ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LEEDS, Dtc. 23.
(Before Mr. Justice Sheet.
THE HAVISPIILD roust

His lordship having summed up this morning,
The jury found Teals, Sykes, Bona, and Beateliffe Guilty
of manslaughter, and recommended Benteliffe to mercy ;
and Booth and Savage Not Guilty.
His lordship, in passing soutanes, said :—John Teals,
William Sykes, Henry Beuteliffe, and John Bone
—the jury, in the exercise of their discretion, and, I
have no doubt, conscientious) y exercised according to their
view of your case, have not found you guilty of the crime
of wilful murder, but of the crime of manslaughter. They
have taken a verrnierciful view leased of your ease. I
did not feel myself at liberty, sitting here under the obli-
gation of the solemn oath which I have taken to administer
justice according to law, to suggest the alternative of a
verdict of manslaughter to the jury. Upon them, not
upon roe, is the responsibility of that verdict. You have
the benefit of it, but as respects two of you at least I
doubt if there is any of your fellow-subjects, competent to
form an opinion on the evidence, who would not upon that
evidence have been satisfied if a verdict of wilful murder
bad been returned against you. I am saved that most
painful of all duties—the duty of passing sentence of death
upon fellow-creatures; but it is my duty to pass a most
severe sentence.
Teak and Sykes were sentenced to penal servitude for
life; and Bone and Bentcliffe to penal servitude for 20
yeare.
The court was then adjourned to the Oth of January.

ARCIITS SKATING-DULL AND GYMNASIUM.--
The introduction of railways into the heart of the metro-
polis having created a considerable extent of subway in
some of the great centres of population, the ever e
spirit of sate:pries at once began to speculate in what way
the vacant sperms thus formed could be utilised. Shops,
stone, and " shades ' have been fashioned out of the
vaulted region thus artificially created, but peehaps no
application of the railway arches has been so happy se that
to which Mr. Goodman has converted some of those
under the Charing-cross terminus. At the river end of
Villiers-street may be seen a well-lighted room 200 feet
in length, 36 feet wide, and 25 feet high, in which the
healthful exercise of skating is practised by hundreds of
young men under the new system of skating Withollt ice.
The advantages of pieces of this kid, where reoreation and
healthy excitement are combined, ars so obvious that they
only require to be known in order to iodine young persons
to avail themeless of them. The necessity of providing
some means for the exercise of the body in our large and
populous towns is forcing itself on the coesideration of even
public bodies, and the application of railway arches to this
purpose deserves every encouragement and support. As y
Mr. Goodman has only erected& pleasant skating hall, but •
gymnasium is in course of construction, and will soon be
completed. Skating on a smooth floor is not so egreethle
an amusement, doubtless, as that of sliding on the gluey
surface of the ice in the keen crisp; air of winter, but it is
still a graceful and exhilarating exercise, sad will, no doubt,
when better known, be fully appreciated by thousands who
at present have no opportunity of spieling anything like
physical recreation, except by an outlay of time and means
which comparatively a few only can afford.

AUSTRIA AND THE POPE'S ENCYCLICAL.
VIENNA, JAN. 8.

The official Wiener Zeitung of to-day says
" The Encyclical, and the catalogue of errors ap-
pended thereto, will be communicated to the
bishops in Austria. In conformity with the Con-
cordat between Austria and the Pope, the Imperial
Government can exercise no influence with respect
to the form in which the Encyclical and its appen-
dix should be promulgated, inasmuch as it could
not do so without passing an opinion upon the act
of the Holy Father, a course which at present
would be uncalled for. The Imperial Government
recognises in the Encyclical merely a statement of
Pontifical views, which are not of a character to
alter the laws and regulations at present existing in
Austria."

