BOW-S7REE7'.

Yesterday two wretched children,—named Isabella Spicer
and Ann Gardener, the one about twelve years old and the
other nine, were charged with stealing the clothes of a still
younger child, and leaving it almost naked, under one of the
dark ages in the Adelphi.
It was proved that a little boy named Ford, three years of
age, was missed on Saturday evening last, from a yard in front
of his parents' house, in Alilford-lane, Strand, where he had
been in the habit of playing. This was at about half-past six
o'clock, and in abort two hours afterwards the child was found
shiveririg with cold under one of the Adelphi arches, by a labour-
ing man, who found him with nothing but a shirt upon his back,
and who, having ascertained from him his name, and the situa-
tion of his mother's residence, was enabled to carry him home.
The child told his mother that two little girls took him away to
a dark place, and then stripped him of his clothes and ran
away. Ile said he should know them again if he saw them,
and on Monday evening. while walking with his mother near
the Essex-street Tier, he suddenly pointed out a girl (the
younger prisoner), who was running up the steps, as one of
thrne who had robbed him of his clothes. She was at once
captured, and, on being charged with the felony, said "it was
not she, but a bigger girl, living in the New-cut, Lambeth."
Pocock, of the detective force, and another constable, eventual'y
found out the home of the other prisoner, Spicer, whose mother
told the officer that " she was not surprised to hear of the
charge, as her daughter went out on Friday night, and did not
return till one o'clock on Sunday morning."
A clotheswoman, named Rogers, living in Vere-street,
Clare-market, proved that the eldest girl, Spicer, brought the
child's clothes to her shop on Saturday night, and asked
4s. for them, saying that " she had been sent to sell them by
her mother, who lived at 21, St. Clement's-lane." Rogers
paid the money, and gave up the clothe* on being applied to by
the constable.
The prisoner Spicer seemed perfectly regardless of the charge,
and said nothing in her defence. The other cried, and said she
did not have any of the money.
Mr. J.., ant SE committed them both for trial.
Incredible as it must appear to those who know less of the
depraved habits of children than the daily attendance at a
metropolitan police-court, it is a fact that both the prisoners
have been repeatedly in custody cn various charges of felony.
A short time since the oungest was taken up for stealing the
shoes from a child's feet, and selling them ; and Spicer, though
so young in years, is known as quite an obi " offender." Two
years ago she was in charge for an offence committed at a
house of ill-fame, to which she had actually conducted an elderly
man.

WILFUL MURDER.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY MORNlNG.—Yesterday an inquest
was held before Mr. W. S. Rutter and a respectable jury, in one
of the rooms of the:New Bailey, on view of the body of William
Clapham, who was a prisoner, but in the prison hospital. The
name of the murderer is Abraham Tweedle, who was also a
prisoner, having been confined for two months fir neglect of his
family. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner, the
deceased, and John Taylor Veal, were inmates of the same
room, and that the prisoner had been from time to time trouble-
some', and had often been rebuked by his fellow-prisoners. On
Saturday, about twelve o'clock, there having been no previous
quarrel, the prisoner was observed on his knees, as if engaged
in prayer. On a closer inspection it was found that he was in
the act of removing one of the iron cross bars of his bed. Veal
remonstrated with him, and told him he would report him,
whereupon the prisoner drew the bar from under the bed, and
aimed a desperate blow at his head. The deceased, who was
close by, caught hold of the prisoner, and prevented the blow
from taking effect. He immediately turned round and struck
the deceased on the head and felled him on the bed, and whilst
in this position he struck him with the same weapon eight or
nine times, completely shattering his head to pieces, and strew-
ing his brains about the room. Having dispatched his victim,
he turned to Veal, but fortunately he got out of the room with-
out sustaining much injury. By the assistance of Veal and
another prisoner, the turnkey succeeded in securing the mur-
derer, who was locked up in a separate cell. He affected insa-
nity, and at the suggestion of the Coroner the inquest was ad-
journed till Thursday.

