' It A. LONDON, FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1850. Addressing himself, during the sitting of Tuesday, to the Legislative Assembly of the French Republic, M. DE LAMABTINE, from the tribune of that great Parliament, delivered one of those brilliant and re markable speeches, whose rhetorical eloquence tends not less to enhance his reputation as an orator than their lofty principles and benignant sentiments are calculated to elevate his character as a statesman. The question under discussion was the completion of the line of railway (either by the State or by public companies) from Paris to Avignon. In this subject of debate it should be remembered that one of the grandest difficulties of the age was directly involved—that hitherto perilous and in scrutable; problem, the attempted solution of which has convulsed not only the political institutions of France, but more or less those of the entire-conti nent. It was thereupon decided by an enormous majority of representatives (443 against 205);• that the furtherance of national activity can be better ac complished through, the aid of private speculation than with the assistance of an exhausted exchequer and an embarrassed Government. Towards the ' arrival at this conclusion on the part of the Assembly, the masterly oration of M. DE LAaZARTINE—one of the most splendid effusions of his oratorical genius— proved eminently effectual, if it was not, in the ac complishment of that end, altogether, or - at - least mainly instrumental. _ _ By the closeness of its reasoning, as much as by the illuminating and persuasive brilliancy of its illustra tions—a blending of characteristics somewhat unusual in the poetical, and generally speaking, the discursive harangues pronounced by the lips of that illustrious citizen—the speech delivered on the 9th inst. by M. DE LAMARTINE could not fail to appeal directly to the heart, and through the heart to the convictions, —to the intellect, and through the intellect to the judgment of the vast majority of his auditors in the it?publican Parliament. It did so. The fruit of his logic was a majority. The result of his oration was a success altogether triumphant. What cannot but force itself upon the perception of the many thou sands by whom this nsagniticent harangue will be perused, is scarcely so much the sound sense impreg nating even the most poetical adornments of M. DE LAMAUTINE'S rhetoric—it i 3 scarcely so much the benignant sentiments and the majestic principles by which every sentence is beautified and exalted, as it is the daring evinced throughout by the orator in dragging forth into the glare of discussion the dirtiest and the grimmest phantasms by which the bulk of contemporary statesmen are affrighted. Sometimes it is true that the mind becomes fasci nated by the felicitous grace and exquisite delicacy of the metaphors, and generally also of the phrase ology by which the dry common-place of the theme is dexterously embellished ; as, for example, when the orator exclaims in illustration of the necessity of private speculation for the maintenance of national activity, for the circulation of mo- ney, for the encouragement of commerce, and for the continual employment of the industrial population : "when you wish for rain it is necessary to desire clouds, and the Reservoirs of Industry are to credit and to cash precisely what the clouds are to the rain which nourishes and fructifies the earth Yet, charming as are these intermittent testimonies that the orator continues still a poet even when most a statesman, it is by reason of other cha racteristics that our gladness is heated to the glow of admiration. It is at other moments than when "M. DE LAMAILTINE is most rhetorical, it is when his voice ascends to the elevated tone of its most im passioned eloquence, rising as it does then from the sonorous depths of his heart, from the profundity of his convictions, and from the fulness of his humane and cultivated imagination, that we listen with the more earnest attention to one whose career has been as illustrious as his character has remained unsullied. Then it is, in those moments of intellectual enthu siasm, that he grapples with the most dangerous ideas of our generation, and, as we have already expressed it, that he drags into the glare of discussion those sombre and destructive phantoms by which the rest of his contemporaries are dismayed and affrighted. In this circumstance we recognize a moral va lour and audacity worthy of the heroic tri- bune who confronted with his unarmed bosom the infuriated rabble of February. "Of what," he inquires in this mood, "is this doctrine of Communism composed ? It is composed of three elements perfectly distinct from each other : it is composed of the veriest chimeras, of doctrines which have been dreamed about during upwards of a thou sand years, and which have nevertheless been unable to survive three days of realisation ; it is composed, moreover, of certain evil passions which, notwith