CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

THE CASE OF STRAHAN, PAUL, AND CO.
The Attorney-General and Mr. Bodkin appeared for
the Crown ; Sir F. Thesiger for Sir John Paul and Mr.
Strahan ; and ➢Tr. E. James, Q.C., and Mr. Parry for
Mr. Bates.

Shortly after the learned judges took their seats on
the bench an application was made by the counsel for the
prisoners, to postpone the trial till next assizes.

After a short discussion this course was agreed to.
The learned counsel asked whether the parties would
be required to enter into fresh recognizances.

Mr. Justice Crowder said of course, as they had sur-
rendered, the recognizances must be renewed.

The defendants and their sureties then entered into
recognizances in the original amount, namely, each in
the RUM of 10,0001., with two sureties in 5,000/. eacb,
and they then left the Court.

NEW COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Crowder.)

Tames Barrington, 25, William Collins, 28, Cornelius
Sheppard, 31, George Dixon, 37, Henry Kemmislt, 24,
William Ratcliffe, 20, Thomas Henry, 29, excavators,
and Ann Maria Pooley, 27, spinster, were indicted for
riot, and assaulting two officers of the police, named
Cannon and Willis.

The case, which will last the entire day, arose out of
a drunken riot committed by a large gang of navvies,
who, being about to embark to the Crimea, were, whilst
awaiting their final order, located at Penge Common.

THIRD COURT.
(Before Russell Gurney, Esq., Q.C.)

John Hackett and Robert Hackett, brothers of the well
known Hackett the burglar and prison breaker, who
recently suffered death in New York, were indicted for
stealing a box of drugs belonging to John Hammond.
Mr. Sleigh prosecuted, and Mr. Robinson defended.
It appeared that upon the night of the 17th of
August, as a carrier, named Pexley, was driving along
the Brompton-road, a cabman saw the prisoner, John
Hackett, driving a small cart close in the rear of the
carrier's cart, and saw the prisoner Robert, and another
man who has escaped, take a box containing the drugs
from the tail board of the cart and make towards the
vehicle drawn by the prisoner-John, but being alarmed
the box fell from the cart which John drove away, and
the others, after a smart chase, managed to get away.
At a later hour the same night the same party were seen
in Kennington-lane trying to steal a bale of goods from
the back of a carrier's cart, and John Hackett was then
taken in charge, but not until the officers Clifford and
Lorn were sadly ill-used by the prisoners, one of whom
used a life-preserver upon the head of Clifford. John
Hackett was then apprehended, Robert and the other
man getting away ; but a few days after the constables
saw the prisoner Robert talking to a woman near the
Queen's Bench Prison, and they then took him into
custody.

The jury found them guilty.
The prisoner, John Hackett, was shown to be a well-
known burglar, and a ticket-of•leave man.

The prisoner John was sentenced to six years' petal
servitude, and the other to three months and hard
labour.

STATE OF TRADE.

( From lice 211auchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, Sept. 18.—The circumstances which
of late restricted the operations of buyers in this mar-
ket are in no material degree altered since tour last re-
port. We think there are indications that the appre-
hensions of deficiency in our crops aro likely to prove
exaggerated. But, on the other hand, the continued
favourable advices which we receive of the American
cotton crop, however much to be welcomed, certainly
tend to cherish the feeling of caution among the buyers
of yarns and goods. At the same time we have advices
by the overland mail which are not calculated to improve
the India branches of our market, more especially as the
mills at Blackburn have now universally resumed work
ing six days per week. At Calcutta there had indeed
been extensive sales of piece goods, at slightly advanced
prices, the high exchange remaining unaltered ; but this
was followed by a marked check to business, through the
reported decline at Manchester. From Bombay also we
learn that the same cause, together with the absence of
needful rains, bad arrested the tendency to a revival of
business in imports, and caused goods generally to re-
cede in value, while the rate of exchange had also given
way a little, say one per cent. We have consequently
to report the continued inaction of nearly all classes cf
buyers. Their disposition to be quiet seems indeed to
be increased ; and this is the case both in yarns and
goods, occasioning more decidedly than before, a restric-
tion of purchases in each department to the mere assort.
meat of necessary supplies.
Under these ciroumstances the transactions of the day
are altogether inconsiderable ; and the bias of prices is
somewhat against spinners and manufacturers. Those
parties whose contracts are not run out may be stated to
be still firm in maintaining their quotations ; and this is
the case to a fair extent. But where orders are finished,
or on the point of being finished, there is less of steadi-
ness than there was a few days ago ' • and this is the case
with a sufficient number of
producers
give the pur-
chaser a practical advantage of about( t
I.oper lb. in yarns
at large, and of 1.12 d. per piece in rm:k inpds of cloth, as
compared ;with what was
practicable this day week.
The middle numbers of cop twist and pincops are more
affected than most spinnings.

