Delarue's Diaries and Pocket-Books,

The eminent House of the Delarues is again in
the field betimes (in the very beginning of Decem-
ber) with their wonderful variety of Diaries, Calen-
dars, and Pocket Books for the approaching twelve-
month. Got up in every imaginable way, of every
imaginable size, at every imaginable price that could
in reason be looked for, these Pocket-Books, Calen-
dars, and Diaries of the Delarues are in style adapted
to every taste, and, in size and price, alike, to
every pocket. The red-letter calendars, as mere
specimens of printing, are all of them, just simply,
in one word, exquisite. There is a sense of plea-
sure in handling the glossy covers they are
stitched in, as there is a gratification to yet another
sense in breathing the aroma of the russia leather
coverings, belts, and pouches of the pocket-books,
pocket-books containing others of these same
calendars, stitched not in varnished paper, but
in satin. As the frontispiece for this next year,
18" (leap year), there is a lovely specimen of
the photographic art as applied thus nowadays
by way of illustration. A very bijou picture
(this frontispiece is) of the Moon, 1839, September
the 1 lth,lllll. 20m., age, 14.8 days, as photo-
graphed by Smith, Beck, and Beck, from Mr.
Warren de la Rue's original negative. Tie Diaries
it should be said, moreover, are very carefully edited
throughout by James Glaisher, F.R S., of the
Royal Observatory, Greenwich—an article upon
the Moon comprised among the contents being
penned by Mr. John Russell Hind, the Eminent
Astrouomer, who announces himself as Superin-
tendent of the " Nautical Almanack." Every variety
of information that could be wished for in a Diary,
is here compacted together in these wonderful
tittle publications. Even a copious table of Cab
Fares has not been forgotten. Mercantile info!,
mation, political information, astronomical and
meteorological, arithmetical and statistical in-
formation—here they all are: and arranged in
serried ranks, page after page in symmetrical
order, so as to facilitate reference in a manner as
marvellous for its simplicity, as it is certainly
delightful in its results. These are diaries, in
fact, worthy of receiving the name of, and winning
their way to constant use as—Pocket Companions.

FORGERY.

Edward Burt was indiotod for forging and uttering a
cheque on the Bank of England for the sum of £2O, with
intent to defraud the governor and company of the Bank of
England.
The prisoner, it appeared, was casually employed by Mr.
Percival, a horse dealer, in the neighbourhood of Eaton-
square, who kept an account at the Bank of England, and
his cheque book in his desk in the office adjoining the
yard. The prisoner, as also other persons employed about
the ard, had access to the premises ; and in the early part
of Oct. the prosecutor was absent for several days at a fair,
and on his return found that some person had torn a
cheque out of his book, which it was afterwards ascer-
tained had been filled up for a sum of £2O and purporting
to be signed by the prosecutor, and presented, it was be-
lieved, by the prisoner, who received three £5 notes, one
of which was numbered 57,281. The prisoner, who was
in rather poor circumstances, was suddenly found very flush
of money. He made a statement to the foreman of Mr.
Sewell, a veterinary surgeon, that he had been to the bank to
get a cheque cashed, and he was also traced to have given a
£5 note, No. 57,281, to his landlady in payment of a debt.
On her sending the note to be changed, it was returned
to her to put her name upon it, and at her request
the prisoner wrote her name on the note in question, which
was produced and identified.
The jury returned a verdict of guilty of uttering the
cheque, km.wing it to be forged.
The learned Judge sentenced him to three years' penal
servitude.

NEW COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Byles.)
CHARGE OF CUTTING AND WOUNDING.

Bridget Ford was indicted for cutting and wounding
a woman namei Ford. _ _

The evidence showed that there had been a quarrel be-
tween a number of women in the neighbourhood of the
Thames Police-court, and that the prisoner, it was said,
wilfully cut the prosecutor violently on the head with a
glass bottle.
The jury returned a verdict of acquittal.

THIRD COURT.
(Before the Recorder,)
ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE.

