A AM" LONDON, MONDAY. JUNE 14, 1847. WILLIAM Ckx.rol4—a name of most glorious and humanising import —a memory as has rendered as the mother-tongue which hi s most universal language on th e globe —a household v.ord among the chil dren of both herni vp h eres England w , i whose l common mother is his native CAXTON, the first printer in these isla n d s, i s to AZ commemorated by the erection of a monument; and that monument is at once to be a memento of the great labours ci WILMA NI CAXTON, and is i n an especial manner to attest the gratitude of the million to the ar t which that memorable philanthropist was the first to introduce to the knowledge of our ancestors. On the original announcement of such an intention we expressed briefly, but as emphatically as we could, -our exultation at the proposed move ment. On Saturday an actual step was taken for the commencement of this m os t na ti ona l t es timonial, a n ume rous meeting having been convened during the afternoon of that day in the Great Room of the Society of Arts, John-street, Adelphi, with many distinguished men upon the platform, and the noble and accomplished First Com missioner of der MAJgSTY'S Woods and Forests as i _ chairman. Nothing could have tended more to con firm the million in a determination to testify in some brilliant way their appreciation of the wonderful good entailed upon posterity by WILLIAm CARTON than the impassioned and eloquent utterances of Lord MoarErrr, and of the American Minister Mr. BAN CROFT. In the expressions enunciated by both those graceful and earnest orators there was the glow of benevolence, the colouring of rhetoric, and the fervour of a sympathising and poetical tempera ment. We are gratified that upon an occasion in augurative of a demonstratio n so noble and beautiful as the one which is now being made of the world's gratitude to CARTON, there were present men like Lord MORPETH and Mr. BANCROFT, men who, from their official position as well as from their mental en dowments, were peculiarly calculated to impart a graceful and yet a vigorous character to such a movement as the one proposed. In acknowledging our obligation, however, at the very outset to the Rev. H. MILMAN for having been instrumental in rousing the torpid memories of his countrymen to that eventful morning when a wayfarer knocked at the gate of Westminster Abbey and begged a shelter for the new-born discovery, we must protest against the monopoly of credit in the notion of a monument to CAXTON instituted on behalf of Mr. MILMAN by the supporters of that Reverend Gentleman. Let it not be forgotten that the man who originally started the idea of such a testimonial of honour to the name and fame of WILLIAM CARTON was CHARLES KNIGHT. If the Rev. H. MILMAN were to maintain a precedence on the part of his proposition, we should at once impeach him of plagiarism ; but it cannot for an instant be imagined that the Rev. Gentleman has, in defiance of dates and printed sentences, any intention of monopolizing the credit of the suggestion, or of filching from not the least distinguished of the spi ritual sons of CARTON—CHARLES KNIGHT—the ho nour of propounding the propriety of some public token of our admiration to the most venerable, and perhaps, the most indefatigable of our native printers Born in the fertile wealds of Kent, bred among the " broad and rude English of his day," WIL LIAM CARTON imbibed, as Lord MoRrETU beautifully observed, " much of the racy and hearty spirit of the soil." A rude, nervous, industrious, enlightened, generous-hearted Englishman was this WILLIAM CARTON, to whose exertions, to whose individual exer tions are traceable all the countless and inestimable blessings which have streamed in a copious, and fructifying, and inexhaustible current from the printing-press. As was appro priately observed on Saturday, the glorious song of CHAUCER was given to the wide world first by that press of CAXTON, which he constructed and worked under the sheltering roof of 'Westminster Abbey—to that press is owing the verse of CMAUCER and of LIDGATE—tO the example afforded by that press are attributable the extension and diffusion, amongst the populous nations of the earth, of the works of our immortal ancestors, of our poets, of our philosophers, of our moralists, of our biographers, of our ethical