Foremost both in position and importance among the contributions to the New Monthly for November, is an official paper describing the intrigues of a Russo- Austrian alliance in the Danubian Principalities. From this remarkable and most perspicuous contri bution, entitled " Foreign Influence on the Banks of the Danube," the reader may obtain an instant and vivid appreciation of the difficulties of late years clue. tering more and more thickly over the city of Bucha rest, and generally speaking also over the whole of the provinces of Wallachia and Moldavia. Previously to explaining the real position of affairs in 'those unfortunate principalities, the writer—evi dently master of his subject—dissipates all the false impressions abroad as to the nature of the dis turbances recently taking place in Bulgaria. All those disturbances he attributes to the despicable in trigues of the Viennese and the St. Petersburgh Go vernments, intrigues tending perpetually, if possible, to embroil the Christian peasantry with their rulers, the Mussulmen ; and most justly attributes this ferocious policy in the instance of the Kaiser to a spiteful thirst for vengeance on the Sultan Caliph, for the hospitalities shown by him last year to the fugi tive Hungarians, and in the instance of the Czar to the lust of realising that ambition so long cherished by the imperial lords of the Muscovites. Rather should we have said in reference to Russia, that the author of this masterly paper on the Danubian Pro vinces laughs to scorn the notion of the Czar ever ex tending his rule to the waters of the Golden Horn, insist ing that Nicholas is too sagacious to dream of ever occu pying with his legions the palaces and harems of Con stantinople, and that consequently all his military efforts and diplomatic intrigues against the Ottoman Porte arise solely out of his anxiety to preserve the confines of his dominions as much 28 possible from the contaminating touch of liberal institutions, or from the yet more subtle infection of liberal ideas and principles. As well, thinks the writer in the New Monthly, might the Brother of the Moon dream of eating with his chop-sticks in the Elysee or in Buck ingham Palace, as the Czar indulge in visions of sailing as a conqueror through the channel of the Dar danelles. He recognises too much vigour in the councils of the Sultan, too much vitality in the Turkish Government, too much enterprise arid en lightenment in the views of the Osmanli states men to imagine for an instant the prac ticability of the Cossacks ever affixing the banner of the double eagle to the minarets of Byzantium. In the generous, but still impartial esti mate, thus formed of the Administration at Constan tinople, we cordially and entirely coincide, as those might readily conjecture who have watched our arguments for some years past, in the leading columns of this journal, in regard to the infamous and unjusti fiable occupation of Wallachia and Moldavia by the barbarian soldiers of the Autocrat. Against this oc cupation the intelligent correspondent of the New Monthly inveighs with just and earnest indignation, depicting it as diametrically opposed in its character to the stipulations of the treaty of Adrianople, a treaty which, as far back as 1460, proclaimed the Sultan the sovereign lord paramount of those principalities, and constituting the Autocrat as the potentate, simply guaranteeing the carrying out of the views of that famous compact. We are rejoiced to observe the tempered but emphatic words of com mendation passed by the writer on Prince Stirbeg, in 'whose talents we would fain recognise some assurance of the ultimate redemption of the provinces from .Russian domination. The boyards alone are spoken of as men having some interest in maintaining the authority of the Czar at Bucharest, and even in their regard we cannot but imagine that the fancied advantage is purely supposititious, and that in the restoration to its due predominance of the influence of Turkey, the boyards, as well as the prince and the peasantry, would ultimately recognise the best assurances of happiness. Respecting the so called Bulgarian insurrection, it is said that mediately Austrian and Russian intriguers were to blame, and that immediately the culprits were Marouf Aga and Sherif Effendi. While passing judgment thus ad versely upon those officers, a tribute of respect and admiration is offered, on the other hand, to Yasuf Bey and to Ahmed Vefyk Effendi. We are gratified to observe, from the heading of this itnportant political statement in the New Monthly, that the subject will be resumed. The argument is already too lucid and valuable not to render the reader solicitous t o witness its continuation. Among the lighter contributions to the magazine are many deserving this month of es pecial praise, imparting, as they cannot fail to do in perusal, some sort of animation to the suicidal month of November. " London Locomotion, or the Cab Stand," is a capital essay upon that haunt of public conveyances, penned partly in the style of Pierce Egan, and partly in that of Charles Dickens. " M y Cambridge Coach," to the uninitiated might sound as upon a kindred subject, though there are thousands who will not need to be told that the coach is not a vehicular contrivance but a man, in this instance one Mr. Staunton.

