The Colonel coin manaing remonstrated with the native officers, wiso; -- as u-nal, adhered after a passive fashion, to their superi - ors. The men, hoWever, w , Te.still.ref rae b ory , and hp called out a regiment of cavalry, a n d two guns. The two arms in India'seldotn coaleSce, and thec tvalry are usually as' trii-liworthy as ma r i nes on board ship. The men wer-i then ordered to ground their arms and return to their barrack.: They agreed if the Colonel would send away - his cavalry. The Colonel appears to have dreaded the responsibility of an armed con the`' 'and acceded to th e con diti ons,. fir which he has been rebuked. It.ivas Undoubtedly a serious error of judgment, as it was - Almost impossible that the infantry should have ventured to attack the guns, and there were 2,000 Irregulars within 40 miles. I can r2adily imagine, however, that a n old.offlcer would from humanity alone be unwilling. to see his min regiment citt'to , pieces. Terrible as the necessity may be, however I question if the . difficulty will. be overcome without one severe ex ample. This cartridge question is travelling north 'ward, and will excite every Sepoy regiment in India, until in some station a determined Brigadier gives the men the _option, of obedience or death. There is on this subject no weakness either with GoVernthent or am- ng the public. Every man feels to the bottom of his heart - that the safety of the empire binges on the instant suppression of mutiny in whatever shape it niay appear. Some punishment will; I doubt not, be meted out to this regiment. ' The papers have a story that the King of Oude is at the bottom of it all. I need not say -this is absurd. on the 4th inst., Which will be found ,bellw, al corn pared with the statement of the 11th nit., inserted in our last, shows an increase in the amount of cash from rupees 70,97,726-12.5 to rupees 80,55,118-11.9, and a decrease of loans on deposit of Goverome;,t securities from rupees 170,74,089.8-6 to rupees 154,58,016-10-0. INDIA- On Saturday last we (Times) published 'a tele graphic message from Trieste, in anticipation of the Overland Mail. We have now re.:eivad our Indian letters and papers by the Marseilles route. There seem to be no advices from China by this arrival. The following are cur correspondent' letters : " BOMBAY, MARCH 19. " The latest news that we have received from the Persian Gtilf bears date the 25th of February. When t' .e steamer which brought it left Bushire prep - trations were making quietly but rapidly for the despatch of a large portion of the force to att ac k the Persian fortr e ss o f Mohamnaer th. This place is situated on the right or northern bank of the river Karoon, at the point where its waters join thoze of the alreld'y united Euphrates and Tigris. Some 70 miles below, and by narrow and - difficult channels, which however have been of late well surveyed, the open sea of the Gulf is reached. Above Mohammerah some 30 miles, and on the Euphrates, is the Turkish town of Bussora h. Mohamm2rah, indeed, is afrontier posy of Pcrsia, close upon the boundary line be tween the territories of the Shah and the Turkish provinces of Arabia. Commanding, as it does, the current of the Euphrates, the Persian force sta tioned there have been able to do us not little damage by intercepting the supplies which our commissariat officers at work among the Arab tribes despatch down the river for conveyance to the camp at Bushire. - Hence the resolution of General Outram to attack and capture it while yet 'the remembrance of the rout at Khooshab is too fresh in the minds of the Persian authbrities to render an attack on Bushire probable. It is, ' more over, suegested a s a mo tiv e f or occupying fobam merah that, with the mouth of the Karoon thus opened, an advance to Shuster and thence into the interior of the country will. be • comparatively easy. It is quite possible that this latter considerationhas. had weight with the General, and that such an 'ad vance may be contemplated as an ulterior opera tion. But at present the question of siipplies is the more pressing one to an army encamped in a desert country, with a powerful enemy in its front ; and the great Mesopotamian . highway as the prin cipal, almost the only, channel of such supplies, must be cleared and kept clears For this purpose Mohanomerah must be taken, and a sufficient force left' in the place to prevent recapture. That done, the remainder of the force must hurry back to its camp at Bushire, to act on the offensive or defen sive as circumstances may require aga'nst the mass of the Persian army that will have been by that time got together to meet them. ni , . . .. • “Tne def ences o f Mohamerah are reported as formidable, and