THE PAUPERS FROiTI ST. MARTIN'S—
DISTURBANCES on BOARD the CALCUTTA.
PLYMOUTH, SEPT. 29.—The Calcutta, 700 tons,
belonging to Messrs. Fox, Sons, and Co., of Ply-
mouth, which left London last week, with a number
of paupers from the parish of St. Martin for Australia,
arrived in the Sound on Friday last; and on Monday
one of the paupers, named !Adam Young, made a
complaint to the Plymouth bench of magistrates
against the master of the ship.
Mr. Phillips (the magistrate's clerk) asked Young
if he were the same man who was given into custody
by the captain on Saturday ?
Young said he was the same man; he was given
into custody for something be knew nothing of. He
merely went to the captain and asked his permission to
go ashore, on which he said that as soon as he got on
shore he would have him apprehended by the police.
He then inquired of the captain his reasons for saying
so; the reply to which was, " that if he stood there
aggravating him he should get a brace of pistols and
settle him at once."

Mr. Phillips asked whether there was any person
belonging to the ship present?
Mr. Eleslop rose and said, the applicants and a
number of other paupers were in this ship on their
way to Australia. He wg-4 an officer employed by
the board of guardians of St. Martin's, who had sent
out these paupers, and his duty ended when the ship
sailed for her destination. He knew nothing of the
disagreements which had take❑ place between the
captain and the paupers, but he believed there were
warrants issued for the apprehension of the applicant's
brother, who was present, and another brother, who
was on board.

Mr. Phillips desired that one of the firm of Fox,
Sons, and Co. should be sent for, these gentlemen
being the owners of the vessel.

The case was ordered to stand adjourned for a few
minutes until the arrival of the agents ; but before a
quarter of an hour had elapsed, Mr. Allen, the master,
came in with two constables from Saltash, and they
took Adam Young into custody.
The Mayor then requested the captain to stand
forward, and he, i❑ answer to his Worship, said that
Adam Young had been guilty of gross mutinous con-
duct on board the ship, and that his two brothers,
Charles and Henry, had been guilty of mutinous con-
duct in a secondary degree. The disturbances they
had created amongst the passengers was of a most
disgraceful description, and he was really afraid of
his life.

Henry Young said the Captain inquired on Satur•
day, " Where are the Youngs ?" and when he came up
it him, he asked him permission to go ashore. The
captain replied, that as soon as he got on shore he
should give him into custody.
The Captain said his charge against the men was
mutiny, by threatening to throw him overboard and
set the ship on fire.
Mr. Phillips said the bench could have dealt with
the whole of the charges, but inasmuch as two of the
cases were to be heard at Saltash, he thought they
had better be all heard there.
The Captain said that would be the best course to
pursue. He thought it right, however, to tell their
Worships that when he called these men aft, they said
" they would be if they would allow of their
people (the paupers) to go aft to hear any - Mu-
tiny Act read."
Henry Young said the whole of the disturbance
had arisen in consequence of one of the ship's com-
pany breaking into the cargo, making one of the
single women drunk, &c. He (the captain), on hear-
ing it, brought up a brace of pistols before the young
woman, and threatened to blow out the brains of the
first person who interfered with him.
The Mayor recommended the parties to proceed to
Saltash, and have the case decided, on which they
left the court.

