the law, and give their spurious and second votes to the
Government favourites—a hedge worthy of the whole
transaction. In the meanwhile, the controversy which
is carried en about particular candidates is not without
amusement to those who can afford to laugh at the
exacerbation of feuds so ephemeral. It would be diffi-
cult to convey a notion cf the intense and titter indig-
nation of the other Conservative journals, at the mono-
poly of recommendation asserted by the Constitutionnel
and the Journal des Debate. And the obnoxious
trinity of Fould, Adam, and Roger, is everywhere
opposed, but eminently and formidably, lr the
names of Delessert, Ertgeaud, and Emile Gi-
rardin. Another pretender there is, not supported
by the Moderates, unless it may be partially out of ill-
will and pique to general Cavaignac, in the person of
Prince Louis Napoleon. It is not difficult to understand
why his name is so often, and, as it appears to us, so un-
necessarily, brought before his countrymen. He is al-
ways coming in, always resigning, and always standing
again. But something more than this is required to
enforce and establish his superb pretensions. An ami-
able, honourable, accomplished, and popular gentleman,
he is by no means in so fair a public position as the
Princes of the House of Bourbon, who represent a
principle, and who, even were they cretins, could scarcely
be worse than Louis XIII. or Louis XVI. But, to con-
tinue Napoleon, you must be something more than his
nephew and the son of Hortense ; and his legitimate
successor is more likely to be found among those who
have fleshed their swords and earned their laurels in
Algiers, than in his own family and blood. Thus, we
think that the Reform and the Bien Public, which are
running in couples to hunt down the Prince, are giving
themselves much pleonastic trouble. Were he member for
Paris to-morrow, he would probably only play second
fiddle to his cousin, who has given promise of
some ability and eloquence ; and, were he even Presi-
dent, or " something more," he would scarcely prove
a serious obstacle to that regenerative radicalism, which
is the dream of the Beforme, or that coute qui coute as-
cendency of M. de Lamartine, which seems to be the
sole object of the Bien Public. However, to a light
nation like the French, the reproduction of ridiculous
passages in political history, is not without its effect.
And the story of " the gilt eagle of wood, with Na-
poleon's victories in magnificent letters on its breast,"
and " the live eagle in its cage," and " the three-cor-
nered hat," and " the sword of Austerlitz," and the
" star of Eugene Beauharnais," are awkward reminis-
cences just now. While the quotations which the R 6
forme has disinterred from the Prince's past speeches,
proclamations, writings, and examinations, are still more
fatal and untoward. He spoke, it seems, of " the revo
lutionary mud" with which an agent of his had mixed
himself up, much to his disgust; and with which he by
no means desired "to dirty his name." He also, it is as-
serted, invoked the aid of Russia in an unhappy phrase,
"In adopting me, this Power elevates me ;" while
Generipl Montholon's frank confession before the
Orleanist Chamber of Peers, is severely stigmatised as
exposing the nature of the Bonapartist movement:—
" The Prince sought every means of entering into
France with arms in his hands, for the sake of retaking
the Crown." While we think that General (Cavaignac
has little to fear from the claims of the Napoleonists, he
may yet perceive in the vista "the beginning of the
end," in so far as his present authority is concerned.
Bo the result of this election what it may, and, oven sup-
posing that two of the Itloniteur's candidates be returned
(the third, M. Gervais, has retired), the Government
can scarcely withstand the rude shock which it received
the other day, in the speech of M. de Falloux, and the
ignominious capitulation to which it was reduced. The
confidence of the Assembly has been withdrawn from it.
The
,time-servers of the Centre and the Plain, upon
whom alone its majority depended, will rat, as they in-
.variably have ratted; and General Cavaignac has no
other resource but to throw himself on that mountain,
to which his policy in office has proved so odious and
offensive.
ADVERTISER.—It is a long time since we advocated
the necessity of employing some efferstive means for the
purpose of saving this metropolis fro'o the annoyanc,
and danger which inevitably result from the foul stet(
of the river on whose banks it is built, and we cannot
therefore but view with satisfaction the willingness of
any of our contemporaries to aid in bringing about this
" conzummatiou devoutly to be wished." The subject is
for a variety of reasons, peculiarly seasonable, and we
therefore gladly resume our efforts for the purpose of
accomplishing en end which all would not fail to desire
and endeavour to accomplish, if the matter were only
presented before them in its proper light. The inhabi-
tants of London ought toreinderstand that the mail who
writes " London is my dwellieg-place," ought to be able
to boast of residence as pure and healthy as any place it:
which a large community can be congregated. It is
true that the gathering people together in large masses
may give rise to a state of the atmosphere which is quite
incompatible with the enjoyment of health, but it is at
the same time true that this result is by no means a ne-
cessary const quence of living in cities. It is quite
within the power of the good citizens of London
to breathe in a pure and clear atmosphere, and
to contemplate with pleasure the fine stream which
now from Battersea to Blackwell is converted
into a noxious drain. We know a case which occurred
lately, in which a Londoner was innocent enough to