it is thought possible here that a heavy loss on the side of the assailants will be at tendant upon their eapture.'ty the latest accounts they were manned by 14,000 Persian troops, with 14 guns, some of whom were stationed in the forti fied town itself, the rest strongly intrenched in a date grove outside. The town "will be assailed from the river by the steamers, the Semiramis leading. But the in•retichments in the date grove are not, I believe, acces-ible by .the guns of the fleet, and must be assaulted by the troops oti shore. The portion of the force destined for this service, and of which the embarkation at Bushire had commenced at the date of the latest letters, consists of the 3d troop of Horse Artillery, Captain Aitken's field battery (sent straight up to the . river's mouth with out being landed at Bushire), and, I believe, the whole or the greater 'D'art of the follosing corps : the 64th, 7Blh Highlanders, 2d Europeans, 4th Rifles, 30th and 26th Native liifantry, and the Light Battalion, with some Sappers and Miners. Several regiments will-leave a company or compa nies in the camp, and there also remain behind the 2d Beloochees,, the 23dNative Infantry, and 'the whole of the cavalry. When Mohammerah shall have fallen Brigadier Hall will, I believe, be placed in command of the fortress with the two naive regiments forming his brigade, and the rest of the troops will, as l have intimated above, .be reconVeyed to Bu. hire with all speed. At Burazjoon the site of the 'old camp, from which they were frightened away at the sudden approach of the English the day before the battle Of Khoo slab, the Persi a / 1 8 are again collecting in force. Probably theGenetal will not be able to repeat the blow that he so successfully dealt on the previous occasion without a large accession of strength, which he may await within his intrenchments undisquieted while his communications by sea and river with Turkish Arabia are recure.

In others we have not bad much doing. Government. Securities—The improved aspect' of the money-mark-t has given more confidence to the dealers, and, added. to the reduction of the Bank of Bengal rates, the value-of the Four per Cents. had tradually crept up. We now quote Company's Fours at 16r. Ba. to 16r. 2a., and Sicca Fours at 18r. to 18r. 8a Little doing in Fives at 8 annas per cent. discount.

On Manritius—We quote 53i cents per rupee, and on Bombay 30 days' sight papers 2 per cent. • Freights—Tonnage to a fair extent had been taken up for London and Liverpool at almost the same rates as those quoted in our last—i.e. , 31. 15sjor the former and 31. 7s 6d for the latter place, cargo consisting' of rice, seeds, and light goods in equal proportions ; but the ar rivals being numerous, it was expected .the market would role lower. The receipt, however,. of orders from -China by the Fiery Cross and Lightning on the 21 in stant for large shipments of rice caused much excitement, and tonnage to the extent of 13,000 tons was taken up at °nee for:that country at $1 a hag, a small quantity only having been engaged at a slightly lower rate. The ships taken up to load with rice, we understand, are.the Acastus, the Good Hope, the Albion, the Bengal, the Coringa, the Crescent, the City, the Bushire Merchant, the Hanover, the Ariadne, the Rienzi, the Clasmerdon, and the Swartbniore, to convey in all about 170,000 bags. One or two vesseli are loading for Australia, hav ing come under charter from that country. For America the rate continues at $lO a ton, although many of the ships now in our harbour have been chartered there and sent out at 141. to 151. a ton. The Conrad, now under repairs, is engaged to load with a cargO of timber for Great Britain. The American ship Ocean Rover has been taken un for Havre at 31. 12s 6d to carry rice only. The ships Affaredy. Puguescin, Himalaya,.and Lafay "ette are fixed for France. The Jules and Aslai, for Bombay, at 15r, per ton. For , the ,Mauritius a ,fair amount of business was done at Ir. 4a. to Ir. 5.1. 