scholars, and of oratorical and didactic writers. Through the medium of WIL LIAM CARTON, as it were, our most illustrious and wonderful countrymen, oar Shaksperes, our Miltons, our Bacons, our Lockes, our Boyles, our Spen cers, our Newtcns, our Raleighs, have shone forth with a perpetual and undiminishable • glory, scattering the ignorance of centuries by their wisdom, breathing through the discords of vulgar life the melodies of their matchless numbers, •or speaking sensibly to the hearts of generations in the diction of demigods and with the truthfulness of oracles. Never was national benefactor so entitled to the reverenee of his posterity as WILLIAM CAXTON is to ours. Not for us, therefore, shall it be to evi dence our admiration for his greatness by the erection of some abortive squirt or attenuated lamp post. A monument let there be to WILLIAM C Nirox—and one especially at the western front of Westminster Abbey, " that spot where the sun as he descends in the evening casts his last look on the most venerable building in our island ;" but let us not, in the name of common decency, erect to his memory a paltry syringe like the fountains near the unfinished Nelson Column, or a bungling gas light like that which smoked the windows and peri odically cracked the panes of glass at the extremity of I Charing-cross. A colossal statue, modelled by TIIORWALDSEN, now attests in Alayence the love of the fatherland for the fame of GUTTENBURG. Let the ruddy light of the sunset, as it envelopes the ancient fane of Westminster with the glories of each de parting day, shine, too, on some colossal statue or symbolic structure erected before the portals of the evening to the memory of WILLIAM CARTON. Let the shadow of the votive granite fall upon the walls and mingle with the glooms of the old Abbey, in whose cloisters toiled, in the days bygone, the first and greatest of our English printers. Not for him a fountain or a gas-pipe, but a memento worthy in some measure of his immortality. -.... hit own account , sist,nnes!', of . Efigland, if 1 -Ie l'All not make some exer tions in ho'.iourable independence ? and at least endeavour to E l tral culture of flax throughout all parts of t s i u o pT n p s hoer o t n g Ireland--the zealous and efficient attention by which that valuable crop can be brought to the utmost perfection, by which not only the fibre but the seed may be preserved, and every portion made applicable to the beneficial uses of which it is capable, will furnish the solution of the enigma—will be found the- real cure for Ireland's distresses. The tourist throughout the country is struck with the extraordi nary differences visible in the appearance of the inhabitants. In the southern, eastern, western, and even parts of the northern districts, he sees around, him on every side a half starved people, exhibiting all the indications of the most squalid poverty—their wretched huts scarcely fit habitations for the swine that are admitted to a participation in the shelter—their clothing a mass of filthy rags, insufficient to ward off the inclemency of the weather, or to preserve even the decencies of life, while their attenuated and worn aspects evince a total absence of all the comforts and an insufficiency of even the necessaries of existence ; with this he also perceives a listless languor, a lounging laziness, a general indolence that seems to pervade the very at mosphere. If he inquires into the state of the country, he is informed of riots .and bloodshed, of agrarian outrages and nocturnal disturbances. While proceeding on his journey let him enter into Armagh or Downshire, and he is indeed astonished at the change. He finds a cheerful 1 and contented peasantry, well-fed and well-clad, clean and well-ventilated cottages, with every fitting office, and all the conveniences of domestic life, every 1 person employed, and even the children, contributing by their exertions to the general fund. It is almost unnecessary to say that peace and tranquillity will invariably be found in these happy localities. To what magical influences are these blessings to be ascribed? He is in the seat of the linen manufacture, the district in which the growth of flax is diligently and sedulously attended to ; there is no other apparent cause by which the great and extraordinary difference