COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Hoiroyd.) IN RE ROBINSON AND HIDE. These bankrupts were described as of Paddington, timber merchants, and to-day was appointed for their last examination. Mr. Lucas appeared for the bankrupts, and asked for an adjournment. He said that the bankrupts had in the first instance placed their books, &c., in the hands of Mr. Howell, an accountant, to prepare a statement to be laid before their auditors, and after the bankruptcy he claimed a lien on the books, so that Mr. Maynard, who was then engaged to prepare the accounts for this court, was delayed in their preparation, and ultimately, and just previously to the meeting for the last examination, he found that the accounts prepared by Mr. Howell could not be borne out by vouchers, and therefore be declined filing the balance-sheet he prepared cn the faith that the items could be vouched. He had, therefore, to prepare a fresh balance, showing the true state of their affairs instead of a fictitious statement. The bankrupts were anxious to avoid the stigma of an adjournment sine die, and were willing to pay the expense of another adjournment. His Hoaour said there could be no objection to that course, and an adjournment was taken for six weeks. IN RE HARRISON. This bankrupt was a corn-dealer at Epsom, and came up and passed on accounts prepared by Messrs. Paul and Turner. The debts are 1,682/. To creditors holding security, 1,5771. Creditors—good debts, 641.; doubtful, 1521.; property in the hands of creditors, 1,6001. IN 1111 BATAGH. The bankrupt was described as of Winchester, seeds man, &c., and proprietor of the Botanical Gardens and Promenade, &c., and came up to-day on accounts pre pared by Messrs. Paul and Turner. The debts to unse cured creditors are 1,261/. ; ditto holding securities, 1,1501. ; surplus, May 1856, 7441. Cr.: good debts, 1011.; property, 8501.; ditto in bands of creditors, 1,5211. The bankrupt passed. CITY SHERIFF'S COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) GOOD NEWS lOR SUITORS IN THIS COURT. In a case in which Mr. Dodd appeared for the plaintiff, hat gentleman applied for an immediate order, but his Honour recommended instalments. Mr. Dodd—l think, your Honour, the plaintiff is the beet judge. His Honour—No, indeed, I do not. I find that where I interfere the money generally comes in. Mr. Dodd—l find, on the contrary, that where instal mentary payments are ordered, after the first payment r o more are tendered. Basideg, I think the matter may well be left to the plaintiff and late advontte, and I think the judge's interference never does any good. His Honour—On the contrary, again—(laughter)—l find our Court 50 per cent. better than other Coarts ; and lam sure I interfered enough. (Roars of laughter.) I always recommend instalments, and we are very suc cessful in getting tise money. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DRUNKENNESS AND ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. - Eliza Francis, a poor, miserable-looking, middle-aged woman, was placed at the bar before Mr. Beadon, charged with attempting to commit suicide by throwing herself into the Serpentine River, Hyde-park. It appeared from the evidence of a carpenter named James Powley, that on the previous evening, about half past five o'clock, he was crossing Hyde -park, and when near the statue of Achilles he heard cries of " Help, help I" proceed from the banks of the Serpentine. He ran towards the spot as fast as he could, when he met two youths, who begged of him to hasten, as a woman was in the river, drowning. He immediately pulled off his coat and waistcoat, and seeing a dark object at some distance in the water, he swam towards it, and after a little time succeeded in dragging out the body of the woman at the bar in a perfectly insensible state. He then, with assistance, conveyed her to the receivi,g house, where the usual remedies were applied, and after a considerable time had elapsed she was sufficiently re covered to be removed by the police to the workhouse. Mr. Beadon asked the prisoner the cause of her at tempting such a rash act The prisoner said it was distress and the cruelty of her husband, who had turned her out of her home, and refused to allow her a single penny towards her support. Mr. Beadon was afraid that there was something more behind the scenes, which the prisoner did net think proper to describe. A. respectable man here stepped forward, and said he was requested by the prisoner's husband, who was an intimate friend of his, to attend before his worship and explain matters. The prisoner, who had been repeat edly charged at Maryleboue Police-court for a similar offence, was a most inveterate drunkard. She had a good home and a kind husband, whose happiness she had completely destroyed. She left him for other men no less than three times, and each time he had forgiven her, on the promise of her reforming, but