aIPPS V. SIPE'S AND HIJME.

Dr, Spinks said he was instructed on the part of the
petitioner to ask that his lordship would not deliver judg-
ment in this ea e he-trd Wore him last week—in fact
to postpone his judgment, as an application would be made
to him in Chambers on the subject of a letter which had
been omitted in the correspondence on the hearing.
The Judge said he did not think he should be prepared
to give judgment on Tuesday.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN EXACTING COMPLAINANT.—A SAD AFFAIR.—
James Quinlivan, of 102, High-street, Camden-town, having
the appearance of a mechanic, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with assaulting Mr. George Foot, of 66, Great
Portland -street. eating-house keeper.
The complainant said the defendant entered his house
that morning about 1 o'clock, and called for some refresh-
,ments, which were served him, and on his (complainant)
asking for the money, the defendant struck him on the
head, but did Rot hurt him. He then called a constable,
and gave him into custody.
Sergeant Franklin said that the man was labouring
under excitement at the time, in consequence of his wife
having died suddenly that evening.
It appears that the wife of the defendant was employed
at the London Crystal Palace, and that on leaving her
home in the evening to go to her employ, she arranged
with her husband (the defendant) to meet her at the build-
ing, and in about 15 minutes after she had parted with him
she was brought dead.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said complainant and defendant had better
see whether they could not settle the matter, and after a
few minutes it was stated that the complainant had de-
manded 10s., and that defendant had paid it.

MARKETS—This Day.

HAY MARKETS.

SMITIMELD.—Meadow hay, £2 Os to £4 5s Od ; clover,
do., £3 lOs to £5 10s ; and straw, £ll2s to £1 16s per load.
A slow demand.

CUMBERLAND.—Mett4OW hay, £2 Os to £4 53 ; clover,
£3 10s to £5 lOs Od ; and straw, £1 12s to £1 16s per load.
Trade dull.

WHITECHAPEL.—Meadow hay, £2 Os to £4 ss; clove,
do., £3 lOs to 45 108 ; and straw, £1 124 to £1 160 per load.
An inactive trade.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—There has been a fair amount of business trans-
acted, and prices have in most instances been well sustained.
COFFEE.—The demand has been steady for good and fine
descriptions of colonial, and full rates have been realised.
Inferior qualities, however, have ruled a shade cheaper.
SUGAR.—The dealings in all descriptions have been ex-
ceedingly limited, but good and fine grocery qualities sup-
port previous rates. Refining sorts, however, are a shade
cheaper. In the Refined Market dry goods support previ-
ous quotations.
RICE.— Only a limited business has been recorded, and
the few bargains entered into have been at about previ-
ous quotations.
SALTPETRE.—Business has been exceedingly dull, and
prices have tended d iwnwards.
TALLOW.—Rather more activity has prevailed, owing to
an increased demand for home consumption. P,Y.C. on
the spot is quoted 44s 9d ; March delivery, 45s to 45s 3d ;
and 46s 6d for last three m nths' delivery.

DENMARK.

After the meeting of the Council on Monday the
20th, when the dr Its for the documents to be laid
before the Holstein Chamber was approved by the
King, the Ministers had the honour of dining with
his Majesty. The Premier, Mr. Hr.ill, proposed a
toast for the King, reminding the party that it was
the 15th anniversary of his Majesty's ascending the
hr°lle, and calling attaition to the important place
which his i\l"i',sty's reign would fill in the annals
of the country,

His INl,jesty replied—" You have announced that
it is 1.5 scars since I Evsurned the reins of govern_
merit. ; 15 years have passed since 1 promised
solemnly my late father and king, on his dying
bed, that 1 would make his beloved Th:nnaark
happy. lam conscious of having always endea-
voured so to do, arid I will continue to my last it,
the same path."

The proposed address to the King was read a
first time on Thursday by a maiority of 4.0 to 2 in
the Upper House (the Emds-thing for Denmark
i)roper), and
evening wabfinv,ll3. adopted
Ci a 3 es to 2 nays. It will lite presented by the
Speak. r, and two members chosen in the chamber.
On both occasionsthe Miiiisterial bench was empty.

As the Danish Parliament has been stripped of its
former rights, and has now authority only in the
special affairs of the Danish Kingdom, it does
not necessarily follow that a conflict between a
separate representation and the advisers of the crown
will immediately lead to a change of ministry.
Experienced politicians opine that we need not
expect a crisis, unless the Rigs.raad, the assembly
for the Danish Realm, should carry still further the
opposition it exhibited in its last session. Still, the
vote of the Lands-thing has made the situation some-
what precarious, and it will become still more so
shortly for the Holstein chambers, which meet on
Saturday, will certainly do all in their power to
break up the whole Dauish state.