These bankrupts were bankers at Chichester, and to-day was
appointed for declaring a dividend under the joint estate.
The solicitor to the fiat applied for the sanction of the Court
for the attendance of the official assignee to pay the dividend
at Chichester, for as it would be the third, and of very small
amount. it would be a great loss to come up to London, as there
were 1,500 creditors. . .

Mr. Whitmore, the official assignee, said he was always
ready to attend, and had even paid dividends at the Isle of
Wight. The real question was, whether the Court would
allow costs to the solicitor for attending to identify the parties.
The COMMISSIONER said he could not admit as a general
principle the necessity of the solicitor to attend and identify the
parties—it was not even required at the bank.
The official assignee said in these cases so many names were
alike that it was a convenience.

The COMMISSIONER said that if the official assignee deemed
it necessary it should be done.
The order was accordingly made.
The amount of dividend will be declared and advertised in a
few days.

DREADFUL RAILWAY
ACCIDENT.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Great Chesterford, August 4, Two o'clock, P.M.
A dreadful accident has just now occurred on the Cam-
bridge line of the North-Eastern Railway, between this and
Littlebury, by the down quick traha running off the line, by
which several carriages were smashed to atoms and set on
fire. The stoker, killed on the spot, now lies under the en-
gine. We can just see his hand, but cannot get him out.
The engineer's leg is smashed, and several persons are sitting
about the corn fields with bruises and contusions, and clothes
torn to pieces. Trunks and carpet bags are torn and broken
to pieces, some burnt, and the contents are lying about in all
directions. Men with pails of water are endeavouring to
quench the fire of the wreck, which is burning most furi-
ously. This line has only been opened five days.
Since writing the above, I hear there are two more persons
very much hurt.
. .

ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS.
We have just seen a gentleman who was one of the pas-
sengers by the up-train from Norwich, and who witnessed
the accident. Ile states that the quick down-train ran off
the line on which it was travelling across the other line,
and tore up the rails of both. The engine was upset and
was lying across the rails. The stoker was killed, the
engine fell on him and his head was severed from his body.
The guard had both his legs broken ; the baggage-waggon
caught fire and two or three of the carriages were burnt.
The up-train from Norwich, which was due at three, did
not arrive at Shoreditch until after 11 o'clock. Our informant
took a post-chaise at Chesterford, and arrived at the Shore-
ditch station, at which hour they had received no informa-
tion of the accident. He complains of the treatment he met
with at the station. General Pasley went over the road on
Monday week. On Tuesday the Directors took an experi-
mental trip, and on Wednesday it was opened to the public.
There are various rumours as to the cause of the accident, to
which we shall not at present give currency, as no doubt the
most searching inquiry will be instituted by the proper autho-
rities.
London, England, 1845-08-06

OTAHEITE.

Mr. HINDLEY gave notice that he would, on Friday next,
ask a question of the Right Hon. Baronet, relative to the an-
nexation of Otaheite by the French to the island of Rio.-
( The remainder of the name was inaudible in the gallery.)
RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.

Lord PALNIERSTON said he had a question to ask of the
Right Hon. Gentleman opposite, and he would state the reason
why he asked it. He had received a letter from a friend of his
who stated that he had travelled by one of the trains on the
Sminden line, and had observed an engine behind. He re-
monstrated against this ; but the answer he received wa., that
it was the constant practice. Now, the question he wanted
to ask was, had the Board of Trade any power to prevent this
practice ; and, if they had not, whether the Government would
bring in a Bill this ses.ion to provide are medy ? He conceived
it to be very easily done, and prepared and passed in one day.
Sir G. CLERK said that the Board of Trade had no power
whatever to remedy the practice complained of ; but they al-
ways remonstrated, and offered suggestions.—He was not
surprised at the statement which the Noble Lord had urged in
reference to this subject, as the matter had already excited con-
siderable attention. It had been customary to attach two en-
gines to the mail trains. This he believed was the regular
practice between Euston-square and Camden-town. With re-
gard to this practice, the Board of Trade had always repre-
sented to railway companies the extreme impropriety of this
course ; and it had to a great extent been abandoned. He
had, however, no doubt but that the Board of Trade world
give its tont attention to the subject. Should the Noble Lord
think its p .wer was not sufficient, some legislative steps should
be taken next session ; but if the Noble Lord thought fit, a
Bill might be introduced and carried through its various
stages in the present session.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

