[The following appeared in our Third Edition of ' Saturday night :—] SPAIN. The following is the official account of the recep tion of Lord Howden:— " Lord Howden, the new English Ambassador at Madrid, was received with the usual ceremonies, in pri vate audience, by the Queen of Spain in the evening of the 3d, to precent his credentials. He was accompanied by Mr. Otway, Secretary of Legation, and Mr. Elliot, an attach 4, as also by one of his friends, Mr. Middleton. He addressed the Queen as follows: " • I have the honour to present to your Majesty the letter of my Sovereign nominating me her Envoy Extra ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Court of your Majesty. At any time, and on any occasion 'should have considered this nomination as a high honour and a great personal recompense; but at the present moment, after a suspension of diplomatic relations eq4ally lamented by the two Governments, and now happily terminated in a manner honourable to both, it is to me particularly ' agreeable to be charged to renew relations, the intimacy ' of which I confidently hope will never be changed. If I have arrived at a moment in which in common with all the loyal subjecrs of your Majesty, I lament the disap pointment of our earnest hope. I, on the other, am fillA with satisfaction at seeing that your Mal.sty has re covered your perfect health; and I offer to your Ma jesty the sincere wishes of my country that Providence will henceforth not refuse anything which may contri bute to augment your domestic felicity and to promote the welfare of your people. Your Majssty may confide in my sincere and persevering effirts to increase and consolidate the amicable sentiments which ought never to have been interrupted between the two countries, which in critical moments have had, and still have, so many lively sympathies and so many common interests. In the duties I am called on to fulfil, I have the conviction that I shall receive from the servants of your Majesty all kind of co-operation and support, that in me they will see not only the representative of an old and faithful ally, but a companion who had the happy privilege of following the banners of your Majesty in the field of battle, and who was a witness of the brilliant valour and the indomitable efforts displayed in defence of your Majesty by your noble and loyal army. Under such circumstances, your Majesty will easily believe that I cordially participate in the sentiments which my So vereign and her people entertain in favour of the estab lishment of the throne of your Majesty and the prosperity of Spain.' " "The Queen replied— " • I receive with great satisfaction the letters which accredited you to my gov ernment as Envoy Extraor dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of my august ally the Queen of Great Britain, and this act is doubly ac ceptable to me from the consideration that it completes and happily terminates the state of interruption of the diplomatic relations between the two countries, which , has prevailed—an interruption which we all have deplored with oval sincerity, and which fortu nately hat not in the least impaired the mutual esteem and the ancient connexions which fraternally united both nations. lam really gratified, my Lord, in seeing that you join in the feeling of regret tor the unhappy event to which you allude, which still engrosses my heart and those of my faithful subjects. It is for this alone we have to pray to Providence, and await with resignation the fulfilment of our wishes at some future period. As to the desire which animates you of contri buting to strengthen the bonds of amity which unite both nations, I have full confidence in the belief that your efforts will not be inefficacious, as I can assure you the sincere and friendly attention of my Government in cultivating sympathy and good understanding between the two courts will offer you ample means of success in so important and advantageous an object. It gives me also great pleasure, my . Lord, to see that so noble a charge has been entrusted by your Sovereign to a person like you, who aids to his personal merit the circum stance of having had the opportunity of witnessing the loyalty of my people, and the valour of my soldiers.' " Lord Howden was then introduced to the apartment of the King. to whom he delivered an autograph letter of her Britannic Majesty. • GERMANY. A letter from Frankfort of the sth says :—" To constitute the little Council,' for replacing the Ger manic Diet, Austria will require nine out of the seventeen votes in the Diet. At present it has only eight—those of Bavaria, Hanover, Wurtemburg, Denmark (for the Duchy of Holstein), Luxemburg, Electoral Hesse, and her own ; but she is now making the greatest efforts to obtain that of the Grand Duchy of Heise, which hesitates to grant it from fear of the hostility of Prussia." It is stated in a letter from Berlin of the 6th, in the,lndeperulance of Brussels, that there is no truth in the statement which has been made, to the effect that Prussia had warned Denmark, that if her troops should pass the Eider, she would send a corps d'armie to the assistance of the Schleswig- Holsteiners. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The , 'Coiner Zeitung publishes the following tele. graphic dispatches : " Berlin, Wednesday, August 7. :" The semi-official organs contradict the report of the Chevalier Bunsen's recall." - . " Rendsburg, Wednesday, August 7. " At 11 o'clock this m ,, rotng a lamentable explosion occurred here in one of the laboratories in which the fabrication of shrapnels is carried on. A portion of the laboratory was prjected into the air, and in the old town, which is the Military quarter, several houses were damaged. " At the time the train started the fire was already extinguished." "Ilamburzh. Thursday, August .8. " The post from here to Friedrichsia.it 'has been obliged to turn back. Tho reason has not transpired. The town, it is known, lies on the north bank of the Eider, and not far from the western coast. Nothing has reached here respecting any advance made by the Danes. 