ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTrIERN ClRCUlT.—Liverpool, Aug. 25. Robert Bleasley was indicted for robbing James O'Brien, at Manchester, using, at the time of the robbery, personal violence towards him. Mr. R. Baxter conducted the prosecution; the prisoner was defended by Mr. Wilkins. It appeared that on the night in question Mr. O'Brien, the prosecutor, who is a turner, was proceeding alcng Jersey-street, Manchester, when he was met by several men running. One of them pushed against him and thrust him against the rails of Mr. Ileevor's cotton-mill. He tried to recover himself, but one of the men hit him on the hand and on the chin with some instrument which projected an inch or so from the heel of his hand, and the prosecutor finally became insensible. He had, however, recollection sufficient to feel one of the men opening his waistcoat and taking away his watch. The guard was, broken or cut, and at the moment it gave way he heard sense thing click like a pair of pincers. He must have lain there some little time until he was roused by a woman, who shook him and bade him get up. He partially recovered his senses and got home. The prisoner at the bar was in appearance similar to one of the men that robbed him. It appeared that the next morning the prisoner offered a watch in pawn to a pawnbroker at Ashton under-Lyne. He was asked some questions about it, in answer to which he ststed that he hail had it for several year , . The pawnbroker was not satisfied with the answers, and the prisoner said he ceuid bring a dozen men who knew it to be his. He went out, and came bask with a man who said it belonged to the prisoner. He then went out a second time and brought an other, who also said he knew the prisoner, and that the watch was his. While this was going on the constable, who had been secretly sent for, arrived, and the prisoner then endeavoured to make his escape. The man who was with him was a resident in Ashtou, and said the prisoner had come to him in the street and asked him to vouch for his lawful pos session of the watch, promising, as a reward, should he ( the prisoner) succeed in pawning it, to let the other have a day's fuddle out of the proceeds. The prisoner was found Guilty. To be transported for 15 years. Joseph Moran and George Murray were indicted for a bur glary in the house of George Webster, at Manchester. Mr. Monk conducted the prosecution ; the prisoners were not defended by counsel. Moran, who was but 17 years of age, pleaded " Guilty." The prosecutor, it appeared, kept a clothier's shop in Hanging-ditch, in Man c h e st er . O n t h e n i g h t o f t h e 18th of July last the policeman on duty passing the shop, observed that the dour was open, and on going in and procuring a light, found Moran secreted under the counter, and a quantity of clothes at the door ready to be taken away. He pretended to have been sleeping, and expressed great displeasure at being disturbed by the policeman. He was taken into custody and removed to the police-office. The officer then went in search of Murray, whom he had lately seen in Moran's company, and found him coming out of an entry about ten yards off the shop: He apprehended him, and on examination it proved that he had on him a new coat under a Taglioni, which did not fit him, and l:ad on it the private mark of Mr. Webster. Another coat was found concealed in a dungheap at a little distance.—Verdict, Guilty. Moran was sentenced to eighteen months' imprisonment, and Murray, as an old offender, to be transported for ten years. Peter Robertson was indicted for a burglary in the house of Thomas Harris, at Liverpool, on the Bth of May last. The prosecutor, it appeared, kept a public-house, and about three o'clock on the night in question, the police-officer on the beat, perceiving a light in the cellar kitchen, laid himself down on the flags to reconnoitre. He saw the prisoner with a candle in his hand stealthily moving about the kitchen and examining the orawers and cupboards. The officer called for further as sistance, awi, having sent a man to the rear of the house, who got over the wall into the yard, rapped at the door. The officer in the yard saw the back door open, but the person who opened it seeing the yard was guarded, retreated immediately into the house and closed and bolted the door. The officer then he rd a noise as if some one was trying to get up the chimney. Jr the mean time the other officer had got access at the front, and having procured a light, went down into the kitchen. As they entered they heard a crash of breaking gi and it proved that the intruder had dashed through a window which was unguarded, and made his escape. The prisoner was apprehended shortly after. Therts were traces of soot on his clothes and a lacerated wound on his hand. Verdict Guilt.y. To be transported for ten years. Patrick Farrell was indicted for cutting and wounding Bridget Bowes. Mr. Paget conducted the prosecution. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Atkinson. It appeared that the prisoner, who is a shoemaker, lived in Addison -street, in this town. This street is inhabited by a great many Irish, and it would appear that a feud of some standing had existed between the Farrells and the O'Flahertys. The prisoner had, it would seem, at last obtained a warrant against Mrs. O'Flaherty's daughter, for some delinquenev in respect of the prisoner's wife ; and in consequence, on the day in question, there was an angry war of words, which finally proceeded to blows, among the female portion of the Addison street community. The prisoner was coming down the street at the time, going towards his own house, and found his wife and some of her supporters engaged in a quarrel with the O'Flahertys, on the subject of the warrant. Mrs. Bowes's daughter-in-law palled off her cap and tore it in pieces. The prisoner en - leavoured to get her out of the crowd, and said, if any of them would come out and fight his wife single-handed, he would withdraw his complaint. The elder Mrs. O'Fla herty then assailed and threw mud at him. Mrs. Bowes's daughter-in-law struck hint on the back of the neck, and Mrs. Bowes herself came up and threatened that it would be worse for him if he di 1 not go home. The prisoner drew a shoe maker's knife from his breast, and struck Mrs. Bowes and one Patrick O'Flaherty with it, inflicting on Mrs. Bowes a wound in the back, near the spine, about two inches long, and half an inch deep. He then ran away down Scotland-road. Verdict—Guilty. To be imprisoned one year. IVilliant Jones and James M'Donald were indicted for stealing a purse and money from Mary Fryer on the high seas. Mr. Paget conducted the prosecution. The prisoner Jones was defended by Air. Green, the prisoner M'Donald by Mr. Wilkins. The case against the prisoners was a very short one. A steam •boat called the Ayrshire Lassie had taken a great num ber of persons to meet the Great Britain on her arrival at this port, and among others two of the detective police in plain clothes. Their attention was attracted by the conduct of the two prisou. , rs, and they accordingly kept a close watch on their conduct. When the Great Britain came near the greater number of persons on board went on deck, leaving in the saloon below a few persons who were sick, and Mrs. Fryer, who had been officiating as stewardess. One of the officers remained in the saloon pretending to be asleep. Mrs. Fryer was looking through one of the windows at the approaching vessel, when the prisoners rather pressed upon her, and the officer saw Jones try h r pockets, while M.Donald stood behind, stretching