SCEIVE BETWEEN THE POPE AND THE

DUC DE GRANONT.

The Nazione of Florence of the 21st contains, in
its Roman correspondence, the following account
of a scene between the Pope and the Due de Gra-
rnont, occasioned by the order given to a Signor
Venturelli, a Sicilian naturalised in France, to, leave
Rome within a fortnight :--

" The arbitrary acts committed by the Papal
Government are so numerous that it would be
easier to count the sands of the sea; and these acts
are perpetrated not only on its own unhappy sub-
jects, but likewise on the subjects of other govern-
ments. I now record one which has excited consi.
derable attention in Rome, having been committed
against a certain Signor Venturelli, the secretary of
the Salamanca Company for the Roman railways.
This Signor Venturelli is a Sicilian, who has be-
come naturalised in France, where he married and
brought up a family. It,is true that in 1848 this
gentleman took part in the Sicilian revolution, but
that he afterwards became naturalised in France,
and wholly abandoned politics, confining his atten-

Lion to commerce. He formed a connection with
Signor Salamanca, was his agent in several of his
undertakings, and possessed his entire confidence.
In Rome his prudence was such as to create the
belief that he had completely forgotten that he
was an Italian and a Sicilian, so that ho was even
taxed with too great servility towards the Papal
Government. All at once the police gave notice
to Signor Venturelli that he must leave Rome and
the Roman States within 15 days, and this on
account of the express command of his Holiness.
Venturelli was thunderstruck, and asked some ex-
planation about the most holy decision of the most
Holy Father, but the only answer he could get
was, that the Holy Father is the sole judge of what
is right, and gives no reason for his actions ; that
he does everything by Divine inspiration, and is
infallible. As Venturelli is almost indispensable
to the Salamanca Company in Rome, all the rail-
way grandees were in motion ; some of their people
attached to the Court were also busy about this
matter, but the Pope remained unmoved, and, in-
sisting that Venturelli was his own personal enemy,
repeated that he must take his departure without
delay. Even the Spanish general, Cordova, who
interested himself in Venturelli's behalf, returned
from his audience with the Pope in a perfect fury,
protesting that the stories about the 'kind heart of
the angelic Pius' were mere humbug. All that
could be obtained, not from the Pope, but from
the head of the police, Monsignore Matteucci, was
a delay of a few days. At length the Deus ex ma-
china likewise made his appearance in the person
of the Due 'de Gramont, ex-Ambassador of France
at the Holy See. On the facts being made known
to him, and on his learning that the matter regarded
one who by naturalisation had become a French
subject, the Due de Gramont exclaimed, 'But this
is my business ; I will act in the matter ; I will look
to it ; I will speak to the Pope: To the Pope he
accordingly went and spoke, but got no satisfaction
from his Holiness, nothing except nn expression of
sarprise at his having taken any trouble at :111 in
the matter. Holy Father,' replied the Duke,

'I must trouble myself about the matter, for not
only is Signor Venturelli a French subject,
but he has even been specially recommended to me
by a letter from the private cabinet of the Empe-
ror,' am reiilly very sorry for replied the
meek Pius,' but causes nobis notes, SignorVenturelli
must leave.' there is 39 but in the matter'
pray you, Holy Father, to consider that I
be obliged to make a report on the subject to
my Government.' 'By all means make your re-
port.' And that I shall be compelled to demand
a large sum as a compensation for Signor Ventu-
relli.' Demand it, by all means.' And that the
Government of your Holiness will be obliged to
pay it.' That remains to be seen.' So the Deus
ex inachina returned from the interview with a
flea in his ear, and a moral box on it besides to the
French nation, which keeps thousands of soldiers

and its flag flying at Rome to enable the Papal
Government to kick the posteriors of French sub-
jects whenever it feels inclined. The real cause of
the order given to Venturelli to leave Rome is the
following :—The Count of Trapani and the ex-King
of Naples, having it no longer in their power to
tyrannise where they would, still tyrannise where
they can; and the obstinacy of the Pope is ascribed
to his having given his word to the ex-King to send
Venturelli off. The Bourbonists have been stirred
up in the matter by Monsignore de Merode and his
friends, for no political reason whatever, but on
account of little railway jealousies, in which M.
Oudry, the former engineer of the Civita Vecchia
line, and a Count de Maguelonne, the correspon-
dent, in former days, of the Univers, play a promi-
nent part. But it is not my object to enter into
the details of these wretched little intrigues. I
have communicated the facts, because they illus-
trate the unceremonious manlier in which the Papal
Government treats the representations and the re-
monstrances of France."

