et.gag.—William (Morse Barton, a clerk is the cam of
the Intonational Electric Telegraph °company, Telegraph-
street, Orty, was brought before 81r Thomas Remy, at the
Bow-street Polies Mart, yesterday, charged with *timing
money try kin pretense from the Has. Henry Bonnets
Wiiliam Brand, Secretary in the Tummy. The primmer
was the clerk appointed according to an sminumest be.
tween the goverment and the International Telegraph-
office, to receive at the ForeigamMese, Whitehall.
Bedew, neea to be foewardedlby the company's lines.
Re, it appeared, bad bee. in the habit of overcharging the
ender of the message. Thus having received a messige,
the charge for which 'rowdies to the company's Ural
would be 3a., be charged Mr. Bend 2lle. tide Even this
might have escaped intros, but that Mr. Wilms, the amid,.
ant secretary to the company, bad occasion to mad a mes-
sage to Mr. B and for a small sum for porterage, is pay-
tog which Mr. Brand made some remarks about the ex-
ocasive amount et a dual* whirl, b. had 'amid that day
for a telegraph memage—vii., 23e. 6d. As there was no
such charge in the " abstract.' which the prisoner had re-
turned that day, bat only a charge of 3a. for that particular
measegs, an inquiry wag initatuted, and it was found
that the mimics was in the habit of appropriating money
in this manner. In some instances, it was alleged, he had
hut back themeseages altogether, yet bad charged for them.
Sir Thomas Henry said that would be embezzlement. A
clear distinction must be made between oases in which the
prisoner bad demanded and received a sum in excess of the
tariff charges. which would be obtaining money ander false
pretences, and mace in which he bad received the money
and sot forwarded the message, which would be embezzle-
ment. The primes was remanded.

THE COHNISN MAXIM' &RILL—The movement
among the miners of Feet Cornwall, to which we yesterday
referred, has assumed a most formidable aspect. We are
nee yet in a poeitioe to decide fully on the merits of the
controversy, but several gentlemen who have been known
fee years as the staunch friends of the worlds% miner are
greatly distressed at the present movement, behevieg that
it can lead to no good melte, and is likely to cause wide-
spread and long-continned misery. Niue miters, said to be
conearned in the recant outrage upon a " Doesociety "
miner at Gunnislake, are to be brought before the Calling-
ton bench of magistrates to-day. At present the:. are
about 600 men and youths out on stub, at East Camden
and Mark. Valley Mines. The whole of the mines is the
Liskeard district were represented at a meeting held yes-
terday, at which it was unanimously resolved that so miners
who have joined the society shall be employed. A similar
resolution was oome to on the previous day in reference to
the Tavisteek district, and that the Davooshire and Rest
Cornwall mines are wholly closed against the moiety met.
A requisition has been sent to the ehief meltable fee a form
of police to be seat to the 0111140• Miner, as the sidled.
of the men and the threatening letter which have been
received, glee came for violence to be dreaded. We .:sat
that these fears will prove ill-fommhed.—Weseern Morning
