IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(YESTERDAY.) The SPEAMtiI, took the chair at twelve o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. Campbell's Divorce bill was read a second time GIUSTINIA.NI'S OATH BILL. Mr. MONSELL moved that in the case of Giusti tkiani'a Oath bill, the standing orders be suspended in order that. the bill might be read a first and second time and then referred to a select committee. The hon. member explained that the bill was in effect to naturalize the Princess Giustiniani, and to enable the noble lady to take the necessary oaths before her Maj,-sty's Minister at Florence instead of before the House of Lords. The standing orders were suspended, and the bill was read a first and second time, and was referred to a select committee. PETITIONS. Petitions were presented in favour of an alteration of the oath taken by members of Parliament ; in favour of the Industrial Schools Bill ; and in favour of an altera tion of the Superannuation Act. REGISTRATION OF LONG LEASES (SCOT- LAND) BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. The preamble was postponed. On clause 1, Mr. DUNLOP explained the nature of certain amend ments which he meant to propose. The LORD ADVOCATE said he had been waited on by the Faculty of Advocates, to oppose the bill, but he felt he could not comply with the request of the deputa tion, as he felt the present bill was one calculated to con fer great good. lie did not entertain the same fears with re pact to this hill as these learned gentlemen, and therefore he should give it his cordial support. The eanse was then agreed to. The remaining clauses, in which a few verbal amend ments were made, were agreed to, and the bi'l was re• ported with amendments. LEAVE OF ABSENCE. Leave of absence was granted to Mr. Shirley and Captain J. C. Vivian, on account of illness and domestic offitction. INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. The preamble was postponed. On clause 2 Mr. GREGORY moved an amendment in the clause, which was to enable Justices of the Peace to obtain evidence as to the religion of a child. He proposed t.) insert in line 16, after the word child, " or in case of an' orphan, then the guardians or nearcst adult relative," to the clause. The amendment was withdrawn, and the clause was agreed to. Clauses 3 and 4 were agreed to. On clause 5, Sir G. GREY drew the attention of the hon. member (Mr. Adderl-ly) to this clause, which empowered the magistrates, on a child being taken into custody for beg ging and vagrancy, to send him or her to prison for 7 days without any proof that an offence had been com mitted. He objected to giving the power of remand to a magistrate without it was clearly proved that the law bad been transgressed. Mr ADDERLEY proposed an amendment. Lord E. HOWARD thought that some provision ought' to be introduced to prevent the child of a poor man being sent to a reformatory, and there detained. It would be extremely hard., supposingthe parents of the child were about to emigrate, that they should leave the coun4ry without the whole of their-children. Sir G. GREY said the clause gave the magistrates power to order the child to be given up to its parents on satiAactory proof being given that they were about to emigrate. After a few words from Mr. MOORE, The clause, as amended, was agreed to. Oa the pie•tion that it stand part of the bill, Mr. DE V ERE objected strongly to the clause.. By it every child found begging was subject to penal punishment. Mr. ADDERLEY said the hon. gentleman who had just sat down was under a misconception with respect to the of of the bill. It was not a penal measure; but one to provide tutelage and protection to them. Instead of the measure being a very harsh one, it was, on the contrary, one of great kindness.. Mr. BUXTON said, if the-act : was one of kindness to that chill it efts quite the opposite to parents of the children. By its provisions a ,child, who for the first time might solicit charity, was liable to be taken into custody by the police, and, supposing it was under 12 years of age, sent to one of the Itklustrial Institutions for .seven years. Sir,G. GREY said street begging was one of the greatest nuisances that at present existed. If the prin cipl,s of the hon. gentleman who hart list addressed the honse were adopted, the police would have to look on quietly and allow crime to be committed. After a short discussion in which Mr. Briscoe, Mr. Maguire, Mr. Liddell, and other members took part,, Mr. DUNLOP said he did not think the clause was oppressive or unjust. It *as open to the parents of the child taken into custody and committed to one of these institutions, on giving security to the amount of 204. that the offence of begging would not be repeated, to have the child restored to them. Mr. HACKBLOCK suggested that the