WANDSWORTH.

THE LATE FATAL FIGHT.--COMMITTAL FOR MANSLAUGHTER.
Willtnm Orr and James Smirk were re-examined on the
charge of causing the death of John Smith.
James Boucher, a lighterman, who was examined to-day,
said he saw the fight, and heard the deceased say after the
second round, " I'll give you in best, and I'll fight you any
other day when lam sober." Gee replied, "Oh, we'll have
another road." They bad soother round, at the end of
which they both fell to the ground. In the fourth round
both fought as well as they could. He saw Gee strike the
deceased in the face, and he fell back on his head. Wit-
ness said to Smith, " He is dead to the world, you pick him
up." Smith tried to pick him up, but let him fall tack
again with his head against the ground.
The depositions having been completed and read over the
prisoners were committed for trial for manslaughter.
It was mentioned that a coroner's inquest had been held
on the body of the deceased, and the jury returned a verdict
of manabitighter against Gee only.

THE GERMAN QUARREL

In Tuesday's sitting of the German Diet the
treaty of peace was communicated by Austria and
Prussia. Saxony, faithful to the position she has
maintained in this matter, then made a proposition
asking the Diet to decide whether the federal exe-
cution must be considered to have terminated, and
this proposition was referred to the committees.
The Assembly, then, acting upon a report of the
Saxon General Hake, commander-in-chief of the
federal troops, who asked for new instructions,
pronounced in favour of a proposition of
Bavaria, by the terms of which General Hake
is enjoined not to abandon his position in the
Duchies until fresh orders. Judging from Prussia's
conduct in this sitting, in which she maintained all
her pretensions iu the most energetic terms, the
quarrel seems to be approaching an actual collision.
If we may believe some of the Prussian journals,
M. de Bismarck is determined not to recede though
he affronts the whole of Germany, including
Austria. He dreams, it is said, of nothing less
than annexing to Prussia the whole of the north of
Germany, having satisfied himself of the neutrality
of the great European powers.

(Stamped, Id. Additional.)

,Sir Roderick Murchison and Professor Phillips
also belong to the older geological epochs ; indeed
one cannot help remarking how few of the
younger geologists seem to be ready to aid with
their observations in the field the theories and
speculations of their teachers. However, we have
in the Museum here some of the wonderful lime-
stone rock of Canada, brought home by Sir W. E.
Logan, and probably in the Sections the
more practical work of Geology will be seen to be
going on ; but truly, if there be one of the natural
sciences more involving vast theories than another,
It seems just now to be Geology. There is some-
thing particularly interesting to hear these theories
canvassed and debated, as they are in the Sections,
with all the vigour imaginable, by men who must
have reached beyond the threescore and ten. As
to Sir Roderick Murchison, although his voice is
not quite so resonant as when I listened to his
address through a speaking trumpet in the lime-
stone caverns of Dudley, which seems quite a slice
of a glacial period since, yet his manner is as
decisive, his view as clear (perhaps clearer), and his
speeches as perspicuous as ever.
This meeting is "going off," it is considered,
capitally and brilliantly ; that is to say, there are
more ladies attending the sections than was
ever known (nearly a thousand already).
This fact was announced with very considerable
enpresseneent by theyoungest of the Secretaries, and
was received with a very audible mingling of sighs
from the swans and titters from the ordinary
mortals who crowded the theatre last night. The
Soiree at the Assembly rooms to-night is expected
to be worthy of the fame of Bath and the glories of
Beau Nash and all the other celebrated ghosts that
haunt the precincts. Meanwhile, gossip seems to
oscillate between Bishop Coleus° and Dr. Living-
stone. The address of the intrepid missionary
explorer is regarded as the culminating point of
interest ; and the curious question whether Bishop
Coleuso will by any chance find a "platform,'
and what would be the consequences if he did,
seems to be the next most exciting topic of talk
among the miscellaneous visitors of the British
Association.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS

MA RIE-LAN E. -(THIS DAY.)

Although only a limited quantity of Eoglish wheat wan
on offer io our market to-day, the demand for all kinds yes
in a sluggish state at llooday's decline in the quotations.
The samples generally were in fine condition. We were wen
supplied with foreign wheat. Good and floe qualities wens
held at full currencies ; but the sale for them was much re-
stricted. Low nod damp palmed* were heavy, and almost
nominal in value. . .

