ity .k :,•-, N BRIGHTON AND CONTINENTAL f STEAM-PACKET COMPANY. (From the Sussex Advertiser.) We last week gave a brief but interesting account of the trial performances of the Brighton, one t heo_f aplendid steamers built for the " Brighton and Conti nental Steam-packet Company," and intended to run between Newhaven, Di e pp e , an d Havre. F or that ac count we were indebted to a friend,- but we have this week had the privilege, through thecourtHotham,y of the the Hon. Captain Hotham, one of the di re c t o rs com pany, of ourselves witnessing the admirable powers not only of the Brighton, but of its, in m i ry respect, twin sister, the Dieppe. To our read!rs in this dis trict the first introduction of these vessels to the " wide waters of the deep" will naturally be amatter interest, and we therefore propose to give of much a description of the passage on Friday blast, when the Brighton and the Dieppe left their moorings at Limehouse and Blackwell to take up their station at Shoreham, ' whence they will run to Dieppe and Havre, until such dine as the needful arrangements at Newhaven are com pleted. la terming these boats twin sisters, we are speaking with perfect accuracy, for they are precisely . similar in their build, their admeasurement, their engines,stttle i machinery, in fact, in every respect, even to the un important item in their fittings. U nder such circum stances it is only natural that there should not be—nor is there—any perceptible difference in their power, as will appear from the following account of their passage. It may not be out of place here to remark as to the care which has been evinced for the passenger accommoda tion in these vessels. The cabins are lofty, roomy, and well lighted, and are fitted up with every attention both to comfort and appearance. The ladies' cabin is parti cularly elegant in its appointments. The ceiling is dead white, with handsome ornamental mouldings of white and gold, contrasting well with the doors and sides, which are of polished mahogany, pannelled with bird's-eye maple. The easy chairs, luxurious sofas, mirrors, lamps, marble chimney-piece, and polished steel stove of appropriate size and design, all impart an appearance of comfort and elegance to this apartment, which brings to mind the boudoir rather than the cabin. In addition to the two principal cabins is a small private cabin, adapted for a family wishing for seclusion, and a most comfort able little " snuggery" for a whist party, or any other m all and select riunion. The sleeping berths are com amodiously arranged and adapted to the demands of a far longer passage than that for which these boats are in tended. The Brighton was lying at Blackwell, and at four o'clock, having taken in her supply of coal—or rather of the patent fuel, recently invented—proceeded to Lime house in search of her consort, the Dieppe, which was moored in Limehouse reach. On board the Brighton were Captain Hotham and Joseph Thompson, Esq., two of the directors of the Brighton and Continental Steam packet Company; J. B. Jackson, Esq., as guest of the latter gentleman; and Mr. Hawtree, of the firm of Penn and Co., the celebrated engineers (with whose engines both the Brighton and the Dieppe are fitted), the vessel being under the command of Captain Scott. At a quarter past five, the vessels being all in readiness, and having made Blackwell again, started finally from that point on their voyage. Owing to the lateness of the hour, the ebb was lost and the lowness of the tide was such as to preclude any very great speed being at tempted. Still both vessels progressed at a rapid rate, and before six o'clock Erith Pier and the Powder Maga zine at Parileet were passed. At the trial mile opposite the Long Reach Tavern, we were, however, anxious to ascertain the precise rate at which the vessels were going, and on timing them to the next mile post, it was found that the distance had been completed in exactly four minutes and twenty seconds, being within a mere frac tion of fourteen miles an hour, with a head wind, shallow water, and tide just turned. In Long Reach the vessels lay to for some half dozen minutes while taking on board their powder, after which they again proceeded on their voyage. Hythe was soon passed, and here we had a ca pitol view of Ingriss Abbey, the seat of Alderman Har mer, said to be built with the stone of Old London bridge. In an hour and thirteen minutes from the time of starting we were off Gravesend. We may here stop to confirm the remark made by our correspondent last week as to the almost entire freedom of the Brighton from all vibratory or oscillatory motion. Though pos ing through the water at so rapid a rate, she was as "steady as old Time," as one of the crew observed— a quality greatly affecting the comfort of a passenger, whether on deck or below. It woula be tedious to the reader to particularise the periods at which we made the various " points" of the voyage; suffice it to say, that at eight o'clock we passed the Nore Light, and that at a quarter to ten, precisely four hours and a half from the time of leaving Blackwell (inclusive of stoppages), we were off Margate. Here we-lay to for the night, amply satisfied with the manner in which the vessel had accom plished her voyage. At five next morning orders were given to weigh anchor, and the " two sisters" set out again—this time in search of adventures, Captain Hotham and the gallant commanders of these splendid vessels having on the previous night held a council of war, and having determined to get round to Folkestone, in order to have a trial of speed with the boat for Boulogne, which that invaluable mentor, "Bradsha w " chronicled as s t ar ti ng from Folkeston e a t e i g h t o'clock. 