This Company is established with a view to afford the pub as increased facilities in the conveyance of mails, passengers, speedo, and merchandise between England, via Harwich, and the ports of Rotterdam, Hamburg, Antwerp, A. traffic arrangement for a term of years has been 'entered into with the Eastern Counties Railway Company on advan tageous terms, and the birectors have secured the co-opera tion of the authorities of the Dutch-Rhenish Railway Cora l/11V, and the other inland navigation and railway establish- Lents in Holland and Germany, all of whom are so convinced •f the advantages to be derived from this line of communica tion, as the most desirable for passenger traffic, and the speedy Conveyance of merchandise and perishable goods, that they are anxious to promote the views of this Company to the fullest possible extent. The town of Harwich is 68 miles from London by railway, and, its port,is the most convenient for direct communication between London and all the great seaports in Holland and Belgium, and thence to the northern and central parts of the continent of Europe. Passengers proceeding to India via Trieste, by Harwich, Rotterdam, and the Dutch-Rhenish Railway, will effect a saving of 48 hours, as compared with the route via Marseilles; the line from Rotterdam to Trieste being on the eve of com. pletion without a break. 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 mouth of the River Thames are avoided, whereby a saving of time is effected to Hamburgh, Rotterdam, and Antwerp of from 10 to 11 hours ;'whilst the route to Oberhausen and thence to the northern parts of Europe is four hours and a quarter less by Harwich and Rotterdam than that by Dover and Ostend, as per tabular statement, and thus the former must become the direct route of postal communication.

I then took up the lamp, and went over the coals to the face. Lodge followed me over. I put the lamp up to the roof and acid, " Now, rocit goo thern ie no gas." He said, "Yes, I see there is none." I then went and sat down along with Lodge. He said he was satisfied there was no gas, but added that in case anything was to happen what would be the c , nsequence ? I replied, " That very likely I should be wrong for not making him work with lamps." He said if anything were to happen he should make a bother. I replied, "As you say so, I will make you work with lamps." He said, "You won't, I will leave the place first ;" and besidts he sail, " What occasion is there to work with lamps?" Lodge said the batteries were a long way off. I sail we hal gone considerably further very often without brat tices in levels and slits, and I had never seen any gas. The brattices were from 20 to 30 yards from the face, as near as I can judge. According to rule 23, they ought not to have been more than 12 feet from the facing. I never saw occasion for having brattices at all in the slips or levels, so far as re gards any danger from gas. Tie coal does not make much gas on the end, and never has done. In the boards we keep up to rule 23. We have driven levels and slits for more than 40 yards without any brattice. I believe it is cust unary in all the pits in the district not to brattice the slits and levels according to rule 23. . _ By Mr. Morton—lt was in the top level, on the north side, where I was - hiking with Lodge. There was no other person present except Lodge's hurrier. Lodge was working with candle. What is the greatest distance you have ever driven without brattices ?—ln sliti, 42 or 43 yards; in Lodge's pace they were from 20 to 30 yards from the face of the level. On that day we had no working place in the pit where the brattices were further from the facings, nor any so far as in Lodge's. I had seen all the working places in the pit on the day prior to the exp'osion. Has any other person besides Lodge ever said anything to you about the brattices being so far be hind ?—Never, plenty have grumbled about their being so near. Have you ever bad any consultation with Mr. Coe about brattices ?—I have sometime told him we were short of brattices, or sheetings. He always told me it I saw anything wanting to let him know. Mr. Coe has repriniandea me for allowing the brat- tices to be so far from the face. That has been in the case of boardgates. He has also at times, said, n reference to the endings and levels, "You must get some brattices up here." But still it has never been our custom to comply with rule 23 in refer ence to brattices in the levels, ends, slits, never having seen any occasion for it, because there was no gas. Who are the persons who saw no such necessity ? —Myself, William Beavers, and William Corbidgc. We have consulted together at different times about the brattices not having been kept up in the ends and levels according to rule 23. - - Has Mr. Coe sanctioned the breach of rule in these respects I—l am not aware be has been strict with us about the brattices in the slits or levels ; but he has been very strict about brattices in thi boardgates. The men working in the boards have cursed and sworn they would go out if we put boards up as ordered by Mr. Coe. What orders did Mr. Coe give as to brattices in the boards ?