The harbour of liarwich is safe, commodious, and easy of access in all weathers and states of the tide- advantages which no other port possesses on the eastern coast south of the Humber. By the opening of this route via Harwich the dangers and delays of the intricate.navigation of the Swin and the month • of the River Thames are avoided, whereby a saving of time is effected to Harifburgh, Rotterdam, and Antwerp of from 10 toil henrs; whilst 'the route to Oberhausen and thence to the nOrthern parts of Europe is four hours and a quarter less by -' Hitraieli rind Rotterdam than that by Dover and Ostend, as per tabular statelherit; and thus the former must become the direct route of postal communication.

The annual meeting of the- governors and friends of this splendid charity was held yesterday at the Londca Tavern ; the Right Hon: the Lord Mayor in the chair. The CuiisstAN stated that out of a list of candidates numbering - 114, the committee were enabled to admit only 15. He deeply regretted that noble institutions such as this were not better supported, and warmly ap pealed to those who were present . to e x ert themselves, individually ar.d collectively, in promoting an institution 1.• which had such strong claims upon public sympathy. The report, which was read, alluded to the continued 'success of the society, though that position had only been maintained by the most unusual and arduous exertions Theresult .1 commercial failures, and other circumstances, had Obliged many of their subscribers to withdraw their support. The committee urged the necessity of co-opera tion on the part of the friends, and appealed specially to the clergy to aid the charity by their valuable ser vices in! their pulpits, and among their congregations. Though death had deprived them of some of their supporters, the number , of legacies during the year tied been unusually small. The health of the children was! reported to be good, and every means had been adopted to,irnprove their intellectual culture—a reading room, library; and museum having been established. The bazaar . which was held last . summer at Streatham had produced 309/. ; but the fund was still deficient 3,000/., ond the reduction of this debt was a matter of great moment. The officers were all reelected with acclamation, special allusion being made to the eminent services Some of Mr. Leeks, the secretary, by several speakers. interesting.di,cussion took place on the subject of paid agents, who.Tade a living by dea l ing in proxies, &c.

The case of a child named Barrett was stated in ac cordance with a notice which had been given. She was an unsucJessful candidate at the last election but one, and it appeared that her friends had exposed some ne farious practice in reference to the sale of votes, &c., by which the candidate had lost her election. The case was referred to the 'committee to determine whether, on hearing evidence, they would admit the ~child without an election. Thanks were voted to the chiarman, who retired, aid Sir Fe:ix Agar presided , over the election. FR EN oil FAIGATES IN .BRITISH POETS.

This day was appointed by the Sheriff of the county of Bute for the return of a member to fill the seat vacant by the resignation of the Hon. Stuart Wortley, consequent upon his acceptance of the office of Solicitor -general. Mr. Wortley was again a candidate; and, as there was no opposition, the proceedings excited very little interest. Very few electors were present belonging to Bute. Sheriff Hunter having read the writ, &c., Dr. Gibson, the late Provost of Rothesay, moved that Mr. Wortley be again returned to Parliament as the representative of the joint counties of Bute and Arran. Tke nomination was seconded by Mr. J. M'Don gall, Kerrytorlie, and, there being no other candi date, the Sheriff sleclared Mr. Wortley duly elected. The Hon. S. Wortley then addressed the elec tors. He thanked them for again placing him in the proud position of their representative, and, while ho expressed himself deeply grateful to the friends who had supported him, he thanked those who might not agree with him for their forbearance. When he lait appeared before them he stood in an indepen dent position, but, her Majesty having been pleased to offer him a distinguished place under the Crown, he had accepted the post. The question arose—whether or not his constituents would ap prove the stop ? They bad done so. The hon. gentleman then referred to the late war.' He bad supported that war, and be believed it was the universal opinion of the people of Great Britain that the war was of such a just and necessary char acter that Britain could not stand by without tak ing part in it. He referred to the disadvantageous position of the army after a forty years' peace, and said that, notwithstanding, British soldiers had suc cessfully encountered the most powerful military nation in Europe. He had given the war his best support, and when in 1855 all eyes were turned to Lord Palmerston he (Mr. Wortley) was one of those who considered tha t his Lordship was the man for the crisis. When some of his political friends endeavoured to obtain a premature and un he (Mr. Wortley) had separated f s r a o t m isfa t c h t e o m ry . sup port throughout the w ar. Referring to taxation, peace,He had given Lord Palmerston his he said he looked forward to relief from the present excessive burden.

