LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Ocr. 19. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN RE WESTBROOK.-THE ISLINGTON CATTLE-MARKET. In the case of Richard Westbrook, who was made bankrupt as a hay dealer, of Lawrie - terrace , N ew -cross, and Islington, a petition had been presented, seeking to set the adjudication aside, on the ground that the bank rupt was not a trader, and that the whole proceeding was a collusive one to relieve Mr. Westbrook from his liabilities, and not for the purpose of distributing any property among his creditors. The petitioner was Mr. Samuels Adams, banker, of Ware, in Hertfordshire, who was a judgment creditor of Mr. Westbrook for 3,421/. It appeared that in 1849 a joint-stock company, called the Islington Cattle-market Company, was in course of formation, under the Act 5 and 6 William 4 ; they were provisionally registered ; and Mr. Westbrook, Mr. Kirk (also bankrupt), Mr. Clark, and other gentlemen were a ppointed directors ; and they entered into a contract with Mr. Williams for the purchase of land at Islington, for the purpose of a market, rendering themselves liable to forfeit 50,000/. if they failed to complete their con tract. A deed of settlement was prepared and exe cuted on the 29th April, 1850, by which the capital was fixed at 200,0001., in 20,000 shares of 10/. each ; but of this number only 1,600 shares had been allotted and taken up. While endeavouring to form the company, the directors kept open the ground as a layerage for cattle on their way to and from the market at Smithfield, charging so much per night ; they also supplied hay to the drovers for the purpose of feeding the cattle. This hay they purchased in large quantities, and sold it by retail ; and this was the trading on which Mr. Westbrook and Mr. Kirk had been made bankrupts. To meet their expenses, the directors had drawn large sums on the company's notes at rates of in terest considerably exceeding 5 per cent. ; and these pro missory notes, to the amount of upwards of 30,00/., now remained unpaid. The directors had sustained heavy losses in keeping open the market as a layerage, and in endeavouring to establish it as a mark et. The company was never completelyregistered, and the directorshaving failed to complete their contract with Mr. Williams, he took proceedings in ejectment, and took possession of the land and buildings. Mr. Clark, one of the directors, had made an affidavit stating that the market was not kept open as a layerage for the purpose of gaining a profit or obtaining a livelihood, but for the sole object of com pletely forming and establishing a market ; also that Mr. Westbrook was not a bona fide shareholder, not having paid the deposit in the said company. The deponent further denied that the bankrupt had been a hay-dealer at New cross or Islington, or that he was, at the date of the pe tition, a trader within the meaning of the bankrupt laws. Affidavits in support of the adjudication were made by Mr. Charles Barker, advertising agent, of Birchin-lane, who was a creditor for 106/. 13s. 4d. for advertisements ; and Mr. George Eade, the secretary of the company, who detailed the steps taken in the formation of the company, and stated that there was no clause in the prospec tus which authorised the layera ge o f cattle. He fur ther deposed that the directo r s p urc h ase d h ay i n large quantities, and sold the same in single trusses, to the drovers or others wa n ti ng th e same; that it was not compulsory on them to purchase the hay there, as they might have brought it w ith th em, or purchased it else where; that th e c h arges f or h ay were entire l y distinct from those for layerage ; and that any of the public who chose to come and buy hay there might do so. On the other side, it was denied that this was ever done, and alleged that the sale of hay was merely auxiliary to the layerage of the cattle. Mr. Cooke and Mr. Petersdoff appeared in support of the petition, to annul ; Mr. Lawrance represented the petitioning creditor under the bankruptcy (Mr. Barker) ; Mr. Lucas appeared for the assignees ; and Mr. Armstrong for the bankrupt. It was urged by Mr. Cooke, that there had been no trading, and that the bankruptcy was a collusive one, to relieve Westbrook from his liabilities. Several cases were cited, to show that an adjudication could not be sustained unless there was property for distribution, either