387 Danish prisoners have been brought into Altona from Rendsburg. The destruction of life caused by the explosion yesterday i❑ Rendsburg appears to be consideraule. The number of killed and severely wounded is stated at 200, and SO are already buried. Not One house in the old town has escaped injury." ITALY. The Risorgimento of Turin quotes a letter from Civita Vecchia of the 21st ult., stating that the Spanish Ambassador at Rome had made serious re presentations to the Ecclesiastical Court, for having so suddenly conceded the dispensations required for the marriage of Count Montemolin with his cousin ; but that Cardinal Orioli answered that the affair was not at all submitted to the court, but was settled in a private interview between his Holiness and the Countess of Spaur. The same letter states that the Chapter of the Order of Dominican Friars having assembled to elect their general, his Holiness unex• pectedly stopped the proceedings, and by his own au thority, contrary to the statutes of the order, named Father Jeandel, a French Dominican, now living in France. It is believed his Holiness intends remodel ling the constitutions of the religious orders, and to do away with the system of election, as being too de mocratic. The Opinione of Turin, of the stb, states that the Austrians are forming a new camp at Somma, and that recruiting is actively going on in Switzerland for Rome and Naples. THE MOORS. As the 12th of August approaches, so increase the bustle and excitement of preparation for the more on that day—a day which begins the annual recreation of so many toil-worn men of state and business. For the last week every variety of sporting appointments, from the stout Highland garron, to the active, panting sellers and pointers, have been hurrying 011 to shooting quarters. As usual at this season, Mr. Snowie's shop is the hourly resort of crowds of anxious sportsmen, eager to give and hear news. We have a number of notes from gentlemen and gamekeepers, not written expressly to give infor mation of the coming season, but simply appended to matters of business. One of our most celebrated sports men stated, in the end of July, that there are two distinct broeds of grouse this season. He raised a young bird so far grown that it had a black tail, which was remarkable so early. He also put up birds that could scarcely fiy, the latter evidently the, produce of a second hatching ; the first hav ing been destroyed by the s no w i n M a y. F o r a . cons id erable circuit about I nverness t h e y oung birds will generally be on the 12th in two sets of broods, one set strong as old birds, the other cheepers. A bill-watcher, whose days and ram are spent a mong grouse, told us in his own ma nner , t h at "be VMS thinking it was to be a good saason, for there was more birds ho had seen since ten years ago. He had one grouse nest with seventeen eggs, a nd he Was seeing the covey with just as many youn g b irds A. correspondent in Sutherland writes—" The young grouse, although far from being numerous, are expected to be strong and plump to a degree beyond ordinary." Next week we hope to be able to record the contents of many good bags, and to publish a long li s t of sporting residences. There has already been some good shots in the deer forests. We have seen a stag's head with 13 antlers, shot by Mr. Kerrison at Ineerinate, and a large wide spread stag's head from Loch•Carron, one of two stags shot by Sir Arthur Chichester. A stag was shot last week at Duarobin, by Lord Ellesmere, which weighed 23 stone. On Saturday, 27th ult., Mr. Frank Mackenzie brought down a stag at Applecross.—lnverness Courier. HORNCASTLE (LINCOMRSHIRB) 11011,311 FAIN.- This, confessedly the largest horse fair in England, may be said to have commenced on the 9th, although set down to begin on the 10th, and to finish on the 21st of August.

TILE RECEIVING-SHIP OPT THE TOWER. —The old Perseus, which has been stationed for the last thirty two years off the Tower, and used as a receiving-ship for boys and men entered for the naval service, has been towed to Deptford to be broken up, and has been re placed by the old donkey-frigate Crocodile. Is is calcu lated that above 100,000 men and boys have passed through the Perseus. Captain Ellice, R.N., Comptroller-General of the Coast Guard, bas returned to London, from his tour of inspec tion of the west coast of England. REPAIRING USELESS SHIPs.—We regret to hear that so useless and expensive a ship as the 8-gun sloop Fer ret is ordered to be repaired; she is fit for nothing but to be broken up. Her cia-s has been superseded by steamers. It will cost 5 000/. to repair, and to expend this sum on her is like throwing good money a Nay. For as much more the Admiralty, going economically to work, could get a small steamer that would be worth a doz,n rotten, uneasy working brigs like the Ferret. SWINGING SHIPS AT DEVON PORT.--The newly-ap pointed Queen's Harbour Master, Mr. Thompson, is or dered to perform the duty of adjusting the compasses of her Majesty's ships at Devonport, aad with this view has been put into official communication with Captain Johnson, of the compass department, at the Admiralty.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM THE COMMANDEE•IN+ CHIEF OF INDIA TO THE GOVERNOR-GENERAL Of ' INDIA. PRICES OF SHARES Head Quarters, Camp, Peshawar, Feb. 16, 1850. bay Lord,—ln furtherance of your Lorship's order; to report on the frontier defence, especially on that o f the Peshawur district, I was proceeding to Kohat, as ot an ordinary march, when the Deputy-Commissioner, Lieut.-Colonel Lawrence, informed me that a dstac'a ment of sappers and miners, repairing the road between Kohat and the Pass, had been unexpectedly attacked fey a body of the Afredi tribe, aided by others of the Khyber and Durikzye tribes, to the number of from 700 to 1,200 men; they massacred nearly all the sappers and miners; no mercy was shown by the assailants, who came from the neighbouring villages, occupying the fast nesses of the long and perilous defile through the Afredi range of mountain!. 