THE GLAMATOR.=COLLISION.

This was a cause of collision, instituted at the suit of the
master and owner of the Agnes against the owner of the
American vessel ,Gladiator, belonging to New York, and
bound from that place to London at the time of the collision,
which was stated to have taken place near Cowes, about the
11th of March last. The American owner had appeared
under protest, upon the ground that, in conformity with
the 6th George IV., a licensed pilot not having been taken
on board, and the vessel continuing in his charge at the
time of the accident, prima fade he was the only person
responsible ; and that, therefore, until the opposite party
had alleged and proved that blame attached to the master
or crew, the owner of the American was not compellable to
appear absolutely. The reply to that protest on the part
of the Agnes was, that a protest was a denial of the juris-
diction of the Court on the subject matter of the cause ;
that the protest contained many mere questions of fact,
which could only be decided upon the whole case ; and
that the 'other-matters were questions of law which were
dependent upon the facts, and might not at all arise in
the suit.

The question now came on upon this protest, which was
supported by Dr. ADDAMS, and opposed by Dr. Nicitor..L.
Sir J. Nicitour.. must overrule the protest, and assign
the American owner to appear absolutely, and he must also
give the costs of the pelition.

THE HOWARD.-SALVAGE.

This was a claim for salvage, on account of services ren-
dered to the Howard, an American, of 398 tons, by the
steam-vessel George IV., of 122 horse power.
Sir J. NictioLL on Saturday, or on the bye-day, would
declare the amount of salvage which be should decree.

INSOLVENTS' COURT.-TUESDAY.

Mr. Lewis Bernard Sapio, the well-known vocalist, ap-
plied upon his petition to be discharged under the Act. .An
opposition had been entered, but no creditor appeared to
oppose the discharge. His application was supported by
Mr. Cooke, with whom was Mr. Thomas.

The CHIEF COMMISSIONER—Why did you make your-
self liable, Mr. Sapio, for the debts of other persons ?
Mr. Sapio accepted bills, to save his mother from being
arrested.

The CHIEF COMMISSIONER—AIi, but you Should not
have done so. •

It appeared that Mr. Sapio had-been arrested by a money
collector named Fell. He swore he owed him the money
for which he had been arrested.

The COURT having cautioned Mr. Sapio not to make
himself in future liable for the debts of other persons, or-
dered him to be discharged.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT,

OLD COURT.
At ten. o'clock yesterday Mr. Justice PATTESON and
Mr. Baron GURNEY took their seats on the Bench.
James Brown, aged 27, James Hawkins, aged 26, and
Joseph SwinArd, aged 19, were indicted for burglariously
breaking into the dwelling-house of Mr. John Pearson, and
stealing therefrom some articles of plate and other articles,
his property.
Emerson, a police constable of the V division, on the
night in question, was on duty in Battersea-fields. About
a quarter past one o'clock he saw the three prisoners toge-
ther, and about ten minutes afterwards witness saw Swinford
opposite to the prosecutor's houie, and he asked the pri-
soner what was he doing there, and what had become of his
companions ? The prisoner replied he had lost his way to
Chelsea, and had missed his companions. Witness then
directed him ; but shortly afterwards he saw the three pri-
soners together going in a contrary way to Chelsea. Wit-
ness went after them, and while he was making inquiries of
them he observed Brown to throw something away into a
hedge. The prisoners then ran away. They were, how-
ever, pursued and taken into custody. At the station-
housb Brown was searched, and a pack of cards, three
combs, skeleton keys, a latchkey, a handkerchief, and other
articles were found on his person.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

LAMBETH-STREET'.

Yesterday Thomas Adams, silk printer, at Stratford, ap-
peared before Messrs. COMBES and GARFoRD on a warrant,
charging him with having assaulted John Atkins, a green
grocer, at the same place. •
John Atkins, a thick-set personage, dressed. in. a fustian
jacket and cord trowsers, having latterly become some-
what better in the world by a legacy being left to his
wife had determined to give. his, daughter Susan a good
education,. and with this view he had sent her to take
lessons in musk to the wife of the defendant, who„ he
understood, was quite competent to instruct her ; but he had
soon found that such was not the case. When his daughter
had been a whole fortnight under the tuition of. Mrs. Allen,
he (complainant) while passing along Whitechapel-road,
purchased a music book, which was exposed for sale on
stall, for the purpose of having his child instructed from it ;
but on his daughter taking it with her on the following day,
Mrs. Allen could neither read nor play a single part from
it----(the complainant here handed to the Bench the music
book which he alluded to, and which consisted of a collec-
tion of very difficult Italian airs)—and he in consequence
considered it quite time to take her away. As soon as lie
had done so, he became a subject for the sneers of the en-
tire neighbourhood, so that the bop in passing his shop

used to cry out, " How axe you off for music?" and fele-
' that the Aliens, from feelings of disappointment at the
girl being taken dray from them were at the bottora,of all
this, he, on meeting the defendant at the sign of
at Stratford, on Monday evening,. spoke to him about, it,
and some words ensuing, that person struck him several
times, and he had not popped his head under the t b'e he
did not know what 'might have been the conseque.•.cl ; in
fact his eyes might hare been knocked out.
Mr. CosisEs—Did I understand you to say that you
purchased a piano for your daughter ? Mr. Atk.ns—Oh,
yes, Sir.

