MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—Sept. 19. The sittings of the court for the September general sessions were resumed yesterday morning at the Guild hall, Broad Sanctuary, Westminster, before Mr. Ser jeant Adams, Assistant Judge, Mr. Witham, Mr. Au gustus Robinson, &c. The number of prisoners committed for trial was 103, of which number 94 were charged with felony, and 9 with misdemeanour. Leon Nathan, 34, a Frenchman, was indicted for having stolen 43 sovereigns and other moneys, belonging to Solomon Joel, in a dwelling-house. This case was remanded from last session, the pri soner having, when arraigned, availed himself of his right to demand to be tried by a half-foreign jury. Mr. Woollett and Mr. Taylor appeared for the pro secution : the prisoner was undefended. The prosecutor, a foreig,nsr, but well conversant with the English language, c arried on the business of a chi ropodist, and lived at No. 9, Poland-street, Soho-square. It appeared that he and the prisoner were on inti mate terms, and the latter was a constant visitor at the lodgings of the former. The prosecutor had 431. 10s. in gold and 7s. in silver in a purse, in a drawer, about half an hour before the prisoner entered his bed-room, but immediately after he left he mi , sed it. Without de lay he communicated his loss to the police at the Vine street station, and telegraphed a description of the pri soner to Liverpool, having reason to believe that he would make for that place, and he then took a cab and went in the direction of a pawnbroker's shop, where the prisoner had pledged a number of gold watches, and on the way he met with the prisoner in another cab. On see ing him the prosecutor charged him with the theft, upon which the prisoner drew a knife and said in French, " It's either your life or my liberty," and, opening the door on the other side of the cab, he jumped out and made his escape. On going to the pawnbroker's he found that the prisoner had redeemed six gold watches for 241. 10s., the whole of which sum he paid in gold, and one of the sovereigns was the identical cracked one which the pub- lican refused to give change for. The prisoner was apprehended when he went to redeem the case of instru ments, the pawnbroker having received information, and on his being searched seven gold watches, the case of instruments, two sovereigns, and 17s. Bd. were found upon him. In his defence the prisoner handed in a long written statement its French, which was read to the court by an interpreter. It was a rambling attack on the prosecu tor's character for morality. His answer to the charge, as well as- it could be gathered, was that it was an in vention premeditated by the prosecutor, who was aware that he was about to redeem his watches, and, with reference to the cracked sovereign, he alleged that he received it from the prosecutor's own hands as the price of a pair of razors and some articles which he sold to him. The Assistant Judge having summed up, The jury found the prisoner guilty, and The Assistant Judge sentenced him to one year's hard labour. John M‘Donald, 21, convicted at the last session of housebreaking, was brought up for judgment, and the court sentenced him to be kept in penal servitude for four years. James Elands, 19, pleaded guilty to indictments in which he was charged with having stolen a telescope, a sovereign, a half sovereign, and other moneys, th e pro perty and moneys of Sir James Smith, and three gold mourning rings, the property of John Ayrton Paris, M.D., his master and employer. Sentenced to six months' hard labour. DEFRAUDING THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY COMPANY. William Cagby, 34, and William, Skinner, 33, were indicted for haying stolen three sacks of coal, the pro perty of the Great Northern Railway Company. Mr. Cooper and Mr. O'Brien prosecuted. Mr. Horry appeared for the prisoners. It appeared that the prisoner Cagby was a carman in the employ of Mr. Wiggins, contractor to the Great Northern Railway Company, for the delivery of coal, and Skinner was what is called in the coal trade " a trouncer," to Cagby. On the 17th of August they left the King's-cross station with four tons of coal to deliver at the residence of the Earl of Jersey, for the use of the kitchen. They took the van down a mews to shoot the sacks at the proper place, and it happened that Sir Alexander Cockburn, the Attorney-General, had stables there. Sir Alexander's groom, a man named Beard, never having seen either of the prisoners before, ob serving them delivering coal at Lord Jersey's, very coolly walked up to Cagby and asked him if he could spare him a sack. Cagby, evincing not the least indisposition to enter upon a gross piece of roguery, at once replied in the affirmative, and took one sack to a loft over Sir Alexander's stables, and there shot its contents. The groom having