_~ _- ;; _- NEM gird,to the position of this country, he could not but feel that the restitutions which this country was enabled to make, that the subsidies which she had granted, was a sufficient guarantee of the faith which they had professed to keep. When he looked to the noble post which this country assumed, and which she had been enabled to maintain—when he recollected , that this country had acted as a sea-mark to the whole world, be felt assured that whatever position she might assume, that her honour and her principle remained intact. When be leaked back to the position which she bad taken at the e arlier period of the revolutionary war of France , and at the . position which she had assumed afterwards , h e felt thisre mach to be utterly unmerited, and that her disinte reste d ness was wu entirely clear. In making thin candid avowal h e the perfectly frank in the declaration of his opinions, and d 1 firm belief that after a treaty of thirty years stan ding that no infraction ought to have been commit ted without a previous announcement to all the parties inter ested, and the three Powers who had been parties to this contract ought not to have acted without notification to the other great Powers with whom they were enghged—(ilear , hear)—and opinion of nhe that this was a question amen able to t he p ublic d thought Europe. —( Cheers .) He grea tl y questioned the po licy which had been pursued. for he did not believe that it woul d be wise to act upon the wild declarations of demagogues rather than upon the assumptions and deductions of statesmen. But there did at the same time pervade the intelligence anti feeling of a great part of the community, a sincere desire to witness the progress of sober and well considered national freedom, t h er e had always been felt a strong objection to any thing like retrogression!, there was a strong feeling now in ex istence which sympathised with one power whose liberality was, perhaps, least to be expected. There wes a strange desire in this country to assist the progress of those reforms which were being carried out by the spiritual power of another country. and with respect to Cracow it was felt that the three Powers had violated every principle of intellig ence and independence. The treaty of Vienna, in providi ng for the freedom of the town of Cracow, intended to give an example of a free Polish constitution, and independence. The Noble Lord opposite had stated that it was impossible that Poland could be restored to its previous ex istence, but he begged to remind the Noble Lord that he would find in the correspondence of Lord Castlereagh a dis tinct suggestion to the Emperor of Russia, that his moral du ties would compel him to ameliorate the condition of his poorest subjects. Now, there was one method by which the Emperor of Russia could have carried out that suggestion its a favourable manner, namely, by restoring the Poles to their rights as an independent community. Lord Castlereagh conveyed to the Emperor of Russia, on the part of Austria and Prussia, a dis tinct assurance that those Powers would readily acquiesce in the necessary accomplishment of that object. 'The Noble Lord would find that the correspondence contained a feeling, he would not say a condition, that the Emperor of Russia would give to Poland in a new form something of a national character. In the treaty of Vienna it was declared that Poles, who were theesabjects of Austria and Prussia, should obtain representatire and natio al institutions, to be regulated ac eording to the degree of political consideration each of the Governments to which they belonged should judge expedient and proper. Whether or not the conduct of the Poles in 1831 justified the withholding of these national institu tions was another miter; but what he contended for was, that the treaty of Vienna intended that independence and free Government should be given to the Poles, who were the subjects of Austria, Prussia, and Russia. He must again sly that he deeply regretted what had passed. He could not find any sufficient justification for this conduct with regard to Cra cow. He thought the arguments urged in support of the course were as serious as the course itself, and he heartily approved of the protest that was entered to it by the Noble Lord. He thought the Noble Lord acted wisely in deter mining the rela•ions in which this country stood with regard to France to protest on behalf of this country, in a perfectly separate and independent character. He concurred in the tenor of the protest, and felt it to be his d.ty to give to the Government such support as might be found in the simple expression of his opinion in favour of the course they had, and were, pursuing. Sir J. WALSH moved the adjournment of the debate. Lord J. RUSSELL could not too strengly express his un willingness that this debate should be adjourned.—( Hear, hear.) Because it would be exceedingly injurious to the carrying on of the public business of the State. They had before them a meet important question, deeply affecting the welfare and safety of one portion of the United Kingdom, and the adjournment of the debate might interfere with its pro. press. He had repeatedly felt in the past session the greatest inconvenience from having Bills of great importance deferred till a late period of the session, when the number of Members attending the House of Commons was greatly diminished, while he had felt still more strongly the inconvenience arising from sending measures to the Upper House of Parliament when a sufficient number of Peers could nut be found in Lon don to attend de:iberattly and properly to the necessary legis lation of the country. He therefore objected on public grounds to this debate being adjourned WI Tuesday. He thought that the motion of the Hon. Member should not be allowed to interfere with those great subjects brought tin • der the consideration of the !louse by the Government with re spect to Ireland. He hoped the debate would be continued un. tit it was decided, and that the House would not come to an adjou nment,— (Hear, hear.) M. W. S. O'F%RIEN thought that justice would not be done to the subject by continuing it at the pres6it time. He had wished to address the House liimsai upon the subject, arid he had also had atornmnnication with his Hon. Friend the Member for Shrewsbury, and several other lion. Members, who had not yet addressed the House, but wished to do so. He hoped that the debate would be adjourned, and if the Government were not disposed to concede that point, he was prepared to divide the liou-e upon the question of adjournment. Mr. L A BOUCHERE sac surprised that any argument in favour of the adjournment of the debate should have come from the lien. Member for Limerick.