'On reaching the latter plate we parted with Mr. Hawtree, who was compelled to he in town by a certain hour, and having duly dis parched the important business of breakfasting, we wilted somewhat impatiently for the appearance of the Clementine, on board of whom it was plain that the preparations for The voyage were nearly completed. At length up went the " blue Peter," and the wished-for enent arrived, the Clementine steaming gallantly out of the harbour, and directing her course towards Bon loene. At this time (eight minutes past eight) the B Dighton and the Dieppe were pretty close in shore, and when the Clementine had got into her right course, they waited upon her" on either side. This state of things, however, did not last long, for although the Gementine did not 3 ield without a struggle, in ten minutes' time she was distanced a distance which was steadily but rapidly increased, in spite of her having her sails set, while neither of her opponents had an inch of canvass out. At the end of a trifle short of fifty minutes we encountered the ally of the Clementine, making her voyage from the opposite c. Ist. At this time it was calculated by those on board thee we were from twelve to thirteen miles from the English shore, and that we were from two-and-a-half to three miles in advance of the Clementine. On meeting the Prince Ernest, for such was the steamer from Bou In erne the Brighton made a sweep so as to give the Prince , ut half a mile " law," the Dieppe getting round in LI tie to get a nearer start with his Highness. It was soln perceptible, that, however, in " earnest" he might b the Prince must share the sad fate of his fair friend Clementine ; a very short time sufficed to bring up the Ittighton alongside, and a few minutes more left the Prince to bewail his lot. By the time we had again retched Folkestone it was a quarter to ten. Here b. th the Brighton and Dieppe tacked round and returned tes etarala-theelcines e -befereevehom he.y. cressecl., reeking, . by way of salute, such obeisance as we believe is termed in nautical phrase " dipping" their colours. At the 111 iment Prince Ernest entered the mouth of the harbour it wanted but six iniuntes to ten, showing that in addition to he half mile of " law," which we has given at sten in e. the Brighton had got home nine minutes in advance of her opponent. This result strictly bears out the fo-mer calculation made as to the Clementine, vis e as to our having beaten her by a distance of between tw and a halt and three mil. s. Having accomplished this triumph, the victorious vessels steered westward to yards their destination. In precisely one hour we m rule Dung enese, and at t we l ve o ' c l oc k were passing in front of Hastings and St. Leonards, on whose shores et ere collected crowds of spectators, in honour of whom both vessels• fired a salute. On leaving Folkestone w.. 1 had encJuntered a slight breeze from the west w urd, which gradually gained strength as we prog ressed in that direction, and on rounding Beachy Head, at a little past one o'clock„ the breeze stiffened into what sailors call " half a gale," but which, according to our " land-lubbers' " estimate, we should have been dsposed to rate as a stiff breeze, it being, moreover, dead ahead of us. However, both vessels sped steadily or wards, walking through the water in admirable stele, and keeping so close to each other, that it was impossible to decide which was the faster of the two. If there be any difference, it is perhaps in favour of the Eneppe, but as the steam of her consort was not up during the only period where the former seemed to gain a slight advantage, that circumstance would amply account for the very slight and temporary difference on -e attained during the morning. On passing East bourne the signal gun again sent forth a salute from it 1 brazen throat, while on reit-thing Newhaven harbour bieh steamers paid a similar tribute of respect to the scene of their future labours. Precisely at a quarter past two we were closely in front of the Chain Pier, Brighton, beP, there was too much sea, as well as too mu c h wind etet to allow of landing there ; the vessel s , consequently, preceeded to Shoreham, opposite the harbour of w hi ch h . lch they were at 35 min u t es p ast two, thus running the dis ta..ce between th e pi er an d t h e harbour in precisely 2 0 - nvnutes. Owing to th e sta t e o f t h e tide, both vessels rest on to Worthing, whence they returned in due cours e , bet were obliged to l a y t o t ill t h e t i de was sufficiently i n to enable them to enter the harbour. Thus passed the first voyage of the Brighton and the Dieppe, and we earnestly trust that the success which h :5 attended their early efforts may await on their fu ture course. At present, we believe, we may confidently assert, that they are the fastest boats which have been constructed. It is whispered that the Newhav en , which is in the course of compl e ti on , w ill however sun ernes them. In the present age of exertion and enter prise, it is apparently impossible to place any limits as to what science and skill can or cannot effect ; but if th e builder of the Newhaven achieve a victory over th . splendid boats we have above spoken of, he will riehty deserve all the success he may gain. For tha present the Brighton and Continental Steam Com pany's boats will run from Shoreham to Dieppe noel Havre, but so soon as the railroad from Newhaven is opened, and the other necessary arrangements are upleted, they will take up their permanent station at Newhaven. By means of these boats and through the fa ilities afforded by the railway on this, and those on th- opposite shore, the most direct communication be tw en the great capitals of England and Frani° will now be opened. It is only in strict accordance with the spirit of the times that an enterprize, having such an object in view, should be pre-eminently successful. That such a result may attend the exertions of the Brighton and Con tiaental Steam-packet Company is our earnest hope--a Nlfeprisl i esbich we shall, we feel assure d, b e j o i ned, not .