LA W INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, DEC. G. RUNNING DOWN AT SEA, AND LOSS OF LIFE.-DOWELL V. THE GENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY. This was an action brought to recover damages to an amount exceeding 2,00 01 . aga inst the defendants, for the loss of the collier brig Harewood, run down on the night of the 4th October steam-vessel at he mouth of the Thames, by the Trident, , owing to the alleged negligence of the defendants' servants, according to the plaintiff's case. Six of the lives of the crew un fortunately perished on the occasion, and the only lives saved were those of Captain Graham, and a member of the crew, named Mason. The defendants pleaded "Not Guilty." Mr. Montagu Chambers, Q.C., Mr. Bramwell, Q.C., and Mr. Bovill, appeared for the plaintiff ; Sir F. Thesi ger, Q.C.,Sir Fitzroy Kelly, Q.C., Mr. Knowles , Q .C., and Mr. Wilkin, conducted the case for the. defence. The case occupied the Court from an early hour of the sitting up to six o'clock, and had not then terminated. The evidence for 'the plaintiff was closed, but that for the defendants was only taken in part, when the Court rose. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—DEc. 6. CLEGG V. MOSS. This was an action to recover damages for an assault, and the defendant pleaded—not guilty. Mr. Serjeant Thomas and Mr. Hawkins were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. O'Malley, Q.C., for the defendant. It was stated that both the plaintiff and the defendant in this action were betting men ; and the dispute in question arose out of some betting transactions. The plaintiff was called as a witness, and said he had, some time ago, given the defendant 11. to lay out for him upon the horse Haco, which was to run for the Cesare witch, and which horse won. Thereupon the plaintiff gav e a person named Scales an order upon the defendant for 305., the amount of another debt. On the evening of the 13th October last, the plaintiff was playing at cribbage in a public-house in Newgate-market, and the defendant came in. The plaintiff said, " Well, Moss, we have brought it off at last ;" and the defen dant re plied, "What do you mean, you b— scoundrel ; how dare you make use of my name ?" This was in refer • ence to the order given to Scales, and the plai ntiff re plied that he had not made use of the defendant's name, inasmuch as the defendant owed him 351. or 401. upon the Cesarewitch. The defendant then knocked the plaintiff out of his chair, and also knocked two a rtificial teeth out of his head—(a laugh)—and gave him several blows beside. Cross-examined—Witness got his living by betting, and he had kept a betting,office on Snow-hill ; but that he gave up, because he lost more than he could pay. He had paid all he could, and even now, paid regularly as he could afford it. He had been in trouble for bigamy; and he would tell them how that was. He had left a wife for adultery, and had taken another, for virtue, and had had 12 months for it ; and he should not mind hav ing 12 months again for another wife like her. (A. laugh.) The betting-office was in the name of Newby, Clegg, and Co. Newby was anybody you like—nobody; and the Co. was nobody ; Clegg being the man. (A laugh.) He r emem b ere d th e O a k s o f 1853, and he had received 4/. upon that race ; and he might have received 141. or 341., but not 4001. He had paid every man in respect of that race, except a man named Ben bow, whom he did not know that he had seen since ; and who had certainly never asked him for the money. He gave Benbow his address on the race-course, but he wrote by mistake, " Richmond-terrace," instead of Richmond street, Southwark." Benbow called at the terrace, so the gentleman whe lived there told plaintiff, and plaintiff told the gentleman, to tell Benbow where to find plain tiff. He had received 41. of Benbow, and had to pay him that and 61. besides. He had not paid him, because he had not seen him ; and would pay him when he did see him. Benbow was called to stand forward, and he went with alacrity up to the witness box where plaintiff was, but did not succeed in getting his money. Plaintiff had never knocked a man, named Harris down, for asking for his money. There had been a warrant, and they might know all about it by enquiring at the Mansion house. The man's name was Harrison, and the matter had been settled amongst themselves. John Dorrell, a coffeehouse-keeper in Smithfield, was playing at cards with the plaintiff when the row began. Plaintiff was not struck whilst in his chair ; but the de fendant squared at him, and he got up. They both "tried for the fall," and they both fell together. Mr. O'Malley said the best course, after this evidence, would be to withdraw a juror. Mr. Serjeant Thomas, however, said he had a witness, named Ravin, "a gentleman of great respectability," who knew all about it, and whom he should like to examine. Mr. Havill was accordingly called, and said he was a " betting-man." Mr. Serjeant Thomas— Did you see the assault in question ? Witness—No ; I was not in the house when it occured. The parties then agreed to withdraw a juror; and so the matter was disposed of. