MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—JtcIy 5.

(Before 'Mr. Payne.)
John Line 38, described ,as a brewer, was in-
dicted for unlawfully assaulting James Beresford,
with intent feloniously and violently to steal goods,
dm, from his person.

This was a very singular case. The prosecutor,
an elderly gentletnan,partly paralysed, lived at 6, H
Gloucester-cottages, averstock-hill, and on June
19, having been out a short time, he was passing
from the gate in front of the house to the door,
when a man (the prisoner) sprang upon him from
behind a tree, threw him down, and grasped him
tightly by the throat. He struggled wilt him, and
cried out "Murder," when a man named King ran
up and licld the prisoner until a polic -man came up
and took him in charge: \Veen the prosecutor got
got up his watch was dangling from his pocket, and,
under the Supposition that the prisoner intended
to steal it; he charged him with hiving iiAaulted
him with tho obj-ct of committing that offend.
The prisoner, in his defence, said it was far from
his intention to commit any criminal act when this
transaction took place. He had gone through the
gat,, the heur being late and the night dark, for a
natural purpose, end when he was about to leave,
the prosecutor came against him al, he was turning
round, and ac idental7 fell down; crying " air-
der." Persons came up, and to his utter amaze-
ment he was charged with attempting to rob the
old gentleman. He did not live mote than a hun-
dred yards from where it occur*, and as to his
character, he had been in basiness with his father
as a brewer at Rochester, also at Windsor, where
he was burnt our, and on the very day that it oc-
curred he had been in negotiation with a brewer's
aaent about a businetis which he had to d;spose of. ,
That was all he hail to say, and he trusted he snould
he acquitted by the jury.
A.:Mr. Jones, who said he was a brewei'a agent,'
corroborated:the latter 'nit of the priseuer's state-'
ment, and gave him a good character fur the pet Ed
he had known him, about three years.
Mr. Payne told the jury it was a case peculiarly
for them to determine. It was, to say the least of
ir, a very su.picious matter, but he should advise
them either to acquit the prisoner altogether, or,
if they.thought the evidence sufficient, v.) convict
hint of the whole charge, as there was no count for
a.saolt only. . •

The jury sa:d they were agreed as to an assault,
I;ut tnout2ht there was no intention to rob the pro-
secutor oil the part of the Thisoner.
This was ent,ereci, under the direction of the
cone, as a verdict of not guilty, and the.pro,•ecutor
having.stated that. he did not wish to indict the
prisoner for assault, he was discharged.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day )

HOUSE OF LORDS.-APPEALS.

MORGAN AND ANOTHER V. MORRIS ET AL EX PARTE AS TO
CERTAIN RESPONDENTS.

This was an appeal from a decieion of the Second
Division of the Court of Session in Scotland altering
the verdict of the jury finding that Alexander was not
heir at law of the late John Morgan, of Coate's-crescent,
Edinburgh, and that Alexander and James Morgan were
not his next of kin.

The Lord Chancellor said that the alteration on the
verdict by the Court of Session was cually uncertain
as the verdict itself. His lordship ordered a new trial
and dismissed the appeal.
Lord Brougham, Lord Cranworth, and Lord Wensley-
dale entirely concurred.

STATE OP THE RIVER THAMES.

[The followin appeared iu part of our impression of yes.
terday :]—

The Parliamentary inquiry into the state of the river
Thames re-assembled this morning in No. 11 committee-
room, for the purpose of reporting on Mr. G. Gurney's
plan and hearing witnesses. The members present
were—Mr. Kendall (chairman), Lord J. Russell, Lord
John Manners (First Commissioner of Public Works ,
Lord Palmerston, Alderman Cubitt, Sir J. Yarde
Buller, Sir J. Shelley, Mr. Tite, Sir B. Hall, Mr.
Ackroyd, Hon. Jocelyn Percy, &c. The room was
crowded to excess.
The first witness called was

Mr. Bateman, who said—l am a civil engineer. I have
been employed on the water works at Alanchester and
Glasgow. lam still engaged in improving the Clyde—
it is in a very offensive state. Where there is a great
quantity of mud on the banks of a river it is important,
where such is exposed to the action of the sua, that
it should be immediately removed to prevent decomposi-
tion and effluvia. There are no mud banks on the river
Ir well, yet it smells most offensively. There is a sewer
in Glasgow which receives the discharge from certain
chemical works, which renders the sewage from this par-
ticular place inodorous, and the sewage coming from
thence, on being mix sd with other foul sewage, renders it
inodorous. I don't know how this is occasioned, but
such is the fact. I am, therefore, strongly of opinion,
and Dr. Anderson agrees with me, that it is possible to
disinfect sewage by solvents on its progress by precipi-
tation.