imagine, that ho might enjoy a pleasant trip from
Waterloo-bridge to Greenwich-pier, when the tide was
running down. When we state that our friend was a
man with a nose, and with lungs, which have the habit
of inhaling whatever kind of atmosphere may surround
him, it will not be necessary that we should state how
grievously ho felt himself disappointed on the occasion to
which we refer. The bad odour produced by the influx
of the numerous drains, the contents of which were
diluted by the stream, so as to give them the greater
power of dispersion through the whole region, convinced
the passenger that he was expending his groat for the
misery of steaming along a drain some five or six miles
in extent. For such a person it is not necessary to state
that Waternien's steamers will in future ply in vain when
the tide is running down. In the fond recollection of
bygone days, he may apostrophize the famous stream,
but while he sings, "Flow on, thou gentle river," he will
surely betake himself to some rapid conveyance, which
will place between him and the "gentle river," the greatest
possible amount of distance in a given amount of time.
We refer to this particular case only because it
is one of ten thousand which occur every week at this
season of the year, to the great damage of the people of
London, and what in the estimation of too many is still
worse, the deterioration in the value of property in the
neighbourhood of the Thames. With respect to the
state of the atmosphere, similar cause of complaint
exists. The policy of the city of London, whether well
or ill-directed all persons must judge for themselves,
has exempted the citizens from the operation of the
Health of Towns Bill, and deprived us of one moans by
which it was proposed to remove the nuisances which
abound in various directions. Still, let it not be sup-
posed that we are doomed always to remain in the un-
healthy state to which we are at present exposed. We
do not expect that London will ever be able wholly to
dispose of its "home, made cloud;" but wo might ren-
der that cloud much lighter than it is at present, and save
the air we breathe from the intolerable and dangerous
impurities With which it is now filled. The smoke
nuisance of London may be abated, if it cannot wholly
be removed. The large manufactories in various direc•
tions, whose huge chimneys send forth their
dark and heavy volumes of soot, contribute
greatly to the atmospheric pollution, from which
the public health suffers. Those huge establish-
ments need not be as they now are, the causes
of annoyance and injury to the public. They can all
consume their own smoke. There are several inventions
applicable to this object, any one of which would suffi-
ciently accomplish the purpose. If we should be told, as
formerly we have been that the expense of using the
required apparatus is ipet great, we must venture to leave
that matter to the consideration of the parties concerned.
Those who are producing large wealth by these means
ought not to be permitted to damage the public for the
sake of avoiding a trifling expenditure. By proper at-
tention on the part of the community to their own in-
terest, nuisances of this and every kind by which the air
is polluted must be ultimately removed. We are glad
to perceive a disposition to recur to a plan which has
been formerly advocated in these columns, of running a
trunk line of drainage along each bank of the river, so
as to prevent the offensive matter from entering the
stream, to pollute it. It is generally known, but the
fact is not duly appreciated, that the offensive contents of I
our sewers may, by simple exposure to the atmosphere,
be converted into a valuable fertilizer of the ground. We
have seen a notice lately in illustration of the manner
in which this fact is beginning to be appreciated.
We refer to a case in which the contents of a sower were
removed in a barge, for the purpose of being placed on
the land, and the price given for this manure, we hope,
will be such as to create a large amount of traffic. The
truth is, that, for want of a proper arrangement, we are
not only allowing our fine river to be polluted, we are
also depriving the fields by which London is surrounded
of the fertilizer by which their productive power would
be greatly increased. The refuse of a vast city, by a
most wonderful law of nature, can be converted into the
means of preparing a supply for the wants of its living
inhabitants. The plans, therefore, of saving all this
refuse for agricultural purposes is that to the accom-
plishment of which the public purpose should be di-
rected, and for the carrying out of which we have an
abundance of scientific agency available. Among the
various plans suggested to accomplish this most desirable
end, we have not seen any one with the details of' which
we feel perfect satisfaction; but a very little time
would suffice, if the object were really determined
on, to accomplish all that is required. The ex-
periment to which we have just referred will,
we have no doubt, serve to stimulate the enter-
prize of those persons who have hit on that parti-
cular method of turning the public nuisance to a good
account. But we need not say, after the views lately
expressed, this method of acting cannot be cavied on
without danger to the health of the parties engaged.
If the contents of the trunk lines of sewers were con-
veyed to places down the river, it would be quite prac-
ticable, by means of hose such as are now employed to
empty cesspools, to transmit the manure by boats and
suitable means of land carriage, to every place where
the fertilizer may be wanted, without at ail exposing
those engaged in the undertaking to any danger or an-
noyance. Unhappily, the natural enterprize of our
countrymen ha 6 been greatly depressed by the excesses

