THE SUN, LO lON, FRIDAY EVEN ING OC f OBER 2, 1857 REFORM DEMONSTRATION AT BURYI _ bps sincere and hearty support. (Hear, hear, and applause.) One great advantage of bringing for ward s reform bill just now would be, that its in troduction would not be the result of cl twour. It was-not desirable that legislation—should-be post poned until it must take place under pressure. He had now 'only to thank his constituents again. There - were few members of the Rouse of Commons who could say, as he could, that be had been re turned free of expense , and that when a - petition was lodged against him , his return was defended by their own subscriptions. He owed them a deep debt of gratitude for the manly way in whioh they had always supported him, and he hoped that they would always equally value their own independence and liberty. The hon. gentleman then proposed " the health of Mr. J. A. Turner, M.P., and suc cess to the commercial interests of Lancashire." (Cheers.) An assemblage, which may be described as a mo ster tea . partf, took place at .Bury (LanCeshire), qn Wednead4 evening, to celebrate the. return of Mk. R. N. Phillips as representative of the borough at - the last . election. There were more than 4,000 persons present; a wooden building, covering 2,946 _ square yaxds, having been erected for the Occasia decorited with coloured calico, and brilliantly ill - minated. Mr. T. Wrigley, the chairman of M . Philips's election committee, presided ; and the ` e were also on the platform Ad mi r al Sir Chas. Na p ie k , M.P., Mr. J. A. Turner, M.P., Mr. J. Cheetham, ietr. G. - Hadfield, M.P.; Mr. J. Pilkington, M.P., Mr. M. Phillips, Dr. M'Kerrow, and Sir J. Wattir,'of Manchester. The CHAIRMAN said they were assembled to do honoUr to - thet constituency in the person of their valued representative—(cheers)—and to Celebrate the triumph o± a principle of which Mr. 'Philips was the type. (Cheers.) I& - Mr. Philips this borough ha a representative of no ordinary abili- EU* and also one on whom his constituents could pre-eneinently rely that be would never deceive - them. (Cheers.) The chairman then proposed, in succession, the toasts of " The Queen," " The Prince Consort And the restof the Royal Family," and, "The Reit* and- Navy," which were enthu siastically 'receivect.' Sir C. NA.PER, rose to respond to the last toast, amidst hearty cheering. The gallant admiral com menced by referring to the ch erecter of the naval pro fession, and his Baltic campaign;- ut soon proceeded to speak of the all-absorbing topic of the day. After alluding to the neglected warnings of Sir C. J. Na pier, he remarked that bygones must be bygones and we must all put our shoulders to the wheel and endeavour nto send reinforcements. In the first in stance, we were not sufficiently active in sending troops to India. Our first troops sailed only on the Ist of whilst the news of the mutiny arrived on the 28th of May. There was great blame, but the blame he thought was not to the Government, but to the country, which cried out and insisted upon the Government doing away with the income tax, and the Government was obliged in conse quence to make great 1 C ulttotitnizi lu the, army and our navy. What had they gained ? They got rid of the 9d., and he believed-they would have ls. to pay in future. (Laughter.) It was all very well to say, " The East India Company must pay," but he told them that if the East India Company could not pay the bill, John Bull must. (Hear.) It was the people of England who insisted on reductions. He went himself to Lord Palmerston, and said, "My lord, if you will stand up in this house, and say you will not be responsible for this country unless a proper army and navy are kept up, you may depend upon it you will receive the cheers of the country from one end to the other." lam sure that would have been the case ; but Lord Palmerston, - like other ministers, was afraid of losing his place. (Laughter.) Now, said Sir e llarles, if you had not insisted upon the army and navy being reduced, I have no hesitation in saying that in 48 hours you would have been able to send 10,000 or 15,000 men out to India. Just reflect on what horrors that would have saved. You would have prevented the hor rible massacre at Cawnpore, and the threatening of Lucknow at the present moment, where there are 1,000 English, men, women, and children, locked up, short of provisions, With few to defend them,- and an army of barbarous rebels besieging them. I wish to God I could take all this assembly here to Lucknow, with even only. Iliidgeons on their shoulders, and we would save all those unfortunate creatures from being murdered. (Cheers.) Mas sacred they will be, unless, indeed the officer in command there has decision and determination suf ficient. He is in an awful position. Those women and children have only the choice of being violated and murdered, and treated in the most barbarous manner, in the event of the rebels succeeding in taking the place, and the governor has abeelutely nothing to do to save them from this ignominy arid cruelty but ie destroy the whale of Lucknow. That ladies, may appear to you a horrible thing, but what can be done ?' We have seen what has been done at Cawnpore, and when we reflect on what must be done at Lucknow if no relief has taken