—.-.—..-
The demand for floating aerials of grain, especially barley.
was far from active. In prime, however, very little change
took place.
There was a moderate inquiry for most descriptions of
barley. on former terms. The supply was only moderate.
Malt moved off slowly ; nevertheless, the quotations woe
well supported.
Oats were in good supply and sluggish request, at &beet
previous rates.
Beans were quite as dear; but owing to the want al
supply the transactions in them were trifling.
The sale for peas was steady, on former terms.
No champ took place in the value of either English or
foreign flour. The trade, however, was somewhat heavy.
The transactions in seeds and cakes were limited, at
previous quotations.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(nom ou owl' comserommir.)
PARIS, THURSDAY ETINC4O.

The all-engrossing topic is Sweden and her con-
duct to Denmark. That conduct does not give one
the idea of the near formation of Scandinavia. The
lifuniteur remarks that we have at present only the
Danish account. People say it is curious to see
how Sweden turned in the same orbit as England,
encouraging resistance and then withdrawing.
Verbal promises were first given to the late King,
and an alliance offensive and defensive was agreed
upon. Sweden was to send Denmark 20,000 men in
case of need. The Danish cabinet wished these
agreements committed to paper, but this was re-
sisted at Stockholm. Frederick died, and the
Swedish cabinet told the Danes that the posi-
tion was by no means changed by that
event. War approached. Lord Russell in-
voked the treaty of London but would not fight
alone. Sweden had the same hesitation about
plunging into the contest single-handed. England
had counted on France, Sweden had counted on
England, but France not moving, the other two
powers were reduced to look on. But if this was the
conduct of England and Sweden, has not France
taken up the running and commenced her term of
abuse 1 Her official organs speak as harshly of the
German powers as any Swede or Englishman feels.
Members of her government allude to Federal ex-
ecution as a sort of letter of marque launched by the
Diet. " This family execution may appear mild and
amicable, but the commission once abandoned to
the strongest soon becomes violent and implacable ;
these persons authorise themselves to plunder terri-
tories, and when once they hold them in their
greedy hands they clothe this ambitious act with
the appellation of `conquest'" These words of M.
Dupin were printed in the Moniteur.
The Pays of this evening sneers at the Austrian
press for complaining that the negotiations are not
Progressing.
We are told that the vessel which arrived off
Bremerhaven is not another Alabama, commanded
by Captain Semmes, but a new Prussian war
frigate which Minister Boon has had the politeness
to name the Victoria. England will feel flattered
at the compliment.

THE POLICE COURTS.

MANSION•ROUS&

Richard dayliff, Charlet Critchley, sad Dimas Swift,
were brought op oil remand before Mr. Aldeemen
charged with &Making by mesas of • fmed eider • quatity
of wedding from Mews. Edward' Deacon, of Trump- ,
ty.
There
Oi
There were originally two other persona included in this
charge, named (leave Harding and Janes Herding, but
they were discharged at a subsequent examination. The
goode, it will be remembered, were obtained by means of
au order which purported to some from Messrs. Maple sax'
Co., upholeteren, of Tottenham-court-road, but it wu
found that the order was • forgery. The case has been
remanded from time to time in order to afford the officers,
Behar and Illeod, who had charge of the owe,
an opportunity of apprehending the prisoner Swift,
who kept out of the way end managed to elude the vigi-
laoce of the officers until Thursday morning, when they err.
preheoded him at • house in Edward-street, Btrosbury-
I road, and be was placed at the bar with the other two
prisoners, Bayliff and Critchley. He was identified by
Mr. Edwards as the man who presented the order, and also
by the wines. Dodd, the carman es the man who socom-
panied Bayliff at the time the cart was hired to remove the
wadding. It will be remembered that the wedding wu
found, • few days after the fraud bad been committed,
packed in • @bed which was used ea • workshop by the eldw
Harding, who stated that be had let the shed on the same
day to • man who gave his name as Swift, end who maid be
was an upholsterer, and who placed the goods there. He
said, however, yesterday, that the prisoner who now gave
the name of Swift was not the men he saw.
The three prisoners were finally committed for trial upon
the charge of obtaining the wool, and the two prisoners,
Bayliff and Criteldey upon several other charges in which
they had obtained a quantity of varnish and three hydralso
pumps and • quantity of valves from different firms by
means of forged orders, the particulars of which have al-
ready appeared.
Detective officer Baker said be had other cues against
the prisoners, but he thought those already proved would be
sufffeient, and he remarked that it was through the pub-
licity that had been given by some of the papers that the
numerous charges bed been brought to light.

