MARKET INTELLIGENCE. ( Front the London, New Price Current of this day). Sugar..—To-day the market for West India sugar pre sented a quiet appearance, both refiners and grocers operat- Ing 'with reluctance. Rather lower rates were taken, larkklng a decline compared with last Friday of 6d per cwt. T ramsactions are 200, making for the week 1,310 hhds, &c. -A 'I auction 100 hhds of Demerara, chrystidised, were sold t ` - da3 7 . ? ' fine 40s to 41s Od, and other sorts 35s to 39s 6d per cwt.

Crushed sugar i s l ess wanted for shippin g , s till th ere MAURITIUs.—This afternoon Mauritius Sugar did not attract much attention, and easier rates were accepted. The public sales of 1,800 bags went at 35s 6(1 to 37s for good to fine yellow, and at 33 s t o 3 5s for low to mid. EAST INDIA.—TitiS afternoon there is no decided re duction for Bengal Sugar, still the trade operated with reluctance.

To-day there was little passing in foreign sugar either for shipping or home con sumption, and prices close fully 6(1 per cwt under last week. There was no public sale. COCOA.—West India at present is not much required, and rates, compared with last week, show a small reduc tion. Of 250 bags Trinidad at auction, 'a part only sold— grey at 31s 64.1 to 34s ' • low to good middling red, 34s 6(1 to 38s. Privately good to fine can be obtained at 38s 6d to 44s ; and Grenada, 30s to 37s per cwt. COFFEE.—This afternoon the market for Mocha coffee presented a dull aspect. At auction 327 hf-bales and 334 qr ditto, via New York, went at slow prices, imperfectly garbled at 60s to 61s 6d, and good ditto 675. In Native Ceylon there is little doing, and 46s 6(1 to 47s is the nearest value of good ord. Plantation was purchased with Teluc tance privately, and at previous prices holders were dis posed to sell. TEA.—A reluctance is evinced to operate in lower sorts of Con(ron, and there is a slight decline, but better kinds have been in good demand for actual consumption, and rates rule firm. The currency for low to good common is 10d to iObi, rather blackish leaf to blackish leaf lOid to is Old, strong to Pekoe sorts is 1(1 to is 8(1, and superior is Mto2s 2d per lb. There is a larger quantity on offer than last week of all qualities. In Green Tea a good deal has been done, especially in better sorts.

Arracan 9s to 9s 6d, and M a d ras Os 6d to l Os. RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The stock of East India rum is 1,700, and of West India 2,000 puns., &c., less than at this date last year; home and export deliverie s are favourable, and prices rule higher by 4d to 7d per gal. Brandy continues in brisk request, and previous terms are well supported, stock showing a further decrease. SPICES.—To-day there was not much demand for pepper, and rates are barely maintained. At auction 772 bags Malabar sold at nd to 4d for shot kind. Of white 140 bags fetched 7 i -1d to 7d for good ordinary, being the full value. Mace is cheaper, and sc. went at 2s ld to 2s 5d for ordinary and middling. Prices are rather lower for Nutmegs, and at auction fifteen cases sold at is 10d to 2s 7d for low to middling brown.

Lard oil is not offered under 60s. Cod can be obtained at 331 lOs to 331 15s. In seal the amount of business concluded is small, and a desire is evinced to sell, pale at 351105, other sorts 321. lOs to 355. Of Southern 34/ to 381 is the value of low to fine, but little is doing. Sperm sells more freely at 851 to 861 10s, and Headmatter 861 lOs to 881. The value of Spermacetti is is sid to is 6d per lb. TALLOW.— The demand has much fallen off for Russian on the spot this week, and prices have declined 9d per cwt, fine yellow candle selling at 45s 9d to 46d. Only limited contracts have been concluded for delivery ; there are sel lers at 45s 6d to 45s 9d for next two months, and at 45s to 45s 3d for the latter part of the year. LIVERPOOL PRODUCE MARKETS.—Thursday, SUGAR continues in good demand, and the market is very firm. The transactions for the week consist of fully IC) hhds plantation. at 35s to 38s 6d for Barbadoes, in cluding grainy at 46s ; 35s 3d to 36s 3d for Antia ' na ; and at 31s 6d to 41s 3d for grainy Demerara ; also 1,900 bags East India, including Benares at 37s 6d. to 41s ; dates at 35s 6d to 37s ; and Madras at 29s to 31s 9d ; 350 bags Ceara have been taken at 16s 6d to 21s 6d ' • 70 cases and 100 bags of Bahia at 17s 9d to 18s ; and 280 boxes Havan nah, with all faults, at 18s 3d to 20s 3d per cw L. . .

