LIEUTENANT MUNRO.—It does not appear that the
statement which has been put forth by several of the
papers with something like authority, namely, that
Lieut. Munro would surrender this session and take his
trial at the Old Bailey, has any foundation or truth in
it. No notice of any such intention has been given to
the officers of the Central Criminal Court, nor is it
likely, under all the circumstances, that there Will be.
THAMES TUNNEL.— The number of persons who
passed through the Tunnel last week was 37,114.
THEATRES IN ITALY.—The recent death of Cata-
lini renders Sinigaglia, her birth-place, a spot of interest
to the musical world. The city is remarkable for the
brilliancy of its theatrical performances. Last year they
had Frezzolini, Barbieri, Nini, and Piombanti, as prime
donne, Poggi, Castellan, and Lucchesi, as priori tesiori,
and Porto, as prime basso. In 1842, Teresa Brambilla
was one of the p ime donne, Ivanhoff and Lucchesi were
tenors, Tamburini, Rosi, and Fallar, basses. An at-
tempt was made to produce Guglielmo Tell, under the
name of .Rodolfo di Sterlinga' but a Government decree
prevented its performance. The opera of Benifacie di
Geremei, by Prince Poniatowski, has been played with
great success at the Teatro Argentine, at Rome, and was
supported by Teresa Brambilla, Giacomo Roppa (tenor),
and Sebastiano Ronconi, Carlo Porto, and Francesco
Fallar (basses). The theatre is celebrated for the ori-
ginal production of Rossini's Barbiare. Sebastiano Ron-
coni, according to an " indignant" correspondent, has be-
come a superior actor to his brother Georgic) ; and cer-
tainly, from our recollection of Sebastiano at the Lyceum
in the opera of Furioso, and of Georgio, at her Majesty's
Theatre, in 1842, we have no reason to discredit his
statement.

WINTER ASSIZES.
SOUTH WALES.—Carmarthen, Dec. 27.
David Jones, aged 39, a farmer, was charged with
having, on the 14th of October last, knowingly, wilfully,
and feloniously, sent to Thomas Williams, auctioneer, of
Landwrda, a certain letter, threatening to destroy the
hay and corn of him, the said Thomas Williams.
The prisoner pleaded Not Guilty.
The witnesses called for the prosecution having fully
established the charge against the prisoner, the jury re-
turned a verdict of Guilty, but recommended the pri-
soner to mercy on account of his ignorance of the conse-
quences of sending such a letter.

charged with having, on Sunday, the
sent a letter to one Benjamin Evans, signed "Rebecca,"
threatening to pull down his house.
The prisoner was found Guilty, but recommended to
mercy by the jury, on account of her children, her po-
verty, and her ignorance.
His LORDSHIP observed that both the verdict and the
recommendation were extremely proper.
December 29.

The Court opened this morning at nine o'clock, when
Thomas Morgan and I'liomas Lewis were indicted for
having, on the 7th of October last, with other persons,
assembled at Dolauhirion-gate, in the parish of Llan-
dingad, and destroyed the toll-house of the aforesaid gate.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL addressed the jury, stating
the facts of the case, and proceeded with the evidence.
But the case was suddenly brought to a close, his Lord-
ship being of opinion that the charge in the indictment
had not been supported by evidence, there being no evi-
dence that the house had been pulled down by a " riot-
ous and tumultuous assemblage" of people.—The pri-
soners were consequently- acquitted.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)