out the sk.rts of his coat, with his hands in his pockets, apparently for the purpose of conc ea l men t. M rs . Fryer, finding she could not see with sufficient distinctness through the window. went up the companion ladder on the deck, and while M'Donald stood behind in the same way, the officer, who was close upon them, saw Jones take a purse out of Mrs. Fryer's pocket, and he was in the act of transferring it to his own, when the officer tripped him up, and the purse flew from his hand. It con tained half-a-sovereign and Bs._ in silver. _ At the close of the"case for the prosecution, it was objected the irihetinent was bad, inasmuch as it did not aver that the offence took place within the jurisdiction of the Admiralty of England. The late Act directin4 offences on the high seas to be tried before Justices of Oyer and Terminer in the ordinary ivay, directs that the venue in the margin is to be the county in which the trial takes place, and every material fact which would in ordinary cases be stated to have been committed within tit- county is to bt alleged to have t a k en pl ace " on t h e high st-as." It wa s conte n d e d, howiaver, that it was still ne t-,ssary, to show the jurisdiction of the Court, to aver it was wii - hiu the ;nrisliction of the Admiralty of England. Lottiostur said the objection was one in arrest of judg ment, and w•tuld more properly be taken after verdict. Tile prisoners were €nally convicted. Ells L ,RDSHLP said he would consult with Mr. Justice 7resivi el, and would hear the argument to-morrow morning. CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. JtIViCC CREItSWELL and a Special Jury.) TOULMIN AND ANOTHER V. DEDLEY. This wa.t an action for the amount of a cargo of guano sold }the p:aintiff, to the defendant. Air. Watson and Mr. Cowling were for the plaintiffs ; and Air. Martin, Mr. Sergeant Murphy, and Mr. Addison for the defendant. The defendant had, it appeared, in January last, contracted for the purchase from the plaintiffs, merchants in London, of four hundred tons of lehaboe guano, by the ship Sarah, at 7/. 105. per ton, the guano to be of average quality, and in good merchantable condition. The Sarah arrived first at Falmouth, and the defendant was asked by the plaintiffs for orders, and inquiries were made whether he would wish to inspect the cargo. Ile declined doing so, however, and the ship was ordered round to the Clyde. The guano was there sampled by the Messrs. Clint, of Liverpool, and proving, as was alleged, not to be of fair average quality, the defendant refused to complete his bargain. WPS admitted, on the face of the evidence for the plaintiff, that thcre*as considerable variety in the quality of the guano composin: , this cargo, some of it being admitted to be of an in terior kind. It was contended, however, that it was a fair aver?,. nil the whole. For the defendant it was said, that of 'he iota higs of which the cargo consisted, 4,700 were good, 1,1 . -'S irior, and *236 very inferior, one of the witnesses sayinz s.ene of the latter was the worst he had ever seen. . 1 1r. MARTIN contended that though no doubt a great part of the cirgo wee of good quality, a large portion of it was wade up of the refuse which had been taken from the surface by the first adventurers, and was composed of rubbish, fea thers, i.hells, and bones. It was monstrous to suppose that a met, who had contracted for a fair average cargo was to pay 71. 10s. per ton for such an article as that. After a good deal of evidence had been adduced to show uality of the guano, WATSON replied, contending that the cargo was repu diate,' by the defendant, not because it was of less than the average quality, but bi•cause it had arrived in a falling time, was likely to turn out a less profitable speculation than the ' def,ndent issd ,anticipated. A vorlict was filially returned for the plaintiffs—Damages, 3,086/. ss. SEDUCTION.-COWELL V. MAYNON. This wa3 an action in which the plaintiff sought, to recover conireasation from the defendant for alleged loss of the ser vices of his daughter, in consequence of her seduction by the defendant. Mr. ‘Vhigharn appeared for the plaintiff, Mr. Atherton for the defence. It appeared from the statement of the young woman, .that in the y e a r 1343 s h e was i n th e serv i ce of the defendant, who isa eltton rnantificturer at Blackburn. She was a hand-loom weaver, and +vas in the habit of attending at his warehouse to obtain warp and weft, and receive her wages. Shortly before Christmas, 1343, he detained her in the warehouse until all the ri-st were :s,me, saying it was not her turn, and finally forcing her into Cie cellar, obtained possession of her person. He had paid her attention for some time before, and had said he would marry her. The intimacy thus commenced continued until the latter . pyt of th e year 1344, an d i n S eptember she gave birth to a elm]. It appeared that subsequent to the birth she had cone before the magi-tratcs to obtain an order of affiliation. The ease was adjourned for the purpose of obtaining corrobora tive evidence, but the application was finally refused. On cross-extmination she stated that the defendant had made love to her, and told her she was very beautiful, through the hole in the partition in the counting-house, enclosing the pt y- tliee, where they were p a id t h e i r wages. He had pro mised to marry her in the same way. She said that he had fired iwr into the cellar and locked her in there, while he went and put the warp and weft she had got back in the office. She s:aw him do this. She looked through the lock of the door. 'ne afterwards said she looked through a hole in the bottom of th e She then stated, on being asked what she meant by ; sa) in]; she to eked through the lock, that there was a lock at the bottom of the door. It was a padlock. That was the lock the defendant fastened when he locked her in. He took it out of his pocket. Did nut look through the padlock. Looked through the hole in the door. She also said that the defendant lacked her ;hen he put her into the cellar. He kicked her aftiir he hail effected his purpose. He kicked the hinder part of her per sin. [lad dons so before when he was courting her. Had done so before he called her beautiful as well as after. The intercourse latterly usually took place in the office. Generally kicked her on these occasions. Mr. ATHERTON addressed the jury for the defence,- own- THE S LON DON, menting strongly on the case, and contending the statement which they had heard was utterly incredible. Verdict for the defendant. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, the Assistant-Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates. ) Yesterday the August general sessions for the county of Middlesex were opened :at the Sessions-house, Clerkenwell green. ;The attendance of magistrates was more numerous than usual. The calendar presents a list of 70 prisoners, of whom 57 are charged with felony. The Learned JUDGE briefly addressed the grand jury. The grand jury having then retired, Mr. PAYNE said he appeared on behalf of the parochial au thorities of St. Andrew's, Holborn, and had to apply for the judgment of the Court upon James Lawson and his wife Jane, who had been convicted in the month of February of having been the keepers of a house of ill-fame. The Learned JUDGE asked how it was that so long a period had elapsed between the present application and the conviction ? .1n inquiry was hereupon made, ashen it was found that the conviction had been in the month of February, in 1813. I defendants had then promised to abate the nuisance, and had entered into recognisances to appear to receive judg oient when called upon. It appeared, too, that for a short period the defendants had not merely shut sin the house, but had left the place altogether. They, however, returned alter some length of absence, and not only resumed their former occupation, but became so prosperous that in the course of time they became the owners, or occupiers at all events, of eight houses, in which they continued to carry on their usual business. The locality in which these houses were situate was George-court, Gray's Inn-lane. Mr. PAYNE now said he was instructed to urge that the Court would mark its sense of the bad conduct of the defend ants by a severe visitation in the shape of punishment. The ease was attended with very aggravating circumstances. The Learned JUDGE was greatly surprised at this applica tion being made after so long a time had passed from the day of the conviction—namely, between two and three years. It was absolutely necessary that there should be some bar as to the time at which persons convicted of an offence were to be held amenable to their recognisances. In this particular case, too, it furthermore appeared—and indeed it was admitted by the Learned Counsel for the prosecution—that the nuisance of which the defendants had been convicted had been abated. Under all the circumstances of the case, he could not but re gard this application as one of an extraordinary character. Mr. PAYNE was anxious to explain the circumstances con nected with this matter. The present application had been made in consequence of 'a communication having been made to the parochial authorities by Mr. Greenwood, the magistrate, who had suggested the propriety of the parish instituting pro ceedings against these houses because of the many and dis graceful robberies which were constantly being committed in them. An investigation was set on foot after the receipt of these communications by the parish, when it was found that the occupiers of the houses complained of were the very per sons who were already under recognisances. That being the case the parish had, therefore, with a view of saving expense, made the present application, rather than incur the costs of a fresh indictment. The Learned JUDGE said that the parish authorities had clearly been guilty of a neglect of duty if they had been aware that these parties had again opened the houses, for they ought at once to have indicted them. At all events, they ought long before to have brought the matter under the notice of the Court. It was manifest that the defendants, after having abated the nuisance, had returned and renewed it with ap parent impunity, and that it was not until the magistrate at the police court had called attention to the subject. that any sub sequent steps hail been taken. if this practice were permitted, it was clear that the prosecution of these houses would heco.ne a mere farce, whilst the most unncessary and useless expenses would have been incurred. He found that the parish had not been bound over to prosecute, but if they had, he should have considered it to have been his duty to have estreated the recog ntzances. He should, however, refuse the present application, and leave it to the parish authorities, should they think proper, to prefer another indictment. This was acc , rdingly done directly. THE PRISON AT PARKHURST. Carter, aged 111 (who pleaded " Guilty"), and David Higgins, aged 14, were indicted for having stolen a pair of boots, valued at 55., and other articles, the property of George Buller. The prisoners had accosted the youthful prosecutor upon his lauding at Hungerford-market from one of the steam-boats on Sunday evening, the 10th instant, and soon induced him to go with them to the dark arches of Hungerford-market. Here they met several other boys, friends of the prisoners, with whom a game at " touch" was commenced. During the proceed ings the prisoners contrived to rob the lad, and on the following Saturday they were secured. The case against Higgins being clear, he was found Guilty. The Learned JUDGE said, that'this was just a proper case for the Parkhurst Prison, but he could not send them there be cause he bad received, a communication from the Secretary of State for the Home Department, wherein he was re quested not to send any juvenile offenders to Parkhurst ea eept where their cases were of an aggravated character. The consequence of this communication, therefore, had been to place the Court in a position of great embarrassment, from the fact that nearly all the cases which came before it were of a trifling nature. There was another point, too, wherein a difficulty had also arisen, and that was that that Court had upon all occasions formed its opinion as to -whether prisoners ought to be sent to Parkhurst from the nature of their general character and habits. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAIVSION-HOUSE. A well-dressed female, named Margaret Scott, was charged with having robbed a country gentleman of a purse containing seven sovereigns and six half-sove reigns. The case proved to be one of those robberies which nightly take place with the assistance of men, who are always at hand to receive the money stolen, sometimes by violence, sometimes by ingenuity, from respectable persons. The complainant was returning to his inn from New gate-street, at about eleven o'clock the night before, when the prisoner began to caper and dance before him. his amazement at such an exhibition was so great that he never observed the lady touching his person until his watch was half out of his pockcq. A policeman (Kinsey, 656) however had silently observed her pranks, and suspecting that there was method in them watched her, and soon was convinced that she was manoeuvring the gentleman out of his property, The policeman had seen a shabby genteel fellow, with whom she had been im mediately before whispering, suddenly quit her com pany, and then saw her " acting a scene," as above described. At length she turned up a court, and the policeman ran forward and took hold of her, and asked the gentleman whether he had been robbed. "No," replied the latter, but upon putting his hand into his pocket he at once missed his purse, and then told the policeman for God's sake to hold the woman fast. The prisoner then dropped the purse which contained the sovereigns and half-sovereigns at the policeman's feet, and was conveyed to the station-house. The prosecutor informed Sir John Pirie that he was perfectly sober at the time of the occurrence, and that he was completely deceived by the antic tricks of the woman, so different from the usual system adopted by persons of her character. Sir J. PIRIE applauded the conduct of the policeman, and said that he must send the prisoner for trial. He knew that robberies were committed in great numbers every MOIL by the assistance of the male companions of the most abandoned women of the town. The prosecutor wished to avoid the inconvenience to which attendance at the Central Criminal Court would subject him, but Sir J. l'intE said that in such a case it would he most criminal to forego a prosecution, and committed the prisoner fur trial. WORSHIP-STREET. A reipectably-dressed young man named Henry Catmur, alias Sheen, was placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham for final examination, charged with having obtained large quan tities of stationary and books from various tradesmen by means of forged orders and fraudulent representations. The proceedings attracted an unusual degree of interest, the Court being crowded by persons anxious to