They all got drunk, and on their return, while going down Brixton-hill, they drove the cart against an omnibus. Sergeant John Hamilton, 18 P, perceiving the danger they had escaped, and also that neither of the parties were capable of driving, caught the horse by the head and stopped them. The in stant he did so, Green and the other prisoners got out of the vehicle and set upon the sergeant in the most savage manner. They knocked him down several times, kicked him while on the ground in a savage manner, and had it not been for the timely arrival of assistance, they might have killed him on the spot. As it was they broke one of his fingers in two places, and otherwise very seriously injured him. ➢ir. ELLIOTT remarked, that any punishment he could impose upon the male prisoners would fall far short of that which their outrageous and brutal con duct called for, and he should therefore commit them to the sessions. Rebecca Ablett was to pay a penalty of 405., or in default fourteen days' imprisonment; and the other three, Sarah Ablett (the bride); Phcebe !Green, and Mary Pledge, he should commit to prison for one month each.

HE SPIRITS, and COMPLEXION RESTORED. The NATURAL REGENERATOR of the DIGESTIVE ORGANS (the Stomach and Intestines), WITHOUT Glysters, Baths, Pills, Purgatives, or Medicines of any kind, BY A SIMPLE, NATURAL, AGREEABLE, AND INFALLIBLE MEANS, called " THE ItEVALENTA ARABICA" (n nutritive and eminently curative fecula derived from an African plant). The Revalenta Arabica is not a medicine, but a simple ali mentary substance, agreeable to the palate, more easily digested than any other f :est, and, in its immediate effects upon the stomach and intestines, eminently curative and strengthening, radically re • moving and healing even the most inveterate affections of these vi,,cera, which it restores t. their primitive vigour and activity. By removing all disorders from the stomach and intestines, mid enabling these org.ins to perform their important functions freely, and to supply the system with a healthy chyle. the "Revalenta Arabica" eradicates, in its ulterior effects, all the host of refractory, obstinate, and painful diseases which have their origin or their seat in deranged or weak digestive organs, such as indigestion (dyspepsia), dysentery, costiveness, liver complaint, weak and extinguished appetite, fetid breath, nervous headaches, hemorrhoidal affections, obstruct , ons, arid irregularities in the menses., leucorrhtea (the whites), sleepless• ness, nervousness, biliousness, genera! deblity and wasting of the Lolly, languor of bod , and mind, hypochondria, gout, scrofulous and strunious affections, asthma, dropsy, gravel, Bce.

The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un cemprosing hurry ; but the troth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item in the compact; it alone dignifies Chet alliance. Bligkted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than povey or misfortune.

" Martha Day, of 94, High Holborn, states thas she is 14 years of age, and has been afflicted with Fore eyes from her infancy, occa sioned by the measles ; and for the last three years has been unable to distingui-h objects with one of her eyes, and has suffered much pain. She ha* been under the care of several occulists, particularly the principal one of the Royal Westminster Ophthalmic Hospital ; yet the inflammation increased and extended down the side of the face, producing a hard swain; or tumour just below the jaw -bone. In this state of disease she was advised to apply Durkee's Green Mountain Vegetable Ointment ; in a few days the swelling and in flammation entirely subsided, and she can now see to read ordinary print with that eye, the sight of which was considered past restora tion." The distinguishing feature of this ointments is its power in reducing inflammation ; it is therefore highly beneficial in gout, rheumatism, erysipelas, bronchitis, ringworm, glandular swellings, and all scrofu lous affections. The proprietors have consigned the ointment to Messrs. H. Preston and Son, 94, Smithfield-bars, London.

