ARTISTS' BENEVOLENT FUND,

The fifty-fourth anniversary of this excellent
institution was celebrated on Saturday by a dinner
at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street,
under the presidency of Mr. W. B. Beech, M.P.,
who was supported by Mr. David Roberts, R.A.,
Mr. George T. Doo, R.A., Mr. John H. Foley, R.A.,
and other artists and friends of the society.
The Artists' Fund was established in 1810, and
received a charter of incorporation from George IV.
in 1827. It consists of two separate and distinct
branches—the Artists' Annuity Fund, which is
raised and wholly supported by the contributions
of its members, and the Artists' Benevolent Fund,
for the relief of the widows and orphans of the
members of the annuity fund, which is supported
by the donations of the patrons of the fine arts and
artists, as well as by the annual contributions
of the members of the other funds. Since the for-
mation of the benevolent fund a sum of £24,721 had
been distributed in relieving widows and orphans of
British artists, and during the past year 53 widows
received annuities amounting to £765, and 15 or-
phans th© sum of £6l ss.
After the " Health of the Queen," and other
loyal and constitutional toasts had been drunk.

The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the toast of the even-
ing, " Prosperity to the Artists' Benevolent Fund,"
said that among the many societies which existed
for the relief of the distressed, and reflected so much
credit upon the country, there was none more emi-
nently characteristic, or more deserving the aid and
encouragement of every charitable person, than this
invaluable institution. The great good done by
the association was sufficiently vouched for by
the fact that during the year no less than.
53 widows of artists had received benefit
from its funds. Apart from the interest which the
public should feel in such an institution, it must be a.
matter of satisfaction to those who owed their sup-
port to the creations of their own hands to know
that those near and dear to them whom they left
behind would be provided for and secured against
want. Artists of eminence might think that they
were far removed from casualties that would plunge
themselves and families in distress, and the young
members of the profession might think that sickness
was off; but man had not at disposal his own des-
tiny, and it was surely better that in the hour of
health and prosperity they should make some pro-
vision against the dark days of adversity. He also
thought that those who were in the zenith of their
greatness should lend a helping hand to brother
artists less fortunate than themselves, or who were
struggling in their profession, by giving aid to this
society, whose funds, he could assure them, were
administered in a most economical and satisfactory

THE CASE OF MR. BISHOP.

The Marquis of NOIIMANBY said be bad given notice
that he would ask for the production of a despatch made by
Sir James Hudson on the 25th of February, which was
quoted by his noble friend (Earl Russell) as containing the
assurance on the part of the Piedmontese Cabinet that Mr.
Bishop would be liberated. He understood when he gave
notice that the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs would
have no objection to produce the despatch.
Earl RUSSELL said he was about to present to the
house, by command of her Majesty, extracts from the
despatch referred to by the noble marquis. The promise of
pardon to. Mr. Bishop by the Italian Government was to
be carried into effect on the first favourable opportunity,
and that promise was, as soon as brigandage was sup-
pressed and the state of the country would permit.
He had seen a report in the newspapers, but he had no
positive information on the point, that the ex-King of
Naples was about to quit Rome, and if that was so he had
no doubt it would go a great way to put down brigandage.
With respect to the health of Mr. Bishop, General Mar
mora had sent a medical gentleman to see Mr. Bishop,
and he had reported that that gentleman's health would not
suffer provided he was not subjected to any severe labour.
That o, inton had been sent to Turin, and he believed that
no fears need be entertained as to the treatment Mr. Bishop
would receive.

THE BRAZILS.

The Earl of MALMESBURY gave untie° that on Fri-
day next, in calling attention to our relations with the
Brazils, he should move for copies of any papers showing
on what grounds the Government of the Brazils resisted
the claims for £3,200 compensation.
THE WAR IN AMERICA.
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved for copies of
any report that may have been received from the Admiral
commanding her Majesty's squadron on the North Ameri-
can and West India station concerning the protection from
seizute or visitation afforded to British merchantmen by the
Ariadne and other of her Majesty's ships or gunboats or
otherwise, and asked what had been the result of the
remonstrances made to the United States Government by
her Majesty's Minister against the seizure of certain British
vessels, He dwelt with particular emphasis on the recent
condemnation of the Adela as contrary to all principles of
international law, and considered it was the duty of the
Government to demand her restoration. The noble marquis
contended the country ought to afford adequate protection
to her commercial marine, and denounced the seizure of
vessels bound to Matamoraa and Nassau, as a means of
monopolising the trade to the first mentioned place for the
benefit of New York shippers, a state of things which
ought not to be recognised.

THAMES.

A RIIFFIAN AND THIEF.—John Tighe alias Toy, an
Irish labourer, aged 30, was brought up on remand before
Mr. Woolrych, charged with stealing 31bs, of bacon from
the shop of Mr. Wm. Hunt, No. 131, High-street, Poplar,
and savagely assaulting George Palmer, the prosecutor's
assistant.

