COUNTY COURT, YESTERDAY.—(BEFORE J. K. BLAIR, ESQ.)—RIDSON V. GRAVES AND ANOTHER.—The plain tiff in this case was formerly mate tlf the ship Argonaut, of which the defendants are the owners. : From the statement if Mr: Bieiiiiier,iiho represented the plaintiff, ....itcappears that, on the return of the Argonaut fronaew Orleans, in 1858, five bales of cotton were missing from the cargo. For this the mate was answerable ; but as . the captain agreed to bear part of the loss, the sum of £2O was deducted from the plaintiff's wages. Some time after this it was discovered that the bales had not been shipped in the Argonaut, and under these circum stances the plaintiff sought to recover the £2O. Mr. Field, who appeared for the defendants, said that his clients were not answerable, • and that the captain was the person to be sued for the money. His Honour deferred judgment until Friday morning. CORONER'S NcluEsts.-- , The borough coroner, Mr. Curry, held the following inquests yesterday :—On the body of Thomas Dobson, 28 years of age, who lived at t court, Boundary-street. On the 28th of May the deceased went to the fair of Ormskirk, and it.appears that on his return he was in drink, and fell off -a horse, which kicked him, and he died in consequence of the injuries he received. Verdict, " Accidentally killed."— On the body of Timothy• Galloon, a sack dealer, who was, nearly 70 years of age. It appeared that on the 28th of May the deceased was at Mr. Brown's (corn merchant) store, 14, Harrington-street, when some men were letting down flour with a rope. A bag about 2 cwt. ' fell, in consequence of the rope breaking, and the bag came on the head and shoulders of deceased, and he died from the effects of the injuries. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death," bat, at the dame time, they thought there was some blame to the men who were lowering the sacks, and also to a man who was below to prevent persons from going under the sacks. ---Thew was an inquest opened on the body of Patrick Moran, of Argyle-street, who died suddenly, but it was adjourned in order to have a post mortem examination of the body made. MARKETS COMIITTEE.—The usual weekly meeting of this committee was held yesterday. Mr. Woodruff occupied the chair ; and there were present—Messrs. Nickson, Johnson, Ridley, Houghton, Barton, Kitchen, Rogers, Shimmin, and Haydock. The Chairman stated that the receipts from the Ist of September last to the 2nd inst., amounted to £10,629 9s. 2d., and the expense of wages to £1,643 Os. 6d. During the same period of the previous year the receipts were £9,858 12s. 11d, and the expenditure for wages £1,612 6s 9d., showing an increase in favour of the current year of about £770 since the Ist of September last. A memorial to the mayor was submitted by the chairman, signed. by 290 of the tenants of St. John's Market, praying that the Council would re-consider the bye-law altering the the hours of closing op Saturday evenings from eleven to ten o'clock. The memorial pointed out the injurious effect which the alteration had on their business, and referred also to the incon✓enience thereby caused to the public generally. The practice had been tried in the year 1846, but the committee were then obliged to return to the former hours. The Chairman remarked that the memorial urged nothing further than what was discussed before the Council when the bye-law referred to was passed. At all events, any representation must be made to those who had made the' law. The memo rial was, accordingly, transmitted to the Council. The remaining business was of no public importance. BIRKENHEAD Cowaresrosans.—Yesterday morning a special meeting of the Commissioners was held at the offices, Birkenhead. Mr. Laird occupied the chair ; and the other commissioners present were Messrs. Baylis, Walker, M'Gill, Keightley, Willoughby, Bradley, Aspinall, and Barnett. The minutes of the last meeting having been read, the proceedings of the Market, Health, Road and Improvement, Finance, Ferry-, Gas and Water, and Library Committees, were confirmed. The annual report of the Library was received and passed ; memorial from the inhabitants of Hamilton-street, praying that a return line of horse railway should be laid down along that street, was, on the motion of Dr. Baylis, seconded by Mr. Willoughby, refeired to the Special Committee of .Roads and Ferry, with full powers to arrange with Mr. Train for laying down a return line along Conway-street and Hamilton-street, instead of having the two lines in Argyle-street. A vote of thanks was tendered to Mr.. Laird for his able and impartial conduct in the chair during the past year. WATER COMMITTEE.—The weekly meeting of this Committee took place yesterday. Present : Messrs. Bennett (chairman), Crellin, Wagstaff, Beloe, 'Turner, Estill, Vernon, and Woodruff. The engineer submitted the return for the week, which stated that the quantity of water taken from Rivington reservoir was 73,335,744 gallons ; from the wells, 24,064,789 ; total, 97,400,533 gallons. The rain-fall for the week ending on the morn ing of Saturday last, was 1.42 inches, and for the month of May, 4 inches. The depth of water in the reservoirs showed the following variations : Rise. Fall. . Rodditsworth ft 1 in. ft. 10 0 0 Rake .. ...... ... 1 10 0 0 Anglezark . Rivington . 0 0 o Prescot (No. 1.) Prescot (No. 2.) Beloe : Can you inform me, Mr. Duncan, the quantity of water that is now daily brought iu Glasgow? —Mr. Duncan : I understand it amounts to 24,000,000 gallons per day.—Mr. Beloe : And what is the difference in the amount of the population, seeing that Glasgow consumes 24,000,000 gallons, and Liverpool only 13,000,000.—Mr. Duncan : I believe the population is much' about the same, but that of Liveipool extends over a greater area of space. Mr. Turner : But it must be reitiembered that there are a great number of mills in Glasgow.—Mr. Duncan : They have also a large number of wells in constant use. I have my information from the best authority.—Mr. Beloe inquired the reason for recording the temperature of the different reservoirs.—The chair man said, in reply, that the engineer considered the observations takes were of considerable - value.--:-Mr. Beloe stated that his sole motive for asking the question was, to ascertain whether the system was carried on for manufacturing purposes.—The chairman said that it had no commercial bearing whatever.—The reporters then withdrew. BANK RIMTCY COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before _Mr. Commissioner Perry.) In re FOSTER ARD FRASER.—These bankrupts lately carrying on business in Liverpool as general agents came up on their last examination. Their balance sheet not being fled in time the case was adjourned to the 15th June. Mr. Martin appeared for the assignees and Mr. Evans for the bankrupt. In re W. BIRT.