CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN.) THE STRAND ROBBERY. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) On the return of the jury, Evan Jones was called and examined by Mr. CLARK SON—I am a constable of the M division. I know the prisoners Gardner and Cheruneau. Last year they lived together at 29, Martin-street, Blackrriars. I have heard them both speak of each other. The woman called Gardner her " old man." Cro s s-examines by Mr. PARNELL—They passed as man and wife. She was called Mrs. Gardner. John Saunders, examined by Mr. CLARKSON—I keep the York Hotel, Waterloo-bridge. road. I know the pri soner Gardner. About a month or five weeks before I was examined before the magistrate I saw him in front of the bar of the retail part of the house, and, to the best of my belief, Clinton was with him, but I cannot swear to him. Gardner had a dog wih him, and that attracted my attention to Gardner, who made the dog stand up in the corner on his hind legs. I talked with him about the dog, and have no doubt about Gardner being the man. Cross-examined by Mr. HUDDLESTONE -- There were not half-a-dozen persons present, but I did not take notice of the number. It was through talking to Gard ner about the dog that I recollected him. I never saw him in my life before. Re-examined—l saw him at Bow-street, and recog nised him at once. Anne Bayley, examined by Mr. BODKIN—I live at No. 2.5, Temple-street, Blackfriars-road. I know the pri soner Cheruneau, who used to live there. She had a little dog which did performances, such as standing on the hind legs, and tricks of that kind. Cross-examined by Mr. HUDDLESTONE—The police said they would lock me up unless I told the truth. I caked the prisoner Polly." She kept a servant of her own and used to dress smartly. Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk at Bow-street, examined by Mr. CLARKSON—I took the examinations of the pri soners on this charge. The caution prescribed by the statute was addressed to the prisoners by the magistrate at the close of the examination. The prisoner Badcock, nevertheless, said Clinton said to him when the robbery came off he would make him a present of something handsome, but he did not know anything about it, or when it was to come off. Susan Cesal—l live at Temple-street, St. George's. The woman Cheruneau lived opposite me. I knew the prisoner Gardner by sight, and have seen both of them in Temple street repeatedly. The 29th of September was the last time I saw them. I have resn a little dog at tho woman's window, but I have never heard her say anything ahent Cross. examined—l had no acquaintance with the woman, nor did I know what name sLe went by. Elias. Andrews—l live at 26, Temple-street, St. George's-road. I know Gardner and the woman Che runeau lived together. One morning I heard the woman say to Gardner " Look, Jack, the dots is bidding you good bye." She had a dog. Csess•exernined—l did not knew her to speck to. This closed the case for the prosecution. Mr. Paana submitted that no case had been made out against Shaw. Mr. BALLANTINE took similer objections on behalf of the Banchers. The Learned Jencr., aUr looking through his notes of the evidence, said the evidence against those two prisoners made out nothing, except it was that they were aequaiatancss of some of the others. Mr. CLARKSON suggested that there was evidence enough to connect them with tho others, which was sufficient to justify the ease going to the jury. Mr. BODKIN reminded his Lordship that a suspicious paper was found on Mrs. launcher, while Gardner, with a tall man, was watched to the house of Buncher, who came out with thaws. The Learned JUDGE was always unwilling to teke any question out of the hands of the jury, but it did appear to him that the evidence, though it made out a case of suspicion, fell far short of anything which could warrant a conviction. Without intending to offer any offence to the parties themselves, he could not avoid remarking that it was to be regretted that the evidence was so slender; but perhaps the jury would decide now whether they considered it strong enough to make it necessary for the prisoner's counsel to trouble them with an address. • The Jury intimated that they were ntisfitd, and had made up their minds with regard to all the prisoners but Badcock, and before decidiug upon him they wished to hear his Couniel. _ Mr. PARRY accordingly addressed them, and contended that although the eviAcnce made out a case of suspicion, it cs aA fey from euffi , ient to warrant a verdict c f guilty. Up till this moment Badcock's character 117,d loL•en un impeachable, and though ho might have reitzrated a boastful conversation his companion, Clinton, had in dulged in, no jury, calmly and dispassionately con sidering the evidence, could convict him upon the strength of so trivial an incident as that. Why was not Clinton pet into the witness-box? Clinton could—at least it was to be so as sumed—have implicated all the patties who were con