SIR GEORGE GREY AT BEDLINGTON.

On Friday evening a soiree took place at Bed-
lington, to assist the purchase of a piano for the
use of the school of the parish. The chair was
occupied by the Rev. the Vicar of Bedlington (the
Rev. C. T. Whitley), and on the platform were the
Right Hon. Sir George Grey, Bart. ; Mr. Joseph
Young, of Hartford; Mr. R. B. Sanderson ; and
Mr. Hood, Morpeth.
The Rev. CHAIRMAN having expressed his hap-
piness at seeing so large and respectable a company
as that which faced him,
Sir GEORGE GREY rose to address the meeting,
and was received with warm applause. On its
subsiding, the right hon. gentleman began by ex-
pressing his thanks to Mr. Whitley for affording
him an opportunity, by the invitation he gave him
a few days ago, of being present on that occasion.
He must say that he felt the greatest interest in
seeing assembled before him those who were en-
gaged, as many of them were, directly or indirectly,
in an occuptillUL utal 1 =CI U. 11, La unumg
village in Northumberland—an occupation which
involved great labour, involved more than ordinary
risk, but which was a most honourable occupation
—(hear)—an occupation which conduced to the
comfort and the enjoyment of every man in this
country, from the humblest to the highest, and from
the cottage to the palace, by the cheering fire which
enlightened and afforded us many conveniences and
comforts, and added so much to family enjoyment,
and at the same time conduced so eminently to the
wealth and prosperity—yes, and the security of
this country. By the last census it appeared that
the population of that parish had very materially
increased, and he believed that increase was due to
the wide extension of the coal workings within the
parish. Now, it was an interesting fact, which he
durst say they might be familiar with, to notice
the great and rapid increase in the coal production
of this country. We lived in an age which gave
us much cause for thankfulness that we did live in
it. We lived in an age in which comforts and en-
joyments were greatly multiplied, and in which
science had made such rapid strides as to add
greatly, not only to the national wealth, but to the
enjoyment and comfort of the humblest families in,
this kingdom. He alluded to the security of the
country, to which this most useful branch of in-
dustry so largely conduced ; and he alluded in that
to our great navy, which had been the strength of
this country, and which, he trusted, would always
continue to be its strength and defence, keeping
far from our shores any invading foe. That navy
was propelled almost exclusively by steam, coal
being the means by which they were enabled to
produce that mighty power, which carried not only
our merchant ships all over the ocean, conveying
the produce of our country to the most distant
lands, and bringing back the products of those
lands, but propelling our magnificent line-of-battle
ships, which were destined, he hoped, in case of
need, to be that defence to our shores which they
had ever been. He had never been more struck
than when looking into the hold of one of those
magnificent ships, and seeing the enormous and
beautifully-constructed machinery, and seeing that
enormous mass floating idly at the moment in the
water, but capable of being propelled at a most
rapid speed, and sailing in the most tempestuous
seas with that mighty power to which they, who
were engaged in the production of coal, were con-
tributing by their daily industry. He alluded to
that, because those who were living in that village
_ha anal,l °au ;t -roLy occluded, but still, if
that term was to be applied to it, those who lived
in it and were oecupi.a a.,11 j
sometimes not be aware how much they were ful-
filling duties in the sphere in which they were
placed, not only by the discharge of their duties to
their families, providing them with the means of an
honest subsistence, obtaining those comforts and
enjoyments which he hoped many of them were
able to possess as the results of their industry, but
how they were component parts of the nation's
greatness, and what reason they had to be thankful
for those muscles and sinews which God had given
them, and which they were enabled to use so as to
enable that nation of which they were a part to
occupy the proud position which it did occupy
among the nations of the earth. (Cheers.)
And those were only material advantages. They
had a higher existence than that which they were
leading here on earth ; and it was hardly possible
to address them within that room, devoted to the
most important object of secular and religious edu-
cation, without looking higher than those mortal
interests which came home to them at every mo-
ment of their lives, and remembering that they were
immortal beings, and appreciating—as he trusted
the large assemblage he then addressed did—those
advantages which they possessed in the moral and
religious privileges which were afforded to them
through the institutions which existed in that parish,
and he trusted in every parish which existed
throughout the kingdom. Again, he said, they had
reason to be thankful that they lived in this day,
because, contrasting the present period with 50 or
100 years ago, they possessed advantages infinitely
greater than their ancestors then possessed. They
saw schools arising throughout the land, and not
empty schools, to be merely permitted to say,
" There's a school in the parish," but schools
thronged with children of industrious parents, who
were anxious to give their children a good sound
education, which would enable them not only to
make their way in this world, but to understand
and fulfil their duties not only to their
fellow - men, but to God himself, and to prepare
themselves, as immortal beings, for that future
world to which they were all hastening. Mr.
Whitley had alluded to the intemperance which
prevailed, in not one, but in all classes many
years ago. It was a most gratifying circumstance
that that habit of intemperance had greatly, he
hoped, diminished ; and he had a hearty sympathy
for those who, by any means which 'they thought
were likely to effect their object, were endeavour-
ing to wage a war against a habit—he might call
it sin—which was the fruitful parent of misery and
crime. But he must say that he had much more
faith in the counter-attraction of good schools, of
meetings like the present, of reading-rooms, and of
innocent, useful, and instructive amusements and
and occupations, placed within reach of the masses
of the community, than he had in any legislative
restrictions and prohibitions. He believed there
as a marked difference in the rising generation
con pare with former times, and he hoped they
should have 8110 :
wn to their children good examples,
and those example-L.' would be improved upon ; and
use of generally

