CJIRKENWELL.

CRAROZ or Sraxiorro. —John and George Cooke,
brothers, and George Sims, were charged by Mrs. Jane
Ford, a well dressed young woman, residing at 4, Ossolston-
street, Somers-town, with having been concerned in stealing
a pearl brooch, value Its., her property.
It appeared from the evidence that on the previous even-
leg, about eight o'clock, she went to a public-house near her
reiedence for the purpose of purchasing her supper beer,
when she found the prisoners and some other persons regaling
themselves and larking together before the bar. Bhe was
pushed about, when some one seized her by the throat,
whilst another hand grasped at the brooch which was pinned
on her breast, and tore it away from her. The prisoners
were the principal leaders in the affair, and they ran away.
Two gentlemen who were present interfered for her protec-
tion, and prevented further violence towards her. They
pursued the prisoners, and apprehended them, but the pro-
perty was not found on eithrr of them. They were taken to
the station-boos, and lucked up till the morning.
Two witnesses were called by the prosecutres to give evi.
dean., but on mounting the witness-box the gentlemen were
found to be quite drunk, clipped the Queen's Bcglielt, and
delivered themselves so thickly, that
Mr. Tyrwhitt suggested the necessity of the postponement
of the case until the witnesses became sober.

One of the *acmes said, with a hiccup, " I was never
more sober in all my life." (Laughter.) His fellow witness
exclaimed, "Me drunk ! not drunk. I'm able to give
evidence I'm per-fect-ly sober." (Laughter.)
Mr. Tyr.hitt, however, was of a dill', rent opinion, in
which everybody in court concurred. He ordered the pri-
soners to find bail for their future appearance to answer to
the charge.

Tim resolution of Masks to the seeretary was unanimously

The SECRETARY observed that considerable difference
of opinion existed as to the cause of the failure of mechanics'
institutes in the present da Perhaps some of the gentlemen
profilist would Mate their views on the subject.
Mr. SAMUEL LUCAS considered the chief cause of the
failure to be a want of education swags, the people. (Hear,
hear.) He was satisfied that Ifs large moss of the working
population were educated, and if they received a better kind
of educed= than they, at present, got in the sectarian
schools and the comma day schools, mechanics' institutes
would be better supported. The decline of the drama was a
subject to which attentioa had been frequently celled of late
years. He believed there was no single cause to which it
was so much owing se the imam of clap publics-
time; for, whereas • man most formerly have paid one
shilling, or a larger Inn, W obtain an evening's amusement
from the representation of a play, he could now procure •
better evening's amusement foe himself and family at a much
cheaper rate.
Mr. Alderman HARVEY said the one great point to be
aimed at in the education of the working classes was to
effect a moral reformation amongst the people ; and one of
the first steps should be to draw them out of the public-
houses, and put some more rational mode of enjoyment
within their reach. The reformation, he considered, must
begin with the young. A library had been established in
his mill, but he found that only from 10 to 16 per cent. of the
people in the establishment availed themselves of it, and
they were principally young people. They had also classes
connected with the mil,.

Mr. SATTERTHWAITE said he had been informed
that the chief cause of the rim of the Liverpool Mechanics'
institution had been the establishment of juvenile day
schools. _

Some further conversation followed, alter which,
On the motion of Mr. A. Unmeant, seconded by Mr. Ald.
KARON; a TOW of thanks was given to the chairman, and
the proceedings terminated.

main halyard blocks. That having been replaced, one of her
peak halyard blocks got unhooked, when dowa came her
mainsail again. After a delay of 2'2 minutes all was got to
right, the Wizard having during that time got up and taken

SAFFRON WALDEN AGRICULTURAL
SOCIETY.

The annual meeting of this society wait he'd at
Walden oa Saturday, when there was a large exhibition of
stock, and a number of priers and rewards were distributed
to the poor of the counties of Essex, Harts, and Cambridge.
A pare. of upwards of 120 afterwards sat down to dinner in
the agnealtuni•hall, Lard Braybrooke presiding, supported
by Earl Nelson, Lord C. Hervey, Dr. Buckland, Dean of
Westminster, and many of the brad nutty and clergy.
Tee noble PIEBIDINT, in giving " timpanist° the Society,"
alluded to the present depression of agriculture, and sug-
gested remedies. Formerly they had an alternation of good
and bad seuons ; and he had always hoped for " a goad time
ernaing ;" but it was impossible not to ase that the clouds
were still lowering. The next questitta was, what was to be
done under those circumstances ? And that was a question
much more easy to ask than to answer. He would not take
them through a history of all the recipes which had been
ofered,—cheap loans, a sinking fund, &c., but with all res-
pa ct for the member for Buckinghamshire, and giving him
credit for his talent, he (Lord Braybecoke) man say he wee
surprised at his first scheme, in referees, to the land-tax
(hear, hear); and then the hon. gentles's* came to a con-
servative festival in Bose:, and proposed a slaking fund,
which was no doubt a very good thing where there was a
margin to lay by ; but if John Bull °mild aot live within his
income he did not see how he could be expected to save much
for a sinking fund. (Hear, hear.) He (Lord Braybrooks)
still hoped for the dawn of brighter days, sad palters,:
might be said that the wont waspseud, se everybody
glad that the transition state would be the worst.
The Vica-Pansinanx (Mr. Burch Wolfe) said they were
hoaeured by the presence of a nished nobleman—a
descendant of the great and immortal Lord N•hus, whole
health he begged to give in eon's:ion with The Visitors."
(Loud churl.)
Earl NIILION returned thanks, and obeernal, that though
usable to afford them any practical WHO= ikon ores
one feeling which be did entertain, aaill is he would
yield to no one—a foaling of sympathy, and he might my