—The last examination of this bankrupt, a boot and shoe maker in Tithebarn-street, was further adjourned to the 7th June. Mr. Cotton represented the assignees and Mr. Horner supported the bankrupt. In re Joniv WEBsTzn.—This was an application for a certificate by the bankrupt, a joiner and builder at Wavertree. Mr. Cummings, instructed by Mr. Wor ship, appeared for the assignees ; and Mr. Deighton, instructed by Mr. Alfred I3amuell, on behalf of the -bankrupt. He underwent an examination by Mr. Cumming, with reference to his trading, and was after , wards opposed by him, on the ground of commencing bUsiness without capital, carrying it on long after he was insolvent, keeping no proper books and transactions in accommodation bills. Mr. Deigh ton defended the bankrupt's conduct, and maintained that no fraud had teen proved, and that his losses were unavoidable. With respect to his books he admitted that he was guilty of negligence in not keeping better accounts. His Honour said as regards his commencing business without capital, that charge failed, as it appears he had 1420. The main ground of objection against him is keeping- bad accounts, which of itself calls for some ,punishment. The certificate must therefore be sus- Itinded for six nionths. Protection would be granted, . 414 the outdo* would be of the socond class, Mr. Raffles, the new stipendiary magistrate, has gone on three weeks' leave of absence. Mr. Castellain at present fills his place, until Mr. Preston, the deputy stipendiary, can attend. HURST, THE " STALETi3RIDGE INPANT:" -t= WEI understand that Rust tailed on Messrs.

Last . night, Mr. and Mrs. C. Kean appeared before a niirtierotis and delighted audience in Shakspnare's popular tragedy 4 " Mkb'eth.'s Mi. Kean's -Ifacbitit arid Mrs. keari's .31 - acbeth are so well known and so highly appreciated by the Liverpool public, that a word of comment would be superfluous. After the play, there was presented the operetta of " No Song. No Supper," in which Miss Goodall's singing was admirable. To-night, Mr. and. Mrs. Kean will appear in the "Corsican Brothers." LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY iltoke l M~QAot,itkiN.) • TA S4' .• , STERSHELLS. Michael Butler, a fellow whose appearance plainly said "I d'en't care a straw for all creation," and who said he was a fabricator of ginger beer, soda water, pop, lemon?. ir,and other " implements " (l aug ht er,) was c h arge d b y officer - 4. h for creating a riot in Hodson-street; and he was also charged by a young man named Pat Sweeny for having smacked him in the side of the head with a biickbat, by which means he flattened the organ of self-esteem—flatter than a pancake. The officer said that two parties, consisting of nearly 100 person's each, col lected in Hodson-kreet the previous evening, e ich having pro cured large heaps of oystershells; which they commenced flinging atone another in the ; most furious way I : they fought A TegUlavbAttle,, alit' it •cal t .,' dingerOtis to go into the street. they aAA'aneed and retreated, according a s the fortunes of war frowned or milled on either side. At last the officer procured assistance, and rushed into the fight at much risk. After some. time they succeeded in dispersing the crowd, but not be-' fore several heads and windows had been cracked by the oyster shells. Soon after, the prisoner, who seemed to have been a general of division in the first on4laught, came forward in order to rally his forces, and at once he seized up a brick and hit Sweeny a blow on the head, when the efficer seized him by the nape of the neck, and docked him in bridewell. The prisoner said it was all a bit of amusement, and he thought the British Constitution did not allow any interference with rational recrea tion. The magistrate did not understand this sort of British• logic, and fined Mr. Butler 10s. and costs, or, in default of liquidation, fourteen days' recreation at country lodgings near Walton. Mr. Butler thought this a gross violation of the liberty of the subject. • HOW THE ,PIG'S FEET WALKED AWAY. A strong looking young man named Henry Harrison, was charged for-having sto ea two pig's feet value five pence, from the shop of Alice Belton, Vauxhall-road. When the prisoner was put to the bar, he milled furiously at a quantity of some red material, that resembled sun-burnt hay, which grew on hiS head, .and then.barSt into a loud fit of laughter, seeming to enjoy toe ' 1 fun "of his position. A girl in the employment of the persim, who was at one time the proprietor of the crubeens, said, "On Saturday sight the prisoner ;entered the shop, and says he, 'have you any very nice pig's feet ?' Plenty; says I. What do you ask a pair for them ?' says he. Some for two peacefhaliknny, says I, and others of the best description for three pence. 'Are the three-penny ones of fine flavour ?' enquired Mr: Epicure Harrison. Most beautiful and delicious, says 1. Then I shall patronise you for a brace of them,' said this 'good customer.' I handed him two of the.primest in the shop, and he declared they were fully up to the mark, and then, says he, 'give me ,two nice buns to match." I turned round to get him the bOns, and the moment I did so, he ran off with the pig's feet." (Laughter.) Mr. Kehoe : Then he. " walked " off with the porker's cushes ? (feet in Irish.) Witness: No, he "ran" off with them. (Laughter.) Mr. Kehoe: And what becante of them? Witness : Why, he bad them eaten when We caught hirti. (Renewed laughter.) Air. Castellain (to prisoner): Well, what have you to say to the• charge of stealing the pig's feet? Prisoner : Oh, scran to the thing at all I have to say, bar'n they were very "noise "—very " noicQ." Mr. Castellain ,Is he known here ? • Mr. Hand- cock (bridewell-keeper) : Very well known, sir,—he's areg'ilar loafing dodger. Mr. Castellain Then let him go to gaol for a month, The prisoner nearly pulled all the sun-burnt hay off his head as he was " do2ked." THE RECEPTION A WELSH LADY GOT ! Christina Williams, a nice little body, with a girl's summer sun bonnet stuck on her head, from underneath which a pro fusion of black hair peeped, modest looking as a primrose on a spring morning, charged two females, named Cathetine.Kelly and Mary Gannon, under the following circumstances :---On Saturday the complainant arrived in Liverpool from South Wales. .She had a fair portion of clothes on her, and in the pocket of a petticoat she had sown up five sovereigns. She met a man who said he would show het' all the nice things in T iverpool, and he took her about to several places, and they had drink in some houses. She got very much intoxicated, and the next thing she could remember was to find herself at a beerhouse in Freemason's-row, and it was pro red that the prisoners were with her, and that they were seen to take off her clothes, all but her frock. Some witnesses were examined, and gave very different =mutts of the transaction ; and