Dodson.) ' I . EVANS V. EVANS—DIVORCE. This was a suit of divorce by reason of adultery, in against wife.Ev Evans, T h o e f c C as h e el w t e a n s h broughtim vi ed bsy. Evans, his . be 'f-re this court by letters of request from the diocese of Gloucester and Bristol. , Mr. Evans,,the party prosecuting the snit, was a gen- Aletran of property, and the marriage took place on the 14th of Nov:, 1850; at St. George's, Hanover-square, his wife;•then Miss Carrington, being at that time about 26 years of age. They at first, took up their abode at Leicester' bat after a short time th ey returne d to Chel tenham: Mrs. Evans-objected, however, to live with her mother-in law, and a. separation took place on the 10th of May, 1851, Mr. Evans agreeing' to make his 'wife an allowance of 2501 per annum, with an additional 10C/. a year on the death of his mother, who was 71 years of age. The party charged as the paramour was Mr. R. A. Robinson, a magistrate arid deputy-lieutenant of the county of, Gloucester, a married man , b ut not li v i ng with his wife. The libel, admitted on behalf of Mr. Evans, alleged that Mr. Robinson had paid Mrs. Evans great attention subsequently to her return to her father's house after the separation ; and that in July, 1853, When she came to London, she resided in lodgings taken for her by him at No. 15, Edgeware-road. It was also stated that Mr. Robinson obtained a latch key, 'in order that be might have access to Mrs. Evans' apartments without summon ing the servant. It was further alleged tbat he frequently accompanied her to the theatres and to other places of amusement ; that when he visited her the blinds were drawn . down although the sun was not shining ; and that on these occasions adultery was committed. In January, 1854, Inspector Field, the ex-detective, was employed to watch the suspected- parties, who in the meantime had returned to Cheltenham ; and it was al. leged that they were in the habit of walking o r r iding . Out alone, and of frequenting secluded spots. It was pleaded that adOltery was committed on these occa sions. In .the sumitier of the same year Mr. Robinson again engaged apartments for Mrs. Evans—this time at the house .ef Maria Welsh, otherwise King, in Bryanston squara. Mrs. Evans was accompanied to town by her Cousin, Mr. Mylins, formerly a lieutenant in the army, but then a student in divinity. The libel went on to accuse the parties of a repetition in Bryanston-'quare of the conduct with which they were charged in Edgware road. Mr. Mylins was seldom at home except at meal times, and darling his absence Mrs. Evans was constantly visited by Mr. Robinson. On two occasions, on the 4th and sth of July, Mr. Mylins left the house after luncheon ; and circumstances were said to have then occurred which, if credited, would be decisive for the divorce. These transactions were deposed to by three female witnesses, who had been set by Field to watch the parties through a• gimlet-hole made in the door for that purpose. An action for cram. con. had been duly brought, and a verdict of 5001. had been given against Mr. Robinson. In an additional article the parties were charged with a distinct act of adultery in the open air, in the neighbourhood of Cheltenham. The responsive allegation onibtahalt cif Mrs, Nvana met all the general eb i argia with a general denial, And asserted`that the inti macy or Mris. - Evans 'with Mr. Robinson was not greater than might properly exist between --lady and a friend of the family. !With regard to the distinct acts of adul tery, an alibi was set up. On the 4th July she was visited by Mr. Robinson, and by the Rev. Joseph Thac keray, who was accompanied by hie little boy. The party went into Hyde-park for a walk ; and after a time Mr. Robinson left them, and never saw her again that day. Mr. Thackeray continued with Mrs. Evans until one o'clock, after which he went to the house of Mrs. Robinson, Mr. Robinson's mother, where he lunched with the family, Mr. Robinson being present. After this Mr. Robinson went out to a druggist's to have a prescription made up, and on his return he dressed for riding. Then he went to a cabmaster and ordered a cab to go to the Great Western Railway to meet some friends he was expecting