THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDA - Y EVENING, JANUARY 18 1845. DIRECT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY'S OFFICES, 64, MOORGATE-STREET, London, Jan, 18, 1845. TO TILE EDITOR OF " THE SUN."I o Pal Sir,—The interest which you evince in Railwafmatters, induces me to take the earlieet opportunity afforded, of making publicly a brief commentary on, or rather correction of, a pa,sage in the leading article of the "Railway Times" of to-day, devoted to a dis cussion of tho merits of the Lines to York. This article, although written generally in a courteous spirit towards the Direct Northern Line, has the following sentence :—" The Line, it seems, Is to Join the Great Northern a mile and a half beyond the City of York, for the purpose of avoiding deten tion—a mighty convenience this to the said City of York, which is to be so greatly benefited by the Line!" lam aware that this remark has, in all probability, arisen front the language of the statement recently put forth by this Board of the " case and merits of the Line," which, on my attention being now brought to it, is not specific on this point, for, after stating that the Line will reduce the distance between London and York to 176; miles, and that collision with the traffic of the York and North Midland Railway is avoided by carrying the line by a bridge over that Rail way, it has certainly been omitted to state the fact, that the conve nience of York City has been duly provided for by the intended for mation of a New Station close to the existing turnpike-road at Mickle gate. This station, which has always been part of the plan, :is in f►ct a material feature in it, in order to avoid the detention and conffision which would otherwise occur at York, from the use of the present station there, with its other multifarious traffic. The object of the Junction with the Great North of England Railway, at the distance of a mile and a half from the City of York, is to carry on in the most direct manner the Northern and Scotch traffic. I have forwarded this correction to the editor of the " Railway Times," but as the same cannot appear is that paper until next week, lam desirous immediately to obviate the impression which the article in question must otherwise convey to the public, and, there fore, I shall be obliged by your inserting this in your paper of to-day. I am, Sir, your very obedient servant, WILLIAM AMSINCK, Secretary. THE WEATHER.-Strx OFFICE, JAN. 17. THERMOMETER, Lowest, 36 ; Highest, 40 ; Noon, 4 BAROMETER, 29.85.-WIND, S. NoTE.—The figures which follow the words "Lowest" and " Highest" denote the lowest and highest state of the Thermometer during the preceding twenty-foar hours. All the other observations are made at noon. Water freezes at 32 ; 55 on Thermometers is marked "Temperate," and on Barometers "Fair" is generally placed opposite to 30, and " Rain" at 29 ; but there is no certainty of dry weather when the mercury falls below 30. HIGH WATER AT LONDON-BRIDGE THIS DAY. Warning ... 35 minutes alter 9 i Evening ... 12 minutes after 10. bulent and overbearing demeanour affected by others, shall entail upon them the necessity of persevering in the active exercise of a precautionary policy. Another striking illustration of the severity with which the law—or what is called the law—presses upon the poor and the defenceless may be found in the following paragraph, which we quote from a Morning Contemporary :—" On Wednesday evening a police order for the removal of all the fruit-stalls in the Strand, and at the streets and courts leading thereto, was carried into effect by policemen specially appointed for the duty. No reason has been assigned for the order, which is, however, justified by the Police Act, and can be enforced at the caprice of any inspector or other policeman." Now what earthly occasion was there for the issuing of a peremptory mandate like this, whose immediate effect must almost necessarily be, to deprive several poor people—chiefly old women who have no other means left of earning a subsistence--of their sole remaining chance of keeping out of a workhouse, which it is well known, they look upon, and justly too, as the ne-plus-ultra of human wretchedness ? Is it that the fruit-stalls are a public nuisance ?—that they incommode respectable pedes trians who may happen to be passing to and fro from the City or the West- end ?