TDE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, N O;VEMBER 2, 1850. THE PAPAL AGGRESSION. DEPUTATION TO THE BISHOP OF LONDON. Yesterday morning a deputation from the clergy of the city of ,London waited upon the Bishop of London, at London House, St. James's, for the purpose of pre senting to bit Lordship a memorial from the clergy of the Archdeaconry of London on the subject of the re cent Papal aggression, The Rey. IL R. Roxby read to his Lordship the fol lowing memorial:— _ _ . " 11fy Lord,—We approach your Lordship with senti ments of sincere respect and Direction. }laving heard with indignation and concern of the recent aggression of the Bishop of Rome, in appointing by assumed authority a Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, and in assign ing, under a papal bull, certain districts of the country to the spiritual jurisdiction of clergy entitled Bishops of the Runtish Church, we feel it oar duty to declare our resolution, with God's help and blessing, to co operate us far as we are abl e i n guar ding th rites and privileges of our native Church from the astaults of ioreign — and usurped dominion. They call to mind the fact that the faith of Christ, in its purity of doctrine and worship, had been planted and established in the realm of Britain some centuries before the mission from the RoiniAi See, in the time of Pope Gregory, had set foot upon our shores. We know when the Church of Rome had, by its unscriptural decrees and idolatrous practices, cor rupted the primitive faith, with %hat joy the call to re furmation vim received in this land, and at how great price our religious freedom was vindicated and recovered by our Proteatant forefathers; and we believe and trust that there exists, in the laity as well as the clergy of our communion, such a hearty wish for the main tenance of the Christian truth in all its integrity and purity, as effectually to resist this novel and pre sumptuous movement; which appears to us to be nothing less than un affront to the Queen's Majesty, and the lawful prelates, clergy, and people of this Protestant kingdom, and a bold attempt to u nd er mine, and even tually to destroy, our constitution in church and state. " That your Lordship will be pleased, under the blessing and guidance of the head of the Church, to offer your powerful counsel in our present conjuncture. " We cannot conclude this memorial without request ing to offer to your Lordship our best and warmest thanks for the dignified and uncotnprowisitsg Christian tone of your reply to our Rev. Brethren at Westminster, and we ever pray, &e." The Bishop of LONDON said that, having read the memorial presented to him by the clergy of the city of London, he wished to express his entire concurrence in its principles. It was so important, however, that he would rather abstain at present from making any formal reply. The Rev. H. R. ROXBY, On the part of the London clergy, thanked his Lordship for the courtesy which on this, and every other occasion, his Lordship had exhi bited towards his rev. brethren.—The deputation then withdrew. LMEHOUSR.—Yesterday, a meeting of the laity of this parish was held at the Town.hall, Li me h ouse —th e Rev. George Roberts in the chair. The speakers unani mously condemned the recent Papal aggression, and re solutions to that effect were agreed to. An address to the Bishop of the diocese was also passed. THE PROTESTANT FEELING OF THE COUNTRY.— We join in the hope, and look fo r w ard to the issue of the struggle with confidence, becaus e we know th at the vast ma jority of the people of England are as firml y opposed to the incursions of Rome as were the ir mart y red foref athers. The Protestant feeling of the coun tr y will soon be roused , and we had a striking proof in our town on Tuesday night that is by no means dormant at present. Mrs. Fanny Kemble was reading the fine historical play of King John, and when she came to the reply of the monarch to the Romish car dinal— " Thou can'st not, cardinal, devise a name So slight, unworthy, and ridiculous, To charge me to an answer, as the Pope. Tell him this tale, and from the mouth of England Add this much more That no Italian priest Shall Tythe or toll in my dominions." The last line drew forth a long and spontaneous cheer, which amply proved two things—that the language of Shaks pere is fitted for all ages, and that resistance to the tyranny of Rome exists, as an innate principle, in the minds of Eng lishmen.