can be ac counted for. He may, therefore, fairly presume that it is ascribable thereto, and if by a separate calcula• tion he can show that the cultivation of flax would lead to such results, that fair presumption will be changed into a moral certainty: We hope on a future occasion to show that such is the case, to point out the many advantages flowing therefrom, the reasons why it should be brought into universal use, and that, as we have already stated, it furnishes most obvious means for the speedy removal of Irish distress, and of Irish difficulties. The deepest interest is still manifested as to the state of Ireland and the prospects of the approaching harvest. Much controversy exists as to the appear ance - of the potato crop, and the probability of its escaping the fatal taint that has already shown itself, beyond the possibility of doubt, in some districts. The fearful consequences of that mysterious visita tion to those who fell more immediately within its in fluence, the frightful destitution and suffering to which so many of our Irish brethren were exposed, the number of victims who prematurely perished from the combined effects of famine and pestilence, must excite the anxious desire of every man possessed of the common feelings of humanity for the adoption of any system by which the chances of a recurrence of such heart-rending scenes might be materially lessened, or rendered wholly impossible ; while the increased prices of every sort of provisions, the de ranged state of the money market, and the consequent difficulties by which every branch of trade and manu facture is affected, the people thrown out of employ ment, and their comforts abridged, not only in Ire land, but in this country also, must awaken the appre hensions of even the most callous and insensible, who from merely selfish motive, will be actuated by similar impulses. There is one class, however, to whom the question is of the most vital importance, whose very existence is de pendent on the speedy and safe solution of the pro blem. The proprietors of the soil in our sister island are indeed placed in the vanguard. They will have to sustain the first brunt of the encounter, and on the manner in which they meet the difficulty, the extent and efficiency of their preparation, their own safety must depend. By the new Poor-law for Ireland the great principle is recognised that the property of the country must sustain its poverty ; that the necessities of all must be provided for, before any portion can be made applicable to the luxuries or the superfluities of the few. They must see, then, that the means of use ful and profitable employment is placed within the reach of all, so that those who would otherwise un productively consume the national resources may be enabled to earn their own livelihood by the exercise of their own honest industry. Throughout almost the entire kingdom the potato has hitherto formed the chief, if not the only, article of food for the agri cultural population, and the cerial products of the land have been chiefly devoted to the payment of the landlords' rent. This cannot now be the case to any thing like the extent of former years. The greater portion must be applied to the maintenance of the people, and the claim for rent must be provided for from other sources. The Afoniteur Grec of the 30th ult. has been re ceived. It expresses very forcibly the dissatisfaction of the Athenian Cabinet with the discussion in the House of Commons, which was elicited by the motion of Lord JOHN MANNERS. The Union Monarchique asserts that the French Government has received dispatches announcing that the Porte had accepted the proffered mediation of the Vienna Cabinet, for the reconciliation of the rulers of the Ottoman empire and the Hellenic kingdom. Madrid papers of the 7th have arrived. Monsignor BRUNELLI is described as being still actively engaged in endeavouring to reconcile the QUEEN and her ill-matched husband. Fire and snow we fear are more capable of union. Both the Faro and Herald() contain accounts of the capture of the forces and property of the Junta. Otherwise than in the expression of joy at the honourable reception of General NARTAEZ at the French Court, and his friendly intercourse with the young Duke and Duchess of MONTPENSIER, the papers are barren of intelligence.

