SUPPLY OF FRESH WATER ON

poses, after having spent their last shilling to bring
out their discovery, were reduced to pine away the
last years of their existence in the most abject
penury; like many other benefactors of their race,
they worked hard to pave the way to those splendid
establishments we see springing up every day.. They
sowed the seed, and starved whilst it was growing up ;
but others after them reaped a rich harvest. In spite
of the efforts of thousands interested in the dark
status quo, gas at last triumphed, and is now become
as necessary to the inhabitants of our cities as the
very air they breathe; with it, too, it has brought
immense improvements in our manner of building ;
and although met with the greatest abuse and out-
cries at first, it has now become an indispensable
article.
Another discovery, as important to the navies of
England, has been made, and the outcry raised is
that it cannot answer ; without any trial, without
the least possible chance of appreciation of its merit,
there were, and there are now, found men so
bigoted to their old notions that they have pro-
claimed, and continue to proclaim, the utter im-
possibility of the success of the discovery. When
those men are told that vessels have been for
months, nay years, at sea without being provided
with a ton of water ; that their crews, composed
of several hundred men, have found a constant and
abundant supply with the simplest apparatus, and
only by distilling the sea-water on which their ship
floated—those men, with the obstinacy belonging to
ignorance, persevere in their old and foolish way, and
will not, or cannot, believe what everybody else is
convinced of.
There are many ships in the French Republican and
mercantile navies provided with what our neighbours
call " Appareil-Cuisine-Distillatoire," which, whilst it
cooks the crew's meals, distils the water necessary for
all purposes. This apparatus is of the simplest con-
struction, easy of access to all on board, and not
liable to get out of order. The price in France is
extremely moderate, and probably at the time we
write nearly half of the merchant navy, going
on long voyages, are provided with this eco-
nomical and most useful galley. Many large
men-of-war, with numerous crews, have re-
ceived the improved machine, and find it answer
admirably. We have before us reports of numerous
captains who speak iu the highest terms of its efficiency,
and advise its introduction in every vessel, even for
short voyages, as more economical and safer than the old
plan of water-casks or tanks. They report that the water
is better than that provided at the common watering
places, free from all the earthy, mineral, or vegetable
matters which are found in larger or lesser proportion
in every drop of water shipped from springs, rivers, or
reservoirs—by far more useful for drinking, cooking,
or washing purposes than the water generally pro-
cured in casks.
We have told what the distilling apparatus of
Messrs. Peyre and Roger does for the French navy,
but we have to speak now of what Mr. Grant's dis-
tilling and cooking galley does for the British navy.
In June last the Arrogant, 46, Captain Fitzroy,
with a complement of 450 men ; the Plumper, 12,
Commander M. S. Nolloth, with a complement of 100
then; and the Reynard, Commander P. Cracrof
with a complement of 110 men, sailed from Plymouth,
provided each with one of Mr. Grant's distilling and
cooking galleys. The reports of the captains of these
ships prove that the distillation of salt water during
the time only that the fire was lighted for cooking
the crews' meals, produced one gallon of pure water
fit for drinking and culinary purposes for every man
on board. This water was found greatly preferred to
the tank water embarked ashore. The distilled water
becomes very shortly fit for use, as it passes from the
condensor to tanks, where it cools to the same tempe-
rature as that of the sea, the motion of the vessel
aerating it in a few hours, and restoring it to the
oxygen which it had lost by distillation, and conse-
quently rendering it as brisk as spring water, with-
out even employing any chemical or mechanical
means. Experiments have proved, that if the water
is required for immediate use, it may be aerated by
means of a simple and self-acting electric apparatus,
which will supply the required oxygen in a few
minutes.

ing the tour. Here was an interesting female of the
early age of 22, removed by an act of excusable impru-
dence from the abode of civilization—her home in the
wilderness, surrounded by beings of uncongenial na-
tures, and whose very enjoyments, derived from a
cultivated mind, were tinctured with bitterness by
their contrast with the mere animated propensities of
those among whom she dwells. She employs her time,
however, in keeping a school, and in " teaching the
young idea how to shoot," among the children of the
Indian village.—New York Herald.