SALTASH PETTY SESSIONS—TUESDAY.
(Before Mr. W. RUNDLE.)
Charles, Adam, and Henry Young, the three emi-
grants removed from Plymouth on a charge of mutiny,
on board the ship Calcutta, were brought up on war-
rants issued for their apprehension, to show cause
why they should not be bound in recognizances to
keep the peace towards Mr. Allen, the master.
Mr. Edmonds appeared for the captain.
It appeared that on the passage down the defendants
had refused to wash decks, stating that they had not
come on board to work their passages out to Australia.
Subsequently, when they were in a berth by them-
selves, one of them said that he would throw the cap-
tain overboard and then set fire to the ship. Adam
Young joined in the conversation, but Charles raid
nothing; he was, however, regarded as an aider and
abettor. These things were made known to the cap-
tain, who on his arrivel here took the necessary steps
to bring the parties to justice. The private passengers
also complained of their insolent conduct to them.
In defence, the defendants called some of the pas-
sengers who were in the hall, and when they were
examined as to the defendants' characters on board,
some of them attributed the origin of the disturbance
to Adam, others to Henry, and some to Charles.
The Chaplain of the ship said they were all per-
sonally indebted to the captain for the kindness he
had displayed to them on the passage down Channel,
and he expressed his regret that anything so unplea-
sant should have taken place.
The BENCH said it was necessary that some security
should be given the captain for the good behaviour of
the defendants on their passage; and the judgment
was that they should each be bound in their own re-
cognizances of 201., and find two responsiblele sure-
ties in 301. each for that purpose.
The defendants, of course, were unable to get
these, and they were ordered to be imprisoned for
seven days.
Upon this decision being pronounced "the three
Mrs. Youngs " wept and screamed bitterly. Charles
Young, toe, joined in the geceral harmony, and
begged the captain's forgiveness for his misconduct.
After some hesitation and some consultation, the
captain said that inasmuch as Charles had not ren-
dered hinv,elf personally obnoxious to him he should
look over the matter. This favoured defendant
thanked him for the kindness be bad shown him, and
then promised that he would not be guilty of any
further misconduct on the passage.
The captain stated that when the men were put on
board the ship the guard' -ns of the p -rich to which
they belonged said they were all brought up in the
fear of God ; but he assured the Bench that when
they got to sea they made use of the most vulger and
abominable language. He also added that one
of the guardians came down from London, whose
expenses were no doubt paid by the parish, and that
gentleman, directly be beard of their misconduct,
went back again, and did not offer any security for
them.
The two defendants, committed to Bodmin gaol,
were then removed.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

John Andrews, a young man recently in the em-
ploy of Mr. John Winkles, a tradesman, of High-
street, Southwark, was placed at the bar before Mr.

ae s robbery, bheerry
ploy, and lived in the house with the family, and that
on the night of the 13th of that month the prisoner
got up when they were all asleep, and entered the
room where she and her husband were in bed. There
was a purse containing V. 15s. on the dressing-room
table, and in her husband's trousers pocket, which
were on a chair by the bedside, there were seven
sovereigns and fifteen shillings. The following morn-
ing she and her husband were awoke by their son
coming into the room for some change, and when
desired to take what he required out of the purse on
the table, it was then discovered that it was gone, es
well as the bag containing the sovereigns and silver
from her husband's trousers pocket. Although the
prisoner retired to bed at the same hour the family
did on the night in question, yet when he was sought
after on the discovery of the robbery it was found that
he had absconded, leaving the street-door ajar, so as
not to disturb any of the inmates, and these circum-
stances gave rise to the suspicion that he must have
been the thief; but he had managed to keep out of
the way ever since July, and nothing was heard of
him until he was found by the policeman asleep in the
omnibus on the preceding night, as above described.
The prisoner, who said nothing in answer to the
charge, was committed, but will be brought up again
in order to have the depositions completed.
LAMBETH.
R. Perry, who has been in custody since Saturday
week on a charge of having caused the death of his
wife Jane, by violence, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Elliott for final examination.
The coroner's jury who had investigated the case

' returned a verdict to the effect that the deceased had
died from accidental concussion of the brain from a
fall while in a state of intoxication ; but Mr. Elliott,
feeling that the evidence established a clear case of
manslaughter against the accused, examined the wit-
nesses with considerable minuteness.
The first witness called was George Mitchell, a
tailor, residing at 22, Broad-street, Lambeth, who in
his evidence on a former day said that between the
hours of twelve and one o'clock on the night of Sa-
turday the 18th instant, he heard the prisoner and
the deceased have some words in their room, which
was just over that which witness and his wifa occu-
pied, and immediately after heard a heavy fall on the
floor. A perfect silence continued for about ten
minutes or a quarter of an hour, and then he heard
the prisoner put on his shoes and come down stairs.
On reaching the first landing, and just opposite his
(witness's) room door, he heard the prisoner say,
" Who is here," or " who the devil's here," and then
return up stairs. He came back to the landing with
a light, and witness then heard him say, " Oh, its
you is it; drunk as usual." The priso ?,r then knocked
at the door, and asked himy he was awake, and on
answering him in the affirmative, he said, "My old
woman doesn't seem to have any strength in her
limbs." Witness then got up and assisted the deceased
up stairs and placed her on the bed, when they found
she was 'lead.

Mr. ELLIOTT—What did the fall on the floor ap-
pear to you like ? Witness—Like a person falling
on the floor, and I had no doubt that the deceased it
was that fell.