CELEBRATION of the TERCENTENARY of
the BIRTH of SHAKSPE ARE, at Stratford-upon-
Avon. The Tercentenary Committee (of which. Sir Robert
N. C. Hamilton. Bart., K.C.8.. is Chairman) are now receiv-
ing SUBSCRIPTIONS, and they may also be paid to the
account of the Tercentenary Committee, at the Stourbridge
and Kidderminster, or Warwick and Leamington Banks,
Stratford-upon-Avon ; Messrs. Greenway, Smith, and
Greenway, 'Warwick ; or their londcin agents, Messrs.
Smith, Payne, and Co , Messrs. Hanburys and Co., or Messrs.
Glyn and Co., bankers, London.
The Tercentenary Committee, in submitting the subscrip-
tion list to the nation, most earnestly appeal to the admirers
of Shakspeare for their aid and assistance. The Committee
rest their claims upon the ground that Stratford is not only
the birthplace of Shakspeare. but the centre of attraction to
all admirers of the great Poet's works, and that it was his
home, the town he loved, and where he lived and died.

THAMES.

THREE SLIGHT TAPS ON THE HEAD.—Catherine Dris-
coll, a bloated and dissipated woman, of violent temper, in
appearance 60 years of age, but who only owned to 30, was
brought before Mr, Partridge charged with violently
assaulting her husband, Cornelius Driscoll, with a poker.
The prosecutor, a little Irish tailor, as pale as a spectre,
came to the station-house in Poplar last night with the
blood streaming from wounds on the head. He presented
a frightful appearance, and said his wife had murthered
him wid a poker. A constable, named Henry Hayward,
401 K, was despatched with the poor fellow to Bury's-
court, Well-street, Poplar, where ho found Mrs. Driscoll
quarrelling with a neighbour, The constable charged the
prisoner with wounding her husband, and she said she had
only given him " three slight taps on the head." She was
taken into custody. The poor fellow, her husband, said
when he came home " his old woman" was drunk and
quarrelling, and when he expostulated with her she
" bullyragged him and bate him wid a poker, and ho was
kict quite. The evidence of other witnesses went to show
that the prisoner had committed a violent and unprovoked
assault on the complainant, who lost a good deal of blood,
and whose head was covered with a surgical plaister.

in her treai went of the child, and en those grotto s he com-
mended her to the merciful couideratien of the jury.
irpresenting the case t,, tue jury, ad.
vested Justicetothereni3Ydei''' in
reagaot the child and to its being;—adopt-
ing the language of the prisoner herself when before the
coroner—"a little weakly creature which a ought gust of
uiad might blow over." It was importan', he said, that
they should bear in mind the state of the child and its age.
It was born before marriage; but any one would:think that
that would be far from sufficient to overcome a mo-
ther's maternal instincts towards her own offspring. On
the othcv hand, there was evidence that the prisoner's gene-
ral behaviour towards the child was unkind. Nobody pre •
tended that the poisoner intended to kill the child, but she
was charged witbrAmanslaughtcr, and it became necessary to
inquire what was the cause of death. According to the medi
cal man, the child did not die from the effects of the cold
bath, however improper or cruel, but from the blow on the
temple, which, he said, undoubtedly was the cause of the
extravasation of blood on the brain, all the other organs be-
ing healthy. The extravasation on the brain being the cause
of death, the question arose was that extravasation caused
by a blow inflicted by the prisoner after she had taken the
child upstairs, or by a fall ? If they believed she had given
it a blow, and that that was the cause of death, she was
guilty of manslaughter ; but there was no direct evidence
that she had, and they were not to convict on mere suspicion.
The jury, after some considerable deliberation, returned a
verdict of Not Guilty.
The prisoner was then tried on the same evidence, and
convicted of an aggravated assault upon the child by forcing
jt into the bath.
Sentence was deferred.

ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's-inn-road,
in the immediate vicinity of the Great Northern Rail- ,
way Terminus, at King's-cross.
Patron—The QUEEN.
President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCII, K.G.
Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq.
This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom-
panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.

KEATING'S PERSIAN INSECT DESTROY-
ING POWDER, for which a Prize Medal was awarded
to the Producer at the International Exhibition, 1862,
This Powder is quite harmless to an,mal life, but is un-
rivalled in destroying Fleas, Bugs, Flies, Cockroaches,
Beetles, Gnats, Mosquitos, hloths in furs, and every other
species of Insect.
Sportsmen will find this an invaluable remedy for destroy-
ing Fleas in their Dogs, as also Ladies for their Pet Dogs.
Being the original importer of this now invaluable article,
which has found so great a sale that it has tempted others to
vend a so-called article, the public are therefore cautioned to
observe that the packets of the Genuine Powder bear the
autogragh Of THOMAS KEATING

DEATH OF JACOB GRIMM.

