•--- DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES• The Independance of Brussels says :—" We have received important news from Denmark. The extreme Danish party has been vanquished. The intervention of Russia has caused the demands of the German princes in the question of the duchies to prevail. Things will be re-established as they were before the revolution of 1848. Neither Schleswig nor Holstein is to be incorporated in Denmark. Schleswig will not send deputies to the Diet at Copenhagen. M. Charles Moltke has been nominated special Minister for that duchy, and as such will not be responsible to the Danish Chambers. The two duchies will each have an independent Assembly. In short the question is solved according to German pretensions, and the party for the total annexation of Schleswig has com pletely lost all influence at Copenhagen. The federal troops will probably shortly evacuate the duchies." ITALY. In the sitting of the 2011 of the Chamber of Depu ties at Turin, Signor Brofferio, the chief orator of the 'extreme Leif:, addressed the questions to the Minis ters wrdch he had given notice of the day before. But in order to save time, it wee agreed that each question should be separately diecue sod. Signor Brofferio first attacked the Government on the nomination of Signor Farini to the portfolio of Public Instruction, on the ground that he was not.a Piedmohtese, and on the late Papal brief ;against the writings of Professor Nuytz. As to the first objection, Count Cavour took the defence of his colleague who had occupied the post of Under-Secretary of State at Rome, under the con stitutional regime introduced by the Pope in 1848, and had moreover been sent as Envoy Extraordinary to the camp of Charles Albert. Count Cavour spoke highly of the literary productions of his colleague, and vindicated the conduct of the Government in making such a choice. Signor Farini then ascended the tribune, and s poke with great moderation in de fence of certain measures he had taken with respect to the Universities, and which had been attacked by Brofferio. As to the matter of the Papal brief, Signor Deforesta, Minister of Justice, declared that the Go vernment would oppose any discussion on the brief, that being a document officielly unknown to the Go vernment, and having no legal existence in the king dom so long as it was not declared executory in the kingdom. The remaining questions were adjourned to the following sitting. The Venice Gazette announces that one Angelo Zambelli, of Venice, has been condemned to two years' hard labour for having spread a report that re volutions had broken out in France and Russia ; that one Roberri has been condemned to three years' de tention in a fortress for having bad revolutionary pamphlets in his possession ; and one Fortunate Bianchi to eight weeks' military imprisonment, for having insulted the gendarmes in the exercise of their functions. THE LATE KING OF HANOVER. The Hanover Gazette of the 20th has the following official notification :—" The will of the late King of Hanover contains a recommendation to his son thus conceived Ido not object to my body being exposed to the regards of my faithful sub jects, in order that they may cast their eyes on me for the last time. I have never had any other desire nor any other object than to contribute to their happiness. I have never acted from interested views. I have only wished to correct the abuses which were introduced into the administration during a period of 150 years, in the absence of the Sovereign—the ex istence of which, consequently, can cause no surprise.' In consequence his Majesty George V. has ordered that the body of his royal father shall be exposed on Friday and Saturday, the 21st and 223, at from ten to twelve in the morning, and frcm one to four in the afternoon, before th e th rone . E ver yb o dy w ill be ad mitted." Ile Government has ordered that the people shall take mourning fur three weeks. THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE MEDALS IN PARIS TO THE FRENCH EXHIBITORS AT THE GREAT EXHIBTION. ROW IN THE LOUVRE.-THE DISTRIBUTION POSTPONED. The distribution of medals by the President of the French Republic to the successful French exhibi tors in the Great Exhibition was to have taken place on Sunday, but owing to the bad management of the authorities, tickets of admission were issued to a much greater number of persons than the room in which the distribution was to take place could possibly ac• commodate, and the consequence was a row, ending in the postponement of the distribution. Galignani's Messenger gives the following description of the scene : " The presentation of medals by the President of the Republic to the successful portion of the French exhibitors at the Great Exhibition at London was to have taken place yesterday at the Louvre. The whole ceremony was, however, cut short by a scene of the most extraordinary confusion. The salle ap pointed:for the preceedings was that generally known by the designation of the Square Room,' but which most persons will recellect Nettercontaining the noble picture by Paul Veronese, Tne Marriage of Cana in Galilee.' Lvelve o'clock was the hour fixed for the commencement of the dis tribution, but by eleven the room in question was already very nearly filled, and still the holders of tick-ts of admi eion were pouring forward in an uilbrekcei stream. The consequence was, that long heore the time appointed fur the beginning of the ceremony the cruel became tremendous. Not less than 1,700 persons were in fact crowded together in a Niece no calculated to hold more than 1,200 with comfort. The matter became still worse when, as twelve o'clock was on the point of striking, the keepers of the Louvre began to establish a passage for the exhibitors up to tho estrade on which the Presi dent's chair of state was placed. With