place-, there is nothing on earth left but for the man in command with his own hands to destroy his fel low-countrymen, women, and children. It is a horrible thought, an awful thing to think of, that with our own bands we must apply the match to destroy our women and children from the horrid barbarities -thAt were practised at Cawnpore, and will -be practised again at Lucknow if the rebels sueteed. But I will say if the governm'nt were rather slow in beginning, and myself and other members of the House of Commons did all we could to urge them to send troops - out with more vigour than they were using, yet, after they had oute began they have gone on- with the . greatt•at energy possible. Having expressed his opinions on this subject at further length, and declared the necessity of calling out the whole militia-, Sir Charles Napier said— Now . ; gentlemen, I am not exactly of opinion that amidst all this we ought to give up reform. (Hear, heate) I think that reform can' go on at the s =me time that we are sending troops to India. It re -quires only a- stroke Of the pen from the Minister to order so many thotrsend men to go there, and. whitst they are performing the rope° I do hope and trust the ceuntry wilt keep Lord Palmerston to his premien 'to-give us reform. I don't know t, what extent of reform you go in Bury—(laughter) —I ge tolerably far myself ; but I will telt you there" is onespecies of reform we are alt asking for. I wailtiO see the constituencies reform themselve4, by sending their mem s :era to Parliament free of ex pense ; and yOu-msy depend upon it; if you wish to get good members ef Parliament you must send theta- there without half ririeng them. Some that you send there the first thing they think of is to get places to make up for their louse , . (Laughter.) You laugh at that, but it is very true ;. and oth• r gentlemen are ob!iged to follow a course of coo nomy---aed I am one of theee who do- it—lto reco ver the- expervs my election has cot me. I don't know how your ineml er has got off here. (A voice _...6,‘F ree ,". _ail:a:cheers.) Well, then, I ee-el nut talktoicere yen' are-revormed ; yon have-reform d yourselves;'but let all ot:ier constituencies of Eng landicicithesime, and depend upon Ii they - will send a yeti` diffhidereteclas3 of meniberete Parliament from what they-do at present. Reinember how many men there. aril m Ali c'enstituency, how many in Man - ches'fie,;' arid in various-other towns and comities, far fitter to represent you than those you send to Parliament now ' - but they are kept ba:rk because they - eat nelt 'afford if. By reforming yourselves, you may -rely 4-en . it you will get the s-ivic?s of members more efficient, and who will not hunt for plaUes` as Your representative are doing .at the pro setif(*ofnent. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN-, in a long address, proposed the heaßy of Mi. It. N. Philips. The tOiSS was re ceivsid' with great Mr. - R. N. PHILIPS, M.P., baling expressed his acknoivledgments, referred to one of the incidents of his ek.ction. He then remarked that with re spect to- the labours of the past Eessi in of Parlia ment, he believed that thee never was a House of Comronnv which bad more freely granted to the GoVetnieerit Of the day all needful supplier. He had- voted- hi' favour of the large grants that had been - given to the Government for the support of the-'array and navy and the civil service ;• and it was noii' the blisiness of the executive government properly to 'administer those grants. Thera had been many Measures brought f , rward by the Ge-- , • vernment which:were of c msi.lerable impOrtance • o the well-being of a commercial community for ills•relating to law reforms—one with respect to thiPhetter -regtilation of wills and the administra tion of the property- of deceased persons. The vote which he believed was most int-resting to his con stitnents was upon the ballot. As he bad promised, he gave the measure his support, and he regretted not met with better success. He Wished that those who opposed it. would show some- other plan by which the object in view might be, attained. (Hear, hear.) Every man who IkadAbe franchise should have the pri vilege-of-using it in the way he thought best. (Heine beam)- He considered it degrading to a man to have to go round a borough canvassing the elec tors.— Tee electors shoUld be allowed to see the candidates, to Make then selectien e and if they did not like any of them to abstain from voing alto gether. In the next session the house would have to consider' most seriously our. colonial and in ternal aff how airs. He had made u p hi s mindhe should act with regard to India ; h e should give h e ' s cordial support.to the Government,in order to enable them-to obtain everythi ng necessary t o pu t down the rebellion. (" Hear, hear," and applause. ) It was nonsense to begin yet to talk of what ought to be done in the government of India until the HARBOURS OF REFOGE.—The select committee ap country was again our own.

