SURREY SESSIONS, Atm. 31,

Mary Pouxll, a young man of respectable ap-
pearance, was indicted fur assaulting Caroline Liver-
more, with intent, &c. _ _

The. prosecutrix, a pretty-looking young woman,
lived as servant with Mrs. Hanbury, an eld and in-
firm lady, in Larkhall-Inne, Stockwell. Shortly be-
fore six o'clock on the evening of the 9th of August
her mistress went out, and about six o'clock, as She
was going out after her, she saw the prisoner at the
gate. He asked if any one was at home, and wit-
ness answered in the negative. He then said he
wanted to speak to her on particular business, and
pushing her by the shoulders into the parlour, he
shut the outer-door. lie then sat down on a chair
pulled her on his kee, and proceeded in a manner
which we forbear from describing. By force She
escaped from him and ran into the kitchen, whither,
he followed her, and ogitio ill used her. She again
escaped, and was flying to the door, when he a third
time caught hold of her, and though she succeeded
in ultimately escaping from him, she was much dis-
ordered, and her wrists were bruised. The language
he used was infamous in the extreme. She rail im-
mediately to a grocer's shop opposite, kept by Mrs.
Gamble, and related how she had been ill used, and
as soon as her mistress came home, she informed her
of what had happened.
The prosecutrix underwent a severe cross-exami-
nation, but her testimony was not in the slightest
degree shaken. She stated that she had seen the
prisoner three times before, but had never spoken
to him. He was employed to take likenesses aa
place called the " Saloon of Arts," in the Clapham-
road, which place Mrs. Ilanbury used sometimes to
visit, and she (the prosecutrix) went to bring her
home, and on these occasions she saw the prisoner
there.

Mrs. Gamble, who lived nearly opposite Mrs.
Hanbury, spoke to the distressing state in which the
proiecutris was when She COTIC to her shop on the
evening in question, and complained of being ill-used.
Mr. Hanbury, the son of the prosecutrix's mis-
tress, said the prosecntrix was so much injaretUin
her wrists that she was incapable of attending to
her work for several slays, and that she was obliged
to have medical advice.

The CHAIRMAN having summed up, the Jury im-
mediately found the prisoner Guilty.
The CHAIRMAN told the prisoner more grim
mole of attempting to violate the person of a finely
than this never came before a Court of Justice, and
it required to be denit with so ni to he an example
to others. The sentence of the Court was, that
the prisoner be kept to bird labour for the period of
two years.

TOILET.--AS soon 113 NAPOLEON hid the,ll,
his valet de chambre shaved him and dressed his hair. While
there operations were going on, I read the Journals alottd.
He gave no attention, save to the English and German
newspapers. " Pass, pass," he would say to me, on reed-
ing the French journals; I know all that is there, They
say only what 1 wish." 1 have often been much antonishial
that hie valet did not cut him, for,, on hearing any thing
remarkable, he turned suddenly Wards my side. When
his toilet was completed, and that, too, with great eare,r-
for he dressed with scrupulous neatness,—we descended
together to the study. There he signed the answer to im-
portant petitions, of which the analysis had been niade by
myself the preceding evening. On levees espouially, and
public days, he was very punctual in these signatures, be-
cause I took care to put him in mind that the greater part
of the petitioners would present themselves on his passing
to the parade ground. In order to spare him this annoy-
ance, I informed them iu advance what was the detiaion
of the'First'Consul. Afterwards, he rem' the open letters,
which I placed in order on his table, classing them ac.

(Froin the Times Corn sixmdent.)

of AUG. 28,EIGHT O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING.
" Nothing ha's yet been done towards the perma-
nent restoration of tranquillity. The shops are still
silk over all the city. The troops are still encamped
before the Royal Palace; the groups of manufac-
turers are still wandering about without employ-
ment; and the ton t' is still in the hands of its pro-
visional protectors, without any interference from
the general Government. Doting the night there
have been no diaturbances, thanks to the imposing
force and admirable energy of the civic Guards.—
Nearly all the respee•able citizens are now enrolled
in that corps, and devote their time, their watchful-
ness, and their fatigues, to the cause of order and
Safety. Some of them, lam assured, have not slept
two hours for the last two days. To prevent con-
fusion, and to be unable to recognize each other on
their (Judea, the citizens of each different quarter or
district combine to Nun a separate company, regi-
ment, or brigade, and in traversing the streets to
occupy their Various posts, onto relieve guard, are
known by the number in large characters stuck on
heir hats.
" When.l spoke of the admirable energy' with

which the city guards Conduct their defence o.
order, I had in my eye n striking display of it, of
which I last night was a witness, which killed
one man and wounded several, before the hotel of
Bellevue, and had nearly proved fatal to some of
its inmates.
" About nine o'clock numerous groups had col.
leeted in the neighbourhood of the park, and
almost filled: the open space in the Rue Royale.
At this time a single soldier was passing, having
been sent on u message to the neighbourhood.—
A crowd collected round him, and demanded his
arms, while one of the mob, evidently drunk, went
in, amid wrested his musket kern his bands. The
same fellow who bad obtained this trophy set up
a kind of derisiite shout against some of the civic
guards who occupied the post in the vicinity.--
Lie even provoked u party of boys and blackguards
to throw stones at them. A considerable pile of
large stones, picked from the paving, had been col-
lected at the corner of the hotel, and were destined
either for the troops or civic guards, as the caprice
of the rabble might suggest. A small detachment
of the armed citizens was sent for immediately, and
on its arrival ordered the crowds to disperse. The
command wits received with insulting indifference by
the few desperadoes who surrounded this drunken

