DEATH OF SIR CRESSWELL CRESSWELL.

We exceedingly regret to announce that this dis-
tinguished judge has ceased to exist. He died yesterday
ensuing, alertly before 7 o'clock, at his residence, No. 21,
Prince's-gate, Knightsbt idge. Although nothing ban trans-
pired respecting the circumstances which immediately pre-
ceded his death, it is but too probable that the melan-
choly event arose from the accident which recently befel
the deceased—namely, a fall from his horse in St. James's-
park on the evening of the 17th which was occasioned
by a collision with Lord Aveland's carriage, and which re.
suited in the breaking of the knee-pan.
Sir Cromwell Cresswell was educated at Emanuel College,
Cambridge, and was called to the bar at the Middle
Temple in 1819. He was made King's counsel in 1834, and
was for some time leader of the Northern Circuit. In
1837 he was elected member for Liverpool, which he con-
tinued to represent till 1842, when he was made one of the
judges of the Court of Common Pleas by the government of
Sir Robert Peel. As is well known, on the establishment of
the new Divorce Court he was appointed Judge Ordinary
to conduct the proceedings of that court, which be is uni-
versally acknowledged to have done with great ability.

the public safety of Sicily. The Senate approved
its clauses.

The same bill was introduced into the Chamber

THE FATAL ACCIDENT AT BIRMINGHAM.

We shall be told that, even supposing cour-
age to be in Well no virtue, the higher noes of men have
always held contempt for danger amongst the noblest
of qualities—the quality, in fact, without which all others
are valueless. This ir.or woman was displacing tbot
contempt, and surely the nation who instituted the Victoria
Crass—aid every man among whom would in his heart
rather earn that Clore than the Christian one—cannot
honestly reprehend a spectacle of which that quality is the
attraction. That is the argument which saved Blondin
when Sir George Grey allowed him to march along the
rope, but forbade him to wheel his daughter, and • grosser
fallacy was never imported into a discussion. Courage
is a Christian quality, for it has its root
in faith, and it may, perhaps, be taught; but the
courage brave men want to teach is that which
deypria danger to oneself, Dot danger to other people. F.:-
Dilations like these may prove courage in the exhibitors—
though they generally prove only absence of bile—and an
early aptitude possessed also by chimney builders and
sweeps ; but they prove and excite nothing bat brutality in
the spectators. Not one of the crowd who shuddered, and
quivered, and howled with delight as the poor woman pared
over their haids, ever dreamed of imitating her, or caught
from her apparent nerve the slightest new incite.

All they acquired was tbe dangerous knowledge—

risk visible without personal danger all other excite-
ment& become at once insipid, the crave which, if once
indulged in, yields that last degradation of the heart the
enjoymeet of cruelty for its own sake without reference to
its results, the instinct which, once developed, produces a
Caligula ot Constantine Aleximdroviteb. The danger, great

AGAINST CLARKS,

William Henry Clarke, the young man who stands
charged with feloniously killing and slaying Elizabeth
Hunter, at Creea-man's•lane, Islington, on the night at
the 30th of March last year, was again placed at the
bar before Mr. Barker for re-examination. The pri-
sooer, who bas a very sharp bat not nnplesaing counts.
name, does not appear to have suffered by his imprison-
ment, and was as self-powered as be has shown himself to
be on the previous occasions.

Mr. John Clerk, barrister, instructed by the Solicitor to
the Trisaary, atteadad to prosecute ; sod Mr. Diokie,
barrister, denuded.

Mr. Clerk, in opening the case for the prosecu-
tion, said that he had the honour to appear, instructed
by the Solicitor to the Treasury, it being considered
one in which the court should be assisted. He had
carefully and anxiously considered the case, and he did not
think that there waa sufficient evidence at present to ask
the court to send the prisoner for trial on the charge of
mar der. He should, therefore, ask the oourt to discharge the
prisoner on the charge of murdering Elizabeth Hunter,
on the 30th of March. Whilst the prisoner would
be discharged on that cue, still he was instructed
to go on with the charges of indecency that
bad come out in the course of this painful inquiry.
The learned gentleman then alluded to a are of indecency
which he stated the prisoner had committed on the 9th of
October, 1861. It wan a strong fact that the prisoner had
made a confession to Mr. Rowe of the facts of that
case. Thus was another charge against the pri-
soner, which occurred in the month of January,
but which he did not intend to proceed with
then. He mentioaed that because be should
go on with that charge at the trial. At that time the
parents would not go on with the charge. There sou
another offence charged in the month of May of this year of
indecency committed by the prisoner at an ice shop. He
should call the witnesses and ask the magistrate to com-
mit the prisoner for trial as these charges.

