THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY ErENING, OCTOBER 22, 1844.

rangues and toasts, which have never bound seriously
either individuals or nations, amount to a compensation
which will induce France to forget that the treaties of
1831 and 1833 have been obtained from her through
inadvertence, and that there is at Algiers an agent and
Consul-General whose presence is a protest against the
legitimacy of our conquest and of our occupation. The
Chamber of Deputies will require a further pledge than
the cordial understanding. In no country and in no
place has peace more sincere partisans than we are, but
in order that it may be durable it must not be imposed
on us, and deemed to constitute a humble and humiliating
debt of gratitude. Gratitude for England, which during
ten years supplied all Europe with subsidies to make war
against us, and stripped us of the greater part of our
colonies ! And why ? Because she was the first to re-
cognise the Revolution of 1830. But is it not part of the
commercial policy of England to recognise all revolu-
tions, and sometimes even to foment them?"
The Revue de Paris states that—

" Admiral Dupetit Thouars, after having received an
official notice of the disavowal, addressed, not to the Mi-
nister of Marine, but to the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
a complete justification of the measures which he had
adopted at Otaheite. He was then at Valparaiso, and
proposed to return to France. Should he come on di-
rectly he would arrive at Paris before the meeting of
the Chambers, but the Ministers, who have no wish to
see him, have, it is said, addressed further dispatches to
him, which will cause him to change his route."
The Moniteur Algerien contains tidings of ADD-EL•
KADEE, which we subjoin :

" Abd-el-Fader is still encamped at the same place
(El-Aoudj, on the left bank of the Moulonia, twenty-
five leagues to the west of our frontier in Morocco), with
all his people. His Deira consists of about three hundred
tents of the Hachem, Djafra, Beni-Amer, &c. About
eight hundred tents of the same tribes are dispersed
among the Beni-Senassen, Messirda, &c. The camp
consists of three hundred horse and three hundred and
fifty ill-armed infantry. Before he occupied the position
where he now is the Emir was at the Oued-el-Kesseb, near
Aioun-Sidi-Mellout. About 24 days ago he came to El-
Aoudj. His movement towards that point brings him
nearer to the mountains ; he is stated to have made this
movement when he heard of the first negotiations that
preceded the conclusion of peace. In the Deira and in
the camp every body has been attacked with fever, the
mortality has been very great, and the Emir has been
seriously ill. The Deira's flocks are reduced to nothing,
and distress is beginning to be severely felt. Abd-el-
Kader has communicated to all those who have followed
his fortunes the letter written to him by Muley Abder-
rhaman. In that letter the Emperor told him that he
had been a cause of trouble in his States, that he must
disband his remaining troops, disperse his Deira among
the Halafi, and come to ez with his household and-
the chiefs who had followed him. There he would
be supplied with land and all that his cattle might
want ; but he must live in retirement and content
himself with his character of a Marabout ; in short,
if he would not execute this order, he must imme-
diately quit the territory of the empire. The Emir re-
plied that his most ardent wish was to repair to his
Sovereign Lord, whose orders he was most anxious to
obey ; but that disease having attacked all the Mahome-
dans who had fled the Christians and sought a refuge
with him in Morocco, it was impossible for him to aban-
don them in the deplorable situation they were in ; that,
nevertheless, at the end of the Ramadan (11th of Octo-
ber) he would set out, when all the Emperor's orders
would be executed. However, after reading the Empe-
ror's letter, several councils were held in the Deira, as
to what had better be done. It was at first unani-
mously determined not to go to the west. The Emir
and the chiefs, it is said, will not place themselves at
the mercy of the Emperor, who, from fear of the Chris-
tians, may, some day or other, order them to be ar-
rested, and the people of the Deira will not be incorpo-
rated with the Halaf tribe. Though perfectly agreed as
to what should not be done, they would not agree as to
what should be done. Mustapha Ben Thamin proposed
seeking refuge in the Desert, but the recollection of
sufferings and privations formerly endured, and other
reasons, caused the proposal to be rejected by a large
majority ; yet, it is affirmed that it is the determination
the Emir has come to. Some persons believe that he
will not be able to realise his project, and that his
people will desert him. He wishes to proceed thus : to
assemble all the tents of the tribes of the east that have
sought a refuge on the frontier of Morocco, to issue
orders to proceed to the Desert, to have all those who
may refuse to march with him plundered by those who
accompany him, and then to set out. The Emir having,
already often acted in this way, a good number of tents
belonging to the emigrants dispersed among the tribes
have returned to our territory, and gone back to their
country."