Mr. COMBES—What did you pay for it ? Atkins—
Thirty shillings, Sir.

Mr. COMBES—What, thirty shillings ! Why, it must be
a pocket instrument ? Atkins—Oh, no, Sir; she's not
very large, but still she's a werry sweet instrument.
Mr. COMBES—Then your daughter plays, I suppose?
Atkins—Oh, bless you, yes, Sir, but no thanks to the Aliens
for that.

Mr. COMBES (to the defendant)—Well, Mr. Allen, what
have you to say to this charge? Allen—Why, your Wor-
ships, on Monday evening I was in the parlour of the Bull,
having a pint of ale and a pipe, and enjoying a sight of the
newspaper, when this man, Atkins, commenced in the pre-
sence of several persons to make use of the most offensive
language towards myself and my wife. He said he knew
a great deal about white history and black history ; this,
your Worships, was in allusion to my wife, who happens to
be a woman of colour, and talked very loudly of her not
knowing any thing about music. After putting up with
his offence for some time, I told him that before be talked
in this way he should have paid two shillings for the fort-
night and three days she had been under the tuition of my.
wife. Atkins on this repeated his gross and offensive lan-
guage, and I do admit I struck him.

Mr. COMBES (to the complainant)--A gentleman of pro-
perty like you should pay this.two shillings.
Atkins—Oh, Sir, I have no objection to do so.—(The
defendant, Putting his hand in his pocket, here handed the
complainant the two shillings.)
Mr. COMBES (to the complainant)—ls your daughter
here? Atkins—Yes, Sir ; and my wife too, though she's
not in a wery fit state to be about.

• The daughter, a very plain little girl, of ten years of age,
was here called in ; and in reply to a question from Mr.
Combes, she said she could scarcely read, and could not
write.

The Magistrates were of opinion that Mr. Atkins
should have taught his daughter to read and write before
she thought of requiring music ; and to the great morti-
ficaticn of Mr. Atkins, discharged the warrant, observing,
they thought the complainant had brought the assault on
himself.
Atkins talked of going to a higher Court:

THAMES POLICE.
Yesterday, Emanuel Antonio, a seaman, a native of one
of the Cape de Verd Islands, was again brought before
Mr. BALLANTINE, charged with the wilful murder of
Jacob Kettles, a Belgian seaman, at Zanquebar, on the
eastern coast of Africa. The parties belonged to the
British brig Sandwich, and the prisoner beat the deceased
to death on the island. The whole particulars have already
appeared in The Sun, I..nd, after hearing another witness,
yesterday, the prisoner was fully committed.

The Duchess of Sutherland steam-ship left Downe's
wharf on Tuesday morning, the 7th of June, and arrived at
Inverness on Thursday morning, performing the voyage, which
is a distance of 700 miles, in the-short time of fifty hours.
REVIEW IN HYDE PARK.—Saturday there will
be a Review in Hyde Park before his Majesty, the Prince of
Orange, and a host of distinguished military officers, foreign
and British. The troops will consist of the whole of th
household cavalry, five battalions of household infantry, six
brigades of Royal Artillery, the Bth Royal Irish Dragoons,
the Lancers from Hounslow, and the 3d Dragoon Guards,—
the whole of which arrived yesterday in the vicinity of the
metropolis, where they will remain in quarters until after the
review.

An action, which is expected to be tried the present
Sittings after Term, has given rise to much idle and ill-na-
tured gossip ; but the result is very likely to disappoint the
lovers of scandal, and not gratify the vindictive feelings of
party animosity. It is now perfectly well understood that
there is much ado about nothing" in this business.
THAMES TUNNEL.—The works continue to be
carried on with success. Among the recent visitors have been
Mr. Spring Rice, accompanied by about a dozen Members of
the House of Commons, who were conducted to the shield by
the engineer, where the mode in which the works arc carried
on was exhibited, the miners being actively employed in ex-
tending the tunnel.