they had reason to be thankful for was the irnpl'Oved
it was impossible to tra-
vel through the mining hones of the people. Now,
disi:icts of this country
-
without seeing the great improvet.h..nt in the new
houses of the pitmen as compared with
• '• the old
ones. With reference to himself, there were 8 6--nreat
many Northumbrian men, and he believed there

were some present, who would cover more ground
then ho did. But a word mußt 1)9 said For the Nor-

thumbrian women. He believed it had been well

said that many of the greatest men of this country

had owed their greatness, as far as their natural
talent, education, and training were concerned, in
a great degree to their mothers ; and be believed it
was to the women of England that they were to
look chiefly for the improved character of the ris-
ing generation. (Applause.) Now, he was reminded
'of this by alluding to the homes of the people, be-
cause if they gave a woman a good home to live in,
he believed she would take care that it should be
made a comfortable home for her husband and for
her family; .and the number who were present on
that occasion showed the interest they had in
the proceedings of that evening, and how much
they were disposed to appreciate the advantages
which were held out to them in that place. (Ap-
plause.) He could only say that he sympathised
most cordially and earnestly with all the efforts that
were made for the good of those who dwelt in that
district; and he was delighted to know and to feel
that the improvement that was going on was
effected in a great measure through their own
doings. (Hear, hear, and cheers) There was an
admirable book, published not long ago by the
author of the Life of George Stephenson," called
" Self Help." It was by helping themselves and
using their own exertions that they must look
for their improvement; and he must say that
from the advantages held out to them, and their
evident appreciation of those advantages, they might
look with hope to the future parish of Bedlington
and the district in which they were assembled. Mr
Whitley had spoken of the usefulness of cultivating
music, and had expressed a hope that it might be
successfully cultivated within these walls. From
the specimens they had had there that evening, he
could not shut his eyes to the conviction that it had
been already successfully cultivated to a great degree
in that parish, and he only hoped that number would
be greatly multiplied who were charming their ears
with those sweet sounds which they had already
heard with such satisfaction. With regard to his
coming there on that occasion, he could only say, he
had had greater pleasure in addressing such an as-
semblage as he then saw before him than he had in
addressing many assemblage,' wh;.b b. 1.1 been
uutina to address on former occasions on other sub-
jects of a political nature, which, however important
in their place, did not afford so much satisfaction as
a social gathering of that kind. (Loud cheers.) And
while there always must be distinctions in classes,
he believed any distance, any estrangement between
those classes of society, would be best removed by
meetings of that description, in which they all met
on a level, all uttering the samesentiments, and met
together as friends and neighbours, anxious only to
promote each other's comfort, social enjoyment, and
religious improvement. His chief desire in address-
ing them was to express the gratification he had
felt at being present on that occasion, and the deep
interest he should always feel in their welfare ; and
he hoped that was not the last occasion on which he
should havO the pleasure of addressing them. (The
hon. baronet resumed his seat amid loud cheers.)