Henry Kelly, George Davis, and Edward Sweeny were
indicted for a robbery with violence on Jeremiah Pendi.
goat, and stealing from him a snuff-box and a pocket-
book.
The jury found all those prisoners guilty.
A number of police-constables proved four convictions
against each of them.
The learned Judge sentenn,ed Davis to 10 years, Sweeny
to 7 years, and Kelly to 8 years' penal servitude.

RE LONG AND RALFE.

These bankrupts were described as of Mincing-lane,
colonial brok€ rs, and this was a meeting for choice of as-
signees. The debts to creditors are £3,000, but there are
liabilities on outstanding bills (in the hands of persons
whom the bankrupts do not know), accepted in the name of
the firm by Wallis, their late partner. The total debts and
liabilities amount to about £10,000; assets uncertain.
Mr. Ironmonger, Mincing-lane, was appointed assignee,

EXTRACrS FROM THE REPORT FOR THE YEAR

1862.

The Directors of the Royal Insurance Company are now
called upon to make their accustomed periodical Report at the
Meeting of its Shareholders.

FIRE BRANCH.

The Directors have, as pleasingly as unexpectedly, at the
close of the year, to announce, for the first time, that the Fire
Premiums have not only reached, but exceed £300,000.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THE LEICESTER-SQUARE BEGGING NUISANCE.—Mary
Riley, a woman about 30 years of age, John Riley, 9, George
Pooley, 13, Henry Pooley, 9, James Malony, 12, Thomas
Flannagan, 12, Mary Appleton, 12, and Mary Smith, 12,
from Charles .street, Drury -lane, Kent-street, Borough,
and Clare-market, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with
begging in Leicester-square, the woman also being charged
with causing John Riley to beg.
From the evidence of William Gordon, 338 A, it appeared
that about half-past eight the previous evening, as the
visitors were going into the Alhambra Palace, Leicester-
square, he observed all the children---who were without
shoes—running after and begging of them, the woman
Riley all the while sitting in a doorway. After watching
the children for some time, he heerd the woman Riley say
to her son, "Go on Johany," and then saw the boy follow
a gentleman, who gave him something, and the boy then
returned and gave whatever it was to his mother. On
searching the woman Is, 9d. was found in her pocket.
After a long rambling statement from the woman, deli-
vered with the usual whine of her class,

Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was clear the woman was sitting in
the doorway for the purpose of bagging the money she
received from the boy. As for the other poor little things
they probably had rushed out of courts, thinking they could
perhaps get a penny by taking example of the woman and
others. He should commit the ?omen for 14 days, but
discharge the children.
The nuisance of children begging in Leicester-square has
of late become very great ; as many as 30 or 40 children of
an evening are to be seen begging at one time in different
parts of the square.

INDIA.

By the arrival of the Overland Mail we have
received Calcutta papers to August 8. There is no
news of particular interest. The Englishman of the
above date contains the following :
We recently extracted from the limes of India a
very lengthy detailed account of the capture of the
Nana, and the statements made by those who have
come forward to speak to his identity, the whole far
too long for an overland paper. The same paper
has also the following :
" We are glad to be able to relieve the public of
all further uncertainty concerning the Nana. The
blind Brahmin has become Queen's evidence, and
identified the Nana himself. This information
reached us yesterday from Rajpootana."

Judging from the photographs we have seen, we
should be inclined to think that they have got his
brother, Baba Batt, an older man, and, according
to description, considerably more like the photo-
graph we have seen than the Nanehimself. We
are, moreover, rather in a difficulty as to how the
blind Brahmin could identify the arch rebel, unless
the smell of a living traitor is as powerfully plea-
sant to the Brahmin as that of a dead one was to
Louis XI. Anyhow, it is now generally believed,
even by the Government, that the prisoner is not
the Nana, one of the evidences of this feeling on the
part of the authorities being the fact that the de-
tachment of the 28th sent to Ajmere has been with-
drawn.

Federal advices from Charleston to the 31st ult.