A few evenings since Mr. Palmer saw the prisoner take
a piece of bacon from his master's window-board and en-
deavour to conceal it under his coat, and, failing in that,
put his hands behind him. Mr, Palmer seized him, and
asked him what he had behind him, to which he made no
answer. A violent struggle took place, in the course of
which the prisoner backed himself against the window of
Mr. Edward Mcfllin, a printer, and not only destroyed
several panes of glass, but damaged and broke several
things inside the window. The prisoner continued the
struggle with Mr. Palmer, repeatedly struck him
and tore his shirt and neckerchief. Several
persons then went to the assistance of Mr. Palmer,
and the prisoner threw himself on the ground, and kicked
at him. A constable named Pickering, 230 K, also came
to the aid of Mr. Palmer, on which the prisoner took a large
clasp knife from his pocket, opened it, and made plunges at
every one within his reach. Fortunately he did not stab
any one, but, he inflicted serious injuries on Pickering, on
another policeman who was thrown, and also upon Mr.
Palmer. The prisoner was ultimately secured, with the
bacon in his possession.
. _ _

Pickering said the prisoner was convicted 11 years ago
for stealing lead and copper, and sentenced to six years'
penal servitude ; and since his return to his old quarters he
had been summarily convicted of larceny, and sentenced to
six months' imprisonment and hard labour. The prisoner
had been in custody en other occasions for robberies and
assaults.

The prisoner, in defence, admitted that he had been trans-
ported, but since the expiration of his sentence he had been
working hard in Mr. Green's ship building yard and other
places. He was very fond of a drop of drink, and unfor-
tunately when he was tipsy he did not know what he was
about. He had been terribly knocked about by eight or
nine of his countrymen, until he was " smothered in blood.''
That weakened his head, and when he had the " drop
taken" he was mad and did not know what he was about.
Mr. Woolrych said he could not do otherwise than send
this case for trial. The prisoner had been sentenced to six
years penal servitude, and on the 10th December, 1861,was
summarily convicted and sentenced to six months' impri-
sonment and hard labour for stealing a tile of copper. He
was afraid the prisoner was an incorrigible thief, who had
not taken warning by the previous convictions. He should
commit the prisoner for trial on two charges, for stealing
the bacon, and also for assaulting Mr. Palmer.

BOROUGH HOP.

Tho accounts from the plantations are very favourable,
and the bine makes rapid progress. Our market, conse-
quently, is less active. Good and fine qualities, however,
are in moderate demand, at full quotations, but inferior
produce moves off heavily, and prices have a downward
tendency. Last week's import was large for the time of
year, ♦)z.— 47 bales from Rotterdam, 48 Boulogne, 22
Hamburg, 637 bales and 496 pockets from Antwerp, 510
pockets from Jersey, and 255 bales from New York.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.
Old potatoes move off heavily, at drooping prices. York-
shire flukes are quoted at 130 s to 150 s, and other kinds at
70s to 100 s per ton. The supply of new produce continues
to increase, and home-grown commands a fair average
sale, at from 8s to 12s per cwt. The import last week was
6,856 baskets from Dunkirk, 6,216 Rotterdam, 12 tons from
Guernsey, 70 baskets from Bordeaux, and 23 baskets from
Boulogne.

JUSTICE AS IT WAS.

Sixty years ago Governor Wall was executed for
the murder of Sergeant Armstrong at Goree. Wall
was a man of family and fortune, who had done
good service as a soldier, and 20 years had elapsed
since the commission of his crime; but all availed
him not. He had inflicted an illegal punishment,
which had caused the death Of a man, for which he
himself suffered the death of a felon. In those
days did they think less of life than we do now, or
was it that they thought more of the life of an in-
nocent man than of the life of a guilty man ? Cer-
tain it is that Wall had no sympathy, In recording
his fate the Annual 'Register for 1802 observes that
" British justice has manifested in two memo-
rable events its wisdom, it's purity, "and its
impartiality—namely, in the punishment of mu-
tineers, and a no less exemplary execution
",f a commander for violating the delegated
authority of his Sovereign in ordering an illegal
punishment which caused the death of one of those
over whom ho was placed." Twenty years- hence
will anything like this be written of the manifesta-
tion of British justice, tardy but sure, in the punish-
ment of those concerned in the death of Lilley P
There bad recently been a signal punishment of
mutineers, men blown from the mouths of guns,
where Lilley suffered, but retribution halts where
the offenders are in high places of authority. Wall
had no screen. There was in his case no shuttle-
cock responsibility to be battiedored from one to
another. He was not permitted to escape the halter
upon the plea " Thou canst not say I did it." He
averred, and with some ground, mutinous conduct,
and put forth the sanction of a sort of drumhead
court•martial, but the fact that a man had died
of a flogging under his direction inflicted without
legal warrant was enough, and he was found guilty.
Armstrong was really not so much to be pitied as
poor Lilley. He had only his own pains to bear,
and not for long. He had not the shame of seeing
a wife suffering from diarrhoea and compelled to
perform the functions of nature under the eye of a
sentinel changed from hour tohour, rude witnesses,
fresh and fresh, posted within three feet of her bed.
Armstrong was not killed by inches. He was not
shut up for more than a month in a sort of oven,
where, deprived of air and exercise, and subjected
to every humiliation, apoplexy was the certain fate
of a man of a plethoric habit. Armstrong, more
fortunate, died of the speedy consequences of at
excessive beating with a rope, for which his tor
mentor also died of a rope, gentleman and highly
connected as he was. But
,Wall had no Generals
Farrell and Sir Wm. Mansfield to cover him 'and
bear him harmless with their misunderstandings
and blunders.—Examiner.