—He ordered ui to keep up with the rule 23. After the men found fault with having the brat- tices so near, did you put them up or keep them down I—Sometimes we have put them up and some times on persuasion kept them down, the men not being able to keep their candles in on account of the current. We had wood shaders to protect the candle., but they sweated away to the extent of five or six in the hour. On the day previous to the explosion there were no brattices in boardgates so much as 12 feet from the face. None of the stop pings or doors were wrong to my knowledge. We have not been in the habit of having more than one slip open near the face of the boardgates or levels. On the day previous to the explosion we had not had any greater fall from tha roof than usual. There had not been any great falls from the roof on that day, but there had been small falls from the roof, which is what is called a tender one and falls readily. I carefully examined th 9 gooves the day before the explosion with a safety lamp. They were quite clear of gas. It was on the evening of the 411 ty preceling the explosion I examine I hem. I being in the night shift, left the pit about three o'clock on the morning of the explosion. I did not sea gas in any place that morning—did not find a single p'ace from one end of the pit to the other where it would fire at my lamp. The flame of my lamp did not show fire at all. We had not one Davy lamp at work on that day in any part of the pit. It is very seldom we have had to use lamps, and when we have it has always been in the boards. I don't know that they have been required in any place in particular. The board gates, which go straight from the pit bottom, are considerably further up than the others. We have not had occasion to use lamps in those boardgates for six months at least, not to my knowledge. We have at times had occasion, when there has been a "feeder" or "blower," to use them in the second boardgate, on the north side of the pit. We have sometimes had " feeders" or " blowers" of gas. I don't know that we have had them anywhere but in the second boardgates. The feeders or blowers were very trifling ones. Have you always acquaintsl Mr. Coe with it, when you have seen blowers don't recollect that we have had any since Mr. Coe came to the pit, which is only about four months ago. Have you seen Mr. Coe measure the quantity of air in the pit h—Yes. With the anemometer ?—Yes. Where ?—ln the cupola (air shaft) boardgate, into which the whole ventilation of the pit is brought. Has rule 23 been observed in reference to the sectional area of the aircourses cannot speak to that ; I don't know what it is. Do you know if there are any airconrses or air crossings less than 30 square feet sectional area as required by rule 23?—Yes, there ate some less of both kinds. What is the size of the smallest I—We havo some not more than 4ft. square, because the roof is so bad t%at it crushes the packs down. The Coroner—l asked you last Monday if you could at all account for the explosion. After you have had a week's consideration I now repeat the question. Can you give me any accoturt of it ex cept what you gave last week h—l cannot ; unless, as I said last week, a trap-door may have been left open. We had boys to attend to the trap doors—one at every door, except those in the slits, which the burners open and shut themselves. come M to Mr. Morton. r —Has open of doors often doors at boardends, a n d as near ?—No ; I we have nine 250rr21. m 6insl a i d ts i (is as c an recollect Mr. v on, of Barnsl e y, co lli er y v iewer, said--I heard of the ex pl os i on at L un d h i l l s h or tly n after it occurred, and immediately proceeded to the pl. I ck in r t e h a n c ed h afternoon. ter e about l 20 found minutesthe n n before had just finished fastening the broken chain in the head gear, and busy transferring the ropes on the drum, one of them being fastened to the chair in the bottom. Seeing that I could be of some assistance I superintended with one or two others the altera tion of the ropes on the drum ; and not knowing what other means there were at the colliery, and no one to inform me at hand, and knowing also that we had a "crab" with the necessary for it to sarylen w g o th mb. of rope attached, I immediately gent 1 well Main Colliery, where lam employed. This " crab" could only be required in case of some un foreseen accident in altering the ropes of the pie. Every exertion was made, and the unoccupied drawing rope was put into operation by a • quart r before 3 o'clock. There was no unnecessary delay. I may just say that I am the manager at the Womb well Main Colliery. As soon as the rope was got into operation, Mr. Coe, along with tw ) of his own men, got into the tub and proceeded down the shaft, being drawn to the bank at intervals in con sequence of meeting in their descent with pieCes of timber hanging loose in the shaft, and which it was necessary to remove for their own safety. After being drawn - up three or four times they at last reached the bottom. Mr. Coe shortly retained to the bank, end asked Mr. Webster and myself to ac