—( Cheers. ) The Go vernment had be.n accused by that Hon. Member, and other Irish Members. of doing nothing for Ireland, anti h' certainly was not prepa-ed to hear any proposition for putting off the measure proposed by the Government, emanate from the Irish Members. He thought that it would be most unfortunate, considering the-pre.ent affairs of Ireland, if the present debate was adjourned. It was absolutely necessary that a speedy de cision should be come to by the House upon the subject of the measure proposed by the Government for Ireland, and he hoped that n:) course would be pursued by the House calculated to im- Mde the progress of those measures. He thought that for Irish embers to propose the adjournment of a debate upon Poland,, to the exausion of questions relating to Ireland, was certainly most strange, especially after the charges which had been made by Irish Members against the Government. Mr. W. S. O'BRIEN said that had he known that the debate was to be adjourned until Tuesday next he would not have supported the present adjournment ; it was because he thought that the debate was to be resumed on Tuesday, and thereby not interrupt the course of public business that he had supported the adjournment of the debate. Mr. M. O'CONNELL had heard with regret the language of the Right lion. Member the Secretary for Ireland to the effect, that Irish Members ought not to take a part in debates upon the condition of Poland, he thought that there was no question so near to Irishmen. and upon which they might so well claim the attention of the House, as upon questions con nected with Poland, the eastern Ireland of Europe.—( Hear. ) Mr. LABOUCHERE denied that he had said anything which might be construed into an argument against Irish Members joining in a discussion in that House upon the affairs of Poland. Whit he had said was, that he was surprised that Irish Members should, for the sake of Poland, oppose any obstacles to the measures proposed by her Majesty's Govern ment for the relief of the great distress at present existing in Ireland. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that he did not distinctly hear what the Hon. Member said when he moved the adjournment of the debate. He though: he appointed this day for resuming the debate, and it was upon that understanding that he made the observations he did. He had no objection, however, that it should be adjourned till Tuesday the day the Hon. Member appointed. The debate was accordingly adjourned. HARBOURS, DOCKS, AND PIERS BILL. This Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be com mitted. LANDED PROPERTY (IRELAND) BILL. On the order of the day for the further consideration of the. report on this Bill, The Earl of LINCOLN moved the amendment he proposed on Monday last with respect to corn mills. Mr. STAFFORD O'BftlEN seconded the motion. After a few words from Mr. BELLEW and Mr. VESET, • Sir D. NORREVS and Sir R. FERGUSON were in favour of making the clause as general as possible. Sir R. PEEL considered that a greater number of corn mills would be constructed, if they were left to private interest than if they were interfered with, as proposed by the Bill. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER acceded to the proposition of the Noble Lord, and all the words after " stones were accordingly omitted from the clause—thus leaving these mills and other buildings to the parties interested, Seme further verbal alterations in the Bill having been made, the report was agreed to. The House then adjourned at Half-past One o'clock. PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS. (From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of Commons.)

SHERIFFS' COURT, March 11. (Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BITICRELL.) CAOUCIIIIIK V. THOMAS. ILLxGAL DIsTELESS.—This was an action to recover damages for an illegal seizure and detention of the plaintiff's goods. The damages were laid at 500/. Mr. THOMAS, counsel for the plaintiff, stated the case. The plaintiff is a gentleman residing in St. James's-street, Buck ingham-gate, and the defendant is an auctioneer, residing in Leicester-square. The Learned Counsel said the defendant was merely the agent of another party against whom he had his remedy. The plaintiff had obtained his goods back, and now sought for damages for the injury done to them by the removal, and also for the inconvenience caused by the plain tiff and his family having been obliged to go into furnished lodgings until they recovered back the goods. Mr. J. 11. Croucher, brother of the plaintiff, proved that on the 3d of December a demand was made by defendant cf 225/. for rent alleged to be due to a Mr. Michael Sumption. Defendant was told that the claim was unjust, as no such person was known to plaintiff, but defendant said all he could do was to leave a man in possession, and did so. The goods were afterwards removed. Plaintiff and his family had to leave. Mr. Roasos, defendant's attorney, took an objection to any evidence being given of any special damage. The UNIER•SREItIFF hell that the declaration was only for the detention of the goods. Mr. THOMAS asked what title Mr. Sumptien set up, but the witness could not say. In cross-examination the witness said plaintiff had lived in the house for seven or eight years. Did not know to whom rent was paid. A person had previously been in possession under a bill of sale, put in by Mr. Toplis, an auctioneer. Mr. THomAs said the defendant by not pleading had ad mitted the detention of the goods. Mr. ItonsoN, for the defendant, said that he did not mean for a moment to contend that the defendant was not liable, but the plaintiff had not shown that he ever paid rent to any one, and it was not at all unlikely that a person might have an equitable right, although not a legal one, to enforce the rent. There was no proof of removal, or of any damage done to the property, and it only came to the imaginary de tention of the goods by a man sitting in the kitchen ; there fore, he thought the very smallest damages would suffice. The UNDER-SHERIFF said that the jury must only give damages for the detention. The jury gave a verdict for 11. 