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

(Before Mr. Justice Blackburn.)
In the ease of the trial of Hokherter, Behrens. Danis,
Silberman, arid Braun. charged with being in the possession
of forged Russian rouble notes,
The jury retired to consider their verdict at ballast
three, and were absent an hoar. On their return they said
that they found Holchester and Behrens Guilty ; Silber-
man and Davis Guilty also, but am minor agents ; and
Braun Not Guilty.
Mr. Sleigh informed the mutt that Behrens, who had
been a Russian sailor, had been convicted some years ago
of obtaining goods under fable pretenoes at Plymouth ; Bd.
barman had been charged with passing forged notes at
Hamburg ; Davis bad also been charged with dealing with
5-rouble forged notes. With regard to Holebester. there
were persons in custody in Paris who implicated him in
eery large transactions is these forged notes, of which it
lid been ascertained there were more than a million in cir-
culation in Russia. Of Bayer (who pleaded guilty) nothing
was koown. There were ether indictments against Braun
in respect to his feloniously making plates for forging notes,
and the prosecution applied for his trial to be postponed on
hose indictments.
The Judge consented, but said he ought to be allowed to
be hailed.
On being asked why judgment should not be pared, Hot.
cheater protested his innocence, and so far from dealing in
notes he had bad to sell his furniture for his defence. He
had lived 15 years in this country without reproach, and had
a wife and four children, besides an aged mother and 'Wars
wholly dependent upon him.
Bayer said—lt was my fault ; but not my fault they did
not hod what they were looking for, the manufactory of
these notes.
Davis said he had furnished the house in Russelletreet,
bad thus become acquainted with other. and was wholly
innocent.
Silberman said he went to the house to get a document
stowed for his relief as • Pols.
Behrens said that like some of the others he had been
antioad to the house by Lisbon for the police to take.
The Judge—Holehester, you have all been convicted on
the clearest evidence of being in possession illegally of these
cotes. Ido Dot suppose you are the person engaged in their
maeufecture, but you were evidently dealing with them
very largely, and I think it my duty to pass upon you a
severe meotnoc•-12 yews' penal servitude. Behrens, you
also seem to be one of the leaders and an active agent, and
I shad also pus a severe goatee°, upon you-7 years' penal
servitude. Davis and Silberman, the jury have designated
you as minor agents, and you do not seem to have been so
deeply engaged in this business. As you, Davis, have been
guilty of similar transactions before. the sentence upon you
is 5 years' penal servitude. On Ballerinas and Bayer the
sontseee is to each 15 calendar months' hard labour.
Holchester appeared greatly affected by his sentence, and
exclaimed violently, while the others exhibited the most
stolid indifference.

THE HUNGARIAN DIET.
PESTH, Der. 21.
In to-day's sitting of the Lower House of the

speech, in which he said that the western portion
of the Empire should be convinced that the rights
of Hungary are in unison with the interests of
the Empire, but that parliamentary centralisation
is opposed to those rights. " Our aim," concluded
Count Andrassy, "should not be the triumph of
Hungary, but the consolidation of the power of
Austria. I trust that Hungary will keep in view
the rights of his Majesty and the material into
rests of the Empire." (Applause.)
The sitting was then adjourned until the 10th

The reports current that disturbances have taken

from being opposed, is favourable to Spain, since
the Brazilian Minister at Madrid, by order of his

Minister for Foreign Affairs, and declared that
Brazil disapproved the conduct of her representative
in Chili."

THE EXTRADITION TREATY BETWEEN
FRANCE AND ENGLAND.

-- •
The Moniteur of yesterday says --" As is well

England are regulated by the convention of the ,
13th February, 1843, which stipulates the recipro-
cal surrender of criminals taking refuge in one
country from the other and accused of assassination,
murder, forgery, or fraudulent bankruptcy. #n I
experience of more than twenty years having
demonstrated the inefficiency of this treaty, 1
the Emperor's government has resolved to termi-
nate it. His Majesty's ambassador in London
accordingly made known on the 4th December to
the Queen's government that the Emperor's go-
vernment, in virtue of the faculty stipulated in
article 4of the convention of the 13th February,
1843, would consider the treaty as being no longer
in operation at the expiration of the six months
"ollowing this declaration."