in esse or in posse. - His Honour observed, during the argument, that mere concert was not enough to set aside an adjudica tion ; it must be also shown that it was done in the in terest of the bankrupt only, and not at all in that of the creditors. Mr. Eade late secretary and accountant to the com pany, deposed that the layerage and foddering of cattle was carried on at the market-place at Islington ; that large quantities of hay had been purchased down to Midsummer, 1852, and sold in truss. John Nicholls, drover and layer-keeper, deposed to the sale of hay to the drovers for their cattle. The bankrupt, in examination, stated that he had been in his father's bank at Reading, but not as a part ner. Of late years he had been in no business till he became acquainted with the Islington Market, about the end of 1848, when he negotiated to purchase it from the Perkins family for 85,0001. He heard that it had cost upwards of 260,0001. His means were not sufficient for the purpose without mortgaging the property. He had an interest in some reversionary property which sold for 40001. The vendors agreed to let 50,0001. of the 85,0001. remain on mortgage. His object in making the purchase was to forma company and complete the market. He paid a deposit of 5,0001. on the purchase. He negotiated the sale of the market with Mr. Shaw, Mr. Clark, Mr. H. A. Harrison, Mr. Kirk, Captain Y. W. Hamilton, Mr. Grantham, and Mr. Wall. They were to give 105,0001. for the market ; he had had two previous offers of 100,000/., which he had refused, having been solicited by the chairman and directors to hold the market for them. This purcha , e, if completed, would have left him a clear profit of 20,0001. He was to receive 5,0001. in money and the rest in shares. When he applied for the 5,0001. it was inconvenient to the company to pay it, and they gave him of 0,0001., the extra I,OOIC. licwg to cuvei• discount, commission, &c. Finding seine difficulty in discounting the bill, at the request of the chairman, Mr. Shaw, he placed it in the hands of Mr. Attree, of Chancery-lane ; , it was ultimately discounted, and he got 5,5001. from it. The shares agreed on, 18,000 in number, were allotted to him ; they were now in the hands of the official assignee. He was not then a director, and did not know the ar rangements the directors made for paying the Perkins family. Had previously carried on the layerage and deal ing in hay on his own account for a twelvemonth. His shares were allotted and handed over to him in March, 1850. He and the other shareholders signed the deed of settlement about the 29th Apirl, 1850. He took an active part in the affairs of the market down to March, 1852. During the whole of that period hay was bought by wholesale and sold by retail, and this was a profitable portion of the business. They had calculated on this as a main source of profit. Had the market been tho roughly established, the sale of bay would have been continued ; it would have yielded an enormous profit, from the greater number of beasts. The drovers might have brought their own hay, or bought it elsewhere. His name was not up as a hay•dealer, but it was on the carts. The further hearing of the case was adjourned for a week. The case lasted the whole day. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

The following is the additional evidence : Mr. J. W. Duncan said, I am cashier at the Royal British Bank. On the 14 th inst. the following letter was brought to the Bank by a messenger : " 55, Piccadilly, Friday, Oct. 14, 1853. "Sir, —Please to add this to my account, and give the boy a cheque book, also two five pound notes. Th e cheque is for 25/. JOHN DICICINSON. " To the Cashier at the Royal British Bank." This letter contained a cheque for 25/. upon the Union Bank of London, and was brought by a boy of about 14 years of age, who told me that another boy was wait ing for an answer. I did not give the two five pound notes as requested in the letter, but after putting the cheque book in an envelope, and addressing it to J. G. Dickinson, Esq., 55, Piccadilly, I handed it to the hoy. The cheque book produced by the officer is that which Iso delivered. The cheque produced for 81. 4s. has been taken from the cheque book. The cheque for 251. upon the Union Bank was returned to us on the 15th, in consequence of the drawer not being known. I do not know the boy who brought the note. Mr. J. G.

THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20, 1853. sisting of a small and empty basket, a small carpet bag, and two boxes, each about 15 inches in length, might have been placed inside the cab, and that the cabman was requested so to dispose of them. M r. Elliott observed that it was quite clear the com plainant was not entitled to charge for the parcels in the present case, as from his own admission, as well as from the testimony of the young lady who had been e xam i ne d , there was abundance of room inside the vehicle for the parcels without inconvenience to the ladies. The 10th section of the act directed that " the driver of every hackney carriage within the limits of this act shall carry in or upon such carriage a reasonable qu an tit y o f lug cage for every person hiring such carriage, w ith ou t any additional charge, as provided in schedule (A) to this act annexed." This was the general law as related to the carriage of luggage, and the exception in the schedule was, " when more than two person shall be carried inside any hackney carriage, with more luggage than can be carried inside the carriage, a further sum of twopence for every package carried outside the said carriage is to be paid by the hirer in addition to the fares." In the present case, though there were three persons in the cab, the luggage it was admitted was not more than could be carried inside the vehicle, and. therefore, the driver was not justified in making a charge for it. The complainant said he considered himself justified to charge for all packages placed on the outside of his cab. Mr. Elliott observed that he certainly was not. The law as he had read it to him was perfectly clear. He dismissed the summons. Octavills Eicke, a young fellow who assumed consider able airs, was charged with violently assaulting Mrs. Mary Ann Downham, the wife of a livery stable keeper in Chester-street, Kennington-road. From the evidence, it appeared that the brother of the defendant had pur chased a mare of Mr. Downham for 121., and got the animal away by placing a horse of greater value with Mr. Downham, as a security for the money. On Sa turday, the Sth inst., the defendant, who claimed the horse as his property, and not that of his brother, went to the premises of Mr. Downham, accompanied by a number of men, tore the stable door from the hinges, and brought the horse away. Mrs. Downham, in the absence of her husband, endeavoured to prevent the horse being taken away, and while doing so she re ceived a violent blow from the defendant, which knocked her down, and it was some time before she re covered. Mr. Elliott characterised the conduct of the defendant as most outrageous and brutal, and convicted him in a penalty of 51., or in default of payment to one month's imprisonment. THAMES. —Captain 6toolee, master of the Queen of the Teign, and the two seamen No)thcote and Golds worthy, were formally committed for trial for the man slaughter of the five Lascars who had been killedin the affray on board that vessel. It will be remembered that the defendants attributed the origin of the affair to an attempted mutiny on the part of the Malay portion of the crew. The Lascar witnesses, however, gave a dif ferent version of the matter. They said that the affray commenced in consequence of the chief mate beating one of the Lascars on deck, and some of the people were killed after the " bobbery" was over. Their statements varied considerably, and it seemed there had been some conversations among the Lascars about murdering the captain and mate and taking the ship to California. David Fairfield, an English seaman, who had beer disrated for incompetency and misconduct, and who had been put in irons a few days after the unfortunate trans action, partially confirmed the natives as to one Lasca► being shot and others cut down after the disturbance was over. Mr. Humphreys, on behalf of his clients, asserted their perfect innocence of the charge imputed to them. Mr. Yardley took bail for the appearance of the pri soners at the sessions, as before, and they were set at liberty. The two Malay prisoners, Ali and Ahalt, were also committed for assaulting Mr. Treatt, the chief mate, who had received no fewer than 14 wounds in the affray. A dissipated looking fellow, named John Broadley, aged 47, a coal-whipper, of 25, Devonshire-street, Com mercial-road East, was charged with an inhuman assault on Mary Ann Burchley, with whom he cohabited. The defendant had been in the habit of frequently ill using the complainant, and he bad even suffered two months' imprisonment for a brutal assault upon her. On Saturday last he went home drunk, and finding that the complainant had lent sixpence to a neighbour, he kicked and beat her in a savage manner, and finally threw her down stairs. She was