19s. This, however, caul( a costs. SCOTT V. lIITCHENS. The plaintiff in this case is a surgeon, and the defendant a member of the llall of Commerce. The action was brought to recover the sum of 41. 15s. fur medicine supplied. There was no evidence of the nature or value of the medi cines. The defendant's Solicitor submitted, that the plaintiff must be nonsuited, as he had not proved that he had a cer • tificate of the Apothecaries company. Mr. THOMAS said he would not be nonsuited. The UNDER-SHERIFF said, he thought it better to go to the jury; but told them, that, in his opinion, they could only give a verdict for nominal damages; but it was fur them to determine. Mr. THOMAS said, it was prored that twenty boxes and bottles had baen delivered. _ The UNDER-SIIERIFF.—But there is not a word of evi dence as to value. The jury gave a verdict for I/. 15s. The ATTORNEY applied for the writ to be de`ained until next term. The UNDER-SHERIFF said he would retain the writ as Mr. Thomas had refused to be nonsitited ; but if the defendant knew when he was well off, he would take the verdict as it stood. MAYOR r. EI.LIS. The plaintiff in this case is the landlady of the Queen's Head Inn, Pinner, and the defendant isa gentleman residing at the same place. The action was brought to recover the sum of 111. 155., for beer, gin, &C, supplied to the defendant's servants. _ . _ . vv It appeared by the evidence that in July last a fire broke out in the rick-yard of the defendant, at a time when the defendant was absent. The fire continued three days and three nights, during which time 144 gallons of beer with spirits, and also rump steaks and cigars, were ordered, which were now charged for. For the defendant it was submitted that the plaintiff must be nonsuited, as any general order by servants could not be taken as by the implied authority of the master. The lINDEn-SHERIFF said that he considered it ought to be implied in such a case where a master was absent, and his property would be destroyed if efficient assistance was not rendered, and in this case refreshment was necessary, the only question was whether the goods had been ordered - or not by the defendant's servants. _ _ - Gaffney, the defendant's servant, was called, and swore ha did not give general orders to plaintiff, but sent for refreshment from other houses. There was a gang of " vagabonds' there who ordered beer, and sat in the hedges and drank it, but did not work. his wife was the house keeper, and might have ordered some. The UNDER-SIIEILIFP said there were some small charges for cigars, rump-steaks, &c., which perhEps the jury might think might well be given for assis'ance to persons who were not paid in any other manner. The jury gave a verdict for Ili. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. John Collins and John M'Kenzie, two dock labourers, were indicted Cs stealing a quantity of fat, the property of John ‘Vlieen and another. • . --- The prosecutors carried on an extensive business as tallow melters, in John-street, St. George's-in-the-East, and two men were observed on the night of the 3d inst. leaving the premises, one of whom was fully identified by a policeman as the prisoner 111‘lienzie. The other the constable thought was Collins, but he could not undertake to swear to it ; however, there was found the impress of a shoe in the mass of fat from which the piece was stolen, which corresponded in every point with the shoe found upon Collins when taken into custody. The jury acquitted Collins, and returned a verdict of Guilty against 11I•Kenzie, who was sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. Joint Gilbert, a native of St. Helena, and who although but a few years in this country, has been several times con victed of felony, was indictod for stealing 35., the property of Seik Gouri Abdulla. _ _ _ The prosecutor, who was a native of Bombay, wee sworn upon the Koran in the usual form, and stated that the day after he arrived in England from India, he met the prisoner in a public-house in Ratcliffe, and after treating him to some thing to drink, the prisoner took a bag, in which was the 35., from his (prosecutor's) pocket, and said he would go and buy him some clothes. They accordingly went out together, when the prisoner desired him to wait at the corner of a street while he went to get the clothes for him, but he never saw him afterwards until he was taken into custody. The jury having returned a verdict of Guilty, The ASSISTANT-Junes sentenced him to be transported for ten years. A singular-looking individual, named Charles Augustus Cook, was indicted for stealing a cushion, the property of Thomas Thick. It appeared that the prisoner was met near New Brentford carrying the cushion under his arm, by a constable, who took him into custody; and, upon inquiry, ascertained that it be longed to the prosecutor, who is an omnibus proprietor in Brentford. The jury found him Guilty, and The JUDGE said to the prisoner, " I think you and I are old acquaintances." Prisoner—Yes, we are. The JODGE.—And after you were convicted by me you wrote me a letter, stating your intention to apply to the Secretary of State, in order that the majesty of the law might be vindicated. Prisoner—Yes, and as you did not answer my letter you perceive I have come too see you again. The JUDIBE-1 think your condition requires that I should send you for a long time where you will be taken care ef. The prisoner —Yes, you can send me to Pentonville. The JUDGE—No, I think Hanwell will suit you better. I shall sentence you to 12 months' imgrisonment in the West minster Bridewell, when I trust the Governor will bear in mind my remarks, and take such steps as the state of the prisoner's mind may require. The prisoner made a low bow to the Judge, and thanked him. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. SENTENCES AND SESSIONAL RESULTS.