great difficulty, arid not without a considerable amount of pushing on the one hand, and of murmuring on the other, a narrow lane was opened from the entrance to the estrade. The estrade was exactly opposite the large pictures already mentioned, and on it were placed a gilt chair of state in the centre for the President of the Republic, and two other seats at each side, probably for some of the Ministers, the Archbishop of Paris, the Prefect of the Seine, &c. Benches covered with crimson velvet were pieced on the sides for the jury, the represen tatives of the people, and the President's household. A little before twelve the estrade began to receive its occupants through another entrance, specially resrved ter the persons who were to fill the seats cf honour. M. Lacrosse, the Minister of Public Works, was amongst the first arrivals, and after him Caine M. Berger, the Prefect of the Seine ; Baron Charles Dupin, Count d'Argout, Regent of the Bank of France; de Sillandrouze, General Magnan, General-in-Chief of the army in Paris ; General R quet, &c. A few minutes after twelve the Archbishop of Paris entered, and had scarcely time to speak a few words of sal u t a ti on t o M . B erger an d t h e other notabilities on the platform when a burst of martial music from the grand staircase announced the arrival of the President of the Republic. The Prince entered the moment afterwards, accompanied by M. Dupin, sen., the President of the Assembly ; Cassabiance, the Minister of Commerce ; General de St. Armand, the Minister of War; a number of representatives, and a brilliant staff. The Pre- Bluetit went over at once and spoke to the Archbishop of Paris, and was in the act of saluting the other gentlemen around him, when a dreadful uproar arose from outside the door by which the public entered. Every one mechanically turned to evards the point from w hi c h thi s i n de co r ous interrup tion proceeded, but nothing could be seen save a sea of heads, extending as far as the eye could reach into the other room. Cries for silence arose from the persons i ns id e, b ut all to no purpose, the tumult conneuin g its roar outside, intermingled with cries of We cannot get in !' ‘We can see nothing!' The arrangements are shameful !' and other excla mations of a far Use respectful character against those who had organized the ceremony. The President appeared much annoyed at the contretemps, and seemed to make some observation on the matter to, M. Dupin who stood by his side. At last a l oud voice outside' was heard to exclaim, ' Distribute the me d a l s i n t h e court below ! Ttie weather is most lovely 1' Thi s was responded to by cries of Yes, yes,' from outside, and the gentlemen en the platform appeared to concert amongst themselves on the propriety .of adjourning to some place where all the persons having tick e t s mi l d be admitted: The effect of this short consultation was soon, perceived, as the President and the other gentlemen around him moved off towards the long gallery, which is just beyond the room . where the Ceremony was appointed to take place.At ,. the same moment a file of gendarmes entered, with musket on shoulder, from the grand staircase, and proceeded towards the door, which the discontented crowd WAS besieging. Having taken up their station there, the noise , ,gradually snbided, though not without many an nheer s vetioa beimx made against the utter want of ar rangeront which had characterised the preliminary proceedings. Meanwhile the keepers and servants began to remove thes emnandchairs from the platform into the long gallery.. Ocasionally, as th e d oor opene d to a d m i t one of these officials; that portion of the public which stecd , nearest cont r i ve d to slip in so that the crowd in the outer room began by degree s to move forward. At Let, when the greates t portion of the mattin g on the c-strado had been take n away, the door was Bud! den'y thrown open, and a terrific rush took place, the liberated mass of hum an b e i ngs pouring along in , fall career towards . the other en d o f the gallery, About two-thirds of the way do wn th e chair of state had been ' aga i n placed with the oth er c h a i rs at each side as before; in front stood a few long seats, in tended apparently rather to mark the spot which was to serve as the stopping place of the publi c , t h an to afford sitting accommodation. Behind these teats stood the President of the Republic and the other gentlemen who had figured by his side in the • other room. No doubt, had the plb entereci quietly, the noble gallery into which THE SUN, they were at present admitted, would have sufficed to hold ten times their number ; but all was wild con fusion, marked by indignation on the part of the persons who had been, as they looked on it, unfairly excluded, and by nervous apprehension on the part of those on whom ladies were dependent for protection. Down came the human torrent on the spot where the Prince and his cortege stood, and with such irresis tible violence, that to all appearance the seats and everything else would be swept away before it. Seeing this, and fearing the effect of such a collision, the officers around the President rushed forward with loud exclamations to meet it, and, if possible, to oppose to it a barrier. By immense exertions, and at the risk of great personal danger, they succeeded in stopping the first lines of the crowd ; but the rush was still continuing behind, and the parties who had pulled suddenly up, were now in danger of being borne forward, whether they would or no. Link arms together, gentlemen,' cried the loud voice of General Magnan, and on no account give way ! On you we entrust the task of not allowing a man to advance !' The command was immediately complied with, and the persons in the two first lines having takers each his neighbour's arm, and at the same