LAW INTELLIGENCE. -April 14. LAMBETH COUNTY COURT. (Before Mr. J. Pitt Taylor.) soonv V. WARLTERS. -PUBLICANS' LAMPS. The plaintiff in this case, the landlord of the Joiners' Arms, Denmark-hill, sought to recover the amount of damage done to a lamp through the defendant's improper fixing of the same. From the evidence of the plaintiff it appeared that having some hanging lamps attached to his premises and one of them being out of repair, he em ployed the defendant to do the requisite repairs, agreeing to pay the amount required for the same. The defendant repaired the lamp and fixed it, which was done by a cap and pin, but some time after, there being a rather higher wind than usual, the lamp fell down. He then examined the part by which the lamp was fixed, and found it was totally incapable of holding a lamp of anything likes the weight of the one in question. He had applied to the defendant to put it in repair again, but he had refused. Mr. Collins, of the Giraffe, was called in support of the plaintiff's case. The defendant's case was that the lamp was pre perly repaired, but that on the day in question there was an extraordinary high wind, and through that the lamp was blown down. The lamp had been up three years, and as it swung about the pin must have worn out, which would be the case with a great many now in use. It was no part of his con tract to look to that. His Honour, believing that it was his business to properly repair the lamp, and not to put it up if he thought it would not hold, gave a verdict for the plaintiff, with costs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-April 14. MANSION-HOUSE.—ThomasWolcot, former:y a journeyman in the employ of Mesrs. Moses and Son, shoe manufacturers and merchants, on Tower hill, was brought before Mr. Alderman Hale, charged with having robbed that firm, while in their employment, of six pairs of water-right boots. Mr. Lewis said he appeared on the part of Messrs. Moses and Sou to prosecute the prisoner for a felony committed while in their service, and it would ultimately turn out that the p-isoner had been connected with five men, now under remand upon a charge of having plundered a great number of packages of large quantities of boots and shoes, belonging to Mr. Isenbumr, of Leadenhall street. Mr. E. Moses, one of the prosecutors, said— The prisoner was in our employment as warehouse man for nine years previous tai the 4th of Novem ber last. In May last I received a written com munication, in consequence of which I deemed it my duty to watch what was going forward on my premises. On the 4th of November I dismised the prisoner from my service. During the last 1 or 18 months he was in our employment we missed large quantities of goods, amounting in value to about 1,0001. We bad also in our employment a man of the name of Timothy Desmond, who was dismissed on the same day tlett the pri soner left. On the day in question I found in a cellar adjoining our premises, which was used as a tinman's shop, and in which Desmond used to make packing-cases, six pairs of water-tight boots of the value of 31. From infot mation I received, I caused the prisoner to be ap-! pretended last night. Upon being-brought to our house by the officer, he said that both he and Desmond had been deeply implicated in robbing me, and he,asked me to forgive him for the sake of his wife and family. I told him that the law must take its course. The goods we missed were chiefly boots and shoes, and a large quantity of knives. Timothy Desmond—l live at 85, Chambers street, Goodman's-fields, and am a tin-plate worker. Prior to the 4th of November last, I had been for 13 years in the employment of the prosecutors. During a part of that time the prisoner was in the same service ; and during the last few mouths cf our employment there we were in the habit of stealing property belonging to the prosecutors. We used to steal "water-tights." Oa the 4!li of November, the day we were discharged, the prisoner brought to the cellar in which I was at work six pairs of water-tight boots, but I had no opportunity of removing them before they were discovered by Mr. Moses. The prisoner and I shared money about a dozen times, the produce of goods stolen from Messrs. Moses. A man named George Boyce paid me on several occasions for goods • which had been stolen by the prisoner and myself. We shared upwards of 501. between us. A man of the name of Pickering used also to convey goods away, and he has paid me about 121., of which the prisoner received his proper proportion. The selling price of the