At noon the Mayor (Mr. Thos. Harris) announced
the final date of the poll, and declared the votes to hays
been reeorded as follows:—
Mr. Stanford (conservative) 607
Mr. Bowyer (whip)
Mr. Norton (liberal)
The announcement called forth a loud and continuous
cheering from the weneervatives.
Mr. STANFORD said he felt so overcome, or so
inadequate to explain hie sentiments, or give expression to
the feelings that actuated his breast, as he did at that moment.
He would nos enter into a diseuseion of political questions,
bat content himself with thanking them heartily, cordially,
sod sincerely, fur the support they had given him, by which
he had been placed in the honourable and distills/edged pa
sition of being the representative in parliament for the
borough of Reading.
Mr. NORTON (the liberal) having addressed the
peop:e,
The proceedings were brought to a close by a vote of
thanks—ptopose d by Mr. Stanford, and seconded by Mr.
Norton—being formally mused to the Mayor.
Toe honouralde member afterwards went through the
ceremony of " chairing."
The town resumed its usual quietude at an early hour in
the evening, and the election thus passed off more orderly
seed peaceably than for many years past.

Wine i bed Cold.
Mr. Henry Mend, &thereof facies, proved having Nisei
33 Coombe, &Mishits of pass, 16 combs of beaus, 106 combs
of melt, and 12 Month 3 bushels of barley, from the premises
of the bankrupt after his goods were seised. The malt and
barley was sold, and perdue& 1471. 61.
Mr. Palmer said, the reams why he bad introduced the
last witneeemae, to claim a set-off of the 1471. res. from the
1,1881. bathes the verdict thould not be in favour of his
clients.
It was understood between the learned Counsel that a sett-
off of the sun in question should be allowed.
Mr. S'ejeent Bytes, in replying upon the whole este, sub-
mitted that, as the bankrupt absented himself on the
28th of December, 1848 from his eta d at Boom market,
where there were creditors waiting for him, clamorous for
payment, that act -war in itself, he contended, en act of
bankruptcy. It wee also clear that the defendants knew at
that ,time how the bankrupt was circumstanced, for the
execution was written for on the 31st of December, 1848, and
it came down, and wee seht in upon the premises of the
bankrupt on the let Jan. 1849. The learned serjeant con-
cluded his address by contending that an act of bankruptcy
had been committed by Crisp en the 28th Dec. 1848. If
the jury elsonld be of that opinion, of which he had no doubt,
the must find a verdict for the plaintiff.
The jury returned a 'verdict for the plaintiff—Damages

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.
Lamar's, A170176T 6.
The guise commission for North Lancashire was opened
here on Wednesday. before Mr. Justice Wightman and Mr.
Jostle* Patteson. The butiness of both courts was fixed to
commence the followieg morning, at 11 o'clock. The calen-
dar is unusually light, there being only twelve cases; of these
two are for concealment of birth, one for manslaughter, and
one, which excites a good deal of local interest, from the pro-
minent station filled by the prosecutor, for an alleged assault
with a horsewhip on a washer of the Lancaster town coun-
cil. The others are ordinary wagons cam. No cause of
the slightest public interest bad been entered fir trial up to
Tuesday evening.

GERMANY.

PRUSSlA.—According to intelligence from Berlin,
of the might of the 4th mat., it appears that it is
model in political circles that the chambers will not
beeping, as at AM proposed, on the 26th inst., but
en lbe 18th March, up to which latter period also the
dly, it is addtd, will be kept in a state of siege. It
le ealcu'ated that out of the 3,800,000 Prussian else-
brain the primary degree, not less than 2,400,000 be-
hests the working classes, in other words, to the
setsgery of persons depending on their daily wages.
The extreme democrats are resolved to contest the
=ity of the convocation of a first chamber, and to
steps on the second chamber for declaring the
acts of the former null and void. It is rumoured that
Prussia proposes to confer the executive power of
Germany in a confederate sameil, to be composed of
members chosen by the six or seven "circles of the
empire" into which (according to the Prussian plan)
the states of Germany are to be divided, Austria,
Prom* and Bavaria forming the first circle.
The elections for the second chamber terminated on
the 6th inst. at Cologne, in favour of the democrats,
Herr Hyland Dr. Schneider having been returned by
a large majority. The greatest excitantnt prevailed
during the day, but the vast majority of the inha-
bitant' were in too good humour (on account of the
sateen of their two friends) to create any disturb-
moss. The democrats of Cologne expect much from
the ideate and honesty of purpose of Dr. Schneider, a
banister.

PAILS, Wannunse, 610 r.x.
M. tie Lesser returned to Paris from Italy this
morning. It appears that his stage of mind is such as
to cause some anxiety. He had an interview with
the President of the Republic. Thus the rumours of
the disavowal of this plen,potentiary turn out to be
founded on fact. Tee message of the president has
not been reed to-day in the Legislative Assembly, nor
is it known when this desirable event is to take pine.
Various causes are wiped for this. Some say that
time is beiog gained, until the Prenzh force has en-
tered Rome. Others assign as a reason that the pre-
sident has refused as yet to oommunicate the messege
to his ministers.