taken up insensible, and had to be conveyed to the hospital. Broadley, in defence, charged the woman with intoxi cation and other misconduct. Mr. Yardley was satisfied the prisoner had committed a most savage assault upon the woman who had been foolish enough to live with him, and he should inflict a severe sentence. He asked the complainant if she con sidered her life worth preserving ? The complainant sobbed loudly, and said, "yes, sir." Mr. Yardley—Then discontinue this disgraceful con flexion. The complainant implored of the magisti ate to bind the prisoner over to keep the peace. If he was not re strained he would murder her. Mr. Yardley intended to do something more. He should sentence him to be kept to hard labour for six calendar months, and then to find good bail, himself in 801., and two sureties in 401. each, to be of good, be haviour for six mouths longer. THE COMMERCE OF FRANCE. According to documents just published by the French Government, the total amount of the com merce of France with foreign countries in 1852 was equal to 124,800,0001., imports and exports toge ther—being an increase of 12 per cent. over 1851. Of this total, 72 per cent. represents the imports and exports by sea, and 28 per cent. by land. The amounts for the principal countries trading with Franco were as follows in each year : 1851. England 216,680,000 United States 14,640,000 Belgium Switzerland 9,640,000 Sardinia 7,040,000 1852. ... £19,400,000 ... 11,480,000 ... 11,240,000 ... 10,760,003 J,, Spsin 5,280,000 German Customs Union 4,160,000 Turkey 3,280,000 5,480,000 4,803,009 3,360,000 Brazil.. 1,680,000 2,960,000 2,880,000 2,720,000 Naples 1,640,000 Netherlands... 1,840,000 English possessions in India 1,680,000 Tuscany Cuba and Porto Rico 1,120,000 La P7ata Egypt 680,000 Mexico 1,240,060 2,200,000 1,920,000 1,809,000 1,609,000 1,440,099 1,160,009 1,080,00 1,040,00, Peru BBO,OOO ... 1,000,003 It will be remarked that the increase is nearly general, and is particularly large with England, the United States, and Russia ; also, that those large direct exports to Australia had not commenced which will bring that country on the list in 1853. At the same time, it is to be mentioned that none of the figures can be taken as furnishing anything more than approximations, owing to the general vagueness of official valuations. Thus, while in the above return the total export and import trade with England in 1851 appears to have been 16,680,0001., it was put down in a Parliamentary paper published last year at only 10,111,5751. (namely, imports of British goods, 2,023,4631. ; ex ports to England, 8,083,1121.). The relative pro portions, however, of the trade with each country will not be affected by the consideration, and the fault, moreover, of the discrepancy between the English and French statements is believed to lie on this side, as, although our statements of exports may be fairly relied upon, little dependence is placed on our valuations of imports. With the French colonies the total amount of exchanges was 11,680,0001., the proportion of Al geria being 4,920,0001., to which if 520,0001. be added for the trade of that colony with countries other than France, an aggregate of 5,440,0001. is reached. The exports from France to Algeria were 4,200,0001. in 1852, and the imports from Algeria 720,000/., the latter being nearly three times their amount in 1850. They consisted principally of wool, hides, breadstuffs, and tobacco. At the present time considerable quantities of breadstuffs are being exported from Algeria, and in this respect 1853 is likely to present a large increase over 1852. THE POLICE IN DEVONSHIRE.—As was stated a few weeks since, the policemen of Torquay made an appli cation for an increase in their pay, on the ground that their present wages (16s. per week) were inadequate to meet the rise which had taken place in the price of almost every necessary of life. The local board of health, in whom the management is vested, took time to consider the application, and at their last meeting, held a few days ago, they consented to raise the pay of those who had served longest in the force from 16s. to 18s. per week up to Lady day next. e without fffi t [ tey . ic k l tot n ieum v dt z ebi n ß sy T i et l r odaS costue 9: nB E ea N i rn T r yi on . i tc, — hso denFrevrl inconvenience, oeeious Rus, )evas th or ousand C vtwae u neA r ns e er s t ay( b h_ a s a cv v ai ete years' n e vo r e eds n i n w e h r i v c o h u n hades suffered constipation, great indigestion, miser nd a n w d h debility, i l n i t o y ,fro by Du Barry's Food in a: very short effe medi cine could remove or relieve, have' been a pepsia, nervousness, debility, w.triite.mlTmioecho.rvenamldlvPbs.hy, Fcaslt:aavobsleelnlyßl‘hsvac,auruprlriyyilindec: happy Reeves, Pool Anthony, Tiverton."

