CLAYTON HALL.

THE BROUSIL FAMILY—This heretofore favourite house
of amusement, has, since the vaeation, undergone con-
siderable and most desirable alterations. It is now, and
we say it with pleasure, one of the handsomest houses of
the sort in Liverpool. The season commenced last evening,
under the able directory of Messrs. Thomas, who, during
the last season, produced such a variety of entertainments
as gave general satisfaction. If we were to augur from
the opening night, we might say that this house will prove
inferior to lane during the coming season. The Brousii
Family, has already been spoken of with eclat in the
Continental journals, and without at all submitting our
judgment to be governed by any exterior opinion, we can
say that this family realised all our expectations, and we were
glad of it, for it too frequently happens that we suffer our-
selves to be guided by what is termed " judges. We
pretend not to more judgment than other mortals, but we
must say the six members of the family are well worth
hearing, and cannot fail to be appreciated. In the vocal
department, Miss Barwick is sweet and pleasing, although
she lacks enunciation. Let her overcome this defect, and
she will become a pleasing and favourite singer. Oa a first

night, it would be, however, not fair to deal too critically ;
may say, on the whole, that the "opening night"

but we

was successful, and that the Brousil family mast become
deserved favourites with the Liverpool pubic.

DOG FIGHTING v. MAN HUNTING

k BATTLE PREVENTED.—For some days past the police
-- been in posses,ion of a great scent, namely=that a great
fight, and, very likely, as a sequel, a great man fight,
' take place some where about town. Of course the
on the alert," and, of course, the "canine
n the alert also. It has been said, with what
not state, that in order to be a good detective,
the man must be acquainted with all sorts of thieves and
modes of thievery, and this gives the man a sueeriority
over his victinas. In the present case the " dog fanciers,"
by their superior knowledge, out-flanked the man hunters.
At six o'clock yesterday morning, the police force mustered
strong in the locality cf Copperas-hill. Why they had
got up so early was no secret, even to themselves. Other
people could tell a trifle, as well as the officers, why they
rose with the cock or the lark. The fact was, a " great
dog fight" was to come off between two pugs—one the
representative of glorious " Ould Ireland" from Dublin,
and the other the Champion of Lancashire, called
" Pincher," or " Snap," or " Tiger," or anything
else you like. " Mickey Free" was the name of the
Dublin hanimal; but, in this instance, the police became
his friend, EO that he may be classed amongst quadrupeds
lucky dogs," for the constables would rot allow
any " freedom" "at all, at all," to be taken with him by
" Lancashire Pincher." It may be all very well to prevent
dogs biting men in the dog days, but the lewitimacy of pre-
venting dogs from biting each other is questionable in the
extreme, for it is written—

8 were

Let dogs delight to balk and bite.'

The police of Liverpool recognise no

hence the great " free and easy " that was to have happened
yesterday morning, did not come off—or rather did not

come on—in the neighbourhood of Copperas Hill aforesaid.
The match was made some time ago, and the Dublin dog
was backed for some hundreds of pounds to eat the Liver-
pool dog in three snaps ; whilst the Lancashireoniaps
" laid on the heavy," largely in support of their favourite
" Pincher," or " Towser." We were told that upwards of
fifty backers of " Mickey Free" came from Dublin on
Saturday night, to witness this fine display of canine
science—that is, the display that did not come off—plague
on intermedling polcemen—yesterday morning at six
o'clock. Now, the principle, of which we spoke, of setting a
" thief to catch a thief," was never more manifest than it
was on yesterday morning in the locality of Copperas-hill.
The police were up early, but the " fancy" were " wide
awake" long before the officers. The police knew they were
going ; the " fancy" knew the same thing just as well as
the police did. The police concluded they would "make a
haul ;" the " fancy" resolved that nothing of the sort
should happen, and they were right. The police chuckled
at the very idea of the " fun" that would be before Mr.
Mansfield, and the " fancy" laughed in their silence at such
an Utopian conception, resolving to have " fuu" somewhere
else. At six o'clock it was a remarkably fine morning ;
both parties, that is the police and the " fancy," were
watching each other through scouts and advanced guards—
something after the fashion of the Russians and the Allies
on the morning of Inkerman—each trying to ouffl ink his
opponent. The " fancy" made a feint, in order to
draw on the enemy ; the enemy was cautious, but
advanced. The Redan, in the locality of Copperas-hill,
was, however, to be taken, and an assault became
necessary. This was done in the very best style,
but the enemy was too cute by three score for the besiegers.
On entering the citidal, it was found to be like a banquet-
hall—deserted. During the time the police were examining
the " eurio.ities" of the " evacuated fort," the " fancy"—
including the dogs and all, were marching in triumph down
Copperas-hill! A good retreat is always preferable to a
bad fight, so thought the " fancy ;" but their triumph was
short-lived, for the flying artillery of the Blues brought
their guns, alias their hard stick batons, into play on rear
of the retiring foe, and made them march in double quick
time out of—that! The enemy now beg.an to fly in great
disorder, as their ranks were broken, and they ran hel er
skelter. They had made a provison for this, not unforseea
catastrophe, for they had appointed a place of rendezvous
to collect their scattered forces. The Blues, having driven
the enemy from their stronghold, were content to watch
their manceuvres for the remainder of the day ; but whether
" Mickey Free" and " Lancashire " Pincher" met in deadly
conflict, backed for seer ral hundreds aside, the despatches
saith not. If, however, they did, it mist have been outside
the borough boundaries of Liverpool, for, up to a late hour
yesterday evening the Blues were at their post, so that
nothing wrong happened within that magic circle.