standing their malignity, can yet be easily re • pressed by the hand of society ; it is composed in fine, and above all (let this not be forgotten !) of very visible and real idleness, misery, and suffering. Behold the three elements of the social malady by which we are devoured ! Well, gentlemen, as to these evil doctrines, as to these dreams, as to these phantoms, as to these chimeras, do you wish for my opinion ? The more they shall be exposed to the broad daylight of the discussion of the press and of the tribune, the more rapidly shall these miasmas evaporate in the surrounding atmosphere of heaven—" [No marvel that these simple but noble words were greeted with acclamations ; o wonder that the orator was encou raged to proceed when he apologised for the necessity of repetition j—" I say, gentlemen, that as to these doctrines I would only introduce them into the light to dissipate their darkness; for the more facili ties you afford those miasmas to evaporate in the atmosphere of day, the more speedily will those phantoms vanish away from the gaze of the population. They exist not by their own valour, permit me to say, but by the terror which they inspire in the minds of men remarkable only for their timidity. Look them boldly in the face and they will all dis appear !" Such are some of the more striking passages in the splendid oration delivered, in the Assembly on Tuesday, by M. DE LAMARTINE— an oration in which he proved that the lightnings of his genius are not less luminous, and the thunders of his eloquence not less impressive, than in the days when he redeemed France from an inundation of bloodshed by his valour, and when, for three months with his bold and untremulous hand upon the helm of the Govern ment, he guided the vessel of the State through the tempest of the Revolution. Uninfluenced by the " three impressive warnings" they have received within the present week, we still find Ministers anxious to procrastinate and adjourn the consideration of necessary reforms. Although adn.itting the existence of evils requiring legislation, nay, although a particular subject is brought under the consideration of Parliatnunt, at the special in s'.ance of the Government itself, in which the present system is confessedly erroneous, the matter is coolly adjourned to " some future opportunity," which will probably arrive with "the Greek 'intends." When the Hon. Gentleman the Member for the county of Limerick offered his valuable suggestion the borough constituencies in Ireland, for' enlarging by 'adopting the principle already in force in Scot land and Wales, and uniting several of the smaller town s , so as to form a respectable body of approbation o felectorsi n every case, it was received wi from all sides of the House. N g ever, perhips, was greater unanimity apparent on any question of Yarlia mentv.ry reform. The Noble Premier himself attached much weight to the proposition, which then at least seemEd perfectly unobjectionable, and he voluntarily promised that the serious attention of the G,)vern ment should be directed to the subject. The Re formers were perfectly satisfied with the pledge thus freely given, and no step was taken by independent Members to press for the insertion of clauses embo dying the principle of Mr. MONSELL'S suggestion. The Government had taken up the subject, and that was all that could be desired. But " 0 coca niens mortalium," alas for human credulity! the Government have considered the point, and they have decided on— what—on postponing it for an indefinite period, and " carrying the Parliamentary Voters (Ireland) Bill through the Legislature in its present form," which, according to Lord JOHN RUSSSELL, will " give the House the opportunity of considering the question in a future session, should it be deemed necessary to raise it again" ! ! This kind and liberal act of condescension on the part of Ministers. " The House may have the opportunity of considering the question in a future session, should it be deemed necessary to raise it again" ! We are really astounded at the gracious permission thus afforded to the chosen representatives of the people. Be good boys, do as Au are told—do not torment your rulers by forcing on an inconvenient topic, and you shall actually be allowed to bring it forward at " some future sesaion," that is—for even that unpa ralleled concession could not be made without some qualification—" if it should be" deemed necessary to raise it again. In cur innocence we had heretofore sup posed that any question that " was deemed necessary" might be introduced without the sanction of Minis• ters being first had and obtained. But the First Minister of the Crown appears to think otherwise. A Government veto would be exceedingly desirable; it would prevent the possibility of any disturbance of the balmy and peaceful slumbers of the occupants of the Treasury benches. The complaints of the assistant- surgeons of the Royal Navy might then be treated with contumelious indifference ; the window-tax might still be maintained in all its enormity ; the delays and expenses of law would ba perpetuated. Justice would still be a dear luxury, beyond the reach of the less wealthy classes. But will the independent Members be satisfied to bow down before the Ministerial footstool, and to permit what they believe to be of great importance to the national welfare to ha' thus shelved. We hope and believethey will not do so. They, too, have learned a valuable lesson since the recess. They have seen the Ministerial phalanx—thirty-two in number—although assisted by all the" waiters on Providence," and seekers after p stron age —defeated, decisively and unequivocally defeated by en overwhelming majority of more than two to one. They have at length discovered their real power, and why should they not avail themselves thereof ? If Mr. MoNsELL's suggestion be calculated to benefit the country, if there be really ten boroughs in Ireland with small and inconsiderable constituen ciao, why should not adequate means be at once adopted for remedying the acknowledged evil? It is perfectly manifest that the Government will not be more willing to deal with the subject in an enlightened and liberal spirit on any fu ture occasion than at present. There can be no more fitting opportunity. The state of the Irish franchise is before the House arid the country. It requires a large and comprehensive measure of re form ; hut why should not the entire question be dis posed of together—why should there be a reform by piecemeal, or petty instalments ? It is true that the Parliamentary Voters Bill has gone through Com mittee, but it may be re-committed. Let Mr. MONSELL himself frame the clauses that may be ne cessary to effectuate his object ; he is perfectly competent for the duty. He will then obtain for himself the honour of the amelioration, to which he is fully entitled. Ministers, through their devotion to the laisser faire policy, have let slip the golden op portunity that was afforded, through the kindness of the Honourable Gentleman, of gaining for themselves the approbation of the Irish and—if the provision were extended to this country—of the English electors. )to further indulgence should therefore be shown, and the present 13111 should not be read a third time until the deliberate opinion of the House of Commons be taken on the question; and we doubt not that that opinion would be in accordance with the views of the Honourable Gentleman the Member for the county of Limerick. POST-OFFICE NOTICE.—Some misapprehension ap. pearing to exist with respect to the payment of the postage of letters for the Papal States, intended to be forwarded by the French Mediterranean packets, it is necessary to state that no portion of the postage upon such letters should be paid in this country, as the entire postage, British and fu• reign, is collected on delivery of the letters. BRITISH MUSEUM.—From a return made to the House of Commons, relative to various matters connected with,the British Museum, it appears that all the moneys re ceived by the institution, including various Parliamentary grants, from Christmas, 1848, to Christmas, 1849, was 50,5121. The estimated expenditure for the same period was 50,9091. The actual expenditure was 41,7911. The estimated charge, from Lady-day, 1850, to Lady -day, 1851, is 47,1921. The number of persons visiting the British Museum, from Christmas, 1843, to Christmas, 1844, was 575,758. In every intervening year there was a steady in crease in the number of visitors, until it reached, in the year ending Christmas, 1849, 979,973. In 1810, the number of visits made tb'the reading-room, for the purposes of study and research, was 1,950. The highest number any interven ing year was in 1812, when it was 71,796. Last year it was 70,371. The number of visits made by artists and students to the galleries of sculpture, for the purposes of study or re search, was 6,804. ROYAL SEA-BATHING INFIRMABY.—The general meeting of this charity took place yesterday, at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill ; Mr. Alderman Gibbs in the chair. It appeared from the report that the receipts for the past year had amounted to 2,4011., and the expenditure to 2,1371. The number of patients relieved amounted to 676, besides a considerable number of out-•door patients who had been visited. The cause of the present depressed position of this company arose principally from the prevalence of the cholera which had existed amongst them last year to a fearful ex tent. The retiring directors and auditors were re-elected, and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the business of the day. WzacuELszA.—The sagacity of a sheep dog be longing to Mr. Smith, of the Crutches Farm, was strikingly exhibited on the BOth of March. Some suspicion being ex cited by the appearance of a man coming from the direction of the farm-house with a box and a piece of silk, an over looker of the farm, Henry Burtonstock by name, desired his dog to get before him, which the faithful animal did so effec tually that he was stopped, taken back to the house, and handed over to a policeman for stealing from the promises. He was indicted at the sessions at Lewes on Tuesday, and sentenced to six months' hard labour, except three weeks in solitary confinement.