An accident occurred on the Eastern Counties Railway,
on Monday, to the train leaving town for Norwich, at half-
past eleven o'clock, a.m., by which the fireman on the train
lost his life and one of the guards was seriously injured. From
some cause which cannot at present be clearly ascertained the
engine was thrown off the rails when passing over the embank-
ment near Wendon, about 12 miles below Cambridge. It is
thought that one of the wedges having started from its posi.
fiat: was the cause of the accident. The engine and tender
were thrown over upon the up-line of rails, and the trucks,
with the passengers' luggage, and some of the carriages were
very much broken. Most providentially none of the. passen-
gers were injured. The fireman was thrown under the
engine and killed upon the spot. One of the guards had his
leg broken, and the engine-driver, or superintendent of the
engine department, was much shaken by the concussion.
The officers of the company were sedulously engaged in as-
certaining the•cause of the accident, which at present appears
involved in considerable uncertainty.

FRANKFORT V. FRANKFORT.

This was a question whether Lord Frankfort was entitled to
deduct from his payments of permanent alimony, which the
Court had allotted to Lady Frankfort, the property-tax.
The COURT intimated that it had been its intention that the
alimony should be paid clear of the tax ; but as the question
depended upon the construction of the Property-tax Act, he
should take time to consider it.

WANDSN'ORTIL

On Saturday four labouring men applied to Mr. Clive for
summonses against a man named Davis, who is a " gauger"
on the Richmond Railway, for the non-payment of wages.
John Nagle, the spokesman of the party, stated that he
went to work on the Richmond Railway, at Barnes, on Mon-
day week. A man named Davis, who is the gauger on that
portion of the line, engaged him and others, and agreed to
give them 2s. 6d. a day fur their labour. When they asked
for the money Davis gave them what he called shilling
tickets, and told them to go to his shop. Having no money
they were obliged to go to his shop and be satisfied with what
was° given them. He, with eight or nine others, asked.
Davis on Friday morning to let them have money instead of
tickets. He said he could not settle with them then, and
kept them waiting until twelve o'clock, when they were told,
as they had broken the day, they were not allowed to go to
work; so that at the present time they were without work
or money. _ . .

Mr. .CLIVE-I am afraid you can make nothing of it.
You have consented to be paid in tickets, and it is very
probable that there is little or nothing coming to you. If,
when you first went to work, you had refused to accept
tickets, but required money, and the party had declined
giving it you then, I would, upon your applying to me, have
granted a summons instantly Even now I will grant you
one, but I fear you will be throwing your money away.
The applicant then said he would take a summons out,
but on being asked for the court fees, two shillings, he de-
clared that he had no money.