Vagabond Some atones were even thrown. An
order was given to fire; and though the platoon'ge-
nerally fired high, two men instantly fell, and several
others were wounded, One of, the men who Ml im-
mediately expired, and the other was not expected
to survive. One of the waiters of the hotel, Who
was standing on the table in the dining-room to Wit-
ness the fray was wounded severely in the foot.
,The square was instantly cleared, amid the furious
screams and yells of men, women, and children
,flying for their lives. The alarmed multitude en-
deavoured to escape the danger- which their errors
had greatly magnified, by breaking into the houses
which surrounded them, and our hotel would have
been taken by assault had not an armed garrison
consisting of strangers, travellers, waiters,
and domesticr, provided with gnus, pistolo,swords,
sabres, carving knives, and pitch-forks, kept out the
Multitude. The alarm continued for some time, but
in about an hour the place was entirely cleared.
" Had this severe example not been made, the
newly organised force would have been treated with
contempt; the disorders of the city would have
been renewed, and more blood would have been
shed than what flowed at their origin. The conse-
quences of such prompt interference is now general
submission to the civic guards, and the perfect order
which has reigned for the last 12 hours.

The Gerdes Bourgeois, or civic militia, tho Ugh
only called out within the last 48 hours, now include
In their ranks about 4,400 'men, well armed, and,
though of course not yet well disciplined, zealous
and punet nal in the dkcharge of their military ditties.
They are compo4d of all the commercial part of the
coMmunity, of the landed proprietors of the country
who reside in- the capital, of the gentlemen of the
and other professional persons attached to the
courts, of the chief maoufacturers, and the shop-
keepers, and, in shart, of all the respectable inhabi-
Uinta. To an Englishman who has never seen any
emergency at home to OccaSion such an improvita•
lion of an army, it is a matter of surprise and limo-
nishrtient,.that so great a force, so capable of doing
all the duties required of it, should have been got to-
gether in 48 hours. The military appearance of the
patrols, or of the larger masses, paiatling the streets,
their perfect acquaintance with the military march
and with military evolutions, is not the least our-
prising part of the exhihition.. 'Had the manufac-
turers and chief inhabitants of Manchester behaved
with tin, imine'decision during the agitation of their
woikmen in the summer of 1819, there might have
been no occasion for the massacre of the Itltb of
august.

merits of this strange insurrection were produced by
ihe poor without .bread, whose feelings, front went
discussions end events, bad got a political tendency,
and 'who traced their auiferings-.•not to inevitable

fheir first cure, therefore, was to mix with the mob in

order to master it---to Inculcate abstinence from Ow-

the design' of sal igrying the lower rioters no far as lay
in their power, the city authorities or Regency an-
nounced the nbolition of the only taxes ac its dis-
poni which pressed upon the poor,—natorly, the
Aour or bread tax, and the tax on meat, or the

abanage. The ,next object wet to disarm the rioters,
who had torn down the Royal ensigns, tool cla-
moured for a change of dynasty, while they under-
stood nothing at all of the questioncon which their
seditious cries had so promptly decided. The next
thing, was to give diem breed, and to hold out a
promnie of employment. All this has been done—
done, I trust, effectually; and now that the Jack

have learned how they may depend upon their fel-
low.countryment in the army. They have the
Burgomaster and the members of the City Regency
at their head, and through them have made known
their respectful, and what they call their moderate
demands to the Government. These demands I
am happy to be enabled to state to you from an
official source :

".l. They include, in the first place, the corn-
plate execution of the Loi FOndantantale, or Char-
ter, given by the King at his accession, or on the
union of Belgium with Holland.
" 2. In the second place, the dism4sal of the
Minister of Justice, Van MUM', (whose hotel has
been burnt), and another member of the Cabinet,
together with some of the most obnoxious city au•
thorit ies.
" 3. In the third place, the equal division of
offices between the two nations, the Belgians and
the Dutch ; and, as a corollary to this demand, the
transference of two departments of interior admini-
stration (which are now at the Hague) to Brussels,
" 4. The establishment of the chief tribunal or
haute cone of the nation, not at the Hague, but in
some frontier town. The Belgians think that they
have a right to have this court at Brussels, as for-
merly ; but in order to show the greater modem-