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, DEC. 6. PERCIVAIhL V. DUDGEON. Mr. Macaulay, with Mr. Willes, conducted the case for the plaintiff, and Mr. Iceating and Mr. Honeyman were counsel for the defendant. It appeared that a person of the name of Manning was riding a valuable grey horse, in June last, which horse was the property of the plaintiff, a horse-dealer, carrying on business in St. Martin's-lane. The Brougham of the defendant was in a line of carriages, out of which the driver suddenly pulled, as they were passing up St. Martin's-lane, and came in collision with the plaintiff's horse, striking him near the hind hock. The blow drove the horse on the pavement, and as he was trying to regain the carriage-way, he slipped about, and thereby injured his back severely. Prior to this event, the plaintiff had as much as 501. offered for him, but he had declined to take less than 65 guineas. A month after the accident, the plaintiff had only been able to obtain about 151. for the animal. The bill of the veterinary surgeon, for attendance and treatment of the horse, amounted to 161. odd. On behalf of the defendant it was set up, that the accident had been caused by the rider suddenly spurring the horse, whilst the driver of the Brougham stated his carriage never touched the horse. The evidence for each party was of a contradictory character. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 48/. Bs. 9d. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—Dec. 6, (Before Mr. Sergeant Adams, Assistant-Judge.) Mary Hall, 25, was tried on two indictments for stealing a purse, containing a sovereign and other moneys, from the person of Eliza Adams, and a purse containing two sovereigns and other moneys from the person of Elizabeth Patteson. Mr. O'Brien prosecuted, and Mr. Parry appeared for the prisoner. The facts of these two cases were very short. Each of the robberies were committed in an omnibus within a day or two. The prisoner was very respectably dressed —so much so that the prosecutrix in the second case, although she had observed the motion of her, hand, hesi tated to charge her with the theft. The jury found her guilty in both cases, Mr. Parry urged that the prisoners was not k nown t o been led the the officers, and, as he was instructed, she had into this by more guilty perso n s . H e hoped, under circumstances, the Court would not feel compelled to pass an extreme sentence upon the prisoner. The Assistant-Judge said the prisoner had been con victed on clear evidence of two very serious offences, committed, one on the 14th and one on the 16th of the same month. It was evidently a trade with her —omni bus robberies ; which were now so frequent and sys tematic, that the Court felt it to be its duty to pass a severe sentence in all such cases. It was only expert hands who took to picking pockets in omnibuses, and apparent respectability was brought to aid them in their depredations. He then sentenced the prisoner to four years' penal servitude. William Taylor, a wretched-looking boy, 13 years of age, was convicted of stealing a loaf of bread, the pro perty of James Gedder. Two years ago he was sen tenced to two month's imprisonment for stealing sweet meats. The boy, crying, said he had no parents, his father being dead and his mother in the workhouse. Singe he came out of prison he had tried to live by selling water cresses for his brother, but could not. The Assistant-Judge regretted that this was a case which could not be sent to Redhill, as it did not contain all that was required in cases sent to that institution. He hoped and trusted that ere long the country would be relieved of the stain fixed upon it by the present state of the law with regard to criminals like the wretched boy at the bar. A juryman asked why the parish the boy belonged to did not do something for him ? The Assistant-Judge said the reason of that was, that the moment a boy was convicted, so absurd was the law, Parish was relieved from all further charge of him. At Present we did all we could to encourage parishes and Parent s to desert children. The parents of a pri soner Were obliged to keep him before he was convicted, but not alt same position. Instead and the parish was placed in the Instead of this the law ought to compel his parish t o they would b e ook after him after conviction, and then Was it not dreadful more careful about his getting into prison. to look at the present case ? What could the Court dol o Nothing but send him to prison, with recommendati on ; but this was a great expense to the Gover rim r en rt t or his parents.

