General Walker had capitulated, and Rivas w‘.s iu the hands of the allies. Despairing of success, Walker surrendered on the Ist of May to Captain Davis, of the sloop of war St. Mary's, having then less than 300 men and but two days' provisions. A salute of 100 guns announced to the people of San Jose, at 1 o'clock on the 7th of May, the surrender of the Filibusters. The ringing of the bells, music, and cries of rejoicing manifested the enthusiasm of the people for the vict, - ,ri, and for the re-establish ment of peace. The towns and villages were illu minated during the night ; everywhere there were mwdc, fireworks, promenales, balls, and merry reunions, the national flag waving over all the houses. General Mora, with his division of the army, was expected at San Jose on the 13th of May. Great preparations were being made to give him an enthusiastic reception. The following are the terms of General Walker's capitulation, as issued in a general order by him sslf Head-quarters of the Army, Adjutant-General's office, Rivas, May 1, 1857. General Order—No. 50. The Commander-in Cnief, in communicating to the army the following agreement, thinks proper to state be entered into it on the solemn assurances from Captain Davis, that Colonel Lockridge, with his whole comman d, bad left the San Juan River for the United States. In parting for the present with the brave comrades who have adhered to our cause, through evil as well as good report, the Commander-in• Chief desires to return bis deep and heartfelt thanks to the officers and soldiers under his command. ReduCed to our present position by the cowardice of some, the incapacity of others, and the treachery of many, the army has yet written a page of American history which it is impossible to forget or erase From the future, if not from the present, we may expect just judgment. Rivas, May 1, 1857. An agreement is hereby entered into between General William Walker, on the one part, and Commander Cbas. H. Davis, of the United States navy, on the other part, and of which the stipulations are as follows:- 1. General Walker, with six - een officers of his staff, shall march out of Rivas with his side arms, pistols, horses, and personal baggage, under the guarantee of said Captain Davis, of the United States navy, that they shall not be molested by the enemy, and shall be allowed to embark on board the United States vessel of war St. Mary's, in the harbour of San Jun del Sur, the said Captain Davis undertaking to transport them safely on the St. Mary's to Panama. 2. The officers of General Walker shall march ont of Rivas with tbeir side arms, under the guarantee and protection of Captain Davis, who undertakes to see them safely transported to Panama, in charge of a United States officer. 3. The privates and non-commissioned officers, citizens and employes of the departments, wounded or un wounded, shall be surrendered with their arms to Captain Davis or one of his officers, and placed under his protec tion and control, and pledging himself to have them safely transported to Panama in charge of a United States c fficer, in separate vessels from the deserters from the ranks, and without being brought into contact with them. 4. Captain Davis undertakes to obtain guarantees, and hereby does guarantee, that all natives of Nicaragua or of Central America, now in Rivas, and surrendered to the protection of Captain Davis, shall be allowed to re side in Nicaragua, and be protected in life and property. 5. It is agreed that such officers as have wives aid families in San Juan del Sur, bball be allowed to remain there under protection of the United Strtes consul 011 an opportunity offer of embarking for Panama or San Francisco. General Walker and Captain Davis mutually pledge themselves to each other that this agreement shall be executed in good faith. WILLIAM WALKER, - CHARLES HENRY DAVIS, Commanding United States Navy. Present and acting, C. F. HENNI:vosEN, JOHN P. WATERS, J. WINTHROP TAYLOR. By command of Wtn. Walker, General-Commanding. Chief, Pn, R. THOMPSON, Adjutant General, N.A. The Cronica gives all due credit to Captain Davis for his humane interference to save the lives of Walker and his followers. The Boletin Oficial of Leon, of April the 15th, states that when the Fili buster party left Castillo Fort on the sth, without attacking it, they left a paper fastened to a tree with a bayonet containing the following words : "James Bowie amd E. J. Calhoun present their com pliments to the Commander of Fort Castillo. Good bye, friends. Warriors, remain in peace—the war is over." Walker and a portion of his officers were taken to Panama by the United States' s.o ,p of war St. Mary's, and others obtained passage by the steamer Panama. They were, it was said, allowed, by the terms of capitulation, to leave Rivas wi:h their side arms, and the men were to ha scut home at the expense of the Costa Ricans. General Henningien, Colonel Titus, and some others of Walker's men, were passengers to New York by tha Illinois, and the papers of that ci'y are filled with the accounts of the