The compe,ti tors•were Richard Moss, of Bermondsey, and Henry Ledger, of Rotherhithe, young men ju.t out of their time, and whose exploits are principally confined to their own neighbourhood. Betting was very quiet, Moss, if anything, being the favourite. The weather was very foggy, and it was thought the race muet be put off, but the fog clearing up a little, the Venus, Capt. Shaplin, left 'London-bridge, and . arrived at Woolwich with a large cargo, whilst the meti were out rowing. T. Can non having been chosen as umpire for Moss, James Corps for Ledg er , an d th e ce l e b rate d Harry White, re feree, the men took their stations. On going off they were beautifully even, Moss took a slight lead, then Ledger carne up and passed him, keeping ahead for ICO , yards. , boss drew up again, and they were scull and scull to Charlten, where Moss again drew ahead, but was presently overhatited by Ledger. In this way, pass. ing dnd repassing, they rowed half a mile further, when Moss went rapidly ahead, and maintaining bis po.ition, , won with the greatest ease. The winner trained a coffee•house, Woolwich, under Richard 'Turner, and was shown up by Wm. Deal,.jun. N.4. - 47a and tigit9zy Intelligence. Major-General the Earl of Cardigan has arrived n Dublin for the purpose of inspecting the Bth Hussars and the 17th Lancers, previous to embar kation for India. A letter from Malta, dated. Sept. 25, says : "It is satisfactory to find that the Government at home have at length determined to despatch troops across the Isthinus of Suez. Orders have been received by the Lieut.-General Commanding to place two companies of the 37th Regiment in readiness to embark by the next packet which con veys the outward India mail to Alexandria. The destination of this vanguard of British troops is stated to be Aden, and it is said that it will be fol lowed soon afterwards by the other companies of the regiment." The 4th company of Royal Engineers, under the command of Brevet-Major L. ,Nicholson, and the 11th company, commanded by Capt. C. E. Cum berland, will leave head-quarters, Brompton Bar• racks, Chatham, at an early hour this morning for Southampton, for the purpose of proceeding over land to India. An immense quantity of sapping and mining implements, intrenching tools, and other materials required by this branch of the ser vice, with photegraphie apparatus, batteries, &a, was forwarded yesterday and the previous day - by the 'Royal Engineer train from the - stores at Bromptoa to Southampton, to be shipped for India, to arrive with the Royal Engineers. The Sappers and Miners are also provided with a number of the newly-invented portable indiarubber boats, for the purpose of transporting the officers and men across the rivers of India, and the utmost care has been paid by the authorities at the head-quarters toprovide the officers and men with everything they may require for carrying on the campaign in India. The 10th company, under the command of Capt. A. A'Court Fisher, and the 21st, under that of Capt. G. Neville, are both ready to embark at an hour's notice.

The murder of James Henderson, farmer, at Bramall, Cheshire, at an early hour on Wednesday morning, when he was shot dead while asleep in bed, has created the most intense interest through out the neighbourhood, and great numbers of people have already visited the scene of the tragical occurrence. In the accounts given in the Sun of yesterday several mysterious circumstances, incon sistent with the story told by James Henderson, the eldest son, of the house having been entered by burglars were briefly glanced at. Th e arrest o f this son, who is 34 years of age, on his return from Manchester, after the despatch of ou r re p or t, on Wednesday evening, by Mr. A n d rews , c hi e f superintendentsuspicion amfv o ni f nr withholding teimrewasa countypolice,fnadtthoheterhn, other removes t ur Cheshire whiche rsehdiri thesethe is the e s e ir nn able to keep back. It would be gathered from that report that on Tuesday night 11 persons went to . bed at Hardy's farm, in c l u di ng —th e a in pp a ro b a e c d h r e o d om fro o m n t t h h e e s s a t m ai e rca if b e i , s au f d at a h m er a 's rr , fo o d n d t a h n e c,h le te ft r, hz s d ei a e s , Mrs. rightH eonf deceased . m. one bedr oom ; th e pr i soner i n a bed e the e r o o o om , de a o d e t a o se in de i , ng w floor, s and tc t h deceased's. There are three bedrooms over the ground floor apartments in front of the house. Another daughter, Jane, slept in a small room on the same floor but looking to theback of the house. The doors of all these rooms open into a short passage, and only a few yards in length at the top of a staircase, of two flights of six steps each. At the bottom of the upper six steps is a I d" an mg where the steiraturn, lighted by a square window glazed with small diamond shaped panes of glass set in lead. In one of two attics, ascended from the passage thus desc r ib e d by two other flights of six steps, slept the other son, Thomas Henderson, and a servant man and a servant boy. In this room was also a sheep dog. Tile other attic was occupied by a servant woman. Two Irish lads, outdoor farm servants, slept in agranary entered from the farmyard by a flight of stone steps. These members of the household retired to their chambers at various hours on the Tuesday evening. Thos. Henderson, who had bean sent to get his show mended, returne I home and went to bed about ten o'clock, when he found That his father had already retired, his usual prac tice being to go to bed between 8 and 9 o'clock. The