THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 9, 1854.

DCIILIN, JAN. 7.
The Noosing Mod of last night announces that
Mr. John Sadleir, M.P., has sent in his resignation
to Lord Aberdeen, as Lord of the Treasury.
We have had a total chime in the weather, al-
though I am sorry to say it is only a change from
one kind of bad weather to another. Yesterday it
rained insolently, and the greater part of the snow
and ice was thus diluted and washed. away ; bat last
night the frost returned, and by congealing the flood
of rain and melting snow which inundated the
streets, formed a sheet of ice over which loco-
motion of any kind was this morning extremely
perilous and difficult. This morning, however, the
Rood-gates above have again been opened to the rain,
and torrents aro now falling, with every appearance
of having thoroughly vanquished both trait and
snow, of which before night every trace will be
washed away.
A numerous and very respectable meeting has
been held in the Court-house at Newry, pursuant to a
requisition, " for the purpose of taking into considera-
tion the subject of the unprovoked aggression of
Russia spinet Turkey." The meeting, which was
a highly influential one, was unanimous in the ex-
pression of a strong opinion on the question under
consideration ; and resolutions in accordance with
these sentiments were adopted.
The funeral of Lord Plunkett takes place this
morning. The remains of the illustrious deceased
will be deposited at Mount Jerome Cemetery.
The Northern Whig announces the completion of
the Zketric Telegraph between Ireland and England,

The Yorksbireman, on her passage to Belfast on
Wednesday night last, became a total wreck within
about one mile of Donaghadee, during a heavy snow
squall. She left Morecambe on Wednesday, for
Belfast. at half-past two o'clock, p.m., with a general
cargo, and fortunately but one passenger on board.
It is feared that little or nothing of her cargo can be
saved. The Yorkshires= is a new vessel, this being
her third trip from our pet. Fortunately, no lives
have been lost.

The report wet ado}
The CZAtillaW, in :making his statement explanatory of
the arrive of the company, said : During the last half year
an amowit of 4,0001. had been eapeaded out of the profits
es permanent improvements, which would of course yield
a return in due time, which caused their nett profits to
amoust to over 12,01101. ; out of which sum, as appeared by,
the report, the directors proposed to make a dividend of 15
per cent , having first paid the income tax, which imposi-
tion, although a novelty in this country, certainly presented
itself at a period when the funds of the society were
well able to meet it. (Rear, hear.) The profits which
had been realised proved even more satisfactory from the
fact of their being derived in a considerable degree from
that sorra to which the company should always look as
the most permanent and steadily progressive of all the
different undertakings in which they were engaged—be
referred to the collieries. A large portion of that melt

SOUTHWARK SESSIONS—AMWAY,
The usual Quarter Sessions of the Peace fer the borough
of Southwark were held on Saturday. At eleven o'clock
the Lord Mayo r, attended by the macebearer and deputy
swordbearer (Messrs. Beddome and Sewell), entered the
court, in which were some fifty or silty gentlemen sum-
moned u jurors, the Clerk of Arraigns, ushers, &c. After
the lap,* of a few minutes the Lord Mayor addressed the
grand jury, and said it was at all times most difficult to
deal with ancient usages and customs, but there could be
no doubt that the time had fully arrived when some change
was seeded to prevent the necessity of so many gentlemen
being drawn from their occupations to give their attend-
ance in a court of justice under heavy penalties, when no
actual business had to be transacted. The corporation of
London had had jurisdiction in the bonnet of Southwark
ever since the reign of Edward IV., and bad, peobably,
for several eenturies,rendered valuable te the sem-
=unity ; hut a change in the police sibmbaberadem ef lets
years had led to the:extinction of businesses thsseessime. It
therefore appeared to him to be altogether sasasessigy, and
a great waste of valuable time, tbat so sisal gamffinuns from
the neighbourhood should be compelled W domes attend•
ance at a wart simply to be told that thew wan me business

fcritemes of further duty. He (ths Lard Mayor) lad

After other evidence in confirmation had been given, the

alarm in • peaceable circle, especially on such a day. It
was impossible to conjecture the motives of such a lawless
gang, or what might have been the result, had they not
met with brave and courageous men. The defendants de-

