The Maidstone, with. sury, and rebellion ready to burst out on all her borders, Austria may be content with an exhibi tion of stage thunder for the present. It will be time enough for her to fight when she is attacked, and. then, no doubt, with her back to the wall, she will obtaih from Europe that sort of sympathy which accompanies the most hardened culprit. to the gallows. . IMPERIAL PARLIAMEN r. HOUSE OF LORDS.-YESTERDAY Earl GRANVILLE gave notice that he should, to-morrow r- (Friday), move' that the order of the House should be at .. suspended; for the purpos e . of p erm it t i ng the Savings' Bank and Friendly ',Societies' Investment Bill to be read a second of time. , The Earl of DONOUOIpIORE regretted the course adopted, by the Government, ae many peers had left town, believing the decision of the other night to be a final one. Lord REDESDALE alAo expressed his regret at the notice of the Government. Earl GRANVILLE said that the question was one of the greatest iinportance. A Cabinet Council had been held upon it yesterday, and the decision of the Government deliberately taken. The Opposition could not complain that they were taken by slit prise, as he had intimated the decision of the Cabinet to Lord Derby. The Consolidated Fund (£10,000,000), the Spirits, the Indus trial Schools "Amendinent, and the Landlord and Teount (Ireland) Bills were read a second time. The Landed Property (Ireland) Bill passed through com mittee, and thr_.. Ecclesiastical Commission Bill was read a third time and passed. • The Rouse adjourned at ten minutes past six. HOUSE OF COANIONS.-YE.,TERDAY The morning sitting of the House of Comnions was occup'ed by the discussion of the Civil Service Estimates. A lengthened discussion took place on the vote for the Museum; ti sh several members urging that greater, facilities of visit ought to be given to the working classes, and that the Museum ought to be open in the evening. Mr. WALPOLE promised to bring this matter seriously under tke consideration of the trustees and the Chancellor of the E chequer, expressing himself not unfavourable to the propo sition. The vote was agreed to, as were several others. In the evening sitting, Mr. HENNEitilr called attention to the letter of Captain !Styles, announcing himself as an agent of Garibaldi. and to the operations now going:on in London for the purpose of obtain ing volunteers to join in aiding the Sicilian insurrection. He wished to know whether Captain Styles had in any way q9m municatedavith the Government on the subject. and what was its opinion on this great question of international law. The noble Secretary for Foreign Affairs had lectured them on the subject of Papal enlistmen t—was'he equagy prdpared to oppose this movement! It was known that Austria and Russia were prepared to act in concert, and her 'Majesty's Government 9 1 10 t, to declare what steps they intended to take to stop these illegal transactions. Seerztv - observed that it was a pity that the hon. alsmber's indignation had not been roused when the Papal recruiting was going .on in Ireland. He sincerely hoped that the gallant fellows about to join Garibaldi would be more suc cessful and better treated than the Pope's . Irish Brigade. , Lord PALMERSTON said that the Government had no know ledge of any volunteers having gone out to Sicily. As for the . enlistment of soldiers that would be an act of direct desertion, and was of course out of the question. The act of proceeding to Sicily to join Garibaldi was perfectly similar to that of Irish volunteers proceeding to join the Pope. The one and the other 'were equally forbidden by the Foreign Enlist ment Act. Great. difficulties, however; existed in the appli cation of the act. It was diEcult to prove the.residence of t he Parties ; they might state that they were going to work u pon the railways, or to see what Mount Etna was like. The question, in an international point of view, was no doubt a -very grave one, but it was extremely difficult to apply inter national law in such cases. Mr. V. Scetsy condemned alike the enlistment of Irishmen for the Pepe, and of Englishmen' for Garibaldi. He blamed the Government for giying a moral support to the Italian revolution. The House then went into committee of sup ,ly. Mr. CARDWELL brought forward the Irish educational vote. examined in detail the working of the mixed system'dueing . the last few years. The present vote was Z 21,000 in excess of that of last year, mainly owing to the increased payment to' teachers and the improvement in the standard of tuition. The' increase in the number of schools was 88, and of scholars 3,112.' Re then examined in detail, and disproved the alleged cases of proselytising. and showed that in an immense number of schools Roman Catholics and Protestants attended without any reasonable complaint of religious interference of any kilicf. No ' . ca se had been substantiated where any direct act of proselytiem Lad been attempted. It could not be said that the result of the national system had been to undermine the faith or to dis turb the religious convictions of the people of Ireland. On the sotitrary, he believed that the faith of both parties was never so strong as after thirty peals' experience of a system which left every one his religious belief and gave proper instruction to 'all. He concluded by declaring that the system had given a sound practicateducation, of a limited character, to the entire PoPulatiorr. Still there were some points on which the Govern ment Proposed certain changes. He admitted that the consetu tion of the board was not fair to the Roman Catholics, and that the number of those religionists on the board ought to be increased. This principle h a d b een carried out in the case of th e i nspec t o rs. wes one could reasonably object that the number of' Raman Catholie members of the board should be equal to that of the Protestants ; iu the vesting of the schools and in the books improvements would be . Among_other changes, It was supposed to be possible to introduce into the school books a large proporti on of subjects especially interesting to Irishmen. This might be done • without importing topics either of polemical or political controversy, and it was the intention of the Committee of Council to nominate a I l tb - coranaittee during the recess to takethis question into con- Some plans were also before the CommissiOners design `d to make provision for separate s eligions teaching. The points of most importance related, however, to the com ssoaition or the Education Board, on which the Government fully admitted the right of the Roman Catholics to enjoy an, equal share of membership. The sole motive on which her M ajesty's Government had acted was their desire to do what W IS just awl beneficial; and he submitted, in conclusion, that sPite of the difficulties with which the system of national education in Ireland had heretofore struggled, and still might s har e to contend. it had now taken root in the country, and beco me • the agent of most beneficial improvement among the tishle generation of Ireland. Mr. MAQUIRE acknowledged the benefits which the present s Ystens as tion education had conferred upon Irela n d. All educe svas useful, but he contended that while the , principle.. was gc *cl, the administration was liable to many serious objections, r c en to the ext en t o f rendering it advisable to have It entirely modelled from beginning to end. The teaching and the books ein ol o Yed in the schools were, essentially anti-Catholic and ntina tional, and the whole system, as now administered, uhordinated the pastoral'to the parental authority, and thus latr "tleesl en influence which threatened to und erm i ne th e E arth !of the Roman Catholic children, who constituted the , l , "reat hop ma j orityof the pupils in the national sch oo l s .

