LEADERS.

Yesterday the prisoners Brown, Haggerty, Smith,
Fitzsimon, Griffin, and Feehan, who were apprehended
a few days ago, charged with having taken part in the
late Papal aggression riot at Birkenhead, on the 27th
ult., were brought before the magistrates at Chester for
examination. The prisoner Brown is a shoemakor,who
has resided in Birkenhead for eighteen years, and has
hitherto borne a highly respectable character. The
rest of the prisoners are all Isiah labourers belonging to
the dock works.

At the commencement of the proceedings Sir J. Ste-
phen, who appeared for the defence, protested, in the
name of his clients, against the hearing of the case be-
fore the magistrates now sitting, whose names appeared
tacked on to the placard convening the meeting out of
which this charge now brought forward arose.
The objection was overruled. The case of Mr. John
Brown was then taken. "

John Grimley, of the Liverpool police force, was the
first witness called. He was one of those who were
almost killed at the riot. His head was still bound up,
and he appeared in an exceedingly weak state. After
speaking to the facts connected with the riot, and to the
manner in which he was struck on the head and in va-
rious parts of the body, by several of the mob, who were
armed with crowbars and bludgeons, he said that when
he was down for the second time, a man came forward
and struck him on the head with a bar of iron. He had
seen that man since in Birkenhead Bridewell. It was
one of the prisoners at the bar. Whilst he was held
down the prisoner Brown came and struck him with a
bludgeon over the shoulder; when he (witness) said,
" For God's sake do not kill me." The witness fur-
ther deposed to being struck by other of the prisoners.
He also described bat took place before the police in-
terfered. A window in the Town•hall was open at this
time, and a person put his head out of the window, and
called out to the crowd, " Now men, now is your time."
Mr. Conway—Who was that man? Witness—That
is the man (pointing to Mr. Bretherton, solicitor).
Mr. Bretherton (evidently excited, and addressing
the bench)—l appeal to you, gentlemen, whether I was
not in the Town-hall with you at the time.
Another policeman, named John Bowes, who re-
ceived severe injuries, was next examined. He ale)
spoke to having been struck by some of the prisoners.
Superintendent Ride, of the Liverpool force, who was
placed at the head of the body of police sent over from
Liverpool, was under examination when our parcel was
dispatched.
It is expected that the investigation will occupy at
least two or three days. There are thirty-four witnesses
on behalf of the prosecution, and nearly twenty on behalf
of the prisoners.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 14th have arrived.
The Minister of Finances on that day presented to
the Chamber of Deputies the budget for 1851. The
budget of expenditure exhibits great economies. It
is 1,045 millions of reals, whereas for 1850 it was
1,201 millions. The amount fixed for the extraordi-
nary budget of 1851 is 224 millions of reals, which
sum constitutes the deficit of the Treasury, ind9pen-
dently of the sum required for the arrangement of the
debt, and which is not specified. Towards the deficit
it is proposed to apply the 41 millions of receipts in
excess over the expenditure, after discharging all the
claims of the ordinary budget.

EQUITARLE FIRE OFFICE.
Capital-500,0 01.
(Incorporated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.)
The leading principles of this Office ara Moderate and equitable
Rates of Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits.
'lie difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
Premium to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so
great. that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than calculation.
It nas been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
different Established Companies have not been proportionate to the
amount of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomaly should cease, and an approximation to the
true risk lar, made. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rance COmpany is established.
the true rate of Pretty= for Fire Insurance can only be ap-
proached through Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been sufficiently acted n, or systematically applied.
Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
security against loss for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by
supporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The Equitable Fire Office will, by a constant anals sic of its own
experience, from time to di, e, adopt each rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrange-
ments as regards tariffs with other offices.
With this view an annual investigation will be made into each
class of risk, and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will be made to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years.
Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon
every description of Property on moderate terms.

A NOVEL. D.
" The author, we are convinced. is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high- staadara of morality and religion, and by a laudable love
of the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan-
guage in which he empresses his fealings, eentiments, and opinions
on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
matters that are the prima .mobilia of the actions which cha-
acterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though be
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Illu-
mines, and Smythes."—Observer.
Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains passages of exceed-
ing beauty, and is written in pure and forcible language, with great
good taste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en
gaging novels which the present season has produced. Of the cha-

31ILLY :--,

" It should be recollected that the object of penal
laws is the protection and security of the innocent;
that the punishment of the guilty is resorted to only
as a means of attaining that object. When, therefore,
the guilty escape, the law has merely failed of its
intended effect; it has done no good, indeed, but it
has done no harm. But when the innocent become
the victims of the law, the law is not merely ineffi-
cient —it does not merely fail of accomplishing its
intended object—it injures the persona it was meant
to protect—it creates the very evil it was to cure,
and destroys the security it was made to preserve."