cerned in the robbery, but he was not fothconaing in the capacity of a witness, and the only inference that could tie deduced from his absence was that the prose cution did not believe what he had state& Pray ing in aid, then, his previous good character, he implored the jury not to consign a yJung man like Bado - ick to the hc.rrors of tranFporta . ion upon the strength of such insignificant and inconclusive evidence as that which had been produced eglinA him in the course of this investigation. The Learned JupsiE, in summing up the case, re minded the jury that there could be no doubt that a very considerable robbery had been committed, and though the evidence made out a case of suspicion, there was no one piece of evidence that at all brought the robbery home to any of the prisoners. He was always reluctant to take cases of this nature out of the hands of the jury, and he therefore preferred simply giving his opinion of the evidence itself, and leaving it for the jury to say whether it conclusively satisfied them that the parties arraigned were guilty of the offence im puted to them. That course he had pursued on the pre sent occasion, and he understood the jury were satisfied as to all the prisoners but Badcock, and having heard his counsel, they had now to say whether the evidence against him was conclusive of his guilt. For his part he certainly thought it very slender—so slender that, viewed in every conceivable light, it established no more than a case of suspicion. The jury interrupted the Learned Judge, and said there was no necessity to continue the inquiry further, as they had made up their minds that the evidence was not sufficient to warrant a conviction against any of the prisoners. A verdict of Acquittal was accordinArly recorded, and the prisoners ware liberated. Clinton was then put forward to receive the ju3gment of the Court. The Learned JUDGE, in passing sentence, observed that he had looked through the depositions, and he could not help f-eling that no reliance ought to be placed on the statements ho had made implicating other parties. There could be no doubt, however, that a most extensive robbery had been committed through his instrumentality, and the interest of the public raluircd that he should be severely punished for it. Tho sentence cf the Court, therefore, was that he be transporte I for the term of twenty years. The prisoner, who remained unmoved t 3 the last, was th.o removed from the dGek. FRAN CE. Accounts from Brest announce the return into that port, on the 14th, of the frigate La Minerve, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Montagnies de la Roque, whence he had sailed 15 days previously. The frigate experienced a violent hurricane on the 6:b, which caused her such damage that it became necessary to use the pumps to keep her afloat. The Court of Appeal of Paris confirmed on Wed nesday the judgment of the police court which con demned the director of the Courrier Franfais to pay a fine of 1,500 f., for having published a leading article divided into four parts but having but one signature. GERMAN Y. The Swabian Mercury states that during the sitting of the Dresden Conferences the Frankfort Assembly of the Bund will neither adjourn nor suspend its sit tings, nor take any holidays, the secondary states, Bavaria and Wurtemberg, having determined to act together, and by means of the above-named body avert or try to avert from themselves the danger they imagine threatens them from the conferences. An experienced naval architect of New York is now constructing a yacht schooner, of about 150 tons, which will be present on the Thames during the Exhibition of next year. He has carte blanche from the gentlemen to whom she will belong; and is so confident of rendering her the model of perfection which they wish for, that he contracts to build her without charge, if she do not prove to be faster than any other which may be brought for ward in competition.—Liverpool Mercury of yesterday. MONEY MARKET—The premium on gold at Paris is about at par, which, at the English Mint price of 34 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 25.15; a n d t h e exchange at Paris on London at short being 24.90, it follows that gold is 1 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advises from Hamburgh the price of gold is 423* per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17e. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 . 4 it; and the ex change at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.4, it follows that gold is 0.30 per cent, dearer in Ham burgh than in London. The course of exch ange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1091 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23.40 per cent., it fol lows that the exchange is nominally 0 . 17 per cent. in favour of England, but, after making allowance for difference of interest and charges of transport, the present rate does not admit of the transit of gold either to or from the United States.

