THE BRAEMAR HIGHLAND GATHERING. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) FRAN CE. We find the following in the Constitutionnel:—" In the absence of political events, attempts are made to circulate among the public, and more particularly at the Bourse, false news, which are afterwards turned to account with more or less skill. At one time it is the illness of the President of the Republic, at an other it is the sale of the Rentes arising from the savings banks. For the last few drys the talk has principally been of the issue of Rentes of the Colonial Indemnity, which were brought in abundance on the market, and forced down the prices of the public funds. The true state of the case is this :—There has not been yet a single title of rents delivered for the Colonial Indem❑ity, and consequently none could have been brought on the market ; and, we may add, that in consequence of the preliminary and necessary formalities, some time will yet elapse before the rentes awarded to the colonists can be delivered." We read in the Republique :—" The 2d company of the 2d battalion of the '2d legion of the National Guard had yesterday to elect several officeri. The reactionists, faithful to their tactics, were intriguing for several days to defeat the democratical candidates. They did everything to prevent the workmen from voting, but they failed completely. The democratical Republicans obtained a great majority. Citizen Binet was elected first captain ; Citizen Ilusso❑ lieutenant; Gosselin sub-lieutenant; Dechavannes sub-lieutenant; Chopin fourrier, &c. The royalists of the second arrondissement are, it is said, i❑ con sternation at this triumph." The Journal de Toulouse says that the President of the Republic is about to visit that city. SPAIN. Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived. The Herald° gives the following as the complete result of the elections :—Conservatives re-elected 160, Conservati ves new l y e l ected 130, Progressists re elected 10, ditto newly elected 4, double elections of moderates 19, ditto of Progressists 1, elections of the Balerean and Canary Ands not yet known, 13, elections null, on account of no candidate having ob tained the necessary majority, 12; total, 349. The moderate opposition, 44 in number, consisting of the dissident moderates and of what are called the Puri tans, have not obtained a single re-election. Th 4 ge neral result is an unexampled success for the Minis terial party. Count do Punonrostro, Grandee of Spain and Senator of the kingdom, died on the 7th. There were new rumours of modifications in the Ministry being intended on the return of General Narvaez. The Bth being Sunday, the Stock Exchange was not I open. GERMANY. Accounts from Hesse-Cassel of the 9th state that great agitation existed, but there had been no rising against the Government. The New Gazette of Hesse, a violent opposition journal, continues to ap pear in spite of the prohibition of the Ministry, and as its numbers could no longer be distributed by post, employed men to carry them out. The chief tribunal of Cassel had ordered the state procurator to take means of preventing the unconstitutional acts of the Government. The Communal Council of Cassel has I published a protest against the violation of the con stitution. The Grand Duke of Hesse Darmstadt has issued a decree, extending for another year the decree of Sept. 1849, against the abuses of the liberty of po pular meetings. Letters from Cassel of the 10th inst., in the Holner Zeilung, state that the Chief Court of the Electorate of Hessen has pronounced against the decree of the 7th instant, and against the late military measures which the Cabinet has thought proper to take. It is now to be seen whether the miltary will be made to act in opposition to a judicial verdict, but it is ge nerally believed that the Chief Court will be sus pended in all its functions. The Cabinet has en- , deavoured to impeach and procure the attachment of the Members of the Permanent Committee (of the Diet), but the Staats Procurator (Crown Advocate) has refused to take up the impeachment. M. Hassenpflug, who, owing to some want in the customary formalities, is not yet in custody, has summoned the four Commissioners of Police of the city of Cassel to place themselues at his disposi tion, but it is thought that the police will decline , accepting the proposal. The papers, which were suppressed by the military commander, have since appeared, though without license. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. A letter fr, m Hamburgh of the 10th, in the In dependance Beige, says :—" Some fighting took place these last two days in Schleswig, on the right and left wings of the two armies; whilst on the Bth, the centre of the Holstein army made a forward move ment beyond Breeckendorf to Jagel : its right wing, attacked by superior forces, was obliged to retreat, but having received reinforcements of several bat talions, assumed the offensive by repulsing the Danes as far as the walls of Eckernforde. At the same time its left wing was attacked by six Danish bat tkons near Suderstapel. The Holstein troops, forced at" retreat, received succes s i ve ly re i n f orcements by ''telarrival of several battalions, and at last drove `hick the ' • • -.as far as their entrenchments _of "Aeiriesi • • - These two affairs led to " nay result, and the two armies returned in the evening to their respective positions. The first corps of the Holstein Chasseurs appears to have suffered much ; nine carts transported the wounded to Heiden. The Chamber of Representatives of the duchies, con voked at Kiel for the 9th, was opened by a speech from Count Reventlow, member of the Lieutenancy- General. The Count announced to the representa tives that all attempts at peace with Denmark had successively failed, that power wanting to destroy by force of arms the independence and national rights of the two duchies. By the arrival of volunteers from all parts of Germany, the army was at present stronger than before the battle of Idstedt. The Lieutenancy- General took no part in the deliberations at Frank fort, and was not in official relations with any foreign power : the duchies being free from all foreign engagement, were decided to vindicate to the last extremity by arms alone the justice of their cause, and to maintain their national rites. By periodical gifts in objects of value and money from the German populations, the public treasury had been provided :with means of continuing the war; but in the impos sibility of fere3eing the end, the Lieutenancy-General reckoned on the patriotism of the Chamber to accord it all the subsidies necessary for the consolidation of the national independence. Although Schleswig is at present incorporated in fact with the kingdom of Denmark, all the deputies elected in that province have come to sit in the Chamber at Kiel. The for- ' mer President, M. Burgum, has been re-elected al- I most unanimously. It is the same person whose ardent democratical opinions and violent diatribe?, from his President's seat, against all the crowned des pots of Europe, I pointed out to your notice in 1849.' [The following appeared in our Third Edition of Saturday night :—] This annual Highland gathering, which was ori ginally fixed to take place last week, but which, at the request of her Majesty, was postponed until this day (Thursday, the 12th), came