The rise and progress of the system within our own memory, its present position, surprising re sults, and probable effects on society all over the world, cannot be paralleled, and offer matter for consideration iinportsnce. How, from a o l afu paramount steam as a • became an established fact, and the means moving power of using it were changed and improved by succeeding ~e t u i n d t e a, and t he increasing possibility mit.ds, is indeed a wonderful story, almost passing belief, and which cannot be read without advantage. The alleged fore-seer of steam in its usefulness, in the beginning of the seventeenth century, was imprisoned and made in sane. The idea was realised, but succeeding prophets • met with little better reception. And when i n our own century, only a score of year s ago, Thoin.l-3 Gray, a best crotchetty enthusiast , as his friends call e d hi m, suggested that a gener al system ofiron railways might be and ought to be laid down, whereon locomotives should rue, and devoted his whole mind and heart to reeking clear the practicability of the scheme, and the great advantages that would result to the nation from it, a leading review merely expressed the general opinion when it said, that " Gray was a madman, and ought to be put into 13ediatn."— The Builder. FORGERY OF BANK NOTEB.—Seven Polish Jews hay. been arrested on a eharge of having been concerned in forging Rus,ian and frUsilan bank notes. It appears 01 , 4 these men, being sharply pre'sed at Hamburgh and ~Is,w here, st,ught an asylum at Paris, hoping there to . -cape detection, itot.ithstanding the recent arrest of libnpp and Rowanz. , lf, their accumpijoec A great nittner of articles tending to prove their guilt were s. ized in their pussession, and amongst the rest a voluminous correspondence in Hebrew. An investiga tion was at once instituted, and it appears that it ha neen found necessary to send ellfillining commissions to Hatnburgh, Leipzic, Cologne, fistiigiberg, and even ISenegal, from which two of the v i iiisoner s have late') returned. One of the witnesses against them is the money-changer Meyer Speillman, whose nephew was lately murdered. Forged notes of the Russian bank had been presented to him, but refused. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSIOA-HOUSE. , ! .. 0 he LORD MAYOR said he had just received a letter m his friend Sir Peter Laurie, who w ,s in Scot land, enclosing a communication relative to Mr. Joseph Ady. Ills LORDSHIP then read a letter signed W. M. Pierce, and dated West Ashby, Horncastle, together with which the writer had transmitted the following letter addressed by Ady to Mrs. Pierce : " August 7, 1847. " Aiadam,—Your husband has embarked in an un dertaking rendered illegal by various Acts of Parlia ment, subjecting him and yourself and your junior children to serious liabilities and insults. lie may be dragged from his home as a felon at any hour of the night or day, confined in a felon's stone cell, without glass window, upon straw and water. The police may intrude themselves into your apartments, possess - hemselves of your cash and jewels, paraphernalia, and leave you to the tender mercies of the law. On the receipt of twenty shillings I wilt point out the disease and remedy.—Respectfully, "JOSEPH ADY, Accountant. "5, York-street, Charlotte-street, Whitechapel, London. " One of the bishops was in a similar case. He paid my fee, took my advice, and escaped unscathed." The LORD MAYOR said he considered the letter signed "Joseph Ady" constituted an attempt to ex tort money by threats, and if any case resembling that of which notice had been given to him by Sir Peter Laurie were brought before him, and shown to be under his jurisdiction, he should most decidedly act upon that view of it. Innumerable letters had been transmitted by Ady to all parts of the country, and addressed to the wives of persons whom that indivi dual represented as being in great peril, and the utmost alarm had of course been occasioned, particu larly in instances where the heads of families hap „wiled to be from home. Ills Lordship declared that lie felt most strongly for the multitudes who had been duped by this indefatigable tormenter, and that if it was not for the indignant exposures made by the press, there would have been much greater occasion for sympathy. In conclusion, his Lordship ex pressed an opinion that a great deal might be done towards checking the nuisance by placarding public places in the various towns with bills, cautioning all persons against the imposter. Francis Thomas Griffiths a young man who was in the employment of Mr. VVest, jeweller, in Lud gate-street, was charged with having committed a forgery upon the London Joint-stock Bank, to the amount of 1151. 10s. Messrs. Bush and Mullens, the solicitors to the Committee of Bankers for Protection against Forgery and Fraud, attended for the prosecution ; Mr. Wont ner appeared for the prisoner. Mr. Kay, a clerk in the London Joint-stock Bank, stated that a cheque purporting to be drawn by Mr. West, who kept an account at that establishment, for 1151. 10s., was presented at the counter and paid on the 16th of August last, with a Bank of England note for 501., No. 38,649, and 651. 