The Paris journals of Friday and Saturday have reached us with their usual punctuality. From the latest rumours in the capital it would seem that there is little probability of a very protracted existence for the Ministry. Guizoz's authority is slipping through his fingers—like the handful of sand, the tighter he grasps it the more quickly and the more glibly it runs out from the pressure. The back of the Admi nistration was nearly broken by the division in the Chamber of Peers upon the Medical Reform Bill. So desperately was the Cabinet driven by this division that, according to the Opposition newspapers, the whippers-in of the Chambers went even, as it were, to the bedchambers of decrepid nobles, and had their enfeebled and paralysed bodies conveyed to the benches of the Legislative Chambers by their at tendants. Notwithstanding which extraordinary precaution the Ministerial majority was miserably small. The various journals are busily occupied in the discussion of the probable consequence of this very visible decadence of power. The future is indeed to them a mirror in which they already see the reflected downfal of the once powerful but now powerless GUIZOT. The Presse contains the following article on the present state of the corn markets : " We announced a few days since that a slight change of temperature would be sufficient to raise the price of corn. Already, unfortunately, our anticipations have been realised in Belgium. The last markets of Courtrai, Grammont, Liege, Louvain, and Termonde, experienced a rise of from 2f. to 3f. the hectolitre. One week of cold wind has raised exaggerated fears in the minds of the consumers, and the speculators have taken advantage of it. It is, moreover, easy to excite a panic when a con siderable deficiency of provisions is supposed to exist. In England, notwithstanding the continuance of fine weather, a considerable rise in the price of wheat has taken place. In Holland prices are looking down. An inspection of the crops has taken place by order of the Agricultural Congress assembled at the Hague, and the appearanc es th roug h out the provinces are extremely fa vourable. The growing wheat has assumed the best aspect—the rye promises such a crop as has not been seen for many years—the potatoes are flourishing, and no symptom of disease has yet been discovered. It does not appear that the temperature has producd any bad effect in France. The corn markets continue to decline throughout the kingdom. In Ilbr East particularly, the fall in prices is remarkable. Within the last ten days wheat has fallen from 9f. to 12f. the hectolitre at Metz, and more than 20f. at Strasburg." The Journal des Debats publishes the following letter from Palma of the 3d instant : " The squadron of evolution commanded by the Prince de Joinville has made a short appearance in our roads, and the few hours it remained were devoted to a simple and affecting ceremony. The Prince had heard last year that the small island of Cabrera, which had been the prison and tomb of the French soldiers taken prisoners by the Spaniards at Beylen, was strewed with the bones of those unfortunate men, deprived of sepul ture. He was not able at the time to ascertain the fact, having been apprised of it just as he was putting to sea. Yesterday, however, the Prince had scarcely reached the roads of Palma, when he dispatched the steam- corvette Pluton to inquire if the information he had received was correct, and, on the return of the ves sel, he issued the following order of the day The Com mander-in Chief has been informed that on several points of the island of Cabrera human bones are seen lying unburied—the sad relics of our unhappy country men taken prisoners at Baylen, and who died of misery on that rock. The Pluton repaired, by my orders, to the island, and then the officers and crew, guided by a Spaniard who had witnessed the lingering agony of our soldiers, collected a large quantity of bones scattered over the soil and exposed to every insult. To-morrow the Pluton will return to Cabrera with the Abbe Coque reau, to give Christian burial to those remains. The admiral proposes to place a stone over them, with this inscription:—' To the memory of the Frenchmen who died at Cabrera—the squadron of evolution of 1847? (Signed) The Vice-Admiral Commander-in-Chief, Fer dinand d'Orleans.' " In consequence of that order, the Pluton returned this morning to the island of Cabrera, and the com mander of the ship landed with the Abbe Coquereau, chaplain of the squadron, to accomplish the religious mis sion confided to them. No pomp, no military show was displayed to give to that funeral ceremony useless éclat. The Pluton had her colours half mast high during divine service and the prayers for the dead. Nothing could be more affecting than to see the fifteen or twenty farmers who constitute the entire population of that desolate island kneeling by the side of our seamen, and joining in their pious supplications. Mass having been said, and the re mains of our unhappy soldiers covered with earth, a wooden cross was placed over the grave be indicate the spot where the monument is to be erected. The officers and men would not leave to the generosity of the Prince the honour of defraying alone the costs of that modest sepulture. A subscription, in which all participated, produced 2,ooof.