Mr. Wilson closed his season in the Music Hall, Store-street, on Monday, when he was honoured with a numerous and brilliant assemblage, whose atten tion he well repaid by the admirable manner in which he gave all his songs. He was in splendid voice—we never heard him in better—and the programme was made up altogether of gems, and could not fail to give universal delight. It inciuded several songs that have been great hits during the present season ; tor ex • ample—" The Stuarts of Appin," Burns's beautiful song of " Go, fetch to ,me a pint of wine, " The Skylark," "Bonnie Bessy Lee," and others. Wilson sang also— " The Soldier's Dream," with the beautiful and appro priate music composed for it by Attwood, and another lyric by Campbell, "Lord Daughter," which we heard for the first time, and hesitate not to say, that it must become cue of Wilson's greatest songs. He dis played in it to great advantage his dramatic and decla matory powers, and the song produced a thrilling effect on the audience. It would be diffic.lt to conceive any thing more beautiful than his delivery of the lines— " The waters wild went o'er his child, And he was left lamenting." The programme included, besides many old favourites, " Scots wha hae wi' Wallace bled," " The land o' the Leal," &c. At the conclusion Mr. Wilson was hailed with loud and long applause ; and before retiring he begged to express to his audience the gratification he telt for their continuing to rally round him in such numbers after his having given his ent.trtainments for seven seasons. He said he hoped to take his stand again in Store-stnnt about Christmas, when he would present some novelties from the old stores of poetry and music which he was now busily preparing. During his vacation, we believe Wil,on intends visiting Belgium, And some parts of Germany, where no doubt his enter tainments will afford delight to many of his countrymen who have taken up their abode " far free home," and who will be wafted back to their native hi'ls and streams through the magic of Wilson's minstrel's strains. SALE OF THE REPRE S ENTATION OF A. COUNTY. Mr. Grantley Berkeley has ju,t issued a most extra ordinary document, addressed to the electors of West Gloucestershire. It contains a proposition, said to have been made by the friends of Earl Fitzhardinge, for the sale of the representation of the western division. Mr. Grantley Berkeley says in the course of his address— On the 24th of June, 1947, I receised the following proposal on the part of the Lord-Lieutenant of the county, as I am informed, through the combined instru mentality of Colonel Kingscote, Messrs. Visger, Josiah Bunt, Nicholson, and Kim. ton. I believe it to be the handwriting of the latter, and if not his handwriting, at all events Mr. Kington in conjunction with Lord Fitz• hardinge drew it up, and caused it to be presented to me. It is needless for me to state to you that my reply to this monstrous document was, that I indignantly rejected it with all the disdain it deserved. The original document is still in my possession." The following is a copy of this precious proposition:— I. Lord Fitzhardinge to deposit in the hands of two trustees, one to be named by himself and one by Mr. Grantley Berkeley, the sum of 1 2001, together with Mr Grantley Berkeley's deed of assignment of part of his annuity to Earl Fitzhardinge. "2. Mr. Grantley Berkeley to publish an address to the electors of West Gloucestershire, distinctly renounc ing all intention to appear as a candidate, or to sit it' elected for We st Gloucestershire at the ensuing election. "3. Trustees to pay over, on the publication of such address in the two Gloucester papers, and in the Bristol Mercury and Gazette, the said sum of 1,2001. in the fol lowing proportions—viz., 2001. to Mr. Grantley Berke ley, and 1,000/. to Mr. Henry Berkeley, in payment of Leveux's judgment. "4. Mr. Grantley Berkley undertakes to do nothing prejudicial to the return of Mr. Grenville Berkeley, or so affect his seat when returned, and to discountenance Dll such acts in his friends, and Mr. Henry Berkeley undertakes to preserve strict neutrality, conditional upon which the aforesaid deed is to be delivered to Mr. Grantley Berkeley at the termination of Mr. Grenville Berkeley's election, but upon either party failing in their said several undertakings, the deeds to be returned to Lord Fitzhardinge."