—Cleltenham Journal. CooLl—The following notice is placed upon the door of the French Catholic Chapel, George-street, Portman square, and one to the same effect in French :—" On Sun day, November 8, after vespers, a solemn Te Deem of thanksgiving for the restoration of the Catholic hierarchy in England." There is a man down east, rather a facetious chap, whose name is New. He named his first child Something, it was Something New. His next child was called Nothing, it being Nothing New. SUDDEN DEATH OF COLONEL KERSTEMAN.—We regret to announce the sudden death of the above-named gentleman, while on a visit to Mrs. Bingham, his mother-in law, at Southend. The circumstances under which the me • lancholy event took place were thus detailed at the inquest, held on Wednesday, at the Royal Hotel, before W. Codd, Esq., coroner for the county:—Richard White, servant to Mrs. Bingham, residing on the Terrace, at Southend, de posed—The deceased, Jeremiah Kersteman, was a magistrate of the county, residing at Canewdon, and was between sixty and seventy years of age. He came on a visit to Mrs. Bingham, his mother-in-law, about three weeks since, and appeared in the enjoyment of good health and spirits. The last time I saw him alive was about twenty minutes before eight o'clock last Light. He was then going up stairs. About ten minutes after Mrs. Kersteman came down stairs and said that she thought Colonel Kersteman (the deceased) was either dying or dead. I went up stairs immediately, when I fount him lying across the bed in the dressing-room, quite motionless. I unfastened his collar and took his stock off, and held him in a sitting position until the arrival of Mr. Warwick, the surgeon, who had been sent for, and he came immediately, but the deceased appeared to be quite dead. Mr. Warwick, s u rgeon, had no reasonable doubt whatever that the death of the deceased was to be attributed to an attack of apoplexy. Verdict accordingly.—Essen Standard. - - Hartwig Von Blucher, a German naturalist, has introduced a heated roller in Scotland, which being passed over the land burns the weeds and furnishes in the ashes an excellent manure. THE CITY PROCESSION ON THE 9TH OF NOVEMBER. —The streets of the City will present a very curious and in teresting scene on the approaching Lord Mayor's-day. Among the changes which are to be introduced upon that occa , on in the great civic procession will be the following appropriate substitutes for the trumpery exhibion of the men in armour at the head of the cavalcade :—Trumpeters on horseback; pages; Peace, baying in her train Europe, Asia, Africa, and America ; horse of Europe ; camel of Asia ; ele phant of Africa; two deer of America; attendants on horse back ; page ; horse, with attributes of industry •, page • horse, w ith attributes of art ; page ; hor se , w ith a t tr ib utes of com merce; trumpeters on horseback; a car, drawn by six cream coloured horses, three abreast, containing four sailors, Britannia, and Happiness; a grand military band. Toe brewers of London, speculating on a great consumption of beer during the holding of the Industrial Exhibition, have greatly increased their brewing and pur chases of malt and hops; the price of the latter article has been spared a heavy fall in consequence. A CHILD ROASTED TO DEATH.-04 Wednesday Mr. H. M. Wakley held a second inquest on Cornelius Mar tini, aged four years. Deceased, during his mother's tempo rary absence, attempted to get some lncifer matches from the mantel-piece, and in the attempt fell into the fire. Its screams alarmed the inmates, who forced open the door and found the little sufferer lying across the fire, half roasted. He was instantly conveyed to the University College Hospi tal, where he died in the greatest agony. The jury, who sever ely censured the mother for h av i ng l eft4he deceased by himself in the room, returned a verdict ':of .‘ Accidental Death." THE LATE MR. GEORGE STEFUENSON._At meeting at Derby, Mr. Mouslev, the ex-mayor of that bo rough, said that Mr. James Trubshaw, the architect of a new bridge across the Derwent, .had under his consideration at the present moment the project of erecting a monument to the celebrated George Stephenson, in one single stone, which would be several feet longer than Cleopatra's needle. — Derby Reporter.

