WANDSWORTH.

James Watson, a brickmaker, was brought up on a
warrant, charging him with having violently assaulted
John Mullins, an assistant to Corporal Leslie, of the
_Royal Sappers and Miners, who, with a private in the
same regiment, is engaged in carrying out the Ordnance
Survey in this district.
The complainant, a young Irishman, of rather ragged
exterior, and to the back of whose coat a large lump of
clay was adhering, stated that on that morning, about
ten o'(dock, he was sent into a brick-field below West-
bill Villa Lodges, and requiring a level standing, took
one of some bricks he saw in a row, for the purpose.
The defendant, without saying a word, rushed up to
him, caught hold of the collar of his coat with both
hands, and when complainant told him to let go, he said
he should go and fetch the brick he had been standing
on. Complainant brought it back, and defendant, after
pressing the brick, which was newly moulded, against
his breast, and dirtying him, told him to throw it into
the mill, which the horse was then walking, and as he
(complainant) was stooping to do so, defendant threw
another brick, which he had just made, at his back, and
there most of it stuck. The defendant threw a second
time, but complainant, who made the best of his way
hhaadvebeS
out of the field, was not hit by it. He had not told the
defendant that he was employed by the Board of Ord•

THE SUN, LONDON,

Corporal Leslie said he was appointed by Captain
Yelland, and acting under the ordels of the Master-
General of the Board of Ordnance, and the magistrate
would see, by looking at his (Leslie's) appointment, and
the abstract of the Act that accompanied it, that any
person assaulting another under such authority, was lia-
ble to a heavy penalty.
Mr. PAYNTER said the words of the Act were, "Any
person obstructing any person appointed by justices, un-
der the orders of the Master-General of the Board of
Ordnance, was liable," &c. It was clear there was no
direct appointment here either by the justices or Board
of Ordnance, and therefore, under the circumstances,
he considered it a most unwarrantable act for the com-
plainant to have gone to the row of bricks and take one
away.
Corporal Leslie said the concluding words of the
clause were," or any workman or other person► acting
in aid of any such person appointed by such justices
as aforesaid, shall forfeit a penalty of 101., or not less
than 2/."
Mr. PAYNTER observed that he did not consider the
corporal's appointment by Captain Yelland was within
the meaning of the Act.
Corporal Leslie—Mullins has a written appointment,
and I can produce it another day, and that justifies him
going where I sent him.
Mr. PAYNTER —Your opinion is that of a corporal;
mine is that of a magistrate and a lawyer.
Corporal Leslie—But, Sir, we must be protected, or
we cannot make the survey.
Mr. PAYNTER—You won't be protected if' you go into
any place with such authority; and instead of the de-
fendant being here, I think it should have been the
complainant, and the defendant had a perfect right to
have given him into custody for the taking of the brick.
It would have been a harsh measure, but a just one. I
shall discharge the man.
Corporal Leslie—We may as well quit our duties.
Mr. PAYNTER—You are not to make any remarks of
that sort here.

ELECTION COMMITTEES.
(YESTERDAY.)
CHELTENHAM.

At the sitting of the Committee yesterday morning,
Mr. R. GURNEY applied to the Committee to substi-
tute the name of Mr. Gardner for that of Mr. Berkeley
in the return made by the Mayor of Cheltenham. He
grounded this application upon the fact, which he proved,
that a notice was given to the electors some days before
the election, that inasmuch as Mr. Berkeley had been
guilty of treating at the previous contest, be was inca-
pacitated from offering himself again as a candidate for
the seat.

Mr. JAMES, on behalf of the electors, resisted the ap-
plication on the ground that as Mr. Berkeley had de-
clared, both in print and at the hustings, that he was
not disqualified, they had no right to presume that the
notice given on the other side was legal, until a tribunal
had decided upon the truth of the allegation it contained.
The Committee took the same view of the matter, and
refused the application.
They then agreed to a resolution declaring the last
election for the borough of Cheltenham to be a void
election, and their labours terminated.

" .tit the review of the garrison of Colonge, I was un-

" PEACKER, Minister of War."
His Imperial Highness the Archduke VICAR o_

Chief President of the Rhenish Circle of the Grand
Duchy of Hesse, and to the President of the Re-

" During my journey to attend the fete, celebrated at
Cologne, and during my stay in that city, I have re-
ceived from all the inhabitants of the Rhenish territory
such lively marks of confidence and affection that I feel
it a duty and a pleasure to express my cordial gratitude
for the same.

" For the manner in which I have been received, I
not only recognise attachment to my person, but 1 see
that the people of Germany are profoundly and power-
fully impressed with the feeling of the unity and liberty
of Germany.
" These dispositions convince me that we shall have
the happiness of attaining the end to which we aspire.
" I beg that you will make known to the brave rive-
rains of this noble river of our country the gratifying
and joyous remembrance that I cherish of this tour.