capitulation. General Ilenningsert had prepared a statement of the forces engved in the Nicaraguan war, in which be th us s t a t es the relative strength' of Walker's army and that of the enemy, and the relative loss in killed and wounded : " Force of Walker from the time of his landing in Nicaragur. to the Ist of May, 1857, a space of nearly two years (ex.ousive of Lockridge's force) Total force of the allies, exclusive of 1,200 Costa Ricans said to have been on the river " (Of this number 11,500 men were from Guatemala, Costa Rica, Honduras, and San Salvador.) Total killed and wounded of Walker's force B5O Total allies, killed and wounded 5,860 " This is without counting on eitber aide those who died of disease. The mortality in the enemy's camp was very great. Two generals died at the siege of Gra nada ' • and in April, 1856, o f 2 ,400 men who retreated from Rivas with Mora, at least 1,000 died of cholera, only 500 entering San Jose with him. To this force of 2,513, the total force,Walker had under arms during two years since his landing in the country, it is hardly ne cessary to add the armed citlzans who fought at Granada and Rivas, because they were, with a score of exceptions, disbanded soldiers ; and it must be borne in mind that, it many unwounded died, a large proportion of the wounded recovered. It is estimated that during two years, of 2,500 enlisted or holding commissions, about 1,000 were kiled or died of wounds or sickness, 700 de• served, 250 were discharged, 430 were at R.vas on the let of May, and 80 in garrison or in steamers on the river. Total, 2,46 s—leaving 53 unaccounted for." The New York Sun, iu reference to the above details, remarks 2,518 " We think that the General, perhaps from imperfect data, underrates the number of men who joined Walker during the Nicaraguan struggle, and is led by Exagge rated statements of the enemy's forces in the different engagements to overstate their numbers, and the number of their killed and wounded. Porbably in this Walker- Nicaraguan war more than 2,000 Americans and 6,000 or 7,000 Central Americans have perished." General Walker and staff arrived at New Orleans on the evening of the 27th, in the steamer Empire City. The telegraphic announcement of the tact says : " Ten thousand reople were present to receive General Walker, who was accompanied by Colonel Jacques, Mr. Plcht,r, and Mr. Turner, agent of the associated press, in a carriage, to the St. Charles H o t e l, w h ere G eneral Walker made a speech, expressing his thanks for the splendid reception given him, that in the mass before him he recognised the American love of liberty, and as sured them that victory was still sure. The greatest ex citement prevails in the city, and the St. Charles Hotel is besieged by thou.ands, anxious and eager to hear the General. He was obliged to speak twice before the crowd was satisfied. General Walker surrendered be o use Captain Davis signified his intention of seizing the schooner Granada, which held his (Walker's) reserve. General Walker was kept a close prisoner by the United States' commodore at Panama, notwithstanding tbts terms of capitulation, which allowed him and his officers their liberty, and gave them the privilege of retaining tbeir side arms." Another despatch front New Orleans, of the 28th, says : "General Walker's friends confidently assert that he will go back to Nicaragua in 30 to 60 days, with plenty of men and means. He and his staff attended by invit a • tion this eveni , :g Splalding's Amphitheatre. The house was densely crowded, and when General Walker ap peared the house rose and cheered him most enthusias tically, the bands playing the national airs. General Walker Walker will address a public meeting here tomorrow night, on Neutral Ground.' Additional news from Central America had been received at New York. The Costa Rican autho rities, it was understood, had authorised arrange ments to be made for transporting all the Filibus ters that remained in the country to the United States. It was also understood that a treaty had been concluded between Costa Rica and Nicaragua, providing for the speedy resumption of traffic over the transit route. The reported division of Nica ragua was contradicted, and a plan was on foot for re-establishing the old Central American Confede ration. A. despatch from Washington, of the 28th, "The excitement about Walker's return is intense, though not a word has been received from him by his friends here, nor has th e S ecre t ary o f t h e N avy received any despatch on the subject. The Navy Department do not credit the report of the capitulation with Captain Davis, of the St. laary's, b e having, it is said, no autho rity to entertain any such proposition. It is understood, h owever , that Captain Davis was instructed to render Walker such assistance as be might need ; acd the threat to take the schooner Granada was only a blind to ter a pretext for surrendering. It is con icted that Walker will ret urn i n 90 days at head 1 5,000 men," tfiahffdeeo n r d ti y t li p e tz; e l adt LOCAL SHARI? MARKETS. LIVERPOOL.

