POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A RUFFIANLY BEGGAR.—Michael Spitler, an ema-
ciated, ill-looking fellow, with a withered arm, was
brought before Mr. Bingham on Saturday afternoon,
just before the closing of the court, charged with begging
in the public streets, to the great annoyance of several
ladies and gentlemen.

The prisoner is one of the most importunate and
ruffianly vagrants i❑ London, and has been for sometime
the terror of unprotected ladies, more especially to those
who happened to be in a certain interesting situation,
and it was only owing to the peresverance of Mr. Dighy
Boycott, of the Union Club, Trafalgar-square, that the
prisoner was on this occasion given into custody.
Mr. Boycott stated that on Saturday afternoon he
was in Piccadilly, when his attention was called to the
prisoner by seeing him go up to some ladies, one of
whom was enceinte, and, thrusting forward the withered
stump of his arm, demanded alms. Seeing that the ladies
were much annoyed at the prisoner's conduct, he went
up to him, when the prisoner had the audacity to beg of
him. A constable at that moment came up, and witness,
on public grounds, gave him into custody.
The prisoner, in a whining tone, made a long, rambling
statement, to the effect that he had been in the army,
where he bad lost the use of his arm. He bad been
knocked about a great deal, and was well known to Sir
Richard Mayne, the Chief Commissioner of Police. He
had no other means of getting a livelihood, and was very
sorry if he bad offended any one.
The officer who apprehended the prisoner said the
latter was in liquor, and when searched Is. 10d. was
found upon him.

Mr. Bingham severely admonished the the prisoner,
and said it was one of the worst cases of the kind that
ever came before hirc, and he would take care his
career should be stopped for a time at least. He should
therefore commit him to the House of Correction for a
month.

Mr. Bingham said the public were indebted to Mr.
Boyett for giving him into custody.
►STEALING LINEN.—John Carpenter was charged
before Mr. Beadon with stealing a basket of linen ♦alue
41. from a linendraper, and the property of a gentleman
named Montague.

The prisoner was seen to go behind the counter in
Regent street and lift off the basket of linen, lie was
running off with it when a constable stopped him and
took him in charge.
Remanded for a week.

ANOTHER blfrENsiVE FAILURE.

Late this afternoon a suspension was announced
which will occasion deep regret. The firm is that
of Messrs. Drnnistoun and Co., one of the largest
connected ith the American trade in Great Britain.
Their liabilities, it is feared, cannot be much short
of 2,000,0001. These are spread, however, very
extensively, and it may therefore be hoped will not
fall on any particular district with such force as to
cause further heavy disasters. Messrs. Dennistoun
have houses in New York and New Orleans, and
the almost total cessation of remittances from those
points has rendered their stoppage unavoidable.
The head r stAblisbment is in Glasgow, where it has
existed upwards of 70 years, and there are branches
in Liverpool and London. At Melbourne, in
Australia, they have as c ;rrespondents Messrs.
Dennistoun Br thers and Co., but happily that
firm w.ll not be compromised. The private pro-
perty of the partners in real estate and other pos-
sessions is known to be of great magnitude, and it
seems scarcely possible that even under the wont
circumstances their embarrassment can be more
than temporary. Although aneiety has ben felt
with regard to them-for several weeks past, their
honourable standing has never for a moment been
called in question, and there will be on all sides a
disposition to promote every arrangement that may
be calcula ed to hasten the possibility of a complete
resumption. Subjoined is the circular issued :
" of We have the painful duty" Nov. 7.
informing you
that
oar establishments in this country are obligee, by the
almost entire suspension of the usual remittances from
the United States, to ask you and their other creditors
to allow them time for the payment of their debts.
This necessity has arisen so recently out of the monetary
crisis in "America that it is not in our power to say
immediately what indulgence we may require, but while
awaiting further advices from abroad we will place our
books in the bandsof well-known accountants in London
and Glasgow with a view to prepare full statements of
our affairs, and we propose calling a meeting of our
creditors in London on the earliest possible day, when
we hope to lay before you such ajiproposal as will meet
with your approbation.
"Our houses of Dennistoun, Wood, and Co. of New
York, and A. and J. Dennistoun and Co. of New
Orleans, are identical with the houses in Great Britain,
but the house of Deonist,un Brothers and Co. of Mel-
bourne is a distinct establishment.

pre4ding.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption and the re-
part, and 'congratulated tha shareholders that a
dividend at the rate of 21 per cent. had bean earned
during the past half-year upan that portion of the
line which had been open).—Agreed to.

WIIITEHAVEN AND FURNESS JUNCTION.

The gross traffic receipts of this company for tue
half-year ended the 30th June last amounted to 10,4271.,
and the Expenditure to 5,1231. On comparing the figures
with those of the corresponding period of 1856, the in-
come shows an increase of 1,9291., and the expenditure
a decline of 3371. The balance from revenue for the
ball-year- is sufficient to pay the interest on the loans,
and will admit of a full dividend at the rate of 5x per
cent. -per annum on the preference shares, leaving a
balance on band of 311/.