HUNT C. HEM AND DOM

Dr. Tristram for the Spinks for the
leTitrasa‘Hunt, a greenporter at Upper Norwood, mar-
ried Sarah Fisher in the rear 1852. They bad six children,
of whom three were living. The co-reeposdest, George
Duke, was a confectioner is the same neighbourhood, a
married man with a family. The pleas to dehisce, were a de-
nial, neglect, cruelty, connivance, and adultery. On Saturday,
the 4th of Jan., 1862, the respondent obtained some many
Irons her husand, on pretence of going sho. She
then loft ben home and never retuned. The am. night
Duke also disappeared from Norwood. The respondent bad
been in the frequent habit of visiting his (Dukes) shop, for
the purpone, as she said, of learning bow to make con-
fectionary. They ware traced to Loam), where it was
proved that they had lived together for a fortnight. A
coufession on the part of Hrs. Hunt, that she had com-
mitted adultery with • foreman of her hatband's, named
Reed, was also proved, and some letters of ben were put is
praying for forgiveness, and stating that she was wholly
denitute.
_

For the defence. various members of the respondent's
family deposed to seeing the petitioner strike his wife. Her
mother stated that she had also witnessed familiarities
between him and a girl named Hillyer, now in Australia.
Road, the foreman already referred to, gars evidence of
adinimions showing that the petitioner had been guilty of
considerable proligacy.
On cress-esamination, the witness said his master bed
discharged him on account of a letter which he had received
from the respondent. [This letter was read, and it attn-
hatted the writer's fall to the arts of Heed, who had been
continually informing her of the petitioner's misconduct.
She mid that she had yielded from a mad feeling of revenge,
and that she wished he might rot, and have no one to help
or pity him.] He declined, to say whether her accusation
war true.—The jury found all the parties guilty of adultery.

LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN SHARE

HOLDERS' ASSOCIATION.

On Tuesday s meeting of the members of this
OillOOfigioo was held at Manchester to receive the report of
the committee ; Mr. J. Butterworth in the char. The
Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report, said it was
for principles only for which the association was contending.
Some programs had been made, and by a continuance of the
sanociation, at all events for another year, they might hope
for a great deal more than they had already attained. He
lied every confidence in Mr. Moon, the chairman of the
directors, end he believed that he was the right man in the
right place, and that if Mr. Moon soled entirely
on his own reepoesibilit all things would go on rightly.
Mr. H. Lem eeoo the adoption of the report.
Mr. T. Wrigley addressed the meeting at considerable
length. He said the committee had no desire for power or
plus ; they were actuated by • singleness of purpose, if
possible, not only to benefit themselves and their own pro-
perty, but to do the same good to the thousands of share-
holders to whomthe dividends of the company were matters
of the deepest consequence. He asked the meeting to adopt
the following resolution :—" That the experience derived
from the past operation of the London and North
Western Shareholder 'a Association clearly proves that such
an ,orgaairation offers the only means by which railway
shareholders can secure that legitimate control over then
property which the legislature intended' them to exercise,
whether se regards the elution of directors, or as to the
policy which ought to guide them in the administration of
their property ; and this meeting is of opinion that this se.
sociatMn ought to be continued, and is deserving of the best
support of the proprietors." Mr. R. Fort seconded the
motion, which was carried unanimously. Mr. Outside
moved a resolution to the effect that • petition be drawn up
asking the government to reduce the stamp duties on
prune from 13c1. to Id., which was speed to ; and on the
motion of Mr. Bennett. miconded by Mr. Coward, the meet-
ing was adjourned to the 26th of May, when the question
of the future continuance of the association should be
finally determined.

BERLIN, Ras 4.

In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies
Herr Virchow moved that, according to the consti-
tution, the ministry was not justified in allowing
itself to be represented in that house by commis-
sioners who had not been sworn to fidelity upon the
constitution.

Count von Eulenburg, in reply to a question of
Herr von Carlowits, said that Russian troops had
passed the Prussian frontier. They had been bil-
leted, as it appeared, by private arrangement, and
no objection seemed to have been raised by the
Prussian authorities. He, at least, was aware of
none. As to disarmament of fugitive Russian
troops, such a measure was not required by law,
and no cabinet order to that effect had been issued.
There was nothing of an extraordinary character
in the whole proceeding.

