MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal.) The amount of business transacted this week has not been above the average; but we find inquiries for shares in most of our leading mines, and for some that have been dormant for a considerable time. We learn that the mines generally, in the counties of Cornwall and Devon, are in a more ani mated position than they have been for some years, and that the progressing improvements are of a very exciting and gratifying character. The mines in the Caradon district are looking remarkably healthy. At South Caradon, we learn that a very rich lode has been recently cut. The Phoenix alines are now likely to remunerate the enterprising company ; for, after several years of perseverance and great outlay, tey have succeeded in cutting a splendid lode, estimated worth 90/. per fathom, and making a profit of upwards of 500/. per month. Holm bush' is reported to have much improved during the last fortnight. At Wheal Seton meeting, a dividend of Si. per share was declared, carrying to credit of the mine 438/. 12s. 6d. A profit of 9251. 13s. Id. was realised on the two months' working. At the half-yearly meeting of the Uninn Tin Smelting Company, a dividend of 10 per cent. on the capital was de clared on the 9th inst. The annual general electing of the Tincroft Mining Com pany was held on the 10th inst., when the statement of ac counts.produced showed a balance in favour of the mine of 918/. 9s. Id. The sales of ores during the year realised 38,070/. 12e. l Id. At the South Tamar meeting the balance sheet showed credit of 3134 195. 9d. in favour of the mines ; and, after pro ' viding for March and April costs, the assets in reserve will be 2,241/. 3s. Id. The mine is in an improving and profit able position. At the East Tamar meeting the accounts showed a balance against the mine of 4491. 12s. id. A call of as. 6d. per share was made; and, from present appearances, there is very little probability of any further calls being required. At the West Polgooth meeting, acccording to the report furnished, the surface operations are going on satisfactorily. At a general meeting of shareholders in Cwm Erfin, the report furnished by the manager, Mr. John Taylor, jun., was considered highly encouraging; and, to bring the mine into a more profitable and productive state by the erection of the necessary appliances, it was deemed advisable to make a call of 21. per share, to be paid by instalments of 10s. per share, as required, at intervals of not less than two months. The several other mines in Cardigan under the same able management, are represented to be in a very gratifying and productive position —amongst which we may notice Lisburne, which will sample, on the 22d inst., 120 tons of silver-lead or ; Goginan, 90 tons ; and Cwmystwith, 80 tons—being the produce of one month's raisings for each mine. Nanteos is stlso stated to be highly promising, Bwlch Consols, Court Grange, and Daren Mines, are represented in a most profit able position, as far a s th e operations are being carried out. Other mines in the same district, under the supervision of Captain Matthew Francis, are progressing highly satisfac torily—being as yet in a less advanced state. Shares in the following mines-have changed hands this week:—Devon Great Consols, East Wheal Rose, South Tol gee, Stray Park, Lisburne, North Pool, Treviskey and Bar rier, Botallack, Daren, South Basset, Tincroft, Trehane, Devon and Courtenay, Trelawny, East and South Tamar, Bedford United, Penzance Consols, Kingsett and Bedford, Ileignston Down Consols, Bishopston, Mary Ann, Cook's Kitchen, Tremayne, West Caradon, Alfred Consols, Trethevy, Cwru Erfin, East Buller, Pencraig Ddu, and Caenant. In Foreign Mines, the transacticns this week have been in United Mexican, Copiapo, St. John del Rey, Imperial and National Brazilian, Cobre, Santiago. THE ARMYAND — NAVY. (From the United Service Gazette.) IlsarrachED Pa Y.—The unattached pay of twenty-five shillings per diem has been granted to Major-Generals W. L. Walton and Charles R. Fox. The services of the former officer have been of a distinguished character. He was with the Guards at Copenhagen, in 1807 ; afterwards embarked for the Peninsula, and served the campaigns of 1809, 10, and • 11. He was present at the passage of the Douro and the capture of Oporto, the battles of Talavera and Busaco, and the retreat upon Tprres Vedras. He was afterwards in Hol land, Belgium, and France, and was present at the bombard ment of Antwerp, the attack on Bergen-op- Zoom, the battles of Qaatre Bras and Waterloo. Major-General Fox is Surveyor -General of the Ordnance, and has seen no service, as he did not enter the army until after Waterloo. Tilt: VACANT. COLONELCIII9.—Lietth-General Sir James Douglas, K.C.8., who has for some time held the Colonelcy of fhe 93d Fuot, has been appointed Colonel of the 42d High landers. Sir James is an officer of distinction. His services at Busaco, Salamanca, the Pyrenees, Nivelle, Nive, Orthes, and Toulouse earned for him a gold cross and three clasps, and the title he bears. The Colonelcy of the 93d has been conferred on Major-General William Wemyss, who also served in the Peninsula, and was present at the battle of Fuentes d'Onor. Gus 1:00S1 MESS EXTRAVAGANCE.—We have good grounds for believing that the Admiralty contemplate a re vision of the Mipshipmen's Mess Regulations, with the view of correcting the extravagant practices at present too preva lent in some of our largest ships. The first step of their -Lorships will be to limit the indulgences of the youngsters, by not allowing gun-room officers any mess-man. STAFF.—Lietenant M`Nair, the adjutant of the London recruitingalistrict, will shortly be promoted to an unattached company, and will be succeeded by Lieutenant and Adjutant Wyndowe, of the 4Rfh Regiment.