LANCASHIRE ASSIZES. CROWN COURT.—YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. BARON MARTIN.) Baron Martin took his seat on the benckin this Court precisely at nine o'clock, and proceeded with the trial of the following prisoners :-- WIFE MURDER IN LIVERPOOL. Thomas Gallagher, a shoemaker, was charged with the wilful murder of his wife, ou the Bth of June last. Mr. Aspinall appeared for the prosecution ; the prisoner was undefended by counsel. The prisoner, upon being arraigned upon the above serious charge, said, " I did not know what I was about ; I did not do it that 1 know of." Mr. Aspinall, in opening the case to the jury, said the present enquiry was one of the most serious nature, Rot alone to the prisoner at the bar, but also to the community at large ; and, although it was of such grave importance, the facts were, as is not usual in such cases, very brief and concise. Of the facts there could be no doubt, but the point 'the jury would have to consider was whether the crime the prisoner had committed was one of wilful murder or that of manslaughter; but he was afraid, after they had heard all the evidence, that they would have to return a verdict for the first crime. He then detailed the facts as given in the following evidence : Mrs. Deirhsteher, of Silver-street, Copperas-hill: The prisoner's daughter by a former wife lived with me. ,The deceased was in the habit of coming to. see.her. On the Bth of June last, she accidently met the deceased on Copperas-hili; while talking with her .she saw the prisoner coming up, when she (deceased) was about to walk away, but witness told her not, and he came up and they were talking together. The prisoner was in drink. She left the prisoner and deceased together, and went to her own house. ,She soon after saw them coming together along the street. When they came to the door, I heard the prisoner ask the wife to come in. She refused. He asked her a second time. She refused. He then asked her to come in while helighted his pipe, and she told him to go on, and then he pulled her by the shawl into the house up to the steps, and they went into the room where his daughter was lying sick. The witness was in the kitchen, but hearing some words she went to the parlour door. • That was about five minutes after. She heard the daughter say to the prisoner "be quiet and don't make a noise." She heard him say to the deceased, "You will see what I will do to you." The prisoner was in' liquor. She returned to the kitchen, but directly after heard the daughter cry out, "Murder ! He has stabbed her ; " and then she pushed the door open, and caught. the prisoner in the act of stabbing his wife.. He had the knife in his hand, and was stabbing at her shoulder. The knife belonged to the house. There was blood, but she could not see where it came from, but it went into .her face and all over her clothes. The knife was in his right hand. She ran to the door, and said there was a man stabbing his wife, and a neigh bour came and went into the parlour. The deceased was then on a chair, and the prisoner was still in a stooping position over her, with the knife in his hand. It was taken from him, and the deceased was conveyed to the Royal Infirmary, where she since died. The step daughter has also since died. The prisoner did not ask the witness any questions. Mrs. Noble lived opposite the last witness, and on the day in question she saw the prisoner and the deceased walking to the door, apparently very friendly. After they went into the house she heard the screams that a man was stabbing his wife, and she went to the door. _ Mr. Shepherd heard the screams of murder, and went to the first witness's house. He did not know either the prisoner or the deceased up to that time. He went into the room, and saw the prisoner standing over his wife with a knife,-and he (witness) reached over his shoulder, and secured him on the floor until the police came. All the other persons had left the room. Du ing the twenty minutes he was with the prisoner, he (the prisoner) frequently exclaimed, " wish. I had stabbed her, and put her out of the way, ai•she had been a plague to me for years." Another witness was called, and she stated she bad known the prisoner for six or seven years, and the deceased since last April. They were both in the habit of going to see the daughter, hut did not live together. Between eleven and twelve that morning .the prisoner called upon his daughter, and had some drink. He called several times in the course 9f the day. The knife. produced was his, and it was in the room on the Bth of June, when this occurrence took place. By the Prisoner—l told you that your wife had been at the house on Monday, and had asked me to get her work as a bootmaker, and that I expected her to call every day. I did tell you not to go away, as I expected her there that day. Prisoner—l did not expect to see my wife when I went there. The statement .of the deceased, as taken before the magistrates, was next read. It was to the effect that she was the prisoner's wife, and that they had been married about five years, but for the last month had not lived together. On the Bth of June she met the priso ner coming towards her, and he asked her" to live with him again, and she told him she would if he would treat her better. They agreed to live together, and .he promised to go to the priest and begin a new life. They went to look for a place, but could not find one. He then asked me to go to his daughter's, but I hesitated, because I had left my children alone, and was anxious about them. I did go in, and sat down in a chair. The prisoner then took up a broad knife—came up to me and said I had been his bane for five years, and then be struck me in the face I think, and I felt the blood, and when I ran out I found the knife sticking through my right hand. . I do not wish to do anything to him. I did not give him any provocation. We had been Separated for four weeks because he had no work, and he went to Cheshire to look for work. I forgive him with all my heart. The policeman who took the prisoner into custody stated, that when he apprehende d him, and .told him the charge, he said, " I wish to Christ I had murdered her outright, I wish I had donelor her," Mr. Harrison, the surgeon to the Northern Hospital, stated, that the deceased was brought to that institution on the Bth of June, suffering from four incised wounds, one on the shoulder, two on the head, and one through her right hand. She remained there until the 6th of August, when she died. Her had no doubt whatever that death was occasioned by exhaustion from the effects of the wounds she had received. The wounds were inflicted with a knife like the one produced. The prisoner's statement given before the magistrates was next read. , He said he had been living at Birken head. On that morning he had received -2s. 6d. for a pair of shoes be had made. " I drank all that day for aggravation, because she would not come and live with me; and take care of her two children. I did not expect to meet her at Mrs, .jefferson's. I drank all that day ; and if it had not been so, I should not now be here on a charge of murder." The Prisoner—My lord, I did not know what I was after. • His Lordship then summed up the evidence, and said he could not see, taking the s!atewents into serious con sideration, how they could arrive at any ether verdict. than that of murder; but if they could, of course