the daughter of the beerhouse keeper gave evidence that would acquit tke prisoners, but two or three other witnesses contra dicted the statement. The little Welsh woman shook all the time like an aspen leaf, but said she remembered the prisoners being about her. The prisoners were remanded to this day, in order to search for the clothes and money. (Before Messrs. PARKER and RATRBONE.) • SEAMEN'S WAGES. Captain William Hall, of the ship Ethel, was summoned by two sailors named William Hanterson and Henry Williams f refusing to pay them—the first £8 17s, and the second £ll, wages alleged to be due to them. Mr. Cobb was for the com plainants and 'Mr. Bluck for the defence. It appeared that the ship went to Bombay, when the men refused to do duty, and were imprisoned for having assaulted the captain and mate. On the voyage home they disobeyed orders ; and when the ship arrived here they were brought Vcfore Mr. Raffles, who sent them to jail for eight weeks, and ordered that they should forfeit £l5 each out of their wages. They now, having been discharged from prison, sought to recover the sums stated, as due to them over the fifteen pounds forfeiture. The amount was disputed, on the ground that the captain had a right to deduct the wages of the men during the time they were in gaol at Bombay. This was resisted, on the ground that the deductio of the i £l5 covered all ; and the magis trates, taking this view of the case, ordered the full amount claimed to be paid. The following case was omitted through inadvertence on Saturaay. - - • PEARSON v. WOOD, alias WERNICK. 'A few days ago, we published the details of this case, which was a claim made by a young and handsome widow, named Pearson, against the defendant, who keeps a public house in Standish-street, for a quantity of clothes and other p:operty, value £l2, wh ch defendant refused to give up'. The case had been adjourned in order to have the husband of defendant present. In addition to the evidence already given on the part of complainant, two witnesses were produced, and they stated that defendant clearly promised not to charge Mrs. Pearson anything, and the magistrates said they believed the evidence on the part of complainant, and ordered defendant to give up the property, or to pay the amount. The property was given up accordingly. WRECK OF THE HARBURG, HAMBURG STEAMER. In addition to the 150 wrecks and casualties previously reported, the list up to the close of Lloyd's, on Saturday had swelled to upwards of 350 ; and it is feared that the renewal of the tempestuous weather on Saturday, when it blew a heavy gale from S.W., with great rain, will add considerably to the already full catalogue. The number of vessels lost off Yarmouth, of which the crews perished, now turns out to have been nine. The whole' of the district of coast, extending far beyond Flamborough Head, has suffered severely ; and, indeed, the full fury of the storm seems to have spent itself upon the North Sea. The steamers from Rotterdam and Hamburg report having seen a vast quantity of wreck floating about the ocean, and the accounts from the Dutch and neighbouring coasts furnish sad proof of the havoc occasioned amongst the English and other shipping. The Harburg, London and Hamburg (cattle) steamer, was wrecked, after several hours' exposure to the gale, the crew, with the exception of two, narrowly escaping with their lives. The Harburg was a fine large steamer, belonging to the General Steam Navigation Company,, commanded by Captain Whittingham. She has of late been chiefly employed in the conveyance of cattle from the Continent to London, and at the time 'of her unfortunate loss was , on a passage from Hamburg to the Thames with 1,500 head of sheep and cattle on board. She had reached within forty miles of the English coast when the gale commenced. The cattle and sheep were hurled from one end of the ship to the other in frightful confusiou, and the crew had to take to the rigging to escape being killed. As heavy seas struck the vessel the live stock was carried overboard, while those below in 'tween decks were either smothered or trampled to death. Although . the engines were kept going, the vessel made no head way, and was driven across the north sea on to the Dutch coast at T exe l . The destruction of the ship appearing inevitable, several of the crew took to the boats. The captain and some of the hands, however, re mained by the vessel in the hope that there might yet be a chance of saving her, and at length bad to take to the rigging where they continued until the following morning, when they were rescued by the life-heat. Two of the men, however, in-endeavouring to swim ashore, perished. Another of the company's fleet, the City of Hamburg, narrowly escaped foundering in the storm. She was also laden with sheep and cattle for London, and on her arrival in the river presented the app earance of b a wreck. Her bulwarks, rails, spars, and ev eryt hi ng ship,on deck bes fi w e e s r were carried e loss of a five way li y undred of h er li ve stock. seas which swept the To add to the misfortunes of the voyage, the . cap tain met with the loss of a prize, which probably might have produced some £10,900 salvage. About ten o'clock on Sunday night, in lat. 53, long. 4 E, s h e fell in with the Edviard Hawkins, screw steamer, bound to the Thames, from Cronstadt, in a disabled state, the screw being broke, and one of her engines almost useless. She had a very valuable cargo, besides specie, amounting in the whole, it is reported, to £170,000. The City of Hamburg took hold of her and towed her for. 12 hours, when the fury of the storm caused the ship to roll and labour so heavily that the hawser parted, owing to the immense strain upon it. Another attempt was made to get hold of her, but failed, and amidst the height of the storm, the Edward Hawkins was lost sight of, and 'for a time it was feared that the worst had befallen her. She managed, however, to escape the dangerous shoals on the coast, and got safely into Nieu diep, near where the Harburg was lost. FANCY MEN AT QUEEN VICTORIA'S LEVEE.—We see that some of the patrons and backers of the prize ring from this side of the Atlantic were recently presented to . Queen Victoria by the United States Minister. Judging, no doubt, from the present state of feeling in England in reference to pugilism and its professors, Mr. Dallas acted under the impression that he could offer no more accep table compliment to her Majesty. The Lord Chamber lain must have entertained a similar opinion, or he would not have sanctioned the presentation of persons with whose pursuits and business to England the newspapers must have rendered' him familiar. We are, therefore, entitled to assume that the honour thus conferred was in consonance with the prevailing tastes of the Court. 7 New York Ilerailf, ENT• eacl a third he Commis laid before time.

