FRANCE.

The Opinions Nationale in referring to the Poles
observes that the struggle continues between them
and the Russians. The official telegrams from Sr.
Petersburg and from the Prussian_frontiers, persist
in giving the victory to the troops of the Cz-ir, but
German correspondents, more impartial, inform us
that the patriots are exercising the utmost intro
pedity, and displaying a heroin courage—they are
occasioning to the Russians an enormous loss.
Le Pays thinks the Polish inaurrection is gain-
ing instead of losing ground, and fully claims the
character given to it by M. Bismark by its
nationaliy and importance. Le Pays denounces
the Prussian convention with Russia, and believes
it impossible that M. Bismark can long presorve
silence upon it. Berlin, Vienna, and London arw
unanimous, says .Le Pays, in its condemnation.

SHERIFFS' COURT

GUARANTEE SOCIETIES AND THE PUBLIC.--IMPORTANT
DECISION.-DODGE V. THE ALBERT AND FAMILY

DOWMENT ASSURANCE COMPANY.

This was an action to recover £4 under a guarantee
policy, plaintiff being an india-rubber merchant, of Dow-
gate-hill, aid detendaros described as above.

Mr. HaLd, ot' Coleman street-, for theplainbtiyff.hismaidtoina
this case my client is the holder of a policy, issued by de-
fendants, guaranteeing the integrity of a traveller named
Dowglass, who was employed by my client. Dowglass has
defaulted, and I have produced a receipt given
customer, which receipt represents a sum embezzled by
Dowglass. On the last occasion I said I would produce
the customer, who carries on his business in Glasgow,
but as the matter is so small I did not think it would be
advisable to run the parties to an expense, but I wish to
state that Mr. Dodge comes fairly before the public to prove
that he has lost his money by Dowglass, and that he under-
stood he was protected by this policy.
The policy was put in, and Mr. Bufrowa, for the com-
pany, made some remark inaudible to the reporter.
Mr. Hand—l am perfectly well aware that we shlll be
fought out upon technical points.
Mr. Burrows—You have no right to say that.
Mr. Hand—But Ido say it, and I consider that my client
has a right to complain. He took the policy as a guarantee
of the honesty of Dowglass.
Mr. Burrows - There should have been a criminal pro-
secution in the matter.
Mr. Hand—lt we could have found Dowglass, who has
absconded, ws should have prosecuted him.
His Honour—Y-Ju must show that Dowglass has com-
mitted embezzlement or larceny.
Mr. But rows—And 1 contend that a mere question of
account After fiusratlierid
not sufficient.
having been given, a verdict was
returned for the defendants.

Attempt to Poison Eight Persons.

The Court of Ass'zes of the Maine-et-Loire has just tried
a farmer named Arrial, on a charge of attempting ,o poison
eight persons at Villedieu, in the abovenamed department.
This crime, like many others, seems to have originated in
the superstitious belief of the peasantry in witchcraft and
sorcery. The prisoner had been for some yeats on ill terms
with his nephew, Fontenau, owing to some dispute about
pecuniary matters, and whenever any misfortune or afflic-
tion occurred to him or his family, he invariably attributed
it to a spell thrown on him by his nephew. In 1861 the
prisoner's son died after a short illness, and his wife
was also taken ill. Under these circumstances the
prisoner went to consult several reputed sorciers,
one of whom informed him that he was under a

spell thrown on him by his nearest neighbour, and to coun-
teract its pernicious effect he was told to catch a rabbit in
its burrow, taking especial care to seize the animal by its
left leg with his left hand, to skin it alive, and hang it to
rot as near as possible to the door of his enemy, and this
enemy the prisoner concluded to be his nephew, occupying
a house adjoining his, some distance from any other dwel-
ing. As the prisoner's wife did not get any better after
this, he had recourse to a more criminal expedient, for in
June last the family of Fontenau found the ends of a quan-
tity of Lucifer matches in their salt-box, and several of them
experienced symptoms of poisoning from eating soup
seasoned with that salt. As the box hung in a place where
the prisoner could reach it through a crack in the boarded
partition between the prisoner's apartment and Fontenau's,
there was little doubt that he had put the matches into it.
Fontenau accordingly removed it, and nothing unusual oc-
curred till Aug. 17, when the Fontenau family and other pe-
sons who dined with them, eight in all, were taken seriously
ill after dinner. Fontenau's wife had observed a white powder
which she supposed to be flour, mixed with the bay salt in the
box. She mentioned this fact to the doctor who attended
the family, and he, on examining the salt-box, found that
it contained enough whito arsenic to kill two hun-
dred persons. As the prisener was the only person
besides their own family who could have had access to it,
he was arrested. An investigation followed, which led to
the discovery of numerous facts incriminating the prisoner,
and left little doubt of his guilt. In his defence the pri-
soner merely said that all the evidence against him was
false, but the jury did not think so, for they brought in a
verdict of guilty, and the Court sentenced him to 10 years'
imprisonment.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supply of beasts on offer in to-day's market was
only moderate, both as regards number and quality. Prime
Scots, crosses, &c., changed hands stbadily, at full prices.
Otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at Mon-
day's currency. The top quotation was 4s 10d per 81bs.
Sheep—the show of which was limited—were in fair
request, on former terms. The best Downs, in the wool,
realized 6s; shorn sheep, chiefly long-wools, 5s per 81bs
Dorset lambs were a slow inquiry, at 7s to 7s 4d per 81bs.
Prime small calves were firm in price ; but inferior quali-
ties of veal ruled somewhat heavy. The pork trade was in
a sluggish state, at previous quotations. In mulch cows,
very little was doing.