company him to the office to. examine the p'an ; which we did. Immediately afterwards, we a l l pro ceeded to the pit, an d t ogs her with W. Utley, un derground stew ar d. a t W om bwell M , in Colliery, proceeded to the b o tt om o f the pit. We had very great difficulty in ke e pi ng i ou r lights, th-sen the Davy lamps being a lt oge th er blownup, and we were compelled to make us e o f a common blast lamp in order to obtain a li g ht a t th e bottom. On getting out of the tub at the bottom, about eight or ten feet from the rails we had to scramble over a large amount of frag men t s , apparently of broken slidesland staves. We then went to what had been the lamp cavern, where we lit our dead lamps. We immediately proceeded along the south road. The first opening I came to, 15 or 16 yards from the shaft bottom, was a direct communication with the bottom of the upcast, in which Mr. Coe informed us there had been two doors, but not a vestige of them remained. The fire at the bottom of the up east Wag raging furinu9l3 , . 'Elie whole of the,arehes of the furnace were one mass of ruin, and the fire was shooting up between the stones. We could also see fite coming down the centre board-gate directly to the bottom of the upcast shaft. We saw the flames shooting acr iss, ( ffectually stopping us from proceeding further. We continued going to the rise, still wi , h the hope of getting round the fire, and found the coal on fire at the post of the next corner, but, so slight that it was afterwards put out. We got about one pillar higher than this to the rise, which would be about 70 yards to the rise from the horse-road. At thi s p o i n t M r . C oe left us, and went still further up, until he could proceed no further for watt of air. We then re turne 1 into the horse-r, ad, he leaving us at the second boardgate. We went di rec tl y i n t o th e horse-road, and he continued along to the south. He joined us in the horse-road about 100 yards from the shaft. We procee led up the south-road about 350 yards, and found three dead bodies. Going to the rise, up every boardgate we came to, until stopp( d for want of a.r, and th e gas fi re d i n the lamps, beyond which we considered it unsafe to proceed, we returned to the downcast shaft. We did not find any persons alive on the south si'le of 1 the pit. We then went on the north side. On the north horse-road, 10 or 12 yards from the bot tom, we saw a horse dead, which had apparently just come to the shaft bottom with a train of coals. I should say he was burnt. In front of him had been four or five tubs, on to the top of w hi c h h e h a d been blown by the explosion. Atter going four or five yards fur i her north we turned up the board into the stables, and found one horse dead at the en.: t! ante and another near it. The stables we found on fire, the fire being principally on the rise side of the stables, at the head, in ihe boy crib, and on the surrounding coal. We then went down the north horse-road, turning up the first boardgate to get to the other side of the fire. We found the stables on fire there also, and a largo body of smoke back ing along the end to the north, which rather led us to suppose there might be fire still further to the north. We could not however perceive any. We then returned to the north horse road, and pro- ceeded along it, having a current of air along with us. We found several dead bodies in this horse- road. We went up No. 2 boardgate until we again lost our air and could proceed no further. The want of air and firing of the lamps stopped us when we had got 40 or 50 yards up. Again returning to the north horse-road we proceeded along it, exa mining the stoppings as we went, and finding some of them not seriously injured we went up No. 3 boardgate about 40 or 50 yards, and had again to return in consequence of the want of air and firing of the gas in our lamps. We continued up the north horse-road until we reached within 40 yards of the facing, and at the end of the fourth board gate. We then found a body which, .1. think, was dreadfully burnt, but it was so black I could not tell positively. Some one of the patty—l think Mr. Coe—proceeded to a water level, which was being driven in the dip to the east, and where a man would be working at the time of the explonon. His body was found there, and brought into the horse-road. At this time Warhurst came to us from the shaft bottom, saying, if we did not at once return there would be no means of escape. I should say this would be about a quarter to 7 o'clock. We did not even then leave the No. 4 boardgate until we had examined every direction in which it was possible for any one to live. One of the party—l believe Mr. Coe—went up to the No. 4 boardgate. We in no case returned until the lamps fired. We also examined minutely three or four places which were being driven to the dip similar to the one I have previously spoken of, but did not find any body dead or living in them, those who had been working there having evidently escaped. We then returned on the north boardgate, counting the bodies as we passed, and found them to be ei g ht, the last of which we had