The Emperor of Monocco is also stated to have
ordered the treaty of peace concluded with France to
be solemnly published at Fez, where it has been re-
ceived with great demonstration of joy. The troops
assembled near the frontier of Algeria are stated to
have been dispersed, or to have retired to the interior
of Morocco.

THIS DAY'S NEWS

CRIMINAL COURT -(THIS DAY.
OLD COURT.

(Before the RECORDER.)
John Sboud, seaman, aged twenty-two, was placed at
' the bar, charged with stealing three planes, value 55., the
property of Win. Barrington Brown. The prisoner was
detained upon two other charges of larceny.
Mr. Brown was called, and proved that the prisoner
was employed by him. He had from time to time missed
various articles, which he traced to a pawnbroker's, and
which were pawned by the prisoner. He was found with
a cloak in his possession, which he stated he got from a
servant-girl to pawn. It was stated by Mr. Brown that
he had no servant-girl at the time.

The jury found the prisoner Guilty.
The RECORDER asked the prisoner what countryman
he was ? The prisoner replied that he was a native of
St. Helena.

The RECORDER, in passing sentence, said that had the
prisoner been a native of this country he would probably
send him out of the country, but as he was a stranger,
and comparatively unprotected, he would only sentence
him to twelve months imprisonment, with hard labour,
in the House of Corrertion.

There were several other cases disposed of, but they
were all of a trivial character.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(THIS DAY.)
(Before the ASSISTANT JUDGE, and a full Bench n
Magistrates.)

The October Quarter Sessions for the County, was held
by adjournment, this day, at the Guildhall, Westminster.
The calendar contains the names of forty-one prisoners, of
whom three were misdemeanants, and the remaining
thirty-eight charged with felony. Some of the crimes
with which the prisoners arc charged were of a serious
nature.
Tho ASSISTANT JUDGE briefly addressed the Grand
Jury, and congratulated them on the comparative light-
ness of the calendar, stating that there were no points
to which it was necessary for him to advert.
STRIPPING CHILDREN:—A forbidding-looking female,
about forty years of age, was charged with stealing a
quantity of children's apparel, the property of John
Nash, under the following aggravated circumstances.
It appeared by the evidence, that the prosecutor's
two children were playing in the neighbourhood of
Strutton-ground, where the prisoner was seen speaking
to them, and eventually :led them away by the hands.
They were soon aftervre.rds found in a yard, not far
from the spot where she was first seen, with their shoes,
and one of their bonnets and a shawl taken away.
The eldest child, any intelligent girl of about seven
years old, stated that the prisoner led them away under
the pretence of buying /Item cakes,
them in.o the spot where they were found, took away
their clothes. and when she got
The jury after a short consultation brought in a ver-
dict of Guilty ; and the prisoner was sentenced to six
months' imprisonment, with hard labour.
A tall athletic man ,a ,as indicted, under the name of
John Radford, for havhag stolen a coat, value 21, the
property of William NiLiholls.
The prosecutor deported that the prisoner walked
boldly into his shop aboi at twelve o'clock in the day, and
snatching up the coat rt tshed out of the door. He was
pursued, and eventually captured after a smart chase,
when he made a desperate resistance, but was overpowered.
Lieutenant Tracy, the; ;crvernor of Westminster Bride-
well, stated to the Cou rt that the prisoner had been
already twice convicted, gni subjected to a lengthened
imprisonment.

The ASSISTANT JUDGE rsaid the prisoner had had a
narrow escape from transportation. He should give him
one chance more, and only sentence him to six months'
imprisonment, with hard hat .our.
A number of other cases; of petty larceny were tried,
in which there appeared not the slightest point of general
interest, after which the Cot trt adjourned.

GUILDHALL.. --(THIS DAY.)
John Henderson and Cho; les Mortimer were placed at
the bar, before Mr. Alder = an Kelly, charged with hav-
ing attempted to utter a gorged cheque upon the bank-
ing-house of Stone, blartir is. , and Stone, Lombard-street.
The circumstances, as det ailed on the first examination,
were very brief. The che, to to was offered at the Bank,
and at once stopped. It bare the signature of Charles
Stokes, and had been lost 'by that gentleman in Morley's
Hotel, Trafalgar-square, yob ere the priso•ier Henderson
had been engaged as Waite n. The cheque was ultimately
traced to him, and he era 5 in consequence taken into
custody at his lodgings, wl it re, on a further search, a
number of articles, supposel to be stolen from the Hotel,
were afterwards discovered..