GUILDHALL.—Leivis igers, who was rem ande4 from last week, was brought before Alderman Copeland' on the charge of being found i n the unlawful possessio;., of a gold watch and other valuable property, which formed a part of the produce of an extensive robbery, recently committed on the premises of Mr. Matthews, a watchmaker and jeweller, of Leighton Buzzard,in Bedfordshire, on which occasion property, consisting of plate, watches, and jewellery, to the amount of from 8001. to 1,000/. was carried away. Mr. Frederick Folkard said—l am a pawnbroker, carrying on business at 160, Blackfriars-road. I pro duce a silver Geneva watch, pledged by the prisoner on Monday, Nov. 28, for 255., also a gold watch and six rings, pledged by the prisoner on the following day for 50s. The intrinsic value of the articles is not more than 555. Mr. Matthews —The whole of this property is mine, and Mr. Folkard has come forward voluntarily to give information. Cross-examined —I identify the silver watch by a defect in the movement, and a mark in the case. Two of the rings bear my private marks. I have not sold any of the property produced. Inspector Shelford said—l searched the house 177, Southwark -bridge-road, the address given by the pri soner, and found a fish knife and fork, three butter knives, nine forks, and a scoop. Mr. Matthews—l believe this property is also mine, I but I have a witness who identifies it positively. They are not all silver e and the value of them is about 50s. Inspector Shelford said—l have found other property, some of which has been recognised by the prosecutor ; and I therefore apply for a remand, to enable me to make further inquiries. Mr. Solomons said he could have no objection to a re mand at the present stage of the case, but with regard to the cheque for 151. and the 10/. note found on the prisoner, he had witnesses to prove that they came into the prisoner's possession in the usual course of business, and were no part of the robbery in question. The cheque was dated a fortnight prior to the robbery, and could not, therefore, be connected with it. Under these circumstances, Mr. Solomons applied that the cheque and the note might be given up to the prisoner, to sup port his wife and family, and provide the means for defence. Alderman Copeland refused to interfere, and the pri soner was remanded. CLERSENWELL.—On Monday evening, just before Mr. Corrie left his seat on the bench, a cabriolet, con taining a gentleman, two young ladies, and a policeman, drove up to the d oor of the court, and on alighting they were instantly introduced into the presence of. Mr. Corrie, in a state of evident excitement. The " gentleman" was perfectly intoxicated, with his coat torn, as if he had been in a struggle and resistance, and his name and address appeared in the police sheet as Robert Francis Webb, gentleman, of Clarence-street, Islington. The young ladies were his wife and her sister, who had received considerable violence. Mrs. Sarah Webb, the wife, a handsome person, of superior manners, appeared with her arm bound up, and suffering much pain. Having been sworn, she said that the prisoner was her husband, and he had been in the habit of ill-treating her. She had prosecuted him twice before at the Worship-street court for assaults upon her. On Monday afternoon he returned to his residence under the influence of liquor, and commenced a quarrel with her and her sister, on which occasion he seized a red-hot poker, with which he attacked them and threatened that he would kill them. He struck her on the arm with the weapon, and her arm was nearly broken. She was so much injured that she was under medical assistance. Mr. Corrie—Pray, what is the prisoner ? Mrs. Webb—He is a gentleman as far as property goes—he is a man of fortune. They went in fear of their lives through his threats and ill-treatment. Mr. Corrie said, from the difference in their appear. ance he at first thought that perhaps the prisoner was her father. He (Mr. Corrie) conceived that he was not then sober. Mr. Bayliss, the chief usher, said the prisoner was evidently drunk. Mr. Corrie—Then I shall remand him until to-morrow (Tuesday) when the case shall be gone into. The prisoner was then locked up, and eventually con veyed to prison in the police van. Yesterday he was again brought up for examination, when his wife and her sister were accommodated in the clerk's room, with Mr. Pelham, their solicitor, while Mr. Wakeling consulted with the prisoner in the gaoler's room. He was subsequently placed at the bar, when Mr. Pelham, addressing the bench, said, under all. the circumstances, viewing the position in life of the parties —the prisoner being a gentleman of considerable wealth --he would suggest that the case should be adjourned for a week. Mrs. Webb had put up with the prisoner's ill usage for a length of time past. They had been married some years, and had five children ; and in the interim of the adjournment they would make out a deed of sepa ration. He hoped Mr. Corrie would accede to this pro posal. Mr. Wakeling, on the part of the prisoner, consented to it, and was ready to put in substantial bail for the prisoner's appearance in a week, in order to answer the charge, or to come to some amicable arrangement in the matter. Mr. Wakeling concurred, and said Mr. Day, his client's collector, would become his bail. Mr. Corrie said he would consent to adjourn the case under the hope that some amicable arrangement might be arrived at. It was a very violent case—one which deserved the severest penalty of the law. The prisoner was in liquor at the time of the assault, and his wife must be protected from his temporary madness. He ordered the prisoner to put in bail, Mr. Day in 2001., and himself in 100/. Mr. Pelham urged that, as the prisoner was a man of immense wealth, the amount of the bail ought to be larger. Mr. Corrie then ordered Mr. Day to put in his bail in 500/., and the prisoner 2501., to appear at this court in a week. THAMES. John Thompson, 35, .an ill-tempered looking fellow, described as a shipwright, of Ship-street, King-street, Wapping, was charged with violently as saulting his mother-in-law, Elizabeth Hutchinson. It appeared there were some family differences, which induced the daughter of the prosecutrix to place her chil dren under their grandmother's care. The prisoner went to demand them and their elothes, and as the prosecutrix did not produce them as quickly as he wished, he knocked her down three times with very heavy blows on the head. Thompson, in his defence, said his mother-in-law had abused him like a pickpocket, threw a glass of gin in his face, and endeavoured to strike him with the poker. The prosecutrix denied this. After she was knocked down she took up a fire-shovel in self-defence, but did nor use it. Ellen Bryant confirmed the complainant's statement, and described the assault as a most cowardly and un manly one. The woman had done nothing to provoke it. Mr. Yardley said he was glad there was a law to punish such brutal and cowardly fellows, and sentenced him to three months' hard labour. ~ Mary Nugent, a repulsive-looking Irishwoman, wife of a dock labourer, residing at Crown-court, Glasshouse street, was charged with assaulting and wounding her own child, a boy three years of age, who now lies in a precarious state in the London Hospital. Police-constable 454 A said there was no prosecutor in this case. The woman's husband gave her in charge for the assault, but did not appear against her. Mr. Yardley—Then the woman must be discharged. Constable----The child is in immediate danger, sir, and may not live. Mr. Yardley—Then, if anything fatal occurs, bring the prisoner here again. How did it occur ? Constable —There was a quarrel, as I undertand, between her and her husband, and she threw a piece of crockery at him, but instead of hitting him it bit the child. Mr. Yardley—Then she must be discharged, but in the meantime you look to the results. NAY AL INTELLIGENCE. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 7, 1853. APPOINTMENTS. Master—William H. Harris (1853), to the Heck, 6, paddle-wheel steam sloop of 240-horse power, at present in charge of Chief Engineer Edwin Boulton. Acting Assistant-Surgeon—Edward 111`Sorley (1852), serving the Firebrand, 6, paddle-wheel steam-frigate, on the Mediterranean Station, is confirmed assistant-sur geon of that war steamer. Clerks—John B. Jackson (1846), to the Waterloo, 120, flag-ship, at Sheerness ; W. B. Hutchinson (1853), to the Juno, 26, at Chatham. PORTSMOUTH, DEC. G. The Russian frigate Aurora, 48, was towed out to Spithead to-day, after an extensive and thorough refit, which has made her a far better ship than she ever was. The Russian corvette Navarin, 22, in dock being re caulked, wants a new bottom, but her present one will be patched up to enable her to take her departure as soon as possible. The Blenheim, 60, Captain the Hon. T. T. Pelham, was hauled under the shears to-day, to be dismasted, pre paratory to going into dock. PLYMOUTH, DEC. 6. Her Majesty's steam-vessel Avon, Master Commander Veitch, from Portsmouth, arrived on Sunday with sea men for La Hogue, in the Sound. Shipwrights have commenced preparing the frigate Plicebe (building in No. 2 slip) for caulking, preparatory to her being launched. After launching she will betaken to the dock now occupied by the Nile, 90, where she will be lengthened and fitted with a screw propeller. Slip No. 2 not being sufficiently long for this purpose, is ordered to be lengthened. WOOLWICH, DEC. 6. The Monkey steam-vessel returned to Woolwich to day, from attending on the Rosamond steam-sloop, during her trial between the Nore and Mouse lights, and brought back Lieutenant Robertson, and the men who assisted in navigating the Rosamond to Sheerness, where she