by the train. Afterwards he rode to the Paddington station. He arrived at about four o'clock, and he stayed there till a quarter before five. Having received his friends and placed them in the cab, he returned to Hyde-park and rode for some time. He accounted for the following day in a similar manner ; •having on this occasion to meet Mr. and Mrs. Carrington at Paddington. Mrs. Evans also gave an account of her' engagements on the days in question altogether inconsistent with the idea of her guilt. With respect to the alleged act of adultery at Cheltenham, it was averred that Mr. Robinson was in London at the time ; and in answer to the verdict, it was pleaded that in,a previous action for trim. con. the decision was in favour of Mr. Robinson ; but a new trial had been after wards granted. Dr. ,Tenner (with whom was Dr. Bayford) admitted that the charge 'with respect to the offence said to have been committed at Cheltenham could not be sustained ; but he contended that the alibi in the other cases did not . so fully, account for Mr. Robinson's time that an oppor tunity was not afforded for committing the offence. float being so, ho urged that the evidence of the wit nesses i who had looked through the gimlet hole was worthy of belief, and that the court ought 10 pronounce for the divorce. ' The Queen's Advocate and another learned gentle man,Trohre. p contra, choiulir:mroe i r n see s r is vo t eb e a sdeirtovs judgmen t . t id h g e men perfect sufficiency of the alibi, and- • DENISON V. DITCHER. thatsin . ce the learned judge had decided that an appeal did not lie to him from the court of Bath - and Wells, the Queen's Bench judges had put a different construction upon the statute, in conse quence of which a mandamus, had issued, to which he believed no opposition would be =ide. Sir J. Dodson said the court had been served with a mandamus, which it bad handed to the registrar. The Court of Queen's Bench had no right to order him to adMit the lihel ip the case,,but he had received it. . The Admiralty Advocate observed that the order was a clerical error. His only 'desire was that the case Should be heard as early as possible. The subject then dropped. ,1..r;3 ° . MIDDLESEX SESSIONb.--Feb. 13. ---- (Before Mr. Pashley, Q.C., Assistant-Judge.) Thomas Cooper, 34, was brought up for judg ment. • He pleaded guilty on a former day of hav ing embezzled three sums of money which he had received on account of Thomas Dawkins, his mas ter, who stated that the total amount which the prisoner had appropriated was about 601., ranging over nearly 200 instances of embezzlement, in al most all of which he had committed forgery. A return of the conviction fur felony in 1841 was put in against the prisoner. The prisoner said he was a mere boy when that conviction took place, and he had ever since earned 'a living - honestly. He bad worked for one master regard this for six years, and for another five years , all in one firm, and had now a wife and children all • de pendent upon him for support. Th e Assistant -Judge said he should not take into long . ago, a i conviction , na, verya as it case. It was one for which but a few years ago .considerat b io u n t the previous his life would have been forfeited, and had the magistrate sent him elsewhere to be tried for for 'gerY, he must have been convic'ed of that crime, serious wso and in all probability transported for a considerable number of years. Under these circumstances he could not pass a more lenient sentence than four years' penal servitude.

MANSION-ROUSE.- - CHARo OF ROBBING AN EMPLOXER. —Charles Everad, a journeyman in th employ of Mr. PO ale a chronometer iaak , , , r, carry ing On business in Ferichurch-streirt; Was broneht before the Lord Mayor, charged with having robbed his employer of p ro p er t y o f t h e value of 151. Mr. Poole, th e prosecu t or, h av i ng b een swotn , said.-The prisoner had b een i n m y em ployment for a. considerab'e time, and f or : the 1-st two , ye its I have missed various articles from,nly st6ck, until yesterday I had not been able to fix the en•lt upon any of my workmen. On Monday last pert of a gold watch-case was brought to 11;4', which I immediately recognised'as a portion_,of the article: I had missed.