BaisTor„ .Aratr. 12.—Considerable excitement has been created in One of our most fashionable suburban districts by a most daring outrage. We withhold th e n s mes of the persons for obvious reasons, but the facts are as fallow :—ln one of the most healthy parts near Clifton, in a large handsoinsly furnished house, resides a highly respectable farmer with a wife pos sessed of no ordinary attractions, and they have been in the habit e f letting- out apartments to families of respectability. On Thursday a tall, stout, well dres,ed man, wearing coloured spectacles, called at the house, and he represented to Mrs. -- that he had been recommended to her house by the Rev. Mr. D---, of Clifton, and he wished to take apartments for the season for him.elf, his wife, two children, and three servants. Mrs. -- proceeded to show him the , apartments on the ground floor, and whilst examining, them he managed to fish out from her that, her husband and, the servants were absent on the farm, and that she was the only person in the house. He then desired to see the bed-rooms ; but Mrs. told him they were precisely similar in size to those below. He still persisted th a t h e s hould like to see the m , an d on Mn.s. telling him his lady would be the most proper person to examine the bedding; he still pressed her, and told her she need not be afraid of him, as he was the father of a family. Unfortunately Mrs. was thro wn , o ff her guard, arid went up stairs to show him the bedrooms. Im mediately on their entering one of them the ruffian laid hold of her , a nd a str aggle ensued, in which the lady's garments were very much torn and her shoulder was much lacerated. The unfortunate lady, having escape( i the grasp , of her opponent, rushed to thestair case with a view of escaping by the front door, b u t her foot slipped, and she was precipitated to the bottom of the staircase, folloWed by the on her, and dra gge d ruffian, who jumped her to the door which he secured ,by locking it. He then dragge ' d her by the legs into the par lour, where h e actually tore her dress and under gar ments to pieces. The lady still struggled with her ravisher, when he pulled a handsome gold watch out of his pocket and offered it to her if she would comply with his wishes, but she indignantly refused it. He then put his hand into his pocket, and from the brutal manner in which.he had already served her, she, imagining that he was about to murder her, implored him not to cut her throat and to spare her honour. It was his handkerchief, - however, which he drew out, and with which he proceeded to bind her hands. The lady still struggled with the ruffian till she became senseless, and was found by her husband on his return borne quite inanimate, the brutal ruffian having effected his purpose and escaped, owing to the insen sible state of his victim. The police have been put in possession of the facts, but the fellow, has as yet eluded discovery. The unfortunate lady now lies-i baring since the in a most precarious condition, outrage had a succession of hysteric fits. • • Tha Board of Trade returns for the month ending the .sth of March were issued on Friday.