--rorn,elefelifise to whom the prosperity of this district is a eaetttekeeef deep interest, but also by the public at large. ii siyieterthis much, it forms no part of our view to ad- Yeaeatc tlateinterests of this company as against those of ixicly. We egkera the new route as one which, faiiiitiO3, will create, as it were, a new class of a,e*Kiii it will naturally also greatly augment, as fie ver do, the traffic between this country and the ac nent, while the spirit of enterprise which this fresh born competition will induce, will, again, naturally still further extend those facilities. As they augment—as pleasure or business sends its thousands to neighbouring shores, wafting a greeting from their native land—as the means increase of exchanging the products of one soil for the produce of the kill and industry of another, so will the fierce passions of men be stayed, and the great aim and end of civilization be advanced in the dissemi nation' of that blessed principle, " Peace and goodwill towards all men." ELECTION MOVEMENTS. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) ASHBURTON, JUNE 29.—Quite unexpectedly a change in the representation of this borough will take-place, our highly respected Member, to the regret of all political parties in the town, having intimated his intention of resigning previous to the ensuing election, it being his intention to contest Ross-shire with Mr. Mackenzie ; but although Ashburton will have lost the proud honour of having James Matheson, Esq., for its representative, it appears the honoured name of Matheson will still in all probability be associated with the representation of this ancient borough, in the person of Lieut.-Colonel T. Matheson, the respccted brother of the present repre sentative, who arrived here on Saturday evening last, and on Monday a public meeting of the electors took place at the Assembly Rooms, London Inn, J. Sparke Amery, Esq , portreeve, in the chair. The new candi date spoke on the leading political questions of the day to the complete satisfaction of the electors assembled. This day (Tuesday) a canvass has taken place, and we bilieve there is but little doubt of Colonel Matheson's return. He is evidently a gentleman of observation and experience, and a staunch advocate for reform. The following addresses have been issued: — /TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF ASHBURTON. " Gentlemen,—An early dissolution of Parliament being now expected, I beg to announce to you, with many regrets, that I do not intend to offer myself as a candidate for your suffrages at the next election. " Be assured it is no light circumstance that could in duce me to forego the prospect of renewing a connexion which your confidence and kindness have rendered so agreeable to me. But having been requested to stand for the combined counties of Ross and Cremarty (in the former of which I chiefly reside), I have considered it a public duty not to refuse my co-operation in the endea vour making by a numerous body of my brother electors, to secure the support of so influential a constituency to the cause of good government and liberal institutions— a cause in which you take so lively an interest that I am sure, though distant from you, I shall carry with me your best wishes and sympathies. " Although I shall thus cease to be your representa tive in Parliament, I shall always continue to be con nected with you by local. ties, and still more bound to you by feelings of gratitude for acts of kindness received at your hands. The general interests, therefore, of your borough, the improvement of its tr a d e , th e employment of its working classes, and the promotion of the welfare of its inhabitants, collectively and individually, will ever command my best services and attention. " I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, " Your most faithful and obliged servant, " JAMES MATHESON. " 13, Cleveland-row, London, June 26, 1847." "To THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH • THE SUN, OF ASHBURTON. " Gentlemen,—Your present Member Mr. Matheson, pressed by a strong and earnest appeal from the friends of the Liberal cause in Ross-shire, has been induced to offer himself as a candidate for the representation of that county, at the approaching election. " Actuated by a desire to promote and uphold those political principles which have ever been avowed by the electors of Ashburton, I venture to offer myself to your notice, to fill that vacancy which the retirement of my brother will create. Whilst on the principal question of public policy my opinions accord with those of her Ma jesty's present advisers, I deem it the paramount duty of a representative of the people to bring to the considera tion of every subject the exercise of an independent mind and uubiassed judgment. `I shall have much pleasure in more filly declaring my political opinions, and should they receive your !auc tion, I will take the earliest opportunity of soliciting your suffrages. " 1 have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, "Your most obedient faithful servant, "THOMAS MATHESON. " Ashburton, June 28th, 1847." THE EX-PREMIER. ----- The ex-Premier is now in his glory. Exempt from the responsibilities of office and the assaults of Opposi tion, from the reluctant hostility of Sir R. Inglis, and the unsparing wild-fire of Disraeli—from the taunts of the forsaken and the irony