not observed at all in g oin g north, and only discovered it, in returning, fro m m y foot touching the body. It was lying under a tub of coals. On getting near the ehatt we again went towards the south end of the stables, in which we found the fire raging so furiously that it was utterly impossible for us to go near it. The whole length of the stables, and evidently from that point to the centre boardgate—a length of upwards of —was in one white sh ee t o f flame. The lO s Q id y e a s rd o s f the coal, timber, and everything inflammable, were on fire. It was fearf u l t o con t e mplate the differ ence that had taken pl ace i n th e s t a t e of the fire be tweai the time of our going up the north boardgate and returning again. In the first instance_ we might have gone up to the fire and kicked it with meat within .wofh several we downcast ra eafs l Itee rd th s he o ett f tobe i our feet ; but, in th e secon d , we d urs t no t go It no t t . iht went eoen N fb V ioow e tfitioaimenih oewlff melting-furnace. si o tn n hge l e- ef t iehulrpownebahacois white eihtt ohe Before going aloeg the north horse-road we had or dered that the bodies of the three men found in the south horse-road should be brought to the shaft bottom as quickly as possible in order that they might be sent to bank. On arriving at the shaft bottom from the north horse-road we gave similar instructions with respect to the eight bodies found in that horse-road. The men proceeded to perform that duty. We did not leave the pit until I myself felt convinced beyond a doubt that there could not be by possibility any living person in the pit, ex cepting those who had deicended after the explo sion. We then came out of the pit. It was about half-past seven when we got out. We thereupon went to the office to consult with the owners of the colliery as to the best and most efficient means in that emergency. We had not left the pit many minutes before the whole of the men whom we had left down came out, declaring it utterly impossible for them to remain any longer. When we got into the office there were present Mr. R. C. Webster, of Hoyland, Mr. Joseph Cos (the underground steward), Mr. William Utley, of Wombwell Main Colliery, and Mr. John Hoyland, of Rawmarsh Colliery, Mr. Duckworth, of Wombwell Main Col liery, James Cookson, of Hoyland, Wm. Beever, John Warhurst, Benjamin Hoyland, Durley North Main, John James, and Ellis Wilcock, both of Wombwell Main. All these men are connected with collieries,. and had been down the pit. Mr. Taylor (proprietor) and Mr. Peacock (solicitor) were also present. There was a consultation, and the question was put to each of them as to whether anything further could then be done for the reco very of the bodies, or whether in their opinion, any one was still in the pit. The answer of each was, " I am decidedly of opinion, since examining the pit, that there is not now a living person in the pit, and that at this hour (1.49) it would be dan gerous for any man to descend the pit for any pur pose whatever, and that the only way now the fire is raging so fiercely is to close the downcast shafts, and I think it should be done immediately." When we came out of the pit there was a very strong current, and the flames wore just peeping out of cupola shaft, and at 7.40 they had risen up wards of 100 feet above the cupola top, and the sparks rose to at least 300 feet in the air. In pur suance of our unanimous decision we then closed. the top of the downcast shafts, leaving the cupola open. 1 cannot from my examination form any op i n i o n as to what was the cause of the explosion. By Mr. Morton—Did any one object to closing the pit ? No one. From my experience of col lieries every exertion was made to get into the pit as speedily as possible. Mr. Mortone—Can you form any opinion as to the utmost extent of the flames westwards from the bottom of the upaic shaft Upwards of 60 yards The business of the Horne Circuit commenced here to-day. There were six cases entered for trial on the Civil Side, one of which only is a'special jury casP. On the Crown Side there are sixteen prisoners for trial, but a good many of the charges are of an ordinary descrip tion. Mr. Justice Cresswell sat on the Civil Side, and Mr. Baron Channell, the newly appointed judge, pre sided in the Crown Court. _ CIVIL SIDE.---(Beforeiii: Justice Creswell and a Cxn mon Jury.) RUT AND WIFE V. HEWES. - • • • This was an action to recover damages for injuries that were alleged to have been occasioned by the negli gence of the servant of the defendant. - Mr.