time bearing strongly back, the farther advance of the crowd was completely re sisted. A body of gendarmes was also placed a little farther down somewhat in advance of the line of seats already spoken V. But this state of calm was only of temporary duration ; for efforts being made to extricate ladies from the crowd, it was necessary for the persons who were linked together in front to un lock their hold on each other's arms, in order to allow them to pass; and soon the facility thus afforded began to he abused, for husbands began to enter under the pro tection of their wives, and murmurs arose. Then at tempts were made to force those persons to retrace their way, and at last disorder arose, which served as the signal for a fresh rush from behind. The front lines endeavoured to oppose it, but they could not make good their footing on the waxed boards, which were as slippery as glass, and the crowd rapidly advanced, though not with the dangerous speed of the preceding ru.h. The gendarmes were borne gradually back until the crowd approached at last the spot where the new preparations for the ceremony had been hastily effected. Here the President of the Republic as cended one of the banquettes, and signing with his hand for silence, the crowd stopped almost imme diately and listened. Gentlemen,' said the Prince, the other room in which the distri bution was to have taken place has unfortu nately proved too small for the number of persons who received tickets of admission. Under the circum stances of the case the best thing that can now be done is to adjourn the proceedings until to-morrow.' The Prince then descended, and, accompanied by his staff and the various persons who had been admitted to the other side of the seats placed across the gallery, left the Louvre by the door which leads into the state apartments of the Palace of the Tuileries. The crowd on the other side of the seats by degrees dispersed, and in about an hour the long gallery was empty. It was arranged yesterday evening that the ceremony shall take place tomorrow, at the Circus, in the Champs Elysees." ITALIAN OPERA IN PARIS The brilliant success of Madlle. Cruvelli in Norma has been followed by a splendid revival of Rossini's chef d'euvre, Semiramide, with Madame Barbieri ns the Assyrian Queen, and M. Belletti making his debut as Assur. All who would form a just esti mate of the marvellous gifts of Madame Barbieri as a singer should hear her in this noble opera ; for we must frankly own that until we heard her in Semiramide we had scarcely an idea of her magnificent powers, or the vast extent of her vocal resources. In Lucrezia Borgia we find her indeed a mistress of her art, but the qualities required are faint and weak in com parison with those demanded by the gorgeous genius of _Rossini in this, the grandest of his works. Her voice, which, with Donizetti, however fine in parts, was sometimes painfully weak and unsteady, in Ros sini, came out with a limpid purity and freshness, that in the very first inorceau struck every listener with surprized delight. No singer that we have ever heard, with the sole exception of Madame Sontag, can be compared with Madame Barbieri for finished execution, and those elaborate marvels of vocal em• broidery, the secret of which is so rarely bestowed. Her "Bel raggio" was perfectly enchanting, being frequently interrupted by murmurs of gratified en joyment, and concluded amid the acclamations of the entire salle. Her duos with Assur and Arsace called forth equal enthusiasm, and her singing of this part fully explains the secret of her immense transalpine renown. We now come to M. Belletti, who, as Assur, at once took his stand before this most dis trustful of audiences as an artiste of the first order. His voice is an extensive barytone, full, firm, and flexible, his style possessing the unmistakable qua lities of the perfect musician, and at the same time displaying an execution more neat, rapid, and facile than we have heard in Paris since the days of Tam burini. After the first few bars of the famous trio " La Del Gange," he received most flattering marks of approbation, w hich went on increasing as the opera progressed ; he fairly shared the honours of the night wiqa Mrne. Barbieri, with whom he was recalled at the conclusion of the duo " Sela vita." M. Belletti's success was decisive, and the habitues of the Italian Opera may now congratulate themselves on possess ing a complete Rossinian troupe in Mme. Barbieri and Messrs. Beletti and Calz - ilari. Mdlle. Ida Ber trand as the Arsace, though remote from her great predecessor Atboni, gave general satisfaction, having unquestionably attained that bright position for a vocalist, of a favourite at the Salle Ventadour. The opera is got up in magnificent style, the chorusses and orchestra leaving nothing to be desired, and the costumes and stage accessories reminding the specta tors of the splendours of her Majesty's Tneatre. Mdlle. Cruvelli continues her most successful career in Norma, and the public are on the ejui wive for her next character; we believe it will be Elvira, in Ernani. Rumour speaks of the engagement of Male. Frezzolini, and also of a great German canta trics, whose name, for the present, is enrapt in mystery.