of the outdone—and, better than all besides, delivered from the necessity of making and listening to Parliamentary speeches in a sultry June, Sir Robert has betaken himself to the most inglorious tranquillity of Tamworth and the unoppressive festivi ties of the Trent Valley. There, amid scenes which soothe and listeners who applaud, docile admirers or silent foes, he consecrates the altar of Peace with an appropriate sacrifice to Commerce. The undertaking which he began in 1845 he consummates in 1847. The rails are laid, the works are completed, and the car e riages h ave run on t h e very so il o f w hich h turned the first sod in that memorable year. What, a contrast between the inauguration of that day and the celebration of last Saturday Not more unlike is June to November, cloud to sunshine, and fog to fruitage—than are the recollections, the hopes, the f e a rs , an the anticipations of the one occasion to those of the other. In the one all is light and cheer ful ; in the other all was heavy, full of fears, full of doubts, and, may be, full of suffering. On the one loomed the dark cloud of a coming famine and the dilemma of an inevitable apostacy. A party was to be abandoned fir a principle ; or a principle maintained at the cost of a convulsion. The question at issue was formidable ; the mental conflict which arose from it tremendous. To be twice a recreant is given to few Ministers with impunity. But to be a recreant after restored confidence and renewed allegiance, can be ex pected by none without temerity. Yet this was the question —to desert Protection or to brave the people ; to stand by the Corn-laws, or to be twitted with abetting famine ; to be patted on the back by Mr. :slewdegate and the " territorial interest," or to be saluted by Mr. Cobden and " the great towns ;"—more than this ; to be statesman like and provident at the expense of pledges, or staunch at the expense of statesmanship—this it was which brooded heavily on the mind of the Premier Peel. It spoke in every syllable, it sounded in every tone of his tongue and every effort of his spade. It added intensity to his gout, and ponderousness to his commonplaces. Elie mind was not in the Trent Valley, but on those dusky and smoky towns, to whose anxious and tumul tuous multitudes the Trent Valley line was but an in strument of the multiform traffic, the vital interests of which were then at stake. All then was uncertain, lowering, and oppressive. But the change is nowt pleee.- The times and seasons. are not the sale. The scene is not the same. The man is not the same. The verdure of teeming spring and the buoyancy of elastic youth are eloquent in every gesture and every tone of the enfranchised Premier. The fetters are off his hands and the gloom off his mind. He grows young again in the meadows of the Trent and the proxi mity of Tamworth. The Parliamentary garb is still 'bout him, but it is loosely and pleasingly worn. lie has only one dilemma, arta that is, the absence of a dilemma. He has net his three courses to pursue. There is only one before bite, to return thanks on his health being drunk. This, indeed, he diverts from its obvious directness: but his obliquity is neither unnatural nor ungraceful. He makes the acknowledgment of a compliment the vehicle of antiquarian instruction and historical associations. He digresses from himself to Mr. Stephenson, and from Mr. Stephenson to Agricola, with a rapidi t y w hi ch is startling, rather from the junc tion of their n ames t h an the contrast of their actions. But the association is pleasing not only in itself, but because it shows that thirty and odd years of public life have not made Sir Robert forget his Tacitus, and that his poetry has not been repressed by the tug and wear of a long political warfare. These is one point of his speech which, in our admiration of his classical and poetical raptures, we were nearly overlooking, and yet it is too characteristic to escape notice. Speaking of the work the consummation of which he was then watching, he says, " I have given it my suppot t, because I felt confi dent that it must ultimately be completed." This is candour and self-knowledge. It explains a twofold desertion and a twice-braved obloquy. Hereafter, we are confident it will explain a course wherein success may be achieved without obloquy and without desertion. Unless we have much mistaken the character of Sir Robert, he will henceforth be found on the side which is destined to be " ultimately successful." The solemnity at which he assisted was favourable to good nature; and good nature is rife of compliments. Accordingly Sir R. Peel complimented everybody. Contractors, engineers, and navvies came in for his good word. The Manche& ter men were lauded for their energy. Mr. Stephenson wait the antitype of Julius Agricola ; so also— for want of another prototype—was Mr. Bras. say- The day which saw a direct road commenced under Roman auspices from London to Chester, was contrasted with the day which will see London, Ches ter, and Wales, or Scotland, all connected together by a mo z close and far more expeditious route. The com mercial interests which this communication will serve, and the social benefits which it will confer, were elo quently dilated on; nor, while he descanted on the ra pidity with w hi c h London could communicate her wants to Manchester, or Manchester satisfy the demands of London, and likewise on the certainty and velocity with which our few and scanty garrisons in the north could transmit their armed succours to the invaded south, did he forget Ireland; Ireland would be brought nearer. Some, perhaps, of his audience may have felt that she was near enough already. But Sir Robert was toa sanguin e to t hi nk of aught