The Nor(kieutache Zeiiung of„to-dayidenies that
Prussia, simultaneously with the second-class
German Powers, had been invited by Frame to
join diplomatic action in reference to the Polish
question.
The same paper denies the rumour that General
Goltz had been despatched upon a mission to Paris,
and declares totally unfounded the intention attri-
buted to Prussia of inviting Austria to join in the
Prusso-Russo convention, as stated in the blue-
book recently laid before the House of Commons.

A flaw one-act comedietta by Mr. T. J. Williams,
entitled the Little &Wind ona produced heal hit night with
moderate swam The main theme of the plot—• pleasing
young widow surrounded by scheming suitors—is so °mutant
*favourite with Preach dramatirt* that we may safely
arnme that Mr. Williams's " new " comedietta is only new
on this side of the Channel. The situations are not remark•
able for freshness, 1110( do the characters rise above those
familiar elements of stage life which bare so often been
shaken op in the dramatic author's kaleidoscope.
The scene is the interior of the cottage of Lefty Haw-
thorn (Miss Adeline Cottrell), • handsome widow and
proprietress of • t•rm. May, her friend (Miss
Marie Wilton), has • brother, • sailor, who is
the accepted suitor of Lefty ; but the sailor is at
sea, and the fair widow is exposed to the temptation
of attentions from a coaceited CaptainClarenceConrtington,
of the Dragoons (Mr. Caste* Murray), and • ridiculous se-
agitated dandy, Mr. Wheedletoo Coaxer (Mr. S. Johnson).
The sailor has • friend at court in his sister May, who has
promised to watch over the widow and defeat the schemes
of his rivals. The " little sentinel" accordingly r►ps their
toes, sprinkles them with a watering pot, and pane them
with apples. May overbear an appointment made by the
flirting widow, to meet the Captain near • ruined tower.
To defeat this she takes an opportunity of feigning to be is
love with the Captain, who, flattered with his sup.
posed 000 quest, leaves the widow to wander, if
she pleases, "wooed and wound the wuined tower." Simi ar
' arts are exercised upon the antiquated beau, and both
are appointed to meet May at the same plan. This as-
sumed love-mixing, however, is witnessed by May's lover—
a young farmer—Simon Oskapole (Mr. C. Fenton), who in

revenge in his turn feigns to make love to the enraged
widow. All is made right by an explaaation of May's real
motives, while the baffled roams retiring discomfited, the
object of the little sentinel is achieved. Mies Marie Wilton
played with spirit ; but the part affords little scope for that
arch and saucy manner which has made her a favourite with
London audiences. Mini Adeline Cottrell, who made her
first appearance after an indisposition, did what little she
had to do quietly and naturally ; and Mr. Creston Murray,
as the foppish Captain, uttered his Dundrearyisma with the
recognised drawl of stage comombry.

ALBERT BRIDGE BILL

Lord CHELMSFORD moved that a bill for permitting
the erection of a bridge between Chelsea and Battersea,
called Albert-bridge, should be referred back to the com-
mittee which had rejected the preamble, stating u his
ground for doing so that the committee declined to receive
additional evidence which had been offered u unnecessary,
and yet decided against the bill.
Lord TAUNTON, the chairman of the committee, de-
fended the conduct of the committee, Mating that a clear
cane was made out that the bill was not necessary to ark -
blish a new proprietary bridge over the Thames with toll in
perpetuity.
A long discussion followed, which ended in a division, in
which the motion was last by 40 to 29.

CASE OF MR. BISHOP.
The Marquis of NORMANBY said be bad received a
mote from the noble earl the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, in which he said he ores oppressed with so severe
a cold as to be entirely rumble to quit the house. If he
were to do so, he said, mid some to London, he feat that he
would not be able to speak eve words. Of course under
these circumstances, he (the Marquis of Normanby) had no
alternative but to postpone the motion he bad on the parr
relative to the imprisonment of Mr. Bishop in Italy. He
regretted this, because many of the friends of this gentle.
man were anxiously awaiting the appeal ad miaerecordiam,
that he was going to make on his -behalf. The noble earl
(Russell) suggested that he should postpone the motion to
Thursday, when he would move th►t it should have prece-
dence of the orders of the day. But as such a cold as that
which the noble lord had described was not likely to leave
bun in a couple of days he would ex Monday next for the
motion.

STRAND.