was left as an advanced war-steamer, at that port. The Rosamond was detained two days at Green liithe, owing to the fog which prevailed on the river, but she was able to make her trial in the deep water between the Nore and Mouse lights yesterday, and the result proved satisfactory, as she made a speed of over nine knots on the average runs. SHEERNESS, DEC. 4. The Rosamond, 6, paddle-wheel steam sloop of 280- horse power, arrived here this day in the charge of ( pro tent.) Lieutenant Robert Robertson, divisional Lieu tenant of the steam squadron of reserve at Woolwich, and additional to the Fisgard, 42, frigate. The Rosa mond left Woolwich on Friday morning last, and pro ceeded down to Greenhithe, having on board Captain Lyons and several other officers, who are studying steam at Woolwich. In consequence of the dense fog the Rosamond did not get up steam until this morning at B'ls. She then proceeded on trial of speed and testing of machinery, boilers, &c., by running between the superintenden ce i n ua s e p en e r c di t ne o dt r e nt ore li g h t vessel and the Mouse light vesse l , a g i ven dist ance well k nown.

O n her arrival hero at 2 . 15 p.m. this day, the steam tug-vessel Monkey, which had been in company with her from Woolwich, went alongside and received the seamen riggers lent from Woolwich yard and the stokers lent from the Fisgard, and con veyed them up the Medway on their return to Wool wich, via the North Kent Railway, in consequence of the fog, which prevented the Monkey navigating up the River Thames for Woolwich. The Rosamond is placed in the steam squadron of reserve here under the command of Commander Robert Jenner, of the Horatio, 24, screw steam guard ship. On the Rosamond's trial between the Nore and the Mouse, with 101bs. pressure on her boilers, she made 16 revolutions per minute, and averaged over nine knots. This trial of speed and machinery is considered quite satisfactory in every respect. The Cyclops, paddle-wheel steam-frigate transport, has this day got up steam for the purpose of tryinc , her engines and boilers, a survey having been held thereon ' so as to report the condition, and to ascertain whether she is calculated to proceed on a foreign station to be used as a steam transport for the conveyance of troops, stores, &c. The Royal George, 120, screw steam-ship, Captain Henry J. Codrington, has been put out of the fitting basin and moored at the swinging buoy ready for her compasses being adjusted, previous to her departure from this port. SPORTING INTELLIGENOE. WOLVERHAMPTON STEEPLECHASES. TUESDAY. HANDICAP SWEEPSTAKES of 20 sovs. each, 10 ft, and 5 only if declared, with 100 sovs. added. The second to save his stake.

Just before the racing commenced so dense a fog came on that the jockeys were unable to see the leaps until they were close upon them. From the Stand only the Water Jump opposite was visible to the spectators. By the time appointed for the Hurdle Race, however, the atmosphere was tolerably clear. The attendance of general company was immense. CLAYTON'S PATENT COMBINED CLAY-PRE PARING AND SOLID BRICK-MAKING MA-1 CHINE. In these days of building societies, agricultural im provements, and sanitary reform, there can be scarcely any subject more practically interesting than the im provement of brick and tile making, and accordingly it has, for two or three years, engaged a considerable share of public attention. A machine has been recently in vented and patented by Mr. Clayton, which undertakes to supply the confessed deficiency, and to bring solid bricks within the range of efficient machine power. In a private view which was given on Monday, Mr. Clayton afforded to a large party of visitors an opportunity of observing the action and capabilities of his invention. It has already obtained the medal of the Great Exposi tion of Industry at Amsterdam. The improvement con sists in the construction of moulding orifices or dies, having rotating sides formed by vertical rollers, instead of the fixed sides used heretofore, the rollers rotating ' while the clay is delivered through the die, and thus producing and preserving a sharpness and neatness in the edges of the brick which had previously been found unattainable in the manufacture of bricks through dies. The machine pugs or prepares the clay and makes the bricks at one and the same time. One of the leading features observed is a continuous delivery. The action of the blades as ordinarily set can produce only an in termittent delivery • but in this case there is an arrange , ment of blades by which the clay is subjected to a con tinuous lateral thrust, effected on either side of the die through the moulding orifices. The machine was worked by one horse, a man to feed the machine, and two boys to clear off the bricks atthe sides. Four or five revolutions were performed in a minute, and in that time sufficient clay was given