it was for their consideration. After consulang together for about five minutest they returned a verdict of "Guilty of Wilful Murder." His Lordship then, putting on the black cap, pro ceeded to pass sentence upon the prisoner in the most impressive manner, being so much affected,at times that he could scarcely give utterance to his sentiments. The Prisoner—My lord, I hope you will be merciful knew anythiug of to me. I have never been in a gaol before. I never His Lordship--Thomas t4f.: grime until I was 'told of it in gaol on the next morning. found guilty of P th — e Th most a atrocious Gallagher , 11 T d e that i :Y e e r beenP has received the sentence of death for. Yea have murdered o ne, whom it was Yon,. duty to protect. You state to day you have no recollection of it—that you were led to it by think. If that statement is true, it• is another proof that drink leads to the most atrocious crimes. It should be a Waruilig to.all, and induce them to abstain from think. But 144 IPA 4e4eve that to be the case. The ep us you made use of at the tithe, $6 you wished x y r o e ssi h a d finished her," • and th e u epithets you applied to her, are inconsistent with the language of a drunken man. When you Were taken to the Bridewell, you expressed yourself, that you " wished t 4, chFist yon had murdered her." I tell you to prepare for death, The law will give you what yofi did , not give to her. You will have every spiritual assistance from all con nected with the prison ; but as sure as you stand there now alive, yo‘i are sure to die in a few days. His. Lord ship then proceeded to pass or lintence of death upon the prisoner in the usual forM. r i 49 IPP I RTPT , .who seemed deeply affected, said, ‘cjiy Lord, have mercy upon me," and was removed from the (I ° 4 ' SENTENCES UPON PRISONERS. POST-OFFICE ROBB ERY AT SOUT Henry Dewhurst 33, pleaded guilty to having, on the Sth .Tuly, stolenstolena letter containing one sover eign and a half, the property of the Postraasteer-ognerai 1."" is Lordship, in p ass i ng sentence upou the Prl oer, it re marked that Ng offence was a most serious n was true that a memor i a l most respec t a bly sigOnee. d had been presented t o th e cour t i n hi s favour, Pei the the memorial stated that the prisoner had borne a most respectable character before this. It was also stated that he only got 235. per week. His Lordship said the prisoner was a letter carrier, and had taken advan tage of hta ,si,ttlation to steal this letter. Such offences were very bad, .aud w h en d i scovered must b e m ost severely punished. Ills Lordship had reason to believe in the present case that it was not the hest offence which the prisoner had committed, as many complaints had been made to the Postmaster at Southport of letters conts ing moueshaving b een sto l en, an d i n or d er t o detect the offender pp/4e in.oney was marked and put into a letter. This marks.!cl mcuy was afterwards found in the possession o f the prisoner. The fact of his having only a small salary was no excuse for such an offqnce. When he undertook the duties of his situa tion for .235. per week it was a voluntary act, and if he was not satisfied with that remuneration he could have given it up ; that was, , therefore, no excuse for committing a felony. The other plea in the prisoner's defence was that he had maintained an aged mother. If he (his lordship) was to take into considera tion such circumstances as children maintaining parents, a wife, and children, there would be an end to punish ment altogether. The Government had very properly made provisions for the transit of such sums of money by Post-office orders, but in many cases children might wish, to send a sixpence or a shilling to their parents, and therefore put it in a letter. Was it not, therefore, most hard that such poor persons should be deprived of their money by persons like the prisoner who were intrusted with letters ?. It was an offence of grave im portance to the community, and must be put a stop to. The, prisoner was then sentenced to four years' penal servitude. WARNING TO H O USEBREAKERS,—Robert Simon, 20, who had pleaded guilty to having entered the house of Mr. R. Harrison, of Blackley, on the 31st of July, was sentenced to four years' penal servitude. George Green, for a like offence at , Manchester, was sentenced to the same punishment. William Williams and John Davis, convicted of the like offence at Bradford, were each sentenced to four years' penal servitude. Daniel M'lntyre,' convicted of breaking out of a house, and stealing 255. from a companion, was sentenced to four teen days' imprisonment, it having, at the request of the jury, been ascertained that he had received 'Much more than that amount of his own earnings at the time .of the robbery, but it was suspected that he had spent it at the Manchester races, and then robbed his companion. His Lordship hoped that such a slight punishment would be a"warning to him for his future life. BIGAMISTS BEWA.RE.—George Crew, aged 47, pleaded guilty to having married Ann Black, his former wife being then alive; and was sentenced to four months' imprisonment ; and Thomas Botha, convicted on the previous day of a like offence, was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment, the fact being that he had twice before been convicted of embezzlements, and, as an attorney's clerk, should have known much better. A CONVICTED THIEF LEGALLY DISCHARGED.—John Burke, who had been found guilty of breaking out of the house of Mr. Martin Kelly, of Bedford, and stealing thereout a coatis which he subsequently pawned, was discharged ; his lordship observing that the jury had been right in finding him guilty on the facts of the case, but, upon overlooking the authorities on the point reserved, that in pawning the coat he did not deprive the owner from again recovering it, it was found that be was not legally guilty of the offence with which he stood charged, and therefore he must be discharged. GAROTTE ROBBERY AT MANCHESTER.—James Flynn and Martin Hart, convicted of robbing an old man named Nixon, the particulars of.which we published on Tuesday, were sentenced to two months' imprisonment, his lordship believing that it was their first offence, and hoped it would be a warning to them for the future. THE CHILD MURDER CASE.—Catherine M'Carthy was sentenced to three months' imprisonment for the murder of her infant child by suffocating it while in a state of intoxication. EMBEZZLEMENT BY RATE COLLECTORS.—Thomas Low, 61, and Samuel Yardley, 45, pleaded guilty to having at various times embezzled several sums of money the property of the ratepayers of Oldham. His Lord ship said this was the worst case he had ever heard of, and it very nearly approached forgery, as they bad been in the habit of altering the sums in the rate books at which persons were regularly assessed, and increasing those amounts—in one instance they had made £34 into £44, and thus robbed the people. That was an offence that could not be permitted to go unpunished as it might materially effect the poorer classes, who had but little voice in snaking the rates which they had to pay. He sentenced them to fifteen months' imprison ment with hard labour. 3. the flu- met ider : ta led ; tied sere Luiet vian the the >eing .will 1. been ring eased. -:COl2l rinee, ho is d hi* cor , and 31a in where dered uitect Home e visit ,ost of Victor s, 700. •idges, 13. 1, but Last ion of ieago hour. .