stolen boots was 10s. per pair, and we used to get 4s. per pair for them. The goods used to be taken to the house of Boyce, who has paid me money for goods that I had stolen and delivered to Pickering. Prisoner—Have you told the truth ? Witness—l have. Prisoner—What did you give me for the boots ? Witness—They were sold at 4s. a pair, and out of 245. I gave you 10s. Pri , oner—Are you not asharnA to look at me ? You confess yourself to be a thief. Witness—l don't know why I should be ashamed of myself, I'm sere. Prisoner—You are the biggest villain upon earth, and you ought to have a rope round your neck. P. W. Dunnaway, a metropolitan police-con stable, No. 129 H, said he apprehended the pri soner, who confessed to Mr. Moses that ho had been deeply implicated in robbing him, and asked his forgiveness. The prisoner, after the usual caution had been given him, said, in reply to the charge, " Mr. Moses has made the amount to which he has been robbed immensely too large." He was then fully committed for trial. CLERKENWELL.—Yesterday having been ap pointed for the re-examination of Robert Robinson Tripp, who stands charged with the wilful murder of Mr. James Scott, the court was crowded to ex cess low: before the hour fixed. Mr. E. Silence gave evidence that haa already appeared. Police-constable B. Hill, 159 N, said—On the morning of the 7th I went to the house of the pri soner. I saw the prisoner in the front 'room of the second floor. When I knocked at the door the prisoner said; " Who is there ?" I replied " Police;" when he said, " Open the door, it is not locked." When I went in the prisoner was smoking his pipe, and I saw the cutlas and knife produced. I asked what dis:urbanee had taken place between him and Mr. Scott ; when the prisoner said, "He is my landlord. I told him that I owed him some rent,. that it was an unreisonab'e hour, and that if he would come on Saturday I would pay. I per suaded him to go out, but he refus-d, and then I s'a . .bbed him." I asked him what he had stabbed Scott with, and he slid, " The cutlass, and I hope I have given him his death-Wound. If it had not been Mr. Silence I would have cut his head off." The prisoner then asked me what I was going to de with him. I told hint that I wanted him to go with me to see Mr. Scott, awl also told him Scott was not dead but that ho was hurt very much. He then said, " I am sorry for that—l am sorry I did not give him his death-wound." This he repeated several times. Mr. Corrie—Did the prisoner seem 9.3 if he had been drinking ? W it ness--No. Witness colitinued—The prisoner asked me if he was in my custody, and I said no, until I had taken the knife and cutlass, and then I told him he was. On our way to the station the pri=oner said, " I hope I have given him his death-wound." On exa mining the sword I found marks of blood, and also on the stairs. Crosi-examined—l saw Scott and the prisoner in the Caledonian-read. They were then wrangling together, but I did not hear any threats used. At 2 o'clock I met Scott, and he then called the pri soner an old vagabond, said he would wait there all night, and then put the brokers in for the rent lie did not make any compla►nt then that the prisoner at that time had made any threat. Mr. H. Sillifaut, a surgeon, of 1., Thornhill square, proved that clecea9e I died from the effects of the wound. Sergeant Berkly, l2 N—Theprisone r was brouht to the station about 4in tt . e mornin g . The pri soner, upon beiug told the nature of the charge, • said, "I did it." I told him it was my duty to eau tion him, when he again said, "If it had uot been for the lodger interfering., I, would have given him a right one and a left one, which would have saved the trouble of taking him to the hospit I was jus tified in doing it, as Mr. Scott had no right to com e thete at that nos: asonable hour for his rent." At that moment Silence came in, when the prisone r "If it bad not been for your intPrference, I would have soon finished him." (s en sation.) I then asked the nature of the wound, and was to;d that it was an inch and a quarter, when he said, "I wish it had been six inches." To Mr. Robinson —The prisoner, I should say, was not drunk. He might have had something to drink, but not much. He waA a sob er m a n. Pt m. over--We had both ~oraething to drink. This 'is what I expected after I had had the gio and water. Mr. Inspector Judge, of the N division,said that he had taken an inv ntory of the go iris for the poi pose of ha Al , g them to the ptisolier' s fri,. n ri s , found iu a box a s ull and several