evergreens of American literature, but a little out of the

isly resembling " he e

CHIEGE OF MANSLAUGHTER.--Richard Pelham, a
labouring man, was placed at the bar before Mr. Selfe,
charged with the manslaughter of Charles Cochen.
Edwin F Gale, 12, Commercial-road, Pimlico—On Sa-
turday, a little after seven, the prisoner and another man
were fighting in West-square. The man he was fighting
had hit him in the breast, and that ended the fight, which
lasted six or seven minutes. They were going to have
something to drink friendly, when people around them
urged them to fight it out, and they fought three or four
rounds. Both fell, and the deceased caught hold of the
prisoner by the legs and pulled him a few yards. As de-
ceased had hold of the prisoner he was pulled away. He
then stood up, but immediately afterwards dropped down
dead.
Frederick Bayless gave a nearly similar account of the
transaction.
Henri Peleto, a young man, was put forward to account
for the transaction. He said— After we had all done work-
ing we went to the Rising Sun, in the Commercial-road, on
Saturday night, and began larking. The prisoner was there
when deceased and the rest of us went in, and prisoner and
deceased got a sky .larking, and in sparring the prisoner's
nose bled. He then went and sat down, and when he
got up again they began fighting. The landlady came and
said she would have no fighting there, and then they went
our and fought.
Mr. Selfe—Did any of you try to stop the fight?
Witness—We all tried to stop it, but others urged them
on. In the last round both fell—the prisoner was under.
Mr. Selfe—How long did they light last?

Witness—A quarter of an hour.
Mr. Selfe—And no police came I'
Witness—No. The sergeant came up at six, and Inspec-
tor Howard apprehended the prisoner aft'er'wards at his
residence.
Prisoner was remanded on bail until next Tuoadday next.

ARTISTS' BENEVOLENT FUND,

The fifty-fourth anniversary of this excellent
institution was celebrated on Saturday by a dinner
at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen-street,
under the presidency of Mr. W. B. Beech, M.P.'
who was supported by Mr. David Roberts, R..A.,
Mr. George T. Doo, 8.A., Mr. John H. Foley, R.A.►
and other artists and friends of the society.
The Artists' Fund was established in 1810, arid
received a charter of incorporation from George IV.
in 1827. It consists of two separate and distinct
branches—the Artists' Annuity Fund, which is
raised and wholly supported by the contributions
of its members, and the Artists' Benevolent Fund,
for the relief of the widows and orphans of the
members of the annuity fund, which is supported
by the donations of the patrons of the fine arts arid
artists, as well as by the annual contributions
of the members of the other funds. Since the for-
mation of the benevolent fund a sum of £24,721 hecif
been distributed in relieving widows and orphans °
British artists, and during the past year 63 widow`
received annuities amounting to £765, and 16 or-
phans th© sum of £6lss.
After the " Health of the Queen," and other
loyal and constitutional toasts had been drunk.

The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the toast of the even-
ing, "Prosperity to the Artists' Benevolent Fund,"
said that among the many societies which existed
for the relief of the distressed, and reflected so much
credit upon the country, there was none more emi-
nently characteristic, or more deserving the aid and
encouragement of every charitable person, than this
Invaluable institution. The great good done by
the association was sufficiently vouched for bY
the fact that during the year no less than
53 widows of artists had received benefit
from its funds. Apart from the interest which the
public should feel in such an institution, it must be
matter of satisfaction to those who owed their Our
port to the creations of their own hands to kner
that those near and dear to them whom they leiV
behind would be provided for and secured against
want. Artists of eminence might think that they'
were far removed from casualties that would plunge
themselves and families in distress, and the young
members of the profession might think that sickneso
was off; but man had not at disposal his own des'
tiny, and it was surely better that in the hour of
health and prosperity they should make some pro
vision against the dark days of adversity. He algal"
thought that those who were in the zenith of their
greatness should lend a helping hand to brother
artists less fortunate than themselves, or who were
struggling in their profession, by giving aid to this
society, whose funds, he could assure them, were
administered in a most economical and satisfactory