Captain Mates, in his last weekly report, states—" Since my last report we have made great pro gress into the hill, and the appearance of the lode, which is nearly a foot wide, would, I feel sure, make any Cornish captain's teeth water ; for the rich purple ore which came out of it yesterday (Wednesday) tells at once the increasing value of this mine. The water spouts out right well, and the mixture of quartz and splendid greasy clay stamp it at once to be a mine that will ere long pay more than its own working." SURVEYOR-GENERAL.—We are enabled to state that the office of Surveyor-General of the Ordnance has been filled up by the appointment of Colonel the Hon. Lauder dale Maule. There will, in consequence, be a new elec tion for Forfarshire, but the return of the gallant colonel will not be opposed. The new writ cannot be issued until the meeting of Parliament a month hence.—Edin burgh, Courant. SINGULAR COINCIDENCE.—It is a curious coinci cidence that two distinguished members of the present Administration were born not only in the same street of the same town, but also in the same house. It is well known that the father of the Chancellor of the Exche quer, the late Sir John Gladstone, rose from small be ginnings to great wealth. When he "got above the world" he built a substantial house on the north-west side of Rodney-street, Liverpool, and there his dis tinguished son first saw the light. Subsequently, on his removal to the suburban villa of Seaforth, the house was tenanted by Mr. John Cardwell, of the firm of Card well and Co., of Blackburn, and soon afterwards the present Right Eon. Edward Cardwell was born there. [ADVERTISEMENT.]—Diseases of the Kidneys, Blad der, &c.—Dr. Denis Cronin has removed from Leicester place to 35, Bruton-street, Berkeley-square, where he may be consuited, as usual, from ten till two, on his treatment of affections of the kidneys, bladder, and prostrate gland, in their connection with diseases of the stomach and liver. 'Urinary Analysis (the importance of which to the successful treatment of disease is now fully acknowledged) conducted daily, in accordance with Dr. D. Cronin's new tl'eory. EXPORT OF COTTON AND YARN.—We have just been favoured with a statement of the total value of cotton goods and yarn exported from Liverpool and the Clyde to Bombay, for each year from 1840 to 1852 inclusive ; and it is curious to observe how stationary this branch of our export trade has continued. In 1840 the total value exported was 1,168,3241., and in 1852 it was 1 ,219,728/. In 1842 the value was only 831,0241., and in 1844 it rose to 1,588,304. The quantity, however, of the different kinds . of goods exported shows a material varia tion in different years, which we shall take another opportunity of adverting to.—Slipping Gazette. JOHS 4f3R1G41.T.- r 2HE DLNIATII , TO ; THE A MERICAX JI&LSTEIZ lA T 3LINCHESTER. TO THE EDITOR OF THII MORNING HERALD. SIR,—I perceive that the ninrs of this day comments pretty freely upon the speech which was uttered by Mr. John Bright at the banquet given to Mr. Ingersoll in this town on Friday last. The speech itself was in the very worst possible taste, and was charact erised by the usual bitter ness of feeling which always escapes from the lips of our honourable representative. But there are some circum stances connected with it which are not yet known ; and as that dinner was attended by gentlemen of every political shade, for the purpose of doing honour to a distinguished man, and exemplifying our regard for his private worth as well as his diplomatic ability, I am not tho only one in this town who is of opinion that the whole facts should be known. Mr. Ingersoll had been feted in Liverpool by the Awri can Chamber of Commerce, previous to his visit to Mat chester, and the Mayor of that town, Mr. Samuel Holme, had also invited a party to meet his Excellency at the Town hall. His worship had forwarded an invitation to the Mayor of Manchester, and to Mr. Bazley and to Mr. Aspinall Tur ner, the representatives of our two commercial chambers, and as an act of courtesy the Mayor of Manchester forwarded an invitation to his brother Mayor to be present at the banquet given to his Excellency in Manchester. Mr. Hohne was consequently present at our dinner on Friday; and both ho and Mr. Ingersoll were for several days the guests of Mr. Robert Barnes, our excellent chief magistrate. Mr. Bright spoke late in the evening, and as his remarks have been given to the world, I need not say that his speech was most bitter, and both in tone and matter was a departure from that com Leousness and harmony which had pre viously existed. When he sat down, which ho did amidst the regret of all present that he had introduced topics which must have been most unpleasant—if not actually offensive—to Mr. Ingersoll, all the repel ters, thinking the business at an end, rose in a body and left the room. This was unfortunate, for, immediately afterwards, the Chair man proposed " The health of the Mayor of Liverpool," coupling it with " Our Municipal Institutions." Mr. Holme, who is well known for zeal and loyalty, and for the prominent part which he has always taken in public matters, administered a most cutting and dignified rebuke to Mr. Bright, wh ose r e mar k s h e d es i gna t e d as " most un just and injudicious," and in a strain of great warmth and amidst general applause defended the House of Lords from the virulent attacks of Mr. Bright. Ho challenged the honourable member to show any act of the House of Lords which could be considered an invasion of the constitutional liberties of the people —showed that from the days of Runnymede, when the barons wou the Magna Ciarta, up to the present time, true freedom had always been more endang-e7ed by the too arbitrary power demanded by the Commons than by any act of the heredfualy peerage, and that municipal institutions wero needed as a counterpoise to all arbi trary power, however it was exercised. The House of Commons, he said, though elected by the people, was just as likely to exercise tyranny as either of the other two branches of the Legislature, and it was the duty of the people to take care th a t th e House of Commons did not, by acts of an overbearing nature, destroy the equili brium of our institutions by rendering the pHs lieges of the House of Lords nugatory. He contended that there was no analogy between a comparatively new country like the United States and an old country like England, whose institutions had struck theii roots deeply in the soil of ages ; and therefore the remarks of Mr. Bright were as illogical as they were injudicious. He stated that he had recently passed th=-ough the greater part of France, and had seen every town and village bristling with bayonets, and her dockyards and naval depots displaying greater ac tivity than he