_ENFORCEMENT OF ENGLISII,FRENCH;
AIVD S.PANISR CLAIMS ON _MEXICO.

It is stated that the conditions of a treaty between
the Queen of England, the Emperor of the French,
and the Queen of Spain are in course of arrange-
ment for an immediate intervention, by the com-
bined forces of the three Sovereigns, in the affairs
of Mexico. The intention of the allies is to send a
combined naval force into the Gulf of Mexico.
This force will blockade, and will, we apprehend,
temporarily occupy, the principal ports upon the
Gulf, such as Vera Cruz, Tampico, and one or two
others. By these means the allies will bring the
Mexican Government to an immediate acquiescence
in their terms. The plan on which they have
agreed for the satisfaction of the outstanding claims
is this :—The allied Powers will sequestrate the
customs revenues of the ports in question. They
will charge their consuls, or some other autho-
rities, jointly to collect these revenues at the
different ports ; and these consuls, acting together,
will form a sort of international commission, con-
stituted for the purpose at each port. No ship
will be able either to enter or clear at the ports of
Vera Cruz, Tampico, &c., without the authority of
these consuls, who will exact—and not only exact,
but themselves also receive—the customs dues on
such entrances and clearances. They will, we
presume, observe the existing customs duties re-
cognised by Mexican laws, and will throw the
proceeds into a common treasury of their own at
each port. They then intend to retain a given
proportion of these proceeds for their respective
nations, and to pat, oval' a portion to the Mexican
We believe that the allies will retain
"about 50 per cent. of these, and will pay over 50 per
cent. to Mexico. Their respective consuls, after
paying over to the Mexican Government its share
of the proceeds, quarter by quarter, will divide the
balance or other half rateably between the three
countries. This arrangement will be permanent,
or will endure at least until all claims shall have
been discharged. A ship of war or two in the road-
steads of each of these ports will meanwhile secure
the maintenance of authority of the allied consuls.
Much of this arrangement of course presumes the
capitulation of the Mexican Government. But if
that Government should attempt to hold out, this
(which would otherwise have been done by arrange-
ment with the Mexican authorities) will be done by
means of a blockade. As soon as the arrangement
can be made with the Mexican Government there
will no longer be need of an effective blockade, for
the authority of the consuls would spring from a
treaty with Mexico herself.

It is not thought that it will bo necessary for
ourselves to send any additional force into that
quarter of the world. We have already on the
West Indian and North American station 26 ves-
sels of war, mounting 500 guns, and carrying 6,500
men.—Morning Post.

TRAGICAL OCCURRENCE, NEAR REIV-
CAAYTLE-UNDER-LYME.