—sufficient to pay the expense. The squadron demanded, moreover, that the name of the Prince be introduced into the inscription. This was a just homage rendered to the young admiral, who had conceived the patriotic idea of of offering that pious tribute to the memory of unhappy and forgotten fellow countrymen." Is there, then, any description of crop easily ac cessible to the farmers and occupiers of land, that will realise all these advantages—that will at the same time afford the small landholders a means of paying their rent, of obtaining a fair money return for their produce, which will open a wide field for the pro fitable occupation of the people, which will retain in Ireland large sums of money annually sent to other lands in exchange for that which might be produced at home, which will, if judiciously and extensively cultivated, lead to the accumulation of national and individual wealth, and bri ng i nto the country the capital she so urgently requires —her chief want. If all these object s can we it unhesitatingly s i a ta b t s i o n i gZ insanity to neglectu be attained blessin g , ar to by a little carethaend aaffit t e r fl in t a i o t i n , -- e — an i d s ans wer in With ethaectually within their grasp ? what face can abstain from seizing th s e ° ben g e r fi ea ts t that a hope for Irish landlord appeal to the sympathies , or Queen MARIA. Cuniszutt had arrived at Toulon _LONDON, MONDAY EVENING-, JUNE 14, 1847 on her way to Paris, where she was expected on Monday. On Saturday the official papers relating to Portu gal were laid on the table of the Chamber of Deputies by the Minister for Foreign Affairs. The general impression was that DAs ANTAS had voluntarily sur rendered himself to the bkckading squadron. According to the Journal des Debuts the commis sion appointed to examine the charges against General CUBIERES proceeded on; Friday, by the in terrogation of M. TESTS, formerly Minister of Public Works, and also of a barrister named CAPUI.

The House sat to-day at Twelve o'clock, for the pur pose of reading a thira time, in order that they might be taken up to the Lords this evening, no less than fifty one railway Bills. The SPEAKER took the Chair shortly after Twelve o'clock. On the motion that the Committees have leave to sit, notwithstanding the sitting of the House, Sir It. INGLIS objected to the motion. It was quite impossible that Members could do their duty in that House and in Committee also. If the House was to sit at so early an hour in the day, the Committee ought not. Mr. WILSON PATTEN said that the House sat at so early an hour that morning for a special purpose, namely, that of reading certain Bills a third time, into which it had been necessary to introduce a clause in conformity with the resolution passed the other day. II there were any Bills, to the third reading of which there were special objections, the third reading of those Bills might be postponed, but it would be highly inconvenient to prevent the sitting of Committees in consequence of the sitting of the House. Sir G. CLERK observed that it would be better for the Hon. Baronet the Member for Oxford to move that the House should now adjourn to four o'clock than put an end to the sitting of the Committees for this day. The motion was then agreed to, and leave was given for the Committee to sit, notwithstanding the sitting of the House. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITYQUARTER TO TH PEE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool on Saturday was very firm, with a bare supply. Sales 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 were for export, and 1,000 on speculation. Railway Shares improved again, and a large business was done in Midland and North Western. It was known on 'Change on Saturnay afternoon, that a firm very long connected with the Russia trade had been placed in difficulties, and there were hopes of an adjustment, but they were fruitless. The firm has, for nearly a quarter of a century, been esteemed for the most honourable course of dealings, and with much regret must we state that Messrs. Cattley and Stevenson's are among the list of those who, after a long course of extensive mercantile operations are compelled to yield to the pressure of circumstances. There is not one of this firm's extensive connexions who does not regret the misfortune. Purposely we refrain from making public any of the reports alleged to have brought the house into difficulties. The accounts received by the Britannia steamer, from Halifax and Boston this morning, are of a most pleasing character. " Creps luxuriant," states an authority, " money plentiful, state stocks looking up, and trade im proving," are, indeed, facts to gladden the hearts of our merchants, and to