He was in great pain the whole of by

William Bagwell, a police constable, No. 328 K, stated
that he was making inquiries about the accident and saw
the blow given. The prisoner was about to strike another
blow and he prevented him. The prisoner then ran away,
and ho had some difficulty in overtaking him. The pri-
soner had recently come out of prison, after being incarce-
rated for throe months for assaulting a woman.
Mr Paget said he recollected the case very well. The
prisoner struck a female, whose situation was a very pre-
carious one. The prisoner was a Savage fellow, and
seemed to strike any rue on any pretence. He was hardly
doing right it not inflicting a sentence of• two months' im •
prisonment. Ho sentenced the prisoner to one month's
imprisonment and hard labour.

THE BANTRY MURDER.--CONFESSION OF THE
MURDERER.—The perpetrator of this murder has
confessed his guilt. It will be remembered that a man
named Daniel Cronin was exemined, and swore that he
knew nothing of the murder,

Great Fire in the Ci

;y—This Day.

This morning a very destructive fire broke out in the
premises of Messrs rapping, carpet warehousemen, nearly
opposite the Goldsmith's Hall, Gresham-street. The fire
engines were speedily in attendance, and the firemen did
their utmost, but the flames were now issuing from 40
windows, and soon caught the Haberdashers' Hall, in which
there are many valuable and ancient portraits. The fire
then spread to some warehouses in Wood-street. Two of
the men belonging to Mr Hodge's brigade were injured.
As the fire is now far from being extinguished, it is impos-
sible to give any estimate of the damage done.

MARLBOROUGH STREE C.

A FOOLISH FREAK.—Charles Bishop, a young man,
living in York street, Westminster, was charged before Mr
Tyrwhitt as follows :
Sergeant Franklin, 20 E, said that about 12 o'clock the
previous night he was on duty in Great Portland-street,
when he saw the prisoner, who was attired as a female,
and wearing a capacious crinoline, standing talking to a
young man and a female, A Life Guardsman passed by,
and the prisoner said " Good night—shall I come home
with you ?" and then kft his companions and walked some
distance with the soldier, and then returned to his com-
panions. Suspecting the prisoner was a man, although
dressed as a female, he (Lhe sergeant) was making his way
towards him when the prisoner and his companions started
off, and on his pursuing them the prisoner's crinoline fell
down and dragged along the ground, and he then took the
prisoner, who cut a sorry figure, into custody.
The prisoner said he did not think there was any harm
in what he had done.

The sergeant (amid some laughter) produced a gay-
looking bonnet, cloak, dress, and crinoline.
Mr Tyrwhitt—lf prisoner would behave in such an indis-
creet manner as he was proved to have dono ho must not
be surprised at being locked up.

had acted like a fool. He Would discharge the

WESTMINSTER.
CRUEL ROBBERY 33Y A SISTER.—Mary Wharton, a girl
smartly dressed with a hat and feather, was charged with
robbing her sister, who had afforded her a home, of every
article of wearing apparel she passessed.
Louisa Stetiens, a rough, hard .working countrywoman,
said that her husband was a bricktnaker, and they lived near
Maidstone, Kent. Prisoner came to her three weeks before
last Friday week when she robbed her and absconded.
They went out together into the fields that raorning to work,
but prisoner was soon missed, and, instead of continuing at
her labour, returned to her sister's cottage and stripped it.
When she returned home, she found she had left her no
clothing but what she stood upright in, and had gone off
by the 12 o'clock train to London.
Mr Selfe—How was she found ?
Prosocutrix—l wrote to my other sisters about her, letting
them know how she had treated me, and they sent to mo to
ten me where she was. When I got the information I
came to town yesterday morning and found her at my
brother's. She denied the robbery, but I directly saw a
hankerchief belonging to my husband which she had carried
off, and a' so a cloak that she had stolen of mine, and there
are other things that we have the tickets of.

Mr Soudamore, pawnbroker, Great Chapel street, pro-
duced a gown pledged with him by the prisoner.

A policeman said he had two tickets relating to other
property, but had not had time tg aCe about theta or trace
the other property.
air Solfe said he should remand the prisoner, to afford an
opportunity of completing the case.

WOOL.

