POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Jan. O.

BOW.S FRE Er.--Mr. R;eltard Morse, watchmaker,
of Charing-cross, and Hr. Ileary Good, of 13, Lyall-
street, appeared to answer a summons for detaining a
gold watch, the prow.rty of Mr. W. Tralock, cook to
the Guard's Ciu!,.

It was explained by Mr. Lewis, junior, who con-
ducted the case for the complainant, that Mr. Morse
was only a nominal defendant, the watch having been
left with Lim to repair by Mr. Good. The watch was
stolen from the complainant in :5 public-house in the
Borough, on the Ist May, 1951. On the next day ho
gave information to the police. and the usual notices
were given to the various pawnbrokers. These notice
included a full description of the witch, with the maker's
name and number. On the 3:1 May, however, it was
pawned by a woman who gave the name Harriet Hart,
at Mr. Edwards's, 162, High-street, Roston Old Town,
for Si. Mr. Trulock had bought it but a few months
before for 2.81., of the maker, Mr. Morse, one of
the present defendants. Mr. Edwards kept it in his
possession until about 18 months back, at which
period he sold it for 97. to the father of the defendant,
Mr. Good, by whom it was presented to his son. The
latter, finding that it required repairing, sent it to Mr.
Morse, because it bore his name as the maker, and Mr.
Morse at once gave information to the complainant. In
support of this statement Mr. Lewis called the complain-
ant, the police-officer who received his information in
1851, and gave notice to the pawnbrokers, and Mr. Ed-
wards, the pawnbroker who received it in pledge. This
witness stated that the notices spoken of had not reached
him. He had no suspicion that anything was wrong
about the, watch. lie Old not rend it to the auction
rooms to be sold when out of date, because he had at,
that time no others to send with it. and it was usual to
send about a hundred at a time. He wore it himself for
a couple of years, and then put it in the window. Mr.
Good was his son-in-law, lie did not think 91. was less
than a fair price for it.

Mr. Morse said he had no other wish than to give up
the watch to the right owner.
Mr. Jardine said this was a gross irregularity on the
part of the pawnbroker, who must have seen the notices..
Mr. Edwards—l never saw the notices, sir.
Mr. Jardine—Why did you not send the watch to the
sale at the end of the year ? You are liable to a penalty
of 101. for that. I see only one way of doing justice to
all parties in the case. lam quite ready to issue a sum-
mons far the recovery of that 10/. penalty, which would
he certain to be inflicted by any magistrate who might
hear the case. lam happy to say that in our district I
never heard of such a thing ; and if such things are
done, the police, and all measures for the detection of
crime, will be defeated. I recommend that it be set-
tled y arrangement. The effect will be that the pawn-
broker will lose his money, and I think he richly de-
serves it. If that is not done, I will issue a summons if
any one applies for it.
The case having been adjourned for a short time, it
was afterwards announced that it bad been settled, the
watchmaker giving up the watch to the owner, and the
pawnbroker repaying the 91. to Mr. Good. The matter
was then allowed to drop,
John Mavioni, an Italian, of apparently about 18
years ()rage, was charged with attempting
to obtain
money under false pretences from Mr. Ambrose Ford of
28, Great George-street, Westunip„tc., ,

custody. A mere slight blow would not justify you in
cutting a man's head open with your truncheon.
Inspector Gernon, of the H division, was called upon
to explain what be saw when the charge was taken, and
be said the soldier was bleeding from a wound ou the
head, about an inch and a quarter iu length. It was a
severe cut. I sent for a surgeon, and the wound was
dressed. I told the constable last night there was no
occasion to strike the soldier.
Mr. Ingham—That is just what I should expect of you.
lam much obliged to you, Mr. Gernon. Caution the
police constables not to use their staves on slight occa-
sions. There was no necessity for doing so last night.
Inspector Gernon—None at all, sir.
Mr. Ingham—Now, .prisoner, I am sorry that a man
with that uniform should have misconducted himself, but
you have been punished already, and very improperly
punished, and I will discharge you. If you are guilty
of such misconduct in the public streets again, I must
punish you by sending you to prison. You may go.

THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.