prefer charges against the prisoner, and the following in addition to those before entered upon were now gone into : Sergeant Teakle stated, that since the last examination he had been incessantly engaged in endeavours to trace the pro perty of which the prisoner had obtained possession, and that, in addition to the immense stock of paper, amounting to up wards of a cartload, which he had already recovered, he had also secured about eight hundredweight of mill-boards, toge ther with more than a hundred prayer-books and numerous volumes of miscellaneous works, which the prisoner had de frauded two tradesmen then in attendance of, and afterwards sold at a stay warehouse in Lamb-street, Bethnal-green. Mr. Hilton, the bookseller of Stationers' Hall-court, Lud : gate-hill, identified the prayer-books produced by the sergeant as his property, and which the prisoner had obtained from him in the month of February last, under the pretence of binding them, but almost immediately afterwards disposed of at the pl ice above mentioned. Mr. Haddon, a stationer, in Castle-street, Finsbury, came forward to identify the volumes of miscellaneous works re- , ferred to as his property, which the prisoner had been en trusted with for binding, together with 104 volumes of "Watts's Hymns," and none of which had since been returned. %Ir. Justin, who attended for the prosecution, then stated that there were numerous other cases of fraud similar to those before taken against the prisoner, but having, upon investiga ting them, found that three of them resolved themselves into the far more serious charge of forgery and one into that of felony, he considered it would be most advisable to select the latter cases as objects for prosecution, and forego the minor offences. Mr. Alfred Knight, of the firm of Knight and Co., whole sale stationers in Budge-row, Cannon-street, was then called, and stated that on the 23d of May last the prisoner came to their warehouse and presented a written order, signed " Henry Catmur, bookbinder, Bethnal-green-road," for eight reams of paper, to be paid for on delivery. The prisoner, who was a stranger to the witness, in answer to his inquiries, stated that lie was in the service of Mr. Catmur, whose respectability could be ascertained on referring to Messrs. Tegg, the pub lishers, of Cheapside ; and the application to that house having been perfectly satisfactory, the order was complied with, and the goods taken away by the prisoner and a lad who accom panied him. On two subsequent occasions the prisoner ob tained respectively nine and ten more reams of paper on similar orders, but on application being made for payment of the mount of them, they were at once refused, and declared to be forgeries. Witness had only executed these orders on the faith of the prisoner's representation that he was in the service of the person referred to by Mr. Tegg. Mr. Henry Catmur, a bookbinder in the Bethnal-green road, stated that he was the father of the prisoner, and that the orders produced were not only not in his handwriting, but that he had neither authorised their being written, nor received or knew anything of the goods to which they referred. Sergeant Teakle intimated to the magistrate that about a twelvemonth since the prisoner had been prosecuted by his own father for similar frauds to the present, and, having been con vice ed, was sentenced to two months' imprisonment. Another charge, preferred by Messrs. Grimwade and Co., of Bread -street, Cheaostde, the facts of which we havo already noticed, and in which the prisoner had obtained the goods smiler circumstances which, in law, amounted to constructive felony, was then completed, and ordered to be included in the depositions ; and the prisoner, who declined offering any de fence to either of the charges, was fully committed far trial upon all of them. B E 7'H. Yesterday Crispin George Feuillade, a singular-looking young man, was charged before Mr. Henry with annoying his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, and his Grace's do mestics at Lambeth Palace, by forwarding by post and also calling with various letters and parcels for his Grace, and en deavouring to effect an entrance into Lambeth Palace. The prisoner, who is small in stature, wore a thick pilot coat, which was buttoned close to the chin. His features are small and sharp, with dark piercing eyes, and altogether he presented a singular appearance. George Lipacombe, porter to his Grace the Archbishop of "t ~.. WEDNESDA Y EVENING, AUGUST 27 184. Canterbury, deposed that about ten o'clock on that forenoon the prisoner presented himself at the principal entrance to Lam beth Palace and demanded an interview with his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury. Having been in the habit of frequently calling at the palace with letters and -rlckages for his Grace the Archbishop, and also having refused to give any account or explanation of his object in addressing his Grace, witness stopped him, and in order to put a stop to his fur ther annoyances, and fearing also that some time or other he might avail himself of an opportunity of getting access to the palace, he (witness) sent for a policeman and gave him into custody. In reply to the question of Mr. Henry the witness said the prisoner had been in the habit, for upwards of a month, of endeavouring to get an interview with his Grace the Archbishop, and also endeavouring to for ward letters and parcels to his Grace ; but, as he had always refused to disclose his object or the purport of the letters, he (witness) had received instructions from the steward not to forward them to his Grace. Having particularly noticed his writing, witness stopped two of the prisoner's notes, addressed to his right rev. master, but he had no doubt, from what he had himself acknowledged, he had managed to forward some communications to the Archbishop through the post. The prisoner appeared to him (witness) not to be in his right mind, and upon one or two occasions, about a fortnight ago, he threatened that if he did not get to speak to his Grace he would stop the carriage and address his Lordship. Mr. HENRY — Are you aware o hether he has done so? Witness—l am pretty certain he has not, Sir, for his Grace and the family have been out of town, so that he had no oppor tunity ; but his Grace is at present in town. The witness, in continuation, said that a box, which was at present in the pos session o' the constable, had been forwarded by the prisoner to Lambeth Palace, and, according to the prisoner's own state ment, a second box had been forwarded to the palace also by him, and, in conclusion, the witness handed to the bench the two letters to which he had made reference, and which the prisoner himself had acknowledged to be in his handwriting. The police-constable, 135 L, who had taken the prisoner into custody, here produced a large square parcel covered with great care, sealed up and directed to" His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, Lambeth Palace ;" which Mr. Henry directed to be opened. This was done, and upon the paper being removed a ladies' work-box of considerable size and beauty was exhibited. In fact it was a splendid specimen of art, and must have occu pied the unfortunate prisoner several months in its completion. Its top, ends, and sides were composed of the most choice and beautiful rose, maple, and coloured woods of different hues, and the figures which it exhibited by the inlaying of small por tions of the variegated wood were of the most tasteful and beautiful description. Henry Hutchin, an assistant to Mr. Mathews, a