BO ii'-STREET

Wthiam lenses, acabman, was charged with being drunk
and disorderly, and with assaulting a young woman named
Emma Haywood. who was also placed at the bar charged with
being drunk and disorderly.
Policeman F 65 found the prisoners, at half-past eleven
o'clock last night, at the door of the public-house, the Coach
and Horses, in Bow-street, from which they were turned out,
where James was beating the other prisoner violently. Hay-
wood called upon him to take the man in charge, which he did.
Inspector Logan, of the F division, said that the policeman
brought the prisoner James to the station a little before twelve
O'clock. He received the charge, but the girl Haywood using
very foul language, insisting on his liberation, he (witness)
thought it necessary to lock her up also.
The prisoner Haywood denied having been drunk. She had
been beaten severely by the other prisoner, and she went into
hysterics at th© station. She denied using any bad language.
Mr. JARDINE said that he must sentence both prisoners to
seven days' imprisonment.
The prisoner Haywood asked whether there was any fine, as
she had an infant at home to which no one would attend during
her imprisonment.
Mr. JARDINE said he would not fine the prisoner. He would
send to the house she lived at to ascertain whether she had a
child there, and if so, it should be taken care of during her
imprisonment.

Present Proposed Distance

Leicester to Birmingham.... 49 ........ 37 .. ••.. • • 12
Leicester to Coventry ...... 31 ••..• • • • 24 ..... •• • 7
This line will commence at or near the Wigston station of the Mid-
land Counties Railway, at such point as may best suit the successful
line from London through South Leicestershire, and will pass by or
near the manufacturing localities of Narborough, Sapcote, Earl
Shilton, Burbage, and .Hinckley, through a district most favourable
for engineering purposes, to a junction with the Trent Valley at Nun-
eaton. thence it continues nearly due west to the Whitacre station of
the Birmingham and Derby Railway, and south-west by Bedworth
to the Coventry station of the London and Birmingham Company.
The line will communicate with the Swannington Railway either by
means of the proposed Broughton Astley branch of the Midlands, or
of a separate branch to be formed by this Company ; thereby opening
the entire of the Leicestershire coal-field to the counties south-east
of Leicester.

The Directors, for the last few months, having used their best
exertions for the interests of the Company, feel it their duty, now
that the surveys, plans, and other arrangements are so far advanced,
to acquaint their shareholders with the position and prospects of the
undertaking.
The Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton line, which received the
favourable report of the Board of Trade, and was before Parliament
last session, forms part of the present projected plan for connecting
Leicester, Coventry, and Birmingham.
_.. . .

The Directors have, by person7tl inspection, accompanied by their
engineer, satisfied themselves of the remarkable facilities presented
by the district for executing the greater part of the line ; and from
careful investigation the Directors have the pleasure of informing the
shareholders that this undertaking eannot fail to prove a profitable
investment if supported by local traffic only, and with the certainty
that a through traffic from the eastern and western lines, combined
with the great advantages afforded by the junction with the Trent
Valley for the transit of goods to and from Liverpool, Scotlaid, Ire-
land, and the United States, its importance cannot be overestimated.
• From the • extent •of population accommodated by this railway
—from the• convenience afforded to the trade and manufactures of
the Midland Counties—from the vast mineral resources of the dis-
tricts traversed, and from its position in regard to other important,
established, and projected railways, the Directors feel confident that
it will be amply remunerative to the Shareholder, and highly advan-
tageous to the public.

The capital has bean subscribed, and the Parliamentary deeds have
been executed, and the preliminary survey completed.
A list of a new and highly influential local direction, and a map of
the line, will be published in a few days.

CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.

Two decent, hard working young men, named Tubb and Luke,
were charged with stealing a set of harness, the property of Mr.
Pugh, a tradesman residing in Cromer-street, Brunswick.aquare.
Mr. Pugh swore that the harness were stolen from Thanet-
mews, Burton-crescent. One of the prisoners, after his appre-
hension said he had been in the mews on the night the robbery
was committed.
Mr. GREENWOOD—WeII. Witness—That is all I can say.
Mr. GREENWOOD (to police sergeant 13 E, who had charge of
the case—Have you no further evidence. The sergeant—
the Nmen o, Sir. ?
Mr. GREENWOOD—Then why did you arrest
(The prisoners were apprehended on the previous evening, and
locked up until brought before the magistrate this morning.)
The Sergeant—One of them said he had been in Thanet-mews
be
on the night of the robry; that he went for his coat,
Mr. GREENWOOD—Why, you might as well arrest any one
passing along the public street. I must say it is not fair to arrest
men at haphazard, and then put these questions with the •iew of
extracting answers to criminate themselves. Let the men be
discharged.