- Rd .4. J....4n text, and Mr-- Hawkins were counsel for the plaintiffs ; Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., was for the defendant. It appeared that the defendant was an undertaker in Bethnal-green, and that he had been engaged to conduct the funeral of a Mr. Ny o riter, the landlord of the Seven Stars public-house, Bethnal green, by his widow. The plaintiffs were related to Mrs. Writer, and at her re quest they accompanied the decli.sed to the grave, and on their return it appeared that tae carriage in which they and five other mourners were seated was over turned, and the plaintiff's wife received very severe in juries uprn her head and bands, and it was to recover c +mpensation for these injuries that the present action was brought against the defendant, it being alleged that the accident was occasioned by the negli4ent manner in which his servant drove the coach containing the mour ners. The case on the part of the defendant was thi.t the man who drove the mourning coach was not tLe servant of the defendant, but that he was engaged at the request of Mrs. Writer, who wished to get him a job, and it was also contended that there had been no ne• gligence on his part in driving, and that the accident was occasioned by a waggon driving against the mourn ing coach and compelling him to back his horse to get out of the way, and that in eo doing the hind wheels g ot up in the pavement, and, isrving to there being so large a number of persons inside, toe coach was overaet. The man who drove the coach upon the occasion was called as a witness, and he stated that the accident was entirely occasioned by the waggon suddenly pulling out upon him as he was passing under a railway arch ; and he also proved that Mrs. Writer paid bin 3s. for driv ing the mourners to the funeral, and said that he consi dered he was engaged by her. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant. Cuower SIDE.—( Before Mr. Baron Channell.) Charles Tipple, 39, a surgeon of Baldock, surrendered to take his trial upon a charge of fel miou-ly adminis tering certain nauseous drugs to one Caroline Bo wley, and used other means to procure her tni,carriage. The jury, without hesitation, returned a verdict of not guilty. SOUTH WALES CIRCUIT.—SWANSE,t, March 2. (Before Mr. Baron Wat-on.) THE CYMAIER COLLIERY EXPLOSION. Jabez Toomas, Rowland Rowlands, and Morga;i Rowlands were tried at Swansea yomierday, charged with the wilful murder of Wm. Thomas, Samuel E!. monds, and another, on the 15th of July It. It will be recollected that an exid ision took place at the above colliery on that day in question, by which 114 persons were unfortunately killed. The prisoner Jabez Thomas was manapr of the pit, and the other prisoners were employed iSoi the superin tendence of it, and the question appeared to be whether the lamentable accident had arisen in consequence of the neglect of proper precautions by the prisoners. The jury returned a verdibt of acquittal. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—March 2. MANSION-HOUbm—The Lord Mayor, upon tak ing the chair in the justice room, said be was happy to find that the attention of the Poor Law Board had been directed to the condition of the casual ward of the West London Union at Battle-bridge, and that steps were about to be taken for making better accommodation for the re ception of the casual paupers. He had expressly stated on a former occasion that the males and females were not huddled together, but were kept in distinct compartments of that institution, and he thought it necessary to make that statement, in order to remove an impression which seemed to have somehow gained currency, that he had used an observation to which he had never given utter ance. He was confirmed in the opinion he had previously expressed, of the deplorable want of accommodation in the building to which he alluded, by his friend Mr. Moore, Of the firm of Copstake, Moore, and Co., of Bow-church• yard, so well known for extensive philanthropy, who upon a recent visit to the place was shocked to find that human beings were subjected to such degr►dation. His lordship then said be would take the liberty to suggest that as there were severta unoccupied building in the vicinity of the old Smithfield-market, which could be ad vantageously appropriated to the purposes of the \Vett London Union, the guardians could nut do better than make a selection from that neighbourhood for the ac commodation of the numerous claimants whom necessity has driven into inevitable dependence. lie hoped that the matter would not rest, and be declared that it was his determined intention to call upon the c3mmissioners of the Poor-law Board, for the purpose of submitting to them the urgent necessity which txisted fur energetic action upon the occasion. WORSHIP-STREET.---Two smartly dressed young men, named Thomas Caarters and William Baker, were charged with the commiekion of the following artful and daring robberies. It appeared from the evidence that on the morning of Monday se'nnight, while a 'la ]y nsined Wakeling, resid ing in Merriou-place, Hackney-road, was seated in her parlour, she was informe t by her servant that a young gentleman was waiting in the pas-ago who had requested permission to search the garden f,r a ball which he had accidentally thrown over the back wail. At the same moment, the prisoner Charters appeared at the door and reiterated the request with such profuse apologies for his intrusion, that Mrs. Wakeling was in duced to accompany him to the garden, and after a pro tracted search ta no purpose,they were returning through the house, when a man whom she recognised as the pri soner Baker, suddenly emerged from the parlour anal darted