MR. BURFORD'S PANORAMA OP THE VALLEY AND CITY OP

KASHMIR.
This panorama (of which the private view took
place yesterday) is another successful effort to win the
famine of the public.
The fresh blush of the distant mountain, the sunny undu-
lations of the valley and the thickly-inhabited city, fora a
light cheerful picture. et which the minutest details show the
easeful and conscientious study of the criginal sketches of
H. Tian. which have been thus Weasantly furbished up.
Mr. Burford explains that the present is not a tempera
painting, bat a bona fide oil picture. This was warmly
nearmary, as the former bas the firetcreen stamp always
marked ea it ; whereas. this really ranks as a work of art.
The interest of the picture is increased by the introduction of
elhestritua persoaages, elsphanta with their gorgeous trap-
pings, and Sikh stoostrentsats. None of Um appendages of
/astern poetry have been omitted. In fact, a very fitment
boar may be spent in the valley of Rashmir by taking the
overland journey to Leicester-square.

gentlemen acti myself, el coonecttd with Mr. Perry's bank-

pn•pose of pulline op the river, and we ultimately agreed to
go to Tottenham in a four-oared galley. Oa our return we

Myself and one other Mall to shore, two dung to the beat

PICKING THZ POCKIT Or ♦ POLICe MAONITIULTII.
John Collins was placed at the bar on a charge of picking
the pocket of Mr. Cottingbans, the magistrate, of a silk
handkerchief.
Mr. Cottinghsm, upon being sworn, stated that on the
preceding evening, while on his way from the court to his
residence, and just as he had passed the Victoria Theatre, he
felt &snatch at his pocket, and instantly missed his hondker.
chief, which he had used bat two or thr. e minutes before.
Observing the prisoner moving away. and having ue doubt
he woo the person who had committed tne robbery, he called
out " &op thief;' but he got away, and he (Mr. Coqing-
ham) on seeiro a pc:lceman, gave him information of his los.,
and a description of the prisoner. Oa that morning, while
proceeding to Southwark court, he sew the prisoner in com-
pany with two other men, and having at once recognised
him as the person whip had robbed him of his handker-
chief, he approached him, but the Ins ant he (the prisoner)
saw him, he took to his herds, and he fol-
lowed him, and ultimately gave bins Into custody.
He (Mr. Cottingltans) was surprised and grieved to find
that though the street was crowd. d at the time, and that the
people heard his czy out "Stop thief," and caw the pH-

sneestr run, yet not one of them made the slightest effort to
Toe prboner boldly denied the charge, and said his mason
for running away in the first [prance was the fear that Mr.
Cottiegbarn should give him • month'. imprisonment for
loft., iv about.
Police-oonstable William Romaine said be had known the
prisontr for seven or eight years to be a notations thief.
lie was sentenced to two months' imprisonment from this
court a short time since for a similar cffenee, end had only
bees discharged from prison on Saturday last. He was an
atwedate of Sale, who bad been hanged for the murder of
Hr. Bellehambers, and was daily in the company of the
wort characters.

Mr. Norton told the prisoner that if he persisted in assert-
ing his innocence of the chirp he should send him before a
jury, but if not, and as it was not the wish of Mr. Cottiog-
ham to press (*wan extreme punishment, he should deal with
the ease summarily.
The prisoner replied that Mr. Cottinghun was mistaken
in his person.
R =sine stated that when he saw the prisoner at the sta-
tion-house, he said to him—" Why, Jack, didn't you know
Mr. Cottingham ? You ought, for you have been before
him," and he replied that he did not know him at the time.
The prisoner at length acknowledged his guilt, and was
committed to the house of correction for two mottos.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4.
Ties wearisome discuadon on the Rate in Aid has
at length come to a close. There never was a debate
so protracted in which a wider range of irrelevant
topics was taken by common consent, and few con-
troversies of equal bitterness have been ever waged,
in which the poiot in eispute has been more fre-
quently lost sight of altogether.
In part this somewhat strange characteristic may
doubtless be attributed to the striking diversion
executed early in the contest by Sir ROBERT PEEL.
When he thinks fit tolead, whithersueve r it be, 'tis hard
fur others not to f Mow. His isolated tenor, like the
measured tone of the opheiclide towering above the
ordinary instruments of sound, fascinates attention
and directs the most listless ear. It is to no purpme
that the small fifers and pertinacious drummers strive
every now and then to remind the audienca of their
penance and participation. Many attempts to resume
the big-bold-boy ism of the former discussions were made
during the late debate, but uniformly with the same
result. Nobody believed in the gaseonado of Ulster ;
nobody felt inclined to listen to pettifogging pleas in
favour of the rate in aid. On all hands it has been
long since set down as an inefficient, inadequate, ill-
considered expedient, not deserving of any praise, but
as little worthy of the blame and obloquy that have
been for factious purposes hurled against et.
The consequence of such a state of feeling naturally
was that when Mr. DISRAELI, Lord JORN RUSSELL,
arid Mr. Baron applied themselves to the real sub-
ject uppermost in men's minds—namely, Sir ROBERT'S
plan—they excited at once all the attention which
their various talents seldom fill to obtain. It is not
unworthy of remark that, just in proportion es they
frankly owned their conviction that them etas much
good in the scheme thus enunciated, so did t:;ey in
the favour of their anchtory ; while their c iti-
tive failure to produce effect was memo able
by the comparative disposition to cavil and