all to no pur pose. At last he made arrangements to allow her 10s, per week, provided she kept away from him. She, however, no sooner got hold of the money than she spent it in drink, and when all was gone she attempted her life. Mr. Beadon said it was a most melancholy case, and he hardly knew how to deal with such a woman. He would, however, remand her to House of Correction for a week, and direct her to be placed under the spiritual care of the chaplain of the prison, who no doubt would impress upon her mind the wickedness of attempting her life. WESTMINSTER. LI.ENSED VICTUALLERS' Luc—James Meredith and John Maguire were charged, before Mr. Paynter, with creating a disturbance at the Cock Public-house, North street, Chelsea. Mr. James Fitzgerald, licensed victualler, and the proprietor of the house, said that shortly after 12 o'clock this morning the prisoners came to his house and asked him for some beer. Kooroing them to be the associates of bad characters who infest the .neighborhood he re• fused to serve them, and he was the more desirous of doing ao as a female of loose character, who was not sober, came in immediately after an,l joined them. Mr. Paynter—Were the prisoners sober ? Prosecutor—Th ey were, sir. Upon my refusing to serve them one of them took a glass from the counter and dropped it, when it broke to pieces. Mr. Paynter —Do yon think it was done wilfully 1 Prosecutor—l have no doubt of it, bat Ido not know which of the two broke it. They became so disorderly, and their language was so very bad that I was compelled to send for a constable to take them into custody. Police-constable B 239, said, that he upon reaching the house found it in a state of complete uproar, in consequence of the conduct of the prisoners, and there were several respectable tradesmen in front of the bar and in the parlour. As they would not be quiet he was obliged to take them into custody. to Mr. Paynter told th e prosecutor t h a t h e wa s bound serve all persons them se l ves proper l y. Pr persons applying f or refreshment so long theyas conducte dosecutor—l am told by the police that I was liable to be summoned if I served convicted thieves. Inspector Cumming—The house is watched by the police, and I know the prosecutor has a deal of trouble in keeping out bad characters. Mr. Paynter—But you never told him not to give re freshment to convicted thieves if they behaved them selves. Inspector Cumming-IT,, sir. The prisoners were held to bail in their own recoils nisances to keep the peace. THAMES. BOLD ROBBERIES JY A. MAN AND HIS WlFE.—Samuel Lucas, aged 34, and Eleanor Lucas, his wife, aged 30, late of No. 7, Horsley - buildings, Lady Lake's Grove, Stepney, were charged with stealing an easy chair of large dimensions, and value 41., from the shop of Mr. Willomatt, furniture dealer in the Whitechapel-road, and a washing table and stand worth 31. from the shop of Mr. Archdeacon, in the Mile -end -road. It appeared that the two furniture dealers missed the easy chair and the washing table and stand from outside their shops where they were exposed for sale on the saints afternoon. Directly after the easy chair was stolen the female prisoner took it to the house of a neigh bour named Richar d Ward, a shoemaker, in Horde 1 y-p RON andliOyardefrom Mr. Willomatt'e premises, and said she was going to take c are of the chai r fora friend whose goods had been seized, and she prticularly requested pawnbroker'sought the sh e o a p e r;na n n b , air into Ward not to damage th e chair. On the same day the male prisoner carried the chair out of the house, and it was conveyed to the sh o p of Mr. John Ashbridge, pawnbroker, in the M ile end-road, a nd pawned for 12s. John en t f could not y the shop, but he identifie d the female prisoner, who bor rowed a loan of 12e. upon it, and he gav e h er th e dupli cateand money. The washing-stand an d ta b le, stolen from Mr. Archdeacon's premises, was brought by the male prisoner to Ward's house in hie absence, and it was seized by the police before the privonerscoadispose of it. There had been numerous similar robberies at the shops of furniture dealers who expose goods in part of their premises. The female prisoner was in custody a short time ago at the Worship-stieet Police -court, for stealing a bed from an upholsterer's shop, and was dis charged, because nothing was then known about her, It was now stated by Police-sergeant Smith, No. 28 K, that the male prisoner was a shoemaker, and that both man and wife were a lazy, dissolute, and dishonest couple, who would not work, and had been in the prac tice of stealing anything they could lay their hands on. They were suspected of stealing a large mahogany table from the front of another furniture dealer's shop, and they had been Been dealing with one similar to that lost. The depositions were formerly taken by Mr. Pyer, the chief-clerk, and the prisoners were committed for trial.

