STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The yarn market has been in some degree influenced to-day by advices re ceived both from the United States and from India. The report of a state of weather, in some districts, more unfavourable than before for the growing crop of cotton, has led the spinners to a manifest increased firmness in regard to the prices of yarns at large. The spinners of numbers and qualities suitable for the east have experienced a further enhancement of demand, arising from the lightness of stocks, and the upward tendency of prices at Bombay and Cal cutta; and they have consequently asked and ob tained some advance upon the rates that were current at the close of last week. The continental merchants have continued purchasing with their usual caution, and only to a limited extent; but they find the sellers more difficult to deal with than they did a few days since. The home consumers, who had done scarcely anything for several weeks, have again showed themselves in the market, though in a small way, and with much hesitation. Warps and cops haw., therefore, been saleable, on rather better terms than were practicable last week. This does not, however, apply to the finer warps used by the Yorkshire manufacturer, which are less in request, and rather lower. There is a little more in quiry for some numbers of doubled yarns. The makers of 40,inch shirting;, and of some other India fabrics, are requiring an advance of I id. pr piece ; but the buyers are operating with great caution, and to a very limited extent. In other descriptions of goods there is an increase of firmness, though the ag gregate business of the day is only of moderate ex tent. The Greeks, having again very unfavourable accounts from Constantinople, are still further di minishing their purchases, small as they have been of late. For the Brazilian and some other markets there are what may be called fair orders in course of execution. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—There has been a good de mand for kerseys and coarse goods, but the flannel market has been quiet, and less business has been doing. It wool there has been little change, either is price or demand, and the manufacturers continue to purchase for immediate use only. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—We have no alteration to report of the state of the manufacturing department of the silk trade—most of the houses are stopping production as far as practicable, with a view to pre paration for the spring trade. In thrown silk, there has not been much doing this week, in consequence of purchaser.; waiting the result of the public sales of raw silk, which take place to-morrow (Wednesday). The dyers ara said to be slack of work. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDIY.—We have not much change to report in our market to-day ; it continues much the same as last week. Stocks are a little on the increase. Checks of large pattern, and low goods generally, continue to have the best demand. In another week or two we expqct to be pretty active in our market, when it advances more into the season. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—The demand for laSting3 is languid ; but for fancy goods there is increased in quiry, with a prospect of further improvement. The spinners are all fully employed ; but the export houses are still keeping back their orders in the expectation, whether well or ill-founded remains to be seen, that they will be able to purchase on better terms ; but the spinners are reluctant to give way to any extent, as wool is firmer. Considerable quantities of wool have been changing hands, and the quotations may be noted a shade higher. LEEDS, TUESDAY.—There have been dull markets at the Cloth Halls, both to-day and on Saturday ; but, taking into consideration the season of the year, a fair average business continues to be done. Prices keep firm, and stocks of heavy winter goods are very low in the makers' hands. There have been a good many buyers in the town, and some business has been done in the warehouses. KILLARNEY JUNCTION RAILWAY. The people of Kerry are about meeting for the pur pose of putting the claims of this railway before the consideration of the Government: in which attempt we most cordially wish them success. Kerry has a peculiar claim upon their wise consideration. In the first place, it is one of the quietest and most peaceable counties in Ireland; and with the rulers of a country this fact ought to command their respectful considera tion of the present application. In the second place, Kerry has suffered more than any part of the south from the failure of the potato in the present year, when, thank God, most other localities have been very lightly visited. Without any exaggeration, Kerry has suffered severely this year, the blight being of the worst character in most of its baronies. The conse quence must necessarily be, that thousands will be rendered wholly dependent on the chance of pro curing employment as day labourers, or will be driven to seek relief in the workhouses of the county. Then, again, the Killarney Junction is no bubble scheme ; it is a bonii fide undertaking, which, if