Francis Villarina, a Spanish sailor, was charged with having attempted to murder an English sailor in White chapel, on the 9th inst. Mr. Simon was for the prose cution, and Mr. Aspivall for the defendant. On the night in question the two parties met together in Whitechapel, when they jostled against each other, and after having some angry words, the prisoner drew his knife, and stabbed the prosecutor in the breast, thereby endangering his life. The prisoner was found guilty of unlawfully wounding. In passing sentence of fifteen mouths' imprisonment upon the prisoner, his lordship observed that, had the sailor been an English nian, he would have been much more severely puhished ; but, as he was a foreigner, he had given him the slight punishment, in order that it might be a warning to such sailors, that they must not use their knives in England. BURGLARY NEAR ROCHDALE. Jonathan Pilling, apparently nearly thirty years of age, was charged with robbing the house of Mrs. Lord, near Rochdale, on the 29th of June last. Mr. Whigham prosecuted, and-Mr. Scott.conducted the defence. The prisoner was an operative employed in doing certain repairs at the house about the time of the rob bery, and he had , seen the place in which the silver plate was kept. On the morning of the robbery the prisoner was met between the scene of the robbery and Rochdale, going towards the latter place. It appeared that by circumstantial evidence adduced, this robbery was traced to the prisoner. A knife, sworn to by the person with whom he lodged in Rochdale, was found on the premises after the robbery, and it was proved that he was out of his lodgings about the tithe the robbery was effected. GAROTTE ROBBERY AT SPOTLAND 41nes Rill and Henry Howarth. were found guilty of assaulting and robbing James.Ramsbottom on the night of the 7th of July. The facts of this case were briefly that the prisoners met the prosecutor, and, after knock ing him down, took his bundle from him, which was found in their possession a very short time after. Each two months' imprisonment. HOUSE-BREADING AT WEST DERBY. Herbert Bellingham, stood charged with breaking into the house of Richard Thompsoun, of West Derby, and stealing thereout a large quantity of wearing apparel. On the 13th'Julyithe house was entered, and shortly after the prisoner was apprehended by the police with the all property in his possession. MURDER ON THE HIGH SEAS. Hugh Galbraith was charged with having caused the death of a sailor on board the British ship Earl of Derby, on the 9th of July last, on the homeward voyage from Calabar. The facts of this case were recently pub lished in the nines. It was proved that, at the time, the man WlCay was very ill, and, having sold some shoes, the prisoner went up to him and gave him a blow which knocked him off the hold, and he died about half an hour after. For the defence it was shown that the deceased was very bad at the time the prisoner struck the blow, and was nearly dead. The prisoner received an excellent, character for humanity and kindness, and, Oe jury having found him guilty, his lordship ordered him to be imprisoned for seven days. As the imprison ment commenced from the first day of the assizes, he was immediately discharged. Mary Roach, alias Smith, was charged with stabbing Sarah Williams in a house in. Peter-street. Both were 4, unfortunates," and in a drunken quarrel in a brothel the prisoner strnok the prosecutor with a knife. Guilty of unlawfully wounding. Four months' imprisonment. The Court then adjourned until this morning, • NISI PRIUS COURT.—YEsrrEnnAY. (Before Mr. Baron WILDE.) HARRISON V. AINLEY. -- The hearing of this case was resumed yesterday morning, at the sitting of the eourt. The plaintiff was re-examined at some length by his counsel, Mr. Overend, and he adhered to his original statement that he had never told any of the children that the Bible contained lies, and was full of them. The plaintiff's exam ination having been corn pleted, Mr. Edward James ad dressed the j ur y at great length for the defendant; 4e Q 414 Call witnesses— pupils of the school—who would positively swear that the plaintiff had told them repeatedly that the Bible contained lies. A number of witnesses were called to support this case, but the only one who spoke to the exact words of the libel was a girl named Betty Needham, who stated that the plaintiff had told her more than once the very words in restion. The other of the defendant's witnesses did not @ay they bad ever heard tlla plaintitr nse the word lie in reference tq the Bible; they had heard him say that the story about Lazarus and the rich WA was only a parable. They had also heard him say that the word "hell" very often meant the grave, and that when it was said that Jonah was in the belly of the whale, it must be understood that the grave was referred to. With a view to contradict the evidence of Betty Needham, Mr. Overend was allowed to call other pupils who had belonged to the school for many years, and who il3 tl;7e 9l. li e ibl in positively than h that the plaintiff had never alluded to ever, said also that t`h6rt h er a m d s n o o f t r b e e y e e n re in nc s e c . bo r r ol h w ey hen ,hO t W h ; passages alluded to by the other witnesses were expounded. Mr. Edward James commented upon this evidence in a short but impressive address. He alluded to the fact that not one of the witnesses who had been called to contradict the evidence offered on behalf of the defendant were present whenthe passaps in question were read, which would acco un t, or 'conrse, for 'their not hearing the comments. He hoped they vieuld remember that the man who conducted himself in this way was a and that, youth, "Whosoever offends any of theseteacher little o f onesthat believe i n me , it were b e tt er that a millstone were cast around his neck, and ho were drowned in the sea." Mr. Overend, in replying . on behalf of the plaintiff, complained of the persecution to which his client had been subjected on account of his religious principles. Those principles had been entered into alld it was, no doubt, done for the purpose of exciting a prejudice against the plaintiff. The question which they were fo consider was simply whether it had been shown that the allega tion brought by the defendant against the plairitiff in d the letter he publish ed in the Todmorden Advertisir had been proved by the witnesses he had called on this trial. been at great length i nto the raised in the course of th e T questionsli le counsel hadb case; he produced several versions of the Bible, and also commentaries on the same by the most learned Christians of the day, and showed that the plaintiff's opinions were but in accordance with these, and this was no reason he contended why an unfounded statement like that contained in this libel, should be brought forward. His Lordship in commenting upon the very volumnious evidence which had been adduceed, told the jury that many questions had been raised by the defendant's counsel which bad no earthly connection with the libel they were to try. It was of no importance, for instance, to know that in some instances the plaintiff had preferred a dif ferent reading of a passage in the Bible to that which was given in the common authorised edition. Such an opinion had been held by many eminent men ; and even supposing the defendeut had an honest opinion that a certain passage was not genuine, and had stated so to any person, that would be a very different thing from the allegation contained in the libel. It was one thing to take a passage in the Bible and say " I put this or that construction upon it," and another thing to say " I believe the Bible contains lies, and is full of them." The jury retired, and after an absence of upwards of two hours they returned to court with a verdict for the plaintiff, with one farthing damages. Mr. Overend applied for a certificate. His lordship said he would consider the matter this morning. MORE LIBELS.—RAILTON I'. RAILTON.—III this case Mr. Monk, Q.C., appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Cross for the defendant. This was also an action for a libel which the defendant had written respecting the plaintiff. It appears that the plaintiff and defendant are brothers. The plaintiff, Richard, retired from busi ness some time ago, and the defendant is now a whole sale milliner at Manchester. They were the sons of a gentleman who died in the year 1829. In the year 1846 some disputes occurred aliout - the division of the property. The plaintiff has some relations who live in the neighbourhood of Penrith, and he has been in the habit of going to spend some time with them in the autumnal months. In September last year he was stopping with these persons, when a letter was delivered by the postman, addressed to Miss Crampton (one of the ladies). This letter, which was after wards shown to the plaintiff, contained a state ment to the effect that if the plaintiff should visit her house they were not to give him anything, or lend him any money, as he had robbed his poor brother Joseph (who was then dead) of £l7O. Also that he was in the habit of going about from farmer to farmer begging, and that his wife kept a lodging-house in Manchester; a subscription had been raised (according to the letter) to buy her a mangle, but the plaintiff was a fellow of such idle habits that he refused to turn it. The plaintiff at once recognised the handwriting to be that of his brother, and accordingly brought him to court to make him prove the statement. The defen dant's counsel acknowledged that the libel was untrue, and having made an apology for his client's conduct, a verdict was entered for the plaintiff with damages suffi cient to carry costs. BOWERS V. THRELFALL.—This action was brought to recover the value of a quantity of waste, which the defendant had purchased from the plaintiff. It appears that the waste was 'sold to the defendant on the 6th of June, and was delivered on the 7th, Bth, and 9th of that month. Ihe plaintiff having the goods to dispose of, had taken them from Stockport to Manchester where they were purchased by the defendant for £203. Before the case had been heard throughout, a verdict was entered for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed. HOLROYD AND ANOTHER V. BOVILL.-Mr. Millward appeared for the plaintiffs iu this case, and Mr. Mellish for the defendant. The action was brought to recover the sum of £5O, which had been paid to the defendant as agents for the plaintiffs. The Messrs. Holroyd are stuff manufacturers, at Leeds, and the defendant, Mr. Bovill, is a clerk and book-keeper to a gentleman of the name of Taylor, carrying on business near Halifax. Mr. Taylor was very considerably indebted to the pre sent plaintiffs, and they found it necessary to take pos session of a mortg,age which they had upon his pro perty. Accordingly they entered into possession of the premises, and paid off debts (including rent, &c.) to the amount of about £l,OOO. In the mill there was a quan tity of machinery which had been let out by Mr. Taylor to some other manufacturers, and it was arranged that the defendant should receive the rent and hand it over to the plaintiffs. The first sum that became due. was £5O, which was given to the defendant, but which he did not give up to the plaintiffs. Hence arose the pre sent action. It was shown that the defendant was acting merely as the servant of Mr. Taylor, and that . the agree ment between himself and the plaintiffs had not been completed. The jury therefore found for the defendant. The court adjourned at half-past five o'clock. THE DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, AUGUST 17, 1860. CAUSE LIST FOR THE ASSIZES.