By Mr. Acroyd—There are no mud banks in the
Irwell in consequence of its being all deep water. The
river has been artificially dredged, and the Rides walled.
Some of tho sewage, of course, comes back after it has
been discharged into it, but more goes out than comes
back, or the estuary would be filled up. I hope that it
will be po7,sible to deal with the sewers by solvent chemi-
cal agents in so perfzet a manner that the whole of the
sewage would be deodorised in its passage through them
without leaving any precipitation.
The room was here ordered to bo cleared, and after a
short absence the public were admitted.
Mr. Lawes was examined by the Chairman. He said
—I have been to Leicester and examined the sewage
works there. Leicester is a large place, and has no
means of getting rid of the sewage, which is excessively
bad, except by the procees adopted.
Chairman—How far are the works from the town?
Witnesi—About half a mile.
Chairman—And no ill effects arose to the town ?
Witness—None whatever.

Chairman—What is the process ?
Witness—The process is to collect the whole of the
sewage in a large vat, and then allow :t to subside. The
clear liquid is then run off into the river, and the deposit
is carted away, and used as manure.
Cnairman—How is this deposit got out of the vats ?
Witness—.By wheelbarrows and carts.
C iai, man—What is your opinion of the process as a

A. regimental order was yesterday evening issued
in the Artillery Garrison, Woolwicb, by direction
of Gener4l Sir W. F. Williams, commandant, for
the assembling of the troops of the Royal Horse
Artillery and the field batteries on Woolwich-
common, to be reviewed to-day, and to form a line
at '2 30 p.m. The troops will Le supplied with
blank ammunition. General Williams has signi-
fied his intention to be present.
The entire battalion of Royal Marines at Wool-
wich were yesterday drawn out on Woolwich-com-
man, in command of Lieut.-Colonel Fleming, and
were put through a variety of infantry movements.
The battalion is considerably reduced in numbers
through sickness, leave of absence, and other
causes, and at the present moment scarcely exceeds
600 men.

The freight-ship Balaklava yesterday shipped
a cargo of military clothing for her Majesty's
troops in Cape Town.
The galvanic battery usually employed at the
proof butt in Woolwich Arsenal having been read-
justed and repaired, is again rendered available for
the purpose of proving guns. A large number of
8 and 10 inch and 68 pounders received from the
Lowmoor and other contractors are ordered to be
fired at the rate of 15 per day. The first batch of
15 were fired yesterday, and stood the test well.
Mr. Eastman's American breech-loading cannon,
six in number, and which were purchased by Go-
vernment upwards of 12 months ago, are still lying
on the Arsenal-wharf untouched. Mr. Mallet's
mammoth mortars, although purchased at an enor-
mous cost, are, it appears, also considered to be
equally valueless, as the second and smaller one
remains in the spot on the Arsenal wharf where it
was first landed, and the first, repeatedly damaged
and repaired, will rot, it is said, be subjected to
any further evidence of the inefficiency of the
invention.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-(YESTERDAY.)

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.

Lord ST. LEONARDS said, seeing the noble lord
the Postmaster-general in his place, be begged to ask
him a question relative todirections given to postmasters
with respect to the delivery of letters. It appeared that
a person bad endeavoured to obtain a situation by means
of a false character, in order to do which he had applied
at the poet-office) at Aylesford for a letter directed to a
person residing in the neighbourhood, which had been
given him without proper inquiry being made whether
he was authorised to receive it or not.
Lord COLCHESTER explained that the post office
mentioned by the noble and learned lord was of itself a
small village, although letters for a large district were
received there, consequently persons applying for their
letters at the window received them. But had it been a
large town such a proceeding would not be sanctioned,
the directions given to the post-masters being that no
persons but letter-carriers should receive letters for
delivery.
RAILWAY LEGISLATION.

