The Visit of the Prince and Princess of

Wales to Oxford.

Oxford is all astir with preparations for the re-
ception of the Prince and Princess of Wales on the
16th inst. The University authorities, the under-
graduates, the town council, and the inhabitants
generally are all making the necessary arrange-
ments, and there is every prospect that the ancient
and loyal city will present a scene of gaiety and
exuberance unparalleled since the installation of
the Duke of Wellington, and scarcely inferior to
the visit, forty- nine years ago, of the Prince Regent,
the Emperor Alexander, the King of Prussia, and
other celebrities. State etiquette, as well as the
traditions of the university, prevented the bestow-
ment of any academical distinction upon his Royal
highness while he was in residence, but the univer-
sity authorities have taken the earliest opportunity
of inviting him to pay a visit to his Alma Mater,
and receive from their hands the highest honour it
is in their power to bestow. The proceedings in
the Sheldonian Theatre, where his Royal Hignuess
will receive the honorary degree of D C.L., are,
therefore, being looked forward to with unusual in•
terest. The Earl of Derby, the Chancellor of the
University, and a numerous end distinguished com-
pany, are expected to be present. On the following
day (Wednesday), the Enccenia, or a commemora-
tion of Founders and Benefactors, will take place
in the Theatre, when his Royal Highness, accom-
panied by the Princess of Wales, will take his place
amongst the doctors, and degrees will be conferred
upon several distinguished pf rsottages, including
the Duke of Newcastle, the Right Hon. Edward
Cardwell, M.P., Sir Hugh Cairns, M.P., Sir S•;af-
ford Nortncote, M.P., Mr. Seymour Fi!zgerald, &c.
A grand collation, given by the University, will
take place in the library of All Souls' College, and
their Royal Highnesses are then expected to pro-
ceed to the Freemasons' fete in Worcester College
gardens. The Prince and Princess will subsequently
witness some University aquatics on the river Isis,
being conveyed from Folly Bridge to the University
barge in a new and handsome boat now in course
of construction by Messrs. Salter, the well-known
boat-builders of Oxford and Wandsworth. Later
in the evening the royal party will be entertained
by the Vice-Chancellor at a grand banquet in
Exeter College, and will honour with their presence
a grand ball given by the undergraduates of Christ
Church, of which college the Prince of Wales is a
member. A very distinguished circle will be in-
vited to meet their Royal Highnesses at Exeter
College, including the Duke of Cambridge, the
Early of Derby, Mr. Gladstone, the Duke of Buc-
cleuch, and the newly-made doctors. The city is
already fast filling with visitors, and the demand
for lodgings is greater than has been known for
many years.

The Countess of Derby has issued cards for a
select evening party to have the honour to meet their
Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales after
dinner on the 24th inst., on which day their Royal High-
nesses have accepted an invitation to dine with the Earl
and Countess of Derby.
The Prince of Orange honoured the Countess
(Dow.) of Jersey with his presence at dinner on Tuesday,
at her ladyship's residence in Berkeley-square. A distin-
guished Circle met his royal highness.
The Prince of Manganelli and Chevalier Rai
ziondo Pettini and suite have arrived at the Brunswick,
7errayn-street, from Italy.
The Emperor l\Ltpoieon's "Life of Caner" is at
last in the printer's hands, the Fresse assures us. It will
fill three volumes. The firs- is ready, the second is in pro-
gress, and both will be published together, The third will
appear afterwards.

CHATTERTON'S PAUPER GRAVE.—More to the
left, on the site now taken up by that dingy, Wt.
lighted market of Parringdon, provided as an asylum for
the sweet smells and pleasant sighla of Fleet Market, until
1825 was the pauper burial-ground of St. Andrew's, Hol-
born. None of our readers can be ignorant of the terribly
truthful picture of a City graveyard drattn by Diekens
in " Bleak House." The spot in question might be
described in the same Words. It had nothing to assi•
milate it to our modern fancy cemeteries ; a few fee
of uneven earth, which no carellul spade had ever been
at the pains to level ; no gravestones, hot even a sin •
gle unpointed stake, to indicate the coffin below; but
here a brick, covered with groan mould, and there a
cluster of nettles or rank weeds ; and, commonly close
under the wall, a deep, open pi.., y,.w, lug until its full tale
of dead was completed. A few baa.'u.s of rubbish cover
it from notice. A sad trageey was et—cted in this neigh-
bourhood ; and a suicide's grave, dug amidst the moulder-
ing remains of sin, pain, and want., was to confer a dismal
notoriety on this spot which none of its former occupants
had Given it. The parish register records—" Aug. 28,1770.
—William (Thomas) Chatterton [with 'the poet' added
afterwards], interred in the graveyard of Shoe Lane Work-
house." These few words are pregnant with awful inte-
rest, and include with bitter brevity the whole biography of
a gifted but hapless son of genius, who crowded into an
exi-tence of 18 years more of intellectual promise than ever
fell to the lot of one individual in so brief a period.—Lon-
don Scenes and London People.
VISIT OF THE DUKE OF SAXE-COBURG TO