The weekly meeting of this committee was h e ld yesterday, at the Parish-offices, Brownlow-hill ; Mr. Cropper presiding. The other members present were Messrs. Smith, Owen, Critchley, Satchel!, Edward Byford, Broom, Peck, and Williams. The goyernor reported that the number of paupers in the house last week was 1,749 ; this week 1,745, show ing a decrease of 4, and of 9 compared with the num bers in the same week of last year. In the hospital last week there were 447, and 121 had since been admitted ; 134 had been cured or discharged; 13 had died; leaving still under treatment 421. 446 vagrants had been accommodated in the night sheds, showing an increase of 95, compared with the preceding week, and of 101 compared with the corresponding week of last year. Mr. Cropper submitted a letter which be had received from the India office, enclosing an application from Mr. Leather, the late medical officer of the workhouse, for au additional'alloWance for his services during the time the soldiers by the Great Tasmania were under treatment. Mr. Cropper having asked for the opinion of the committee upon the matter, A discussion ensued, during which it was stated that Mr. Leather had already received £25 as a gratuity, and that he now applied for £42, being the difference between the amount he had received and the total to which he considered himself entitled, charging for his services at the rate of a guinea a day. The committee subsequently resolved that, as the services rendered by Mr. Leather were performed in his capacity of a paid official of the workhouse, the gratuity he had received was amply sufficient. The remainder of the business was uninteresting. THE LANCASI/INE AND YORKSHIRE RAILWAY.—The gellerOhalf'-ycal.lylllcettAg Of t., COI-aptly was held uu .Nr.eduesdaY, at . the company's oiticos, Hunt's Bank, Manchester. The dividends at the usual 'rate for the half year Upon 'the several stocks and shares in the company were declared, and a dividend, at the rat e o 51 per cent. per annum, less income tax was passed, the balance, £10,163, 19:ing carried forward to the next half-year's account, THE DOCK BOARD. The weekly meeting of this body was held yesterday, at the board-room in Revenue-buildings. In the absence of the chairman, Mr. Charles Turner, Mr. Francis Shand presided ; and the other members present were Messrs. Smith, Derbyshire, Laird, Littledale, Monde', Boult, Bushell, Rubback, Langton, Seger, Moss, and Evans. THE WORKS COMMITTEE. From the minutes of this committee, it appeared that a letter had been received from Mr. Hilton Halhead, stating on behalf of a meeting of the tizaber trade, that the rates fixed by the board for land in the vicinity of the Canada and Huskisson Dock were considerably too high, and requesting that a deputation might be received ou the subject. The committee had resolved that they could not recommend the decision of the board to be reversed, but that the rents should remain as fixed for twelve months. They were prepared, however, to receive a deputation on the subject on Saturday next, at twelve noon. Various tenders for a supply of leather for stock were recommended for acceptance, as also one fur a supply of greeuheart timber. It was 'also recommended that the tender of Messrs. W. and G. Armstrong be accepted, to furnish the ma chinery required for working the chain-testing machine at Birkenhead, at a cost of £6,985, which will admit of arrangements being made for also testing anchors ; as likewise to supply three hydraulic hoists for the ship ment of coal, and engine for working the same. Mr. BOULT askel how long it might likely be before this machinery could be fixed ? Mr. SMITH said it would a work of some months; and after some further conversation on the point, the subject dropped. Mr. MONDEL—Is it true these machines can alsb tes anchors ? The CHAIRMAN—Yes, sir, they can test anchors with very little difficulty. - The proceedings were then confirmed. THE WAREHOUSE COMMITTEE.—THE LATE FIRS. It appeared from the proceedings of the Warehouse Committee that the late fire at the Stanley-dock Ware houses was still the subject of investigation. A pipe had been found in the pocket of William Ewer, an extra labourer employed at the warehouses, and a resolution had been passed that no labourer should again be em ployed under such circumstances. Mr. HUBBACK said, perhaps the secretary would read a communication which had been received from the town-clerk, enclosing certain information from the Watch Committee as to the fire. This consisted principally of a report from detec tives Laycock and Patrick, giving the result of their inquiries in reference to a bale of cotton which had been found on fire in the warehouse No. 13, Slate street, Great Howard-street, at half-past eight o'clock on the morning of the 13th inst. The bale in question was in the centre of the room, amid piles of other bales, when it was taken out and extinguished in the street. It was then discovered that the cotton within it was to some extent saturated with oil. The cotton had been brought from Charleston in the ship Richard the Third ; and it was foand on examination that several of the bales discharged from her lower hold had canvass coverings, which were also steeped with oil, but which had not penetrated the cotton. There was no oil on board as a portion of the cargo. A sample of the oily cotton had been forwarded for the inspection of the board, and was exhibited in the room. Mr. HUBBACK, in moving the confirmation Of the proceedings of the Warehouse Committee, said it was, perhaps, well to state that the committee had not been able to discover anything further as to the origin of the fire in the Stanley Warehouses, which was still a matter of conjecture. This report from the Watch Committee created an amount of suspicion. Re believed it had been ascertained by chemists that oil and cotton placed together would, under certain circumstances,—sash as a very strong draught—ignite. What he would suggest should be, that a communication be made by their secretary to Mr. Court, of the Underwriters, and the secretaries of the Insurance offices, with a view to induce them to take the matter into their consideration. The CHAIRMAN — Yes, and send copies of these reports to them. Mr. SMITU seconded the motion. Mr. DARBYSITIRE said he saw the committee had declined the application from his firm for the remission of some extra rent, which had been charged for the storage of a quantity of bone ash in the Birkenhead Dock Warehouses. He thought the charge a very im proper one. They had had the material lying in the Birkenhead Warehouses for two years, and had no notion that they were being charged an extra rent, but went on selling it in the proper season, which was in Spring. They found, however, that from September last they were being charged 13d. instead of Id., and he maintained that they should have had some notice of that. He found, on enquiry, that the rent on guano had not been raised. It was said that was an exceptional case ; but he said they should have no exceptional cases made at that board. He thought that in all cases were rents were raised, or changes made, notice should be given to all parties interested. He wished to ask if the Birkenhead Warehouses were full at present ? Mr. HUBBACK said, as