MANSION-NO USE.
The Lord Mayor having sent for some of the principal
officers of the police, in order to give them directions
with respect to the scavengers appointed to convoy the
mud from the streets of the City who might neglect to
perform their duty strictly, Major Shaw, the superinten-
dent, waited upon his Lordship, and stated that he should
communicate with the Commissioner upon the subject.
The Superintendent informed the Lord Mayor that ob-
jections were made by some of the inhabitants of the great
thoroughfares to have the dirt and mud removed by the
servants from the fronts of their houses on Sundays,
upon the pretence that it was contrary to Jaw to work,
or cause work to be done, by others, on the Sabbath.
The LORD MAYOR—Have you the name of any par-
ticular person who refused to have the pathway in the
front of his house cleaned on Sunday ? Major Shaw—
Yes, my Loixi. A highly respectable man in Ludgate..
hill has declared that there is no law to oblige him to
remove dirt from his doorway on Sunday, and he has
refused to comply with the order of which general notice
has been given.
• The LORD MANOR—Let that gentleman be sum-
moned.. He is just the sort of person I wish to see.
The summons was immediately issued for the attend-
ance (of the person who expressed his intention of resist-
ing the order.
The LORD MAYOR requested that the press would
acknowledge the receipt of 5L from a lady resident at
Thetford for the poor-box ; 10s. (annoy
mous) as a New
Year's gift for the poor-box ; 101, from the Goldsmith's
Company ; 101. from a lady of Wimbledon common ;
and 10s. (post-office order), also for charity.
WORSHIP-STREE7'.
Yesterday Mr. Broughton, the sitting magistrate,
announced the receipt of the second half of a 51. note
from " J. A.," and of the sum of 15s. from " M. M.,"
"
for the poor-box, and that he had previously received the
sums sent by M. and " for Ann Griffiths,
the soldier's wife.
A poor German girl, about 15 years of age, came be-
fore the Magistrate to seek redress. She was a native of
Frankfort-on-the-Maine, who had come to this country
to the service of one of her' countrymen, who had several
young persons like herself itinerating in the metropolis
and environs as musicians. She had to travel about with
her instrument,
a small piano, slung round her neck, and
to give to her master all that she obtained from the pub-
lic, but she was constantly ill-used by her master be-
cause
she
useshweadsidbneaottebnrianlsgohbiymbeenrounfihsiraensds.yesterday morn-
ing Mr. BROUGHTON asked her how much she was in the
habit of taking home? The girl said 35., or 45., or 55.,
according to circumstances.
Mr. BRoIJOHTON--Suppose you took him 55.? The
girl, in her broken English, explained that her master
would Dot consider even that enough, for he was pm-yr
satisfieti•
Mr. Brioupwrox,_
And how does he keep you? What
i do you get for your breakfast ? Girl—Bread and but-
ter, and coffee,
Mr. BROUGHTON—And for dinner ? The girl ex-
plained that the master gave them one penny a day
eacb, to provide themselves with dinner, as they were

out from morning till night, and after they returned at
night they had a supper of potatoes. They had no beer,
nor anything but the mere potatoes.
Mr. BROUGHTON asked how many her master had in the
same condition as herself ? The girl said he had two
females and a boy, who played the tambourine, They
all fared the same as herself, but one of the girls had
that morning been taken away by her father in conse-
quence of the ill treatment.
A foreigner, who is himself a skin dresser, and em-

-
ploys several young foreigners of both sexes as wander-
ing minstrels, came forward in corroboration of the com-
plainant, whose services he was manifestly desirous of
securing for himself, and he set forth in glowing terms
the superior treatment which his young people received
from him. They had the usual breakfast of bread and
butter and coffee, and a potato° supper at night, but then
he gavo them twopence each for dinner, just double the
allowance given by the other master.
_

Mr. BROUGHTON wondered what sort of dinner the
poor creatures could get for a penny or twopence either,
but, surely, said he, you give them a little beer, or some-
thing with their potatoes at night.
The man said that beer would not do for them, they
never had it when at home, but he sometimes gave them
a leetle bit of meat.

The first master being sent for, attended with his wife,
and alleged that the complainant had been bound ap-
prentice to him by her mother, who was to receive the
remuneration for her services. He undertook to pro-
duce the indentures here at an appointed time, and Mr.
Broughton directed that the other girl who had been
taken from him should also be then in attendance.

LONDON AND DOVER RAILWAY.

The completion of the works from Abbot's Cliff to
Dover, which is now so anxiously looked for, has
(since the period of our last observations) been the
scene of the most active and persevering operations
night and day ; and had it not been for the recent fall
of the cliff at the east entrance to Abbott's Cliff', we
doubt not that the anticipations contained in the last
able report of Mr. Cubitt to the Directors, would
have been fully verified (viz., the opening of the en-
tire line by the Ist of January, 1844), considering
the advantages the late favourable weather has af-
forded.