It appeared to him that the point raised by Mr. Turner, as to whether it would be better for the boys to put them out to trade at fourteen, or retain them in college until they were eighteen, with the possibility of their being placed in some occu pation in which they would fail, had very little to do with the question at issue. It was held in the will-known case of " Phillips v. Berry," that what the founder of a charity willed. if it were not opposed to law, must be carried into effect. It was admitted that this ought to be a grammar school for the boys, whether they went to trades or to the University; but such was not its charac ter; Greek was not taught in it. It had been said that the boys were taken from a class which rendered it impossible for them to rise into the superior stations of life. It was not necessary, however, that they should be paupers; they must be necessitous, but their parents might have been highly respectable. If any difficulty of that sort existed what was the way to set it right? The memorialists asked for a scheme, and he should be quite content to leave it to his Learned Friends whom the college had consulted to draw it up. The question had been asked, what would become of the scholars when they had passed through the university? They were to remain at the latter eight years; they would then have the intellect which God had given them—the education which his Grace had been the means of imparting to them; and if they did not make their way in life let them sustain the consequences. It was a part of Mr. Alleyne's scheme that some of the scholars should ulti mately become fellows of the college, but that intention was entirely negatived by sending them out to trades at fourteen years of age. It had been said that it was necessary to found a school at Dulwich separate from the college, because the inhabitants would not allow their sons to mingle with the college boys. His Grace might inquire into that, but he (Mr. Rult) be lieved it would be found that the education given at the college was so inferior that parents would not accept of it. Mr. Turner bad suggested a doubt as to whether the funds could be applied to the maintenance of the scholars at the university, inasmuch as they would then have ceased to be members of the college. That was a fallacy ; money might be set apart f or t h em while in the colege to be paid hereafter. It was admitted that the amount to which the boys were entitled was 8401. per annum, while there was expended upon them only 682 Z a year. That however, was a dif ference of nearly ene-fourth ; but, according, to his cal culation, they were entitled to at least 1,1004 If the founder had not filled up his scheme as to education, as there w ere surp l us f un d s, i t was compe tent to the visitor to do it, who would strengthen that part of the college in which weakness existed. In rescinding the order of Archbishop Sheldon, his Grace would of course exercise confidence in the six assistants, who were always gentlemen of high respectability, and with respect to whom there was no reason to suppose that they would act arbitrarily or from caprice. As to the letting of the lands, the memorialists contended 'that the college did not make so much of them as they might do. It might be said that that was to their own injury. but - it must be remembered, that if they accumulated a large surplus, Parliament might then step in and deal with it as it had with other corporate property. The college, therefore, bad an interest in not obtaining too large a revenue. Nothing had been said with respect to costs; but if the memorialists had a reasonable right to ask the advice of his Grace, he was sure that his Grace would recommend the expenses to be paid out of the college funds. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said that it would be necessary to take the advice of the Learned Gentlemen who had so kindly assisted him as assessors; he must, therefore, take time to consider the case. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT OLD COURT. EXTORTION OF MONEY BY AN INFAMOUS CHARGE. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of Saturday. ) Mr. Wyatt, the prosecutor, Mrs. Legg, his niece, and several other witnesses, were called, and their evidence was conclusive against the prisoners. The prosecutor stated that the accused parties bad obtained altogether from him about 504, which he was induced to give under the influence of their threats. This was the case for the prosecution. The Learned Counsel for the prisoners then severally addressed the jury, and Laidler, in his own defence, dc elared that he was innocent of any intention to extort money, and declared that the only object he had in view was to act as a friend to Mrs. Legg. Mr. Baron PLATT summed up, and the jury imme diately returned a verdict of Guilty against all the prisoners. _ _ _ Mr. PARNELL then took a technical objection in arrest of judgment to the form of the indictment, which His LORDSHIP said he would take into consideration and accordingly postponed passing sentence until Mon day morning. NEW COURT. William Battersby, 21, Thomas Hart, 28, James Purcell, 29, marine, Henry Taylor, 18, Matthew Cowdy, 26, William Lemon, 22, James O'Brien, 20, Samuel Robinson, 25, William Jamieson, 21, Evan Evans, 19, John Wall, 24, Thomas Hart, 28, James Purcell, 29, John Martin, 21, Kennedy Wilkinson, 22, Edwin Griffin, 21, William Wedd, 20, and Henry Tapping, 21, were jointly indicted for riot and assault. The prisoners all pleaded not guilty. Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Parry said they appeared for several of the defendants. The RECORDER said he had looked over the depo sitions, and did not see that any one was seriously injured, and wanted to know how many police, show men, and show-tumblers had taken part in the affair ? Mr. BALLANTINE and Mr. PARRY said that in point of fact the soldiers were the only parties injured, and were taken by the police in consequence of the injuries they exhibited at the time, and which was sought to be made evidence of their having taken part in the riot. Mr. PAYNE said that was not a fact. Mr. BALLANTINE said he had been given to under stand that the clown had made some illusion to the soldiers that was offensive to them as a body, and that he had spat upon the hat of one of them. Mr. PARRY said it was just the trick a clown would do. Mr. PAYNE said that when the riot commenced the clown was attending to his duties acting in the inside of the booth. Mr. BALLANTINE—My Learned Friend is making a statement quite in error, and exhibits an entire ignorance in these matters, as we well know that at booths all the acting is on the outside.—(Laughter.) Mr. PAYNE said that he bowed with submission to Mr. Ballantine's remarks, as he felt that he had a knowledge of such matters far exceeding him. The RECORDER--Clowns generally say more than is set down for them. Ido not see that any persons injured, or that the Police Commissioners, have thought fit to take any part in the prosecution. Mr. PAYNE said that Mr. Lee had been made the prosecutor, but that he bad not the least vindictive ness in the matter. Besides being proprietor of the show, he was manager of on e o f our L on d on th ea t res . The RECORDER—And would sooner see all the defendants in his theatre, than where they are. — (Laughter.) Is it necessary that any evidence should be offered ? Mr. PAYNE—It is impossible that the case can finish like this. The RECORDER, having learnt that they had been e in prison for ten . days, said h e th oug ht that was nough, and as much as they wou ld ge t if convicted —not that he considered the gentleman to whom the show belonged was at all to blame. Mr. Nelson Lee said he had most unwillingly been brought forward, although he would not admit that any blame was attributable to his clown ; and also begged to state that he bad been a considerable loser by the injury done to his show, still he had no wish to press the charge. Mr. BALLANTINE said that Mr. Lee had acted most kindly throughout the whole affair. The RECORDER said he had looked over the deposi tions, but could not find out bow the affray first began. Mr. Nelson Lee was then sworn, and said that the first he saw of the matter was a soldier drive the hat over the eyes of a civilian, who remonstrated, and then some one struck him, and a general fight fol lowed ; and he, thinking that by getting the person into his booth they might have got him out another and beat every one ; and, having cleared way, and so en d the quarre l : the soldiers the n got up the step the place, commenced breaking the lamps, and con tinued their violence until overpowered by the civi lians and police. He did not know if the man who was bonneted bad given any offence to the soldier. Several other witnesses deposed to individual acts of violence on the part of the soldiers, and identified Lemon, Griffin, E vans O'Brien, and Jamieson as having committ e d actual assaults, and added, that for the three days the soldiers had gone in a body through the fair assaulting everybody. Tee RECORDER again said that the prosecutor had behaved with much forbearance; and that conduct such as that deposed to could not be tolerated. Mr. BALLANTINE and Mr. PARRY said that those who had been pointed out should plead guilty ; for though there had been a mutual aggravation he could not, as a lawyer, justify their conduct. Mr. Lee said that whether he was recompensed or not, he had no f e elings of a vindictive nature, and should leave the matter in the hands of the Court. A verdict of Guilty was then taken against the five identified, and an Acquittal on the part of the others. • The RECORDER, in addressing them, said they had made some atonement by pleading guilty, and he was ready to suppose they had not any original purpose in view when they commenced the riot, which might be viewed more as an act of indiscretion than other wise, but going out as they did in a body, their presence was enough to create terror, and they must learn to put more restrait on their feelings. He was glad to find that their conduct in gaol had been good. Mr. Lee had been a sufferer by the quarrel, and he did hope that, after the spirit of forbearance he had evinced throughout the whole prosecution, that he would not be permitted to be the loser in the affair. He should bind each of the defendants over to keep the peace for twelve months, a sentence which would not cast stain on them m soldiers ; and he hoped that for the future this would serve as a lesson for them to Act with more temperance and dis. eration. The recognizances were then entered into, and they were discharged. Just after the Court had been adjourned, and as the Learned Recorder was about leaving the bench, Mr. BODKIN came into court, and, addressing his Lordship, said he wished to make a few remarks relative to an affair that had occurred on the previous day. _ The RECORDER said the Court was not sitting, but if ➢lr. Bodkin wished it he had no objection to hear him. Mr. BODKIN said that the respect he personally en tertained for the worthy Under-Sheriff, Mr. Wir e , coupled with that of the other gentlemen of the bar, led him to make the remarks he was about to do. The Learned Ctunsel then