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York March 9. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron RoLFE.) Henry Walton, aged 37, stood charged with having on the 3d of December, 1846. at Midgley, in the parish of Halifax, feloniously assaulted Thomas Greenwood, and violently stolen from his person 35 half-crowns, and some shillings, his property. Mr. Pickering, with whom was Mr. Eastwood. conducted the prosecution, and the prisoner was defended by Mr. Alatthews. It appeared that the prisoner and the prosecutor, who is 1 also a farmer, had both been working for a Mr. Smith, of 1 Hebden-bridge, from whom they had taken out wool to comb, and the prisoner had been so employed for several years be lore the robbery. On the 3d of December Greenwood, toge ther with others in the same employ, had brought work to the factory, and they had there received a 10/. note, which was to be divided among them according to the several amounts of their wages. They went to an inn, called the Shuttle and Anchor, near the factory, and there, being fatigued, had something to drink. While there the prose cutor saw the prisoner enter, and he also stayed some time drinking. Greenwood did not leave till between eight and nine, or after nine, and then had about two miles to go from that place, Luddenfoot, to his residence, which was near to where the prisoner lived. When about half way two persons came behind him suddenly, and one of them knocked him down, when his money was taken and carried off. The blow was made with a bludgeon. and inflicted a wound on his head, which bled much. He was for some time deprived of his senses, and lay in the road; but upon coming again to him self he got up and went to the house of a man named Whit taker. It was a little before midnight. Whittaker took him in, and afterwards conducted him back to the public-house he had left. Greenwood was positive that the prisoner was one of the men by whom he had been robbed; said he was not drunk, though he might be a little "concerned" by what he had taken, which consisted of two glasses of rum and one quart of ale, and denied that he had told Whittaker he could not speak to the persons of those who had robbed him. In addition to this, Mr. Smith, one of Greenwood's em ployers, stated that he had seen both Greenwood and the prisoner at the Shuttle and Anchor that evening, when Greenwood was certainly somewhat the worse for liquor. And two women, living close by, stated that the prisoner had been at their houses that night, and had left one of them just before the robbery. To go to his own house he would have to take the road upon which the prosecutor had met with the violence. The wlacle case appeared to depend upon the evidence of the prosecutor, and whether he had really been sufficiently in hi., senses to identify either of the robbers, and to recollect what account he had himself given of the transaction. For the defence, Mr. Matthews having ascertained from Smith that the prisoner had been working as a woolcomber tOr four or five years, and constantly maintaining his family by his wages, proceeded to examine witnesses to prove an alibi, and to show that Walton was, in fact, at house and in bed at the time of the offence. This was spoken to by the prisoner's sister, and another person who had met him on the road near his house. In addition to which, Wm. Whittaker. to whom the prosecutor went that night, swore that he (Greenwood) had declared immediately after the robbery that he was unable to say who committed it. He had said that there were two men who so came behind him, but that he did not know them. • After some deliberation by the jury, the prisoner w•as Acquitted.. WESTERN ClRCUlT.—Salisbury, March 9. CROWN COURT.—( Before Mr. Justice CuEsswiet.L.) James Russal was indicted for having feloniously set fire to a certain rick of straw, the property of Eliza Bell. Mr. Slade was counsel for the prosecution. The prisoner was undefended. It appeared that on the night of the 2d February last, a neighbour of Mrs. Bell's was looking out of his window just before going to bed, and his attention was attracted to a in the rick yard of Mrs. Bell, and on looking more pArticii - lady he saw that one of her ricks was on fire. The fire flashed up the rick, and the witness saw a man stooping down under the rick by the fire. On the fire flashing up. as it was described to do by the witness, the man stood up and became distinctly visible, the rick not being above 100 yards from the window. The man was dressed in a pair of leather gaiters, smock frock, and high-crowned hat. He then ran away. The witness immediately went to the rick to give assistance, and there saw a policeman, who came up at the same moment, and whom he informed as to what he had seen, and the direction which the man who had been seen by him at the rick had taken, and also described his dress. Evidence was then given to show that the prisoner was ap prehended between four and five o'clock the next morning, when he was dressed in the way described by the first wit ne.=.s. He was found in an outhouse, lying amongst some straw, and said, when he was apprehended, that he had been lying there ever since nine the night before. It was then proved that the prisoner, who was a labourer and out of work, had on various occasions threatened to injure the pro secutrix, because her bailiff bad refused to give him work, it was also proved that the prisoner was going towards the place where the rick was burned just before the fire broke oat Mr. Justice CRESSWELL having summed up, The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was then sen tenced to ten years transportation. James Glass was indicted for having stolen two promissory notes of the value of 51. each, the property of Mark Sawyer. Mr. Rogers and Mr. Poulden conducted the prosecution ; the prisoner was undefended. Mr. ROGERS having opened the case to thej ury. The jury almost immediately found the prisoner Guilty. Sentence deferred. HOME CIRC ULT.—Chelmsford, March 10. CROWN SlDE.