James Dwyer, alias Dario, and George Green, were
brought tip OD warrants, charged with violently resulting
polimoonstables Todd, 261 M, and Hunnysell, 2.36 M, two
officers of that division of the metropolitan police.
The evidence in the case showed that at half-past two
o'clock on the previous morning a group of young fellows,
including the pprisoners, were seen outside a low coffesdiop
at Dockhand, Bermondry, creating a great disturbance sad
, illtreating an old man. The officer Hunnyeell interposed,
and desired them to go home, when be was set upon by the
gang, but he succeeded in capturing one of the delinquents,
and was conveying him to the police station, when be was
followed by six or seven of the fellows, brutally enrolled.
and his prisoner rescued from his custody. His brother con-
stable, Todd, aims up to his assistaoce, and in like manner
wu assailed the the gang in the moat rut:Emily manner. The
two prisoners were fully identified u having been ringleaders
in the onslaught.
The magistrate said the attack made upon the officers was
both ruffianly and cowardly. It appears that eight or ten
men first assaulted one of the constables, and then directed
their brutality against another ; ten men upon two was, he
repeated, mostruffirly and au-English. He convicted them
lof both assaults, and ordered them to pay a penalty of 23e.
each, or, in default, to be kept to hard labour in the House
of Correction for one calendar month. The defendants ware
removed in the prison van.

that there are proofs of human existetcs in times of higher
antiquity, not only than that of the cavern bone-bed, but
that of the Betvla Sara bed on Bovey plain. Man, he says,

gelphed rivers carry into caverns their osaeoua deposits, and

Smyth took part, all of whom agreed in the viswexpouoded
ley Mr. Poogelly, who, having said a few words in reply,

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

VISIT OF THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA
TO HUNGARY.

The Oat Deutsche Post says of the approaching
journey of the Emperor Francis Joseph to
Hungary :
The visit of his Majesty the Emperor to limply has
more importance for Austria than all the interviews of
princes at watering place'. Its apparent object is purely
military, but the circumstance that this is the flat
time that his Majesty has entered Hungary since the
publication of the diploma of October and of the ionstitu
tion of February, the visible animation which has been pro
dosed for some days past amongst Hungarian parties, and 1
especially amongst old conservatives, the presence at
' Vienna of Baron de Bath. who directed the internal affairs
of Austria for twelve yean, till the diploma of October
and the constitution of February had upset his policy—all
this gives the journey of the Emperor a degree of
hope, expectation, and vain aspiration, which it would be
very difficult to analyse. What we hope and expect from his
Majesty's visit is that it will bring op the Hungarian question
once more. We do not in the least apprehend the dan
genus influences with which pawns threaten us when they
speak of old conservatives. What we believe and hope
is that this journey of the Emperor will accelerate the con.
vocation of the Hungarian Diet, and as the assembling of
this Diet is, in our opinion, the only means of arriving at a
speedy solution, we are perfectly indifferent to the influence
by which it is brought about.

The following telegram has been received at Mr.
Reuter's office from the Peninsular and Oriental
Steam Navigation Company :

HAMMERSMIIB.

Eliza Payne, a pact- lo;lasswcoann, was placed in the
dock, charged with lb* following offence.
Mr. F. K. Hobbs, the superintendent of the Ftromptoo
Cemetery, stated that between three and four o'clock on
Wednesday afteraoon the prisoner was brought to him by
one of their workmen, who said that a lady had called his
attention to her, as she had been stealing flowers from four
different Knives. Wittier produced some of the flowers she
bad with her. She admitted stealing the flowers, and said
she was very sorry for it. She bed a pair of scissors with
her with which she bad cut the flowers.
Mr. Derma told the prisoner that if the graves belonged
to her she had no right, strictly speaking, to cut the flowers,
and very properly so. Persona bad wattmeters to plant
flowers, bet they bad no right to pall them up antis.
Mr. Hobbs said the practice of stealing the flowers from
the graves in the Cemetery occurred very frequetitly, and
they were tumble to detect it in all cases. It gave them a
great deal of trouble.
The orisoser repeated that she was very sorry for what
she had dose. _ _ . .

