:he following appeared in our Third Edition of rday :—] FRANCE. Siecle says :—" The cause of universal suffrage n. Not only is the majority henceforth divided, what authority can the law of May 31 now enjoy, • having been disavowed by the executive power, oaly indebted to the incapacity of the Ministry 4 triumph founded on three votes ? Three votes a half, excluding from universal suffrage 3,,;00,000 citizens, is an impossibility, which it is unnecessary fur us to demonstrate. Oa the first op portunity which shall present itself, these votes, fol loved by many others, will pass to the side of reason. of good sense, and of peace, and the law of May 31 will be done with. The vote of yesterday finishes nolling, it begins everything." We read in the National:—" A majority of seven voes against the repeal of the law of May 31—such is the balance-sheet of the Royalists. Let them congratulate themselves, if they please, on t heir triumph ; for our part, we consider our defeat as a victory. Seven votes ! but such a fioare speaks volumes. There were 703 voters, so that the ab solute majority w as 352. 348 votes placed in the urn proclaimed the principle of universal suffrage, whilst 355 maintained the restricted suffrage. The law of May 31, mortally wounded by the presentation of the new Bill, has now virtually ceased to exist. From yesterday that law, condemned by common sense, right, and the Consti titim, is no longer capable of being executed. We city those who voted for its maintenance to have it spiked on the day when the three millions of ex c fed should present themselves at the door of the electoral sections, holding in one hand, not even the Consiitution,but merely the vote of last evening and the Message of M. Bonaparte, and in the other their bulletin. There is no amount of physical force, cannons, bayonets, or what not, that could struggle against such moral forc e . Th e A ssem bl y , sp lit i n two, has signed the death -warrant of the law of May 31. Who can deny it ?" We read in the ational—" Yesterday, at the moment of the b a ll o t, we saw w i t h emo ti on M. Frar.cois Arago enter the Assembly, supported by two cateagues, to tender his vote. Confined for a long p.ist by a cruel illness, he left his bed to fulfil a civic duty, and j o i n hi s vo t e t o th ose o f th e members who wish to save France from the horrors of civil war." • 'We learn from the y Akbar of Algiers, of the 6th, that accounts have been received there from the column which had marched towards the east, but they contained nothing of striking interest. The tor rQnts of rain which had fallen had prevented the Go iernor-General from forming a junction with General Cully until the 23 inst. On the 3d, however, a movement had commenced, and the French troops had penetrated into the country of the Maatas, and burnt several villages. ENGLAND TO KOSSUT.H. Some fine and impassioned verses so entitled appear the Weekly News and Chronicle of Saturday ; from winch we extract the following : Thought writes the doom of despots—thought pervades The lowliest alleys and the loneliest glades, And general culture with her smile allures The 'erst rude hearts of artisans and boors. 0.1 iron roads—along electric wires, Sc7ence and Freedom dash their kindling fires, I , vade,d Darkness mourns her sons released, E s day the Press gains ground upon th t4 Priest. Tn.:. peasant reads—let but the wit:der think, An. i Europe's Empires, based on Bayonets, sink. K - osath! our love goes with thee—when we heard First of thy coming —all our hearts were stirred, 1::: - esentient of thy presence —now thou 'rt grown like of ourselves—a brother of our own— Ir. this Great England thy true words have lit A qvechless fire—let tyrants quake at it! nations bless its blazing)—never more 6eali England sit upon her island shore Alone among the Peoples—thou hast taught A loftier wisdom and a nobler th , :night. W.•th yon great Nation o'er the Western wave— ,nd joined in hand—we've sworn the world to saw. W —heirs of ancient freedom—we who give Th-5 civic rule by which the nations live; When Europe's despots, with their rabble rout cowled camp-followers, league to trample out Tte life of Freedom; in her holy cause— in her great Lame—our voice shall thunder " Pause!" Elsewhere in the same journal we find the signiE,ant remarks subjoined : Alagna vinim mater—it is our greatest glory, hitherto, to bave been the parent of such an offspring as America —the mother of prolific nations! And it will be the consummation and crown of that glory, when England, in her old age, shall be enabled to fight the last battle against the last enemies of freedom, with no other auxiliaries than the members of her own family and her own descendants, inspired by her voice, and collected under her banner from every quarter of the globe.

