MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

(Before Mr. Bodkin, Ambient-Jade, and • fall bench of

WgiTtia-ta-LT

.
The court Net on Saturday at the Guildhall, Westminster.
for the purpose of hearing appeals, of which there were 43
on the list. There were several against the settlement of
wipers, sad 24 appeals teeing rating of property.
The principal appeals, however, In the list were
two, one against • oonviatioa by Mr. D'Eynceurt
at Clarke° well Police-ozurt of a man named Johnson for
cruelty to • now • sod the other an appeal by Mr. Frederick
Strange, of the Royal Alhambra Palace, Leioester-square
for unlawfully keeping a house end place of public retort
for the performance of stage plays without a license. The
latter case drew toretber a large number of parsons end
, the court was much crowded by members of the theatrical
profession. It was however postponed. In the former ease
the conviction against Jobusoo, who is SD extensive farmer
and cattle dealer in Leicestershire, was for sending a cow to
market directly after calving. Evidence was given to show
that this was a cruel act, causing the animal much pain.
Mr. Sleigh, for the appellant, contended, however, that he
had done nothing that was inconsistent with humanity, and
brought forward numerous witnesses Wilms that what had
been complained of WA the common practice, and so far
from cruelty, that at the time of calving the animal was
Nerved rather than injured by being moved about.
The Assistant-Judge sad the magistrates on the bench
then retired to consult together. On their return,
The Assistant-Judge said the time of the court had been
well spent in this investigation, and in the judgment he was
about to pronounce the bench did not mean to attribute to
Mr. Johnson personally any cruelty in the ordinary sense of
the term, but that be was following a system which
was very reprehensible, and the bench considered
that they were bound to assist the Royal Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in putting • stop to it.
He might say that every magistrate on the bench concurred
in the conviction they confirmed.

ANOTHER FIRE IN THE CITY.

Yesterday afternoon, shortly before 5 o'clock, a
very destructive fire took place in High-street, Shorediteb,
nearly opposite the terminus of the Greet FAH.= Railway.
The property that suffered formed three extensive ware-
houses belooging to Mean. Collett and Dodds, wholesale
and retail oil and colour marches* situate oe the west side
of the above thoroughfare. They had • considerable front-
age in High-street, within • door or so of Plough-yard, sod
extended in the rear some 180 feet or 200 feet, on to the
Liverpool-street branch of the North London Railway, now
in warm of formation. The fire uppers to have originated
in the warehouse fronting Plough-yard, which flanked the
south side of Messrs. Collett ad Dodd a stores. The
Mee circumstances attending the outbreak could not, amidst
the cooly:sloe which prevailed, be accurately gleaned ;
but the first thing that attracted the ateutios
of the persons in Plough-yard were screams of

was stated, although how far correct could not be ascer-
tained, that in drawing off or bottling acme petroleum or
other inflammable oil, the vapour ignited and set the spirit
on fire. The injured man was sent in • cab to the London
Hospital. So rapidly did the flames progress that before the

of the fire, the flames shot up from the mate through

NEW YORK, JOLT 29, Noox.
Latest advioes from the South disclose a rather
unsatisfactory oandition of affairs in that section.
Previous accounts of the destitution sad ruin of
the regions wherein the principal mosses of the war
were enacted are fully oorroborated, and the inha-
bitants are said to be less favourably disposed
towards the national authorities than has been
represented.
A report has reached Washington, from the
mouth of the Rio Grande, which, if true, is of the
moat serious importance. The Federal forces had
their picket line extending a long distance up the
river on the Texas side, and were confronted on
the Mexican bank by the pickets of the imperial
forces. A very unfriendly feeling existed and it
was feared that open hostilities might ensue. It
was reported that the Federal commander, General
Brown, had recently had an interview with Juarez,
to whom he had promised military assistance, and
that the Fourth Indiana regiment had been
ordered to cross the river, but General Steele,
the commander of the department, had sent a
despatch boat up the river to counteract the order,
if possible.
Several serious riots have occurred within the
past few days, and a spirit of lawlessness seems to
be alarmingly prevalent. A party of some 300
ruffians from Albany last Thursday landed from an
excursion boat at the City of Hudson, and after
killing two and severely beating a large number of
citizens, demolished several stores, and overpower-
ing the local authorities, finally escaped. Several
of them have since been arrested. In Concord,
New Hampshire, on the same day, a party of about
200 returned soldiers demolished a store whose
proprietor had some altercation with one of their
number. They ware finally dispersed by some
citizen soldiery.

of the arrangements which are
an improvement in this respect, coupled with a
prudent revision of the present exorbitant tolls,

Won* be saved if his barges were filled at the

everything which lies at the water-side. There are
other interests, too, besides those of traffic, in-
volved in the question. If thenavigationof theriver
trere suspended, and the locks no longer kept in
repair, the violence of the current after rain
would be much greater, and the floods more fre-
quent and more disastrous. Bet a still more
important consequence would be the effect which
the same change might have on the water supply
of London. The more water is exposed to the
action of the atmosphere the better for its purity,
and the keeping up of the navigation works tends
very greatly to do this. So, too, the navigation
itself keeps down the growth of the weeds, which,
especially in autumn, affect very prejudicially the
fie, of the water. And one witness, well acquainted
With the subject, predicts that, instead of its being

of water from land drainage, it will be absolutely

'lt is well to bear in mind that in this respect, at
as: rate, the interests of the people who navigate
the river are strictly identical with those of the
pails who drink from it. The owners of barges
went just what every Londoner who pays
a water-rate wants—that the supply of water
should be abundant and equable ; and when an
improvement in the navigation would contribute
largely to this object, besides securing others,
it would be eminently unwise to allow it to remain
unmade for want of a little legislation and a trifling
-nenditure.