out to make 25 bricks. The clay, after coming out horizontally in a solid oblong mass, is with great precision cut up into bricks of the required dimensions by means of equi-distant wires placed on one side, and worked so as to divide the whole at one stroke. To thig machine the great medal prize of the Great Exhibition of Industry, at Amsterdam, has recently been awarded ; and the machine we saw in work is one of which has been constructed for his Grace the Duke of Bedford. The following, we believe, to be an accurate descrip tio of this valuable machine : " It consists of a large iron cylinder, and is fitted with an extracirdinarys(patented) arrangement and adaptation of Clayton's plan of Archimedian knives, and with suitable machinery for the pugging preparation of the clay, and the formation of bricks at one time and by the same ope ration. " The action of this machine is a rotatory, and its de livery continuous ; it is worked by one horse (or is appli cable to steam or water-power) ; employs one man to feed it, and two boys to clear off the bricks and place them on the palette boards upon the barrows, ready for stacking at once. This number of hands will on an average pro duce from 9,000 to 15,000 bricks per day (according to the motive power and speed employed), thus effecting an enor mous saving over hand-moulding; and the machine re quires no skilled labour to work it. Many advantages are derived by the use of this machine in addition to its great powers of production, as the manufacturer can take the greatest possible advantage of favourable weather ; and, if working under cover, he is not forced to discontinue his operations even in the most unfavourable seasons, as the clay used is much stiffer than that used for hand-moulding. The operation of the machine is as follows :—The clay is dug from the field, and watered and turned up in the usual manner • it is then conveyed to the machine by the temperers ; the body of the machine is filled with clay, and the machinery set in motion, worked by one horse (or other power), by which the clay is thoroughly pugged, in corporated, and carried down to the moulding orifices, whence is discharged in continuous streams, and after wards separated into bricks of any required dimensions. The pressure of the machinery being uniform throughout causes the bricks to issue uniformly, compact, and per fectly free from sand-flaws so frequent in hand-moulding." All attempts at expressing have been to force the clay through the hollow square orifices, the sides of the orifices being steady or fixed, but by Mr. Clayton's in vention the revolving dies or orifices, which are formed by rollers placed vertically, which keep up a rotatory motion, works with the clay as it makes its egress from the orifice. The rollers are kept damp by a stream of water, which is let on by small taps when re q uired round the tops, and the material with which they are covered is kept in a proper degree of moisture ; the bricks come along the sort of stage erected to receive them, and having arrived at the end, they are imme diately, at one movement, cut into separate bricks by wire, and are carried away. They appear perfect in form, and with sharp edges ; and another great advan tage is that the supply is continuous—hence there is no waste or breaking of the bricks, or loss of time. We witnessed five or six experiments, and the results were 22, 24, 25, 25, 25, and 25 bricks in one minute. The continuous delivery is one of the leading features in the invention. The action of the blades, if set in the or dinary manner for pugging, would only produce an intermittent delivery. Below these blades, however, there is another arrangement of blades on the same axis, by which the clay is subjected to a continuous lateral thrust, which compels the clay to escape on either side through the moulding orifices. When we come to compare the advantages of this invention with hand moulding, we perhaps encounter a little difficulty, inas much as the moulding in the London and country dis tricts varies materially. Thus, in the London district, the pallet-moulder, we are told, will, with his assistants, turn out 5,000 bricks a day ; but he requires the aid of a clot-moulder and five other hands (making seven workmen in all), besides a horse, for the complement of his "stool." But in the country districts, where the clot-moulder is not engaged, 3,000 a day is the fair average. The brickmaker's day, too, is a long summer's day, from early morning till night ; whilst the day cal culated in the case of this machine is only ten working hours, in which from 10,000 to 15,0(10 bricks can be produced by the labour of one'horse, one man, and two boys. All these are facts which cannot fail to attract the attention of the public ; and having already exceeded our usual limits for notices of this character, we leave the patentee to reap those