MACKAY, " BAILIE NICOL JARVIB. —The funeral of this respected gentleman took place from his house on Friday, at two o'clock in the after noon. The large attendance of friends bore testimony to the esteem in which the deceased was so deservedly held, and many a kindly memory mingled with their regrets for the good old roan as they laid him down to his rest in the Calton Burying-ground—not very far from the scenes where, as the actor, he had passed the brightest hours of his life's day. There is often something peculiarly sad in the death of a great actor, so little have we been accustomed to associate with him, or with such a life as his, any thoughts of the grave and its stern realities. But in this instance there is only a natural feeling of regret, for our friend had long ago put off the motley, and at peace with Heaven and with all men, passed calmly away. He was an actor the like of whom we may never hope again to see—a delightful companion, a just friend, and a sincere Christian.—Edinburgh Expres. BEAU BROMMELL —Durin 4 the height of his prosperity I remember him coming in one night after the op rA to Watier'e, and finding the Minos table full, one plena at which was occupied by Tom Sheridan, who was never in the habit of playing, but having dined freely had dropped into the club, and was trying to catch the smiles of for tune by risking a few pounds which he could ill afford to lose. Brummell proposed to him to give up his place, and go shares in his deal ; and, adding to the 101. in counters which Tom had before him, 2001. for himself, took the cards. He dealt with his usual success, and in less than ten minutes won 1,500/. He then stopped, made a fair divi.inn, and, giving 7501. to Sheridan, said to him, "There, Tom, go home and give your wife end brats a supper, and never play again." I mention the anecdote as characteristic of the times, the set, and a spirit of liberality in Brummell, which with all his faults he possessed, and which was shows towards an old friend in a way that left no pretext for refusal. —Raikes' Jour nal THB LAWYER'S CONFIDENT.—One of the most in- timate friends I have ever had in the world was Dick Danby, who kept a hairdresser's shop under the cloisters in the Inner Temple. I first made his acquaint ance from his assisting me, when a etudent at 1 AW ' to engage a sot of chambers; he after wards out my hair, made my Bar wigs, and assisted me at all times with his valuable advice. He was on the sarnogood terms with roost of my forensic contemporaries. Tbus he became master of all the news of the profession ; and he could tell who were getting on and who were without a brief—who succeeded by their talents, and who hugged the attorneys—who were desirous of becoming pnisnejudges, and who meant to try their fortune in Parliament—which of the chiefs was in a failing state of health, and who was next to be promoted to the collar of SS. Poor fellow I he died suddenly, and his death threw a universal gloom over Westminster-hall—unrelieved by the thought that the survivors who mourned him might pick up some of his business—a consolation which wonderfully softens the grief felt for the loss of a favourite Nisi Prius letter.— Campbell's Lives of the Chief Justices. AMERICAN VIEW Os' INDIAN AFFAIRS.-- AS we have constantly maintained since the outbreak of the dis turbances at Meerut, so we now repeat—England is contending with a mutinous army, and with a mutinous army oily, and if she be not utterly recreant to all the traditions of her national history it is impossible that she should not come out of the contest victorious over all her enemies, whether in one, iu two, or in all the presidencies of India. Blundering imbecility may, how ever, aggravate, as it has already aggravated, the diffi culties of the task, but it must and will be achieved. As Damiens said of that dreadful day of doom which was to witness his own death by tortures which are the eternal disgrace of the French monarchy, "La journey sera longue, triaiB elle finira," so may it be said of the trial which awaits Great Britain in the East the day be long, but it must come to an end—and it is irrational to expect of that end anything but the re-establishment of British autho rity upon a basis of broader justice to India and to England alike, and under the conditions of a sounder policy than has ever ruled the relations of these coun tries in the past ; for it is an immense though a very common mistake to suppose that the Indian empire of England has in times past been of essential importance to the prosperity of the metropolis. It is for the pro spective rather than for the actual value of her Imperial sway over the Hindoo millions that Esgland is now con tending. It is in the cause of the world's commerce yet to be, as well as of the interests of Christianity and of civilisation, that the baronets of the "gallant Tip perary" and the broadswords of the Highlanders are making sharp for the battle in Bengal and Oude. If India were to be released by England, then it is clear that the world at large would be simply the loser by so much more gold and silver as would be poured into India in consequence of the diminution and decay of the gradually growing demand for foreign goods which the rule of English civilisation alone has created and fostered ; and the commercial interests, as well as the religious and moral convictions of Christendom, are there fore quite as deeply involved as are any imaginary necessities of Great Britain in particular in the triumph of her armies over the disloyal and fanatical hordes of their enemies. Mahomedan India becomes a second China, controlling, however, the supply of staples much more essential to modern commerce than the silks and teas of the Celestial Empire. British India promises to become a regular and legitimate member of the family of nations. Annihilate the rule of England 1 in India at this hour, and, save in Eastern elements of national prestige, the British empire would be to no positively appreciable extent a serious loser in power or in wealth. Reinforce British authority firmly in India, and the millions of Hindostan, multiplying their wants with their numbers under the wholesome influences of civilisation, will eventually cease to be the " sink of specie," and enter the markets of the world as buyers on terms of equality with the rest of mankind.—New Yorls Times.