Lord REDESDALE presented a petition signed by
600 holders of shares in railways, representing
3,000,0001., who complained that although a sum of
saoney amounting to 300,000,0001. had been invested i•
railway undertakings in Great Britain, the Government
had never laid down a national system of constructing
railways, and the consequence had been that the deci-
Lions of the railway committees had been conflicting and
uncertain, and consequently a large and useless expendi-
ture of money, and an e•ncouragement of acts of aggres-
sion on the part of one railway towards another. The
petition prayed their lordships to make some general
declaration of principle, by the application of which
uniformity of decision would hereafter be obtained.

comfortable position indicated by the old proverb,
respecting those who attempt to sit on two stools.

We do not for a moment wish to make more j
of this last division on the Ballot than it is
worth but its so-called Liberal opponents can
gain nothing by making too little of it. We
ought to know the mind of the best of the Liberal
party pretty well, and we are confident that they
care little whether, the present Ministry, or some
hodgepodge of the-old Whig Ministries bring in
the Reform Bill next year, provided the Ballot be
omitted. They perfectly well know that any
Reform Bill would be nugatory without it. They
know that—whether RUSSELL shuffled the cards in
favour of the Whigs, or DISRAELI in favour
of the Tories—whether a few boroughs
more or less were extinguished—whether it
was preferred to create districts of boroughs
rather. than to abolish any—whether the county
franchise were extended more or less—whether
new divisions were attempted, or whether any
attempt were made to proportion representatives
to constituencies—whatever be done, all will be
of little avail towards an honest representation
till each elector," like his fellow Engli3hmen
in Australia, is secured against the resentment
of those who can injure him, on the same prin-
ciple on which members of courts-martial are now
protected. Unless, therefore, the Whigs make
up their minds to put the independence of the
voter in the forefront of their programme, they
will leave to Conservatives the prestige of bring-
ing in the New Reform Bill.

PARIS, THURSDAY.

It is reported that their Majesties of Spain have
been invited by the Emperor Napoleon to be pre-
sent at the fetes at Cherbourg.

Previous to the Emperor's leaving Plombieres,
he proceeded on foot to the promenade of St. Loup,
where the garrison was drawn up in line, with
colonel and band. His Majesty reviewed the troops,
and distributed some decorations to the officers
and men. He also reviewed the national guard of
Plombieres, and afterwards received the adieux
of the municipal council. Loud cries of " Vive

I'Emporeur 1" were raised by the people as-
sembled, who, notwithstanding the early hour,
had mustered in considerable numbers. His Ma-
jesty afterwards got into a travelling carriage with
General Bevy, M. de Latour d'Auvergne, and M.
Moccinard, and proceeded towards Vesoul. Other
carriages followed with the imperial suite. All
the postillions were dressed in the old costume,
and had their hats ornamented with ribbons.

So heavy a fall of rain took place in Paris
yesterday afternoon about four o'clock that the

insult lately mentioned as having been offered to
the Prussian flag at Belgrade :—" As the servants

in accordance with their custom, in front of the
house, an old Turk, named Osman Musta Bey
Glawinitsch, who before the independence of Servia
posses7.ed large estates, and has now become very

arrested, and the 'Prussian Consul demanded
prompt satisfaction, which the Pacha promised
should be accorded."

Ointment and Pills —These extraordinary medicines are daily
revealing their wonderful properties. Mr. Ta'lor, druggist"
of Rothesay, writing, May 4, 1858, says :—" I bear of nu-
merous cures being effected by the use of your medicines--
one of which I will mention. It is of a labouring man, who
was so ill with rheumatism, that he could not move either his
arms or his legs without the most excruciating pain, and wit!
was completely cured by the use of your Pills and Ointmentf:
These medicines also will cure lumbago, wens, tumours stirjoints, contracti ,ns, enlargements, and glandular swellings.

LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY.