THE GUARDS AND THE BREVET.—If any further proof were wanting of the superiority of the good fortune of the officers of the Guards over those of the Line, we have it in the present Brevet. Ttie Guards have the lion's share of promotion in the rank of full colonel. For 21 lieutenant-colonels promoted out of 137 regiments of cavalry, infantry, and colohial corps, no less than 10 lieutenant-colonels of the brigade of Guards (of seven battalions) have, thanks to their former rapid promotion, now attained the rank of full colonel, without counting four more offi _ , =,rs now on half pay, but late of the Guards. VACANT MILITARY COMMAND..—The appointment of Commandant of the Royal Military Asylum, Chelsea, is about to become vacant by the promotion of C. , lonel Brown, who declined at the Brevet of 1846 resigning the appointment for promotion, but which he is now induced to accept. THE COMMAND AT CHATHAM.—It was, we believe, Lb intention of the Horse Guards to have offered the co , :nneand at Chatham to Colonel Sir John Campbell, 98;h Regiment; but on the representation of L„rd Dalhousie he is to be retained in India, and kept command of a district, notwithstanding the arrival ftengal of Major-General Godwin. ROYAL ARTILLERY STAFF.—Lieutenant. Colonel e " i tuer, Assistant Director General, at 230/. per eiocutn, is to be Inspector of Artillery at 4001.; Lieu teoant-Colonel H.ardinge, brother t o L o rd H ar di nge , is to be Superintendent of the Royal Military Repo .7.: tory, at 2001. per annum, with a residence, vice Campbell, promoted. Colonel Cruttenden, it is ru !floured, has been offered the command in Ireland, vice Turner. RECRUITING DISTRICTS.—i g e h Oi t r anc ei d J. Taylor, late on rne Staff at the Isle of w olonel Graves, formerly on the Staff of Dublin , are named as likely oto succeed to be Inspecting Field first named, it is supposed, will succeed to the the London District. TROOPS FOR THE CAPE.—The Cabinet Council lately held was to take into consideration the state of affairs at the Cape of Good Hope, when it was re.. solved That two General Officers, with five regiments and .4 competent Staff, should be sent out without del7.y to that colony, but the final adjustment of it was de't'erred. LIEUTENANT-COLONEL ABBOT, 3D WEST INDIA REGlMENT.— Lieutenant-Colonel Abbott has arrived i in Engla n d fr om J ama i ca , v i a N ew York, and has sent 1 li'3unis papers to sell. Major Finlay is for purchase, " o t We believe n one o f th e C a pt a i ns in the regiment. Deputy asa GUARDS.—Captain Pack, 7th Fusiliers, , Assistant Adj u t ant -G enera l , i s on leave of absence. Mr. Ferguson, Assistant to the Military Secret 4tY, Lord. Fitzroy f Somerset, will, we under stand, be unable, rom indispositi on , t o r e sume his duties in th e offi ce of Colonel Si r John Wilson,the Commander-in • Chief. C.B. and K EL, has the option to acc e pt promotion , cho msaHospital. DUBLIN his appointment as Adjutant of DUBLIN STAFF . —Li e utore r iit e nt i Tolonel C. K. S co t t, A. , sistant Quartermaster-(4 Barracks the Dubli n Di s - Ro n al a y Dis trict, has returned to the , 71st Highland from lea ve ghland Light of ahgence. Captain Robertson i&sotry, Ist battalion, Assistant Deputy Quart er - master-General of the Dublin District, ha s proceeded on leave of absence. _ _ The following cavalry regiments, stationed in Ire land, are first on the roster for Great Britai n , viz,, 7th Queen's Hussars, 6th Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers), ISt King's Dragoon Guards, sth Dragoon Guards, 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards. Commander W. R. Smith (1851) died at the Lu natic Asylum, Haslar Hospital, on the 11th instant. The flag-ship Southampton, 50, Captain Cory, ex pected from the Brazils by the end of next month, THE SUN, will be paid off at Chatham. She will probably touch at Portsmouth, where Rear-Admiral Reynolds, C. 8., will strike his flag. It is reported that the two next line-of-battle ships for commission will be the St. Vincent, 100, at Portsmouth, and the Formidable, 84, at Sheerness; the Queen, 116, now in the Mediterranean, is to be refitted as soon as she comes home, and to he re commissioned. THE MARINE WHO SHOT THE SEAMAN OF THE INCONSTANT.—The marine who when on board her Majesty's ship Inconstant, 36, shot a seaman dead, at the peremptory command of Captain Shepherd, has been discharged the service on a pension, having me t with an accident in gunnery exercise by which he lost his trigger finger. It should be stated that the sailor was 1E the act of swimming ashore at San Francisco for the purpose of deserting. The marine missed the man, and it was supposed designedly so, the first shot, and was ordered on pain of instant death to render his second shot effective. The poor fellow obeyed his orders too fatally, although the seaman was a long distance from the ship. Commander Samuel Sparshott (1818) died in the early part of the week. file late Commander Spar , shott was appointed Deputy-Comptroller of the Coast Guard in May, 1827, and continued to dis charge the duties of his office from that period up till within a short time of his demise. There are already numerous candidates in the field for the desirable vacancy, and rumour has given it to Captain Jer niagham ' - but for what reason we cannot im a g ine, unless it be thought that a captain might fill the situation in a more efficient manner than a com mander ; but we are of opinion that in this in stance precedent should prevail, and a vigilant active commander be selected for the appointment. MINING INTELLIGENCE: (From the Mining Journal.) There has been a little more animation in the market this week, chiefly, however, in dividend mines, and those approaching to that state, others being much neglected except by their chief supporters. Caution is very necessary, and, by using it in the careful selection of goe,cl and promising mines, investments might be made in many with the prospect of remunerating results. In the Metal Market, Copper moves off steadily, and the quotations are well maintained. English Lead re inains the same as last. Part of the late arrivals of Spanish has been sold at 151. 17s. 6d., duty paid. British Tin is very satisfactory: appearances indicating a rise in price. Foreign has also been much inquired for, and sales effected to a fair extent. Tin Plates have been greatly dealt in.