—that their homely, un sightly loek is odious in the eyes of gentility, whose optics are apt at times to be exceedingly fastidious ? If the objection be that the stalls are a nuisance, how is it that the order for their removal has not been issued long since ? To our certain knowledge they have existed for years and years in the Strand, and no complaint that we know of has ever been made against them ; and such being the case, it seems an act of the most wanton tyranny to remove them. In deed, a sort of prescriptive right may be pleaded in justification of their continuance; but no, we are for getting ourselves; prescriptive right to which the law allows a certain validity when the interests, pecuniary or otherwise, of the respectable classes of society are concerned, is utterly without avail when those only of the poor are concerned. Many an individual in the upper or middle walks of life has been continued in the possession of a property of questionable origin by pleading this right in a court of justice; but it has had no effect in preventing the inclosure of common lands, on which from time immemorial the labourer had exercised the privilege of pasturing his pigs or his geese ! Prescriptive right has been allowed no influence in this case, but the strict letter of the law has been enforced, no matter how great the hardship and the injustice occasioned by it. But granting tha t the fruit-stalls in the Strand are a nuisance, why is the police crusade carried on against them exclusively? Are they more annoying to the public than the showy wares which are so ostentatiously protruded by the shop-proprietors at least two yards on each side of the passage in the Lowther and Burlington Arcades ? If it be deemed expedient by the police authorities to re move the obstruction in the one case, even-handed justice demands that it should be removed in the other. But, alas ! in the former instance the interests, such as they are, of squalid poverty only are concerned, and these may be injured with im punity; while in the latter, it is the privileges of rich, respectable tradesmen and the convenience of their customers that are concerned, and these, in accordance with the etiquette of police law, must be dealt with tenderly. It will never be well with society till these shameful distinctions between rich and poor are wholly and for ever removed. Daily we see proofs of the ruinous consequences attending them in the increasing demoralisation of the labouring classes, who, neglected and despised by those who should be their guardians, advisers, and benefs ctors, too often rush into evil courses out of a sheer fe;eling of despe ration. Wealth and respectability profess a well bred horror of the midnight conflagra=tions of SWING and the lawless excesses of REBECCA, but they never take into consideration how much o f this mischief may be owing to their own supercilious treatment of the poor. They sow the wind, and then think it a hard case if they reap the whirlwin d. But expe rience has at length produced its natural effect on the minds of the higher and midfile classes of society, who, are now fast awakening to the necessity of pursuing a different course of °cm duct to that which they have pursued for years pas=t towards the labouring masses of the population. Accounts from Madrid of the 10th inst. announce that ZUR8A...1.10, after many windings and narrow escapes, had. at last reached a place of .safety. He is now in Lisbon. In the Senate the cla ose relative to the QUEEN'S marriage was finally agreed to, after an ineffectual attempt by the Marquis of AI IRAFLORES to set aside that part of it which prohibithed her mar riage with any branch of the Don CARI A 35 family. The Three per Cents. closed, on the 1(3 th instant, at 30f for cull, and 34 at 60 days; and the Five Per Cents. at 23 9-16 for cash, and 23. 15-16 at 60 days ; the Coupons at 27 at 60 days; tlio Debt with out interest :at 6 15-16 at 60 days; and the Vales Non-consolidated at 9 5-32 at 60 days.. plaisance shown to an arrogant nation, which has the pretension of being at present the first in the world." The France, another Opposition journal, thus takes up the burden of the song, and joins in chorus with the revilers of England, and of the Minister for Fo reign Affairs : " The ordinary introduction of the speeches of' M. Guizot are known beforehand. They invariably begin with a Britannic Odyssey, in which the sweets of the entente cordiale are highly celebrated. M. Guizot has been faithful to his outre mer affections ' • we will even say that yesterday he surpassed himself. In the first outburst of his all-English heart, he defended, as she deserved, that good, that honest, that innocent England, so unjustly calumniated by the French Opposition party. England to have meddled with the affairs of Morocco otherwise than agreeably to Its ! England to have op posed her veto and her influence to a conclusion so honourable for us ! You cannot think it ; she is too good for us ; she has too much at heart to see our power recognised in the world ; she is too sincerely devoted to our interests and our supremacy ! This oratorical movement over, M. Guizot was only the shadow of him self. What will you have ? M. Guizot has no affections but for the