As he had always felt that it wa s h,7 terest to make the most of their position, h e and bis in brother directors had tried their hand at negoti at M negotiation which had been, so far as he was concerned successful, until there had arisen in it an interest which gave to it a termination different to what they had ex. petted. Looking at the traffic of their line , they had, he thought, no reason to be dissatisfied with the result, although no doubt they would feel that what they had obtained had been obtained at a most extraordinary ex pense. He had been looking at the revenue returns of the lines connected with this district for the period since February, 1851 (the time when the agreement was pro posed), to the 30th of June last, and had found them in the aggregate to exceed 2,000,0001., and he was sure that if during that period they had been working in amity, they would have increased those returns fully 20 per cent. So much, then, had been their loss upon the returns, independently of the expenses to which each company had been put to maintain their position. In looking at the returns since Ist of July last, they would find that the receipts of the Eastern Counties and Norfolk lines had been for the last two months 148,0351., against 129,5011. for the corresponding period of last year, showing an increase of 18,834/. ; and those of the astern Union 25,1811., against 21,1061., showing an ten increase of 4,0751. f or th e two months. They m i g ht set down the returns of the Eastern Union, as compared w i t h t h ose of the two other companies, in the proportio n of 1 to 41, showing that although they stood independently their success had been much larger than that of the other two united.

Mr. Humphreys appeared for the prisoners. The prisoners were going along the street in a cart, when one of their companions saw a pocket-hook lying in the road, and pointed it out ; Large took it up, and Brown examined it, and found in it a check for 101. 16s. 6d. upon the London Joint-Stock Bank. After some little talk upon the subject, Brown said he would get the check changed at the bank, although the pocket book not only contained the name of the owner, but there were papers in it in which his name and address were written. The check was accordingly cashed at the London Joint-Stock Bank, but one of the companions of the prisoners, not considering the transaction an honest one, went, by the direction of his father, to whom he represented the affair, to the establishment immediately after the payment was given, and stated what had oc curred. Storey, the detective officer, was then employed. He applied t o B rown, who at first said he knew nothing about the mon e y, b ut at last, with great reluctance, gave it up. It was considered necessary to introduce the case to th e j ust i ce room, in order that the city autho rities might deal with it, and Mr. Humphreys contended, that in all cases of lar ceny, or taken with felonious mind, there must be an ingredient of trespass as implied in law, or real, upon the party dispossessed of the property, and that no trespass could be committed without a predisposition upon the part of the person or persons accused to pos sess themselves of the property. Without that ingre dient there could be no larceny at all. Mr. Humphreys cited several cases which he said were analagous to that of his clients' and read the decisions of the judges upon them, all of which decisions were in favour of the view he took of the circumstances represented in the evidence. After an argument of considerable length and ingenuity to show that the animus furandi was not exhibited in the conduct of the prisoners, he called upon Alderman Humphery, who presided upon this occasion, to dis charge them. Alderman Humphrey having caused the principal parts of the evidence to be read over to him, addressed the prisoner in terms of severe censure. He particu larly alluded to the conduct of Brown, whose years as well as circumstances exceeded those of the other pri soner. It was quite evident that the intention was to pocket the property of another person, and if one of those who observed what took place had not named and exPosed the transaction the right owner would no doubt have lost the amount for ever. The prisoners had not the excuse of ignorance to plead, for the pocket-book supplied them with all information which honest men could require. Of their moral guilt there could be no doubt whatever, but there was reason to believe that there were doubts of their criminal responsibility. He was advised, and he believed, that there would be no chance of a conviction in the case, and he would give the prisoners the benefit of the doubts he entertained, and discharge them, especially as he did not wish to have an expense incurred unneccessarily. It would, however, be in the power of the person who had so nearly lost his money to indict them, if he should think proper, at the Central Criminal Court. - The amount of the check was then delivered to the right owner, and the prisoners were discharged. It is proper to state that Brown more then once inter rupted his able advocate, and said the whole cartload of butchers had agreed to " whack" the amount of the proceeds of the check among them. BOW-STREET.