THE S

CLERKENWELL.—A poor woman, who gave her
name Elizabeth Simms, and who had an infant in her
arinFrsOmaptphlieedwtoomManr.,sCsotrartieerafoernz it appeared
app
eared that her
husband had joined the Land Transport Corps, and
since he had left the country, now 12 weeks since, she
had received no money, and had consequently been in
the greatest distress, herself and child being in a starv-
ing state. Application bad been kindly made by Mr.
Morant, one of the ushers of the court, to the Secretary
of the Ceutral Association for the Relief of the Wives of
Soldiers and Sailors engaged in the War, but the appli-
cation was refused in consequence of the man being
neither a soldier nor a sailor. She now applied to the
magistrate for a little to enable her to make a respect-
able appearance, and to go home to her husband's rela-
tions, who resided at Stroudwater, in Gloucestershire,
and who were fully able to give her a home. If they re-
fused, her intention was to go into the workhouse. Her
wearing apparel was kept by a poor widow living in
Bermondsey for a trifle she owed her, but she had no
doubt that she would be enabled to obtain it.
Mr. Corrie said that he would grant her the money to
enable her to go home, when he trusted that her hus-
band's relations would do something for her and her
infant.

t The applicant thanked the magistrate and retired.
James Edward Smith, a private in the East Middlesex
Militia, was brought up in the custody of the police,
charged with violently assaulting Mr. Nathan Meyer,
licensed victualler, and proprietor of the Rising Sun
public-house, in the New-road, with assaulting the
police, and otherwise creating a riot in the street.
Mr. Nathan Meyer stated that he was the landlord of
the Rising Sun. He Said that the prisoner, in com-
pany with his sergeant, entered the house about eight
o'clock last evening, and was served with a pot of
ale in. the parlour. They conducted themselves very
well, and the sergeant went away. The prisoner
shortly afterwards became very outrageous, and inter-
fered with the business so much that witness fried
to get him out. He answered by stripping himself for
a fight, and challenged several customers for a "go
in." This not being attended to, ha was becmiing
more violent, when Mr. Meyer was obliged to call in the
aid of the police, and the prisoner was removed in cus-
tody.

Police-constable 368 S proved taking the prisoner into
custody, with the aid of other constables. When they
got into the street, the brave soldier very soon attracted
a crowd. As he was passing through Somerstown, he
called out that he had just returned from the Crimea,
where he had been "fighting glorious battles, and would
they permit a man to be taken away to a vile prison for
declaring that he had been spilling his blood for his
country." There were several hundred persons present,
and the mob attempted a rescue several times.
The prisoner, a loutish-looking man, who was recog-
nised as not having been long separated from the coster-
monger's barrow, said that he was in liquor, and he knew
nothing about it.

The magistrate said that his conduct had been very
bad indeed ; and, in order that he might prepare for the
Crimea, he should be fined 10s., or seven days' imprison-
ment, where it was hoped that a little bread and water
would be of service to him.
The prisoner was then removed.

GREEN WICH.—Johm Griffin, 20 years of age, a
costermonger, was brought before Mr. Seeker, charged
with stealing a ba,rrowful of fruit, value 305., from the
garden of Mr. Gale, an extensive market gardener, Blue
Anchor-road, Bermondsey.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was
observed passing down Blue Anchor-road at about 11
o'clock last night with an empty barrow, and at about
two in the morning he was again seen returning with the
barrow laden with beautiful fruit, consisting of Dutch
codling apples and jargonelle pears. There was in quan-
tity about 3 bushels. The constable, believing it was not
all right, questioned the prisoner, who said he bad bought
them. Not feeling satisfied, however, he took him to
the station ; and in consequence of complaints hitherto
made by Mr. Gale of having been repeatedly robbed, and
only, too, the night before, he went there, and found the
trees bore evidence of having been recently stripped, and
the marks of the barrow directly under them. The bar-
row, it appeared, had also been stolen, but the owner
was unwilling to appear.
The prisoner, on being asked what he hid to say to
the charge, said he had nothing to say.
The magistrate said it was a very aggravated case,
and he should therefore inflict the full penalty allowed
by law—namely, six months' imprisonment, with hard
labour.

• ROBBERY OF 2001. BY AN ITALIAN.
Benecletta Spinola, 24, an Italian, well dressed and
described as of Ugh education, was indicted for having
stolen the sum of 2001. sterling belonging to Ermene-
gildo Giuntini, in adsvelling-house.
Mr. Metcalfe was for the prosecution, Mr. Sleigh for
the prisondr. • •
The learned counsel, in opening the use, said his
client, the prosecutor, was a timber merchant, and had
carried on business, as such in Tuscany.. Having ()colt-
sion to come_to London; he went to Florence, and there
he became acquainted with the priSoner, who repre-
sented himself to be the Marquis gpinela, and they tra-
velled together to Paris, and thence to London. They
stayed at the Sabloniere hotel is Leicester-sqUare, and
one day,. the prosecutor, who had about .20,000 f, in his
possession, asked him to-get Some foreign notes chaoged
into English money. The prisoner brought him back a
sealed paCket, which he said contained English nio,,ev
equivalent to the amount of notes he had been de..ire4
to-excharge, which packet the prosecutor was abont- to
examine, when the prisoner made an exclamation
tantamount to, "Why, you don't doubt me, surefy,t_
upon which the prosecutor placed it in a leathern bag
without ascertaining the nature of its contents. About
the 3d of July the prosecutor and the prisoner %vent
down to Brighton, and -while there the prosecutor f!oti-
verted about, 5,000 f. into English money, and on their
return to town he placed the amount he received in ex-
chanve in the bag where lie bad deposited the packet,
and for security lie secreted the bag between the mattress
and the bed in hinstoom, at the Sabloniere. Heandthe
prisoner lived on an .equality and upon terms of confi-
dence and friendship, so much so that the prosecutor did
not hesitate to tell the prisoner where he had deposited
o
his bag of money. In the evening of the day n which
they,came up from trig,lifon they
went