.....
Now, with these facts before us, we demand the
solution of this simple question—Why do vessels
going on long voyages persevere in embarking large
quantities of water, in many cases as much as one ton
per man on board ? Why do emigrant ships take out
a supply which they can command at all times and at
all hours ? Why do they carry from 100 to 200 tons
of water ? Since it is calculated that an adult during
a South Australian voyage consumes a ton, why do
they not provide themselves with distilling and cook-
ing galleys, which would give them a fresh and
wholesome daily supply ? Having seen what has been
done abroad, and what is done or doing at home every
day, we are att loss to find a reason why a ship-
owner should prefer embarking water to goods.
It will be seen what an economy the adaptation of
such galley on board an emigrant ship will present,
even on the first voyage. Let us take a vessel of 500
or GOO tons, with a crew of 30 men and 200 pas-
, sengers. For the voyage to Australia, these people
will consume 250 tons of water. If it be intended

to go straight, without watering at any intermediate
port, that water must be on board at the departure;
if she waters half way, then some 120 tons are em-
barked. Taking the last hypothesis, she will have to
procure casks, which will cost at the minimum price
21. per ton, or 2401. Then she will lose the freight of
120 tons of goods at 21., or 3001., making altogether
500/., besides the delays incident on going out of
her way to water. Now, the cost of an appa-
ratus, tank and all complete, does not exceed
1501. (we speak of the French galley, not being
acquainted with Mr. Grant's scale of prices) ; out of
that Pim we must deduct about 301., the price of the
common cooking apparatus for such a vessel: then the
cost will be 1201. Then we have a profit on the very
first voyage of 3801. If the observation is made that
the casks may be sold in Australia at the cost
price, still there must remain on board some 20
tons or more for the provision of the crew on the re-
turn voyage; giving the shipowner the benefit of
that observation, and assuming he sells 100 tons of
water-casks at 21., which we take out of the 380/.,
there will remain after all 1801. balance in favour of
the galley—taking no account whatever of the loss
incurred on the 20 tons, or about 100/. on the return
voyage.
The results proving the efficiency of these galleys
have been numerous and satisfactory; why then
persevere in the old water-casks course ? It is said
that the Emigration Board would not permit a vessel
to leave port without a sufficiency of water. We
may predict, with certainty, that such foolish notions
will soon be exploded, and that these machines will
he required by the same Board to be placed on board
of every passenger ship.
Looking now at the royal navy, the large quanti-
ties of water embarked on hoard a ship take a great
portion of the stowage away ; that part of the ship
may be usefully employed in carrying stores for a
long voyage, and instead of being stored, as now, for
six months, by the introduction of the new galley she
may be provisioned for twelve months without any
difficulty.
The time is past when the Admiralty used to have
a certain scale of certain stores for a certain class of
ships. We remember a friend of ours telling us the
fallowing anecdote, which he (Captain Hickey) called
the acme of official wisdom. He was on the Lake

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 18.
(Sittings in Banco.)
TIIE QUEEN V. THE PRINTER AND PUBLISHER OF THE
" MORNING HERALD."

CRIMINAL INFORMATION.-DON PACIFICO.

The SOLICITOR. GENERAL (at the request of the
Court) read that portion of M. Pacifico's affidavit,
substantially given above, which explained the reasons
of his not applying sooner fora criminal information
to this Court. _ _

Lord CAMPBELL—Take a rule to show cause, Mr.
Solicitor• General.—Rule granted accordingly.

Ontario, under Sir Jame Yeo, at the close a

the American war; a 100-gun ship, called
the Prince Regent, was then building at Kings-
town, and as 100-gun ships had water-
casks, brooms, &e., at home, so the Prince
Regent must have, and they were sent from here to
the American lake at no small expense. It never came
into the wise heads of the Lords of the Admiralty that
the Prince Regent was to float on soft water, and
that brooms may be cut on the banks of the lake, and
consequently they could have saved the trouble of
sending and the expense of buying and carrying such
articles. It was literally beating, in absurdity, the
old proverb of Beading coal to Newcastle.