servants, male and female, had also retired. His mother, who had arrived late from Manchester, where she had been with horse and cart, driven by a man-servant, to fetch grains to feed cattle with, went to bed soon afterwards with her daughter. Jamet, the eldest son, who had returned from his employment as cashier of Messrs. Sanders, Son, and Co., cornfactore, Manchester, ten miles distant, about 7 o'clock, was the last to retire to bed, an I is supposed to have been up until 12 o ' c lo c k. Hi s s tory is, that he was awoke at 2 o'clock by hearing the discharge of a pistol in his father's bed-room. He knew it was a pistol shot, because he could distin guish the sound of a pistol shot from that of a gun. He got out of bed and laid hold of a doublc-barrellcd gun, and then opened his bedroom door, and, see ing somewhat indistinctly a tall man near the win dow at the bottom of the first-flight of six steps of the staircase, he fired at him. The charge was one of stun 1 round shot (about/No e 6), and went partly through the right-hand corner pane of glass at the top of the window, and partly against the plaster wall by the side of the window. He says the man screamed and took to flight, and that then a light he had seen in his father's room was ex tinguished, and that two or three men rushed from that bedroom, and made their escape down stairs, in front of his own bedroom door. A .cry of " robbers 1" was then raised by others members of the family, his brother joined him, and they went down stairs ; but the burglars had escaped, and they afterwerde found that their father had been shot dead, and that the door of a sitting-room down stairs had been opened, a leathern writing-case torn open, and 141. 10s. abstracted. The tab'e drawer in the father's bedroom containing 1001., a banker's receipt for 931. 10e. and a wa ch had not been dis turbed. The first thing in all these particulars, - when first related to the police, which excited re mark, was that out of s ) numerous a household James Henderson alone should have seen anything of the murderers. Several members of the family speak of hearing a shuffling of feet on the staircase, as if some persons had run down it, but the noise was not as if they had shoes on, or if they had, as if something was wrapped over the soles to deaden - the sound. The prisoner states that it was usual to keep a loaded doable-barrelled gun in his room after the annual cattle sales, when money might be supposed to be in the house, and yet it would ap pear that one of the outer doors had been left un • fastened—no appearance of a forcible entry being anywhere perceptible—or that such carelessness had been observed during the previous evening as to enable some of the murderers to conceal them selves in the house. Another point which natur ally excited attention was, that the prisoner, at' the time he kept a loaded gun in his bedroom to guard against robbers, should have left his leathern writ- Log-case, from which he says the burglars have ab stracted 141. 10a. of his money upon the table of t, he sitting-room, the door of which was left un fastened. Then it must be supposed that the dog heard no strange footsteps about the house, or he - would have given some alarm. These are all cir cumstancel compatible with the prisoner's inno cence, but they have no doubt had some weight with the police in putting him under restraint. But there are other circumstances which are of far greater importance, and which had naturally much weight in deciding the course to be taken. One of these is, that the small round shot •extracted from the head of deceased on a post mortern examination are of about the same size and description as those found in the plaster of the wall fired from the prisoner's gun. The papers used as wadding in both discharges were also not only found to correspond with each other, but with paper found in the prisoner's dressing-table drawer. For instance, in the dressing-table drawer have been found fur rages of a 12mo. cheap publication .headed " The Cot! age Girl, or the Marriage Day," =forming a sixth part of a sheet of dewy twelves. The first of these pages are numbered 1,185 and 1,186, and the other two are pages 1,199 and 1,200. On examining the wadding paper found on the bed of the murdered man one scrap is found among it forming the corner of page 1,198 of the same publication. The type is the same and there is enough letter-press on the scrap to identify it as part of the same tale which occupies page 1,199. Then the wadding of the gun-charge which took effect on the side of the window of 'the staircase, and which is said to have been fired by the pri soner at the murders, is in the bands of the police, and is easily identified as part of the same publica tion of the same tale. - These facts were in pos .session of the police on Wednesday evening, whee - the prisoner, who had been to Manche , ter that -day (after the murder) returned home, and Mr. .Superintendent Andrews, a ft er consulting Captain Smith, chief constable of the county police force, -and Mr. Little, deputy-constable, at once decided 'on taking him into -custody. Mr. Andrews told :him, on doing so, that ho was charged with the :murder of his father, and he replied Indeed, on - what grounds 1" Mr. Andrews told him that there -were very