MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

BREAKING A MAN'S LEO.—Joseph Newby, a tin plate
worker, in the employ of Mr. Wilson, bath manufacturer,
of WaHour. street, Soho, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt
with violently assaulting and breaking the leg of an elderly
man in the same employ, named John Halliday.
John Dennis, a young man, said that on the previous
afternoon the prisoner and Halliday were baying some
words in front of the bar at the public-house,
Wardour-street. The prisoner struck Halliday, then a fight
ensued. He (witness) parted them, and directly after the
prisoner seized Halliday and threw him, and then threw
himself on the top of Halliday. On assistance going to
Halliday it was found that his head was badly cut by com-
ing in contact with a cask, and that one of his legs was
broken. Subsequently he (witness) gave the prisoner in
charge, and Halliday was conveyed to the Middlesex
Hospital, where he still remained.
The prisoner asked the witness whether Halliday did not
strike him first.
Dennis said the prisoner struck the first blow.
A certificate from the Middlesex Hospital, signed by Mr.
Pyle, the house surgeon, was handed to Mr. Tyrwhitt de-
scribing the injuries Halliday had received, and stating
that he would, be unable to attend for some time.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should remand the prisoner for a
woek, and he had no doubt he would have to do so from
week to week.

The prisoner asked that bail might be taken.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should certainly not take bail, and
the prisoner was remanded.
A PICKPOCKET AT TILE GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION.—
Alfred Edwards, a young man, was charged by Edwin (Jolt-
rupe, of the detective police, with attempting to pick pockets
at the Gallery of Illustration.
The prisoner cross-examined the officer in a style which
showed that he was far from uuacquainted with the prac-
tices of a police court.
He was remanded.

Fatal Result of a Fight at Birmugham

An occurrence of a peculiarly tragic character formed the
subject of a coroner's inquest at Birmingham on Saturday
evening last, A few days ago, a young man of the namet
of Thomas Stevenson, an only sou of highly respectable
parents residing at Market Harborough, Leicestershire, was
carried in a helpless state to his lodgings in Birmingham.
He was there attended by a girl of the name of Sarah Mor-
ton, with whom he was keeping proper company with a
view to making her his wife, and she anxiously inquired
the cause of his bruised and disabled state. Ho said that
ho had fallen, and denied that he had been fighting or tha
any one had been ill-using him. A surgeon was called in,
and the suffering man was found to be in such a dangerous
state that his removal to the general hospital was con-
sidered necessary. His mother was then sent for, and to
her broken-hearted inquiries he made the same answer
as to his sweetheart. Neither she nor the medical staff
at the hospital believed ho was telling the whole of
the truth, as his condition indicated considerable per-
sonal violence ; but he repeated his statement with such
apparently truthful emphasis that the matter was allowed
to pass without any further question. He gradually became
worse, and expired at the end of three days in the presence
of his sweetheart, who was in constant attendance. A post
mortem examination was then made by Mr. Bracey, house
surgeon, and revealed a considerable laceration of the blad-
der, penetrating all the coats of the organ ; and his opinion
was that death had resulted from this injury causing peri-
tonitis, and that the injury itself was caused by a heavy
blow or fall, The case was then investigated, end evidence
was procured that the deceased had received his injuries
during a fight with a man of the name of Shakespeare, with
whom ho quarrelled in a publichouso at Oldbury, near Bir-
mingham, in reference to a sixpenny bet. The fight took
place out of door ; and during its progress both combatants
fell over the embankment of a brook and were immersed in
the water. The deceased fell violently on some bricks at
the bottom of the stream. The men renewed the fight after
cowing out of the water, and were afterwards separated.
The deceased was taken charge of by a neighbour, and
stripped of his wet cicthes and put to bed, but next morning
he was in such a suffering state that ho was taken in a cab
to his lodgings in Birmingham.
The jury found that the deceased had died of a casualty
occurring during a fight, and exempted the other man from
all imputation. The deceased was by a trade a striker, and
was employed in extensive carriage works at Oldbury.