English alliance ; he has no force or warmth but when he takes for his subject that good Old England, which has twice received him like a favoured child, as Ambassador and as Minister. He is a conquered gladia tor, carrying with him the weapon by which he has been struck, and which painfully affected him in the second part of the discussion, that which related to the execu tion of the treaty." The Committees of the Chamber of Deputies were occupied in examining the Budget and especially the expenses of the Finance Department. These ex penses were estimated at 623,402,185 f., being an in crease of 12,814,167 f. The question of the conver sion of the Five per Cents. was cursorily discussed ; the idea was generally admitted in principle, but a great majority in each bureau declared against its immediate adoption. In the course of the day M. GUIZOT called a meeting of the Committees, and stated that from accounts he had received he had greater hopes than ever of the successful conclusion of the negotiations respecting the right of search, that England was sincerely desirous of discovering some equally efficient means for putting an end to the slave-trade and with that understanding she was willing to modify the treaty. The Funds continued firm. The Three per Cents. closed at 85f. 20c., and the New Loan at 86f. 40c. THIS DAY'S NEWS RETURN OF HER MAJESTY FROM STOWE. Information having been received yesterday morning at the Euston-square terminus of the London and Bir mingham Railway, that it was her Majesty's intention to return from Stowe this afternoon, preparations were made this morning on a similar scale as at her departure, and the Directors and officers of the Company were in attendance to receive the royal party. Orders were issued at the royal mews to have her Majesty's carriages in waiting at the terminus. At half-past twelve o'clock a detachment of the 17th Light Dragoons (Lancers) arrived, and were accommodated by the officers of the company with a shelter under the extensive por tico. Three of the royal carriages, with outriders, ar rived at the terminus at a quarter before one o'clock. Immediately on the departure of the one o'clock down train, the platform, ante-room, and passage to the por tico, where the royal carriages were in waiting, were covered with crimson cloth. At this time, notwith standing the unfavourable state of the weather, a very great number of respectable persons had assembled to witness her Majesty's arrival. Pre cisely at half-past one o'clock her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by the Earl of Jersey Master of the Horse to the Queen; the Marchioness o r Douro, Lady in Waiting; Major-General Wemyss, Equerry in Waiting ; and Colonel Bouverie, Equerry in Waiting, arrived by special train from Wolverton, and were received by the Directors, who conducted the royal party to the carriages. Her Majesty then proceeded to Cambridge House, to visit the Grand Duchess of Meek lenburgh Strelitz, and from thence by railway to Slough, en route to Windsor. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS D+Y.) (Sittings in Banco.) The Court took the Crown paper to-day, and were occupied the whole morning with a case as to the liability of a parish to be rated, which possessed no :public in terest whatever. EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) HARRISON V. BILLING. This case was tried before Mr. Baron Rolfe on Tues day last. The action was brought upon a promissory note for 49/. 10s. made on the Ist of March, 1839, by the defendant, payable to the order of Potts, and endorsed by him to the plaintiff, a solicitor in Birmingham. It was pleaded by the defendant that the note was made for the joint accommodation of himself and Potts, that it was given to 66 plaintiff for the purpose of being dis counted, and that it was now held by him without con sideration, the promised advance upon it having never been made. The jury found a verdict for the defendant. Mr. M. D. Mil, on behalf of the plaintiff, now moved, on the ground of misdirection, for a rule calling on the defendant to show cause, why the verdict in his favour should not be set aside, and a new trial had. The argument turned on a point of special pleading. Rule refused. INSOLVENT COURT-(THIS DAY) IN RE THOMAS COWLEY JONES.