6p. per bag ; but the last two days the market bas assumed as upward tendency, and.some business has been done at Ir. Ba, per bag. It is expected emigration to the Man rains will soon be resumed. " A at , ange and to some observers a very dis agreeable incident has - occurred in, the North west. '`'A few days since a chowkeydar, or vil 7 lage policeman,- of Cawnpore ran up to an other in Futteghur and, gave him two chupat .6eS. • These - are indi g estible little unleav ene d cakes, the common food of the poorer classes. He ordered him to maks ten more, and give two to each of the five nearest •chowkeydars with the same order. He was obeyed, and in a few hours the whole country waz in commotion with chowkeydars running about with these cakes. The wave swept province af:er provitae3 with a speed at which official orders never fly. The magistrates were poWerless, and - the chupatties at this moment are flying westward. Nol - ndy has the least idea, whit it all means. • Some officers fancy it is.a cere mony intended to avert the cholera ; others hint at-treason—a view encouraged by the native offi cials ; others talk of it as a trifle—a joke. For myself, I believe it to be the act of some wealthy fool in pursuance of a vow ; but its significance is this':—There are some' 90,000 policemen in these provinces. If they should perchance' imbibe dan gerous ideas, how perfect is their organisation. "The annual reports contain, among other in formation, an account of the progress of Pegs. The province is becoming prosperous., The people haVe got rid of their notion that we were about to aban-. The office of Director of the Topographical and Statistical Depot of the War Department, vacant by the demise of Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Rust Jervis, is not yet filled up. The deceased was edu cated at Addiscomb6, and after obt-tining the highest honours at that military seminary of the East India Company ly) was appointed to the Bom bay Engineers, with which service he was con nected until his retirement in November, 1854. He was greatly distinguished for his geographical knowledge and for his proficiency in Oriental lan guages, as well as being an accomplished European linguist. Lieutenant-Colonel Jervis was a Fellovr of the Royal Society, Fellow of the Linnean So ciety, Fellow of the Geographical, and Fellow cf the Royal Asiatic Society, as well as a member of other learned institutions on the continent don the country, and are settling steadily to culti vation. The burmest, Karens, and Shans are thronging into: the northern districts and the area of cultivation has.iucreased by 135,060 acres in one year. The export of rice has risen to 126.000 tons more than the usual export of Calcutta. The trade, which has sprung from nothing, has reached two millions sterling. The revejue is 30 lakhs of rupees (300,0001.), and the experitliture-not 20. There is POLICE INTELLIGENCE-April 13. WESTMINSTER.. —EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE 07 ABDUCTION, AND RAPE. --ROSa Bush; a servant, 21 years of age, and George Richard Clarke, aged 35, a foreman of bricklayers, deicribed as a Married man, with.a family, were placed at the bar, charg ed with the abduction and rape of - Elizabeth Harris, a very pretty and innocent-looking girl, not yet 14, although apparently older, the daughter of 'an opulent Jew Wesman :and clothier, carrying on business at 30, Jaines-street, Buckingham-gate. Mr. .Bleigh, barriSter, conducted the prosecution on behalf of the Associate Institute for the Pro tectiou of Women, and, in his opening, stated that, accordiriff to h's instructions, a more atrocious case of abduction and rape was never brought before a court of justice. He then . went into a brief statement of the facts as afterwards proved in evidence, and dwelt with much feeling upon the pain, 'anxiety, and anguish experienced by the parents of, the girl at the calamity brought upon her by the heartless and infamous conduct of the prisoners. Elizabeth Harris sworn—l am 14 the Ist of next August. I first saw . the male prisoner some months ago; he was employed at some new build. inga near our house. He often talked to my father at the door, and • sometimes spoke to me of an evening at the shop when I was alone. The female prisoner, Rosa, was our servant. On the 30th of March she asked me to go, with her for a walk, and to see Mr. Clarke on the way. She first took me to Kensington Barrack, where thought he was at work, but we 'did 'not find hint, and I then accompanied her to a house somewhere near Notting-hill. A little girl opened the door, and Rosa then took me up stairs to a back room on the second floor. It was about nine 'o'clock at night 'when we arrived there. We bad 'been walking about from three' in the afternoon—the time at which flat my parents' house. There was a bed in the room and we stayed there all night. I wanted to go home, but Rosa would not let me. wanted t ) go hOme the next morning, but she still prevented me. In the course of that day' (Tuesday) the prisoner Clarke came to the house. Rosa had written a letter, as she told me, to him to come. He came into the room about two or three in the afternoon, and remained until nearly .six on the following morning. I don't recollect that he said anything. H e taked a great deal to Rosa. I asked him, when it came night-time, whether he was going home, but he gave me no answer. While be was there I again spoke to Rosa about wanting to go home to my parents. I did so more than once, but she told ine not to bother her. We had something to eat. ' Clarke gave her the money to fetch it. He went to bed in the room between nine and ten o'clock. I was sitting on the carpet near the fire at the time. 