Law .3.142) P01.76:CE.

In the Court of Queen's Bench the case of the Queen v.
Lord Ashburton and others, after two days' hearing, was
brought to a close, when the jury returned a verdict for the
defendants.

At Queen's-square John Bransgrove, captain of the Eclipse,
Richmond steamer, appeared on a summons, charging him
with assaulting, on hoard that vessel, Mr. Thomas Houghton,
residing in Blizzard's-place, Fulham-road. The assault arose
out of a dispute about the amount of fare during the Thames
regatta on Thursday week. Mr. Bond said the outrage was
one which called for a marked punishment,. He should in-
flict a fine of 51., in default of which committal for two
months. The fine was paid.
At the Mansion-house a woman of respectable appearance,
'of the name of Catherine Hall, dressed in deep mourning,
was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having
attempted to drown herself in the Thames, near London-
bridge. She was remanded.
The Thames Police-office was crowded with persons who
attended to prefer complaints against an elderly and well-
dressed Jew, named Moses Martin, of Petticoat-lane, who
surrendered, before Mr. Broderip, to answer a charge of
cheating numerous small shopkeepers. Several cases were
adduced and evidence given. Mr. Broderip said it was quite
clear the prisoner had been going on defrauding the public
for a long time, and advised all the parties to go and indict
him at the sessions now holding. Two Jews became bail for
Martin, and he was dismissed.

THIS DAYS NEWS.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

We (Herald) have just received the following
7rom our Paris correspondent
PARIS, TUESDAY, Two P.M.

An extraordinary courier, who left Perpignan on
the 29th of June, brings the following important in-
telligence

"The Emperor of Morocco has rejected the ulti-
matum of the Spanish Government.
" The Emperor has equally rejected the proferred
mediation of England.
" The four Spanish Ministers now at Barcelona
will return to Madrid at the end of this present
week."

Our Paris correspondent, writing at two o'clock
P.M., says, that the impression produced by the
news of the Emperor's obstinacy, in the best poli-
tical circles, is, that France must have recourse to
most decisive measures. France and Spain, it is
concluded, are equally set at defiance, and England
barred from interference.

many years, to boast loudly of the open and straight-

to look down with contempt on the continental nations,
for their tame submission to the abominable system of
espionage in which their governments so generally id-

INDIA.

The follmi ing extract is taken from the Bombay
Monthly Times of the 20th of May :

" Considerable alarm prevailed at Shikarpore in conse-
quence of the return of Captain Tait and Lieutenant Fitz-
gerald with a force of SOO men, which had been repulsed at
Poolajee, and were followed by the enemy back to camp.
London, England, 1844-07-03

SIDE.

"Theßeloochees having come downtoplunder the country
round Shikarpore, had destroyed several villages within a
few miles of our camp. Captain Tait, with 600 irregular
horse, and Lieutenant Fitzgerald, with 200 of the camel
corps, had gone out in quest of them, and having crossed
the desert proceeded till very near the entrance of the
Murree hills—the scene of so many of our misadventures in
1840. The enemy were here in considerable force, and had
taken refuge in the strong fort of Poolajee. An attempt
was made by Lieutenant Fitzgerald to blow open the gate
with powder-bags and storm the town. The first operation
was unsuccessful, the leading man carrying the gun powder
having been killed on his way towards the gate. The fire
from the walls was found so hot that our troops were com-
pelled to retire—the enemy following them the whole way
back to camp, a distance of seventy miles. The coast being
thus clear, the Beloochees proceeded with fresh alacrity to
renew their forays, and to strip the unprotected country
round Shikarpore of everything that could be carried away."

FUNERAL OF MR. T. CAMPBELL,
IN WESTMINSTER ABBEY.