CONSOLATION. —A miserly old farmer, who bad lost one of his best hands in the midst of bay-making re marked to the sexton, as be was filling up the poor fellow's grave, " It is a sad thing to lose a good mower at a t i m e like this ; but, after all, poor Tom was a dreadful great eater." AMERICAN SYMPATHY WITH ENGLAND. We are in the midst of a terrible convulsion. Our business interests are threatened with utter ruin, and our working classes already feel the pres sure of want. The darkness thickens, and no eye can see the end of the accumulating trouble. But, gloomy as we find the position of our affairs, they are sunny and cheerful compared with those of our mother-land. Here we already know the worst of the calamity that has come upon the country. There the clouds are still gatherinc, and they must expect two storms t o b urs t upon' them at once— each sufficient to try most severely the fortitude of any nation, and calculated to crush many beyond recovery. The winds from the East, where, not many months ago, England commanded the hom age of a vast and wealthy empire, come laden with the shrieks and groans of her slaughtered sons and outraged daughters, and even above these sounds of expiring misery are heard the imploring accents of little bands of heroes who are fighti ng aga i nst tremendous odds of ferocious mutineers, and bravely upholding their standard, though almost exhausted in the struggle. The little island is being drained of every hand that can bo spared from the fac tory or the field. There is scarcely a family in the realm which has not contributed an arm for the fearful battle, and scarcely a fireside that does not miss a familiar face now absent in that tropi c land of blood and horror, or hurrying to the point where England needs most desperate strokes. The, strain upon the energies of our ancestral people is mighty ; yet they bear it with an iron determination peculiar to a race born to conquer and command. They not only display no shrinking from the con flict, but dare to talk of their ultimate triumph as certain, and plan the punishment of those who have roused the lion's vengeful ire. Even whil e the struggle with the mutineers is most disastrous in its aspect this brave nation prosecutes a war against the millions of China, and. maintains the supremacy of its flag in every portion of the globe. Their morning drum-beat does not cease to follow the sun around the earth. But it is plain that this test of British courage and strength is ow; of the severest ever yet opplied, and it is evert confessed that at tho present hour their power in the East trembles upon the verge of annihilation —that Asia seems slowly slipping from their grasp. Just about the time that the news of further Indian disasters will reach England, a steamer will arrive at Liver pool from New York burdened with intelligence that will send a fearful thrill through the heart of the kingdom. This people, who already have two great wars upon their hands, will learn that the financial panic in this country has proved more thoroughly destructive than they had any reason to autici pate ; that the debts due them in the United States cannot be paid, and that, instead of sending them gold, we are looking to them for a supply to relieve our distress. Each succeeding steamer will convey to them additional news of disaster, and, it is almost needless to say, will set in motion additional ' trains of ruin and misery among them. The great manufacturing towns, crowded with operatives, will be swept as with the breath of pestileace, and all the horrors of extreme poverty we may behold around us will be as nothing compared with what will be experienced in those industrial cities, where labourers aro never blessed with extra wages, and where there are no resources such as we find in the great natural wealth of our country to fall back upon to recuperoae. A kingdom which even iu the mostprosperons times has its millions of paupers must at a period of distress following a financial convulsion exhibit such a mass of misery as will ap pal the heart, sicken the soul, and dim the eye of humanity. Not only will this suffering of the gieit working population make the strongest appeals to the charity of those who are untoueh:al by the storm, but it will probably lead to tumult and violence, thiaarenitig the very existence of the Government. The English are a conservative people, and disposed to be loyal and devoted to the powers that be. But the desperation cf the poor drives them to acts of unthinking indiscrimi nate fury, and they care not how they direct their rage to crush and destroy. Here is the home trouble which now combines wish the bloody struggle in the East to darken the sky of Britain as it has seldom been darkened before. Lot us trust that her energy and fortitude are sufficient to bear her through the double tempest. Again, we say, while we are lameuting over our own gloomy situation, let us not forget the straits in which our mother land is placed, and let us learn from hor a lesson of patience and resolution which will render us truly a heroic peoplo.