strong grounds of suspicion against him, :end that it would be necessary that he should he detained in custody until the facts were more fully :investigated. He mirk) no attempt, at resistance, tand was soon afterwards conveyed to the county teckups at Stockport, where he is still confined, Yesterday morning the prisoner was brought privately before Colonel Davenport, a magistrate of the county of Chester, at the lockups, and was re manded until Tuesday next. The inquest on the body of the - father was also opened yesterday (evening. but too late for a report to reach for this day's publication. It was understood, however, to to the intention of Mr.. Johnson, the coroner, to swear in a jury,—open the-proceedings, and allow them to view the body before interment, after which he would adjourn the inquest to next Tuesday. There is a good deal of speculation in the neigh bourhood as to what could have formed the motive for such an unnatural murder, supposing the suspicions against the prisoner to be welt-founded ; hut on this point very little has transpired, except that there had been a glod deal of hostility between the father and son owing to the latter having attempted to get Colonel Davenport, the lanilord, to transfer the farm from the father to hin t , and his constant interference with the management of it. POLICE INTtLLIGENCR—Oct. 1. MANSION-HOUSE.—John Franklin, 39, and William Kerp, 76, were brought up on remand, charged , with uttering a forged cheque for 2791., purporting to be signed by Judah Levy Yuly, with intent to defraud the Union Bank of London. In the previous examination evidence vas given by Michael Haydon the detective, to the effect that the prisoner Franklin was given into custody at the Union Bank, on Saturday last, for offering the . cheque for payment, when he said aad been given to him by the other prisoner, who was wait ing close, by, and whom he afterwards Fointed out to Haydon, who forthwith secured him also. Mr. A. J. Johnston, barrister, now appeared for the prosecution-; and Mr. Lewis, jun., for the pri soner Franklin, and Mr. Humphreys for Kerp. Mr. Johnston now said he intended to bring ad ditional evidence on this charge, and then go into a fresh charge against the prisoner Franklin, of ob taining a cheque-book from the Union Bank on Friday last by means of a forged order, sent by him through a boy whom h e me t i n th e street, and to whom he gave a shilling. • The forged cheque was taken from the book, and so the two charges became united. Kerp had refused to give his address, and on a future day he (Mr. Johnston) should be able to show, through the cabman into whose vehicle Kerp was taken, that Kerp and Franklin went to gether to the spot where the cab was called. Mr. Humphreys submitted that even if this were to be proved, there would still be nothing to support the testimony of the other prisoner against Kerp. The L'ird Mayor thought it suspicious that Kerp, if a respectable man, should refuse his address. Mr. Humphreys said his respectability might be the very reason, of his refusal. Thts Lord Mayor (to Mt. Johnston)—Have you the cabman here ? Mr. Johnston—l am sorry to say I have not. The Lord Mayor—Then I cannot remand Kerp upon the present evidence ; but I shall call upon him to enter upon recognisances to appear again. Mr. Lewis said he did not wish to oppose that course, but when the case for the prosecution was closed his client would be able to show, on the clearest e'Pidence, that he had been an innocent tool in the matter ; and be hoped, therefore, the privilege of bail would be extended to both pri soners. The Lord Mayor said he certainly should not admit Franklin to bail, nor yet Kerp, unless he gave his address. After some further conversation among the learned gentleinen engaged in the case, it was ar ranged that the prisoners should be further re manded, without any additional evidence being taken ; and they Were remanded accordingly. Thomas Knight, a - notorious thief, who has fre quently toen . in custody, and suffered various periods of imprisonment, was brought before Mr. Alderman Hale, charged with having stolen a gold watch under the following circumstances : Mr. Henry Lovelace Wa•son said—l am a clerk to a merchant, at 15, Mark-lane. A 1 ttle before 10 o'clock in the morning I was passing along Biehopsgate-street, when my attention was called to a crowd of persons surrounding a house that had fallen down. I was about to nags through the crowd, when all of a sudden I was pressed upon by the prisoner. I felt my watch snapped from My guard. I put my hand to my waistcoat, but not in time to secure the watch, which was gone, lam afraid, for ever. My guard was hang ing down. The prisoner was pre.Qsing very hard upon me at this time. I saw his hand go down from my side, and he passed something, which I feel convinced was my watch, to a mau behind him, who effected his escape. I was completely jammed up and prevented from moving for a few moments. I called out " police," and on the arrival of an officer I gave the prisoner into cus tody. . Cross-examined by Mr. Lewis—l did not see the prisoner before I was jammed. Thomas Mtrrett, constable No. 667—1 t-ok the prisoner' into custody. I have known him as a notorious thief the last two yeirs. He is one of the most expert and