consider the law as speedily as possible, which was
agreed to.

-Field-Marshal RADETZKY has published the follow-
ing proclamation :--
Inhabitants of Venice,—The peace with Piedmont is
concluded. With this event the last hepes, which some
of you still entertained, of a renewal of hostilities, dis-
appear. By degrees tranquillity and legal order again
restore h:sppinss to the other parts of Italy, whose
population, freed from the terrors of anarchy, turn their
looks with renewed confidence towards a new era. A
faction that oppresses you, makes you alone persist
in an unjustifiable resistance to a government that offers
you all the guarantees of legal liberty and reasonable
progress, which you vainly seek to obtain under a re-
volutionary government by the sacrifice of your pros-
perity. In this last moment I once more raise my voice
to exhort you seriously to abandon a path which, without
offering you any hope of success or utility, would only
add new misfortunes to those which your desperate
cause has already inflicted upon you. In order, then, to
put an end to such evils, I am still ready, and I declare
I will concede to you the same conditions which I
offered you i❑ my intimation of the 4th of May, namely,
Art. 1. A full, complete, and absolute surrender.
Art. 2. The immediate surrender of all the forts, arsenals,
and of the whole city, which will be occupied by my
troops, to whom must also be given up all the ships, what
ever the date of their construction, all public establishments,
war•materials, and every thing whatsoever relating to
the public treasury. Art. 3. The surrender of all the arms
belonging to the State or to private persons. But, on
the other band, I grant, as I than granted, the following
concessions :—Art. 4: All persons, without exception,
who may wish to leave the city by sea or by land, are
allowed to do so. Art. 5. A general pardon shall be
given to ail common soldiers and non-commissioned
officers of the land and sea forces. If you accept those
conditions, you will take the first step towards the only
way that can remedy the existing evils, and insure you
a better and happier future.

THE MURDER AT BERMONDSEY

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
GOSPORT, TUESDAY MORNING.—Her Majesty 's war-
steamer, Fire Queen, sent out last night by Admiral
Cape), in search of the Victoria, American packet
ship, on board of which the fugitives were supppsed
to be passengers, returned at nine o'clock this morn-
ing. The Victoria was overtaken off the Bill of
Portland, and boarded by Langley and Thornton, the
detective officers. Two persons of the name of
"Manning" were found among the passengers, but
they proved not to be the parties searched for. They
were mother and daughter, and the six parcels booked
at the London Docks belonged to them.

APPREHENSION OF MRS. MANNING.
METROPOLITAN POLICE OFFICE,
Aug. 21, 1849, Half-past Two o'Clcck, P.M
Accounts have been received by Electric Tele-
graph, from Superintendent Moxey, of the
Edinburgh Police, that he has apprehended
Mrs. Manning, and has found upon her a por-
tion of the property which belonged to Patrick
O'Connor, who was murdered on the 9th instant.
The information was sent from the Commissioners
of Police to Edinburgh, upon which the apprehension
was made.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY
OLD COUR7'.
(Before the RECORDER.)

John Blake, a butcher, aged 42, and James West, a
cooper, aged 37, were indicted for feloniously receiving
a mare, price 201., the property of John Eyke, which
had been feloniously obtained from him by a forged
order, they well knowing the same to be forged.
It appeared from the evidence that the horse was ob-
tained from the prosecutor by a party not in custody,
by means of a forged order purporting to come from
Batholomew and Co.'s; and while he was bringing the
horse away from the prosecutor's stables, in the neigh-
bourhood of Smithfield, the prisoners came up to him
and inquired if the animal was for sale. The
reply was in the affirmative, and thereupon a bar-
gain was struck, a suns which was not mentioned
being paid as the value of the horse. Some short time
afterwards, on the same day, the first prisoner, who
acted as dealer, while the other assumed the part of
groom, sold it to a Mrs. Cox, a carrier, of Wheatsheaf-
yard, Farringdon -street, for 101., part of which she paid
down, agreeing to pay the balance on the following day.
It fortunately happened, however, that before the hour
arrived for completing the purchase, Mrs. Cox sent the
horse in a cart to Smithfield, where it was recognised
and claimed by one of the prosecutor's servants; and
when the prisoners called for the balance of the purchase-
money, they were told what had happened, and soli-
cited to give some explanation to the prosecutor.'—.They
at once assented to the proposal, and, accompanied by a
servant of Mrs. Cox, they waited upon the prosecutor,
and having explained that the horse came into their
possession in the manner already stated, they were at
once given into custody on the charge contained in the
indictment.

Mr. BALLANTINE addressed the jury for the
defence, insisting that there was no case
against the prisoners. It was quite evident they had
purchased the horse, in a bona fide manner, from a party
who had given a false address, and since disappeared.,:No
sooner, however, was it made known to them that the
horse had been obtained from the real owner by fraud
than they immediately cffered to refund the money they
had received from Mr. Cox; and, had that course been
adopttd, it would have been far better fur all parties than
giving them into custody.
A witness was called to prove that the prisoner pur-
chased the horse as they had alleged.
The Learned RECORDER thereupon gave it as his opi-
nion that no case had been made out against the pri-
soners, either of stealing or receiving the animal, know-
ing it to have been stolen.

The jury accordingly acquitted the prisoners.

NEW COURT.

Before the COMMON SERGEANT and Mr. Alderman

HUNTER.)
James Watson, Jonathan Richard Watson, father and
son, and Robert liawky, were indicted with stealing
5,000 bricks, value 17s.

It appeared that the elder Watson, who is a builder,
purchased at an auction a certain porth n of some old
house , situated near King-street, Woclwich, which had
been put up for sale by Mr. Brocton, the contractor for
the construction of the North Kent Railway; and the
charge was that he had carted away a quantity of bricks
which were not sold to him. The other prisoners were
indicted for being implicated in the transaction.
The defence was, that the elder Watson thought that
the bricks in question formed a portion of those he had
purchased, and that they had been taken away by
mistake.

Several witnesses were called for the defence, from
whose evidence it appeared that the two Wataons had