succeeded so far, asked Cagby if be could spare him more, and Cagby complied, and in like man ner delivered two other sacks. This was all observed by the Attorney-General's under groom, one Mason, who having had a quarrel with Beard, told Lord Jersey's porter of the matter, and the porter told Lord Jersey, and Lord Jersey the company. Cagby received the full price from Lord Jersey's servant for four tons. Beard rewarded him with 3s. and a pot of beer. They were apprehended on the 27th of August. The jury acquitted Skinner and found Cagby guilty. They recommended him to mercy on the ground that he had been led into temptation by the witness Beard, whom they thought ought to be strongly reprimanded. The Assistant Judge agreed with the latter part of the verdict, but not with the recommendation. He did not think a man entitled to a recommendation who could so easily be prevailed upon by a total stranger to commit a very serious robbery and breach of trust. He then sentenced Cagby to nine months' hard labour, and with regard to Beard said his conduct was detestable, and his expenses would not be allowed. William, Streton Sturgis, a well-dressed man, aged 27, was indicted for embezzling three sums of money, amounting to 131. 3s. 6d., which he had received for and on account of Charles John Stewart, his master. Mr. Clarkson prosecuted ; the prisoner conducted his own defence. The prosecutor was a bookseller in King William street, Strand, and the prisoner had been in his service, as clerk and cashier, for about seven years and a half, his salary for th e l as t th ree years an d a h a l f b e i ng 21. per week. Suspecting that something was wrong, Mr. Stewart fixed a day for an investigation of the accounts, and when that day arrived the prisoner told him he need not enter upon any such task, and then admitted that, during the last four years, be had robbed him to the extent of from 3501. to 400/. The prisoner had been married about that time. The prosecutor nevertheless went on with the investigation, and the result was that he found that the total amount received by the prisoner and not accounted fOr was over 6001. The prisoner left town, with Mr. Stewart's knowledge, but subsequently it was discovered that he had forged his master's name to a cheque on a City banking-house, for a sum remitted to them from the country on Mr. Stewart's account, and that the same proceeding had been taken with a post office order. Upon this Mr. Stewart caused the prisoner to be apprehended, and on the case of forgery being gone into before a magistrate it broke down, and the prisoner was sent for trial on three charges of embezzle ment. The prisoner, in cross-examining the prosecutor, ad mitted his defalcations, and endeavoured to show that Mr. Stewart had condoned his offence, and had made the matter one of debt. Mr. Stewart denied this, and said he certainly had no intention to prosecute him for the embezzlements, and the cause of his being taken into custody was the disco very of the forgeries. Prisoner=What was the reason the case of forgery broke down ? -- . Prosecutor—The reason was given ' this. The magistrate thought th a t b ecause I had .vou a general au thority t o co ll ect and receive money for me it w as no forgery f or you to sign my nametoa banker's cheque, and get the money and keep it. The Assistant Judge remarked that that certainly was an extraordinary decision, a n d now i t was ment i oned he recollected noticing it at the tim e i n th e newspapers. Mr. Clarkson e surprise when hehe certainly held up his bands with heard it at Bow -street. The Assistant he Judge said that it was as much as say ing that because a person a general authority to receive money on hvhie7s account, it was no forgery for that person to write at his to a cheque for all the money be might have The prisoner, evident' is banker's. jurc.a The of education and talent, addressed the *tcte substance of what he u m n ade the thing a debt, said was, that Mr. Stewart h upon him that he and that it arose very hard and should now be pcuted. He aditsttt the tota but Mr. Stewart, he repeated, had treated t he deficiencie s, lu at ry ed not to give amount as a debt due, and he asked the r d ebt, but at full credit to that gentleman's evidence. Mr. Stewart said he never treated it as a the time he had no intention of prosecuting for the em bezzlement. The jury found the prisoner guilty. The Assistant Judge said the case was one of th e grossest he had ever witnessed. lie sentenced the Pri soner to be kept in penal servitude for four years. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT —Sept. 19. OLD COURT. Joseph. Legge surrende P r E e ß d j t U o ßT ae his trial for misde meanor. The circumstances under which the present charge was was preferred were fully detailed uponthe trial defendant two or three sessions ago, Pon which occa sion he was convicted, but judgmentw u a was afterwards a ßa rd l s ia r o e : re spited upon a technical objection taken by tine, who then appeared for the defendant , _ to the form of the indi c t men t. Th e d e f en d an t, it will be remem bered, carried on, in partnership with his brother, the business of an upholster at Pimlico, and upon their be coming bankrupts their debts to different creditors amounted to 1,300/. and upwards. They appeared to have h a d littl e or no capital when they commenced business, and upon the creditors causing an inquiry to be made it was ascertained that a very large quantity of property had been removed to a house in York-place, Southampton, which was occupied by a person who went by the name of Marshall ; and upon the defendant being examined at the Bankruptcy Court, after having made the usual declaration required by the statute, he stated in his examination that this Marshall was a per son whom he had only known for a short period, and that lie was a speculator and had advanced him money at different times upon the security of the furniture that had been placed in his possession. It turned out, how ever, that Marshall was the father of the defendant, and there appeared no doubt that the p roperty had been placed in the house at Southampton with the object of ultimately defrauding the creditors of it. The present indictment ern s preferred against the def endant for hav ing f a fALe statement b* -e r i .7 THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 20, 1853, prior to her death, at Palace-place, Kensington. She had had five children by her first husband and three by Hays, but only two were alive. She had not lived with her husband for the last 18 months. She did not be lieve that deceased had received a penny from her hus band since they had separated. On the contrary, Hays had taken her clothes from her, and had left her desti tute. Since he had parted from his wife Hays had been living with another woman at Notting hill. Hays had frequently ill-used the deceased, and had often threatened to kill her. The Coroner—Do you blame any one on account of the death of your sister, Elizabeth Hays ? Witness—Yes, I do. lam sure that Hays was the murderer of my sister ; and I blame the woman that he was living with, for I believe she incited him to it. Edward Lines, the husband of this witness, and con sequently the brother-in-law of the deceased, added that he had often seen Hayes beat his wife. The Coroner then summed up the evidence. The room was then cleared, and the jury remained in consultation about 20 minutes, when they returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against James Hays," ap pending to it the following words :—" The jury express their hearty thanks to Viscount Palmerston, Her Ma jesty's Secretary for the Home Department, for his sup port of the privileges of the Coroner's Court, as evinced in his assent to the request that the accused person might be produced before them ; and they hope the Le gislature will soon perceive the necessity of providing by special enactment for the production of the accused before coroners' juries, as they consider not only that it is essential for the ends of justice, but that the coroner's court is insulted by that privilege being withheld." The Coroner then made out his warrant for the com mittal of James Hays upon the charge of wilful murder. Immediately after the close of this inquiry, all the witnesses appeared before Mr. Beadon, the magistrate at the Hammersmith police-court, when the depositions previously made by them were read over and signed. Two additional witnesses were examined—Mrs. Ren nell, who deposed that she spoke to Hays on the night of the murder, and that she told him that she had seen his wife at the gate, to which he replied that it would be the last time ; and Denis Daley, the landlord of the house in which the prisoner resided, but he equivocated SG grossly in answering the questions put to him that Mr. Beadon indignantly ordered him out of the witness box. The prisoner, a good-looking, fresh-complexioned man, with light blue eyes and fair hair, apparently about 35 years of age, stated that he was so tipsy upon the night of the murder that he remembered nothing of what had occurred. He was about to add something to this state ment when Mr. Beadon cautioned him that whatever he said would be taken down, and might be used against him. Acting upon this caution, and the advice of his soli citor, the prisoner said nothing more, and he was there. upon fully committed for trial for the wilful murder of his wife. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 19. Her Majesty's screw yacht Fairy, Master-Comman der Welch, was taken out to Stokes Bay by Captain Crispin, R.N., second in command of Her Majesty's steam squadron, this morning, to make an experimental trial of a newly shaped screw, patented by Mr. Scott, of Bristol. Two runs along the measured mile only were made with it, which were quite enough to show its in efficiency as compared with ogler inventions. The first run only realised IPO4O knots, and the second but 11.141, with 36 revolutions. This was a great contrast to the Fairy's performances with other screws, she having realised 12 . 888 knots. The patentee was on board, as were Mr. Murray, superintendent of the steam department in this dockyard, and Mr. Miller, assistant. The Victoria and Albert was taken out of the north dock to day, and placed under the shears of the steam basin, to have her boilers, &c., removed. The Encounter, 14, screw corvette, Captain O'Cal laghan, is undergoing a thorough refit in the south dock. She has sent her topmasts on deck and is stripping her lower rigging. The Stromboli, 6, paddle steam sloop, Commander Hall, commenced swinging to-day in this harbour fur the adjustment of her compasses. The Vivid, steam mail packet, Master-Commander Smithett, came into harbour this morning from the east ward, and, having taken in coals, left for the westward, to attend upon the Lords of the Admiralty. WOOLWICH, SErT. 19. APPOINTMENT. Midshipman Richard Livesay, to the Arab, 12, sloop, at Chatham. It was inadvertently stated yesterday that Mr. M'Der mott and Mr. Gray, clerks of 1850, had been appoipted to the Impregnable flagship at Devonport, when it should have been to the Imaum flagship at Jamaica. Commander the Hon. Arthur A. Cochrane, one of the officers examined at Woolwich on Wednesday and Thursday last, after going through a course of study of steam here, is a son of Admiral the Earl of Dundonald, G.C.8., and has only recently returned from foreign service, where he was employed on the West Indies and North American station in protecting the Ssheries on the coast of Labradore and in the straits of Belleisle. The House of Assembly, Newfoundland, was so pleased with the conduct of Commander the Hon. A. A. Cochrane that they passed a vote of thanks to him, one instance only having previously occurred of a vote tl an officer of his rank being given. It is generally believed that Admiral the Earl of Dun donald will be appointed successor to the late Admiral Sir Charles Adam as Governor of Greenwich Hospital. BANK RETURNS.

Thejury without any hesitation returned a verdict of guilty, and the defendant was sentenced to be impri soned and kept to hard labour for twelve months. William -Henry Wheels. , surrendered to take his trial for wilful and corrupt perjury. This was a prosecution instituted by direction of the Judge of the Westminster County Court, under the fol lowing circumstances : The prosecutor was Mr. Joseph Perry, the landlord of the One Tun public-house, Chandos-street ; and it appeared that on the night of the 4th of June the defendant and a man named Edwards were at his house, and having partaken of some gin, Edwards tendered in payment for it a sovereign, and the prosecutor gave him change in silver money, a portion of which consisted of two five-shilling pieces. On the follow ing Monday Edwards went to the prosecutor, and re presented that one of the five-shilling pieces given to him by the prosecutor was a bad one. Mr. Perry was positive at the time that he ha 1 given him good money ; but upon his pressing the matter, and repre senting that he was a very poor man, he consented to give him half-a-crown as compensation for his supposed loss. This half-crown was afterwards returned, and it appeared that a summons was taken out by Edwards against the prosecutor in the Westminster County Court to recover five shillings as the value of the c ounterfeit coin, and upon the hearing the defendant was called as a witness, and he swore that he received the counterfeit coin from Edwards, and that it was the same that had been paid in change for the sovereign. The prosecutor positively denied having paid away the counterfeit piece to Edwards, and evidence was adduced to show that on the Saturday night on which the occurrence took place, the defendant purchased the bad crown piece of a but. cher named Taylor, living near the prosecutor, who had taken it the same night, and that he gave Taylor a shil ling for it. Several highly respectable witnesses gave the defendant an excellent character f or a period extendin w g i t over aastgrr strong n a g t many years. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, h recommendation to mercy on account of the previous good character of the defendant. Judgment deferred. NEW COURT.-SEPT. 19. ROBBING AN OMNIBUS PROPRIETOR. John Berries, 60, clerk, was indicted for stealing 731. 