advantages which his inven tion deserves, and the merits of which we see have been certified to by the written approval of an immense number of scientific and practical men. Several gentlemen from the foreign embassies, eminent engineers, contractors, and large brickmakers, were pre sent yesterday, amongst whom we noticed the Baron A. de Berg (Prussian embassy), le Don Viriato Medeiros (Brazilian embassy), Count Chotch (secretary to the kustrian embassy), J. G. Bosanquet, Esq., Charles isday, Esq., John Jay, Esq., W. Caldwell, Esq., A. T. Cooke, Esq. (Venice), G. S. Brockie, Esq. (Edinburgh), and M. York, Esq. (Gloucestershire) , ANiesPsrisice.b Esq. , rudg and Stephenson, Messrs. Treadwell and Co, W. IL Kavanagh, Esq. (Brentwood), D. Montague, Esq. (Leigh, Essex), W. W. Pocock, Esq., J. W. Browning, Esq., T. C. Morton, Esq., J. Timothy, Esq., C. B. Blore, E s q., Y. Thynne, Esq., Messrs. Cubitt and Co., Messrs. Redlora (Notts), J. Newett (Berks), Wilkins (Oxon), and several brickmakers from the potteries. REFUGEE TEA MEETING. Oa Monday evening last a social tea meeting took place in the Mechanics'-hall at Nottingham, on behalf of and to do honour to the Hungarian and Polish refu gees now in Nottingham. There was a very numerous attendance, and the proceedings of the evening were cer tainly characterised by right hearty enthusiasm. Mr. A. Darby, the chairman and treasurer of the refugee committee, presided ; the speeches were diversified and enlivened by the performance of several glees and songs by the Misses Miller, Mrs. Marriott officiating at the pianoforte. After the removal of the tea equipage, the chairman made some introductory observations as to the object of the meeting, remarked upon the overflow ing response made on the occasion by the people of Not tingham to the appeal made on behalf of the foreign exiles, to whose uniform good conduct in this town he bore ample testimony. He then read over the cash statement, by which it appeared that the balance in hand after last year's public meeting was 531. 4s. ; the amount received as donations, and in repayments from refugees, who had got situations, 181. 15s. ; making, with 81. due to the treasurer, a total of 71/. 95., which was the amount expended. He read the answer of M. Kossuth to the ladies' committee, who had invited his attendance, and this document, though regretting the impossibi2ity of his attending, elicited the most deafening applause. .He also read other letters of apology for non attendance, amongst others from Mr. Biggs, and Mr. J. B. Hollins, of Leicester. Mr. G. A. Syme, Baptist preacher, was the next speaker. He asserted, in the first place, that the present meeting had assembled to discharge not merely the duties of benevolence, but also those of justice. He descanted upon the bearing of the Eastern question upon Europe at large, and upon the more immediate object of that gathering ; moreover, he affirmed that it was a theme of thrilling interest, not only to the statesman and politician, but to the philoso pher, the philanthropist, the Christian, to the man—to all, in fact, who desired the welfare and progress of humanity. In allusion to a previous meeting, and to this and other gatherings, he observed that he could not endorse all the sentiments uttered by different speakers, but was responsible only for his own. He then insisted that to struggle for liberty was as sacred a thing as prayer (cries of ' Question"), and declared that he would ask for it on the platform and in secret, with every breath of his body and all the powers of his mind. (Cheers.) The speaker then graphically sketched the rise and progress of the Ottoman empire, commencing with the period, 400 years ago, when the Turks took Constantinople, quoting the prophecy which prevailed in the East, that at the full expiration of that term the city would be retaken, and alluding to the causes which had led to its decline in a long series of years, and which in some measure supported the probability of its extinction being near at hand. He then entered at some length into an account of the liberal reforms effected by Mali moad—the father of the present Sultan—who began his reign thirty years ago, and who, despite the opposition of the independent chiefs, officers of state, jannisaries, and even of the people, whose condition he wished to improve, persevered in his plans of civilisation, at the same time that his finances were exhausted by the wars into which he was plunged by other nations of Europe. At the end of thirty years struggle he died, and the pre sent Sultan, following in the same steps, they had the singular spectacle of a chief and his government pushing the people on to reform—of the impulse proceeding from the throne to carry into effect wisely-adopted measures toimprove the condition of the people. Among the re forms thus effected he enumerated the security of human life, the