ON CHLORATE OP POTASSA AND ITS USE IN OXYDISINO

THE BLOOD.
DR. S. P. SARGEANT, M.R.C.S., and L.S.A.
_ll5 (1836,, will shortly repeat his Lecture on this subject
at St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, and will satisfactorily prove
that Chlorate of Potassa, (as prepared by passing chlorine
through a mixture of quick-lime and water, and subsequently
boiling a long, time with Chloride of Potassium) is a most
active remedy for oxydising the blood, and restoring vitality
to the low, vitiated state of the nervous system, and is there-
fore calculated to supersede the use of iron, mercury, quinine,
and sarsaparilla.-56, Gower-street, Bedford-square, London.

AGGRAVATED AND DISGRACEFUL ASSAULT ON A
LADY.—Abney Hopton, a well-dressed young man, who
called himself a clerk in the West India Dock, was brought
before Mr. Paget, charged with committing a violent
assault on Mrs. Ann Hill.
The complainant, whose face was much injured, and who
had lost a considerable quantity of blood, said she was
living at No. 21, East-street, Mile-end-road. Last night,
at 8 o'clock, she was in company with two females, near the
Horn of Plenty public-house, in the Globe road, Mile-end,
waiting for a lady friend residing in Carlton-square, when
the prisoner, who was inebriated, came rushing along the
pavement and struck her on the shoulder with an umbrella.
She told him he had better go home, and not interfere with
respectable people. He immediately turned round and
struck her a violent blow on the face. She was stunned
for a few seconds, and when she recovered, saw the pri-
soner running away pursued by her friends and a number
of boys. The prisoner was stopped and given into custody.
She bled copiously from the nose, and had been in con-
siderable pain ever since.
Mr. Paget looked at the complainant's face and saw it
was injured.
Sarah Smith and Clara Shinting corroborated the evi-
dence of Mrs. Hill in every particular.
The prisoner, in a very abject manner, said he was very
sorry for what he had done. He had been in the Old
Globe public-house and lost a sovereign there.
Mr. Paget—That is no justification for committing an
assault upon a woman. This is a very serious offence in-
deed. Here is a respectable woman very savagely assaulted.
You are a clerk in the West India dock.

Mr. Master, a dock constable, said the prisoner was an
extra labourer in the dock.

The prisoner—l do clerk's duty.
Mr. Paget—l don't care whether you are a clerk or not.
Your conduct is not to be tolerated for an instant. This
is a most disgraceful case indeed. You have struck a
woman in the public street, and the public must be protected
against such outrages as these. I sentence you to three
months' imprisonment and hard labour.

INDIAN TRAMWAY.

The report of the directors states that there can be but one
feeling, of regret, that the exertions of the directors, the
cooperation of the shareholders, and the support of the local
governments of India, which, if uninterrupted, would have
secured the early completion of a light railway in each of the
presidencies, should have been neutralised by the recent
determination of the Secretary of State, in opposition to the
earnest recommendation of the local authorities, that the
varying characteristics of the several lines in India should
be ignored, that one uniform rule should be applied to all,
and that the precise terms accorded to the Branch Railway
Company should not be departed from under any circum.
stances. The shareholders, under the advicA of the board,
at once declined to undertake any new work until the result
of the Arconum line in Madras should furnish authentic
data for their guidance, and decided to limit the capital o
the company to £100.,000, and their operations to this single
line. The board have therefore directed their endeavours to
the early completion and substantial construction of the line,
connecting Arconum on the Madras Railway with Conje-
veram, about 17 miles, and expect its opening on an early
date. The sanction to commence was only obtained by
the chairman in January last, and engines were running
on a portion of the lineainlAugust. The bridges for the
rivers Cortilear and Pulloor were despatched in June, dnd
the masonry will be ready by the time they arrive. The cost
of these bridges will be reimbursed by the Madras Govern-
ment, who, with their officers, have afforded every facility
and rendered all the assistance in their power to promote
the undertaking. The report of the engineers, Sir C. Fox
and Mr G. Berkley, states that the earthworks are com-
pleted for a length of 12 miles from Arconum junction, and
the permanent way laid for a length of six miles, upon which
two of the company's locomotives are daily engaged in
ballasting. A temporary staging has been erected across the
Cortilear river, pending the completion of the permanent
bridge. Granite of excellent quality is being used for this
and other works, which will be of a thoroughly substantial
character. The works at the Arconum junction station and
at Pulloor are also in a forward state. bOO coolies are em-
ployed upon the line. From a statement of the probable
traffic on festival days, it was thought advisable to recom-
mend that a fourth locomotive and some ironworks for
waggons available for third-class passengers should be sent
out as soon as possible. The capital account to the 30th of
September shows that £57,483 had been received and
£47,526 expended, leaving a balance of £9,957.