words "being • well-known beggar or vagrant," should be added t. the bill. Mr. BAINES—The numerous objections that bad been urged against this clause convinced him that it was necessary to give this clause further consideration. The object of the bill was good, and it was the duty of the house to make it as perf:ct as possible. Ile suggested that the clause should be postponed. Mr. HENLEY objected to the clause, Ur. ADDERLEY said he should have no objection to alter the clause to meet the 'views of hon. tneuity,rs. 7 After a short discussion, the clause' was negatived. Cause 6 was then proposed. Mr. MILES moved the omigsion of the douse. Mr. HENLEY said, as clause 5, which contained the pith of the bi 1, had been struck out, he thought the best course to pursue' was for the chairman to report progress. Mr. ADDERLEY denied that eause 5 was the prin cipal one in the bill. The measure would stand very well without it. If it was the intention of the hon. membe r to oppose the bill, he had better plainly state his intention of doing so. If the chairman was to report progress would be impossible to pass the Measure this•session, and such being the case he should Oro up the bill Alt rgether. Mr. MILES said he thought it would be very unfair towards the hon. gentleman (Mr. Adderley), who had taken a great deal of trouble with this bill, if he was prevented from proceeding with it. Sir G. GREY suggested that the 6th clause should be struek nut, and that the question to what chil lien the bill applied should be decided in clause 7. The clause was struck out. On clause 7 . bring proposed, Mr. BA.RR.OW said this clause required a certain se curity to be given by the parent of the chid on its being taken from one of these institutions. He thought there was no'advantage\in such an arrangement. If the ma gistrate was satimfi.-A with the assurance of the parent that the chill was - not a habitual beggar, he thought be ought to have the power of ordering its immediate dis charge without requiring the parent to enter into re- Cognisances to the amount of twenty shillings. He moved the insertion of words giving to the magistrates the power at once to di-charge a child without security if they should think fit. Mr. BOWYER objected to the clause al'ogether. Mr. COGAN suggested, as it appeared impossible to gat on with the bill, the chairman do report progress. Mr. BOWYER said if they insisted on passing this clause be should like to know how poor working men, who earned Bs. or 9s. a week, and whose furniture would not,produce 20s. if it was sold, were to pay a pound, ■upposing one of their chil lien without their knowledge got into trouble, and was taken before the magistrate. The amendment was agreed to without a division. Mr. HENLEY moved the omission from the dims of all words relative to the parents giving the required surety of 204. After a few words from Lird Loviasz and Mr. BLAND, the proposition of the hon. member for Oxford shire was adopted. Mr. Sergeant O'BRIEN said as the alteration in volved the introduction of a new principle of law he should move the omission of the clause. Mr. DEASY moved an amendment limiting the time to wh:ch a child might be sent to one of these indtutrial institutions to two ears instead of seven. Mr. ADDERLEY strongly objected to the amend- Mr. BOWYER moved that the chairman report pro gress, as the committee had struck out the most impor. tint clanee is the bill. Sergeant O'BRIEN said the best course for the hon. member for Staffordshire to pursue was to strike out clause 7, and bring . tip a new clause in place on the reception the rep ort. The motion for reporting progress was then with drawn.

M. GREGORY moved that tho'addition of the fol. lowing words to the clause :—" Provided, however, it witlihr the county' where the child was taken into cue. trody, or any adjlining county, there shall he any cer tiffed Triduorial chool - conducted on the principles of the" .religions persuasion to which the parent of the child in 'the,epinion of the justices shall belong, and the matiagers .of such school shall be willing to receive him, such child t ihalltb.e sent.to_ such lAst-rnentioned school,' and not to any other." • -:, • • • , Mr. ADDERLEY said he had .tro: objection to the :arneikiatertt.• = -- , _ . The amendment was agreed to. • • Mr. HENLEY moved at the end of the proviso words to the effect that a child should only be sent to an indus• riLE SUN, LONDON, trial school within the county, or adjoining county to which its parents belonged. Mr. ADDERLEY opposed the addition of the wording. The committee then divided upon Mr. Henley's amendment, when there appeared— For the amendment . Against it . Majority —l4s After a few words from Mr. RIDLEY and Mr. SLA.NEY, the clause, as amended, was agreed to. Clause 8 was postponed. Clause 9 was then proposed. Mr. BOWYER moved that the Chairman report progress. For the motion Against it Majority -176 Mr. HENLEY moved an amendment to clause 9. If a parent should desire to have his child removed from a school on religious grounds be should not be called upon to pay the expenses. The alteration of the hon. member was to relieve parents under such circumstances from the payment of the expenses. The amendment was agreed to. Mr. BO VVYER was about to move another amend. ment, when the debate (it being a quarter to six), was adjourned. GRAND JURIES (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed.