2. By this unexpected attack, unprovoked by any mis conduct on the part of the detachment, the civil station of Kohat was cut off; and it became necessary to rein force that station, and to punish the insurgent tribes. I therefore ordered the force named in the note,* accom panied by my own escort, under the command of Bri gadier Sir Colin Campbell, to march for those purposes on the 9th of February. 3. On the 10th we entered the pass, and I was met by some deputies, from the village of Akhor, who endea voured to exculpate themselves; but Lieut.-Colonel Lawrence having assured me that his information was correct as to what villages had formed the force that massacred our detachment, and that this was one of those •illages, my answer to the deputies was, that their people must give themselves and their arms up to me; that they have received money from the British Government for protecting this % road, and that instead of affording that protection they had murdered a detachment of our soldiers. I gave them an hour to consider what answer they would give to my summons to surrender themselves. At the end of the hour they returned, and said their companions would not listen to them. I therefore ordered Sir C. Campbell and Lieut.-Colonel Lawrence to crown the heights round the village, but not to fire unless fired upon. The moment our troops advanced the Afredi matcblockmen opened their fire, which was instantly re turned, our troops driving the enemy beforo them in every direction. 4. The civil authorities then burnt the village, and the column advanced five miles further to its encamping ground at Gurgoon Khali, which the enemy defended; but it was taken; and we pitched our camp, under the fire of matchlocks from the overhanging precipices. 5. On the 11th we continued our march through the defile, constantly skirmishing with the enemy, and en camped at Bosty Khali, about five miles from our last ground, and immediately under the Pass of Kohat, which was in possession of some irregular troops sent by the Assistamt-Commissioner, Lieutenant Pollock, for that purpose. 6. This evening I sent the Ist Punjaub Cavalry, under Captain Daly, to Kohat, and myself examined the top of the pass. The whole of that night the enemy kept continually firing upon our pickets. 7. On the 12th, accompanied by my staff, I rode to Kohat, and examined its defences and position, &c., &c., returning to camp about four .at. I ordered Brigadeir Sir C. Campbell and Lieut.-Colonel Lawrence to make preparations for our return to Peshawur the next morn ing, which they accordingly did, ordering the Ist Pun jaub Infantry to hold the high ground till our roar guard was out of sight, when this excellent regiment retired to Kohat, which was thus reinforced by two corps, one of cavalry and one of infantry. 8. In one march the column swept through the whole defile, skirmishing with the enemy all the way, and reaching Muthuee between three and four o'clock, seven teen miles from the morning's ground; and on the 14th we returned to Peshawur.

(Before Mr. Commissioner GOULEMAN.) IN RE HOGG AND lIOGG. The bankrupt; were auctioneers, at Landport, near Portsmouth. They had also been lessees of two theatres at that place. This was the certificate meeting. There was no opposition. Their debts were about 3,0001.; assets nearly lOs. in the pound. His HONOUR, observing that their cash-book had not been correctly kept, suspended the certificates for six months from the date of the bankruptcy, with protec• tion in the mean time; when granted, the certificates to be of the second class. IN RE NASH AND. NEALEo-THE REIGATE AND DORK ING BANK. Application was made in this case on behalf of Mr. Killick, one of the assignees, and chairman of the Dork ing board of guardians, to be allowed to transfer his proof for 7001. odd, made on behalf of the union, from the joint estate to the separate estate of Na,th. After the facts had been partially gone into, his HONOUR directed the case to stand over. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Aug. 10. MR. SERGEANT MANNING AND THE INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. Shortly before the rising of the Court Mr. 'lorry made an application to Mr. Commissioner Law for the discharge of a person named John Brown, who had been committed on Thursday by Mr. Sergeant Man ning, the Judge of the Whitechapel County Court, to Whitecross-street Prison, notwithstanding his final order. This is the second case of the kind in which the two Courts have come into collision. Mr. Commissioner Law decided a few months back, in the case of a person named Symonds, that the protection of the Insolvent Debtors' Court extended to relieve insolvents from orders of County Courts where no order of commitment had been made, and on that ground discharged Symons from Whitecross-street Prison. Since then Mr. Sergeant Man ning has enforced his opinion in opposition by a commit ment. How long this state of things will continue it is im possible to say, but if persisted in some serious conse quences to the administration of justice are likely to arise. It appeared that Brown had been summoned fur a doc tor's bill to the Whitechapel County Court, and ordered to pay es. a month,which instalments he paid from January to May last, when he fili-d his petition under the Protection Act, and obtained his final order on the 17th of June last. Two days before he obtained his final order he was served with a judgment summons for not paying the instalments. On the 27th of June, according to his affidavit, he attended the County Court and pro duced his final order, when ha was told by Mr. Sergeant Manning that it was of no avail, and that he must con tinue to pay the instalments. He refused to make such payments, and on Thursday last was committed to prison by the warrant of Mr. Sergeant Manning. The balance of the debt was only 11. Bs. 6d. The officer of Whitecross-street Prison produced the warrant, and stated that the defendant was still in con finement. _ . 9. The civil authorities burnt six of the offending villages known to Colonel Lawrence as having lioen con cerned in the massacre of our detachment. 10. The whole of these operations were ably con ducted by Brigadier Sir C. Campbell and Lieut.-Colonel Lawrence, commanding the military and civil forces re spectively. 