-CLAIM TO PROVE UNDER THE STATUTE OP LIMITATIONS. This was a rule to show cause why a previous judg ment, pronounced in this Court by Mr. Commissioner Law, should not be set aside. The facts of the case were as follows :—The insolvent had been indebted to a person named Young, which debt became waived by the Statute of Limitations. After his insolvency, he wrote a letter, acknowledging the debt, but in which there was no direct premise to pay. Mr. Commissioner Law refused to allow the proof, and Mr. Nicholls, on behalf of Mr. Young, moved for the present rule. The CounT held that Mr. Commissioner Law was right in the view he took of the case, and discharged the rule, at the same time ordering that no re-assignment should be made to the insolvent without due notice being given to all Isis creditors. Mr. NORTON gave directions that the clerk of the works should be sent for, and acquainted with the cir cumstance. MARYLEBONE VESTRY. (THIS DAY.) EXPLANATION OF DR. TENFOLD. At a meeting of the Marylebone Vestry this day, the Rev. Dr. Penfold offered the following explanation on the subject of the accusation which had been made against him, of having takes a bank note, marked " Tithes," from the subscription plate of the Girls' School at the Church. He had, it appears, received various contributions by post, similarly marked, on previous occasions, and having learned the name and address of the person who had placed this money in the plate, he found it was the sane that had sent the former contributions by post. This person, who did not wish his name to be known, said that he intended the money for Doctor Penfold, and not for the charity. Doctor Penfold, in order that he might have the word of another to corroborate what he had said, had inducal this person to call on the Rev. Mr. Hamilton, and state his intention in giving the money.

FIRE IN MARYLEBONE.—This morning, between two and three o'clock, a fire broke out in the premises of Mr. Rusherbrook, a tailor, carrying on business at No. 19, High-street, ➢iarylebone, nearly opposite the entrance to the police-office. It appeared that, about two o'clock, a policeman, on duty in High-Street, observed a bright light, apparently in the back of the premises. Shortly afterwards smoke issued from the crevices in the door, when he gave an alarm, and the inmates had scarcely time to put on portions of clothing and proceed into the street, when the flames burst forth with considerable fury, and soon ascended to the first floor. In a few minutes five engines were on the spot, and a plentiful supply of water being at hand, the fire was got under shortly after three o'clock. The whole of the property in the lower part of the premises was destroyed, the upper portion of the house not being much damaged, except by the water poured in at the windows. We believe Mr. Rusherbrook is insured. It is not known how the fire originated.

There are not any arrivals of importance from the Colonies or elsewhere this morning. The periodical account of Promissory Notes in circu lation in Scotland and Ireland gives the following results as compared with the previous statement : The chartered, private, and joint banks of Scotland, according to the previous return, had a circulation of 3,486,3181.; now, 3,ls9,4soZ—decrease, 327,3681. The Bank of Ireland's return gives the present circulation at 3,917,800 L; last time, 3,9oo,27sL—increase, 17,525/. Th e private and joint-stock banks of Ireland, by the previous return, had out 2,945,0461.; at present, 3,o6s,7sll.—in crease, 120,705/. The weekly statement of the affairs of the Bank of England, as compared with its predecessor, shows an increase in the issues from 28,087,0551. to 28,163,130/., a decrease in the public deposits from 7,366,643/., to 4,128,966/. In the other deposits there has been an in crease from 8,037,3201. to 8,877,9051. In the seven days bills there is a slight increase. In the other Se curities a diminution from 11,426,996/. to 9,000,544/., and in the gold and silver coin there is a reduc tion of 101,857/. By the last return: the total Banking Department statistics stood at 34,199,407/.; at present, 31,774,0221.—decrea5e, 2,325,385/. This is the pay-day in the Consol Market ; and, although money has been in some request, we believe all has gone off satisfactorily. The immense amounts of capital that are now locked up in deposits on new lines of railway appear to produce but little effect on the rate of interest, so vast in the amount of floating capital in circulation at the present moment. The price of Consols for the Account is 100 k to 100 t and 100} to 1001 for the February Account. A full amount of business has been transacted in the New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents. at from 104-1 to 1001. Reduced Three per Cents. have advanced to 100/. The premium upon Exchequer-bills is rather lower than it was yes terday, as well as Bank Stock, which is at 211. An improvement has taken place in most of the Fo reign Funds to-day. The speculators in Spanish Stocks appear well satisfied with the budget of Senor Mon. The Five per Cents. hare been done at 27f ; the Three per Cents. at 38+ The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are at 63+ t, and the Five per Cents. at9Bii. The Russian Bonds have been done at 119, Buenos Ayres at 39i, Mexican at 341, and Portuguese Converted at 5911.