The total amount of the tonnage belong ing to the Unit.ol Kin - dom was 4,305,460, against 4,86,908 in 1855, 4,184,685 in 1,854 and 8,969,158 in 1853. rfIUR.SDAY EVENING, JUNE ;18, 1857 MINISTERS' MONEY (IRELAND) BILL, (From the Times.) The second reading of the Ministers' Money Bill will come on in the House of Lords to-night, and Lord Derby has given notice of his intention to move that the bill be read a second time this day six months. For the first time since the meeting of the new Parliament the Opposition leader will be found marshalling his forces in array against the Government. The Peers will, no doubt, listen to an excellent speech, which might well have been made at a better season and in a better cause ; for on what grounds will the smoothness of this promising session be disturbed, and a victorious Ministy be bearded within a few weeks of their triumph ? Simply to retain for a few Irish clergyman the legal right to money which there is no chance of their ever getting. No dispossessed Celtic landowner of two centuries since, no Royalist French refugee whose domains had been split up into ten-acre patches and sold half-a-dozen times over under the Republic and Empire, was ever more com pletely without a chance of recovering his pro perty than the few established clergy concerned are of obtaining their dues from the default ing corporations. The history of the tax extends over a space of nearly two hundred years. The impost was first established by Act of Parlia ment in the reign of Charles 11., upon Dublin, Cork, Waterford, Limerick, Kilkenny, Kin.ale, Drogheda, and Clonmel—all towns which are now inhabited by a large preponderating population of Roman Catholics. The consequence is that now the payment is re-isted, and cannot be enforced with out litigation and all the many bitternesses to which it gives rise. The Protestants, of course, charge the Papists with dishonesty, with factious ness, with withholding what they covenanted to pay when they took the property on which the tax is levied ; and the Papists reply with accusations of extortion, tyranny, and clerical greediness. That there may be much stinginess and much spite mingled with the opposition of the Catholics we can well believe ; the rivalries of a provincial town and the tenacity of a business man's pocket may have much to do with the religious scruples which are so ostentatiously paraded. But it is the same in all these cases. As long as there is an appearance of injustice we must be prepared to find selfishness, vanity, and ambition making capital out of their opposition. The best thing is to remove all causes of discontent, real or affected. In this case the course is easy. The Ministers' Money is an anoma lous impost which presses on certain localities pre eminently Catholic, and does not extend to others where Protestants are in a majority. Cork pays, and not Belfast ; Limerick pays, and not Ennis killen. The tax was imposed by an old act of Par liament to supply a present want and encourage a Protestant immigration. Tt was in its na.ure partial and temporary. Circumstances have since entirety changed, and it is time that the enactment should be at once repealed. The loss to the Pro testants will be little indeed, for the tax amounts only to a few thousands a year, and, small as it is, it is to a great extent unpaid. What objection there can be to a settlement which should remove this petty grievance by foregoing this miserable benefit we cannot see. The second reading of the bill was carried in the House of Commons by 313 votes to 174, or by a majority of 139, being only one less thuw the majority for the Oaths Bill. Thus these two semi-religious measures—one for the relief of Oath- , lies and the other for the relief of Jews—have teen endorsed in the first session of a new Par liament by larger majorities than have generally been met with is late years. The example ought not to be lost pn the Lords, who continually declare their respect for the representatives of the people. But there is a difference between the bills— namely, that one affects the rights of a weak and yielding race, whose claims may be delayed or re jected with impunity, while the other relates to a pushing, turbulent, obstinate body of