— Gall gnani. THE LATE MATTHIAS ATTWOOD, ESQ. (From the Derbyshire Courier.) This gentleman has so often been referred to in the Courier as the distinguished exponent of financial and monetary principles which we believe to be intimately connected with the welfare of all classes of the com munity, that we cannot refrain from noticing, with most respectful regret, the loss which the country has sustained by his death. Mr. Attwcod was one of the earliest political writers who comprehended the immense advantages which this country had derived from a representative paper money after the Bank Re striction Act in 1797. He also clearly foresaw, and predicted in the most forcible manner, the ill effects which must ensue to the nation if the prin ciples of the Bullion Committee of 1810 were carrried out. Unhappily for the country Mr. Attwood's warning voice was disregarded; but for a long series of years he did not desist, under every possible opposition and discouragement, from the attempt to induce Parliament to retrace its steps. The philosophical research, and the sagacious originality of thought which his speeches in the House of Commons, and his pamphlets display, though they failed at the time to effsct the object of his disinterested and independent labours, remain to statesmen as a t reasure o f pract i ca l wisdom on the confessedly difficult subject of the currency. Of the ability with which Mr. Att• wood advocated his views, ample testimony was repeatedly borne by the most determined of his poli tical opponents—by the late Sir Robert Peel among the number. But the sacrifices which he made, and the extreme labour and exertion which he volun tarily endured in his endeavours to establish princi ples which be:conscientiou.sly believed to be essentially necessary for the preservation of the institutions of the country, and fur the social and moral improvement and happiness of the large masses of his fellow countrymen,—in whose welfare no man took a warmer interest,—these things, we say, are known only to his family and so his friends. Mr. Attwood and his most powerful opponent, Sir Robert Peel, arc now both removed from this earthly scene, but their princi ples remain before the English nation in perpe tual antagonism. We believe Mr. Attwood's views will, ultimately, be proved to be correct—and that the time's will come when the nation will not be slow to render justice to him, and to all who in opposition to the tide of popular prejudice and igno rance courageously stood forward to advocate principles of Justice and Integrity—principles by which the in dustrious classes of the community may be deli vered from the thraldom of capital, and talent, enterprise and labour be no longer bound by the golden chains in which Peel's mistaken policy enslaved not be permitted by divided into t d o 'B la l e ife los ni t them. We sincerely hope that the accumulated wisdom which the records of M u t s o t t afford he w r will ld Mankind may b e see things before into three classes—those who tuey se come to pass, these are wise them ehi after they have come men; those who to pass, these are Fi e .n see nothing either before or e fools. Mr. Attwood belonged to e t r h the tt event, these are a s i n t en; and those who e of rst h w isdom to foresee the end, andurage anu class—he integritysclass—he had purpose to proclaim it. He rests from his Ours. principles, the patriotic n We wait with patience,, convinced th at before longa nation will energyappreciatef a o is d o justiceto the life devoted to the p u bli c good, and :every his memory GLASGOW AND SOUTH-IVESTERN RAlLWAY.—Tratfic for the week ending November 22, 1851: — Passengers (18,533), goods and parcels, horses and carriages.. £3,632 13 8 Corresponding week in last year 3,270 5 6 Glasgow, November 24. DEATH BY FALLING FROM AN APPLE TREE. — Yesterday week, a labourer, named William Lane, aged forty-eight years, while at work in Mr. Day's orchard. Elmstone Hardwick, gathering apples, fell to the ground from a height of about fourteen feet, through a branch breaking. He was conveyed home, when it was found his back was broken. He lingered until Monday, when he died. An inquest was held by Mr. Lovegrove, on Wednesday, and a Terdict Ekoolcieatal death returned.— Gloucester Journal. ~: ~... LONDON, MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

STORY or A Doc .—Sir Edwin Landseer has given character and individuality to dogs such as was never dis played before; but the following story from the Lincoln Times is equal to any of the great artist's conceptions:—" A gentleman resident in Lincolnshire was travelling about 80 or 90 miles from home, and left a favourite little dog at an hotel while he visited another town in the neighbourhood. On his return, the landlady, in dismay, told him his dog had been attacked by largea dog of her own, and had run away from the ho use He left, but returned again to the same hotel after the lapse of a few weeks; when the landlady in formed him that his little dog had returned in the interim, accompanied by a large dog, who attacked her own dog so fiercely that he had nearly killed him. From the description given of the animal, the gentleman entertained no doubt but that it was his own house -dog from Lincolnshire • and on his return home he learnt f rom the servants, that shortly after his departure his little favourite dog returned one day bear ing marks of much ill-usage, and after apparently con sulting with the larger animal, the two dogs set off toge ther, and were absenttsreavveerlald a considerable days, n p a r d es e e r n ab ti l n e g d eLid n en ce. cr , on their return of Wing le EVENING-, NOVEMBER 26, 1851. WEDNESDAY MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Nov. 25. (Before Mr. TURNER, Deputy Assistant• Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates, at the Guildhall, West minster.) CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD A LOAN SOCIETY. John Johnson, aged 39, was indicted for having conspired with a person named Hill (not in cus tody) to obtain by false pretences from one James Dwyer the sum of 41, 143,, with intent to cheat him thereof. Mr. Parry conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. Payne appeared for the defendant. Mr. PARRY, in stating the case, said that he ex pected to be able to prove that he defendant then standing at the bar of that court was one of a gang of persons who availed themselves of the means by which advances of