ANOTHER ROYAL MARRIAGE.—The Dresden Gazette says
that the Archduke Charles Louis of Austria will, on the 6,h
of September, make a formal demand for the hand of the
Princess Margaret of Saxony, and that a grand fete will be
afterwards given at Court.

POST OFFICE LEGIERDEMAIN.—It is rumoured that the
wizard of the General Post Office has discovered a trick by
which to get any amount of augmented duty performed not
only without additional, but at a reduced cost. The secret
of this legerdemain lies in putting extra work ad infiaitunt
on the clerks without a farthing ,of extra pay, and in making
sorters at £1 a week operate as established functional ies.—

AN ENERGETIC - -----
PAR:VER.— Last week (says the Lincoln
Mercury) a farm
1- f under each
farmer at Ryhall was seen carrying wheat
held to his dwelling, conveying a s _ea
from a
arm. The circumstance was observed by a neighbour,
fire, and
who proceeded to the farm house, where he saw a large
before it the farmer's wife engaged in drying the sheaves. We are informed that corn, the produce of
three acres of land, was dried in this novel manner.
THE LONDON DISCOUNT COMPANY.—At length
the
prospectus of the new Discount Company, so long spoken
of, and which is to be called the London Discount Com-
pany, has been issued. The capital is to be £1,000,000, in
50,000 shares of 4:20 each. The directors are gentlemen
of the highest respectability and influence. The pros-
pectus is brief, merely stating the objects of the company,
and there can be no doubt that the
money will be readily
subscribed, this description of enterprise being extremely
popular among the speculative and general public.;

THE NORTHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, TUISDAY.

WHEAT CROP OF THE UNITED STATES
AND OF EUROPE.

(From the Cincinnati Prices Current, August G.)

The harvest being now pretty well over, and the wheat
crop of the country mostly secured in good order ; and
being in possession of very full and satisfactory informa-
tionfrom all parts of the country, we are enabled to give
a pretty accurate estimate of the extent of the crop of the
present year. It is true that, generally speaking., the
yield per acre will not be a large one—not quite an aver-
age--but a greater breadth of land was sown with wheat
last fall than ever before, owing to the prevailing high
prices current for wheat, together with the favourable
weather, both offering strong inducements to the farmer
to cultivate this grain, and the result is that the quantity
of wheat gathered the present harvest is greater
by fully ten per cent. than has been gathered
any previous season; and, not only this, but it
has been secured in the best possible condition.
Last year the crop was a very good One, but fully one-
half of that in the Northern States was damaged by wet,
and the one-fourth of that thus damaged was so badly in-
jured that it was unmerchantable ; but, notwithstanding
this, we exported more wheat and wheat flour to foreign
countries than ever before in any one season, except, per-
haps, 1853, and had a surplus left, as the receipts this
suinwer prove ; and there is no doubt that should the crops
tail in Europe even partially, we shall be able to send to
England and the Continent more flour and wheat by
twenty-five per cent. than we did last or any previous
year, should prices be sufficiently high to induce ship-
.