bones, which the saigiou stated were the bones of a female. I ala) found six bags 01' shot and a powder flask. e e was also some female apparel, consisting of part of an old bonnet, gown, some caps, and an old petticoat. Mr. Robinson said that the clothes belonged to prisoner's mother, and, as for the skull and bones, the prisoner had them for the purposes of study. The prisoner, who reserved his defence, was com mitted for trial and removed to Newgate. The field is the property of a gentleman named Phillips, upon whom a commission of lunacy has been held, and his daughter, Miss Susannah Phillips, was appointed the receiver of the property of her fatber. It appears that the field was always let throughout the entire year, with the exception of Whitsuntide when the term expired, and the field bad to be again taken after the fair was over. It was never held at Easter, and the steps about to be taken by the police are preparatory to the pre vention of its taking place next Whitsuntide, and also hereafter. _ _ MEMBERS RETURNED FOR THE NEW PARLIAMENT. The following is a list of the members re turned by English and Welsh counties and Irish and Scotch constituencies, arranged according to their gene ral political opinions. Radicals are included among the Liberals, and the members of the " Irish Independent party " are ranked as they usually vote—with the Conservatives. The late members who have been de feated, or have not presented tberneelves for re-election, are marked in Italics : William Russell, a respectably dressed young man, about 21 years of age, a barman in the employ of Mr. Sams, the landlord of the Sun public-house, Lamb's Conduit-street, surrendered to his bail be fore Mr. Corrie, charged with having caused the death of Wm. Lockwood, a stonemason and brick layer, by throwing him down and cutting his head. Mr. Child, of the firm of Wire and Child, at tended for the prisoner. From the evidence taken on the first examina tion, it appeared that on Saturday week last, about a quarter past 6 in the morning, the deceased was in the Sun public house, when, making a distur bance, the prisoner took him by the shoulders and threw him out of the house with great force. The deceased was picked up insensible, taken to the hos pital, but he only rallied for a short time, and died on the following Monday morning. At the inquest witnesses were called who stated that the barman had not used any fore() in putting the deceased out; that he did so very quietly, that when he had got him outside he placed him against the door-post, and that it was some time after the barman had returned to his work that the deceased fell down and cut his head. Mr. Corrie inquired of Mr. Inspector Checkley if he had any fresh evidence. Mr. Checkley said that he had only one witness to bear.out the witness Small. Although he bad been warned he had failed to attend. Charles Hastngs was then called, and stated that he was in the public-house at the time in ques tion, when he saw the deceased, who was very abusive, taken by the barman and quietly put out. The barman then returned to his work, and shortly after the deceased, who was very drunk, fell down. Mr. Corrie—Did the barman throw him down ? Witues—No. Mr. Corrie said it was one of those melancholy cases resulting from the evil effects of drunkenness. The jury had come to the same conclusion as he had, and, therefore, the prisoner would be dis charged. Mr. Child complained of the police takin g the barman into custody before inquiries had been made. Mr. Wakley also, at the inquest, bad made some remarks upon the same subject. Mr. Corrie thought the police had behaved very properly in the matter, and had only done their duty. .15 fier some further remarks, Mr. Corrie said the police had only done what they ought to have done in the matter. Perhaps, it his opinion was asked, he should say that the man was thrown down instead of having fallen down, as stated. The parties then left the court. Mr. Fenn said that Miss Phillips had expressed her approval of having the fair abolished. The summons was granted. ENGLISH AND WELSH COUNTIES. Liberal.

In the ten years 1847-50 the average number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,104. But as the deaths of last week occurred in an increased population, the average should be raised for the purpose of comparison in proportion to the increase, in which case it becomes 1,214. Hence it appears that the deaths now returned were less by 155 than the number which the average rate of mortality would have produced. _ _ _ BUCKS. Right Hon. B.