— Brighton gazette. WDYMOUTH.—During the past week a number of coins have been picked up or. the Chesil beach by the islanders, some gold and others silver. We were shown some Chinese pieces, which were valued at 3Cs. each. Some were in excellent preservation, and others are much worn by the constant attrition against the pebbles. The heavy ground seas during the past week have no doubt washed them up. S het borne Journal. ST. MART, WHITECHAPEL.—The result of the poll for the election of guardians of the poor for this parish was made known on Wednesday, when the old guardians were declared elected. SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE.—The lessees of this theatre have announced their intention of giving a dramatic representation, in aid of the funds of the Exhibition in 1851, which will be under the patronage of his Royal highness the Duke of Cambridge. SOCIETY OF ANTIQUARIES.—The auditors' annual report was read last night before the society, by the Right llon. the Earl of Jermyn. It was highly satisfactory, both as regards annual income arising from fees, and as showing a surplus fund of nearly 7,000/. invested in the Three per Cent. theremoval m OAKoNoI of T aa larg e EE. Consols in the name of th e soc i ety. °IiLARGE last witnessed ß w E, e m ek olrA we L t p ree ll Igin the Oaks to Mr. Mason's new ground s a t G ra i s l ey . Thi s t ree TREE. — Dur i n g T (which is a remarkably fine specimen of the Turkey oak) is upwards of 40 feet high, the trunk is 45 inches in circum ference, and the branches more than 40 yards. It was well rooted, and had what nurserymen term a " good ball" of earth, the weight of the whole being about three tons. No proper apparatus for the removal of the tree could be pro cured, and the attempt was first made by a pair-wheeled timber carr i age, but this broke down in the attempt. A regular high-wheeled timber carriage was then procured, and by means o f triangles and pulley blocks the oak was fairly hoisted and moored. A new difficulty new presented itself; the ground having been recently drained, the wheels sunk deeply into the drains, and it required a stout team to haul the machine and its load cn to firm ground.

ROBBERIES ON THE EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY.—Io consequence of repealed complaintx made to the „authorities ou the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway of robberies of goods and of the breaking open of packages and abstraction of the contents, the management instituted an inquiry, but nothing was .discovered which could tat suspi cion on any of the people employed on the railway. Circum stances have, however, recently occurred, which have brought to light the guilt of a man named llayle, a servant in the truck department, and of another man named Smith, the manager in the same department. A search was made in their houses, and large quantities of property missed were discovered and identified. The police are still prosecuting their search, and it is supposed that much more property will be regained. The confidence that was placed in these men, and the opportunity afforded them from the positions they held on the railway, have enabled them to commit the depredations with great facility and without distrust. They have been sent to prison, and are waiting their examination before a court of justice. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER i 0 THREE. The sate s of Cott ont.tLivtrpool yesterday were esti mated at 1.0 000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for .expert, and 2,500 America,' and 1,500 Bahia on speculation. The market closed firmly with en up ward tendt-mcy in pricoL—Rlilway Shales were dull and heavy, wit a but little alteration in prices. The Corn-trade in Murk-Isne is exceodingly dull again to-day, and foreign Wheat is loser. The arrivals of f2reiga Wheat are 19 980 quarters; ( f Barley, 12,660 quarters; and of Oats, 47,280 quarters. This week the transactions is produce have not been of magnitude, and although a large quantity of Sugar &c., has .been submitted to public competition, this has not stimulated business, but rather inducei buyers to hold tack, unless some concession in price were made. The result has been a d, cline in the leading staples, and from the exceedingly numerous arrivals withi❑ the last three or four days, including vessels frorn all parts, and laden with Grain, Sugar, and every principal article, a rally in price is scarcely looked for, except in special cases. Certuin commoditits used for manufacturing purposes have been more inquired after within the last few days, and apparently in expectation that the slight revival of activity in