off with more than usual eclat. The weather was really splendid, and at an early hour the grounds in the vicinity of Braemar Castle began to assume a very gay and animated appearance. Precisely at three o'clock the carriages, containing the Queen, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and other members of the Royal Family and suite, arrived at the Castle, immediately followed by one containing her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, Prince Leiningen, and their suite. For a considerable distance from the Castle the road was lined with Highlanders, and as her Majesty drove up she received a right hearty Highland wel come. At the Castle gate her Majesty was received by the Duke of Leeds, Mr. Farquharson, of Inver cauld, General th e H on. Si r Alexander Duff, and Captain Forbes, and conducted to a seat which com manded the best view of the animated scene before her. The usual games of "putting" the stone, throwing the hammer, tossing the caber, &c., then commenced, and seemed to afford her Majesty great amusement ; but that which seemed to give the greatest satisfaction not only to the Queen, but to all present, was the foot race to the top of the high and remarkably steep bill which faces the Castle. Eighteen stalwart High landers started and mounted the steep aclivity in fine style, and the desperate struggle between several of the men as they ran or rather scrambled up the hill, afforded infinite satisfaction to all the lovers of High land sports and pastimes. After this race her Majesty and the rest of the Royal Family entered the Castle, and witnessed the dancing of Highland reels, Strathspeys, and the sword dance. The latter difficult one was executed by a son of Mr. Farquharson's, of Invercauld, in a very neat manner, and seemingly highly satisfactory to her Majesty. Shortly after this the Royal Family drove off for Balmoral, amidst the deafening cheers of the Highlanders and all present. A ball in the evening concluded the amusements, and was attended by most of the nobility and gentry resident in the country. Among the company on the esplanade of the Castle, exclusive of her Majesty and suite, and the retinue of her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, were the Duke and Duchess of Leeds arid the Misses Lane Fox, General the Hon. Sir Alexander Duff and Lady Duff, James Farquharson, Esq., of Invercauld, Mrs. Farquharson and family, Brook, Esq., and Mrs. Brook, J. L. Ricardo, E.g., M.P., and Mrs. Ricardo, James Duff, Esq., M.P., and Lady Agnes Duff, George S. Duff, Esq., M.P , &c., &c. ITALY, 1 ORDNANCE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. - Surgeon Davis has obtained one month's leave of absence. Assistant Surgeon Donnell, M.D., expects to be re moved to Hong-Kong. The LATE ENSIGN CROOKE.—We understand that the case of the late Ensign Crooke, of the 38th Re giment, has at last been fully brought under the at tention of the highest military authorities, so that it will now undergo a full and satisfactory investigation. THE LATE AFFAIR AT WOOLWICH ACADEMY.—A board of officers has been assembled at Carshalton, of which we believe Major-General Fanshawe, C. 8., Royal Engineers, wa3 President, and C'ilonel Jones, Royal Artillery, and Brevet Major Walpole, Royal Engineers, members, to investigate and report upon the case of three Gentlemen Cadets who were recently sent home to their respective families from the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich. The friends of the young gentlemen were invited to be present. We understand that a mass of evidence was received, but the result of the inquiry will not transpire until the proceeding.; have been submitted to the consideration of the Master-General. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. STRANGE DOINGS AT MIDDLEHAM.—A Middleham correspondent informs us that the moor has been infested by a legion of touts, and that a diabolical attempt to " nobble" The Flying Dutchman failed only through an accident. It appears that the training ground is rented by Mr. Fobert, by whom it is stocked with sheep, and that the shepherd, in looking over his flock on Monday last, had occasion to cross that part cf the ground on which The Flying Dutchman takes his long gallops, the other horses seldom going on it except for the purpose of sweating; in one particular spot where the grass was much higher than in any other part of the gallop, he found eight wooden " stobs," a foot in length, placed about two feet apart, driven firmly into the ground, and sharpened at the point. It was plain that some horse had placed his foot between them, but this particular spot had been altogether missed by The Dutchman, and thus, by the shepherd's timely dis covery, this most atrocious scheme failed. Mr. Fobert, we have no doubt, will endeavour to trace the matter to the fountain head, and should he succeed, will give us an opportunity of holding the authors up to public exe cration. MOVEMENTS AT NEWMARKET. ARRIVALS. At R. ger's: Ftdlissima, 3 yrs (h b). At Goodwin's: Filly by Auckland out of Diploma; colt by St. Francis out of Thorough-good Sam's dam, both yearlings. At H.

This fish is remarkable for the peculiarity of its form, and the great length of its dorsal and anal fins, which project directly opposite each other, and are united with the caudal, and thus surround the hinder part of the fish, Which almost appears as if it had been truncated. Its mouth is small in proportion to the size of the fish, with teeth so united as to resemble a solid mass of ivory. It is said that the sun-fish when swimming, from the silvery I whitness of their sides and their luminous properties, have also been called moon-fish. This, however, could not be inferred from the specimen which is here noticed, the upper half being of a rough dirty brown, and the under part a few shades lighter. The fish is rarely taken ou the English coast. —lpswich .Express. The provincial council of Ivrea in Piedmont has almost unanimously voted an address to th King, praying for the confiscation of Church property, and the abolition of convents. We learn by a letter from Florence that the death of Sir George Hamilton, the British Minister to the Court of Tuscany, took place at the Villa Normanby, the residence of Sir George Hamilton, during the night of the 31 inst. The immediate cause of death was the rupture of a blood-vessel in the chest, and the violence of the attack rendered the prompt assistance of his physician, Dr. Harding, and Professor Zanetti, who was called in, totally unavailing. Sir G. Hamilton had long suffered from a pulmonary conlplaint, but no immediate apprehensions were entertained of so sud den a termination of his life, as during the last year his health had materially improved, and within a few hours of his death he transacted his official duties as usual. He expired in the presence of his brother, Mr. Charles Hamilton, Lady Caroline Hamilton, his niece the Conitesse de Roubion, and her husband, Count de Roubion, and the Hon. Mr. Campbell Scarlett, her Majesty's Secretary of Legation at Florence. Sir George Hamilton's death is much lamented at Florence, not only by his own family, his servants, and those who were dependent upon him, but by all classes of society who knew him. The Costituzionale of Florence of the 6th quotes letters from Naples stating that seven generals of the army of the Two Sicilies have been dismissed from the service, and that many employes of the customs have also lost their places. The Giornale di Roma of the 4th announces offi cially that his Holiness has named a commission fur the purpose of establishing the rules to be followed by the manufacturers of Rome deiirous of sending arti cles of their own to the London exhibition. The corn mission is also to examine the articles intended for the exhibition, and to decide whether they are worth sending to London. The commission is composed of nine members—Prince Caetani is their president. THE ARMY AND NAY Y. (From the United Service Gazette) . MILITARY EDUCATION.