that its marked inclination towards Prussia, the military
convention which it has concluded with that state, and the
decided attitude which it has assumed on many internal
questions, have gradually alienated the court of Vienna
and the coalitation of Wurtsburg. The visit which the
duke paid to Dresden in the month of February was the
first step taken with a view to a union. It is with a feeling
of satisfaction that the duke is now expected at Vienna,
where the importance of his ersonal influence is justly ap.
predated."

LAW INTELLIGENCE---This Day,

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulbuin.)
IN RE PEARSON.

The bankrupt waa a shipowner, &c., in Liverpool and
London, and to-day was appointed for his last examination.
Mr. Lawrence appeared for the assignees, and Mr. C, E,
Lewis for the bankrupt, and an application was made for a
further adjournment, as the accounts were very voluminous,
but were in a forward state of preparation.
His Honour said there had been frequent adjournments.
Mr. Lawrence said the nature of the accounts were E uch
that no blame could attach to the baLktupt.
His Honour granted a further adjournment for six weeks.

IN RE FRENCH.

Mr. Lawrance applie,l is the case of this bankrupt, a
bow.owner, at Chatham, for the leave of the Court to ap-
point an accountant. Mr. Registrar Winslow had certified it
to be a case in which the assistance of an accountant was
desirable.

Mr. C. E Lewis read an affidavL by the bankrupt,
showing that a ve,y large suns of money had already been
paid by' the official ass-gnee, and as there were 800 debtors
to :the estate :the bankrupt's assistance was principally
required to realise the amount due.

His Honour asked why Mr. Registrar Winslow had not
made an order?

Mr. Lawrance said the appointment must be sanctioned
by the Court.

His Honour—Have you agreed as to the accountant ?
Mr. Lawrance—Oh, yes, Mr. Jos Hart, of Moorgate-
street.

His Honour —Lut it be so.
IN RE 'VIVIAN.
_

In this case his Honour said that there was a deficiency
in the accounts of £l,OOO. The bankrupt had said that he
had sworn to it without reading it—accountants made
figures, but not facts, and to them it was not material, as
they did not have to swear to them—the only course in
this case was to hdjoutn ihe case sine die, with leave for the
bankrupt o c me up when he had amended his accounts to
the satisfaction of the Court, and protection would be
granted for two months.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT-•This Day.

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.)

Albert Herschman, 26, a merchant, was indicted, that he
having been duly adjudged a bankrupt did within three
months of the filing of the petition, un!awfully obtain on
credit goods to the amount of £lOO, and fraudulently dis-
posing of his estate with intent to defraud his creditors.
The prisoner carried on business in Moorgate-street as a
general merchant, anti was in the habit of trading with
various mercantile houses.in the City, and transmitting the
goods for disposal to Hamburg. He evidently went to that
country himself, reporting that he was proceeding to Scot.
land. The petitioning creditors and assigness are Messrs.
Moses, Son, and Davis, to whom he was largely indebted,
the prosecution being instituted by the other creditors in
conjunction with them.

The case is devoid of public interest, and will occupy the
entire day.

NE W COURT.
(Before the Recorder.)

James Johnson, 22, a turner, and Henry Grimshaw, 23,
labourer, remanded from last session, were indicted with
breaking into and entering the dwelling-house of William
Ring, and stealing three beds, value £2O, and further for
stealing 13 yards of carpet. The prisoners were also charged
with Benjamin Everett, who was convicted on Tuesday of
receiving a quantity of boots and shoes, knowing the pro-
perty to have been stolen.
It was ore of the numerous cases arising out of the dis-
closures made by a man named Yates, a notorious receiver
of stolen goods, and who was convicted at this court and is
now undergoing his sentence ; but, with a view of obtain
ing a remission of the sentence, he had given up the names
of the principals in various robberies. The evidence against
the prisoners rested entirely on the approver and accom-
plice Yates, and as the evidence was not corroborated,
The Recorder directed an acquttal.