dangerous thieves to be found .in London. I searched him, but did not succeed in finding the prosecutor's watch. Partridge, the gaoler, was then examined, and said—l have known the , prisoner to be in mist uzly at this curt on previous occasions. He has suffered imprisonment at Holloway Gaol forpicki , g pockets. Mr. Lewis, jun., addre-sed the magitttrate, and contended that it had /IA been satisFautorily proved that it was the prisoner who robbed the prosecutor of his watch. The pr )bability was that somebody in front of the prosecutor was the thief, as it had been admittel that the prisoner was standing be hind him. Alderman Hale—l'm afraid you have got a very bad ease, Mr. Lewis. To the prisoner —You must be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for three months as a rogue and a vagabond. CLERKENWELL.—John Tyas, a pewterer, residing at No: 11, Baldwin-street, St. Luke's, ap peared before Mr. Tyrwhitt, in answer to a sum mons taken out by the Rev. Sidney Turner, in spector of reformatory schools, to show cause " why he did unlawfully neglect and refuse to pay, in pur suance of an order made, n that behalf, the sum of 2s. 6d. per week for the support and maintenance of Alfred 'Tyas, alias Taylor, a youthful offender detained in a 'reformatory school. The son of the defendant, although very young, has been nutnerous times in custody, but owing to his juvenile appearance the prosecutors failed to at tend, and he was consequQnt!ydischargecl. In addi tion to this he suffered two terms of imprisonment of three calendar months each for stealing lead, and also.three months cm suspicion. After that he was committed to the Middlesex Sessions, where he wai tried for a petty larceny, .and being found guilty, was sentenced to six weeks' imprisonment and hard labour, and then to be confined in a reformatory schoolf,r three years. Mr. Brennan the aqsistant to Mr. Turner, hid inquired i n t o th e defendant's means, and ascertained that he was well able t support the boy if he pleased, but he was constantly in the habit of getting drunk and neglecting his family. The defendant, who denied that he was able to support his boy, was sentenced by Mr. Tyrwhitt, in default of payment, to ten days' hard labour in the House of Correction. A pawnbroker of Islington, applie.l to 'his wor ship under the following circumstance. He said some time ago the wife of a cabman offere 1 him a valuable gold ring, set with three large brilllauts, and two rubies, in pledge for half-a crown. He detained the ring, and he now wished to know whether, if it should be applied for by the person offering it, he should be jusified in giving it up ? Mr. Tyrwhitt said he bad b .tter detain the ring some time longer, and in the meantime, perhaps, an application might be Made for it. Henry Duggan, a bookseller, of Abercrombie place, Hatton-garden, was charged, at the instance of Mr. Wemyss, super;ntendent of the Royal So ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with cruelly torturing a dog by beating it to death on an iron pump handle. It was proved by the evidence of three respect able persons living in the neighbourhood that Dug gan was seen, on the morning of the 23rd of Sep tember, to lay hold of a: small dog, and beat it for upwards of a quarter of an hour in the most brutal manner, scattering its brains about the street. The defendant was represented by Mr. Lewis, who brought a witness to prove that the dog had bit one of the defendant's children the day before, at which time the owner of the dog had agreed to have the animal destroyed if it was proved to have bitten the child. Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was the most revolting way of putting the animal to death, and he should fine him 10s. and costs, or 14 days' hard labour in the House of Correction. Mr. Wetnyss applied for the costs of his witnesses. Mr. Tyrwhitt said ho should not allow them. The pros.!cution was takeu up -by a public society, arid he ought not to allow them the co•its or ha the penalty, althoUgh it was provided for by an act of parliament. It might be all very well in the country districts, but he thought the society was ill-advised in doing so. • The fine and costs were paid. WORSHIP - STREET. —George Edwards, a journeyman butcher, in the employ of Mr. Fores bury, a Meat salesman, of Leadenhall-market, was charged before Mr. llamwill with violently assault ing a married worn in named Collins. The complainant, manifestly suffering from the injuries seen on her eyes, ea-, and mouth, stated, .in a feeble tone, that the defendant wag a cousin of her husband and entertsined an d!