VAUXHALL GARDENS.—A grand gala al fresco and fete champetre, took plaee on Monday, at the Royal Gardens, Vauxhall, in aid of the building fund fur the Butchers' Charitable Institution. The fete was a bril liant one ; all that ingenuity could design, or capital ac complish, had been effected by alessrs. We'd , ll and Brown, the lessees of the gardens. in conjunction with Mr. Ness, the Secretary, Mr. J. Purssey, and the com mittee of management for the gratification of visitors. CREMOENE GARDENS.—There was an ascent made on Monday evening fr o m these popular gardens in the g reat Nassau ballo',n by the veteran Charles Green, accompanied by several friends. The other entertain ments at the gardens possessed the usual attractions. THE BRITISH MUSEUM.—Mr. J. Payne Collier has been nominated secretary to the commission fur inquiring into the management of the British Museum. Mr. Cul• liar has devoted many ye,irs to literature, especially to that of the olden time; but, beiii.les being deep in " black letter" lore, he has those habits of application to business which peculiarly fit him for his new office. MEDAL Or VISCOUNT HARDINQE.—An admirable likeness of the gallant ilardinge appears upon a medal lately executed by Mr. G. G. Adams, in honour of the victories achieved under his Lordship's auspices, and in iais inspiring presence on the banks of the s et ki. N o man who ever saw the countenance of the veteran hero of Albuera, in which the lines so clearly marked denote at once invincible firmness as well as native gen tleness and genial courtesy, could for a moment doubt that the true representation of it, so far as unbreathing brans or marble could convey it, was now before him. On the obverse there are two allegorical figures—one of Minerva, and another of an a rmed warrior presenting to her, the wise divinity of war, the patr oness of war " tu r"" Peace," a lowered sword and an up r aised ranch of olive. The one had had its lurid flash ; the .other miggeited the Aim man co I d hues of Hupe, which would ad orn the pictures in the train of the results of a lengthened p ea ` of symbolism in metal of Ea p e It is a sum canvass-4,:i7m,,Ls.ndsp.er's moral lessons on painted .• '' and " Peace."

PROROGATION OF PARLIAMENT.—It was on Monday positively stated, about the Houses and the Gus ernment offices, that now the prorogation of Parliament is not likely to take place until the end of this month, or the ..first week in August. Sir Thomas Cartwright, her Majesty's Envoy -traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary at Stock holm, is shortly expected to arrive in this country on l e , %v e of absence, and the necessary directi , uas have bean 'en by the rgv_asury to the officers of the revenue at t h e packet Nita In. communication with the cont i nent, in 01 'der that the i'espect usually shown to Minist ers o f Sir T.

Nineteen persons were under the age of 16. _ of way. The CHIEF BARON said if the evidence was irrelevant he could not allow the public time to be wasted because Sir Frederick Thesiger was not there to make a speech. If at the time the defendant gave the plaintiff into cus tody he had reason to believe that he was going to do further mischief, he thought he was right in giving biro in charge, bat he seemed to have waited till the plaintiff did something to justify his doing so. It would have been far better if he had said to the police—"prevent anything being done," but he waited until he struck a blow, and then gave him into custody. Was that the case ? The AIrrORNEY- GENERAL said he had some difficulties to deal with. He had a great number of witnesses to show the right of way. The CHIEF BARON said they were not there to try the right of way. The question was, whether the plaintiff, at the time, considered that he had a right of way ; but they had better proceed with the evidence. John Hedgeland, formerly in the service of Messrs. Brown, said he had been twenty-six years in their ser vice, and proved the constant use of the passage, and that the north door now closed by the defendant, was the one always opened. Thomas Riley, also formerly in the employ of Messrs. Brown, said he had never heard of any interruption to any one who had a right to use the court. James Mitchell said he was in the service of the East India Company in 1785, add his employment generally ceased about two o'clock in the afternoon. He was em ployed, after that hour, as a packer, by Messrs. Brown, of Cheapside, and corroborated the last witness. Mr. James Sparks, formerly partner in the firm of Sparks and Co., Cheapside, proved the use of the court by his firm uninterruptedly for many years. The CHIEF BARON here suggested whether it would not be more advisable for the parties to come to some arrangement; but, after some discussion, the case pro ceeded. Mr. Henry Gage, merchant, of 155, Cheapside, cor roborated the evidence of the preceding witnesses with regard to the right of way. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he was unwilling to waste time; he would therefore be glad to know the opinion of the Learned Judge. The CHIEF BARON said he was of opinion that at least the plaintiff had an apparent right. Mr. MARTIN said there was no doubt of it. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he should not call any more witnesses. The CHIEF BARON wished to know what Mr. Martin intended to prove. Mr. MARTIN said he should call for a lease from the Grocers' Company, showing that the defendant had a right to three feet, and that he maintained that right up to the present time. The CHIEF BARON said it appeared to him that the defendant had a right to call in the police to interfere to prevent a breach of the peace, or what looked like a breach of the peace ; but on looking at the plea, it appeared that there was no actual breach of the peace, for knocking off a lock with a sledge hammer was not a breach of the peace. But if a policeman had been called to prevent its being done, and the plaintiff had done it at his personal risk, it would have been another matter ; or if the defendant had said he should not knock down the door unless he knocked down him, and then called to the police to interfere, but instead of doing this he stood by and saw the act done before he gave the plaintiff in charge. Mr. MARTIN said he should call evidence. The CHIEF BARON—In my opinion the case has come to a conclusion. The grand jury having been sworn, were briefly ad dressed by the Judge, and then rain d. Mary Lane, round guilty at the last session of a street robbery, was called up this morning fur judgment. The Learned JUDGE said the circumstances of her ease were of peculiar aggravation. She met the presecu tor in the street, told him a long tale of distress, and then managed to rob him; while there could be no doubt but she was associated with two men who were seen lurking close to where she was both that and the follow ing night. The sentence of the Ceurt was, that she be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for six months. Henry Sullivan was brought up to receive sentence for having knocked a man down in the Broad Sanctuary, Westminster, when The ASSISTANT-JUDGE said, in this case fearful per jury had been committed. A witness for the defence swore, at the last session, that he had never seen the prisoner in his life before the night named in the indictment, when it was since fici.ertatned that they had both resided together, for upw,. .s of two months, in a low public-house in Westminster. The probability was that the assault had been committed with the intention of robbing, and he should therefore sentence the prisoner to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. George Lovesay, a chimney sweeper, was next placed at the bar, to receive judgment upon a conviction for fraudulently obtaining money. The Learned JUDGE said this case was also marked by most disgraceful perjury. The facts were extraor dinary, for the prisoner called a witness for the defence who, in his anxiety to clear the prisoner, criminated himself by saying he was the real party who had ob tained the money. He should sentence the prisoner to twelve months' imprisonment, with hard labour. Thomas IV illiams, who was convicted at the last ses sions of stealing a box, containing a quantity of wearing apparel and other property belonging to the Great W estern Railway Company, was brought up for judg ment this day. It will be recollected that the Judge deferred sentenoe upon the representations of Collard, the superintendent of the police, that suspicion existed against some of the men in the company's employment, owing to the fact of a man dressed as a railway porter having called to see the prisoner while in prison on a former charge. The case was accordingly adjourned to see if the prisoner would afford any assistance in the discovery of those parties. Mr. WYLD, on the part of the Great Western Com ' pany, said he was instructed to state that the prisoner had done nothing in furtherance of the ends of justice, but rather the reverse. The prisoner was then sentenced to four months' im prisonment. SURREY SESSIONS. (Before THOMAS PUCKLE, Esq., and a Bench of Magistrates.) John Smith, 19, was indicted for stealing a coat, the property of James Dollar. The prosecutor in this case is a tradesman, residing in the New-cut, Lambeth, and on the evening of the 10th ultimo he left a great coat lying in a gig at his door, and while he was absent a few minutes, the prisoner was seen to steal it, and run away. lie was, however, pur sued, and taken into custody. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and as he had been before "in trouble," The CHAIRDIA.N sentenced him to be imprisoned in the H. use of Correction for six months. William Avow, 14, was convicted of stealing four shillings, the property of William Ch:.plin. On Friday last the wife of the prosecutor found the prisoner under the counter in the shop, with the till open. She en deavoured to lock him in. but he forced his way out, and was captured by a police-constable, when one shil ling was found in his pocket. The other three shil lings were discovered on the floor where the prisoner was fourd. After some discussion, the further hearing of the case was adjourned till Tuesday. Tuesday, July 6. On the sitting of the Court this morning, Mr. Phipson (in the absence of Mr. Martin) intimated that he and his Learned Friend had gone carefully through the evi dence, and although they were prepared to admit that the plaintiff had reason to believe that he was enti tled to an uninterrupted right of way, he was in a posi tion to show that Mr. Knight's fattier, forty or fifty years ago, allowed the passage from three to six feet — its present width—and that therefore, though he had allowed his right to fall somewhat into abeyance, he was entitled to rail off for his private use three feet of the passage. He was in a position to explain the whole question of the right of way claimed by the defendant it they were upon that issue, and that the plaintiff had no reasonable claim to the free and uninterrupted right of the passage. The CHIEF BARON inquired if the parties were willing to take a suggestion from him as to what ought to be done ? Mr. PHIPSON expressed his willingness, but he wished before his Lordship did so to state that he could prove that the act of the plaintiff amounted to a breach of the peace. He could also prove that the business of Messrs. Knight had been stopped and incommoded by the con duct of the plaintiff, and that, although the act of the plaintiff might not amount to a breach of the peace on Salisbury-plain. that it did in this particular case. The CHIEF BARON repeated what he said yesterday, that ho did not think a breach of the peace had been committed. He did not think the jury would be of opinion that a breach of the peace was committed. Mr. MARTIN wished to read a letter from the plaintiff to the defendant, staing that he would, at any time, allow him to have the use of the key. The CHIEF BARON interposed. He said he supposed all that the plaintiff wanted was a verdict of a sufficient amount to carry costs. If this were assented to, the action brou g ht by Clarke ou g ht also to be stopped on the payment of the costs by the defendant. Mr. MARTIN expressed his willingness to adopt the suggestion of the Learned Judge. The CHIEF BARON repeated that a man had no right to use force to obtain admission into a heraditament of his own ; but the defendant in this case had no right to send a man to prison who was so well known as the plaintiff. A man was not always to be governed by the mere law of the case. If every man in this city had to be restrained by the law, he would be a bad citizen, and the city would not be worth living in. A great deal had to be done in this country with which the law had nothing to do, and which had to be left to the religious and good feeling of the country. The ATTORNEY- GENERAL said some compensation ought to be given to the plaintiff for the injury which he had sustained by being given into custody. A respect able citizen should not wantonly be deprived of his liberty. Mr. MARTIN replied that none of his neighbours would think worse of him from what bad occurred. The A TTO RNEY-GENERAL inquired how the Learned Counsel would like to be taken into custody, and con veyed through the streets in charge to the police-station? Mr. MARTIN said he should not object if he received 40s. compensation. The A TTORN EY- GENERAL—W hat during the time the courts are sitting, and special jury cases are being tried?—(Laughter). Mr. MARTIN — N o, no. You must recollect this took place between five and six o'clock in the evening. A verdict was then entered for the plaintiff for 40, by consent. The defendant will therefore have to defray the whole of the costs, which will amount to a consider. able sum. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and he was sen• tented to six months' imprisonment, and to be once pri , irately whipped. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW .STREET. • Henry Johnson, the young man who was remanded from Friday last on a charge of forging a certificate 01 the Court of Examiners of uie Apothecaries' Company, was again brought before Mr. Henry. Mr. Mullens appeared as solicitor for the Apothe caries' Company, and Mr. Clarkson defended the pri , Mr. Muliens, having put in two letters which had been received by Mr. Salt from a person signing himself "J. Hudson, " vkhorn he supposed to be the prisoner, said that since he had entered the court that morning be bad received a communication respecting the circumstances under which the original certificate had fallen into the pri soner's hands, but he did not wish to place those circum stances before the court until he should first consult the company. Ii he should decide upon giving any evidence on that point at the trial, he should supply Mr. Clarkson with a copy beforehand. The prisoner was then committed for trial, being ad mitted to bail in two sureties of 1001. each, with the understanding that his father would be admitted as one of them. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. James Hughes, a well-known thief, was charged by Miss Mary Waters, of 62, Frith-street, Soho, with pick ing her pocket of a purse, containing one sovereign, three shillings and sixpence, and a silver rupee. The prosecutrix stated, that on the previous afternoon, between three and four o'clock, she was walkicg along Wells street, Oxford-street, when she felt some person touch her dress behind. She looked round, and saw the prisoner and two otner men close by her. Directly the prisoner saw that he was observed he ran away, followed by his companions. Witness then felt in her pocket, and missed her purse. She called out " Stop thief," and shortly after she saw the prisoner in custody. The purse produced, containing the amouat named in the charge, was her property. Joseph Church, a fireman, residing at No. 7, Adam and Eve-court, said that on Monday afternoon he was standing near the engine-station in Wells-street, when he heard the cry of " Stop thief." He looked round, and saw the prisoner running. Witness pursued him, and overtook him in Adam and Eve-court. He col.ared him, and found the purse in his right hand. The pri soner begged witnt ss to let him go. He refused to do so, and took him into Wells-street, where he gave him into the custody of a constable. In answer to the charge, the prisoner said he wa standing at the corner of Adam and Eve-court, when h.- saw a person running down the court, and throw away the purse. He picked it up , and as the lad y said it was hez s, he gave it up to her. He denied all knowledge of the robbery. Mr. BINGHAM said he would give him an opportunity of making a jury believe that tale, by committing him to take his trial at the Middlesex sessions. INSOLVENT DEBTOR' COURT, July 6.

The insolvent had awarded were lOU, and the t b tit e t e t n th t e ax d e a d l paid 1001., and the q uestion w as , whether the money costs had been paid on account of the damages or the tints? The insolvent alleged that the payment was made for the damages, and, on the other side, it was declared that it was given for the costs. The question was a material one in respect to the opposition. It was stated that the attorney had applied the money to the payment of the costs, and that the young woman had a good ground of opposition. Mr. CooKE, for the young woman, prayed a judgment for the damages awarded in the action for breach of promise of marriage, and further complained that several persons had been preferred to the party, who had great cause of complaint against the insolvent. Mr. Nicri oLs , for the insolvent, contended that the payment of 1001. was for the damages in the action, and therefore no remand could be given. He further con tended that the insolvent had accounted for his property, and that a person who had received 1001. had no cause to complain of payments to others. Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS was of opinion that the young woman was entitled to ask the Court for a judgment ; and subsequently remanded the insolvent for 53 - ma the vesting order. ,ix mouths fro) CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) Jesse Butcher, an agricultural labourer, aged 24, was charged with killing one s heep, the property of John Ginges, with intent of stealing the carcase. John Bagshaw, police-constable 237 S, about three o'clock on the 26th June last, found the sheep lying dead, maimed and cut in different ways, and near it the prisoner asleep in the ditch. His hands were bloody, a bloody knife was found underneath his thigh, and other marks that appeared conclusive against him. The prisoner was found Guilty, and sentenced to seven years' transportation. John Patie, aged nineteen, was carried into the dock in a fainting fit, which, save for a short interval, when he pleaded Not Guilty to the different indictments, con tinued throughout the time he was in court. The first indictment on which the prisoner