—The Rev. Robert Gleig, Chaplain-General to the Forces, has returned to his official duties at the Horse Guards, having completed his tour of inspection of the garrison and regimental schools and libraries in Szotland and Ireland. STAFF.—General Sir Willoughby Gordon, Bart, G.C.B. and G.C.11., Quartermaster-General to the Farces, is on leave of absence at his seat in the Isle of Wight. MEDICAL STAFF.—Staff Assistant-Surgeon S wet tenhana, who was under orders for Jamaica, having been examined before a medical board, has been with drawn from the embarkation list for the present. Doctor Swettenham served for many years in Ceylon, both in the Ceylon Rifle Corps and subsequently on the staff. KILKENNY DISTRICT.—The riding -school at Clon mel is ordered to be converted into barrack-rooms for the better accommodation of. the soldiers. A chapel and school-room is also ordered to be con structed for the use of the troops at that station. DUBLIN GARRISON.—The 40th Regiment marched from their barracks in Great Ship -street to the Phcenix Park, on Wednesday last, and practised pitching tents. 25yu, OR KING'S OWN BORDERERS.--\'e under stand that Lieutenant-Colonel Young is about to re tire from the service by the sale of his commission, in consequence of ill health. BAD BREAD FOR TUE TROOPS.—Repeated com plaints having been made of the bad quality of the bread issued to the troops in Portsmouth Garrison, Major-General Lord Frederick Fitzelarance has di rected that the captain of the day and a medical officer, as well as the subaltern and quarter-master, attend every morning the issue of the bread to the men, in order that it may be supplied in strict accord ance with the terms of the contract, and perfect jsu tice done to the soldier. DESERTIONS IN CANADA.—We regret to learn that desertion to a great extent has taken place amongst the troops stationed in Canada, and that some of the regiments are in consequence considerably reduced below the establishment of their effective strength. Recruiting is being actively carried on to fill up the deficiency in the numbers. VVINCUESTER BARRACKS.—Workmen have been for some time employed scraping the stone-work of these barracks. Tne Ordnance are not often caught in expending money in decoration, but in this case upwards of 7001. is to be uselessly laid out on questionable decoration, for it is doubtful whether their appearance will be improved. Had half this sum been applied to the alteration of the antiquated windows, by the substitution of sashes for the pre sent swings, which admit little air to the small room, but prove most convenient resting- places for thick crusts of dust, permanent benefit would have been conferred on the soldier, by enabling him to enjoy light and air, from both of which he is now nearly debarred. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENINtI-, SEPTEMBER 16, 1850. of .Astley's, ho was a special favourite. Ile visited America shortly after the famed equestrian piece of Allazeppa came out at the euiphiitieetee ie 1831, aeil performed the hero, Mee eppa, fs)r 200 nights at the Bowery Theatre, New York, by which he realised a handsome sum in salary and benefits. While there he became intimate with a party of Indians, with whose habits and manners he so compleaely identified himself that when arrayed in their costume he was frequently taken for a native. Ile returned to Eng land with a party of six and their chief, Ma Caust, who acquired much celebrity for some months at the Victoria Theatre, then managed under Mr. Glossop, by shooting an apple from the hand and head of a boy with his rifle on the stage. The rest of the party exhibited their Indian feats, war hoop dancing, &c. A circumstance which placed the chief, Ma Caust, at the Old Bailey, for a criminal offence, took place, and Gale greatly interested him self in obtaining evidence to assist his Indian friend on the trial. The late Sir Augustus d'Este, son of the Duke of Sussex, who became acquainted with the Indian, took a lively interest also in the trial. The result was an acquittal, and shortly after that the late aeronaut was appointed to a . situation of inspector in the coast-blockade service in the northern part of Ireland, which department he held for ,nearly seven years. He returned to England to obtain from his patron, Sir Augustus, a removal to a more congenial locality in England ; but failing to do so, he declined returning to Ireland, and again embraced the stage at the City of London Theatre, with Mr. H onner . Th e altered state in which he found the drama, after so long an absence from it, ind uce d hi m to turn his ie a ntl u fi r c ed inl a rp t ose th s e Old Montp e li er and having h a d a balloon nhts manufactured scientific Grounds, Walworth, he made his first ascent at the Rosemary Branch Tavern early in the year 1848, ac companied by a Mr. Byrne. A few days after he ascended with a gentleman from Chertsey of great scientific taste—a Mr. Aylmer. On this occasion it may be remembered an accident took place, which caused great alarm for a short time in the minds of the spectators, and brought the aeronauts immediately down again. From that peri o d t o hi s unfortunate decease his career is well k nown . H e has made a great number of ascents in all parts of the kingdom, and excited more interest, flinch of it of a painful na ture, than any other traveller of the clouds that ever ascended. During his last French career he was ac companied by Mr. James Ellis, late of Cremorne Gardens, who made all arrangements till within a short time, when he had to return to England on his own business. He has left eight children, four or five of whom are yet too young to provide for them selves. He was most sanguine in all his undertak ings, and rarely thought of the consequences of any speculation in which personal danger was to be ap prehended. It is to be feared that his imperf ec t knowledge of the French l ang uage will be found to have been the cause of the dreadful catastrophe, as it appears it took place while giving orders to the pea sants who were assisting after he had accomplished his descent. Lieutenant Gale's professional career is thus given in " O'Byrne's Naval Biography," by which it ap pears he served 23 years on full pay : " Charles Gale entered the navy February 14, 1808, as first-class volunteer, on board the Mars, 74, Cap tains William Lakin, James Katon, John Surman Carden, and Henry Raper, bearing the flag at first of Rear-Admiral Richard Goodwin Keats, on the Baltic station ; where, and on the coasts of Spain, Portugal, and America, he continued to serve, in the same ship, end in the Niobe, 38, Captains William Augustus Montagu and Henry Celins Deacon, nearly the whole time as midshipma n , until 1815. He then succes sively