THE ENGLISH WIFE OF THE OJIBBE-
WAY INDIAN.
On Garden Island, by Lake Superior, Toronto,
there are three Indian settlements of considerable ex-
tent, the entire island being an Indian reserve, at two
of which extensive clearances have been made, and
where the natives cultivate the soil ; but those of the
other still indulge in their unsettled propensities.
The Indians had collected from all quarters to the
number of 3,000, whose lodges and wigwams thickly
studded the shore, and were scattered around on
the surrounding heights. Among the concourse
thus brought together was a broken-hearted English
young lady, who, carried away by a romantic and
sanguine disposition, about five years before, at the
early age of seventeen, had become the wife of an
Indian chief who visited England, and bad be-
come the victim of a mistaken and confiding
attachment. Her parents seem to have par-
taken of the strange credulity of their unhappy
child, as the father had sent to the Canadian
wilds Brussels carpeting, a piano, and other ar-
ticles of luxury, with which to decorate the rude
dwelling or Indian wigwam, where anything would
be out of keeping that was unsuited to the verdant
carpeting of nature. The tribe to which her husband
belongs are located in the interior of the island, and
she had accompanied them to the place of rendez-
vous, probably to beguile the tedium of a wilderness
life, little expecting to meet with a party, composed,
for the most part, of natives of her own " distant isle
of the ocean," to remind her of the endearments and
associations of her own - early home, and of
the sacrifice she had made in exchanging the allure-
ments and refinements of civilized life for the society of
those who, however kindly they may treat her, are still
the unsophisticated, untutored, savage, and uncultivated
denizens of the forest. The sight of this evidently dis-
appointed young creature was the only circumstance
that cast a gloom over the enjoyment of the party dur.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Robert Murray Campbell and William Pon fret,
who were a few days ago charged with having de-
frauded tradesmen of goods, were brought up for
further examination.
Mr. Bussell attended for Pomfret.
The evidence on the former occasion having been
read over,
Alderman Gums asked whether Mr. Pennington,
to whom it appeared the prisoners had referred trades-
men for the supply of character, was present.
Mr. Pennington stood forward immediately, and
said that he attended in obedience to the Lord Mayor's
summons, but he solemnly declared that he knew no
more about the prisoners than he knew about Adam.
He was proceeding to speak about the surreptitious
manner in which persons had got hold of his cards,
and used them for improper and unauthorised pur-
poses, when
Mr. Bussell advised him not to say anything until
something definite should be stated cgainst himself.
Mr. Pennington—l have no acquaintance whatever
with the fellows at the bar. I don't at all acknow-
ledge them.
William Richard C. Buckingham, of 21, Crutched
Friars, cork-cutter and manufacturer, said he received
a letter from the firm of Campbell and Co., of No. 8,
Billiter-street, on the 25th of October, requesting to
know the terms upon which he did business. He
answered the letter, and received another from W.
Pomfret on the subject of his capability of executing
an extensive export order. He answered that letter
also, and he called at their office the day after in
order to explain any misunderstanding that might
have arisen in consequence of the fact that there were
two houses in Crutched Friars of the name, and he
told them that he could not, in honour, interfere, if
the order was intended for the other concern. Wm.
Pomfret, whom he • saw upon this occasion, seemed
duly to appreciate the feeling, and the order was the
consequence of the interview.—(A laugh.) The two
prisoners called at the witness's counting-house sub-