I haye also asco,itain , d that the person who pledged this a'so pledged an other case, part of an unfinished chr`Onometer, my prePerty. • • • Mr. Button, a member of the Society of Friends, also in the service of the prosecutor, said—Yester day, I saw at a pawnbroker's, at Islingron, part of a chronometer, belonging to my employer, wh'ch was delivered to the prisoner to compb-te sever.' months ago. If a remand be granted, I.b-lieve I shall be able to prove that the property was pledg( d by the prisoner's wife. The Prisoner, who declined putting any, questions to the witnesses, was remanded. BOW-STREET. —ASSAITLT —Sarah Myers, who keeps a house of ill-fame in Eagle-court, and Mary 4136 •H 9 rrigan, her . servant, were charged .with violently assaulting a gen i lent nam F. icon er. The complainant was passing along-the Strand, about *twelve o'clock on Thursday night,! when a gaudily-dressed woman made a snatch at bre.;st, he believed at his - watch chain. In pirshing her away, he accidentally struck her in the face. She ceased to molest him, and he went on. Presently he turned into one of the numero i r i s i c , courtsl e t a n d e i r n e g . out of the Strand, to call at a printing He was followed into the court by the fmisoners, whom he had not seen before. They aked. what ho meant by striking the woman. He bale them leave him atone, and turned to go into the office, when they sprang upon him from behind, seized him by the throat, and struck him about the head and face. Before he could offer any resistance he was knocked down, but as the potboy from a neighbouring pub lic-house entered the court, the prisoners made off. Some time 'after complainant again met the pri sonerS in the Strand, .and gave them in charge. Mr. Lewis, for the - defence, set up that the com plainant had used undue violence to the woman, and that the prisoners were provoked by their friend's 41-usage, and hoped that, under these cir cumstances, a small fine would ba considered sufficient. Mr. Jardine said that if she had really been ill wed, she would probably have appeared to say When any respectable person was attacked as the prosecutor had been, and an attempt made to rob him, .he (Mr. Jardine) did not know what be was to do but4Ash the assailant away; and if Vie latter Was hurt it was not to be wondered at. The inter ference of the prisoners could only be explained by supposing that they supplied ,the unfortunate crea ture with finery, and were watching to make the most profit of their prOpePtY. They must pay 20s. each, or be imprisoned for 14 days. The fines were paid. CLERKENWELL. -- ASSAULT UPON .A. WIPE AND CHILD. —James Malley, a - dirty-lo king fellow, described on the charge-sheet_ as a marine-store dealer and shoemaker, residing at - No. IA, 'Little Ceram-street, S k . Pancras, and who has been'seve raFtimes in custody for- assaults' upon women, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged with assaulting and kicking Amelia Pattr ion, under the folio - Wing circumstances It appeared from the evidence of Atnelia'Pater son, the step-daughter of the prisoner,' a girl about 12 years of age, that the defendant had been getting drunk for the last three or four days, and had been her mother by kicking and striking her• about the 'head and body. Ou Wednesday night her father-in-law. returned home in the evening very drunk, and after as usual, hewing her mother, turned round and kibked her on the thigh, and knocked her down. Although she was very much hurt, at the solicitation of the mother defendant was Mot given into custody. Last night, between eight , - and nine o'clock, he again rowelled home the worse for liquor, and knocked her mother down. When she got uR.,/fe . 