Mr. ELLIOTT—Had the deceased fallen down stairs
to the landing where she was found, do you think
you must have heard her ? Witness—Certainly I
should your Worship.
Mr. ELLIOTT—Had you heard any person come
down stairs from the time of the fall until you were
called by the prisoner but the prisoner himself ?
Witness—l did not, Sir.

Mr. ELLIOTT—Had any other person come down,
do you think you must have beard them ? Witness
—Certainly.
Margaret Mitchell, the wife of the last witness
said that on the night in question, while in bed with
her husband, she heard the deceased, who was intoxi-
cated at the time, and the prisoner abuse each other,
and making use of strong and vile language to one
another. She particularly heard the deceased call the
prisoner a " b—y thief" several times, and from
their voices the witness judged that the prisoner was
in bed at the time, and the deceased sitting at the
fire. She next heard a noise as if some one was
going across the room, and presently something fell
heavily on the floor. She next heard deceased in a
faint voice say, " Oh, Dick, I shan't be your nurse."
A dead silence followed, and a feeling passed over her
mind at the time that something serious had hap-
pened, and she expressed a hope to her husband that
the prisoner had not done the deceased any mischief.
The remaining part of the witness's testimony was:a
mere corroboration of her husband's evidence.

Sarah Deacon said she occupied a room on the
ground-floor of the 'douse 22, Broad-street, and on
the night in question heard a heavy fall, and had no
doubt it was in the prisoner's room. Heard no-
thing more until she was called by Mrs. Mitchell,
and then saw the deceased in her own room quite
dead.

Sarah Elizabeth Phillips said that on Sunday, the
19th inst., she was called in, and examined the body
of the deceased. She found marks of bruises all down
the back and over the right shoulder, and continued
to the right ear. There were bruises also on the left
shin and right instep.
Mr. Thompson, the surgeon, in his examination,
said that on opining the head of the deceased he found
a considerable extravasation of blood beneath the in-
teguments corresponding with the external bruises,
and he had no doubt the deceased died from concus-
sion of the brain produced by a blow or fall. The
deceased had all the appearance of a habitual
drunkard, and her system was altogether unhealthy.
She was rather thin and tall, and from the external
bruises on her head he wag of opinion that consider-
able violence had been used to her- The appearances,
however, would have been produced by a fall as
well
as a blow.

Sergeant Otley said that, on his way to the sta-
tion-house, the prisoner said that it was a hard thing
to work all the week and the wife to spend the money.
The prisoner, after receiving the usual caution, in
reply to the charge, said that he found the deceased
on the landing when going down stairs, and that it
appeared to him that she had been sitting on the
bottom stair and pitched forward. Oa going down
stairs he kicked against her, and did not know what
it was; but on getting a light he found it to be his
wife. He tried to lift her up, but found that she had
lost the use of her limbs, and then called to Mitchell
for assistance.

Mr. ELLIOTT told him he should send him before a
jury to take his trial on a charge of manslaughter,
and bound over the witnesses in the usual way to
prosecute.

perienced in that quarter to the progress of a sound
and healthy improvement in the trade.—Aris's Bir-

COURT OF ALDERMEN.

Yesterday a Court was held, accorling to annual
custom, for the purpose of participating with the
Livery assembled in common-hall in the election of a
Lord Mayor for the ensuing year.
THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.