pawnbroker in Princes-street, Princes-road, Lambeth, and who happened to he in the court on other business, here stated he had known the prisoner for two years or upwards, and though somewhat eccentric, believed him to be a most ingenious person. He had pledged a table at his (witness's) master's shop for six guineas, which was inlaid with woods in the most beautiful manner, and he believed it to be his invariable practice to pledge all the work he had done, as it was not his wish that it should get into the market an d b ec ome commun. Ine box produced had been executed with the greatest taste and care, and must have occupied the prisoner at least three months in its com pletion. The witness added that the prisoner was always dressed, winter and summer, and hot or cold, just as he then appeared, in a thick pilot coat buttoned up close to the chin. English, one of the summoning officers of the court, said the prisoner had on one or two occasions made application to Mr. Norton at this court for his assistance, and complained of the annoyance which he had experienced from being followed by a parcel of idle boys, and he ( English) had been sent to make inquiries, and warned the parties guilty of the annoyance of the consequences of their persisting in it. On going to make the necessary inquiries the neighbours complained of his being a nuisance in the neighbourhood, as he alone occupied a house which hail all the appearance, from its closed up and dilapi dated appearance, being completely deserted, and that he kept loaded pistols there. Mr. HENRY asked the prisoner what he had to say to the charge which he had heard made against him? He (Mr. Henry) should in the first instance request the clerk to read the very extraordinary letters addressed by him to his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, and should then request some ex planation of his conduct. Mr. Gunn, the clerk, then read the following letters, which we give ♦erbatim, and which were written in a careless and in different hand, and addressed to " His Grace the Lord Bishop of Canterbury" : . " My Lord, —You will question me what object i have in view—i shall be able to tell much better what i am fit for when my mind is more settled. Should i gain your favour you will be able to make something of me—i think i shall be fit for a member of Parliament or els a magistrate. My Lord, i want to he away from here, can you lodge me anywhere, i wish some one would come up to my house the next time i come to the palace i want to come for good, there will be time for me to re move to-day after you have received this note. " i am, my Lord, your obedient servant, " August 19th, 184-5." " C. G. FEUILLADE. " My Lord,—My object in sending to you is to gain a wife. Will the favour be too great for me to wish to be membered with your rank of society. if you can decide immediately i shall he glad. _ _ " i am, my lord, your obedient_ servant, "August 25, 1845." " C. G. FEUILLADE. Mr. Hzisltr—Well, you have heard these extraordinary letters read ; what have you got to say to writing such letters, and attempting to send them to the Archbishop of Canterbury? The prisoner, in a shrill and penetrating voice—Y ou s h ou ld see , Sir, the whole of the letters to be able to judge of my motive, as it is sufficiently apparent in them. Mr. HENRY, to the servant of his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury—Are there any more letters belonging to the pri soner than those produced ? Lipscombe—Those were all I had, your Worship. Some might have reached his Grace the Archbishop through the post, but I don't know what has be come of them. The prisoner has told me to-day that he had forwarded to the palace a larger box, and one of a similar de scription to that produced, by the Parcels' Delivery Company, but I have seen nothing whatever of it. Prisoner—Yes, that's right enough. Lipscombe—Well, if it has been received at the palace I have no doubt you shall have it back. Mr. HENRY remarked he should call upon the prisoner to find good bail, but his impression was that he was insane, and he should therefore send him with an officer and the letters produced, before the medical gentleman of the parish of Lam beth, to ascertain the real state of his mind, and if insane he should be taken care of; if not he should then hold him to bail.

THE EXIYAOSION AT JARROW COLLIERY. (FRol A CORRESPONDENT.) INQU:ST ON THE BODIES. NEWCASTLE, Aro. 25.—1 have just returned from the inquest held on tb bodies of the sufferers by the fatal explosion at Jarrw Colliery, and the inquiry, which began this mornir; at ten o'clock, and continued with out intermission, ame to kalose about half•past five this evening, when tin jury returned a verdict of—•' Acci dental Death." The inquest w,s begun by the examination of Mr. Jobling, viewer of the colliery, who was observed fre quently- to shed tors as he detailed the proceedings that he and others adoited as soon as made acquainted with the occurrence, std informed the jury that, in his opinion, the fire hal originated in the low main seam, at a spot denominate) the West Flat Mothergate Board, and gave as the oily reason for th4t opinion that he had Oil the Saturday aid Sunday heard the gas issuing from the coal or stone, he could not tell which, seeing that he could not get ;o the spot on account of some very heavy falls of stem. Ile gave testimony also as to the general saf:ty and etcellent ventilation of the pit previous to the explosion, yhich was corroborated by the sub sevent witnesses., There was one ci•cumstance connected with the Coro ner's conduct in ttis melancholy affair that I feel desi rous of drawing your attention to, namely—on Saturday last, several of the friends of the sufferers requested Mr, Thos. Horn, of Newcastle, Mr. James Mother, of South Shields, and myself to attend the inquest, and solicit the Coroner to allow us to ask a few questions of the witnesses, which might appear to us requisite to elicit every infor mation count cted with the explosion, also to request the Coroner to adjourn the inquest for a day or two, in order to ascertair whether Sir J. Graham would consent to send dowa the Commissioners lately appointed to examine into the ventilation of mines, he having been written to for that purpose. However, the Coroner re fused to adjourn the inquest, although one mat rial witness was absent--the man who had been saved after being thirty-six hours in the pit, but who is in so weak a state at present as not to be able to be examined. This conduct on the part of the Coroner, to say the l , ast of it, did appear to us as very uneourteous to the relatives of the sufferers. 1845. The Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert arrived at Rosenau, from Wurtzburgh, on the evening of the 19th ; and her Majesty has not experienced any fatigue from the journey. Her Majesty, after taking leave of the King of Prussia, at Stolzenfels, on Saturday the 16th, ascended the Rhine, as far as May eau., in the Fairy yacht: on Sunday her Majesty rested at Mayence, and attended Divine service at the English chapel. On Monday the 18th, the Queen slept at IVurtzburgh, and was received, on her arrival at the Palace, by Prince Luitpold of Bavaria, in the absence of the King, who was detained at Munich. During the passage of the Queen through the Bavarian territory, her Majesty was treated with great honour and respect. On the arrival of the Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert in the Duchy of Cobourg, they were met by the reigning Duke, and were greeted with universal demonstrations of joy and attachment.