sequently, looked at samples, and consulted together.
Some observations passed between them as to the
price, as the invoice was subject to twelve and a half
discount. They agreed ultimately that the invoice
should be made out at the price he charged, 55., and
they referred the witness to Mr. Pennington as evi-
dence of their respectability. The inquiries after
Mr. Pennington himself, however, were not satisfac-
tory, for nobody knew anything at all about him, and,
of course the order was declined.
The witness said, upon cross-examination, that his
impression was that Pomfret was clerk to Campbell.
Alderman GIBES then directed that Mr. Penning-
ton should be put to the bar, along with Campbell
and Pomfret.
The new prisoner said his name was John Penning-
ton, and he stood as far !Tart from the other prisoners
as he could, and declared that he was undergoing
most cruel indignity, merely because some persons
bad got hold of and made a base use of his cards.
Edward Dowling (46 B division of the metropo-
litan police) said, at the latter end of March or the
beginning of April, I received such information as
induced me to watch his house in Pimlico, and I
watched him from place to place. I saw him and
Campbell speaking together at a public house in the
Strand. I have no doubt that they were the persons.
Pennington—This is really a dreadful thing. I
am here charged with being acquainted with a man I
never saw before.
Mr. T. E. Death, of St. Martin's-le-Grand, en-
engraver and printer, said that his recollection of
" Campbell and Co." having been refreshed by what
he had seen in the newspapers, he called at the Jus-
tice-room to give the firm a lift. What he lost was a
trifle, but the case illustrated character. Mr. Camp-
bell gave an order on the 24th of Jaily for cards to
the amount of 12s. 6d., which were sent to his then
address, at No. 34, Coleman-street. The boy who
took the cards home had received directions not to
leave them without receiving the money, but he re-
turned empty. Soon afterwards Mr. Campbell called,
in the witness's absence, and gave another order,
which the boy received the strictest directions not to
part with for a moment without the amount, which
altogether extended to 1/. 95., but ' tie boy returned
as before, not having had the power t o resist the argu-
ments of Messrs. Campbell and Co.-- (Laughter.)
Alderman Ginus—He brought back nothing ?
Witness—He brought back nothing but the receipt
which I had drawn up for the whole amount.
Alderman GIBBS—Did you apply to him yourself
afterwards? Witness—Yes; I went immediately
afterwards, and I saw Mr. Campbell, and demanded
the cards. He said the cards were• not there, and
that he all along expected credit. I told him that I
never gave credit to strangers, and eriat I should cer-
tainly discharge the boy who had neglected the strict
orders be had received. "Oh ! ti se in," said he, "if
you turn away the boy, I'll take him :into my employ-
ment ?"—(Laughter.)
Alderman Giens—Did yon see e ny body else at
Mr. Campbell's house ? Witness—l did. I saw his
clerk, a stout fellow, who said to me, pointing to
Campbell, " That's a b--- ass. rn settle the matter
with you."—(Laughter.) So the nout fellow took
my address, said he'd call and settle it, but he never
came, and I gave it up as a bad job.
Mr. Buckingham, brother to the former witness of
that name, and also residing in Crutched Friars, said
that Campbell called at his house, :looked at some
samples of corks, gave the reference .of "Pennington
and C 0.," and left word that if the reference were ap-
proved, the goods required would be to the amount of
421. 10s. The inquiries about Mr. Pennington not
being satisfactory the matter dropped. The witness
said, that upon inquiring for Mr. Pees nington, he was
introduced to a very old man, who staid the house of
" Campbell and Co." was a highly respectable house,
and if theywanted any assistance he:would most will