to Mr. Derbyshire's complaint, that he had explained to the board last week that the rent for guano was raised, but raised previous to the rent being raised upon other articles. The rent upon guano was raised in June; upon other articles, not till September. With reference to notice being given to parties, it was well known that the book of rates was in process of revision ; he thought it occupied them six or eight months; then, after the book of rates had received the sanction of the board, it could be obtained any day at the warehouses. The rate of bone-ash was raised, no doubt, because it was considered by those parties able to give them information that the previous rate of ld. a ton was too low. As to the question asked, he believed the warehoUses were not quite full, but sufficient guano was on the way here to fill them. Mr. LANGTON thought it only right that notice should be given to parties when there was any intention of raising the price on goods. Mr. Bonus said it seemed the Warehouse Committee had one measure for one party, and another for others. They had made a contract with Messrs. Gibbs, Bright, and Co. to take in a certain amount of guano at a cer tain price, but had allowed the same rent to be taken on the old guano. Some of that might be in yet. He would ask if there was any. Mr. HUBBACK—No ; none. Mr. BOULT moved that the difference of a halfp9nny a ton be returned to Messrs. Darbyshire and Co. The motion was not seconded, and was consequently lost. Mr. HUBBACK reminded Mr. Boult that the guano stored by Messrs. Gibbs, Bright, and Co., had been put in under peculiar circumstances. They had spent several hundred pounds on a shed which was useless to the trust for purposes of revenue, so that they could put guano in, and that feet should be remembered. As to the Warehouse Committee having one measure for one firm and another for another, it was very unjust to bring such an accusation. Mr. MoNnEL (with a sample of the oily cotton before him) said he did not recollect anything farther being stated, than that it had been shipped in the bale ; but from what he saw of the sample, it was his conviction that this had been put in the bale before it was put in the hydraulic press in America. Now, if that had been so, it was diabolical, as endangering especially that most frightful of all calamities, fire at sea. The CHAIRMAN - It has all the character of a very nefarious act. The proceedings were then confirmed. THE MARINE COMMITTEE. The proceedine:s of this committee included a report trot the Water Bailiff as to the danger to Albert Dock Warehouses from the proximity of the steam-tugs. This stated that he had watched himself, and caused watch to be kept night and day, without on any occasion being able to discover any sparks from their chimneys. The consumption of their own smoke might be the reason, and the only time they were likely to infringe so wholesome a rule would be at dark, when all the windows and doors were closed. He had noticed, however, that the doors were often open when nobody was working, and suggested that they should be closed at least during meal hours. Mr. ARUNDEL moved the confirmation of the proceed ings. That was the place, opposite the Albert Dock entrance, appointed for steam boats to lie. They lay ou Pluckington-bank, which was not sufficiently deep for large vessels to lie there. Steam-tugs were essential to the traffic of the Mersey : therefore they must have a place, and they were placed there de signedly and thoughtfully. It was the best place, perhaps, till they had completed the basin on the other side of the water, and then they might be ordered over. The proceedings of the Marine Committee, as were those also of the Pilotage Committee, were read and confirmed. THE DOCKS AND QUAYS CONIMITTEE.--rEPCK EXTENSION AGAIN. On the proceedings of this committee being read, Mr. Bovyt called attention to the case of the French man-of-war, the Brandon, engaged taking in a telegraph cable at the Birkenhead docks. It had its full crew and officers on board, and vet, pursuant to the rule followed with other vessels, a policeman was sent on board to enforce the regulation as to lights and fires. The French Consul had seen him on the subject, and the presence of the policeman on board was felt as an affront to which British ships were not liable. H e (Mr. Boult) thought French ships of N 7 a r and all other ships with their crews on board should be exempted from such intrusion, and that the policeman should be withdrawn. He moved that the Birkenhead Commis sioners be requested to withdraw the man. A lengthy letter was then read from Messrs. ,T i o.4n Bibby, Sons, and Co. This stated their regret to learn that till the Great Float was opened at. tirkenhead material change could be made. They should have increased accommodation at once, at Liverpool, or must transfer a considerable portion of their trade elsewhere, as neither shippers nor consignees would consent to have their cargoes sent to Birkenhead. They asked for the south side of the Brainley-Moore Dock, in conjunc tion with the north side of the Nelson Dock, the berths to be appropriated to them for fourteen years, and they were willing to pay one-half the requisite outlay, &c. Mr. DARBYSHIRE, in moving that the proceedings be confirmed, said he sympathised very much with Messrs. Bibby, and regretted that they could- not accommodate them. It was an urgent case, but,it, was totally out of place to put ships from the Bramley-Moore Dock into the other docks. He thought Messrs. Bibby had mis taken the answer of that board, that when the Birkenhead Docks were open they might see what different arrange ments could be made. It might be that some of the vessels on this side might wish to go to Birkenhead, and an entire alteration might be made in the north docks, so far as the Collingwood and Nelson Docks were con cerned, which should be connected with the Stanley ; but this could not be done without a general arrange ment. At the present it was totally impossible from want of room to make a move. The CHAIRMAN—IS it impossible to give them tem porary accommodation in the meantime ? From my own knowledge, it is a business of such increasing mag nitude, that it is of the utmost importance to give them room. Mr. SMITH said the Docks and Quays Committee bad given this subject their deepest consideration. It had been before them from time to time, and they did not see what more they could do. That letter was of the greatest importance, and the committee had thought it should be read at the board. It might lie upon the ' table, and afterwards be taken into consideration by the board. They, as a committee, did not see how they could give the required accommodation, till they had more accommodation to give the trade generally. He would suggest that it stand over for a week. As a preliminary, gentlemen might refer to the evidence given by Mr. Bibby, before the Master Porterage Com mittee. He was one of the most important witnesses. The question had become unmanageable by the Docks and Quays Committee, and he suggested that the board generally should think over and take up the question. Mr. BUSHELL hoped in the mean time Messrs. Bibby would believe, as he was sure they must, that that Board had every disposition to give theni the