The capital account of. this company, to which
3,000/. has been added during the past six months,

members, and the report was signed by only six, amongst
which was the nauie of Sir De Lacy Evans, who signed
under protest, and who said he would send in through

refused to sign the report, and stated that he would
send in on the part of himself, Generals Bentinck,
Wyndham, and Colonel Wetherall a statement of their

to prevent it going to the country that it was the unami-

and only a few slight wounds and contusions were

EPISODE IN THE HOUSE OP LORDS LAST NIGHT.--
.A.fg proxies were being taken in one of the divisions on
the Divorce Bill, which eventually gave the government
a ,majority of ten, a curious scene occurred. Seeking,
perhaps, only a cool seat on this, one of the hottest nights
in this the hottest of summers, the Earl of Suffolk had
betaken himself to one of the back rows of the epicopal
bench, now rendered almost vacant by reason of the
bishops being required elsewhere on diocesan duty. On
his declaring himself the holder of the proxy of a lay
peer, his exercise of it was pronounced by the opposition
to be informal, inasmuch as a standing order of the
house declared that no lay peer should speak or vote
from the episcopal bench. The government maintained
the validity of the proxy so tendered, whereupon a brist•
king discussion sprang up, which had a dash of the
lu-
aicrcus in it, from the circumstance that the peers, in
obedience to another standing order, remained seated all
the time. Further to complicate matters, the venerable
Marquis of Lansdowne, bimeelf the pattern of punctilio,
and setter of precedents, " rose" to dispute the supposed
standing order, and was good humouredly told to sit
down again. The contention about this single vote was
as fierce as if the voices of a hundred peers were in dis-
pute, and the committee actually divided as to whether
the proxy should be admitted or net. It happened that
just as many voted for the admission of the proxy as for
its rejection ; and, in accordance with another standing
order provided in such a case, the proxy was recorded,
and the government and their supporters gaine their
point.

DUBLIN, AUGUST 24.
EXAMINATION OF SPOLLEN AT CAPEL-STREET POLICE-

COURT THIS DAY.

James Spollen was brought before Mr. Porter,
the sitting magistrate, on a charge of stealing
money, the property of the Midland Great Western
Railway Company, over the value of 5/ , on the
13th of Nov., 1856. The prisoner presented the
same calm and collected appearance, though not to
the extent of unconcern and indifference which
marked his demeanour on former occasions. A
marked change was, however, visible in his per-
sonal aspect, and the whole visage has been so
changed that recognition from the portraits which
were exhibited on the trial would be rather difficult.

Mr. Corballis briefly stated the case, and called
some of the witnesses, who were examined at the
late trial, but no new evidence was produced. •
Mr. Porter having decided oh committing the
prisoner, asking him the usual question, if he had
anything to say—
Spollen—l decline for the present to say any-
thing till I have an opportunity of consulting
counsel.

Mr. Porter—l understand Inspector Ryan found
101. on the person of the prisoner, and he should
have that sum to enable him to procure profes-
sional assistance.

•
Spollen—That won't be sufficient for my pur-
pose. The gentlemen who conducted my defence
complained that they lost by defending mg.
Mr Kemmis explained that the Crown acted
mnst generously with the prisoner ; they gave him
201., although he had furniture worth 141.
On the application of the prisoner, his watch and
chain and other matters found on his person when
apprehended were delivered to him by direction
of the magistrate.
The prisoner was then removed.

WIMBLEDON AND DORKING.

The first ordinary meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the office, Great George street,
Westminster—Mr. Hackblock in the chair.

Mr. Horne, the secretary, read the report, which
stated that the Royal assent was given to the Act
of Incorporation on the 27th of July last. The
directors have received a tender from contractors of
undoubted responsibility stipulating the completion
of the line by the Ist of May next, and the com-
pany are already negotiating for the purchase of
laud, with a view to the immediate commencement
of the works.
Report adopted.

NORTH YORKSHIRE AND CLEVELAND.
The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at York on FridaY, Lord de Lisle and Dudley
presiding.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption and the re-
port, and congratulated the shareholders that a
dividend at the rate of 2i per cent. had been earned
during the past half-year upon that portion of the
line which bad been openei.—Agreed to.

WHITEHAVEN AND FURNESS JUNCTION.

The gross traffic receipts of this company for the
half-year ended the 30th June last amounted to 10,4271.,
and the expenditure to 5,1231. On comparing the figures
with those of the corresponding period of 1856, the in-
come shows an increase of 1,9291., and the expenditure
a decline of 3371, The balance from revenue for the
half-year is sufficient to pay the interest on the loans,
and will admit of a full dividend at the rate of 53 per
cent.• per annum on the preference shares, leaving a
balance on hand of 3111.

"Dr. Picktord is known to English readers by his frequent practi-

less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize--

likely to do much good."—Medical Circular.

LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 25, 1857.

The Divorce and Matrimonial Causes Bill has
had a narrow escape. The Chairman of Commit
tees, Lord REEDESDALE, was its inveterate oppo-
nent. He very nearly succeeded in causing its
rejection on Friday evening, by forcing on an
irregular discussion and division, for which the
Government were wholly unprepared. He was,
however, fortunately persuaded against pursuing
this factious course, and induced to act in a more
becoming manner. .A. considerable time was
wasted last night in wrangling about the original
wrangle, before the real business of the evening
was entered on !

At length the Noble Lord had
a legitimate op-
portunity of moving his proposition, which was
that the amendments adopted in the Souse
of
Commons should be taken int) consideration. that
day six months—or, in other words, that the
entire matter should be shelved during the pro.
sent session. The pretext resorted to for this
purpose was that there was no time to give proper
consideration' to the alterations. Never, however,
was an excuse more frivolous and vexatious. The
question had already been thoroughly
in the investigated
Upper House, and there was not a single
Peer in attendance who' had not thoroughly made
up his mind on every point. There was, how-
ever, a close struggle, and Lord REDESDALE'S at-
tempted obstruction was only defeated by a
majority of two !
Some few of the Commons' Amendments were