Gregg, and Wagner, and Sullivan's Island Battery
replied to the monitors. The latter passed Forts
Sumter and Wagner without opposition. There
were said to be no obstructions in the harbour, and
an impression prevailed that the fleet could pass up
to the city. The Confederate flag was still flying
on Fort Sumter, which the Confederates were en-
deavouring to repair. General Gilmore's approaches
were close to Fort Wagner.
NEw YORK, Sept. 5 (Morning).

News received from Charleston to the Ist inst.
announces that the Federal ironclads had withdrawn
from the attack on Fort Moultrie.

The Confederates had remounted some guns on
the ruins of Fort Sumter, and made other prepara-
tions for defence.
General Gilmore had driven the Confederates
from the rifle pits on the left of his advanced line,
capturing 70 prisoners. He had also run a parallel
against Fort Wagner. No further bombardment of
the city had taken place.

ADELPHI THEATRE.

Mr. Toole, having taken his departure from Lon-
don on a short starring expedition, a Mr. A. Wood,
of the Bath and Bristol theatres, last night made
his bow before a metropolitan audience in the part
of Tom Twigg, in the well-known farce, " Catching
an Heiress." It wou d be hardly fair to express a
decided opinion on the merits of this gentleman as
a low comedian on the present occasion, because,
added to the embarrassment invariably created by a
first appearance, the fact of coming after Toole
must, in a great degree, have had a depressing
effect on his spirits. However, notwithstand-
ing the difficulty of the position of Mr. Wood,
if he did not take his audience by storm, he at
least made a very favourable impression. In the
farce he sang the celebrated comic song " The S tatty
Fair" in capital style, and gave a number of excel-
lent imitations in such a manner as to elicit an
encore. Having accomplished the first part of his
task, his second was very much more difficult,
namely, the embodiment of the character of Tet-
terby, i❑ the " Haunted Man," in which Mr. Toole
has created such a deep impression. Here the re-
straint of Mr. Wood began to wear off, and although
it cannot be said ho seemed quite at his ease, he
acquitted himself very satisfactorily. We shall
take another opportunity of expressing our opinion
upon Mr. Wood's merits as an actor, contenting
ourselves for the present by observing that if he
did not evoke the laughter of the entire audience
by his wit and humour, he never once offended by
the exhibition of over-familiarity and coarseness.
Mrs. Stirling is still the great attraction at the
Adelphi, and long may she continue so, for assuredly
she is one of the greatest and most finished actresses
on the London stage. Last night she played Ann
Braciqiidle in " The Tragedy Queen," and Mrs.
Sawderley in the " Hen and Chickens," in her own
unapproachable manner, which elicited the 11D-
bounded applause of a very well filled house.

The BLACK CLOUD.

Another cloud in the distance is the 500,000 darks
that Jeff Davin is to arm and send North. This is
considered a very good joke by many persons.
Newspapers that deem it true piously quote the
sentence, " Whom God wishes to destroy he first
makes mad." There will he too much method in
arming even 100,000 slaves. Under masters that
they dread they will become powerful soldiers ;
incited by the prospect of a reward of land they
will become giants. The negro slave will be-
lieve his master. When he has in former
years said he would give him a potato patch,
or anything else, he has done it. The negro
will believe that he will faithfully keep his word in
the new promise, and he will make a soldier—and
one to be dreaded by the Northern army. I see
trouble ahead, with a negro army of slaves fighting
for the rebels. Doubtless they will eventually fight
for themselves against their white masters in the
South ; but that may be twenty years hence. There
will be bloody work if the Southern slaves are
armed and pushed into this war. It is a dark
cloud in the distance.

The tide has evidently changed, and the rebel-
lion may have a run of luck for some weeks.
General Rosecranz seems to have subsided.
There is doubt about his having taken Chattanooga,
General Banks at New Orleans is being destroyed
by yellow fever. There is also a cloud in that
quarter.

MARLBOROUGH -STREET.