tion;they wave that right, and only. require that it
shall he on the frontier of the two sets of provinces
and not in the heart of Holland.
" There are some minor points added to the re-
presentation on these heads, but they are scarcely
worth describing.
" Yesterday, amid all the duties of orgenizitr
their Guards, and protecting their property, the
notables of the city waited.on the Burgomaster with
their propositions. This worthy magistrate re-
quested them to consult with the chief persons in
their several quarters, anti to send their proposals
through four Deputies from each of the eight sec-
tions or districts into which Brussels is divided. This
deputation waited upon him this morning, and
agreed upon the conditions which I have just enu-
merated. The Burgomaster told them that he
expected Prince Frederick to-day about twelve
o'clock, with authority to act from his father; but
that, if his Royal Highness did not arrive, he would
send off, by a special courier, the document on which
they had agreed.
" It is very singular, that though Brussels has
been in a state of siege for three days—though the
houses of the Ministers had been burnt—though the
troops had agreed not to act, and though greater
events were expected than have occurred—that no
answer has been received from the Hague to the
first despatches, which were sent thither on the
morning of Thursday
" It is hoped, though the King is obstinate, that
lie will yield in this instance, He is personally very
much beloved, and deserves all the respect of a
people who COI appreciate his good qualities; but
the Belgians think that he is too much of a Dutch.

man, and have always quarrelled with his Date
Councillors.

" Among the upper ranks here, from the very
beginning, nobody has whispered a change of dy-
nasty. The lower classes behaved as I have formerly
described.

" There have been only I 4 persons in all killed,
in what I hope we may call the late commotion;
12 or 13 on the Thursday, morning, and one or two
lust night.

" ONE O'CLOCK, PAL
" The report is very general that Prince Frede-
rick, who, you know, is Commander-in. Chief of the
army, has arrived. If this be the case, we may soon
expect an answer to the propositions of the city.
" In the mean time the commanding-officers of
the different sections of the Garde Bourgeoise have
gone round to the different stations of that body,
and announced, that though great bodies of the
King's troops had arrived in the neighbourhood of
Brussels, they would not attempt an entry till a
definitive answer should arrive from the Hague, but
would remain till then ut the distance of half a
league from the barriers. This announcement was
received in the Place de hi Monnaie On which the
great theatre is situated) with shouts of satimfootioo.
The officer, M. Henry du Roy, gave this intima-
tion publicly to a species of etat-major in my hear-
ing. It was stated among the officers afterwards,
that there have been directed on BrOssels more than
5,000 men, with a strong park of artillery.
" The troops continue stationed as before in the
Place Royale, but have no other post. They hive
not moved for the last three days, but receive their
rations under arms.

" SIX O'CLOCK .P.M.
" It has been arranged that a commission com-
posed of the chief inhabitants of Brussels, at the
head of which is the commandant of the Communal
Guard, shall set out for the Hague this night. The
troops, consisting of not less than 6,000 men out of
the city, with 12 pieces of cannon, shall remain
where they are till the deputation returns. 'Their
propositions are what I have stated above. The
troops in the city retain their position till the answer.
" Great hopes are entertained of u speedy and
satisfactory arrangement."

" TIM HAGUE, AUG. 29.
" It is impossible to describe to you the interest
which has been produced here by the account of
the revolutionary movement at Brussels. The
Council met at nine o'clock yesterday morning, and
after sitting for some time adjourned until the eve-
ning at seven, when it met again, and, with the
express concurrence of the King, who appears to
have acted with equal firmness and good sense,
resolved on a Proclamation, summoning the States
Gene►al to meet immediately, for the purpose of dis-
missing the claims of the Netherlanders, and redress•
ing any grievances Which may be thought worthy
Of consideration. In the meantime, every possible
precaution is taken, and Dutch troops have been
ordered off to the scene of commotion. This mea-
sure has been warmly remonstrated against by some
of the Members of the Council, on the ground of
the known animosity of the Belgiaii troops to those
of Holland and it is not improbable chit the order
will be countermanded. .

" We are waiting here with great anxiety to
learn what are the demands of the burghers of Brus-
sels. It is stated that when the last express left
Brussels, the old Brabancon flag was flying '
on Ow
Hotel de Ville. This', however, does not accord
with some accounts.

" Thu Piinee of Orange and Prince Frederick
have left for Antwerp, where a similar explosion to
that of lir nssela is feared, but their presence may
provost it.
" Amsterdam is perfectly tranquil, and hopes are
entertained that matters will be accommodated."

‘f The news has this day reached us *or a riot
having taken place at Brussels, and of the Prime
Minister's' house being burnt down end the (30..
vernor's plundered. The 'rioters appearing to con-
sist chiefly of the lower class of people, it is hoped
the disturbances mayd soon be quelled. There is no
fear about
.the sprint mg of the disturbances, at least
tho real Dutch people are too well satisfied with °or
King to be led Astray by a few malcontents. Still
it may be expected, that a large army will be sent
into Brabant without delay. The Prince of Orange
is already gone there."