LOSS OF LIFE THROUGH TILE BONE OF A HERRING.
—An inquest was held by Mr. Mills, at the St. John of Jerusalem,
St. John-street, on the body of Mr. Feeney, printer, aged
30, late of No. '26, St. John street. Last Thursday week de-
ceased was eating a red herring, when one cf its bones sticking in
his throat caused him to cough so violently that a spitting of blood
followed. On the following morning his foreman went to deceased's
bed-room, when he found him dead in bed and covered with blood,
which, it was supposed, he spat in a renewed fit of coughing, and
which, from want of assistance, choked him. Verdict—" Natural

,ON DON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.
The Directors of the London and Birmingham Railway feel
themselves called upon to give Notice, that that Company has no
connexion whatever with a proposed line, announced as the " Lon-
don and Birmitmham Extension Railway." The Directors of the
London and Birmingham Railway have instructed Mr. Robert
Stephenson to make the necessary surveys for a line from North,
amptcn to Weedon, to connect their Peterborough Branch with the
proposed London, Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderrninster line;
Acts for both which lines will be applied for in the ensuing Parlia-
mentary session.
The London and Birmingham Railway Company' being of opinion
that the proposed London and Kidderminster line . is, in connexion
with the London and Birmingham line, best adapted for the accom-
modation of the Public, will give It their most cordial support and
co-operation. , By order,

MARYLEBONE.

Mr. Joseph Oaten, late of the firm of Finney and Oaten,
coal merchants, South Wharf-road, Paddington, was brought
up by Glasscock, 22 D, by whom he had been apprehended at
Liverpool, on a warrant obtained against him at the instance of
the parish authorities of Paddington, on the charge of having
deserted his wife and four children, who had thereby become
chargeable to the parish in question.
Prior to the case being gone into, the defendant caressed all
his children (girls) in the fondest manner imaginable, and the
whole of them were in tears ; his wife had no conversation with
im whatever.

From the statement of Mrs. Oaten, it appeared that she had
been married fourteen years to defendant, and that he deserted
her in May last, leaving her and her four children to provide
for themselves in the best way they could ; he went off with
another woman, with whona he had since been living, and com-
plainant had, in consequence thereof, been under the necessity
of applying to the parochial officers for support.
Mr. RAVILINSON (to defendant)—This is a short and very
lamentable story ; what have you to say to it? Defendant—
I left her because it was quite impossible that we could live
together.
%Ir. WLINSON—You surely don't imagine that you could
be justified in running away from her and the children, leaving
them to be kept by the parish, while you, at the same time, are
living in adultery with another. Defendant-1 am out of a
situation now, Sir, and so I was when I left them.

Mr. Percy, the relieving officer, claimed 31. ss. for thirteen
weeks, at ss. per week. Defendant had been employed by the
Great Western Railway Company as a " mapper, and was
capable of making a good income.
The defendant, with whom the relieving officer declined to
come to any arrangement, as the Board of Guardians instructed
him to press for a committal, was sent to the House of Correc-
tion for a month.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

Ellen Ryan was charged with stealing a shawl, value 35., from
Sarah Brennan, the keeper of a " wardrobe shop" in King-street,
Long-acre.
The prosecutrix said that the prisoner, who was an old acquaint-
ance of hers, came to see her yesterday, and having been in her
shop talking with her for some time, asked her to go and get some
beer. She went out for some beer, and on returning she thought
she saw the prisoner putting something under her shawl.
The prisoner immediately said, without having been accused by
her, that she had not stolen anything. She saw at once, however,
that the shawl had been removed. She immediately taxed the pri-
soner with taking it, and sent her little girl to fetch a policeman,
standing in the doorway in the meantime to prevent her from
escaping. As soon as the child was gone, theprisoner tookthe shawl
from under the one she wore at the time, and, running to the door
which led to the next room, threw it into that room.

The prisoner made no defence, but was committed for trial al
he next Clerkenwell sessions.

SOUTHWARK-(THIS DAY.)

William Thane and Christopher Slight were charged with being
drunk and creating a disturbance.
It appeared that the defendants were engaged during the day at
the Southwark election, and that they afterwards retired to the
Ship at Stone's-end, and, with Mr. Pitcher's committee, drank
rather deeply. After quitting the house between twelve and one
o'clock, when they got into the street they commenedd blowing a
horn, and shouting in such a manner as to disturb the inhabitants.
When taken into custody Thane was very violent, and struck the
policeman, when they were taken into custody.
Slight, in defence, said he was a medical student, and admitted
that he was induced to take too much liquor owing to the election.
The other defendant said that he was sorry for what had happened,
but he thought there was no harm in blowing the horn, as he had
been permitted to do so all day.
Mr. Thrum. fined Thane 10s., and the other defendant 55., for
being drunk.