CELEBRATION OF THE REPEAL OF THE WINDOW TAX. On Thursday a dinner in celebration of the repeal of the window-tax took place at the Albion Hall, Ham mersmith, Viscount Duncan, M.P., in the chair. The cloth having been'removed, The CHAIRMAN proposed " The queen," and inter alia said it had sometimes been said that the monarchy was an expensive institution ; but it was his duty to tell them that our Saxon ancestors had set apart a property—and a very large property it was—which, if properly applied, would maintain the Sovereign in dignity and splendour. On the accession of each So vereign that property was made over to the manage ment of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests and of the House of Commons; and if, up to the present time, it had not yielded enough for the efficient sup port of the monarchy the House of Commons were to blame for it.—(Cheers.) If that property were, as he trusted it soon would be, well and truly adminis tered, there would from that source be sufficient to maintain the Sovereign without—(The rest of the sentence was lbst in cheers.) In proposing the toast of" Prince Albert," The CHAIRMAN said they were met there that day to celebrate the repeal of the window-tax; and cer tainly that Crystal Palace, over which the Prince presided was a most appropriate monument of the repeal of the window-tax. He (the Chairman) had sur veyed it, and could not help saying that if the Com missioners at Somerset House had levied the window tax there in the mode they were accustomed to do, it would have made a very large bole in the Exhibition surplus. Indeed, had the window-tax been then in existence, the Crystal Palace could not have been raised, or if raised, it could not have been inhabited. To the toast of "The Army," Captain REED re turned thanks. To that of " The Navy," Captain Hoot.. Mr. SIMPSON proposed the toast of the evening, " The health of the Noble Chairman." He had great pleasure in proposing that toast, connected as it was with the repeal of the window• tax. As in Hammer smith they had been the first to work for the repeal of the window-tax, so they were the first to tender their thanks to the Noble Lord. He wished they had more such men in the House of Commons. There were plenty who could make good speeches, full of sound, signifying nothing, but very few like Viscount Duncan, who attacked this monstrous evil, and who, like his great ancestor, bound his colours to the mast, and said, "No surrender." Victory had crowned his efforts, and they were there to celebrate the victory. Lord DUNCAN, M.P., in returning thanks, said that he was a stranger to every individual in that room. It was true, as had been said by his friend Mr. Simp son, that be was selected to lead in the cause of the repeal of the window-tax—(Cheers)—but it was not to be supposed that to his efforts alone its repeal was owing. He had also to tender his thanks to many friends whom he had had assisting him, both in and out of the House of Commons ; he had to tender his thanks to the gentlemen of the metropolitan districts, and to their Members, who were never absent when their presence could be of any assistance.—(Cheers.) Without this aid he could have done but little in the House of Commons; and to many of the metropolitan Members he owed a deep sense of obligation for their kindliest) and advice to him on various occasions ; especially be was pleased to find himself sitting with Vie Noble Lord (Lord R. Grosvenor) on his right. In the year 1848, when he had brought forward the question of the window-tax, he was, as usual, opposed by the then Government with every man they had, but his Noble Friend, at that time a member of the Government, rose in his place, and announced that this tax was intolerable.—(Cheers ) No speech that evening gave him (Lord Duncan) greater satisfaction, for it was well known that his Noble Friend was a real sanitary reformer. Lord Duncan next entered upon a history of the movement, stating that in the year 1845, just before Parliament met, a large meeting had been held in Bath, which was attended by gentlemen of all shades of opinion ; that at this meeting they had instructed him with re spect to the grievance of which they bad to complain, and that after all he bad found the effects in fact worse than they had been described to him by these his constituents.—(Cheers.) He showed the progress he had gradually made in the House of Commons; he said, amid cheers, that he had made it a rule never to bring forward a motion in that House without press ing it on to a division ; and that he had done so in the session of 1845. He was defeated by a majority of 46, but the very next morning leading articles appeared in the public press remarking that a few more such victories and the question would be carried.