—Charles Clemente, potman at the George public-house, Great Queen -street, who had been remanded on several charges of arson, was brought be fore Mr. Henry for further examination. Mr. Braidwood, the Superintendent of the Fire Bri gade attended to watch the case. Mr. Pollard, from the office of Mr. Hobler, solicitor, for the prosecution, stated that there was as many as four or five additional cases of suspicion against the pri soner, if they could be gone into —one or more fires having occurred at each of the houses where the pri soner had been previously employed. At the first examination it was proved that two fires had broken out at the George--one in the night of August 23, when the prisoner called up the landlord, and gave the alarm, and the other a few days after wards. The insurance-offices (the Union and Monarch) repaired the damage done to the premises, but made no award to the servants for assisting in putting out the fire, a circumstance which was the subject of a re mark by the prisoner to a fellow -servant. At about the same time a fire was discovered in the shop of Mr. Hawkes, next door, where the prisoner was in the habit of delivering beer. It transpired further that the prisoner was formerly in the employ of Mr. Boulter, landlord of the Bell, in Leicester-street, where two serious fires occurred, after the first of which the prisoner received 81. or 91. by way of compensation for the alleged loss of his clothes, and for his services in assisting to put out the fire ; but he received no allow ance after the second fire, because his master had reason to know that his boxes were empty. Mr. Braidwood, in answer to the magistrate, stated that it had cost the insurance-offices about 3001. to re pair the damage caused by the fires at the George. Emma Burton, a servant, stated that she went into Mr. Boulter's service in April, 1851, on the re-opening of the house after the fire. The prisoner was a pot boy there. He received notice to quit for using ,abusive language to Mrs. Boulter, the landlord's mother. On that occasion the prisoner said to witness, " There have been two Catherine-wheels here, and there shall be another, for I will have my revenge." He was very angry at the time, and he also said that the old (meaning Mrs. Boulter) should perish in flames. Wit ness and the other servants were so alarmed at his threats that they did not think it safe to sleep in the house, and Mr. Boulter ordered him out that very night. The prisoner returned the next morning for his wages, and asked for a character, but his master said he should decline to do anything for or against him. The Prisoner—l don't recollect saying anything about Catherine-wheels, although the gents that used the parlour would sometimes let off such things, and I might have meant that. Witness—At another time he tied a piece of paper to the cat's tail, and then set fire to it, and the cat ran all over the house with the paper alight. The Prisoner—That is all a falsehood ; but she can swear what she likes. Caroline Cameron, another servant, who was in the same employ at the time, corroborated the last wit ness's evidence respecting the prisoner's threats, al though she declared that she never knew, and did not know, what a Catherine-wheel was. Mr. Henry inquired if any of the officers of the Fire Brigade had examined Mr. Large's parlour at the George ? George Colf, the foreman, stated that he was called in after the first fire, but Mr. Large showed him a bundle of paper forced into an aperture in the parlour wains coting. At the second fire it was found that this paper had been ignited, but the damage done at that time did not extend beyond the wall. The paper was part of a newspaper. Mr. Henry inquired if there was anything on the frag ments of the newspaper to show the date of it ? Inspector Mitchell said, there was an account of the cab strike on some of the pieces, so the paper could not have been a very old one. Mr. Henry—Was any award made to the prisoner or any of Mr. Large's servants by the insurance-offices ? Mr. Large replied in the negative. Mr. Henry asked if Mr. Large's fire was reported to the superintendent as wilful or accidental ? Mr. Braidwood said, it was not the practice to make written reports of a fire being wilful. It had been found to cause some difficulty, so no reports of that kind were now received. He was informed, verbally, that it was wilful. Mr. Henry—There could be no legal difficulty, for such reports would be regarded in the light of' privileged communications. Colf, the foreman, said that he reported the fire as " doubtful," although he had no doubt it was wilful. Mr. Henry wished to know if any of the insurance offices which had been injured by these repeated fires intended to take up this prosecution ? Mr. Braidwood was of opinion that they did not in tend to interfere in the matter, although aware of the facts, as reported in the newspapers, Mr. Henry said it would be of no use then to proceed further