People who were determined to visit Ascot on the " Cup Day" felt no uneasiness when they heard that Wednesday had been wet and stormy, for they knew the Queen would be present, and experience taught them that by some fortunate chance fair weather always attends her Majesty's excursions abroad. No wonder was therefore excites by the propitious change in the skiey influences. Although the morning wes an alternation of clouds and sun shine, yet the female faith was large, and a "st - ire of ladies" in all their gay and variegated summer attire thronged the Waterloo station, and were con veyed in rapid succession to the Heath. The platform in London was made quite pic turesque by the many-coloured dresses of the ladies who promenaded it, and who, as they were not attending a "Drawing-room," bat only required seats in a railway carnage, ran no risk of having their dresses torn and toilettes disarranged owing to a crushing crowd for wh ose accommo d at i on no provision had' been made. Trains were despatched at frequent intervals, and from the excellent ar rangements confusion was avoided, and the excur sienists experienced little inconvenience or annoy ance. Still it must net be surmised that the rea ly facilities for reaching the Heath furnished by the railway diminished the glories of the road. Larete numbers of people were conveyed by the Great Western route to Windsor, whence they posted through the park to Ascot ; while the relays of horses along the road from London, and the resus citated post-boys who were in attendance, reminded people of " the good old times." The Cup Day was, in fact, surpassingly success ful. The supply of sport was ample, the weather fine, and the attendance of company equalled that on the occasion of the visit of the late Emperor Nicholas of Russia. The space opposite the Grand Stand was thickly clustered over with carriages filled with ladies, while the lawn and balcony of the Grand Stand and the private stand=, from the varied hues of ladies' dresses, glistened and flashed in the sunlight. By 1 o'clock the bell rung out for clearin g the course, and about half an hour aft erwar d s the Royal Standard was hoisted, and the stir and ex citement among the spectators showed that the Queen was approaching. Soon the Royal cortege was seen slowly descending the hill and coming along the New Mile. It was preceded by the Earl of Bessborough aid the Royal Huntsman, and, in fact, the procession was formed in the same order that we have so frequently described. Lord Pal mereton, however, accompanied it on horeenack, and wherever lie was recognised the most lively in terest and curiosity were excited. Blink Bonny, the Derby and Oaks victress, opened the proceedings by cantering over for the 50 sovs Sweepstakes, and at the request of her Ma jesty the mare was afterwards walked round the enclosure in front of the Queen's Stand, and was evidently regarded with much curiosity by the Royal visitors. The Gold Cup was run for at 3 o'clock. The inci dents which marked the race are fully described. below. It was in favonr of Lord Zealand's Skir misher, who was ridden by Charlt , n ' the rider of Blink Bonny forboth Derby and Oaks. Although the prize is designated the "Gold Cup," yet it is in reality silver, and we are fain to confess that it is somewhat inferior to the race cups which have been contested for at Ascot in previous years. Just after the decision of the Visitors' Plate her Majesty and suite took their departure, and loud cheers attended th e i r prog re s s d own the Course. The spectators also now began to move off, and within an hour after the last race only a few strag glers and belated visitors were left with the police and the gipsies to enjoy the pleasant evening on the Heath. Among many other fashionable visitors were Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, the Duke of Cam bridge, the Duke of Beaufort, the Duke of Mon trose, his Excellency the Russian Ambassador, Lord Wilton, Lord Londesborough, Lord Ailes bury, Lord Enfield, Lord Drogheda, Lord Suffield, Lord S. Osborne, Lord Annesley, Lord Clifden, Lord Bath, Lord Anglesey, Lord Derby, Lord Zetland, Lord W. Powlett, Lord Cork, Lord G.