(Sittings it Banto.)
EX FAME TIDE r•AArstlloNEns OF WAREFIEM
Mr. BAYNES applied for a rule to show cause Why i Man-
damus should not issue commanding the IteV. Sanntel Sharpe,
vicar of the parish of Wakefield, to entet on the vestry ke-
cords an adjournment of a vestry Meeting of October 14.
The Learned Gentleman stated that tin the 10th of AttiAilit
notice was given that a meeting of the.pariAoneri Veil, axe-
field, to take into consideration the making br A church-rate,
would be held. The rate Wits to be made for the parish
church of Wakefield, :AIM 1`.;0 for another church, which was
maintained under a particular
111. The parishioners -4,sembied on the 14th, and it was
proposed that a -rate of one penny in the pound ;Wald be
levied. S-
:.;atute under the 85th of Geo.
, ,-, -.fie person proposed that the %/Airy should adjourn
'°r '_4 months, and that proposition was seconded, but was
negatived by a show of hands. After a short disatissintli the
vestry decided against the rate. A poll was demanded on the
' 18th, which poll continued until the 2d of September. 0
that day the vicar declared the poll to be closed. The number
in favour of the rate was declared to be 2,376, and the num-
ber against it 2,361, leaving a majority of 15 in favour of the
rate. During the course of the polling, the vicar received
the votes unassisted by any member of the legal profession,
and when any vote was objected to, the vicar made a memo-
randum of it, saying that it would be entered into thereafter.
He said that such votes and the poll in general would be
examined by a scrutator. As the pall closed, a demand was
made for a scrutiny, and the vicar declared that he would go
home and count the numbers, and then seal up the books to
be examined by the scrutator. It was then pointed out to
him that he had in one case inserted only one vote where four
ought to be allowed. On his declaring the numbers, he was
again called upon to grant a scrutiny, and he then positively
refused to do so. The proceeding was, without that
scrutiny, wholly incomplete, and the object of this applica-
tion was to compel the vicar to take the proper
steps to render the proceeding complete. The consequence of

TflE POE L- TICA WORKS OP COWPER ;
Correctly Printed from the Text of the Rev. T. S. GRIM-
SHA WE'S Edition. To which is now prefixed, an Original Preface
by the same Editor.
Little need be said to point out the merits and excellencies of
Cowper, with whose poetry all are familiar; but what are the causes
that have contributed to the universal popularity of this admired
writer? The answer is, that he is the poet of domestic life ; he
brings all the endearments of Moms before us ; he is the poet of
Nature, which he describes in all its diversified aspects ; and he is
also the poet of Christianity, for no man contributed more to the re-
vival of Protestant Christianity when it had sunk to the level of mere
morality. Nor ought we to "omit not!cing tha genuine English feel-
ing and ardent love of his country which so frequently burst forth in
the poems of Cowper. A few copies printed in royal 18mo., price

Notwithstanding the comparatively high prices at which
most descriptions of meat are now selling, the arrivals from
all quarters far our markets during the past week have been
on a very moderate scale, though they have proved of full
average quality. The supplies of London killed meat having
been small, the general demand has ruled active, and the
quotations have been somewhat on the advance. Very few
carcases of foreign Beef or Mutton have appeared on sale.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH-(THIS DAY.)

THE QUEEN AT THE PROSECUTION OP ROBERT GRAY V.
. JAMES BIRCH, PROPRIETOR OF TAE "WORLD" NEWS-

PAPER.
Mr. Fitzgibbon, Q.C., moved that the traverser in this
case should be called up for judgment.
Mr. Henn, Q.C., opposed the motion, on the ground
that there was an understanding between the parties that
judgment should not be moved for, in cousequence of
which his client, Mr. Birch, did not avail himself of the
privilege of moving for a new trial during the days in
the present term set apart for hearing new trial motions;
and, also, upon the absence of the Chief Justice, before
.whom the trial took place, at Trinity Term last.
The Court conceded the objections urged by Mr. Henn,
and ordered that the case should stand over until Mon-
day, the 19th of January next.

Woo',lnca GARRISON, Nov. 20.—An important
point has been decided by the Board of Ordnance, respect-
ing the legality of the attestment of recruits from the
Royal Artillery and Engineers, by Sir John Webb, the
director-general of the Ordnance medical department, and
a justice of the peace for the county of Kent. The gallant
knight has been for more than thirty years in the habit of
attesting recruits, but it appears that the Mutiny Act re-
quires that the attestation shall not be performed by any
officer on full pay, and, consequently, the men who peti-
tioned the board for their discharge under the above cir-
cumstances, were yesterday desired to return their arms
and accoutrements into the stores. A garrison order is
expected to be issued by the commandant, notifying that
" those who choose to take their discharge may, but those
who wish to remain in the Ordnance corps must be re-
attested in a legal manner, without prejudice to their
former service in the corps." Many have sent in their
names band; and it is com-
pute:;
that,foi daitschhaormgee,

