FRANKFORT.

The Frankfort senate has communicated to
the central government its resell:dim to main-
tain newrality upon the question of popular
rights and peculiar privileges to be enjoyed by the
city as the seat of the central administration. The
claim of the senate to be consulted in the matter of
the interior excited much discussion in the govern-
ment council, some of the members of which saw in
it an attempt to prejudice the rights of the csllective
body of the citizens. This matter, as well as the
former, was referred to a committee.

SARDINIA.
TURIN, Aram 9.
A signal victory hat jest been gamed here in
favour of the liberal cause, not only in Piedmont and
in Italy, but alio, though indirectly, in Europe. An
assembly, composed of elements essentially conserva-
tive (the senate of Turin), has nobly broken ter )ugh
the trammels of superstitious illiberality, and Las
boldly proclaimed as it has candidlT admitted i.e
abandonment of an odious system of privilege hitherto
in use.

The senate, in its sitting of yesterday, adapted by
a majority of 22 votes (51 against 29) the law pro-
posed by ministers, and already voted by the Chamhrr
of Deputies by an immense majority, that of the
abolition of exc-ptional and special tribunals f the
clergy, ar d on the right of asylum in places of I efuge,
where the guilty were screened from pun;s' meet
under cover of an inviolable shelter in certain religious
establishments, churches, convents, and the like.
Yesterday evening, some persons were desirous of
.
making a flittering demonstration of their joy on the
occasion and in honour of the Minister of Justice,
Con it Siccardi, who had brought forward the law, but
the latter had declared, on a recent occasion, that h.
would not allow of public order being in any way dis-
turbed, and lilt all public demonstrati ms would he
prevented, uo matter in what sense they might he
made; and in ace-Hance with this resolution, the
armed force dispersed immediately the groups from
which proceeded any cries, which, however, fortu-
nately, was not attended with any consequences of a
deplorable nature. The crowds formed on diff. rent
points dispersed at the approach of the troops, and all
was over in a short time.

The Marquis d'Az:glio, the President of the Coun-
cil of Ministers, thought it Lis duty to put on his
unifmm as a colonel of horse, and place himself at the
head of a patrol of cavalry, going many rounds through
the streets.

RAILWAYS.

This DAY, Two o'Cueir.
The market for railway shares is rather heavy in
tone to-day, and prices generally are not so good
as at the termination of business yester-
day, owing principally to the traffic re-
turns for several of the leading lines for
the last week not ooming ap to the expectations gene.
rally entertained. Caledonians have declined to 8 ;
Midlands, 361; Great Westerns mark 69; South
Euterns, 15. The business going forward is limited.

LAMBETH.
RITRAORDINAIIIT COA.IOI or BIOAIR —Mr. Henry
Pay. . a motor bricklayer, who hes beta ;in custody since
blvnday, was again brought up on • charge of administeriag
something of a &Usurious nature to Mrs. Emma Clark, and
also
rie condtracting a marriage with her, both being previously
mar.

An attempt was made to chew that the prisoner had ad-
ministered some poisonous drug to the complainant and the
charge was searchingly investigated, but fell to the ground.
Mr. Elliott desired that Mrs. Clark should be pieced in the
dock sloped& the rimer on a charge of bigamy.
Donald Boras, 120 M, deposed that after the prisoner had
been given into his custody by Mr. Clark, hetalled to see Mrs.
Clark and anortain if she was lc a fit state to attend at this
"curt and found that she was not. She was in bed, and
informed him (witness) that the had been married to the
male prisoner on the 10th of Febrnary, 1848, at All &int',
Poplar church, in the name of Emma Smith, and that
the clerk and pew-opener were the two witnesses.
Mr John Philo, clerk at All Saints Poplar church, pro-
duced the register of marriages there, and on A. 10th of
February, 1848, appeared an entry of marriage between
Harry Dixon and Emma Smith, and which was witnessed
by himself and Francis Bagels, who was them' pew opener,
bat who was since dead. lie could not identify the prisoners
as the parties who had been married on that partthalar day,
but had no doubt whatever they had been married at Poplar.
Mr. Salomon' contended that inasmuch as the parties
were married at the time, the marriage was a perfect nullity.
IA•. viii!tt observed that this might be with respect to
the legality of the marriage, but it did not remove the charge
of bigamy. The case, he admitted, was one of a very pe-
culiar character, and In order to give the officer further
lime to collect the necessary evidence, he should remand the
prisoners for a week.
On the application of Mr. Salomon', the male prisoner was
admitted to ball.