The horses were tw'ce paraded round the enclo sure in fr out of the Royal stand before taking their preliminary canter ; and afterwards as they were proceeding to the eterting-post, Winkfield bolted for the gateway through which he is accustomed to enter the course daily. Bartholomew in stantly pulled him up, but in doing so his stirrup leatle-r broke, and be fell heavily to the ground. His hone was instantly stopped, and Bartholomew was only for the moment stunned. After a little delay he remounted and joined the horses at the starting post. Much anxiety and compassion were evinced for Bartholomew by the spectators, for it will be remembered that lie was one of the most severely injured jockeys in the fear ful accident at Goodwood last year. His secoad mount since that occurrence was to-day. Mr. Hibburd lost no time in forming the horses in a line, and soon despatched them from the post. Chevalier d'lndustrie, who was started to "serve" Rogerthorpe, immediately rushed to the front,with Saunterer " pulling double" second, and these two showed the way past the stand, Pretty Boy going on third, Skirmisher fourth, Tasmania fifth, War dermarske and Leamington next, Rogerthorpe bringing up the rear. After rounding the top turn Chevalier d'lndustrie increased his lead upwards of 20 lengths, Saunterer being second, with Skir misher about a couple of lengths behind him, Pretty Boy and T asman i a running abreast next, Warlock being list but one, and Gemma di Vergy last. In this order they disappeared behind the hill, and on coming into eight Chevalier d'lndustrie was still seen with the lead and Saunterer second, Pole Star having drawn into the third place, with Skirmisher fourth, clear of his horse', Gemma di Vergy head ing the ruck, Warlock being " whipper in. As they rounded the turn by the brick-kilus Skir misher began to creep forward, and soon joined. Saunterer, and these two were now in close com pany with Chevalier d'lndustrie. On entering the straight the Chevalier had completed his work and dropped back, leaving Saunterer with a slight lead, Skirmisher taking second place, with Pole Star and Gemma di Vergy close attendance. They ran thus to the half dis'ance, where Skirmisher headed Saunterer. Opposite the Grand Stand. Gemma di Vergy passed Pole Star, caught Saun terer within a few strides of the chair, but failed to reach Skirmisher, who won easily by a length and a half ; a head only separated the second from the third, two lengths dividing the third from 'The prompt and energetic steps taken by Messrs. Linklater and Hackwood, to whom the Attorney- General has intrti,ted the conduct of the prosecu tion of the directors and general manager of this bank, have led to the capture of Mr. Humphrey Brown. We learn that he is now in custody upon two warrants, by each of which he is required to put in bail for 4,0001., with t NO sureties for 2,0001. each. Sureties for 8,0001., beside 3 his own recog nizances for EMU , will therefore be required be fore he is released. The Hon. John St ipleton, M. P. for Berwick, and the others who have been arrested have already given bail to a similar amount. Within a short time it is believed that all the parties implicated will be secured. Those who have not yet been apprehended are under strict surveillance abroad, and will be brought to this country as soon as the necessary arrAng , laents can be made. Three- ex-officio informations have boon filed at the Crown-office by the Attorney- General, but it is not expected that the trials will take place until next November, as the present term ends to-day. Sir Frederic Thesiger, assisted by Mr. Welsby and Mr: Joseph Brown, will lead for the Crown, unless the recent appointment of the Solicitor-General should interfere with that er rangement. If so, it is supposed that the Attor ney-General would himself lead. Several of the leading counsel have been retained for the di rectors, and among them Sir Fitzroy Kelly, Mr. Bovill, Q.C., Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., and Mr. Huddleston. It is not known who will have the honour of conducting the defence of Mr. Humphrey Brown. The New Stakes of 10 sovs each, with 100 aided, for 2- yr-olds; cAts, 71'1 flies, Bst 31b.