TIIIE PROPOSED CAMP AT STlRLlNG.—Official notice
has been received by Mr. Dewar, of King's-park farm,
that it is not the intention of Government to establish
a camp at Stirling.
The friends of Lieut. Palmer, 62d Regiment, reported
in the list of the 11th as missing, have been informed
that he is a prisoner, but quite well.
MADAME TUSSAUD'S EXHIBITION. The Messrs
Tussaud constantly exhibit the most praiseworthy en
deavours to cater for public instruction and amusement,
and have produced a group of the most interesting cha-
racter. This group now contains most of the leading
characters—sovereigns, statesmen, and military and naval
heroes of the present war—all forming a splendid group.
The latest addition to this highly interesting collection of
portraits is the Dowager Empreos of Russia, who, it is
rumoured, still occupies a prominent part in the counsele
of the Russian Cabinet. Her Majesty is represented in
a magnificent robo of black velvet, ornamented with
pearls and diamonds. We understand many .novelties
are in progress, and will soon be ready for public inspec-
tion.

FRIGHTFUL OCOURRENCE.—The most intense excite-
ment was occasioned on Monday in the neighbourhood
of Crutched-friars, in consequence of a frightful occur-
rence having taken place at the East India Company's
warehouses, Hart-street. It appears that a man named
James Dixon, in the comp any's employment, was about
painting some stonework at the top of the warehouse,
70 feet high, when he was seized with a fit, the board
on which he was sitting broke, and the unfortunate man
was suspended in the air by his leg, which get entangled
with the framework. He remained in this frightful po-
sition for the space of 25 minutes, the blood rushing
out of his nose and ears. An alarm was immediately
raised, and bundles of straw and sheeting were placed
beneath to catch him, should he fall. The Royal fire-
escapes were sent for to rescue him from his perilous
situation, but were found to be too short. Hundreds of
persons ran in all directions to witness the scene, and
the thoroughfare was completely blocked up, and large
bodies of police were sent for to keep the crowd back.
At last a captain of a vessel passing asked for a rope,
ascended the top of the building, made a running noose
knot, let it down the poor fellow's arm, and, amid the
breathless anxiety of thousands, pulled him up in a state
of insensibility. He was conveyed to St. Thomas's
Hospital, where every assistance was rendered, but ho
now remains in a roost precarious state.

Upon the motion of Mr. H. L. TAIIOR the Committee
of General Purposes were ordered to look at the exten-
sive premises now being pulled down in Pancras-lanc,
and to consider the expediency of setting them back.

Mn. ROEBUCK .3.T LEEDS.—Mr. Roebuck is at present
Pnjourning in Leeds, and is the guest of Peter Fairburn,
Epl., at Wood ley.-house. The hon. 'gentleman visited
the Commercial Xews-room on Satarday afternoon; and
his presence being observed, the Rev. W. Sinclair took
the opportunity (prefaced by a few judicious remarks) of
proposing a vote of thanks to the hon. member for his
patriotic services in. moving for, and the firmness awl
ability with which Le conducted, the inquiry into the
state of the army before Sebastopol before a committee
of the House of Conamons during the last session of Par-
liament. Mr, Aid. Kelsall seconded_ the proposition,
which was carried amidst much cheering. Air., Roe-
buck acknowledged the vote of thanks in a brief speech,
and assured the gentlornen who bad done him the honour
to thank him for his: services, that the good of the brave.,
army who are fighti m; our battles, and the weal of the.
. country were the Ltuiding motives of his conduct,—
Leeds Mercury.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.—Hop-picking is now general in all
the districts of Kent, Surrey, and Sussex. In the plan-
tations around Maidstone they come down exceedingly
well, though being small in size they require much
picking, and are not so profitable as in ordinary years to
the pickers, whose operations have also been retarded by
the wet and unsettled weather. The quality of the
hops is represented to be not so good as had been
anticipated, the long continuance of drought having
caused large quantities to be affected by fire blast, for
which the recant rains came too late. The quantity,
however, will be great, fully equalling the expecta-
tions of moderate growers, if not the exaggerated esti-
mates of more sanguine men, and certainly considerably
larger than for some years past. The avera'L,o yield in
some districts is calculated to be not less than 17 cwt.
per acre. In the Worcester plantations picking com-
menced last week, but we have no estimate of the pro-
bable quantity or quay of the crop.—South-Eastern
Gazette.