religionists, who may at any time plunge half the towns of Ireland into confusion, and sound from hundreds of platforms and newspapers a yell of defiance. As a matter of peace and quietness, i therefore, we think that the Lords may well pause before they reject this bill, which has been sent up, to them with the approbation of so strong a majo rity of the Commons. As it is, in Cork and other towns there is certain to be a steady resistance to the payment of Ministers' Money. What, then, may we expect when Ireland learns that a bill for the abolition of the impost has been thrown out by the Lords, after receiving the assent of a great maiority of the Lower House ? With what joy will each priestly firebrand receive the intelligence With what interest will the agitator, whose occu pation has been of late years at an end, watch the sleeping embers of discontent once more emit a warning light ! Every resource of cunning and per tinacity will be used to make the payment of Minis ters' Money into a standard grievance. We shall have martyrs in all the towns which are liable to the impost. Every corporation and every freeman who has hitherto paid will now refuse to pay, except under legal compulsion, and any proceedings against. them will be the signal for meetiegs, processions, banners, speeches, and all the machinery of agita tion. The ministers whom it is proposed to pro tect get very little of their money as it is, but now they will get positively nothing. A perverse decision in the Lords will be the greatest blow to those whom the noble house is most anxious to serve. The fact is that the Conservative party bind up this question with the supremacy of the Irish Cuthe funds of the Ecclesiastical Commission e y e for which a tax on property bas heretoforeapply opsl available seems like a surrender hr beench. of the principle that the people in general may be rated for the support of an Established Church. And, in truth, the Irish Church is so strange and anomalous an institution that it is difficult to say what will or what will not hurt it. It is quite possible that the extinction of an impost which ex torts a few shiliings yearly from each of a number pugnacious householders may hare a us effect on an es t a bli s h men t w hi c h i s a odfan nois ygero and contradiction to most rules. But, if the Irish Church be founded on any principle of justice or common sense, we should think that the passing of this measure can only be of service to it. The bill removes the last of those payments which tend to aggravate and envenom the differences of creed. Church rates and tithes have been legislated since, a n d th e se ttl emen t o f as resulted, after a necessary diffusion of goo d w ill among p eo pl e who sw in separated by immemorial hatreds. interval,the questions erib for et fhoee long This little measure about Ministers' Money is but the pendant to the great changes of a quarter of a century ago. In those days the Lords showed an equal unwillingness to acquiesce in principles which are caused owd in universally admitted, and th e i r o pp os iti on u the end more harm than good to the class c n e live they protected. We trust they will in the present case abstain from giving the Catholics a specious grievance while they seek to preserve to the Pro testants a phantom benefit. Far better will it be that ten times the value of the Minister's Money be lost to the Irish Church than that a field should be given for the renewal of the old bickerings and the old recriminations. Lord Derby will indeed be unfortunate if his plan of camgaign for the session involves only attacks on such points as the Oaths Bill and the Ministers' Money Bill. Every one feels that these are measures on which political rivalry might be content to sleep, and by passing which both sides might join to settle questions which have occupied the time and tried the patience of almost a generation of legislators. DETECTION OF A SHAY IDIoT.—The application of the process of etherisation has just been resorted to in Belgium as a means of acquiring judicial information. After a considerable robbery committed at Brussels in November last two men named Lerch and Daubner were arrested and brought to trial. The former was condemned to hard labour for life, but in consequence of the latter pretending to be dumb and idiotic his trial was postponed, in order that a medical investigation should take place. It was found impossible to get even a sign of intelligence from him. As it was, however, known that he was not born dumb, and that he had spoken, when he said that he could speak no language but German, he was etherised, and while labouring under the effect of that application be spoke perfectly and in French. He was in consequence again brought up before the tribunal, and condemned to 10 years' hard labour. _ - -- • [AnvEarismismr.]—The salutary effect of Du Barry's del' - cions Revalenta Arabica Food in removing Indigestion (Dys pepsia), Flatul enc y, C ons tipation, Nervous, Bilious, and Liver complaints, Cough, Asthma, Consumption, and Debility with out Medicine, is admirably displayed by the following letters: " Ridlington Rectory, Norfolk, June 10, 1850.