11. Lieut.-Colonel Lawrence will of course make his report to the Punjaub Government; and I have the honour to enclose that of Sir Colin Campbell, together • with a copy of my own general order, foi- your Lord ship's inforMation. 12. It may be as well to remark that all the villages that were destroyed had bean previously abandoned ; nothing but fighting men remained in them. 13. The conduct of the troops of all ranks was ex cellent. 14. We have necessarily boat some bravo soldiers in these operations. Twenty men have been slain, and seventy-four wounded; among the former I have to la- 1 ment the gallant young Sitwell, and four brave comrades who fell at his side—viz., havildar Gholab Dirchet, naick Madho Sing, and sepoys Meerwan Opadeea and Deen bund Pandy, of the 31st Native Infantry. The havildar and two sepoys, named Sobha RIM and Buctour Ram, attempted to carry off their wounded leader. 15. The havildar was killed, the two sepoys despe rately wounded; they were rescued by their comrades afterwards, and are now in hospital. The naick Hoolas Khan went four times up the hill in the lace of the enemy, accompanied by Buctour Khan, and brought away a wounded man each time. Thase were great deeds of valour and self-devotion done by soldiers of humble rank, sad I claim for these four men, Hoolas Khan, Sobha Ram, Buctour Ram, and Buctour Khan, the " order of merit" at your Lordship's hands. Alas! young. Sitwell is beyond human reward. He fell, rushing against the enemy, and calling o❑ his men to follow, and they obeyed him. When he fell, he tried in vain to make them leave him to an unsparing fo', and save their lives; they obeyed not then, but died with him I Horoic was the young spirit that inspired such deeds ! ' Tne jemadar who commanded the party when Sitwell fell is said to have conducted himself with admirable jnigment, coolness, and courage, and the enemy were defeated in this desperate combat. There was noble leading and intrepid following! * • • Mr. Commissioner LAW closely inspected the warrant and said it recited that the defendant had not appeared. Mr. Honny referred to his affidavit, in which be dii tinctly stated that he had app,ared. Mr. Commissioner LAW said there was a great dis crepancy between the judge and the defendant. The warrant of the judge recited that he did not attend at all, whilst the oath of the other declared that he did attend. It appeared from a discussion which took place be. tween Mr. lorry and the Commissioner that the defen dant had no attorney in his present application, but that be (Mr. lorry) had drawn the affidavit from a "case" submitted to him. He (Mr. lorry) cited the case of Symons, and hoped the Court would grant a warrant of discharge, which would supersede the war rant of commitment of Mr. Sergeant Mantling. Mr. Commissioner LAW carefully went over the case, and referred to the application in the mstter of Symons. It would seem that the judge had ordered the commit ment because the party was of ability to pay, and the clerk who drew the warrant had :et forth that the de fendant had not appeared. His Honour intimated that the warrant of discharge would h.sue when he had a copy of the warrant cf commitment and a copy of his order in the former case. The defendant was, therefore, discharged, subject to the warrants being lodged, and thus there is another judicial collision► between Mr. Sergeant Manning and the Insolvent Debtors' Court. I have, &e., C. J. NAPIER, General Commander-in• Chief. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING-, AUGUST 12, 1850. having' remainA in England at the requnt of the (12- fentla,t. Mr. Boviil and Mr. Barnard were counsel for tha plaintiff; Mr. E. chi:QC; Q.C., and Mr. Lush, f)r the defendant. The defendant in this action was the chairman of 'the North Wales Railway Company. The plaintiff had been its secretary, and, as is welt known to the uublic, the affairs of that company became the subject of investiga tion by a Co:nrnittee of the House of Llrds in the result of which both the plaintiff and defendant were committed to the custody of the Usher of the Black Rod for con tempt of the House in not producing before the Com mittee the books and proceedings of the company, which had been required by the House. The plaintiff alleged that he had been detained in England to assist the direc tors in the inquiry before the House of Lords, and that a contract was made by the defendant that ho should be paid a year's salary, 3001., and another year's salary as a bonus, and a further sum for the period he should be de tained, if he performed the services they required of him in winding up the affairs of the company. In order to establish the claim various minutes and proceedings of the company were read, and also resolu tions that were pasied when defendant was chairman, and . . from which it was contended that the contract had been established. Mr. Eales, one of the directors of the company, was called to prove that the defendant had signed the a4rt e- meat that was relied upon. He likewise stated that the defendant had lent large sums of the funds of the com pany to various persons.-45,0001. to the South-Western Railway Company, and other large sums to friends of his own. The plaintiff, he said, he considered did per form the services that were required of him in connexion with the winding up of the company, and he believed at the present time he was " designated" as the secretary to some foreign mining company. The wituecs likewise said that he saw a cheque for 600/. in the possession of the defendant, which he understood was intended to settle the claim of the plaintiff: In cross-examination by Mr. JAMES, the witness said that he was a director of the company for four years. He had not borrowed any money from the funds of the c,;tu pally himself, but his brother-in-law had, and the loan was upon his • (witness's) recommendation. Jr was 3,0001., and he would not swear that he did not himself receive the identical cheques. He had the money, and used it, certainly, and his brother-in-law had none of it. He did not use it in his business, and he declined to say to what purpose he