VIE IMPRESS, TUESDAY E

public grant made for education,, eniN if the
right of the parent to determiew mligioes
creed of his child is to be maintaMed,'"the Com-
mittee of Council are bons& to insist upon a'
Conscience Clause. If, indeed, it were the
doctrine or the practice of the Church of England
that every child who attends • Church of England
school should be compelled to learn the Cate-
chism, the Creed, or even read the New
Testament, there might be some pre-
tence for remonstrance against the Com-
mittee of Council. It is true that Arch-
deacon Denison admits no child to his school who
has not been baptised. But this is only an instance
of the Archdeacon's extravagance. The notorious
practice is to admit all aorta of children to National
School—the manager being invested with the
right not to insist upon their accepting the religious
instruction. According to these principles •
National School is not the less a Church of Eng-
land School because all the children do not learn
the Catechism and the Articles. Now the
only effect of a Conscience Clause is to convert
a privilege granted by the manager of a
particular school into a right guaranteed
by a clause in • deed. Tke only effect of such a
change would be to prevent those who are disposed
to tyrannise over stray Dissenters in thinly peopled
districts from exciting animosity against a Church
which they serve with more zeal than discretion.
But at all events a Conscience Clause has the effect
neither of stopping any clergyman from instruct-
ing his 011111 people in the doctrines of the Church,
nor of cutting the ground from under the feet
of those " who advocate the true principles of

DEPARTURE ON' IPItEiTOII TROOPS.
The Mats of to-day says :—" The report men-
tioned a few days back that the French troops
would soon leave the pontifical territory, is now
completely confirmed. The French troops have
already left Frosinone and Velletri, and the detach-
ment which were engaged on the mountains in pur-
-1 suing brigands have been ordered to rejoin their
respective regiments. On the Roman government
will now be thrown the duty of putting down bri-
gandage on the frontiers. In order to accomplish
this some understanding mast be come to with the
Italian troops. But what understanding can be
arrived at with the agents of a goventmeut which
the Pope does not recognise. Here we have a first
diffi3ulty which is perhaps more serious than it at
first appears."

LICIRIC L IND THE "TIME&"

The moderate and dignified tone in which Mr. Adams, as
well es Earl Russell, has discussed the difficult questions
arising out of the Alabama claims greatly intensifies, the
Daily News says, the gravity of the dispute. in the de-
seatohes whielt have been exelianged there is no margin
left for abatement on the ammo( testier. The Daily Deice
has Got the slightest appesbensios that war will Nile
out of these claims, but it is not improbable that
the decision which our government has taken will bring
our relations with America to a dead lock. If we may
judge of what is likely in America by what has actually
happened under similar circumstances In Europe, we may
expect that the American goverment will take up •
passive attitude, and decline to entertain say of those
counter claims which we have upon the United States until
we are ready to refer these. The Canadians also will pro-
bably have to go without the advantages of the Reciprocity
Treaty after next March. The Times cannot help ministers
is these their real difficulties, but it may combarrase them,
sad that is exactly, says the Daily Noes, the tendency of
the article it published yesterday.
The Telegraph censures the Times for its mode of dealing
with the alleged extraordinary blunder of it. New York
correspondent respecting the supposed ultimatum of the
American government to France In the matter of the occu-
pation of Mexico. It would have been better, says the
Telegraph, if upon the receipt of the formal maitradiatioa
the Times bad frankly askeowledged its involnetary *nor.
in lien of this, however, it tried to pet itself right by a
leading article commenting on the probability of • coolness
between Trent* and America, end on the results which
might ensue if the Federal government thought fit to vin•
dicate the Monroe doctrine. What the public wants to
know just now is, not whether the Tiatea thinks such as
event probable, but whether, as it aeserted, an ultimatum
has really been sent from Washiegtou, demanding the
withdrawal of the French protectorate. The Times Is quite
acute enough to see that such is the plain issue ; end the
manner in which it carefully avoids grappling with the
question must be taken as a confession that the less said
about it the better.