Upon the paper of business stood the following no-
tice of motion by Sir Peter Laurie :
" To consider what steps are requisite to be taken by
this Court in consequence of the lamented decease of the
late Duke of Wellington."
That question was, of course, allowed to take pre-
cedence of all others.
Sir PETER LAURIE rose, be said, for the purpose of
moving,—
" That a committee of the whole Court be appointed
to co-operate with that appointed at the last Court of
Common Council, to consider and report upon the best
means of testifying the respect of the Corporation of the
city of London fur the memory of Field-Marshal the
Duke of Wellington."
Even if he considered himself qualified to delineate
the character end stupendous career of the Duke of
Wellington (and the publications of the day supplied
inexhaustible materials for executing the task), he
would not attempt to perform such a task, for the
attempt would argua a doubt of that anxiety which
he knew his brethren felt to record by some appro
priate testimonial their sense of the loss the country
had sustained. He would, however, venture to allude
to some characteristics which might not unfitly be re-
ferred to by a bench of magistrates.—(Hear.) The
Duke's great authority in the councils of the nation,
his vast moral influence with foreign Cabinets, the
veneration in which he was held by his countrymen,
were owing not more to his success as a warrior
and his talents as a statesman than to the uni-
versal belief in his inviolate faith, his unhesitating
truthfulness, and his single-minded devotion to his
country.—(Loud cheers.) Unlike the diplomatist
Talleyrand, who laid and acted upon the belief
that language was given to man to conceal his
thoughts—an expression, by the by, borrowed from
Oliver Goldsmith—truth and sincerity seemed to be
instincts of his nature, and, while his guiding star
was duty, that star led him only through the path of
honour. These were great principles which all of us,
in our various spheres, might struggle to imitate. He
would add but one more observation, and that would
be in noticing the Duke of Wellington's moderation
in success, when, in the eloquent words of Mr. Ab-
bott, the Speaker of the House of Commons, " that
ascendancy of character which, uniting the energies
of jealous and rival nations, enabled him to wield at
will the fate and fortunes of mighty empires."—
(Cheers.) Never was he dazzled with success, nor,
in days of gloom and doubt, were his calmness and
enduring fortitude for a moment shaken. Through-
out that unexampled career no foreign historian had
ever assailed the reputation of the Duke of Welling-
ton, while numberless eloquent tributes to his justice,
his moderation, and his disinterestedness, flowed
from their pens.—(Hear, hear.) With these few ob-
servations he would leave his motion in the hands of
the Court, fully satisfied that the corporation would
act worthily of themselves upon the occasion. Nothing
that they could erect was needed to perpetuate the
fame of Wellington, for his name alone was an im-
perishable monument; but he knew the corporation
were anxious to do honour to themselves by honouring
the memory of the greatest subject of the realm and
the brightest name upon their freemen's roll.—
(Cheers.) Sir Peter Laurie concluded by expressing
his opinion that Nelson's funeral would be the prece-
dent, so far as the citizens of London were to be con-
cerned, for the last ceremony in honour of the illus-
trious warrior whom the nation lamented ; and hoping
that both courts would cordially join in producing a ,
testimonial adapted to the high reputation of its object,
of whom it might truly be said,
" He was a man, take him for all in all,
We shall not look upon his like again."
Alderman FAREEROTHEE, in seconding the motion,
said he perfectly acquiesced in the observations made
by Sir P. Laurie in honour of the illustrious man
who had just been taken away from a world in every
part of which his great deeds and glorious character
were sure to be commemorated.—(Cheers.) Sir P.
Laurie had wisely abstained from enlarging upon the
subject of the merits of the Duke of Wellington—a
subject which haft already engaged the ablest pens in
the empire. He would follow that example, and
simply express his extreme sorrow at being obliged
to second a motion announcing
.so severe a nationa
loss.—(Elear, bear.)
The motion was then unanimously agreed to.
TREATMENT OF EMIGRANTS.

Alderman COPELAND said be had to entreat the at-
tention of the Court to a subject upon which one of
his brethren (Sir H. Carden) had recently very much
distinguished himself. He meant the fraudulent
conduct of persons who acted as ship agents, and ob-
tained money from poor emigrants.—(Hear.) As
the Court of Aldermen were in the habit of licensing
brokers, he considered that they should take imme-
diate steps for the more effectual protection of un-
fortunate persons who wish to emigrate.
Alderman SIDNEY called Alderman Copeland to
order. There was, he said, no notice of motion on
the paper, and if the Court were to go into the ques-
tion of frauds committed by brokers at such a time,
the business on the paper must necessarily be ne-
glected.
Alderman COPELAND said it was true there was no
notice of motion upon the paper, but the subject was
really of so pressing a nature that he thought the
strict rule of the court might be relaxed. As he saw
no disposition to indulge him with permission to sub-
mit a mction upon such an emergency, he would call
upon the Lord Mayor to convene a special court
upon the matter to which he referred. He could show
that the most gross frauds were at the present mo-
ment being :perpetrated—that in fact the Court was
not justified in the delay of a moment. (Alderman
Copeland's motion stands for a future day.)
THE NEW PRISON AT HOLLOWAY.
Alderman CHALLIS (the Lord Mayor elect)
brought up the report of the committee in relation to
gaols, to whom it was referred to ascertain and re-
port on the number and salaries of the officers re-

quired for the new prison at Holloway, and what
officers now employed by the corporation are suitable
to fill such situations, with power to fit up and pre-
pare the magistrates' room for their use, and the prison
for the reception of prisoners. The following are the
principal parts of the report :
" We gave instructions for preparing and furnishing
the magistrates' rooms for their immediate use, and re-
ferred it to a sub-committee to consider that part of the
reference which related to the number and salaries of
the officers, and the best course to be recommended for
adoption as to tilling up the requisite appointments, and
also with reference to fitting up the prison; and we also
directed the City architect to procure and lay before us
tenders for the fittings for the same, and the City solici-
tor to consider the several provisions of the Gaol Acts
of Parliament, and to report to us what was requisite to
be done with respect to opening the prison, and the
nature of the prisoners to be con lined therein.