-feeling toward s them. Last evening, she answered a knock at the door, and he forced hiS way into the .passage, seized her by the hair with his left hand, then using disgnsting and threatening language, s t r u c k her repeated, blows. with his fist on the he'ad-nnd body, before her husband, who was in the rear of premises, could interfere fot her protection. So much ill-usage had she been subjected to that blood flowed in quantity from her left ear and mouth, in dependent of which it had occasioned her to mis carry. A - certificate from a surgeon named Edmunds, put in by Inspector Constal de, H division, fully corroborated the Complaint of the poor woman, who said her husband was in court attending to his duty as a police-constable. Collins, 49 H, then swore that at the time in question he was in the kitchen of his house pre paring for attendance at the station-house, when he heard screams, ran to the street door, and saw his wife as described by her ; he felt justified in using his staff, which fortunately was near at hand, upon the head of the assailant, and cut it open, as was now apparent. In answer to the charge, The accused said, with all apparent truthfulness, "Every word the good lady has spoken is utterly false." Mr. Hammill observed that he must remand the prisoner, as the asault could not possibly be under the circumstances immediately disposed of. WESTMINSTER.—Francis Bradley, a boy only 11 years of age, was charged with felony. Mr. James Graham, schoolmaster at the Park Chapel echbol, Park-street, Chelsea, said that during the, ast few weeks many books, some of them classical works, value 4 or ss. each, had been missed from the school. Every effort was made to detect the offender, but in vain, and it was at length determined to visit the' numerous second hand book shops in the neighbourhood, with a view of discovering the proper: y. At lengt h a great number of them were found at the shoo of John Harris, 2, Globe-street, King's-road, Chelsea, when it turned out that he had one at a time purchased them of the prisoner at 2d. a piece. Sergeant Brien of the B division pointed out the excellent condition and value of some of the books, and added that the very moment Harris purchased the books for the trifling amount stated he had marked some of them inside with his private mark of eighteen-pence. Harris himself having admitted the purchase, and the price as above described, both to the schoolmaster and to the magistrate, Mr. Paynter animadverted upon the man Harris's disgraceful conduct, in strong terms, and having pointed out the encouragment that bad been given to crime, said that if he were in the felons' dock by the side of the prisoner, he should feel it his duty to commit him for trial. Harris was immediately charged with feloniously receiv ng the property, and said that although the books might be very good ones, he often bought them as cheap at sales, and he had used no conceal ment in the matter. Both prisoners were committed for trial. Mr. Poynter consented to take bail fur Harris. LAMBETH.—.George Brown was charged with the embezzlement of divers sums of money paid to him on acc mnt of his master and employer, Mr. Samuel Nicholls, oilman, of No. 18, St. Mary's terrace Waliorth-road. It was stated that the prisoner was a carman, and was trusted with the delivery of goods to customers and with the receipts of moneys paid him on deli very. For the moneys so received it was the duty of the prisoner to account on his return every even ing. To a certain extent he did so, but it seemed that he was in the habit of altering the invoices and paying in to the cashier the amount a* which they stood when so altered. Thus he had altered one account from B. 13s. 61. to 1/. 3s. 61. ; another from lls. 6d. to 4s. 6d. ; and A third from lls. to 45., and had embezzled the difference. The apprehension of the prisoner bar' been so recent that the accounrs generally had not bee❑ suf fici.ntly examined, and as also the necessary wit nesses were not in attendance a remand was granted. SOITTH WA RIC —Frederick Hempstock, a boot maker's shopman, a married man with 5 children, and Caroline Hawes, a married woman, were brought before Mr. Burcham, on remand, charged in the first instance with having stolen a pair of boots and a pair of goloshes, the property of Wm. Linton, a bootmaker, at No. 8, Dockhead. The male prisoner was also charged by the parish au thorities of St. Olave's with deserting his wife and children, and by the Emigration Commissioners with unlawfully personating the husband of the fe male prisoner, with whom he was about to start for Australia. On Wednesday week the prisoners were apprehended just as they wera about to get into a carriage of an emigration train at the Pad dington Station. Evidence was first taken as to certain boots and goloshes found in the prisoner's possession, but Mr. Burcham considered the evidence insufficient to pr.ye that they had been stolen, and discharged the prisoners on that head. The fens de prisoner was subsequent ly discharged altogether, but Hemp stock was sentenced to three months' hard labour, for de•Trting his wif e an d c hild ren ; and Captain M‘Lean the Government emigration inspector, who was in attendance, expressed his intention of proceeding against him under the Rnigratiou Oct-, on the last charge at the 'expiration of his imprison ment. William Galloway, a milkman, of 74, Kent street, was charged with having the carcase of a deceased bullock. prepared for sate as human food, and fined 31., and 19s. costs. LOCAL SHARI? MARICBT4.