Those of our readers who have lingered beyond the bathing season in those districts, may remember observing the peculiar sensation which affects the residents when the year begins to break. As the autumn passes into winter, the dirges begin under which the popular heart quails. The rolling swell rouses the gloomy echoes of the caverns, and gives a tremulous feel to the everlasting rocks above, when they are trodden by the coast-guard or the daring fowler. The spray dashed up frona.the rocky arches which succeed one ansither, from headland to headland, may be seen with a glass from Yorkshire to Northumberland, when a gale is departing. At the first sound of the true wintry whistle of the wind and swirl of the sea, a sort of shiver passes through human frames, and the blood runs cold under the conception of the sights to bo looked for. As the weather fouls, and the spray falls in flakes over gar dens a long way inland, and penetrates the best made windows which look seawards, scouts are out along the rocks and up on the galleries of the light houses, looking out for doomed vessels, or forming an opinion on the probable fate of colliers or other coasters which have recently sailed. The women and children who are awaiting that opinion can settle to no business. The children may go to the shore, but the wives of the absent cannot bear it. They could not look on whiffs a vessel was driving in. It may be too like what their husbands, brothers, or fathers are undergoing under the same gale ; for there is no harbour of refuge between the Humber and the Forth. This is the miserable, the shameful, the almost incredible fact, as stated in the petition which the seamen of that coast are even now presenting to Parliament. Through the driving gloom—amidst the glimpses opened by the gale—one and another and another vessel is now seen, now lost, and then seen again, a tossed speck in the myrtle-green waters and spreading foam,—too often making for the port where multitudes are gathering in dread of seeing them come in. Frantic signals are made from the shore, and frantic efforts are seen to be made on board, to avoid the perils of either hand, and hit the channel, disguised by the weather. Some get into harbour ; but it always happens that some do not. The most dreary spectacle of all is that of a success:on of them following precisely the same road to destruction ; and it is a spec tacle fAmiliar to all residents in the ports whence this petition comes. Three or four ships fail to tet round a point, or to escape a curl eat ; end while all yet looks much as it did five minutes before, a cry of anguish breaks out along the whole range of rock, and women wring their hands on the shore, aed turn away homewards.' The vessels are edging towards the fatal precipice on the one hand, or the ruinous sands on the other, and the men are seen to take to the rigging. Then the life boats go out amidst cheers, and make for the vessels nearing the sands. One brig falls to pieces before the boat c m reach her. A collier goes right over, with all her. sails stt, and is washed up so that her topsail first t.)uches the shore. In such a case no men are found on board, unless some may still be c'inging to the bulwarks, under incessant ducking. A ship jamas: d under the precipice allows no chance of life but by the cradle ovethead, and fetrful is the transit in mid air, amidst the tumult of the storm, the blind ing spray, the deafening roar, and the bitter cold. Rumour soon passes the numbers of she lost far in land ; whole crews—four, six, or e•glit men ; parts of crews—five out of seven, and so on ; scores of lives lost within view, and Heaven only knows how many more between th;s spot and the Hum t.er on the one hand, and the Fort on the other. There is no refuge between, nor any harbour which will serve distressed vessels at low water. When all is over the detestable last scene exasperates the sorrow and shame of the whole. Men, women, and boys are seen ascending the roas ' crossing the fields, troop ing along the sands laden with booty from the wrecks—sail-cloth, timber and spars, ropes, and whatever even children can carry. Looking to the statement of the case in figures, as given by the authorities on the spot, it appears that sometimes one-fourth, and frequently of late half the entire number of wreaks and lives lost on Bettinri.-5 to 2 aost EArdrop, 5 to 1 each ag?t Kes trel and Peter Fiat, 7 to 1 aget Admiral Lyons, 10 to 1 agst any other.