14s. 9d., the property of Thomas Wheatly, his master. The prosecutor is the well known omnibus pro prietor of Greenwich, and had, out of motives of charity, taken prisoner, whom he had known before, from the union, and gave him employment as a clerk. He had been with him some time, when the money in question coming into his hands to be paid into the bank, he absconded with the cash portion of it, returning by post a crossed cheque. B e was traced to Lille, in France, by Sergeant Carpenter, who, b e i ng unprepared with the Secretary of State's warrant, was not allowed by the French authorities to bring either the prisoner or the money found upon him (nearly the whole of the amount taken) back to this country. It. however, appeared that the authorities at Lille, who detained prisoner for having a false passport, set him at liberty, and a few days ago Carpenter took prisoner in custody at Westminster. The jury found him guilty. It was proved that prisoner had been before convicted at these sessions, and sentenced to l 2 months' imprison ment for obtaining by false pretences sums of money in aid of the Animals' Friend Society, which had then long been defunct. He was now sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. CLEIIKENWELL. —ASSAULTS UPON WOMEN. Yesterday morning many unfortunate women were to be seen about the court with features betokening the handiwork of heartless ruffians. It was altogether a sickening sight ; many of them, however, went away, rather than appear as witnesses against their brutal as sailants, perhaps to fare more sadly on hearing the de cision of the following cases : James Macklin, described as a watch-glass maker, residing at 23, Hull's-place, St. Luke's, was charged with an inhuman assault on his wife, whose face was frightfully disfigured with cuts and bruises. The front of her dress was besmeared with blood. She stated that on Sunday evening her husband came home drunk, and began abusing her in a savage man ner. She appeased him a little, and fed him with some dinner, when on a sudden he pushed her from him, struck her down with a blow over her right eye, caus ing the blood to flow, and afterwards, while she was prostrate on the ground and altogether helpless, he beat her on various parts of the body, blackening it with almost every hit or kick. She called for assistance, and her mother coming to her aid was knocked down by the prisoner with a poker. In answer to the worthy magistrate the poor creature said that " she had borne her husband six children, three of whom were principally dependent on her exer tions for sustenance, for she had very little help from him. The mother in part corroborated the complainant, and proved the brutal attack on herself. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the prisoner his defence. In a surly manner he answered, " that he had none to make." Mr. Tyrwhitt said, " these cases were truly lament able, and it was impossible to go on in this way. He had hoped the law as it now stood would have dimi nished such outrages, but every day experience showed an increase of them." He sentenced the defendant, for the two assaults, to hard labour for four months. ichael Kelly, a raw-boned Irishman, was next charged with assaulting Catherine Holmes. Cjinplainant said, she had cohabited with the pri soner, and had been his support for a considerable time past, by pawning her clothes and other worse means. She had no money on Saturday night, and for that rea son he knocked her to the ground and blackened her eyes. - Mr. Tyrwhitt observed that " words would be wasted on such a vagabond," and sent him to the treadmill for two months. TIE ALLEGED MURDER at SHEPHERD'S-B USA. Yesterday, at the Jolly Gardeners, Hammersmith, Mr. Brent, the deputy coroner for the western division of Middlesex, resumed and concluded his investigation into the circumstances attendant upon the death of Elizabeth Hays, which, it will be remembered, had been attributed to the brutal ill•creatment of her husband, who was alleged to have murdered her on the night of Saturday, the 10th inst., in the immediate vicinity of Shepherd's-bush market. Although nearly all the evidence which it was pro bable could be adduced in the case was brought forward on Thursday last, when these proceedings were com menced, the Coroner suggested at that time that an ad journment should take place, as it was possible that in the interval some additional evidence might be forth coming ; and he was, moreover, desirous, if it could he accomplished, that the prisoner should be present, and that the depositions of the various witnesses should be read over , n his presence. • Mr. Marten attended to prosecute, and Mr. Pound, from the office of Mr. Russell, appeared, as before, for the accused, James Hays, who, it is almost unnecessary to say, was not allowed to be present. The Coroner said the husband of the deceased was not present ; but, as he had promised the jury, he had used his best exertions to secure his attendance, and up to the previous night he had been in expectation that lie would have