The former evidence hek-viing been read, the prisoner
Henderson, and his broth, er -in-law Mortimer, to whom
hel had passed the caeque in the first instance, were
committed for trial. Mortfin ler was held to bail to ap-
pear at the Central Cfimin Court to take his trial, in
case any bill should be prof ?r red against him.

BOW-STREET, —(THIS DAY.)
Two ragged little boys,
ithout shoes or stockings,
and whose rags did not Covet • their backs, named Brian
and Qu
tealay,in were brought be fore Mr. Jardine, charged
with sg a pair of cotton stockings from a shop-door
in the Strand.
The prisoners were Seen no go up to 'the shop-dcor
and take down the stockings:, and they were immediately
given into custody.
The policeman who took. :the prisoners into custody
said the boys had been run ning about the streets all the
previous night.
The little fellows, who did not appear more than
and therefore theyhad tak.cn the stockings, in order that
twelve years of age, said I hat they were almost starved,

they might be taken into custody and conveyed to prison.
They had neither father nor mother, and no friend in
the world.

Mr. JARDINE said they had better be committed for
trial,
.and instructed the officer to inform the judge be-
fore whom they would be tried of their wretched and
destitute condition. They would then, no doubt, upon
conviction, be sent to some asylum where their wants
would be attended to, and provision made for their
future life.

The poor boys were then fully committed for trial, and
they seemed pleased at the prospect of having a shelter,
although that shelter was a prison.

MARYLEBONE.—(THIS DAY.)
AN INCORRIGIBLE HORSE• STEALER.—Edward Drahe
was charged with stealing a pony from a common near
Kempsey, Worcestershire, the property of Andrew
Meridge.
The prisoner, who has been tried on more than one
occasion at the Old Bailey for horse-stealing, was
charged at this office about three weeks ago with stealing
a colt, for which offence he was committed for trial, and
he was yesterday tried and acquitted. On his leaving
Newgate he was apprehended on the above charge.
The prosecutor stated that the pony was stolen on the
morning of the 6th of June last. Information of the
robbery was sent to the police in London, and the pony
was traced to a person named Taylor, a greengrocer, at
Bayswater, who bought it from the prisoner for 51. The
prisoner on being taken into custody by Alfred Hughes,
174 D, said (alluding to the case in which he had been
acquitted)--" I dare say 1 can beat him as in this ease."
Several of his friends came round, and some of them said,
" I sold it to him," " I'll say I sold it."
The prisoner said he bought the pony at Bicester on
the 7th of June, of a person named Hox, who lives at
Woodstock.

Mr. RAwLiNsoN said you are a lucky man to buy so
many stolen horses.

He was then fully committed, and will be tried at the
present sessions, on Thursday next.
[The reporter, in reference to remarks which were
appended to a case disposed of at this court yesterday,
states that there is a great disparity between the deci-
sions of the magistrates of this and other police-courts.
Prostitutes who have been seen by a policeman to speak
to a man in the street, are invariably committed to
the House of Correction for a month without the option
of paying a fine—wretched creatures, who have merely
solicited charity by holding a piece of paper before them
stating that they are in abject want, are as invariably
tent for fourteen days. Drunkenness, unaccompanied
by either obscene language or riotous conduct, is priced
at 55., whilst at Queen-square, and other police-
courts, the really poor are only fined is. Such severity
and straining of the law is highly censurable.]

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY).
George Lee was charged with stealing 51. from his
mother, a poor milk-woman, living in King-street,
Drury-lane.
The prisoner, who did not seem more than fourteen
years of age, has been the torment of his poor mother's
life. Finding her from home a few days ago, the young
rascal broke open a drawer in which the above sum was,
the hard-earned savings of a whole life, and went off
immediately and spent the whole sum among his wicked
companions.—Committed for trial.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
(THIS DAY.)
Timothy Connor, Patrick Conway, and Michael Con-
way, were placed at the bar on the following charge :
William Hasler, the driver of a cab, stated that last
evening as he was sitting on his box on the stand in the
Haymarket, the defendants, who came reeling out of a
cigar shop, seized his horse's head, and drove the animal
sharply round three times. On his remonstrating with
them, the defendant Michael Conway struck him a vio-
lent blow in the face, then tore off his badge and threw
it down in the street ; they were both in a very intoxi-
cated state.