The Quarter-Master to the Naval Rendezvous, Tower hill, said—On Wednesday last I saw Deane reading one of the bills exhibited outside the office. It being part of my duty to obtain seamen for the navy, I asked him if he wished to join. He answered in the affirmative, and I asked for his references to character and ability. He said he had not any, but that he would get some by the next day. On Thursday I met him in the street, and he told me he had the necessary papers, and I di rected him to be at the office by one o'clock. Shortly after that hour I went to the office and found Deane and Wiseman, both of whom offered to me their refer ences, which I found not to be made out on the present form. I asked them where they had obtained them. The Lord Mayor—What do you mean by the present forms ? _ . . Mr. Coleman said it might be necessary to explain to his lordship, that in consequence of the facilities offered by the permission given to tradesmen to sell the blank forms of certificates of characters and discharges, the Board of Trade had in January last, at the suggestion of Alderman Sir Robert Carden, before whom similar cases had been heard, restricted the issue of the present form, which differed materially from those formerly in use, and which could only be obtained from the ship ping masters by captains on paying off their crews, and hence the forgery of documents of the kind had been considerably diminished. The Quartermaster continued—l told them I did not like their appearance, for both papers seemed to me to have been written by the same person, although they came from different vessels, and purported to be signed by different individuals. I also told them of the conse quences, but they still declared that the documents had been given to them by their masters, and, in order to be satisfied that I was not enlisting bad characters in her Majesty's service, I took them to Mr. Coleman. Mr. Coleman said the prisoners were brought to my office by the last witness. Deane said his name was John Lee. I told him that was different from the name in the character. I produce the articles of the Garland, for which he had forged a character, and I find the name of John Lee in it with a bad character. I know the prisoner as William Walker Deane, and his re g ister ticket is now in my po ssess i on , an d po i nts him out as a deserter. The name of the master of the Garland is James Brown, not William Brown, as in the forged do cument. Mr. Coleman then produced evidence equally unquestionable against Wiseman. The prisoners admitted that all that bad been said against them was perfectly correct, and said they were sorry for what they had done. The Lord Mayor sentenced them to imprisonment, with hard labour for 14 days. BOW-STREET.—William Brewer, a young man, was charged with obtaining several parcels of stationery from wholesale houses, by false pretences. John Rider, call-boy at the United University Club, stated that the prisoner stopped him inWaterloo-place one afternoon, and offered him a shilling if he would go and deliver a note for him. Witness consented, and then accompanied the prisoner to a coffee-house in Chandos street, where he wrote something on a slip of paper, and desired him to take it to Mr. Reynolds, card-maker, in Vere-street. It seemed to be an order for 50 packets of cards, and was signed "IlenryJ. M'Clarey." Th e goo d s were delivered to witness, and conveyed by him to the prisoner ; but owing to the success of previous frauds at the same house, a policeman was sent to watch the desti nation of the parcel, and the prisoner, on receiving it, was taken into custody. Mr. M'Clary, stationer, of St. James's-street, in whose name the goods were ordered, proved that the signature was a forgery, and the prisoner wholly unknown to him. Other similar cases were established, and in the course of the inquiry the manceuvres employed by the prisoner to ascertain the names of firms doin g business with each other, also tr ans pi re d . I t appearecltbat about a month or six weeks ago the prisoner went into the shop of Messrs. Andrews and Co., of 167, New Bond-street; and after purchasing a trifling article of stationery, pointed to some packets of playing cards in the window, and said, carelessly, to the young man in attendance, "By the bye, of whom do you get the best sort of cards ? I am going to start business myself in a small way, and should be thankful for the information. The assistant replied that the cards in the window had been supplied by Messrs. Reynolds, of Vere-street, and he also men tioned two or three other firms with whom Messrs. Andrews had transacted business. A week or two after this conversation a dozen packets of cards were sent from Messrs. Reynolds without having been ordered by the firm, and it then occurred to the assistant that there might have been some fraudulent attempt by the young man in question, which had been probably defeated by the delivery of the goods at their house. In another case the prisoner had used the name of Mr. C. F. Seyfang, printer, of Farringdon-street, taking the name from the name on the door, or from the Direc tory ; but it happened that Mr. C. F. Seyfang had been dead some years, and the signature was never used by the present firm, who signed themselves " Seyfang and Co." The prisoner had obtained a considerable amount of property by the above frauds before he was detected. Mr. Henry committed him for trial. WORSHIP STREET.