out at the street door, which had been incau tiously left open. The prisoner Charters instantly hastened after him, with the observation that he would soon catch the scoundrel and bring hint back, but nc thing more was seen of either of them, aid on entering the parlour she found that her husband's watch had been abstracted trim the mantel-piece. On the after noon of the same day, a lady named Burbidge was pas sing through the Hackney-toad on her way to her resi dence in Patriot-square, Cambridge-heath, when she felt a sudden pressure at her side, and on turning her bead she observed Charters and another man closely following her; Their furtive intentions were so unmistakeable that she rapidly removed her purse from her pocket, and was holding it tightly in her hand, when the pri soner Charters gra-ped her by the arm, and forcing her fingers asunder secured the purse, with which he darted off at full speed. A gentleman who had witnessed the transaction immediate ly pursued the pri soner, and after a lengthened chase he was overtaken at the side of a lofty wall, which he mounted with cot like agility, but before he could descend on the othtr side he was dragged down by the legs, and handed over to the police. The other prisoner succeeded in eluding appre hension until the fallowing Thursday, when he was ta'ten into custody for being concerned in another robbery in Bartholomew -square, and after a brief examination l•'ore the magistrates of that district he was transferred to this court. Mr. Lewis, jun., called two witnesses with the view of establishing an alibi on behalf of Baker with regard to the first charge, but the magistrate considered that the evidence was perfectly conclusive against both prisoners, and ordered them to be committed for trial. Joseph Edwards, a private in the 4th Drags. an Guards, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncouit with the following robbery : Mr. G. Sehbard, a German loatheriresser in . Heneage street, Bethnal -Green, stated that while prepari 2g to go out with his wife, at 8 o'clock on Saturday even ing, the prisoner, who was a total ktrangur to him, kno eked at the door and asked for Mr. Smith, ofOxford-stret I. Wit ness told him there was no Mr. Smith there, n or any Oxford-street in that neighbourhood, and explain .ed to him that the streets of that name he knew were at the \Vest-end and Stepney. The prisoner apologised f. ir the trouble he had given, and wished them to drink it his expense. Witness refused, but the prisoner pees fetched some gin, and with great persuasion, or " fc Tee,' as the German expressed it, he, his wife, and an other woman were induced to take a small quantity of it. He and his wife then left for Whitechapel, the prisoner :say ing he would go with them, and be did so, till r‘t _last the prosecutor found his company a nuiFa?•nce, wan.tecl. to gpt rid of him, and told him bluntly, "I ,waht no. nat )re of your society ; you had better go." the prisot, ‘er readily took the hint and left them, and on the pros, '- cutor and his wife getting home they found tti^ ,A s ee t iu confusion, the prisoner in custody of a pol' wa Aexaar, --- • Pris .ner—Yes, Sir, I am upon furlough, and about to join tbo 3d Dragoon Guards, now under orders for India. I don't wish to ask questions, but I should like to say a few words, if you'd let me. Mr. D'Eyimoltrt—Yes, certainly ; do so. PriEouer—Well, Sir, I met the prosecutor's wife last Saturday week in Wfutechapel, and she asked me to treat her. That was the firet time I saw her, but I did 'Jo, and we went to a coffee-house there kept by a person. named Hughes, and afterwards I went to her house and stayed with her there all night. Next morning, after I had left, I missed several things from my pockets, and among others a peculiar knife given to me by the owner of a casino at Sheffield on my return from the Crimea, with my name, regiment, and the engagements I had been in upon it. As I wanted to get back my knife, I went to the prosectitoea,, as he ear., but saw hitt! and • his wife together. I did not wish him to know of ml previouE acquaintantoe-„with hja,_. and therefore asked for a Smith, an d; bairlok proffered some drink. the wife then sent her husband out upon some pretence, and I, in presence of the landlady, asked the wife for my knife. The landlady said, " What ! is that knife yours t What a pretty one !" and the wife then fetched the knife, and returned it to me. _ Mr. D'Eyncourt—Well, and allowing all that you say to be true, it dues not at all meet this charge of robbers against you. Prisoner—Oh, I know nothing whatever about that box. The officer having intimated that the wife was out side, and the prisoner expressing a wish to have her questioned, she was called in. She was a tidy, neat looking woman of 30, and on her getting into the wit ness-13,x the magistrate asked her, ;" Did you ever see this knife before t" Wife—Yes, Sir, on Slturday night, at the station houie, when the prisoner produced it. Mr. D'Eyncourt—And did you ever see the prisoner before that time \Vile—Never, Sir. Mr. D'Eyncourt (to the prisoner)—Well, I shall re mand you for a week. Prisoner—l am very sorry, sir, to be obliged to tell you all this about this man's wife, but I assure you, notwithstanding, that it is all perfectly true, and I do hope that at the next examination you will have both the landlady of the prosecutor's house, and also Mr. Hughea, the coffee-house keeper, brought here and ex amined. Thp prisoner said this very earnestly, and, Mr. D'Eyncourt having replied "Certainly; let the officer see to that," the prisoner was remanded. MARLBOROITGH-STREET.