LONDON, SATURDAY, JANUARY 18, 1845, The opening of the New Steam Navy Dock at Portsmouth, on Saturday last, ought not to be re garded in the light of a mere ceremonial- in the ordinary routine of official business. The object of this great national work is to provide adequate ac commodation and facilities for the purposes of a na tional arm, which, from its comparatively recent addition to the body of our naval force, and the singular efficieney which has been already communi cated to it, is entitled to take rank, as the most im portant application of practical science to the art of war that has been recorded in our times. Improved gunnery in combination with steam propulsion marks, assuredly, the most remarkable era in the history of navigation. This combination supersedes an infinity of simple elements of material force by material force of far higher energy, and far less complexity of action. The elements we speak of were subject to the controlling power of many opposing or dis turbing causes, physical as well as mechanical. In action, a line-of-battle ship the best built, equipped, and sailed ; the beat manned and the best worked-- that ever swam, through adverse winds, heavy ground-swells, or calms, or violent currents, has been frequently disabled from bringing her broadside to bear, in spite of every manoeuvre which the nautical science of her officers could suggest, or the ready intrepedity of her crew was prepared to exe cute. For similar reasons, a ship of the first or second class might be seriously battered and knocked about, with considerable loss of human life among her company, by a vessel of far inferior armament, but having the advantages of the wind, or current, &c., in her favour. So, too, after many brilliant actions, the fruits of victory have been snatched from the hands of our victorious sailors, not so much by the superior sailing qualities of the enemy's vessels, as by the skilful tactics with which the commanders of these latter have improved the opportunities of escape afforded them by a light and favouring breeze, or other circumstances assisting their evolutions—but either not aiding, or absolutely thwarting our own. It is clear that the easy and certain motive power wherewith steam can now work any ship, of what ever tonnage, so as to bring her up on any desired board, and place her in any position which the scheme of the commander's operations may have assigned her (especially with the aid of that newly invented and admirable machine, the Foularton screw-propeller, which can always, and in incredibly quick time, get her head round), it is clear that, with the mastery of this power, a revolution in the whole art of sailing and fighting vessels of war must inevitably occur. A steamer gun brig, in a calm, or in a wind baffling to the course of her mighty anta gonist, might sail round, and down upon a formidable 80-gun ship, and work off again —with little or no comparative injury to herself (owing to the imprac ticability of promptly wearing experienced by the eighty), but, after knocking about the bows or the stern of the latter with almost perfect impunity. The new great steam-frigates will not be susceptible to the operation of such adverse and discouraging chances as these. Their powerful machinery will set them at defiance, and will annihilate, for the enemy, the mere sailing probabilities of escape. In action, the odds will be incalculably in favour of the heavier I armament, and more rapid and more certain evolu tions of the steam-frigate, whether for attack or for defence, as compared with the sailing man. of-war. We may instance, on this subject of armament, the effective service of her pivot-guns and the prodigious metal and calibre of the great guns of the Terrible, about to be launched from Woolwich Dockyard. The event of a contest between two war-steamers of equal armament, on this colossal scale—and assuming them to be equally well manned and officered—it is more difficult, and more fearful as well, to contemplate. One should imagine that mutual annihilation would be the probable catastrophe of such a conflict. The question here arises, is such an advance in our know ledge of the theory of destruction in maritime war fare so desirable, that it is expedient to reduce the results of that knowledge into immediate practical preparation? This question we may decline to dis cuss, either as casuists or as moralists. As practical men, heartily desiring the establishment of uni ‘ersal peace, but deeply aensible of the constant liability of nations to be involved in war we answer the question, without hesitation, in the affirmative. We hail the inception of the Steam Navy Dock, therefore, at Portsmouth, and the build ing and launching of such war steamer frigates as the Terrible, as satisfactory evidences that our Board of Admiralty recognises all its vast responsibi_ lay, in times like these, for the security and gran deur of the British empire, so far as these are liable, at any moment, to be attacked through our navy. We feel that the voice of huma nity, as well as the