TEETH.-I3y MR. ESKELL'S INVENTION
(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by means of his patented soft elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings and defying detection by tne closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they are guaranteed tc, last a life
time, as well as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

Lord RAYNHAM said, in moving the second reading
of this bill, that the subject had been so fully discussed in
former debates, and the house and the public were there-
fore so well-informed of its nature, that he did not think it
nec, ssary to dwell at any length on its provisions. He re-
gretted that his efforts to amend the law, which he held
was very urgently required, had not as yet been crowned
with success. He still agreed that it was desirable to
place in the hands of magistrates the power of
inflicting corporal punishment on persons convicted
of aggravated assaults on women and children. Never-
theless. though entertaining this opinion, he deemed it
well to bow to the generally expressed opinion of the house,
and the apparent feeling out of doors, and therefore he
now pr, pos. d that corporal punishment should only be in-
flicted on the third conviction of the offender. Several of
the magistrates were in favour of the inflicion of corporal
punishment on apparently incorrigible offenders.
Alderman SIDNEY contended that the present state of
the law was amply sufficient to punish offenders, and moved
th it it be read a second time that day six motths.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL opposed the bill, con-
sidering that the law as amended in 1861 ought not to be
disturbed. The committee which sat on the bill went care-
fully and gravely into the question of whipping, and arrived
at the opinion that only males under 16 years should be
subjected to that indignity. The noble lord, he contended,
had not shown sufficient ground. for the passing of this en-
actment, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Mr. BENTINCK considered that his noble friend de-
served great credit for the manner with which he had
persevered with his bill. He should be glad if the hon.
and learned gentlemau .vho said that the state of circum•
stances which led to the passing of this law were now un-
altered, would repeat that statement every Wednesday for
the benefit of members below the gangway, who brought
in,again and again,bills that had been rejected. (Laughter.)
He h,Ted, too, if t hia gentleman brought in another Re-
form Bill, that he would make this like statement to the
noble lord at its head. Cases constantly occurred in
which flogging was only a fitting punishment for brutal
assaults; indeed, there were people who c-uld only be
taught 'he enormity of their conduct and the necessity of
reforming by physical suffering. He hoped the house
would agree to the second reading of the bill in all its inte-
grity. (Hear, hear.)
Lord RAYN HAM replied.
The house then divided, when there appeared—
For the second reading....

The bill was therefore lost.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supply of beasts on offer in to-day's market was
only moderate, both as regards number and quality. Prime
Scots, crosses, &c., changed hands steadily, at full prices.
Otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at Mon-
day's currency. The top quotation was 4s 10d per Blbs.
Sheep—the show of which was limited—were in fair
request, on former terms. The best Downs, in the wool,
realized 6s; shorn sheep, chiefly long-wools, 5s per 81hs
Dorset lambs were a slow inquiry, at 7s to 7s 4d per 81bs.
Prime small calves were firm in price ; but inferior quali-
ties of veal ruled somewhat heavy. The pork trado was in
a sluggish state, at previous quotations. In mulch cows,
very little was doing.

THE INSURRECTION IN POLAND.

PARIS, FEB. 18.
The Pattie of this evening says the insurrection
is spreading through all parts of the kingdom of
Poland.

The military commanders of the provinces of
Lithuania and VOlhynia have refused to send the
reinforcements demanded from them by the autho-
rities in Poland, as they consider it impossible to

diminish the number of their troops, seeing that
they may soon have to defend their own provinces,

CRACOW, FEB. Is.