—The Rev. Thomas Rousel, incumbent of St. Peter's, Stepney, waited upon the ma gistrate, to complain of a nuisance, calculated to injure the health of his flock. A. large quantity of manure and other offensive matter had been suffered to accumulate underneath several of the arches of the Eastern Counties Railway, at Stepney, and poisoned the atmosphere. In the course of his visitations about the locality, which was densely populated, grievous complaints were con stantly addressed to him as to the deleterious effects of the nuisance complained of upon the health of themselves and families, many of whom were at present suffering under aggravated attacks of diarrhoea, typhus fever, and other dangerous maladies. After hearing their representations, he felt it his duty to transmit an urgent statement of the facts to the railway authorities, in which he implored them to take the necessary steps for the suppression of the nuisance, but they had not even the common courtesy to notice his communication. Mr. Hammill said that the public were greatly in debted to the reverend gentleman for taking up the matter, but it would be necessary i n th e fi rs t i ns t ance t o place himself in communication with the district sur veyor, whose duty it was to furnish hun with every as sistance in the prosecution of his laudable object. Mr. Rousel—l have already spoken upon the subject to Mr. Shaughnessy, the surveyor, who accompanied me this morning to inspect the place, and appeared per fectly appalled at the enormity of the nuisance, but ex pressed his opinion that a renewed application to the railway authorities was not likely to lead to any satis factory result, as he had complained to them more than once in similar cases without the slightest effect. Mr. Hammill said that he should direct one of the officers of the court to proceed forthwith to the railway station with an intimation to the officials that he ex pected them to adopt the necessary means for the total suppression of the nuisance without further delay. WESTMINSTER.—Mr. Wright, a corn merchant in Millbank-row, and one of the sanitary committee of the parish, applied to Mr. Arnold to complain that some men belonging to the Commissioners of Sewers were at that moment engaged in emptying a cesspool common to several of the inhabitants in York-buildings, Grub street, Westminster, down one of the old sewers which they were unable to flush. He had previously been to the Commissioners of Sewers' office, and had received an assurance from a person high in authority there that cesspools should only be emptied into flush sewers, where it could be washed down ; in violation of which assur ance the proceeding of which he complained was going on.

H e w i s h e d th e magis trate to send some of his officers to put a stop to it ; it was in the heart of a densely-populated neighbourhood, and it was impossible to say what mischief might result front the proceeding. Mr. Arnold expressed his willingness to do anything in his power, but said he must look to the act of Parlia ment first, to s ee w h at power he had. Applicant said he had felt it his duty to solicit the magistrate's interferen ce f or t h e poor people of the locality in which this was going on, because they were not in a condition to help themselves'. If this was being done in Belgravia or any other fashionable place, it would soon be put r. A a r s n t o o p i d to. Mimmediately directed Wood, the inspector of nuisances of the distri c t, to pay prompt attention to i the matter ; and f any offen ce aga i nst the words of the statute were committed, to t a k e proceedings against the parties offending. SOUTFIWARK.—Mr. Nugent, a gentleman residing at No. 5, Suffolk-street, Pall-mall, was summoned before Mr. A'Beckett, to show cause why he refused to pay the sum of is. to Thomas Nicholls, cab-driver, No. 3,219. The cabman said that on the 13th inst. the defendant engaged him on the rank near Suffolk -street to drive him to the London-bridge terminus. He proceeded the nearest way, and because he did not happen to get there in time for the train, defendant paid him a shilling less than his legal fare. . The defendant said he did not dispute the fare, but he considered that the cabman had not driven him the most straightforward and usual way. Instead of driving along the Waterloo-road, the New-cut, Union-street, to the London-bridge terminus, he went down Stamford street, across the Blackfriars-road, Holland-street, and through the Borough-market. There was a stoppage near the latter place, and the result of which was that he was tou late far the train by five minutes. Had he gone the usual way he would have been in time, and he should not have disputed the fare. The cabman said he went the shortest way, and as the gentleman did not signify which way he was to go, he was entitled to the shilling. Mr. A'Beckett said the cabman was always bound to go the shortest way, unless otherwise directed. Mr. Nugent said he thought the other way was the nearest,,,va and that they went a circuitous route. He was right, as m sure that if he had not driven that way, he should he was bound. to d haveAlr'.a A ve ' d ße t c l k le et t t ra t i o n ld the defendant that the cabman pay him ls. fare, ( 2 ' s be certainly went the shortest way, which complainant's unless directed otherwise.