referred to the remarks made by his Lordship upon the conduct of Mr. Wire, and said that his wish was to remove any misappre hension that might exist in the mind of his Lordship, that the under-sheriff had any pecuniary end in view in taking possession of the property found upon pri soners. The RSCORDER said he was not under any misap prehension of the sort, and he did not see how any one else could be. He had made the remarks in con sequence of the sheriff having contravened the orders of the court. Mr. BODKIN said that the applause which followed his Lordship's remarks, and which were alluded to in the report, would lead the public to infer that the under-sherff was actuated by pecuniary motives. The RECORDER, said there was nothing in the re port to warrant any such inference being drawn. Mr. BODKIN said the under-sheriff had only done that which he thought to be his duty, and would ex plain to his Lordship that there had been an altera tion in the manner in which the sheriffs were called upon to send in their accounts to the proper autho rities. The RECORDER said that could not interfere with he law upon which he had acted. Mr. BODKIN said it was under that impression the under sheriff had acted. The RECORDER said there was not any imputation upon the character of the sheriffs or under-sheriff, excepting that they had acted in direct contravention of the order of the Court. He (the Learned Recor der) had no feeling in the matter ; either pleasant or unpleasant he had made an order which was inter fered with. What he had said was to vindicate the honour of the Court, and with it he was satisfied. Mr. Wire then explained that there was not any pecuniary benefit arising from their taking posses sion of property. There was a great deal of trouble attending the office, and they rendered an account to a sixpence of all they received. They took care of property taken from felons committed from the coun ties oat of their jurisdiction, and faithfully handed it over to them. The RECORDER said he did not doubt it. The sheriffs of the counties from whence felons were com mitted should have an officer present to receive the property taken from them, and not trouble the Sheriffs of London. In this case it belonged to the Sheriff of Kent. In this case there had,been a contraven tion of the order of the Court ; it was upon that he had spoken, and what he had said he should not hesi tate to say again should the order of the Court be in terfered with. Still he wished to be distincly under stood that no imputation had been cast on the sheriffs or under-sheriffs. Mr. Wire, with much warmth, said he still felt him self aggrieved. TheßEcounEa coolly replied that had he expected such a remark he should not have allowed the ex planation. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BO W-STREET. HOSTILE TIIREATS.—AIfred Godfrey, a young man, was charged before Mr. Henry with having, on the 10th inst., and at other times, used threats of violence towards Mrs. Henry Phillips, the wife of the vocalist of that name, from which she went in bodily fear. Mrs. Phillips stated that the prisoner was her brother, and that they had for same time been at variance. This, in fact, was the second time on which she had occasion to prefer a similar complaint against him. Mr. Phillips, the husband of the complainant, stated that he had a great number of letters in his possession, in the handwriting of the prisoner, couched in terms of the most offensive description, added to which, during his absence from home on business, the prisoner was continually loitering about his house, and annoying the family to such a degree that Mrs. Phillips was unable to go out without a friend to protect her. The prisoner commenced writing these letters about three months back, one of which he now produced. It was dated the 10th inst., and the concluding words of it were, "If I leave this place without a certain sum, I shall pop some one off as Rush did." The witness added, that the pri soner was usually under the influence of liquor ; but even in his sober moments, such was his revengeful disposition, he had every reason to believe he would put his threats into execution unless restrained by the law. About a week back he broke one of his (ilr. Phillips's) windows, and on being charged with it, did not deny it. Prisoner, in his defence, said that Mr. Phillips had promised to give him 201. to relieve his distresses, if he would stay away from the house. This promise Mr. Phillips never performed, and he admitted that in a moment of irritation he had written the letter produced, but assured his Worship that he never in tended to inflict any personal injury on his sister. Mr. HENRY said that the words contained in the letter would admit of no other construction than a determination on the part of the prisoner to commit some personal violence. He would, therefore, call upon him to find bail, himself in 1001., and two sureties in 50/. each, to .keep the peace for three months.' PICEPOCIEET3.