Lancashire and Yorkshire may con tinue. The foreign arrivals comprise only the usual Conti nental mails. The Bank of the Pays 13as has declared a dividend of 3 per cent. The funds at Amsterdam were tolerably animated on the 10th inst., but the tendency of prices was slightly to decline. Spanish Bonds were lively. Peruvian were decidedly lower. At Frank fort, on the 9th inst.. Austrian Bonds were 794-, and Spanish hree per Cents 301. The llamburgh mail of Tuesday last brings the rat, of occhar.ge at 13 9, being lower. Bills on London were in request. The meeting of Mexican bondholders is now in pro gress, and the following explanation of the cause of the rupture and virtual dissolution of the new committee, to be succeeded, it is hoped, by a much stronger body, though it can hardly be by one that has worked harder, and :accomplished more within the time, is given by the seceder, M. Gucdalla:— ‘‘ Gentlemen,—Observing that the second report of the committee of Mexican tondholders contains no allu sion whatever to my resigeation, nor to the subject matter which led to i., I think it proper, in justice to myself, to address yon thereon, prior to the public meet ing, in order that )(Ai may be in possession of the facts of the case. Scme time back, Mr. Francis_ Mills, ore of my colleagues, feeling dissatisfied at the non ratification of the Robertson convention, up to that period, brought under the notice of the board the propriety f taking some immediat.? steps to secure, by legal proceedings in the United States, a portion or the :hole of the indemnity money still due by that country to Mexico. The board authorized that gentle. man, in conjunction with Mr. A. B. Richmond (to whom the bondholders are much indebted for the naluus aid he has always afforded them in his public and private capacity), to consult Mr. Hoffman, an American barrister of first-rate standing in this country and well versed in international law. After numerous inter views, a course of action was recommended to be adopted, the main point of which consisted in a sugges tion to send, without loss of time, an envoy to New Y( rk, with a memorial to his Excellency the President of the United States, from the bondholders, a copy of which is annexed, in order to intercept, if possible, that portion of the indemnity money which is due on the let of May next to Mexico. This measure was ap proved of by all the members of the board, except the chairman, Mr. William P. Robertson, and he did not give a decided negative to it at first but requested that the public meeting, necessary for a decision on the subject, might be postpone d till after the arrive' of the West India packet, which was expected at Southampton on the 25th March, as he anticipated some favourable intelligence might come by it, which would render the meetine. unnecessary. Such however not being the case, on Thursday, the 28th March, the committee yeas convened for the purpcie of deciding on which day it would be advisable to call a public me eting. Having taken a decided tone throughout all the discussions relative to the me morial, I deputed Captain Ross (being ucaviodably ab sent), should the question come to a division, to vote for me in fevour of calling the meeting on the Ist of April, being the latest day to which it could be post poned, as it was hecesiary that the envoy should sail in the packet of the sth inst. fur New York. Not having been present on the cccasion, I cannot give per sonally an account of the proceedings; but I hear from indisputable authority that a warm discussion ensued, in the course of which the chairman, who stood alone in his opinion, threatened to resign in ea: is the questien was decided in the affirmative. Nevertheless a resolution was carried, ordering the alvertisc rneht for the meeting to be inserted in Saturday morning's paper. When I came to town on Saturday morning, believing that the chairman and secretary had exceeded their powers in keeping back the advertisement, I de termined to resign ; and I ri quested Mr. A. B. Richmond to communicate verbally that fforn that time, Saturday, 30th March, I ceased to be a member of the board, feeling I had no other course to pursue under the circumstances. It must be evident to you that a board, constituted like the present, ought to be the last to assume to itself the deciding affirmatively or nega tively questions of such momentous interest to the bond holders without previously consulting them. "After these brief remarks, I have only to add a few words in conclusion. Being one of the principal parties who efficted so successfully the recent movement, I beg to say I have no wish to retire permanently from the management( f your affairs; on the contrary, I shall feel proud to continue zealously those humble services I have afforded yru since my election in January last, should you consider them entitled to your approbation. I h ale the honour to remain, gentlemen, your most obedient servant, "April 11, 18,50." "H. GUEDALLA."