tMe. W. a Di▪
ckson, engraver, stated that the firm
of Campbell and Co. did him out of a door-plate and
a set of cards, to the amount of 1./. 55. Campbell
and Pomfret were together when the order was given,
and the suggestion of the latter that the cards should
be plain and not embossed was adopted.
Pennington sai▪ dit was quite monstrous to detain
him upon a matter of which he knew nothing. He
was well known in the City, and particularly to Mr.
Forrester.
Alderman GABS--I have been asking Mr. Forres-
ter whether he knows you, and he says he does not.
Pennington—There is no charge against me. Why
should I be detained ?
Alderman GIBBS—In a former case it was proved
that you said you were not Mr. Pennington at on-
time, and you were introduced next day as Mr. Pen-
nington, and all that has been stated about you con-
firms the evidence in that case.
Mr. Bussell submitted that Pomfret was merely clerk
to Campbell, and not responsible for any of the acts of
the firm.
Scott, the officer who apprehended the prisoners,
said there were other persons who would on a future
day appear against them.—The prisoners were then
remanded.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said he bad to apply to
the Court on the part of Don Paci fish, for a rule to
show cause why a criminal information should not
issue against Charles Baldwin and John George Chap-
man, respectively, the registered proprietor and the
printer and publisher of the Illornin, Herald, for a
libel on Don Pacifico, which appeared in that paper
in the month of March last. He would explain to
the Court why the application had not been made
sooner. Don Pacifico stated in an affidavit that when
the article in question appeared in the Morning Herald
he was not resident in this country, and that
he was obliged, in consequence of certain occurrences
which had taken place at Athens, to quit that city,
and to take refuge on board her Majesty's ship Cale-
donia, which vessel landed him at Malta, where he
was attacked by cholera. He was confined to his
house by illness for a period of three months,
and he was not aware of the libel of which
he now 'complained until his arrival in England
on the Bth of August last. Hence Don Pacifico had
not been in a position to make this application for a
criminal information to this Court earlier. The libel
in question arose out of what had been a topic of so
much discussion during the present year, namely, the
interference of her Majesty's Government in the
claims of M. Pacifico, and it appeared in the
Morning Herald on the lath of March of this year.
Their Lordships would see that it was an at-
tack on M. Pacifico, in relation not only to his
public but also to his private and domestic affairs.
The passage alleged as libellous was as follows, and
appeared in a letter of a correspondent addressed to
the Morning Herald, from Athens, under the date of
Feb. 28 :—" Lord Palmerston's principle, that to re-
dress private wrongs justice may be taken into one's
own hands, without others having a right to interfere,
may be applicable between nations of equal weight;
as, if an injustice can be imposed by force it
can also be repulsed by force. But when so
powerful a nation is Great Britain decides upon
demanding from a nation as feeble as Greece the re-
dression of her wrongs, these wrongs should first be
weighed in the balance of the strictest justice, at the
risk of incurring the same dishonour as that of one
who insults, without reason, a woman or a child.
And to prove to you that Lord Palmerston, before
giving to the world the spectacle of the English fleet
blockading Greece in time of peace—before having
thrown on the English nation the responsibility of an
unqualified abuse of power, had not sufficiently ex-
amined whether justice was on his side, I can furnish
you with several new and authentic details on his two
principal reclamations. The Jew Pacifico, before his
fraudulent bankruptcy at Constantinople, and before
his Consulship in Greece, held an inn in a village in
Portugal. • On one occasion Don Pedro, on his
way to Lisbon, first sent to say that be
would stop there, and then having changed his
mind, and taken another road, was much astonished
some time afterwards to see mine host arrive with a
bill for 1501. for the costs, he said, of his preparations
to receive his Majesty. Don Pedro took the thing
as a joke, but gave him 251. and sent him to the right-
about. Since then, Pacifico having changed for the
third time his nationality, and put himself under Sir
E. Lyons's protection, raked up his old account, which
he pretends to have been torn or lost in the pil-
lage of his house, and which suddenly took the
fearful proportion of 25,0001. This is the principal
item of the Pacifico affair, which also comprehends
the indemnities for the harm done in his house, such
as 2,0001. for bronzes and crystal broken, and the rest
in proportion. Now, it happens that before the riot
in his house, Don Pacifico had had the misfortune
to have one of his daughters run away with
twice, first _ by a merchant's clerk, and se-
condly by an apothecary's boy; and on this
second sad catastrophe he addressed himself to King
Otho, protesting that his daughter had stolen every-
thing he possessed, and that he had nothing left to
live upon, and, consequently, asked for alms. The
King, it is a well-known fact, lent him more than
once a hundred drachmas at a time. You may judge,
therefore, of the crystal and bronzes there must have
been to break in his miserable dwelling. To
complete your information on this subject, I may add
that this man possessed a piece of ground contained
within the enclosure of the palace gardens. After
the damage committed in his house, the King, instead
of giving him the two or three thousand drachmas,
which his ground was worth, sent him 8,000
drachmas as an indemnification of his losses, and
further, Pacifico signed a receipt, in which he de-
clares himself satisfied, but unfortunately the act
is zo worded as to say only for bis territory and for
the circumstances which had occurred to him.' It
is this ambiguity which has permitted him to raise
the fabric of falsehood about which so much noise
has been made." Now he (the Solicitor-General)
had to state on the part of Don Pacifico that he was
never at Constantinople in his life; that he had never
been a bankrupt or insolvent; that he never
owed a shilling which he had not paid ; that he
never kept an inn in Portugal ; that he had never seen
Don Pedro in the course of his life, and therefore had
had no such transaction with that Prince as was re-
lated in the libel, or made such a demand upon him;
that, in a word, the whole statement was a tis-
sue of falsehood from beginning to end. With
regard to the reference made to his daughters
in the passage which had been read to the
Court, Don Pacifico had stated in his affidavit that
he had three daughters ; that the eldest was married
with his perfect consent, and was a lady on whom not
the slightest imputation could rest ; that his youngest
daughter was only a girl of thirteen, and was still
living in his family ; and that with respect to
the second daughter, who was spoken of as having
run away, first with a merchant's clerk, and secondly
with an apothecary's boy, the fact was that she was mar-
ried to a M. Zante, a captain of artillery, though not
with her father's consent, which was withheld on the
ground that M. Zante was of a different religion from
M. Pacifico's daughter, he being a Christian and she
a Jewess. Notwithstanding her father's disapproval
of the match, the daughter married M. Zante. She was
certainly married without her father's consent ; but
with reference to the story of her baying run away
with either a merchant's clerk or an apothecary's boy,
or of her having taken away any of the property of
her father, there was not the slightest truth in it.
Lord CAMPBELL said his only difficulty arose from
the length of time that had elapsed since the publica.