any line of railway may be calculated on, will be cer tain to pay its proprietary'. At all times there is an immense goods traffic and passenger com munication between Cork and the county of Kerry ; and any increased facility will be certain to increase the traffic and communication which now are known to exist. This legitimate traffic, which affords the safest ground for calculation, is totally independent of the enormous increase in the numbers now visiting the justly celebrated Lakes of Kil larney. Increased facility of reaching the Lakes will, as a matter of course, add to their visitors. Indeed, we anticipate the time when every beautiful spot of that most romantic region will be explored, not merely by English and foreign tourists, but by all classes of our own countrymen, to whom its charms are yet a sealed book. We see in imagination the excursion train dashing into the town, and sending its troops of eager pleasure-seekers to the landing place at Ross Castle, to catch the first glimpse of the 1 fairy beauty of the Lower Lake, its picturesque islands, and its barrier.of frowning mountains. Loving that perennial abode of beauty, and wishing to see the honest and peaceful people of Kerry benefited by remunerative employment, we sincerely trust that the Government will be prevailed upon to afford its aid to an undertaking which is of the most useful, valu able, and interesting character.— Cork Examiner. WRECK OF THE SUPERB. PROCEEDINGS AGAINST THE CAPTAIN AND MATE. ROYAL COURT, JERSEY. On Tuesday Mr. John Priaulx and Mr. John Fleming were presented before the Court by the ' constable of St. Helier, in consequence of the report of Centenier Chevalier, which was read by the Attor ney-General, detailing the circumstances of the wreck of the steamer Superb. The Attorney- General then filed the accusation against the accused, which is as follows : " Mr. John Priaulx and Mr. John Fleming, seized by Centenier Chevalier, of the parish of St. Helier, and presented before justice by constable of the said parish, have been accused by the Attor ney-General, in consequence of the report of the said centenier, viz , the said John Priaulx, who was master of the steamer Superb, and who filled the duties of pilot on board the said steamer; and the said John Fleming, who was mate on baard the said steamer, of having cn Tuesday, the 24th of September, 1850, or thereabouts, criminally caused the death of Isaac Hilgrove Gosset, Esq., and of Miss Julia Nicolle, his wife, of Richard Freeman Rattenbury, gentleman ; of Mr. William D. Knott, and of Mr. J. E. Jackson, passengers on board the said steamer; also of William Craney and Henry Vine Belot, belong ing. to the crew of the said steamer ; and of several other persons who were on board the said vessel, com ing from St. Malo to Jersey, in taking, or causing the said vessel to be taken, without a valid cause, and without necessity, and by a great temerity and culpable imprudence, in a very dangerous part of the rocks, called the Minquier, situated to the south of St. Aubin's Bay, and in which part of the said rocks there is no proper or practicable passage to pass through a vessel such cs the Superb, without placing the said vessel in peril, as well as the lives of those persons who were on board, in consequence of which great temerity and culpable imprudence the said vessel was wrecked on one of the said rocks, and the said Isaac Hilgrove Gosset, Esq , and Miss Julia Nicole, his wife, Richard Freeman Rattenbury, gen tleman ; Mr. William D.

Also, the sail John Priaulx for not having at the time of the wreck taken any proper measure or precaution to save the lives of the persons who were on board ; but, on the contrary, of having himself precipitately left the said vessel." Mr. Advocate Godfray appeared for Messrs. Priaulx and Fleming, and asked time to examine the report and the accusation before he put in a plea. lie wished to state that he considered the Court had no jurisdiction whatever in this matter, the Minquiers not being a dependency of Jersey ; moreover, the ac cu3ation is not in any w►se conformable to the verdict. The Attorney-General—This is not the mGment to examine this question. I conclude that the accused be sent to prison, unless they give bail in the sum of 100/. each, to reproduce themselves whenever called upon. Mr. P. G. Priaulx remained security for Mr. John Priaulx; and Messrs. Francis Le Maistre and Charles Laurens bailed Mr. John Fleming —Jersey Sun. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) TRIAL OF AUGUSTUS ROBINSON FOR FORGERY. Mr. PARRY having addressed the jury for the prisoner, Mr. Justice ERLE summed up, and The jury, after consulting for some time, expressed a desire to retire, and by permission of the Court they accordingly withdrew. After an absence of about twenty minutes the jury returned into Court with a verdict of Guilty of uttering, but acquitted him On the charge of forgery. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Oct. 23. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates.) John White, aged 38, a very respectably-dressed man, was indicted for having stolen printed books, the value of 183., the property of John Murray. It appeared that on the 11th inst. the prisoner went into Mr. Murray's shop, in Albermarle-street, and asked to look at a book. "While the shopman went to fetch the volume in question the prisoner was seen by another person in the shop to take down two other books from the shelf, and place them within the breast of his coat; and just as the man who had gone in search of the book originally asked for by the prisoner had returned with it, he' ran into the street. He was pursued, and the books found upon him as described. The prisoner now in his defence said, in an affected tone of voice, that no doubt he had taken down the books to look at, but he denied most strongly that he bad ever entertained a thought of stealing them. Steal them I What a thought—what an idea! Could too was us he ev er con t emp l ate the theft of a book, or of any thingoe ecl h no; e he 'n cia , btiot boofoks unposru to cchdharsieof e thing. g rse l ta Nl a. h lim y n , agny he w vo a s o m them.. in e e t h v lumes. It had b een hi s custom for a for years to have a love and a fancy for buying books, and he, like other ' frail mortals, had been in the habit of indulging that , love, and had zit the same time gratified and realized his fancy—for the books he bought. He had said he had not intended to steal these books. It might, however, be asked if that were so, how did i*, happen that he had run cut of the shop. The Learned JUDGE—Yes, how do you explain the fact of taking down the books from the shelves, the putting them within the breast of your coat to hide them, and then the running off with them—how do you explain that? The prisoner—Oh, that is very easy. I did not mean to steal the books, but just as I had taken them down, and was about to look at them, my eye caught sight of a man passing by of the name of Williams, who has owed me 255. for more than three years, and after him I ran to ask for payment of that sum. There, that's the explanation of my leaving the shop, but before I could return 1 was laid hold of. What cause, do you suppose, I could hive to steal these books? Why, I am independent, and have lived with my mother for the lest 25 years, and I live with her now, but in a fortnight's time I shall be with my uncle at Wor cester. My uncle is the proprietor of large nursery grounds at Worcester, and lam going down to live with him. In a whining voice the prisoner concluded his long harangue by protesting not only his inno cence as to hny intention of committing a theft, but his utter inability to conceive the theft of a book. If he should be convicted of this charge his character would he in a perfect state of ruin. The Learned JUDGE told the jury that they had heard a very clear statement made by the witnesses for the prosecutor, and they had also heard the sin gular address of the prisoner. Between those two versions of the transaction they must find their way as best they could, and give a verdict accordingly. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The prisoner —Oh, I am going to my uncle at Worcester in a fortnight. The Learned JUDGE—You will not go to Worces ter in a fortnight, I can tell you. Why, how can you come here with your sycophantic manners and whining when you know that this is not the first time that you have been at that bar upon a charge of steal ing books ? The officer said, that on the former occasion the prisoner had been acquitted. The Learned JUDGE—Yes, because the jury then thought there was some doubt as to the man's state of mind. The prisoner —But I have to go to Worcester in a fortnight. The Learned JUDGE—That you will not do, you may depend upon, for I shall send you to the House of Correction for three months, wbere you will have some hard labour as a portion of your punishment for this offence. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. Samuel Sale was brought before Alderman Gibbs, charged with having hidden himself under a bed in a public-house in the neighbourhood of the Mansion house, for the purpose of robbing the premises. A young person, the daughter of the prosecutor, who happened t o b e in the kitchen, which is on the first floor, and immediately under one of the bed rooms, heard, or fancied she heard, a footstep over head at nine o'clock on Tuesday night, and, knowing that strangers had no business there, she went up to ascertain the cause of the unexpected noise. Upon entering the bedroom she looked round, but saw no body. Relying, however, upon the accuracy of her hearing, which caught the sound of a slight rustling as she walked into the room, she looked down and saw a man's arm under the bed. Without uttering a word she quietly walked out of the room, locked the visitor in, slipped down stairs, and, instead of alarm ing her mother, who was in the bar, went into the street, beckoned to a policeman, and, telling him what she had seen, gave him the key of the room, in which he very soon introduced himself to the prisoner, who, as soon as he f o und that it was all up with him. began to knock to be let out. The policeman said he found the prisoner, upon un locking the door, in great confusion. The fellow pre tended that he had mistaken the chamber for a