An inquiry was instituted on Friday, by Mr. St. Clair Bedford, at the board-room of St. George's Woikhouse, London, in reference to the death of Mahala Howard, eighteen years of age, late a general servant in the family of Mr. Poole, 9, Devonshire-road, Wandsworth road. 1 Mary Lindford was the first witness examined, and deposed that she knew deceased. The last time she saw her alive was on Sunday night, when she met her by chance and alone on Battersea-bridge. She accompanied the &Ceased, who was then quite well, to the house of Mr. Poole. A police-sergeant of the B. Division said that at twenty minutes past font a.m. on Wednesday last, as he was passing along Thames Bank, Pimlico, he found the body of deceased, lying with her head and shoulders in the water, the other portion of her body upon the strand, and her clothes hitched to a pile at the mouth of Cnbitt's Pier, opposite Rutland-street. Her bonnet and shawl were missing. Jane Constable, mother of the deceased, stated that her daughter left her house at Colchester to wait upon a sick aunt at Grays, in Essex, about eighteen months ago, and she had not seen her since. , She had, however, frequently received letters from deceased. The last time she heard from her was on the 13th of last March, when she only spoke of having procured a situation in London. Mr. Edward Poole, of 9, Devonshire-road, Wands- worth-road, Surrey, was next eiatilined, and stated tha deceased had been a general servant in his family for about two months. She appeared to be always in excellent health, but had latterly been very depressed in spirits, evidently from some severe hidden sorrow. She had no followers that he was then aware of, the only persons coming to see her being Mr. and Mrs. Lind ford, who represented themselves as her uncle and aunt, and a brother of Mrs. Lindford, whom she introduced as another uncle of deceased. Deceased left his house on Tuesday evening, and not returning at the time expected, he sat up for her until one o'clock, when he retired to bed. In the morning he went to Lindford's house and saw Mrs. Lindfercl, and having told her her niece had left, Mrs. Lindford (the first witness) said, I won't decelve you, Mr. Poole ; the fact is, I believe , she (deceased) has formed an attachment to my brother," and ho (witness) immediately exclaimed, "What, with her uncle ! You do not mean she had formed an im proper attachment ?" and she replied, "I do." Then he said that accounted for it all, and left. The mother of deceased was recalled, and emphatically denied that the Lindfords were any relations whatever, or that she knew anything of them until the presen Lnquiry. Dr. Eloxam, of Duke-street, Grosvenor-square, deposed that he had performed a post-mortem examina tion. There were extensive discoleurations on the head, throat, arms, and back, which may or may not have been the result of direct violence. There were also four slight bruises on the left side of the fore- head, and a larger bruise on the knee. She had been in her eighth week of pregnancy. He would like to have had some evidence as to her state of health just previous to her death, as he believed that she had had miscarriage. lie also considered,. without doubt, that she had been the subject of an outrage of a most violent character, probably immediately preceding death, or within twenty-fours previous, at the farthest limit: In consequence of the suspicious nature of the case an adjournment was unanimously agreed to, to afford time for further inquiries by the police. MR. SPURGEON AND THE NOBEL] IY.—This eelebra .f.,l preacher attended at Aberoarn on Wednesday last, where he preached in a large field belonging to Mr. Rogers, to at least 20,000 people. Our informant says that among those present were the Lord-Lieutenant of Monmouthshire, and Mrs. Leigh; Lord Tredegar, Lady Tredegar, and family ; Lord Llanover, Lady Llanover, and family, and a large number of the leadinm gentry of the county. Previous to commencing divine worship, it was represented to the great preacher that it would be advisable for the large concourse of people to move aside, to enable the several carriages -and-four to approach nearer the platform, so that the occupants might more easily hear him, upon which he replied that he did not come there to preach to horses, but to men; four horses and a carriage would occupy the ground of fifty people, and therefore the horses and carriages must remain where they were. We are also informed that after the service the lord-lieutenant sent for Mr. Spurgeon, and invited him to come to Pontypool ; but Mr. Spurgeon replied that he was sorry he could not comply with his lordship's wish, as he had full engage ments for the next two years. .DEATH OF A. DISTINGUISHED OFFICER.—We regret to have to record the death of a distinguished veteran of the Indian army. General Sir David Leighton, K.C.8., the senior officer on the Bombay establislunekt, expired at his residence, Bafford-house, near Cheltenham, on the Ist instant, in his 88th year. Sir D. Leighton entered the service of the late Hon. East India Com pany in 1705, and served in the Mysore campaign of 1799, and was present at the siege and capture of Serin gapatam. He accompanied the force under the late Duke of Wellington (then Colonel Arthur Wesley) in the operations against the Mahratta freebooter, Dondia Waugh, in 1800, and took part in the storming of the forts of Dummul, Rollcbad, and Syrhingy. He served in Malabar during the rebellion in that province, in 1803, and in 1815 commanded a brigade in the Deccan field force. Re took part in the expedition under Sir Lionel Smith to Arabia, in 1821, which resulted in the subju gation of the Arab tribe of Beth 800 Ali. He held for many years the office of Adjutant-General to the Bom bay Army, and the firmness, regularity, and impartiality which characterised.'his administration, gave general satisfaction, and gained 'for him the esteem and respect of all those with whom he was brow-A in contact. ARREST OF DECAY.