FURTHER AND LATEST PARTICULARS.

On Saturday morning Mr Superintendent Howie, of the
K division, and the other officers engaged in the case made
further inquiry, and have discovered the name of the pawn-
broker who received the deceased's clothes after the murder,
and the garments will be produced at the adjourned inquest
on Thursday evening next.
A number of constables proceeded to the reed field and
made further search, but uothirg additional could be found.
Sergeant Clarke, of the detective force, when he found the
chopper which was produced before the Ilford magistrates,
discovered that a new handle had been recently placed in
the iron part, and the wooden handle found in the teed field
by Sergeant Bridgland, 65 K, on Thursday, was the original
one, which has since been identified by Mrs Warren, the
landlady. The police have also ascertained the place where
the red paint was purchased, and from information given
to the officers late on Saturday evening, evidence will be
adduced to show that the prisoner pledged the missing
clothes of the deceased, and some articles of jewellery
belonging to the deceased• Tho key belonging to the de-
ceased's boxes has been discovered by Sergeant Clarke, and
the duplicates have likewise been found.
Yesterday (Sunday) morning several thousand persons
visited the scene of the murder, and a considerable number
proceed from the metropolis in carts and other vehicles to
the river side, where the polioo woro engaged in soarching
the mud and hank of the Thames at low water. The traffic
through the field was so great yesterday that the lofty reeds
were trodden down and hundreds carried away by the per-
sons visiting the place.
A great number of persons visited the Bell and Anchor
Tavern yesterday and made application to see the body of
the murdered man, but Mr Joyce, the landlord, refused, as
the police had given strict orders for the body to be kept
locked up. After the completion of the post-mortem exa-
mination on Friday evening the stomach and intestines
were sealed up for analysis by order of the coroner (Mr C.
C. Lewis). The clothes worn by the deceased and the
accused (Kohl) have been forwarded to Dr Letheby, the
profs-sor of chemistry of the London Hospital, who has been
instructed to analyse the marks and stains.
At the conclusion of the examination of the prisoner on
Saturday afternoon, at the Sessions-house, Ilford, the pri-
soner asked permission to see his wife, which was granted
by the chairman o; the bench of magistrates. He was re-
moved from the dock by Inspector Nightingale into one of
the rooms of the gaol, where his wife was introduced to
him. The meeting was a very brief on©, and, after a few
minutes' conversation, he shook hands and parted with
her in tears. It was stated that the prisoner desired several
witnesses to be summoned by the police for the defence, and
be gave instructions for the engagement of a solicitor.
On Saturday morning several artists were engaged in
making sketches of the road, field, and adjacent parts by
the aide of the Thames.

But moderate supplies of English 'grain were received
up to cur Ma•ket last week. The imports from abroad
amounted to 21,855 quarters of wheat, 36,793 oats, 20 bean,

was sold at late rates. Inferior and damp parcels, how-
ever, changed hands at a reduction of is per qr, or were left
unsold at the close of business.

The market was moderately supplied with barley. Good
and fine malting qualities were in request, at extreme rates.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at previous

quotations.
There was a good supply of foreign wheat on the stands
The trade, generally speaking, was quiet, yet no quotable
change took place in prices from Monday last;
The supply of oats was extensive, but the trade was dull.

Smithfield Club Cattle Show for 1864.

On Saturday the wholelof the materials and fittings which
occupied the grand area of the Agricultural Hall, at Isling-
ton, during the late Industrial Exhibition, wero removed,
and a large number of workmen were employed in the pre.
parations necessary to render the.building available for the
purposes of the ensuing Christmas Cattle Show of the
Smithfield Club.