(Before Mr. Pashley, Q.C., Assistant Judge.) Henry Price, 12, was indicted for stealing caps, value 155., the property of James Shipway, his master ; and Edward W. Harrison, 25, was in dicted for feloniously receiving the same, well knowing the same to have been stolen. Mr. Tindal Atkinson, instructed by Mr. Wake ling, prosecuted ; Mr. Platt appeared for Harrison. The prisoner Price pleaded guilty. Mr. Atkinson having opened the case. Price was placed in the witness-box and sworn. He said—l am 12 years of age., I was errand boy to Mr. Shipway, and bad assist.sd _in his shop for about four mouths. Mr. Shipiray's shop is in Up per-street, Islington. I know!the prisoner Harri son, and have taken things to him from my master's shop. I began to do so about three weeks after I went into his service. Mr. Shipway gave me and another boy some old hats, and we sold them at Harrison's shop, in Wheatsheaf-yard. Islington. He then told me if I could bring him some caps he would pay me well for them. Idid nottell him where I lived, but he saw from the name inside the hsts where I worked. I took several caps after he asked me, but I cannot exactly say how many. took a cap the next morning out of a box iu my master's shop, which I took to Harrison, and he gave me 6d. for it. The selling price of the cap was 2s. Gd. 1 took another cap the next day from a shelf in the shop, which was worth 3s. 6d., and Harrison gave me Bd. for it. The next day I took another cap—it was a two-and-sixpenny cap, and he gave me 6d. for that. I took two half-crown caps the next day, and Harrison gave me ls. for the two. The day after that I took two mom caps, and sold them to Harrison at the same price. On other days I took several more caps, and Harrison gave me Gd. each for them. I stole all the caps from my master. I took this one (produced) in May last. (The witness then identified some other caps he had sold to the prisoner Harrison.) I met Harrison in the City-road two or three days after a policeman had been to my master's shop, and he said, " How is it that I have not seen you so long 1" and I said that as I had seen a policeman come to my mas ter's shop I was frightened to take any more caps. Harrison said that he would see that was all right, and he then left me. After that I took some more caps and leather bands, which I sold to the pri soner. Cross-examined by Mr. Platt—My master has not told me what to say. He only told me to speak the truth. Ido not expect to get off through giv ing evidence, but I do not expect to be so severely punished. I took two caps sometimes together from my master's shop. Ido not know the price of these caps per dozen. I did not tell Harrison when I took the caps that I had been sent by my mother to sell them, who was very busy making them. I have taken, altogether, about 70 caps to Mr. Harrison's shop. Thrrison once gave me 10d. for a cap, but the price of that was 4s. sd. I have never been in trouble in my life before. Mr. J. Shipway, the prosecutor, 89, Upper-street, Islington, said the boy Price had been in his service for about four months. From. information he re ceived, he watched him. On Saturday, May 9, he called Puke into his counting-house, and told him that he had been robbing him for some time. He took a cap out of his desk and asked him if he knew it. He began to cry, and said he should not have done so had he not been induced to do so by a man in Wheatsheaf-yard. He said the man had given him Bd. for the cap. He also said he had taken a good many caps, leathers, and other things. Other evidence having been given, Mr. Platt addressed the jury, contending that Harrison had received the caps under misrepresen tations by Price that his mother had m id° them, and, being in distress, was compelled to sell them at a sacrifice. A witness was called to contradict the boy, and evidence to character was given. The jury found Harrison guilty. The prosecutor very kindly said if the court would allow him to take the boy Price back into his employment at once he would do so, to afford him still a chance of returning to paths of honesty and becoming a good man. The Assistant-Judge said that was very credit able on the prosecutor's part, and to enable him to endeavour to carry out his good intention, he should sentence the boy to three days' imprisonment, which having already expired, dating from the com mencement of the sessions, he would be at once dis charged, and given up to his friend, and the peril he had been in—for he was liable to be