Excitement of the most painful character was,
aroused on Monday morning last, in the neighbour-
hood of Newcastle-under-Lyme, by the rumour that
an elderly man, named Johnson, an Irishman, who
keeps a beerhouse, known as the Mile House, half
way between Newcastle and the village of Ches-
terton, had, in a paroxysm of rage, killed a young
man, named Richard Pickstock, the previous even-
ing; and this feeling became the more intense
when it was known that in the blindness of fury
the unhappy man had caused the death of an un-
offending youth. The particulars of this sad oc-
currence are in substance as follow :—Johnson,
amonst other children, has a daughter, about 15
years of age, who has been keeping company with
a youth, named Cooper, and this, it would seem, in
opposition to the wishes of her father, who is stated
to be when excited a man of ungovernable temper,.
On Sunday night, soon after divine service, at which
the two had attended. Cooper and his sweetheart
reached the girl's home, near which they stood for
a short time in conversation. Close by were the
deceased and a companion or two, waiting for
Cooper, but taking no part in the young couple's
indoors.

Almost immediately, however, he sathmies

One of these, a youth named Proctor, was a little
in advance of Pickstock, and
was endeavouring to
quicken the pace of the latter, who, nevertheless,
went leisurely along, knowing that he had given.
no offence. • Shortly, Proctor turned round and saw
Johnson come up with his companion, whom he
heard cry : " Don't hit me ; I know nothing about
it." At the exclamation, Proctor saw the angry
father raise a billet of wood and strike Pickstock
to the ground. On seeing this savage attack,
Proctor took to his heels, and ran until he procured
assistance. On returning, Pickstock was found
on his legs, and staggering wildly about
in his attempts to proceed towards home. He was
assisted for a little way, but, becoming rapidly
worse, ho was at last obliged to be carried to his
lodgings at Chesterton. Messengers were sent in
every direction for medical help, but some delay
occurred before it was available. In the meantime
Pickstock became •werse, and died at five o'clock
on Monday morning. He was a joiner, and about
years old. His parents, we believe, reside at
-'-.with. On Monday morning Johnson was

CRIMINAL COURT.—(This Day,)

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Byles.)
ALLEGED MURDER.

John Speller, aged 19, described as a sailor, was indicted
for the wilful murder of William Dixon, on board the
American ship Bosphorus, on the 6th of September.
Mr. Orridge having briefly addressed the jury on the
part of the prosecution, called his evidence.
Thomas Porter, a seaman on board the Bosphorus, said
that vessel arrived off the Commercial Docks on Friday,

Sept. 6. The mate ordered all hands on deck, and witness
went down to the forecastle to tell the men who were there.
The prisoner was one of them. Prisoner said he would not
go until witness went, upon which witness caugkt him by
the collar and tried to pull him out. They both fell, the
prisoner being underneath. The prisoner ran away, and
witness jumped on a chest. The man Dixon was coming
in at the time, and attempted to take from the prisoner a
knife which he had in•his hand. Dixon was stabbed, but
witness did not see the blow, although ho saw the knife in
the prisoner's hand. The prisoner had his right arm up
when Dixon caught hold of him.
Police-constable 264 M produced a large clasp-knife with
which the assault was said to have been committed.
Examination continued--Dixon died within three minutes
after he was stabbed. There had been quarrels between
witness and the prisoner during the voyage, but not on the
day the assault on Dixon took place.
Cross-examined by Mr. Thomson—Dixon and witness
had been on shore in the morning, and had been drinking.
Witness had two glasses of gin. All the sailors in the ship
carried knives in their belts.

Re-examined by Mr. Orridge—Witness was not altoge-
ther sober when he had the struggle with the prisoner, nor
altogether drunk.

James Galbraith, a seaman on board the Bosphorus,
gave a similar version of the quarrel. He saw the pri-
soner strike Dixon a back-handed blow with the knife.
The prisoner then threw the knife away. He had heard
the prisoner and Dixon quarrel in the morning about money.
The prisoner said, " I will have my money, or I'll see for
why."

A police-constable said that when ho took the prisoner
into custody ho said he was very sorry that Dixon was
dead. He meant it for the other man (Porter), who had
very cruelly used him on the voyage.
Medical evidence was given that the wound received was
sufficient to account for death.

Mr. Sleigh (who, with Mr. Thompson, appeared for the
defence) made a very able speech to the jury on behalf of
the prisoner, suggesting that there was no motive for the
committal of murder, and that the offence was nothing more
than manslaughter at the runs& He thought that the jury
would be still safer in acquitting the prisoner on the ground
of •tne wow uy wnten Dixon met his death being unpre•.
meditated and accidental.