— William *Russell and John Smith were charged on suspicion of having robbed some persons, unknown, of their watches, at different places of amusement. The prisoners, who are well known to the police, were observed on the s th inst. leaving the concert-room at Exeter Hall, in a manner to lead to a belief that they had committed some depredation. Thompson and another officer of the F division followed them into the Strand and took them into custody, upon which Smith was seen to drop a silver watch. Mr. Win. Scharht stated that he was at the concert on the evening in question, and shortly after he had obtained admission he missed his watch, which was the same now produced. At this stage of the proceedings John Eburne and Anne, his wife, who keep a lodging -house at Elder walk, Islington, and who had been sent from Clerken well Court, were placed at the bar with the other prisoners, charged with h av i ng received a gold watch and other property, knowing them t o h ave b een stolen. A policeman stated that he went to the prisoner Eburne's house, to make some inquiries respecting Smith. They at first. denied all knowledge of him, but subsequently acknowledged that he was their lodger. On asking whether Smith had any property in the h ouse, they said he had not, with the excep tion of a su i t o f clothes. On subsequent interroga tion they a d m i tted that they had two watches, which belonged to themselves. Witness then opened the drawers of the looking-glass, and took from thence a gold watch, which he now produced. Eburne, using some offensive language, declared this to be his property, but said he would not tell where he had got it. On fur ther search a considerable quantity of linen was dis covered, from which the initials had been removed. On making further allusion to the watch the female pri soner said, in the presence of her husband, that Smith had given it to .her, desiring that she would not give it to any person but himself. On being taken to Clerkenwell the male prisoner said he had picked the watch up (the shank was broken) in the City-road on Easter Monday ; he had kept it ever since, to see if any reward were offered fur it. Mr. HENRY directed the female prisoner to be discharged, and ordered the other three to be re manded. A respectably-dressed man, named Tyke, was charged with stealing a watch-guard chain, the property of Mr. Synires, a medical student. The prosecutor stated that last night he met the pri soner in a public-house near Euston-square, where they had some drink together. In the course of conversation the prisoner asked his advice relative to a disease he was suffering from, which he freely gave, and then the pri soner intimated that he should call upon him at his lodgings. The prosecutor said that just at the present moment his time was very much occupied, but that if he could do him any good he would willingly do so without any professional charge. The prisoner then said— " Well, the moment that I'm convalescent I intend to make a continental tour, and you shall go with inn free of expense." Mr. HENRY —You were, I suppose, to become his tra velling physician?—Something of that sort, replied the prosecutor.—(Laughter.) Mr. HENRY—WeII, then, come to the charge. All this nonsense is foreign to the subject. Prosecutor—Well, then, I borrowed half-a-crown of the prisoner, giving him as a security, he being a stran ger to me, my brequet chain. Soon after he got the chain the prisoner went out. and thinking that he had decamped, the prosecutor followed him, and meeting with a policeman, immediately gave him into custody. The prisoner said that there was no foundation for the charge. He simply went out to make use of the urinal, and never had an int,ntion of going away. Mr. HENRY—And was it possible that a constable knew so little of his duty as to take that charge as one of felony? The prisoner was quite justified in retaining the chain until his half-crown was refunded; and he therefore discharged him. WESTMINSTER. DISTRESSING CASE.—Mr. Taylor, an inspector of the B division, handed the following letter, which he had received, to the magistrate : "Dear Sir, —Knowing you to be of a humane dis position, I hope you will be kind enough to investi gate a sad case of distress which has made me take After a lengthened examination the prisoner was remanded for a week, Mr. Norton refusing to accept bail for his appearance on that day. George Poulton, the conductor of one of the Clap ham omnibuses, was placed at the felon's bar on a charge of stealing a sovereign. At the former examination, Mr. Norton, doubting whether a conviction for the felony would follow a commitment on that charge, dealt with the case summarily, and committed the prisoner for two months on a charge of miscondct as a servant. On making out, or rather when about to make out the prisoner's commitment, Mr. Gunn, the magistrate's clerk, discovered that the conviction was informal, inasmuch as the Act of Parliament under which it was made required that the complaint must be made to a magistrate within seven days, and this not having been done, the accused could not be sent to prison. Mr. Norton, upon being informed of this, determined, as the case was a very bad one, to send it before a jury, and, therefore, again remanded the prisoner. When placed at the bar, the prosecutor expressed a disinclieation to prosecute, saying that it would se riously inconvenience him, and expressed a hope that the punishment which the prisoner had already undergone would act as a warning to him for the future. Mr. NORTON expressed his surprise at the change in the prosecutor's opinion since the last examination. For his own part he said he had not the slightest doubt that the prisoner had been perfectly aware when he received the sovereign from Mr. Willis that it was a sovereign, and not a shilling, as he had represented; but if the prosecutor now declined to say that this was his opinion, there was an end to the case, and it would be useless to send the prisoner for trial. The prisoner, when leaving the dock, said he was very much obliged to the gentleman. Mr. NORTON remarked that he certainly had a right to be much obliged to the prosecutor, but that was more than the public should be. The prisoner was then discharged.

