LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT

-YESTERDO*

(Before J. S. MANSFIELD, Esq.)

FRAUDS BY A CLERK,--WilliaM Rose was brow ht
up on remand en two charges: Mr. Bina`ppeared Or
the defence, and, Mr. C: for•the prosecution'
The,prisoner, it appeared, had been a clerk in the em-
ploy. of Messrs: Duncan, Squarey, and.Blackmore. The
prosecutor in the. charge was a young man named George
John Cadden, a fellow clerk. This gentleman was de-
sirous to dispose of a coat-and vest, and -eniployed
prisoner to act as broker in the sale of them. In due
course he announced,._ to his principal, Mr. Caddell,
that he had sold • the articles for 275., I?u,t,
the 'person Was unable at--- present to'''
the money.. ..Subsequently, however, the .prosecuter
discovered:that the -prisoner bad not sold. the articles,
but had pledged-them for 10s., And applied the moue
to, his own purposes. Witnesses were;brought fervor
who substantiated these statements. The second
charge was embezzling money belongingdata
to his 4,
employers. A number of years ago, a law suit arose ea`
of an accident which happened to the ship ,6 Siert'
Nevada," _Wheii ;going into dock. - In this law Fai!,_
Messrs. Duncan and Co. acted. as attorneys. This
prisoner was" deputed, and 'received money to pal $
number of men who had been employed about the ehiP
after the accident. To, one man, named George LarLcillo
to whom LI was'dne,`the prisoner only. paid 4s. The
charge was also sustained by evidence, and the prisoner/
by the advice of his counsel, pleaded guilty taboth. The
magistrates accordingly sentenced him to six months'
imprisonment, -with hard labour.
SHEEP STEALING.—Joseph Allan, who was brought
up on Tuesday on the charge of stealing four shoe?,
was brought up again to.:day, when additional evidence
was produced and the, prisoner committed for, trial.
BRUTAL ASSAULT ON A WlFE.—Patrick Canavan'
residing in • 17, -Denbigh-street, was brought up on $
charge of committing an,assault on his wife. The poor.
Woman, who was in a very dangerous condition, could
not appear to give evidence. The prisoner' was re-
manded for seven days. the

VOLU NTEER MOVEMENT.

WALLASEY ARTILLERY CORPS

A laige and most enthusiastic public meeting of the
inhabitants of the township of Wallasey was held 2 last
night in the school-room of the Wesleyan Chapel, for
the purpose of establishing an Artillery Corps in addition

to the Volunteer Rifle Corps already organised. A large
number of the fair sex Was piesent, and the rifles attended
in full uniform. The gallant fellows presented a thorough
soldier-like appearance and .bearing.

priate remarks introduced the business of the meeting.
He then called upon Mr. Ewart, M.P., to move the first
resolution.
Mr. EwART, who was received with prolonged ap-
plause, said, " Ladies and gentlemen, I have very great
pleasure indeed in being present on this occasion. That
pleasure is very much enhanced when I recollect that I
had not the gratification of witnessing the ceremony
which took.place a short time ago in St. George's-hall.
But I had the honour of being present at these meetings
which inaugurated the rifle movement in Liverpool.

Mary Cross, beerhouse-keeper, Blackstock-street, sc°
summoned for permitting drunkenness. The officer
who laid the information' replied to 'Mr. Bremner, 0.11„°
appeared for the defence, that he did not see anytilm
drank or paid for by, the drunken man, but that a gl
of ale was on the counter. The case was dismissed.

_ John Metcalf, publican, Rathbone-street, was Wl'
moned for selling beer at twenty minutes to one o'clock
on Sun* morning. Mr. Rymer for the defence said that
his client's plock-was slow and he was. not aware that
his time was up. He would produce the clock
maker, to prove that he was not' there. (Laughter.)
The Bench considered that. there might be a differena°
of fourteen minutes beween two clocks, and therefore
dismissed the case.

(Cheers.) I am not one of those who wish to frighten
the country from its propriety—who would have us all
believe we are going
_to, be invaded by the French.
(Hear, hear.), I do not think the Emperor of the
French, with all his talent, so rash and inconsiderate

above time, and in three minutes after he entered, an°

But,' ladies and. gentlenian, when :we see: the large
navy which 014 Emperor is raisingis ,creating
totally inconsistent with the wants of the empire, it is
utterly impossible ',for us to stand idly by with our
mouths open and our hands in our breechei' pockets. I
do; therefore, most heartily rejoice. I can congratulate
the:town of Liverpool—l congratulate the parish of
Wallasey on, the, noble movement which has been so
happily and sucepsgfully begun. When t see atouud"

are by such en assembly as this, I think that Wallasey