Tho insurgents yesterday attacked Alinehow and
were repulsed with loss. rvlinehovv was afterwards
set on fire.

Last night a body of insurgents entered Gema,
in Austrian Poland, probably in consequence of
being pursued by the Russians. No resistance was
made by the inhabitants.

it is said that Langievricz has beaten the Rus-
sians and captured some cannon.

In the attack with the insurgents made yesterday
on Minchow they lost 300 killed and the same num-
ber of wounded. Many of the latter have been
brought to the hospitals of this city,

POSEN, FEB. 18.
The insurgents captured Bonin during the past
night.
The Russians garrisoning the town aro stated to
have been taken by surprise and dispersed.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, FEB. 18.

In to day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies
M. Carlowitz and M. Schulze asked the Minister
whether the Government bad concluded a conven-
tion with Russia, engaging itself to give assistance
to that Power for the purpose of suppressing the
insurrection in Poland ; and, if so, what were the
contents of the convention.

Herr von Biarngalt-Schonbausen simply declined
to answer this question.
A discussion then ensued, in which Herr von Bis-
mark-Scbonhausen said that the Government did
not follow a Russian, but a Prussian policy. He
also stated that no foreign Powers had made re-
presentations to Prussia on the Polish question, and
that the statements of the Czas newspaper on that
subject were without any foundation.

The Liberal fractions in the Chamber have
brought forward a resolution to the effect that the
interest of Prussia demands that the Government
should not side with any party in the Polish ques-
tion, and that therefore neither of the contending
parties should enter Prussian territory without
being disarmed,

The Nord Deutsche Zettung of this evening says

T►he negotiations betwee❑ Prussia and Russia had
reference only to the insurrection in Poland, and not
to any settlement of the Polish question in general.
Much less also had these negotiations any bearing
upon general European policy.
No negotiations whatever have taken place be-
tween Prussia and Austria in reference to Poland.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of foreign sock on offer
here to-day ; but its general quality was inferior.
From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts
fresh up were again extensive. Their general condition,
however, was by no means first•rate. The arrivals from
Ireland and Scotland were limited. Good and prime breeds
commanded a steady sale, at Thursday's advance in the
quotations of 2d per Sibs. Otherwise, the beef trade was
in a sluggish state, at about stationary prices. A few very
superior Scots and crosses realised a shade over our general
top currency of 4s 10d per Blbs.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire comprised 2,700 shorthorns, Btc, ; from
other parts of England, 700 various breeds ; from Scotland,
30 Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, 140 oxen and
heifers.

We were again fairly supplied with sheep, mostly in
good condition. Nearly all breeds sold steadily, at
Thursday's improvement in value. The general top figure
for Downs was ss; but a few pens realised 5s 2d per 81bs.
Lambs—the supply of which was limited—sold briskly,
at 8d per Sibs above the rates current on Monday last.
Prices ranged from 53 8d to 6s 8d per albs.

Compared with our last report, no change hss taken place
in the value of any kind of hops, hnt the market has exhi-
bited considerable quietude. The prospects at the planta-
tions hive not varied. In several districts a good crop is
looked forward to, but in some parts there will certainly be
a limited growth. A parcel of new hops has been on offer,
and has been disposed of at £l2 per cwt. Last week's

ATROCIOUS ASSAULT ON A GIRL.—John William Fitz-
gerald, an engineer, about 30 years of age, was brought
before Mr, Woolrych charged with assaulting Mary Ann
Moore, a girl under 13 years of age.
It appeared that the girl had been sent by her mother on
an errand to the prisoner's, in William-street, Cannon-
street-road. The wife was from home, but the prisoner
was in his room, and he made improper overtures to the
girl, which she rejected; and he then pulled her about and
assaulted her with his hands in a gross manner. Tho girl
resisted and got away from him. Sbe was not hurt, but very
much alarmed, and immediately made known the base
conduct of the prisoner to her friends, who caused the
villain to be taken into custody.
The girl's evidence given at great length left no doubt
of the prisoner's intentions. He offered no violence to the
girl.
George Salmon Howe, a police-constable, No. 131 H,
said he took the prisoner into custody on Saturday even-
ing, and he denied what was alleged against him, and said
he was tipsy when the girl called upon him.
The prisoner, in defence, said he had no recollection of
what took place. He was very tipsy QII reaching home on
Saturday.
Mr. Woolrych—You have committed a gross assault on
this girl. You are sentenced to six weeks' imptisonment
and bard labour.