had witnessed in Portsmouth or Plymouth. He had seen 1,500 guns, and acres of land. at Strasbourg and other places covered with the munitions of war, and he warned the meeting against the silly advice of those who declaimed against naval and military armaments, while we were living close to a nation whose destinies were wielded by a fatalist—whose libei lies were extinguished, and when upon the firing of the first hostile shot, the trade of England would be impeded, and Manchester, with its costly and magnificent machinery, and its numerous and ac tive pdpulation, would be suddenly paralysed. He re gretted to have felt the necessity of urging such topics, being only an invited guest; but said that he felt it his conscientious duty to protest against the doctrines of the previous speaker, as much as he regretted the want of judg ment which had dictated them. The above is a meagre outline of what the Mayor of Liverpool said, and I only give it as far as I can recollect it ; but I may add, they were well received at a meeting where nearly all who were present were men of the highest mark, and amongst the most distinguished in our town. The republican notions of John Bright are not those of the people of Manchester. The majority of us arc free-traders ; but we are not Re publicans. Our member made a woful mistake on the occasion to which I allude ; and while i admire his talents I must condemn his bad taste ; and I fear that if any ministry had his sei vices in office, they would not long retain them, for his pugnacity and.lack of judgment would lead him to make shipwreck of himself, or of the ministry with which he was connected. You will agree with me, that it would have been well had the reporters not left the room so early, so that the bane and antidote might have gone together, as it is impossible for any one from mere recollection to supply a correct version, much less the tone and spirit with which the rebuke—l had nearly said the castigation —was administered. I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, Manchester, Jan. 12, 1853. Ow's. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. SPORTING NOTES.—No. CCCLXI. ANALYSIS OF THE SEVENTY-FOURTH DERBY. I have yet three animals to review before leaving the Whitewall division of the Malton stables. . Lord Derby's br c UMBRIEL, by Touchstone or Mel bourne, out of Verbena, was but little thought of until he made his debt at the Liverpool July Meeting on the Cup day, beating Lord Glasgow's Miss Sarah filly, in a Triennial Produce Match, by a neck—not a particularly brilliant performance—when he was backed at 30 to 1 for the Derby, not on the strength of his running in the match, but for his good looks, bidding fair, as he does, to be the best of Verbena's numerous progeny. He was very quiet in the market until the St. Leger day, whe z he won the Municipal Stakes easily, beating War-whoop, Incense, and Doublethong, and immediately rose ten points in the odds, at which price his chance was invest ed on by the aristocratic partisans of the stable to a con siderable amount, between 40,0001. and 50,0001. having been taken off the books in the course of a few days. He remained until lately, notwithstanding a heavy and continuous outlay in his favour by his patrician support ers, at the same figure at which he was first backed in earnest-20 to 1. Within the last few weeks, however, his opponents have fought shyer, an d 18 t o 1 is no w th e longest offer against him. At Doncaster he received forfeit in a match with Doublethong ; and in the Hough ton Meeting walked over for a 300 sovs. sweepstakes. These were his last performances as a two-years old, he is consequently unbeaten. He has been backed to win already not less than 80,0001., which is a toler able proof of the confidence reposed in. him by his friends. Umbriel is rather a smallish horse than other wise ; and in the barrel and quarters strongly reminds me of Tadmor. His action resembles the Nigger's, and is admirably adapted to a hilly course. He is doing good work, and has every appearance of going on all right. His brother Uriel ran fifth for the Derby ;if he can obtain a position two places nearer the winner it will be quite as much as I can at the present moment give him credit for being able to do. Lord Derby's eh c HOBBY HORSE, by Ithuriel, out of Tour de Force, has never been backed, that I am aware of, for a single shilling. His performances have been very inferior ; and out of the seven engagements that he has in the present year, I cannot fancy he has the most remote chance of winning any. Baron Rothschild's ch c BREAK o' DAY BOY (own brother to Peep o' Day Boy), by Harkaway, out of Rosetta, by Roller, was nominated by Mr. Braddell, and first saw the break of day in February, 1850, at Kilfera, in the county of Kilkenny, at which time he was considered by good judges to be one of the finest foals ever dropped. The splendid prospect which his promising foalhood held out has not yet been realised, for he is, by no manner of raeans, at the present time, a first-rate specimen of horse flesh. He is a slow coach, but possesses, or lam very much deceived, capital staying powers, and, not impro bably, will be heard of satisfactorily in some of the handicap races, but not in the race for the Derby, for which I am given to understand he will not run. He made his first, and I presume his last appearance, in the Derby betting at the Liverpool Autumn Meeting—the price 100 to 1. Has not run. Is engaged in the Two Thousand Guineas, for which I doubt his starting. C. PECK, of Grove-house, Malton, has only one horse in training engaged in the Derby—the Hon. S. Hawke's b. c. TOWTON by Melbourne, out of Cinizelli, by Touchstone, out of irocade, by Pantaloon, who, in the only race he has figured in—the T. Y. 0. Sweepstakes at Doncaster —came off second best to Lambton, beating the Queen (third), and several others, easily. He is an improving sort of animal, and will be heard of hereafter, but is of little use, I fancy, for the Derby. W. I'ANSON, of Spring Cottage, Malton, has also a solitary Derby animal in his care, nominated by Mr. J. Brown, yclept BALCOWNIE, by Annandale, out of Queen Mary, by Gladiator. But little is to be expected of this horse before the summer or autumn; and nothing of him at Epsom. J. SHEPHERD'S is the only other Malton stable possessing a Derby horse. and it has two. Mr. Spence's b c ST. ANDREW, by Lanercost, out of Sultana, nominated by Mr. J. Conroy, has figured in five races without obtaining the place of honour in one. Is of no use for the Derby. Mr. Shepherd's b c ACE OF TRUMPS, by Assault, out of Portion, by Lot, nominated by Mr.. Bumby, has run in six races, and been defeated easily in all. Like the preceding, he is of no use for tne Derby. THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF.