Police-constable, No. 80 of the C division, stated that
he conveyed the defendants to the station-house. On
getting there they behaved in a very riotous and disor-
derly manner, and commenced an attack upon the con-
stable present.
The defendants were fined 31. each, or six weeks' im-
prisonment. Not having the amount required about
them they were locked up.

UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.)
Edward Faithful, a man of respectable appearance,
was charged before Mr. Traill, with having violated the
person of Eliza Nott, the daughter of a tradesman.
From the complainant's statement it appeared that
the prisoner lived next door to her, and that on the pre-
ceding day he called at the house and inquired after her
father. She told him he was out, and, knowing the
family, he walked into the parlour, and, after a little
time, kissed her. That she reproved him, but he paid
no regard to it, and proceeded to use violence towards
her, and threw her down on the floor. She resisted, and
called out, and, according to her evidence, he committed
the capital offence.
Tho complainant underwent a lengthened cross•examii-
nation by Mr. Humphries on behalf of the prisoner, in
the course of which she admitted that a man in her
father's employ called immediately after the ill-usage she
experienced, but she did not claim his protection, nor did
she complain of the conduct of the defendant.
Mr. TRAILL remanded the prisoner until farther evi-
dence is produced on Friday.

BRUSSELS, OCT. 20.—The ratifications of the treaty of
commerce and navigation concluded on the Ist of Sep-
tember between Belgium and the German Zollverein,
were exchanged yesterday at the residence of the Mi-
nister of Foreign Affaires.
We learn that the King has just appointed M. de Perez
Governor of the Dutch settlement at Macassar, :to the
rank of Officer of the Order of Leopold, as an acli .now-
ledgment of the generosity and kindness with whi eh he
received and treated the officers and sailors wreck ed in
the Belgian brig the Charles. His Majesty has also
given the rank of Knight of the Order to Lieutenant F.
Hoofd of the Royal Artillery of the Netherlands, com-
mander of the Arend brig, and to Lieutenant 11 erch,
commanding the Hecla steamer, as an acknowledg.ment
of the eminent services which they rendered Lc' the
Belgian flag in the river of Gooty, in Borneo.
BERLIN, OCT. 11.—Prince Albert, who has hitherto
commanded the fifth division (in the third corps of the
army), has, to the surprise of every body, been deprived
of his command. It is probable that he will shortly ,be
appointed to a higher station in the army.
HANOVER, OCT. 11.—The general conjecture that W.
Von Falcke would be the successor of M. Schele seems
not to be realised. M. Von Falcke will certainly con—
tinue to be the soul of the Cabinet, as he was, but lire
learn that he will certainly not be Minister, and that l ire
has no inclination to become so.— Hamburgh Pape; 'a.

PUGlLlSM.—Yesterday, the fight between Haggerty
and Johnson came off twenty miles down the Brighton
Railway. The men were matched for 201. a-side, and
created a good deal of interest among the Westminster
school. A ring having been formed, the men stripped
and commenced the combat with much quickness. Hag-
gerty soon gave evidence of his superior " generalship,"
and the men fought with great determination ; and at
the expiration of one hour it was quite apparent the
battle was in the hands of Haggerty. They continued
the contest, which occupied one hour and twenty mi-
nutes, when the friends of Johnson withdrew him from
the contest, and Haggerty came off the winner. Hag-
gerty has figured several times in the ring, while John-
son had now made his first appearance.
ANOTHER INSTANCE OF HONESTY NOT REWARDED.
—On Friday, the 27th ult., a boy, named David Lawson,
in the employment of Messrs. Rt bert Mitchell and Co.,
wine-merchants, Old Physic-gardens, Edinburgh, hav-
ing occasion to be in the British Linen Company's Bank,
found a 1001 note, which he handed over to one of the
tellers ; and the note was afterwards claimed by
and —, stockbrokers. We publish the circumstance,
as we understand that the Loy has received no other re-
ward for his honesty.—Edinburgh Observer.