The funeral of this distinguished poet and excellent
man took place this day in Westminster Abbey. An
immense number of his friends and admirers—and no
man ever had more—attended on the occasion ; indeed
the Jerusalem Chamber was crowded to suffocation
with people anxious to pay the last tribute of their
respect to the memory of the author of the " Pleasures
of Hope." Mr. Campbell's grave was dug in the centre
of Poets' Corner, and among the assembled mourners
we recognised Lords Brougham, Campbell, and
Aberdeen, Sir Robert
.Peel, and many other indi-
viduals of note in the political and literary world.
The funeral service was read by Mr. Millman, him-
self a poet, and with an impressive feeling and
solemnity that touched the hearts of all who heard
him. While looking round on the busts and
monuments of departed men of genius which
thickly stud " Poets' Corner," we could not help
sterm—that
from among these
lamenting and wondering at the bigotry—for we fear
exclusion
cc
launs beio n o
called ed
Lordbyß
no
yr o ngentler'
statue errn—that led to the
national memorials. Here it should have stood,
for among our national poets no man occu-
pies a more distinguished rank than the
author of " Child° lIarold." It was a poor—a petty
excuse for depriving him of the posthumous honour
which was his due, for the Dein and Chapter of West-
minster to allege that he had written " Cain." The
question was not one of orthodoxy but of genius, and
should have been regarded as such. The man whsse
works are published in full, without any erasures,
precisely as originally written, by the High-Church-
and-State bibliopolist, Mr. Murray, could not have
been so immoral and heretical an author as to justify
our ecclesiastical authorities in closing the doors of
Westminster Abbey on his ashes.

LAW AND POLICE.

In the Court of Queen's Bench the caseof the Queen v.
Lord Ashburton and others, after two days' hearing, was
brought to a close, when the jury returned a verdict for the
defendants.

At Queen's-square John Bransgrove, captain of the Eclipse,
Richmond steamer, appeared on a summons, charging him
with assaulting, on board that vessel, Mr. Thomas Houghton,
residing in Blizzard's-place, Fulham-road. The assault arose
out of a dispute about tae amount of fare during the Thames
regatta on Thursday week. Mr. Bond said the outrage was
one which called for a marked punishment. He should in-
flict a fine of 51., in default of which committal for two
months. The fine was paid.
At the Mansion-house a woman of respectable appearance,
of the name of Catherine Hall, dressed in deep mourning,
was brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having
attempted to drown herself in the Thames, near London-
bridge. She was remanded.
The Thames Police-office was crowded with persons who
attended to prefer complaints against an elderly and well-
dressed Jew, named Moses Martin, of Petticoat-lane, who
surrendered, before Mr. Broderip, to answer a charge of
cheating numerous small shopkeepers. Several cases were
adduced and evidence given. Mr. Broderip said it was quite
clear the prisoner had been going on defrauding the public
for a long time, and advised all the parties to go and indict
him at the sessions now holding. Two Jews became bail for
Martin, and he was dismissed.

PO .SIGN.

On Saturday evening their Majesties the King and Queen
of the French received the British Ambassador, Lord Cowley,
the Hanoverian Ambassador, the Prefect of the Seine, Mar-
shal Gerard, Admiral Willaumez, General Marquis de La-
place, and Barons de Mareuil et Ayme.
The Moniteur Parisien announces that the King and
Queen of the Belgians are expected to arrive shortly at the
Palace of Neuilly.
The Presse All the Peers and Deputies who have
co-operated in the formation of railway companies have, we
are assured, given in their resignations." The Patrie doubts
the truth of this statement, the Chamber of Peers not hav-
ing yet sanctioned the amendment of M. Cremieux against
Deputies being connected with railroad companies.
A Toulon letter, of th e 26th Ult., says—" The IZubis, which is
to form part of the expedition under the Prince de Joinville,
takes out a large quantity of Congreve rockets. The Marengo
and the Neptune are taking in provisions, and will imme-
diately proceed to join the expedition. The Belle Pouffe,
which has taken on board a large quantity of bags of earth,
has sailed, as has also the. Gassendi. '

A letter front Barcelona, of the 24th ult., states that Mr.
Bulwer, the English Ambassador, who has been for some
time in a weak state of health, has left Barcelona, for the
baths of Caldas. The day before his departure, he sent his
secretary to London, with dispatches. The same letter in-
forms us that the two Queens are expected to remain for
some months in Barcelona.

The Opinion of Auch states that all the preliminary pro-
ceedings in the affair of Mme. Lacoste, accused of poisoning
her husband, have been completed, and that notice has been
served at the former residence of Mme. Lacoste, that she must
constitute herself prisoner within the space of ten days after
the date of the notification. The trial is fixed for July 10;
and the chemists of Paris, MM. Flandin, Pelouze, and Du-
vergie, are summoned to attend on that day, as well as their
medical brethren of Auch.