—(Before the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE.) William Mason, 20, John Clegg, 21, and WilCant Smith, 17, three miserable-looking lads, were indicted for feloniously setting fire to five stacks of corn, the property of Arthur Sbuttleworth. Mr. Rodwell conducted the prosecution. It appeared from the evidence that the prosecutor is a farmer at Upminster, and on the 26th of September, about one o'clock in the day, he saw that the stacks in question were safe in the rick-yard, and the prisoners were observed sitting upon the gate leading into it. Very soon afterwards the stacks were observed to be on fire, and although the neighbours speedily rendered all the assistance in their power the result was that two stacks of wheat, and three others composed of beans, peas, and oats, worth altogether 240/., were entirely consumed. The case against the prisoners was that they were upon the spot at the moment the fire appeared to break out, and they immediataly made off, without offering to render any assistance, and were taken into custody a mile and a half from the place, and upon their being searched an empty lucifer match-box was found in Smith's pocket. The pri soners were entire strangers to the neighbourhood, and it would seem that they had been begging about the country. There did not appear to be the slightest motive for the act, except that it was suspected they had not received much charity from the persons living in the neighbourhood, and committed the offence out of a feeling of revenge. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE having summed up, the jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the prisoners, but re commended them to the merciful consideration of the Court on account of their youth. His LORDSHIP, in passing sentence, said that he was always anxious to give effect to a recommendation of mercy coming from the jury, and he should do so in this case, to the extent of not inflicting the full sentence of transportation. but it was absolutely necessary that persona convicted of this odious offence should receive a severe punishment. In the present state of the country, and the prospects beTore them, the destruction of grain was nut only doing a great mischief to the owners of such property, but to the whole population of the country, and if the crime should go on spreading, the consequences could hardly be conceived. He then sentenced the prisoners to be transported for ten years. In the course of the day, the grand jury returned two true bills of perjury and conspiracy against some of the parties who were examined as witnesses before the coroner, in the inquiry respecting the murder of the police-constable at Dagenham. The ti ial will not come on at the present assizes, as the charges only amount to a misdemeanour, which entitles the defendants to traverse, and the indictment, therefore, will not be disposed of until the summer assizes. CIVIL SIDE. Mr. Justice CRESsysti stated that it appeared to him that a very important question would be raised in it, as to whether any larceny had been committed; but he should not stop the ease, but let it go to the jury, and, if necessary, reserve the point for the consideration of the fifteen judges. Mr. Mark Sawyer, a millwright, living at Cheveril, stated that he had occasion to make a remittance to a Mr. Ormond, of Milksham, and Mr. Rawlings, of Trowbridge. He ad dressed two envelopes to those gentlemen. He gave them to his wife with two 51. notes, with some instructions on paper to the postmistress to obtain a post-office order for si. for Mr. Rawlings, and one for Mr. Ormond. The notes were shown to him two days after. Mary Sawyer, the wife of the last witness, proved taking the notes and the envelopes to Mrs. Dutch, the postmistress at Cheveril, and also the paper of instructions. Mrs. Dutch proved that she received the notes, envelopes, and instructions from Mrs. Sawyer. The Cheveril office was a sub-dice t, Westbury, and the prisoner was the letter carrier from Westbury to Cheveril. She gave him the two Si. notes with the envelopes and instructions, directing him to get post-offiee orders for them, and put them in the enve lopes and send them. She then asked him if she should put them in the Cheveril letter-bag. He said yes, and she did so, with the letters, wrapping up the notes and envelopes in the paper of instructions. She then tied up the bag, which was one kept for the convenience of the postmistress, that the letters should not become mixed. The letter bill was also put in the bag. The prisoner had authority to open the bag at Bretton. This bag was then put into a pouch, which he wore around his shoulders, with another bag. It was no part of her duty to obtain post-office orders for persons, nor was it the duty of the prisoner to carry instructions to obtain such orders. Miss Hurd, the niece of the postmistress at Westbury, was then called, and stated that on the morning of the - the prisoner came to the Westbury office with the letters. He gave her his pouch, saying, " There are two 5/. notes in the Cheveril bag for post-office orders for Mr. Sawyer." The witness, on looking into the pouch, found that the Cheveril bag was not there. She told the prisoner this, and he said, "Then lam a ruined man." He then said that he had been taken ill en the road to Bratton that he had opened the pouch to look for a piece of paper which had been wrapped round some let ters which had been given him to post, and he supposed he had dropped the Cheveril bag out. He then went away, saying he would go back and see if he could find it. Some little time after he returned with the Cheveril bag, and gave it to witness. The letters were all right, and corresponded with the writing in the letter bill, but the notes were not there. He then held up two envelopes, and said he had found them by the side of the bag. They were twisted up, and he said he had found them in that state, and there was nothing in them. Upon this Warner, an inspector of police, was sent for. The prisoner was then asked by the inspector how he came to lose the money. and he gave the same ac count of the transaction as he did to the last witness. The inspector told him that his story was inconsistent, and asked him to allow himself to be searched, which, after some hesitation, he consented to. He was searched, but nothing was found on him, and he then took the inspector to the place where he said he had stopped on the road. Nothing, however, was found there. He was then taken to the station. A policeman was then called, who stated that he saw the prisoner's wife's son on the morning after the prisoner was taken up. He went to the lock-up-house, where his father was confined. He then went