ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

Dum,Ev.- -Mr. K. B. Sheridan, M.P., has inti-
mated, by letter, to a gentleman in Dudley, his intention
of again soliciting the suffrages of the electors at the forth-
coming ekotion. It is not probable, however, that any
immediate steps will be taken by Mr. Sheridan.
PrflsnrrtY.—Last night a special meeting of
the Holborn branch of the Reform League was held for the
purpose of drawing up an address to the electors of Fins-
bury. Mr. Galbraith, who occupied the chair, said it
should be known that neither the Reform League nor the
Holborn branch of that body had anything whatever to
do with the invitation to Mr. G. W. M. Reynolds to
become a candidate for the representation of the borough.
The following resolution was then paned :—" That the
Holborn branch of the Reform League are prepared to
support the present members for 'Finsbury (Mr. Alderman
Lusk and Mr. Tommie), and they deem it unadvisable to
bring forward any candidate who might create discord
amongst the liberal party." Itwasalsoagreedthatanaddrees
to the electors should be at once drawn up and circulated.
Mr. Reynolds has sent the following letter to the secre-
tary of the Democratic League :—" No. 41, Woburn-
square, July 29, 1868.—My dear Sir —I feel highly flat-
tered by the pi oqiemade bythe Democratic League, and
confirmed by a public meeting, that I should come
forward as a cand• for the representation of Finsbury.
With pride and pleasure should I accept the invitation, but
. I understand that there is a division amongst the loaders of
the working classes in the borough, and that while some
would give their support to me, others have already
pledged themselves irrevocably to the sitting members,
Mews. Lusk and Torrens. I have, however,
been gratified by the assurance that, if promises
bad not been already given, the party so pledged would
have most assuredly used all their influence on my behalf.
, However in these circumstances, I feel it would be wrong
for me to accept a candidature which might have the
effect of dangeroussly dividing the liberal interest, and
which would aswmdly tend to embitter one section of
the working classes against another. lam therefore pain-
fully compelled to decline the invitation so flatteringly
conveyed to me, and of which I shall ever cherisha grate-
ful recollection. As I have received some other requisi-
tions to stand forward at the approaching election, I lope
that I shall yet represent the working-class intend m
the next parliament.—l remain, my dear air, yours very
faithfully, Groans W. M. Barricoite."
KENDAL.—The electors of this borough have
acted promptly. On being informed by Mr. G. C. Glyn,
111. P., that he should not seek to be re-elected, a com-
mittee of one hundred electors was forthwith appointed.
This body at once ascertained the wishes of the electors
by receiving signatures to a requisition to the mayor, Mr.
Whitwell, to fill the vacancy to arise. On Monday night
a public meeting was held, Mr. James Edmondson in the
chair, and the requisition was presented to, and accepted
by, Mr. Whitwell with much cheering. The conditaency
now numbers 1,866 electors, including 460 ten-yrund
householders; both sections comprise a large majority of
liberals. Of the 1,760 who might come to the poll Mr.
Whitwell has 1.346 requisitionists, and between ace and
two hundred additional promises. This mode of pre-
settling an election ia_ prompt and praiseworthy.
PONTEFRACT.—Mr. George Wilson, of ,Man-
chester, an been invited to be the liberal candidate, in
conjunction with Mr. Childers.
flouTn LANCASHIRE.—Mr. Glaastone is ex-
pected
in Liverpool next week, and ft's stated that he
will at once commence his electioneering campaign in
South Lancashire.
WurruixsTEß.—A meeting of electors of the
city of Westminster was held last night at the Black
Swan, Ryder's-court, Newport-market, Mr. Leno to the
chair, in support of the return of the 'Hon.. R. W.
Grosvenor and Mr. J. 8. Mill. The chairman said that:the
manner in which Mr. Smith's committee were working in
that gentleman'. interest made it incumbent NS every
- liberal elector of Westminster to redouble his exertions
for the return of the present members. Mr. Jas. Bailey
moved, Mr. Serie seconded, and it was carried :
" not we, members of St. Ann's Electoral Assoeimion,
pledge ourselves to use every constitutional means in our
power to secure the return to Parliament of the -Hon. R.
W. Grosvenor and John Stuart Mill, Esq." Mr. Ann-
stead moved, Mr. Benny seconded, and it was carried:—
"That seeing the unscrupulous means being employed by
Mr, Smith's committee to secure that gentleman's return,
we-call upon every lodger to come forward and enrol
himself on the electoral roll." An unpaid house tc house
canvass was then decided on for Bt. Ann's district, 10
voliateers having offered their services.