We have carefully examined the-advt

)LICE COURT.-YESTERDAY

(DEFORE MR. ALDERMAN TIOLME.)

INGRATTTUDE.—A shabby and dirty looking fellow,
named William Hayes, alias Page, was charged by a
very nice looking and well dressed young woman, named
Anne Brown, with having stolen a purse and 17s 6d from
her. The girl told a very curious story, the amount of
which was to the following. effect—and, from the
difference of appearance of the parties, much surprise
was created. The girl said she met the prisoner in the
street, and at cnce took a great liking to him. She took
him to a public-house, and treated him to some drink.
She had her purse, which contained 17s 6(1, in a bag,
which she tarried in her hand, and which contained
personal articles, as she Was on a visit in town. She
went to another house, and, after spending some time
there, they went into the street, when the prisoner
wanted to carry the bag, but she refused, when he
snapped the bag, broke it open, and took the purse out of
it, and she then seized him. and they were straggling
for it, when a police officer came up and took the
prisoner into cusiody, and found the purse in his hand.
His Worship said, according to the girl's own showing,
he must discharge the prisoner.
Susricious.—Detective officer Sullivan brought up a
fellow named Peter Rickett, on a charge of having four
brass taps, apparently belonging to a brewer, in his
possession, On Saturday, the prisoner offered the taps for

_ -
sale to a marine-store dealer, named James Follows, in
Preston-street, but, as he could not tell where he got
the articles, he handed him over to Sullivan, who now
asked for a remand, on the ground that he had not had
time to look for an owner. Remanded accordingly.

ILLEGAL PLEDGlNG.—Catherine Reed and William
Ebbles, were charged with illegally pledging a watch,
belonging to a sailor named Joshua Lawrence. Mr.
Bluck defended. On Friday week the prosecutor lost
his watch and chain in Peter-street, and it appeared that
the man was identified as the person who subsequently
pledged it. In reply to Mr. Bluck, the prosecutor
denied that he had given the watch to any one to pledge.
There was £2 lent on the watch. A witness who was
put up for the prosecutor, in cross—examination, admitted
that she took the watch and gave it to the man to pledge.
His worship did not think the evidence sufficient, and
discharged the prlsorierg.

Of infordiation communicated to the officers by a Mrs.
Hannah Cotter, who resides in Plumbs-street, that they
went to an ale and porter store, kept by MeasrA. Wolfe
and Co., in the above street, and there they saw the
prisoners—one coming out of the centre of the store
with two bottles of ale in his hand—the other was
standing at the door, having the keys, as he was the
storekeeper. On asking what they were doing there?
they said they were working all night, in order to com-
plete an order for a ship. On enquiring of the owners
of the store, it sppeared that they had no right to be
la the store. Boyd was the warehouse•keeper, and
kept the key of the stores, and the other
prisoner worked in the store. Mrs. Cotter said,
about three o'clock in the morning she heard a noise,
and on looking out of her window, she saw the prisoners
and gave notice to the police. In reply to the officers,
the prisoners, when arrested, said they had come to
prevent an escape of water. (A. voice : It was the
ale that was escaping.) Mr: Goodier appeared for
the prisoners, and cross examined Mrs. Cotter, in order
to show that she had a spite against the prisoners, in
consequence of the loss of a favourite torn cat,
hot she denied that she had any " .1" rudffe"

against them on that account. Ur. Wolfe_ proved
that the prisoners had no business in the store, except to
steal, at the time in quetion, The defnce set up by
Mr. Goodier was, that the wife of Boyd had quarrelled