Puller The deaths last week referred to diseases of the zymotic class were 181, whilst the corrected ave rage of corresponding weeks is 246. Typhus and common fever were fatal in 50 cases (20 of which occurred in the north districts) ; the average is 48. Fifty children died of hooping-cough ; the number according to the average rate of mortality would have been 63. Twenty-three children died of scarlatina, the average being 36. Measles was fatal in 17 cases, the average being 25 ; small-pox in 3 cases, the average being 14 ; and diarrhoea in 10 cases, the average being 16. No deaths from small pox occurred in the east, south, or west districts, and none from measles in the west districts, a por tion of the metropolis which was remarkably ex empt from fatal cases of the zymotic diseases. Three children died at 17, New-end, Hampstead, on the 2d, 3d, and 6th inst. respectively, of fever; they appear to have taken fever in Hampstead, to which they had been broughtforchange of air when recovering from hoop - Jig-cough. Bronchitis carried off 113 persons, and pneumonia 81, both numbers being near their respective averages. Four persons died of intemperance, 2 of delirium tremens, 2 of carbuncle. Two women died at the age of 94years, and one in Lewisham workhouse at the age of 96 years. Last week the births of 835 boys and 773 girls, in all 1,608 children, were registered in Loudon. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1847-56 the average number was 1,511. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.519 in. The instrument ranged from 29.27 in. to 29.82 in. The mean temperature of the week was 49.9 deg., which is 4.6 deg. above the average of the same week in 43 years. The mean daily temperature was abLive the average on every day except Saturday ; on Sunday and Monday the excass was 10 deg. and 8 (leg. The highest temperature occurred on Sun day, the sth, and was 65 deg. ; the lowest on I'd day, and was 37.3 deg. The range of temperature in the week was 27.7 deg. The mean dew-point temperature was 45.0 deg., and the difference be tween this and the mean air temperature was 4.9 deg. The wind, which had alternated between south-east and south-west during the week, changed to north-west on Saturday. Rain fell on every day except Wednesday, and the whole amount of the week was 0.53 in. Thunder was heard on Tuesday and Friday. WESTMINSTER.—Ann Robinson, the elder, and Ann Robinson, tin younger, were charged with creating a disturbance and committing two assaults upon the servants of Lady Ponsonby, at her mansion in Chester-square. From some very lengthened testimony it ap peared that for some months past the defendants have been in the hat:it of going to Laly Ponsonby's house, making larg,. claims upon her fur rent. They have been told if they had any claim to pro s,icute it in the ordinary way, and the name of her ladyship's solicitor was given to them. The previ ous evening they went there again, accompanied by two other men and a woman, forced their way into the house, and insisted upon seeing Laity Pun sonby. They were told, she could nut be seen, when they conducted themselves very violently, and on the servants endeavouring to put them out, the younger defendant struck two of them. The police were called, and the defendants given into custody. The answer of the defendants to this statement was that the elder defendant had, by a rec:•nt de cree of the Court of Chancery, been decided the heiress of a great many houses in Chester-square, and had appointed the younger defendant collector for the estate, but, as her mother's claims were d's puted by the tenantry, who alleged they had paid all lawful demands to the lawful owners, her duties as receiver were exceedingly light, but with a view of enforcing her claims she went, accompanied by her mother and friends, to Lady Ponsonby's, where she alleged she was treated with great indignity, and that if she committed an assault it was unin tentional.