money were made by loan societies to defraud the members of such societies, the plan being for one person to make an application for a loan and refer to an accomplice, who became security, when, the money having been advanced, it was divided between them or among as many as were in the conspiracy. lie believed that it would turn out that the prosecutor of this indictment, which was one of several of a precisely simi lar character which he had preferred against other persons, was a money lender, and the fact of his being so would be urged no doubt by the Learned Counsel for the defendant against his credit; but so long as a money lender did not avail himself of the circum stances of necessitous men to extort extravagant gain, but contented himself with a moderate interest for the sum lent, he, for one, could see no more harm in that man's course of business than in the trade of any other person in that metropolis, where goods were bought and suld for a profit. The Learned Counsel then called James Dwyer, the prosecutor, who deposed that he was a money lender, and had an office in St. Martin's lane, and resided at 9, Brewer-street, "Woolwich. A person named H.ll applied to him for a loan of 51., and referred to a Mr. Johnson, of No. 3, Belvidere place, Cambridge-road, B e th na l- green , as secur it y . Hill filled up the usual form and gave it to him. (It was produced.) In consequence he went to Johnson. That was on the 4th of November. He saw the prisoner at the address given by Hill, and asked him if he was the tenant of the house. He replied that he was, and that he had been so fourteen months ; and witness asked if he had any objection to show the receipts for his rent. He said he had not, and produced four pieces of paper purporting to be receipts, stamped, and signed by a Mr. Bull. He said they were the receipts for rent he had paid for that house. He looked at them and believed them to be genuine receipts, and was quite satisfied with the reference. He showed the prisoner the form, in which his name had been written by Hill as a security, and the prisoner consented to become security for the repayment of the loae. The prisoner and Hill went to the office in St. Martin's-lane, and signed a promissory note for the amount. The money was paid to Hill by the clerk. Hill had absconded. Search had been made for him, but without success. When he went with an officer to Johnson's house, for the purpose of giving him into custody, he asked to be shown again the receipts. The prisoner said his wife had them, and as she was not at home he could not show them, but, when he saw the policeman, he said he had never shown receipts at all. He advanced the money to Hill believing that the representation of the prisoner, that he had lived in the house for fourteen months, was true; and certainly should not have done so had he known that he had lived there since Michael mas last only. In cross-examination, the prosecutor said the loan society consisted of himself only. It was called the " Railway Loan-office." He had not a betting-office at the present time, but he had had one. It was closed a very few hours after the race for the Chester Cup in May last. At that time there were liabilities upon the office amounting altogether to 8,000/. He had paid a large sum off that amount, but he consi dered these questions quite irrelevant to the matter before the Court. He had not paid the whole of the money ; he had paid 1,8001. His losses on the Derby were included in the 8,000/. He did not lose that sum upon the Chester Cup only. He had 4,6001. owing to him at the " Corner" (Tattersall's). Never advertised for holders of his tickets on the Chester Cup to appear at Worship-street Police-court. An advertisement to that effect was published, but it was a hoax. He was not there, and could not tell whether the ticket-holders wore there. He kept the office for three years. In the loan business he had not rejected more than five applications out of 170. He had been the " Loan Company" for three months. In Si. loans 4/. 14s. was advanced, a year's interest being deducted, and the borrower had to pay the costs of the inquiries as to the security. In the present case there was another security beside the prisoner It was a person named Taylor. The prisoner was given into custody before the first instalment of the loan was due from Hill. He was given into custody on the Friday evening, and the first instalment would have been due ou the following Monday. Re- examined—The parties who held his tickets had been quite satisfied with what he had done. He had give❑ them 100 per cent. on the money they had placed in his hands. For instance, if he received 51. frorn a person he had returned 101. It was his inten tion to liquidate the whole of his liabilities. He should obtain the 4,600/. owing to him at Tattersall's, if he could clear up his tickets. He had no doubt he should receive it. Michael Ryan proved the advance of the money to Hill, and the signature of the prisoner to the pro missory note. James Bull stated that he was a rent collector, and lived at No. 4, Belvidere-place, Cambridge-road, Bethnal-green. The prisoner lived at No. 3. The prisoner never paid him any rent. None was due, for he only entered upon possession of the house at Mi chaelmas last. Was confident he bad never given him any receipt, and that the prisoner had not lived there for fourteen months. Police-constable Brown, 421 K, said he took the prisoner into custody. When Mr. Dwyer asked him to produce his receipts he said he could not as his wife was out, and she had them. Did not hear him deny that he had ever shown receipts to Mr. Dwyer, but he might have done so. Mr. PAYNE then addressed the jury. He said the prisoner had got into his present situation through serving a friend who had taken him in, and that he was a man more sinned against than sinning. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to comment in a vey strong manner upon the prosecutor, and the facts which had come out in his cross - examination, and in refer ence to betting-offices, he said they were the greatest curse that ever befell this country, for to them thou • sands, not only individuals, but families owed their ruin, for men who possessed ample fortunes had lost every penny, and reduced themselves and those who were dependent upon them to beggary and ruin, by only one half-hour's speculation upon the Derby, at these pests of betting-offices. The prosecutor had talked about having paid 100 per cent. to those who held his tickets ; but, though he had paid 101. each to those who had put 51. in his hands, and so on, he no doubt owed them hundreds, and of all persona in the world he was one of the last who should have pre ferred a charge of fraud like the present. The pri soner, unfortunately, had become surety for Hill, but he had been asrested and charged with conspiracy to defraud actually before the first instalment was due, so that the prosecutor had not waited to see whether the money would lee repaid by the security or not. The DEPUTY-JUDGE, in summing up, told the jury that in his opinion the case was tolerably clear, if they believed the prosecutor's evidence ; so far as the evi dence went, there appeared nothing to show that he was a person not to be credited on his oath. The jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. PARRY said there were, as the Court were aware, indictments against three other persons for this same offence, and against a fourth, named lon, the grand jury had found a true bill for forgery, and that case would be sent to the Central Criminal Court for trial. He did not know, therefore, ivnether the Court would at once pass sentence, on the prisoner, or defer doing so until the other persons were tried; but if the Learned Chairman thought of sentencing the pri soner at once, he had to say, that from information the prosecutor had received there was no doubt but that the prisoner was one of a number of persons who systematically practised this plunder on loan- offices, and he was well known to several of those institu tions. A more mischievous system of fraud could not prevail. Inspector Brennan said he knew the prisoner. For the last three or four years he had been the con stant associate of skittle sharpers, and persons who imposed upon the public by fictitious and plausible stories. Mr. PAYNE desired to know why Brennan inter fered in the matter. He had done so without any solicitation. Mr. PARRY said Brennan was very properly dis charging his duty as a public officer, and he was not to be censured for so doing by Mr. Payne. The Inspector said such attacks, ifcontinually made upon the police, would hare the effect of deterring them from fully performing their duty to the public, but would not as far as he was concerned. The DEPUTY-JUDGE said Brennan was quite right. The COURT sentenced the prisoner to six months' imprisonment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. James Donnell, aged 18, and Ellen 111.Carthy, aged 12 years, were charged with having been concerned in working an illicit still. The LORD MAYOR—The case is perfectly clear; It is evident that the little girl was concerned in the offence, not only from the condition in which her clothes were, but from her anxious advice to the male prisoner to " run." It is, I regret to say, my duty to commit her, as well as the male prisoner, but I request that she may be taken before the ladies who so hpreanely inquire into the cam of, and administer relief to, poor unprotected children, and that the Board of Excise be petitioned to agree to the commutation of her punishment. It is deplorable to think that the defendants must have been engaged in this serious breach of the law by experienced persons who have kept out of the way to seeure themselves, no doubt calculating upon the lenity of the chief magistrate in such a case. It is my duty to fine each of the defend ants 301., or to send them to prison for three calendar months. defendant rested upon the testimony of Duncan,whoge extraordinary story was utterly unworthy of belief. Ile should consequently dismiss the case, forbearing to make any remark upon the conduct of the police men engaged in the affair, which should be the sub- ject of investigation in another quarter. Inspector Marsh stated that he had been kept in ignorance of the circumstances deposed to in evidence. The defendant was dismissed. MAR YL EBONE. Charles Frederick Krohn was placed at the bar for further examination, on the charge of having carried on a system of depredation at hotels and other places to a very considerable extent. The Marquis of Granby, the Rev. Mr. Hughes, and another gentleman, who had been sufferers by the nefarious practices of the prisoner, were accom modated with seats by the bench. Mr. Hann%nt, the inspector, who has been actively engaged ever since the prisoner's apprehension in sifting thoroughly the system of robbery carried on by the accused, was now prepared to go into other cases. The Marquis of Granby, 5, Hyde-park-gate, de posed that on Saturday night, the 3d of August, he slept at an hotel at Dover, and that early the next morning he mused his gold watch, guard, and some seals, also three sovereigns. He had not locked his door before be went to bed. He (the Marquis) bad understood that a foreigner had slept in the next room to him, and had gone away in the morning very early. Mr. Suffell, a pawnbroker, in Commerce-place, Brixton-road, produced a gold watch and guard which bad been pledged at his shop on the 4[ll of September, for 91., in the name of " Hermanson." These articles were identified by his Lordship as being his. Mr. Legge, a surgeon, residing at Cambridge House, Clapham-road, stated