Baron MA. SilusANT ADANA, AND • BUSCH OF MAONTLATIM
ROBBERY IT A MEDICAL STUDENT.
Massie Lloyd l'ooci, a respectable looking young man,
described es • medical student, was indicted for having
stolen • nautilus life preserver, and an antique pistol, the
property of Colonel Arthur Howe Holdsworth, and others,
the trustees of the United Service Institution, from their
museum in Whitehall-yard.
Mr. O'Brien appeared for the prisoner.
There were two indictments against the prisoner, and the
following were the facts adduced in support of them. The
prisoner had access to the museum, and the articles in ques-
tion were missed shortly after they had been seen safe by
the secretary, Mr. Tcnna. The prisoner bad sold them to
two different parties, and when he was apprehended be gave
contradictory accounts as to how he came in posameion of
them.
. . . . . .

The prisoner was Acquitted on the first indictment under
the direction of the court, on the; ground' that the life-
preserver was not sufficiently described in the indictment.
He was found Guilty on the second.
Mr. O'Brien called Mr. Louis Smith, of Reigate, who said
that the Rev. Cornelius Gorham and Archdeacon Balmy
were the trustees under the marriage settlement of the pri-
loner's mother, and he (Mr. Smith) was a trusteo under a
new appointment. The prisoner bad always borne a
good character, and was articled to Mr. Lane, a surgeon, in
Covent-garden.
Mr. Lewis Hippolytus Tonna, the secretary to the insti-
tution, said it was with the greatest reluctance that he had
had to aseurae the character of prosecutor, as he knew the
prisoner to be the son of a highly respectable officer.
Mr. O'Brien said the truth was that the prisoner owed his
unhappy situation to irregular and dissipated habits.
The court sentenced the prisoner to three months' hard
labour.

Any such evasion must, for obvious reason', generally occur
on bonds. Ac., for small amounts, and as on these the duty is

It
is well known to all parties movement with business of
this description, that by far the largest member of transaetims
must be on soma this amount, sad that nearly the
whole revenue is derived not from the higher amount of duty
on the few large transactions, but from the duty paid on the
mash greater number of moderate amounts.
It Is also to be recollected that, Mate the introduction of
the bill, relief has been extended to various descriptions of
Instruments beyond what was originally intended; such as
transfers of mortgages, memorials of registration, admittances
to aopyholds, du olicatesof conveyances of («l-am rows, and

TIMBER DUTIES.

Mr. MITCHELL postponed his motion fur going into
committee on this question for a fortnight, when, he begged
$. give notice to the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of
the Ezcheque. be would certainly brine it forward.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER admitted
that the timber duties were in • most uneatisfactcry state.
Yet, having taken every possible means to ascertain if the
views impressed by the hon. gentleman on the house could
be carried into effect as regarded the proposed drawback, he
should say that be could not at all agree with him; and
should therefore be prepared to oppose the motion wh
it might be brought forward.
Lord JOCELYN hoped the question would be speedily
settled ; as to his own knowkdge, many persons knew net
whether to send their ships to the Baltic for repairs, or keep
them It home. He regretted that on • former °edition,
when he put a question to the right bon. gentleman the
Chancell a of the Exchequer on the subject, he did not re-
ceive as courteous an answer as he thought he was entitled
' to. He regretted the right hon. gentleman allowed his
temper to have got the b tier of his judgment on the
occasion.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER disclaimed
all intention of discourtesy to the noble lord.
After a few words from Sir G. PECKBL and Mr. HVDSON,
as to the necessity of speedily determining the question, the
matter dropped.
The other orders of the day were then disported of, and the
hawse adjourned at 20 Lantos after 12 o'clock.