—(Hear.) In 1846 and 1847 all attention was bestowed on the corn-laws, and the window-tax had no chance. In 1850 the Government had but a majority of three against him ; and then came the year 1851, with its memorable surplus of 1,150 0001. Then, at last, they repealed the window-tax. For seven long years the battle had been fought, and it was only because their arguments were totally unanswerable that the battle was ultimately won. After some further observa tions, in which his Lordship contended that this was the age of progre , s, he said it was the duty of those who were called the aristocracy (it was very difficult to define who were the aristocracy) to lead, and not to follow.—(Cheers ) Mr. KENNEDY, in very laudatory terms, proposed the health of their representatives, Lord R. Grosvenor and Mr. B. Osborne, of whom the former was pre sent. There had been no cause of progress in which Mr. B. Osborne—(Hisses)—had not been as well as Lord R. Grosvenor.—(Cheers.) He, therefore, pro posed them both. Lord R. GROSVENOR, M.P. replied. The Noble Lord said that during the six years he had repre sented that great and important metropolitan county he had nowhere received a more candid considera tion than there, in that electoral district in which they were assembled —(He sr.) lie naturally con curred in the propriety of doing honour to his Noble Friend, for be had been witness of the zeal, ability, talent, and tact, which his Noble Friend Ind em ployed upon that occasion. His Lordship made some further remarks upon the window-tax, which were most favourably received, and concluded by stating that he was sorry for the absence of his Hon. Col league, who, he was sure, regrett..d it. Mr. SERLE proposed " The Visitors." Mr. GASKELL replied. Various other toasts followed before the company dispersed. ABOLITION OF COMPULSORY MARRIAGEi IN PitliSt , lAN POMEItANIA. A correspondent of the National, of Berlin, from Greifswald, in Pomerania, evidently a jurist by pro fession, gives a minute account of a remarkable legal process still possible in that province, which has re quired the intervention of the Supreme Tribunal of Berlin to cancel, on the grounds of common law and common sense. Compulsory baptisms are pos sible in all parts of the Monarchy, but in New or Swedish Pomerania a man may be married against his consent and protest, by the judge of the district court, if it has "sentenced" the party to matrimony ! The form of procedure is thus de scribed; it, after a verbal promise or " engagement," certain consequences result which generally render a marriage very necessary, and the man refuses that satisfaction, the court of law can not only, at the in stance of the woman, sentence him to marriage, but in case of disobedience execute the sentence whether he will or not. The decision having been published, the parties are summoned be fore the court, which has a clergyman in at tendance. If the condemned man refuse to say "yes" to the usual question of the marriage service, the judge merely says "yes" instead of him, and he is duly and legally married, any protest to the con trary notwithstanding. Some time ago a case actually occurred. A man was sued for breach of promise, and sentence of marriage pronounced against him, to be performed within six weeks. The summons to the Zwangstrauung or compulsory wedding, had been thrice issued, and the day fixed for the legal execu tion of the sentence, when suddenly an order from the Supreme Tribunal of Berlin quashed the proceedings and demanded a report from the Court of Greifawald as to the authority on which had issued such an impracticable decision. The report of the local authority was that the proceedings were based on the consistorial instructions of Charles XII., issued in 1705, revised in 1775, and still con sidered the rule of practice in the province, though no thing similar is known to the general law of Prussia. To section 3, cap. 2, paragraph 4, of these instructions the Supreme Court was referred for all the details of procedure, which, it is added, have never fallen into disuse. The Supreme Court was also Wormed that in the pro vincial code the question of common law, whether a compulsory marriage is permissible or not, had been answered in the nffirmative, and the mode of putting the law into execution was decided by prac tice ro ui f Afgi t hcw h eta a o t tirdt do, advisable ae t h t oe sentenceti tinestrroue issuepepotr tice and precedent. The Supreme Tribunal, not convinced of the wisdom of precedents in this case, 11., has instructions the n oo s ur it hfcf pronounced g ocaf e s d Ae ic op t fpe : :_l of against -' woukl, according to the practice of the District Court, have to be carried into execution by a compulsory marriage. But such a m+ asure is wholly repugnant to the essence of the matrimonial contract, which requires a free consent, the execution of the sen tepee therefore cannot be justified by any law.