10s. in gold. The cheque was drawn in favour of Mr. Wild, or bearer. Mr. Thomas West, jeweller, of Ludgate-street, stated that he knew the prisoner, who had been in his employment about twelve months, and had left him in 1845. The cheque produced was not in wit ness's handwriting, and he had never authorised any one to sign it for him. He was acquainted with the prisoner's handwriting, and the writing in the cheque looked like the prisoner's handwriting. The signa ture was evidently a copy of witness's, but the body was not a copy of his handwriting. He believed the name of Wild in the cheque was in the prisoner's handwriting. On his cross-examination, witness stated that he had expressed the same opinion on that day week in the London Joint-stock Bank, that he knew the prisoner's father, but had had no communication with him upon the subject, and that he knew nothing of the prisoner since 1845. Mr. Archibald Griffith, clerk in the issue depart ment of the Bank of England, stated that the 501. note above described bad been brought to him in the name of " Wild" for fifty sovereigns, which he ac cordingly gave for it. Michael ~24a dop (policemen 274'. stated that he took the prison r into custody in avendish strett, Hoxtolos at eig t o'clock that morning, and found in his pockets a gold watch, some trinkets, and so ne silver. The prisoner was remanded. CLERKEN WELL. Mr. Edward Pratt, a furniture broker, of Liver pool-road, Islington, was charged by Mrs. Caroline Passmore, with an assault. The prosecutrix deposed that her husband, prior to the 14th of August, carried on the business of a sad dler and harness maker at No. 12, Compton-street, Brunswick-square. On the afternoon of that day, about half-past five o'clock, she was in the drawing room with her four children, when the defendant, in company with three men, broke open the street-door with a crow-bar; and after entering the house de fendant ordered the men to force her down stairs. She clung to the doors, when they hammered her hands to make her leave go, by which the bone of one of her fingers was broken and dislocated. Her side was injured, and she was confined to her bed for three da3 s, under the care of a surgeon. They subsequently carried her down stairs, and with violence threw her into the street and shut her out. Cross-examined—Her husband was a tenant in the house. A distress had been put in for arrears of rent. 1 here were two quarters' rent due. Sne ap plied to her landlord for three days, which was re fused, and the whole of her furniture was seized. Mr. Robert Cressy, of No. 13, Cotnpton-street, de posed that he saw the prosecutrix thrown violently from the house on the pavement, and kicked by one of the men accompanying the defendant, who was there and assisted in throwing her out. She was in a fainting state, and he (witness) went to her assis tance. The solicitor for the defence handed in a stamped agreement between Mr. Passmore and the landlord. Mr. TYRWHITT said the case was one which he would not take upon himself to decide, but would leave it for a jury, but bail would be accepted for de fendant's appearance. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday a fashionably-dressed man, named Edward Charles Butler, whO described himself as a gentleman, was charged with having obtained, under false pretences, a gold watch and chain, the property of Mr. Robert Last, a silversmith and watchmaker at Yarmouth. The prosecutor stated that on the afternoon of Wednesday last the prisoner entered his shop, accom panied by a gentleman named Stagg, whom he had previously known, and representing himself as "Cap tain Butler, of the army," requested to be shown some gold watches and chains of the best quality, a num ber of which were accordingly exhibited to him • and he having selected a watch and chain of the value of 241., requested witness to call early the next morning at the York Hotel, where he was staying, for the money. The prisoner then left the shop with the property ; and on calling at the hotel at the time ap pointed, he was informed by the landlord that Cap tain Butler had never lodged there, and was merely a casual visitor, but that he would probably hear some thing about him at an adjoining cottage. He accord ingly proceeded there, and was answered by the land lady, who told him that the captain had left early that morning, and on asking her whether he had removed his luggage, she answered that he had not any, as all his property consisted of two shirts, a collar, and a horse rug, which had been taken away. From some subse quent information he made his way to the telegraph station, where he gave a minute description of the prisoner, with directions for his apprehension, and while there he met a female name d Cullingford, who had gone to give similar information respecting a diamond ring which he had obtained from her. He subsequently received an answer by telegraph, re questing his immediate presence in town ; on arriving he found his watch in the possesion of the police, and the prisoner in custody. In answer to the Magistrate, the prosecutor stated that he had been since informed by Mr. Stagg that the prisoner had been introduced to him as a cap tain in the army and member of a lodge of Free• masons ' but he had only known him since the pre vious Sunday. Sergeant Price stated that after t he arrival of' the train, at four o'clock that morning, he su cceeded in tracing the prisoner to th e Guildhall Coffe.e-house, where he found him in bed, and the watch lyrg upon the table, which he secured, and took him into cus tody. On searching he found a diamond ring upon his finger, and two dice in one of his pockets ; and the porter at the hotel afterwards handed him several false dice, and other implements of gaming, which were found concealed between the bolster and mat tress of prisoner's bed. On learning the nature of the charge the prisoner told him that he had been unexpectedly compelled to go to London to settle a bet of 501., and that it was his intention to return speedily and arrange the prosecutor's claim. In answer to the charge the prisoner declared that he received the watch upon the distinct understanding that it was not to be paid for until the following Sa turday, and that a proposal was made by Mr. Stagg FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE.