applied it. The loan had since bean repaid with interest, as had also the money burrowed by the South-Western Railway. He would nut swear that the loan to his brother-in-law was repaid before the in quiry into the affairs of the company commenced in the House of Lords. Some other evidence was adduced from which it ap peared that there had been other money transactions between the plaintiff and defendant, and that the former had received a sum of 1701., which it was contended was to be considered a part payment of his claim upon Mr. Chadwick. Mr. JAMES took several objections to the form of the contract, and it was arranged, after a good deal of dis cussion, that certain points should be reserved for the consideration of the Court. The Learned COUNSEL then addressed the jury. He said that although he could not attempt to justify all the conduct of the defendant in dealing as he had with the funds of the company, rt he did think that, taking into consideration the painful position of the plaintiff, he was the last person who ought to have instructed his coun sel to take up all these painful proceedings egains the defendant, particularly when they had nothing to do with the case. Mr. BovILL said the matters in question were already public (slough, and all the facts had been printed in tae minutes of the proceedings of the House of Lords. Mr. JAMES said he was aware of that, but everybody did not have access to those minutes, and he repeated that it was an ungenerous proceeding on the part of the plaintiff to have given such instructions to his counsel, and he could not help observing, at the same time, that considering the conduct of Mr. Eales as connected with this company, it was not a very kind act on his ptrt to come forward and give such evidence against his co director as he had on the present occasion. The Le trned Counsel then made some pointed observations upon the position of gentlemen who, like the defendant and a still greater railway monarch, he said, when they mere di - posed or had abdicated, were calumniated and attacked by those who when they were in power treated them as idols and little pieties in the peat temple of Mammon. The CHIEF BARON briefly summed up, and the jury after a short deliberation returned a verdict for the plain tiff—Damages 430/. OXFORD CI RC U IT.— Gloucester, Aug. 10. NISI PRlUS.—(Before Lord Chief . Justice CAMPBELL.) EARL FITZHARDINGE V. LONG. This was a special jury cause. Mr. Keating, Q C., and Mr. Gray, for the plaintiff; and Mr. Whately, Q C., fir the defendant. It was an action by a landlord against a tenant to re cover half-a-year's rent. The defendant resisted the action on some grounds of his own, which did not trans pire, but which were perfectly untenable, judging from the remarks of his coun...el, who gave up the case on Earl Fitzhardinge consenting t,) give the tenant twelve months' time to pay. The pleas on the record were, besides the general issue, that the defendant hail re ceived notice to quit before the rent was due, and that he had also been evicted from the farm before the rent was due. CORWELL V. WULLS ♦ND OTHERS. Mr. Keating, Q.C., and Mr. Skinner appeared for the plaintiff in this case; and Mr. Alexander, Q.C., and Mr. Gray for the defendants. This ease occupied some hours, but the point at issue lay in a nutshell. It was :a question of manori r 1 right— whether the plaintiff, as lord of the manor of Stoke 01- chard, had a right to the waste and commonable land lying on the side of the road at Stoke Orchard green, in the parish of Bishops Clune. The value of the lend was inconsiderable; it was the question of right which was in dispute. The plaintiff, Mr. Roger Coxwell, resides at Dowdeswell, in this county, and was lord of the manor of Stoke Orchard. The defendant, Mr. Hulls, is the attorney of this city, and the other defendants are par ties who joined him in the act of trespass in respect of which the action was brought. According to the plain tiff's case it appeared that at the first court leet held by him as lord of the manor, on succeeding to the lordship from his brother, a presentation was made that a com mon pound was required, and he accordingly provided the timber for the purpose, and had the pound erected. This was in 1844, and the pound so remained until April, 1849, when the wayward of the manor received a notice from Mr. Hulls, calling upon him to remove the pound as a nuisance. No notice was taken of this requisition, and on the 29th of May following the defendants pulled down the pound, and placed the timber on the highway. The defendants claimed the land ,as being betneen their freehold and the pathway, but the lord of the manor claimed it as waste of the manor. It appeared from the plans put in that there were several cottages and gar dens lying by the side of this slip of land, which divided them from the road, and hence the owners of these cot tages and gardens, named Hatch and Hancock, claimed the land in question as part of their freehold. It was alleged by the plaintiff that in cases where inclosures had bees made from this waste by cottsgers living on its mar gin they had paid an acknowle iguient to the lord. The case terminated in a verdict for the plaintiff, thus estab lishing the right of the lord of the manor to the land as waste. nal En passing centence; and if in the present instance the pr;soner imagined that in being transported he w ,- ,;111 beeoml a new man, and live a comparatively easy life in a foreign laud, he could assure him be was much mistaken. BURGLARY AND Assaml.. Samuel Trash, 16, and Samuel Osborne, 17, were indicted for fianiously enter ing the dwelling-houso of Joseph Edgar, and stealing therefrom a chisel and a dung-fork. Mr. COLE, who conducted the prosecution, stated that Mr. Edgar (who was since dead) reaided at Crewkerne, in this county. About half-past five on the evening of the 12th of May Mr. Edgar was sitting with his wife in the kitchen of his house, and hearing a noise in a room overhead, he went to see how it had been occasioned. Shortly after Mrs. Edgar heard a heavy fall, and, on going up stairs, she met the prisoner Trash, who had a dung-fork in