RIOT BETWEEN THE ENGLISH

AND WELSH.

ABERDARE, FRIDAY NIGHT.--This district has
been the scene of one of the most alarming riots that
have occurred for some time past. Men, women, and
children have been severely, and, in one or two in-
stances, it is feared, fatally injured. The houses
occupied by a number of English have been partly razed
to the ground, the shutters and doors being either
carried away or thrown through the windows amongst
the alarmed inmates. In order that the public may
rightly understand the cause of such a shameful pro-
ceeding, it is necessary to state that some time since
the colliers in the Aberdare works struck, and about
150 men were procured from the Forest of Dean to
supply their places. These men proved to be mostly
English, which gave rise to unpleasant feelings, the
Welsh declaring that unless the English turned out
they would be made to pay fur it. A few weeks
since a st. eking, filled with gunpowder, was thrown
into the bedroom of one of the workmen, which ex-
ploded, and the man lust his lice. A verdict of " Wil-
ful murder" was then returned against some persons
unknown. The guilty parties have as yet escaped.
Ever since the inquest the same unfriendly feeling
has been evinced against the English, and on Monday
last some two hundred Welshmen proceeded to
a wood, %%here they cut sticks, and meeting.socue of
the English on the bridge they made a tearful attack
upon them, cutting their heads open, and covering
them with blood. The mob, then, according to the
evidence given yesterday before the magistrates by a
policeman who apprehended ten of the rioters,
marched to the houses occupied by the English, where
they broke open the windows, and knocked out the
sashes. Tney then took the shutters, and threw them
sideways through the windows. The rioters then got
in at the windows, and the officer saw a girl fall from
the window, and four or five Welshmen fell on her.
lie heard cries of " Murder" proceeding from many
of the houses. After they had partially destroyed
five or six houses at one end of the street, they went
to another part, and served a similar number in the
same way. A great many persons spoke as to the
dreadful treatment they had received. A boy, aged
13, had some of his teeth knocked down his throat.
A woman named Meredith had her head cut open,
and was in such a dangerous state that little hopes
were entertained of her recovery. A great number
of persons are so badly injured as to be obliged to
keep to their beds. Ten of the more formidable
rioters apprehended by the police were fully com-
mitted to take their trials, and there is no doubt but
that, in the course of a few days, a number of others
will be taken, as they are well knuwn to the police.

RBvENGE.—A fearful act has just been perpetrated
in the French island of Guadeloupe. A man having dis-
covered that his wife was unfaithful to him, watched his op-
portunity, and, upon a Sunday night, when the wife and her
paramour were in bed together, he barricaded the hut, and
then set fire to it, with the hope of consuming the guilty
pair, but the soldiers of the garrison arriving sooner than he
expected, they were liberated almost unhurt. The fire de-
stroyed a number of negro habitations.
GRATITUDE AMONGST PAUPERS.—During the put
week a somewhat novel occurrence tcok place in the Taun-
ton Union. Mr. Welsh, who, some time since, tendered his
resignation to the board of guardians, when about to leave
the union, was presented by the paupers with a handsome
silver spoon, which had been purchased by subscriptions
raised amongst them, many of them giving their little all for
that purpose, as a small testimony for the great kindness, con
siatent with the duty of the house, which he had ever
ob-
served towards them.

were, so far as known, clean. The report which has ap-
peared in a shipping paper as to the success or non-success
of the Abram, Lord Gambier, Truelove, and Ann, is quite
premature and erroneous, as their destination was Davis's
Straits. and not Greenland. They would, in all probability
be on fishing-grounds 1,000 miles distant from any vessels
that the Hamilton Ross would fall in with. The success of
the Peterhead vessels is, upon the whole, very encou-
raging. The Hamilton Ross is quite fall, having upwards
of 150 tons of blubber, or 10,000 seals, most of them of an
unusually large size. The voyage altogether has been made
in two months and three days. The passage home occupied
eight days. The following is Mr. Burnett'a report:- British

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.
On Friday a court was held for the dispatch of
business.