SPIDERS.---Of all living creatures spiders are the
most pugnacious. Under no circumstances whatever can they
meet each other without fighting. Whoever wishes to see
their battles may easily manage it. Let him on a fine August
morning, when the hedges and bushes are swarming with
their webs, lift one, web and all, with a twig, and let him
down softly by his thread on the centre of another web,
where sits a fellow his likely match in point of size, and to
it they go immediately. If a fly or any other proper bait be
dropped into a web, and four or five spiders be brought to
the plunder, the battle rages like Waterloo. The lean red
spider with long legs beats all the rest hollow. In their
rage their bodies shiver like the feathers of a turkey-cock.
It is not generally known that spiders have eight eyes in their
heads.

SCIONS OF ENGLISH ARISTOCRACY IN OTHER
COUNTRIES.-1 believe it is the custom of all travellers to
take some refreshment at the farm-houses of La Haye Sainte
and La Belle Alliance ; and I know that it is customary with
some Englishmen to get drunk on the ground. As I entered
the former for the purpose of getting a glass of beer and a
piece of bread, I encountered two of my countrymen far ad-
vanced in a state of intoxication, rolling about the yard, quar-
relling with the pigs, cursing the people, and sparring at one
another. I set them down as men of the ring—or of the turf
or of the swell mob ; the terms are nearly synonimous. I was
not wide of the mark, though a little out of aim ; they weie
the younger sons of two of the oldest families in England, who
had devoted their time and attention to field-sports, and who
were then on a tour through Belgium to see how steeple-
chases were conducted in that country. I took especial care
not. to publish aloud to the people of the house that I was a
native of the same country.—A Saunter in Belgium.
EXCLUSIVE DEALING.—It is much to be la-
mented that the system of exclusive dealing is still carried on
in this neighbourhood, much to the prejudice of that social and
honourable feeling which ought to exist between tradesmen
and customers. The Rev. Mr. Sutton, of Reel:4lam, near this
city, has recently discharged several tradesmen from supplying
him in future, and on being applied to by them for the cause,
he returned an answer to one of them that there were plenty
of Conservative tradesmen in the town with whom he could
deal, and to them he should transfer his custom. We believe
the Rev. gentleman was induced to take this step upon the re-
commendation of a very distinguished Conservative, since de-
ceased.—Lincoln Gazette.

LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, MONDAY.—
We have 'had rather a better demand for Cotton to-day.—
Sales about 3,000 bags, at 12d. to 120. for Bahias-12d. for
Pernams —I Id. to lad. Ilaranhams-7d. to Bd. Surats-16d.
to 150. Egyptians--and Sid. to 111 d. for Americans.
TliE HOP MARKET, JUNE 13.—Since . our _last
week's reports the attack of fly has in some instances assumed
rather a serious appearance; but the weather, from the pre-
valence of squalls and, generally speaking, of cold nights,
appears to-have checked the regular increase of the vermin,
and the accounts of this morning being decidedly of a favour-
able complexion, the duty has been offered to be backed at
17.5,000/. The market is as dull as possible, though the cur-
rency nominally remains without material variation. The pre-
sent currency of merchants' prices is—Kent pockets, 86s. to
925. to 1055.; choice and Essex ditto, 112 s. to 1305.; Kent
bags; 70s. to 86z. ; choice and Essex ditto, 90s. to 108 s. ;
Sussex ditto, 84s. to 955. to 100 s. ; yearling hops, 635.

An extraordinary number of foxes have been disco-
vered this season, preying on the poultry and lambs of the
fanners in various parts of the Highlands, and in particular
Argyllshire. About the head of Holy Loch thirty-seven foxes
have been already destroyed by the people turning out and
making A regular hunt, and starting these wily and pernicious
vermin, and shooting them. In one of the hunts a fox, while
pursued by. the people, came in contact with a very large wild
cat, and a fierce combat between the two animals was the con-
sequence. One of the huntsmen fired and shot the wild cat
dead, and it was found that the fox had been killed by the cat.
The depredations of these animals have inflitqed serious da-
mages on a number of the poor industrious mountaineers.—
_Glasgow
,Evening Post of Saturday.
TH,E MOORS.—We stated in a late number, that
upen.the higher.range of shooting grounds the ensuing grouse
season was expected to be a very bad one, from the long conti-
nuance of the snow storms. We have much better accounts
from the lower districts, where the birds are plentiful, and th 3
young broods numerous, averaging from eight to twelve each.
Smile fears were entertained that the long continued and
severe drought would have proved injurious to the latter, but
the late rains have fallen in time to prevent any serious
loss, among the young birds.—Perth Courier.
. Tories leave no stone, not even a tomb-stone,
unturned, to serve their purposes. So observant were they of
the critical state of health of the late Mr. Sheldon—the
Liberil Representative of South Warwickshire—that last
week an Af.l whipper-in" of the Carlton Club party, made
perseaal and daily inquiries at Mr. Sheldon's house of his state
of health—anxious, no doubt, not for his recovery, but to

" While rival undertakers hover round,