was tried was for stealing a watch, value 31., from his master , Jo hn Had field, High Hoib orn . It appeared that the prisoner, being in the service of the prosecutor about the Bth of June last, was sent into the bed-room where the watch was hanging. The watch was missed a short time after, and found by the police man, pledged with David Jones, a pawnbroker. Tne prisoner, though he now pleaded not guilty to the indictment, confessed before Alderman Johnson to having stolen, but not pledged, the watch. lie was found Guilty. A previous conviction for felony was also produced against him, and there remained two other indictments, one charging him with stealing a cash-box and two half sovereigns from his master, Thomas Somiez; and the other with stealing a aiagraph, value 61., the property of Edward J. Rogers. The prisoner was sentenced 'o seven years' transpor tation, and was then carried out of the dock insensible. - MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

This was an acti,,n to recover compensation in da• mages for false imprilournent. The declaration stated thAt the defendant a3saulted the plaintiff, and seized and laid hold of him, and caused him to be taken through divers public streets to a police-station, where he was detained a considerable time, and then liberated on bail ; that he was taken before a magistrate nest morning, when the charge made against him by the defendant was dismissed. It stated further, ,hat his feelings were in consequence greatly hurt, and his business interrupted. The defendant pleaded Not Guilty, and that the plaintiff broke and entered premises which bQlonged to him, and that he in consequence was iustified in the course he had adopted. The Attorney-General, Mr. Knowles, Q.C., and Mr. Miller were for the plaintiff; and Mr. Martin, Q.C., and Mr. Phipson were for the defendant. The ATToRNEY-GENERAL stated the case, on the part of the plaintiff, to the jury. He said he looked upon this case against the defendant, which was an action for false imprisonment, as one of a very serious character; it was a case which the plaintiff wai compelled to bring into Court, but he (the Attorney-General) confessed that he should have been far better satisfied if the defendant, instead of allowing the plaintiff to proceed as he had been compelled to do, if he had stated that he had re gretted his conduct, and had made aR ample apology for it. He (the Attorney-General) thought that he ought to have done so, and he was sure that the jury, when he had stated the case to them, would be of the same opinion. Mr.tMcGregor was a gentleman carrying on a very large business as a wholesale woollen-warehouse man, at 150, Cheapside. He had carried on busi ness for several years, and was a gentleman very much respected. The defendant, Mr. Knight, carried on likewise a very large business, in partnership with another gentleman, as ironmongers in Foster-lane, Cheapside. Ho believed he succeeded his father in that business, and he now carried on a business of great respectability ; but, unfortnnately, he had given way to his temper with respect to what he supposed he had a right to, and had dune that which, on reflection, be certainly could not fail to regret. The premises occupied by Mr.McGregor opened behind into a place formerlyealled Sun-court, but now known as Black Lion -court, which opened into Foster-lane. The defendant, Mr. Knight, and his partner, occupied premises opening into the court, as also did other parties.—(The Learned Counsel here explained the model of the premises, and handed in plans to the Court.) The court, as he had said, opened into Foster-lane. It would be necessary to state the respective rights of the parties, and to explain how Mr. M‘Gregor felt it his duty to act when he found the defendant disputing his right of way. As far back as living memory could go, this passage or court had been used by the occupiers of these premises without interruption for a considerable number of years. The court was enclosed at the end with large doors—the door on the right band being only fastened by a large clasp—that on the left being the door through which access to the court was obtained, and upon the door-post on the left hand side there were bells with the names of the different occupiers of tke premises painted upon them, in order that when the doors were closed for the night, the residents might be communicated with ; and no one had ever doubted the rights of the parties to have at all times egress and ingress through the court into Foster-lane. Some time ago certain repairs were made and new doors were put up. The lower part was boarded and the rest paved, for the convenience of the occupiers, and the expense was divided between Messrs. Brown, the then occupier of the