The judgeleft it to the jury to say whether it was raw.
der, manslaughter, or accident.

The jury found the prisoner guilty of manslaughter,
adding that he had received provocation which mitigated
the offence.

Mr. Justice Byles said he Would take time to consider
the sentence.

THE CASE OF DR. GRIFFITH JONES.

Dr. Griffith Jones, surgeon, was indicted for wilful and
corrupt perjury in propounding a will before Sir C. Cress..
well. There was also an indictment against the prisoner
for having forged the will—the will of Sophia Beilia.
The indictment charging the prisoner with wilful and
corrupt perjury was read by the clerk,
The prisoner pleaded guilty.

Mr. Sergeant Ballantine said that under the circumstances
he should withdraw from the prosecution on the second in-
dictment. He had come to tho conclusion that it would
be a vain inquiry. He might mention that the perjury
was that the prisoner had represented on oath before Sir
C. Cresswell that he was a Doctor of Medicine, having
taken that degree at Aberdeen. It appeared from the pri-
soner's own admission on cross-examination that he had
Oaken no such degree, and that he was represented at Aber-
deen by another.

Mr. Sergeant Parry, on the part of the prisoner, said that,
the perjury was of the most trumpery character. The pri-
soner said he was a doctor of medicine of the University of
Aberdeen. Such was not the case, but he was a member
of the Royal College of Surgeons.
Mr. • Justice Byles said that such statements must be
made on affidavits, and he would consider them before pass-
ing sentence.

21 verdict of not guilty was then taken on the indictmenA
for forgery, and sentence on that of perjury was deferred
till to-morrow morning.

NEW COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice Keating.)
THE CHARGE AGAINST VINCENT COLLUCCI, THE ITALIAN

prisoner say, the week the child died, that she had taken it
to Dr. Harvey. I know she complained of her husband's
conduct.

By Mr. Giffard—The prisoner was seldom sober between
the birth and death of the child.

ARTIST.

Mary Ann Ricketts, of 24, Bedfordbury—l have known
the child left in the prisoner's apartment from nine in the
morning until four in the afternoon a very short time be-
fore it died. The only persons left in the room were her
two other young children. I have known the children take
thesbaby down to Mrs. Jones to give it something. I have
often seen the prisoner return after she had been absent;
she was intoxicated on many occasions.
Mr. Louis Hart said—l have known the prisoner for the
six months she has lived in my house, and during that
time I have scarcely ever seen her once sober.
By Mr. Ribton—l am the landlady of the house in Bed.
fordbury in which the prisoner resided. I live in Bear-
street, Leicester-square. I don't know that any complaints
have ever been made against my house in Bear-street. The
person who resided in the shop in Bedfordbury was a tenant
of mine, and received the rent for me. I have often had to
go to the prisoner's husband for the rent.
_ _

In this case the prisoner, Vincent Collucci, is indicted
for larceny, in stealing from Miss Frederica Johnson, 19
£lOO Bauk of England notes, and also with obtaining the
same notes under fraudulent pretences.

Mr. Ribton—Why, I thought you said the shopman re
ceived the rent of the prisoner.

Witness—So he used, when he could get it.
Mr. Ribton—Then the husband used sometimes not to
pay you your rent ?

- Witness—Yes, but the prisoner had had it, and spent
ii
and that's the reason I did not get it.

Mr. Ribton—l only want an answer. I don't want your
reasons. I only want what you know for certain. •
Witness—Well, I do know she spent the money.
Mr. Ribton then put a number of questions to the wit-
ness touching the marine-store business he carried on, and
remarked that he had varied somewhat in his replies. To
which the witness replied,—Well, I want to answer every.
thing in a straightforward manner, but, upon my word,
you ask me so many questions that I don't know what I
have said—(laughter)--you go about it in such a round
about way that I don't think any person could recollect
every answer he had given. (Laughter.)
Mr. Leonard, of 2, Salisbury-street, Strand, said—l am
a surgeon. I saw the child after its death. The body of
the child was so wasted that its leg was not thicker than
my finger, ani the whole weight of the body was not 31bs.
and a half. I have made a post mortem examination. I
could find no disease that would account for its death.
Want of nourishment would account for its death.
Mr. Alfred Harvey, surgeon, said, I saw the child both
before and after death. The proximate cause of death was
inanition or wasting away. After the post mortem I arrived
at the conclusion that the child died for the want of suf-
ficient nourishment.