Owing to the continued dearness of money the amount of
business doing in English wool is extremely limited, buyers
since our last report, having almost having almost entirely
restricted their operations to the supply of immediate wants.
Compared with the high prices lately current, the quota-
tions exhibit a fill of about Id;por lb. In colonial wool, by
private contract, a limited business is doing, and prices rule
somewhat easier. Last week's imports amounted to 655

there is identity of race and religion, begetting kind and
friendly sympathies, whereas in Ireland the relations be-
tween both classes are embarrassed by a legacy of political
and religious differences, for which neither can be made
responsible till they adopt them as their own ; and in Eng-
land, as you may see reported in the newspapers, local
usages in some places give a legal claim to fair compensa-
tion for improvements made by the tenant, and adding to
the letting value of the land, whereas in Ireland no such
claim is admitted. The Irish people have been often told
to rely on themselves. Well, a tenant, full of energy and
enterprise, and taste, does rely on himself, and having an
improvable farm, throws himself into the work of increas-
ing its value, and when the laborious task is accomplished
ho finds that his self-reliance has worked his self-destruc-
tion. The landlord, as a member of society, will share in
the increasing prosperity of the nation, and, from the very
nature of things, leases will expire, tenants will scatter,
and, sooner or later, the reversion, partial. or entire, of the
valuable improvement will fall to the owner in fro. Not
satisfied with these advantages, the landlords claim the
property not yet made, the property which the tenants are
to create, the property of which the creation is prevented
by an anticipative claim put forward beforehand. Thus the
tenant is discouraged, the land is unimproved, the im-
poverishment of tho country is perpetuated, and when any
unexpected visitation comes, ruin, crushing ruin, becomes
the lot of all. (Hear, hear.) The last difficulty is the
greatest of all. When. called together to discuss subjects of
national importance, Irishmen can feel deeply, speak elo-
quently, and readily adopt strong resolutions. But they
fail in that firm, manly, stern, and uncompromisng earnest-
ness of purpose, without which, in all difficult enterprises,
success can neither be merited nor achieved. Do 3ou be-
lieve that, to be prosperous, the country wants the millions.
of additional value that may be raised from the soil? Do
you believe that the tenant farmers, who, as a class, can do
the work, will undertake the labour and the toil which are
necessary for its completion without the prospective reward
of fair oompensation ? Do you believe that in the present
state of political parties in England, Irish constituencies
and Irish members can press with irresistible power the
settlement of this great question? (Ilear,.hear.) If you
do, then be in earnest. Oppose all who oppose you; sup-
port all who support you. Send to Parliament even twenty
members who, without menaces or declamation, will, by
their silent looks and determined countenances, make the
Minister of the day feel that they aro in earnest. Do this,
and success will be as certain as it will be deserved. (Hear,
and continued applause.)
Mr. E. SYNAN seconded the resolution.

MOROCCO.

A Tunis letter of the 20th says :—" The labour
of restoring the Bey's authority is being pursued in
those places where it had been temporarily shaken,
and the Government is taking steps to prevent a
recurrence of the late disorders. There now only
remains to reduce the detached cavalry of the west
and centre, who have made an attack on the camp
of the Kef, which is commanded by Sidi Roustam.
Those rebels, to the number of about 3,000, were
assembled by the partisan chief Aly•Ben-Ghede.
bourn, who, after having obtained the pardon of
the Bey, had not profited by it. He attempted
to surprise the camp of General Roustam, with
a view of obtaining possession of the cannons
which are the terror of the wandering Arabs.
General Roustam, whose 12 guns are served by
good artillerymen, allowed the enemy to advance,
and then dispersed them by a discharge of grape
from his two batteries. This fresh victory has added
another prestige to the authority of the Bey. His
Highness has now organised and despatched an
army of from 12,000 to about 15,000 'regular and
irregular troops, under the command of Sidi.Aly-
Bey, presumptive heir to the Tunisian throne.
From time immemorial the custom has been for the
heir to make an annual campaign of this kind
through the regency for the purpose of collecting
taxes and displaying to the tribes the imposing
strength of the public force. For the last two
years this custom had not been observed, and from
the omission the Arabs inferred that the Governs
ment had lost its power. The mission of Sidi-
Aly-Bey is to prove to them that they are mistaken,
and to restore the prestige of the Government. The
collection of the current taxes and the arrears will
contribute to re•establish the State finances, which
had been already relieved by considerable sums
sent from the province of Sahel. A sum of
5,000,000 piastres has been again received during
the last few days from that province."