Benjamin Everett was then indicted for stealing 100 pair
boots and shoes, NO yards of Elastic web, and 300 uppers,"
but no evidence was offered.

Mr. Montague Chambers, Q.C., then addressed the Cour
in reference to the case, in which the prisoner Everett was
convicted, and said scorn inquiries that had been made since,
he was in a position to prove that the portion of the evi-
dence given at the trial of the approver Yates was untrue.
It was most remarkable that he had fixed the 18th of
December as the day on which he had the transaction re-
lating to the robbery of Mr. Lyons, whereas at the very
time he was himself a prisoner in Horsemonger-lane
Gaol, showing a clear alibi had he been in a position
at the trial to prove the fact. Had he known so no doubt
the jury would have come to a different conclusion, He felt
it his duty to bring the matter before the court, and
pressed to call in Keene, the Governor of the prison.
Mr. Keene was then called and proved that Yates was
in his custody on the 18th December.
The Recorder said ho would look carefully through the
depositions before passing sentence, and to-morrow morn-
ing he would also have evidence as to character.

Another indictment in the same series was then p-o-
-ceeded into against Benjamin Close, James Dean, William
Winning, Caroline Close, and Caroline Dean, who were
charged with stealil.g a quantity of wearing apparel from
the dwelling-house of Robert Cox.
Benjamin Close pleaded guilty, the rest of the prisoners
not guilty.

The evidence did not sustain the charge in this case, and
the four prisoners were acquitted.

Benjamin Close was then put forward for sentence. The
police produced a number of housebreaking implements
found in his room, and alto a number of previous con-
victions.

The Recorder sentenced him to six years' penal servitude.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

SINGULAR CASE ---P GENTLEMAN CHARGED WITS
DISORDERLY CONDUCT,—ALLEGED ILL-TREATMENT BY
A POLICE-CONSTABLE —Mr. Charles Danvers, gentleman,
of 12, Park-lane, was charged before Mr. Knox with being
drunk and riotous in Piccadilly.
M'lntosh, 158 C, deposed to seeing the defendant in
Piccadilly with a prostitute, pulling her about ire an indecent
manner, making her scream at the top of her voice, and
using indecent language. As the defendant would not leave
when requested he took him into custody. The defendant
was drunk.

Defendant—l deny using any other language than should
be used by a gentleman. Cannot a gentleman stand and
speak to a female in the streets without being dragged to
the station ? I had had a little to drink, I admit, but was
not drunk. I have a gentleman in court who will speak to
my charaLtei • Instead of my using bad language, I charge
the constable with doing so, and treating me very ill.
Mr. Knox—The inspector who took the charge shall be
sent for to state the condition you were in when taken to
• the station.

Sergeant Collings (who took the charge) said defendant
was drunk—obstinately drunk.

Defendant—l am in a position to prove that I was not
drunk. I had been to my solicitor's, in Lincoln's-inn, and
was engaged there till late in the evening on business. I
wish emphatically to state that I never made use of the bad
language imputed to me, and emphatically to deny that I
was drunk.
Mr. Knox—Send for the gentleman, then.
1130,fendant—As he is a solicitor, most probably he will be
away from his office. I grant I was a little excited, for .if
anything like brute force was ever used, it was used to-
wards me. 'rho constable not only used insulting language
towards me, but he ill-treated me, and I feel hurt, I think
a gentleman should-be treated like a gentleman.
Mr. Knox—l have the positivo evidence of the police that
you were drunk—the sergeant says obstinately drunk. I,
therefore, infer that you did not well know what you were
about. If you do not intend to send for the gentleman I
shall decide the case by fining you los., or seven days, and
if you like to indict the constable for perjury you can do so.
The defendant paid the fine, still denying the charge
against him.

but, deeming the wound of a most serious nature, recom-
mended that the man should be taken to an hospital, and
Sergeants Kay and Stephens lost no time in conveying him
in a cab to the Middlesex Hospital, where he received every
attention at the hands of the medical officers of that insti-
tution. On inquiring at the hospital this morning, Sergeant
Kay was informed that Litnebeer was in a very low state,
and that there were but the smallest hopes of his surviving.