Notwithstanding this vast expenditure the supply might be tripled with advantage. Indents for quinine are jealously watched. At civil stations it is almost refused, and during an outbreak of fever it is always the first article to fall short, and the last to be suffi ciently replaced. Of the cost of the remaining drugs we are not informed, but it can scarce l y f a ll short of somethin g lik e 30 lacs of rupees a year. These two figures P.:re sufficient to prove the impor tance in an eco;oomical view of the substitution of native druf.;:s. On the important benefits their introducAron, or rather discovery, would confer upon, the people, it is needless to enlarge. To the mass of the population English medicines are totally inaccessible. Almost alone among imported goods drugs maintain the price they bore in the good old days before the Pagoda tree had been shaken into barrenness. Men in sickness do not ask the price pf medicine. The vendors have every interest in maintaining it. Doctors have little interest in its reduction, and so the good old profitable rates are allowed quietly to endure. The natives do the best they can, sometimes reviving under drugs that would kill any other race of human beings, but I usually dying of attacks which the Englishman regards as'temporary Ills. The evil and its remedy are both understood, and have been pointed out about once a week during the hal of the past cen tury. Yet we have done nothing towards obtaining the remedy we all know to exit. There is pro bably not a medicine imported from Europe, not a costly drug from South America, which has not its counterpart in India. What have we done to dis cover them ? Doctors living alone, without com munication with their brethren occasionally stumble on some valuable pla n t, some febrifuge or substitute for catechu. They cure all round, satisfy them selves of the correctness of their views, and report to the medical board. The white ants eat the report with gusto, the doctor moves on disheartened to his next station, and there the matter ends. It is use less for the advocates of these effete institutions to talk of the valuable investigations they have suggested or proposed. How many English drugs have they displaced within this generation ? in is a result, not a report, that is required, and the only one obtained is an immense expenditure. At the present mo ment there is a committee sitting to ascertain what articles now imported from Europe can be obtained in India. How many drugs will that committee condemn ? We will venture to predict not one, though every member of it has probably some vague idea that all the English medicines can be re placed. We need an officer specially appointed for this duty, with power to make researches throughout India, and to compel the services to aid him. Usually all information obtained will be willingly placed at his disposal. It is hopelessness rather than want of energy which leads so many surgeons to leave their information inaccurate or half-digested. No man with brains to devote him self to study will submit his work to a board selected for its age, and still less to a board which is re , garded as a sep u l c h re og records. It iaindividual persistent energy, solely d evote d to this one sub ject, which can alone accomplish any permanent improvement. A skilled chemist, communicating with all India, testing every drug, and bringing all experience into once focus, would do more in a year to ascei taiu the tune qualities of the native pharma copoeia than the boards will accomplish in a century. Such au officer would be no very expensive addi tion to the staff .of the medical service b qy Telegraph. *up ••• 1 ISO • 0 1 ... 0 •60 S 10 0 1 11411 ••• ••• ... 1 ... 0 1 0 ..• 1 ... 0 ••• ••• 0 • •• 1 •• • 0 1.• 1 ••• C 11. 0 ... 1 ...

Butt The younger defenda.ntwas ordered to find bail SOUTHWARK,—Harriet Clerk, a middle-aged f male, the wife of a tradesman in Bermondsey, was brought before Mr. Combe, charged with steal ing a purse containing half-a-sovereign and two keys, tao property of James Sanders. The prosecutor stated that he was a lighterman, and resided at 3, Gainsford-street, Dockhead. On Saturday night, at ten o'clock, he accompanied his, wife to the shop of Mr. Evans, baker, close by, where she purchased some flour. The prisoner stood near them at the counter, and while his wife was placing the flour in a basket, he saw the pri soner take up a purse off the counter and hastily leave the shop. His wife immediately afterwards turned round to the counter and said, " Good God, some one has taken my purse." The purse the p ironer t a't'up was exactly like his wife's, but not seeing her put it down, he had no idea it was hers, or he should have st )pped the prisoner. After the latt€r had left tho shop a lad came into the shop and said he had keen her pick up the purse, and he knew something abow. her. Ann Sanders, wife of last witness, said that after taking money out of her purse in the baker's shop to pay for some flour, she placed the purse, con taining half-a ; sovereiffn and two keys, on