It has been already stated that the probable effect of the
large increase made by the club in the number and amount
of the prizes to be awarded would be to produce a larger
number of entries than on previous occasions, and the re-
turns of such entries proved this to be the case, notwith-
standing the fact that the great provincial cattle shows of
Darlington and Liverpool take place concurrently with that
of the Smithfield this year, viz., the 6th, 7th, Bth, and 9th
December. The number of entries this year in the cattle
classes are 261 as against 243 last year. For sheep entries
there are 112 pens of three and 76 single specimens, as against
89 pens of three, and 65 single pens, in 1863. For pigs the
entries are 51 peas of three, and 25 single pens, against ar
pens of three, and 19 single specimens of porkers last
year; the gross being 545 this year of pens and animals
against 453 last year. The gross number of animals entered
for this year are—Beasts 281, sheep 412, pigs 178—total
871. At the show of 1863 the number of beasts was 243,
sheep 332, pigs, 130—total 705, being a gross increase this
year of 166 animals as compared with last year's show.
Amongst the specimens in the sheep classes there are some
entries made of the particular descriptions of cross breeds so
much lauded by Mr Disraeli at the late Buckinghamshire
agricultural dinner, and which has led to so much contro-
versy among breeders and others, The whole of the spaces
in the New Arcade leading to Islington-green have been
disposed of, and will be chiefly occupied by carriage manu-
facturers sad patent harness makers, affording a very at-
tractive and novel feature.

TILE PItUqDENTIAL ELECTION IN AMERICA.—
There is nut much doubt that we shall have news
of the result of the presidential election in America to-
morrow or on Wednesday. The election took place en
the Sth inst. Two steamers loft New York on the sth inst.,
viz , the City of Glasgow for Queenstown, and the New
York for Southampton. Tho captain of the City of G'as-
gow had orders to call off Cape Race and remain there a
short time, if necessary, in order to obtain a telegram of
the result of the election, and there is not much doubt that
the commander of the Now York would do the same; Cope
Race is about 1,000 miles from New York, or one-third the
distance of the voyage from the latter port to England.
Both the above-named steamers would pass Cape Raco
about the 9th inst.—the day on which the result of the pre -
sidential election was to be declared.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.---This day.

MARLBOROUGH- STREET.
A BOY CHARGED WITH ROBBING HIS FATTIER' A
SAD CASE.—Goorge Savage, a boy, was charged before Mr
Knox with robbing his father.
Michael Savage, a master chimney sweep, of No, 10,
Hanover-place, Bond-street, said he (he prisoner) was his
son. Ou Saturday afternoon while be (prosecutor) was out,
the l ri3oner left home, and some time after £1 2s 9d was
missed from a drawer, the money being safe a few hours
before. About 8 o'clock in the evening he went to the
Marylobone Theatre, and in the gallery found the prisoner.
He then gave him into custody, when he handed the set,
geant on duty in the theatre 19s, and also a scarf, at the
same time stating that he had taken the money from the
drawer and bought the scarf out of it.
In answer to Mr Knox, the prosecutor said he had five
younger children than the prisoner, and that about two
months ago the prisoner went away with £2, and had
threatened his mother, with a knife in his hand, if she told
him. The boy had fallen into very bad habits for about
two years past.
Sergeant Roots, 7 D, having given evidence as to his
taking the boy into custody in the gallery of the Maryle-
bone Theatre,
Mr Knox sail the best thing he could do would be to
take the boy off the streets and send him to school. He
should therefore send the prisoner to Feltham for three
years, and the prosecutor would have to pay 3s a week to-
wards his maintenance. _

.. -
The prosecutor said ho should be happy to do so.
STET ROBBEAY.—T wo lads named Wm. Reardon and
Charles Doughton, were brought before Mr. Knox charged
with stealh,g a watch hem the person of Mr Auguste
Battman, a Frenchman, residing at 2, Old Compton-street.
Sergeant Coathupe, of the detective department, Scotland,
yard, stated that on Saturday night t here was a large crowd
inOld Compton-street, in consequence of two boys fighting.
He saw the prisoners together, and Reardon pushed against
the prosecutor and took his watch. He lost the prisoners
in consequence of the crowd, but yesterday succeeded in
taking them into custody on Seven Dials.
M. Battman (through g. Albert the interpreter) deposed
that hearing a disturbance in front of his house he went
out to ascertain the cause, when his watch was taken from
him, but ho was not aware of it till the officer spoke to him.