T ELL.TiGENO.E. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH-JAN. 13. BESSEL V. WILSON.-FALSE IMPRISONMENT.-SEARC ING PRISONERS AT STATION-HOUSES. _ This was an action against Alderman Wilson to reco ver damages for false imprisonment. The matter arose out of a conviction against the plaintiff under the Copy right and Designs Act, 5 and 6 Viet., cap. 100. Mr. Bessel was imprisoned, under a warrant of the defendant, for not having personally attended a summons issued against him, although at one of the hearings to which the summons referred he was represented by his attorney, and at another by his attorney and by counsel also. The action was tried by Lord Campell, at Guildhall, and resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff, with damages 1501. A rule nisi for a new trial had been obtained on the ground that the warrant required the plaintiff's attend ance in person, and therefore the Alderman was justified in the course he had taken, which now came on for argument Lord Campbell read his note of the proceedings at the trial. His lordship then said that he would take this opportunity of repeating the observations he had made on that occasion. He had then expressed his astonishment and disapprobation at the manner in which the plaintiff had been treated. He had bed - n searched like a felon upon his apprehension, a course, of the pro priety of which, his lordship still retained his former opinion —viz., that it was one which no one had a right to pursue under the circumstances. But he (Lord Campbell) also desired to remove a misapprehension which existed upon the subject of his remarks at the trial. It had been said that he denied there was ever any right to search a person taken into custody for felony. That was far from being his opinion. In cases of felony, such a right no doubt existed, and might be most properly and usefully exercised. His lordship had, however, understood from a most use ful public officer, Sir R. Mayne-,to whom the coun try was highly indebted for the manner in which he had on all occasions exercised his important duties—that an idea had got abroad that to search a person taken into custody on the charge of the commission of a felony was illegal. Such a doctrine had never been laid down by him, nor did he believe its would ever be laid down from the bench upon which he had the honour to sit. On the contrary, he had no hesitation in saying that it might often be highly conducive to the ends of justice that a person should be searched ; but he would again say, that when a tradesman of London was apprehended under a warrant from an alderman, merely because be had not appeared when summoned, to search his person in the manner in which the plaintiff's had been searched was contrary to law. The only pretence was that he might commit suicide or attack the alderman—a most absurd supposition. Mr. O'Malley (with whom was Mr. Lush) said his lordship had very clearly distinguished between the case where a prisoner ought to be searched, and where not at the trial. The learned counsel then addressed himself to the question before the Court, and contended that under the 11 and 12 Viet., c. 43 and 44, the summons issued by the alderman was amply satisfied by the ap pearance of the attorney and counsel. The cases of " King v. Simpson" (1 Strange 46), " the Queen v. Hardwick" (2 Strange 110), " the Queen v. Tanner" (2 Lord Raym 1,284), were cited in support. , Mr. H. Hill and Mr. Willes contended that the alder man was protected from this action under the act 11 and 12 Vict.,c. 44. The ourt took time to consider. BAIL COURT—JAN. 13. Sittings at Nisi Prins.' (Before Mr. Justice Erle and Common Juries.) POINT OF PRACTICE. Mr. Justice Erle said the judges had made a rule ap plicable to executions after verdict in term. Under this rule execution was to issue within 14 days after verdict. This would be the general rule, subject to exceptions in case of special circumstances, such as the defendant mak ing away with his goods. The rule would take effect from the present day. CLAPSON AND WIPE V. ALLEN. This was an action to recover damages from the defend ant, a linen draper in High-street, Kensington, for in jury sustained, from the defendant's negligence, by the female plaintiff, whose husband is a plasterer and dealer in marine stores at Kensington. It appeared that on the night of the 16th Oct. last, about 12 o'clock, Mrs. Clapson went to the defendant's shop to make a purchase. Whilst she was there the shutters were put up and the door fastened. She inquired the way out, and was directed by the defendant to proceed through a private duor and then turn to the left, in doing which she fell down a trap-door and broke her leg. She was attended by a surgeon, who discovered that two of her uncle bones had been fractured, in consequence of which she was confined to her bed for a month, and was obliged for some time after to walk on crutches. Plaintiff, who was much from home, was obliged to close his shop during the greater part of his wife's illness. Mr. Lush put the defendant into the box, who stated that Mrs. Clapson left the shop without inquiring the rfollowing been shown ow p n e r t s h o e n w c a a y l le . d T ue went admitted,m a who n on cross examination, o ha ss d jw e u x as a yt m bo i e n uft ion, that when the writ was served on him, he said the woman was drunk, and he should repeat that statement. Mrs. Clapson and another witness were recalled, and both positively swore that she was quite sober. Mr. Justice Erie, in summing up, said that a man might keep a private house as lie chose, but if he invited the public into his house, and they were exposed to dan ger from which any injury arose, he must be liable f or it. Verdict for the plaintiff, with damages to the hus band and 201. to the wife. COURT OF BA NICRUPTCY—JAN. 13., (Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.) IN RE A. A. LACKERSTEEN. The bankrupt was described as an East India mer chant, of Broad-street-buildings. This was the certifi cate meeting, but the bankrupt did not appear, and it was stated that he had left the country. The accounts, which were published at the time of the last examina tion showed an amount of 27,0001. d ue to un c overed creditors ; 43,0001. to those holding the acceptances of J. G. Lacy ; and 176,000/. to creditors holding goods as security. There has been a dividend of ls. in the pound on the debts proved. Mr. Lowrance said he appeared for the assignees in this case ; but he was informed that the bankrupt had left this country, and presumed that no one was instructed to appear for him. He did not know what course his Honour would pursue under the circum stances—whether to adjourn the consideration of the certificate sine die, or to refuse it altogether. In a similar case --that of Bunyard, a seedsman, in Mark-lane—the court, in the absence of the