This celebrated German writer, who, in conjunc-
tion with his late brother William, has been so
long well known, not only in Germany, but
throughout all Europe, died on Sunday evening
last at Berlin, after a short illness. He was born on
January 4, 1785, and had therefore reached his 79th
year. Although he sought comparative retirement
after the death of his brother, he was indefatigable
up to his last moment in carrying out the objects to
which he had devoted his long and useful life; and
with patriotic self-devotion his last hours were
spent, not in earning now fame by the continuation
of those works which were so peculiarly his own,
but in the preparation of his great German dic-
tionary. Jacob Grimm, like many others, had
difficulties to contend with in the outset of his
career. When he commenced the trade of author-
ship, Augustus William Schlegel looked upon an-
cient German literature as in some degree his own
domain, and did not treat the young beginner with
any degree of friendship, regarding him almost as
an usurper, and found terrible fault with his etymo-
logy. But a change soon came over the feelings of
Schlegel as to his countryman, for afterwards he
never spoke or wrote of him without expressing the
highest opinion of his talents, and he once said—
" I cannot name him without expressing my admi-
ration of his greatness." His loss will be irre•
parable in more than one sense, for he was honoured
and esteemed in Germany not less as a man than as
a scholar, and the tranquil spirit by which he was
actuated, manifested itself in the kindly nature of
his writings. In politics he took the Liberal side
—not to say the freethinking side—and his loss will
be felt by many German journals, with the con-
ductors of which he was on terms of valued amity.
It is to be regretted that the great national German
dictionary on which he was engaged has not reached
beyond the word " Fromm ;" but, from the ample
materials left by the deceased, !here is every hope
that the work will be concluded in as satisfactory a
manner as that in which it was commenced.

LEWES SHEEP FAlR.—.This annual fair, which i 0
the largest and most important of this description
held in the county of Sussex, took place on Monday on the
Downs overlooking the town of Lewes, and brought together
a large concourse of persons bent on business and pleasure.
Tho average number of sheep sent to this fair for some year°
back has been about 30,000, on one occasion recently the
number having been 36,000 ; but this year, owing to a varlet,'
of causes, the supply fell considerably short of this, null
24,000 being penned. For the most part, however, the
sheep were in first-rate condition. There was a large at'
tendance of fiockmasters from all parts of the county, be'
sides many dealers who had come from distant grazing dies
tricts. At the commencement of the fair rather stiff priori;
were asked by the sellers, which had the effect of check-
ing sales to some extent, as the purchasers had evidently
made up their minds to act with caution. Finding
it of no use, however, the buyers gave way, and a large
number of sheep changed hands at a comparatively big"
figure. The prices for ewes, in which a brisk trade was
done, varied from 30s. to 475. 61, although one exceptional
lot was purchased so low as 275. per head. Lambs were 10
great request, and commanded higher prices than have been
obtained at this fair for ten years previously, they ranging
from 245. to 363. each. There was a good supply of ratotio
for letting and hire, for which the demand was active, and
they moved off at prices ranging from 9 to 15 guineas Per
head. There was a tolerably fair supply of lean stock and
horses, but they did not appear to be much in request. A
drove of about 100 Irish heifers met with a ready sale, at
prices averaging about ten guineas each. Several smart
showers of rain fell during the day, but this did not inter-
fere with business to any material extent.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CArrfoN TO CABMEN.—For a long time past great
complaints have been made of the number of cabmen loiter-
ing and causing an obstruction in Coventry-street, &c., and
several of the offenders have been summoned to this court
by the police. At first Mr. Knox fined the defendants 3s.
and 2s. costs, but, as the number of defendants summoned
rather increased than diminished, Mr. Knox raised the
fine to ss. and costs. The increased fine failing to check
the nuisance, Mr. Knox imposed a fine of 10s. and costs,
and now the worthy magistrate has expressed his intention,
finding that things are going on just the same, to fine all
defendants 20s. and costs. This will be a great boon to the
honest and well conducted cabmen, who ara prevented
getting off the stand on which ho has been for hours,
sometimes owing to the other cabmen, who go creeping
about, picking up all the fares.

Owing to the recent advance in the price of cotton

Alexandra Park, Wood-green, Hornsey, where they will
be erected as soon as the preparatory works can be corn

TILE GREAT EASTERN.—It is currently reported
that this ship is to be sold by auction.
As one of the watchmen, named Marchand, em-
ployed on the Ardennes railway, between Lougivy
and Cons-la- G rand vine, was going his rounds three nights
since, he discovered an iron bar laid across the rails. Con-
tinuing his e.xamination, he found that several pieces of
wood and stone had also been laid on the rails at intervals
for a considerable distance. But for this discovery a serious
accident must have happened, as the lino there runs stens
an embankment nearly 40 feet in height.