IRELAND. DUBLIN, OCT. 1. GREAT FLOODS IN CORK. The Cork papers received this morning state that on Tuesday a strong gale blew from the southward, and towards evening rain fell in torrents, and so ontitined during the greater part of the night. Towards the west the rain mu-t have begun earlier, 'as ou Wednesday morning the-river was swollen to a huge extent, and was - rushing through the town with the rapidly of a torrent, bearing evidences of is rage, in broken trees, spars, and other wreck. Up along the banks of the river we understand very serious damage has been done. Stacks of bay fro n the meadows and of corn from the stubble- fields have been carried off by the flow of the water, and iu many places the surface has been materially injured. At Bandon there was a serious inundation, by which a great deal of damage to property has been done. The flood did not take place in the main river which, runs through the town, but in a small branch called the Shane gool, which overflowed its banks this morning, burst open a small bridge by which it is spanned, and rushed down the South Main-street with such force that several shop fronts in that locality were torn away. A second edition of last night's Cork Examiner, contains the following particulars of the effect of the floods in Bandon and the neighbourhood "A very serious calamity has befallen the town 'of Bandon, involving considerabl e destruction of property and the less of a single life. During the whole of the evening of yesterday and through the night the rain fell in such torrents that between 2 and 3 o'clock this morning a small stream, which comes down from the mountainous Cashel district, by Mayfield, and thence into the south side of Bandon, became swollen beyond its usual dimen sions. The little bridge near the old chapel was inadequate to afford a passage for the immense body of water, which, in consequence, overflowed and rushed through the streets of the town, first flooding the distillery of Mr. Fitzgerald and the brewery of Messrs. Hurley, which are in the neigh bourhood. The force of the water soon became so groat that a.m.b.hilrl a small bridge called Ca vendish Quey Bridge, which in its fall considerably damaged the house and tanyard of Mr. Lee, situated clesed by its abutment. Its destruction, however, involved a much snore melancholy result, as there is but too much r , a.on to suppose that a poor man, a watchman, named Thomas Kelly, whe has since been toss-ing, was on the bridge at the moment of its fall, and was engulfed in the rush ing water. The poor fellok's dog was afterwards discovered running about the spot, and vainly barking after his lost master. A little bridge, which crosses the stream just at its junction with the main river, and leads into the Presbyterian meeting-house, was also destroyed, but without any such melancholy accompaniment. Damages of anether kind and to a very serious extent was also inflicted after a different fashion upon the town. The little angry river runs through a back street parallel to, and at the rear of the South Main street. The confined water rushing through the back of the houses escaped through the fronts, carrying off with it in many instances the whole of the shop windows, d , ors, &c. Among the chief sufferers was Mr. William Bullen, the whole of the front of whose shop was swept away. Curiously enough, a box containing money, it is said to the amount of 2801., was sent floating about, but was recovered by Head-Constable Wright. Mr. Beamish, dyer, suffered in a similar Manner, a large quantity of indigo used in his manu factureslending to the water that deluged theneigh birhood an azure tint at his expense. Among the other parties injured were Mr. B. Hayes, Mr. Roche, Mr. Crowley, Mr. Moriarty, and a large number that I cannot enumerate. As may be sup posed, great alarm was felt, but a large party of police under the command of Head Constable Wright, was soon on the spot and using every ex ertion to save property and life. Mr. H. Hassett, J. P„ who was also present, by his presence of mind. and energy gave much valuable assistance. A body has been found at Collier's-quay, and though not yet i 'edified is supposed to be that of the unfortu nate watchman. The damage that has been done is not, I regret to say, confined to the town, no less than three other bridges having beep destroyed, one'at Ballyminahene, one at Ballinacurra (near Bendon), and another at a place called Doundaniel. An immensity of damage has been done to the mailcoach-road, the parapet wall of the little river being carried away in many parts, and the road in some portions so cut up that it is scarcely an exag geration to say it seems torn up by an earthquake. Of course it is as yet impossible to firm anything like a correct money estimate of the damage done, but undoubtedly it will be found to be very large. The river Bencbin is sill greatly swollen and rushes along by the railway in tremendous volume, flood ing the meadows at each side, but no further in jury is anticipated. The extent to which the inun dation has reached has become very serious. Eight am a of oats belonging. to Mr. Townsend of Wood s'de, were completely swept away. At different imes during the day a cow, a pig, A donkey, a butt . and various other heavy ar int es, proving th e enor mous force of th e fl oo d, , have been Caen floating down (he river. The body of a woman, too, has been found - , hut not yet identified. It is supposed she was surprised by the flood and drowned. As yet we have not been able to ascertain any further particulars, but we have learnt enough to lead us to believe that the la , e rains have produced far greater - damage throughout this locality than we at first anticipated."