his hand, with which he knocked her down, and made his escape. Mr. Edgar was found in the bed room lying on the floor covered with blood, and with a chisel lying by his side. The prosecutrix was called to depose to these facts, but it appeared from her statement that no property was actually taken from the premises. The Learned JUDGE thereupon said he hardly thought the charge laid in the indictment could be sustained, be cause it was essential to make out the crime of house breaking and stealing, that some property should either be removed from the premises, or so removed as to ren• der it apparent that there was an intention to commit a felony. In the present instance it was most probable that the chisel had been used for the purpose of breaking open boxes and drawers, and that finding himself dis turbed Trash ust d the dungforle for the purpose of re si*tance, and not with any intention of ttealiug it. The jury adopted this view, and Acquitted the prisoners. Another indictment, charging them with assaulting Edgar, with intent to murder him, and to do him some grievous bodily harm, was then proceeded. Trash was found Guilty, and sentenced to be transported fur 20 years. Osborne was acquitted. RICHMOND PETTY SESSIOAS, August 10. SINGULAR CHARGE OF BIGAMY.—Mary Fitzgerald, was charged before Mr. Penrhyn, and a full bench of magistrat , s, with having, on the 17th of JAnuary, 1831, at St. George's, Bloomsbury, feloniously intermarried with one William Beckfor , l, her former husband, Samuel Fitzgerald. being still alive. The prisoner was married to a person named Fitz gerald, in August, 1824, and in 1831 she married Beckford. According to her statement it would appear that she married the latter person—by whom she had five children—believing that Fitzgerald was dead, he having gone out in a condemned regiment. It turned our, however, that he was not dead, end about ten years after the marrilge in question he came to the house of the second husband, and "c!aitned his wife." The prisoner, who said that she was not aware Fitz gerald was alive when she marrici Beckford, was com mitted fur trial. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CITY POLICE COMMITTEE. REFUSING TO ADMIT THE POLlCE.—lllichael Myers, the keeper of a beer-shop in B)reas passage, Cutler street, was summoned for refusing to admit the police on Sunday morning. Finie, 41, stated that at ten minutes to twelve on Sunday morning be saw six persons leave the house. He knocked, the door was opened, but slammed back again when it was seen that he was an officer, fie stood at the dour more than a quarter of an hour, and a fe malis and two men looked out of an upper window. In Vie early part of tha morning he had seen between twenty and thirty persons enter the home. Defendant said he was i❑ the habit of keeping open till eleven o'clock on Sunday morning to sell coffee, but certainly not beer, and he did nut do so on the present occasion. Mr. Alderman CARDEN inflicted a find of 40s. and costs. GUILDHALL. THE RIVAL GAS COMPANIES —ll 7 i lliam Gray, one of the workmen in the employ of the Great Central Gas Company, appeared in answer to an information charg ing him with wilfully and maliciously cutting and other wise injuring a pipe belonging to the City Chartered Gas Company; which was used f.a- supplying the public lamps with gas. Frederick Billows, Assistant-Inspector to the Char tered Gas Company, said that he saw the pipe at Fins bury-place, and at 7 o'clock on Thursday he saw it quite sound. It was encrusted with rust, but there were no holes in it to allow an escape of gas. SL eing the men at work in the trench were bringtng the new main in such a direction as would necessarily disturb the pipes belonging to the City Chartered Gas Company, he called Gray, the f fireman of the works, and cautioned him to avoid the pipes, or otherwisl he would effect a permit rent injury to the pipes belonging to the City. Chartered Company if he carried the new main so close to the old one. Gray said, " Very well, I will go under it." In stead of lie, ping to that promis.', the next morning witness found he had cut the pipe, apparentiy. with a chisel, and thereby stopped the supply to the lamp that the pipe served. On saying to Gray that he had cut the pipe, he replied "Yes, a gentleman came here and told me to cut it." He atterwards said he was instructed by Mr. Bushy to cut the pipe. On being cross-examined by Mr. Under-Sheriff Wire (who was retained by the the Great Central Gas Company to defend the prisoner), he (witness) stated that the pipe was quite sound when he first saw it, and that the holes in it when produced were occasioned by the removal of the rust. John Henry Brock Billows stated that he had from 20 to 30 himiiar charges against the new company, all of which might have bei n avoided had the parties directing the works been disposed. lie called the at tention of the Commissioners of Sewers to the mode in which the company were conducting tbeir works. and he stopped theta, and would not allow them to go on. That being the case for the prosecution, Mr. Wire rose to reply. Ho contended that it was absolutely im possible fur a new company, in opening the roads, to feel their wa7 amidst the multiplicity of pipes in the public thoroughfares of the city of London, so as to re frain from doing some kind of injury to some of the pipes, and that, too, without any malicious intention. He was confident that had the damage complained of been effected by the Commercial Gas Company in stead of a new rival one, the Alderman would then have heard nothing of the information at present before Alderman HUNTER said it seemed to him that the pipe was intentionally broken, and therefore wilfully, though not maliciously. Gray was warned not to touch the pipe, and iuvit'd to alter the direction of the main. Grey said, " Very well, I will go under it." Instead of which, he receives lust' uctions, as ho has said, and as Mr. Bugby admits, to break the pipe. He would, therefore, fine Gray 205., the lowest penalty; , but he conceived it was important that no company i should be permitted to destroy the works of another. Name of Company.