THE LEICESTER-SQUARE BEGGING NUISANCE —Mary
Riley, a woman about 30 years of age, John Riley, 9, George
Pooley, 13, Henry Pooley, 9, James Malony, 12, Thomas
Flannagan, 12, Mary Appleton, 12, and Mary Smith, 12,
from Charles-street, Drury -lane, Kent-street, Borough,
and Clare-market, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with
begging in Leicester-square, the woman also being charged
with causing John Riley to beg.
From the evidence of 'William Gordon, 338 A, it appeared
that about half-past eight the previous evening, as the
visitors were going into the Alhambra Palace, Leicester-
square, he observed all the children—who were without
shoes—running after and begging of them, the woman
Riley all the while sitting in a doorway. After watching
the children for some time, he heard the woman Riley say
to her son, "Go on Johnny," and then saw the boy follow
a geatleman, who gave him something, and the boy then
returned and gave whatever it was to his mother. On
searching the woman ls. 9d. was found in her pocket.
After a long rambling statement from the woman, deli-
vered with the usual whine of her class,
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was clear the woman was sitting in
the doorway for the purpose ,of bagging the money she
received from the boy. As for the other poor little things
they probably had rushed out of courts, thinking they could
perhaps get a penny by taking example of the woman and
others. He should commit the woman for 14 days, but
discharge the children.
The nuisance of children begging in Leicester-square has
of late become very great ; as many as 30 or 40 children of
an evening are to be seen begging at one time in different
parts of the square.

BOW-STREET.

FINDING A DIAMOND LOCKET.—Edwin Hill, a Custom-
house officer, residing at 45, Adam-street West, Portman-
square, appeared before Mr. Corrie, charged with unlaw-
fully having in his possession a gold and diamond locket,
value £2O. _ _

The locket is of an oval form, and has on one side a cross
set in diamonds, the spaces jetween which are filled with
lopes lazuli, and on the othar four oval rings in gold, the
blue enamel ground forming also another cross.
Miss Levy, of 13, Broad-curt, said the prisoner brought
the locket to her and asked ler to purchase it. He said it
contained 76 small and 3 large diamonds. She said she
should not like to buy it without she knew who he was tacl
whether all was correct or not, and asked him to go with her
to the pawnbroker's to ascertain its value. On getting there
the pawnbroker said it was t diamond locket, but he did
not care about telling the worth of it. A constable happen-
ing to be in the next compartment to that in which the
inquiry was made listened to the conversation, and even-
tually he took Hill to the station-house. He seemed very
much confused when he was questioned as to how he be
came possessed of it, and he said it belonged to his wife,
and that it had been given to her before marriage.
Mr. Corrie—He gave an address when he was at the
station—was it a correct one ?

Inspector West—Yee, your worship. He also says he
is an officer in the Customs. He had varied his statement
as to how he became possessed of the locket, because at the
station he said he picked it up about twe months ago under
the colonnade of Her Majesty's Theatre. _ _

Police-constable, 166 F, said from inquiries he had made
he found that he acted as a box-keeper at Her Majesty's
Theatre. When he first questioned him about the locket
he said it belonged to his wife,and on going to his residence
in Adam• street, Mrs. Hill also sail the locket had been
given to her by a gentlemaL previous to her marriage.
When he returned to the staticn from making his inquiries
Hill said he found the locket a the place mentioned,
Mr, Corrie—Being a box-keeper in Her Majesty's theatre
it is possible he may have picked it up inside.
Inspector West—Quite so. I have been to two persons
this morning, and they both tell me the locket is worth £2O.
Mr. Corrie—Has any inquiry been made about the pro-
perty at the theatre ? The loss of such an article might
have been mentioned at the time.

Inspector West—We have inquired there, but they
know nothing about it.
Mr. Corrie—There is nothing to trace it by. There is
no mark of any description, and the interior is quite empty.
Inspector West—There is nothing, your worship. The
prisoner told me he picked it up about three or four months
ago.
Mr. Corrie (to Hill)—The circumstances under which
you became possessed of this locket must be strictly in-
quired into. As you gave your right address and can be
easily found, I shall admit you to bail upon your entering
into your own recognizances in the sum of Li% to appear
here on Saturday week.