we have read any work, no matter the subject or species

these varied and amusing volumes. It will be asked
what do they describe to render them so attractive.
Are you a salmon fisher ? read the book, and 'twill

book, and you will see it done by others. Lord Rodney
in his Iris cutter, accompanied by the author and Cap-
tain P., left Greenwich to cruise round the coasts of
Norway, Denmark, and Sweden, chiefly in search of
salmon rivers. They were not, however, all absorbed by
fishing and sporting adventures. They visited and en-
joyed, like accomplised gentlemen as they are, Copen-
hagen, Elsineur, Gottenburg, Christiana, &c., and Mr.
Ross describes those places and their prominent features
with such graphic pleasantness, that you see them beam-

and as they explore its rivers, mountains, woods, and

FIRE IN CLEMENT's-INN.—Yesterday afternoon,
between the hours of twelve and one, flames were ob-
served issuing from the windows of No. 12, Clement's-
inn. The alarm of fire was instantly raised, and on
some men proceeding thither, it was found that the
whole of the upper part of the passages and staircases
was on fire. With great exertion, however, the flames
were kept under until the arrival of the engines of the
London Fire Brigade Ord others, which succeeded in
preventing the spread of the damage, and ultimately
extinguishing the fire. The loss has thus not been
great ; arid we understand the premises were insured.
A basket, which was used as a receptacle for ashes, was
found on the spot where the fire originated, burnt to a
cinder ; and it is supposed the fire was caused by some
hot cinders being thrown into it with the ashes.
THE IZADCLYFFES OF DERWENTWATER MEMORY.

•It is understood that the representative of the attainted
Esrls of Derwentwater, Mr. Robert Itadclyffe, of Fox
Denton-hall and Ordsall Manor, in the county palatine
of Lancaster, will shortly raise a claim to the family's
ancient Earldom of Sussex and Barony of Fitzwalter,
b _gore the House of Lords. A case is to be bubmitted
to an eminent peerage barrister for his opinion on its
merits previous to being laid before the law officers of the
Crown. Should the claimant's title to the older peerage
ho established (as we trust it may), it is presumed, he
will then proceed to seek for a reversal of the attainder
of the chivalroui but ill-fated Charles James, last Earl.
Although the larger portion of the Derwentwater estates
is inalienably granted to that noble institution, Green-
wich hospital, there are yet some relics of their Scot.
tish possessions that the Crown has the power of restor-
ing along with this title, which it is stated, is the last of
the attainders caused by adherence to the Stuart dynasty
remaining unreversed.—DarlinAn Times.