FIRE AT TILE CALEDONIAN RAILWAY STATION.—
Early this morning a tire broke out at the Caledonian Rail-
way station, Lothian-road, and raged with considerable vio-
lence till between 9 and 10 in the forenoon, when it was ex-
tinguished. Since the opening of the line • temporary
wooden s rection has been used as a booking office, the per
-
nascent offices being in procees of building. Two of the new
sheds connected with the permanent:station have been de-
stroyed, also two brick buildings, and several coaches, to-
gether with a quantity of goods. The origin of the fire has
not yet been ascertained. The accident will not cause any
stoppage of traffic. The damage done must be very great,
owing to the large quantity of goods destroyed, consisting,
among other things, of a great number of boxes of tea, several
bales of Mancheeter manufactured goods, and packages of
provisions: nine third clan passenger carriages have 10111 been
burned, end sit trucks. The officials of the company esti-
mate the lues at between 6,0001. and 7,0001, but it is said
that this will not nearly cover it.
PAINFUL ACCIDENT AT HAWICK. —ln Mensre.
Watson's factory, on Friday last, • girl, 13 year. of age,
named Patterson, employed as a piecer, had one of her legs
broken in two places, her arm torn off between the elbow
and the shoultkr, and her body otherwise injured, by • lying
shaft which revolves near the ceiling. The girl was in the
practice of standing upon a box in order ti reach the shaft,
woich was upwards of seven feet from the floor, and throw-
ing her apron against it. This she often did, notwithstand-
inc the remonstrances end warnings of the persons in charge
of the flat; and it appears she hac been again doing so, when
her apron having got fastened, she was drawn up and
wheeled round betwixt the shaft and the ceiling. There
were faint hopes of the girl surviving.

ITALY.

NAPLES.—We hive received despatches from our
correspondent at Naples, of the 27th ult., who men-
tions that extensive military preparations are still is
progress. A strong military force is announced to be in
preparation for Sicily. Other divisions are intended for
the Calabria, Apulia, the Basilica, and other pro-
vince.. Much duatisfaction is expressed at the con-
duct of the government in respect to certain insults
reported to have been committed against English sub.
jecto, for which prompt redress has not been rendered.
ROMAN STATES.—The Go:rtte of Genoa, of
the 90th ult., sass:—" Scarcely wu the protest of Pius
IX. placarded at Rome, than the people immediately
tore it down. The chambers are almost in a state of
dissolution, and it is probable that they will dissolve
themselves. The junta and ministers have assembled
to take such measures as are required by circum-
stances."

The Atha, of the 28th ult., contains a report of the
sitting of the Chamber of Deputies of the 26th ult. The
ministry having promised a deputation of the clubs
that the constituente of the state should be proclaimed
on that day, at the opening of the sitting the minister
read • letter from the Junta, in which it declared
that if the ministry and the chambers should not
immediately proclaim the constituents, the Junta
would take the initiative with regard to it. The
minister then read his report, and a project of
electoral law. He then delivered a speech, in
which he pointed out the necessity of immediately
calling the oonstituante, in order to prevent popular
movements.

The deputies thus found themselves obliged to come
to some decision. The majority would not hear of a
constituente ; but as, on the other hand, there
Appeared to b 2 imminent danger in refusing it, a
medium course ought to be adopted. Several depu-
ties asserted that the chamber was incompetent, and
on that and other pretexts the majority declare d
against the cunsti,uante. The agitation in the public
tribunes now became very great, when one of the
deputies contrived to quit the chamber, leaving it
in insufficient number to deliberate. The chamber
then declared itself unable to continue its discussions,
notwithstanding the protest of the deputy Andinot,
who required it to proceed forthwith, to save the '
country from anarchy. The people in the tribune
then became exasperated, and hissed and booted
the deputies, who immediately separated. Thus
ended the lining. The ministry has declared that to-
morrow it would act on its own responsibility.