rooms, but the prisoner 'did not the dancing,
which the prosecutor did. While he was so
the prisoner made. a pretext for leaving fora short
time.. He .went out, and did not return. When the
Prgaeoutor left he repaired straight to the Sabloniere,
and on' his bed he found' a .letter in Italian, written
by the .prisoner, to the effect that he had taken part
of,hia money without asking,'leave, to embark in a pro-
fitable apeeulation.in Scotland, that he need not fear, as
he should Soon.return from 'Edinburgh with double the
amount,- which.would. be at his service. The letter stated
that the writer had.thought it 'better:to take the money
without asking ;permission,
because he was quite sure
that even if 'he put hitriself 10 the trouble of asking, it
would be of! no, avail,. and that his friend would give a
decided refusal to any such request. Instead of proceed-

OFFICIAL DESPATCH.

(From a suppliMeibt to Tuesday's Gazette.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, AUG. 16.
Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch and
its Enclosures, of which the following are copies, ad-
dressed to his Lordship by General Simpson, command-
ing her Majesty's forces in the East :
Before
Sebastopol, Aug. 4.
My Lord,--I have the honour to inform your Lord-
ship that on the night of the 2d inst., between 10 and 11
o'clock, the enemy made a sortie in considerable force
by the Woronzoff-road. The strength of the enemy is
computed to be about 2,000. Their object was to de-
stroy a heavy iron chevaux do frize, made across the
Woronaoff road, between our right and left attacks, and
being further supported by heavy columns in rear to
take advantage of such circumstances as might present
themselves.

They came on with loud cheers and bugling, and were
received with great gallantry, by our advanced picquet,
under the command of Lieutenant R. E. Carr, of the
39th Regiment, who withdrew his men, firing at the
same time upon the enemy, to the main body, under the
command of Captain Leckie, 39th Regiment.
A heavy and well-directed fire was opened upon the
enemy by the party under Captain Leckie on the Wo-
ronzoff-road, as also by the guards of the trenches on
the right of the fourth parallel, under the command of
Captain Boyle, of the 89th Regiment, and Capt. Turner,
of the Ist Royals, which, in about ten minutes, caused
the enemy to retire from an attack which, if it had not
been so well met, might have been a serious affair.
The enemy left four men killed, and some wounded
were carried away. We had only one man slightly
wounded in this affair.

I have the honour to transmit the returns of casualties
from the 30th July to the 2d August.
I have the satisfaction of informing your lordship of
the return to this army of Captain Montagu, of the
Royal Engineers, from being a prisoner of war. He
expresses himself highly grateful for the kindness with
whioh he was treated by the Russians during his cap-
tivity.
It is with great regret that I have to communicate to
your lordship that Lieutenant-General ,Sir R. England,
G.C.8., has been compelled, upon the recommendation
of a Medical Board, to return to England. Sir R. Eng-
land is the last of the General Officers who left the
United Kingdom in command of a Division ; he has
remained at his post throughout the trying heats of Bul-
garia, and the seventies and hardships of the winter's
campaign in the Crimea ; and great credit is due to
this officer for the constancy and untiring zeal he has
exhibited in carrying out arduous and difficult duties
on all occasions.—l have &c.,
JAMES SIMPSON,
General Commanding.

The Lord Panmure, &c.

THE YEAR OF PLENTY.—Eighteen Hundred and
Fifty-five will be, entitled to golden remembrances in
our national-chronology, as the of year plenty. Never
were the labours of the husbandman rewarded with
such abundant crops, and; coming after a season, if
not of famine, at least of pinching prices, the rich
abundance of our fields, orchards, and gardens, and
the prevailing healthiness of the country over its
vast extent, afford us sufficient cause for gratitude and
joyous feelings. From all parts of the country comes
the same unvarying and cheering cry of abundance.
There never was;such a golden harvest before. All our
great staples yield more than an average harvest, and
the lesser crops, the fruit, and small vegetables, which
are not taken into the account of commercial economists.
We have accumulated a great heap of harvest statistics
during the past week, some of them in the shape of pri-
vate letters from various parts of the country, and some
of them extracts from our contemporaries' reports—in-.1
tending to make a synopsis of them, but they are ton
numerous, and their unvarying tenour deprives them of
interest. They all tell the same story of glorious weather,
abdndant harvest, brilliant prospects, and rejoicing far-
mers. And, on the back of these comforting reports the
intelligence from Europe of abundant crops is most en-
couraging. The, coming year must inevitably be one of
cheap breadstuffs, and consequently cheap living ; but
there is no danger of the farmer not being abundantly
rewarded for his labours. Prices must rule much lower
than they have done for the past two years, but they
will be high enough to afford a remunerative profit to,
the agriculturist,:--Nets York