transported for 15 years for the offence he had committed— would, he hoped, be a warning to him for the rest of his life. With respect to Harrison, the case was a very bad one, but he thought he could properly abstain from sentencing him to penal servitude. Under the circumstances of his case, and taking perhaps a too lenient view, he should sentence him to be kept to bard labour for 15 calendar months. John West was indicted for having stolen a truss of hay, the property of Henry Hawker. Mr. Gent prosecuted ; Mr. S. Carter appeared for the prisoner. The prosecutor is a hay-dealer, living at Har mondsworth, and the prisoner kept a public-house at Crawford-bridge, Hounslow. The former bought a rick of hay of the latter, which was upon his pre mises. The case against the prisoner was that he had purloined some of the hay after it became the property of the prosecutoh When accused of the theft, the prisoner acknowledged it, and said ho hoped he should not be locked up. The jury, after a long investigation, found the prisoner guilty, but recommended him to mercy on account of his former high character. The Assistant Judge sentenced him to three months' hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Jun• 18. MANSION-HOUSE. —Henry Humphrey was brought before Alderman Hale charged with having stolen a pocket-handkerchief. Mr. Watson, of Thavies-Inn, said—" Half 'an hour ago, in Cannon-street West, I felt a tug at my pocket, and found that my handkerchief was gone. The prisoner was running away, and when he saw me following him, he threw away my handkerchief, and was then seized by a policeman. Alderman Hale (to the prisoner)—Have you any thing to say I Prisoner—Not a word. Alderman Haile—ls he known here 1 The gaoler—Not by any one. Committed for six weeks to the House of Cor rection. GUILDHALL.—CharIes Harrison, a foreman in the employment of Messrs. Cooper, wholesale grocers, of Monument-yard, was placed at the bar, before Alderman Hale, for further examination re lative to the charge of robbing his employers. Mr. Humphreys appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Wontner for the defence. From the evidence taken on the former examina tions it appeared that the prisoner had been a fore man in Messrs. Cooper's establishment during the last six years, and that in such capacity it was a part of his duty to draw orders upon the sugar refiners for the delivery of loaf sugar, it being customary with Messrs. Cooper to purchase large quantities of refined sugar, to be cleared within stated periods, and they were in the habit of removing it in such quantities as were required from time to time. The prisoner had taken advantage of the authority placed in his hands, and had issued orders upon the refiners for large quantities of loaf sugar, and it was alleged that the aug so obtained was sold to different parties by the, prisoner, on his own ac count, but in his employers' name, none of such transactions being entered in the prosecutors' books. In one instance Mr. John Anstey, a grocer, of High-street, Hoxton produced about 30 in v oi ces of goods purchased of ;lin prisoner, amounting to about 1801., and which Anstey believed he was buying of Messrs. Cooper. The following was.the evidence taken yesterday : Peter Mossop said—l am clerk to Messrs. Elers and Morgan, sugar refiners, of Lambeth-street, Goodman's-fields. On the 22d of May I received the order produced foi 30 titlers of sugar. It was signed "C. Harrison, for Thomas Cooper and C 0.," and directed that the goods should be delivered to Johnson's cart. Johnson's carman brought me the order, and I wrote upon it requesting instructions about the packing of the sugar, and shortly after wards the carman returned with the prisoner, who told me to deliver the sugar in white paper, and I did so.. The weight of the 40 titters was 11 cwt. 23 lbs. Cross-examined—Messrs. Elers and Morgan sold this sugar to- Messrs. Cooper, and was part of a lot of 803 titlers which Messrs. Cooper purchased. on the 19th of May, to be cleared in two months. Robert Stewart, carman to Mr. Johnson, said— I went to Messrs. Elers and Morgan on the 22d of May last for 40 titl e rs of sugar, and the prisoner went with me and told me I was to take in 40 titlers, and he remained with me until they were all put into the cart. He told me to take them to Mr. Durant's, in Lillypot-lane, and I accordingly delivered them there to a porter of the name of Blatch. On the 26th of May I went to Mr. Dur ant's for 35 titlers and a bag, which Blatch brought out to my cart, and I took them to Chamberlain's wharf, accompanied by Blatch. Henry Frederick Blatoh said—l am in the ser vice of Messrs. Durant, of Lilypot-lane. The firm consists of Roger Durant and Ryder Durant. They are wholesale grocers and dealers in spices. I was present on the 22nd of May, when the last witness brought 40 titlers, and I delivered them to Ryder Durant, who stacked them in the ware house. I'assisted. They - were-all in whitki- -paper. 