SIR. 11. POTTINGER.

On Monday the freedom of the city of Edinburgh was
,•onferred upon Sir henry Pottinger.
After the Lono PrzovosT had addressed the gallant officer
in appropriate terms—
Sir H. PorriNoan said—l assure you I feel quite unable
to express the high sense I entertain of the honour which I
receive by your enrolling me among the citizens of Edin-
burgh. I trust I need not assure you that I went out to
China with a full determination to act as I did at the moment

of victory. I had long made up my mind to feel that the
people of China were like ourselves, and like people in all
other parts of the world, open to kindness, good-will, and
persuasion.—(Loud applause.) Upon this p inciple I acted
throughout all my proceedings with China up to the last
hour. It is very gratifying !Or me to find that I have not
only been successful in a►.l that was left me to do by my
own Government, but 1 believe I may say, without as-
suming too much, that 1 have left a very good impression
among the Chinese, and that that impression ►s not worn out
As an instance of which I may mention, that within tha last
fortnight or three weeks I have had letters from China, in
which I am led to believe that everything referring to me is
the standard by which the Chinese Government wish to con•
duct themselves.—( Applause.) As a further proof of the
good feeling and kind recollect►on that obtains there, I learn
that Peening:, the Chief Commissioner, has sent me his pic-
ture, which is now on its way to England. I me►►tion these
as proofs that what I did has not been forgotten. lam most
happy to find that all my proceedings in China have suc-
ceeded so well, and that they have been honoured with you
approbation. I need not say more than express my thanks
for the honour you have done me. On all occasions I shall
recollect this event as one of the happiest in my -life.—
(A pplause.)
Sir Henry then shook hands with the members of the town
council present, and withdrew amidst the repeated applause
of those present.—Scotsman.

SHOOTING EXTRAORDINARY.

THE LADY AM) HER FIVE CATS.—Yesterday, Frederick
Banks, of New-cross, Deptford, master butcher, appealed
before Mr. Grove, at the Greenwich Police- court, to answer
a summons at the instance of a lady named Comfort Corne-
lius, residing at the same place, for wilfully shooting five
favourite cats, her property. . . .

. . .
'The complainant, who was most fashionably attired in
deep mourning, deposed that the defendant had shoe all her
cats. On the 29th of March he killed three of her cats •, he
shot them with a pistol. Witness went to the defendant's
house, and asked him why he had acted in such a-diagrace-
ful way towards her—the poor animals had never done him
any harm. The defendant did not deny the cruelty he bad
practised, but at once admitted it, and in the rudest possible
manner told her that she should "teach her cats to.- keep
better company." The defendant shot another of her cats on
tie 29th, and one more on the 30th. She heard the tire of
the gun or pistol at her back-door, and afterwards heard de-
fendant's door shut to; and lastly he shot another on the let
of April, the poor creature was on the top of her wash-house.
She went again to the defendant, who behaved as before, and
asked (after acknowledging that he had destroyed the
ill-
fated animals), how many more she had to dispose ot• The
defendant had killed one of her neighbour's cats shortly be-
fore coming to answer complainant. lie used a pistol for
the purpose, and the wounds inflicted she could put bar
fingers into.
Mr. Grove asked the complainant what value she set upon
her cats? _ _ .

Mrs. Comfort Cornelius said she would not have lost them
for a sovereign a piece. She saw the defendant on the Ist of
April with the pistol in his band.
The defendant denied that he had used a pistol. He ad-
mitted having told the lady that he had killed the cats; but
that was no reason why lie should have done so. The com-
plainant came in a flame, and was so much excited • and she
could not be surprised at it if sob as the cats had annoyed
him very much.

A feinAle witness, a neighbour, deposed, that she had

. . .
heard Mr. Banks say that he had shot the cats on the Ist of
April, and anotherthe day previous.
The defendant said he was annoyed by five cats from one

,ouse, and was not that a seriousnuisance ?

Mr. Grove told the defendant he was convicted on his own
confession ; he should, therefore, in the present instance,
fine him 55., and 2s. costs ; and, in default, commit him for one
week to the county gaol.
The money was paid immediately, and the parties retired,
apparently by no means pleased with the result.

The arrival of slaughtered Meat up to these markets,
during the pas.tweek, have been small, the time of year con-
sidered, though of full average quality. The supplies killed
in the metropolis have been by no means large, I.ence the
general demand is in a very healthy state. In some in-
stances, the primest meat has produced more money—the
value of the middling and inferior kinds being well sup-
ported. Very little foreign meat has been offerivg.

SHEFFIELD, BUXTON, LEEK, POT-
TERIES, AND CREWE RAILWAY.
The Provisional Committee of the Great Grimsby, Sheffield, the
Potteries, and Grand Junction Railway, having expressed a desire to
consolidate with the Sheffield, Buxton, Leek, Potteries, and Crewe
Railway Company, the Provisional Directors of the latter appointed
a deputation to confer with a deputation from the former at Man-
chester, on Friday, the 24th inst., when, after the most mature
deliberation, the Provisional Directors of the Sheffield, Buxton, Leek,
Potteries, and Crewe Railway Company, although anxious to avoid
an unnecessary Parliamentary contest, were convinced it would be
injurious to the interests of their subscribers, and without any public
advantage, to identify themselves with a rival line from Sheffield to
the Staffordshire Potteries, in opposition to those which have been
so long before the public for supplying railway communication be
tween Sheffield and Buxton, viz., the Manchester, Buxton, Matlock,
and Midland, and Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland Junction
Railways.

They, therefore, feel that their only course, consistnit with a due
regard to the interests above named, is to preserve the integrity of
their project from Buxton to Stoke-upon-Trent and Congleton,
uniting at those places with the North Staffordshire Railway.