KING'S-CROSS MARICEr.

An important experiment will be tried in a
few days at Ning's-cross. A new market will
be opened there on the Bth August, for fill, meat,
poultry, provisions, fruit and vegetables, and
the large and small shops of the district will be
exposed to the competition of dealers who are in
direct communication with the groat sources of
London's supply. Nothing Gan be plainer or
more practical than the scheme of the new market.
" A saving of two shillings per ton in railway
carriage and free return of empties, a saving of
three or four hours in time, and an avoidance of
injury and knocking about in transit," are among
the inducements put forth by its proprietors. But
the situation of the new market and the wants
of the neighbourhood speak for themselves.
Between the gigantic railway station buildinjgol
the Midland Company and that of the
Northern, and in the centre of one of the most
densely populated neighbourhoods in London,
Ring's-cross market is sure of a ready sale of
all noceesaries which tan be procured these
better and cheaptir than outside. Nothing can be
simpler than the architecture of the new building,
nothing plainer or more practical than its fitting
up into shops and stalls. A large manufactory or
workman's shop seems to have been enlarged and
modified, and a façade and frontage given to it like
those of &riding school or mews. It is absolutely
destitute of decoration ; and is in every particu-
lar the reverse of the magnificent structure Mies
Coutta is erecting at Bethnal-green. That, too,
is a market for a less wealthy class than the one
at King's-cross will include. But it has spires
and stained glass, coloured marble, and ornate
carvings, a covered promenade, and residences
which bachelors in the Albany might envy. The
market-hall in which the Whiteohapel water-
monger will, it is expected, sell, and the Spitalfields
weaver or match-box maker buy, resembles some
grand old Flemish cathedral just restored regard-
less of expense. In short, the Bethnal-green
market gives promise of being one of the very
handsomest buildings in London, and does infi-
nite credit, as a work of art, to the taste and skill
of Mr. Darbishire, its architect. But any one who
visits King's-cross with this structure in his eye, and
who expects to find another like it, will be wofully
disappointed. There is nothing esthetic, or fanci-
ful, or even pretty, in the place. The counters
and panelling of the shops are of unpainted wood,
the flooring is of asphalte, the walla are bare, and
the roof is a hybrid of slates, and tiles, and glass.
But every inch is made available, and it looks like
what it is intended for. The retail market is in
the centre of the group of buildings, and consists
of eighty-six stalls or shops, ten feet widoandfour-
teen feet deep, giving an area of ono hundred and
forty feet to each. It is divided into two avenues,
so that every shop has a full frontage. There are no
private rooms—indeed no rooms of any kind. The
space is all for the articles sold, and the tenants
must rest and sleep elsewhere. On one side of the
central or retail portion are the wholesale meat and
wholesale vegetable departments ; on the other,
fish and provisions are sold wholesale and retail.
The entrance to all these departments is in St.
Pancras-road, some fifty yards beyond the
passenger-turning to the Great Northern sta-
tion; and here is to stand the mar-
ket hotel, through an archway of which the
customers and vendors will enter, much as the
court-yard of the Grand Hotel at Paris is gained
from the boulevard it stands upon.
Alreadyseveral well-known names from Billings-
gate and Leadenhall are inscribed in chalk over
the market shops, and already more than three-
fourths of its total space is let. If the experiment
is successful, the effect upon the food supply of
the neighbourhood will be very great indeed.

The commission for the howdy of fluirey was opened
here on Tuesday, lila business was proceeded with
this morning at ten o'clock, Baron Martin presiding on
the civil side, and Justice Wiles in the Crown court.
The gaol calendar is remarkably light, there being only
14 prisoners for trial, and nearly all the owe are of the
ordinary character. On the civil side there are I 3 causes
entered, nearly 60 of which are set down to be tried by
special juries. It is very probable, however, that a great
many of the ceases will be either withdrawn or referred,
and it is expected that the business will be got through by
the end of next week. It is very probable that the mint,
nal business will be finished to-morrow (Thursday), wit if
that should be the cue Mr. Justice Wiles will orninnence
trying civil causes on Friday, and solicitors clad witnesses
will do well, therefore, to be in attendance, or their
causes may be very summarily diepbbed of.