'He undressed himself, but I did not see him undress. Rosa was sitting with me on the carpet near-the fire. He wanted' me to get into bed before he undressed, but I refused. lie said "Betsy, get into bed ;" but I would not. He did not before he was undress,d pnt his hands upon me. He repeated his request, while he was in bed, but I would not go.• Atter he had said, " 'Betsy, come to bed," a great 'many times, and I would not, he made me come to the bedside. . He . did not get out of bed ; but he called me to him, and I went to speak to him. Wiien I went to the bedside; what he said to me, after again asking me to come to bed, was, "That it would not matter, because we should be married next week." He did not at any other time talk about our being married. I again replied that I - would not go to bed, but he said I must. All this occupied about halt an hour; and while I was by the bedside I called to Rosa, but she would not answer. I called seve ral times. He got me into bed. I was dressed. I fell asleep at the side of the bed. I don't know how I got on the bed in the first instance. I had not been standing, but sitting on a chair, at the side of the bed. I "don't know bow I got into the bed. My first knowledge of being there was find ing him against me. I had not drank anything that afternoon but tea. I had‘had nothing at all else that day to drink. When I found myself in bed my clothes were not on ; they had, been taken off ; there was no light in the room ; thmre was no fire there. Rosa was asleep on the carpet. I called to her, but she did not answer. When I called Rosa be spoke to me, and told me not to make a noise. Witness here went on minutely to; describe the capital offence charged, and added, I struggled, and still kept calling out "'Rosa," but I obtained no answer. I tried to get out of bed, but lie would not let me. I. pulled him by the hair and arms, but I could not get away from him. He held me so that . l should not call; he held my mouth; he put his hand over my_ mouth FO that I should not call. Next morning he got up and went to his work. Rosa was still lying on the carpet. I told R•sa when she woke what had happened to me, and she told me it was nomatter as I was going to be mar ried on Sunday. I cried, and told her I could not go home after what had occurred. She said it was no matter, I could see- my parents before I left Eng land. Clarke and Rosa bad told me that we were going abroad to America directly after we were mar ried. He said he was going abroad when I 'was sitting at his bedside. I afterwards asked 'R osa why she bad brought me there, when she replied, " Because Clarke wanted to get married and go away." I stayed at the house till Saturday. So did Rosa. Clarke came again on Thursday after noon, but nothing improper then occurred. My mother and a friend came on Saturday and fetched me Wale, Clarke had fluor taken Any liberties now no doubt, . even . ainong the opponents of an nexation, that Pegu in 20 years Will pay a revenue such as in Asia is obtainable only from these rich deltas.

It pa , d, and the native prejudices" we are so fond of talking about never sttind . in the way of their interest. I saw a Parsee, a Brahmin, a Mehter (scavenger), and an English man all sitting on the same seat iu the railway the other day, and all 'profoundly indifferent to the outrage on their respective superstitions. The Scorpion, 6, surveyingvessel, Master-Corn rnanding J. Parsons, Irons the West Itt dia station, has been dismantled and stripped at Chatham, and ht.r stores removed into the dockyard. She is intended to be paid off into ordinary on Friday next. Colonel the Hon. W. L. Pakenharn, C. 8., who, it will be recollected, was Adjutant• General during the Fitter part of the war in the Crimea, and who has been appointed in the ssme capacity *to the Military Expedition destined to act against China, has departed for Hong Kong. Col. Wetherell, C. 8., .Quartermaster-General, also left for the seat of war a few days back. Both officers were to have em barked at Marseilles on Sunday for Alexandria. Two troops of the military train, recently arrived at Woolwich from the -Curragh, under or lers for China, were yesterday morning exercised at the long range in the Arsenal-marsh, in a series of 3-pounds r battery practice. The two remaining troops of the corps at Woolwich were assembled on the Royal Artillery-parade, and went