join e d th e F ur i euse, 36, C apta i n William Mounsey ; Primrose, 18, Captain Charles George Rodney Phillott ; and Bermuda, 10, Captain John Pakenham, which latter vessel, while on her passage from the Gulf of Mexico, was lest near Tam pico Bar, November 16, 1816. From the occurrence of that event, and until again wrecked in Kingstown Harbour, Dublin, March 3, 1824, Mr. Gale further served, on the home, West India, and Mediterranean stations, in the Tigris, 36, Captain Robert Hender son ; Spartan, 28, Captain William Furlong Wise ; Pyramus, 42, Captain Francis Newcombe ; Severn, 40, Captain Willi am M'C u ll oc h ; an d D warf, Cap tain Nicholas Gould. During the period of his being borne on the books of the Severn, from 1820 to 1822, he appears to have been employed in the coast block ade. During the latter months of 1824 we find him serving on board the Meteor and Bramble, Captains James Scott and Thomas Favell. He was then pro moted by commission dated back to January 21 in that year. July 2, 1840, he was appointed to the command of a station in the coast guard." Aldersgate-street where the robbery was committed for the eurpose of plying- her trade on that heat. elieeraeau leeeteeis said, Hies greet suspicion was attached to the prisoner, but there was as yet no trace of the property ever having been in her possession. He would, therefore, remand her for a week, in order that the notes might he traced, about which there could be no difficulty, if they were in circulation, as the numbers were all known.—Remanded accordingly. BOW-STREET. Antonio It folteni; a native of Corno, in Italy, and a dealer in glass and china, was brought up in the cus tody of John Forrester and Leadbetter, the old Bow street officer, charged w i t h h av i ng in his possession 3,000 copies of notes purporting to be of the national bank of Vienna. Mr. Bush, of the firm of Bush and Mullens, solici tors to the Society of Bankers for the Detection of Frauds and Forgeries, attended for the prosecution, and in stating the case briefly said that the prisoner was found in possession of 3,000 impressions of notes of a part of the Austrian Empire, particularly of Lombardy, the value of each being five lire, and would be received in that country as a good tender, as they bore the name of the Imperial plenipotentiary, and were in value about 35. 41. of our money. The prosecution was instituted under the 19th section of Ist William IV., chap. 66, which enacts, " That if any person knowingly had in his possession any paper upon which any part of a foreign bill, note, under taking, or order shall be made or printed, every such offender shall be guilty of felony, and, being con victed, shall be transported for any term not exceed ing fourteen years, nor less than seven years, or be imprisoned for any term not exceeding three years, nor less than one year." Mr. Bush said he should produce evidence sufficient, he trusted, to justify a remand to a future day, when he would be enabled to make the charge complete. John Forrester, the officer, was then examined. He deposed that from information he had received he had watched the prisoner into the shop of Mr. Lee, an engraver in Holborn, and, on his coming thence, he followed him into Warwick-court. He had a paper parcel in his possession, and he stopping, asked him what the parcel contained. He replied, they were merely papers he had just got. Witness took him into custody, and conducted him to the station-house, where the parcel was opened. He asked him if he knew the nature of the contents, and in reply he said that a gentleman in Paris had directed him to obtain the papers and convey them to him ; he un derstood they were merely lottery tickets. He was shown one of the papers and was told that it was a forged note of the Bank of Austria, and that he would be called upon to explain the matter before a magistrate. lie then stated that he was a native of Como, and that he lodged in Brook-street, Holborn, and that he dealt in glass and china. Mr. HENRY cautioned the prisoner as to any ex planation he might give, and on being questioned by an interpreter he professed not to understand the English language. He said that as he was travelling in a dilligence from Mulhausen, in Switzerland to Paris, he met a gentleman with whom he was not acquainted, who employed him to get 3,000 impres sions, from a plate which he gave him, struck off without a stamp, for which he engaged to give him 100 f. All he knew of him was, that he was a native of Brescia and could not speak English. Mr. Bush said that the genuine notes, of which those produced were copies, were printed in Vienna by the imperial printers, and he had ascertained that Mr. Lee's bill for printing these spurious imitations, of which there were 3,000, amounted to 31. ss. Upon this point, however, he would reserve himself for a future occasion, when he would call Mr. Lee, whose explanation would be ample on the subject. He felt it due to say, however, that he altogether acquitted Mr. Lee of any guilty knowledge of the sinister in tentions of the prisoner. Vincent Bayer, Provincial Commissioner of' the Imperial Police of Vienna, engaged in the detection of frauds on the bank, looked at the note _ produced, but could not say whether it was a forgery or ge nuine. He should have assumed the latter, having the same form and :appearance of notes commonly circulated by the Lombard-Venetian Bank, which was called the National Imperial Royal Bank. It bore the signature of the plenipotentiary commis sioner, who was an officer of the Emperor of Austria, and whose name was Montecuneli. RodolphelFesenthue, one of the Chief Imperial Commissioners of Police at the Court of Vienna and reporter at the National Bank, said it was his duty to look at the notes of the Lombardy Bank with a view to ascertain their genuineness. Notes of a simi lar description to those produced, for five lire, were in circulation, and those found on the prisoner were so well executed that they were calculated to deceive the peasantry, and being of small amount would easily be circulated without detection. The interpreter having explained to the prisoner the nature of the charge against him, and that wit nesses would be brought from Vienna at a future day to prove that the notes found in his possession were forgeries, he said he was not aware that he had been committing an offence of so serious a character. He said he would obtain bail to answer for his future ap pearance, but this was refused, and he was remanded for future examination. LAMBETH. The case of Lieutenant _Frederick Rice Stack was again brought forward. Mr. Redpath, on behalf of Lieutenant Stack, in formed the court that Mr. David Hart, the bona fide holder of the bill alleged to have been stolen by the defendant, was not in attendance; and it was upon the express understanding that all the parties to the transaction should appear that the case was ad journed. Mr. Hawkins, who attended with Mr. Jones in support of the charge, contended that the evidence of the witness Palmer was sufficient to establish a case against Lieutenant Stack to send before a jury. Mr. NORTON said he was of a different opinion. He believed the instrument to be a forgery, and he should not detain the defendant unless Mr. Hart were pro duced, and the bill was proved to be a bonii fide transaction. Mr. Redpath observed that Mr. Hart could not plead