place of accommodation, and that finding it was a bedroom, and not wishing to be suspected of an intention to plunder the house, he just thrust himself under the bed. Upon being asked for his address, he gave a direction to a remote lodging at which he was not known, and in answer to other questions he said he had been in the house before, and had, by the direc tions of the waiter, walked up stairs instead of down stairs. Alderman GlBB3—Well, prisoner, how do you ac count for this very unwelcome visit of yours to the upper part of the house ? The prisoner said he really had made a mistake, and he endeavoured to show that he was incapable of doing the slightest intentional injury. Alderman Girms—Why did you give a false ad dress? The prisoner —The officer mistook me. Alderman (4-Inns—Then we are all in a mistake. You mistook the bedchamber for another sort of place. The officer mistook another address for your address, and I mistake you for a thief who had an intention to rob the house.—(A laugh.) The young lady has ected with a great deal of presence of mind and pru dence in completing the business without terrifying her mother, and you shall go to Bridewell for three calendar months, with hard labour. BOW-STREET. Pat Regan was charged with causing a nuisance in Church. lane, St. Giles's, by emptying the contents of a privy into the public thoroughfare. Mr. J. B. Durham, a cutler, of 456, Oxford-street, stated, that in giving the defendant into custody his only desire was to draw the attention of the magis trate to a very serious nuisance which had long ex isted in Church-lane. The houses in that part of St. Giles's were occupied by people of the lowest class, amongst whom neither order, morality, nor decency prevailed. In one small house as many as ninety per sons of both sexes lived together, and no fewer than thirty occupied one room about thirteen or fourteen feet square. The cesspools ran over, and saturated the rooms and passages on the ground-floor. The nightsoil was usually swept into the street to be car ried off by the gutters in wet weather, and witness finding the defendant engaged in this way, and thore by causing a most intolerable stench in the neigh bourhood, in the middle of the day, resolved to give him into custody, and test the power of the magis trate to compel the interference of the proper local authorities. The complainant added that he had been in repeated communication with the Board of Health and the parish officers during the past two years, without succeeding in getting the as sistance of either towards the suppression of the nui sance. He had seen in one of the houses a sick woman very far advanced in pregnancy lying upon straw or shavings, which had been discoloured by the filth running in from an adjoining room. The defendant said he had no help far it. In wet weather his room was so bad that be was obliged to shovel it out of the door. The privies were so full that the soil ran over and got into the rooms. It ran from one room into another, and sometimes from one house into another, and so what could they do, except get rid of it ? He was only shovelling it into the gutters, to be taken off in the drains; for it smelt worse inside than it did out. Mr. JARDINE told him in future not to touch it. It was scandalous that such a nuisance should be suf fered for a single day ; and, if no one else interfered, surely the police should have taken up the matter. The public voice was being raised every day against evils of much less magnitude than this. his Worship then gave directions to the inspector of police to go and make himself acquainted with the facts, and pro mised to give all the assistance in his power to sup press the nuisance. — The defendant was discharged. MARYLEBONE. After the disposal of the night charges Mr. F. R. Jones, solicitor, who was accompanied to the court by Mr. John Wilson, of 18, Charles -street, Middle sex Hospital, made application to Mr. Broughton for a warrant against Mr. Samuel Steele, 24, Great Titchfield-street, Marylebone, for an assault of a violent nature upon the aforesaid Mr. Wilson, both parties being members of the Marylebone vestry. Hi s Worship, to whom the' application was made, is also a vestryman. Mr. Jones briefly stated that, after the breaking up of the vestry meeting on Saturday afternoon, the 12th instant, Mr. Steele came behind Mr. Wilson and struck him a blow on the back part of the head, a proof of -which.assault would be forthcoming upon the case being gone into on a future day. It was further stated that Mr. Steele had been writ ten to to the effect that if he would give a guinea to the poor-box, and apologize for the unwarrantable attack which h e h a d been guilty of, nothing more would be required, but as he had not thought fit to make any reply to the communication addressed to him, Mr. Wilson felt it his duty to institute the present proceedings. The fracas arose oat of an allegation made at the vestry with respect to Mr. Steele having netted and carried away from Marylebone workhouse between forty and fifty pi g eons therein located, and making pie s o f t h em f or himself and family. The allegation was at the time it was made