—you remember reading how upon a day not many years since, certain miners, work ingharads far underground, cam e upon the body of a poor before.fello Some wwhoha chemical dperisli perished agent n en th t e to suff w o h ca ici tilngpit 40 ye the body been subjected—an agent prepared in the laboratory of nature—had effectually arrested the progress of decay. They brought it up to the surface, and for a while, till it crumbled away through exposure to the atmosphere, it lay there, the image of,a fine sturdy young man. N o convulsion had passed over the face in death --the features were tranquil; the hair was black as jet. No one recognised the face—a generation bad grown up since the day on which the miner went down his shaft for the last time. But a tottering old woman, who had hurried from her cottage at hearing the news, came up, and she knew again the face which through all these years she had never quite forgot. The poor miner was to have been her husband the day after that on which he died. They were rough'people, of course, who were looking on ; a liberal education and refined feelings are not deemed essential to the, man whose work it is to get up coals, or even tin; but there were no dry eyes there when the grey-headed old pilgrim cast herself upon the youthful corpse, and poured out to its deaf ear many words of endearment unused for 40 years. It was a touching contrast—the one so old, the other so young. They had both been young these long 'years ago ; but time had gone on with the living and stood-80g with the dead.—Fraser's' Magazine for June.

DARING ESCAPE FROM THE HULL GAOL, A most daring escape was made from the Hull Borough Gaol on Sunday morning, by a notorious offender, named Thomas Foster, who was just com pleting a term of three months' imprisonment at the gaol for a violent assault upon Detective Chapman, When taking him into custody for breaking into the slaughter-house of Mr.. Samuel Robinson, butcher, Withani, Mill, arid stealing therefrom two legs of, Perk: He was collimated by the Stipendiary magis trate to the sessions on the charge of felony and assault; for the latter, as we have said, being sentenced to three. rnprtths' iniprisonment, and, . having' been four times previously convicted of felonies, he was sentenced to , seven years', penal servitude for breaking into the slaughter house and stealing the perk. The *ay he managed W escape exhibits considerable cunning and prenieditatien. He was, locates in a room on the third storey of the Model Prison, the base of his room being about 25 feet from the ground, the windows being protected by iron bars, about 1h inch thick ; and he was employed in making cocoa fibre mats. It would seem that he had succeeded in platting a rope of the'fibre of which the mats are made, about 51 feet long, and between two and three inches thick. With two old nails and a piece of iron he had, by some ingenuity, made a kind of drag,, similar to a butcher's hook, and this he fastened in the centre .of the rope, which was sufficiently long *het! dodbleci for hint to reach the ground froin his cell. In order to get out of his cell he had, hdwever, to remove one of the iron bars, which by some means or: other he managed to do, by cutting one of the bars at the bottom clean through with a knife, the manner in which he had possessed himself of which cannot be surmised. The bar being cut through at the bottom, and fit- tiny into the stonework at the top of the window, by working it about he unlodged it, and egress from his cell was then easy. Placing the rope around one of the bars outside the window, he slid down it, and then withdrew the rope from the bar, leaving his clogs behind him. He then noiselessly wended his way to the west side of the building, which he seems to have fancied the most suitable for his purpose, as the street at the side into which he would alight is only a short one, and he would be less likely to be seen than by getting over the wall into ilingston , street i which is a long street, 'where he might hate been seen by parties at a great distance off. Having got W the west side of the yard, an obstruction to his thy progress, in the shape of a botindarY Wall about twenty-five feet high presented itself. Getting on to a coal he,ip ab'ou four feet from the ground, he doubled his rope, the hook before mentioned being in the centre, and threw it over the top of the wall, working it about until the drag had got fast underneath the stone at the top of the wall, which projects over two or three inches dem the bricks, He then drew himself up to the top, made the drop secure in the inside of the wall, and then slid down on side the boundary wall, pulling the rope after him Divesting himself of his prison dress, he then got over another wall, about ten feet' high, and alighted in Manor-street, being once more at liberty i having nothing whatever on, however, but his shirt, diaVieti, and stockings. The escape of the prisoner was discovered about six o'clock on Sunday morning, by the night watch man, who saw a bar missing in the cell which had been' occupied by the prisoner, but it is evident thathe must have made his escape betwixt ten o'clock on Saturday night and two o'clock on Sunday morn ing. As soon as the circumstance was made known to the police, batches of men were sent out in all directions in search of the delinquent, but up to four o'clock on Sunday afternoon no ttace ivhatever had been discovered of hint. The police sticceeded in finding the prisoner's wife about one o'clock, and she told them that the first policeman who attempted to take him into custody would meet with a warm reception, as he was quite prepared for them. He is a native of Hull, is 30 years of age, sft. S9in. high, has blue eyes, light hair, fair complexion, has "I" marked on his right arm, and "D " marked on his left side. LITERATURE.