WORSHIP- STRET.
The lin. Was. Stone, the Rector of Christchurch, Spi-

mons whisk bed Issaretained against his wife, for having
nalawfully sand to psyto Robert Piper, a cab driver,
the sum .1 61., bike the remainder of the fare to which he
was entitled for lislime of his carriage on the 28th all.
The sompisimmt stated that on the afternoon in lOW I
lion ks was wed to convey Mrs. Stone and two other
has dissi Portland Bazaar, in Regent-street, to
almili Spitalfields, a distance of considerably more
IkonblassilaiZes. On reaching his destination he demanded
balfssrowa for hie fare, being 2e. for the journey and an
additional 6d. for the extra passenger; but as Mrs. Stoma
positively refused to pay him more than 2a.,
_which she do-
skied to be hie proper fare, he was compelled to take out •
semipro for the recovery of the overplus.
defondast said he did not dispute the fare, but b.
ps sabassuee conduct in bringing the charge
to neap Trim bis wife had desired him to take from
her Mai lamina was his legal fan. She felt certain at
the Wise that be was only entitled to 2e., she therefore bold
sat her hand with money for him to take.
The semplainant said that money had certainly. been
sold out t. hill by the lady, but be was afraid of taking It
lest he should subject himself to a charge of felony.
Mr. Hamill said the reason assigns' by the complainant
for nut taking the money was perfectly absurd, as the lady I
was herself a consenting party ; but as it was just possible
be might have entertained such a scruple, and the fare was
not disputed, be should order the defendant to pay the
I extra 6d., together with costs.
SOUTHWARK.
Thomas John Stoineoek, a well-dressed young man, about
18 years of age, was brought before Mr. Alleckett, charged
with stealing a five road Bank of England note, and one
sovereign, the property of Dr. Marsh, a surgeon, residing
in the New Kent-road.
It appeared Dr. Marsh had sent a lad, with • five-pound
note, to pay an account to a chemist in Bermondsey. street.
The lad returned a few hours afterwards, and said, he had
been robbed of the money by the prisoner. The prosecutor
said he knew Swinerk, who had been an assistant to his
master. When he was sent with the money to pay a
person in Bermondsey, the prisoner met him near Newing-
ton-causeway, and asked him when he was going to. He
told him that ha was going to pay a bill of six pounds, and
that he had in the envelope a five-pound note and .a sove-
reign. The prisoner then said he would accompany
him, and on the way he told him he had better take
the number of the note, in case there should be any
bother about it. When near the corner of Western-street,
the prisoner asked him for the note to take the number.
He gave it to him, when he asked him to go into a shop
near the spot and ask the shopkeeper to lend him a pen and
ink, to take down the number. Witness did as he was told,
and when he returned into the street be found that the
prisoner bed decamped with the note. He instantly ran
back, and informed his master what had occurred.
Police-constable 93 L said, from information he received
he went on Thursday afternoon to the Loadon Coffee-
house, in the London-road, and there he saw the prisoner
enjoying himself with coffee, ham, and eggs. He went up
to him, and told him that he wanted him for stealing a 51.
note from Dr. Marsh, but he made no reply. On searching
him he found two sovereigns and a half, and two shillings
and a sixpence. There were several letters found on him,
one of which was addressed to Dr. Manh, acknowledging
his guilt as to the 61. note, end praying for forgiveness.
Mr. A'Beckett remanded him until Thursday.

hear complaints of any kind, but on the contrary all sorts
of evidence is afforded that trade here is, as it has been fur
a long time, ins thoroughly healthy condition. The Board
of Trade returns for the month ending on the sth of De-
cember, present a very large increase in the exported values
under the four heads given below: •
Moath ending Dec. 6,
1852. 1853. Increase.
Hardware and cutlery £228,581 .. 057,138 L 128.667
Machinery
Don 672,489 .. 798,311 .. 286,622
Tin-plates
The other figures in this return are equally satisfactory.
Some of the works in the district have been partially stopped
for want of coal, a difficulty which will in all probability
be increased, some of the pits being more inundated with
water than ever. Apart term this the reports in refereece
to the state of trade in all the adjacent towns are as satis-
factory as they have been for a long time put, all the men
who will work being fully employed.

COTTON.—LiviarooL, JAN. 7. Tht market closed
with firmness, at the full prices reported yesterday. The
sales have amounted to 6,000 bales, chiefly taken by the
trade, anyl comprising, in addition to Americans, of which
the greater portion of the purchases consisted, 300
Egyptians were sold, at 6d. to 91d. per lb. The import since
Thursday, 6,000 bales.
' MaxcansTax, JAN. 7.—There bas been a dull market,
but with the engagements placed in the hands of producers
' during the brief period of activity preceding the Christmas
holidays, sellers have been able to maintain prices rather
steadily, and the pressure to sell is not great. Business hu
been much deranged by the obstructions resulting from the
snow storms. Not only have buyers and sellers alike been
kept away from the market, but the difficulties thrown in
the way of the transit of cotton and coal must have entirely
put a stop to the industry of a large portion of the trade of
this district in a few days. The timely thaw which set in
' this morning has afforded hopes of relief, and not before
the situation bad become an embarrassing one. Coil rose
nearly 30 per cent. on Friday, and a few days' continuance
of frost, to as to leave the roads covered with snow drifts
would not have alone stopped the factories for want of fuel,
but the traffic on the railways also. We shall probably
have a more general resumption of business on Tuesday, un-
less the foreign news again assuming so serious an aspect,
should interpose another and sufficient discoursgement.