been there, because in answer to an appli cation which he had addressed to Viscount Palmerston upon the subject he had received the following reply : " Whitehall, Sept. 16. " Sir, —I am directed by Viscount Palmerston to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of this date, re presenting that it is the opinion of the jury that it is important to the ends of justice that James Hays, who is now in custody on remand by a police magistrate on a charge of murder, should be produced at the coroner's inquest to be held before you on Monday next, and I an► to inform you that by his lordship's directions that I have informed the Governor of the House of Detention that his lordship has no objection to the governor pro ducing James Hays at the inquest in the custody of his own officers upon receiving the usual formal re quisition from you to that effect, provided that by this course the presence of the prisoner before the magistrate at the time fixed is not in any way interfered with. " I am, Sir, your obedient servant, "HENRY FITZROY. " G. S. Brent, Esq." Upon receipt of that communication he had forwarded a requisiti on i n d ue f orm t o th e H ouse o f Detention, in reply to which he had received the following : " House of Detention, Sept. 18. " Sir,—l have to acknowledge the receipt of your l etter, requ es ti ng me to pro d uce t h e b ody of James g a ys at an adjourned inquest to be held to-morrow. I Z,No inclose you a co py o f th e reso l u ti on o f the Court iu h will explain to you why I cannot comply with your request. THE FUGITIVE SLAVE LAW. The New York Tribune gives the following ac count of a disgraceful and brutal attempt to arrest a fugitive slave at Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania. An attempt has been made by a person calling himself " Deputy Marshall Wynkoop" (a brother to Colo nel. Wynkoop), another, answering to the name of " Joe Jenkins," and three other assistants from Virginia, to arrest as a fugitive slave a coloured waiter in the dining-room of the Phcenix Hotel in this place. Immediately after their receiving their breakfasts at the hands of " Bill," the unsuspect ing fugitive, who is a tall, noble-looking, remark ably intelligent and active mulatto, nearly white, they suddenly from behind knocked him down with a mace, and partly shackled him ; but by a despe rate effort, and after a most severe struggle, with the whole five upon him, he shook them off, and with the aid of his handcuffs, which were only fast upon his right wrist, he inflicted some hard wounds on the countenances of some of the Southerners, the marks of which they will probably carry to their graves. But, notwithstanding the fearful odds against him, he managed to break from their grasp, and, with the loss of everything upon him but a part of his shirt, and covered with blood, he rushed from the house and plunged in the river close by, exclaiming, " I will be drowned rather than taken alive." His pursuers fired twice at him on his way to the river without checking his speed, and on reaching the bank, they presente their large revolvers, and called on the fugitive, who stood up to his neck in the water, to " come out and surrender himself, or they would blow his brains out." He replied, " I will die first." They then deliberately fired at him four or five dif ferent times, the last ball supposed to have struck on his head, for his face was instantly covered with blood, and the poor fellow sprung and shrieked out in a g ony, and no doubt would have sunk but f or the buoyancy of the water holding him up. The people around, who had by this time collected in large numbers, were becoming excited, and could no longer refrain from crying out " Sham e , s h ame !" which had the effect of causing the Southerners to retire a short distance in evident consultation. The slave, not seeing his pursuers, came to the shore ; but not being able to supp or t himself in the water, he lay down on the edge completely exhausted, be came senseless, and was supposed to be dying ; on hearing which the slave-catchers remarked coolly that " Dead niggers were not worth taking south." Some one shortly brought a pair of pantaloons and put on the fugitive, who, in a few minutes, unex pectedly revived, and was walking off from the river, partly held up by another coloured man, named Rex, on seeing which his pursuers again headed him, drew and presented their revolvers, and called upon him to stop, threatening to shoot any one who assisted the fugitive. Rex, who drew back, exclaimed to the slave, " Put, Bill, to the water again ; don't be taken alive !" The poor fellow; seeing himself alone, for there was a general drawback on the revolvers being presented, turned and plunged into the river again, where he re mained upwards of an hour, with nothing above water but his head, covered with blood, and in full