MEETING IN ST. MARTIN'S HALL

The following appeared in part of our impression o.
yesterday :

A public meeting of the inhabitants of the metropolis
took place this afternoon at two o'clock, at St Martin's.
hall, Long-acre, to protest against any peace being con-
cluded inconsistent with the honour and dignity of the
country. The announcement calling the meeting was
headed, " Do the Men of Westminster desire Peace or
War," and was to the following effect :—" Sir, I sin
desired to request the attendance of yourself and
friends at a public meeting of the inhabitants of
Westminster, to be held on Wednesday next, the
30th instant, at St. Martin's-hall, Long-acre, to
protest against the conclusion of any peace on terms
inconsistent with the honour and dignity of this coun-
try. The chair to be taken at 2 o'clock, by Mr. C.
Westerton. By order of the committee, James Beal,
Hon. Sec."

Mr. C. Westerton took the chair at a quarter-
past 2, and proceeded to address the meeting. He said
that as one who had taken a prominent part in
calling this meeting, it was necessary he should
state the grounds on which it had been called.
Those who actod with him felt that a crisis was at
hand, and that whilst the peace party were active in
disseminating their opinions and which were gaining
ground, that the opinions of the acting men of West-
minster being against a conclusion of a peace at any
price, they should have an opportunity of expressing that
opinion. (Loud cheers.) Their object was not to sup-
port any particular set of men who were in office, but to
declare their opinion irrespective of party. One resolu-
tion only would be submitted for their consideration,
embracing two points, one that they were determined to
carry out the war vigorously, and that no armistice
should be concluded until the preliminaries of peace had
been signed, and the other that the war should not close
until they had secured for Turkey her independence and
freedom. Loud °beers.) The Chairman read a letter
from Sir De Lacy Evans, sympathising with the object
for which the meeting had been called, and expressing
regret at his not being able to attend.

Colonel Slant VERIFIER then came forward to move
the resolution. He said, as a moderate Conservative,
it gave him great pleasure in coming before them to-
day. /1 e felt sure that men of every party would be
found to be united in their endeavours to carry the
war to a successful coneusion. He felt that, looking
at the articles of peace, they were not at all satisfactory;
indeed the fifth article meant nothing, and the proper
course would have been to have embodied the whole of
the demands into one resolution, and ask Russia whether
she would accept such terms or not. The condition
that Bomarsund should not be rebuilt ought to be a sine
qua non after they had drawn Sweden into the vertex of
the war. In these articles there was not the slightest
allusion to the re-building of Sebastopol. He thought
that such a thing ought to have been clearly put forward,
and that not only the south side should not be rebuilt,
Lit that the north side should also be given up. Cir-
cassia ought also to be provided for as it would be ex-
ceedingly unjust to come to any terms that did not se-
cure the independence of that brave nation. (Cheers.)
He thought that an armistice being signed before there
was a certain prospect of peace was decidedly objection.
able. (Loud cheers.) The expenses of the war had
been to a degree lost sight of, and ought certainly to be
enforced from Russia. (Cheers.) He begged now to
move the resolution which he thought they would pass
unanimously, it was as follows :—" That it is the
opinion of this meeting that to conclude an armistice
until the preliminaries of peace are signed, would be at
variance with the interests and wishes of the British
people, and that they consider no treaty will be satis-
factory which does not secure the allies an indemnity
for the expenses of the war, and which does not guarantee
the integrity and independence of the Turkish Empire.' '
(Loud cheers.)

Mr. A. B. Ricmons seconded the resolution. They
had had a sham war. (Loud cheers.) They had had a
sham blockade, and were now drifting into a sham peace.
(Cheers.) The Government did not want a peace, but
to beguile and b,:fool the people. The Government
throughout the war had talked about the integrity, and
honour, and intend of Russia, but not that of England,
and much less that of Turkey. (Cheers.) The tele-
graph
wires had been as an halter round the necks of their
army, and also that of the brave Omer Pasha, for when
they had gained a suczess the wires were set at work,
and they made no use of their successes. With regard
to the fall of Kars, Lord Stratford de Redcliffe had been
in close communication with the Government, and he
did not think he ought to be made the scape-goat about
that failure, but they ought to know who gave him his
orders how to act, and what those orders were. He