THE SACK OF NETJILLY.
(From Galignani's Messenger.)
On Saturday a young man named Robert was
brought to trial before the Court of Assize of the
Seine, on the double charge of having been concerned
in the burning and devastation of the Château of
Neuilly the favourite residence of Louis Philippe,
and of attempting to extort money under thretsts
from the Marquis de Nicolai. The prisoner had led
an adventurous life and had been in prison for rob-
bery. He was dressed with a certain elegance, and in
the course of the trial dwelt with great complacency
on his successes among women. The indictment set
forth that on the morning of the 25th of February,
after the revolution had been accomplished at Paris,
a number of people went to Neuilly, and demanded
to be allowed to visit the Chateau. As the soldiers
who had been placed to protect the edifice had been
withdrawn, there was no means of opposing this de-
sire. The regisseur, accordingly, gave orders that
they should he admitted, and it was hoped that
they would content themselves with a simple visit.
Presently the number of visitors greatly increased,
and after a time amounted to several thousands. All
went on well at first, but some men having called for
drink the cellars were broken open and the people
rushed in. After drinking to excess some of them
proceeded to commit acts of devastation. They tore
to pieces the rich furniture, destroyed the pictures
and works of art, and threw the remains of all out
of the windows. A heap having been made of the
furniture, &c., the drunken mob set it on fire. The
flames extended to the Ch&teau itself, and soon re-
duced a great part of it to ashes. The leaders of the
mob, who excited them to devastate and destroy,
were observed to be perfectly sober, and appeared to
have peat control over them. Chief among these
leaders was the prisoner, who wore a red belt round
his waist. He was observed in the thickest of the
frightful scenes, and was detected, in company of
another man and a woman, in pillaging a number of
costly articles. The second charge was, that the
prisoner had written to the Marquis de Nicolai,
threatening that if he did not put a sum of 3,500 f.
under the porte cochere of his house at a particular
hour, his Château in the country should be
burned down by a gang of forcats. The
prisoner, in answer to questions put to him, said
that he had gone by the names of Vicomte de
Ribeyrolles and Baron de la Tour, partly because
he had been condemned to imprisonment in early life
under his own name of Robert, partly because he got
on better in the world and succeeded better among
women. His imprisonment, he said, had corrupted
him, and on leaving gaol he again fell into crime.
" But," said he, " God did not abandon me. I met
with an English woman who knew my life, but did
not reject me. She was to me what Madame War-
ennes was to Jean Jacques Rousseau. I have
devoted my life to her. With her I have travelled
through England and Germany, and my heart, what-
ever may arrive, will always be hers." After answer-
ing some questions relative to a key of the Marquis de
Nicolai's house which he had obtained, after which a
considerable robbery was committed, the prisoner
went on to say that he went to Neuilly on the 25th
of February with between 5,000 and 6,000 persons,
and that the Château was burning when he arrived.
fie remained there two hours, and the next day
went to St. Cloud. He denied that he had
excited the people to devastate and burn Neuilly,
though the President warned Min that he had
been recognized by several persons ; and he also
denied that he had endeavoured to excite the people
to go and burn down the Château of St. Cloud.
Being asked what a paper found on him with the
inscription " Boulogne, Laferriere en Brie, Chdteau
Rothschild !" meant, be could not or would not say ;
neither would he say whether he had written it; but
if he had, he said, he had probably done so to know
how to spell M. de Rothschild's name. The Presi-
dent, however, told him that lie had most likely
written the note in order that he might send a letter
to M. de Rothschild similar to that he had sent to M.
de Nicolai. The letter to the latter gentleman was
then read, and the prisoner admitted having written
and sent it. The letter, as set forth in the indict-
ment, threatened M. de Nicolai that his Chateau at
Mon tfermeil should be burned down, as had been that
of M. de Rothschild at Suresne, if he did not deposit
3,500 f. under his porte cochere. The prisoner went
at the time he had fixed to get the money, but in-
stead of receiving the cash was captured by the
police. The witnesses were then called, and they
gave some curious details as to the devastation of the
Chateau of Neuilly.
M. Aubert, formerly regisseur of the Château,
stated, that after the soldiers had gone away, he re-
mained with only about 50 persons, and as they could
not hope to resist the emeute, they put aside their
arms. At first the people were orderly, but the de-
vastation afterwards commenced, and was carried on
in spite of the exertions of a number of energetic
men, who threatened the thieves with death. The
floors soon became strewed with the necks of bottles,
broken glass, and the remnants of destruction. The
next day the witness went to the Château with General
Ordener, and the General, though he had seen many
fields of battle, wept at the sight of the horrible de-
struction ssliM had been effected. "In the cellars,"
says the witness, "we found dead men with their
faces lying in wine ; others so drunk that they could
not stand upright; others who had to be pushed on
like blocks or brutes. There had been 90,000 bot-
tles and 1,200 casks in the cellar, hut only 160 bottles
and 600 casks remained." A number of other wit-
nesses described the dreadful devastation. One who
distinguished himself in opposing the work of destruc-
tion, said that he had been attacked by some of the
drunken men, and rolled among the broken glass ;
" but," said he, "I killed one, wounded another, and
the third ran away !" A powerful woman, who had
been armed with a sword, deposed that she had pre-
vented the chief gardener's house from being burned
down, but the President told her that her conduct in
the course of the devastation had not been right ; and
he added, "Frightful things occurred ; at a moment
at which most infamous scenes were taking place in
one of the chambers, the bed, the ceiling, and the
floor gave way, as if by the punishment of Heaven,
and all disappeared I" A witness, said that many
persons were burnt to death, and that the most abo-
minable orgies took place on the beds of the King,
Queen, and Madame Adelaide. Some Polytechnic
students and others attempted, at the risk of their
lives, to check the frightful profanation, but could not
succeed.
Several of the witnesses swore positively to the
prisoner having acted as a leader in the devastation,
and having shouted, " All must be burnt ! all must
be burnt!'