away, and returned in about half an hour; he then spoke to the witness, and gave him two five-pound notes, which were produced. Edwin Orchard, the son of the prisoner's wife, was then called, and stated that he carried the prisoner his breakfast in the lock-up-house. His father-in-law told him to go home and ask his mother for two five-pound notes. and carry them about a mile out on the Bratton road, put them down and then bring them back and swear that he found them. He did so—did as he was requested. He then went to West bury, and gave the notes to the policeman. Mr. Sawyer was re-called, and identified the notes which had been given to the policeman as those he had given to the prisoner. This was the case for the prosecution. Mr. Justice CRESSWILL having summed up, the jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Justice CRESSWELL then said that the impressioa on his mind was, that he ought to reserve a point for the con sideration of the judges on the question of whether the pri soner was not a mere bailee, and not a servant to the pro secutor, and therefore could not commit a larceny of the property; and it was clear that it was no part of his duty as letter-carrier to take the money from the prosecutor and carry it to the postmistress. He however would consider the point. William Harrell, a strong, athletic, resolute-looking man, of middle age, was indicted for robbery with violence, Mr. BALL conducted the prosecution, The prosecutor, an old man of the name of Roger Watts, stated that he was a shoemaker by trade, but that he was also employed to collect rents. On the day of the robbery he bad been out collecting rents, and in the evening went into a beer-house in the parish of Keovil with money. con sisting of two or three sovereigns and a good many shillings and sixpences. There were several persons in the beer-house who appeared to be conducting themselves somewhat riot ously, and to have alarmed the old man a good deal, for he asked a person who was there, whom he happened to know, to accompany him home, for fear there should be any dan ger, and then ordered and paid for a quart of beer, to be drunk by the other men at the house. This person did ac cordingly accompany him a short distance, when he left him and went back. On his way back he met the prisoner, one of the persons who had been left at the beer-house, and said to him, "So, William, you didn't wait to have the beer.' The prisoner said," ll—n the beer," and walked hastily on. Shortly after this he must have knocked down the prosecutor and robbed him. The prosecutor swore that he knew the man who knocked him down, and called him by his name, saying, " William Harrell, if you rob me, don't murder me." He then became insensible for some time, and when he came to himself he fi amd that all his money was gone ex • cept one sixpence. The prisoner was afterwards seen at a beer house at Bath, in the po..session of a good deal of money, and when be was afterwards taken into custody he had upon him one half-sovereign and a great many shillings and sixpences. He had been in regular work till ately, but for the last week or so he had been out of employ. It appeared by the cross examination that the prosecutor had been drinking in the course of the day, but ho swore that be knew very well what he was about. Chief Justice Wilde got through the list of causes by two o'clock to day, the only case which was likely to occupy any time having been referred to arbitration. 77eursday, March 11. THE CASES OF POISONING AT CLAVESING. Sarah Cheslenm was indicted for the wilful murder of Joseph Chesham, her son, by administering him a quantity of arsenic. _ _ _ Mr. M. Chambers, Mr. Wordsworth, and Mr. T. Cham bers, were for the Crown ; Mr. Sergeant Jones and Mr. Charnoch for the prisoner. After the evidence bad been offered, recapitulating the facts of the case, which have already appeared before the public, the Learned Judge summed up, and the jury returned a verdict of Not guilty. MIDLAND Cl itC£ll I:—Lincoln, March 9. CLOTHING V. JAMES. This was an action to recover 100/., the value of a horse sold under a warranty of soundness. HumfreY , Q.C., and Mr. Waddington, were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Whitehurst, Q.C., and Mr. Macauley, were for the defendant. The plaintiff is an extensive horse-dealer at Grantham ; the defendant breeds and sells horses, hi 4 residence being at Nottingham. The horse in question (a hay gelding) was sold at Nottingham fair for 1004, but the morning after his arrival at Grantham he coughed and showed symptoms of disease, and died in three months from the time of sale. There was nothing in the case to distinguish it from the common run of such cases, there being the usual quantum of hard swearing in opposite directions. The jury retired, and after an absence of four hours, came into court, the foreman intimating that there W 23 no proba bility of their agreeing to a verdict. One of the jury called out, "We are nine to three, my Lord." Ultimately it was agreed the jury should be discharged from giving a verdict. ACTION FOR SLANDER—LIE V. JACKSON. Mr. Humfrey, Q. C., and Mr. W. H. Adams were for the plaintiff; Mr. Whitehurst, Q. C., and Mr. Wilmore appeared for the defence. The plaintiff (Mary Lee) is about fifty yeare of age, the sister of a respectable farmer, occupying about 400 acres. The defendant is also a large farmer, in whose service the plaintiff had been for five years in the capacity of house keeper. Upon some slight quarrel she left, and at the time the slanderous words were spoken, she was in the service of a Mr. Foreman. In the autumn of 1845 she was on her way from Boston to Limerick by the packet-boat, and com plaining of being unwell from the heat of the vessel, the de fendant, who was on board, said, "A glass of gin would do Miss Lee good." Plaintiff replied, that if she wante d such a thing she could get it, as Mr. Collard, the packet - m a ster , soldi t. He then said, " You have been drunk scores of times in my house, and have carried stones after stones of bacon of mine by this very packet." These were the words com plained of. The defendant simply pleaded the general issue, not guilty. Mr. WHITSHURST characterised the action as a trumpery one, which ought to be laughed out of court. The LEARNED JUDGE observed, in his summing up, that the plaintiff was entitled to some damage for the attack made on her character, the jury would say what. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, one farthing. (Special Jury.) HUNTLRIF, CLERK, 0. RUSSELL LND ANOTIIRR. Mr. C. SANDERS addressed the jury for the defence, and submitted that it was a question of identity, and that they ought not torely upon the uncorroborated testimony of Watts on this point. He also called a witness, who gave the pri soner a good character for honesty. This was an action brought to recover damages for the dilapidation of the rectory a Biubrook, in this county. The action was brought by the present rector against the exe cutors of the late incumbent. The defendant had paid 2001. into court, and denied further damage. The case was of no interest except to the parties concerned. There was conflicting evidence as to the amount of damages between the plaintiff's witnesses, one of them putting it below the amount paid into court. The jury found for the defendants, a point being reserved of the counts as to waste. OXFORD CII?C —Oxfiord, March 10. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice Maut.E.) Cave was indicted for the murder of Hannah Treadwell, on the 4th August last, at Harley, in this county. Mr. Carrington and Mr. Piggot conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Keating the defence. The facts appeared to be these :—The prisoner, who was a married man, had carried on for some years an improper con • nexien with the deceased , who was a widow, and latterly in very reduced circumstances. She and he frequently quar relled of late, and she was in the habit of following him through the village, and importuning him for money, and abusing him. She, further, wa s jealous of him, and was constantly maki ng i mputat i ons against sonic of the neighbouring women. On the morning in question the prisoner, who had a small pi ece o f ground outside the village , wa s going out towards it with a gun, which he was in the h abit of carrying in his h an d ; an d h e unfortunately met the deceased, who immediately commenced making one of those jealous charges against hi m , i n re f erence to whom he had sp o k en go i ng along. to a neighbour's wife, A scolding quarrel was the result., and she f o ll owe d hi m through the village , and into a path leading to his ground, and they were seen no i more for some tim e , unt il a shot was heard in the direction n which they had gone. He was seen returning soon after through the street in a hurried an d ex cited manner. Two men went in the direction in which the shot was heard, and found the deceased on a b an k a b out 15 feet higher than the p athw ay , quite dead. There was a gun shot wound under the chin, which completely severed the carotid artery, and p ro d uced a.most immediate death. A constable and some neighbours went to arrest the prisoner, mid he at once said , " I have done I must suffer th e l aw and it will be a warning to others. The prisoner's gun was hund loaded, and on being asked why he had loaded it a second time, he said he had done so for the p urpose of shoot himself, but on consideration he . thought it w ou ld b e b etter to have time to repent. The prisoner gave diff eren t ac counts of the transaction. He once said that they were quarrelling as they went along, and he meant to have knocked her down with the gun, but it went off he knew not how. Another time he said, "It was all her doi ng; she was telling such lies about m e, and throwing stones at me. The other day she threw a stone at me, and cut my lip. A s I was going along the path, she followed me on the b an k, abusing me. I stepped u p the bank, intending to knock her down, but I could not reach her, and 1 turned the gun and shot her. Ido not know how it was I pulled the trigger." Mr. KEATING having addressed the jury for the prisoner, His Loinisiiip summed up, and the jury, after about ten minutes' deliberation, returned a verdict of manslaughter. His LORDSHIP, in passing sentence, said the jury had put a merciful construction on the facts given in evidence, in thinking that the prisoner might have had such provocation as would reduce his offence to the crime of manslaughter. It was, however, a most aggravated case, and deserving of the most severe punishment the law awarded to the crime of manslaughter, and the sentence should therefore be trans portation for life. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. SOUTHWARK. Henry Smith and Thomas King, young men in a state of destitution, were charged with stealing a pair of trowsers from a tailor's chop in Tooley-street. The prisoners were observed together lurking about a tailor's shop in the above street, and being watched by a policeman, one of them was seen to take a pair of trowsers from inside the door, and give them to his companion. They were in the act of making their escape when they were pur-• sued and taken into custody. In defence the prisoners said they were starving. and that they were compelled to steal. A small trifle of money being found upon one of them, in accounting for it he said that he pawned his shirt to procure a lodging on such a severe night. Mr. SICKEL said that it was lamentable to see two stout respectable-looking young men placed in such a position, and averring that they committed the offence through distress. Such a defence was no palliation, for if they were reduced to su2h a condition as they described, they would have obtained at all events the shelter of a workhouse ; or they had another alternative rather than be dishonest, namely, to enlist in the army. The Magistrate then committed the prisoners for trial. BAKERS' OPERATIVE SOClETY.—Weduesday night, I at 7 o'clock, a meeting of journeyman bakers, at which there were above a thousand present, was held at the White Conduit House Tavern, for the purpose of taking into con sideration what steps should be adopted for the purp o s e of shortening th e hours of labour. Mr. 