view of the hundreds who lined the high banks. His claimants durst not follow him into the water, for, as he afterwards remarked, "He would have died contented could he have carried two or three of them down with him." In the meantime some of the citizens, thinking there was no law justify ing such barbarity, were taking means to have the kidnappers arrested. They soon, however, saw the sentiment of the community was strong against them, and drove off before an officer could be found to arrest them. A telegraphic dispatch to the constable in Hazleton caused their detention there ; but he was overawed by several pom pous United States' officers, and they were allowed to go again. After their departure, the fugitive, afraid to come out there again, waded some dis tance up the stream and got out above, and was found by some coloured women flat on his face in a cornfield. The women carried him off to a place of safety, dressed his wounds, and at night he will be far on his way to Canada. Such arp the plain, unvarnished facts. You can not overstate the barbarity of the scene, the ex citement of the people, or the ferocity of the slave catchers. But having recently felt the rigours of the Fugitive Slave Law here, there was a general f ear of the officers, who bullied and browbeat any one who ventured to speak above his breath, exclaim ing occasionally, " Gentlemen, you can have him for $l,OOO ; but we are United States' officers ; re sist us at your peril." We felt ashamed of our country, and almost longed to be in Austria or Russia, where human rights are more respected. Nothin g in Mrs. Stowe's work equalled th e brutality displayed by this Pennsylvania Marshall and the Virginia slave-hunters. Had some b o ld spirit led the way, the citizens would have de demolished them on the spot. As it is, the result has been good. The blood-thirsty villain s were baffled—thee " property" escaped (though, pro bably, a cripple for life, if, indeed, he Elould live, for he was quite light-headed during the day), and there has been more anti-slavery feeling axcited, and more hatred to the Fugitive Slave Law aroused, than could have been done with years of lectures or addresses.

The issue of the garrison court-martial on the private of the 14th, Wm. South, for assaulting his commanding officer, was promulgated on Saturday, and his sentence is seven years' transportation. Lieutenant Bond, 4th Regiment, who was senior subaltern and paymaster, which latter he resigned, is now the junior lieutenant. The 84th Regiment is expected from India next year, after return of 18th and 80th. Lieutenant Hawksley, Scots Greys ; Lieut.-Colonel Thornton, Grenadier Guards; Lieutenant Gardner, 34th; Lieutenant Machell, 37th ; and Lieutenant Mein, 84th ; sold out of the service on Tuesday last. The quartermaster of the 37th is appointed to an en signcy ; and the quartertnaster-serjeant is promoted to the quartermastership. The court-martial in the 37th Regiment at Ceylon, in which Captain Seward and Lieutenant Machel were prin cipals, has led to the retirement of the latter from the service. The quartermaster of the 23d reserve is provided for by transfer to the 50th Regiment. Gort barracks are being enlarged to increase the num ber of troops there. MILITARY FLOGGING AT CHATEIA3f.—The sentence of a general court-martial held at Chatham in May last on a private of the 70th Regiment, on a charge of insubor dination and knocking down with his fists Dr. Piper, the chief medical officer at the Military Prison, Fort Cla rence, was read to the prisoner on parade, and in the presence of the troops by the adjutant. The prisoner's name is Thomas Farrell. It appeared that the court sentenced the prisoner to be transported for seven years, but on the case being investigated at the Horse Guards, it was found that some words had been left out in the charge against the prisoner, and the members of the court were ordered to re-assemble, which was done, when another sentence was recorded, and which was ap proved at the Horse Guards, that the prisoner receive 50 lashes and be imprisoned with hard labour for 12 lunar months. The usual forms having been read, the troops were marched to the Spur Battery, the place selected for inflicting the corporal punishment on the prisoner, who, on being pinioned, told the colonel that he would not flinch, they might floc , him until they were tired. Th e 50 lashes on his back having been given he was released, when the prisoner made use of some horrid expressions against Coloner Jarvis, and what he would do to him when he got his liberty ; and that he would also do for Dr. Piper the first opportunity, if he got transported for it. The prisoner's threats and imprecations were taken down in writing to form a charge against the pri soner, which will call for a general court-martial on him on his leaving the garrison hospital.