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Sept. 19.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Ho',Reim.)
WILLIAM BEECHAM'S BANKRUPTCY.
The bankrupt in this case, described as a banker
and money-serivener, at Hawkhur4, Kent, applied
for and obtained his certificate to-day, without the
least opposition.

IN RR --- PRICE.
This bankrupt, formerly connected with the Belle
Sauvage Inn, Ludgate-hill, applied for further pro-
tection, that previously granted by the Court having
expired. The application was grounded on the 2d
section of the new Act, which empowers the Commis-
sioner to grant an order of release to a bankrupt
whose examination being adjourned sine die, or his
certificate refused, may be incarcerated at the suit of
a creditor.

In this instance a creditor, named Newman, op-
posed the application, and
His HoNona, having carefully perused the section
of the Act referred to, said, that under the circum-
stances of the present case he could not consent to
order the bankrupt's discharge, inasmuch as no judg-
ment of his guilt or innocence could be arrived at
until he had passed hi▪ s last examination and came up
for his certificate. When this was done, he (the
Commissioner) would have the facts fully detailed,
and be thus enabled to form a satisfactory opinion on
the merits of the case. He must therefore decline to
accede to the applicati▪
on, but would appoint the 7th
of November for the bankrupt's examination.

Francis Shea, a shoemaker, living at 7, George-

two
watch, a cash -box, and a deed-box containing three
sovereigns, and between 20s. and 30s. in silver, from
the dwelling-house of the Rev. J. F. Denham, rector
of St. Mary's, Strand.
The prisoners were nephews of the prosecutor's
housekeeper, and one of them, Charles Norcott,
visited his aunt at the residence chambers of the rev.
gentleman, in New-inn, on Tuesday evening, the sth
inst. He remained there about two hours, having
once absented himself from the room where they had
been sitting, on which occasion she heard a stumbling
noise in the passage. She did not take particular
notice of the circumstance at the time, thinking it
probable that he had mistaken his way in the dark ;
but she now believed it possible that he might then
have admitted his brother, the other prisoner, into the
house. She went out with Charles at about ten
o'clock, and he took leave of her in Wych-street, after
which she saw nothing more of him. Her master re-
tired to bed as usual, and she believed that she secured
the house by bolting the doors, &c., before going up
herself. Between five and six o'clock the next morn-
ing the Rev. Mr. Denham, having just risen, disco-
vered that the front door was unbolted, and unlocked
from the inside; and he afterwards missed his watch
from a shelf in his study, his cash box, and a deed box,
the latter containing 31. and some'silver. There hap-
pened to be nothing in the cash-box but an empty
pocket-book.
The gatekeeper of New Inn, Wych-street, who was
on duty on the Wednesday morning, deposed that he
saw Isacc Norcott pass through the gate at about a
quarter part five o'clock. There was no thorough-
fare at that hour, but witness knowing that he was a
nephew of Mr. I)enham's housekeeper, and supposing
that he had come from there, did not put any ques-
tions to him.
Prosser, the chief constable of Coventry, deposed
having apprehended both the prisoners at their uncle's
in Coventry. They had arrived there, and were
sleeping together. He searched them, and found the
gold watch and pocket book beloning to the prosecu-
tor, both in the possession of Isaac Norcott.
The Rev. Mr. Denham stated that he had known
the prisoners a long time. They were the sons of a
former sexton of the parish, and he had interested
himself considerably in their behalf. He obtained a
situation in the Post-office, through the influence of
some friends, for Isaac Norcott, and had given reli-
gious instruction and advice to both the prisoners.
He believed that his housekeeper, who had been
in his service ten years, had allowed them to:ehare
more than half her wages ; but, latterly, belreiing
Isaac to be a worthless, idle man, he hail desired that
he should not be permitted to call at his chambers.
Tile prisoners offered no defence.