WORCESTER, APRIL 13.—The continuance of fine warm growing weather, and the consequent healthy appearance of the young growing crops, has had the effect of still further re ducing the value of wheat and other grain in this market. Wheat, therefore, must be quoted 6d to is per qu ar t er c h eaper to-day, 15s per bag being the very top price for best samples of white, and red selling at 14s per bag. In foreign little is dune in this market. Good malting barley was offered to day at 3s per bushel, and distilling samples at 2s 9d. Malt 7s 64 per bushel. Oats a dull sale, at 2s 6d to 3s 4d per bushel ; Irish oats selling at 2s to 2s 6d per bushel. Old English beans were worth 12s per bag, and new 10s to Ils per bag for English ; foreign beans 3s per bushel. Good white peal 3s 6d to 4s, and gray 3s to 3s 6d per bushel, with a slow sale. Spring vetches 4s to 5s per bushel. New rye 5s per bushel. At Stourbridge market on Friday there was a good show of wheat, and the finer descriptions of grain maintained the rates of last week ; but in the inferior descriptions a reduction of 6d to is per quarter had to be submitted to in order to effect sales. Seed barley in fair request at our last quotations, but other descriptions 6d per quarter lower. Oats a dull sale, at last week's rates. In beans no alteration, but the dmand limited. The trade In clover seed is become slow again. Stratford-on-Avon market on Friday was well supplied with all descriptions of grain. The business as regards wheat was dull, and there was a reduction on all samples of 6d per quarter. The farmers, however, were reluctant sellers at this reduction, and, consequently, business was limited. Barley firm, at last quotations. Oats a trifle lower than last week. Beans in slow request at former prices, the average price being 29s per quarter. At Kidderminster on Thursday there was a fatness in the trade. Millers would not buy, except at a 'reduction of Is per quarter on wheat, to which farmers were reluctant to submit, and hence a dull market was the consequence. Barley re mains unaltered in value. In other grain little or nothing doing.

Millers were willing to purchase at a reduction of 6d to Is per quarter, bet, farmers demurring, sales were limited to those impelled by their necessities to realise. Good samples of English wheat fetched from 4s 6d to 51 per bushel. • Barley averaged 253 per imperial quarter. English beans fully main. tained former quotations, and was the only grain in demand without a decline. Egyptian were Is per quarter lower than last week. Oats 16s to 18s. per quarter. At Rugby and Atherstone the business transacted was limited, and sales were only effected by necessitous holders. The price of meat has declined considerably, hut the butchers still exact an unfair profit from the labouring man. COLCII ESTER, APRIL 13.—The trade has been dull to-day, and the slight advance in wheat which took place a fortnight since has not been sustained. White wheat to-day was 40s to 435; rest, 37s to 40s. The best malting barley realised 255, and white peas 263 per quarter. On Friday, at Chelmsford, the quotations for wheat were lowered full Is per quarter, and even at this abatement only the best samples found ready purchasers. White wheat was 35s to 445; red, 349 to 38s; barley, 22s to 245; oats, 15s to 20s; white peas, 24s to 265; beans, 22s to 255. The ankets of Suffolk have also been declining this week. At Stowmarket, on Thursday, wheat was 13 per quarter cheaper. GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 11.—Our cattle market to-day was well supplied with all descriptions of cattle, both from East Lothian, Angusshire, and some lots from Ireland. Sales good, but no advance in price. Best ox beef 445, second 41s to 435, third 31s to 38s, cows, bulls, and infe rior' 30s to 37s per cwt, sinking offal. Our sheep market was well supplied with aged wethers, with dull sale. Prices a shade lower than last day. Best aged wethers 51d to 6d, se cond 5d to bid, ewes, 4d per lb, sinking offal. Fed calves dull, at from 64s to 675, coarse do 555 to 59s der ,cwt ; pigs the liberty of writing this note, Birdiell being from home, and considering it to be my duty to do so.

I have done as far.as I am able, but have not the means of doing more. "I remain, yours respectfully, "F. BIRCFIELL. " 21, Dartmo u th- row, Westminster, April 13." Mr. Taylor, to whom the letter was addressed, paid a visit to the house, and found the wretched condition of the poor family had been truly represented. The husband, George Boyd, a whitesmith by trade, for merly engaged in Portsmouth Dockyard, but dis charged owing to a reduction of the number of hands, bad been out of employment fur six months The wife is enciente and near her confinement, and there are four children of the respective ages of 16, 13, 9, and 2, the one nine years of age lying very ill. The family received 181bs. of bread per week from the workhouse, but had been compelled, by their neces sities, to part with their clothing, and almost every article they possessed during the last s;x months, until left in a miserably penniless condition. Mr. BURRELL immediately ordered a sovereign to be given to the poor creatures from the poor-box. LAMBETH. . _ William Anderson, a middle-aged man, was placed at the bar before the Hon. G. C. Norton on a charge of being concerned with three others, not in custody, of robbing Robert Catton of 501. From the evidence of the prosecutor, who described himself as a draper's assistant, it appeared that on Wednesday forenoon last he was walking along St. George's-road, when he was addressed by a respect able-looking young man, who asked him what the building opposite was ? He replied that it was a Catholic chapel ; and both were proceeding along, when a third person, who was about 20 yards in ad vance, dropped a purse. He (prosecutor) picked up the purse and restored it to its owner. The latter expressed his gratitude for this act of honesty and kindness, and invited the prosecutor and his newly formed acquaintance into a public-house to have some thing to drink. While at the public-house the parties were joined by a fourth party, and a game of skittles was introduced. The prosecutor was induced to bet with one of the party, and the result was that he had lost 81. 