AUSTRIA.—Our correspondent writes :
" VIENNA, MAacii 30.
" According to the details which have arrived con-
cerning the b.,:tle of Noverre, it has b-en one of those
victories of which two or three would anibilate the
victor. The number of troops engaged in the conflict
were nearly 100,000; viz., about 60,000 Austrians
and 40,000 Italians ; each side lost about 3,000 men,
and it seems that the declaim was only caused
late in the night, when Fled-marshal Radetaki ordere 1
six batteries to be brought to a distance of no more
than 600 feet from the front of the enemy, and to
be fired with cartridges.

firmed lameness. Kis father said it was all a sham, and
made him walk the deck tied in a particular manner and
shouldering • aniline spike. The poor child used to err
with (irony, and the tears would roll town witness's cheek
in seeing his suffering., but he dared not speak to the
captain, who was a very strict man. The captain nesd to
say the child was a lazy mounded, and compelled him to
walk she deck for 21 hours out of the 24, until his legs and
feet were eaten op from salt water boils. Witness had seen
mach severe treatment, both oa hoard men of war and mar-
' (thalamus, bat bad sever witnessed anything like the washy
to which this lad had been subjected.
For the defence Mr. Pelham urged that the boy was
' filth,, lasy, • liar, and a thief." He was taken to sea to 'tor-
rent him of these habits, and the punishment inflicted was
not peeler than a father might lawfully exercise on a child
who required severe correction.
J. Parry the second mate, after much hesitation, and a
storm leaning towards the defendant, reluctantly admitted
that he could not stand the punishment inflicted on the boy
by the master, and felt compelled to leave whilst the former
was flogging him. The child was beaten with • rope an
lath thick, which, though new when the cperations nom-
mimed, was "flayed " to hemp when produced in the
court.

These _ conclusive. Wherever peace

the new order of things, we trace a prodigious
increase of the export, and this increase is so gre at
that to the five countries we have enumerated, the
augmentation of the exports of lace, gauze, and of
cambric' and muslin', amounts to very nearly 200 per
cent. When we reverse the yof the demand,
and group together the exports to disturbed countries,
we immediately encounter a different set of facts.
There is no longer an increase; but there is a diminu-
tion of nearly 50 per cent. under both heads of the
table.

There is, however, another point of view in which
the argument must be conidered.
The aaegations of 111 n NEWDEOATE affirm not
merely, thc decline of onrownindustry, hut the extension
by means of that decline of th- industry of rival
nations. Now the easiest meth..d of verifying this
part of the case is to examine the exports of prepared
materials of manufacture from this enmity. Have
we sent away more cotton yarn, or have we sent away
less? That is the whole qu, stiun. We are not
aware that anybody has Bs tar disputed the abil ty of
this country to pro lucs yarn if it could r, produce
finished goods cheaper than any of its competitors.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.—YBSTIRDAT.
Before the Chid Commissioner.
Ig TNI MITT= or Sus THoltLe HOWLLND ROBeall,
BLIT.
This insolvent, who inherited large estates in Ireland, and
who attributed his insolvency to the depreciation of Irish
Property and the charges incurred, wee opposed by Mr.
Nichols and Mr. Dowse, and supported b 7 Mr. Cooke. The
ottjert of the opposition wee an inquiry Into the estates be-
longing to the insolvent at Breefleldstown, near Cork. It
appeared that there wave sassy judgments registered in the
averts of Ireland, and that the property had been lumens
bend by his grandfather and father.
Mr. Cooke remarked that the insolvent's =castors had
lived on the system of rack rent, and the insolvent as heir ta
the property. was now suffering from their imprudence.
The opposing conned applied to the commissioners for an
adj mrnment, in order that the insolvent might procure in-
formation from Ireland respecting the judgments registered
on the property.—The insolvent deemed that be could
not give a better account than he had already fur-
nished in his schedule.
Mr. C fake thought that an adjournment was unnecessary.
It would only have the effect of prol eighth the insolvent's
imprisonment without any materiel benefit, as the creditors
could themselves obtain the information in Ireland.
The learned Cniet Commissioner decline I to grant an ad-
journment. The creditors could procure what they now
asked the insolvent to do ; he bad gives all the particulars
he could furnish in his schedule. It appeared from the in-
solvent's further examination that he had a box in the
Qamen's Prison soatabdag some documents Mating to the
estates which were mortgaged to Mr Lukt Shea. The box
was sent far into court, and the papers relating to the pro-
' party and of assistance to the creditors were »attired to be
filed.—His Honour said be was glad to have the opportunity
to discharge the insolvent from prison. It was but due to
him to say, and he was pleased to de cs, that there were but
few debts owing to tradesmen In the schedule.—The basal
vent, who had been some time in the Queen's Prison, was
ordered to be discharged.
