MABYLEBONE.

A CRUEL HUSBAND.—OIiver Tomlin, a powerful man,
living at 36, Upper Carlisle-street, Marylebone, was
charged with committing a violent assault upon Elizabeth,
his wife.

Prosecutrix, whose bead and face was nearly covered
with wounds, and who appeared to be in a very weak con-
dition, said for a long time sho had been subjected to a
course of ill-treatment from her husband. Last Saturday
night he returned from his work, when, from some Un-
explained cause, he commenced abusing her, and continued
doing so, almost without intermission, the whole of Satur-
day night and Sunday. At 3 o'clock yesterday morning
ho pulled her out of bed, and for upwards of an hour he beat
her about the head, face, and body, with his clenched fist,
swearing all the time that he would murder her. Ho then
knelt on ber body, and pulling her right hand to his mouth
he knawed at it, and ultimately made his teeth meet
through her hand. Her cries alarmed a police constable,
who took the prisoner into custody.
A number of witnesses were called, who proved that the
prisoner was in the habit of brutally illtreating his wife.
The prisoner said his wife was in the habit of remain-
ing out all night drinking with strangers.
Mr. Mansfield sent him to hard labour at the House of
Correction for one month.

TEA.• - There has been very little business transacted,
the trade having postponed their operations until the public
sales, which commence to-day.

vious quotations.
COFFEE.—There has been a good demand for all descrip-
tions of Ceylon produce, and Plantation of superior quality
has sold readily at full rates.
RicE.—The demand has continued active for cleared
descriptions, and holders in some instances demand a
further slight advance.

TALLOW.—The Tallow Market has been dull during the
week ; the arrival and delivery on contracts of a small
amount of tallow have caused prices to give way; 455. 3d.
would have been accepted at on; time for the last three
months. Towards the close, however, thero was rather
more steadiness, but with little business doing.

THAMES.

EXPENSIVE AMUSEItIENT.—James Cooke, a stoker, em-
ployed on one of the river steamers, was brought before
Mr. Partridge, charged with assaulting three police con-
stables.

Last night the prisoner was given into the custody of
Braybrook, a police-constable, No. 92 II,!for assaulting a
man with whom ho had been drinking, and whose nose
was bleeding at the time. Ile made a violent assault on
Braybrook, and a seveio struggle took place. A second
constable, named Smith, of the K division, soon arrived,
and he was also struck and knocked down. A third con-
stable arrived, and ho was felled. When he got up the
prisoner was so very savage and desperate that ho took out
his staff and disabled him, by striking him several times
on the arms. The united exertions of the three constables
and others were requested to convey him to the station
house.

Mr. Partridge said he was very glad the prisoner had
not been struck on the head by the police-constable, who
was quite justified in using his staff after the prisoner had
acted so violently, and committed three assaults in addi-
tion to the one for which ho was given into custody. no

LONDON, TUESDAY, SEPT. 18, 1866.

The Imperial Circular will naturally be the chief
object of attention in all political circles to-day, and
yet it cannot be said to contain anything new, and
is more a commentary on recent events than any-
thing else. Still it is something that no more is
said, and many will, doubtless, rejoice at the apparent
certainty of peace which it presents. The Circular
is of considerable length, and is written in that
emphatic style and impressive language which gene-
rally characterises all State documents in France.
It is sent to the representatives of the EMPEROR in
foreign countries, and is evidently intended to
put a stop to those rumours which have lately
been afloat, and which have created so much
dismay and confusion as to the probability of France
going to war. M. LA VALLETTE has executed
his difficult task with considerable adroitness, and
contrived to make it understood that France has
nothing to fear from '6lle increase of power in Prussia.
flow long she will remain on good terms with that
arrogant and offensive Power is quite another ques-
tion ; but meanwhile the EMPEROR'S Minister for
Foreign Affairs hastens to assure those who are
accredited at foreign courts that there is no cause
for apprehending a termination of the present peace-
ful state of things. He states that in presence of
the considerable changes that have taken place in
Germany all States must ask themselves what will
be the influence of this late peace upon European
order, and Upon the international frontier of each
Power? It is then to allay the anxiety naturally
created in France

Plain statement.
feeling at home h The perplexity of
Las spread abroad, and hence the
necessity of an explanation. The Treaties of 1815
have never been popular
in France, and it is not,
therefore, surprising that Satisfaction should have
been experienced at their being destroyed; but, on
the other hand, the cause that has led to their de_
struction is in itself a source of arrogance, namely,
the aggrandisement of Prussia to so considerable
an extent.

According to the definition here given there is
nothing for France to dread or to regret in the late
extensive alterations that have taken place, but
how long this coleur de rose aspect will
continue it is, of course, difficult to de-
termine ; however, for the present, no doubt
it will answer the end designed, and restore tran-
quillity at home and abroad. We do not agree with
much that appears in this remarkable circular,

pRoVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE,
FOR
HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
•
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.G.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &e.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give broad and coals to poor families
in want.. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning ' the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.

gratefully received by the Lev. D. GILBERT, D.D., No, 22,

TIMOWING MUD INTO Tlir THAMES.—John Cockerell
and Frederick Cooper, navvies, and Edward Oliver, a
lighterman, of 40, Salisbury-street, Bermondsey, were
charged, under the. 20th and 21st Victoria, the Thames
Conservancy Act, 1837, with throwing mud into the River
Thames.