evil. Plague, famine, and beggi ng fl e d b efore his imagina tive view o f wea l th, commerce, andcomfort. What he would not realise they would not remember. So, the leader of her Majesty's Opposition (by ceeirtesy) has dexterously seised another opportunity of wafting his kindly sympathies to Ireland from the midst of an assembly which recent events might be supposed to have rendered rather sulky towards the sister isle. It was a happy spirit which breathed in his words. May his experience justify his hope ! In office he failed where all others have failed equally. Out of office he has time, and we are glad to see a wish, for study. We will, there fore, refer him to his favourite model, and trust that a Minister " under four sovereigns," may, at the close of his career, discover that which was early known to the deputy of one Emperor, Legione and et modicis auxiliis obtineri Hiberniam posse.—Times. EXTRAORDINARY HEAT OF THE:WEATHER.---011 Monday the barometer at the Royal Humane Society's receiving -house, in Hy - de-park, stood from eleven, A.M., to five P M., in the suu at 101 deg. of Fahrenheit, and in the shade at 83 deg. LONDON, THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1847. LAW INTELLIGENCE. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT, June 29. (Before Sir L. SHADWELL HANSARD V. HANSARD. Mr. J. Parker, with Mr. Rolt and Mr. Soutbgate, applied for an injunction to restrain the defendant, James Hansard, late partner in the firm of Hansard and Co., printers to the House of Commons, from direct ing the sheriff of Middlesex to sell the household fur niture and stock-in-trade, now upon the premises in Great Turnstile, Lincoln's-inn-fields, in pursuance of a writ of execution issued on the 19th of May, 1847. The defendant, who was lately at the head of the firm, and is the father of the plaintiff, about the year 1844, being desirous of retiring from business, agreed with his son Luke James, the present plaintiff, who was also► his - partner, that the stock should be valued, and his (the father's) proportion awarded him. Upon a valuation of the stock being taken, it was ascer tained that the defendant was entitled to a sum of 22,2614 19s. sd. It was then agreed by deed, dated the same year, that this sum should be paid to the defendant in half-yearly instalments of 1,5001., with interest up to the day of payment. There was also a second agreement, by which the plaintiff undertook to pay to the defendant an annuity of 4001. by quarterly payments. The due payment of the whole was secured by a warrant of attorney, with judgment signed, on which the defendant, in case of default being made in payment of one instalment, or of one quarterly payment of the annuity, was empowered to issue execution for the whole sums respectively. In March last the quarterly payment being in arrear, the defendant issued execution immediately, upon which being done the plaintiff paid the 100/. into Messrs. Hoare's bank. Under these cir cumstances, it was contended by the son, Luke James Hansard, that the defendant had no power to issue exe cution, and the present application for an injunction was accordingly made to the Court. It was contended by the defendant that he was entitled at all events to issue execution for the rent due on the premises, which still belonged to him; and also that the defendant's object was to preserve the property. It was stated that the son had been recently neglecting the business, and had incurred considerable expenses in starting and conducting a weekly newspaper, called the Spirit of the Times, of which he was the sole editor. Mr. Bethell and Mr. Busk appeared fur the de fendant. • The counsel for the defendant has not been heard, but it was arranged that the second motion should come on at the same time. MANSARD V. HANSARD. This was a motion to dissolve an injunction granted by his Honour on the 3d of June, restraining the defen dant, Luke James, who was plaintiff in the suit above mentioned, from interfering in the affairs of the part nership, except under the direction of the Court, or ne gotiating bills in the name of the firm. The plaintiff in this suit is Henry Hansard, the cousi❑ of the de fendant, with whom he has been in partnership, as the plaintiff contended, for several years. A deed had been executed by which Henry Hansard con sented to advance a sum of 2,000 L as a contribu tion to the stock in trade, in consideration of which he was to be admitted as a partner, with one-twelfth share in the profits. The defendant, in consequence, as it was stated, of certain eccentricities, was dismissed from his situation as printer of the House of Commons, and his cousin, the plaintiff and partner, was appointed in his stead; shortly after which event the plaintiff caused to be inserted in the daily journals an advertisement an nouncing a dissolution of the partnership. In reply to this statement the defendant immediately caused to be inserted in the Morning Herald, of the 21st of May, an advertisement denying that any dissolution of the partnership had taken place, and threatening to take legal proceedings against the plaintiff for havjng made such a statement. Mr. Stuart and Mr. Green appeared against the motion. Both motions were adjourned at the rising of the Court. SECONDARIES' COURT, June 30. (Before Mr. Secondary JAMES.) JOSEPHS V. ENGLISH. The plaintiff in this action is a marine store-dealer in Aldgate, and a well-known bill didcounter; defendant is a licensed victualler at Hammersmith. The action was brought to recover the sum of 31. for pewter pots delivered. -- The ease lasted a considerable time, but was of very little general importance, the ac ti on ev id ent l y b e i ng for " cos. " It appeared by the evidence that goods were taken to plaintiff, who dis cu-ed the price, and refused to take them in. t?.enitiff then told a man named Bolton to take the money and give a receipt; on a subsequent day, he did so, but the writ bad been issued. Defendant wished the affair to be settled, and paid Bolton and took his receipt. The question was, had Bolton, in taking the money, acted as agent for plaintiff or defendant. He appeared to be now in the position of a stake holder. The Learned SECONDARY said there had been a great deal of legal acuteness in the affair, but the jury had simply to say whether the money had been paid by de fendant to an authorised agent. Verdict for defendant. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Joseph Beak, a warehouseman at Mr. Lloyd's, printer, Salisbury -square, was charged with robbing his em ployer of a quantity of cheap publications, and Thomas Harman, a shopman at Mr. Berger s, a bookseller, in llolywell-street, was charged with receiving them, know ing them to be stolen. _ The prosecution was conducted by counsel. The Learned Gentleman (whose name we did not catch) stated that his client issued a number of cheap pe riodicals, and the prisoner was employed in delivering them to the trade when they came to purchase at the premises, another person taking the cash, to facilitate business and to prevent embezzlement. The evidence would show that, on several occasions, Mr. Berger's man had come with a list of periodicals, and had been served with them, it was supposed, by the prisoner Boak, who then called out to the cashier to take a sum less than the actual value of the books. It was presumed that the two prisoners subsequently shared between them the difference between the real value of the goods and the price actually paid, though this could not be shown. Mr. J. G. Berger, of 19, Holy well-street, Strand, stated that, as clerk to his father, it was his duty to make out the lists of periodicals wanted, and to send for them. On the 9th instant he sent the prisoner to Mr. Lloyd's for publications of various kinds, to the amount of 11. 11s., and he brought them home correctly. On the 16th he sent him for goods to the amount of 11. 4s. Bd. ; on the 23d to the amount of 17s. Bd. ; and on the 24th to the amount of 105. lid. He brought them home correctly. To prove that by the direction of the prisoner Boak, smaller sums had been paid, the cashier, Anthony Ber ridge, an aged deaf man, said on the 16th he received 11. 2s: from-the persottewho paid in , Thename.of-Berget! Mt*. Aldermati Wocin aeked himiiritivitas the prisoner HaFmaiii - Vho - pilid Mat thal money? The - wittess said he could not recollect. He knew the prisoner, as he did a great many more, by sight, but without knowing in whose employ they were. The prisoner was not the only per son who delivered goods. Mr. Alderman WOOD said there would be a legal dif ficulty in prosecuting, in such a state of things. It might not be the prisoner Harman that received the goods, nor Boak that delivered them. It was not shown that Beak received any money. The counsel said he could go farther. Charles Wilson, in the service of Mr. Lloyd, deposed that on the 9th and 16th he watched Harman from Holywell-street to Mr. Lloyd's, and back to Holywell street, and saw that he neither bought nor sold any books on the way. Mr. Lloyd stated that he was watching the prisoners on the 9th. As soon asHarman left the premises with the publications, Boak followed him, and they went together into a public-house round the corner. He did not know what passed between them there, for he re turned to see what sum Harman had paid to Berridge, knowing he could ascertain as precisely the sum he ought to have paid. Mr. Alderman WOOD said the evidence was incon clusive.

This witness prevaricated in his statement on cross examination, and gave such contradictory accounts of the circumstances under which the alleged remittances took place, that Mr. Bingham said h e s h ou ld not place the least dependence on what the witnes s stated. He did not believe a word of the evidence of the witness about his having sent money to the prisoner, and there fore the defence fell to the ground. police.constable, who had been to Derby, where the prisoner's mother lived, said that the prisoner and his father in•law had been at variance for some time. The prisoner's mother had remitted him a pound or two Mr. Robinson, who attended for the prisoner, said he should call witnesses to prove that the prosecutor was never in possession of the sum of money which he stated he had l os t. I n t h at case he presumed the Magistrate would not detain the prisoner. Mr. BiNottam said he should certainly commit the prisoner for trial. If it were shown that the prosecutor could not have lost the money, he should still commit the prisoner for having property supposed to be stolen in hiss possession. Mr. Robinson then proceeded to question Mr. Arundel with respect to tho money ho said he had lost. Mr. Arundel stated that ho had formerly been iu business at Bristol, and had been obliged to compound with his creditors. A young man named Beard, formerly in his service, had been iu the habit of sending him sums of money from time to time, to satisfy the creditors. He had received upwards of 601. recently in this way, and the money lost formed part of the money remitted. Mr. Robinson said he wished for further time to make inquiry into the truth of this statement. 11r. Brzeoixam consented to give the prisoner till Thursday next to make the requisite inquiries. A second charge was then brought forward. Mr. Edward Taylor, su i r sl g ies e e o ein n i C ilno l y i t e ha l e t t e n n the h ew am sepo . am c p o ine m res m nte o he n e. , said g ment t o h f e t p he ri p so r n es e e r nt w y a e s ar in . particulars January i 11. 