—Ajourneyman tailor, named L ‘oney, was summoned by Simon Wentheim tailor, Regent-street, for detaining two coats. Mr. Wentbeim said it was the practice of journeym.n tailors to get work to do at their own houses, and to keep it until ( xt,ortionate prices for their labour were paid. As these workmen generally knew whether the job they were on was a time job, that is, for a wedding or a funeral, and that the garments must 'be delivered by a fixed time, they seldom failed to carry their point., The defendant bad obtained two casts to make a fortnight ago, and had not yet sent them home. The defendant said the reason was that the complainant I gave him a, coat to make, telling him to make it A 1, :neaning in first-rate style. He worked four days on the coat, and was only paid 125., which was not suffi cient payment for his time, considering that he had to find silk and thread. As he expected to, be served in the same way with these two coat, he did not send tLe•n home, but was willing to give them up on payment of 245. for his labour. Mr. Wentheitn would pay the money, but he had a set off of 17s. 6d for cloth sold to the defendant. Beadon said he could not set off goods against labour, unless there was a previous agreement. Mr. Wentheim wished to know whether a workman was bound to deliver goods given out to him at the shop ' from which he received them. . . . . _ Mr. BoAd9n said certainly a workman must take back work to the shop from which he received it, but 11.- no.d not deliver up the goods before he got the money. The order was made fur the delivery of the coats on payment of 24i. LAMBETH.—Yesterday, Mary Webb, Hariet Worefold, and Mary Kingsgate, kitchen maids at the Crystal Palace, were charged with carrying away no less than 82 pounds weight of beef, mutton, bam, fowl, veal, butter, soap, flour, bread, pastry, besides eggs and fruit, the property of the Messrs. Staples, of the Albion Tavern, Aldersgate-street, who are contractors for refreshments at the Crystal Palace. James Scull, a waiter at the palace, was also charged with a similar offence, and Alfred Kingsgate, the husband of one of the female pri soners, was charged with receiving some property found at his house, 1:01)1:ging to the Messrs. Staples. From the evidence it appeared that Mr. Lund and Serjeant Coppin stationed themselves opposite to the gate at which the servants of Messrs. Staples leave at night, and when the females came out they foil med and stopped tkein, and at the station-housefound each loaded with property of every description, in large pockets tied round their shoulders, body, and waist, and placed in side their dress. Oa one of them alone was concealed no less than 32lbs. weight of different articles. Soul! was also taken with a bag in his possession, containing 31bs. weight of beef, barn, fowl, and other articles, and at the house of Kingsgate was found 21bs. of butter, some bread, and a steel. The prisouere' solicitor hoped that both the prosecu tors and his worship would deal leniently with the pri soners, who had up to the present borne a good charac ter, and , treat their offence summarily for the unlawful posses-i n. Mr. Norton observed that the offence was one of a wholesale and ruinous character, against which no Amount of capital coul I stand. He should remand the prisoners to a future day to give time to inquire about their character, and on the account he received of there would depend in a great measure the mode in which be should ultimately dispose of the case. The prisoners were aen remandecl.

THAMES —Alexander Harnett Clark, photographic artist, 5, Sun-court, Upper East Smithfield, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with causing the death of Eliza Bunn, a married woman, by striking her on the head with a hammer. The prisoner was fined 20s. for the assault, which it was alteged caused the death of the vvoitinu. Gov days ago. Since the fine the poor woman was attacked by illness, and died ye.aterday. It appeared that the prisoner was banging some pho tographic portraits to a nail, and that the deceased en tered his shop and an altercation took place between them, but what led to it did not appear. The woman scratched the prisoner's face, and he took up a hammer and struck her on the head. When the case of assault only was heard before, the magistrate thought some pro vocation was given, but nut such as . to j ust i fy . the pri soner taking up a deadly weapon and striking the woman. After a long investigation, Mi. Yardley remanded the prisoner. -- -- - p w o e r e t k of h L av o e nd oo o m n p fo r r .„le th d e 7 ik v u e s s: Philip 1 to SY(I d traTlihaen departurescolonies dufrrionn: the the sels-3 to Adelaide, 2 to Port perienced any recovery.