with the case. The circumstances deposed to in evidence were suspicious, but it was possible that the prisoner's conduct and observations might be explained consistently with his innocence. In Mr. Large's case it was clear that the prisoner was the first to call in the police after the fire had broken out ; and in the other cases, although it was strange that there had been so many fires in places where the prisoner had been formerly employed, the mere coincidence was not evidence of guilt. He thought no jury would convict of the capital charge, and therefore the prisoner must be dismissed ; but he could be taken again at any future period if any thing more satisfactory and conclusive thould be disco. vered. The prisoner, who had a broad grin upon his counte nance during the greater part of the examination, then left the dock. WORSHIP-STREET. —AndrewOonnor, a man about 30, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with the follow ing burglaries : In Commercial-street, Spitalfields, is a coffee-house kept by a Mr. Anderson, who carefully fastened up his place at 10 at night, when he returned to bed, with direc tions to a private watchman to rouse him at 3 the next morning. This the watchman did, and upon descending to his bar Mr. Anderson found the shop in much confusion, his till out of the counter, emptied of its contents, and flung upon the floor. The thief must have been tolerably dexterous, as no noise had been beard during the night, and, though no great amount of money had been actually carried off, it was manifest that the burglar must have been alarmed by the watchman's knocking, as a large sum remained untouched in a room closely adjoining. The back of the coffee-house abuts upon Spitalfields churchyard, tilrl.l,lrii from which it is separated by a wall sur mwoaugnitg:l with spiked iron rails, and, as it was plain, the zuprefilrosems:ban d been entered from the rear, an alarm was ground with great a constable of the H division, ran the house to the back, mounted the wall, and about ea rteath h h irsa i m pf ie , de when t y h a, e n n adl heh dart u s a g wha across wf s prisoner th be rbeuf ro r i o i a s tl e : The officer could not follow him, or he would have been spiked upon the rails, but lie hurried round to the front of the from the to church, and seized the prisone r j us t as h e d roppe d p of the that his alarm, n e i hoes had sajd if , i at k! into the st ree t. T he prisoner ot me at a ll," b ut afterwards c e o x n cl f a e i s m se e d d been left in the churchyard, where they were found, and it then appeared that he must have effected an entrance by one of the back win dows, and forced his body through a space over a sliding shutter only 12 inches deep. The prisoner was trans ferred to the station and searched, and there, in addition to a small quantity of money, among which was a Ger man coin, and numerous other articles, a box of confec tionery was discovered in his possession, of which he professed to be able to give no account, but which was directly afterwards found to be part of the produce of another burglary committed only a few minutes before he was taken. The police knew a confectioner named Day lived close to the first prosecutor, and therefore rang him up to examine his place, when, upon Mr. Day coming down, he found that his back parlour window had been opened, the tills from both his counters emptied of their contents, and flung on the floor ; and, in fact, that his house had been very industriously rummaged, as a card, the foreign coin, and box of confectionery discovered on the prisoner had been taken from the bottom of a trunk in Miss Day's bedroom, she not having been at all disturbed d uring the operation. A cigar -case also was found in the prisoner's possession, for which no owner could be discovered, though the police had no doubt it had like wise been stolen ; and the prisoner, who stared about him while in the dock with a half-idiotic expression, which the constables declared to be purposely assumed, as he had both conducted himself and spoken rationally enough till that moment, having declined any defence, he was committed for the depositions to be taken, THAMES.—James Merryfield, a blacksmith, living at No. 11, Richard-street, Limehouse, was charged be fore Mr. Yardley with kicking Ellen Merryfield, his wife, in the stomach, striking her over the left eye, and threatening the life of Mary Anne Merryfield, aged two years and nine months. The prisoner was a stout powerfully-made man, while the complainant was of short stature, and had a delicate appearance. The complainant, who had an extensive wound on her left eye, which was much aiscoloured, stated that she had been married to the prisoner about five years. A few days ago they were obliged to leave their lodgings in Catherine-street, as they could not pay their rent and their goods were seized. The previous evening her hus band came home about 7 o'clock in a state of intoxica tion, and gave her a black eye with his clenched fist. That morning he kiched her very dreadfully below the stomach. Mr. Yardley—What did you say when he kicked you ? Complainant—l said nothing. He was not undressed. He came home about 12 o'clock, and was so intoxicated that he lay on the bed with his clothes on. I did not go to bed, but sat on the stairs. He can be in constant word, and has good wages, but he gets drunk. Mr. Yardley—What was the quarrel about between you ? - Complainant--I gave him no provocation. He is often in the habit of kicking me in the same place. That morning he snatched the child from the bed and said that he would dash its brains out. He then accused me of improper familiarities with a bricklayer. I observed, it was untrue, and that I was not afraid of facing any one upon such a charge. Mr. Yardley —Did you feel any pain from the kick ? Complainant.