Mr. Samuel Bateincn, the Secretary to a Loan Society
held at the Fox and Grapes public-house in Primrose-
street, Bishopsgate, was charged with drunkenness, and.
with having annoyed several ,-)f the inhabitants of Clifton-
Street, Finsbury, by knocking at their doors.
The case was fully proved, and Mr. Bingham was
about to fine the prisoner 55., but the latter begged that
he might be allowed to atone for his foolish behaviour
by putting 10s. in the poor box, to which the Magistrate
acceded.

that ou Wednesday last he folded a

three hours discovered that he had lost it. He did not
know the number,nor had he any means of aseertaininc,
it, as it had been for a long time in his possession, and
Ike had forgotten the source from whence he obtained it.
Nie, however, remembered that the two first figures of
the number were 6 and 7.
The prisoner said he found the note on Wednesday
morning in the stabling of Mr. M'Manus's premises,
but there was not any sovereign in it.
Mr. HARDWICK said there could be no doubt but that
the note belonged to Mr. M‘Manus, and ordered it tt) be.
given up to him, and after reprimanding the prisoner
allowed him to go at liberty.

The strike of the masons employedte forerunner

Houses of Parliament has proved to ), the
other evils of a similar nature. The masons en
and pil. theo3-ecl
both at the Nelson Monument, Trafalgar-square,
New Steam Decks, Woolwich (contracts undertaken
by
Messrs. Grissell and Peto), sent letters to the contractorsli
on Wednesday declaratory of their intention to strike .
less the terms of their brother masons, lately employed_his
at the new Houses of Parliament, were conceded
was not more than the contractors anticipated, as_ the
masons employed on each work are members of the
Ilirmingharn Lnion. On Wednesday morning Mr. Gris-
sell had an interview with the masons at Trafalgar-square,
which lasted nearly an hour. They had no grievance to
complain of, but they belonged to the -Union, and they
were bound to do as they were bid ; this is literally all
that it was in their power to advance. Mr. Grissell ex-
plained to them the utter impossibility of his acceding to
their demand of the dismissal of Allen. He also ex-
plaine
contractor sd to m the the folly of their going out, seeing that
the would find no difficulty in getting men
from the country to supply their places. He begged of
them not to decide too rashly, but defer coming to a de-
ciston until Saturday, and in the meantime they could
see the heads of the and
and reason with them. The
result of the interview was, we believe,- a determination
of the unionists to quit their employment that evening,
unless the contractors would give up their position as
masters, and consent to obey the dictates of this body
of men,

CORONER'S INQUESTS.
OnWednesday at one o'clock, an inquest was held at the
Feathers, Waterloo-road, before Mr. Carter, Corder
for Surrey, on view of the body of Thomas Golder,
aged 25, a tailor, who was found drowned in the Thames.
Mr. George Maddox, a Thames-police inspector, de-
posed that about a quarter past four o'clock on Sunday
afternoon last, he was in a police galley on the Thames,
when he observed the body of the deceased floating off
West's coal-wharf, on the east side of Waterloo-bridge.
Witness caused it to be taken ashore.

Thomas Golder, the deceased's father, an officer of
excise, living at No. 54, Cornwall-road, Lambeth,
stated that his son was a single man, and at the
time of his mysterious disappearance on Satur-
day last resided with witness. He was a young
man of sober, steady habits. Witness could not account
for his melancholy death. He was in good employment.
Up to the time he left home, which was about ten
o'clock on Saturday night last, he was on the best terms
with the whole of his family. Had never heard him ex-
press any disgust of life, or threaten self-destruction.
He was a young man of good. moral principles, but not
at all melancholy as to religious subjects.
The Jury observed it was a very mysterious case, and
in the absence of further evidence, returned a verdict of
" Found Drowned."

OnWeduesday afternoon an inquest was held in the Com-
mittee-room, St. Katherine's, before Mr. Baker and a
Jury, on view of the body of Seth Brown Grilling, a
native of the United States of America, and late com-
mander of the American line-of-packet ship Montreal,
lying in the St. Katherine's Dock, who died suddenly.
A surgeon gave his opinion that the cause of the
death of the deceased was apoplexy, and the Jury re-
turned a verdict of " Natural death."
The inquest upon the policeman Carroll was resumed
on Wednesday for the fifth time. No positive evidence,
however, was adduced as to the cause of the death of the
deceased, and the inquest was once more adjourned till
Friday.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Brighton Gazette of yesterday.)
PORTSMOUTH.—Rear-Admiral Sir Edward King,
K.C.8., according to letters received here, was at Rio
de Janeiro on the 26th August, preparing to sail for the
Rio de la Plata, in the flag-ship Southampton, 50. Rear-
Admiral Thomas, appointed to succeed Admiral Ross,