bankrupt, and upon the application of the assignees, had gone fully into the case, and had wholly refused the certificate. He did not ask the court to take that course in the pre sent instance. The assignees had no particular objec tion except what appeared on the face of the balance sheet ; and this would certainly have involved a long suspension, for reckless trading, of a very serious nature. His Honour said he had been requested not to enter into this matter at the time, as, in order to make out the case, it was necessary to get certain information from the other side the world. Had the information been obtained ? Mr. Lowrance said he understood the Oriental Bank had a case to prefer, and also Messrs. Collmann and Stolterfoht. Mr. Lowe (representing Messrs. Chatfield and Hart) said the Oriental Bank wished the certificate to be ad ourned altogether. The Commissioner—Do you mean refused altogether ? If I am to. do that I must go into a long discussion ; and Ido not see of what use that is. I grant him no pro tection ; and you may send out and take any steps you think proper, as he has not chosen to come here and ask for his certificate. After looking through part of the proceedings, His Honour maid —I think if the assignees are satisfied that frauds have be en committed, it is a duty w hich they owe to the credito rs an d to the public to take the neces sary steps for bringing this man to justice. Mr. Lawrance—The difficulty is in knowing what steps to take. H e h as left the country, and we under stand has gone to Australia. The Commissioner —But if he has committed a crime in this country, surely there must be some ordinary means of getting at him in any part of the Queen's do minions. Mr. Lawrance—The course would be for the Oriental Bank, or any other creditor aggrieved, to prefer his bill of indictment for the particular fraud alleged to have been committed by the bankrupt. His Honour asked what dividend had been received ? Mr. Canaan replied 1,3001., upon which a dividend of ls. in the pound had been paid. His Honour —How much are . the debts Mr. Cannan—The debts and liabilities aro about 120,000/. Some further assets are expected—the pro duce of consignments to Bombay and China, and from other sources —about 1,2001. probably. His Honour ultimatety observed that the assignees and the Ori ental Bank o ught to well consider the course they intend e d to take. For his own par t, th oug h h e might not b e empowered to order a prosecution, he would say thi s much, that if the assignees considered it their duty t o i nstitute any proceed i ngs aga i ns t th e bank rupt, he w ou ld sanction all the expenses necessary f or that purp ose . Surely the man w h o b e h ave d so fraudu lently to hi s creditors shoul d no t b e a ll owe d t o go un punished —a man wh os e conduct greatly deserved the treadmill. Th e meeting woul d b e a dj ourne d till t h e Ist of July nex t, w i thout protection. A t a ll events, l et the bankrupt be got at either by civil or criminal process. Adjourned accordingly, without protection. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT—JAN. 13. (Before Mr. Commissioner Phillips.) IN THE MATTER OF TAMES FRY.-SINGULAR. CASE. Mr. Nichols applied on the part of the insolvent for a day to b e named for the protect i ng or d er un d er s i ngu l ar circumstanc es . T he insolvent, w h o h a d been a m ill er at Sunbury, Mid dlesex, was heard under the Protection Act som e ti me back, and Mr. Macrae, the barrister, ipposed fo r a creditor named Impey. No day was named for the final order, with leave to apply for protection in three months. Being without protec tion, the insolvent was arrested, and confined in Maidstone gaol. S u b sequen tly he applied for a pro tecting order and discharge, and obtained both with out giving noti ce to Mr. Impey. A n a ppli ca ti on was afterwards mad e to the full court, an d th e protecting order was rescinded because notice had not been given, and the insolvent left without p order was rescinded on ro tection, with permis sion to apply in a m on th. Th e the 6th Decemb er, and on the 21st o f th e sa me month he was arrested a t t h e suit of Mr. Impey, an d was now confined' in Gloucester Gaol. As the month had ex pired, the present application was made to have a day named for a protecting order. The chief clerk (Mr. Simpson) said that as the insol vent was now in Gloucester Gaol, an, order must issue to the keeper, -to bring him before the court. Mr. Commissioner Phillips directed an order to issue to the gaoler, to bring the insolvent up from Gloucester, and for a day to be named when he might apply for a protecting order. The 31d inst. was appooirited for the further hearing of this singular case. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL.—Toanna Neville, a decent-looking young woman, was placed before Alderman Wire, charged with attempting to commit suicide. John Ware, the pierman at Blackfriar's-bridge, stated that his wife was bringing him his supper about eleven o'clock on Wednesday night, when she saw the prisoner preceding her towards the dummy, on reaching which she (prisoner) endeavoured to get under the rails for the purpose of plunging into the water, when witness's wife seized her by the clothing and detained her until witness arrived. The prisoner told witness that she had been seduced by a man who had since refused to acknowledge the child, and being unable to support it she determined to destroy herself. Inquiry was made of .the prisoner's late mistress, in whose service she had been up to seven o'clock on the previous evening, when she discharged herself, leaving the following note : " May the Lord have mercy on us. My dear friend, before this letter reaches you perhaps I shall be no more. Ay mind is very unhappy, and I cannot live to bear any longer this want, distress, and disgrace which I have brought on myself by giving myself up to him. Ho has used mo in a most shameful manner. lie knows he is the father of my child ; but I bear him no malice. I only wish that his conscience may prick him when he lies down in his bed, for there is ono God that knows all. I now take my last farewell of all my dear friends and my dear mother ; I wish you all and my dear baby to follow me to my grave." This letter was addressed to Charles Love, a letter carrier in the Post-office, who, she stated, had seduced her. She had tried in two courts to compel him to sup port the child, but the witnesses who gave evidence were not thought sufficient to enable the magistrates to make an order. Her child was at wet nurse in Ber mondsey, and she had paid ss. per week hitherto, but being unable to keep up that payment, she was reduced to the greatest distress of mind. Alderman Wire said the fact of the father of the child refusing to support it was not the question ho had to de termine upon. The prisoner was