OXFORD CIRCUIT.--WORCESTER, Dec..ls,

Criminal Court.—(Before' Mr. Justice Williams.)
James Lowe, 3), labourer, was charged with com-
mitting wilful and corrupt perjury, on the 28th of
November, 1859, at Dudley.
Mr. Kenealy appeared for the prosecution ; Mr.
Best and Mr. Byrne defended the prisoner.
This was anindictment for perjury, assigned upon
evidence given by the prisoner before two justices
of Worcestershire, upon the 23th of Nov. last. It
appeared that on the day in question an informa-
tion came on to be heard, before the justices, in
which the overseers of Tipton charged one Robert
Lakin with deserting his wife and family, and leav-
ing them chargeable to the parish. Lakin appeared
to defend himself against the charge, and called the
prisoner as a witness, to prove that his wife had
committed adultery with a man named James Att-
wood, and so justifying his withdrawal of an allow-
ance of £1 a-week, which he had for some time
made her. The prisoner then swore that one Satur-
day night he sawthe woman and Attwood drinking
together 'at a publichouse called the Violin ; that
ke saw them go together to the house of a Mrs.
Bagley ; and that he then watched them go toge-
ther to Mrs. Lakin's house, hcardthe door locked,
saw a light go upstairs, and then, looking through
the keyhole of the door, saw the parties commit the
adultery in the hause-place. The magistrates dis-
believed the prisoner's evidence, and this indictment
being preferred, Mrs. Lakin and her two daughters,
who were in the room at the time alleged, gave a
distinct contradiction to the prisoner's statement.
Mrs. Lakin said she was the mother of eight chil-
dren, and that about a twelvemonth ago she sepa-
rated from her husband, in consequence of his ill-
usage, but that h. 3 had regularly allowed her .£1 a-
week until the occasion now in question. She ad-
mitted she was in the Violin publichouse where
Attwood was, but she was in company with Mr.
and Mrs. Bagley, to whose house she after Wards
went. Attwood was of the party, and left Bagley's
house in her company, and, as she was informed
that her husband was watching her about, and she
was afraid of him, she got Attwood to see her safe
home. As soon as she and Attwood entered her
house, she heard her husband's and the prisoner's
voices outside the door, whereupon she bolted the
door for safety. She' said she then sat down and
took her youngest child, who was three years old,
and held it in her lap till Attwood left, and that
both' her daughters, who were 14 and 16 years
of age, remained in the room all the time Attwood
'was there. She denied that any itnpropriety what-
ever had taken place between them, a statement
which was confirmed by Attwood, as well as by the
two daughters, who were examined as witnesses.
Four other witnesses were examined who spoke to
statements made by the prisoner which were incon-
sistent with his sworn testimony, and it was sug-
gestedh

surveyed last year. Captain Pullen anticipated
reaching the latter place early in December, and
expects to be joined there about the middle of the
month by the Imperatriz, with part of the cable
on board. The Imperador, with the remaining part,
is looked for at Aden on the 10th proximo, and
will proceed at once with Mr. Newall, the contrac-
tor, and Mr. F.rde, the company's engineer, tojoin
the sister ship and the Cyclops at Knrrachee,
touching at the projected stations of Hallania and
Muscat on her way thither. If all goes well we may
hope to see a continuous telegraphic communication
established between India and Alexandria by the
end of January next. The process of paying out
the cable will commence at Kurrachee.

LA TV INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.)

SECONDARIES' COURT.
(Before Mr. Secondary Potter and a Special Jury.)
CROWN EXTENT.-THE QUEEN V. PARSONS.

This was an inquiry under a writ of extent in aid, pro-
secuted on behalf of the Crown, against the defendant, a
collector of Queen's taxes, who was a defaulter for moneys
received to the amount of £1,200. The defendant was de-
scribed as of Cambridge-terrace, Hackney, and the inquiry
was as to what moneys, chattels, and effects the defendant
was possessed within the bailiewick of the Sheriffs of the
City of London on the 9th of December last.
Mr. Whittle, one of the officers of the Sheriffs, produced
the writ, and proved that he had attached all moneys stand-
ing in the name of the defendant in the London and County
Joint-Stock Bank—that was all the property that he could
discover.
Mr. H. White, a clerk in the bank, proved the amount
to be £941 4s. 7d.
The learned Secondary directed the jury, who gave a
verdict for that amount.