indignantly , denied, and we believe that with respect to the as sault said to have been committed, the casus Belli was that of Mr. Wilson having at a committee meeting of bird, t a the vestry es t r written y drawn beneath it upon the table the figure of a " What about the pigeons ?" The warrant was granted, and the matter, which had excited a considerable degree of interest amongst the members of the Marylebone " Parliament" and their friends, is appointed for hearing at two o'clock on Tuesday n ext . Mr. Wilson said that in the event of the terms proposed by him with respect to an apology and a donation to the poor-box being made prior to Tues day next, he should, notwithstanding the disregard which had been shown by Mr. Steel to the letter ad dressed to him, be perfectly satisfied without troubling his Worship any more upon the subject. Mr. Wilson and his solicitor then quitted the court. LAMBETH. George Harwood, alias Co?e, alias Froggy, a des perate-looking ruffian, and notorious burglar and thief, was brought up for final examination upon three separate charges ; the first with being concerned with others in drugging end robbing James Dicken son of four sovereigns and about 21. in silver; the second, with stealing a firkin of butter, the property of William Johnson ; and the third, with escaping from the Walworth station-house. In support of the first charge, Mr. Dickenson, a boot and shoemaker, residing at No. 4, High-street, Peckham, deposed that on the evening of that day twelvemonth he was in a public-house in White chapel, reading a newspaper about the Mannings, when the prisoner and another man got into conver sation with him, and pressed him to take some gin wi'h them. He foolishly did so, and immediately after became so stupified as to lose all recollection of what became of him until the following morning, when he found himself at the police-station in Leman street, Whitechspel. When he entered the public house he was quite sober, and had in his possession four sovereigns and about two pounds in silver in his pocket, and this, as well as a blue silk pocket-hand kerchief, be was robbed of. Two witnesses, to whom the prisoner was well known, deposed to having seen him and a man named Norris leading the prosecutor, who appeared as if in a state of extreme intoxication, along Brick-lane, Wbitechapel, on the evening of the 23.1 of October, 1849. They took him into one of the bye-streets, and there Norris rifled his pockets while the prisoner held up his arms. Both then made their escape, but Norris was subsequently apprehended, tried, and con victed of the charge, but the prisoner managed to keep out of the way until about a week since, when he was apprehended on suspicion of com mitting a burglary in Short's-gardens, Drury lane, and upon being discharged from Bow-street was retaken by Sergeant Quinnear upon the present charges. Po - lice-sergeant James M'lntosh H 9 deposed to having found the prosecutor about nine o'clock in the evening of that day twelvemonth in Thrall-street, Whitechapel, in a state of apparent intoxication, and removed him to the station-house. Norris, the priso ner's companion, had been tried at the Middlesex Ses sions on the charge, convicted, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment. In the second charge, of stealing the firkin of butter, the prisoner was distinctly sworn to as being one of the two men who took the property from the door of the prosecutor on the evening of the 22d of March last, and carried it away. Two days after he was taken into custody by Sergeant Quinnear, who removed him to Lock's-fields station-house, but he managed to get away from there, and has been at large until he was apprehended as above stated. The prisoner cross-examined the different wit nesses with a tact and shrewdness that would have done credit to the most practised Old Bailey barrister, but the evidence was so conclusive as to baffle his ingenuity to shake it; and he was fully committed for trial. A SCENE AT SESSIONS. At the Cambridgeshiie sessions, which terminated on Saturday last, before the Hon. Eliot Thomas Yorke, M.P., chairman, and a full bench of magis trates, the following curious scene occurred after the trial of one Henry Barlow, on a charge of stealing a hen, the property of a magistrate, the Rev. E. Law, of Orwell. The facts of the case were, that one of the prosecu tor's servants having heard a noise made by a hen rearing partridges in a pit, went to ascertain the cause, and saw a man (Barlow) lying in it. tie quietly shut down the glass, and went and fetched a fellow-servant. On their return they dragged Barlow (who either was, or assumed to be, asleep), out, and then found the body of the hen in one place, and the head, which had been pulled, and not wrung off, in another. The prisoner's counsel (Mr. Naylor) submitted that the felonious taking was not proved, and on this being overruled, he argued that it could only be con sidered a case of trespass, for the purpose of sleeping in a warm place. If the man had intended to steal, he would have taken the hen out of the coop. This was more the freak of a drunken man, to prevent the hen, by her cackling, betraying his