premises now held by Messrs. Clarke, fur riers, by the plaintiff, and Messrs. Knight, who occupied the other side, and who paid one-fourth of the outlay. Messrs. Knight being nearer the doors than any of the other parties, it was arranged, for their general convenience, that they should keep the key of the door which was closed, and which, it was right to mention, was very rarely used ; they had, however, keys of both the openings, which were in the nature of folding doors. This state of things had continued for some time, when Messrs. Knight began to entertain a notion, from some matter which he could not undertake to explain, but which could not be material to the case, that one half of this passage! belonged exclusively to them, and they erected a wooden partition so as to render the passage perfectly useless to the plaintiff, as he could not get his large bales of goods through the confined pace which remained. Before this took place a very respectable business, which had been carried on for several years by Messrs. Brown, was discontinued, and another not so pleasant, but equally respectable, was commenced on the premises by Messrs. Clarke, who employed a number of persons, and as many had occasion to go backwards for the purpose of seeking work, more inconvenience was caused to the other resi dents than during the occupancy of Messrs. Brown. The defendant applied to the plaintiff to assist him in putting a stop to this increased use of the passage by Messrs. Clarke, but he declined, as he considered that Messrs. Clarke had the same claim to an uninterrupted right of way as Messrs. Brown, and he declined to inter fere. On this they would be surprised to bear that the defendant refused to let the plaintiff have the keys of the door for the purpose of bringing up his goods. On the 21st of August the plaintiff wanted to get some bales up to his warehouse; he sent to the defendant for the keys, but as he refused to let him have them, he intimated that if he adhered to his resolution he should resort to force to obtain egress for his goods. The defendant had erected a partition which divided the court in two, but was so arranged that it could slide backwards and forwards, and Mr. McGregor on that oc casion asserted his right in person, with the aid of his servants, and pushed the partition against the wall. On the 24th of the same month he found that the partition had been restored, and that the door on the left had been fastened with a padlock, and as the defendant refused to remove it, the plaintiff knocked it off with a hammer. Although the plaintiff was well known in the City, although he carried on business for 13 or 14 years, although he was a man of the greatest respectability, Mr. Knight servantsaet iattended n d e f d or b p y a a r a l ° l d i a i r e g en :th a e ß r r c o i ple p , u t b o li public streets, e station house reets, urga,dhndofthpheeaod him and his in Bow-lane, where he charged him with wilfully destroying his prcperty, and with baying as saulted him. The Learned Counsel then read the charge sheet, which described the plaintiff as a merchant, carrying on business at 150, Cheapside, as being 5 feet I inches in height, with light hair, and grey eyes.—(A laugh.) All this seemed to be very ludicrous, but it was a very serious and important matter to the plaintiff, and a gentleman who exposed another to such treatment should know what he was about, and the consequences which would result from his conduct. He sent for a friend, who put in bail, and he was liberated, but he went on the :ollowing day, as he was bound to do, before the Lord Mayer And Alderman Wilson, to answer any charge which might be brought against him. They heard everything that the parties had to say, and in dismissing the case, those magistrates, in strong language, expressed their opinion of the course which a neighbour, and a fellow citizen, had taken against another. Now, the plaintiff complained that he had been taken to the station !louse, away from his business and friends, leav ingwhich led to hi s b e i ng t a a t k hb e er n e pa i ce n ha e t o eo, t e i ot s rh t eoidf yp, t t. h eha e eciiree,e c cause which his neighb ours t o s p ecu l ate as to c th h e a r r e ged wa with o co b m re m a i e t h tin o g f the violence of Mr. Knight, who caused persons to collect about the court, occasioned it. The plaintiff, however, shut the door to prevent a greater crowd from gathering, and to obviate any disturbance. the second plea of the defendant was that the plaintiff committed a wilful damage of his property, but his Lordship would tell them that if a man possessed a right of way he was perfectly justified iu knocking down any obstruction to it; in fact, that to do so was, in reality, trying his