charged with an offence against the laws of God and man, and it was for that he had to punish her. However, a. 9 her mistress declined, under the circumstances, to receive her back into her service, he would remand her f9r further inquiries to be made into all the facts of the case. Alderman Wire begged to acknowledge the receipt of 10/, for the poor-box from the Leathersellers' Company. CLERKEN WELL. A prepossessing, respectable looking young woman, na med Green, a servant,. applied to Mr. Tyrwhitt for his a dvice and assistance under the following peculiar circumstances : It appeared from her statement that, in December last, she left her situation with a lady at Tunbridge Wells, and came to London, when she applied to " The Na tional Guardian Institution for hiring Servants," &c., No. 46, Bedford-row, for the purpose of becom ing a member. Her name was taken down, and she paid five shillings. Her mistress was applied to for a character, and she forwarded a letter to the institu tion speaking highly of her. She (applicant), however, procured a situation herself at Hanwell, and on applying to the institution for her character they refused to give it to her, and although she explained to them that the lady at Hanwell would feel perfectly satisfied with the written character, she could not prevail upon them to deliver it up to her, and thus she was kept out of her situation and thrown on the world, and prevented get ting her livelihood. She wrote to her mother at Ton bridge, requesting her to apply to her late mistress for another written character, and explain the circumstances as to the detention of the one she had already given her by the institution, but this the lady refused to do, say ing she would not be troubled any further in the matter. Mr. Tyrwhitt thought it a very peculiar proceeding on the part of the institution, and he directed an , officer to accompany the applicant and make inquiries, and, if possible, to cause the character to be delivered up to her. They shortly afterwards returned, and said the institu tion refused to deliver up the character, it being contrary to the rules. Mr. Tyrwhitt said that the "National Guardian In stitution" exhibited anything but a respectable figure in the affair. He would bear it in mind. The young woman left the court convulsed with grief LAMBETH.—James Mitchell and Joke Smith, the 'former a middle-aged man, and the latter a well-dressed youth, were charged with being concerned with Fre admeri.curkn. t ß por u fi t n l 7 e co r eo a dl. nd others not yet apprehended, with bur glariously breaking int o th e prem i ses o f M r . Th omas Prince, a jewell er , i n B ec kf or d- row, Walworth-roa d , an d carrying away prop er ty o f var i ous d escr i pt i ons to t h e deposed that on Friday night last his shop and premises were secured as usual, and on coming down on the following morning to business he discovered that his shop had been erftered in the course of the night and plundered of a vast quantity of valuable property. The entrance to the shop had been effected by a skylight in the roof being forced open and a sort of rope or line lad der suspended from a gimblet worked into the frame. The prisoner Mitchell had been in his employment for about twelve months, but had left about six or seven months ago. Smith, he (Mr. Prince) knew by sight, and he recollected that about a month ago he had ap plied to him for a situation. He (witness) was in .the habit of keeping a cash-box under his bed, and he did not think it improbable that the fact of his doing so was known to Mitchell. William Postell deposed that about the 29th or 30th of last month the prisoner Mitchell came to his house, and informed him that there was a cash-box deposited under the bed of Mr. Prince, in Beckford-row, Wal worth-road, and asked him if he would assist iim in getting it. Mitchell further stated that it would be very that easyo getting ur t intoet andr it the by conservatory .rnc g e twerehe back or of greenhouse,tllgenerallye i p e ta m hne i d s sehs added,,o panod an evening, and that at that time the servants were usu ally in the idtchen. Witness declined having anything to do with it. Mitchell called on him several days after, and said he had got a man to assist him, and that they had attempted to get at the cash-box the Saturday night before ; that they had got up at Mr. Peacock's, the builder's, but were disturbed by a boy coming to Mr. Peacock's with some butter. He said the person who was to assist him was a person named Smith, a young man about 19 years of age, with dark hair and eyes, residing in Trafalgar-street, Walworth, and who had been occasionally employed by him. On Monday Mitchell again called on him, and said that the robbery had been effected, and that he had expected Smith to call at his house for his "regulars," as he had told him (Smith). where the cash-box was. The prisoner Mitchell here said that it was the witness who had first proposed the robbery, and in the course of their conversations used frequently to ask if there was much " sugar" about Mr. Prince's ; by which expression " sugar "he meant " cash." The prisoner went on to say also that the witness had been discharged from his employment for dishonest practices, and had lived for some time in Kent-street. The witness anied this, and said his character for years would bear the strictest investigation. He ad mitted that he had talked familiarly with the prisoner Mitchell about robberies, but his motive in doing so was to get information from him. Prisoner : You know very well that you said that you would not be committed for any paltry affair, and that if you got taken it would be fora grand haul. • The witness repeated that his observations to the prisoner were made for the solo purpose of getting in formation from him. Mr. Superintendent Lund said he went in search of the prisoner Mitchell on the evening before, and met him near the Catholic Church, in the St. George's-road. Addressing him, he asked him if he had ever been in the service of Mr. Prince, in the Walworth-road, and on his answering in the affirmative, he told him who he was, and said he must take him into custody for being con cerned in a burglary on Mr. Prince's premises on the Friday night before, and removed him in a cab to the Walworth station. At the station-house the pri soner said he would tell the truth, and made the fol lowing statement, which he (Mr. Lund) took down in writing :—"About a fortnight since a man named Smith -came and asked me if there was any money about Mr. Prince's, for if there is, says he, I'm —if I must not have it in some form or some how. The most likely way to enter Mr. Prince's premises will be by getting on the leads of Mr. Peacock's, the builder. I told him there was a cash-box under Mr. Prince's bed, as I had seen it when cleaning the windows. Smith then told me he must break into