hundreds will
apply to be released from a military life, and solely on account
of the miserable pittance of 6d. per,servitude. A similar day being now allowed as
a pension after twenty-five years
occur-
rence took place in theyear 18334. It appeals that Sergeant
Sloan, of the Royal Artillery, was under a garrison court-
martial for a military offence; he pleaded that the members of
the court had nojurisdiction, as he had never been "attested,"
having only joined the regiment as drum-'boy; his objection
was found to he fatal to the proeedings. This had the
effect of causing an investigation into these attestations,
when it proved that an immense number of soldiers who had
entered the service when mere boy s had not been properly
attested. A garrison order was then issued to take those
that remained before Sir John Webb, to be dully" attested,"
but thia form appears now to be invalid, according to mai.
tax law.

LITERAT URE.

POEMS by ELIZA COOK. Third Edition. Illustrated,
Several years have elapsed since these poems made
their first appearance : during that period. they have
made rapid and unceasing progress in public favour—
they have spread through the length and breadth of the
land, and resounded even in the " far west." Wherever
they have been known they have been appreciated and
admired, and the cause is simple—their charm is nature;
they breathe the language of truth, the spirit of genuine,
unaffected feeling. They seek not to impress the under-
standing or arrest the fancy ;, they speak to the
heart, and they do not speak in vain. What wonder,
then, that their fame is universal. Science and phi-
losophy may interest the learned, but the voice of feel-
ing is understood by all. Only the favoured few are
endowed with high intellect, but every human being has
a heart. True, somehre shrouded by pride, or chilled
by avarice • many are concealed by the empty nothings
of the world, but even the coldest and sternest has some
common sympathies, some chords that will re-echo to
the voice of truth—

QUEEN-SQUARE.

On Saturday, George Banham, 84 B, was charged before
Mr. Burrell with breaking a poor girl's arm.
Sarah Brady, the complainant, who was very poorly and
wretchedly clad, said, that on the evening of Saturday week
she had occasion to come to Westminster, and was returning
towards home at about 12 at night,when she met a man with
whom she had been acquainted. She was walking by his side
up Tothill-street, engaged quietly in conversation with him,
when on arriving at the corner of a court, defendant came up,
and, orderingher to go on,shoved herdownthe court. She told
him that she did not live that way, and was going home.
Defendant, however, would insist upon her going that way,
in consequence of which she remained in the court for a
minute or two, until he had gone on another part of his
beat, when she came out and joined her friend, and they pro-
cecded to the corner of Dean-street, where she was bidding
him good night, when defendant came up again, and, with-
out speaking a word, seized her by the arm, turned her
round, and pushed her some distance up the street, and then
left her. She leant up against a hoarding, and finding her-
self in great pain, and her arm useless, she informed her
Mold, who recommended her to go immediately to the
Wesminster Hospital, which she did. It was there found
that her arm was broken, and the house-surgeon having set
it, she went to the station and complained of defendant's
conduct.

The young man alluded to, and another who was in com-
pany with him at the time, confirmed the girl's account of
the defendant's violence.

Inspector Forbes was then called, and said that when com-
plainant came to the stati,,n to prefer a complaint against
the policeman she was drunk. Defendant had been in the
force six years, and bore a very fair character. There had
been some trivial reports against him, and one for drun-
kenness.

Mr. 'BURRELL observed that, after the distinct evidence
which had been given for the prosecution, it would be very
difficult for him to come to any other conclusion than that
the girl had been treated with great violence. She might
have been obstructing the way, but that would not justify
such treatment as she had received. He did not impute to
defendant for a moment that he had intended to break the
girl's arm, but he had been guilty of great violence towards
her, and he must convict him in the penalty of 51.
The fine was paid,_
