A young man, named George Thomas, was brought
before Mr. Alderman Wood at Guildhall, charged with
knowingly uttering a counterfeit crown-piece at the office
of the Society for Protesting Young Females, in Iron-
monger-lane. The prisoner had called at the office,
asked for the Society's last report, tendered a counter-
feit five-shilling piece, and asked for the change. As

questing copies of their last reports, were found on him,
he was remanded in order to give time for further

expert " cricksmen" of the metropolis, was charged
with stealing a bag of money, the property of Mr. Cla-
renfold, the landlord of the Barley-mow, Northampton-
street, Bethnal-green. The prisoner had been caught
in the act of committing the robbery. The police then
informed the Magistrate that a more desperate character
could not possibly exist than the prisoner. When he first
came to the station, he refused to give his name, but he
was soon recognised, and it was ascertained that he was
wanted for several " put-up" robberies. A bunch -of
skeleton keys was found on his person, and perhaps
London itself could not produce a more experienced thief
and burglar. The prisoner was fully committed, with
an intimation that he would be brought up again. to
answer any .other charge that might be brought against
him, several other charges being expected.
A man named Brown was ordered to enter into his own
recognizances to keep the peace for twelve months at the
Marylebone Police. court for having fired a pistol at a
tree at Chalk Farm.
At Worship-street, Francis Croker was placed at the
bar before Mr. Broughton, charged with having obtained
by false pretences the sum of 155., and a gold wedding •
ring, from a young woman named Mary Judd. The
prosecutrix who -had been jilted by a young man named
Abell, had employed the plisoner who represented him-
self as an attorney, to bring an action for breach of pro-
mise of marriage against her faithless swain. The pri-
soner had asked for something on account, and she had
deposited with him the wedding-ring as a security. He
called shortly afterwards and told her he had com-
menced proceedings, and had incurred costs to the
amount of 155., on being paid which he would restore
the ring. She gave him the money, but had never had
herringon inquiry, ..she found no proceedings had
been taken. The ring had been pawned by the prisoner.
He was remanded until Wednesday.

for whom ho had worked fur fourteen years, without a
blemish to his character, prayed Mr. Broderip, the
magistrate, to substitute a fine for imprisonment, as such
an imprisonment would lead to the loss of his situation,
and total ruin ; but the Magistrate was inexorable, and

The damage sustained by the royal mail steam-packet
Tay, from striking upon the Colorados, on the afternoon

The Victoria and Albert, royal steam 3 acht, in her re-
cent cruise, has evinced very superior powers of speed,
usually going through the water at the rate of thirteen
knots, and sometimes nearly fourteen. She, however,
steers very badly, and curious to say, that on one occa-
sion, as an experiment, her helm was lashed amidships,
and at full speed, she made a complete circle in eleven
minutes ; her helm was then put hard a port or star-
board, and she went round in four minutes and a half.
It is at present an uncertainty which port her Ma-
jesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert will select
to embark for their contemplated excursion to Scotland,
but there is every reason to believe that the royal yacht
will come round from Portsmouth, and that the Queen
will go on board at Woolwich.

Council appointed to be held at three o'clock, at
Windsor Castle. The Duke of Wellington, Six' R.
Peel, and Lord Aberdeen, are remaining at the Castle.
It is expected that the speech from the Throne on
closing the session of Parliament will be sanctioned
by her Majesty at the Council.

INSOLVENT COURT.--(THIS DAY.)
Upwards of three weeks • has now elapsed since the
last sitting of this Court, and the cause lists presented a
marked evidence of the diminution of business in this
Court since Lord Brougham's new Act has come into
operation. During an equal period previous to the
passing of this Act the average number of causes was
from 150 to 160, whilst now the number of persons
seekine, liberation ander the head of town bail was only
20 ; under the head of country bail 23 names appeared ;
and there were only three adjourned cases to be beard,
making in all only 46 applicants, thus showing a falling
off of nearly two-thirds.

THE SPANISH LEGION.-IN RE CHARLES MORRIS KING.
In this case the insolvent had been an agent to the
Spanish Government to negotiate with respect to the
claims of those unfortunate soldiers who had served in
Spain during the late war under General Evans. The
greater number of the names which appeared in the
schedule were those of persons who had, by right of ser-
vitude in the Spanish army, or on account of wounds,
became enCtled to pensions.
Mr. CooKE supported the insolvant, who was oppdsed
by Mr. Thomas and Mr. Symes on behalf of the body of
the creditors.
The grounds of opposition were, that the insolvent
had in his capacity of agent, received several sums of
money from the Spanish Government, on account of the
pensions due to the various opposing creditors, and.
which moneys he appropriated to his own use.
Owing to the negotiations going on with the English
Government, respecting the demands of the officers and
soldiers of the Spanish Legion and the Spanish Govern-
ment, the case was one of great intricacy, and the coun-
sel for the insolvent havir, stated to the Court that there
were negotiations now going on between the parties and
the Government of this country, by which some arrange-
ments would be effected,
The Learned COMMISSIONER considered that under
the circumstances it would be better to adjourn the case
for a time.—The case was accordingly adjourned to the
18th inst.