NORTHERN CIRCITIT-11ANCIIESTER, JuLy29.

The burliness of the assists for the Hundred of Salford
was opened this morhing. Mr. Justice liannen melded
in the criminal ecrtrrt, and in charging the grand jury
said he regretted that • perusal of the-calendar led him
to fear that the duties of the grand jury would be both
long and arduous ; for it exhibited • sad catalogue of
crime of every degree, from murder downward. With
regard to the case of murder, it afforded him anotheroppor-
tunity of saying that which he had had occasion to
say before to the present grand jury—that it was painful
to contemplate how large a proportion of the crime tried
before these courts arose directly or indirectly from
drunkenness. In this particular instance the offence,
whatever it might turn out to be, appeared to have arisen
out of the drunkenness of the deceased person
and the drunkenness of the person who had committed
the crime. Whatever the crime might turn out to be,
there had been a life taken under such circumstances
as must necessarily put the person accused to the proof
that his crime was less than murder. There were also on
the calendar, he regretted to say, a great number of cases
of violence towards women, and two of these were cases
of peculiar atrocity—one from the circumstance that there
were three persons engaged in it, and another from the
peculiarly close relationship between the accused and the
person assaulted. With regard to the other cases, he
thought it might be well for the grand jury to consider
whether they could see their way to the probability of
conviction in all these cases, and if they should come to
the conclusion that there was not a reasonable proba-
bility of conviction, he thought they should con-
sider whether it would not be well to put an
end to the further investigation of some of these
cases. There was then a long catalogue of
manalaughters and felonious wounding, which,
however, did not call for special observation
on his part. But there were some cases—very numerous
indeed—of rioting and riotous attacks upon buildings,
particularly upon the Roman catholic chapel at Ashton-
under-Lyne. These constituted a large section of the
cases which would come before them. It appeared that
there was a great state of excitement in the town of
Ashton-under-Lyne, and the population appeared to have
divided itself into two bands, of which one seemed to
have been called the Irish mob, and the other the English
mob. Their feelings appear to have become greatly ex-
cited, and very grievous acts were committed on both
sides. It appeared to be clear that many persona were
armed with deadly weapons. Several persons were
injured, and on one of the days during which these
disturbances continued, an attack was made upon a
Roman catholic chapel. There could be no doubt what-
ever, therefore, upon these things being proved, that it
would be established that a riot had taken place in that
town on these days, because to constitute a riot it was
only necessary that three or more persons should have
met together under such circumstances as to excite terror
among well-disposed persona, by reason of their conduct,
or because they were in possemon of deadly weapons, as
many of those persons were. The question the grand jury
would have to consider was, whether in such came it was
likely to be made out that the persons accused were
actually engaged in the disturbances, or aided in creating
terror. The charge of attempting to demolish a Roman
Catholic chapel was a much more serious affair, becalm
it constituted a felonious offence. The grand jury
would have to consider whether or not the persona col-
lected together on this occasion had an intention to de-
molish the building. It was not sufficient that they should
have intended to do some injury to the building ; they
must have intended ty demolish it, and to render it unfit
to be used for the purposes for which it bad been designed
in order that the charge should amount to • felony or
not. If it did not, the persons accused would be open
to the charge of rioting and injuring a building. So
that if the grand jury did not come to the con-
clusion that there was an intention to demolish the
building, the prisoners would be liable to the minor
charge. It was greatly to be regretted that they
should be called upon to investigate offences arising out
of excitement of this kind. He could not recollect,
from the depositions, which party began the fray, and
iii was obvious for the purposes of the court it was
of no importance, because whatever was the order of
the events, the crime was the same. Nor was he sure that
there was any great utility in attempting to discriminate
either in that respect or between theme persons who sought
to stimulate national antipathies and to stir up strife
between different persona, or those who incited to open
outrage by insults offered to the religion of another party.
Let it be their endeavour to show that the law was de-
signed to afford equal protection to the innocent, and to
award equal punishment to the guilty, whether they were
English or Irish, Roman catholic or protestant. With
regard to the remaining long list of offences, he did not
think there was any case which required special observa-
tion on his part. If, contrary to his expectation, the
grand jury should require his advice, he would be very
glad to give it, and he now dismissed them to the discharge
of their duty.
The trial of prisoners was afterwards proceeded with.