LONG VOYAGES.
• (From the Nautical Standard.)
• We have many times been surprised at the very
slowness with which improvements are adopted in our
Royal and mercantile navies. Asan
a longation, we are ad-
verse to innovation, and it requires time to
introduce in our system even things that
are de-
cidedly and tangibly superior and better than
those we have been accustomed to. It " is
notorious that the most useful inventions, and even
the greatest discoveries, have found detractors or
enemies among those they were intended to benefit.
There are yet men with prejudices so strong that
they cannot be convinced by the evidence of their
own senses. They are so wedded to their old ideas
and ways that they cannot see with their own eyes
open that they are wrong, or that some newer
means are better than *those they have used all
their lifetime. Some others, whose interest draws
them another way, have, of course, reasons of
their owu for not adopting, or even for speaking
against and running down all improvements. The
old cant of new-fangled systems, delusive hopes, dan-
gerous experiment, poisonous stuff, were the expres-
sions of all those interested in the several trades con-
nected with lighting when gas was first spoken of. The

gas that lighted the first experimental lamp, ani the

A. R. Drummond, of Bryanston-square, was charged
with a
oosfs,thbeuptleear:
his way into St. Barnabas Church, Pimlico.
A number of residents in the vicinity of the sacred
edifice, and others, were present, anxious to hear the
proceedings.
Mark Loom, 11 B, sworn—ln consequence of a
disturbance yesterday week at St. Barnabas Church, I
was sent there yesterday morning with two other con-
stables. We remained in the church until about a
quarter-past eleven, at which hour a gentleman left
it, and in consequence of the hurried way in which
he did so, I suspected something was wrong. He
left the outer gate, which had been previously locked,
open ; and after he had been gone about three mi-
nutes, a large crowd of persons came rushing down
the street.
Mr. BnonEair —How many ? Witness—From two
to three hundred.
Mr. BRODERIP—What next occurred ? Witness—
Several forced their way into the gate, and I tried to
keep them out. It was the side gate, leading to a
small yard. I got the gate partially to. Defendant
had one leg on the gate, the other outside, and the
mob behind urged him on to come in. I still, with
assistance, kept the gate closed as well as I could. I
told the defendant that the church was full, and that
I could not admit any more. The people outside
said, " Pull the gate down." Defendant said,
" If you do not let us in we'll pull them down."
Mr. BRODERIP—How many persons were there as-
sembled at that time ? ;Witness About three
hundred.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 19, 1850.