'From the Lynn A dvertiser and West Norfolk Herald. ) Eminent as is the position which the maritime force of Great Britain has held from time immemorial, both in peace and in war,—in the prosecution of geographical discovery and of commercial intercourse, as well as in the terrible sovereignty of the seas—perhaps no single event has ever reflected more honour at once on our navy and our nation than that which has engrossed the public attention during the past few days. The discovery of a North-West passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean—the great problem which has baffled the inge nuity of geographers for seven hundred years ; upon which an almost fabulous amount of treasure has been expended ; in which hundreds of gallant men have perilled their lives—in many cases, as in that of the lamented Bellot, with too fatal a result ; while in others, and above all, in that of Sir John Franklin and his 137 companions, what hope remains is so slight as but to add to the darkness of despair—the effectuating of that noble enterprise, in which the hearts of all civilised nations are deeply absorbed, has been reserved to in crease the lustre of England's glory, and to add another jewel to her crown of peaceful triumph. We are assured the hearts of Englishmen must bound within them with patriotic pride when they read of the heroic exertion of their countrymen, of their noble daring in the performance of a duty requiring almost super human intrepidity and endurance of their stern, unflinching resolve to overcome difficulties, the immensity of which none but those who have them selves been engaged in this arduous service can ade quately conceive. Would that it could be said that the returned vessel had brought tidings of the gallant crews of the Erebusand Terror, as well as of that of the Investigator ; but this satisfaction is withheld, and, we fear, can never be expected. But, leaving this painful subject, we may well join in a hearty expression of gra titude and rejoicing in the ascertained safety of Com mander M'Clure, his crew, and his vessel, of which, until last week, the latest tidings dated as far back as the 6th if August, 1851, and which from the 24th of the follow ing month had been immovably frozen up in latitude 74.6 and longitude 117'12. And if to the nation at large there is so much cause for rejoicing in the dispatches, which prove not only the safety of the gallant comman ler, but the solution by him of the problem in question, ghat must be the pride and the joy of our own townsmen in knowing that it is one of themselves who has actually made the passage itself —that he alone, of all the brave and determined men who have devoted themselves to the task, has succeeded in entering the Polar Seas by Bell ,ing's Straits and returned by Davis's Straits, and ',rought home actual information of the resolution of the treat difficulty—that to Lynn belongs the honour of having produced a hero, not in the arena of war and bloodshed, but in the humane conquests of civilisation and ohilanthropy, so much more appropriate to the character of a grandson of Elizabeth Fry. The fact that the friends if Lieut. Cresswell had participated with those of all the irew of the Investigator in the solemn dread that the tidings of August, 1851, were the last which they would receive of the existence of that vessel and its tenants—the conviction, in fact, that these must be looked upon as ad litional victims to the noble enterprise of searching for and relieving the lost expedition of Franklin—must have imparted to the sympathy excited in behalf of him -elf and his family a depth and intensity which few oc iurrences could be expected so generally to produce. We are rejoiced at knowing that the emotion thus ex cited will not be allowed to subside in mere general feli itation, but that it has been resolved by a meeting of our townsmen, exceedingly numerous and respectable, though called together in the most impromptu manner, that some demonstration shall be made of the deep-felt congratulation in which the whole town unanimously concurs. As to the precise mode in which these sym pathies are to be conveyed we will not presume even to make a suggestion, feeling the utmost satisfaction in leaving the details to the body of gentlemen whose assemblage to consider the subject we elsewhere record, and who, when they meet again to concert final mea sures, will, no doubt, now that the intention has become generally known, receive a very large accession of num bers. Whatever be the modus operandi resolved on, we trust it will be one in which the whole of the inhabi tants will have the opportunity of co-operating, as we feel assured they intensely desire to do. There is one more point in connection with this sub ject, on which we cannot refrain from expressing a hope —nay, a positive assurance—that the well-earned pro motion of the gallant officer in whom so much interest is centred, will not be withheld by the Admiralty, - but that they will evince themselves as ready as the whole of the public in their appreciation of services for which not Great Britain only, but the civilised world, is deeply indebted. PROPOSED DEMONSTRATION TO LIEUTENANT GURNEY CRESSWELL. A highly respectable and influential meeting of gentle. men took place in