ignorance, since Lieutenant St ac k, i mme di ate l y after he had been imposed upon, advertised in the papers, stating the circumstances, and cautioning the public against receiving any hill accepted by him. He was, however, exceedingly anxious that the mat ter should now be investigated. He wished to get Edward Hart forward, because, in fact, that person was no other than the man who had represented him • self to be the clerk of Captain Wilson, and who had procured Mr. Stack's signature, and he should then hand over Mr. Hart to the custody of an officer. This person lived with his brother David, at the house of his father in the Quadrant, Regent-street ; besides which he (Mr. Redpath) was prepared with proof that Edward Bart had been engaged in similar transac tions when Mr. Jones was his attorney. Mr. Hawking objected to this, and after an inves tigation that lasted some time, Mr. NORTON observed, that if there had been any doubt before as to the nature of the transaction, it was now removed. He did not think that there was any thing like a felony is the matter, and he should there fore dismiss the charge. SOUTHWARK. Robert Archer, alias Mes.vager, and F ranc i s D av i s, two well-known members of the "swell mob," were brought up for final examination, charged with as saulting Alfred Greenland, clerk to Messrs. Sanders and Co., wholesale cheesetnongers, Colliogwood street, Blackfriars-road, and robbing him of a bag containing 3754 in gold and silver and Bank of England notes. Prosecutor deposed that a little before ten o'clock on Thursday morning, the 22.1 ult , he left his em ployers' counting-house with a bag containing 3751., for the purpose of depositing it in the South wark branch of the London and Westminster Bank. He accordingly proceeded across the Blackfriars-road and down Bankside; but as he was entering a pas sage leading to St. Saviour's churchyard he was sud denly attacked by the prisoners and another man, who knocked him down. While on the ground Archer wrested the bag from him and ran away. Witness soon recovered himself and went in pursuit of him, and a few minutes afterwards Archer was captured with the bag and money in his possession. The other prisoner and his companion made their escape. Mr. Wood, a salesman in the B (rough-market, said he was passing at the rear of St. Saviour's Church at 10 o'clock on the morning in question, when he saw the prisoners and another man loitering about the passage. Having some suspicions about their inten tions he went up a corner and watched them. He shortly afterwards saw the prosecutor approach, when Davis called out " Here he comes," and before he could get ou t o f hi s hidi ng - p l ace the prosecutor was knocked down and Archer possessed himself of his bag and money. Witness instantly pursued and caught him in a passage out of which there was no egress. They then had a severe struggle, but even tually he was secured and taken into custody. The other men made their escape. Sergeant Wright, M division, said, he went in search of the other inen, and a week afterwards saw the prisoner Davis and his companion leave a house in St. Andrew's-terrace, Waterloo-road, and enter a public-house close by. He followed them and ap prehened Davis, while Sergeant Jones took the other. On the way to the police-station the latter suddenly attacked Sergeant Jones with a life-preserver, and in the uproar niasle his escape. Witness had seen him since in the House of Detention, where he was re manded from Bow-street under a charge of house bred( ing. The depositions of all the witnesses were taken, and the prisoners were fully committed to New ate fur trial.

SHOCKING MURDER IN ESSEX. R , MECIID, FRIDAY. --An ii ee; to-day on the body of a female child, four :y ears of age, named Elizabeth Flail, whose throat was cut by her own mother on Wednesday. Mr. Thwnes, from the office of Mr. Smith, 15, Wilmington-s quare , L on d on, attended to watch the proceedings on the part of the accused, and objected to the evidence being taken in her absence, of which the coroner took a note, and reserved the point. The following evidence was given : Toomas Young, 10 years old, sworn, said, at half past four on Wednesday afternoon I was close to Mrs. Flail's door, in Nelson-place. I saw the chili go in at the back door. I saw that Mrs. Phil was th-n sitting upon a chair. I saw her take up a razor from the table, and heard h er ca ll th e c hild to her, and take the child up in her lap and cut the child across the throat,from the right ear round to the left. She then chucked the child up nearly as high as the ceiling, and rolled it down again upon the floor, under the sofa. She then chucked the razor at the child, and went and sat down on the sofa. There was no blind to the window. When the child was first thrown up she rolled down under the sofa. She pulled the child from under the sofa, and took it up a second time and threw it up again to the ceiling, and then it rolled behind the door. When she chucked the razor at the child she took it from the chair. After she had killed the child she opened the front door and said " Let's loose the stink out." Eliza Rich, wife of John Rich, of the Barrack ground—l live in front of Nelson-place, fronting to the road. On Wednesday evening, about half-past four, I was sitting in -doors, and heard Mrs. James make alarm. I ran out and she said to me—" Oh, Mrs. Flail has murdered Margaret." We both went together to Airs. Flail's house. I then saw the child lying between the two doors on the floor, with its throat cut. I saw the razor on the floor. I said to Mrs. Flail, " On, Mrs. Flail, what have you been doing ? " She made me no answer. I then ran out. The child was quite dead. When we got to the house she was sitting on the sofa doing nothing. There was a great pool of blood lying near the child. She was very fond of the child. She has not been well for a fortnight. When I spoke to she looked very wild. Her eyes looked very fierce. She kept looking at the child, and never took her eyes off it ; and when I questioned her she did not seem to understand or notice it at all. I live close by, and have had frequent opportunities of seeing her ondnees for the child, which was very great. I never knew of her ill-using the child. Mr. John William Potter, surgeon, Roinford, said, on Wednesday last a woman came to me and said that Mrs. Plail had cut her child's throat. I went and examined the child. It was a deep clean cut wound in the throe, four inches across ; it was nearly from ear to ear, and I should think two inches deep. All the vessels of the throat were severed. It was such a wound as would be inflicted by a razor, or some sharp instrument. Cross-examined by Mr. Downes—l had attended the mother for a low state of hypochondriacism from the 2d of September down to the day of the murder. She was in a very low state. Had disordered liver, which will produce lowness and depression. After the murder I felt her pulse, and found it a b out 120. She was very ex c it e d. I asked her if she felt any pain, and she put her hand to her head on the top. She made me no answer. The CORONER, in summing up, stated that the pro vince of the jury was to ascertain and say how the child came by her death—that there was no doubt Mrs. Pail committed the act. He then directed the jury to find a verdict without reference to the state of mind. That was a question for the jury at the trial, and not for the present jury. The jury returned the following verdict :—"We find that the child Margaret Flail was killed by the hand of its own mother, Esther Plaid "—one juryman dis senting out of thirteen. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal.) At Wheal Russell they have cut into the lode in Richard's engine -shaft ten ft., from which some fine ore is raising, and they expect to sample 25 tons in a fortnight. They have pitches set at 75., 103., and 13s. 41. in 11.: 10 fins. deeper they expect to cut al junction of two lodes. At Wheal Crebor they have made a great improve ment lately in the 40 end, west of Rundle shaft, and the mine generally is looking very well. Spearne Consols continues improving. In the 116 frn, level they have a course of tin worth 601. per fin. Improvements have also been reported at the Calling ton Mines and the Camborne Consols. At Wheal Gennys they have intersected the lode in the 20 fin. level, where it is 6 ft. wide, worth one ton of lead per fin. At South Wheal Josiah they have discovered a new lode at the surface, from 3 to 4 ft. wide. At Phcenix Mine, the 110 fm. level continues highly productive, the two monthly sales giving a profit of upwards of 1,0001. The Wheal Mary Ann report that in Barratt's shaft, which is sunk 8 inns. under the 60, the lode is worth 221. per fm.; the 60 south is worth 121. per fin. The lode in the GO, north of Pollard's shaft, is worth 20/. per fin. The lode in the 70, south of the boundary, is worth 141. per fin. The monthly sale (40 tons) of Kirkcudbright ores realised 10/. ss. per ton. From the Welsh mines, in the county of Cardigan, the reports are highly encouraging. At Daren the lode in each level is remarkably productive, carrying rich cour s es o f ore i n t h e levels generally. Cwal Erfin is looking well in the 20 fm. level, where there is a good lode, worth 14 cwts. to the fathom. At the Lisburne they are producing large returns; the mine is generally looking well, especially in the 90 west, where the lode is yielding 2 tons of ore per fathom. The next sampling will be nearly 300 tons. Court Grange is coming into good working order, leaving large reserves. The sampling in future will be gradually increased. At Cwinystwith they have recently cut a fine lode in the 36 fin. level east, yield ing 3 tons of ore per fathom. At the Alt-y-Crib Mines a very important discovery has been made. The solid rocks of ore broken are more than 2 cwts. in a stone. At Bryntail Mine they are in capital ore ; and, from present prospects, there is every ap pearance of continuance. At Goginan the 120 fa:a level, east of Francis's shaft, is greatly improved ; the lode is 4 ft. wide, and yielding 2 tons of ore per fin. 80 tons of lead ore were sampled on the 10th inst. Since the introduction of British machinery, under the new tariff, for mining purposes, the progress in mining adventures throughout the mineral districts of Spain has been most rapid, and some very important explorations have recently been made in localities which, although known to be rich in ores, had been abandoned for th e wan t o f proper engines for drawing off the water, which facility they now have at their disposal. During the last eighteen months various roads have been cut in the mountains, either by Go vernment or private speculators, the want of which was one of the greatest drawbacks to adventurers. The Government affords every encouragement in its power for the development of the mineral riches and industry of the country, by taking off to the greatest extent the restrictions and imposts which formerly weighed so heavy upon the miner. The Duke de Rianzsres, the consort of th e Q ueen -M other, Donna Maria Christina, has lately purchased some very valuable mines in the environs of Valladolid, Oviedo, the Asturias, and Biscayc, which he intends work ing on a large scale, by the assistance of machinery, and a great many Cornish miners have been engaged for that purpose. Perhaps in no part of Spain are the well-known mines of Guadalaxara surpassed for the richness of their ores, and from the last official returns published by the Royal department of Mines, they aro rapidly increasing in the yield as the works progress. Here machinery is used, and they are ex plored by experienced Cornish miners, who, with their families, form a little colony ; and although dis tinct from the natives, the most cordial and friendly intercourse exists between them, without that national jealousy towards foreigners so characteristic in the Spaniards. As machinery and the working of the mines, and other improvemetnents progress, so will the demand for British coal and implements increase. According to the official return, no less than 240 English vessels have entered the ports in the Asturias, and other parts of the coast in the mineral districts, laden with Newcastle coals, during the first quarter of this year, ending in June last, and large quantities have been contracted for. Although coal is to be found in many parts of Spain, it is of an inferior quality compared with the British, and not suited for steam machinery. The principal mine proprietors intend sending over specimens of their ores to the ex hibition of 1851, and every branch of Spanish indus try will be displayed at that competition of all nations. THE COUNTRY MARKETS. LIVERPOOL, SEPT. I4.—Prices to-day remain un changed. MANCHESTER, SEPT. I4.—Since our last report the trade has maintained a steady tone, and a fair consump tive demand has been experienced throughout the week for both choice fresh -made flour and oatmeal, without variation from the currency of the preceding market day. With the exception of a moderate quantity of oats and oatmeal the arrivals from Ireland to Liverpool and Runcorn aro main exceedingly light, whilst about 2,000 quarters Of malt comprise nearly the whole of the sup plies coastwise. From abroad the imports of wheat and flour are large, but of other articles extremely scanty. At out market this morning much firmness was exhi bited by holders, and the sales made of both wheat and flour were at fully, and in some instances, for approved marks of the latter article, rather over, the prices ob. tainable on this day se'nnight. Oats sold slowly at pre vir;u3 rates; but oatmeal, both old and new, was in steady request on fully former terms. REARING, SEPT. 14.