Protec:ion was granted. IN RE LENERE. The bankrupt was a draper at Maldon. His ac counts showed debts, 1,4441., in addition to 3561. owing to the trustees of his children, who held security in the shape of a lease of certain property. The assets are 5821. This was the certificate meeting. Mr. Linkister supported; Mr. Ashurst opposed. After some discussion of a conflicting character, the Court deferred its judgment. (Befere Mr. Commissioner FARE.) IN RE MOODY.—JUDGMENT. His HONOUR said that the bankrupt applied for his certificate, and was opposed by only one creditor, Mr. relarrop. The case was a singular op% The bankrupt had carried on business successfully for many years as a park-butcher, in Goswell-road, and had gradually ac cumulated money, which he had laid out to considerable advantage in building societies, loan societies, &c. Had he confined himself to his regular business he would have continued to flourish, for even his present debts were only 6671., and his assets consisted of 7701. in good debts, and other property to the amount of 775/. Un fortunately for him, and probably some boasts as to the goodness of investments he had made, induced a friend of his, a retired stock-broker, to offer to advance him 5,0001, at 7i per cent. interest, 5 to be paid regulary, and ei to accumulate, which he accepted, and that led him more into speculations not connected with his business, and ultimately to the railway share market. About May, 1849, he had become acquainted with Mr. Harrop, who lent him (the bankrupt) 4001. on the security of some shares in the North London Loan and Discount Com pany. In June, Mr. Harrop advanced 6001. more, in July, I,OOGL, in October 1,0001., and in the fellowing year three small sums amounting to 4201. With these sums the bankrupt speculated in the share market, and the result was that in June last he became a bankrupt. Mr. Harrop's ground of opposition was, that the bank rupt had drawn him to advance the sums in question by telling him that they were to have been invested in loan and building societies, and that, notwithstanding that, he had used them for his share speculations with out the sanction or even knowledge of Harrop. The bankrupt stated that, although the first 400/. was ad vanced on the security of his interest in the loan society, and it was advanced at 71 per cent., he was at liberty to use the money as he pleased, and that several of the subsequent advances were made for the purposes of meeting losses on share transactions. He (the Com missioner) had no doubt that the bankrupt's statement was the true one. He had committed great fault in engaging in the share speculations, but there was no reason to believe that he was capable of stating tbat which was false. His statements throughout bad been characterised by candour and truth. He had never at tempted to disguise or palliate his offence, and he de scribed himself as having been, " in April, 1850, almost beside himself because the railway market was so de pressed." He said, " Harrop knew all along I was spe culating in the ;share market; he often saw my books, often talked about them, was with me three or four nights a week, and went on several occasions to my broker, and was in the consulting room when no one else was present, and beard us talk." Harrop denied that he knew anything about the speculations, but when he came to be cross- examined he was gradually obliged to admit that he did, and on one occasion, in his eagerness to avoid admitting that he knew that en illness the bank rupt had had was caused by distress of mind at his tosses, he asserted that the bankrupt had always told nim he was making money by railways, thus admitting, unintentionally, that he was cognisant of the share reansactions. But if any doubt could have been enter tained on that point it would have been removed by the evidence of Herrop's wife, whom he produced to support nis case, for she, when cross examined, said " the bank rupt often talked of railway shares; his head was full of nothing else." On the whole he had not the least doubt (hat Harrop knew perfectly well the use that was being made of his money. The ground, therefore, of opposi ,ion, that the money was professedly borrowed for a totally different purpose, fell to the ground. The other creditors offered no opposition, and would he believed give their consent to an immediate certificate, but his public duty forbid him to concede that. The least punishment he could inflict was a year's suspension, Eating from the bankruptcy, but the bankrupt would be protected from arrest. IN RE JOHN HUNT.