The arrivals of English Wheat for our market, since Monday, having been on the increase, coastwise as well as by land carriage and sample, the supply of that grain on offer, this morning, was tolerably extensive, and of full average quality. Owing to the thin attendance of buyers,' and the pressure of Foreign Grain arid Flour, the demand fur all kinds of Wheat of hon.• produce ruled exceedingly heavy, at barely stationary prices. Nearly 20,000 quarters of foreign Wheat bale come to hand this week. The demand was wholly in retail, an d, to effect large sales, is per quarter less mone y must have been accepted by the importers. The supply of homegrown Barley was small, that of foreign large. Most kinds moved off ;Jowl at last vvek's currencies. Malt—the show of which was good— ruled dull in the extreme, at Limey late rates. Not less than 47,280 quarters of foreign Oats have been im ported this week ; but the arrivals of English are small. The Oat trade va3 heavy, and prices gave way 6d. per quarter. Beans, Peas, Indian Core, and Flour were offering at drooping currencies. 3,500 and nearly 10.000 bi.gm sold at 373 to 393 for fine and geod yellow, t:;;l34Rt 35s for low, at 32s to 34s for mid to fine brown, at 31,3 to 383 for low to fine f!wirgll urn bpen the cxt,rit of about 15,000 ba,;;s, and e t 6. to Is low , r, about h.

(Before Mr. JAMES.) 'FALSE I3IPRISONMENT.—JACOBS V. NAGRATH. This was an action to recover damages for Llse im prisonment. Defendant had suffered judgment to go by default. Mr. ROBINSON stated the case for the plaintiff, who has been for many years in the service of Mr. Howard, one of the Common Councilmen. Defendant is a soda water manufacturer, in Maze-pond, Borough. In the afternoon of the 221 February last defendant was near the Bridge-house Hotel, in the Borough, where a crowd had collected round a drunken man, and defendant stopped and had his pocket picked of his handkerchief, and suspecting the plaintiff, followed him over the bridge and gave him into custody of a City policeman; but In spector Torrens considered the charge to be groundless, and would not have detained the plaintiff but defendant persisting in the charge, the inspector sent the case over to Southwark, but at the sam• time told the officer to inform the inspector that there did not appear to be any ground for the charge. Defendant accompanied the officer a short distance on the road back, and then aban doned the charge. The jury gave a verdict for M. SCOTT U. HENCIISIA;.7. This was an inquiry under a special capias utlagatum to ascertain of what property defendant, who has been outlawed, wa possessed, in the city of London. The writ was directed to Messrs. Whittle and: Hil yard, and it was alleged that defendant was in possession of property in tl.e Bell's Weehy Messenger office, Bridge-street, Blaeldriars, but this was Lep,atived by Mr. Davies, a clerk in the establishment, and a return was made to that effect. BANKRUPTC Y.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner FANE.) IN RE BRADING. This bankrupt, who is proprietor of the Albert Sa loon, this day attended to consent to a fiat issued against him. It will perhaps be remembered that not long since a former fiat was superseded, on his undertaking to pay a certain sum annually, which he found himself unable to do. CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justicn ERLE and Mr. Baron PLATT.) FORGERY.— Wm. Baxter, aged 18, and described es a gun-finisher, was placed in the dock, indicted with feloniously uttering a forged note for 51, with intent to defraud the governor and company of the Bank of England. Mr. CLARKSON, in stating the case to the jury, said this prosecution had been instituted by the Bank of England, not only for their own protection, but fur the purpose of preventing the commission of frauds upon tradesmen, aid also preventing innocent parties becoming the in strument through which forged notes might be passed; and when guilty parties were discovered, it was tuxes- . sary they should be vi s it e d w i t h suc h a d egree o f punishment as to deter others from following their ex ample. The prisoner was charged with forging a 5/. note, was under 20 years of age, and as a native of Birmingham, and Jaa:l, up to the time of his apprehen sion, resided with his father, who kept a public-house at 296, Kent-street, Through. It appeared that on the 27th of F4' bruary last, about noon, he found his way to a public-house beloeging to a Mr. Compton, known as the Crown, in the Edgware road. Ile was alorie, and had with him a carpet hag. He wore a rough overcoat, and underneath it a green Newmarket one. On entering he called for a glass of sherry and cigar, which were sup plied to him, and he tendered a Si. note in payment. The landlord inspected the note, and his impression was ' so strong that it was a bad one that he refused to give change. The prisoner replied, " Oh! it is of , no conse quence, I know the person from whom I got it. The landlord, however,•thought it right to give him into cus tody, upon which the prisoner exclaimed, " You shall suffer for this." The