fill with dismay those who, for high gains, would keep back grain from the millions, so that they may realise large fortunes by speculations. The mercantile markets are likely to become more active should the price of grain, &c., be reduced, and there will also, it may be anticipated, be a brisker dement for manu facturers. The advices from Manchester leave room for im provement, the speculation in cotton having an unfavourable influence. Owing to the decline in the value of grain in Mark-lane this morning, the Funds rose about l A , per Cent., and the market is fluctuating between 8776 and 88 1 ,E fur Consols. The Scrip has improved to % discount. New Three-and-a- Quarter per Cents. are 894 to 89%. Bank Stock is worth 196. Exchequer-bills have been ss. to 9s. premium, being also a further advance. The small bills have been done at lls. to 14s. premium. No doubt money is becomg very easy. The Foreign Securities have likewise a better tone. Por tuguese Four per Cents. have advanced to 324 and 33. Spanish Five per Cents. have been marked 22 1 h, and the Three per Cents. 34 1 4 to N. The accounts from Madrid still afford a faint hope that the Government may attempt something for the bondholders. Mexican Stock has been rather firmer, viz., 204 to 201 % . Russian Bonds are 110 to 110 1 / 2 . The Railway Shares have been rather quiet, but holders are not inclined to do business except at higher rates. Bir mingham and Oxford are 17; Eastern Counties, 20 to %; Great North of England, 231; Brighton, 54 to ; Great Western, 113% to 114; North Western, 179; South-Western, 66 to 1 ,4 ; Manchester and Leeds, 103 ; Mid land, 121 to 122 1 ,4; Newcastle and Berwick, 27%; North British, 32; Northern and Eastern, 59; North Stafford, to 10%; South-Eastern, 364 1 ,4 ; York and Newcastle, 37 to !4 ; York and North Midland, 85 to 86; Northern of France, 12 ; and Paris and Strasburg, 4%.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE—MONDAY. During last week the arrivals of Grain as well as Flour for our market, coastwise and by land carriage and sample, were on a very limited scale, but those of Wheat from Scotland viz., upwards of 4,000 quarters, were large ; while from Ire land a fair quantity of Wheat and Flour came to hand. The imports of Foreign Wheat, viz., 16,444 quarters, were good, but those of Barley, Oats, Beans, and Peas were trifling. Of Foreign Flour we received rather over 8,000 barrels. Fresh up to-day rather a large quantity of home-grown Wheat, principally in the hands of the merchants, reached us from Essex and Kent, the arrival of that article since Saturday evening amounting to nearly 2,500 quarters. The show of samples of both red and white was larger than on any previous market-day held during the last six months. As might, therefore, be expected, considering the prevailing fine weather fo r the growing crops, and the absence of the principal buyers, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce was excessively heavy, at a decline in the quotations obtained on Monday last of from FITE TO SIX SHILLINGS P ER QUARTER, and a clearance was not effected. The show of foreign Wheat was very extensive, and we have to report a very dull inquiry for that article, and the rates receded from FOUR TO FIVE SHILLINOS FZR QUARTER. The transactions amounted to about 6,000 qrs., at the above amount ofdepreasion. The quantity of Barley on offer was small, it being wholly composed of the parcels received from abroad in the peat . week.

From our own grazing districts the arrivals of Beasts fresh up this morning were seasonably extensive, and about 700 head more than on Monday last. This increase in the supply, together with the comparatively small attendance of country buyers, and the unfavourable state of the weather for slaughtering, caused the beef trade to be in a somewhat inactive state, and the quotations ruled quite 6d per 81bs. lower than on this uay se'nnight—the highest figure for the best sorts not exceeding 5s 4d per 81bs, while some very useful Beef sold at 5s per Blbs. At those rates a good clearance was effected. From Norfolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received about 1,000 Scots. hopnebreds ' and Shorthorns; from the western and midland districts, 800 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England, 500 of various breeds; and from Scotland, 300 homed and polled Scots. There was a con siderable increase in the number of Sheep on sale, hence the Mutton trade was heavy, at a fall in the currencies of 4d per Sibs., and some difficulty was experienced in effecting a clearance. With Lambs, 80 of which were received from the Isle of Wight, we were well supplied, while the sale for that description of stock was very dull, at a fall in value of from 8d to is per llbs. compared with that obtained on Monday last, the primest Down qualities selling at only 6s per 81bs. The supply of Calves was tolerably good, and the sale was heavy, at 2d; per 81bs. less money. In Pigs, exceedingly little business was doing, and the rates had a downward tendency.