Mr. BENNOCH again called the attention of the
court to the progress of the building now being erected
by Alderman Humphery contiguous to London-
bridge, at the south-west corner of that structure,
the beauty of which had been damaged by the new
speculation.
Mr. Low (the Chairman of the Bridge house Com-
mittee) assured Mr. Bennoch that the Bridge-house
Committee were fully alive to the subject. They had
called upon Alderman Humphery, who had, in the
most ready and unreserved manner, produced his
title-deeds and laid them before the committee.
From these documents it appeared that the alderman
was not infringing upon the ground belonging to the
corporation. He was, in fact, only raising an edifice
upon land which he 4had purchased. He had merely
carried the building two stories higher than it was
before, and he was, no doubt, quite prepared to dis-
pose of the property for 70,0001. or 80,0001., if the
corporation was disposed to become the purchasers.
Mr. ANDERTON stated that he would then say, as
he had said before, that Alderman Humphery had
been too deep for the committee.
THE METROPOLITAN INTERMENTS BILL.
Mr. Low brought up the report of the Parlia-
mentary Committee in answer to a reference made to
the Parliamentary Committee relative to the Metro-
politan Interments Bill in Parliament. He had to
state that the ommittee had considered the various
clauses with the strictest care and attention. To the
principle of the measure they did not object; but
they considered that several of the provisions were
exceedingly obnoxious and objectionable. (Hear,
bear.) The committee reported that they considered
the abolition of intramural interments to be desira-
ble, but that they thought it would be better if the
Bill gave the management of its provisions, not to
Government, as proposed, but to parties resident in,
and belonging to, the several localities. They asked
that the, report might be referred back to them again,
so that they might confer with Sir George Grey as to
the propriety of exempting the city of London alto-
gether from the operation of the Act. He concluded
by moving that the report of the committee be
agreed to.
Mr. H. L. TAYLOR said, that instead of agreeing
with the committee in their report, he should move,
ES an amendment, that the report be referred back to
the committee, requesting that the members of the
committee would endeavour to obtain a conference
with Ministers, so that, if possible, they might be
induced to withdraw the Bill altogether. He was
not opposed to the abolition of burial in towns, but
he did consider the proposed measure in its provisions
to be so tyrannical, that he thought the Corporation
et. the city of London ought to ask, not for an exemp-
tion from the operation of the clauses of the Bill, but
that they should take higher ground for the benefit
of the public at large, and at once set an example by
calling forthe withdrawal

Edward Hyde, the child in question, was then Called;
and, in answer to his Lordship, repeated the Lord's
Prayer. The child was then sworn, having previously
said that people would go to hell who bore false
witness. He then said. I remember the day I was found
in the street. I lived with Mr. Kenealey before that time.
I was beaten by him before I went into the street. He
beat me with a cane—with this cane—which I had with
me when I was found in the street. He beat me for not
learning my lesson. All my clothes were off, excepting
my shirt, when he beat me. Ile beat me in the little
room where I slept. I was not tied to anything. My
neck was hurt by a rope being put round it
by Mr. Kenealey. Mr. Kenealey was catching
hold of the other side of the rope. My neck
was hurt by his squeezing. I did not try to get away.
It hurt me round my neck. The flogging wai done se 11
at once. After the flogging I went to beet fur the night.
The next morning, when I got up, I dressed myselt and
went to light the tire. I went out of doors after that by
myself to play. After playing I went home. I remem-
ber being found in the street with a crowd about me. I
went out by myself; and when I got into the street I
turned to the left. I went far bethre the people came
round me. Mr. Kenealey told me to go out and to go to
Highgate.
Cross-examined—Mr. Kenealey told me to wait at
the corner of the buildings, and to wait for him, and that
he would take me for a walk to Highgate. I went on,
instead of waiting, until I lost myself. I was not
frightened when I had lost my way, nor when the crowd
was with me. Mr. Kenealey often took me for a walk
to Highgate, and sometimes into St. James's-park to
feed the ducks. Ho taught me to read and spell, and
say my prayers. He bought me play things and pieture
books. I sometimes told' him lies, when he was very
angry wi.,h me, and told me I should always tell
the truth. When I told the truth he was
always kind to me. He always told me to
be a fine, good boy, and that it was very
wicked to tell lies. When the weather was
fine he sent me into the square to play, and when the
weather was bad he gave me things to play with. He
told me stories, and bought me little toys. I was with
him some hours every day, and slept in his bed every
night. I remember his bringing me over from Ireland.
I had not then learnt to read or to say my prayers. He
began to teach me to read as soon as he brought me to
London. He kissed me every day. When he told me
not to tell lies I promised him I would never do so any
more, and he would then take me in his arms and
kiss me.

