MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Feb. 17.

(Before Mr. Creasy, at Westminster.)
Edward Hunt, 19, and Matilda .Etuglies, 30, who
surrendered, were indicted, the former for stealing
16 lbs. of copper nails, value 155., the property of
Charles Tibbett and another, his masters, and the
latter for feloniously receiving the same, knowing
them to be stolen.

Hunt pleaded guilty, and Hughes was put upon
her trial.

Mr. Platt appeared for the prosecution ; Mr.
Sleigh for the defence of Hughes.
Tie evidence against Hughes, whose husband
keeps a marine-store-shop in Shadwell, was, that
the nails were found in the shop, and that she
acknowledged hiving bought them from Hunt.
Mr. Sleigh made an able defence for Hughes,
contending that she bought the nails in the absence
of her husband, that she was entirely ignorant of
the nature of the business, and did not know that
she was doing wrong. He ()ailed a number of very
respectable witnesqis, who deposed to her having
always borne an irreproachable character.
Mr. Creasy summed up, and
The Jury, after a short consultation, found the
prisoner Hughes not guilty.
Mr. Creasy, in sentencing Hunt to three months'
hard labour, said he hoped that punishment would
have the effect of inducing him to refrain from dis-
honesty in future. _ _

James Roberts, 19, and John Dalton, 27, were
convicted of having stolen two cwt. and upwards
of lead, the property of the " Masters, Wardens,
and Assistants, of the Guild, Fraternity, or Bro-
therhood, of the most Glorious and Undivided
Trinity, and of Saint Clement, in the parish of
Deptford Strond, in the county of Kent." (The
Trinity Corporation.) Dalton surrendered.
Mr. Creasy sentenced Dalton to four months'
hard labour, and Roberts, who was known to the
police as a bad character, to eight months.
George James, 20 years of age, was convicted
upon the prosecution of the Associate Institute
for Improving and Enforcing the Laws for the
Protection of Females, of an atrocious assault,
with most distressing consequences, upon Elizabeth
Jane Brown, a child only two years old, and sister
a a young woman be cohabited with, in Christian-
street, Whitechapel. He was sentenced to hard
labour for two years.

The market is firm, with a tendency to higher prices;

Selo:inner Hushmut Bahadoor, next brother of the King
of Oude, and uncle of the young Prince, died on Thurs-
day, at his residence in Warwick-road West, after an
illness of short duration, brought on by anxiety occa-
sioned by the death of the Queen of Oude a few weeks
since in Paris. His highness had the advantage of the
best medical skill, but his malady would not yield to
treatment. The remains of the Prince will t e cmiveyod
to Paris with becoming ceremony to-morrow, for inter-
ment by the Fide of thole of the Queen of Oude, in the

LAW OF LIBEL BILL.

Lord CAMPBELL said the second reading of this
bill stood for Monday next, but in consequence of cer-
tain circumstances he thought it would be better that
the second reading should be postponed until a future
day.
Lord LYNDE{URSr asked the noble lord whether
the provisions of the bill might not be made more
extensive.
Lord CAMPBELL said he had gone as far as he
thought he could do with safety, but if his noble friend
would take the bill on his hands he should feel great
pleasure in committing it, to his keeping.
Lord STANHOPE said the bill a■ it stood had the
advantage of being the ►ecommendation of a select com-
mittee. If th• bill was made more extensive in its
effects, a fresh measure would have to be introduced
which would not have that reoommendation.
After a short conversatien the second reading of the
bill was postponed.

GENOA.

The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa of the 23d says :
—" Yesterday three refugees—namely, Advocate
Mignona of Tarento, aged 49 ; Engineer Carlo
of Cosenza, aged 31 ; and M. Zambarelli of Naples,
aged 23, were arrested here. 0 hers have received
orders to quit the country. The Government has
resolved no longer to tolerate such refugees as have
been in communication with Mazzini, because it
has 13-en informed that the latter intended to or-
ganise a fresh revolt at Genoa. It is said that the
Englishman Daniel Hodge, arrested at Genoa, has
been found in possession of several papers which in-
criminate a large number of persons ; also, a pocket-
book in which he used to write down all those with
whom be had held conversation, together with the
tenor of it and his own impressions."

Mostar, and that operations against thei insurgents
had commenced. The Pacha of Scutari had re-
ceived orders to occupy militarily the villages of
Sevic and Kernue, of which the Montenegrins had
talc+-,n pos••ession. Prince Danib nf)w appears to
comprehend that he cannot ou this occasion resist.
Turkey, which will co,omence its expedition against
Montenegro as soon as troops shall have arrived. He
has, on the advice of the French consul, issued a
proclamation in which he disavows the Montene-
grins, who took part in the combats of Zubtu and
I,Treb'gne."

CAPTURE OF THE HAYMARKET

MURDERER.

Shortly after four o'clock this afternoon much
excitement was created in the vicinily of the Hay-
market on its becoming known that the foreigner,
charged with the murder of Eliza Toban in a
house in Arundel-court, Haymarket, on the morn-
ing of Wednesday last, bad been captured.
From certain infomation coming to the know-
ledge of Inspector Parks, of the City police this
morning, he started for Gravesend, and from
thence proceeded to a ship lying off Tilbury
Foit, called the Pride of the Thames, bound
for Monte Video, and there discovered the mur-
derer. He was immediately conveyed ashore, as
also was his luggage, and from thence brought to
Lond'in, and safely lodged in Vine-street police
station shortly after 4 o'clock. When placed before
the Inspector he gave his name as Giovanni Lath.
He is rather a tall man, of pale complexion, with
long black hair, and from the manner in which his
face was scratched it is inferred that the struggles
of the unfortunate woman must have been most
desperate

On being searched, the first thing discovered was
the watch belonging to the unfortunate victim.
In the travelling bag a number of other
articles, all belonging to tha murdered
woman were discovered, amongst which was the
black velvet jacket.
A person from the house in which the murder
was committed was then sent for, and immediately
the prisoner was declared to be the man who
had passed the night with Eliza► Toban, he
fell to the ground, and on hip recovering himself he
admitted having been with her on the evening in
question.

It is impossible, at the present time, to give any
further particulars, b u t on the prisoner's examination
at the Marlborough-street police-court, on Mon-
day, the whole of the facts in the possession of the
police will be made public.

PRUSSIA.

The Second Chamber of Prussia, on the 23d, after
having adopted the first articles of the bill for sus-
pending the usury laws, adopted at a late hour an
amendment by M. Reichensperger, declaring that
it must not be assumed that because the Chamber
consented to suspend the usury laws it prejudged
in any manner whatsoever the question of the sup
pression of those laws. Among the commercial
classes out of doors, a letter states, the adoption of
this resolution has not produced a favourable im-
pression.