resting-place. The prisoner might be punished, but not as a felon. The Chairman having summed up, the foreman of the jury delivered as the verdict, " Guilty of a tres pass on Mr. Law's premises with a felonious intent, and of pulling the head off the fowl." The Chairman—lt is necessary fur you to consider whether the prisoner is guilty of the stealing, taking, avi carrying away this fowl. Foreman (after consulting)—Not guilty of stealing. The Clerk of the Peace inquired, in the usual form, if that was the unanimous verdict, and there was no dissent. The Chairman—l am informed that there is one gentleman on the jury who will not find a •erdict of guilty under any circumstances. Mr. Carter, you may leave the box ; such a person ought not to take an oath. Mr. Carter then left the jury -box, exclaiming, " Why, I was the only one who was of a contrary opinion to the verdict." Mr. Metcalfe (for the prosecution)—There is some mistake. Let that juryman come back. Mr. Naylor—l protest against it. The juryman has left the box. If he ought not to have been there he ought not to return. The jury have returned a verdict, and been asked if they were unanimous. The Chairman then recited the points of the case again, Foreman—We find the prisoner guilty of a tres pass in pulling off the head of the fowl. Mr. Naylor—That is again a verdict of not guilty. The Chairman—You must say whether the pri soner is guilty. Did he take the fowl from the ground ? I cannot allow the ends of justice to be perverted. • Foreman—lf you say that is sufficient, we say that he Is guilty. Chairman—You must not put your,verdict on me. Mr. Naylor—l. again protest against these proceed ings; this is not justice. Foreman (being asked by the Chairman, with vehemence)—Guilty. This verdict was then recorded. Mr. Naylor—l apply for a case on the practice. Will the court grant it ? Chairman—Certainly not. The prisoner was sentenced by the chairman to ten Sears' transportation (a previous conviction having been proved). Ills sister immediately set off on foot for Loudon with the ostensible design of soliciting the judges for a pardon. THE LATE BURGLARY AND OUTRAGE AT BIRMINGHAM. BIRMINGHAM, OCT. 23.—This case, the hearing of which has been from time to time adjourned, in con sequence of the precarious state of Mr. Marston, the gentleman attacked, has occupied the attention of the magistrates at the public office for a considerable por -ticn of this day. The residence of Mr. Marston—the scene of the outrage—is situated in Great Hampton street, one of the principal thoroughfares of Birming ham, and the main outlet from the centre of the town to the districts of South Staffordshire. It is a large double-fronted house immediately contiguous to Li very-street and Constitution-hill, and adjoining the residence of Mr. Hollins, the sculptor. The magistrates on the bench to-day were Dr. Melson and Mr. Charles Shaw, and from the notoriety of the case the court was densely crowded throughout the investigation. Mr. Marston, on entering, ac companied by two members of his family, was, in con sequence of weakness, accommodated during the in quiry with a seat at the attorneys' table. Five prisoners were placed at the bar charged with being implicated in the burglary, and the deadly assault by which it was followed. Their names are Christopher Healey, Joseph Marshall, William Wal lace, Elijah Wareham, and John Smith. No evilence was adduced against the last-named three prisoners, and they were discharged. Healey, by trade a work ing jeweller, is a nephew of Mr. Marston, the prose cutor. The trade of Marshall is unknown, but be has some reputation as one of what is vulgarly termed the " light weights" of the prize ring. They are both known to the police as thieves. Mr. Tyndal, jun., solicitor, appeared for the prose cution ; and Mr. T. Harding for the two prisoners. Mr. Marston, being sworn, deposed as follows : I am a gold beater, living in Great Hampton-street, in this town. My counting house and warehouse communicate with my house by a doorway. The counting-house door opens on to the staircase, oppo site my bedroom door. During the night I always leave my counting-house and bedroom doors open, and between the two doors a gaslight burns the whole night. There is a closet in my counting-house, and at the top of it a trapdoor, which is always kept nailed up. That trapdoor leads through the ceiling to the roof of the building. On Saturday, the sth instant, I remember going through the counting-house into the warehouse after the men had left work. On my return I bolted and barred the door communicating between the counting-house and the warehouse. Everthing was then safe, and the ceiling of the warehouse unbroken. My bedroom window overlooks the roof of the ware house, and I can see it as I lie in bed. If there had been any hole in it on the Sunday I should have been certain to see it. There was no hole in it on that day. I went to bed about a quarter before ten o'clock on the Sunday night, and left my bedroom and count ing -house doors open as usual. The gas was burning between the doors of the two rooms. Immediately before going to bed I went into the counting-house. Everything was then