respectable young woman, said, that she claimed
the protection of the court, as her husband was
always annoying her, and on Vriday night had
assaulted her and threatened her life Her melancholy
history was as follows :—She had been married to the
prisoner about five years. He then kept a public-
house, but from his having drank too deeply, and neg-
lected his business, they were not able to get any " stuff."
to sell. About two years ago, he turned her out of the
house, since when they had been separated, she having
been partially maintained by her father and friends.
She had had a situation, but was compelled to give it
up, because the prisoner was always annoying her, and
then she went to live with Mrs. Hughes, in a street off
Paddington. On Tuesday night he went there, and fired
a pistol, and then broke the window by throwing a large
stone into the room ; and on Friday, he accosted her in
the street, used most filthy expressions towards
her, struck her with an umbrella, and threatened to run
a knife into her as long as his arm. She said she did
not require any assistance from him, all she wanted was
not to be molested, and to have her friends kept from
being annoyed. Mrs. Hughes was calle I, and corrobo-
rated the evidence of the complainant as to his breaking
her windows and throwing the stone into her room,
on Thursday night. Mr. Roby, who appeared
for the prisoner, said he was instructed to
deny the whole charge. Mr. Mansfield, after
having characterised the conduct of the prisoner as most
malignant, fiendish, and abominable, ordered him to
enter into his own recognisances for £5O, and to find two
sureties of £25 each, to keep the peace, and be of good
behaviour for six months, at the same time informing
him that, if he was set at liberty, and another complaint
was made against him, he should require larger
securities, and for double the time
A CONARDLY SCOUND/IgL. - William Dunn, a
mechanic, living in the locality of Brunswick-road, was
charged with assaulting the landlady of the Brunswick
vaults, in Oswald Street. The complainant stated
that, on Saturday night, she saw the prisoner in the
Belgrave vaults, reckoning up his money, when she
went and asked him if he did not intend to pay her what
he owed her. He replied, " I have nought for you,"
and, after some few words, he stamped upon her toes,
and when she endeavoured to push him off, he struck her
a violent blow in the face, which made the blood gush
from her nose and mouth. With some difficulty he was
secured, and a policeman was sent for. The daughter
of the complainant went into the town with the police-
man, and, upon her pointing him out as the wretch that
hsd struck her mother, he gave her such a blow on the
ear, that felled her to the ground. The policeman (187)
witnessed the last assault, but had not time to prevent
it. Mr. Mansfield ordered the prisoner to pay a fine of
£2O- and in default of payment, to be imprisoned for six
months with hard labour.

CHILD DESERTION. —Mary Cavanagh was charged with
deserting her child on Wednesday last, by leaving it in
an entry. The nurse at the workhouse stated that the
prisoner had been delivered in the workhouse, and went
out on Wednesday last; and in the course of the after-
noon the child was brought back, having been found in
an entry with its clothing nearly all taken off. The
prisoner admitted that she had put the child in the
entry, and left it there, but stated she was in drink at
the time, and could not find it when she went to look
for it. Mr. Mansfield said he scarcely ever heard of such
abominable and unnatural conduct on the part of a
mother. He had no doubt but that she had stripped the
poor infant of its clothes to procure drink with. He
ordered her to be imprisoned for one month, with hard
labour.

THE ACCIDENT AT GOODWOOD.—Bartholomew is now
enabled to take both diving and walking exercise, and has
been pronounced out of danger.
INSURANCE OF FARMING STOCK.—The insurance offices
have found it necessary, in consequence of the frequency of
fires which take place in farming stock, to raise the rates on
this description of property to 4s. per cent. The offices
which have come to this determination, insure, we believe,
five sixths of the farming stock thus protected in this
kingdom.

THE NEW INCUMBERED ESTATES Acr.—The new act to
extend the period of applying for sales in the Incumbered
Estates Court in Ireland and to amend the acts on the
same, contains a clause of considerable importance. Under
the former acts there was no appeal without the permission
of the commissioners, but now appeals may be made as of
right. Applications for sale may be made within five years
from the 28th July, 1853. By the former act the period
was limited to three years, which would have expired last
July,

A FEMININE FREAK WITH TROUSERS.—FOWLER V.
NATLon.—This was an action brought by Jasper Fowler to
recover £2 from Joseph Naylor, laceman, of 25, Chnreh-
The plaintiff was what may be known as an "elderly
young man," having rather a lachrymose expression of coin-
The defendant being absent, was represented by
Mrs. Naylor, who came attended by a formidable bah of
female witnesses. The, plaintiff stated that he was engaged as
sbopman in Mr. Naylor's, at the rate of £52 a year, and with
the arrangement that he was to have one week's notice in the
event of dismitHal. He alleged that he was dismissed without
any such notice, on a Wednesday, and claimed £l, as wages for
that week, and tl in lieu of notice. Mrs. Naylor alleged
that the plaintiff himself told her twice that he would leave,
and although she requested him to remain until Mr. Naylor
returned from the Isle of Man, he persisted in leaving on
the Wednesday. She added that the plaintiff used very