The tunnelling through the core of the fallen mass,
however, is going on rapidly, and, taking into account
the nature of the work, with much spirit, under the
able management and exertions of Mr. Hodges. This
work, we observe, is now about two-thirds finished,
and in the course-of eight or ten days, we may expect
it will be wholly so. It is satisfactory to observe
that the permanent rails are laid to and from this un-
fortunate barrier, which, when it is removed, an en-
tire opening will be almost instantaneously effected.
The works from Shakspeare Cliff to the terminus are
waiting the completion of this portion of Abbott's
Cliff Tunnel. The lengthened scarpment of the range
of cliff adjoining Arch Cliff Fort, which protruded on
the line, may be said to be finished, and the timber
dike, which retains the formation of the platform in
its ront, is also finished. The continuation of this
dike in front of the terminus is fast advancing ; and
we may here observe that its construction is consi-
dered to be quite new in this country. That portion
of it in front of Arch Cliff Fort (the severest attack-
ing point of the sea), having the double flanged
piles and a backing of cement concrete, seems to be
almost a fac-simile in detail of that designed by Mr.
Steward, of Dover, for the construction of his piers
in the proposed Harbour of Refuge here, with the ex-
ception, perhaps, that Mr. Steward introduces stone
casing and stone ties, instead of the timber casing
and ties.

We observe that a passage-way in front of Arch
Cliff Fort, of several feet wide, is in progress, and
that to facilitate its formation, the old sea-beaten
brow of the Fort has been removed. A distribution
of cast iron and timber groins is in course of being
planted in front of the terminus, for the purpose of
retaining the shingle in front of the platform. This
work, together with the dike and viaduct, from the
immensity of the undertaking, and the manner in
which it is executed, reflect the highest credit on the
contractors, Messrs. Finnis and Walker, as well as on
the professional merit of Mr. Geo. Turnbull, their exe-
cutive engineer.
We understand that the preliminary operations for
the immediate erection of the splendid terminus is to
be proceeded with on Monday, January Ist, by Mr.
Grimsdell, the contractor, whose estimate for the
work, which we have already noticed, amounts to
29,4751.
We hope the people of Dover will not forget the
hint we gave them some time since, to be prepared to
give the Directors a cordial reception on the opening
to Dover of this great undertaking.—Dover Chronicle.

THE QUEEN AND THE DUKE.—At the conclusion
of the banquet at Windsor Castle, on Tuesday evening
last, her Majesty and Prince Albert, with their distin-
guished guests, retired as usual to the green drawing-
room, the Queen's private band being stationed in
the adjoining apartment (the crimson drawing-room),
the folding doors of which were thrown open. In
the course of the evening her Majesty left the private
apartment, arm in arm with the Duke of Welling-
ton, and seated herself with the Duke on her
right hand, and surrounded by the Court, near the
band. After listening to the performance of two or
three compositions, the Queen roso from her seat to
retire, a movement which was, of course, followed by
the who!e of the Royal party, with the exception of
the Duke, who had fallen into a profound nap. Her
Majesty, smiling, and evidently enjoying the involun-
tary forgetfulness of his Grace, playfully tapped the
Duke on his shoulder with her bouquet, which speedily
brought him from a state of momentary oblivion to
perfect consciousness, when the Queen, with a gracious
smile (amidst the suppressed titterings of the illustrious
guests), made his Grace a low curtesy, and taking the
noble warrior's arm in the most kind and affectionate
manner, and laughing the while, proceeded from the
crimson to the green drawing-room, where coffee was
served.