safe, and the door between the counting-house and warehouse fastened, as usual. About half-past two on Monday morning I fancied I heard a noise on the premises. I sat upright in bed several times and listened, but the wind being very boisterous, I concluded th e no i se arose f rom that cause, and went to sleep again. I afterwards heard the clock strike two and three, and, I believe, four o'clock. When I awoke shortly after four I noticed that there was not nearly so much light in the bed room as there ought to be, and I not out of bed. I found the lkdroom door three parts shut. I opened it and looked down stairs. I saw a man at the bottom with a dark lantern in his hand. He was crouching down and entering the dining-room. I immediately went down stairs and pushed the dining-room door open with my right hand, when out sprang two men. I turned round, having nothing with which to defend myself, and went quietly up stairs. The men followed close behind. When I got to the top of the stairs I was struck a heavy blow on the knee, which made me fall against the banisters. I instantly wrenched one of the rails out of the banisters, anti began to defend myself. Both the men were on me at the time. I received several violent blows on the head, which pre vented me making any better resistance. I cannot tell what weapon the man on the left side had, but the man on the right had a poker. I had a slight glimpse of the man on the left, but the one on my right I saw very distinctly. Mr. Tyndal—Look at the prisoners, and say whe ther you can identify one or both of them ? The pro secutor—l believe Marshall to be the man on my right hand, who had the poker. Mr. Tyndal—Which is the person whom you believe to have been on your left hand ? The prose cutor—l believe Healey to be the man, but he leant so much over me that I had not a distinct view of him. Mr. Gem (magistrate's clerk)—Had you ever seen either of the prisoners before ? The prosecutor—l think I saw Healey the Thursday before at the bottom of my yard, but I will not speak to him posi tively. The two men on the staircase escaped over me, and I immediately went down stairs and let the police in. Cross-examined by Mr. Harding—Healey, I be lieve, is my nephew. I am pretty sure he is one of the men. I judge by his figure, his trousers, and the way he leant over me. I thought by the gaslight his trousers were more of a drab colour. (The prisoner in the dock wore light green trousers.) I had not seen Healey for years, and I had no means of recog nising him on the morning in question except from the slight view I had of his person. I saw him seve ral times over me as I was parrying his blows, but I could not catch so clear a view of him as I did of the other man. Mr. Harding—You say you had reason to judge that Healey was one of the men, because his trousers were of a dark drab colour ? The prosecutor—l did not believe him to be one of the men simply because he wore dark drab-coloured trousers, nor did I say so. Mr. Harding—What, then, was there with respect to his trousers which led you to believe that Healey was one of the men ? The prosecutor—What I meant to say was, that the man had on what I thought to be a dark-coloured pair of trousers. Mr. Harding—What was there in his figure by which you knew Healey to be one of the men ? The prosecutor—l observed him to be a very young man. Mr. Harding—Was his face coloured ? The pro secutor—l believe it was, but not so strongly as that of the other man. I thought from his face, as well as his figure, that he was a young man. I did not ex amine his face, but I saw him sufficiently. Mr. Harding—You did not positively recognise the face of your own nephew ? The prosecutor—l did not. Mr. Harding—You say he leant over you ; de scribe what you mean. The prosecutor—Every time he struck me I parried the blow, and be seemed to crouch to conceal his face, so that I should not get a good sight of it. _ Mr. Harding—Perhaps he succeeded in that ? The prosecutor —I saw his face several times. Mr. Harding—ln point of fact, the leaning over of the man was no reason why you believe Healey to be that person ? The prosecutor—No, certainly not; but now and then I got a sight of him. Mr. Harding—l suppose you were somewhat ex. cited and alarmed, were you not ? The prosecutor— I was quite collected, except for half a minute, when I received the blow on my head from the poker. It was after that that the men made their escape. I had previously received several blows on the head. Ann Thompson—l am servant to Mr. Marston. On Thursday, the 31 October, I observed three men inside my master's gates, and Healey was one of them. About a month previously, on a Sunday, I believe, I saw the same three men in the same place in my master's yard. The man who rents the stable was with them. On the Sunday morning, about six weeks ago, one of the men spoke to me. Healey was the man, and he is one of the persons I saw on the 3d of October. On Saturday previous to the burglary I cleaned my master's plate. I placed it in the drawers in the breakfast-room. The creamjug and sugar basin produced were part of the plate. On the Mon day morning, soon after four o'clock, I was awoke by