On Tuesday last many of the communes of Saone-et-
Loire had nearly all the growing crops destroyed by the
effects of a violent storm. In a few minutes the ground was
covered with thick layers of hailstones of enormous size.
Many roofs of buildings were greatly damaged, and the
destruction of glass was so extensive that it will require many
days to replace it.
The state of the crops in France is generlly satisfactory.
Wheats are fine, although they have suffered in some places.
It is said that the grain will be excellent, but the quantity of
straw will be but small. A slight tendency to a fall in prices
has already been perceptible in some markets.

POZZEIGIC.

The intelligence brought by the Overland Mail from India
and China is not important, with the exception of that from
the Punjaub. There several bloody conflicts had taken place,
no recognised authority existed, and it was considered cer-
tain that the British would be compelled to interfere. In-
deed orders had been given for collecting two large Anglo-
Indian armies on the Sutlej.
The King and Queen of the French left Neuilly at eleven
o'clock for Paris on Saturday, where they remained till six,
and then returned to the chateau.
The Toulonnais of the 27th ult. announces that the two
ships of the line, Marengo and Neptune, were taking in pro.
visions, and would in all probability join the Morocco squa-
dron.

The Emperor of Russia had returned to St. Petersburgh, in
perfect health, during the night between the 18th and 19th
ult. The state of health of her Imperial Highness the Grand
Duchess Alexandra, consort of Prince Frederick of Hesse,
was considered to be hopeless.
The Academy of Antiquarian Science at Rome having in-
serted the name of the King of Bavaria in their album of ho-
norary members, Prince Odescalchi, Count Albergotti, and
Chevalier Ercoli Visconti wero deputed to present the
diploma to his Majesty who received the distinguished noble-
men with much cordiality. _ _ _ _

It is affirmed that the Duke de Bordeaux will shortly pro-
ceed to Baden-Badeu, and remain there some time. A large
number of Legitimatists are expected to visit that delightful
place at the same time.
Accounts from Constantinople of the 12th ult. announce
the return of the Sultan.

The Swiss Extraordinary Diet met at Lucerne on the
25th, when the subject of the late insurrection in the Valais
was immediately taken into consideration. The President
made a speech, in which he praised the conduct of the inha-
bitants of the Higher Valais, and condemned that of the
LoWer Valais. The Diet decided unanimously, that the law
of the land justifies a federal intervention in the canton of
Valais.

The Gazette dAugsburgh, of the 26th, says that the Papal
Government had addressed a note to the Cabinets of Lon-
don, Paris, and Vienna, contradicting the assertion that the
late troubles in the legations were caused by a vicious system
of administration.

The consort of the Duke Bernhard of Saxe-Weimar, the
Princess Caroline of Hesse, as well as the Prince Ernest of
Barchfeld, and the Princess of Hohenzollern, have arrived at
Liebenstein, on a visit to her Majesty. the Queen Dowager of
England, who intends to reside there from six to eight weeks.
Several other illustrious persons are expected there; among
others, the King of Hanover, the Grand Duke of Saxe-
Weimar, the Duke of Saxe-Coburg Gotha, together with the
Duchess of Kent, and the Prince of Leiningen.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

We (Herald) have just received the following
from our Paris correspondent
PARIS, TUESDAY, Two P.M.

An extraordinary courier, who left Perpignan on
the 29th of June, brings the following important in-
telligence :
" The Emperor of Morocco has rejected the ulti-
matum of the Spanish Government.

" The Emperor has equally rejected the proferred
mediation of England.
"The four Spanish Ministers now at Barcelona
will return to Madrid at the end of this present
week."

Our Paris correspondent, writing at two o'clock
P.M., says, that the impression produced by the
news of the Emperor's obstinacy, in the best poli-
tical circles, is, that France must have recourse to
most decisive measures. France and Spain, it is
concluded, are equally set at defiance, and England
barred from interference.

It is well known that the convicts Barber and Fletcher
have been some time on board the a nvict-ship Agincourt,
lying off Woolwich, under orders to sail for the penal settle-
ments on Thursday, the 4th instant (this day). Yesterday
morning Barber's attorney, Mr. Peckham, received the docu •
went of which the following is a copy from the officer in
charge of the convicts, and instantly hastened to the Home-
office in order to submit it to Sir J. Graham.
Up to a late hour last evening no answer had been re-
ceived :