right, and, therefore, it was ridiculous to sup pose that that plea could have any foundation. The third plea was, that the defendant acted under the Police Act, that he was demolishing palings, and that the policeman took him into custody; but that plea was equally untenable. He asked, therefore, afier the plaintiff had been in undisputed possession of the right of way for fourteen or fifteen years, and was treated thus for simply asserting that right, if he was not entitled to come forward, and say to the defendant, " You have acted without advice; if you do not make an apology, I will carry my case into a court of justice and sue for damages for the injury you have done me." He did not ask for extravagant damages, but whatever sum they might award he would derive no benefit, as it was his intention to pre sent it to some charitable institution; he simply sought to vindicate his character, which was irreproachable. If Mr. Knight had made an apology for what he bad done he was sure the case would have extended no further, but when he had not done so he was sure they would agree with him, that it was due to himself and his friends that the plaintiff should seek a verdict at their hands. Unfortunately, however, this trial would not be the last of the matter, as the question of right of way would still have to be tried; he was sure also that they would agree with him that the defendant had been guilty of the most improper conduct, and that the plain tiff was perfectly justified in the course he had pursued. The following witnesses were then called : Richard Clarke, the plaintiff's servant, was examined by Mr. Knowles, and proved the occurrence on the days in question, and the use of the passage by the plaintiff, and the attendance before the magistrate and dismissal of the case. William S. Mason also corroborated the facts of the case as proved by the last witness. William Murrils, police-constable 447, said he was called into the premises on Friday, the 21st, by Mr. Knight. He also proved the facts of the case, and the taking the plaintiff into custody by himself and his bro ther policeman. Mr. Goodman, chief clerk at the Mansion-house, said he recollected the plaintiff being brought before Alder man Wilson and Alderman Johnson, on the 25th of August. Solicitors appeared for the parties, but as the proved the matter was considered by the magistrates one for the c onsideration of the higher courts, the defendants were the north discharged without the witnesses being sworn. adduced his and Nl p r r . e ß de r c o e w s predecessors rsin merchantbusi business andess since a occupation of the premises in Cheapside by himself and uninterrupted use of the passage door ettia wa s the one always open. already in question, and that that he wfts entitled q and the constant Mr. Meanie The if the right of way that x 0 10 Il sa u id b , e it t w rie a d s einleathrifsrocamset.he evidence T e a si n g e e d r , that he le t h e a s t i simply held shouldhe dt the briefprpre- WORSHIP-STREET. Two ill-looking fellows, and another, not in custody, described as haymakers, were charged with the follow ing, and perhaps unprecedented assault : A man, named Wilson, stated that himself and wife had been engaged the whole of Monday at the farm of A gentleman maned Craven, at Stamford-hill, and as a.ual with haymakers, when there is not a sufficient number of sheds fur them to retire to rest in for the night, he (witness) and his wife mounted one of the ha, ricks for that purpose. During the night, however, he was alarmed with violent screams proceeding from hi, wife, and he perceived three men, with whom he had oeen working during the previous day, endeavouring to take improper liberties with her. He remonstrated with them, but the whole of them at once attacked him. One of them succeeded in making his escape ; two, however, were taken into custody by the police, who had beon attracted to the spot by the alarm m (21e. The prisoners made a rambling defence, and Mr. ARNOLD, who said that a more heartless and cruel outs age had scarcely come under his notice, ordered the prisoners to be broug it up again m a few days.

STATUE OF FREDERICK THE GREAT.—By letters from Breslau we learn that the inauguration of the statue of Frederick the Great took place in that city on the 27th ult., in presence of the King and the Prince of Prussia. Among those who assisted at the ceremony was an old veteran, 109 years of age, who had served in the armies of the great King. Ho was dressed in the Prussian uniform of the time of the seven years' war, in which struggle he took part. At four o'clock in the afternoon his Majesty and the Prince quitted Breslau by the railway for Berlin. POTSLWI, JUNE 28.—His Majesty the sing has just returned from JOINT-STOCK E&NKS.
