TORNADO IN THE DANUBE.

The following is a copy of a letter received at Lloyd's
"On board the Goshawk, Salina Mouth, River Danube,
May 21, 1847.
" Sir,—l write to inform you that at the hour of 2.50, P.M.,
a most terrific tornado took place here, the most violent that
I ever witnessed in any part of the world. The first

Presently the cloud increased in magnitude and blackness,
and spread to the north and west. The direction of the
wind at the time of its greatest violence was N.W.
The wind was accompanied by very heavy rain At
3.15 it raged with great fury, blowing the vessels'
stowed sails off the yards, and drove all the ships
on shore, where they received a deal of damage
from collision with each other. Neither chains nor
warps could withstand the violence of the squalls. Five
foreign vessels capsized against the banks of the river. The
brig Mary Ann, of Sunderland, drove foul of the Galway
Packet, and caused some damage forward. The schooner
Orion drove foul of the Russian man-of-war and carried
away her yards. Theschooner Olivia lost bowsprit, &c., by
a large Greek brig running foul of her. Four or six of the
lighters were sunk; several houses unroofed, boats, bul-
warks, spars, &c. There are two vessels on shore outside
the bar—one an English schooner, which lies high and dry."

COUNT OF QUEEA'S BENCIi, .fu e 12.
LIBEL ON MISS ELIZA CO! 'K.

Sir F. THESIGER applied 1.0 the Court t.i have the
rule nisi obtained in this ca,e wad. absolute against the
propri, tor of the Daily idverti.er.
After a long argument,
Lord DENmert delivered the judgment of tiu. Court,
It was their opinion. Lp in the discussion which they ha:
neard, that it was not proved that it was intended to
libel Aiss Eliza Co.frk. On a reasonable reading of the
paragraph, it was plain that there were two persons of
the name of Eliza Cook; one a supposed murderet,s, and
the other a poetess, and there was a distinction drawn
that the poetess was flat enjoying the fame she ought to
enjoy. while the other had obtained some celebrity. The
Court consid. red that the case should never 1-,ave been
neard of. Mr. JuAiee Wighttnan was too much led by
the opinion of Mr. Martin, that if the rule were granted
it would never be heard of more. _ _

Mr. Justice PATTESON concurred in the decision of
the Court; it was quite plain that there were two per-
sons, and any reasonable person cou.d not fail to dis-
cover that a distinction had been drawn between them.

An application was then made that the rule be dis-
charged with costs.
Mr. Justice DENMAN —Oh, no, you must write with
more care in future.

BAH. COURT, June 12.
(Before Mr. Justice WIGILTMAN.)
Several of the ordinary motions were disposed of, but
nothing of public interest occurred.

COURT OF BANKRUP ICY. June 12.
(Before Mr. Colmni..lotior GOULRUHN.)
IN RE WISHTMAN.

This bankrupt, who had carried on business as a
woollen dr..per, at Colchester, came up to pass his last
examination. . . .

It appeared from the balance sheet that the bankrupt
had in January, 1843, a capital of 4701. O❑ his examina-
tion it appeared, however, that this statement was
tallacious, as about two years betore he had compounded
with his creditors. and had obtained goods on cr• di!.
His present debts and liabilities are about 6041 19i. 7d.;
property, 70/.
His HONoUR said this was one of those cases in which,
to prevent the punishment arising from beginning a
mere adventure without capital, the accountants wade
out a spurious account commencing with a capital, and
this led to further fabricitions—this, however, was
mater to be inquired into on the application for the
certificate.
The solicitor to the as-ignee said books and property
hid been secreted by a person in the employ of the
bankrupt—this person. who had been examined, ad-
mitted the possession of the property. but fore as. arch
warrant could be sent down the go is had b-en removed,
and he refused to disclose where they were.
His Hoxotut said that he bankrupt wont.' never get
his ci rtifiente unless tho property was given up, and he
would grant a search warrant for any place win.te it was
suspected the goods were.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
ivotistim Sii‘.6 ET.
Fanny IV oble, a somewhat genteel looki..g ny mph nf
the pave, wvs charged with stealing two s-ivereigna from
the pi rson of a geotleartn named Thomas White, of No.
18, Paradise-row, Bethnal green.
Mr Vtinite, who said he po:sessed an independency,
deposed that he was on Friday proeerding along the
strr'et near the monum-nt, when he met the prisoner,
who, accosting him. said that she hail not tasti.d food
during that day. He gave her some money to procure
what she so much needed, and tie afterwards invited her
to a tavern. Subsequently, they tepaired to a house of
ill fame in Shoreditch, where they retired to bed. Ile,
however. was awoke at about three o'clock that morning
by a noise in the room, when he observed the prisoner
a anding by the side of the bed, and his purse, which
had been previotply in his trowsers p eket, lying upon
the seat of the chair, deprived somewhat of its fair
proportions;" in fact, two or three sovereigns had been
abstracted.
Sarah Wheeler. servant at the ahove house, stated
that she was awakened at about threeio'cloek that morn-
ing by her mistress, who told her that some one was
endeavouring to leave the house. She- got up and found
the prisoner trying to force the lock of the street door.
She was ultimately given in charge to a police-constable.
Police-constable Bricknall, 169 G, deposed to his
having taken the prisoner into custody.
Acting-Inspector Tate said that when the pr;soner
arrived at the station-house, she declaied most solemnly
that a halfpenny was all she had in the world, but upon
his telling her that she would undergo a strict examina-
tion by the female searcher, she acknowledged that she
had two sovereigns concealed iu her stays.
The prisoner, in answer to a question from Mr.
Combo (who sat for Mr. Broughton) said—" Sure she
had brought the sovereigns from Ireland, why should
she tell the • jointleman' what she had got."
The prisoner was fully committed for trial.
The prosecutor signed the depositions with the
greatest reluctance, and did so only when he was told
by Mr. Paine, the chief clerk, that if he did not, he must
find security for his appearance at the sessions.

THAMES.
John Sullivan. a dock labourer, was charged with the
following murderous and unprovoked as,autt on another
labourer, named Williatn llazeltie.
The prosecutor, who present. d a most frightful ap-
pearance, his face being literally covered with blood,
stated that this morning he was standing with several
other labourers at the entrance of the West India Dock,
waiting to be engaged, when the prisoner suddenly
jumped on his shoulders. Witness desired him to
desist, when he struck him a violent blow over the eye,
and followed it up by several others. Witness was quite
blinded by 'he blood that flowed, and was compelled to
call out Murder." The prisoner then tried to effect
his escape, and put on three different hats in order to
avoid detection, but he was ultimately given into custody.
This evidence was corroborated by two men, named
Slater and Burton, who witnes.ed the asnoult.
Valentine Friend, a dock officer, said he was on duty
that morning by the bridge, when he heard a great row
and cries of •• lie has killed a man." On proceeding to
the spot he toned ti,seltie covered with blood, and the
prisoner was pointed out as the aggressor. Witness
immediately to,.k him into custody.
Mr. BALLANTINE. toter commenting on the brutality
of the prisoner's conduct, fined him 51.. or three months'
imprisonment. He was I-cked up in defaults