When the body of Casimer Delavigne was lying
in state, three women, closely veiled, were seen to ad-
vance, and throw holy water on the coffin. These ladies
were Mademoiselles Mars, Rachel, and Plessy. Jules
Janin being asked who were these mysterious mummers,
maliciously answered, " that it was the grande come-
dienne (surname of Mademoiselle Mars), the grande
tragedienne (surname of Rachel), with the young lady
who was neither the one nor the other." He might
more justly have said, " the lady who was both." One
very elegant lady excited general curiosity and sym-
pathy. Hidden beneath her thick veil, which prevented
the least feature to be discerned, she followed on foot the
procession throughout the day. She was said to be a
lady to whom the poet had inspired a most tender
passion without ever seeing her, and who followed him
about for years—in all his travels present, but unknown
and unseen.—Purls Letter.
EXTRAORDINARY FREE TRADE DEMONSTRATION.
—On Friday morning last the inhabitants of the village
of Coalbrookdale, in Shropshire, and the immediate
vicinity, were astonished by the announcement, by pla-
card, that a meeting would take place that evening, in
the new Lecture-room, for the purpose of commencing
subscriptions in aid of the Great League Fund of
100,0001. Notwithstanding the very short notice, the
absence of many of the "Stars" of the League, and the
smallness of the population, the room was comfortably
filled ; Abraham Darby, Esq., in the chair. After
speeches from the chairman and others, the subscrip-
tion-cards were handed in, and the amounts
and names were afterwards read. The first
was the ladies' subscription of Coalbrookdale,
(anonymous), 1504 ; then carne Abraham Darby,
Esq., 50/. ; Alfred Darby, Esq., 50/. (these gentlemen
having already given 2001. this year at the Liverpool
meeting); Henry Dickinson, Esq., 501.; Richard Darby,
Esq., 50/. ; W. H. Darby, Esq., 51. (in addition to his
donation at Liverpool) ; Joseph Robinson, Esq., 2/.
(besides a subscription at Liverpool) ; William F. Sim,
Esq., 5/. ; Edward Edwarde, 2/. 2s ; ten of 11., besides
various smaller sums, making in all 148 subscribers ; the
total amount being about 350/. The whole am,unt of
last years' subscriptions, in this part was under 901.

A BACKSLIDING TEETOTALLER.—The New York
papers of the 4th of December contain the following
statement regarding the suicide of a temperate back-
slider ; but when names are not given in such matters
suspicions arise. However, here is the article, and if it
check one " inordinate glass" it will do good :—" We
learn from the Monticello Watchman that a man named
Crocker put an end to his life in the Bethel Church, in
that village, on Saturday last. He had been a drunkard
for twenty-five years, until about three months' since,
when he became a member of the Temperance Society,
and held fast to the pledge till within a few days, when
he joined a hunting party, and was induced by his com-
panions to indulge in liquor. He remained drunk for a
week, and on recovering from his debauch his remorseful
feelings were so strong as to make life a burden. He
shot himself with his rifle, leaving directions that his
body might be prepared for burial by those companions
whose solicitations induced him to return again to the
maddening bowl l"
POOR-LAW YERSITS MORALITY.—A lasting memo-
rial of the folly, wickedness, and depravity of the Bas-
tardy clause in the New Poor-law Act, which exone-
rates the fathers of illegitimate children from any claim
for their support, is yearly shown by the increase of
poor-rates, and the number of illegitimate births. In the
Morpeth Union, during the year ending September last,
out of 476 births, 49 were illegitimate ; and in the town
itself, containing a rural population, ono out of
every six. The workhouse has thus been converted
into a lying-in hospital, and the industrious rate-payers
burthened with the maintenance of mother and child for
twelve or fourteen years, while the depraved father
laughs at the law, and seeks 014 Analwr victim of seduo-

. _
tiorT. It would by well if the local clergy, instead of at-
tempting to revive obsolete and unmeaning ceremonies,
would attend to the morals and instruction of their

people. \Ve understand the guardians of the Morpeth
Union are about to petition Parliament against this ob-
noxious clause of the Act, and we trust to see it followed
up by the various Boards throughout the kingdom,
On Saturday afternoon, two implies were ob-
served gambolling in the river Thames, at a short dis-
tance from Westminster-bridge, on the north side. The
singular novelty attracted a great crowd of persons.
They were visible for a long while at intervals,
The Town-council rof Brighton have purchased a
full-length portrait of his Grace the Duke of Welling-
ton, by Simpson, who for upwards of twenty years was
the principal assistant to Sir T. Lawrence. The portrait
is to be placed in the Town-ball,