the house sometime, and said he had attempted the robbery on the Saturday night week, but that they were disturbed by a butterman coming to Mr. Pea cock's. I told Postell that I expected Smith to do i.;; very soon. Smith called at my house on Tuesday or Wednesday, and asked me to go out with him, but I re fused, and he then said he had got a party who would very soon assist him in doing it, and you shall see me after the robbery. Smith did call at my house after the robbery, but I was out ; and that is all I know about ' Sergeant Q u i nnear sa id h e accompan i e d his superin tendent to the house, No. 8, Trafalgar-street, Walworth, aed there took the prisoner Smith into custody. At the s Cation-house, and when brought into the presence of etitchell, the latter at once pointed him out as the per son he had mentioned in his statement. Smith's reply. N vas, "I don't care what you say. I dare say you. com mitted the robbery yourself, and wanted to lay it on n ie." The prisoner Smith called three or four witnesses with the view of proving an alibi, but in this they signally E and both prisoners were remanded. HAMMERSMITH.—John Gaywood, an omnibus &river, badge No. 3,467, the son of a proprietor, ap )ared before Mr. Paynter, to answer a summons charg in .g him with having been guilty of wilful misbehaviour d wring his employment in not carrying a passenger to his destination when requested to do so. Mr. Robert James, a gentleman residing at No. 2, Atfithchurch Villas, New-road, Starch- green , d epose d that between 11 and 12 o'clock on the night of the 4th inst. bZ entered the defendant' s omn ib us a t Notting -ha , and a that time there was a conductor in charge of the v ehicle, but on reaching the gate at Shepherd's-bush he q witted his post, after having taken his fare, and also fi •om another inside passenger, and the defendant then d rove on without a conductor. He proceeded along tl ie New-road, and upon reaching a point about a q darter of a mile from the destination of the omnibus thich was beyond wit ness ' s res id ence, he stopped', a nd his (witness's) fellow-passenger alighted. The eiefendant immediately turned his horses round, and be- I tore witness was aware of his intention, drove off in a ; contrary direction to the end of his journey. Witness got on to the step of the omnibus, and called out as loudly as the possibly could to the defendant, as he knew that he was very deaf. No notice was taken by the defendant, who continued to drive on, and as it was raining very fast, witness was desirous that he should be conveyed to his home, as the omnibus would pass if the defendant drove the whole distance. Witness, therefore, climbed on the roof, and then crawled along to the front seat, and made the defendant aware of his presence. He told the driver that he had not finished his journey, and re quested him to turn his horses, and take him where he wanted to get down. The defendant stoutly refused to turn his horses, and said he was driving to the stables, and he (witness) might go there also. Mr. Paynter asked the defendant the reason he did not turn his horses again when the complainant spoke to him, after he had climbed on to the roof. The question having been repeated by one of the sum moning officers in the defendant's ear, he said the gravel in the road was so very heavy, and the complainant told him that he would have his three-pennyworth out of the omnibus. Mr. Paynter said the complainant had a very good right to have his three-pennyworth. He, however, con sidered the defendant a very improper person to be an omnibus driver. He fined him 20s. and 2s. costs, and awarded half the penalty to the complainant. The complainant desired that the 10s. might be added to the funds of the poor-box. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN-(AMER SHAM BRANCH) A very crowded meeting of the landowners, lessees, occupiers, and others interested in supp or ti ng th e pro posed railway from the Watford s t a tion, on the London and North-Western Railway, through Rickmansworth, Chorley Wood, Chenies, and Chalfont, St. Giles, to Amersham, was held at the Griffin Inn, Amersham, on Wednesday. Mr. WILLIAM WELLER •having been called to the chair, __ Mr. WEST said that the present railway was to be constructed by the London and North- Western Company, and he trusted there would be no division of opinion amongst them to prevent its being carried out, as he was satisfied the railway must prove of the greatest importance to both towns. Some persons were of opinion that trade might be injured if their customers were placed too closely in communica tion with the metropolitan markets; but they must re collect that they would have the same advantage, which, united with their skill and experience, would prevent their losing any great portion of their trade, which would be more than compensated by the increase of the sur rounding neighbourhood, and the flood of wealth which would come in in consequence of the improved means of communication. Things were not now as they formerly were—business was transacted faster, and larger profits were made through quicker and increased returns. Then let them consider the great advantage to life of being placed within an hour of the best medical advice the king dom could afford, great danger often ensuing through the delays which now prevailed in obtaining a second opinion. He looked upon railways as the great emancipator of the human race. By them the people became freer both in mind and body ; and if work was scarce in one place, they could easily move, at the expense of a id. a mile, to look for employment elsewhere. He, therefore, begged to move—" That, considering the population and the elements of the great traffic in and about the district through which the proposed railway from Watford sta tion to Amersham is intended to be made, there exists the necessity of a more ready and expeditious commu nication with the metropolis ; and that it would be ex tremely beneficial and advantageous that the proposal of the London and North-West9rn Railway Company to make a line from the station at Watford through Rick mansworth, Chorley Wood, Chenies, and Chalfont St. Giles, to Amersharn, be approved and accepted." (Cheers.) _ _ Mr. MORTON had great pleasure in rising to second the resolution. The resolution was carried unanimously amidst loud cheers. The Hon. C. C. CAVENDISH, M.P., moved the next resolution for the appointment of a committee to endea vour to obtain the assent of the various landowners of the district to the proposed line, and thanking the Lon don and North-Western Company for their liberal con duct in proposing to make the line. Mr. BLAKE seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. The committee having been formed, a vote of thanks to the chairman closed the proceedings. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.