vindication of these grei t interests, demands that whenever we may be, unhap• pily, tizain embarked in a war, we should be ade quately prepared to abridge its term by the tremen dous efficiency of our armament. The best hopes for the permanency of peace are identified with the force and vigour of our preparations for war. The experi ence of the last thirty years has amply demonstrated that England, of all the great Powers of the civilised world, is most to be depended on for her sincerity, as well as her strength, in the noble capacity of the con servator of national peace. But this post she would not have occupied, had she not, under the late Go vernment, so irresistibly shown, by :her naval dsmonstratians, her unquestionable condition to meet the exigencies of any war. We are well pleased, therefore, to observe her taking the lead, among all the maritime Powers, in the march of pre paration for any such calamitous exigency as a war that must be sanguinary, we fear, whenever it shall come, but which it is well for mankind should not be protracted. In this matter of constructing and equipping, and providing accommodation for a war steamer navy, the first -prepared combatant will also be the best prepared. That advantage which priority of preparation gives will receive its crowning security, we trust, in the vigilant care of her MasesTr's Govern ment to continue making good that superiority of progress which they have so well commenced, so long as the unscrupulous jealousy of some States, or the tur• The dissuasions in the French Chamber of Peers, on the war with Morocco, have ende d entirely in favour of the Minister. It is admitted on all hands that GUIZOT,,, in his replies to the Prince of Moseowa and the Coll.llt DE LA REDORTE, was completely triumphant; and so forcibly did he repel unjust in sinuations, sia id show the wise policy of France in concluding t:1 ie treaty of peace, that neither Count MOLE, nor Theron DUPIN, nor one speaker of note had courage to cc a ne to the relief of the defeated grumblers, so convinced are the Opposition of the flee t, that their organs have Kiven up all hopes of success in the Peers, and trust to the Deputies, where, they say, he must put more m( ittle into his arguments, and w here he will have to con tend with keener weapons. They even have the m tunness to seek for consolation in the decay of his physical strength. " He ought to ma nage his stre n gth," says one of these journirls, " for he is evidently ` veering out, and we watch hial with an anxious and c ompassionate eye, remarking !;hat, when seated on his bench, he wears an over-excitod, flushed countenance,. exhibits a blackness round the eyes, and shows all the symptoms of irritation of tine larynx. Let him, th. st •efore, spare himself, as he has spared the Empero. c of MOROCCO. lie owes at least to himself the s: r me care and calming treatmer it that he has bestowed: on a barbarian." The vignur with which this e lie Minister repels the attacks of his opponents, sin v ws however that neither his body nor his mind is worn out : bat what we admire chic fly in his conduct is the Ct imperturbable spirit—that determina tion to rende e. justice to a 'great rival—tifiat utter contempt for raen who call him the " Minister of the stranger"—ar rd that generous devotion to truth which emboldens hi at to praise England even in the midst of her enem ties. "We are told," said he, " that we allowed ourselves to be guided by England ! Never was a more striking contradiction given to such a declar a.tion. What I expected to hear in this Chamber we a quite the opposite of what the Noble Peer has at Ivanced. What I expected was to hear justice and I 10mage rendered to England ft vr her con duct toward 'a us during this war with Morocco. England all awed that our complaints against that country were t just and our claims moderate--that, in fact, we ha , I a right to reparation. Tine English Cabinet offici illy notified to Morocco that she must not reckon of t any aid from her in case of a contest, and recomme +tided their agents to advise the EMPEROR to recognise Lie Government of France, und give the required sati' Faction. Thus, on the one side, the con duct of the French Government was full of in dependence sand firmness ; and on the other, that of England was full of moderation and justice. This condu :at of England is proved by the in structions i a ued from the Admiralty instruc tions worth, r of a great people and a noble ally." Queen CHRISTINA'S paper, while it admits the ability wit h which GUIZOT conducted .the debate, gives no cre ;to his statement respecting the Lords of the Admiira Ity, and as a proof of the - unconquerable hate which fl,ll imates the writer, seizes an occasion to find fault - vvi tl i England when her conduct towards France Was generous and magnanimoas. "But is it true?" he as ks, "4 that the conduct of England has been in strict con tfor mitt' with the words contained in the dispatch of L ord ABERDEEN :to the Lords Commis sioners of th 13 Admiralty, and which we published on the 13th of January.