MARKET NEWS --(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY,
The arrivals of English Wheat fresh no since Monday
coastwise, have been moderately good. By land-carriage,
and sample, however, they have proved limited. On the
whole, the stands were fairly supplied, yet the demand arising
from the attendance of buyers, being tolerably numerous, was
steady, and previous rates were supportedin every instance. We
had very few samples of fine Foreign Wheat on show. Selected
qualities were in steady request at full prices. In other kinds,
exceedingly little was doing. From abroad scarcely any
orders have been received this week for the purchase of corn
under lock; hence the demand ruled inactive, at about late
rates. The best Grinding Barley was in fair request, but all
other kinds were a slow inquiry. In Malt, very little was
doing, at late rates. Foreign Oats were a slow sale, and
rather cheaper. In English and Irish a fair business was
doing. Beans, Peas, and Flour were quite as dear.

lIOP INTE GLIGENCE.—The accounts from the hop
districts are generally unfavourable,tle hops being small and
few, and the picking thus rendered dilatory
land troublesome.
The principal exception to the un.avourab e reports is the
district of Rye, in which the average weight of the hops is
represented_ to be good. In all quarters there are complaints
of the scarcity of hands, and many hops, it is thought, will
not be picked owing to the want of pickers.

SHOW.

On Friday last a grand dinner took place at Waltham, on
occasion of the annual exhibition of stock and implements of
the Waltham Agricultural Association, of which his Grace
the Duke of Rutland is the president. The show of stock
and implements was very good ; but for so large an agricul-
tural district, was not equal to the expectation of many of the
visitors.

The dinner was presided over by the Duke of Rutland, who,
in the course of oo e of his speeches, said that when the land
produced as much corn as was required for home consump •
tion he would give up the corn-laws.

NORFOLK AGRICULTURAL
REPORT.

Hitherto the harvesting of grain has proceeded with all
due expedition, and three weeks of uninterrupted weather
have done much towardssecuring the crops in admirable con-
dition, although a small portion of the wheat crop is still iu
the fields, together with a somewhat considerable quantity of
barley. The former may be said to have been well got in,
since the only exception is •that which has arisen from the
impetuosity of the farmers themselves in not allowng the first
cut wheats to remain in the fields a sufficient time to dis-
charge the sap and harden the grain before they were car-
ried to the rick, the consequence of which was that the
bulk became heated sufficiently to injure the sample.
With respect , to the latter, the weather at this
moment appears to be threatening and inauspicious,
nevertheless it must be admitted that a moderate
quantity of rain would be of infinite service toward facili-
tating the separation of the corn from the straw,
if not in improving the sample also. The prevelant
opinion appears to be that the barley crop is defective in qua-
lity, and upon some of the lusty lands in the eastern division
of the county, in quantity also. Turnips have suffered very
materially from the want of moisture; and on all but lands
of the very first-rate qualities the plants exhibit a very un-
promising appearance; in short, the bulk of the whole crop
may now be estimated at one-third less than an average
produce. The plant of mange! wurzel is more perfect and
unfailing. Since the introduction of potatoes into England
(1650), no instance stands upon record of their having been
attacked by a disease similar to that which is now prevalent.
It appears evident that the roots cannot be preserved for any
length of time, and it may be questionable if a sufficient
number can be saved for the purpose of seeding the land at
the forthcoming spring ; the growers seem desirous of making
them available fur present purposes, as cattle food.—Norfolk
Chronicle.

Si AYES IN BRAZLL

The following sketch of the treatment of slaves in
Brazil is given in a recent communication from Rio:—
The continuance of the slave trade in Brazil, which no
appeal on the part of England has hitherto been strong
enough to prevent, increases the evils of that inhuman
traffic to a frightful extent. The facility of obtaining
new slaves renders the slave-owners careless and cruel
to those in their possession. In the absence of moral
feeling, and without the least dread of public justice,
human life is trifled with in a manner dreadful to relate.
Not long since a Brazilian slave-owner beat a slave so
unmercifully that the poor wretch died upon the spot.
Ile was forthwith buried in the garden where the murder
was committed, and the affair passed off as a matter of
course. Similar murders are of constant occurrence.
The law affords the slave no certain protection.
The slave market at Rio is in the Rua de Vallonges
where the retail dealers keep shops, and deal out human
beings to their customers with as much insensibility
and sang
,froid as they would British goods. No
one who has suffered pain of witnessing it can
forget the scene. To describe it, and read of
it, would be heart-sickening. Negro amelioration
is not a subject, as may be supposed, which has en-
gaged the attention of the Government or individuals of
Brazil ; yet it is fair to state that they teach their slaves
to say a prayer or two, and confess occasio tally to a
priest. On plantations prayers are generally repeated
in public before they commence their labours at sunrise,
and when they retire at sunset. All the happiness of
these poor unfortunate creatures is founded upon igno-
rance and degrading insensibility. Unlimited authority
is possessed by masters over their slaves, and their con-
dition is better or worse, according to the temper or dis-
position of individuals. The interest of the master in
the services of his slave is almost the only hold which he
has upon him for good usage. The general subject
of slavery has of late been so often viewed under all its
bearings, usque ad nauseam, that reconsideration seems
quite unnecessary ; and it is a lamentable fact that
since the colonisation of Brazil by the Portuguese,
slavery has been maintained with incessant activity. The
Spaniards in South America, in the establishment of
their independence, did not suffer negro slavery to con-
tinue. In that respect they have shown themselves supe-
rior to the Government and public characters in Brazil.