How is it pos sible that, on such a coast, supplying such a traffic from the great coal field and its commercial opera tions, there should net be a single harbour of refuge between the Forth and the Humber ? The petitioners exhibit the amounts voted for the sup port of such harbours all round our islands, some of them in districts where the danger and the traffic are nothing in comparison with those of the coal region. It appears that the casualties and loss of lite are on the increase, out of all proportion to the simple expansion of commerce. There are more collisions, from the multiplication of vessels, and especially of steam-boats, and from the consequent greater thronging of the ocean paths. The insuffici ' out supply of good native seamen causes an extensive employment of foreigners, and introduces a new element of danger in unintelligible language, and new and strange methods and manners. Worst of all, perhaps, is the temptation to send out unseawor thy ships. This is the matter most vehemently com plained of by the petitioners ; and it is no doubt a grievous hardship that they must go to sea, on oc casion, in a leaky ship, or go to prison for refusing. On the other band, the owners complain that the seamen are apt to be capricious, and take away the character of a vessel to excuse their being off their bargain. Both parties being thus dissatisfied, it seems tolerably clear that some method of super vision of vessels is the thing wanted—some authority which shall decide when appealed to, when vessels cease to be seaworthy. This is what the petitioners desire • and if their employers are sincere, they will probably support the demand. The operation of the recent Merchant Shipping Act will reduce in time, we may hope, the perils from ignorance in commanders and incompetence in men, if only a suf ficieut supply of seamen can be kept up. While the number is so inadequate that foreigners are picked up, and bad natives borne with, as the only way of getting vessels manned for sea, it is a fearful and humbling consideration that hundreds of seamen are needlessly lost every winter. For the deaths from preventible causes in that profession (hazard ous, at all events) there is no excuse whatever, in this age of science, skill, wealth, and professed humanity. In old times when we did not know all about bilge-water, salt-meat, and the mis chiefs of damp, dirt, and confined space, maritime diseases were regarded as dispensations of Provi dence, and put up with accordingly; whereas now, deaths from scurvy and ship fever produced in such ways would justly be regarded as manslaughter. In the same way it is too late now to charge Provi dence with the thousand deaths a year of seamen which take place on our coasts from preventible causes. Of old, the gale and the foundering at sea were prayed against as modes of death appointed to be submitted to. Now, when we are actually making harbours of refuge elsewhere, and when orews demand that vessels shall be examined an d leaky ones condemned, men are as responsible for the larger proportion of deaths on our north eastern coast as they would be for murder by ship fever and scurvy from the old causes. Parliament must attend to this petition, and it would be well that a larger public than the mari time one should support it, ...Doily News. Mr. Dodsworth's Courtier, 4 yrs (Challoner) 1 Mr. H.

BOW-STREET.—John • Bryan, an ill-Poking fellow, but much better dressed than is usual for men of his class, was charged with defrauding Capt. Valentine Baker, of the 10th Huss,rs, by selling him a false card of the Ascot races Captain Baker stated that a little before twelve o'clock that morning he was driving in his carriage to the Waterloo Station, on his way to Ascot, t't attend the races, when the prisoner accosted him, asking him to buy a card of the races. He bought one, and paid the prisoner is. for it. He went on a little way, and then, looking at the card, disco vered that it was one of last year's, the date having been altered. Upon this he went back, and as soon as the prisoner caught sight of him' he ran away. He follovied and caught him, and gave him in charge. A number orsimil4r Cards, altered in the .ame way, were found upon him. Another gentle man came up, and stated that he had been defrauded in the same way, but he did not give his name. The prisoner said he was not aware that the cards bad been altered. Mr. Jardine observed, that this was a scandalous fraud, and one which the prisoner probably expected to commit with impunity, as it might be supposed that persons in a hurry to the statinn to go to the races would not come back to complain of it, even if they discovered it, before entering the train.. The prisoner was remanded for further examina tion. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—William Pullen was charged with throwing a quantity of vitriol over the dresses of two young women. Sarah Tucker, waitress at 52, Howland-street, a coffee-house, kept by Mr. Jones, stated that on. Tuesday afternoon the prisoner came into the kit chen, and after making a surly remark went behind her and threw something on her gown. The next morning she found that her dress was burnt into holes. Margaret Bailey, a servant in the same house, on Tuesday night found a gown which was hang ing up in her bed-room smeared with vitriol. When she got up the next morning she found a frock and another gown burnt with vitriol. The damage dope amounted to between 4/. and 5/. Heard MI Jones ask the prisoner wby he threw the vitriol over the girls' dresses, to which the prisoner an swered that he wanted to do them some mischief. Henry Fatt, servant to Mr. Gilbert, oilman, Tottenham-court-road, proved that on Tuesday the prisoner bought a pennyworth of vitriol, and on being told there was water in it had it changed for the strongest sort. The prisoner denied the charge, and was fully committed for trial. SOUTHWARK.—Mary Ann Badgerry, a mar ried woman, was brought up in eu , to ly of George Bonsor, police cons• able 121 M, from St. Thomas's Hospital, and placed in the dock, charged with at tempting to commit suicide by taking a quantity of poison. _ _ _ The constable stated that on the night of the Bth instant, he was on duty in Little Suffolk-street, Southwark, when he saw a mob of people collected at the corner of a court. He immediately proceeded there, and found the prisoner leaning against the wall, apparently suffering great pain. He asked her what was the matter with her, when she handed him a paper marked outside, " Poison." He then shook her and inquired what she meant by that, when she, with some difficulty, told him she had taken poison, and that she was dying. W,tness immediately procured a'sistancc and conveyed her to the hospital, where he usual remedies were used with success, and she remained there until Wedut s day, when she was sufficieutly rtoiverell to be re moved. The magistrate asked what was the description of poison she took ? The constable replied that the prisoner told the doctor at the hospital that it was precipitate powder, and that was ascertained to be a fact. The prisoner, who sa-qued to have suffered con siderably from her folly, said she was extremely so•ry, and she should not have taken the powder only she was drunk, and had quarrelled with her hus band. She had three children, and she purchased the poison to rub th , .ir hair. The magi-ti ate aske I what her husband was ? She answered that he worked at Hibernia,-wharf. The constable informed his orsb i p that he was a steady, hard-working man, and the prisoner's conduct was generally good. The prisoner declared that she would never attempt it again, and she would refrain from taking intoxicating liquor for the future. The prisoner's husband was sent for, and on his attending before the ma g istrate he promised to tike care of her, and he had no doubt she would never attempt such a rash act again. His worship severely censured her, and gave her up to her husband. 'John Donovan, a tall, powerful young fellow, 22 years of age, was charged with committing a vio lent assault on Catherine Donovan, his mother. He was also charged with assaulting his father. The latter, a hard- - working old man, said that he obt-iined his livelihood by working at the wharves, and brought up a large family, who chiefly sup ported themselves, except the prisoner, who lived at home. On the previous afternoon his wife was confined. About 2 o'clock that m. , rning the pri soner came home intoxicated, and roused them all up. He then entered the room in which his mother and the baby were lying, and, making use of an oafh, struck her several times and told her to get up. She called out for assistance, and when witness went up his son had pulled her out of bed, and was threatening to throw her out of window. He immediately seized hold of him to prevent him, and had not a constable come in at the time he be lieved murder would have been committed. Sentenced to six months, with hard labour. THAMES.—Bartholomew Norton, a tall man, about 30 years of age, was brought before Mr. S , lfe, charged with violently as,.aulting his wife Eliza Norton, an attenua' ed, careworn looking woman, who presented herself in court with marks of brutal violence on her face, and with one of her eyes clo , e d. The complainant said her husband sometimes played upon the violin and sometimes went to sea, and *hat when lie was on shore he was continually beating her. About six weeks ago her husband s'ruuk her on the head with a chair, and knocked her about. He had beaten and kicked her r-peat edly. On Wednesday night she was seated outside her door in Russell-court, Sr. George's-in-the-East, when her husband came home and kicked her about the face and I:ody. She was anxious her husband should not he punished, but only that he should be bound over ti keep the peace towards her, and not ill-use I er. A policeman confirmed the wife's statement, and gave the prisoner a bad eharact-r. The prisoner, iu defence, said that he was inno cent of the charge, and that his wite was an habi tual drunkard, in the practice of pawning and sell ing his furniture, linen, and wearing apparel, and also his children's clotbe3. He called a man named Denis Murphy, who said that he had lived in - the same house as the prisoner. for three weeks, and always found him to be a very quiet mofien , ive man.