Upon the two persons who offered themsel►es as sureties entering the witness-box, one of them, named William Whitecombe, demurred to being sworn upon the Testament. Mr. Commissioner REYNOLDS (to Mr. Whitecombe)— Why do you refuse being sworn upon the Bible i Do you believe in it ? Mr. Whitcombe— I believe in all the parts of it which are moral. I believe in those parts of it which denounce falsehood and bearing false testimony against my neighbour. The CHIEF CommissfoxEn—Then do you only believe in the Bible so far as those principles are concerned in the same manner as you would believe in a novel or any other profane work which embodies the same maxims ? Mr. Whitcombe-- Most certainly. I only believe in the truths themselves and not in the general book in which they are contained. Mr. Commissioiser PoLLocE—ls the Court to conclude that you deny the Divine origin of the New Testament, or that it is a work .of Divine revelation? Mr. Whitcombe —I do deny it. The CHIEF Call MISNOMER—YOH may retire Mr. Whitcombe. The Court does not require your presence any longer. Mr. Whitcombe and the other surety then left the Court, and the insolvent was taken back to the Queen's Bench Prison in default of bail. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) A DESPERATE BEGGAR.—John Ellis, a very powerful young man, and a female, who passes as his wife, were charged with begging. Police-constable, Igo. 28 of the C division, stated, that between six and seven o'clock last evening he saw the prisoners begging, in company . together, in Pall-mall. The male prisoner had his arm in a sling, and actually followed two gentlemen into one of the club-houses. Ile was then taken into custody, when he resisted, and it was with the greatest difficulty he was overpowered. In the cell he twice broke the handcuffs off his wrists. There was nothing whatever the matter with his arm. Win. Horaford, ono of the constables belonging to the Mendicity Society, stated that the prisoner was a noto rious begging impostor, and had been several times con victed. Mr. lllRnvricK sent him for another three months, and the female for one. CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.) A tall powerful-looking man, named Richard Johnson, was charged as follows : The fellow went into the eating-house of Mr. Clamin, i❑ the Hornsey-road, yesterday, and having regaled him self sumptuously on the best the house could furnish, drank seven pints of porter. Ho had no sooner finished the last pint than he called for tea, rashers, and eggs, and ordered them to be got ready by the time he had finished this meal ; the landlord, however, refused to serve him with more until the former reckoning was paid. The prisoner said he wanted change of a 5L note, but having no such thing, nor any other species of money on hi person, was given into custody. Mr. GREENWOOD discharged the gormandizer. LAMBETH.—(THIS DAY.) Upon the Hon, Mr. Norton taking his seat this morn ing on the bench, the Magistrate was informed that about half-past six o'clock last night a most determined at tempt was made by five prisoners, confined in one of the cells of the new Coart, to make their escape, and which was very nearly successfal. Last night the five prisoners were locked up in the cell, waiting for the arrival of the van. Cook, the gaolor, hearing an unusual noise, went to the cell in which the prisoners were confined, and soon ascertained that they had succeeded in removing the whole of the iron lattice work attached to the windows, and in a very few minutes more the whole of the prisoners must have got clear off.