BATIADDOR-TEE NEPAULESE PRINCES, This was an action brought by the plaintiff, M. Rosenthall, an artist, against the defendant, Colonel Dheer Shumsheere Jung Bahadoor, one of the Nepaulese Princes who have recently Tithed:this country, to recover the 91112 of 151. for painting a portrait. The plaintiff said that he was instfucted by one of the Nepaulese Princes, during their stay in London, to paint his portrait, and as it was only to be a small sketch, the price fixed was ten guineas; but as he afterwards wished to be placed on horsebadr, an additional Si. was to be charged. His brother, the Prince Bahadoor, was so pleased with the portrait that he gave an order for his likeness to be taken in a different way for 25/., and the order was executed , and the money paid immediately.

The Learned JUDGE then gave a verdict for the plain tiff for the full amount claimed. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOM(BEefoCre/RthCe CIRC UIT.._ crimp.— Guildford, Aug. 10. BARON.) SMITH V. ORCHARD. —PLEA OF INFANCY. This was an action to recover the sum 0f374135. 63., for goods sold and delivered, in one count, and in ano ther 40L upon a bill of exchange accepted by the de fendant. The only plea upon the record was one alleg ing that at the time the defendant accepted the bill he was an infant under twenty-one years of age. Mr. Chambers and Mr. Lush were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Has kins was for the defendant. is an uph o l s t erer, carr yi ng on appears, ondnit-street, an d t h e d e f en d an t . is a T hrei b usiness plaintiff, ka in m ndsail-;loth tbs maker at No. 5, West Smith field. In the beginning of the present year the defen dant called upon the plaintiff and ordered several arti cles of furniture, amounting in value to the sum above mentioned, and on the 24th of February he gave a bill in payment. It was understood at this time that the sailcloth business belonged to the defendant, but it ap peared in point of fact teat it belonged to his mother and that ho was merely minsiging it for her. Mr. HAWKINS said he bad no defence upon the count for goods sold and delivered, but as regarded the bill of exchange he should show that at the period when the defendant accepted it he was not of age, and therefore was not liable. Mrs. Orchard, the defendant's mother, was then ex amined. She deposed that the defendant was her son, and that he was born on the 14th of April, 1830. Mr. CHA3IBERS, in reply, said be thought the course that had been adopted by the defendant in this case was most absurd. He must have been perfectly well aware that he had no defence upon the count in the declara tion for goods sold and delivered, and al l the expense of this action had been incurred fir the sake of saving the difference between the actual value of the goods and the amount of the bill of exchange. The CHIEF BARON, in summing up, said it appeared to him a most prefl.gate proceeding for a mother and son to carry on business in this manner, and fur the latter to order goods as upon his own account, and when the time came for payment, to turn round upon the cre ditor, and say that be was not of age; and he could not help observing, that there appeared to be a good deal of fraud as well as folly mixed up in the transaction. He then directed the jury to return a verdict for the defend ants upon the plea for the bil l of .exchange , and for the plaintiff upon the other. The effect of this, he said, would be, that the plain la ti a ff , and would a Is a h shillings costs for that plea, witnesses in coming down to Guildford to prove the de fendant was under age; but the bulk of the costs, pro bably 50/. or 601, would fall upon the . defe.ndant, the whole sum actually in disp ute not bung more t h an 21. 10..