18s T lasth o i his l h s e chequemissed h ada been apprehension, ehne he qr meout recollected tuetd ob ay a glee tntttehlrea, gentleman ai fornn named Brereton, and witness had subsequently ascer tained that the prisoner had changed the cheque at a tradesman's shop in Clapham. Mr. William Brewington, boot maker, High-street, said the prisoner brought a cheque to his shop, which cheque was cashed by Mrs. Brewington, in his absence. The prisoner called some time afterwards and asked if the cheque was all right. The prisoner was ordered to be brought up again on Thursday on this charge also. Edw.rd Cannan, a potboy, in the employ of Mr. C. Payne, of the Feathers Tavern, Warren-street, Fitzroy square, was brought before Mr. Hardwicke, charged with stealing a silrer watch, gold chain, two coats, one pair of trous..rs, one satin scarf, one silk handkerchief, and three sovereigns, the property of Mr. Thomas Big nell; also a pair of boots, the property of his ma ster. The prosecutor stated that he was lodging in Mr. Payne's house. The prisoner was the potman, and was in the habit of calling witness every morn ing. On Friday morning last witness was aroused from his sleep by hearing a noise at his bed room door. He got out of bed and looked at his watch, which was lying on the dressing table. At that time it was about half-past four o'clock. Witness find ing that the noise was not repeated, retired to bed again, and slept till about six o'clock, when he got up and pro ceeded to dress himself. On looking on the table for his watch he was surprised to find that some person had entered his room and stole it. Witness then looked for his clothes, which he had worn on the previous day, but could not find them; on a further search he missed the articles named in the charge, the whole of which he had seen safe when he awoke at four o'clock. From infor mation he subsequently received from the prisoner's fellow-servant, witness was induced to give him into custody. Lucy Scarlett said she was housemaid in the service of Mr. Payne. On Friday morning last, witness and the prisoner were at breakfast in the kitchen. Witness said to the prisoner that she was sorry for Mr. Bignell's loss. The prisoner replied, " What's the odds, he has plenty more money, and can buy more clothes." Wit Bess fancied by the prisoner's remarks that he knew something about the robbery, but did not tell any one of her suspicions at the time. On Monday, the prisoner told her that he would run away, only he was afraid his master would think he had committed the robbery. He subsequently told her that he could tell his master some thing more, if he would be civil to him. She then in formed Mr. Bignell of her suspicions against the prisoner. Police -constable Read, 108 B, said he received charge of the prisoner. He searched him at the station, but did not find anything upon him that would give a clue to the robbery. Witness had since made inquiries, and found that the prisoner had been seen in conversation with a man who is well known to be a notorious bad cha ratter. This man was heard to say to the prisoner, " that he would make one for the robbery." He had also ascertained that the man was a companion of the prisoner's, and that since the robbery he had purchased a new suit of clothes. Witness added that he traced the man to a coffeehouse, where he had offered to leave a duplicate of a watch in payment for a breakfast. If the prisoner was remanded, he had no doubt but that he should be able to take that man into custody. The prisoner, who denied all knowledge whatever of the robbery, was remanded till Saturday. CLERKENW ELL. Robert Raymaur, a pot-boy in the service of Mr. G. Morgan, of the Plasterers' Arms, Little Clarendln. street, Clarendon-square, was charged with embezzling various sums of money, the property of his master. It appeared that the prisoner had been some time in the prosecutor's employment, and Mr. Morgan having ascertained that the prisoner had embezzled several sums of money, gave him into custody. At the present mo ment he had only one case in readiness; that of Mr. Wood, 84, Seymour street, Euston-square, from whom the prisoner received seven shillings and three•halfpence. If time were afforded, he had no doubt but he should be able to establish several charges of a similar character against him. Mr. CoMaE said he should remand the prisoner till to-morrow (this day), but if the prosecutor could :get any of his witnesses to attend before the closing of that court this evening, their evidence would be taken. SOUTHWARK. Ann Callaghan and Mary Bryant, the former with two young children, and the latter with four, were charged with creating a disturbance at the doors of St. Saviour's Workhouse. The porter stated that at ten on Tuesday night, the prisoners, with their children, applied for admission into the house; the casual ward and every portion of the house being crowded, they were supplied with food, and told to go elsewhere. They commenced abusing him, and created such a disturbance that he was compelled to give them into custody. _ _ In reply to Mi. SECHER, the prisoners said they came from Roscommon, and were compelled to quit their homes owing to the fever which prevailed there. Mr. SECKER-It appears you are married—what has become of your husbands? They replied that their husbands promised to meet them in London, but they had not as yc.t come; and added that if they knew what they would have had to undergo here they would have remained in Ireland, and run the risk of the fever. Mr. SECKER said, the defendants were told the work house was full, and they ought to have gone elsewhere instead of creating a disturbance there. He, however, should