understood that Lord Stratford de Redcliffe was coming
home to justify his conduct, but he thought no man
could justify the doing a wrong act. The speaker con-
tended that this war bad not been declared and con-
ducted in accordance with the ancient custom of this
country. He entered at great length into the various
events of this war, both in the East and in the Baltic,
and how the war had been carried on. He condemned
our system of recruiting, and in reference to America,
said that our conduct in recruiting for a foreign legion,
had been such as to insult America, by a deliberate act
contrary to the law of nations and the municipal law of
America. (Cheers.) He referred to the intention of
giving up a portion of the Turkish provinces,
to create another sovereign state— a German
sovereign. (Cries of " No," and hisses.) They bad de-
moralised Turkey by their conduct. They had forced
on her a debt against her laws, and had given her money
when it was too late. Her army had been starved
by British interference, her navy demoralised, and her
ships rotting. This war had not been a war against
Russia, but a war against our allies. (Hear.) The ob-
jects for which the war was declared had not been accom-
plished. He said it was intended by Government to
prorogue Parliament to prevent being questioned on the
proposed terms of peace, but he felt satisfied the Govern-
ment would not dare to do it. He called upon the
people to boldly speak out. (Hear, hear.)
Major LYON said he had been unexpectedly called
upon to speak to the resolution. Before so doing be
would, with the permission of the meeting, make a few
remarks relative to the meeting held at Manchester for
a contrary purpose to that for which they were assem-
bled, and he was sorry that so good a cause had fallen
into such bad hands. The speaker then proceeded to
allude to the speech delivered by Mr. Bright, amidst
marks of impatience from the meeting. He had lately
returned from the East, and all that had been said rela-
tive to the state of affairs there was true. He could
tell the meeting something relative to the entry of the
Black Sea by the Turkish fleet. (Hear, hear.) A
friend of his, a Turkish Admiral, was determined
to take his ships into that sea, but the British
Ambassador in Turkey would not allow him. His
friend was determined to enter that sea, and Lord Strat-
ford de Redcliffe then told him that if he did so no re-
, lief would be sent to him. His friend went, and he had
as narrow an escape as the commander who followed
him. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe was, therefore, not
an English ambassador, but a Russian at heart. (Im-
mense cheering.) If they were to have a peace, let
it be an honourable one, but the way to it is
to keep the sword out of the scabbard until you get it.
(Continued cheering.) The expenses of the war had
been alluded to. Now he thought that those expenses
should be repaid by Russia. '(lmmense cheering.)
Indeed he thought the latter part of the resolution was
as important as the first, and that a satisfactory indem-
nity must be insisted on. (Loud cheers.) He most
cordially begged to support the resolution that had just
been moved.

Mr. S. ROLLAND rose to support the motion, when
two gentlemen presented themselves to address the
meeting, amidst cries of chair and order.
The CETAIRUAN asked for a fair and patient hearing
of all. Mr. Harris would submit an amendment to the
meeting. (Hisses and laughter.)
Mr. HARRIS said that, notwithstanding the manner
in which the resolution had been received, he should
move the following amendment :—" That in the judg-
ment of this meeting the terms offered by the Allies
and by Russia will form the basis of a satisfactory
peace. (Hisses, and cries of "No, no," and great
confusion.) The chairman appealed to the meeting, and
asked the question if the speaker should be heard, which
was met with overwhelming cries of "No, no." Mr.
Harris then retired amidst loud cheers.

Newman stated that the prisoner was making a dis-
turbance at a late hour on Tuesday night, in Royal
Mint-street, and there were five or six prostitutes about
him, equally noisy. He told the prisoner to move on,
and return to his quarters, and he went away. A few
minutes afterwards the prisoner was making a disturb-
ance in a court leading out of Rosemary-lane, and on
ellin him to go on he struck witness on the back of
the head with his clenched fist. He took the prisoner
into custody, and ho struck him a second time on the

Mr. ROLLAND again attempted to address the meeting,
when Mr. Finlen stood forward to move another amend.
ment, but the meeting refused to hear hiss. Mr. Rol-
land then said that he thought they would not have been
so desirous of hearing him bad they known what he
had to say. He entertained no very high respect for the
resolutions of a public meeting. They knew the adage
that "hell was paved with good resolutions," and the
pavement of the infernal regions had received a. vast ac-
cumulation of material during the past two or three
years, considering the expression of feeling, and passing
resolutions at public meetings, and the perpetual under-
current of diplomacy, which he illustrated by re-
ferring to the meetings that had been held declar-
ing the war should be carried on with vigour, whilst
Lord Clarendon (who acted under orders the same as
Lcrd Stratford de Rtcicliffk,) was acting as a diplomatist

in a contrary direction. The only resolution that should
be on their lips and in their hearts was "impeachment."
(Cheers.)