The extensions and improvement of the dockyard at Pembroke are this year to be carried out to the extent of 120,0001. The widening of the entrance dock is to cost 8,0001., and the lengthening and widening of the dock which has been so 'long in hand is to cost 20,0001. this year. The two new slips and the boat basin extending along the -wharf are also to be vigorously carried on, and these, with provision for scouring away the mud between the Carr. Spit and the dockyard back in front of the dockyard, will cost 30,000'. It is proposed to im prove the navigation in I oat of the yard, and to deepen and widen very materially the channel. This will be done by removing large quantities of mud which have been for years accumulating. The roof over slip No. 12 is to be extended Enward, and altogether the sum appropriated to this will be 10,000/. The erection of larger sawmills, engine house, workshops, a new foundry, and plumbers' shops, is to cost upwards of 20,0001. The sawmills are advancing towards c:mpletion, and the sheds over Nos. 17and 2 ara being extended seaward. The foundry is to be erected on the site of the old iron store. The new slips ara being constructed in the hest manner. The t.ed is of limestone and the copings of granite, and the whole is being laid most sati , faetorily. The work of each contractor is per formed under the superintendence of an inspector, who sees that it is done in a proper manner. LONDON SAUSAGES. (From the Lancet of t ebruary SS.) London sausages—including the sub-divisions of saveloy, black-puddings, anti pllonies—have al ways been regArdHd a 4 somewhat dubious articles of food, being neither fish, flesh, fowl, nor good. red-herring. The process of their manufacture has been described as equivalent to a pracical illus tration of the adage " Give a dog a bad name, and hang him." Horses, dogs, and cats are re puted to startle with prophetic dread at the sound of a sausage-machine ; and wrifers on instinct can adduce no parallel incident to that recDrded IT the disconsolate sportsman, who, whilst regretfully whi,tling the summons of his lost Ponto, observed some sausages in a neighbouring window simulta wously wagging their tails. We have lately learnt that these insinuations present the proceedings of London sausage-makers in a rather favourable light. It appears that they consider tender young horseflesb, the meat of a defunct poodle, or the mortal remains of a cat that has departed her ninth life, as "Too good For human nature's wily food." It is their custom, as reported by one of themselves, to convert into sausages meat entirely unfit for hu man consumption ; whether rendered putrid by keeping, or unwholesome by the diseased condition of the (mimel which supplied it. Our information concerning the poisonous influ ence of diseased or tainted meat has hitherto been principally derived from continental sources. This is not due to any supereminent honesty on the part of our British dealers, but to the absence of any effectual system of Medical Police in this country, until the appointment last year of the Medical Offi cers of Health. One of these gentlemen, Dr. Aldis, of St. George's, Hanover-square, district—recently applied to the magistrate for an order to burn or bury a quantity of offensive and putrid meat (amounting to a hundredweight and a half) lying on the premises of a sausage-maker in Gros venor-row, Pimlico, which was being con verted into sausages. Dr. Aldis and one of his in spectors described the filthy state of the meat. The defendant then observed, "It would be quite useless for him to think of carrying on business if proceed ings like the present were to be taken against him, for there was not a sausage-maker's in London but where the same description of meat was used." As regards this man personally, we may remark that it is possible society would recover the shock, even if be were to shut up shop. Now, the experiments of Gaspard and Magendie have proved that putrid animal matter introduced into the system of healthy animals induced a dis ease closely resembling the typhoid fever of man ; and Dr. Christison records a c kse where the lives of a whole family were jeopardised, and one of its members died, from partakit , g of broth made frotn meat like that above described. Amongst our London poor, who consume the abominable gar bage of which, according to the above st item,nt, cheap sausages are composed, it is not unusual to meet with cases of fever, the cause of which is in volved in mystery ; and it is impossible to believe that putrid meat, however spiced, may be eaten with impunity, especially by a half-starved h man being, living in a vitiated atmosphere, and often with a gin-sodden constitution. More than this, there occasionally occur amongst our poor, cases of disease of a most anomalous kind, and presenting many of those indefinite symptoms which accompany the disease recognised _indisGtieirl-- many as due to unwholesome sausages, d lannWirtem guished as a special kind of poison. "sausage poison , ." and of sausages are eaten 84 died.