Two PERSONS KlLLED.—Shortly before five o'clock on Saturday evening last the passenger and horse carriage on the branch line between Ashchurch and Tewkesbury (which consists of a single line of rails), left the Ashchurch station, conveying besides the driver and a boy, Mrs. Rudge, wife of Mr. Rudge, tanner, of Tewkesbury, and her little son ; Sarah Price, a married woman, residing at Twyning ; and Thomas Berrow, a carpenter, Tewkesbury. The vehicle was followed at the usual interval by the goods engine which runs daily between Cheltenham and Tewkes bury, but owing to the horse in the omnibus falling, the progress of the latter was stayed, and the engine coming up, a collision, attended with fatal results to two of the passengers, took place. There was no tail light to the carriage to direct the attention of the engine driver, and to this omission, it is feared, the fatal catastrophe is attributable—za circumstance which, however, appears altogether to have escaped remark at the coroner's inquisition. The carriage, with three compartments, was dashed to pieces down the embankment, the roof undermost, and Borrow was taken up insensible from off the rails, the en gine having apparently passed over him. It was not until three-quarters of an hour after the acci dent occurred that it was ascertained lif . e had been sacrificed on the spot, and then, in removing the frag ments and parcels, the lifeless body of the poor woman, Sarah Price, was discovered beneath the heavy roof, which had crushed and suffocated her. The assistance of a surgeon was procured with little delay, but it availed not, for she had been killed instantaneously. Berrow expired during the night. The escape of Mrs. Itadge and her son seems altogether miraculous; they occupied the middle er best compartment, and Mrs. Price was seated in the back or third•division of the carriage. Neither of the former received any bodily injury. The driver was some distance away at the moment of the colli sion, and it is to be regretted that he did not ap prise the passsengers of their danger as soon as the engine appeared in sight. Barrow's death taking place in the town, the inquest on his body was held on Monday, at the Town-hall, Tewkesbury ; while that of the woman occurring in the county, a second in vestigation was held the same day at Aehehurch ; and in both instances the jury returned a verdict of accidental death, but at the same time most strongly expressing their conviction that the use of horse power and steam power on the branch line (being only a single line of rail) is dangerous to the public, and cannot be mede compatible with the public safety. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the Lond;n New Price Current, ac. 20.) SUGAR.—To-day there was a further fulling off in the demird kr West India Sugar for all purposes, and the gales am , ..)urtAl to the small qqsntity of only 103 hhds, &c.

A good demand prevails for common Gre..n, and previous rates are well supported, as only limited parcels are yet on offer. Of the better kinds there is a fair supply, the trade have operated with reluctance, and previous prices are supported with difficulty. For Scented and Pekoe Teas there are not many buyers, yet merchants appear unwilling to make any concession. SPlCES.—Arrivals of Pimento this week amount to 1,500 bags, and sales have been again upon a small scale, with selhies at the late reduction; prices rule at 5d to Sid according to quality. Ginger is not cheaper, more having been offered at public sale; there has, however, been little desire to operate; Jamaica held for 81 106 to 101; Barbadoes and African, 33s to 38s; East India export kind, 17s to 21s.

At the steward's ordinary, at the White Hart Aylesbury, after the aristocratic steeplechases yesterday week, the conversation turning on the feat of bringing a horse up into the dining•room in which the company were then assembled, which was once done by Lord Jocelyn and Mr. Ricardo during the meeting of tho Royal Hunt some few years ago, Mr. Charles Symonds, of sporting notoriety at Oxford, offered to bring a grey horse of his up stairs and lead him round the table. No sooner was this said than done, for off he started, fetched the animal from the stable, and very shortly announced his progress by a loud clattering on the old oak stair case. In a few minutes the horse was gazing on the as sembled company. His owner then led him over a flight of chairs, which he 'jumped beautifully. Nothing then ,would satisfy the company but that he must jump the dining-tables. Mr. Fowler. the proprietor of [the hotel, fearing lest some serious accident might occur, as the room is of great antiquity, having been built by the Earl of Rochester in the time of Charles 11., made strong objections; but he was overruled, and the horse was led over the tables, every thing standing. The champagne glasses rattled, the plates quiverel, the candlesticks shook, hut nothing was displaced ; back again he went, clearing everything at a bound; whereupon a most ardent sportsman, Mr. Man ning, of Wendover, volunteered to ride him barebacked the b a r s i tA dl n e j Or hra sa e d n d t le o . f The epresent, celebratedhe gentacco m plished,overanil, t without le man jock, Captain Ballo, a, next essayed, and manag ed to make a smash of one table with i ts contents. This was only a temporary check, for in the fats of a tremendous fire and the cheering of all present he achieved the feat gallantly. It wa s now ti me to desist and to g e t t h e horse down stairs; this was sooner said than d one, f or and was elid tnt l y afraid tv of the descent.