" The noble bearing and energy of the civic guard,
in particular, especially those of Coblentz and Cologne,
which I hare had an opportunity of inspecting more
closely, convince me that they hold out the surest gua-
rantees for the maintenance of liberty, legality, and
order."

REPORTED REVOLUTION IN

RUSSIA.

The German papers mention a rumour that a revo-

The National Zeitung publishes a letter from
Breslau of the 18th, which says—
" A revolution has broken out simultaneously at
St. Petersburgh and Moscow. Travellers who have

firm this intelligence. The EMPEROR has fled to
Cronstadt. A provisional Government has been
established at St. Petersburgh. Further details are
as yet not known. The Prussian messenger at St.
Petersburgh has arrived here with the Vienna mail.
The. same train has also conveyed a Russian courier.
The Kolner Zeitung publishes similar intelli-
gence, and adds:—
" This is the information which we have received.
We ate not enabled to confirm it from authentic sources,
neither can we disprove it. All we can say is, that all
news coming from Russia ought to be received with con-
siderable doubt and mistrust."
The Schlesische Zeitong, of the same date, brings
the same news, with some additions:—
"The rumour of a successful revolution in Russia
came first to Breslau on the evening of the 17th, by a
traveller, who arrived with the night train from Myslo-
wits. It was confirmed on the following day by the
Prussian Consul at Warsaw, who passed through
Breslau on his way to Berlin. The revolution, it ap-
pears, was effected by a monster conspiracy. Its out-
break was contemporaneous in the two capitals. The
troops refused to fire on the people. The Emperor ma-
naged to effect his escape to Cronstadt, and a Provisional
Government was proclaimed at St. Petersburgh.
The Oder Zeitung, too, publishes the same report,
almost literally ; but the Preussische Staatsenseiger,
of the 22d, has no news whatever under the head of
" Russia."

interfere, when he said he had nothing to do with him.
He used very ill language, but could not recollect the
exact words. He was coming from the direction of the
camp and had no person with him. The soldiers were not
all sober. One man was confined for drunkenness.
Turned after the friar. He was shouting to drive the sol-
diers home, or some language to that effect. Saw de-
ceased coming down, and his head cut. Could not see
the friar at the time. Is certain he was not in front
of the deponent. Police then came up and arrested
two men. The corporal and deponent gave them-
selves up to the picket. If they had gone to the camp
in the state they were, would have been confined, being
found in a quarrel with the inhabitants. Heard no
language that night calculated to insult any one. Three
of the party were drunk. The friar was pointed out to
him as having offered insult to some of the soldiers; and
he (deponent) was determined to prevent him from
offering insult by going for the police. Did not know
where the police barrack was.
John O'Leary, constable at Tipperary, deposed that
he saw two soldiers in an angry conversation with
the Rev. Mr. Griffin. Called on theta to come
with him to their barracks, after which stones were
thrown at the military. Was between the people.
and military, and endeavoured to keep them from
collision. Called on a man whom he saw raise stones,
and asked him in God's name to desist, and be said—
" Don't you see our priest insulted?" There were no
stones thrown while the friar was there. One of the
military (thinks the corporal) had the friar's horse by
the bridle. He went away as soon as he was let go. Ar-
rested James M'Carthy, who had stones in his hands.
Sub constable Denis Sheehan deposed that he came
up to the place where the soldiers and the Rev. Mr.
Griffin were in dispute. Was there before the constable.
Corporal Irwin held the horse by the rein. Told him
to let him go. He would not. Another soldier maim
up and wanted him to go away. Ho then said, "Tn
hell with Popery." The people wished to strike him.
Deponent advised the people not, nor to take up stones.
They threw them away at the suggestion of the police.
Some other evidence having been given, the jury
returned as their verdict—" That the deceased died on
the 16th inst., from the injuries received on the 6th,
from a blow of a stone on the side of the forehead; and
that said stone was thrown by some person unknown."

With Beasts, the general quality of which was by no
means first-rate, our market was seasonably well sup-
plied to-day. On the whole, the Beef trade was in a
very sluggish state, at prices about equal to those paid
on Monday last, the highest figure for the best Scots not
exceeding 4s 2d per 8 lbs. As will be seen by our re-
turns, the supply of foreign stock was tolerably exten-
sive. There was a considerable falling off in the number
of Sheep compared with that shown on several preceding
Fridays, owing to which, the demand for that kind of
stock was somewhat active, and, in some instances, the
primest o!cl Downs produced a trifle more money. In
Lambs a steady business was transacted at extreme
rates of value. Calves moved off freely at an advance
of quite 2d per 8 lbs; but Pigs were very dull in sale.
Mulch Cows sold at from 151 to 181 each, including their
small calf.