that the prisoner came to lodge and board with him on the 27th of August, bringing with him two portmanteaus. He said that he was from Denmark, and had a great deal to do in the shipping business. After staying some time, he went away 151. in debt, and witness heard nothing more about him until he saw an account of his ex amination in the newspapers He came in the name of Hermanson, and left behind him his boxes, which had in them articles of very little value. Some evidence of the most conclusive nature was gone into as to the prisoner being the person who had occupied a room at the Prince of Wales Hotel, and who had left in his sleeping apartment the bag con taining a Mr. Gunning's property. Frances Doubleday, chambermaid at the Mount Hotel, Grosvenor-street, deposed that on the 21st of June last the prisoner came to the establishment and inquired if he could have a bed for nine nights. He was told that he could only have it for three nights, and he was shown up into a room No. 24. In about an hour afterwards he went away, saying that he was going to the Custom-house, where his luggage was detained. The Rev. Mr. Hughes, Asburst Rectory, Sussex, deposed that on the 21st of June he was staying with his wife at the Mount Hotel, and that he lost a silver flask, jewellery, and other property to the value of 541. Mr. John Wombwell, 44, Eaton-square, said that he was staying at the hotel at the period in question, and that he lost a watch. Mr. Folkard, pawnbroker, Wandsworth -road, pro duced a silver flask and a gold bracelet, and also a watch, pledged by the prisoner, the whole amount advanced to him heing 6/. 15s. Mrs. Sarah Anne Routledge,6, Cambridge-terrace, Clapham-road, said that the prisoner came to her house on the 9th of May, and lodged with her nine weeks. He behaved himself well while with her, and paid great attention to her daughter, to whom he gave a watch, but they had a quarrel, and he took it from her. Four cases were completed against the prisoner, and Inspector Hannant has still in his possession se veral duplicates relating to valuable articles, the owners of which are not yet forthcoming. The prisoner, who had nothing to say in answer to either of the charges, was remanded till next Tuesday. Mr. Hudson, of the firm of Maples and Pearce, at. tended to watch the case on the part of the Great Western Railway Company, as did also Mr. Collard, the superintendent of the company's police.

James Bellaers, representing himself as a surgeon at 5, Nile-street, New North-road, who is stated to be connected with the Quaker Milson, examined at this court on Monday last, was yesterday brought up before Alderman Carter on two separate charges, one for causing the death of a child three weeks old, and the other for obtaining 1/. Is. under false pretences. Mr Vann attended for the prosecution and Mr. Hobler for the prisoner. Mr. Vann stated that since the examination of the prisoner Milson on Monday Bellaers's house had been searched by an officer, and a glass tablet with the names of Bellaers and " Dr. Harris" as surgeon and physician upon it was found ; also the book that pri soner was charged by Dr. Young with stealing some time since. He would also be prepared to show that since the examination of Milson prison had procured the apprehension of Dr. Young, who was now in the custody of the Sheriff of Middlesex on a capias ob tained at the Judge's chambers on the oath of some person that Dr. Young was about to quit the country to avoid the proceedings taken by the prisoner against him for false imprisonment, in giving him into custody on the charge of stealing the identical book found since at his house by the officer. Mr. Hobler said that the proceeding was taken without any reference to the case of Milson. He also objected to the M igistrate's jurisdiction, as the offences imputed to the prisoner took place in Middle. sex, and not in the City. Alderman CARTER said prisoner was taken in the City, and the Act left it in his discretion; he would therefore entertain jurisdiction, as he thought it im portant that Milson and Bellaers should be brought up together, as they were evidently in collusion. Police-constable 664 said he apprehended the pri soner on Monday afternoon at the top of King-street, Cheapside, and took him to Bow-lane station, and from there, by the inspector's orders, to the Hackney station, when he was there charged by Francis, the officer, with causing the death of a child three weeks old, and also with obtaining 1/. ls. under false re presentations. Yesterday morning witness brought prisoner to this court, and on the way the latter said that "Harris was the vagabond that brought him into it." Henry Francis, 227 N, said he went to prisoner's house on Monday afternoon, and was told by his wife that Bellaers was not at home. Witness, however, searched the house, knowing prisoner was already in custody, and found a ground glass tablet with the fol lowing inscription upon it :—Mr. Bellaers.—William Harris, M.D., Surgeon and Accoucheur, &c. Ad vice and vaccination gratis." He also found some books, and from what he heard of Dr. Young's evi dence on Monday, he had no hesitation in saying some of them were that gentleman's property. He produced the following from among the papers found with the books :—" Received of Mr. Bellaers 105, on account of Dr. Harris, for William Williams.