By Mr. Ribton—The post mortem proved that the child
had not died of any disease.
The Learnea J uago ouwmea up the evidence,
The jury, after a few minutes' consideration, acquitted
the prisoner.

The prisoner, who had evinced great contrition and dis-
tress of mind during the trial, was then ordered to be
discharged.

On Monday, Mr. Sleigh, with whom was Mr. Giffard, on
the part of the prisoner, made an application to the Re-
corder for leave to inspect and take copies of certain letters
written by the prosecutrix in the Italian language to the
prisoner, and which were taken possession of by Sergeant
Tanner of the detective force on taking she prisoner into
custody, they being material and necessary for the purpose
of properly conducting the defence, and also that the trial
should be postponed until next session.

POLICE iNTELL.IGENCE.—( This Day.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Mr. Sergeant Parry opposed the application on the pact
of the prosecution until he had seen his learned brother,Mr.
Montague Chambers.

ROBBERY AT THE DUKE Or DEVONSHIRE'S.—John
Willis, stableman, in the service of the Duko of Devonshire,
Devonshire House, Piccadilly, and John Goss Lyons, an
old man, described as a labourer, were charged with steal-
ing some harness, the property of the Duke of Devonshire.

At the sitting of the Court this morning, Mr. Montague
Chambers, Q.C., with whom was Mr. Sergeant Parry and
Mr. F. H. Lewis, on the part or the prosecution, eau tnat
with reference to the application made by Mr. Sleigh to the
Recorder, he had now to state to his lordship for his infor-
mation, that in the case of Vincent Collucci, there were two
bills returned by the grand jury, the one for larceny, in
stealing a large sum of money, £1,900, from the prosecutrix,
and the other for fraudulently obtaining the same large sum
of money by false pi etences. The application was to in-
spect and make translation and copies of a number of
letters, 63 in number, which were written in the Italian
language, and which were in the hands of the police. On
the part of the prosecution he must oppose the application,
on the ground that the letters in question were wholly and
absolutely irrelevant to the nature of the charge, and could
in no way be material to the defence of the prisoner. Ho
(the learned counsel) had read the translations of the
letters, and he could not help thinking that the only object
the prisoner had was to create intimidation or to gratify
some morbid, idle, and improper curiosity, in addition to
which the affidavit upon which the application was
made was defective, and another difficulty to his
mind was that the prisoner himself ought to have
pointed out what part of the letters would assist his
defence. The second indictment charged the prisoner with
falsely pretending that the package or parcel contained cer-
tain letters, whereas the parcel only contained old news-
papers, and one single letter so folded as to deceive the pro-
secutrix. At the examination of the prisoner, Mr. D. Keane,
who appeared for him, had been shown some of these
translations, and Mr. Collett, who had acted as the attor-
ney, had since retired from the case, and a Mr. Sidney
was the attorney who made the affidavit. That affidavit
had been fully answered by Mr. Lewis, the attorney for
the prosecution, and he (the learned counsel) could assure
his lordship that the letters could in no way affect the pri-
soner's defence ; and he repeated the only object was to ob-
tain copies for the purpose of intimidation, and to gratify a
morbid and idle curiosity, and if his learned friends had
copies they might get into other persons' hands.
Mr. Sleigh, in support of his application, said surely the
counsel who conducted this defence were the best judges
what would be material, and the letters might be of great
importance, and might utterly refute the charge, and
he felt he could not properly conduct the defence without
an inspection of the letters.

Henry S utton, porterat Devonshire House, said the harness
produced was the property of the Duke of Devonshire, and
the prisoner Willis had the care of the stables in town all
the year round. He (witness) had last seen the harness
rope in the stables in June. Since the prisoners had been
in custody he had searched the stables and missed it.