Mr. BRODERIP—Of what description ? Witness—
Of all classes; of the most respectable, and of the
very lowest order. The mob were calling out, We
will have no Popery. No Puseyism. We will
pull the church down."
Mr. Broderip—Did the defendant use any of the
language ? Witness—l did not hear him. I got the
gate closed, and sent to the station. The congrega-
tion were much alarmed. A great many of them
came out of the church door into the yard. The mob
was then so great that I could not let any one in or
out. In twenty minutes after I should say that a thou-
sand people were present.
Mr. BRODERIP—Was the superintendent of the
division there ? Witness—Yes, Superintendent Rus-
sell was, shortly after the commencement.
Mr. Beckerson, an inspector of the B division—

It was necessary to have a hundred men, nearly,
there, to clear the streets, some of whom remained
for several hours.
Mr. BRODERIP to Loom—You was inside the
church at first ? Witness—Yes, your worship.
Mr. BRODERIP—What was going on ? Witness

—The service was similar to a Catholic place of
worship.
Mr. BRODERIP—Were the candles lighted ?
ness—Yes.
Mr. BRODERIP-At what hour ? Witness—Half-
past ten or eleven.
Mr. BRODERIP to defendant —Would you ask this
witness any question ? You are at perfect liberty to
do so if you think fit.
Defendant—He says my leg was between the gate ;
that is false.
Sergeant . Loom—lt was
_ _ _

Defendant—He swears falsely.
Mr. BRODERIP—I cannot allow such language to be
used. You are at liberty to ask the witness any ques-
tion you please, and if it be a proper one, I will take
care that he shall answer it, but an opportunity will
be afforded you at the proper time for making your
defence.

Mr. W. Cumming, an inspector of the B division,
sworn—At about half-past eleven yesterday morning
several gentlemen came to the Pimlico station, and I
went with a body of men to St. Barnabas Church. In
Church-street I found about a thousand persons,
principally thieves and the worst of characters about
Chelsea, Pimlico, and Westminster ; amongst these I
was sorry to observe a great number of gentlemen.

Mr. EfRODERIP—Yoii have no doubt of that ? Wit-
ness—Not the slightest.
Witness continued—The street was completely
'blocked up. The mob were shouting and making use
of the most violent language of every description, and
there was every indication of a serious riot taking
place. I gave immediate directions to clear the street.
While doing so several gentlemen came up to me,
amongst whom was the defendant, and persisted that
I had no right to give such instructions. They said
every person there had a right to be there, and seeing
the defendant was taking the lead in the matter, I ad-
dressed myself to him. The people at that time were
calling out, Down with the gates—break the doors
open." I then said to the defendant, seeing, as I have
before stated, that he was taking. the lead, " What-
ever principles may be in dispute, I have nothing to
do with ; here is a serious riot, which I, as an officer,
am determined to put down." I then directed two of
the men (constables) to put him back, with those who
were with him, and after two or three minutes I lost
sight of him. My attention was next directed to the
defendant surrounded by five or six of the gentlemen
already described, and a mob of from two to three
hundred persons of the lowest character, shouting
and urging him on. He was then forcing his
way in a doorway which was shut, and where
two constables were. I heard them caution him,

order:him off, saw them put their hands to him to
put him back, when he slipped by them, and again
went to the door. This conduct induced the mob to
shout out, " Tear the gates down—we'll have no such
mummery here," and other similar expressions.
Seeing he was determined to persevere, and knowing
that, if I did not take active steps, a serious riot
might ensue, I directed the defendant might be taken
into custody. I see three of the gentlemen now pre-
sent who were urging him on, but, as they were not
so had, I did not take them.
Mr. H. Bradley, of 35, Hasker-street, Pimlico,
proved that he and several other respectable persons
were desirous of entering the church, but found the
doors closed. Some forced their way into the door,
declaring that the church was not full, as was stated
as the reason for closing the doors, nor half full, and
accordingly those outside insisted upon being ad-
mitted. The defendant was amongst those who in-
sisted upon going in, and was one who resisted the
police in maintaining order, by creating a crowd round
the church, and re- assembling at the door after
the road was cleared. He was ordered back, but re-
sisted by pushing forward in order to get to the
church door.