through a course of car bine drill, under the direction of non-commissioned officers of the Artillery. The whole of the Royal Marine battalions were yesterday morning drawn up in the barrack-square at head-quarters in dis tinct companies, and having been inspected by the commandant, Colonel Brown, they were marched to Woolwich-common, and were put through the manceuvres of a field day's inspection. The troop ships Neleus and Mooresfort, at Woolwich, wero yesterday morning officially surveyed prior to th embarkation of the four companies of artillery f r China. The vessels were pronounced well adapted for the purpose, and have been engaged by Govern ment for six months certain, at the rate of 20s. per ton monthly ; consequently, the Mooresfort, Capt. Coulthurst, of 1,200 tons burden, is hired at 1,2001. per mouth. She is fitted for the accommodation 14 officers, 280 rank and file, and six other passen gers, and is to carry abotit 300 tons of baggage, brass guns,' and other war stores. The Leaven and Slaney, gun-boats of the same class as the Lee and Algerine, are now nearly com pleted, and will leave Woolwich during the present week. The four vessels named are of intermediate size, between the larger class of gunboats pre viously constructed and the smallest class of de spatch vessels. They will be found extremely use ful in shallow water, and several of the same class, intended for the Chinese seivice, are now bui'ding at private yards. The Galatea, screw steam corvette, which was commenced about twenty months since, is now in a forward state. Her keel has been laid down, and her ribs are nearly completed. The gunboat Algerine, under orders for China, having been adjusted at Greenhithe, came up t o Woolwich, and proceeded yesterday morning thence for Plymouth. The Lee, Woodcock, and Watch, f u l, gunboats, h avi ng completed th e i r arrangernen s sa il e d yesterday from Wool w i c h f or Green hithe, t o regulate compasses, gerine at Plymouth, whither sea, they are ordered, prior to their departure for the voyage. The Transport .Board, estaVisued for the late war, was abolished on the 31st ult , but the duties of the department will be carried on by Captain William Drew, of the Trinity Board, who is still retained as " Director of Tran..torts." The following appointments were mode at the Adm. ralty yesterday afternoon : Mate -.T. W. Simeon to the Cordelia. Surgeons—Dr. J. W. Reid (B) to the Belleisle ; John E. Hamilton, to the Vestlvius. Staff-Surgeon—Dr. Alex. Armstrong, to the Belleisle. Assistant-Surgeons—John Little, to the Belleisle ; C. H. Slaughter (acting), to ditto ; R. L. B. Reid (act. lug), to the Vesuvius. Medical Inspector—Dr. Alex. M‘Sechnie; to ,the Belleisle. "But where at the present moment we are to look for reinforcements on any large scale it is by no means easy to . say. The army of the Western Presidency has done much, but it was thought that if aided in some of its stations by troops from Ben gal or Madras it might do a little more yet. The 3d Europeans, a lately raised regiment which has never yet.seen service, is lying at Poonah. It lately received orders to march to Bombay, for embarxa tion, and was already on the way when an officer of the Quartermaster- General's Department was sent up in hot haste with counter orders, and the corps returned to its cantonments. It appears that the Ist Madras Fusiliers ; who were to have replaced their Bombay brethren at Poonah, could not, it was thought by the Madras authorities, be spared from their own Presidency. And without being re placed the Bombay regiment could not well be re moved, for its withdrawal would not leave a single European infantry corps in the Presidency lower than Deesa in the north, with the exception of the wing of the 36th stationed in Bombay. We are sending, then, no more European infantry from Bombay, though the 14th Light Dragoons are gone, or going, their last squadron leaving the harbour to-morrow. Their place is partly supplied by a wing of the 12th Lancers, of whom part have ar rived from Madras, and others are daily expected. In such another affair as that of Khooshab the 14th will have ample field to add amp her to their many laurels. The charge cif the 3d Cavalry on that occasion, of which I wrote in my last, has called forth the admiration of a Bengal officer, who cites it in proof of what horsemen, well led, can do against infantry. . After describing the formation of the Persian square as excellent, steady, and un touched by artillery, he proceeds (in a letter to a Calcutta paper), with so vivid a description of the charge—of which he had merely heard from eye witnesses, not seen himself—that I am tempted to extract it : CONIMEACIAL INTELLIGENCE.