—JUDGMENT. The bankrupt was a draper of the Edgeware road. His HONOUR said this was also an application for cer tificate, but the bankrupt was opposed by all his trade ;reditors on four grounds :--lst. That he ought to have stopped sooner; 2d. That he had made falserepresenta• ions as to the state of his affairs; 33. That he had pledged goods to the amount of 7,0001. and upwards shortly before his bankruptcy, at high rate of interest, without any chanee of redemption; and, 4th, That he lad sold his goods by forced sales at a loss of 1,000/. in 6,0001. shortly before his bankruptcy. He regretted to say that all the grounds of objection were established. It appeared that prior to 1847, the bankrupt had been in partnership with one Whalley, and in August of that year he was compelled to call his creditors together. His assets showed, as he stated, 1 le. in the pound upon debts amounting to about 28,0001.; his account ant, however, advised him to °flee. 125., which he lid; but when a committee of his creditors assembled, :hey unanimously resolved that not less than 13s. 4d. should be accepted, giving, however, the unsatisfsc tory reason, that although he had not been guilty of fishonesty, his expenditure was reckless; as it reck less expenditure would enable a man to fay a larger dividend. The bankrupt, however, weakly yielded; and that sowed the seed of his present insolveney. This con cession it was the Commissioner's public duty to con demn in the strongest way. It was his opinion, that the act of an insolvent in purchasing a secret, a hole-and corner settlement of his affairs, by undertaking to pay one farthing more thaw his assets were valued at, was nothing short of robbing a new body of creditors to over pay an old; and he wished the bankrupt and all other persons who might be in a similar situation to under.• stand, that whenever such a case . was brought be fore 'aim be should look upon it as conduct deserving the strongest reprobation. The course an insolvent ought , o pursue, when he found himself unable to meet his .ingagements, was to place himself and his books in the hands of his creditors, and to challenge the fullest in vestigation, and in the result to offer the largest amount of dividend he could honestly pay; and if that offer was rejected, instantly to throw himself on the protection of the court. The result of his weal; yielding had been that, having 15,0001 to pay 21.0001., ho had com menced his commercial career afresh with a bular.Le against him of 6,0001. in money, and the discredit of insolvency. The natural result was his present bank ruptcy. His next false step was that he had issued written balance-sheets misrepresenting the state of his affairs year after year up to December, 1850. The ex cuse off , red was that the statements were made for the information of a Mr. Carlisle, who had lent him 4,000/., purchasing an option to introduce a relation into the business it he thought fit, and he said that those sc. °Anita were framed not so much for the purpose of .howing his exact state as to show Mr. Carlisle wheAser wes improviag, and that being the object he as,umed originally as she basis of his calculation the valuation his creditors had adopted, and he had continued it .t,roughout that the accounts might be consistent; but the answer to this was that he accutually encouraged, or tacitly sanctioned, Mr. Carlisle going to the prin cipal wholesale dealers, of wham he was obtaining goods on credit, and showing them these accounts. He (the Commissioner) could not look upon this as any thing short of wilful deception, and a deception of the worst kind, because it was so likely to deceive. The next complaint was that he ought to have stopped sooner, and of this there could be no doubt. He had begun in 1849, 6,000/. worse than nothing, and gradually got worse rather than better, and in Nov., 1850, had found him self so pressed for money to make his current payments that he had been compelled to pledge 8001. worth of goods with Mr. Hart, of St. Mary-axe, to raise 4701. In April, 1851, he had pledged 5001. worth of goods in the same way with another person; and in May and June he pledged 2,000/. worth for 1.0501., 1,100/ worth for 490/.. and 4,0001. worth for 1,800/. ; and 011 all these loans he paid, as he said, from 15 to 20 per cent. inte rest. Besides this, he had made forced sales to the ex tent of 6,0001., at a loss of 1,000/,, between the 1811 January and Bth May last, and on the 4th of June he had stopped payment. How, under these circumstances, could the Court do otherwise ihan acquiesce in the view of the creditors, that he ought to have stopped sooner? What ground of hope had he of ultimate rescue, begin ning with a deficiency of 6,0001., and making such monstrous sacrifices to stave off the day of reckoning ? Looking, then, at his conduct in 1847, when he under took to overpay his existing creditors, which the Court could never regard in any other light than as a payment of trust money to an old existing body out of the pockets of a new body of creditors ; looking to his misstate ments to Mr. Carlisle, and his sanctioning the showing those statements to his other creditors ; and looking to his extravagant loans and forced sales in 1851, on the very eve of bankruptcy, the Court could not do less, to mark its reprobation of this conduct, than postpone his certificate for two years from the date of the bank ruptcy, but protection would be given. It was due to the bankrupt to say that his assets had realized upwards of 8,0001. in August last; the other assets 1 , , ad been re ceived, and that his debts tv-re ,ocae what loss than wh.3 he owed in 1847. His books appeared to have been accurately kept. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, Nov. 15. (Before Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS ) IN THE MATTER OF JOHN WILLIAM PEARCE. This insolvent, a dealer in j , weliery, &c, Oxford street, applied under the Protec;ion act. Mr. Nichols opposed for a creditor namcd Kelly. The case was remarkable for the bard swearing ex hibited. A tailor named Richolovir, in Red Lion street. and a person named Lewis, stated that they called t.n the in solvent about his acceptance given to a Mr. Shaw, who required it cashed, and he stated that he had received value for the bill in watches. On the faith of the state ment the bill was cashed. It now turned out io be an accommodation bill, The insolvent swcre positively that he had no conver sation with the witnesses. He had never sewn them, and that what they had'stated was false. Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS expressed h's horror at the shocking perjury committed. He should be obliged to follow the example set him in the superior courts, and order an indietweal for perjury. MONDAY EVENING, not b , , extended to this extreme point ; and the more cuitweary practice of the Court, which (-an authorise anything so unneard•of, cannot be regarded us having any legal validity. The District Court is therefore hereby exprealy 1)031cl - fen to proceed any further wi h the compulsory marriage service, in which the affirming word of the defendant before the clergyman p,-rfirmiug it must be spoken by the judge. "Royal Supreme Tribunal, (Signed) "'SIMMER. "Berlin, Oct. 8, 1851." The sensation caused in the legal circles of the pro vince rejoicing in this relic of Swedish legislation is described as tremendous. The " revolution from above" is sweeping away the most sacred institutions, the District Court of Greifswald is forbidden to con• tinue its venerable " usual practice," and the end of all things is at hand. The reporter of the case, how ever, thinks that the Supreme Tribunal of Berlin has done well in prohibiting a legal process of so extra ordinary a kind. It is astonishing it should have en dured so long, and that up to the Bth of October last it was possible in any part of the enlightened Monarchy of Prussia for a man (after being baptized perhaps against the will of his parents), to be married con trary to his owr.

" London: Printed and Pub the V 111 No. 112, Strand, Printer, , sav°l. Strand, in the Precinct olar lie lbw btiddleses, DiondsYl lioY ew J SOUTHWARK COUNTY COURT, Nov 15. This was an action brought by Mr. Arthur VVy,,ne against his sister-in-liw, the owner of a pie•sh“p near Astley's Theatre, to recover damages fur false im prisonment. Plaintiff said in March last defend.int's husband died, and his brother was sent for by defendant to arrange about an undertaker. Atter he had left her he heard that defendant had been stating that ho had stolen 30e1. out of the room where the corpse lay, and upon going and asking her what she meant by it, she repeated that she believed he had robbed her, called a police-constable in, and he was given into custody. He was locked up all night, taken before a magistrate on the following day, and remanded on bail; but on the second examine don he produced such evidence that the magistrate dis charged him. Mr. Parry, on behalf of the plaintiff, thought that the damages ought to be merely nominal, inasmuch as Or plaintiff persisted in being locked up. He called Mrs. Wynne, the d,fendant, who said that at her husband's death she was certain that a bag containing n, , ar 300/. was in the room where the plaintiff and his brother were. A fortuneteller told her that she had been robbed by a dark man, and gave such a description of him that she was satisfied it was the plaintiff. It having been shown that others went into the room, the jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages. 51, and costs. FORGERY ON A LOAN SOCIETY.-BRADMMY V. JAMES. This wa, an action brought by the plaintiff, sEcretary and manager of a loan society i❑ the Borough, to re cover 31, from the defendant, being the balance of a lo,n granted to a man named Laurence, for whom the defen dant was alleged to be surety with another. A person supposed to be the defendant signed the usual promissory note, tut the se3retary could not identify him, and it appeared perfectly clear that by some fraudulent collusion he had been personated b) another party. Plaintiff was accordingly nonsuited. POLICE INTELLIGENCE GUILDHALL Robert Fortescue Illockritl, a clerk in the employ of Mr. James Colqutoun, a s:oelthroker, of 1, Shorter's court, Throgmorton street, was placed at the bar fer final examination, before Sir It. W. Csrden, on varieus charges of forging and altering a number of cheques, with intent to defraud Messrs. Stone and Martin, the bankers of te , mbard-streer. Ile was also charged woh stealing a diamond necklace, money, and railway -harts from letters, and a great many other valuables, the pro perty of his employers. Mr. Hobler attended for the prosecution, and Mr. Humphreys for the prisoner. From the evidence a tduced on this and other exami• nations, it appeared that the prisoner, v 1 ho is but a mere youth, had ipe actised one of the most . xtensive and in genious systems of robbery that imagination cull de vise, or the most experienced adept put into operation. It being his duty to fill up all the cheques preparatory to their receiving Mr. Colquhouri's signature, he inva riably