THE EMPEROR'S NEW STABLES.—The principal
portion of the Emperor's stud has just been installed in
the buildings of the New Louvre, where, on the side to-
wards the quay in the Cour du Vieux Louvre and the
Cour Henri 111., every accommodation has been pro-
vided for ninety horses, with coach-houses, a riding
school and every necessary dependence. The stables
are arranged on the most approved system, and
all the fixtures and fittings are both ornamented
and perfectly adapted to their purpose. The parti-
tions of the stalls are carved oak, the racks bronze, the
mangers marble, and the chains steel. The columns are
covered with a new kind of stucco, equal to marble for
smoothness and polish. In the Cour Henri TH. there is
an iron staircase, of a very gentle slope, by which the horses
go up to the riding-school, situated on a level with the
picture gallery.

AQUATICS.

ROYAL LONDON YACHT CLUB.
The annual dinner of this celebrated club took
place yesterday at Willis's-rooms, St James's-street,
the worthy Commodore, Mr. A. Arcedeckne, pre-
siding. Nearly 150 gentlemen sat down to a din-
ner, consisting of every delicacy of the season,
flavoured with first-class wines.
On the removal of the cloth the Commodore pro-
posed the usual loyal and patriotic toasts, which he
succeeded with " Success to the Royal London
Yacht Club." After glancing at its career for years
he remarked, that the secret of success in a yacht
club was not only to get good members, but to
keep them ; a secret which this club had long ago
advised. He could congratulate the members upon
being a jolly, amiable, and agreeable set of fellows,
fully intent upon encouraging yachting; and the
only regret he experienced was, that they had not
had better entries for the valuable prizes they had
offered, but other clubs had been similarly situated.
He felt much pleasure in being able to state, that
the club numbered 600 members, and he hoped
they would, ere their next anniversary, increase
that number largely.
The other yacht clubs and a number of toasts
followed.
Miss Ransford and others too numerous to name
sung on the Occasion ; and the elegant embellish-
ments of the ball-room, just completed, were much
admired by all present, the painting by Agnesie
particularly.

A meeting of the Loudon General Omnibus Com-
pany was held yesterday—Mr. W. 11. Cosway in the chair,
After a protracted discussion it was resolved-that file reporl
and accounts be approved, and that the directors be autho-
rised to borrow £30,000.

him his noble an army around the
scaffold! A whole " Sovereign State" trembles to

execute one criminal !
A criminal—but is he a criminal? That is the
uo.stion which almost hinders them from" screwing
up their courage" to the strangling place. A criminal
—but will all the waters of the ocean wash from
Virginian history the crime of executing this cri-
minal ? Yes, these are the questions which make
Virginians' courage quail, as with swords, and mus-
kets, and artillery they muster around the sca.ffesld
of their victim. There is no army against them in
the field—no host even of undrilled men armed
with the weapons of war. No, there is nothing to
fear but the conscience of slumbering Virginia itself
—it is that which makes cowards of all her citizens
—she knows that she is perpetrating a crime which
thousands of the best Americans resent. She knows
that but for rifles and artillery, the might of right
would, perhaps, display itself spontaneously on the
spot ; and that the insulted conscience of men
might rescue a noble man from slaveholding
fury, as the army of the Israelites once saved
JONATHAN from his mad father's curse ; probably,
too, there was something to fear from the " happy
slaves"—the men of whom old BROWN had rescued
so many, and who, all helpless as they are, might
yet have been too strong for their relentless mas-

ters.
Well, the consolation is that hisblood has not been
shed in vain. To have spared him would do nothing
against slavery compared with his legal murder.
We in England remember how the legal murder of
a worthy missionary in Demerara, and the sending
home of two poor Baptist missionaries from Jamaica,
fired the eloquence of HENRY BROUGHAM, roused
a feeling here never known before, and was the
death-knell of slavery in our colonies ; and not
unlikely is it that the blood of this fine old man
may yet be the death of the system to which he is
sacrificed.