The of Washington, from New
Yo
arrived this evening, bringing
415 passengers, and over half a million dollars in
steamship
on teaith, City
them ip

specie.
Tile steamship Austria, from Southampton, ar-
rived out on the 16th.
The news is but little later than that brought
by the Anglo-Saxon. A Washington despatch to
the New York Herald says it is reported that a
special messenger left yesterday for Mexico, carry-
ing despatches to Minister Forsyth from Washing-
ton, approving his suspension of diplomatic inter-
course with that country, and directing the with-
drawal of the Legation, and its return to the United
States. It is understood that General Scott has
issued preparatory orders tor all the available troops
on the Atlantic seaboard to be ready to reinforce
the army in Washington territory.
A detachment of 400 men would sail from New
York on the 20th inst. in a special steamer for
Aspinwall. These movements are consequent upon
the defeat of Colonel Steptoe's command.
The correspondent of the York Herald in
Mexico writes that the persons recently sent out
of the country, with the exception of Americans,
had been invited to return ; but we find an official
proclamation in a Mexican paper which repeals
forced loans on foreigners without exceptions.
Details have been received of a disastrous earth-
quake on the 18th June in the Valley of Mexico.
The loss of life is estimated at 50 persons, and that
of property in the City
of .Mexico alone at from
five to six millions.
A terrible and distressing accid.int took place on
the 15th on the Now York and Erie Railroad, by
which six persons were instantly killed, and nearly
40 more woueded. The night express train en-
countered a broken rail five miles from Port Jervis,
when two cars were thrown off the track down an
embankment which, at this point, is nearly 30 feet
high and very steep. A collision had also occurred
on Jackson Railroad on the 16th with a mail train,
by which many persons were injured.
There is no later commercial news from New
York, but the agent of the Associated Press has re-
ceived the following life intelligme e :
NEW ORLEANS, 16th.—Our cotton market has
been firm, with slight improvement on middling,
&c. The sales to-day were 3,000 bales ; sales of
the week, 13,500 bales ; receipts, 4,350 bales ; in-
creased receipts at this port, 11,250 ; ditto at all
•i ports, 140,000 ; stock, 54,170 bales. Freights to
Liverpool, ()id.
London, England, 1858-07-30

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 25th publish details
of the arrival of the Queen and King at Valladolid.
A telegraphic despatch in the Gazette says that on
the 24th the Queen and King remained at Valla-
dolid, but it gives no account of their movements.
The Discusion, bad been seized. At BArcelona,
the beat was extraordinarily great, and several
wealthy families bad quitted the city.

" The Secretary of till United States Legation at
Constantinople," say a letter from Beyrout in the
Bedouins, who had been given
Vienna Gazette, "arrived here on the 3d, having
in his cu.tody five
up to him to be puntThed as murderers of an Ame-
rican family at Jaffa."

AAthens of the 17th, in the Aus-
trian Vienna, says :--"The French
letterGazettfero ofm
steamer yesterday brought the news that the Ails-
triau consul at Retimo, in Candia, who also con-
ducted the French consulate, bad, after hauling
down the Austrian flig, left the place in cor43e-
quence of acts of violence commtted against the
consulate by the Turks."

AMENDMENT OF THE CRIMINAL LAW.
Lord CAMPBELL said he begged to give notice that
he intended to introduce two bills on very important
subjects. His object in giving notice was that public
attention might be drawn to the subject in order that he
might obtain advice and assistance for which he should
feel eratefel. The first bill was to prevent persons clau-
destinly proceeding before grand juries and preferring bills
of indictment against parties for conspiracy, perjury, and
obtaining money under false pretence-,,upon which of the
warrants issued per,ons were taken into custody and
imprisoned before any investigation could take place.
Now he proposed that no such proceeding should be taken
until there had been an examination before a magistrate,
or the assent of one of her Majesty's judges or Attorney-
Geuersl ha 1 been obta.ned. T.e other bill related
to verdicts of juriss.
j At the present time the unapi-
MOUS verdict of the jury grag obsoletely necessary, and
great inconvenience existed in con-equence of a small
portion of a jury remaining opposed to the remainder
What he proposed was not to be governed by the majority
of the jury, but if, after certain deliberation, it
was impossible for all to agree to one verdict,
than the decision of the majority was to be taken and
considered as the verdict of the whole body. Of course
such verdict would be subject to be reviewed by the
superior court
GLEBE nOLL'iES,

Viscount DUNGANNON gave notice of bil inten-
tion, provid ng the subject was not taken up by tht
eccltBia.stlcal bench, to bring in a bill to regulate the
repairs of glebe bonae4.
THE ROYAL ACADEMY.