Mr.-11obler--How were you dressed ? Officer—
In plain clothes.
Mr. Hobler—l submit, Mr. Alderman, there is no
offence. What gaming has been proved on the part
of the defendant ?
Mr. Hubbard said he could carry the case farther.
William Beech, the beadle of Candlewick Ward, was
then called, and was about being examined as to cer-
tain acts in the defendant's house before the licensing-
day, his promise to abate the system complained of,
and the granting of the licence, when he was stopped
by
Mr. Hobler, who warmly remarked that it had
nothing to do with the question.
Mr. Alderman GIBBS—I must take the licence.
Where is it ? The production of the licence will
show that he is licensed.
Mr. Hobler—l can tell the ward authorities That
they have no right to detain it after it has been signed
by the magistrates, and they are liable to an action
for withholding it.
Mr. Hubbard desired Beech to produce it.
Mr. Hobler—Put it down on the table, sir. It
does not belong to you.
Mr. Hubbard (to the beadle)—l desire you to hold
it . I have got a purpose for its proper keeping.
Beech's examination was then proceeded with—l
am aware that betting has been going on in the de-
fendant's house. I did not bet myself. I saw a ticket
purchased. I saw betting-lists in front of the bar,
and on that day week I saw a party place two half-
crowns on the bar as a bet on a horse named Nigger.
The landlord and barmaid were present.
Mr. Alderman GIBBS—Who was the person that
betted ? Witness—A man of the name of Smithers.
The barmaid took the bet, but the landlord was pre-
sent. She took it at his direction.
Mr. Alderman GIBBS—WeII, Mr. Hobler, what is
your answer to the charge ?
Mr. Hobler argued that the defendant had not
committed ,any offence against his licence. What
proof was there of defendant's kurwingly permitting
gambling ?
Mr. Alderman Gums pemsed the licence, and
drew Mr. Hobler 's attention to the words " not
suffer gaming."
Mr. Hobler here made In offer to read the licence,
when there was some obstacle urged by Mr.
Hubbard. •
Mr. Hobler—l tell you again, sir, that you have no
right to the licence after the magistrates have signed it.
Mr. Hubbard staid he was acting under the instruc-
tions of the Common Council.
Mr. Alderman GIBBS•—The magistrates having
signed it the Common Council have no right to it.
Mr. Hobler—Certainly not, sir ; it is Mr. Jones's
property.
Mr. Alderman GIBBS—The defendant is a licensed
victualler, and this is his licence. Therefore, you had
better give it up. • •
Mr. Hobler —Put it in your pocket, Mr. Jones.
Mr. Jones did so, on Mr. Hubbard complying
with the Alderman's order.
Mr. Hobler—Well, sir, now my answer is, that
there is no gaming proved against the defendant.
There was no evidence to show that my client in any
way mixed himself up in the betting. Mr. Knowles
was the parry, and the officer fully proved that fact.
Besides, however, the penalty is a personal one, and
the offence, must be proved to have been personally
done by t„he defendant.
, M Alderman Ginns—But his licence says that he
snail '.tot .suffer gaming. -
IWay, the officer, at the request of Mr. Hobler, was
recalled, and he stated that he made the bet with
Knowles. When Mr. Knowles knew that he was
an officer,• he wished to withdraw the bet, and threw
down the , sovereign. Witness, however, refused.
Mr. Ho bier said he would show that the defendant
had no int crest in the betting lists.
Mr. Fr, ancis Knowles said—l made a bet with
the officer, and I gave him this card. I pay all the
money at I the house. I hold all the money in my
banker's be ok. The bets are made with me, and I
am answer able for all the bets made at the house.
They know nobody but me. (The card produced
bore his ini :iale.) The barmaid hands all the money
over to me.
Mr. Hul )bard asked if this was not gaming ?
Mr. 1101 )ler—Why here is a paper, the Sunday
Times, 'WI Lich has a dozen or more notices of betting
lists at di ierent houses. The landlords are not re-
sponsible
Mr. H übbard—We cannot take evidence from a
newspapt r of any fact, but this I will tell you, that
in due Cl ,arse of time they will all be prosecuted.
The °pi, don of the judges, in 1845, respecting lotte-
ries, is 1 )erfectly clear. They are not allowed.
Mr. dobler—But this is not a lottery.
Mr. Alderman.Ginns—No ; it is for gaming. I
censid' Jr the case proved, and I shall fine the defen-
dant 5 1. and costs.
Th 3 fine was paid.

TDE LATE ADDRESS TO LORD DENMAN.
Mr. R. Taylor brought up a report from the corn-
mittee appointed to consider the reference respecting
the address to Lord Denman, and his Lordships
answer. It was eventually agreed that the whole of
the correspondence should be printed and circulated
amongst the members of the court, together with the
addresses his Lordship has received on former occa-
slons, and the replies of his Lordship thereto.
Adjourned.

THE CITY GAS QUESTION.
On Friday, on the re-assembling of the committee,
Mr. Cardwell in the chair,
Mr. WILLIAas a
KIRK, member of the ward of
Farringdon, examined, deposed that there existed in
the city a very great desire for a better and cheaper
gas.
Air. HALL, Bishopsgate-street, would not have as-
sisted the Consumers Company if the old companies
had charged reasonable rates, and if they had not de-
clared
that a supply at 4s. per 1,000 cubic feet was anl
impossibility. He felt greater confidence in the advao.