curable, when in reality they might be removed by the most
simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY,

And formerly §urgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the

Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professiontd life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of 'pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

ASSAULT IN A WORKHOUSE WITH A POKER.—Richard
Norman, 19, an inmate of St. Martin's Workhouse, was
charged with assaulting Charles Tregear, another inmate,
with a poker.
The complainant said that about eight o'clock that
morning the prisoner accused him wrongfully of having
taken away his (prisoner's) smock frock, which he denied,
and after a few words had passed between them, he seized
the poker froin the fire2place, and hit him on the head with
it.. He had a struggle with the prisoner, and succeeded in
getting the poker from him.
Au inmate of the house said he saw the prisoner flourish-
ing the poker about, to the danger of all the old people, and
saw the wound on complainant's head, but not the blow
given.
Mr. Bingham said the prisoner had certainly been brought
up in a very rough school.
The prisoner said he only took up the poker in self-
defence.
Mr. Bingham said even in his own defence he should not
Inc such a thing as a poker unless his life was in danger.
Even now the complainant might die from erysipelas from
such a blow as ho had received. There was very' great

would, perhaps, display itself spontaneously on the
spot ; and that the insulted conscience of men
might rescue a noble man from slaveholding
fury, as the army of the Israelites once saved
JONATHAN from his mad father's curse ; probably,
too, there was something to fear from the " happy
slaves"—the men of whom old BROWN had rescued
so many, and who, all helpless as they are, might
yet have been too strong for their relentless mas-
ters.

SPAIN AND MOROCCO.

The Madrid journals of the 11th mention a re-
port that the Government was about to borrow 100
millions of reals (25 millions of francs) from the
Bank, on deposit of securities. In the reconnaisance
which General Zavala made on the road to Tetuan
he saw that the Moors had a large body of cavalry
iu the :plain, and on the heights 4,000 infantry.
During his march, which was on the coast, throe
gunboats kept near him.
The following are extracts from the Gibraltar
Chronicle :

DEC. 3.

We have been permitted to give the accompany-
ing extract of a letter from the camp. It is from
a source which guarantees the clrrectness of its

statement :

" CAMP OP SERALLO, Nov. 27, 1859.
" We have had some skirmishes with the Moors, but
their attack on our lines on the 25th assumed the fierce-
ness and proportions of a battle. They made a feint upon
our right, and threw all their weight upon our left centre.
Tho fight lasted from one until four o'clock p.m., when
they were repulsed on all sides, with very heavy loss,
heaps of 80, 50, and more dead bodies, being found iu the
positions they occupied. It is well known the care they
take to remove their dead if not routed, as they certainly
were the day before yesterday. I calculate their
toss a
about 500 to 800 men hors de combat, among which 250
dead. Wo also suffered considerably, as they fought with
great determination, and the intimate knowledge of
these intricate forests and defiles is in their favour.
Our losses amount to 300 or 400 men altogether,
but many aro but slightly wounded. A batch of these
savages made a rush from an ambush upon General
Eclogue, shot his and his aide-de-camp's horses,
and carried away the tip of his fore finger ; he had
a narrow escape. His assailant was soon despatched.
My usual good luck attended me, although we had to
sustain the brunt of the enemy on our left centre. Should
the Moors meet us on less covered and broken ground all
the chances are against them.
" No account of the action of the 30th has been received,
except that contained in the ' Hoja Volante,' The only

ASSAULT IN A WORKHOUSE WITH A POKER. Richard
Norman, 19, an inmate of St. Martin's Workhouse, was
charged with assaulting Charles Tregoar, another inmate,
with a poker.

The complainant said that about eight o'clock that
morning the prisoner accused him wrongfully of having
taken away his (prisoner's) smock frock, which he deriied,
and after a few words had passed between them, he seized
the poker from the fire-place, and hit him on the head with
it. He had a struggle with the prisoner, and succeeded in
getting the poker from him.
An inmate of the house said he saw the prisoner flourish-
ing the poker about, to the danger of all the old people, and
saw the wound on complainant's head, lout not the blow
given.
Mr. Bing:lram said the prisoner had certainly been brought
up in a very rough school.

The prisoner said he only took up the poker in self-
defence.