Charles Chinn, 255 A, also gave testimony, proving
defendant's insisting upon entering the church, and
pushing forward as described to the door. There
was a great deal of hissing, and cries of "No
Popery !"
A constable named Kilby, who took the defendant
into custody, was called at his request to prove that
he was standing with one foot in the gutter and the
other on the pavement when he was taken.
In reply to the charge, the defendant, who is a
very respectable, quiet-looking man, said that when
first taken to the station he was only charged with
creating a disturbance, but when his bail came there
was the addition of forcibly trying to get into the
church when there was no room. The fact was, that
be was desirous of entering the church, and was much
surprised to find the doors closed against him. He
had no desire to make a disturbance, but having left
home to go to church, was desirous of being admitted.
When he arrived at the door he found some gentle-
men who were also shut out, and who demanded ad-
mission, asking a man at the door why he held it. The
man showed his authority, and the gentlemen read it,
and having laughed at it, put their shoulders to
the door and forced their way in, declaring their right
to admission, followed by a dozen others. Defendant
most positively declared that he never touched the
door in the whole course of the time—had never made
a disturbance, and was as quiet at the time he was
taken as at the present moment. Several gentlemen
had volunteered to come forward in his behalf, to
prove the truth of his assertion, but he had hardly
thought it necessary to trouble them. Some were,
however, he believed, in attendance.
Mr. G. Freeman, of Pont-street, Belgrave-square,
grocer, said he was present, and did not see the de-
fendant speak to, push, or lay hands upon the police.
He did not observe Mr. Cumming speak to him at
all, nor observe any riotous conduct on the part of the
accused. The police took him by the collar.
In reply to questions from Mr. Cumming, the
witness said be heard a great shouting, and cries of
"No Popery" several times. Witness did not fancy
that it might come to a serious disturbance. Amongst
the crowd there was a great many tradespeople living
in the neighbourhood. There were also a great many
bad characters from Jew's-row. He would not con-
sider his property safe, if a hundred such as those
were around with an intention to molest it.
Mr. John Mitchell, of Chester-street, Grosvenor-
place, also stated that he was near defendant, and saw
nothing improper in his behaviour. Witness had
started for his own place of worship, but hearing
about St. Barnabas being a Puseyite church, thought
he would go and see what sort of place it was. Wit-
ness heard a great many gentlemen complaining
loudly of not being admitted, and saw them push the
doorkeepers on one side. He also saw several gentle-
men climbing over the stone wall round the church,
to get out from it.

Mr. Z. 0. Berry, ironmonger, of 3, Victoria-road,
one of the trustees of the, district, after detailing the
expressions of annoyance felt by a great number of
gentlemen at being refused admittance at a few
minutes past eleven, and the circumstance of the
party, among whom was a nobleman living in Eaton-
place, as before described, said that a few minutes
after that, a gentleman who came out of the church
over the wall, declared " he was disgusted, the candles
were lighted ; it was Popery in its most malignant
form," and that led to the cry outside of "No
Popery." They would not let the people out from the
church at the gate, and up to that time nineteen-
twentieths of the assemblage were gentlemen or
tradesmen of the district. A boy in an undress
livery came up with a life-preserver in his hand, and
witness called the attention of the police to it.
Mr. BRODERIP said—Now the whole case is before
me, on one side and the other, and it is quite clear that
there was a very large assemblage, a large crowd of
persons, partly consisting of persons described as gen-
tlemen, and of thieves. The question before me is,
whether the defendant was at all active in leading the
mob, or merely doing what he had a right to do—
going into church. Although some said there was no
room inside the church, it was perfectly clear that
others declared there was. I cannot find anything that
he did except putting his foot inside the door, and that
is denied ; and witnesses are called who swear that he
did not do so • therefore, taking the case as far as he
is concerned, I do not think it one for me to call upon
defendant for sureties for his good behaviour, and I
added the
ob-
serve
therefore dismiss the complaint; but the Queen's peace
must be kept, and I am determined that it shall be

A burst of applause from the auditory followed,
which was immediately suppressed by the officers of
the court.