Mr. llnriar committed them both for trial.

He called upon the meeting to turn out and fight,
and, at the suggestion of Cuffey, put it to the mem-
bers present, individually, "whether they would or
not ?" He told them to speak out honestlyilind
bravely. He accompanied the deputation who went
out to arrange the plans for the intended insurrection,
and, on their return, informed the meeting what
they were expected to do. He said that Mr. Ritchie
had been appointed to lead the noble band of men
who had volunteered to fire buildings, railways, &c.,
and put the propositions as to the watchword by
which they were to be admitted to the Orange Tree,
to meet their leader. In conclusion, he exclaimed,
" May God's bitterest curse hang upon the soul of
that man that shall betray any one of us."

den's beer-shop in Shoulden-street Marylebone.
Knew the prisoner at the bar, and' had heard him
address meetings at Breeden's. On Sunday, the 13th
of August last, he saw him at Breeden's, and heard
him tell the meeting " to prepare themselves and be
in readiness for the great crisis that was coming."
Also, " that it would be necessary to make a small
sacrifice to enable them to assist the committee of
progress." On Wednesday, the 16th, there was
another meeting of between thirty and forty mem-
bers at the same place. The prisoner arrived there in
a cab in company with another man who had a
musket. The prisoner looked into the room,
but did not go in. A man named Smith
went and tapped him on the shoulder, and said to
him "My boy, I thought you were taken." He
replied, " No, they shall only take me with my life."
Witness saw the pike-heads in the hands of several of
the Irish Confederates at the meeting ; also two
pistols. After the prisoner retired several others
followed him, and after a short absence he looked
into the room again. Smith came back with him and
said to the meeting that " they must prepare to be
in Crown-street, Soho, and in Seven-dials, by ten
o'clock, to meet their leaders, and if he saw a good
muster he would give the word of command." Some
one asked how they should carry their arms, whether
openly or secretly ? Smith replied, " The best way
you can, Witness walked towards Crown-street
and Seven-dials, and saw about thirty Chartists and
Confederates whom he could recognise, including
some who were present at the meeting at Breeden's.
A man named Liddell had stated that he only just
escaped apprehension at the Orange Tree by about
fire minutes. He stated it privately to Smith and
others; and also that he had some combustibles in
his pocket to take there, but seeing the police at the
house he hastened away as speedily as possible.
Sergeant Thompson, of the F division, stated, that
he apprehended the prisoner at his father's house,
3, Tatham-court, John-street, East-street, Old Kent-
road, on Monday evening. Having a suspicion that
home
Kent-
road, prisoner was in the house, he watched the return
of the father, and then forced his way in with
him. He found two ladies concealed in the coal-
cellar, and the prisoner was up stairs, attired in his
mother's clothes, with a bonnei and veil on. When
discovered he offered no resistance, but merely re-
quested time to put on his own apparel. Witness
and a brother officer (West) then took him to the
station.
The prisoner reserved his defence. He begged his
worship to allow him to go to gaol in a cab, owing
to his indisposition ; hut, in the absence of a certificate
relating to his health, Mr. Henry declined making
any distinction in his &your.
The prisoner was then committed for trial.
MARY LEBONE.
Frederick Bishop was placed at the bar for final
examination, before Mr. Broughton, on the charge of
having stolen a considerable quantity of cloth, &c.,
from the Paddington terminus
of the Great Western
'Vie evidence went to show that, on Sunday after-
noon last, a parcel, containing cloth, silk, &c., value
upwards of 30/., was sent to Pickford's office in
Regent-street, from Messrs. Kennedy and Co., Sa-
ville-row, addressed to Mr. Gould, Bath; it was
forwarded by the carriers to the railway station,
whence it had by some means or other,
been ab-
etracted, and on the next morning the goods were
found in the possession of the prisoner, who was car-
rying them in a sack along-the South Wbathroad.