the coun ter, while she deposited the flour in her basket, and when she turned round a minute afterwards she missed it. The purse was a green knitted one, with silk and beads, and she had not seer it since. In cross-examination by Mr. Hughes, witness said she saw the prisoner standing in the shop while she wa 4 paying for the flour, and she inissei her purse almost immediately afterwards. She had no doubt the prisoner stole her purse. John Baker, a lad 13 years of age, said he was standing at the door while Mr. Sanders, his wife, and the prisoner were in the shop. He saw Mrs. Sanders place her purse ou the counter, and the prisoner pick it up, when she suddenly left the shop. He knew her by living opposite her mother's a little while ago, and could swear to her identity. About a quarter of an hour afterwards the pri soner was passing the baker's shop, when she was called in and given into custody. • Mr. Hughes said his client was the wife of a re spec•able tradesman, and could not be guilty of such a paltry theft. Mr. CJinhe thought otherwise, and committed her for trial. THAMES.—A Chinese beggar named Apoo, well known in the streets of the metropolis, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with assault ing and wounding a Frenchman named James Wil liam Hammus. Both parties live in a low lodging house in Lambeth-street, Whitechapel, and while the" Chinaman was just commencing a meal of bread and eggs, the Frenchman entered the room Common to both, and took up one of Apoo's eggs, observing what a nice one it was, and asking him what he gave for it. The Chinam9m, who had just cracked the shell of another egg, became enraged that his fsorl was touched, and threw the egg he held in his hand in the complainant's face, rushed to the fire-place and seized the tongs, with which he sti uck the Frenchman on the shoulder, and then cut him with his knife. Mr. Yardley asked what the defendant was,. and a policeman replied that be got his living by beg ging, singing, and making odd sorts of noises in the street. The Chinaman said that the Frenchman took up his egg and was going to eat it, and provoked him. The Frenchman said he did not intend to eat the egg—he only took it up to look at it. Mr. Yardley—lt is a very great offence to touch the food of some of these people. He says you stabbed him, prisoner, what have you to say to that ? The Chinaman shook his head and muttered some gibberish, deuyiug all that was alleged against him. Two witnesses confirmed the statement of the Frenchman. Mr. Yardley said the complainant bad done wrong in taking up the Chinam nes egg, but that did not ju-tify the prisoner in taking up a pair of tongs and cutting the Frenchman with his knife. He sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of 31., and in default of payment one month's imprisonment. WANDSWORTH.—Mr. S. Fenn, the superin tendent of the V division of police, applied to the magistrate for a summons against the owner of a , field in, Wandswort:), for the purpose of preventing the fair usually held on Whit-Monday and the two following dipi from taking place in future. In consequenve of the late successful attempts to suppress the old Camberwell fair, Greenwich fair, Stepney fair, and other fairs of a similar descrip tion, w.:ich have been held from time immemorial, the police authoritie s have had their attention drawn to the suppression of Wandsworth fair by the COM plainta of some of the inhabitants residing in the immediate locality. This fair, which has been held annually on Whit-Monday for more than a quarter of a century, took place in a field adjoining the W. ndsworth Railway Station, and was generally valy orderly conducted, if the charges that were br. ugnt before the trates can forma criterion. ... 0 •• • 0 ••• 1 ... 0 ••• 0 ... 0 ••• 0 SOO 0 ••• 0 ... 0 0 ••• ...

There was a good attendance this morning of millers and dealers. A better feeling was perceptible towards wheat and Ind;an corn, and a fair business resulted at the full prices of last week. Flour did not move so freely, and was wi' hout change. Oats and oatmeal were moderately dealt in, and were quite as high as on Tuesday. Barley neglected, And Id to 2d per bushel cheaper. Beans, from their high relative value as compared with Indian corn. were scarcely noticed. LEEDS, APRIL 14. The supplies of grain do not increase, and good fresh wheats are now wanted ; what is on offer finds ready sale at an advance, of 1s per qr. from Friday, and other descrip tions meet with rather more inquiry at a slight improve ment in value. Barley does not ♦ary., from last week. Beans and other articles unaltered. Average prices of grain—Wheat, 7d; bailey, 47s lld ; oats, 36s lld ; beaus, 41s 2d ; peas, 42* Od ; rye, —s. —d. HULL- APRIL 11. To-day we had a small supply of wheat from the farmers in moderate condition. Fine dry parcels met a free sale st fully last day's r rtes. Foreign barley a liberal oupply, and fine samples a free sale at last week's prices. Beans and o4i unaltered. Linseed and its products excessively dull. In other articles no alteration.