Re-examined by Mr. CROWDER—Whim I came from
Ireland he taught me to read. I read to Mr. Kenealey.
I was not reading on the night he beat me. I had been
doing nothing on the night he beat me. I had no les-
sons to do the night he beat me. I was beaten for not
learning my lesson.
Lord CAMPBELL thought there must be a verdict
against Mr. Kenealey. Ile (Lord Campbell) did not in
the slightest degree wish to prejudice the case; but,
although Mr. Kenealey seemed to have been a most affee
tionate patent, and to have devotedly studied the wel-
fare of the child, he seems on this occasion to have done
what the law would not justify. It was, however, fur
the jury to say whether this was a moderate chastise-
ment on a child of tender years.
Mr. WHATELY addressed the jury for the defendant.
He would remind the jury that they were not trying
Mr.§Kenealey for having inflicted punishment on this
child, but whether he was guilty of the wicked
and deliberate cruelty charged in the indictment. He
contended that the evidence would not bear out the
cruelty charged against the defendant in the indictment;
but, on the contrary, the child's own statement proved
that Sir. Kenealey had evinced the tenderest regard for
its welfare. He was found constantly instructing the
boy, taking him with him in his walks, participating
in his little amusements, and sharing his bed with him.
He (Mr. Whately) did not deny that the child had been
severely punished by Mr. Kenealey, but the jury were
to judge whether that punishment was or was not ex-
cessive.

Lord CAMPI3ELL, in summing up, left it to the jury to
say whe her the punishment which had been inflicted on
the child had been excessive. This was a most distress-
ing case, but they must deal with it according to the
rules cf law, and with a regard to the truth.
He rejoiced that the truth bad come out,
and that no serious stain wilt attach to the cha-
racter of Mr. Kenealey. He appelred to have taken
a most tender care of the child, treating it
with all kindness, taking carp of its education
and attending to its personal wants ; but the jury were
to say whether a part of the charge against Mr. Kenealey
was not made out, and if it were it would be
their duty to find him guilty. lie (Lord Campbell)
might say for himself he was rot one of those who
thought
coporeal punishment of young persons entirely
unnecessary.
The jury then retired, and in a few minutes found a
verdict of Guilty against the defendant on the second
count.

CONNELL v. PAYMENT.
Mr. nIIDDLESToNE stated that this was an action to
recover damages from the defendant for having impri-
soned the plaintiff on a false charge of felony. The
plaintiff Was
pecuniary assistance from her relatives, and added to her
a person in bumble life, who received tome
means of living by labour. She saw in the shop of the
defendant, who was a
great manufacturing tiller, an ad.
vertisement for hands. She went in, and he made an
agreement with her, by which she was to work for
twelve hours' a day, and to receive at the end of the
week the sum of 7s. She went on the Monday morning to
work, and worked during the week; but when on Saturday
night she applied fur her wages, she was met by a charge
of felony, and was accused of having stolen some cloth on
the Thursday
morning. She asserted her innocence in
the most positive manner, but the defendant said he had
lost the cloth, and gave her irate custody on the charge
of having stolen it. She was taken to the station-
house and there imprisoned, and the defendant, taking
a policeman with him, went to the prisoner's lodgings,
where he searched everything, but found no trace of
his property whatever. The plaintiff remained in cus-
tody all the Saturday night, all the Sunday and Sunday
night, and was brought up before the magistrate on
Monday morning, when, the defendant not being able to
say more than that he had lost a piece of cloth, without
having one single circumstance to cast on the plaintiff
the suspicion cf having stolen it, the magistrate at once
discharged the plaintiff. Ile did not think fit to appear
by counsel, so that the case would occupy but a little
time, and after the proofs had been given the jury would

A PORPOISE iN TEE THAMES.—Considerable amuse-
ment was afforded to persons on Blackfriars-bridge on Thurs-
day evening, between six and seven o'clock, at the gambols
of a porpoise on the east side of the bridge, which were con-

DILIGENCE OF BRITISH ARTISTS.—The Academy
Exhibition consists of 1,456 works of art; more than IMO
(some say 1,400) works were declined, and it we add to these,
as we have done in former years, the number of those exhi:
bited elsewhere—namely, at the British Institution, 500 ;
the Suffolk-street Gallery, 735; the Portland Gallery, Re-
gent-street, 373; the Watercolour Gallery, 380; the New
Watercolour Gallery, 3x9; and allow for thois returned by
the British Instituti, n and the Society of British Artists,
the total number produced during the year for exhibition in
the metropolis will be found to be at least 5,500 works of
art. During this time, too, artists have been turning out
dioramas, panoramas, cyclorama:, cosmoramas, &c.,
without end, various paw ls in the Palace of Parliament have