109. The man who dropped the purse offered to bet an even 50/. that the prosecutor did not knock down the nine skittle pins in nine throws. [ This was the tempting bait. The prosecutor offered to go to his lodgings and procure the 501. to make the match, and lest be should be induced to change his mind in the interim, one of the sharpers accompanied him. On his return the pro secutor placed forty sovereigns and a 10/. note into the hands of one of the party, and expressed his wil lingness to play the game ; but the challenger inter posed some objection, and proposed in the interim to play for a bottle of wine. This challenge was ac cepted, and while the game was going on the chal lenger disappeared, and the stakeholder said he had given him up the money. The other sharpers, amongs whom was the prisoner, also effected an exit, leaving the prosecutor in perfect bewilderment, and minus 581. 10s. Information of the robbery was given at Tower -street station-house, and on Friday evening the prisoner and another of his confederates were found enjoying a dish of beef-steaks at a pub lic-house On getting sight of the prosecutor the prisenor's companion effected his escape, but the pri soner himself was secured. refusing to sign the guarantee and pay down his 10/. The result was, that Mr. Blackwell promised to sign the document if it were again sent to him, and also to pay the 101. James Newell then received instruc tions again to take the guarantee to Mr. Blackwell, and on the following Monday, the 9th of August, he handed the document to his employer, signed " William Blackwell." On the same day, a son of that individual, William Johnson Blackwell, ee, called upon Mr. Tayl o r, an d pa id t h e prom i sed 101. Mr. Cooper eventually advised that the actions should be abandoned; the advice was concurred in by most of the shareholders, and the solicitor sent in his bill. The quota of each holder's expenses amounted to about 431. Mr. Blackwell, on being applied to for his share, denied that he knew anything at all about the matter,—asserted that he had signed no guarantee, and that he had paid no 10/. on account. Mr. Cooper, thus baffled, brought an action against Mr. Blackwell, at the last asizes, to recover from him the whole costs (the guarantee being joint and several), leaving him to his resource against his co guarantees. At the trial of the case, James Newell deposed that he had seen Blackwell sign the docu ment. The result was a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 1161., being the taxed amount of the costs incurred after the date of the guarantee. Yesterday, as we have before said, James Newell was brought before Mr. Rushton on a charge of having committed toe perjury in declaring that he had seen Black well sign the instrument. Mr. Snowball appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Pemberton for the pri soner. The charge was investigated at great length, the case occupying the court for above three hours. Mr. William Blackwell deposed that he had nothing U whatever to do with the retaining of Mr. Cooper ; that he never signed any guarantee; that the signa ture to the document produced, purporting to be his, was not his writing, and that his son paid the u 101. without his knowledge or consent. In his ' cross-examination, which was most minute, the witness could not recollect many circumstances of 34 importance; he hesitated to answer several questions; and he so equivocated in replying to others, that Mr. Rushton told him "he would have no shuffling." 1 % Mr. Taylor was called for the defence ; and, in 3s. a clear and straightf orwar d manner , d epose d 71i % to the statement of facts given in the corn ° 2% mencement of this paragraph. Mr. Rushton i% then asked Blackwell whether, if he had not is signed the guarantee, he cou ld tell who had signed it. His reply was, he believed that bis son had signed it, but certainly without his (witness's) autho rity. Mr. Snowball remarked that he could produce AN several respectable parties to depose that, in their is belief, the signature was not Mr. William Black well's. Mr Rushton—" Yes, but bow are we to get over the facts patent in this case ? I hold your principal witness, William Blackwell, to be totally unworthy of credit, either here or elsewhere. It is impossible for any one, at all experienced in the taking of evidence, to doubt that in the whole (W. course of his testimony, he was flinching from the truth that he hesitated to speak it. He has denied on his oath many things which have been proved on oath against him to-day. lam very sorry that that y oung man i s th ere . I hid no choice ; I was bound to put him there ; but, . in my opinion, he will go out of the box perfectly • untainted."—(Applause.) The prisoner—" Thank you, Sir." Mr. Rushton—" No, you are not at all obliged to me, but to the laws of your country."- - (Approbation, which was speedily suppressed, as Ice before.) The prisoner—" I can assure you, Sir, that my evidence was quite right." Here the young man left the dock, and the court, which had been much crowded, was speedily vacated by a large portion of the auditors.—Liverpool Mercury of Friday.
