THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 8, 1862.

Alderman Abbias said he hoped the volunteers would not
require compulsion to pay the amounts due.

EX.POBIIII6 BAD 111 AT FOB BALL
Mr. Dawson, a petty salesman ieNewgate-market, was
summoned before Alderman Abbios for unlawfully exposing
for sale six loins of pork, which werealleged to be Ina putrid
state, and unfit for human food.

Mr. Stuchbury, on behalf of the Commissioners of
Sewers, said that, notwithstanding the recent prosecutions
for sending bad meat to market, as much as two tons of
diseased meat had been seized, within the last week, in
Newpte-market. The commissioners were therefore de.
termined to prceecute to the utmost all persons sending to
or gelling had meat in the market.
Inspector Newman said on Saturday night last he saw six
long loins of pork on the defendants stall board. It was
among other meat which was for sale. The loins were in a
very putrid state, and totally unfit for human food. The
defendant gave 1 id. per lb. for them, and if they had been
good meat they would have been worth 6d. per lb. He
seized the meat, and the defendant promised not to offend
again if he would overlook it.
The defendant said the meat had turned bad from the
state of the weather.

Dr. Letheby said the meat was in a fearfully putrid state,
and dangerous to the life of anyone partaking of it.
Alderman Abbias said it was • very serious case, and he
was determined to deal with the defendant in the some
manner that he would with all others brought before him
for such offences.
The defendant was then fined 101. and costs.
OLERHEN WELL.
• CRUZL MOTFIEB.

Hannah Elliatt,• dirty- mg woman, who had a large
display of gaudy flowers and ribbons on her bonnet, was
charged before Mr. Barker, at the instance of the authori-
ties of the parish of Clerkenwell, with deserting her two
children, Fanny Elliott, aged about ten years, and Alice
Elliott, aged about seven years, at Clerkenwell.
It appeared from the evidence of Thomas Warren, the
constable of the parish, that the prisoner, who is a widow,
and a needlewoman, has led a very dissipated life. She for
some time received out-door relief, but as she went into
another parish to cohabit with a man the relief wag stopped.
After a short time she left this man and picked up with
another, and about two months since deserted her two
children. She look them to the ruins at Clerkenwell and
told them to sit there and beg, and at night to sleep under
the arches. After they had been out a day and a night, and
were in a starving state, someone who knew them took com-
passion on them and gave them some bread. A police-con-
stable brought the children to the workhouse, and they had
been at the country school ever since. He apprehended the
prisoner the previous night at a beer-shop, when she was
the worse the liquor.
The prisoner said she would not deny the charge, but sbo
had left her children because she thought that the parish
were better able to look alter them than she was. She had
troubled herself quite enough about the children.
Mr. Barker said that there could not be the slightest
doubt but that the prisoner was a most profligate mother.
He should mark his sense of her conduct by sending her to
the House of Correction with hard labour for two calendar
mouths.

The prisooer, on being removed, said, " Thank you ; 1
should have thought it would have been more."

MARLBOROUGH,STREET.
oveßchowpixo OP OUSIBUBI.

Benjamin Wallis, conductor of omnibus 6,504, badge
2,063, was charged on a summons before Mr. Knox, by Wm.
Love, the prosecuting officer of the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with carrying upon the
omnibus a greater number of passengers than the omnibus
was constructed to carry.
Mr. Love said this was one of the cues which the so-
ciety, with a view to prevent nunecasary suffering to
horses, were desirous to supprew. On the •foth ult., one of
the closing days of the Exhibition, two of the societ's
offioers—Temperley and Young—at half-Feat nine in the
morning, saw the defendant's omnibus in Piocadilly, fall in-
side, and the horses labouring hard to draw the load. The
officers stopped the vehicle, and found there were four
more passengers outside than the number the omnibus was
constructed so carry.
Defendant admitted that be was guilty.
Mr. Knox said that half-past nine in the morning was a
busy time with omnibuses when persons were going in sad
out of town to business. That, however, did not justify the
defendant in infringing the law. Defendant appeared to
have been convicted before of a similar offence by the en-
dorsement on his license.

The defendant was fined 10s. and costs, or seven days.
Tbe fine was paid.

The following's from the monthly silk circular of
Mecum. Durant and Co., dated yesterday :
We have had •month of fair business in silk at gradually
stiffening prices—the usual effect of the increase in the
value of money being oounteractedby televams from China
reporting
.small settlements and a falling off in the arrivals
from the interior. The deliveries are veil large, but the
importations being still larger, we aresgain left with an in-
erased stock. Japan silk has until within the last week
been in great favour, but is now comparatively neglected,
buyers having for the moment supplied themselves. Can-
ton silk has improved a little is demand, but without at
present any alteration in its relatively low price. In Bengali
the demand continues to be limited to native silk and se-
cond-class filatures, in which a fair business has been done
—European filatures, except those reeled in the coarser .
vises, remain neglected. In Persian silk there is leas doing,
and the business of the month has been unimportant.