the Council Chamber, Town Hall, on Tuesday afternoon, to consider the propriety and the mode of making a public demonstration of admiration, of the intrepid and important services of their townsman, Lieut. Gurney Cresswell, in connection with the Arctic discoveries, of which we give the particulars elsewhere, and of congratulation on his safe return. Various modes of testifying the general feeling of respect and esteem were proposed—such as a public dinner, the presenta tion of a congratulatory address, or of the freedom of the borough, &e., and the most cordial desire appeared to be participated in by all the gentlemen present to co-ope rate in a testimonial which should be both lasting and worthy of an individual whose achievements had reflected so great an honour on his native town. A deputation, consisting of the Mayor, Mr. Hogge, and Mr. Man nine., was, after a brief consultation, appointed to wait on Mr. Cresswell, in order to ascertain which mode of procedure would be more consonant and agreeable to his feelings ; and the meeting then adjourned until Saturday morning at eleven o'clock, for the determina tion of further measures. It should be stated that the meeting was entirely an unpremeditated one, and arose from several gentlemen having conversed on the sub ject in the course of the morning. Had any public an nouncement been made, no doubt the attendance would have been much more extensive ; but of course this was unnecessary, as the future proceedings will he such as to afforl to all an opportunity of testifying their interest a the subject. SERVICES, &C., OF LIEUT. SAMUEL GURNEY CRESS WELL.—For the information of our readers in the dis tance, we may state that Lieut. Samuel Gurney Cress well, third son of Francis Cresswell, Esq., a partner in the banking firm of Gurney, Cresswell, and Co., K i ng's Lynn, is by birth a Norfolk man, having been born in that ancient borough, in September, 1827. He entered the Davy early in 1842, and served in the China Seas in the Agincourt flag-ship, with Admiral Sir Thos. Cochrane, till the autumn of 1847, when the Agincourt returned to England. He entered immediately on board the Excellent gunnery-ship, at Portsmouth, and was passed out of her only five days before leaving England, as mate of the Investigator, Captain Bird, in the search ing expedition of Sir John Ross, May, 1848. Lieut. Cresswell returned in November, 1849, and on the 10th of January following, again left England for the Arctic Regions, as Lieutenant in the Investigator, Captain M'Clure ; the second ship of the expedition commanded by Captain Collinson, of the Enterprise. He left the Investigator, with dispatches from Captain M'Clure, April 15, 1853, and October the 17th delivered them at the Admiralty. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. WARWICK STEEPLECIIASES—WEDNESDAY. A.

IRISH CosnixtE.—The Galway Packet has the follow: ing gratifying bit of intelligence :—" It is with peculiar pleasure we notice the improved appearance of the peasantry on Sund a y s an d h o lid ays , th e surest signs of returning prosperity. Instead of the ragged coat, the old hat, and broken shoes, which marked the period of the famine, and stamped upon poor Paddy an appearance far from gra tifying to his pride, a new suit from head to foot now rewards his long-tried patience and hard struggle with adver sity. No one could fail to observe the strong muster of country people i n our streets, on S un d ay l as t, an d the cheering and gratifying appearance which they pre sented ; the boys wearing new and comfortable frieze and corduroy, while the girls displayed their red and blue mantles, nicely trimmed caps, and new shoes and stockings—articles of comfort which the poor people were long deprived of. From inquiries which we made in various quarters we received but one reply, that the country people were never in so prosperous a condition as they are at present ; an assurance which is fully borne out by th e c h eer i ng an d com f or t a bl e appearance which they present in our streets when they come to town. A NOBLXIIAN'S WHIM.—An interesting specimen, which may belnown to very few, and which is, for its kind, unsurpassed in the annals of literature, is the great historical *ork 'which has recently been com pleted by the late Mr. Wiffen, the admirable trans lator of Ta'so, and other popular works, which comprises the family records of every descendant of the ancient and distinguished house of Russell, com piled from authentic sources, chiefly in the posses sion of the family. This very beautiful production, which includes the portraits of every member of that peerage, direct and collateral, painted by one of the most prominent artists of the age (Harding) is comprised in one folio volume, printed in a style of sumptuous magnificence ; only one single copy of which was printed off. The unique bequest by the late Duke of Bedford, under whose personal superintendence it was commenced and completed, was designed by him as an heirloom in the family, and to be deposited in the library at Woburn Abbey, from whence it was on no account to be re moved. It cost the duke three thousand guineas.-- Salad fen-tgie iSolitary. PRICES OF SIIARES. IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK. From the Official List.