GUILDFORD, FRIDAY: SUICIDE OF A MEDICAL ASSISTANT.-A very melancholy case of suicide occurred in this town on Wednesday evening last. The deceased, Mr. Wm. Castor, a dispensing and visiting assistant, in the em ploy of Messrs. Steadman and Sells, surgeons, of Guildford, having been found dead at his lodgings at a late hour on Wednesday night, a jury were empannelled by Mr. J. Rand, coroner for the borough, on the following morning. From the evidence adduced, there could be no doubt that the de ceased's death had been calved by poison, but whether taken intentionally did not appear. It came out that the deceased had been lately summoned to the County Court for a trifling debt, and that the circumstance had occasioned him considerable annoyance. The unfortunate man had attended the performance of an oratorio at the public hell on the evening of his death, and bade his friends " Good bye" on returning home. The jury having consulted together, found the following verdict That the deceased died from the effects of poison, but whether taken medicinally, or w i l l s an intention to commit suicide, there was no evidence to show."

The examination of the four prisoners charged with the murder and burglary at Frimley was resumed be fore the magistrates yesterday at the Guildford House of Correction. None of them appear to have under gone any change within the last week, except per haps Smith, upo❑ whom the regularity of a prison life seems to have a fattening effect. lie looked more confident about his own safety, and less anxious and thoughtful tha❑ on any former occasion. The first witness called yesterday was Francis Potter, a labourer residing at Stoke, near Guildford, who remembered on Friday evening, the 27th of September, meeting Levi Harwood on his way up Woodbridge-hill. There was some one with him who resembled Samuel Harwood, but he could not swear that it was he. The witness was at some length pressed to say positively whether it was Samuel Harwood, and at fast said he had no doubt that he was the man. None of the prisoners asked Potter any questions. Charles Weston, assistant to a grocer at Guildford, and who recognised all the four prisoners, proved that Jones, previous to the night of the murder, came to the shop and asked for a pennyworth of the best gunpowder. Witness told him that he could not sell the best in such small quantities, and he produced an inferior quality, whereupon Jones asked if it was good, and he replied jo cu l ar ly, th a t "it wou ld blow him up." Jones then bought a pennyworth and left. At the close of this evidence the magistrates deli berated for some time, and then The Chairman, addressing Samuel Harwood, said —I shall remand you again, as some evidence has been given which brings you nearer the place where the crimes with which you stand charged were com mitted, and makes your innocence more doubtful. As to you three (addressing Jones, Smith and Levi Harwood), I shall commit you for the murder and the burglary. If you have anything to say we shall be ready to hear it ; but before you make any state ment I must caution you, according to the terms of the Act of Parliament. I don't know how many of you are represented by Mr. Neale (the solicitor, who was again in attendance), but he will give to those of you who are his clients the proper.legal advice on the occasion. Mr. Neale—l represent the Harwoods and Jones, and I should advise them to reserve their defence till put upon their trial. Levi Harwood—l don't wish to say anything. Jones—l leave it to Mr. Neale. Mr. Neale then asked permission, on behalf of his two clients committed, to see their relatives and friends. If they were sent to London a serious ex pense would be incurred in going these to see them. The Chairman declined deciding upon this appli cation at once, but promised to consider it. Smith, on being asked if he had anything to state in his defence, said, " I have nothing more to say than I have said." The Chairman—That is no reason for not commit ting you to take your trial, as it is evidence against yourself. Smith (with great coolness)—Of course not, Sir. The Chairman having remanded Samuel Harwood till Wednesday next, at twelve o'clock, the prisoners were withdrawn and the proceedings terminated. ASHFORD MECHANICS' INSTITUTION. On Thursday evening last, the ".introductory lec ture" was delivered in the Assembly Rooms, before the members and friends of the Ashford Mechanics' Institution, by the Rev. John Dufton, M.A., Rector of IVarehorn. The Rev. Gentleman was greeted during his able and eloquent address with repeated marks of applause by a large and respectable audi ence. Thelecturer commenced by stating that it was with feelings of high and heartfelt satisfaction that he made his appearance thus in public upon the pre sent occasion. It had been his good fortune for some years back to act in concert with a few right-minded men, with the view of supporting an institution fraught, he trusted, with cumulative blessings to the inhabitants of Ashford. From the evening of its for mation to the present time, various observations had been made, as coming from most respectable quarters, calling in question the real utility of the establishment of a " Mechanics' Institution" in Ashford, and