Mr. Bingham said even in his own defence he should not
use such a thing as a poker unless his life was in danger.
Even now the complainant might die from erysipelas from
such a blow as he had received. There was very great
excess.
Fined 40s. or a month.

11118 DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Coastwise and by land carriage only a limited supply of
English wheat same to hand to-day; hence the show of
samples was very moderate, but in improved condition.
The attendance of buyers was far from numerous, yet the
demand for most kinds of wheat of home produce ruled
steady, at quite Monday's currency.
We were fairly supplied with foreign wheat. Fine dry
parcels were held for more money, and the value of other
qualities was well supported. Floating cargoes of grain
maintained their previous value. _

The few samples of fine malting barley on the stands
sold readily, at extreme rates. Grinding and distilling
sorts were dull, but not cheaper.
New malt moved off steadily ; old qualities heavily, at
late quotations.
There was a good consumptive demand for oats, at
extreme rates ; but both beans and peas were a slow sale.
The flour trade was healthy, on former terms.

AQUATICS.

ROYAL LONDON YACHT CLUB.
The annual dinner of this celebrated club took
place yesterday at Willis's-rooms, St James's-street,
the worthy Commodore, Mr. A. Arcedeckne, pre-
siding. Nearly 150 gentlemen sat down to a din-
ner, consisting of every delicacy of the season,
flavoured with first-class wines.
On the removal of the cloth the Commodore pro-
posed the usual loyal and patriotic toasts, which he
succeeded with " Success to the Royal London
Yacht Club," After glancing at its career for years
he remarked, that the secret of success in a yacht
club was not only to get good members, but to
keep them ; a secret which this club had long ago
advised. He could congratulate the members upon
being a jolly, amiable, and agreeable set of fellows,
fully intent upon encouraging yachting ; and the
only regret he experienced was, that they had not
had better entries for the valuable prizes they had
offered, but other clubs had been similarly situated.
He felt much pleasure in being able to state, that
the club numbered 600 members, and he hoped
they would, ere their next anniversary, increase
that number largely.
The other yacht clubs and a number of toasts
followed.
Miss Ransford and others too numerous to name
sung on the occasion ; and the elegant embellish-
ments of the ball-room, just completed, were much
admired by all present, the painting by Agnesie
particularly.

A meeting of the London General Omnibus Com-
pany was held yesterday—Mr. W. H. Cosway in the chair,
After a protracted discussion it was resolved that the report
and accounts be approved, and that the directors be autho-
rised to borrow £30,000.

[ADVERTI9EMENTI—HoIIoway's Pills and Ointment.—
Asthma, Coughs, Colds.—These complaints of the chest
come on with alarming frequency while the weather is un-
settled. At first the symptoms are readily remediable by
the joint influence of Holloway's remarkable medicaments.
While taking the pills as freely as the constitution will
comfortably permit, the ointment Should assiduously be
rubbed, at least twice a day, on the chest, and between the
shoulders, till a thick rash comes out, when the violence of
all symptoms will gradually give way, the breathing become
longer, and the oppression cease. No medicines are more
efficient in chest complaints. None can be used with equal
safety and certainty. Both pills and ointment are accom-
panied by very clear and simple directions for using them.

THE ARMY.

Major-General Bloomfield and Major Teesdale,
C. 8., have left Falmouth, the General having com-
pleted his inspection of the artillery iu the Western
District.

The powers of attorney at present held by Com-
manding Royal Engineers are cancelled, and simi-
lar powers issued to Controllers of Army Expendi-
ture, as it has been decided by the Secretary of
State.for War that it is the especial duty of the
latter officers to enter into all contracts, and sign
leases for letting War Department property at fo-
reign stations. The division of duties laid down in
circular 360 is in no way interfered with by this
arrangement.
The General Commanding-in-Chief having con-
curred with the Secretary of State for War in the
desirability of a more complete examination of the
Ordnance, mounted or on service at home and
abroad, being made at the inspections, in order that
the decision respecting it may be founded on satis-
factory data, directions are issued from the War-
office for the guidance of officers commanding Royal
Artillery and military storekeepers.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Oct. 22.