The Cologne Gazette publishes the following from

" The brutal conduct of the soldiers of the sth In-

comprise our garrison, increases. Yesterday evening a
general plunder of the eating•houses at the Altmark
was apprehended. The tumult was so great that after
various eatables had been stolen, both the booths and
the shops were closed. We must do the officers the
credit to say that they did their utmost to check the
soldiers, but it is very evident that the reins of di►cipline
are somewhat slack. If the sth Regiment be not re-
called hence, we may expect events equal to those which
took place at Schweidwiir.."

volunteered to march to the assistance of their bre-
thren of Bologna, repaired to the square of the Qui-

was such that his words could not be heard. When
he bestowed on them his benediction, however, he
distinctly said "Peace be with you ;" to which the
militia and people responded, " Courage, holy

openly spoke of war, but his only reliance was in
French intervention, which be earnestly demanded
from M. Bois LE COMTE during the two days that

MR. HOWARD, Surgeon Drotist, 52, Fleet-

TION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly reiemble the natural teeth as not to he
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change colmr or decay, and will be found very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within
reach of the most economical, he has fixed his charges at the lowest
scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At Home from Ten till Five.

One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
i,.itter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the Indissoluble, regret un-
conaprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justicedensaad that health should form au item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if

AMSTERDAM, AUG. 21.—THE BOURSE.—At the com-
mencement of the Bourse the inland funds were flat, but
recovered subsequently. The unfavourable intelligence
from Balby had a prejudicial effect. Spanish funds were
lower, as were also coupons. Integrals were in demand.
Austrian, at first, in consequence of the fall in Vienna
funds, were considerably lower, but as there were many
purchasers, they got up again towards the close. Five
per Cents. Russian maintained their prices; Four per
Cents. more in demand. Little variation in the other
foreign funds.—Amsterdarn Courant, Aug. 22,

IsTsw TRIAL.--Th;;Lintiffin this action is a wheelwright,
and brought the action to recover the sum of 51. 7s. ld. for
work and labour done. The defendant pleaded a set off for
a chaise sold. The cause was tried a short time since, when
the jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff. An application
was, however, made to a Learned Judge at Chambers to stay
execution till Michaelmas term, in order that plaintiff might
move the Court above for a new trial, but by consent
an order was made fur a new trial, and it now came before
the Court a second time.
The Learned SECONDARY suggested that the case should be
adjourned till next week, and tried before Mr. Secondary
Potter and another Jury, but the plaintiff would not consent.
The Learned Secondary said the crse came Lefore him out of
the usual course, but if the plaintiff insisted he was bound to
try it now.
Defendant's brother was called, and swore positively that
the chaise was sent to plaintiff's for sale by auction, but was
bought in, but that afterwards plaintiff and defendant met,
and plaintiff agreed to buy the chaise for 61. 10s., and it was
left in his possession.
For the plaintiff; two witnesses were called to prove a
conversation, which made it improbable that the sale took
place as described. The evidence was very uninteresting.
The SECONDARY said that it was entirely a question of
credibility. The chaise being still in plaintiff's possession
was no proof of a sale having taken place, as it was perhaps
more the duty of defendant to have fetched it back than
plaintiff to send it if not sold.
The jury retired for a considerable time, and then gave a
verdict for the plaintiff for 51. 7s. ld.
The SECONDARY said he quite agreed with them.

Italian brethren in arms, who shared with her the laurels

Napoleon.
•' It persisted in demanding the intervention of
France, even after foreign diplomacy had suggested the
idea of mediation.
"It gave to our diplomatic agents instructions in
conformity with public law, contracted obligations, and
the dignity of the country. It engaged them, as far as
it could be done, to turn the forces of the Peninsula to
the profit of the Indian cause. Although it has not
been allowed the time to bring to a conclusion the
major part of the operations they commenced, or to
witness their good effects, it has a firm persuasion that
good fortune will not be wanting to Italy. provided
that she be not wanting to herself, and that she imitates
the courage of the Prince, who, at the moment of the
greatest reverses, exclaimed, 'The Italian cause is not
lust.'
" There would be an indignity in losing, for ten days'
fortuitous disasters, the confidence due to four months of
prosperous events and heroic sacrifices: it is great im-
prudence to believe that a shameful peace can be better
than an honourable war to secure the material interests
and honour of Piedmont, the stability of the constitu-
tional monarchy, the integrity and tho independence of
the Italian territory, the concord and peace of the whole
of Europe.