- —Yes, Sir ; I am suffering from it now. After he kicked me I could scarcely walk, and I called out " murder." If lam not parted from my husband, I am sure he will murder me. He calls me awful names. six weeks ago he seized hold of a razor, and said that he would cut the child's head off with it. He has fre quently turned me out of doors, and threatens that if I go to my mother he will buy a pistol and shoot us both. Last Sunday we had no dinner, and but for my mother I and my child would starve. The prisoner said that his wife was of drunken habits and starved the child. On Thursday night the landlady took the child to Ratcliffe Workhouse because his wife neglected it. he complainant stated that when her husband came home drunk he always charged her with being in the same state. The landlady took the child away, as her husband threatened its life. She was present. The child was brought into court by order of Mr. Yardley. Its appearance showed that it had been well taken care of. The magistrate directed it to be given to the mother. On being placed in her arms it turned its head away and cried piteously. The grandmother, who brought the child in, took it, when it became quiet. Harriett Miller, the landlady, stated that the prisoner and his wife came to lodge with her on Wednesday. The prisoner had since returned home repeatedly in a state of intoxication. He did so on Thursday night, and soon after she was alarmed by hearing the com plainant's exclamations of " Murder !" That morning, between 5 and 6 o'clock, the exclamations were renewed. She bad not seen the wife intoxicated. She took the child to the workhouse in consequence of the threats of the prisoner ; the relieving officer would not take the child in, because the father was able to support it. She had heard the prisoner say a hundred times that he would dash the child's brains out. On the previous day she saw him tear his wife's gown off her back, possess himself of her pocket, in which were 2s. 6d., and he then turned her into the street. Mr. Yardley—Have you ever seen her drunk ? Witness—No, sir ; nor have I ever seen any victuals in their room, except what I and a lodger gave her for herself and baby. The prisoner was drunk all day on Thursday. Mrs. Williams, complainant's mother, said that her daughter was most kind to her child. She had often come to witness for protection. Witness had often given her food, or she and her child would have starved. Mr. Yardley—How do you account for the child re fusing to go to her ? Witness—She sees her father, and it is in dread of him. Mr. Yardley—Have you seen at any time, any bruises on her ? Witness—Yes, but not latterly, as he is in fear of the late law for the protection of women. The prisoner said that several weeks ago she broke his windows. Witness.—She did not know what she was doing. Your provocation was such as nearly to turn her brain. She came to me that day and appeared like a woman deranged. Last Whitsuntide, he one day, when intoxi her. H e l e ft h er wallowing in her to o k a razo r , an d sa id h e would cut off h intoxi cated, it about th e fl oor. cruelly r he By Mr. Yardley.,_m y _ daughter w as never un f a i t hf u l to the prisoner. It s h e ever was in liquor it was only ca blood.tde Ha de an d th en u se d s e d rou when drinking in his company. Mr. Yardley (to the prisoner)—What have you to say for yourself ? Prisoner.—l never lifted my hand nor finger on her. Mr. Yardley—As for your assertion, I believe it totally untrue. I have no doubt that you not only struck her, but kicked her. lam glad that you, and persons like you, fear the new law for the protection of females. I hope tlat after the experience you will have of the power of the law you will dread it the more. It is impossible to conceive a case which more strongly shows the necessity of such a law. The prisoner was sent to the House of Correction for six months with hard labour. SOUTHWARD,_Mr. John Pillow, wharfinger and lighterman, of SYmond's-wha r f, T oo l ey - street, was sum monedbefore Mr. C om b e for unlawfully permitting and man, whose n ame i s un k nown, to nav i gate a barge, his property, t h e said man not being a freeman of suffe r suffering a the Company of the Master, Wardens, and Commonalty of Watermen and Lightermen of the River Thames, or entitled by law to act as a lighterman, contrary to the by-laws of the said company. William