greatest possible facilities. He held a return of dock dues for six weeks, from a certain day in June to a day named in August, which showed that they had increased from £61,600 to £72,000, an increase of ten thousand and a-half in dock dues in six weeks. This showed them that at the pre sent time there was more than the ordinary pressure of trade in Liverpool. Messrs. Bibby had misunderstood the remark that nothing more could be done until the Birkenhead docks were opened. What was meant was ' that when the great float was opened, which would be cer tainly within three months ; it would give such relief at this side as would greatly facilitate the trade of Messrs. Bibby and other houses. He had ventured on these few words that Messrs. Bibby might see it would be unwise in them to take steps which might contribute to their loss and to that of the general trade of the port. He trusted that they would regard with something of sym pathy the difficulty occasioned by the pressure of which he had spoken. • Mr. BOULT thought Messrs. Bibby had not been mistaken at all. They were written to to know if they would take a part of their steamers to Birkenhead, and they had returned a categorical answer. The. American trade, to his knowledge, was exposed week by week, day by day, for the year round, to loss of time, deten tion, and annoyance, for want or sufficient dock space. One ship which he mentioned had to wait ten days to get into a dock, and four days further before it could get into a berth. It was more than patience could stand to see the whole resources of the board absorbed in works on the other side, which nobody would use, and that all accommodation required here should be absolutely denied them. He called it nothing else than a most insufferable tyranny. It was something so unparalleled as had never been heard of in a free country. He believed the business of the port would increase. He hoped anti believed that this was not an accidental pressure. He believed We had before us an enormous import of breadstuff's. this- winter and spring, and how that was to be provided for he did not know.' Mr. EvANs quite agreed with Mr. Boult as to the enormous injustice which had originated in the corrup ► tion of landed and other interests, such as was never performed in Parliament before- lie did not think the Parliamentary committee were properly dealt with, or put in possession of the real facts of the case, or they would never have committed so glaring an act of oppres sion. They who had originated the Docks to be' pre vented going on with them ! have .arrangements thrust upon them, and to be denied the 'right to provide for the necessities of the trade upon this side ! But they were in chains and shackles ; and he held that the Par liamentary committee going froth this place, with parti cular members interested in it, he held that this injustice was entirely derivable from them. The CHAIRMAN—I think you are going a little out of the way. Mr. EVANS proceeded—He was convinced if any man of known integrity and qualified to give the Parliamen tary committee a knowledge of the subject had shown his earnestness in doing it, he was perfectly clear the result would have been the direct opposite. He had often urged this in the warehouse question upon the board. He had advocated, and repeated it again, that that board was bound to make a strong remonstrance to Parliament, and to have the thing considered. It was not too late yet. It was an affair affecting the com merce of England, and ought to have a primary consi deration of the legislature and of the country. Mr. SMITH suggested that it might be well to refer the letter to the Works Committee, , and the discussion there might possibly lead to a result satisfactory to Mr. Evans. Only three or four weeks ago a motion on this subject had been rejected by the board, by a considerable majority. H e argued that the question should be re opened, and that the responsibility of the state of things should be thrown upon Parliament. After some conversation, it was agreed to refer the letter back to the Docks and Quays Committee. Mr. Boult's motion, in reference to the French vessel, was then taken into consideration, and -it was left to the secretary to arrange for the policeman's withdrawal. The proceedings of the Committee of Master Porterage were then read and confirmed. COMMUNICATIONS. The Coroner had forwarded the presentment of his jury in reference to the death of Mr. Anderssen, which has already appeared in our columns. This was read, and the Chairman stated "that the recommendation it contained had been attended to. Two applications to rent land at the north end of the docks, and a similar application in reference to land at the south side of the Great Float at Birkenhead, were referred to the Works Committee. Applications from two warehouse clerks for increase of salary, were referred ; and a letter from Mr. John Clare, jun., which was not read, was ordered to be laid upon the table. This was the whole of the public business. HEALTH COMMITTEE. The weekly meeting of this committee was held yes tettlay at the Town Hall, Mr. Alderman Dover presiding. There were also present Messrs. Sheil, Vernon, Beck with, Crosthwaite, Haydock, Job, Barton, Ridley, and Stitt. Dr. Cameron, acting for the medical officer of health, reported, that the number of deaths registered in the week ending Saturday, the 11th instant, amounted to 194, being 80 less than the corrected average for the same week of the last ten years. Zymotic diseases caused 56 deaths, of which diarrhoea caused 30 deaths, typhus, 5, scarlet 7, simple 2, measles 12. Diseases of the lungs and consumption caused 39 deaths, diseases of the chest 5, of diseases of the brain 10, convulsions 10, dropsy 2, diseases of the liver 2, diphtheria 1, delirium tremens 1, and debility and old age 43. The Borough Engineer, Building Stfrveyor, and the Inspector of Nuisances, reported various particulars of the operations in their several departments during the week, from which it appeared that 185. nuisances com plained of by inhabitants had been inspected and means taken to remedy them ; 1,056 houses in the unhealthiest districts, containing 3,715 apartments, and 822 cellars, had been put under examination, with the view of im proving their sanitary condition. On the recommendation of the sub-committee, it was resolved that the Council be asked to appoint Mr. Wm. Swift Inspector of Smoke Nuisances at a salary of £l5O per annum, Mr. BECKWITU called attention to a letter which hap appeared in the papers the previous day, signed by a Mr. Archer, and complaining that the sewer in Coal-street had not yet been commenced, and that a letter which he had sent on the subject previously had never been read. Mr. Beckwith denied both statements ; and a letter was read from Mr. Ravenscroft, the contractor for the work, stating that the sewer was commenced on the 30th ult. A letter was also read from Mr. Hague, of Everton, complaining of the unprotected state of a quarry, into which a youth had fallen on the previous night and had been killed. The CHAIRMAN said that though the quarry was in a very dangerous state. It was not in consequence of that that the boy had been hurt, for he had first gone into the quarry, and was playing there with other boys.