4 Some were put in one stack and some with other sugar. There were from 20 to 25 titlers in a stack. I went with the last wiiness to arambertin's wharf with 35 titlers, and they - were m , xoi others ; but I cannot say if the 35 taken to Cham berlain.'s- wharf include the stack of 20 or 25 ; but I believe part of them were part of those taken to Chamberlain's wharf. I put blue paper round them by the direction of Mr. Ryder Durant, but Mr. Roger Durant was not then present. 1 took a bag with the titlers, and an address card directed "From Roger Durant and Co., 5, Lilypot-lane, General Post-office, London.—R. At will, 95, Lower Union-street, Torquay." Mr. Roger Du rant wrote the card and receiving note produced. The memorandum containing the following entries is in my handwriting : "June 2. To the superin tendent, Chamberlain's wharf. Please ship on board the --, for Torquay, the undermentioned goods, viz. : 35 titlers, 1 bag sundries, 1 hag cur rants, and 1 parcel tea—for R. At will, 95, Lower Union-street, Torquay. From R. Durant and Co., 5, Lilypot-lane, Noble-street, City." Since the last examination I have ascertained that Mr. Ryder Durant is not one of the firm. He is only alservant the same as myself, and is paid weekly. Alderman Hale—Who then is the Co ? Witness—l do not know. Mr. Ryder Durant told me that he was not one of the firm. I have not heard so from any one else. Mr. Humphreys—How is it that the name of Mr. Mitchell, Lilypot-lane, appears in print on the back of the receiving note? Mr. Wontner objected to the question as irre gular, as it did not refer either to the prisoner at the bar or anything written by the witness. It merely related to E otneth'ng done by a third party after the goods had left the prisoner's possession. Alderman Hale thought the answer might be material. Witness—The name of Mitchell was over the window when I first went into Durant's service ; but I have never seen Mr. Mitchell, neither do I know long his name remained up. I know a per son who acted on the prem'ses, and used the name of Mitchell. Mr. Ryder Durant was there when I first went, and he took possession of and opened all lebters addressed to Mitchell. I read tome of them, and I have taken orders in Mitchell's name to Messrs. Coopers for goods, . Mr. Ryder Durant attended to the business referred to in those letters. The orders I took to Messrs. Coopers I received from Mr. Ryder Durant. Mr. Wontner objected to this mode of examina tion, as it was quite irrelevant to the charge against Harrison. Alderman Hale—lf other parties are concerned with Harrison in this extensive robbery, it would ultimately be seen how the evidence affected him. Mr. Humphreys said Mr. Cooper bad given him such information and instructions that he now felt justified in giving Mr. Ryder Durant and Mr. Roger Durant into custody for receiving this pro perty, knowing it to have been stolen. The two Durants were then placed in the felon's dock, and the examination proceeded. Peter Mossop, recalled, said—l have been to Chamberlain's wharf, and seenthe titlers. Some had my own private marks on the white papers they were packed in, and others had none. I unpacked those in white papers, which I examined, and then I found that the marks indicating the quality of the sugar had been rubbed off the bottom of each titler. Mr. Humphreys, at this stage of the proceedings, said he thought he had stated sufficient to ask for a further remand to enable him to complete the case. A solicitor, on the part of the two Durants, ap plied that all letters, papers, and keys found upon them might be given up to them. Alderman Hale said that it was rather an un usual application, as it might tend to frustrate the ends of jtstice. liowever ' the officers would examine those papers, and if there was nothing in them relating to the present charge, the application might be renewed on a future day. The prisoners were all remanded to Newgate. MARYLEBONE.—Wm. Drage, coachman to Lady Listowel, was charged with assaulting Wm. Eastwood, a cab driver. The prisoner was riding on horseback along the Edgware-road, and the complainant in drivin g his cab past him, touched the prisoner's horse. The prisoner followed him, and gave him a violent blow on the head with the butt end of his whip, render ing him insensible for some minutes. The prisoner said he did not mean to hurt the complainant. Held to bail, himself in 501., and two sureties of 401. each, to appear on Wednesday next. WANDSWORTH.