Inspector Fricker, of the Thames Police, said that from
information received on the Monday evening he wont in a
boat, with two constables, up the river, and when off
Cremorne saw a barge drifting down in charge of Oliver.
He heard the splash of something being thrown into the
Thames, and went alongside the barge. He saw the two
navvies throwing mud overboard. She had contained 25
tons of mud, which had been taken from a dock just above
Waterloo-bridge, arid all had been thrown into tho river but
about a ton. The prisoners inculpated another, and Oliver
said he had been employed by a contractor named Fitz, of
Cherry-garden-street. This was not the first load of mud
that had been disposed of in this way.

Oliver had no defence ; he had been employed to take it
to Wandsworth, but missed the tide. The other prisoners
pleaded ignorance of the law.
Mr. Selfe said it was the most outrageous thing he had
heard for a long time, and having pointed out that they
were liable to a £2O penalty, fined tho two "navvies" ss.
each, and Oliver £s—in default of distress, seven days' and
one mouth's imprisonment.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

VIOLENT ASSAULT THROUGH &YE NGE.—Catlielille liar-
risen, a well-dressed female, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with violently assaulting Minnie Wilson, who,
as well as the prisons; is an " unfortunate."
Mr. Edward Dillon Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street,
appeared for the prosecution, and said the present case
arose out of ono which occurred two years ago, when a
man named Howard, the keeper of a night-house in
tke Haymarket, was charged at that court with
the abduction of the present prosecutrix, and
committed for trial, and sentenced to two years' imprison-
ment. At that time the prisoner Harrison made herself
very conspicuous, and threatened that she would do the
prosecutrix some grievous bodily harm. Last night she
mot the prosecutrix, threatened to murder her, and suiting
the action to the word, struck her with something on the
forehead. A constable coming up fortunately prevented
any further mischief being done, there being little doubt
that, but for his timely arrival, some serious injury would
have been done.

Theprosecutrix said that about two years ago she was a
witness on the prosecution of a man named Howard, and
the prisonor then threatened that she "would do for her."
Tho prisoner was ono of the women kept in Howard's
house, anight house. Last night the prisoner walked up
to her in Regent-street and said, "I'll walk you to-night,
my lady." She spoke to a constable, and' ho said 'that if
the prisoner assaulted her he would lock her up. She
walked on, and shortly after the prisoner walked
up to her and struck her on the forehead, causing
a wound. She believed the prisoner bad some-
' thing in her hand, but could not say what. Tho prisoner
had before broken an umbrella over her and torn her
clothes, but she had forgiven her. She, however, believed
that Howard was the instigator of the treatment she re-
ceived, as on the previous night, after leaving Vine-street,
he came up to her and said that if she appeared that
morning she would get something.
A police-constable said the prosecutrix came up to him
bleeding from a wound in the forehead, and he took the
prisoner into custody, but she had no instrument upon
her.

The prisoner said sho was insulted by a man of the pro-
secutrix's acquaintance—the man going by the name of
"Lolly Dolby," and the prosecutrix had also insulted her,
which she was prepared to prove by the evidence of a
"lady" in court.
Fanny Stewart, an unfortunate, the " lady" referred to,
said that "Kato" did slap the prosecutrix's face becaas©
she called her an offensive name, but that she had nothing
in her hand. They afterwards smacked each other.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he did not believe the witness. Tho
prisoner was on Howard's side, and no doubt for that rea
son felt an animosity against tho prosecutrix. He should
impose no fine, but commit the prisoner for 21 days, and
if any complaint was made against Howard, and he was
brought before him, he should know how to deal with

him.
The prisoner begged of the magistrate to impose a fine,
and not send her to a prison, but Mr. Tyrwhitt refused to
alter his decision.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
(Before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn and Justices

Blackburn, Mellor, and Lush.)

THE QUEEN V. WINSOR, THE WHOLESALE MURDERESS.

The Attorney-General resmAed his arguments
this morning, at the conclusion of which
The Lord Chief Justice said that the question in
this case had been so recently decided in a case that
came before the court, and bad been so fully dis-
cussed during the last two days, that he did not
consider any benefit would result from the court de-
laying their judgment. He was fortified in that opi-
nion by the fact that all the judges were unanimous
in their decision. He had no hesitation in giving
his decision that the judge
,had a discretion to
discharge a jury on what he considered sufficient
ground. It was not a maxim of English juris-
prudence that an abortive trial prevented a
new trial, and after carefully considering all
the arguments the Court was of opinion that they
had no other course than to pronounce in favour of
the Crown.

The other judges concurred with his lordship,
and the conviction of the prisoner is accordingly
affirmed.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.

defendant having suffered judgment to go by de-
fault. The plaintiff, aged 35, had been manager
to some first-class hotels in the west of England,
and had given up her place, and the defendant was
shown to be in a good position of life. After
hearing the evidence, the jury awarded £340
damages.