Cotton Piece Goods.—Since the despatch of last mail very little business has been transacted in our market, owing to the intervention of the Holee holidays, which caused all doing to be suspended for a week. The mar ket remains firm at last quotations. Fancy G-oods.—The market has been dull, except for articles of low qualities. Cotton Yarns.—This article is dull, and no sales have been effected, with the exception of 100 bales. The market, however, is soon expected to resume an active appearance. Metals.—An improvement has taken place in all de scriptions except Swedish bar iron. We quote. British bar at 351 r. to 36r., and Swedi h bar at 60r. to 65r. per candy. ,Spelter is in good demand, as also pig lead, of which latter the stock is very light. " 6 When Forbes, who commanded this regiment, gave the order to charge, he and his adjutant, young Moore, placed themselves in front of the 6th troop, which was the one directly opposite the nearest face of the square. The other Moore, Malcolmson, and Spens came the least thing behind, riding knee to knee, with spurs in their horses' flanks, as if racing after a hog. In rear of them rushed the dark troopers of the 3J, mad to avenge the death of poor Malet at Bushire. In spite of steel, fire, and bullets they tore down upon the nearest face of the devoted square. As they approached, Forbes was shc.t through the thigh, and Spen s horse was wounded, but unheeding they swept onward. Demoted by the flashes and the fire and the noise and crackle of the musketry, the younger Moore's horse swerved as they came up. Dropping his sword from his hand and letting it hang by the knot at his wrist, he caught up the reins in both hands, screwed his bead straight, and then coolly, as if riding at a fence, leapt him at the square. If, therefore, any man, can be said to have been first, the younger Moore is that man. Of course the horse fell stone dead upon bayonets ; so did his brother's, ridden with equal courage and determination. The elder Moore-18 stone in weight, and aft. Ti n . o r th erea bO u t s in h e i g ht— cut hi s 1 way out on foot, Malcolmson took one foot out of his stirrup when he saw his brother officer down and un armed (for his sword had been broken to pieces by the fall), and, holding on to that, the younger Moore escaped. The barrier once broken, and the entrance once made, in and through it poured the avenging troopers. Oa and over everything they rode, till, getting clear out, they reformed on the other side—wheeled and swept back—a second wave of ruin. • Out of 500 Persian soldiers of the Ist Regular Regiment of Fars, who composed that fated square, only 20 escaped to tell the tale of its destruction. Thus the 3d Light Cavalry, to use their own phrase, gave our enemies a jewab (answer) for the death of Malet Sakib Babadur.' " We have no local news of importance. " Money is plentiful, and the banks have reduced their rates of discount a further one per cent. " Exchange on England, 2s. lid.' " CALCUTTA, MARCH 8. "I have little to tell you of the war beyond this : —The Sdindian recently stated that a force had been ordered to rendezvous at Shikarpore, on its way to Quetta. The names of the regiments were given with a most circumstantial minuteness, and tor a moment the statement was believed. The Seim dian,.for reasons well understood on the spot, has excellent information, and rarely publishes an erroneous report. In this ca-e, however, he has been misinformed. I am positively assured that no such orders have been issued. The Government of India maintains a rigid and most injurious secrecy in regard to all the operations of the war. The frank policy of Lord Dalhousie has been aban doned, and the smallest facts are concealed as care fully as if the Persian Court were in communication' with the Indian press. This mystification is a symptom of the weakness beginning to be felt in every department of Government.