' short distance from the railway premises. The pri-
soner when stopped threw down his load and made
off, but was subsequently captured by Hughes,
13 D.—He was fully committed for trial.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET
John Mailer Gardiner, a young man of genteel
exterior, who has passed under the assumed names of
E. H. Green, Rutter and Co., and Straubenzee and
Co., was again brought before Mr. Bingham for
further examination, charged with having stolen a
bill of exchange for 2001., which was entrusted to
him by Mr. William Barnwell, of 81, Jermyn-street,
foe the purpose of getting discounted.
Mr. Hobler said he should apply for a remand, in
order that the prisoner might hear the evidence
brought against him by Sir William Worsley. What-
ever charges were brought against his client, he
thought a sufficient time ought to be allowed for the
attendance of all the witnesses ; he should, however,
apply to have the prisoner admitted to bail.
Mr. Read said he had no objection, providing
twenty-four hours' notice was given.
Mr. BINGHAM said he had not the slightest objet.•
tion to that, and would remand the prisoner until
Thursday week.

CLERKENWELL.
Joseph Worrall and Cecilia Warton Chandler were
placed at the bar before Mr. Combs, charged with
cruelty to four children belonging to the former pri-
soner.

The parish authorities of St. Luke's attended to
conduct the prosecution, and the case excited the
most intense interest in a crowded court.
The poor children, who were attired in the work-
house costume, were mere living skeletons covered
with marks of violence, some of which were actually
festered; their heads were shaved, and exhibited a
mass of scabs and sores ; their bones were literally
protruding through their skin, and they were scarcely
able to stand on their legs. They were allowed to
sit on the floor .during the investigation. The
wretched exhibition of the unfortunate children
caused a great sensation in court.
Police-constable 297 P deposed that on Monday
evening, about six o'clock, ho was passing by City-
garden-row, City-road, St. Luke's, when he saw a
crowd of between 300 and 400 persons, and he was
informed that a woman was ill-using and strangling
some children; he knocked at the door several times,
but could not gain admittance. A ladder was pro-
cured, by which witness got up to the first-floor win-
dow, when the male prisoner, who had a piece of
wood like a staff, threatened to kill any one who dared
to enter his place. The prisoner also threatened
to blow out his brains with a pistol. The
children and the prisoners were in the room ; their
appearance was most awful, and he thought one of
them was dead. Another constable arrived, when
they entered the place and took the four children to
the workhouse, where they were received, and the
prisoners were taken into custody. One of the chil-
dren, Henrietta, nine years of age, had a pair of
dreadful black eyes, and she said they were caused by
her father beating her. The other children also com-
plained of having been ill-used by the prisoners.
Henrietta said her father beat her for stealing half-
pence. She said the children on that day had rice
and sugar, bread and potatoes. They said they were
sometimes very hungry. There was a bed and bed-
stead, &c., on which the prisoner slept ; but the
children lay upon the bare boards without anything
to cover them ; and they were evidently in a state of
starvation.
Sergeant Cotter, 15 N, confirmed this testimony,
and added, that he considered the children's state so
shocking that he instantly procured a surgeon.
Bridget Walter, a nurse in the workhouse, proved
having undressed the children and finding them
covered all over with bruises and sores.
Richard Tyler, the prisoner's former landlord, said
that he had frequently seen the male prisoner beat
the children, and their cries alarmed the whole neigh-
bourhood, and on his (witness's) remonstrating with