This case, it will be rememlVred, was tried at the last spring assizes, whe❑ Mr. Newton took a brief from tho defendant himself without the intervention of an attor ney, and the Learned Judge' (Patteson) before whom the case was' tried, refused to hear hire for the defend ant. The verdict then being for the lessor of the plain tiff, Mr. Newton subsequently applied to the court ab eve for a new trial, on the ( ground that the court hero was bound to hear him, and the new trial was granted, and now came on for hearing. The action was un defended, the defendant having, as we understood, again eschewed the interference of an attorney, and of fered a brief—drawn up by himself we presume—to Mr. Skinner, who declined it. A verdict was accordingly given a second time for the lessor of the plaintiff. LORD SEYMOUR V. MORRELL. This was an action brought by the Woods and Forests Commissioners to recover 1,2391. Is. 9d., for dead rent, alleged to be due in respect of cart ,in coal mines in Dean Forest, awarded to defendant and his late brother by the Commissioners, Messrs. Sopworth, Probyn, and Buddle. The question of' fact in dispute was, whether the sum of 61. had been paid as " dead rent" in respect of two of the collieries. The main question to be tried substan tially was, whether in fact the Commissioners had not exceeded their powers under the Act of Parliament in fixing a" dead rent," and whether their powers were not confined merely to the fixing of tonnage duties on the coal actually raised, and could make any award with re ference to gale rent, independently of the working of coal, and the tonnage payable•on the coal so raised. It appearing, in reply to observations by Lord Campbell, that the case was one of considerable importance in the Forest of Dean, and that it would continually go to a superior court, it was arranged that the mattes should at once be referred to that court, as a special case. On the question of fact, after hearing evidence, his Lord ship decided that there was evidence of the appropria tion of two-thirds to the " dead rent " of the two col lieries; and the jury, by direction, found for the plaintiff with a special case, subject to special verdict from the court above. Counsel for the plaintiff, Mr. Keating, Q.C., and Mr. Gordon; counsel for the defendant, Mr. Alexander, Q.C, and Mr. Phipson. CROWN COURT. (Before Mr. Justice WILLIAMS.)

He lost his pocket book, and a 501. note was traced through Lloyd and Co.'s bank in London to the possescion of a man named Pulliam, who said he got it from Reirdon. The jury, however, Acquitted the prisoner. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—WeII s , Aug. 9. A RSON.—Richard Cove, a man 50 years of age, who pleaded guilty yesterday to a charge of arson, was called up for judgment. His Lordship ordered him to be trans ported for 10 years, and observed, in passing sentence, that this was the second instance on this circuit in which prisoners had confessed themselves guilty of the crime of arson, and had stated that they had been led to its commission in the hope of being transported.

CHARGE OF HOCUSSING AND ROBBERY OF 3001— James Cotter was charged befire Mr. Henry, on suspi cion of dru'ging Mr. Peter Thwaites, fruit-seh.sman of Covent garden-market, and Waling from his person 200/. in Bank of England notes. two cheques, one for 704, and the other for 301., and 17 sovereigns. On Friday afternoon, Mr. Thwaites entered the Mer cer's Arms public• house, Mercer-street, Long- acre, and then had in his possession a bag containing the above property. There were several persons drinking at the bar, and they forced themselves upon Mr. Th waites, who drank with them, and of erwards tossed for bottles of wine. Ahout seven o'clock in the evening Mr. Istvics, Mr. Thwaitea's partner, received information that Mr. Thwaites had been surrounded and robbed by a number of swell-mobsmen in the Mercer's Arms. He procee.hd to the public-house in company with their shopman, and found Mr. Thwaites lying in front of the bar, insensible, with his pockets turned inside out, and all his money gone. Mr. Thwaites was now confined to his bed, and was quite out of his mind. He was very much bruised about the face. Mr. Isaacs saw the two 100/. Bank of England notes in Mr. Thwaites' possession in the morning. When he entered the Mercer's Arms in the evening the land lord said Mr. Thwattes came in drunk. Mr. 1.11389, the landlord of the Mercer's Arms, said Mr. Th Haites entered his house about. four o'clokk in the afternoon. In his opinion he was (unto sober. Mr. Luca) thou and , -r went a long examination by the magis trate, who cautioned him as to his answers. Ile said there were four other men in front of the barwhen Mr. Thwaitss entered. They had a bottle of wine, some gin, brandy, and pale ale, which Mr. Thwaites paid for out of a bag which he put in his pocket. Witness went into the back-yard, and, on his return, all the men had left - , with the exception of Mr. Thwaites, svho appear, d insensibly chunk. He did not think the prisoner was theft at the time. A police-constable of the F division said he saw a crowd of persons coming from the direction of Mercer street, and, from the in'ormation he received from Mr. Isaacs, he went to No. 11, Endell-street, and found the prisoner in the yard. He appeared hi if he had been running, and was perspiring very much. The prisoner had no business to be in that house, as ho lived in Shoret. gardens, which was next door to No. 11. He denied all knowledge t . •f the robbery. _ _ The prisoner was remanded until Wednesday next. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY.- Thomas Bloohman, house-porter to the Earl of Yarborough, No. 17, Arlington-street, was charged with having stolen 671. 14s. 6d., the property of his Lordship. William Foulkes, house-steward, said that on Wednes day week he gave the prisoner 67/. 14s. 6d. to pay the parish rates. The money ought to have been paid the next Saturday, but he failed to do it. On Wednesday the prisoner absconded, and did not return till Friday night. lle questioned him as to the cause of his absence, and required to know what he had done fvith the money. The prisoner said he had been to Brighton Races, and had lost the money. his pocket having been picked on the 1 - a2c-course. That being the only account he would give, a constable was called, and he was given into custody. The prisoner, undefended, said he received the money to pay the rates, but unfortunately he met with a friend, who induced him to go to Brighton Races, where he was robbed. lie had otr,red replace the amount by ins'alments, but his offer had been refused.