Since our issue under date the 21st ult, we have been in receipt of the London mail of the 26th of January, by the Peninsular and Oriental Company' s steamship Ben tinck, although the advices by that opportunity had already been anticipated—first by the electric telegraph, and subsequently by the regular dak from Bombay. We have not much activity to notice in our produce market, the last advices from home, with one or two ex ceptions, having scarcely caused a better disposition among shippers to operate. While some of our staples have been in better request and enhancad prices have beea paid, others have been easier. An active de mand has prevailed for silk throughout the fortnight. Su4ar has improved both in demand and value. Saltpetre is higher, owing to immediate requirements A fair business has been done in rice. Hides continue to attract attention. Jute has slightly declined, and little doing. Oilseeds have been easier, and supplies more abundant. In other articles we have hardly any change to notice. A steady business has been in progress in our import market. The advices from the Upper Provinces as re gards British cotton piece goods proving favourable, the sales during the fortnight have been to a satisfactory extent, especially of grey goods, at the advance in prices noticed in our last, and but for the dearness of money, and consequent want of facilities, we should have had to report a large amount of transactions. Grey ahirtings, jaconots, and madapollaws have continued to sell freely. For mule twist, however, the demand has been less active. In metals a fair business has been done. Money-market.—A gradual improvement has been visible since our last. A better feeling among capita. lists seems gaining ground, and there is every probability of the pressure soon disappearing from Our market. The 'vete of the Bank of Bengal having likewise improved, as we had anticipated, its rates ofinterest and discount have been reduced 2 per cent, all round in the interval, the margin of loans on deposit of Government securities remaining, however, untouched. Its rates are at pre sent 11 per cent. on loans, 10 per cent, for discounting Government bills, and 12 Lair cert. private bills. The statement of assets and liabilities for the week ending [PRICE 4 D . STAMPED 5D with me before the Tuesday. Last summer he wanted me to get married to him and remain at home until he went abroad. Rosa used to bring. messages from him. By Mr. Arnold—l don't know how my gown was taken off. I don't know who took it oft I don't know how I got into the bed. I do not know that he forced me into the bed. Mr. , Are°ld pointed out to Mr. Sleigh some dis crepancies between the gill's evidence and the state ment made at the time her information was taken on oath and the warrants • granted for the appre hension of the. accused, and remarked that, if the charge was to be shaped for a rape, the contradic tions were of considerable importance. Mr. -Sleigh thotight that every allowance should be made for her tender years and the embarrassing 'circum ;teams of the case. She was a perfect chid in years, and although there might be some trifling alteration in minor detaili, there was no doubt about the fact that the offence charged had bean fully committed, as would be proved by the medi cal testimony. Perhaps the magistrate would allow the case•to stand at present as charged, and would not call upon, him at that early stage of the pro ceedings to elect between shaping the case as a rape and " procuring," under the Bishop of Oxford's Act, ‘cfor the` defilement." Mr. Arnold had unobjectiontothecourseproposed, but said that if he commit ecl for rape, he should feel it his duty to send the information on oath, with the depositions, to the court.where the 0!4. , ce was to'be tried. - - - The girl was then cross-examined by M r . L e t v i s, jun., who attend-d for the accused. She said—My parents tell me I aai only 14. ,Rosa had been in Our s ryice four Months.; I often spoke to Clarke at the door, but she used to t Ike messages. She brought a message from him the night before I left . home. She told the lie said that if I did not come away at 7 the next morning, he would not live to see me on the following Monday. My father and mother were at home when she told me. I left my hoine on the next day. My father and mother were kiudto me. I did not tell them of this. They d.d not know that we were intimate at all. I did not wish to conceal it from them, but I did not think of getting married, and that was,the reason I did not tell. I don't know why I did not tell my father and mother. When she;brought me the mes sage I have spoken of I told her I would not go. I had never been out with Rosa before, It was about 3in the afternoon when we left home. She 'told me she would take me out to have a run and see Mr. Clarke. I had last spoken to him in the street twomonths before. I did not ask her where she was going to. I did not think it was wrong at all. I did not tell my parents I was going out to see Mr. Clarke. I consented to go out to see Clarke and went with her to Kensington Barracks for that purpose. I stood at the side while she went in to lock for him, but he was not there. We walked about from 3 till 9at night. She said we were going home. I knew I had not got home when I went to the house at Notting-hill. Rosa told me it was her friend's house. I did not hear anything said when we got there. She went inside and' talk e d t o the' woman of the house, and she told me to come up stairs, and I went, up. I had not previously to that retibed to go home. I slept with Rosa in the bed 'that night. She wrote the letter the next morn ing to Clarke. r saw a woman and a boy at the house besides the girl who opened