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, JAN. 4.
The northern counties continue to be excited by
' outrages of an agrarian character. The journals
of yesterday morning contained accounts of a very
annsual character from the north—a considerable
destruction of property in the county of Down by in-
cendiaries. An attempt, almost simultaneous, was
made to destroy the rick-yards of six large farmers in
different parts of Down, on Saturday night last. The
property was net all destroyed, but the damage done
orm very considerable. The Gazelle of last night
contains a peoclaination placing a portion .4 Donegal
under the Crime and Outrage Act ; and, as there are
still further accounts from Down of criminal attempts
against property, it is most probable the same vet= e
will be put in requisition to enable the executive to
cope with and subdue the spirit abroad.
A letter in the .14.)-onnan's Jimsnal, this morning,
states that about 30 years since Mr. Perrin (now Jus-
tice) caused considerable alarm to the crown lawyers
of that day, by objecting to a certain grand juror of
the county Down, at the assizes, that he was not a
freeholder. The crown business was all postponed in
consequence. Now he has decided no such qualifica-
tion is necessary in a grand juror. The two facts are
stated as incongruous, but they are not so, because he
decided the latter expressly on the ground that the
recent statutes had done away with au qualifications.

THE QUARTER'S REVENUE.

The revenue tables for the last quarter will be
made up this eveWng. There will be an increase
on the Customs for this quarter, as compared
with the corresponding quarter last year, of half a
million. Oo the other hand, there will be a falling off
of 100,000!. on stamps, and a small decrease in the
Post-office. There will be no material alteration in
the receipts for Excise and Taxes, bat a slight in-
cretue, instead of, as reported, a decrease. There is
also a falling off in the income-tax.

MEETING OF SPANISH AMERICAN BOND.

HOLDERS.
A meeting of the holders of Peruvian bonds, called
together by the aomatittee, was held yesterday at the Landes
Tavern, to mein the proposals of his essaiacy the Peru-
vian Minister.

Mrll.—liohisiaost, M.P., who presided, before calling for
the sense of the meeting cm the proposals, entered into a
brief history of the vertu.s negotiations which had been tor
some years past carried on, without effect, b twee° the wow
mime sad the representatives of the Peruvian goveroment
with a view to the adjustment of the dtbt. At length the
Peruvian frovemaseat sent a miaister, Senor Oahu, bare to
make deftest* proposals to the bondholders. That gentleman
arrived in this coaatry on the 12* of November, bat it we
not till the Mad of December that the committee remind
Senor Chne• proposals, with the general tenor of which
they were all oxitudated, the heads having been published.
The moment thew proposals were received he directed that
the heads of them should be published in the rapers and
on the Stock Exchange, in order that no undue advantage
of the *formation should be taken by speculators or others.
He had seta so many 'Women* in the papers in refer-
, ease to resent traame.loas is thie stock, that he felt
belied to notice them—of pumas being induced to sell
through and of others buying in eonsequence of
private Information they bad obtained--ratements which, in
some *stashes, went so for as to Wheats that members of
the committee had availed themselves of the knowledge
which officially they had *squired to spesslate is those
hoods, or that had given information to other parties to
enable them to do so—that be whiled to state em
that the members tithe committee had had no to do
with such steadatiess. (Hear' hoar.) He had beard of

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.

BITTING OP TIII3IIIDAT.
The project of decree m to work in primps was on
the order of the day for discussion.
Y. lioncar. BA/THE, whilst approving the putting an
and to WHINE, which daily begets great depravity in tla e
prisons, required that the augmentation of the number of
operatives in the prisons to the detriment of the free wo•k-
men should be cautiously avoided, and required that the
prisoners should, toss great an extent as partible, be em-
ployed in agricultural labour.
Y. Roux CAETIONNZL made some observations of like
tendency, and proposed certain principles to regulate prison
labour, so as not to compete with free labour.
M. DI Fazzong, 'dodgier of Public Instruction, laid on
the tahkr a decree of the President of the Republic with-
drawing the project of decree on instruct:los. (" Tres
Wan !" Agitation I gauche.) • min gave sane expla-
nations as to toe motives of this withdrawal, the project con-
taining principl. a that the government could not emotion. He
expressed a t ors, moreover, that the labours of the committee
charged with the examination of the project of law of M.
Carrot would not be lost.
Y. BAITTIIILEMT Sr. BILALSZ gave some explanations
on the labours ut the committee, and represented the with-
drawal of the bill as an attack on the prerogative of the As.
semby, and announced that the bill would be presented
again, in virtue of the right of parliamentary initiative.
M. DI FALLOUX denied having any intention of raising a
coufliet.

-31.itarxxxtx required that the qwestion should be sent
before the bureau; in order that the law of primary instruc-
tion should be included in the organic laws.
M. 0. BARROT ',teemed the Assembly not to aggravate
the difficulties of the situation, which already were sufficiently
serious. The ministry, he said, had only exercised its right.
The Assembly had no other coon, left than to present a
new project according to the established forme.
M. DUPON (de Boast) maintained that the decree which
enumerated the organic laws to be voted by the Aesemb4 '
involved the consequence that the Assembly must necessarily
peas the law on primary instruction, which was an essential
part of the organic laws.
M. DI FALLOUX replied.
M. DUPON proposed an " Ordre du jour motivk." The
simple " ordre du Jour" was proposed, and the house pro-
ceeded to a division, with the following result :
Number of voters 744
Majority .. 373
The order of the day was consequently adopted.