im plying the entertainment of doubts with regard to the needfulness, policy, and beneficial tendency of the measure. With a view of meeting all such scruples of this nature as may be entertained by any class of the community, and at the same time for allowing the public to judge how far their proceedings in this matter are the offspring of proper principles, and of sound and patriotic views, it had been deemed advise able by the committee of management, that the appro priate operations of their institution should this season commence by a public lecture, explaining the objects of its establishment. To his individual feelings, the honour of having been chosen to fulfil the wishes of the committee on this head, he need scarcely say, was altogether gra tifying. It is true that abundant proof has been afforded from the well-earned reputation of others who had delivered lectures in this institution, that the task might hare been committed to far abler hands; yet none, he felt sure, could have brought to its execu tion greater willingness to do the institution service, or more sanguine feelings with' regard to the import ance, success, and advantages of its future operations. Through evil report and good report he had long en deavoured to enforce the peculiar claims of such an institution upon public support, and to demonstrate the advantages oteducation and knowledge, of wisdom, and of truth, whether considered in relation to an indi vidual, a town, or a nation.

At the ter mination of the lecture, of the varied subjects of which it treated the above will convey some idea, a vote of thanks was proposed by 11. Whitfeld, Esq., and seconded by Mr. Keene, of the New Town, to Mr. Dufton, for his valuable address, and carried by acclamation. The lecture occupied nearly two hours in the delivery. 'We have reason to think it will shortly be published. A portrait of Mr. Whit feld was then exhibited, which had been presented by the members of the institution to that gentleman for his untiring exertions in its behalf.

Clarke), and gives satisfactory evidence of steady progress in pursuit of excellence. \Ve beg to express our cordial admiration of the ability of Mr. Clarke, and our assurance that his rising fame will be extended by a production of such unquestionable merit.—Kent _Herald. DEATH Or LORD R•NCLIFFE.--This noble Lord, who for many years has led a retired and quiet life, expired at his seat, Bunny Hall, in the county of Nottingham, at six o'clock yesterday (Friday) morning. The deceased, the Right lion. Augustus Henry Anne Parkins, was Baron Rancliffe, in the peerage of Ireland, and a baronet of Eng land. He was born on the 10th of June, 1785, succeeded his father, Thomas Boothby, first baron, Nov. 17. 1800, and married Lady Elizabeth, eldest daughter of George, sixth Earl of Granard, on the 15th of October, 1807. Ilis Lordship had for many years been separated from Lady Rancliffe (who survives him), and has died without issue— consequently the title of baron is extinct. The English baronetcy, however descends to Mr. (uow Sir Thomas) Parkins, of Ruddington, near Nottingham, and with it a very small portion of the late Noble Lord's estate. The rest of the heirable property, between 1,0001. and 2,0001. a year, is succeeded to by Sir Richard Levinge, Bart., of Knockdrim Castle, county Westmeath, son of his Lordship's eldest sister, married to Sir Richard Levinge, father of the present Baronet, on the 3d of December, 1810. But every pennyworth of heirable property, which is supposed to be very considerable, is willed to Mrs. Burt, who for abOut twenty years had been living upon intimate terms with his Lordship. Lady Ran cliffe, now, and for a very long period past, living in France, has her income of 1,0001. a year increased to 2,9001., by virtue of articles entered into at the separation. LAST SHOTS FROM THE DEER FORZSTS:AIMOst the last shot of the season has now been fired in the deer forests. About the middle of this month a number of beau tiful heads were added to former trophies. The finest ant lered head we have seen this year was shot by John Balfour, Esq., Strathconon. It is a royal head, perfect in all its parts, the top antlers, three on each side, from 6 to 9 inches long. The length of each horn is 33} inches, a inches thick, and 24 inches span. Another head with ten antlers, larger than the above in some of its dimensions (particularly in the horns, which are the stoutest we have seen for years), was shot by Lord Ranelagh, at Ardgour, on the 16th inst. The length of the horns is 311 inches, 7 inches in thickness, and 28A span. Richard Arabin, Esq., had two very good heads on his last day's stalking before leaving Dundreggan. 11. W. White, Esq., shot four red deer at. Monar ; R. S. Hol ford, Esq., one stag, with wide ten-antlered horns. At Ich nacardoch, E. Digby, Eeq., shot a large stag, weighing 21 stone clean, with a large and handsome royal head; and another, with a royal head of horns, 25 inches span, and 30 inches long, was shot at Glendce by M. Longfield, Esq., on the 10th inst. On the 21st inst. Felix Pryor,Esq., shot a royal stag, and two other stags the previous week. In the Kin lochewe forest, Captain Codrington killed a stag with royal antlers.— Inverness Courier.