In the magazine of this month we have an important letter from a " Colonist " on The Manning of the French Navies and the North American Fisheries question. The writer remarks, that We shall find in the naval as well as the military department much to admire in the system of our inge nious allies, and perhaps also much to learn. In sea girt, seafaring, England ; the manning of the navy has become one of the difficult problems of the day. WhereaS in France, from a small nucleus, a great and admirably organised marine has been formed, and the training and disciplining sailors for her navy has become an institution. The French Government of late years, feeling their deficiency in seamen and also in the maritime nursery of sailors, has looked around, with prescient con - talon sense, for some practical basis within their reach, on Rdhrch to found a system of marine. Though few their natural advantage's were in this respect, they have found what they sought in their distant fisheries, if these be well utilised and developed ; and with admirable skill have they turned to account wha't Would have appeared to an English statesman of the red-tape school but scattered and insufficient ele ments. France has now in the fisheries of Newfound land alone more than 20,000 sailors employed. These men are all subject to naval, discipline, they go out in the spring, and return to France in the autumn ; they are at all times liable to be called out to serve in the navy; they are kept together, and in every way pre pared for the one object in view, viz., the possession of a ready-made material always within reach for man ning the fleets. These men and bays: are taught sea manship in a rugged school ; they arc inured to hard- Ships, seasoned to cold, to storms, and the roughest work of the seamen. A Beet, manned frdm the 'rench North Amsrican fishing boats and vessels, would have presented to an admiral crews somewhat more prepared for service than those which left Portsmouth for the Baltic in 1854. In the political article the Conservatives are recommended to remain quiet. We deprecate most strongly any push for office at this critical moment, glad as we should be to see the reins of Government in firmer hands. The best chance far Conservatism is to let Liberalism hang itself : and this it is preparing to do. The debates on the ReforM Bill and the budget have done more towards adding to the ranks of the Conservatives, than even Mr. Bright's speeches ; Whilst Mr, Gladstone's irritability, Lord John's fatuous WedknesSi and Lord Palmerston's off hand manner, are ettectnally astakefting the country to a conviction that steadiness, strength, and sincerity indispensable at this time—do not exist in the present Government. The gilding, too, is becbming gradually rubbed off the financial policy of Mr. Gladstone, although was laid on by no unskilful or sparing hand-_--indeed the debate in the Upper House sin the paper duty has fearfully shaken, the official credit of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Reform Bill will only reappsar„ to be laughed at in the House of Commons ; and to be sent i frightfully mutilated, to the House of Peers, where, in all probability, it will get its cotT de grace.

A PHASE IN REAL LIFE: Within the last few weeks we have heard of a young man, a stranger from South Australia, making anxious enquiries for parties long since departed, to assist him in proving his identity and establishing his right to a legacy of £2OO, under the will of the late Mr. John Richardson, a con fec- tioner, in the Lower Hillgate, a name which will be familiar to ,those whose local linoWledge Will carry them thirty years back. The hero of this sketch is a Mr. Francis Henry Buislem, the son of Lieutenant Burslem, of the 56th Regiment of Foot, who, somewhere about the year 1829, was stationed with the depot in the barracks, and while there married, at the parish church. Sarah, the second daughter of the Mr. Richares son just mentioned. It was a 'gay affair at the time—the bells were rung—and the old- maids were quiet agog at- the excellent " catch " that the confectioner's daughter had made. The happy pair lived in some style in a house in Church gate, and until about £l,OOO had been expen ded in the honeymoon and costly travelling, and rapid extravagances, there was no lack of that enjoyment which money is always ex. petted to command. But the scene soon changed. He was "sent to Coventry" by his brother offi cers; his father, a colonel, we believe, renounced him for his indiscreet marriage; he sold his commission for £300; and he retired "used up" to Liverpool, and after a time, opened a con fectioner's shop. The result of the marriage was Francis Henry Burslem. Business expectations failing, and friends disappearing, and Mrs. Bursleni's health giving way, she returned to her father's house with her boy, two years old, and *era lingering illness expired without the sym pathies of her husband, for it is a fact that he never gave himself the least trouble about her where abouts or her necessities from the moment she left Liverpool. Time went on, and Mr. Burslem suc ceeded, by the influence of others, in obtaining a Government appointment as civil engineer in the then new colony of South Australia. Thither wards he managed to emigrate, taking with him his only son, then about four years old, and receiving an education at Rugeley. In a few years more the father, who had married a second time, contrived to get rid of his son by arranging with a stockman (or cattle-driver), far into • the bush, to take him into his ser vice, and " make the best of him." The dis connection between the father and his son now appeared complete, though the youth was fre quently told of the probability of money.contin gencies in England, through his (the young man's) maternal grandfather, including a gold watch, and family portraits, &c.) Some letters having, while in Australia, 'passed by some means between them, the father often had requested, though un successfully, that all documents bearing his name shOuld be destroyed, - kir what reason cannot be divined, except that it was intended to have i reference to a second or third marriage n which he had been involved, and he never having pub licly acknowled his son. But , "There's a Providence above that knows The toad that ill-men tread, and can direct Inquiring justice." Young Burslem was now in the bush, in the midst of native savages or acclithated white men, —a driver of cattle, and three hundred miles from any human habitation, without the most remote expectation of seeing a kinsman's face, or, still more unlikely, without any hope of again treading the soil of his native home. When, suddenly, another "driver," fresh from the population of Victoria, makes his appearance in the open and boundless plain, and told young Burslem that he had seen an advertisement in a colonial paper, invititing one Francis Henry Burslem, as the legatee . under the will of a Mr. Richardson, confectioner, of Stockport, to apply, &c., and hear something to his advan tage. The rest is soon tea . Burslem . knew he was the lost man ; and the next vessel brought him to England, after an absence of 24 years. . He proceeded to Mr, Taylor, of Chapel-en-le-Frith, formerly a druggist in the Hillgate, as the sur viving executor under the will of Mr.. John Riph ardson, who died 14 year ago, and gave iviina facie evidenee'that he was the long lost son of the testator's daughter, th e living witnesics of per sonal identity being Mrs. Froggatt (Miss,-,Pheebe Jones) of Chtrehgate (a premium apprentice to Mr. Richardson during-Francis's childhood)'; and Mrs. Middleton (a Miss Ni xon ), still residing near the property. His description and conversation about the gold watch and the portraits of his father and mother, painted by Mr. Shuttleworth, ended in the_ clearest evidence of :leis right, and probably befOre the end of the week Mr. Francis Henry Burslem will be in possession of the £2OO and certain other property bequeathed by .the will in question to the only son 'of a• heartless parent 'and 'his ,wife Sarah. The fortunate young man, who is now about thirty. years Old, intends to return to . Australia as soon as possible, to resume his employment in the bush, and if pOssible to institute some inquiries as to the existence of his father. - - .Stockport Advertiser.