The Right Honourabe Sir James Graham has received a dispatch from the Earl of Aberdeen LT., dated Roaenau, mar cobourgh, 20th August, .SOUTHWARK. Yesterday Ann Barrett, a repulsive looking wcman, was brought before Mr. Traill for re-examination, charged with robbing a Mr. William Boughton, of Maidstone, of two sove reigns, under the following circumstances The complainant stated that he was a stranger in town, and that soon after his arrival, on Thursday last, he met the pri soner in Farringdon-street, and that under the supposition that she was a servant who had just left her situation, he consented to take a walk with her. She escorted him over one of the bridges, and as they were rambling along she made a full stop at a linendraper's window, which exhibited a rich display of goods. Having entered the shop, she took a particular fancy to a shawl, and by this time she had so far ingratiated herself into the good graces of complainant, that he consented to be come a purchaser for her of the article she set her heart upon. Subsequently to the purchase they proceeded to a coffee-house, and having partaken of refreshment they retired to bed, having passed as man and wife, complainant depositing his trousers, containing five sovereigns, under the pillow, and also taking the precaution of securing the room door by locking it, In the morning, however, when he awoke, he found his trousers had been removed, and on examination discovered that two sovereigns had been taken. Surprised at the disco very, he accused the prisoner of having been at his pockets, a charge which she denied, remarking to him that it was proba ble some person had entered the room when they were asleep, and possessed themselves of the money. He, however, said that such a circumstance could not have taken place, as the door was found locked precisely as he had left it on their retir ing to bed. This fact made no impression on the prisoner, who still avowed her innocence, and they left the house to gether, and on his meeting the first policeman he gave her into custody. The policeman examined the prisoner's pockets, and the room in which the parties had slept had also undergone a search, but the money was not to be found, The complainant added that he was satisfied the prisoner had robbed him, al though the money was not found, and he said she had sufficient opportunity of throwing away the two sovereigns as they were going along after leaving the house. Mr. Taarr.L, as the complainant was as confident of the fact of his having been robbed by the prisoner, asked him whether he wished to take the case before a jury ? The complainant answered in the affirmative, and the pri soner was accordingly committed. ADVERTISFMENT.

In the latter part of the time eleven wounds were open at once. The faculty declared the case was past cure.

A MAYOR COUNTERFEITING A ALAN-SERVANT. — The Mayor of Windsor, Thomas Clarke, Esq., was placed in a very unpleasant situation, a few days since, in his journey from that town to Southampton, accompanied by his daughter, a young lady about twenty years of age. On his arrival at the Farnborough station from Windsor, he proceeded thence to Southampton by one of the fast trains, by which only first class passengers are conveyed, a limited number of servants only being permitted to travel by these trains, for whom ac commodation is afforded at second-class fares. Mr. Clarke placed his daughter alone in a first-class carriage, and took a ticket for himself as a servant, thereby saving 35., and seated himself in a carriage exclusively devoted to that class. Shortly after the train had left the Farnborough station, it was dis covered that instead of Mr. Clarke being the lady's servant, he was no less a personage than the Mayor of Windsor. This extraordinary fact was instantly, by means of the electric tele graph, communicated to the railway authorities at the Southampton terminus, where, Olson the Mayor's arrival, he was ushered into a private room and charged with basing tra velled as a servant to the young lady who was with him, when in reality be was her own father. He was made to pay the difference in the fair which he had saved by the ruse he had practised, and very politely told that he had rendered him self liable to be fined 40s. The money was paid and the Mayor and his daughter.pursued their ourney to the Isle of Wight. TN E CROPS. — Harvesting has been commenced in this vicinity, and haymaking has progressed. On Sunday we saw some hay being turned, which was ready for making a month or five weeks ago, had the weather permitted the opera tion. It is, of course, greatly .discoloured, and deprived of sweetness. Sunday, being a drying day, gave a spur to the reaper, and a great quantity of corn fell on Monday; but on Tuesday, thelfields were deluged with heavy rains —succeeded yesterday by sunshine and fine drying winds, which, if conti nued a few days, would prove of inestimable value. The disease in the potato crop is increasing. —Dever Chivnicle. BANKRUPTS.

THE CROPS.—The harvest weather continued very favourable until Monday night, when there was a very violent storm in Winchester and throughout this dis trict. The rain continued incessantly pouring in torrents during the whole of Tuesday, and at intervals on Wed nesday. On Thursday the weather cleared up, and har vesting was generally resumed. The appearance of the crops from hero to Southampton is very satisfactory. At Bishopstoke, and many other places, the barley is as forward as the wheat, and all along the line the crops are being reaped, instead of being mowed, the former being much more advantageous to the gathering of the crops. The blight has had no effect, but wherever the crop has failed, or appears light, it is owing to the wheat having been backward sown, or where it has been attacked by the wire-worm. Near Alton is the only place where the crops are backward, anti up to Thursday there were only about two acres cut in that township. At Alresford and its vicinity the wheat is not so good as last year, although the crops of barley are better. Some few samples of wheat were exhibited at the corn market here on Saturday, although there was but a small quantity offered for sale.—Hampshire Advertiser. The weather in this district, we are sorry to say, still con tinues unpropitious for the season. Two dry days are all that we can record out of the past week. During Wednesday, for the whole day, the rain poured down incessantly, and through the course of last night, we have had some of the most severe showers of the season. To-day the rivers are flooded to a considerable extent, showing that the storm bas extended over a great breadth of country. The commencement of even par tial harvest with the wheat and oat crops, is thus deferred for another week at the earliest. With all this, there is a con siderable change in the appearance of the fields since our last notice. The different kinds of wheat are now distinguishable from the colour, and, on some fields, the oats have progressed considerably ; - and make it obvious to the onlooker, that some of them will be soon ready for the sickle.— Glitsßow Watzirday Post. The weather with which we are at present favoured is highly seasonable and most beneficial for the harvest opera tions. Occasional and heavy showers fell on Monday and Tuesday, and threatened to break the fine weather which had previously appeared to set in ; we are glad, how ever, that the fears of the farmers in this district have nc,t, assn reaaeti by the re►nit. The wheat had not been materially injured by the rains that had fallen, but a longer continuance of them would have been produc tive of immense mischief. Indeed the only injury which the wheat appears to have suffered, and that only in some districts, has been from, unfavourable blossoming time, when, Wednesday last was a sore day for the country. On Tuosday evening the weather, which had promised to become more settled, underwent a change. The wind took up its quarters in the north-east, and the rain commenced falling heavily, and continued throughout the night without intermission. On Wednesday, the wind hai increased and the rain in no degree dimi nished, causing great anxiety for property, both on land and sea. The rivers and streams rose to a considera ble height.. ~ — Dee and -Don were both Lity . oll De• veron and various other waters had lA e it . 