Kelly, 53 C, said about six yesterday evening he went to
Mr. Attenborough's. in Piccadilly, and found the two pri-
soners there. He asked Willis where he got the harness
from, and he said it belonged to the Duke of Devonshire.
On asking whether he was authorised to pledge it he said
he was not, but as he was only paid once a month, and had
a sister in Shropshire who was dying, he had done so in-
tending to redeem it when he was paid, but that he had no
felonious intention. Lyons told him that he was engaged
to carry the harness by Willis.

Phillip Barnes, manager to Mr. Attenborough, pawn-
broker, of Piccadilly, said the prisoner Lyons brought the
harness in the previous evening, and on his asking him if
it was his, he said " No, but to a person living at the Duke
of Devonshire's, and that it belonged to the person."
Seeing a coronet on the harness, and being under the ire-
prpssion that there w•as something wrong about it, he told
Lyons to go and fetch the person, and he did so, and he
then sent for the officer.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said there was no case against Lyons, and
he should discharge him, but ho should commit Willis for
trial.

THAMES.

ATROCIOUS ASSAULT ON A GlRL.—Alexander Lawrence,
a Scotchman, was brought before Mr. Woolrych charged
with assaulting Margaret Sweeney, a girl aged 13 years.
A gentleman from the office of Messrs. Shaen and Rowe,
solicitors to the " Associate Institution for Improving and
Enforcing the Laws for the Protection of Women," ap-
peared for the prosecution, and said the girl, who had suc-
cessfully resisted the attempts made upon her virtue, was
poor and. friendless.

The complainant said she was servant to Mrs. Curley, a
lodging-house keeper in Queen's-head-alley, Wapping.
The prisoner was a sailor, lately paid oft; and had been
lodging in the house for five days only. Last night between
nine and ten o'clock she was wiping a table when the pri-
soner suddenly came behind her, seized her round the waist,
threw her violently upon the floor, and raised her clothes.
Cho aoroamorl alouri, and a woman oatmo into the room and
rescued her.

In answer to a question by Mr. WoOlrych, the witness
said the prisoner did nothing more to her than she had
stated. His clothes were unfastened.

Mrs. Ann M‘liew, a respectable married woman, said she
was about to fetch her supper beer last night, and had just
left her house when she heard loud screams and cries of

" Save me." She rushed into Mrs. Curley's house, and saw
the girl Sweeney on the floor, and the prisoner near her.
She told the prisoner he ought to be ashamed of himself.
He said he was very sorry; it was the drink made him act
as he had dono.

Inspector Beadle, of the Thames Police, said he took the
prisoner into custody, and he expressed his regret for what
ho had done. The prisoner was not sober, and he ascer-
tained that he had been drinking all yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Woolrych was of opinion there was nothing to show
the prisoner intended to commit a rape, which was the
charge against him; but he had committed a most im-
proper, unjustifiable, and brutal assault on the girl, for
which he fined him £3.

THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to this morning's
market were very moderate, yet the demand for bath red
and white qualities ruled inactive, at Monday's decline in
the quotations of is to 2s per quarter.
The show of foreign wheat was by no means extensive.
All descriptions, however, moved off heavily, on former
terms.

In floating cargoes of grain rather a limited business was
,ransacted, at about previous currencies.

The trade for barley was dull, and prices had a downward
tendency.

Malt was a slow sale, at previmis currencies.
Fine oats sold steadily, at full quotations ; but medium
and low parcels were a dull inquiry, at barely late rates.
Beans and peas were in steady request, at full prices.
The flour trade was steady, and the quotations were sup-
ported.

Mr. Justice Keating desired that the translations should
be handed to him. lie would look through them, and in-
form Mr. Sleigh to-morrow morning what he would do. If
any of the letters contained any matter at all relevant there
might bo ground to allow inspection, but he should cer-
tainly not feel justified in allowing copies to be taken.
The prisoner, who is an extremely good-looking gentle-
manly man, was in the dock during the application, but not
placed at the bar.