(Before Mr. Bodk,in, Assistant-Judge.)
Three sisters, named Julia, Ann, and Kate Nash,
were indicted for stealing a cup and saucer, value
£4, the property of Abraham Joseph ; a reticule,
value £3, the property of Edward Charles Spurin ;
and six scarves, value £2, the property of William
Russell.
Mr. Cooper prosecuted. Mr. Sleigh defended ,
Ann and Kate. Julia pleaded guilty.
The prisoners, who bore a remarkable likeness to
each other, it appeared went to the establishment of
Mr. Joseph, an importer of works of art, No. 92,
New Bond-street, on the 27th of September, and
after inspecting the gallery with the air of lady
connnoisseurs (they were fashionably dressed) left
without making any purchase, but having given a
good deal of trouble by asking about a thousand
and one questions. They had scarcely left the
premises, when Mrs. Joseph mentioned to her son
Felix something and he immediately missed a
valuable cup and saucer of Eastern manufacture
from a table, close to which the prisoners had stood,
and he went after them. He followed to Wood-
stock-street and Oxford-street, and back to Bond-
strdet, when he got a constable. Julia then left the
other two, and seeing Mr. Joseph, said to him, tre-
mulously " Oh, what did you say the price of that
was r and the next moment, Ann threw the cup
and saucer away into some dust, and they were
smashed. They were then all taken into custody.
Mr. Sleigh was cross-examining the witness, who
deposed to this, when the learned judge and the jury
suggested that the case was one that could not be
contested, the evidence being beyond dispute.
Mr. Sleigh said he certainly felt that the case
was hopelessly against his clients, and in fact he
had advised them to plead guilty.
The Jury then found them guilty.
A former conviction was then proved against all
three for a similar offence, for which they were each
sentenced by this court to twelve months' hard
labour.
Mr. Cooper then stated that there were two other
cases, and the prisoners seemed to have been doing
a considerable trade in this way ; in fact, there
could be no doubt that they were most accomplished
lady shoplifters. When they were taken, the pro-
perty relating to the other cases was found upon
them. Julia slipped a box with a child's alphabet

the three of them favoured Mr. Russell, of Burling-

pair of LtGekings, they walked off with two par-
cels of silk scarves, some of which were found
at where they had been lodging with a sister,
who had been doing all she . could to keep them
-honest, by setting up a school and getting employ-
ment honestly in various ways. When the police-
man took them they tore up duplicates, and the

THAMES,

DESTROYING PLATE GLASS.—Catherine Bryant, alias
Leary, a tall and strapping woman, was brought before Mr.
Selfe, charged with creating a disturbance in the Bird-in-
Hand public-house, Bow, Middlesex.
Mr. Francis Thornton, the landlord of the Bird-in-Hand,
said the prisoner came to his house on Saturday night and
called for a quartern of rum, and after she had put her fin-
gers in the liquor asked him to change it He refused to do
so, and she made use of the most horrible threats and lan-
guage, and threw part of the rum over a gentleman.'s back.
After some trouble he ejected her from the house, and she
then threatened to have his life, and said it she had to wait
20 years she would murder him. After more bad language,
she took up a large stone and deliberately hurled it against
a large pane of plate glass, which was broken to pieces. It
measured three feet eleven inches by fifteen inches, and its
value was 18s.

Mr. Selfe— I wish you publicans would not have such
expensive plate glass in your shop fronts. I shall fine the
prisoner 10s. only, and in default of payment 14 days' im-
prisonment. If she pays the 10s. it will be given to the
prosecutor.
The prisoner—l won't pay the money. I will do the
14 days.
Eliza Maxley was charged with breaking a pane of plate
glass in the Black Swan public-house, Bow.
Mr. Francis Penny, landlord of the Black Swan, said the
prisoner came there on Saturday night, made a disturbance,
and broke a pane of glass with a stone. He valued the
glass at 10s.
Mr. Selfe—l see by the police-sheet that you valued
your pane of plate glass at 75. 6d. on Saturday night.
Mr. Penny—l said from 7s. 6d. to 10s.
Mr. Selfc—The women in Bow appear to have a great
spite against publicans' plate glass. The prisoner is fined
7s. 6d., and in 10 days' imprisonment.