passing of measures corresponding with the Magna Charta and Reform Bill in England, the efficient and fair administration of justice, the unfettered trans mission of property, the wise administration of finances, the establishment of schools— of which there were 395 in Constantinople—for the education of boys and girls, as well as institutions of a higher kind for tuition in medicine, agriculture, and other subjects of a similar kind. The reign of the present sovereign had never been sullied with an act of cruelty ; and as one result of this liberal and enlightened policy, they saw that instead of being in a state of decline, Turkey was able to cope with the Russian forces. M r . Syme then passing on to Rus sia, drew a very different picture, declaring on the onset that throughout the whole of the Russian empire there wa s not a single individual who answered to the defini tion of a man—one whose mind and heart and will could bear the responsibilities laid upon him by God ! Let them say what they might about the slaves in America, he pointed to the far more degrading spectacle of 22 millions of white slaves in Europe, partly belonging to the crown and partly to the nobles --whose lives were only tolerable when they happened to be possessed by a humane proprietor. What did they think of a country where there was no free press, no public meetings, and in which, as he heard, when the censor was asked to allow the printing of the Lord's Prayer, he said he should consider of it—the petition for daily bread im plying a desire for socialism, and the words "Thy king dom come" expressing dissatisfaction with the Czar's good government--and in which the words "freely" and " limits" were expunged from a book in which a mathematician was describing some machinery ? Refer ring to the frighful expense and sacrifice of human life involved in the erection of St. Petersburgh, the city of palaces, which was to be the metropolis of the world, by Peter the Great, he said it was the project of a savage, of a barbarian after all ; and ob served that they could not forget the thousands who pe rished in Siberia, by the knout, the dungeon, and the scaffold. It was asserted that Peter left a document, laying down the plan how Turkey first, then Austria, Prussia, France, and finally England and the whole of Europe were to be subjugated ; and whether true or not, it certainly seemed as if such a testament was regarded as sacred. Discontent, however, prevailed in every province of the empire, among every class from the serf to the noble, yet the ever restless tide of Russia's ambi tion must roll on and on and on, till checked by the waves swelling and recoiling upon herself. (Loud cheers.) What was now the duty of England ? Not to go to war ; but to reverse the disgraceful policy of her Government with regard to Italy in 1848, and Hungary at a later period ;—not to fight for houses, as they did in the reign of George 111., for those of the Bourbons, the Hapsburgs, and the Romillies, overlooking the little nationalities entirely, but to insist, in all these disputes, that constitutions shall be preserved, statutes shall be kept, and oaths rigidly observed ; and just cease to play into the hands of those who so unscrupulously trampled upon the liberties and rights of their fellow-men. (Cheers.) Though disagreeing with his exiled friends as to the measures to be pursued, he respected the motives of those who thought that the only path to freedom was war, and he only hoped, in adopting this means, God would bless them. (Cheers.)—Mr. W. R. Stevenson, another Baptist minister, taking as his text the Greek Church and the Mosque, gavo an interesting account of the history of the branch of the Christian Church known by the former appellation, and of the Mahommedan faith, describing the tenets held by and th e ceremon i es peculiar to each ; showed its bearings on the question now so much agitated through Europe ' • and insisted that if the two were to be judged by th e i r fruits, and not by the mere names, lie should prefer that exemplification of Christianity which had been given by the followers of Moslemism. He concluded by expressing his confidence that as there was a God in heaven, truth and the right must ultimately prevail. (Cheers.)—Captain Mayne Reid, in the course of a short address, strongly ex pressed his sympathy with the exiled patriots, clas-ified the Clarendon and Aberdeens among those who would consider them rebels, and severely animadverted upon Lord Palmerston for showing the cold shoulder to Kos suth when he put his foot on our shores, pointing to the contrast between his conduct and the noble manner in which he was received by the municipalities of the prin cipal towns in England.—A vote of thanks being passed to the chairman, the ladies, and the vocalists, and a do nation of 51. from Captain Reid being announced, the meeting terminated.