—Wheat, old 40s to 51s; new ditto, 42s to 5s ; barley, 23s to 275; oats, 153 to 20s ; beans, 28s to 30s; peas, 27s to 32s per quarter. Fat hogs, Os Od to Os Od; porkers, 09 04 to Os Od per score. Poultry—Teyvls, DEATH OF LIEUTENANT GALE, THE AERON AU r. The Courrier de la Gironde of Wednesday gives the following details of the death of Lieutenant Gele : —" Mr. Gale, who ascended from Vincennes, at a quarter past six, descended at a quarter past seven in the commune of Cestas, on a narrow spot of ground situated between the property of M. Palauque and that of M. Balguerie. Seven or eight peasants, who were at work in the neighbourhood, ran and laid hold of the balloon, the grapnel of which had caught hold of a fir tree. In a few moments the balloon was lying quietly on the ground, and the horse was disengaged. The legs of the poor animal were completely be numbed, and it immediately lay down. It soon afterwards, however, recovered itself, and rising up, began to eat the grass as if nothing had hap pened. At this moment the wind was blowing rather fresh, and the balloon, which the efforts of the peasants could scarcely restrain, having been' freed from the weight of the horse, acquired a con siderable ascensional f orce . Mr. ale, who was very quick in his movements and very impatient, gave di rections to the peasants which were but badly under stood by them as he spoke in English. The aeronaut had quitted the car, and was engaged in fastening some ropes of the balloon which had served to attach the horse, when, from some o r d er m i sun d erstoo d b y the peasants, they let go the rope which held the balloon. The balloon thus freed, ascended in a perpendicular line, and the branch of the tree to which the grapnel had fastened broke. At this moment Mr. Gale, who was standing up, was thrown down into the bottom of the car by the shock. Thi3 fall, added to the escape of gas, caused by the prodigious ascensional force, must have stunned and suffocated the unfortunate man, for he was not seen to rise afterwards, and he was no more visible to the people assembled. The balloon, in this second ascen • sion, went about two miles, but what took place during this period no one can tell. A peasant of Cestas pretends that, as the balloon was passing over a fir grove, he distinguished the aeronaut lying down in the car, his head hanging over the side with the tongue protruding from the mouth, as if he had been suffocated. If such be the case, a slight shock would be sufficient to have thrown him out of the car, and this account appears the more probable, as a hole was made in the bottom of the car through which Mr. Gale ascended when leaving the horse. We must, for the sake of the truth, mention that, at the moment of his first ascent, Mr. Gale was not per fectly sober ; he had taken more than his usual quan tity of spirituous liquor, and his state of excitement was such that Mr. Clifford was alarmed, and proposed to ascend in his stead. This proposition was, how ever, rejected, and Mr. Clifford expressed his appre hension to several persons present. At eight o'clock the son-in-l aw o f M. L estange found in a field the plume of white feathers with which the head of the horse had been ornamented, and which Mr. Gale had taken off it and stuck in his own cap. Oa receiving this information, some persons, Mr. Clifford amongst the number, went to the place where it was expected Mr. Gale would have come down in the commune of Cestas, and after a long search the balloon was found in a field be yond the Croix d'Hinx still half full of gas. It was not torn, and everything was in its place, but no trace of the aeronaut could be found during the evening. After some investigations, and as the night was far ad. vanced, Mr. Clifford proposed to empty the balloon and to carry it back to Bordeaux, thinking that Mr. Gale, not seeing any one near at the time of his de -con, left the balloon to go in search of assistance in some of the houses near, and where he would stop for the night. Inquiries were, however, in ide at some of the houses, but no one had seen him. On the follow ing day, Monday, the searches for him were resumed, but without avail. Yesterday the Procureur of the Republic received a letter from M. Pelanque stating that the body of the unfortunate man had been found on his estate at Cestas. It appeared that at break of day an inhabitant of the Commune in taking his cows to their pasture saw one of the animals proceed to a clump of ferns. and begin smelling at something lying there. He went to the spot, when he was horrified at seeing the body of a man, the face completely eaten away by dogs and wild animals, and the limbs in a broken and mutilated condition. The place where the body was found was upwards of a mile from where the balloon had been discovered. Information was immediately given to the proper authorities, and they proceed to the spot and drew up a proses verbal of the affair, and the body was carefully re moved. At eight o' c l oc k i n t h e even i ng it was taken to Vincennes preparatory to its being in terred."—The Memorial Bordelais of the same day gives a somewhat different account of the cause of the death of lir. Gale. It says :—" At nightfall Mr. Ga!e effected his descent between Pessac and Martignas. He hastened to release the horse from the ropes which attached it to the car, and by his expressive gestures (for he could not speak French) he explained to the peasants who had assembled that they were to keep fast hold of the ropes which held the balloon. When he supposed that his wishes were understood, Mr. (kale ejain got into the car, in order to open the valves and empty the balloon as promptly as possible. Finding some part of the cordage impeded his move ments, he drew a long knife from his pocket to cut it, when the peasants, not knowing the use he was going to make of the weapon, and alarmed at his excited manner, all at once let go their hold. The balloon, relieved from the weight of the horse and a portion of the ballast, then rose again with prodigious rapidity, carrying with it the unfortunate aeronaut suspended by his hands, which clutched one of the ropes. The position was frightful. Only the energy of despair could have prolonged it for a few instants. Mr. Gale no doubt must have soon lost his hold and fallen from a great height." Tile following particulars are from other sources : This was the first occasion the late Mr. Gale ever ascended with a pony, and it was a little remarkable that, prior to leaving England, he expressed himself in terms strongly disapproving of the absurdity of the thing. When the French aeronaut, Poitevin, went up on a horse's back, and more especially when Mr. Green ascended with his Lilliputia❑ nag, he was recommended to try the same draw. He, however, objected, urging as his reason fordeclining, that there was nothing novel in the experiment, as it had been done years ago, and, furthermore, that much pain must necessarily be occasioned to the brute that went up. With such a strong objection, therefore, it was thought that he could never have bsen induced to make what is termed an .equestrian ascent Accompanied by Mr. Goulstone (who has a large share in the balloon), and Mr. Gaulstone, jun., the deceased aeronaut lest London a few weeks since to make a series of ascents from Paris, Bordeaux, and in Spain, at the rate of 901. an ascent. We are informed that the conditions did not impose upon him the ascend ing with a pony; that is thought to have been a new stipulation. No trifling inducement probably was of him to make such an ascent; and money being everything to the poor fellow, he overcame his ob jections, and lust his life. Although he was nut a very old aeronaut in practice, he was a very hazardous one; and by introducing that perilous feat of descending from an upper car to a lower one, and discharging a battery of maroons, he obtained considerable notoriety. The Allowing is an extract from a letter received from Mrs. Goulstone, the wife of Mr. James Goul stone, fl )orcloth manufacturer, of Marlborough -ter race, Old lif-!nt-road, and proprietor of the Royal Cremorne Balloon, who, with his san, Mr. Arthur Goulstone, accompanied the aeronaut on his Conti nental excursion : "Bordeaux, Sept. 11. "Poor Gale is no more The cause of his death was as follows:—He made a❑ ascent on the Bth, mounted on a horse. All went off quite safe ; and he made a descant at a place