—A respectable-looking mid dle-aged man, who gave the name of John Kelly, was charged with stealing a large quantity of plate and jewellery at Southampton. . _ _ During the lastLfortniiht the prisoner had been residing at Southampton, at a boarding-house for travellers, in the care of a servant named Mary Ann Anderson. On Saturday the pri soner sent to the railway what appeared to be ;his luggage, consisting of five large boxes and a bag. He left on the Sunday morning, and took with him three portmanteaus. Some time afterwards Anderson missed a large quantity of valuable property, consisting of plate, &c., belong ing to her mistress. Suspicion fell upon the pri soner, and she then discovered that a gold watch and guard had been stolen from the box of a gen tleman who had gone to sea, and had left his pro perty in their care. Inquiries were made. The servant was placed in concealment at the Nine Elms depot, where the boxes had arrived. The prisoner soon afterwards made his appearance and claimed the property. The servant identified him, and at once gave him into custody. The prisoner said that if she did not press the charge, he would restore all the property, and pay her expenses back to Southampton. This she refused, and be was taken to the station. He then produced a bunch of keys, and pointed to one of the boxes, which upon being opened was found to contain the god watch and a great deal of other property, consist ing of jewellery. The prisoner's brother said that he had left a carpet hag and a leather trunk at Hampton Court station, which was found to be correct, and they contained the whole of the this sing plate. The other boxes contained a large quantity of property, which is supposed to be the proceeds of other robberies. The police also found seventeen si. Bank notes upon the prisoner. Mr. Ingham remanded the prisoner for inquiries. DEATH IN A STATION HOUSE. Yesterday Mr. Bedford held an inquest in the board-room of Charing-cross Ho-pital, on the body of Anthony Wain, aged 46, a carpenter, late of Elizabeth-street, Pimlico, which was all-ged to have been occasioned by neglect of the police while incarcerated at the Vine-stieet station. From the evidence brought forward it appeared that the deceased was in his habits a steady, sober, and industrious man, having a wife and family dependent upon his exertions. On Satur day evening last he was in company with some friends in the neighbourhood of Piccadilly, and, having parted with them, he was on his way home to Pim lico, when he fell over a kerb-stone, near Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-street, and was discovered by some cabmen in the said street, who picked him up. It was then found that he was incapable of proceed ing on foot, and the police were in consequence called, who took him to the Vine-street station, and Mr. Packe, the inspector upon duty, atter put ting a few words to the policemen who brought him to the station, consigned him to the cell. Here he lay upon the ground • (asphalte) tor some hours, when he was seen by a policeman. He was then breathing heavily, and appeared in a very disturbed state. No notice was, however, taken of him, and he was again visited at 6 o'clock in the morning, when he appeared to be dying. The divisional surgeon of the C division was sent for, and upon his arrival he ordered the immediate removal of the deceased to the Charing-cross Hospital. Mr. Ap plin, the house surgeon, here attended to him, and it was discovered that he was labouring under com pression of the brain. He died the same evening. The Coroner made particular inquiries respecting the manner the deceased was treated after he was placed in the cell, from which it appeared that In spector Packe saw him twice from the time ho was brought in (11 o'clock) until 6 o'clock, at which time he did not appear in a dying state. Mr. Thomas, the foreman of the jury, wished to know why medical advice was not obtained when the deceased was first brought to the station-house ; proper attention might have saved the poor man's life. Inspector Packe said that when the charge was admitted the deceased was sensible, and therefore it was not considered necessary to send for medical advice. At 6 o'clock, when the deceased was found insensible, the surgeon was sent for, and he was then removed to the hospital. Mr. Applin, the house surgeon of the hospital, said the deceased was perfectly insensible when ad mitted. The symptoms were those o f concusion of this brain. Everything was done for him, but he sank and died about ten o'clock on Saturday night. The evidence in the case being concluded, The Coroner addressed the jury, observing thi s was not a bad case against the police—on the con trary, they appeared to have acted with feeling. It was for the jury to consider whether any blame was attached to the police in the deceased's death: The jury, after a fe w minute s ' consultation, re turned a verdict of " Accidental il:Lath," an they did not consider any culpable blame attached to the police., • Mil r -- ^• Country Markets.