Savage, a licensed Waterman and lighter man, stated that between 3 and 4 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon last he saw one of the defendant's apprentices and the watchman navigating a barge belonging to the defendant, laden with cotton, between Horselydown and London-bridge. The apprentice was pulling one oar, and the "foreigner " (as men not being freemen of the Watermen's Company are called) pulled the . other, —he, by law, not being entitled to navigate the river Thames. Mr. Combe asked Mr. Pillow what answer he had to make to the charge ? Mr. Pillow said, that personally he knew nothing of the circumstance ; but he had felt it his duty to meet the summons on public grounds. In consequence of the strike on the part of the watermen, master wharfingers and lightermen were obliged to employ other persons to navigate their craft. Mr. Combe—But you must be aware that the statute is against you; and that by the 38th clause of the Water men's Act you are liable to a penalty of 10/.'for employ ing any person to navigate your craft who is not a free man. What has the complainant to say respecting the strike ? The complainant said, that although he had worked 12 years for Mr. Joyce, a wharfinger, yet, as the whole body of lightermen had struck for an advance of wages, he had been induced to join them, not liking to be singular. But he had since offered to serve Mr. Pil low, as the disagreements between the men and their employers had been very nearly brought to a settle ment. Mr. Pillow assured the magistrate that the inconve nience arising from the strike was serious to the whar fingers, and, unless they submitted to the unjust de mands of the lightermen, they must employ whomsoever they could get to do the work. Complainant--The strike ended on the day the ".foreigner" was seen to be employed. Mr. Combe—The question is quite clear. This com plaint has arisen out of a strike for wages on the part of the lightermen. The offence, however, against the bye-law is proved. I shall, therefore, inflict a nominal penalty of is. on the defendant. Mr. Pillow said he was quite satisfied with the deci sion of the magistrate, but he wished to know what course wharfingers were to pursue ? All his men were now on strike. Mr. Combe advised him to apply to the Court of Aldermen, who alone had the power of altering the bye. laws of the Watermen's Company, provided the altera tion received the sanction of one of the judges of the superior courts. He had no doubt that if such an ap plication were made a clause would be immediately introduced that would effectually put a stop to these strikes. It could not be suffered for an instant that these lightermen should put not only the wharfingers, but the public generally, to such inconvenience. He was certain that regulations might be easily made to prevent such proceedings in future. Mr. Pillow said his object was to expose the system adopted by the lightermen in the use of what they con sidered to be their privileges. He had no to wards the men, but he could assure them that if they perse t v h e e r m ed se i lve nt s or h m eirp e re t s hn e a nt coursethey winjured their would in juretfinalrly em ployers, for the wharfingers were contemplating mea• sures which would effectually remedy the evil, to the detriment of the lightermen alone. Mr. th e t °ln they are only them destroying and theirthe they ownwil l soon business, and losing the goo dis cover d will of their employers. But strikes among workmen appear to be the prevailing passion at • that g e o o o n;ing POLICE ; SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 10, 1853. this moment. Carpenters, masons, and men in other trades, who are earning good wages, are laying by their savings to form a fund in order that they may be able to combine against their masters. Such a state of things cannot be tolerated in this country. Mr. Pillow said, the standing wages of a lighterman were 30s. a-week, and they were paid 2s. 6d. extra for any night-work ; but the men demanded double the 2s. 6d. for night-work. This the masters could not afford to pay. The amount he himself paid in wages during the year was 4,0001., and if he were to make the advance required he should be ruined. Mr. Combe said, if the men continued to combine the masters must get the law altered, so that they might be enabled to employ other men, and break up this corpo rate monopoly. Mr. Pillow--We know what the end of it will be. We intend to resist these unjust demands, and to appeal, as your worship has suggested, to the Court of Alder men. We also are maturing a plan which will have the effect of putting it out of the power of these men to oc casion such serious obstructions to business in future. Mr. Pillow then paid the shilling, and, having thanked the magistrate for his attention, left the court. The complainant applied for his costs and to be paid for his loss of time. Mr. Combe-- --- Certainly not. If you like to combine together, you must bear the consequences. You are going the right way to have your trade thrown open. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.