'began to beat her mother about, and upon -hoe! -going near them, he turned round and stritekrbir•a violent blow, and kicked her in exactly the same place that he did the night before. Of so brutal a nature was the ki,:lr, that she had walked lame ever since, and was now suffering great pain. Prisoner--Now, then, tell me wheth- r you did not 'Strike me first ? ' Mr. Tyrwhitt—Well, certainly„ an infant like the witness must have hurt you very much. The witness further r:marked that h'er father was iu the habit of getting drunk for three or four days together, and when he was in that sta 4 e he' very much ill-used her mother. Mr. Frederick Gougb, a fishmonger, residing next door to the defendant, said he saw the wife struck down, and.upon the child going to the assist ance of her mother the defendant turned round, kicked her in the most violent and brutal manner, from the effects' of which she even now walked lame. The man was a very good.man when sober, but when drunk was a perfect nuisance. Prisoner—Did you 'see me strike my wife, and did you not see the child strike me 1. Witness—l know you behave very bully to your wife. It was only the night before that I prevented you from strangling her. As for the child touching you,•-it is all fudge. •The wife stated that she could not live with the prisoner any longer. He beat and knocked her about whenever be got the worse for liquor.. Had it not -been' for the 'last witness she would .have been strangled, 'for he got a cord, and, notwithstanding her struggles, twisted it twice or three times round her neck. Her husband had had six months for assaulting her, and had been three or four times in prison' for assaults. She had also paid nine or ten fines for him. When he was' sober ho was a very good husband, but he so often got.-drunk that she would live with him no longer. _ The prisoner, in defence, sa;d be was very sorry for what he had done, ,and honed that his worship would look over it thie time. 'Mr. Tyrivhitt said that the cases of, assaults upon women • and children were the most diffi cult that the law was intended to deal with. The wife could not control the husband from getting drunk, and when he . was drunk it was proved that ho was very violent. The wife and child must be protected from his bru'al conduct, 'and while he was protecting them he was doing the same for the prisoner. When the pri soner was drunk be might take rife, which was very easily done. He should send the prisoner to the House of Correction for three calendar months, with bard labour, at the expiration of which time he should further order him to find two good sure ,ies to keep the peace for three calendar months. The prisoner was then removed. ' OPERATIONS IN CANTON RiVee IN 1847.—A. corre• spondence relative to the operations in the Canton river in the year 1847 appeared yesterday in print. It passed between Lord Torrington and Earl Grey, Major-General D'Agnilar and , Major-General Smelt, ,Major-General Smelt and, Lord F. Somerset, E trl Grey and Major- General D'Aguilar. • The correspondence referred to an ,application for a reinforcement of hall a company of artillery, with guns and ammunition, to be held in readi ness to be forwarded to Hong Kong, should circum istanees render it ,necessary to -undertake : any further militaryloperations at Canton. Earl Grey, then Colonial Secretary, replied to Major-General tl'Aguilar, in Nov., I 1847, refusing the detachment applied for, and peremp torily forbidding him to undertake any further offensive operations against the Chinese without the previous sanction of the Home Government. THE SILK TRADE.—SiIks are continuing to rise, and nothing, it appears, can save their going up to indefinite prices. The reports we continually receive from some of the leading houses in Lyons might lead us to believe that ere long a silk dress will become almost as g; eat a luxury as an Indian shawl; at all events, nothing short of a most abundant crop of French and Italian silk, the 1 prospect of Which will not be ascertained Wild! next May, can by any possibility lessen the price of glace and the 4 other finer classes of silk. China silk may, it is true, be greatly' need by the Manchester manufacturers. Until the Chinese have become acquainted with the mode of win i ! ; .;,g from the cocOon, and also preparing the silk after the manner of the 'French and Italians, we must entirely depend upon the sources alluded to. Those firms were fortunate indeed that gave their orders even last Autumn for the supply of silks for this Spring's con sumption; and the facilities of getting to Lyons, which enable the large retail dealers to journey thence, must be a source of immense saving and advantage to the public. We know that.Messrs..Tay, of Regent-street, gave large orderifor black glaee silks last September, to be supplied in 1857, and that they have actually been offered by more than one manufacturer, an d h ave declined, a large sum to cancel their engagements.