A few clays ago, the animal was accidentally left unfastened, and when the cook went to carry him his food, ho rushed on her, and mutilated her arm in a dreadful way. Her cries attracted her master to the spot ; he attempted to seize the animal, but he rushed on him. Fortunately the gentleman was a bl e to se i ze h i m by the throat. The dog rose on his hind legs, and attempted to break away from him. After a violent struggle both dog and master fell ; the latter, however, still continued to grasp the throat, and at length he got the dog's head beneath his knees, and pressed it so tightly that he made him howl piteously. The animal, finding himself beaten, gave up the conflict, and allowed himself to be fastened up. It was, however, deemed prudent to kill him. SINGULAR ENTHUSIASM FOR THE FRENCH EMPEROR. —A singular case has just been submitted to the tri bunal of the Juge-de-Pair at Toulouse. Louis Napo leon, in the course of his visit to that city in the month of October last, appeared to be much struck with the enthusiasm with which a party of ladies in a hatter's shop in the Rue St. Etienne, cried " Vi ve l ' Empereur ! Vive Louis Napoldon !" and be threw to them a bou quet of artificial flowers which he carried in his hand. The bouquet was picked up by the hatter, and presented by him either to one of the l a di es , a MadameS—, or to his little child, whom his wife was carrying in her arms. Which of the two it was could not in the confusion be accurately ascertained ; but Madame took the bouquet home with her. The hatter subsequently obtained it from her, and intimated that he should not return it. Madame S— insisted that it was her property, as' he had presented it her, and that she had only lent it to him to show to a sick person ; the hatter, on the contrary, maintained that it was his, and that he had only let her take it home to show her husband. The dispute grew " fast and furious," and as there was no likelihood of its being brought to a friendly conclusion, Madame 'S—• cited the hatter before the Judge -de-Fair to have him condemned t o g i ve up the bo uquet. The judge, after making a searching investigation into the facts of the case, was unable to come to any Other con clusion than that Madame S--, and Madame B—, the hatter's wife, had displayed equal enthusiasm for the Emperor, and that there was nothing to show that his Majesty had destined the bouquet for either of them in particular ; he therefore, like another Solomon. decided that it should be equally divided, and that in the event of the latter refusing to give up half of it, he should pay 100 fr. THE ATTEMPT TO BURN A VILLAGE.—The several acts of incendiarism committed near Newport Pagnel, in volving the destruction of a vast amount of property, and more lamentable still the loss of two lives, of which this hitherto undisturbed little town has been the scene within the last three weeks, are now the subject of official inquiry. From the preliminary investigation made by the local authorities, sufficient transpired t o satisfy them th a t th e several fires were not only wilful and malicious, but that from the persevering and metho dical manner in which they had been carried into effect, more than one person must be implicated. In accord ance with the request of the local authorities the Home office has sent down three active officers from Scotland yard, who have so far pursued their inquiries as to have gained somethine , like a clue to the perpetrat ors o f t h e atrocious acts. something reward of 2001., and a free pardon from her Majesty to any one coming forward to give such evidence as will fix the guilt upon the offenders, is to be made public to-morrow. It may be stated that suspicion attaches to parties not of the labouring class. THE HAVRE CUSTOMS.—The receipts of the Customs in the port of Havre, in 1852, amounted to 34,611,401 f., showing an increase of 8,527,229 f., as compared with those of 1851. The increase was divided as follows : Foreign sugars, 2,650,000 f. ; colonial sugar, 916,000 f. ; tobacco, 76,000 f. ; merchandise, but co t ton i n particu lar, 4,800,000 f. here was a diminution in the boun. ties on export of 94,130 f. ; those paid in 1852 being only 100,016 f., while they had amounted in 1851 to 194,146 f. AGES OF AMERICAN PRESIDENTS,--Franklin Pierce is the youngest man who has ever been elected President. He is 48 years of age. Washington, John Adams, Jef ferson, Maddison, M unroe, J ohn Quincy Adams, and Van Buren, were each 58, Jackson 62, Harrison 68, Taylor, 66, and Polk 49. MILD WINTER.—The mean temperature of the last month (December) at Greenwich was 46°7 Fahrenheit, —the highest, probably, for that month since the regis tering by thermometer has been employed. The mean for December for the last 40 years is about 39°4 ; there fore the December of 1852 has been 7 ° 3-10ths in excess, or above the mean ; and the thermometer only descended once below the freezing point. Th e quant i ty o f ra i n w hich fell durin g th e month was two inches, making in all for the past year (1852) a depth of 351 inches at Greenwich, and the wettest year during the last 40 years. PORT NATAL.—Colonel Boys, the acting Lieutenant Governor of Port Natal, in his speech to the Council, , states that the estimated balance in the Tre asi , l ,7 o / 01, Advances unrecovered for 1853 are taken and including that sum he estimates the raetveriue as 49,8301., and the expenditure at 47 016/. 19s. But the estimated revenue includes 9,0001. under land sales per drawb ac k certificates ; and as t h e ex p en diture also includ es th e li ke sum under i mm i gra ti on per certificates, it i s necessar y, in order to show tihethteruseamree sult, to d e d uct t h at amoun t from each, which leaves the net estimated re v enue 40,8301., and aumentations expenditure 38,0161. 19s.