account he gave of himself was that he had just come by the rail from Birmingham, but he afterwards said he had not been there for 11 3 ears. He also said he resided at 196, Kent-street, Borough, but on inquiry he war not known there. The note had written upon it, "Mr. E l li son, 6, Spring gardens, Charing-cross," who was the person from whom the prisoner tee rwards said he had received the note, but no such person had ever resided at the address. It was just possible that this note might have innocently fallen into the hands of the accused; but besides the false representation: which he bad made, there was another circumstance which tended to confirm his guilt. On the day previous to the occurrence be had just detailed, viz., on the 26th, the prisoner went about nine o'clock on the evening to the Marquis of Cornwallis public-house, in Marchmont-street, Brunswick-square, in company with a servant girl, named Emma Ripple, who was in the habit of fetching beer for the family. He requested to be supplied with two glasses of port-wine, and asked for change for a 51. note, but as the landlord, Mr. Dale, had no cash by him, he sent tie pot-boy to a neigh bour's to get it changed. The prisoner had with him identically the same carpet- bag which was taken from hint at the station-house. The instant the parties received change they left the house, but Mr. Dale- soon discovered that he had been the means of passing a bad note upon his neighbour. The bank authorities had made inquires respecting tie girl, and they had reason to believe that she was an accomplice, but in order that the counsel for the defence might not complain of the omission of important evidence, she would be brought forward as a witness. These were the facts of the case, and it was clear that the Bank of Fngland would neither have done justice to themselves or to the public if they had not instituted a prosecution against the prisoner. Several witnesses were then called, whose evidence corroborated the facts detailed by the Learned Counsel. A person from the Bank of England stated that both the note] wire forgeries, in respect of paper, plate, and signicuro. There was no water-mark upon them, but a resemblance to it had been ohtuined by pressure, instead of by a process in the manufacture of the paper. Mr. PAYNE, on the part of the defence, contended that no guilty knowledge of. the forgery had been proved against the prisoner. Mr. Justice ERLE having summed up, The jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen tented to transportation for fifteen years.

Boast STEALING.—James Simpson, aged 23, de , scribed in the calendar as a draper, was indicted with stealing, on the 26th of July last, a horse and cart, of the value of 1(3., the property of John Francis. From the statements of the prosecutor and other witnesses, it ap peared that on the 26th of July last the prisoner went to the house of the prosecutor, in Hart-street, Bethnal_ green, and statA that he wanted a horse and chaise-cart tor about two hours, for a person named Howell; the prosecutor suit his man with the prisoner and the horse and cart, they stopped at the house of a person named Howell, the prisoner got out, and appearing to go into the house, the prosecutor's man thought all w as r i g h t, and got out of the cart. The prisoner then drove off, and was never heard of till he was taken into custody last month for stealing ducks at T otten h am. It ap peared also that the prisoner ultimately sold the horse and chaise to a persou at Luton, iu Bedfordshire, for , V. Is. The jury convicted the prisoner. The REconmErt, after Expressing a doubt as to whe ther he ought not to transport the prisoner for fifteen years. sentenced him to two years' imprisonment and hard labour in the House of Correction. Shot tly after the prisoner had been sentenced a letter was sent to the Recorder, calling upon him to have two of the witnesses prosecuted, one for pet jury and the other 7.s a receiver of stolen goods. The R2corder, dinictel the party who had brought the letter to be placed in the witness box, and shortly afterwards a respectable-look ing female, vho had Lean one of the witnesses to the prisoner's character, appeared in the box. The RECORDER, add,essing her, said that if the COM munication che fa made to him was in the hope that he would mitiga:c the set;t7tee, she was very much df - ceived; and if any communication was made to bum from the office t,f the Secretary of State, he should at once tate that if the Court had made any mistake, it was in not transporting the prisoner. Joseph Hunter, 22, a respectable•looking young man, described in the calendar as a law writer, pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing 18 sovereigns, 3 half-sovereigns, 1 crown, 1 half-crown, 15 II shillings, and (Altar money, to the amount of 9. 51 ' prup c: ti of Evlarii zis , pc:ired from the s ;r te , r ,,,t s o f t h e ro g , e ,e ho hept a public •hou eat Gree:lwicT , , andilba t ;1-,o day on wh: c h th e ro bb ery was committed the !ii 2 , mer applied him f,.r c artme ti in his b uu sr, i.riaectuor agrcni to let, him.