the door to us when we firot weut to the houie. The woman brought up some coffee in the morning. Rosa told me to go to bed on the Monday night as I was at a friend's house, and it was too late to go home that night. I wrote a letter home to my parents on Thursday. I did not write in the house on Tuesday. I did not ask to write. r swear posi tively I did not write at all on Tuesday. I have written some letters . to Clarke. Rosa used to indite them. I hive left school 12 months. No money . was given into my hand at the house. Rosa te ceived some money there from Clarke. Isatfrom 3 till 10 o'clock on the Tuesday that Clarke came, hut nothiug was, talked of between us. I asked him if he was . goingjzoine ; that was all I asked him. He took - tea - With us. He never spoke to me all the time he was there till he was going to bed. I don't know who undressed me. I don't know who took anything off me. Ido not know how I got into bed. I screamed out, I swear, when I found myself in the bed. I screamed loudly, very loudly, as loudly as I could, on all the occasions, but no one came to me. I refused to go home afterwards. When he got up in the morning he went away without speaking to me. He never talked to me :.bout marriage afterwards. I did net tell the landlady what had happened to me. nos% f-tched the things all the time that we were in the house. The longest time she was ever away was five minutes. She was constantly with me ; and I never left the house till my mother fetched me. I did not like to go home because I feared my parents would. not look upon me. I did _ _ not tell the old lady of 'the house because of the disgrace. Re-examined by Mr. Sleigh—l gave the letter I wrote home to Mr. Clarke to post. Rosa washed ()tie of my articles of under-clothing in the room ou Wednesday. I saw Clarke give Rosa money on the Tuesday_ arid. Thursday—l . think 10s. and 4s. She showed it me afterwards. Mr. Sleigh having solicited an adjournment, the prisoners were remanded till. Friday, and bail was refined for their appearance. SOUTHWARK.—Edward lohn Syer, a person employed by Sir O. Napier's election committee, was summoned before Mr. Combo by Wm. Wise, cab driver, No. 2,134, for refusing to pay him 16s. for the hire of his vehicle on the day of election, the complainant being engaged to carry the voters to the polling booth. The complainant said he was engaged by the de fendant to carry the voters on the 30th ult., the day of the Southwark election. He had since ap plied for payment, and being unable to get his money, he was compelled to take the present pro ceedings. Defendant—l admit employing the complainant. On the 28th ult. I engaged 30 cabs for Sir Charles Napier-25 at 18s. the day, and sat 16s. The complainant was one of the latter, I received my orders through Mr. James, Sir C. Napier's commit tee agent. I have those orders in writing, and was authorised by the committee. Mr. Combo—Then you must pay the complainant and look to the committee. Defendant—But I was then appointed superin tendent of cab 3 for the election, and surely lam not answerable. Mr. Combe—You must pay, whether superin tendent or not. You were the only person who hired the complainant. If you had told him to go to the committee, as they were in want of cabs, and if they had hired him, they would have been an swerable, but you hired him and must pay him. Defendant—How shall I act with Sir C. Napier under the circumstances ? Mr.' Combe—Go'ancl see him about it. Defendant—That would be of use. Mr. Combe—That's another thing. Who is Sir Charles's agent ? Defendant—Mr. James, of Croydon, and Mr. White acted for him. I received my orders from the committee, and the complainant should go to them, and not to me, who am only a poor man. Mr. Combe—You must pay it and aue them. I understand you actually carried the voters to the poll, and surely, as that is the case, they will pay for that. Sir Chas. Napier had the advantage of the voters, and he must payif the demand is correct. A cab proprietor in the body of the court called out, "The committee hired 25 of my cabs, which were used in conveying voters to the poll, and I can't get my money. It's rascally conduA of Sir C. Napier and his committee, but I'll make him pay." Mr. Combc lam sorry to hear th ese complaints, and I think there must be something that has de layed the settlement of the accounts between Sir Charles and Mr. James, his • agent. There might have been some agreement about the gross amount to carry him through his election. I daresay if you wait a little time you will all get your mon e y. s yer _.:lt's disgraceful on his part as well as his committee's to allow one of his servants, a poor ma n, to be summoned for a cab hired by their orders to carry voters to the poll. Mr. Combe—l cannot help it. I must act accord ing to law, and as you were the hirer of this man's cab you must pay him. Syer—lf I must I hope you will give me a little time, as I have not the money-at present. Mr. Combe—What time do you want, then, as I order you to pay 16s * 3 and ss. costs ? Syer—l'll pay it in a week, sir. But what must I do ? There are nearly 30 cabmen in the same position, and I may be summoned here by all. Mr. Combe—l should recommend you to sum= rnon Sir C. Napier in the County Court, as if you have the orders of the committee in writing he can not get out of it. He could not have had all those voters hal it not been for the cabs, as many would not have gone to the poll bad they not been carried there. At the same time I should advise you to apply fro him first. Syer—l'll do that directly, sir ; and I am much obliged to your wort hip for giving me time to pay ison ... 2 ... o ishop, ~ late trect, ate of er, of uare, Tow, the Stu ....... NG. No. untl