414)041 , higher, and carried away, from the fields in their respective neighbourhoods, great quantities of hay that had, on account of the changeable weather, not been " stacked." The grain on their banks in several districts was severely injured. The damage done to the crops has not, however, been confined to that effected by doodad streams--much more has been done by the rain and wind in 'S laying" heavy crop. Many a fine field has had a great portion of its rich contents so damaged, that there is little chance of its ripening ; and upon the whole, from what we hear, we believe not less than ten per cent of the growing crop will have been destroyed. So much for the land. We will now note down a few of the (in some instances still more melancholy) ill doings of the storm by sea. No vessel left the harbour throughout Wednesday. Those engaged in the herring fishing have suffered most by the storm. A number of Peterhead boats—about forty-seven —passed through this bay on Wednesday mornin g , drifting so u th war d. Seven of them made for this harbour, and succeeded in gaining it, with the exception of one, which was thrown upon the point of the North Pier, and went to pieces. No lives were lost, but all the nets, sails, and tackle, belonging to the boat, and a take of fourteen trans of herrings, went to the bottom. The other boats scudded southwards ; and the Bonnie Dundee, which arrived here on Wednesday evening, brought word that, during the passage from Granton, large fleets of fishing vessels were seen, every now and then, running south, making, as was supposed, for the Frith of Forth. Only one or two Aberdeen boats were out on that day, or during the ten days previous. Indeed, so little has been doing at this port, that the greater portion of the boats that commenced the season here have migrated to other quarters. Considerable anxiety was felt for those that were out. They returned, however, safe, having found shelter during the storm—one of them arrived yester day with the largest take of herrings that has been made during the season—averaging, to as nearly as the fisher men could calculate, from 45 to 50 emus. The storm, which raged with great violence on this coast, left in this neighbourhood some considerable traces, short-lived perhaps, of its reign, having totally destroyed the stake nets along the beach.—Aberdeen Herald. being partially knee- bound, the sap was not so copiously come municated to the kernel. Around Devenport the harvest is rapidly progressing, and numerous fields have already been cleared of an excellent and abundant crop. Farther north, however, the wheat has not been cut, though ready for the reap-hook. The crop of barley and oats is also very good. Potatoes generally, hut especially the early sort, have failed ; the later kinds, however, are very well in appearance.—Devon. port Telegraph. The weather for the last few days, with a few showery in tervals, has been most propitious for all kinds of farming pur poses, and harvest business is in brisk operation in all directions. In early harvesting operations Louth seems to be pretty far for ward this season, of which we witnessed a eleasing instance a few days ago, .T„ Wolsey, Esq., of Castlebellingham, having had 100 reapers in one field, cutting down oats, which was a splendid sight. Mr. Wolsey is one of the most spirited and enterprising agriculturists in the kingdom, andis the manu facturer of that cheering and wholesome beverage—the far famed Castlebellinghana ale. The large tract of lind which has this year been reclaimed off the sea at Lurgan Green, is now under a heavy crop of wheat, oats, and barley ready for the sickle. It is the property of Thomas F Ttescue, Esq., of Raven-dale, who deserves much credit for his enterprise and benevolence in providing employment for the corking classes in the vicinity of his estates. On the whole, Irish farmers never had more cheering prospects than the pre sent season affords.—Armagii Sporting Chronicle. At the close of the past week a considerable breadth of wheat was carted from the light lands, and in pretty good con dition. That grown upon the heavy lands ripens very irregu larly, and when cut requires a more genial sun to harden the kerisel and to change the colour of the straw, which is in places very green. The rain, up to the present time, has not done so much damage as was at one time apprehended ; we hear of but little having speared, and the red-gum complaint appears to be almost forgotten. Of swarth corn little has at present been carted; barley is a heavy crop, and in some places unavoidably foul, it will therefore require longer fielding, and, owing to the heavy dews which may now be expected, that crop, which is always a hazardous one, may be said to be in considerable danger, owing to the lateness of the season. The oats are thinner, and will be more quickly carried if the weather permits. The late showers have been very partial.—Essex Herald. THE WEATHER.—The unfavourable state of the weather excites the utmost dread and anxiety among all classes of persons. The continuous fall of rain which we have experi enced this last week cannot fail to have inflicted serious injury on the standing crops, while it has produced almost an entire cessation from out-door labour. Sunday morning was beauti ful, and great hopes were entertained that a permanent change had taken place, but by mid-day the sky was overcast, the rain again set in, and throughout the evening it fell in tor rents. Monday was moderate, thoagh not dry. Tuesday morning it again rained, and on that day and the following night and day it literally poured down without intermission, while a strong wind blew from the north-west. The river became swollen and discoloured, giving evidence that the rain was general throughout the district. The sea was lashed into a storm, and everything around bore resemblance to the dreariest aspect of winter. Had the weather been fair, har vest would have been partially commenced in the district. A field of barley was intended to be cut at Mindrum on Monday, while at Longridge and in that quarter some fields of the same grain should have been subjected to the sickle by this time. The white crops are very much beaten down and twisted, while a second growth is making its appearance. The tributaries to the Tweed are all very much swollen. The Till so much ex ceeded its boundary on Wednesday as to render the road be tween Wooler and this unpassable.— Berwick Advertiser. BIDEFORD.—New oats were sold here on the 19th. The samples were exceedingly fine, and several bushels were sold at an average of 2s. 3d. imperial bushel. The 'weather since our last has been favourable to the harvest, although we have had heavy rains, especially on Tuesday, which was a thoroughly wet day. There was a good deal of wheat carried, and in excellent order, on Saturday and Monday ; and, with a continuance of fine weather, we shall have the harvest pretty general in another week. From the reports we read in the papers we incline to think that the north of Devon is earlier with its harvest this year than usual, in comparison with the other parts of the kingdom ; and from all that we can yet learn, there is not so much reason here of complaint of the crops as appears to prevail elsewhere. There can be no ques tion that the wheat has received damage; but the general opinion seems still to be, that with favourable weather wheat at ill be an average crop, and the other grains and roots will un questionably be very abundant.— North Lecun Journal of August 21.