Mr. Knoz—How ie it that it was not known to be bad

24, a stioag who ha. ft
been before the COUrt far al,nratilta upon the notee 0111.1 thu
workhouse °flirts* woe, charffed with airfunin7
the task allotted by the guorlians mid u.,uutting the
master.

From the evishaeo of BoMoth, the miller to +Jo: lt I.IP,
it appeared that prisoner worked in the yard, h, an out-
door pauper. About 2 o'clock on Tuesday iitlprtioon ho re-
fused toperform his task, and on wiliness trying to per-
suade him to comply he made me of moat violent and dis-
gusting language. The matter, Mr. C•tch, rianon Xrated
with him, when he became extremely violent, and struck
bim a blow on the side of the face. He was promading
further to assault him, but woe prevented by the arrival of
the police.
Hr. C•ttdt hilly bore out this testimony, and added
further that prisoner was one of • gang of young fellowi
Akitae custom it had been to take their discharge in tee
morning and return in the evening, after getting drunk. In
order to put • stop to this the guardians had parsed a reso-
lution which prevented their admission to the house, but
giving them out relief, for which they had to work in the
mill yard. The prisoner and others • few days back fol-
lowed him in the streets, threw large stones, and mate uae
of threatening language.
Mr. Knox sentenced the prisoner to two months, with
bard labour,
TIMMRS.

Margaret Smith, a ntioniuraboitt 30 years of age, was
brourAht before Mr. leenson on remand, on a charge of pot-
stealing.
On the afternoon of Tueeday, the 21st instant, the pri-
soner entered the Star public-Muse in Duke-street, St.
George's-in-the-East, took a pot oil • barrel in front of
the bar, and walked away with it. The robbery was ob-
served by Mr. Mortlock, the landlord of the Star,
who followed her out of the house, and took the pot
from her. At the same time he found a quart pot on hor
belonging to Mr. Henry Pusey, the landlord of the
George, a large tavern in the Commercial-road. Mr.
Bilberry, one of Mr. Pueey's barmen, saw the prisoner
there on the previous Saturday morning, on which day a
quart put was lost, and again on Monday, on the evening
of which day she was taken into custody, and the pot
taken from her was missing when she left A pair of gold
earrings were taken from her, and her possession of them
did not appear at all consistent with her emphatic declara-
tion of poverty and that her husband had boon oat of
work for some lime. She also said that a man gave her
the pots, and that she intended to sell them to get a bit of
bread with. Mr. Benson thought that pot stealing
was the regular profession of the prisoner' and remanded
her. On her second appearance before the magistrate
on Tuesday, it was stated by Charles Turner, police-con-
Stable No. 49 K, that the prisoner refused to give her
address when she was taken into custody, and said she
was a poor charwoman, who lived anywhere. Ho hal
since made inquiries about her, and ascertained that she
bad been living in • state of adultery with a man at a
house in Tailing-street, St. George's-in-the-East. Her
paramour absconded on the night of her apprehension.
He searched the room vacated by the prisoner and her
companion. There was • large iron kettle which had been
cared in melting down pewter meaftures; and under the
floor were hiding places for pots, in which he found seve-
ral pieces of pewter.
Mr. Puzey'ri barman said for three weeks previous to
the prisoner's apprehension pots were continually missed
from the Mien. - Not one had been lost since the prisoner
was in custody.
The prisoner said she had had no victuals for three days
when she took the pots, and that she had never been in a
police court before.
Mr. Benson said that the evidence given by the con-
etable confirmed him in the suspicion he originally enter-
tained, that the prisoner was a professional thief. He sen-
tenced her to be imprisoned for two months and kept to
hard labour.