'Before the Judge Ordinary, Mr. Baron Martin, and Mr. Justice Willes.) SIMS V. SIMS. , --THREE WEEKS AFTER MARRIAGE. This was a suit instituted by Ann Sims, the wife of Stephen Sims, for a dissolution of the marriage, on the ground of gross cruelty, desertion, and adul!ery. Dr. Phillimore appeared with Mr. Pritchard for the petitioner; the defendant did not appear. James Adams Trudgeon deposed that he was a small farmer, near St. Stephen's, Cornwall. The wife of the respondent was his daughter; they were married in November, 1856, in the parish church of St. Stephen's, Cornwall. After the marriage they came to reside at his house. Before a month elapsed, the respondent was constantly in the habit of getting drunk and beating his wife in the most cruel manner. Witness frequently interfered, and was also assaulted. The respondent deserted his wife in the latter part of 1857. Mrs. Sims, the petitioner, an extremely good-looking and respectable young woman, deposed. that she bad known the respondent twelve months before her mar riage, which took place on the 3rd of November, 1856. Before that he was an extremely steady - and well-con ducted young man. He worked at a mine, in the neigh bourhood of St. Stephen's. They went to live at her father's. Before a month had elapsed her husband came home drunk, and beat her in a dreadful manner. On another occasion he came home drunk, and on her sister going out to get him in he struck her in the face; and on witness going out to pacify and get him to go to bed, he knocked her down. She got up and ran to her bedroom, followed by her husband, who again struck and kicked her on her legs while she was clinging to the bed-post. In 1857 he again beat her about the breast. She was pregnant at the time, and on her sister and her mother interfering, he struck them both. In April, 1857, he struck her, and gave her sister two black eyes. In the same month, on her re monstrating with him on his conduct in the village chapel, he kicked her out of bed, although he knew she was pregnant. After this, her husband left her, and was away three months. She was confined of a boy on the 16th of July, 1857. After this her husband returned, and sometimes behaved pretty kind, but soon after broke out again. On one occasion she tried to get him away froni a beer-house, and he threatened to kill her, but was prevented by the landlord from doing her any injury. He afterwards came home and demanded hib clothe:, and said he should leave her altogether, a n d on that.occasion he knocked her down and gave her two black eyes. He also struck her all over ; she had the child in her lap ; and on her father interfering he nearly choked him. She only saw her husband once after, when he jeered her about her black eyes. Catherine Ann Crole, a young woman, not of very interesting appearance, deposed that she knew Sims and, his wife. She Welled in the same mine at St. St ep h en ' s. He made acquaintance with her in June, 1850, and told her that. Mr. 'Cole, a magistrate, had told him that if he had not spoken to his wife for twelve months he might marry again, and he would make witness his wif e . Believing his story, she met him in a corn field near St. Austin's Mine, where a criminal connection took place between them, which resulted in witness giving birth to a - child in 1859. Stephen Sims was the father of that child. Sir Cresswell Cresswell said—Dr. Phillimore, you have proved quite enough to entitle you to a decree of dissolution of marriage. The costs follow as of course.