DARING BURGLARY AT EPSOM BANK. CAPTURE OF TWO BURGLARS. Yesterday at half-past twelve o'clock the banking house of Messrs. Mangles, at Epsom, Surrey, was broken into, and an immense quantity of silver, cheques, notes, and gold, besides other property, was stolen therefrom. Two men, since recognised as London thieves, were stopped outside the town by a mounted patrol of the V division, who suspected them from the heavy burdens they were carrying, and drew his cutlass, with which he threatened to cut them down if they moved. The constable took them to the Epsom station-house, when Sergeant Kennedy, the acting inspector for that district, had them strictly searched, and a large quantity of money, principally silver, was taken from them, as well :is other valuable booty; they were then locked up and the property se cured. The acting inspector communicated by express with Mr. Bicknell, the superintendent, who resides at Wandsworth, and he immediately forwarded informa tion to the Police Commissioners. LATEST PARTICULARS. EPSOM, Nov. I.—The inhabitants of this little town were alarmed this morning by the discovery that a burglary, attended with circumstances of great daring, had been perpetrated during the precedirg night on the premises of the West Surrey Bank, nearly opposite the Clock-house and in the centre of the High-street of Epsom. The alarm occasioned by the announcement was in some degree allayed when it became known that the thieves, or at least some of them, had been cap tured, with all the booty they obtained in their pos session, and that Sergeant Kennedy, the active police superintendent of this district, had the scoundrels safe in his custody. The facts connected with the burglary may be briefly told as follows :—The West Surrey Bank, which belongs to Messrs. Mangles, brothers, and has its head office at Guildford, has a branch in this town. The office consists of two rooms on the ground floor of a house occupied by Mr. R. Moore, carrying on business as a fellmonger. The house is detached on one side, Mr. Moore's yard, in closed by lofty gates, running between his own residence and that of Mr. Holland, who lives next door. The apartments occupied as the bank are a front office and one small room behind, which latter is lighted by a window looking into Mr. Moore's yard. This window was fixed upon by the burglars as their point of entrance, in effecting which they adopted very similar means to the Frimley robbers. The window alluded to was an ordinary sash, strengthened inside by three iron bars. The burglars first cut away and removed the sash, which they deposited very carefully in an outhouse in Mr. Moore's yard, and then loosening the fastenings in one of the bars, they forced it inwards, and bending it up obtained sufficient room to admit a man's body. Having thus secured an entrance they struck a light and commenced ransacking the place. While the thieves were thus engaged Mr. Holland (Mr. Moore's next door neighbour), who sleeps in a room overlook ing the yard, had occasion to get out of bed. On going to the window, he at once observed a light in the little back office belonging to the bank, and as it was now about two o'clock he felt satisfied that all was not right. Mr. Holland spoke to his wife on the subject, and Mrs. Holland got up to have a peep. She soon discovered what she thought were the figures of two men, and summoning Mr. Holland to make a second observation, they both clearly saw two individuals in the little back office of the bank busily engaged in ransacking the place ; one of them holding a lighted candle in his hat, and the other armed with a chisel, or screwdriver, forcing cupboards and drawers opee. Mr. Holland's first impulse was to open the window of his bedroom and give an alarm, and with that view he threw up the sash, and called out as loud as he could, "Is that you, Mr. Moore ?" The burglars heard him call and instantly decamped, having first put out their light. Mr. Holland has tened to put on his clothes, and in a very few minutes was on his way to the police-station. Almost imme diately upon leaving his own door be encountered a man in the High-street, whom he addressed without obtaining any reply. This man walked off in ano ther direction, and Mr. Holland proceeded to give an alarm to the police. He had scarcely arrived at the station