—Nov. 15, 1851." Robert Smith said he got the above tablet executed at prisoner's request. Francis here said he omitted to mention that at the station prisoner asked him how Harris had got on, and he told him he was remanded for a week. Mr. Vann then asked for a remand, in order that the prisoner might be brought up with Milson at a future day, as he intended to charge them both with conspiracy, and it was highly probable that a still more serious charge would be preferred—viz., that of issuing, in conjunction with Harris, a false burial certificate. Mr. nobler said—With regard to that, Mr. Wak ley, the coroner, had expressed himself satisfied with the particulars of the child's death, and accordingly directed its burial, and there could not therefore have been any false certificate issued. Mr. Vann said he was informed by the officers that the coroner intended holding an inquest on the body of the child during the week. Alderman CARTER said it ought to have been done before, under all the circumstances. There was sufficient in evidence to satisfy his mind that Bellares was connected with Milson, and equally culpable. He should therefore remand them to be brought up together. _ _ _ BOW-STREET. Richard Beer, a shoemaker, lodging in Cursitor street, Chancery-lane, surrendered upon a warrant (issued by Mr. Hall), charging him with a violent assault upon police-constable Lewis Harris, 69 F, while the latter was on duty within the Liberty of the Rolls. The complainant, who appeared to have sustained considerable injury in some way, stated that he was walking alone in Cursitor-street, between one and two o'clock in the morning of the 11th inst., when a man, _ _ whom he had since ascertained to be the defendant, came up to him and struck him a violent blow on the nose with his clenched fist, by which he was knocked down and stunned. When he became conscious he found himself in King's College Hospital, and, from the injuries received, he had been since unable to attend to his duties. Cross -examined by Mr. Ablett (who appeared for the defendent)—He had been three years in the police force. Was perfectly sober at the time in ques tion. He had been assisting at a fire at the corner of Castle-street, Holborn, and, in the course of the even ing had only drunk half a pint of porter, a small glass of whisky, and a small glass of rum, the latter having been given him by a Mr. May, in Holborn-bars, as he was wet through. He did not fall till he was knocked down, and was not taken home drunk. Thomas Duncan, a bootmaker, living in Chiches ter-rents, said that he was standing at the corner of Cursitor-street, when the defendant, who was the worse for liquor, came up and said, " I have got a b-- policeman down here, in a passage, and I am determined to murder the —. Come and see me do it." Witness accompanied the defendant, after some hesitation, and found the complainant lying upon the ground, in a passage. The defendant struck and kicked him several times, and then witness went out and fetched a policeman. Cross-examined—He went with the defendant out of curiosity, and not as a witness. The complainant seemed stupified, but not drunk. Mrs. Saunders, the landlady of the house, came down stairs, and wit ness heard her say, " Go and fetch a policeman." Mrs. Saunders, the wife of a leathercutter, who oc cupied No. 10, Cursitor-street, stated that the de fendant lodged in her house. Between one and two o'clock on the morning in question the family were disturbed by his knocking at the door and calling for a light, He said he had found a policeman lying in the road, and, when a light was procured, they saw the complainant lying in the passage, apparently insensible, but able to speak. The defendant asked him " How he got into such a mess," and he replied that "He had been to the fire." Witness rebuked the defendant for bringing in a man in such a con dition, and, seeing the witness Duncan there, she desired him to go and fetch a policeman. The com plainant was bleeding from his nose and forehead, which were washed. On the arrival of a constable he inquired who had been ill-treating him, upon which the complainant replied, " The young man," meaning the defendant, who had then gone upstairs. Several policemen arrived shortly afterwards, and witness heard them say that they could not tell how he got so tipsy. Eventually they took him away on a stretcher. Cross-examined—The defendant had asked wit ness's husband to allow the complainant to remain in the passage until the sergeant had passed by, or he would be sure to get into trouble. He appeared to be treating the complainant with great kindness. He had lodged with witness's husband for seven years, and had always borne a good character. The witne ss Duncan made no complaint to the policemen respect ing the defendant. Mr. E. Davis, the house-surgeon at King's College Hospital, deposed to having been called up by the night porter, at two o'clock in the morning, to attend the complainant, who was brought in upon a stretcher by some other policemen. The complainant was covered with blood, and witness dressed his wounds. He appeared stunned, as witness supposed, by the blows he received. Witness did not ask him if he had been drinking. He did not consider the injuries of a serious nature, and would not undertake to say that they were not occasioned by a fall instead of blows. Witness saw the defendant three days afterwards, and signed a certificate to the effect that he was not in toxicated when first brought to the hospital. Mr. JARDINE—Do you believe he was sober at the time ? Witness could not say positively. He con sidered the man's insensibility might have been caused by the injuries he had received, but he could not un dertake to say that he was not intoxicated. Mr. JARDINE—And yet you actually signed this certificate, declaring that he was sober. It was a most improper thing to do. Here was a man whose duty it was to preserve order in the streets, and whose actual condition it was of the utmost import ance to ascertain, and you would screen him from the probable effects of an inquiry, by certifying to a fact which you are wholly unable to support in evidence. Such conduct should be represented to the hospital authorities. Witness—My impression was that he was stunned. Mr. JARDINE—We had better say nothing more about it.