"In consequence of our directions, on the 23d of July
last tho sus-committee received various tenders, and
entered into ageement with sundry parties for the per-
formance of the works required (under the superinten-
dence and directions of the City architect) for fitting up
the said prison, which has been carried out to our sa-
tisfaction, and the said prison completed for the recep-
tion of prisoners. The sub-committee also in part pro-
ceeded to the consideration of the officers to be appointed
thereto, and the salaries to be allowed them, and the
better to enable them to form a correct judgment on
this point had a return of the various ages, salaries,
and allowances of the present subordinate officers of the
Giltspur-street Compter, with two lists from Mr. Laurie,
the clerk of the works at the new prison, of the number
of officers that would be required there, and of the
rooms or apartments
provided
tor their accommodation.

In addition to which Mr. Town Clerk laid before them

an abstract from the 15th report of the Inspectors of
Prisons for the Home District in the year 1850, of the
salaries paid to the keepers of prisons in the kingdom
generally, commencing with 3001 per annum each and
upwards, with their residences and allowances, and also.

of the salaries paid to the chaplains and surgeons of
these prisons.

" The solicitor has subnquently reported to us the
particulars requisite to be observed by this honourable
Court on the removal of prsoners to the said gaol, and
submitted to us the draft of an order to be passed by the
Court with respect to the nature and description of pri-
soners to be confined there which we have caused to be

hereunto annexed, and approving thereof recommend the
same to this henourable Court for adoption, and that the
same be notified to the several aldermen, justices of the
said city, and advertised agreeably to the provisions of
the Act of Parliament; and we also recommend the Court
to direct the removal of the prisoners from the Giltspur-
street Compter to the said new prison from and after
Wednesday the 6th of October next. We have not yet
been enabled to go sufficiently into the reference with re-h
speet to the requisite officers for Ithe said prison, and
therefore recommend this honourable Court in the in-
terim to direct that all the subordinate officers from the
Giltspur-street Compter be removed therefroei(3),.t.,reo

expedient of temporarily filling up the offices, and
had not shown a proper disposition to economise. He

The LORD MAYOR. ELECT said that if Aldermsa

or twice, he would have observed the very
earnest disposition of the members to adopt a rigia

series ofi a
the Court gements would, of course, come from
itself, and there would be full opportunity
of discussing their merits, if Alderman Sidney would
but check his eloquence until the more convenient I.
season should arrive.
Alderman FAREEROTIIER said there was this Lir
portant matter for consideration in the changes %vote
must take place with respect to those officers who a '
present occupied the principal situations in the city
prisons. He could bear the strongest testimony, from
an acquaintance of many years to the highly honour-
able and efficient conduct of Mr. Cope, the Governor ,
of Newgate.—(Hear, hear.) Ile also believed Dir.
Wright, the Deputy-Governor, to be in every respect
qualified to undertake the duties of the highest situs-
tions in our prisons; but how to dispose of others
who had claims for long services had not been hinted
at. The report was in that respect, in bis opiniov,
defective.
Alderman LAWRENCE confirmed the statement of
Alderman Challis, that the committee bad been acting
upon the principle of economy, and that they bad pro-
ceeded in such a manner as not to hamper or confuse
the important subject. He admitted that the city
prison establishments were expensive, but there were
peculiarities in their condition which accounted for
the apparent extravagance. Sometimes the gaol of
Newgate wee crowded with prisoners, and sometimes
it was almost empty. What then were they to do ?
Were they to discharge the turnkeys and other offi-
cers whenever the gaol was cleared, and re-engage
them when a glut came ? or were they to take them
upon board wages ?—(Hear, hear.) He believed that •
the governors of these prisons were paid at an extreme
rate; but the case would be different with respect to
any future governor. He covgratulated his brother
magistrates upon the completion of a new prison, in
which employment—the great preventative of crime
—could be given to the inmates upon an extensive
scale.
With the understanding that an inquiry will take
place into the subject of the merits of all the officers
connected with the City prisons the report was ag
to, and it was referred back to the committee to be
carried into execution. the
