and forced his thumb back with such violence that he was apprehensive for some time it was broken. An active struggle then ensued between them, when several other officers fortu nately arrived and rescued him from further illusage, but he had sustained such injuries in the course of the contest that he had been unfit for duty ever since. Symes, 111 G, also deposed to being attracted by the cries of "Murder" in the defendant's yard, and that upon the first witness rescuing the man whom Mr. Nunn, Jun., was beating, the elder defendant came up, seized him by the collar, and threatened to throw him out of the place ; he then left him for an instant, but immediately after renewed the attack, and repeatedly knocked his bead against the wall as he had described. The witness added, in cross-exa mination, that in the course of the struggle the defen dant's daughter was thrown down, while he was en deavouring to keep Mrs. Nunn back, and that the reason the defendants were not at once taken into custody was because one of the constables, who ar rived at the conclusion of the contest, advised the complainant to take their names and proceed against them in the - usual course by summons. The evidence of the preceding witnesses was also confirmed by that of two cabdrivers, named Banbury and Raynes, the former of whom stated that he was the person whom the younger defendant was beating at the time of the officer forcing an entrance, and that the cause of it was that, after being out with one of the defendants' cabs from eight o'clock in the morning till twelve at night, he did not bring home a suffi ciency of money to satisfy the defendants expectations, upon which, after searching his pockets, they p unc h e d him about and beat him in such a manner as to neces sitate his calling " Murder" and "Police," in the way the officers had stated. D'ExAcovwx oentenced the elder defendant to Dor pay the full penalty o f 5/, or i n default to sta nd % l mitted to the House of C orrec tion for two ron'ity and the younger defend an t t o pay , a m itigated PO z`f of 55., or in default to be committed for a tern three days.