Reardon pleaded guilty.
Sergeant Coathupe said Doughton born a good character,
and was at work up to Friday night. His master was pre-
sent and would take him back into his employ if he were
discharged.
Mr Knox said ho would discharge Doughton, who had
evidently got into bad company, at the same time advising
him to be cautious for the future. Reardon would be corns
mitted, but would be brought up again.
Sergeant Coathupe said there was a conviction against
Reardon which he should be able to prove on the next
occasion.

LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE AND GREAT

EASTERN JUNCTION.

Application is to be made next session for power to make
a line of railway to connect the Lancashire and Yorkshire
and Great Eastern systems. It is to commence at Long
Stanton, Cambridge, and terminate by a junction with the
Askerne branch of the Lancashire and Yorkshire. Branches
are also proposed with other railways at or near Somersham,
Ramsey, Peterborough, Bourn, Sleaford, Lincoln, &c. This
project, which will, no doubt, be stoutly opposed by the
Great Northern, is to be promoted at the joint expenses of
the Lancashire and kYorkshire and Great Eastern Com-

There has been more animation in the Tallow Market
during the past week, and prices are advancing owing to
the continuous demand. The impression is that there is
every prospect of very high rates ruling this season. No
more arrivals are expected from St. Petersburg, which, no
doubt, will give some effect to the firmness of the market.
The failure of the root crop, and the general dry season that
prevailed in June, July, and August, together with the
serious drought in South America, will also influence the
marke% In January next it is estimated that there will
not be in London a third of What is usually supplied for the
yearly demand. Tallc4V will therefore probably reach a
price not known since thv Russian war.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a large supply of foreign beasts and sheep on
offer in to-day's market, in very middling condition. Sales
progressed slowly, at drooping prices.
From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts fresh
up, this morning, were only moderate, both as to number
and quality. The arrivals from Scotland were very prime.
For all breeds, the demand ruled heavy, at a decline in the
quotations, compared with Monday last, of 2d per 81bs, and
a total clearance was not effected. The general top figure
for beef was 6s 4d per 81bs. There was a fair show of Irish
bullocks.

_________
The arrivals of beasts from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire,
and Northamptonshire, amounted to about 2,500 short
horns, crosses. ; from other parts of England, 800
various breeds ; from Scotland, 178 Scots and crosses; and,
from Ireland, 450 oxen.

With most breeds of sheep we were fairly supplied-
Prime Downs, half-breds, keg moved off steadily, at full
quotations. Otherwise, the mutton trade was heavy, at
2d per Blbs less money. The best old Downs were worth
bs 10d per 81bs.
Calves—the supply of which was moderate—were a slow
sale, at late rates—viz., from 4s to 5s per 81bs.
Prime small pigs ruled steady in price ; but, large hogs
were a dull inquiry, at previous quotations.

TAY BRIDGE AND DUNDEE UNION.

It is proposed to construct a high-level bridge across tho
estuary of the Tay, between the coasts of Fife and Forfar, a
little above the harbour of Dundee ; and by the construe..
tion of a line connecting the Fife end of the bridge Dundee
would be brought into direct communication with the North
British Railway at Ferry Port-en-Craig. The second p• r-
tion of the scheme would connect the high-level bridge with
the several existing railways in Dundee, and,provicie for a
general passenger station, with approaches from the cast,
west, and north of the town. By the above project the town
of Dundee would be placed upon a main line from England
to the north of Scotland, instead of being served by branches.
The direct railway communication north and south would
be completed by the construction of the projected high-
level bridge across the Forth, which, it appears, has the
support of the North British and Edinburgh and Glasgow
Railway Companies.