Wilkes.
The application was, after some discussion,
ted.

John,'.-square, Clorkenv;eli had his name struck out of
the list, in consequence cf the person called to prove the
notices having forgot to bring there with
Robert Tritton, of the Nag's Head. Oxford-street, cp-
plit-d for Lis licence, but wt:s opposed by Mr. Wilkes.
'I be applicant's petition stal,o th,:t he had carried Oil
his 12eu=e hr the last clevit years without complaint,
hut, the counter petition of the authorities of St. James,
Westminster, steted that he had been summoned several
times, and that he had his licence suspended in March
last. The application was refused unanimously.
William Jones, of the Goat and Star, Swaliow-street.
was opposed by Mr. Wilkes for the parish authorities of

In the course of the case, Mr. Wilkes took occasion to
make an attack upon Mr. Bodkin, who 'A as absent, for
the defence he had made on behalf of the Argyll Rooms,

speech.

for and 4 against.
The applications of Mr. Thomas Newton for a licence

THE ARGYLL ROOMS.
The CHAIRMAN stated that he had this morning re-
ceived a letter, in reference to the above rooms, from the
Rev. Mr. Jackson and the churchwardens and overseers
of the parish of St. James'F, Westminster, with reference
to the part they had taken in opposing the application
of Mr. Lauren.. The note commenced by stating that
a meeting of their body ,aas held last night, and they
took the opportunity of defending themselves from the
statements made by the counsel for the application.
They had opposed from the well-founded experience
of the bad results arising from such places, and they
thought the conduct of three or four vestrymen wrong
in presenting a petition in favour of that place, and thus
enabling counsel to make an unwarrantable attack upon
them.
Mr. WINN, a magistrate, said he thought the conduct
of the authorities of St. James's highly commendable.
The Clerk of the Court having gone through the
whole of the applications the Court adjourned.

RUSSIA.

A letter from Riga says :—" The great heat which
has prevailed in Russia has been favourable to the
corn crops of the provinces of the Baltic and of those
of the interior of the empire. The rye and barley
crops have been excellent. Potatoes are of fine qua-
lity, and give promise of a satisfactory crop. Not-
withstanding this abundance, the price of grain has
been for some days on the rise. Rye has risen from
60 roubles to 67, and barley from 50 to 56. This
sudden advance is the consequence of news from Hol-
land and Germany, where the potato disease has again
declared itself, and in part destroyed the crop, parti-
cularly in the provinces of the Rhine."

OCEAN SCREW STEAMERS.

The New York papers announce that a series of
emigrant screw steamers are about to be built in that
port, by Messrs. Spoffred and Tileston. They have
determined to adopt an entirely new arrangment
with regard to the steerage passengers. Instead of
allowing the steerage passengers, as is now the
custom in every emigrant ship, to supply their
own food, they intend to furnish them, from the
ship's stores, with good and wholesome provisions
during the voyage. The first vessel will be
named the Pioneer. She will rate 2,000 tons, and
it is estimated that she will carry two thousand
seven hundred tons, drawing twenty and a half feet
of water, and will be built in the very best manner,
of locust, live oak, and cedar. Her owners feel
assured of her making the passage between Liver-
pool and New York easily in sixteen days. She
will be commanded by Captain Eldridge,
late of the packet-ship Roscius, a gentleman
intimately known as a thorough commander by all in
the habit of voyaging between Liverpool and the United
States. Independent of the Pioneer, and another line
of two propellers, of 2,000 tons each, about being built
in New York, there are two of the same dimensions
to be built in Philadelphia as soon as possible, and all
to run to Liverpool. Messrs. Kingsland and Co., of
New York, for years engaged in the Liverpool trade,
are having a large ship built at Portsmouth, N. 11.,
of over 2,000 tons burden, clipper-built, and of suffi-
cient strength to enable them to turn her into a pro-
peller, if necessary.—Liverpool Mercury.

of the'South-Western Railway, en route to Osborne, Isle of
Wight. The royal cortege consisted of four carriages and

were in attendance to receive the Sovereign at the Royal
Clarence Victualling-yard, whence her Majesty embarked in
the Fairy for Cowes.

PROPOSED WINTER EXIIIIIITION OF ART.—Several
friends of art and artists, without any personal motive so
far as we can learn, have organised a winter exhibition of
drawings and oil sketches by our best artists, under novel
arrangements. All the drawings (about 300 in number)
are to be of one of two fixed sizes, and will be mounted
and framed, all alike by the projectors. Means of effecting
sales of works bond fide the property of the artist will be
provided without charge. The gallery of the old Water
Colour Society, Pall-mall: East, has been fitted up for the
purpose, and will be opened in a few days. The result pro-
mises to be as interesting as the motive is praiseworthy.—