Lord LYNDHURS r gave notic-, that next s3sFinn he
should call the attentton of the house to the Royal
Academy, first, as to its accommodation ; secondly, to
the schools which for a number of years it bad supported
at its uwn expense ; thirdly, to the management of the
funds of the institution ; and, fourthly, to its future
location. (Hear, hear.) He need not inform their lord-
ships that he took the deepest interest in the subject.

THE VACANT SPACE NEAR ST. PAUL'S.
In reply to the Eirl of ETARRINGTt N,

E:zrl DERBY said he bad wade inquiries with respect
to this piece of ground. He found that it was pro-
posed only to build upon half the ground, and
as the erection would be of a asenu-circular form
the view id St. Paul's would not be impeded. The value
of the ground was estimated at ab,ut 90,0001., and a-
the city oily proposed to appro_iriate half of it, it would
be snaking a .acrifice of between 45,0001. and 50,000/. for
the bane& of the pub ic. (Hear, hi-ar.)

Our market this morning was well attendO, and more
firmness prevailed. Wheat, both English and foreign,
sold to a fair extent, at about the extreme rates of last
week. Flour not so much in request, but recovered the
decline during the week. Oats brought full prices, whilst
oatmeal must be quoted 6d to is per load dearer for choice
qualities. Other articles unchanged.

DENMARK.

A letter from Copenhagen says :—" The seizure
( fleeted at Stettin by the Prussian authorities cf
seven trading vessels bearing the Danish flag has
produced an unusually great sensation here. In
addition, information has reached us that an
eighth Danish vessel has been forbidden to leave
the port of Stettin. It is impossible to compre-
Lend the motives which can have induced the
Prussian Government to select the present moment
to suddenly apply a royal order of 1822, which
prescribes the seizure of the vessel and cargo when
a foreign trader is found to be engaged in the coast-
ing trade between one Prussian port and another.
That excessively severe measure, now exercised
against our flag, can be the less ex-
plained that by a reciprocal convention the
Prussian Government itself engaged to con-
tribute—as it has done for several years—to
the expenses of navigation of our steamer, the
Geiser, which conveys regularly letters, pavenger.s,
and goods from Copenhagen to Swinemuude and
Stettin. That is certainly to carry on the coasting
trade in a Danish vessel between Prussian ports,
and yet no objection was ever made to the practice.
It may be looked on as certain that Denmark,

will not neglect any means afforded it by its naval
superiority to insist on its rights and ob'ain com-
plete satisfaction for the seizure and prolonged de-
tention of the eight vessels. It is stated that an
energetic note has been addressed to Prussia by
the Danish Government, and that our envoy at
Frankfurt is charged to represent all that is strange
in such an act, particularly at a moment when Den-
mark, by large concessions, proves her pacific and
conciliatory sentiments."

ROY.AJ, ITALIAN OPERA.

The producti'oi i of" Don Giovanni," with Signor I
Mario in the ci mracter of the dauntless libertine,
and Signor Rot i loni in:that of his faithful attend-
ant, has been la qg looked forward to as an event
cf unusual inter 'st, and its fulfilment last night
was witnessed by the most crowded audience that
has been seen wi thin the walls of the new theatre.
For the present t ye can bat record the complete
success of the performance. Those who expected
to see in Sig not • Mario a Don Giovanni unprece-
dentedly ham Isol ne and gallant, and noble in bear-
ing, were not dis appointed ; and those who antici-
pated a want of due effect in the music through
the changes n‘lcessltated in order to de-barytonise
the part, were mistaken in their previsions. The
mina' encore!; occurred in the usual places,
and the reception of Signor Mario, who was called
forward betweezt the acts and at the fall of the
curtain, was awl .t enthusiastic.