'l'. Wakley, M.P., presided. Mr. Ives moved the first resolution, which was to the effect th a t n i g ht l a b our was highly injurious to the parties employ e d— t h a t it p re vented them from enjoying those physical and mental benefits which fell to the lot of other classes of society, while the system also was destruc tive of the domestic happiness of all persons connected with the trade. Mr. Williams seconded the resolution, which was agreed to nem. con. Mr. Heed moved the second reso lution, which was, in effect, to pledge the meeting to carry out he objects they had in view. The resolution was agreed to unanimously, when, after a few speeches the meeting brAte up. SIIOOTERS% BILL- ROAD.—In consequence of t he f ew carriages which now pass upon the high Dover-road, orders have been given by the trust to reduce the width of the carriage way. The roadsmen have taken off three feet or more un each side from Shooters'-hill to Welling. .By this operation the inhabitants have sustained considerable incon venience. The foot paths have baen destroyed, and the contest between the m en and the occupants of houses , who c.)mp , ain of an inroad on private property, is carried on with great asry•rity. We stated last week that several tons of china, glass, and ,arthenware had been packed up at the Palace, ready for removal. One portion of these has since been removed to London; and the domestics hays commenced packing the dining-room furniture.—Brighton Gazette. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 12, 1847.

Robberies of carts leaving Manchester for the country, aft« r dusk, have of late been numerous; informatio n o f a dozen or more, to the amount altogether of upwat of 501 in value, having reached the police since tb 16t h of January last. Most probably, they have just re' ceived a cheek in the apprehension of four men, wh o ' there is little reason to doubt, have been for some tine s engaged in this mode of plunder. Some time ain e C' Superintendent 'fey for received information which I, d ein 2 to believe that these robberies were committed by ine e named J in , s Hackett, John Dowd, and James Ryan, 4 '7 that a mail named Thomas Cain, living in Little Irelatlet was in the ha it of carrying their stolen goods for the ° with a t.or-e and cart. In consequence of this infor ms ' lion, a ee,teli has been kept on the entrance into Val; - Ireland ; and on Friday night, Frederick Hollis, °ea, the c . reteblee tit the 1) division, who was in P lat a clothe., saw Cain, between seven and eight o'clock, ri l T his beree end cart, proceed along Oxford-road, throng Princess-street, Saint Ann's-square, by the Collegiate Church, throne!, Strangeways, and along the 1 3 1 New-rea I. The u tlicc r kept the cart in sight, at diAievered that there were two men lying a t the to of it, who occasionally raised their heads, as if t' e t reconnoitre. Hay ng proceeded to about 300 yards po d Ow Grove Inn, on the Bury New-road, the cart stoPP e d ; and one cf . them (who proves to be Hackett) jumped t ; of the teat lett alter lookoig round, said, " Go on a e further." They went on till they got opposite to tee site of the Z Gardens, when they stopped ega ie i At this spot the efficer passed them. It was dark, P c he could not observe their features very distinctly , t ) , fg he saw four perzons about the cart, and saw them 1' into it what appeared to be a square chest. bat w here they got. it he did not see. The cart was immediatell turned round, arid driven back towards Manchester; The officer sollovreil, and as the cart stopped for to°,:d three raieutee at the Grove Inn, he saw what aPPe'i,e to 1),. a tea elo.st in it. When it arrived opposite t",l Collegiate Church, Hackett jumped out o f the cart , a_h_ A itetnedietely afterwards. something having intercep t ; the Meet's view for a moment, the latter interce pt ; Ryan and Dowd, in company with Hackett, la ,i , reet, who followed the c ar t t o Little Ire'ae and li!tin . g the chest out, took it into the I , °" - e of Dowd's mother, at No. 25, Anvil-street. The o f6cP then went and reported what he had seen to Supef ie e ; tendent Taylor, who immediately proceeded to the P la ce with another o ffi cer, and finding the door fasteneut; forced it open. They found Hackett and a I r a . named Gill (a lodger, it appears) sitting by the 1 0 - anti in u back room a great quantity of ;0; emptied upon a bed cover and table cloth, and a L ot placed upon it. Hackett said he knew nothing ar m it. Gill immidiat, ly said he would not get himself ' e ht trouble for that; llackett, Ryan, and Dowd had broug _ the tea there. On searching further, a grocers .1131e2 used for opening casks, & c., was found on the preraler: Gil! said that Hackett had carried the chest out of . ti:° house. Gill, Haekett, and Dowd's mother were in . l taken into custody. Cain was shortly afterwards ell; her.ded ; he said he had not been on the Barr ie -I, Bd ia night. Dued was apprehended about one , Rigby-street, Sal!otd, and Ryan the house of his father, in Hayes str ee t , aot They a. were taken before Mr. Tra ff ord, at the New Bailey, Saturdahr, d , remanded till ,ntlay. In the meantime inforrnaP e '' had been received that two chests of tea, o f the value of 61, had been stolen from a cart belonging to bit' John Howurth, carrier between Manchester and 801 l hour after, at on the night when the above occurred. It appear s that the tea was sent from the house of Messrs. Labreft New Br .wn street, and delivered to Mr. Howarth; at the ‘Vheat Sheaf, Fennel-street. A carter rimmed Walker Gregory was dispatched about half-past si% with the tea to Bury. He called at the machine in Strangeways, and the tea was then safe in the col; 13y the time he had got to Prestwich, Mr. H"wa rt i overtook him, and, looking into the cart, immediate l y missed the chests of tea. It appears that the "l ea d is very diminutive in stature, and was comp doub t his horse all the way, circumstances which n e es, whom greatly favoured the operations of the parties was the tea was abstracted. The weight of the teantity found to correspond exactly with that of the q ui : ligo . aled to stolen from the cart, and the empty chests were " r d a y vered by the police in the river Mecilock, on Sal tu l iee e morning, about one hundred yards from the house w the the tea was found. On Monday morning, wh en Gill case came on again before Mr. Trafford, the loan ft'' e r was admitted as evidence against the others; and st the above facts had been stated, the four male prison e sti were committed for trial at the sessions, and the w o°l was discharged.—Manchester Guardian.