Bucklersbury, Aug. 25, 1845. MEETING OF SIR WILLIAM MOLESWORTH'S FRIENDS. Another meeting of ti electors of Rotherhithe and Bermondsey, favourable to Sir William Molesworth, was held last evening, at the Jamaica Tavern, Rother hithe, to hear a statement from that gentleman, illustra tive of his political principles, and t 9 take measures to secure his return for the borough. Captain Barnard was called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN opened the proceedings by stating the objects for which the meeting had been called. It was to hear a statement of Sir William Melesvvorth's prin ciples, and to pass resolutions founded thereon. Sir W. MOLES WORTH commenced his address by say ing that he appeared before them to solicit the_hor.our of being their representative in Parliament .—( Cheers.) There were two candidates in the field. Mr. Pilcher, who was a Conservative, and Mr. Miall, who differed very little from himself, and for whom personally he had the greatest respect.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Miall had stated that he would rather that a Tory was returned than a Whig-Radical. He (Sir W. Molesworth) did not Participate in that feeling, and he was perfectly wil ling to leave it in the bands of the respective committees to take the sense of the Liberal electors of the borough in any manner they might think fit ; and if they decided against him and in favour of Mr. Mall, he would at once r,tire, and assist by every means in his power to return that gentleman to Parliament. At a meeting held last night, Mr. Miall had been set forth as the champion of religious freedom. That gentleman could not be more so than himself. He (Sir W. Molesworth) was against all interference with the opinions of others. He would afford the fullest liberty of thought to Protestants, Catholics and Dissenters. Jews or Christians on the matter of liberty of speech were the same to him. He would make no difference between them in the eye of the Legislature.—(Cheers.) He had always voted in ac cordance with those principles in Parliament, and be might inform them that the emancipation of the Jews had invariably received his support. While these were his general sentiments on religious liberty, he would inform the meeting, for he had no wish to blink any question, that he was in favour of the Maynooth grant, and had he been in Parliament he should have voted for it. He supported that grant as a measure of State necessity, and as an act of justice to Ireland. A speaker at the meeting of last night, to which he had already referred, (the meeting of the Anti• State Church Asso ciation,) in referring to what he (Sir Wm. Molesworth) had declared on this question, charged him with gross dishonesty. The opinion of any person who could so far forget himself as to use such uncoiirteous expressions was not entitled to much respect. Still he denied, in toto, the charge. So far from being dishonest or shuffling, he had, on every occasion, openly and freely expressed his views on this question. This, too, when he might have evaded the subject altogether, it being retrospective, and involving no point relative to future policy. The Honourable Baronet then proceeded to place before the meeting his general political views— in substance the same as what we have already given. He was in favour of the extension of the suf frage, triennial Parliaments, and vote by ballot. He was also an unqualified free trader.—(Cheers.) He had al way iseen so, and was one of the first in Parliament to propose a total repeal of the corn-laws. He held this to be the great question of the day, paramount to all others. Cheap corn led to an increased consumption of manufac tures, facilitated exchanges between this and foreign countries ; and while it furnished the working classes with low-priced food, it enlarged the field of employ ment, and raised the rate of wages.—(l.lear, hear.) He had now stated his views on all the leading political questions of the day. Should they do him the honour of returning; him to Parliament, he should be most happy, and he would do his best to serve them ; and if at any future time a majority of his supporters were dissatisfied with him he should resign his seat into their hands. He would now submit himself to answer any question that might be proposed.—(Cheers.) An ELECTOR asked if Sir William Molesworth had signed a petition against the Maynooth grant ? .air W. MoLEswowrx answered—No. Mr. MADDOX, of I)ockhead, then moved the usual resolution, that Sir William Molesworth was a fit and proper person to represent the borough in Parliament. The speaker, in the course of his observations, said he was the personal friend, of Mr. Miall, but seeing no chance for him, he came forward to support Sir William Molesworth.—[On making this declaration, he was as sailed by a person in the meeting, who shouted " That he was a turncoat, and that ho had changed his Anti- Maynooth principles." Considerable interruption and confusion wascreated in the meeting by the proceedings of this party, it being self-evident that if he was an Anti-Maynoothite, he was, at all events, not an Anti- Bacchanalian.] Mr. VOUSELEY seconded the resolution. A Chartist in the meeting endeavoured to speak, but the feeling of the meeting being altogether against him, after several ineffectual attempts to speak he de sisted. The resolution was then put and carried all but una. nimously. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman when the meeting separatel MEETING OF MR. MIALL'S FRIENDS. The friends of this gentleman had a meeting last even ing at the London-bridge House Hotel, Mr. Apsley Pellat in the chair ; at which, after hearing an address in exposition of his principles, a resolution that Mr. Aliall was a proper person to represent the borough in Parliament was proposed and carried. The speakers on the occasion, in addition to the candidate, were Mr. R. Fenning, Mr. Joseph Stamburn, the Rev. James Lyon, and Dr. Price. The meeting was a very full one. T _RE AVER. STEAMERS.—AIthough there are a number of very fine boats employed at this moment in carrying passengers on the river, we have reason to know that there are several very old crasy steamers at work for the same object. The manner in which persons receive their tickets for these short voyages affords but little opportunity for them to discri minate in the selection of the steamers in which they are to embark ; but it is really necessary that they should exercise more caution. On Sunday last one of these old steamers sunk near the Red House—fortunately no lives were lost, but such another escape may not occur again. It appears that notwith standing all the talk that this subject has given rise to, steam boats are still without any efficient regulation as to the number of passengers they may carry, or even their fitness for the ser- vice at all. The pier that has been so long in construction at Blackfriars-bridge is still unfinished, and if there is any truth in the report of the amount of competitiop amongst the steamers that its openingwill promote, we think that the City authorities, or rather her Majesty's Government, ought to interfere to prevent the establishment of nuisances so injurious to the neighbourhood and so dangerous to the public. We are quite sure that instead of affording protection to the public, it will be the means of occasioning many fearful accidents. Cheap steam, either by land or water, however desirable, is always danger ous. THE POTATO CROP.—We have heard of some partial detects in the potato crop in Rochford Hundred, arising from mildew, but as no general complaint has reached us, we have reason to hope it is confined to those parts where the land is heavy and not well drained. The crops in the vicinity of this town were sever snore prolific, or of better quality. Lees iforigki. • LINCOLNSHIRE.