DEATII OF THE EARL or STRArronD.—We regret to announce the death of Field-Marshal the Earl of Straf ford, colonel of the Coldstream Guards. The venerable and gallant noblepan expired at his residence, in Lower Grosvenor-street, on Sunday evening, at a quarter past eight o'clock, from an illness which only attacked him at a late houron Saturday night. Lord Strafford, who was the third son of Mr. George Byng, of Wrotham-park, Mid dlesex, and grandson of the Hon. _Robert Byng, third son of the first Viscount Torrington, had reached the advanced age of SS years, and, with the exception of _ _ _ Lord Sinclair, was the oldest member of the House o Peers. His lordship is succeeded in the earldom by his eldest son, George Stevens, Viscount Enfield, born June 8, 1806. AN INGENIOUS EXPEDIENT.—Some time since one of :he Strathspey "men," or lay preachers, held a meeting in the open air. Crowds of people flocked from all parts of the surrounding districts to hear what they believed was superior to anything coming from a pulpit. The heat of the day was oppressive, and all that the preacher could say was .not sufficient to keep the bulk of the hearers awake. Much chagrined at their supineness, and seeing that neither law nor gospel could rouse them from their lethargy, ho at last hit upon the following expedient. Stopping suddenly in his discourse, after a pause, he bawled at the top of his voice, clapping his hands, " the Raven's Stone has fallen !" alluding to a large abrupt rock immediately above. The people, as if by magic, sprung to their feet. On seeing that the bait had taken, the preacher exclaimed, " Oh, you chil dren of the devil ! I was all the day preaching the truth to you, and you would not believe me; but the only lie 1 told you that you believed at once without a moment's hesitation."—Lteenvss Courier. THE VOLUNIEER AND THE TAILOR.—A Mr. Glennie, a member of the South Middlesex Volunteers, brought an action last week in the Bail Court against Hill, a military tailor in Bond-street, to recover damages for an assault. The plaintiff had ordered his military suit of the defendant, but when made it did not fit. He sent it back, and told the defendant that it (lid not fit. The defendant looked at it and said it did tit, and that it was made according to the regulations. The plaintiff persisted that it did not fit him, and the defendant made use of very abusive language. seized the plaintiff by the collar, and pushed him violently out of the shop. The coat was afterwards tried on before the adjutant and other officers, who said the coat must have been made for some other person. The- de fendant said he was responsible only to the committee and to Lord Ranelagh. Did not use any improper language to the defendant. Did not call the defendant a low blackguard. For the defendant, it was stated that this was the first time any complaint had been made against him ; that it had been found impossible to please the plaintiff, wlao had called defendant a "slop tailor." Defendent went to him, pointed to the door, and said, "These are my premisesi walk out, sir." Plaintiff walked ten yards towards the front door, and said, " You are a low blackguard, and I'll make you pay for it." Was not sure he might not have touched him to direct his attention to the door ; nothing more. Defen dant's foreman corroborated the defendant's statement, but believed defendant called plaintiff a humbug. The learned judge, in summing up, said if the defendant had laid his hand upon Mr. Glennie in the mode described by the witness called by defendant, that amounted to an assault in law, but of a very mild kind ; but then arose the question, was that done because Mr. Glennie refused to leave the shop? and was it done merely for•the pur pose of directing his attention to the door, that he might leave the shop ? It was a question of credit—which side did they believe? The jury returned a verdict for the defendant. s tl i i c e il h ia o n rr s ib a l l a e er st u a e t l e t d ies i n of th t e he pa tin ph e. TORTURE. IN NAPLES. --Some det a il e d a n d circum sNtaanptlieast towards ut the s of pamphlet of M. Charles De la Varenne, "La Torture en Sicile." Some of the cases in this narrative are too horrible for publication in a newspaper :—" Maniscalco, the director of police, an old gendarme, and a son of a waiter in a Naples hotel, has been for some timo the real ruler of Sicily, and under his auspices a system of tor ture has been perfected, which is the consummation of diabolical cruelty. 'Every commissary, every jailer,' says M. de la Varenne, 'has his own mode of applying torture. It is revolting to come to details, but they are unhappily exact and confirmed by official authority. The famous Pontillo owes his reputation to the species of torture which he applies in his own commissariat, making the victim sit down in a railed arm chair set with razor blades, under which is placed a - pan of burning coals. The inspector, Louis Maniscalco, the namesake of the general director, applies to the accused little iron hands provided with a closing screw. This is called, in the language of the police, 'the angelic instrument.' Th e jailer, Bruno, belonging to the police commis; iriat of the odious Omega (there is a prison in each commis sariat), tortures by stripping the victim of his clothes and binding his head between his legs. Others employ the torture of the tourniquet, drawing. a cord with a stick inserted in it tight, round the head of the accused till the eyes start out of the head and the skin cracks. Others have recourse to starvation, to blows, to the privation of light and breathable air. But the one satellite of the director-general, who outstrips all the others, is the notorious Captain Chennici, born a peasant in the village of Belmonte, a robber by profession, and now an officer of police and a rich proprietor."

The same old reply: "It hat l'..v4rr so for twenty years, and has worked well." Since the resignation of the late respectable mattee and head of the establishment., those who will take the trouble to investigate will find nothing can be worse or more disorderly. Is it true that a man is now the head, and performs all the offices of nurse,—the wife being perfectly unfit, in every way, for that situation?

Another 'feature in this pen is, that one dip in the ink five n notes' will last for quick writing. The pnn iiself is of the finest descripti on. and in merchants offices, banks, rind indeed in every rise, if w in be found to fill a want felt by every one up to tltis time. w hive tried this splendid pen:handed to us by Mr. E. ir ti all, South John-street, and can pronounca - it perfect, and We are sure all who use it will give a full verdict in its favour.

Bob Brettle and his dist'nguished Birmingham troupe appeared last night, at the Adelphi Theatre, which was crowded in every part. To those who could with pleasure witness an entertainment of the class, ample satisfact on was given, as the various gradations from the comparative tyro to the proficient were exemplified. Brettle himself was, of course, the star of the evening, and he acquitted himself in a manner sufficient to convince every one present that he is an adept in the science. His final bout with Hurst brought into play those peculiarities which able tacticians adopt when opposed to a man with the enormous advantages of height, weight, and length of reach. (Vit . :)on, among those present, was divided as to the merits of the "'dint :" some declaring that if the fight between him and Hecaan take place, the American will gain an easy vic tory; while others maintain that he is the beats ideal of a leviathan pugilist, and that at any rate it would take a "good 'un" to beat him. The veterans Hammer Lane (the hero of a score of fights) and Jem Hodgkiss, Erettle's trainer, appeared in company, and were rewarded with a substantial tribute from the audience for their exertions. On the whole, the entertain mcnt passed off very satisfactorily. Q CH IV ERSENSK Y'S 15s. TROUSERS, IN ALL THE FASHIONABLE MATERIALS. 4 AND 6, WHITECHAPEL, TWO DOORS FROM CHURCH-STREET.