The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution above moved
to the meeting, when Mr. Finlen again came forward to
move an amendment, and was favourably received at
first.

Mr. FINLEN said ho went heart and soul with the
spirit of the meeting, and agreed with the resolution so
far as it went. What he held in his hand he had sub-
mitted to the gentlemen who had called the meeting,
and asked thorn to attach it to the resolution as an ad-
denda, but, as they had demurred, he submitted it to
the meeting. It was as follows :—" That this meeting
has no hopes that any indemnity for the expenses of war
will be exacted from Russia, or that the terms of peace
which England ought to accept will be agreed on unless
the Ministers who have entered on the present negotia-
tions are deprived of office and impeached. (Loud and
continued cheers.) The time had now come when they
should do something that would have a positive and
advantageous effect. Now that England was placed in
a critical position—now that her honour and martial
fame were alike both exposed to jeopardy—when the
men of England could witness their country likely to
become humiliated by her Ministers, it was time that the
great body of the men of England; who made England,
worked for England, and supported England in times of
peace and in times of war, should speak out, The
English people bad made sacrifices to have Turkey con-
served, and the Russian power humbled, but now, at
the end of two years' hard fighting, they found strange
terms proposed, and they were urged to conclude peace
in keeping with the honour of the Russian Czar, and
the interests of the Russian people. (Cries of " Shame.")
They went to war to preserve Turkey, which had been
jeopardised by the policy of Russia, and he did not
think that in considering the terms of peace they should
consider whether they were advantageous to England,
but whether they had procured for Turkey the object
for which they went to war. (Cheers.) Alexander 11.
was a criminal at the bar of public opinion, and
let the people give their verdict without asking the
Czar what would please him, and be compatible
with his honour. (Cheers.) The Czar had trespassed
as a burglar on the possessions of Turkey, and wished
to appropriate the property of another to himself. Ho
was, therefore, a burglar—an Imperial one if they
pleased. (Cheers.) Ministers were about to have an
interregnum which was likely to be disadvantageous to
this country, and the men who could countenance such
a thing ought to be outlawed. (Cheers.) Already had
100,000 men fallen in the Crimea by the doings of English
Russians, Lord Aberdeen, Lord Palmerston, and
others, and it was time to prevent its repetition.
(Cheers.) After some further remarks he moved the
amendment.

The CHLIBILIN then came forward and said, as this
was a meeting of the people of Westminster, it had
been decided that none but inhabitants should speak. A
gentleman named Hart had expressed a wish to address
the meeting ; he therefore wished to know if it was
not their wish he should proceed. The assent of the
meeting having been given,
Mr. HART came forward to second the amendment.
In doing so, he asserted that indemnity should be re-
solutely insisted on. Impeachment had been mentioned,
and he thought very justly. The terms of peace themselves
furnished a reason why the Ministers should be im-
peached. What did those terms ad'nit of ? Why, that
the Principalities should be allowed to fortify themselves
against Turkey. Would the people of this country
who took a king into the open court, tried him,
took him to the block, and rolled his head on
the scaffold, now shrink from impeaching those
who had committed worse crimes ? (Loud cries of
"Treason.") Trial, verdict, sentence, and execution
should follow elose upon one another. (Immense
cheering.) The terms of peace now about to be sub-
mitted to were Russia's own, submitted to this great
country by her English Russian agents. (Immense
cheering.) The neutralisation of the Black Sea—what
does it mean ? Why, that sea as far as Russia
is concerned is neutralised already, but the real
meaning was that it should be neutralised as
far as regarded Turkey—it meant nothing else than
that upwards of 200 miles of Circassian coast should be
given to Russia. (Cries of " Mear, hear," " That's it,
that's it.") The speaker then detailed the proceedings
of the British army on its first arrival at Gallipoli. They
never knew, he said, till Sir G. Brown told them, that
the troops went there to protect Turkey. What had
they been landed at Gallipoli for ? Why, it was like
landing troops at the most remote part of the British
coast, and fortifying York, for the protection of
London. (Laughter.) At the time the troops were first
sent out it was strongly urged upon the Government to
avoid the valley of the Devon as a plague spot. Colonel
Chesney and Omer Paella both told the Government so ;
yet what did they do ? Why, they encamped the army
in that dreadful place, and toe hundreds of graves that
were to be found there at the present moment were not
filled with Russians or Mallow/16days, bait Englishmen
taken from amongst themselves. Englishmen, for whona
prayers had been said, tears shed, and the lamentable
English wail had gone forth. (Shame.) He said those
brave men had been murdered. (Tremendous cheers.)
He hoped the men of Westminster would that day be-
have themselves in such a manner as to show their rulers
that they still possessed the spirit which led them on
to behead one who had committed crimes equal to
—not worse than—those perptratel by their present
rulers. (Immense applause.)