—Philadelphia Evening Journo.l. WORDS WORM. ON POETRY. (From Professor Wilson's Works.) Of all poets that ever lived Wordsworth has been at once the most truthful and the most idealising ; external nature from him has received a soul, and becomes our teacher ; while be has so filled our minds with images from her, that every mood finds some affinities there, and thus we all hang for sustenance and delight on the 1. , w0m of our mighty mother. We believo that there are many who have an eye for nature and even a sense of the beautiful without any very profound feeling ; and to them Wordsworth's finest descriptivepassiges scent often languid or diffuse, and not to present to their eyes any distinct picture. Perhaps sometimes this ob jection may be just; but to paint the eyo is easier than to the imagination—and Wordsworth, taking it for granted that people can now see and hear, desires to make them feel and understand. Of his pupil it must not be said— " A primrose by the river's brim A yellow primrose is to him, And it is nothing more ;" the poet gives the something more till we start at the disclosure as at a lovely apparition—yet an ap parition of beauty till that moment seemed to us but an ordinary bunch of leaves. In these lines is a humbler example of how rzcondite may be the spirit of beauty iu any the most familiar thing be longing to the kingdom of nature ; one higher far —but of the same kind—is couched in two immortal verses— "To me the humblest flower that blows can give Thoughts that too often lie too deep for tears." In what would the poet differ from the worthy man of prose if his imagination possessed not a beautify ing and transmuting power over the object 3 of the inanimate world 1 Nay, oven the naked truth itself is seen clearly but by poetic eyes ; and were a Bumph all at once to become a poet, he would all at once become stark-staring mad. Yonder ass licking his lips at a thistle, sees but water for him to drink in Windermere a-glow with the golden lights of setting suns. The ostler or the boots at Lowood, inn takes a somewhat higher flight, and for a moment, paus ing with currie-comb or blacking brush in his sus pended hand, calls on Sally the chambermaid for gra cious sake to look at Pull-wyke. The waiter, who has cultivated his taste from conversation with. Lakers,learns their phraseology, and declares the sun set to be exceedingly handsome. The Laker, who sometimes has a soul, feels it rise within him as the rim of the orb disappears in the glow of softened fire. The artist compliments nature by likening her evening glories to a picture of Claude Lorraine —while the poet feels the sense sublime " Of something far more deeply interfused, Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns, And the round ocean and the living air, And the blue sky, and in the mind of man; A motion and a spirit that impels All thinking things, all objects of all thought, And rolls through all things." THE OUTWARD BRAZIL AND RIVER PLATE MAIL. — The Royal Mail Company's steam-ship Medway, Capt. J. Hammack, left Southampton yesterday with the monthly mails for the Brazils and River Plate, 134 passengers (among whom are Count Bellinghansen, B. Oliveira, Eq., &c.), a full cargo, specie of the value of 71,1331., and jeweltery to the amount of 42,0001. IRRIGATION (AP SEWAGE.—Dr. Southwood Smith, Professor Way, and Mr. H. Austin, of the General Board of Health, have gone as a deputation to Milan to inspect works of irrigation there, with a view to the important question of the application of sewage to agricultural purposes, in connection with tl'e great metropolitan sewage problem in particular, and the utilisation of the sewage of towns in general. SOME DISTINCTIONS OF CASTES.—To the Brahmins all animal food, save that of fishes and kids, is forbidden ; yet in some districts they will readily partake of the flesh of any animal whatever, if only, as in the case of other Hindoos, it be not killed with their own hand. The Rajpoots eat fish, mutton, and venison ; fowls, beef, and pork are held in abomination. Many castes follow the same rules. With some, however, pork is the fav ourite diet, beef only is prohibited. Those who . shrink from the pollutio n o f e ating the flesh of domestic poul try will eagerly devour that of the jungle fowl, which differs from the game cock only in size. All Hindoos consider themselves defiled by contact only with feathers ; among the tribes at the foot of the Himalayas, who are in other respects strict Hindoos, this prejudice does not exist. An earthen pot is polluted beyond redemption by being touched by one of an inferior caste ; a int tal one suffers no such deterioration. Coolies will carry any load, however offensive, upon th e i r h ea d s ; bid them carry a man for a few paces, and, though it be a matter of life and death, they will answer you that it is the business of another caste. The Rohillas will sub mit to be flogged within an inch of their lives with a leathern martingale, but to be struck with a whip or cane would be ten indelible di sgrace, and very likely to be resented with a bullet or a sta b . Spirituous liquors ° are in general allowed on l y to Pariahs. In some• arts of Southern India the Brahmins partake o f them with out scruple. A mong t h e Nairs of alalaJar the women enjoy a plurality of husbands. Among the Tetiyare on the same coast, th ose within the degrees of cons angunity' possess their wives in common. Many castes are only to be known from one another by thecnt and colour of their clothes, the shape and arrangement of their tria lkets, or some other equally fiivoloue and unimportant • distinction,--iminu on Caste.