him he threatened to blow out his brains for interfer-
ing. On Monday he was again attracted by the loud
screams of the eldest child, Henrietta, and gave her
some bread and butter. He had frequently seen her
leave the prisoner's house with a bottle to fetch gin
for them. He had seen the children devour their
own excrement. He had seen the prisoners lying
comfortably in bed while their children were without
food or anything to lie upon. He took the children,
with assistance, to Mr. Riggs, one of the board of
guardians of St. Luke's.
Mr. Allberry, clerk to the vestry-clerk of St.
Luke's, here said, ahat from information he had
received in reference to this case, by all accounts the
children had been most shamefully treated. The
male prisoner was living on the prostitution of the
female prisoner, who was the sister of his late de-
ceased wife. They were' in the habit of living well
themselves, whilst they starved the children. The
male prisoner was in the habit every night of regaling
himself over his pipe and gin and water at the
Macelesfi•ld Arms in the City-road.
Henrietta Maria Celia Worrall, the daughter, aged
nine years, whose appearance excited great sympathy,
being an intelligent little creature, said artlessly that
her father be4t her for lying and thieving. Mrs.
Chandler beat her sometimes. Her father beat her
severely over the thighs and legs with a thick stick or
cane which broke while he was beating her.
Mr. Frederick Wright, surgeon, IVhitecross-street,
said he found the children in a state of filth and ex-
haustion from want of food and neglect; there were
marks of violence on the children.
The male prisoner asked Henrietta whether he did
not make her say her prayers after lying and thieving
The child--I think so.
Prisoner—Have I not sent you into the streets
with a paper on your back with " Thief" and " Liar"
written upon it, in order to Shame you ? I own I did
beat her very severely With a cane, which broke the
last time. Her flesh is in the habit of festering, and
when I found I had injured her I shed tears.
Sergeant Cotter said, in a drawer in the same room
that the children lived there was a package of arsenic,
which they could easily get at as the drawer was kep"
open.

The prisoner said he kept it to kill vermin. The
words, " Arsenic poison," upon it were in his own
handwriting.
The auditory here became so incensed that they
gave strong expression to their feelings, and applied
the term " Wretches," hissed and groaned, and
called out, " Shame," until they were checked by
the Bench.
Mr. COMBE inquired if the prisoners wished to say
anything to the charge ?
The male prisoner said, he was an accountant, 31
years of age, and bad formerly held office in the
parish of St. Pancras for seven years. He had been in
America, and returned two years ago to Liverpool,
where he held a situation as clerk. His wife died ; he
lost his situation, and his wife's sister (the prisoner)
undertook the care of his family, and they even-
tually lived together. Tyler, he said, was prejudiced
because he (prisoner) prosecuted at this court his
daughter for stealing while she was his servant. He
was driven to distress, and would not degrade him-
self by applying for parish relief, and he had fre-
quently lain in bed for days together without food in
order to give it to his children.
Mr. COMBE ordered that the children should be
taken care of in the workhouse, and bound over the
prisoners to appear again at this court to answer the
charge on Tuesday next.
The prisoners were then taken. from the bar, and
the feeling was so strong against them that they
were hooted and groaned out of court and spat at,
and the people were so infuriated that had it not
been for the protection afforded by the police they
would inevitably have been torn piecemeal, and
they were obliged to take refuge for a considerable
time in the waiting-room, evidently afraid for their
lives. The children were conveyed to the workhouse. I