MR. STANBPRLD.

On the order for going into committee of supply,
Sir H. STRACEY moved that the statement of the Pro-
eureur.General on the trial of Greco, implicating a member
of this house and of her Majesty's government in the plot
for the assamination of our ally the Emperor of the French,
deserved the serious consideration of this house. The hon.
baronet, reverting to the remarks made on • former night
by Mr. Stansfeld in defence of M. Muriel, observed that,
although the boo. gentleman had declared that Haulm
was incapable of committing assassination, be had not
ventured to assert that he was incapable of instigat-
ing to assassination, and he thought it would have
been more becoming on the part of the hon. member
if, instead of Mendips that person in such an irritable man-
ner and with such awaggeriog tonee—f" oh, oh")—he had
expremed his regret. Moreover, he did not think that the
conduct of the government could be looked upon as English
or straightforward, or add to the respect in which this
country was held abroad. On the contrary, he feared that
it would only increase that load of humiliation from which
we were now suffering. With the chain of evidence that
was in existence, he appealed to the house whether the
Procureur-Geseral Irma not justified in making the remarks
that were attributed to him. The motion he now made
was rendered necessary, be thought, because the explana-
tions of the boa. member on previous occaaions had been
nosatinfactory, and compromised the dignity alike of the
house and the country.

TO IXI INKS OF TIM 1121111115.

Bia,—There was a member for Finsbury once
who distinguished himself by securing Praire and homer-
able treatment for the liaise exile, Signor Mantle. We
hare now a member for Finsbury who is as zealous far an
inquisitorial inspection of Massines oorrespondenoe as Mr.
Thomas Dunoombe was for keeping one honour unstained.
I ask my brother electors if the late appearance of Mr. Cox
as, virtually, an agent of the French police and persecutor of
the chief of the Italian party of unity—is not too much
for their endurance I it has always been in the opinion of
many a scandal on the intelligence of the borough that Mr.
Cox should represent Finsbury in the House of Commons.
If he continues to do so, it it al be an insult to the
memory of the veteran member now in his grave, and •
scandal to our Itheralism. Mr. Cox's speech and vote last
night ought to separate him for ever from the representa-
tion of Finsbury. I hope some expression of opinion to
this effect will at owe be heard in the borough.—l am, kc.,

The object of this suit was to obtain a decree declaring
that the Solicitors' and General Life Insurance Company

stances :—lt appeared that the insured effected a policy on
his own life, which was subject to the conditions that
nothing should beusble under it in cue of the enured
dying by his own except to mortpgees or snipe./
for value. The mortgaged the policy together
with other property belonging to him, and afterwards
committed suicide. The plaintiffs paid the amount
due to the mortgagee out of the policy money,
and they now sought to have it declared that they stood in
the situation of sureties, and ought to be recouped out of
the other mortgaged property.
The Vice-Chancellor was of opinion that the position of
principal and surety did not arias in this cue, and conse-

THE YEOMANRY AND THE GOVERNMENT. —The
scheme of the ministry to reduce the army estimates for
the coming financial year, by not calling out the Yeo-
manry Cavalry for training, which was only carried by a
.najority of one, has been further considered, and on Wed-
nesday lord POntoiton annowired, in reply to a deputa-
tion which waited upon him at Cambridge nous, that the
government bad resolved to 'bastion the economy contem-
plated, and that the yeomanry would be called out as
usual. The premier said that within the last few days ad-
vices bed beau received from New Zealand which were so
(avowable, that the government would be enabled to effect
a saving upon the roxnates, used incur the expaees of
training of the yeomanry, without any addition to the gross
amount. Hecomplitneuted the Yeomanry Cavalry upon
their high state of efßeieocy, and the value of their aeresess
whenever they bad beet required, and expressed an na-
-1 qualified opinion that they were a ocoassary auxiliary to