The performances at this house were varied last
eight by the production of "a new sod original fame" by
Xr. Horace Wigan, whose pen hen contributed so much to
the amusement of Olympic audiences ; but Goggins's Ging-
ham (such is the name of the piece) will hardly add to the
author's reputation. It belongs to the old school of mysti-
fication farces, and turns chiefly upon a young gentleman
named Goggins (Mr. Charles Rice) lending a " gingham" or
umbrella to a lady whom he meets in a railway carriage:
Goggins encounters the lady the game evening at the play,
and by a strange coke:ideane takes aphis quarter, at the Isms
hotel. The lady terns out to be one Mrs. Evermay, an
oMoer's—that Is to say, a sheriff's °Moses— widow, to
whom the uncle of Gogpos is about to be married. Goggins's
node in a fit of jealousy disinherits him ; Goggins's intended
father-in-law, Cutts (Mr. J. W. Ray), rejects his claim to
his daughter's nd ; and O'Brady (the lady's brother), a
terrible military officer (Mr. H. Turner), chslleogee, him.
The discovery of the lady in a closet in Goggins's room,
where 'be had taken refuge, briop the jealousy and anger
of Goggins's tormentors to a climax ; but after some further
embarrammenta an opportune explanation satisfies all par-
ties, and relieves the impetuous Goggins from a promise of
marriage which he had been induced to make in writing to
Mrs. Evermay, in consideration of having compromised her
character. The audience were in good temper ; but DO all
was made for the author.

THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 8, 1863.

MUSIC.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Mr. Sims Reeves appeared here last night u
Edgard° in bonisetti's Lucia di Lammermoor, the remain- ,
ing cast being, as in former representations. Lucia, Ildlle-
Thiene Enrico, Signor Gamier; Normans°, Signor Soldi,
ke. Edgardo is one of Mr. Sims Reeves' best impersona-
time ; both as a singer and an an actor our English tenor
may challenge comparison with any former representa-
tire of the Master of Ravenswood, whose unhappy fate bas
been so melodiously set by the Italian =metro. Mr.
Reeves' performance of the part presented the same points
of excellence u on former occasions. His singing in the
pathetic paasagee was marked by suave expression and
tenderness, while in the more passionate situations his
declamatory power was displayed with most dramatic
effect. The well-known malediction, " Maledottc, min
Madan*" when he believes Lucia to bare wedded
another, was delivered with the utmost energy of
dramatic and musical expression. The performance, indeed,
throughout was of a high order, and was greeted with the
warmest applause, Mr. Reeves being called on at the
end of each act. Mdlle. Titian, as Lucia, invests
that unhappy heroine with all the romantic interest
which belongs to her sad fate ; while the German
prima donna executes the florid music of the part with the
fluency and ease of Italian vocalisation. The applause was
pretty evenly balanced, as, indeed, were the merits, be-
tween the two principals, who were well supported by that
painstaking and carotin artist, Signor Gassier. The opera
was extremely well given throughout, and the performance
altogether was one to satisfy all lovers of that conventional
school of Italian musical art.

KENT v. ENGLAND.

Yesterday wu another 61:10 day for cricket, and Lord's
Ground was again well attended. Play wu resumed soon
after twelve o'clock by Kent continuing their innings.
Windier (not out with 23) was faced by Mr. Ralson, Jack-
son and Tarrant being the bowlers. Wisher added two
more to his score, and was then dismissed by Jackson. His
25 were skilfully gained, and comprised three 4'a, a 3, and
•2. Sewell made a good stand, and batted extremely well,
but unfortunately got run out after making 28, made by •
4. two 3's, a 2, and singles. The only other double figures
were reached by Wenman, who contributed 13, in which were
a 4 and a 3. Total of the innings, 121. The bowling and
fielding of England was very good. The wickets fell in the
following order :—Ono for 13, two for 15, three for 15, four
for 31, five for 38. mix and neves for 58, eight for 67, nine
for 109, ten for 112, eleven for 115, and twelve for 121.
Being 109 in • minority, they followed their innings, but
failed to run the number of runs off. Fryer batted well for
ld, and Windier again contributed 25, comprising a fine
drive for 5, two 4's, two 3's, and a 2. Goodhew exhibited
some good batting in his score of 21 among his figures were
three and two re. Mr. Barber in bin twelve made some
time hits, one for four, and two for three each. Tarrant's
bowling was splendid; be gained ten wickets. Jackson
and Wutton also bowled. The out-fielding was well up to
the mark. The *Likens fell than :—Orie for 17, two for 20,
three for 23, four for 64, five for 71, six and seven for 79,
eight for 92, nine for 93, ten for 97. eleven and twelve for
104. Thum Eleven of England defeated Thirteen of Kent in