Mr. Marston's screams. I found the plate on the floor by the drawers in the breakfast-room. Cross-examined by Mr. Harding—l did not see the men in the yard, the first time, for more than half an instant. I got away as fast as I could, for one of them spoke very rudely to me. I believe that man to be Healey. He had a coloured waistcoat, and a little red in his handkerchief. I do not recollect any more about him. The men I saw agai❑ on the 3d of Octo ber I believe to be the same men, es they were very hke them ; they stood in the same place and position as they did before. On the second occasion I did not observe them particularly. Mr. Harding—Now, I ask you, do you believe that on that second occasion, the 3d of October, Healey was one of the men ? Witness—l do believe that he was one of the men I saw on the second oc casion. Mr. Harding—Now, why do you believe that Elealey was one of the men? Witness—By the way he stood on the first occasion. Mr. Harding—Did Healey stand in any particular way on the 3d of October ? Witness—He did not. Sir. Harding—What do you mean, then, by saying that you believed Healey to be the man, from the particular manner in which he stood when you thought you saw him a month previously ? Witness—l believe it was the sacne man. Mr. Harding—You have sworn in your examina tion that Healey was one of the men you saw in the yard on the 31 of October. Is that true, or is it not ? Witness—From the way in which he stood, and from what I saw of him, I believe he was one of the men. James Baker, police•constable 37—On the morning of the 7th of October I wad called to Mr. Marston 's house by cries for help. I entered by the front, and went upstairs and found a hat between the roof and the ceiling. The ceiling and the roof of the ware house were broken open. Mr. Caswell, hatter, deposed that he sold the hat produced eight or nine months ago to the prisontr Healey. A little before last Birmingham fair Healey brought the hat to be cleaned, and he fetched it away about three days afterwards. Cross-examined by Mr. Harding—Whatils there particular about the hat which enables you to know it ? Witness—There is nothing peculiar about it, but I know the hat by its size and general appear ance. I cannot tell how many similar hats I have sold within the last eight or nine months, but not above 30. Mr. Harding—How do yqu know that you sold this particular hat to this particular man ? Witness— During the last eight months I have had about one gross of these hats from the same manufacturer, and this was one of that gross. Dr. Melson—Where his the man who cleaned the hat ? Witness—His name is Adams, and he is in Ton k-street. Dr. Melsom—Let him be sent for. Witness—l knew Healey well, and have sold him caps as well as hats. Out of the gross of hats I have purchased within eight months there were five or six of the size produced, and I am quite sure that he had one of them. I can swear to its being the hat from the circumstance of the prisoner bringing it to me to be cleaned. The maker is Cooke, of Denton, and he may certainly have sold hats of a similar kind to other hatters in Birmingham. I took the hat to George Adams to be cleaned. Re-examined by Mr. Tyndal—When the hat was brought back from Adams, did you observe anything particular about it ? Wit ness —Y es , th ere was an old lining in it instead of a new one. I lifted up the leather and saw th e names o f "D ownes " on th e in side of the lining. Tnat name was on the lining when 1 gave the hat back to the prisoner. By Mr. Harding—l removed the lining for the purpose of seeing that it was properly done. Mr. Harding—Now, upon examining the lining, tell me if you can find the name of " Dowries" upon it now ? Witness—No; upon further examination I find it is the name of "Bowen." To the best of my belief the hat I gave to Adams to be cleaned and afterwards returned to Healey had on the inside of the lining the name of " Downes." Mr. Tyndal said this was the only evidence that he was prepared to bring forward at present. There was other evidence which could be produced on a future occasion, but possibly the magistrates might consider that there was sufficient to justify them in committing the prisoners for trial. Mr. Harding contended that the evidence was ex tremely slight against both prisoners. There was none against Marshall except that of Mr. Marston himself; and that affecting Healey was so isconclu sive and inconsistent that he (Mr. 'Harding) did not think the Bench would feel it to be their duty to com mit the prisoners to the assizes. Mr. Shaw said they bad determined to send both the prisoners for trial. Chief Superintendent Stephens—Other evidence will be produced at the assizes. Mr. Harding—And I shall then complain that we have not had an opportunity of hearing it. What amount of bail will the Bench accept for Healey ? It is a long time to the assizes. Mr. Shaw—You must apply to a higher court if you wish toe prisoners to be admitted to bail' shall riot accept it. Chief Superintendent Stephens—l that the prisoners be remand d, when we shall Pr duTI • c farther evidence apinst them. •, prtsoners were accordingly rema nded Friday next. have to orPoli, NEWS.