when two prisoners were brought in by the officers of the local police, and charged on suspicion of having stolen property in their possession. Mr. Hol land having communicated to Sergeant Kennedy what he had seen, that officer ordered the prisoners to be put back while he himself proceeded to ascertain the state of affairs at the bank. On arriving there he found the house had been entered as above described, and on making an examination it was discovered that the thieves, after ransacking all the cupboards and drawers in the bank, had entered Mr. Moore's private apart ments, and regaling themselves on bread and beet and wine, had subsequently stolen several articles from the room. Happily the plunder obtained was altogether very small. The iron safe in the back office of the bank resisted all the efforts of the rascals to break it open, although considerably injured by the rough usage it has received. The point of a " jemmy," used in attempting to force it, was found sticking in between the doors, and the corresponding portion of the inatrnment was subsequently discovered on one of the prisoners by Sergeant Kennedy. A cupboard in this room was broken open and a bottle of wine taken out, and from a desk which was also forced se veral blank cheques were abstracted. The front office was entered by cutting away the bolts of the door communicating between the rooms, and here 12s. 6d. in silver money was taken out of one of the tills. Happily, all the other cash, in accordance with the usual custom, had been taken to his private residence by Mr. Everingham, the manager of the bank, on the previous evening. The door leading from the front office of the bank to Mr. Moore's private apartments was forced, and in all the other rooms the robbers committed great havoc, breaking open drawers and strewing their contents about the floors. The only articles missing, however, are a great coat and some silver spoons. Mr. Kennedy having completed his search returned to the police station accompanied by Mr. Moore. On the prisoners being called forward Mr. Moore at once identified his coat on the back of one of the robbers, and on his pockets being searched the silver spoons stolen from Mr. Moore's kitchen were discoved. The broken " jemmy" and the blank cheques were found upon the other prisoner, and all doubt as to their participation in the robbery being removed they were at once put back into cells. One of the prisoners gave his name as George Roberts, and describes himself as a gun smith, but refuses to give his address. The other man calls himself Charles Dowe, and says he is a labourer. Both state that they are last from Guildford. The circumstances which led to their apprehension are these :—Police-constable 307 V was on duty at the London end of Epsom about half-past 2 o'clock this morning, when observing two auspicious looking strangers hurrying out of the town, he challenged them. Failing to obtain any satisfactory reply, he sprang upon them, and seizing both men by the collar held them until he obtained the assistance of two bro ther officers, and thus secured his prisoners. Both the fellows were brought up before the local magistrates this morning, and underwent a private examination. The Baron de Tessier and Mr. Henry Gosse were upon the bench, and Mr. William Everest, the clerk to the magistrates, was in attendance. The evidence of the police officers having been taken, Mrs. Moore (in the absence of her husband) was called to identify some of the articles stolen, and this having been done most satisfactorily, both the prisoners were remanded until Monday next, when it is expected the evidence against them will be complete. Among the articles left behind by the prisoners is a razor firmly fixed into a wooden handle, raising a strong suspicion that had they met with any resistance in the house murder would have happened. Great credit is due to Mr. Sergeant Kennedy and the force under his command for their admirable conduct in the apprehension of the prisoners. Roberta appears about thirty-two years of age, and is five feet four inches in height. He is respectably dressed, and his linen is marked "F. S.' DQwe is about eighteen years of age, and five feet four inches in height. He is very swarthy, and has a mole upon his left cheek. Both prisoners were conveyed to Kingston this evening.