The case occupied their Lordships tho whole morning. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) ( Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Mr. Justice Winitzuw.N.) CATES V. SMITH AND ♦NOTHER. ➢lr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. Huddlestone appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Humfrey for the defendant. This was a " running down' case. The plaintiff is a coach master in the New-road, Chelsea, and the defendants are railway carriers carrying on business in the Old Bailey. It appeared that on the 28th of April last year, the Ba roness French hired a brougham from the plaintiff, and as she was being driven up Lambs' Conduit-street, towards Holborn, a cart belonging to the defendants, which was loaded with packages, came in collision with the brougham. In consequence of the collision the brougham was consider ably damaged, and the horse thrown down and dragged a considerable distance along the road, and injured. Several witnesses were called on the part of the plaintiff, among whom were the butler of the Baroness and the driver of the brougham, who concurred in stating that at the time the ac cident happened the driver of the cart appeared to be dosing, and that it was entirely owing to his neglect in not keeping on his right side. The amount sought to be recovered was 30/. Mr. HUMPREY in defence produced a letter which the de fendant had received from the plaintiff some time after the occurrence claiming but 21. 55., and stated that the plaintiff threatened when the defendant refused to pay the amount to bring an action against him, and to put him to 1004 ex pense. r. M Sergeant Wriacms said the nature of the defence had taken him by surprise, as he had been led to believe that it would be of a different character. He would therefore con sent to withdraw a juror. A juror was, therefore, accordingly withdrawn. WLEISH v. nuoomm. This was a prosecution at the instance of the plaintiff, a footman, to recover compensation in damages from Mr. James Broome, the well know prize fighter and pulllican, in Air-street, Piccadilly, for a violent assault committed upon him in November last. Mr. Sergeant SIIEE having stated the case, proceeded to call the prosecutor, APLeish, who stated that he was at the house of the defendant in November last, and that he offered to match a man to run a race against a person named Westhall, but he openly stated to Johnny Broome that he would not trust any money in his hands on account of dis honourable practices of which he had been guilty with re speet to stakes which had been previously placed in his hands. The defendant made use of very bad language, and said he would knock his head off if he accused him of dis honourable practices. lie (the prosecutor) repeated what he had said, at which the defendant walked up to him, struck him violently with his clenched fist in the left eye, caused his nose to bleed, and sent him backwards with con siderable force on a table. He suffered much pain from it, and next day he went to Mr. Young, a surgeon in Picca dilly, who bad occasionally attended him up to the present time. „dsf SERIOUS STEAM-BOAT ACCIDENT...4) n Sattl. b, A afternoon, shortly after one o'clock, whilst the SY l l tr ips Woolwich and London steam-boat, was on her upwar d yisa and shortly after putting in at Blackfriars pier, ?"„„ to in the act of passing under the bridge, when, e vi 2 n itche % sudden nip of the tide, the vessel struck one of tl er oat; of the bridge with such violence as to carry away ' fon” board paddle-box ;at the same time the top ( 4 th e ; doio ' caught the side of the arch, which forced the ast ° , ol o ' lO and it fell on the back of a man named Wills, fer` be w it' Mr. Samuels, the tailor, of Ludgate-hill.

In cross-examination by Mr. MONTAGUE CHAMBERS, he stated that he had been twelve months out of employment; that he had formerly been footman to the Duke of Northum berland; that he had betted for some years on prize fights, and horse and man racing; that after he was struck he wanted to go out, but that his friends would not let him, and that he remained for upwards of half an hour after, when h e went up to the Swiss Cottage, St. John's Wood, with more friends of his to fight a man who was backed against him by a friend named Porter; but when he got there he could not fight him because his eye became so bad. Both the Broomes were at the Swiss Cottage—neither held any money of his. The defendant did not ask him to leave the house before he struck him, but he did after.