Mr. JAMES COBBETT, M.P., said there wore two re-
markable circumstances amongst the many hundred
connected with this war, which were that a late Minis•
ter, a few months since, admittel 11,124 we were agreed
with our enemy Russia, but not with our ally Turkey ;
that it had been recently admitted, in what was sup
posed to be a Ministerial point, that no reason was do-
scribed for going to war otter than that England
" drifted into war ;" but whether they drifted or
slipped into war head foremost or heels foremost was
immaterial, but it was etident they went to
war with their fists only half clutched and with quiver-
ing jaws.

Mr. W. J. O'CONNELL said le believed the Irish sol-
diers had nobly done their duty in the Crimea. (Cheers.)
So strongly did he feel on the war that he wrote a letter
to Prince Albert, offering to raise an Irish regiment to
assist in the war. He was refered by his Royal -High-
ness to the Commander-in-Chief, and the result was that
his offer was refused' because it would interfere with
the Government raising a foreign legion. (Hear, hear.)
He stood there as an independent man, and he
warned them against setting a bid precedent that day,
by impeaching the Ministers )f England. (Cries of
" Shame," and hisses.)
Four or five gentlemen came brward to address the
assembly, when the Chairman appealed to the meeting
to decide whether they should be beard, or the resolution
put to the meeting. Some confu'ion arose, and one of
the gentlemen persisted in ackressiog the meeting
amidst cries of "Sit down," &c. After gesticulating for
some time he retired, when ;he Chairma❑ pro-
ceeded to put the resolution And amendment to
the meeting amidst cries of " Amendment, amendment
only." At length the demand of the meeting was com•
plied with, and the amendment was put and carried
amidst the most vociferous cheering and waving of hats
and handkerchiefs. The original re3olution was conse-
quently abandoned.

A vote of thanks was then given to the chairman
and the proceedings terminated.

FRAUD.—The machinations of the crafty and design-
ing are alike endless and inexhaustible. No sooner does
a useful and excellent invention deserve and obtain the
favour of the public than it is immediately made the ob-
ject of piracy and counterfeit of the basest kind. For-
tunately the arts supplytho requisite protection, and we
learn with pleasure that Messrs. Rowland, the spirited
proprietors of the invaluable Macassar Oil, have, in self-
defence, engaged those incomparahe artists, Messrs.
Perkins, Bacon, and Co., to engrave a label, which
is not more admirable, as exhibiting the perfection of
art, than as affording "a protection against the base
and designing." l'ho brief space of a paragraph is ob-
viously insufficient to describe the peculiar character of
this exquisite production of the engraver's skill ; suffice
it that, in addition to an embossed profile of her Majesty,
it presents the wo.ceis "Rowlands' Macassar Oil," sur-
rounded and embellished with designs of the most chaste
and elaborate ehttracter, the whole on a scale of great
Ilelicacy and minuteness.
rADvEarissmsszj.—The possibility of abandoning medicine
altogether is showx by the numerous extraordinary cures,
without medicine, of indigestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, con-
stipation, nervous, bilious, and liver complaints, cough,
asthma, consumption, and debility, effected by Du
Barry's delicio.us Health - restoring covalenta ' Arabica
Food. The !following are not tits least remark-
able : —No. 4'2,130, Major-General King, sure of
general debility and nervousness." Cure No. 28,416, Wil-
liam Hunt, EN Barrister-at-law, GO years' partial para-
lysis. No. 32,1;14, Captain Allen, recording the cure of a
lady from epihiptic fits. No. 26,419, the Rev. CharlcS Kerr,
a cure of functional disorders. No. 24,811, the Rev. Thomas
Minster, cure of 5 years' nervousness, with spasms and daily
vomitings. No. 41,617, Dr. James Shorlend, late surgeon in