The number of persons present, was about four hundred. Had the weather been settled there can be no doubt that the party would have been greatly more numerous. LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. RAFFLES.) EGGS AND COFFEE! Mary Brady, the keeperof a provision shop in Stewart-street, charged Sarah Leonard, with the following offence. Mr. liluck opened the case for the prosecution, and from hinstatemant, and the evidence of complainant, it appeared that on the 23rd of July the prisoner went-to the shop of complainant, and, without any provOcation, she Seized on a coffee-pot and "tapped" heron the head, and then laid it .on• her nose, thinking she :night "warm" it on that organ, but it was the nose that got warmed, and not the pot. Some eggs that pre sented their front were then attacked in the rear by the prisoner, and made ti batter" of in double quick time. Not having satisfied her great revenge, she pitched into the window, and smashed two squares of glass, She then put her hand through the broken glass and cut it, for which she charged the son of complainant, and said he stabbed her with a knife. She was so much injured that sbe was obliged to remain in the hospital for sixteen days. She then prosecuted the son of complainant, but the case was dismissedorad then she was taken•up -on the present charge, which being, proved by two witnesses, Mr. Raffles asked what amount of damage bad been sustained, and Mrs. Brady said 5s for the ege and glass. His Worship then fined the prisoner 5s damage and 5s for the assault, or fourteen days' imprisonment. . . , FURIOUS. ASSAULT. A young man named James Devine, was charged for Laving committed a violent assault on Charles Jones. It.appeared that on the night of the Bth June, the parties were in a boarding-house in Gerard-street, and Went to the door together, where they had some words, and the prisoner knocked com plainant down, jumped on his chest, kicked him on the face, and stabbed him in the shoulder. This statement was proved by the complainant and two witnesses. A surgeon stated that he attended the wounded man. and found a deep punctured wound under the . collar bone, the latter being fractured, and the veins divided. He bled a great deal. He was bruised on the head, face, and chest. He was in great danger for three days, but he is going on well now. The prisoner was sent for trial at the sessions. MR. HOLLAND'S WATCH 1 Elias Wharton, a very notorious character; who has been charged from time to time with a variety of offences, was brought up on - a charge of having stolen agold watch from Thomas Holland, who keeps a public house in Gloucester street. Mr. Cobb was for the prosecution, and Mr. Bluck for the prisoner. Mr. Cobb stated the case, •and said that on Tuesday morning about twenty minutes to two o'clock, the prosecutor came to his own doll*, being out during the evening, with two friends, and looked at his watch. He entered the house, and found the prisoner at the bar. The prosecutor went to the place, and having retrained there a long time, it was supposed he fell asleep. The prisoner and a servant girl went to the place to wake him up. The prisoner went into the closet, and closed the door, and would not allow the girl to enter. After some time the girl forced the door, and found the prisoner's hand in Holland's pocket, and the watch was gone. The prosecutor was examined, a.d said be was drunk, but remembered what happened; he had the watch when he went into the closet, where he went asleep. He was awoke by finding some hand in his pocket, and saw it was the prisoner. He thought he had taken the watch, as he (prosecutor) allowed him to do so before, Out he afterwards found the watclf was gone, and then he asked the pri-oner for it. He denied having it, and then he was charged. To Mr. Bluck, tke prosecutor said he was drunk, but knew what he was doing. He had some sherry to drink this morning. The prisoner was a friend of his, and often took care of him when drunk. The servant girl was examined, and proved the opening statement made by Mr. Cobb. She said the prisoner went into the -treet after leaving the closet, end went back to the house again. In reply to Mr. Bluck, she said the prisaner said, when at the closet, that the watch was gone, but he supposed it was all right. A neighbouring woman, who was present, gave a similar version as that given by the servant girl. In reply to Mr. Bluck, this witness admitted her house was not. as-pure as ice or chaste as snow. Mr. Bluck then made a great oration in favour of his client, and contended that a jury could not convict him. His Worship remanded the case for the present. At a subsequent part of the day, the prisoner was again brought up, when, after some further evidence, the prisoner was remanded for further enquiry. (Before Messrs. HOUGHTON and PRESTON.) ASSAULTS BY A SHIP CAPTAIN. Captain John Williams, the master of a ship called the Wild Wave, was summoned by John Ashton, un able seaman, for having assaulted him on the high seas on the 10th July. Mr. Cobb was for the complainant, and Mr. Bluck for the defence. From the statement of Mr. Cobb, in opening the case, and the evidence of Asbton, it appeared that on the 10th July the com plainant was below getting his tea, when the captain called him, and he came up at once and went to work ; the captain said he was laity, and he denied it, when' the captain said he would rope's-end him; he said he had no necessity to do so, as he was doing his duty. soon after doing some work, the captain caught him by the throat, flung him on the deck, knelt on his chest, pounded his headagainst the deck, and otherwise ill-used him. That (continued Mr. Cobb) the complainant had not done anything to merit such conduct, he was paid his wages in full by the captain, who gave him, on his discharge, a very good character. In supp'ort of the charge, the com plainant, Henry Fisher and William Wilmott, sailors, were called, and fully sustained the charge. Mr. Bluck cal!ed Richard Marshall, the mate, and Philip Hopkins, the boatswain, to disprove the case, but they proved nothing. Mr. Houghton said there could be no difference of opinion on the case. They were of opinion that the captain had much exceeded his duty, and therefore they would fine him £5. The same captain was charged by William Wilmott, for hav ing' assaulted him on the 10th of August, off Holyhead. The complainant stated that he was ill, and not able' to go on deck, when the captain caught hold of him by one of his arms that was very bad, and shoved him on deck and injured him. In this ease witnesses were called to sustain the case. Mr. Bluck said his client only wanted the man to look out, as the weather was very hazy. In this ease the bench fined the defendant Is. There was a third charge preferred against the captain by a boy named William Harwood, 10 years of age, who Wa. on board, also for an assault. The lad stated that on the sth July, he was at the wheel, when the chain gut " jammed," and the ship went two points out of her course. He told the captain, when ke said " I will jam your b -- head," and at the same time struck him two or three blows on the head with his hand, and then struck him with a rope across the back six times. He could not help the chain foaling, as it often took place. Mr;Bluck said if ships were allowed to go out of their course, they would be found some line morning at America, or up at the North Pole instead of at Liverpool. He admitted that his client did give the lad a slap for having the ship out of her course. Witnesses were called who proved the assault, and the magistrates fined the captain £2 in this case. BAD MEAT. Inspector Jones summoned Francis Sutton, of Poulain spare, for exhibiting a quantity of beef that waa unfit tor human food. The ease was proved, and the defendant was tined ss. and 4s. 64;1. oosta. THE "AMATEUR DETECTIVE." Mr. Cobb applied to their Worships for a. warrant to arrest John Birtles, of St. John's Market, on a charge of refusing to pay an affiliation order. He had obtained a summons the previous day, but Birtles, the "amateur detective," refused to obey it. [The facts were published in our paper of yester day].. The magistrates ordered a warrant to issue at once. At the Diocesan Registry, on Tuesday last, the Lord Bishop of ittanchester duly licensed the - Rev.

VALUE AND IMPORTANCE OP THE TEETH', The Teeth influence the form and expression of the countenance more than is generally imagined, and the finest face is disfigured if the Teeth are irregular, and a dis agreeable expression is produced. When the Teeth are good and regular, there is, when speaking or smiling, a fascination present which prevents further examination of the countenance. The most striking cases are those persons about the middle period of life who have lost their Teeth; for, how ever clear and perfect their utterance may have been before their Ices, it'is impossible to regain it without sup plying the deficiency by means of Artificial Teeth.