It ft a space between the margin of the cheque and the number of pounds in the writing, for the insertion of the word " twenty," which alteration he carried out in the figures by inserting a "2 " before the first figure in the p , unls, having previously left a space for that purpose, so that a cheque drawn for Si. on receiving Mr. Colquhoun's signature became 251. immediately it was delivered into prisoner's po6session to get csshed at the bank. This system prisoner commenced with the shillings by changing the enia into tens, and finding himselt successful he then tried the pounds, and it was impossible to detect it until the vouchers were returned from the bank, which in many intances were delivered to the prisoner for safety, and he destroyed them, so that Mr. Colquhoun was quite unable to estimate the total amount of the robbery upon him. Five chi ques were prcduced, drawn in the first instance for small amounts, but in each of which the prisoner had con trived to obtain 201., making a total in the five cheques of 100/. There were also a number of other cheques for various amounts, and to which prisoner had forged Mr. Colquhoun's signature and received the money for them from the bank. It was also shown in course of evidence that prisoner had abstracted money from let ters which prosecutor was directing to his wife, and that in order to conceal his depredations he (prisoner) intercepted a variety of letters written by and to Mr. and Mrs. Colquhoun, the latter living in Scotland at the time. The diamond necklace was traced to the pawn broker, where prisoner had pledged it. Prisoner admitted ev. rything, and after the whole of the evidence had been givral in detail, he was tally committed to take his trial at the next Old Bailey sessions. Mr. Hobler, at the conclusion of the case, said that at the last examination Mr. Colquhoun made a remaik, intimating that other merribe:s of the Stock Exehatz, were concerned in this trawaution, and that inquiry might lead to very serioui results. Au inquiry had been made, and Mr. Coluhoun way now satisfied that prisoner stood alone in his guilt, and Mr. Colquhoin, therefore wishrd to withdraw that obser•.tion, w. tci was uttered by him iu the t xciteinent of the moment, on ascertaining the great loss he had sustained, and information ho had since touud to be erroneous from th , prisoner's father, that others were concerned besides his son. Sir R. W.CARDEN said he was exceedingly glad to b , -qtr such a serious Imputation against so large a b tit rw.t, as the members of the St ck ExAange withdrawn, and he hoped the 1.., re,s, as Vey r , ported the aNserii,,n, wouki take notire of its vtithdrawa', so as t t rt.-niot.e the erre ticeius aid unpleasa,ut rr fl efloo tat it, had e,s! : u p," the gen:lemen of the Stock Exchmige. Mr. Mailer said, Mr C •iq thou(' regretted that had been led into s has yan v,,tiou aff cf ing the citaracters of so icu:.ny 1., Sp etoble traieseie;:. anxious t , at the ne opspers world ard he was eq.ialiy lend th Ir asisiunce in placing the matter in a Mur, fas , mrable light. David Thomas, who way discharged from this court a few days ago, for want of sufficient evichnce to sustAi, a charge of highway robbery that had been bri,ught against him, w Lis bought up ohargi d with .tealttig x great coats—thri,e 'rum die Queen's Howl, Sr. Marin', le-Grand, and three from a coffee -shop to Little Britain. —The prisoner was committed for trial. BO U'-STREET. George William Warman, a letter-carrier in tki.e General Poest-office, was briaight up for further exami nation, on the charge of stealing letters. The prisoner was, in the first instience, detected by means of a test letter, containing marked money, which he appropriated while assisting in the sorting depart ment of the Post -office. The remains of eight other letters were found, at the same time, in the basin of the wittor-closet, and the constable attera.ards discoverer a watch at the prisoner's lodgings which he had taken out of pawn in London, on finding the duplicate relating io it in one of the letters which he had opened. A gentleman in Cornwall proved that he enclosed the duplicate in question, with half-a-sovereign to pay the interest, to Mr. Sowerby, a pawnbroker at Holton, who3e assistant identified the prisoner as the person to whom he delivered the watch on paying the interest and principal. Mr. HENRY committed the prisoneefor trial in three separate cases. LAMBETH. George Talboys Browne, a young man of 21 years of age, and who is a compositor in the employment 01 Messrs. Bradbury and Evans, the printers in Whitefriars. was brought into court in the custody of Sergeant God frey, on a charge of violently assaulting his mother, from the effects of which she scon after died. Mr. Cliff ,rd, the relieving officer of Camberwell parish, stated that on that morning the prisoner's father applied to him, and requested his interference to place his son, who was in a lunatic state, in some place where he would be prop'rly restrained and taken care of. From the inquiries he (Mr. Clifford) had made he found that on the night before the prisoner had insisted on going out, and on his mother interfering he kicked her so vio lently that she died very soon after. Harriett.