called Auguilles, where the people (all French) inform 113 they secured the hal lo , n with ropes, taking off the horse, and requesting Gale to get off; but, not undersanding what he said, they endeavoured to pull him off by furce, but being in a great rage, he made them let go the balloon by taking out his knife to cut himself loose, when he shot up with great force. He was afterwards found quite dead. After our first day's search I offered a reward for the dhcovery of his body; but I must not now enlarge, as I will write all particulars after his funeral, and you must use your best mode of in forming his wife and family of his death, so as to prevent their being shocked by reading the accounts of it in the English papers. Please inform Mrs. Gale that I am getting the freemasons and the public generally at Bordeaux, to raise a subscription for her and her family's benefit, and intend making myself an ascent in the balloon in two or three days. The Mayor of Bordeaux, Monsieur A. Fleury, has pro mised to attend the funeral, at the Protestant burial ground." The melancholy news reached Vauxhall Gardens on Saturday evening, through the medium of Mr. Wie land, watch-maker, of the Walworth-road, and Mr. Graham, the aeronaut, and Mr. Robert Wardell, the lessee, with his usual kind feeliog, immediately of ft-red the "Royal Property" for a free benefit for Mra. Gale ; Mr. Wardell's generous intentions were communicated to Mra. Gale by Mr. T. R. Lewis and Mr. James Ellis, late lessee of Cremorne Garden., at which a benefit is also advertised. Lieutenant Gale was in his 59th year. The life of the unfortunate deceased was not with out many peculiar incidents, two or three of which may be read with painful interest at this moment. Gale was a native of London, and early in life exhi bited much aptitude for the dramatic profession, in which, while he continued to belong, he made a most respectable progress, prfo - ming such parts at the Victoria (then the Coburg), Astley's, and; the Sur rey theatres as were termed the juvenile characters, with occasionally the tyrant in the Eastern spectacles. He was remarkable for his skill in snaking up, as it is technically termed. With the late Andrew Ducrow, POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION--HO USE. On Saturday Cornelius Merritt, a well-dressed boy, was charged with picking a lady's pocket of a purse containing eleven sovereigns, a half-sovereign, and some silver. Mrs. Kent, of Princes -place, Kennington-road, said, as she was passing near London-bridge on Fri day, at half-past five o'clock, a man touched her shoulder and said, " You have been robbed, ma'am." A boy had just pushed against her, and was passing on. She put her hand to her pocket and missed her purse, which was the one produced. The lady de scribed the money the purse was found to contain. The prisoner—l never took the purse. I was pas sing along, and a big boy chucked down the purse. I picked it up, and then they took me into custody as though I bad stolen it. The lady can't say she saw me steal it, does she? Edward Williams, a labouring man, said—l was coming up the steps at London-bridge, and saw the prisoner and a man together. The boy raised up the lady's gown with one hand_and whipt the lady's purse out with the other. The prisoner—Why, be said there were four of us about it yesterday. I know I had nothing to de with it whatever others might. Spittle, the officer, lB 9 :st i i n d th h e e a h c a t d of the apprehen dedstealing a pu prisoner in July, 4 rse, containing two sovereigns and some silver, and the boy was then convicted and sentenced to three months' imprisonment. Alderman Gipps committed the prisoner for trial s and directed that the certificate of the former con viction should be produced at the trial. GUILDHALL. JaneTrzteman was placed at the bar on Saturday before Alderman Challis, charged with stealing a pocket-book containing two 1001. Bank of England notes, one 20/. ditto, °Lie 101. ditto, and one Si. ditto, a cheque for 3G/. 155., and 71. 10s. in gold, from the person of Mr. John Winpenny, woollen manufac turer, at present residing at the Castle and Falcon Aldergate-street. John Winpenny said he was lodging at the Castle and Falcon, and on Sunday night last, between ten and eleven o'clock, he was passing down Aldersgate, near the Post-office, when be was met by the pri soner, who accosted him in a very familiar manner and commenced fumbling about his clothes. Directly he stopped to speak with her she ran away, and a mi nute or two after he found that his pocket-book was gone. He was certain that the pocket. book and money were quite safe a few minutes before he saw the pri soner. He almost instantly called out to her, and finding she quickened her pace immediately pursued her. She coughed in a very significant way, and a man who had been hanging about for som e ti me near the pri soner crossed straight before prosecutor and en deavoured to trip him up. She got clear away, and prosecutor went to the station-house, and gave in formation of the robbery with a description of the pri soner, by which she was afterwards apprehended in com pany with several other women of loose character in the Southwark-bridge -road. On Friday afternoon the police called upon him (prosecutor), and informed him that they had a woman answering the description in custody at the Smithfield police-station. He went down to identify her. He, however, said he would not swear positively that she was the party for five tines the amount of money, but he believed she was. There were two notes of 1001. each, one of 201., one of 101, and one of 51., of all which he knew the numbers. There was also a cheque fur about 371. On being. cross-examined by Mr. Wontner, who ap• peered on bshaif of the prisoner, he said he was not sure that she h a d t h e same bonnet on when he first saw her; the shawl he was also doubtful about. Ha was not more than two minutes in her company. He wanted to get "shot" of her, but she clung to hi m and followed h i m as f ar as the hotel door. He went in and she pulled him back. He thought he was a fool for letting her. She had the same form and style, with her round face, black hair, and blue eyes, and he considered she answered the description "capitally." lie was requested to see the prisoner twice at the station-house, in order that he might be better able to identify her. On looking at the prisoner again he could identify her more fully in consequence of a remark he had made to her that she was in the family-way, to which she re plied that she was not aware of it. lie "guessed" he was quite sober at the time. Henry Barry, 455 A, attached to the M said that about half -past three on Friday afternoon he met the prisoner in the Southwark-bridge-road, and told her he wanted her on a charge of robbing a gentleman of about 2501. in notes and gold, in Alders gate-street, on Sunday night last. She said that she would go with him, but she knew nothing of the robbery. He took her to the station house, and she was searched, and 7s. 7i, 1. was found upon her; but no trace of the notes or the checque was d:scoverel Oa the prosecutor declaring that she was the party who had robbed him, she said she knew nothing what ever of him, and that he was charging an innocent person. She gave her right name and address, and witness searched her lodgiegs, but found nothing of a suspicious nature.