not punish them this time, but allow them to make the best of their way to the country, where they might be able to obtain some employment at haymaking. The prisoners were accordingly discharged. WWWORSHIP-STREET. Thomas Smith, a hawker of earthenware, was charged with having attempted to strangle a young woman, named Mary Montgomery, and_ also with feloniously cutting and wounding her mother, whereby her life was seriously endangered. The younger complainant, who exhibited a livid and extensive discolouration of the throat, stated that she had been living with the prisoner as his wife for the last eight month, and had suffered the most brutal ill-treat ment at his hands, during nearly the whole of that period. On the preceding afternoon he came home, and after beating her in an unmerciful manner, and declaring that he would murder her outright, he forced her down upon the bed, and patsinw thick cord round her neck, enutiOressed it till' shet way ou the point of strangulation. On hearing her cries, her mother ran i n to her assist ance, but te moment she entered the prisoner exclaimed with an oath, " that he would do for her also," and snatching a knife from the table, rushed towards her and made a desperate blow at her head. She instantly stag gered back into the yard bleeding profusely from a fright ful gash ab , ,ve the temple, but was saved from fallint , by some of the neighbours, who conveyed her to the house of Mr. Wildbore, a surgeon, in Shoreditch, where the wound was dressed, and she was afterwards removed to the hospitai. HERTFORD MIDSUMMER SES SIONS. (Before the Marquis of SALISBURY and a full Bench of Magistrates.) TUE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY COMPANY, APPEL LANTS; IY. PARKER, ESQ., O. S. TIIORNToN, ESQ., AND OTHER COUNTY MAGISTRATES, RESPONDENTS. This matter, which has been long in dispute, and exciting considerable attention in this part of the county, was again brought before the public in the shape of an appeal against a conviction by the Magistrates at Ware Petty Sessions. It appeared that the commencement of these proceed ings originated in an information laid by the Rev. W. Blakesley against the company, for not stopping a certain train previous to crossing the road at Ana well end, in the Hertford line, as directed by the company's Act, 7th Viet., cap. 35, which sta'es that the " train to and from Hertford and London shall in all cases stop within 150 yards of the said road of Amwell-end," &c. The hearing under this information took place before the bench of Magistrates sitting in petty sessions at Ware, on Tuesday, the 15th instant, when the company was convicted, and a fine of 40s. inflicted. Against this conviction the company appealed to the sessions as above, the chief point in dispute being as to the construction or meaning of the word " stop," which it was contended, on the part of the company, only meant a slackening of speed, and not coming to a complete and perfect standstill. For the respondents it was contended that the mean• ing of the Act was that the stoppage should be actual and entire," and which might be presumed from the 4th and sth Victoria (the company's original Act), when a " maximum speed" was prescribed as contradistinguished from " actual stoppage." The Bench considered that " actual and entire stop page" was meant by the Act, and accordingly confirmed the previous conviction Some time ago, Mr. Lawson, proprietor of' the Hotel Bedford, Rue St. Honors, 323, but who has now a splendid hotel in the Rue de l'Arcade, obtained a verdict, with B,ooof. damages, against M. Bavoux his landlord, for having caused several adver tisements to be inserted in Galignanis Messenger, stating that the Hotel Bedford was to be let, though, in point of fact, Mr. Lawson's lease did not expire until some months afterwards. The damages were awarded because the court held that the Hotel Bedford was the property of Mr. Lawson, though the house in which the business of the establishment was carried on belonged to M. Bavoux. An appeal having been made against the decision by M. Bavoux, the case came on for argument on Saturday before the Cour Royale. M. Bavoux's advocate set forth that Mr. Lawson would not renew his lease of the house No. 323, Rue St. Honore, be cause M. Bavoux demanded 40,000 f. a year, instead of 25,000 f, that had been previously paid; but he denied that in causing the advertisernenb s to be inserted, M. Bavoux had intended to do any injury to that gentleman. The advocate of Mr. Lawson, on the contrary, contended that the advertisement had done him injury by causing people not to go to the hotel, under the belief that he had retired from business, and produced letters in proof of his statement, The court took this view of the matter, and confirmed the judgment in favour of Mr. La wson.-- Gali;gnani.

The arrivals of English Wheat for our market, coast wise and by land•carriage, have been on a very limited scale; hence, the supply on offer to-day was trifling. Owing to the large imports of foreign, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce was again exces sively heavy, and, to have effected sales, a further decline of from is to 2s per quarter must have been submitted to. In foreign Wheat next to nothing was doing, and the currencies were quite is per quarter beneath those obtained on Monday. The imports have amounted to nearly twenty thousand quarters. We had a fair average quantity of foreign Barley on show, but that of English was miserably smlll. Th trade was dull, and prices had a downward tendency. In Malt next to nothing was doing, at barely late rates. Oats, Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour, were to be purchased on easier terms. En;lish ARRIVALS. Wheat.