IN RE SARAH CLAYWORTH.
The insolvent was in custody at the suit of the op-
posing creditor, in whose favour a verdict for damages
to the amount of 150/. had been returned against her for
defamation. The insolvent now applied to be liberated
on bail until her final hearing.
The CHIEF COMMISSIONER said, that in this case
there were obvious grounds for a remand. In all such
cases he disapproved of allowing the parties to go out
on bail, and he should accordingly reject the present
application. The insolvent, who appeared to be an aged
woman, was taken back to prison.

•
IN RE JOHN BILTON.
This was an application for bail, and one of the sureties
having described himself in the bail notice as a tobacco-
nist, upon his examination by the Court as to qualifica-
tion, acknowledged that he was also a bill discounter and
money lender.
Mr. CoMmissioner REYROLDS said it was a most er-
roneous description to call a person a tobacconist, who
follow, d the sometimes rather doubtful vocation of a bill-
discounter and money-lender, and he should therefore
reject the bail.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
(THIS DAY.)
Mrs. Elizabeth Polland, the landlady of No. 20, Lum-
ber-court, Seven-dials, was charged with obstructing
James Willis in the execution of his duty as an officer
of the County Court, Kingsgate-street, in making a dis-
tress upon the goods of William Aldridge, a lodger in the
defendant's house, for the sum of 11. 25., the amount of a
doctor's bill.
The complainant stated that he made the seizure about
seven o'clock last evening, of a Dutch clock and other
articles, in doing which he was violently obstructed by
the defendant, and the clock was rescued from him. The
defendant was in consequence given into the custody of
the police.
The defendant said rent to the amount of 21. 10s. was
owing to her by Aldridge, and she thought she had the
first claim upon the goods.
Mr. Ileanwicx then referred to the Act of Parlia-
ment, the 7th Victoria, cap. 19, intituled " An Act to
prevent obstruction to the Bailiffs of the Inferior Courts."
By section 7 it is enacted, " that if any bailiff of any such
Court shall be assaulted while in the execution of his
duly, or if any rescue shall be made or attempted of any
goods taken or levied under process of any such Court,
the person offending, on conviction before any Justice of
the Peace, shall be imprisoned with or without hard
labour for any term not exceeding three calendar months,
or shall forfeit and pay any sum not exceeding 51. with
costs, at the discretion of such Justice, and such sums in
case of non-payment, shall be levied by distress and sale
of the goods of the offender."
Mr. HARDWICK said he had no doubt the defendant
had acted under the notion of her priority of claim as
landltly, which formerly existed, and he should there-
fore discharge her, but it ought to go forth to the public
that any zecurrence of this offence would subject the
offender to very severe punishment.

CLERKENNVELL.—(THIS DAY.)
Michael Brien was charged with cutting and wound-
ing Edmund James, a young man of genteel appearance,
residing at No. 1, George's-street, King's Cross.
The complainant deposed that on the previous morn-
ing, between nine and ten o'clock, he was returning
home after a walk, when he saw the prisoner standing
with two other men at the corner of Cumming-street,
Pentonville ; when turning the corner the prisoner sud-
denly rushed upon him, knocked him down, and kicked
him on the body with great violence ; the prisoner like-
wise kicked him in the face (there were several cuts on
the young man's cheeks and forehead), he put up hi:
hand to ward off the kicks, but the prisoner kicked bin
on the arm, which was rendered pc:iv% erless. The pri,
soner swore he would murder him. A policeman for-
tunately came up, and were it not for his timely arrival
he believed the prisoner Is ould have murdered him.

A bricklayer, who chanced to be passing at the time,
swore he never saw anything more brutal that the pri-
soner's treatment of the prosecutor. Witness called the
policeman.

- It did not appear there was any reason whatever for
the prisoner's conduct.

The prisoner, who has been convicted of assaults at
this Court more than twenty times, was sentenced by
Mr. Combe to be imprisoned in the House of Correction
for one month, in default of the payment of a fine.

UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.)
Caroline Smith was charged with creating a disturb-
ance in the Victoria Theatre on the preceding night.
It appeared that on the preceding night the defend-
ant went into the gallery of the above theatre, and had
not been long there before she began to interrupt the
performance, by hissing the actors as they appeared on
the stage. Murray, the constable of the theatre, went
up to the defendant, and requested she vvould desist,
otherwise he would be compelled to put her out
of the house. The moment, however, the de-
fendant was spoken to, she commenced a
volley of abuse, declared her determination of
hissing or applauding as she liked, and, in accordance
with her avowal, began afresh to hiss, and created such
an uproar that it was found necessary to eject her from
the gallery. This however, was a feat which it was not
so easy to accomplish, as she resisted with the utmost
desperation, hitting out right and left, dealing her blows
with all the dexterity of a first-rate pugilist. At length,
however, the prisoner was carried down and lodged in
the station-house.

The defendant, a masculine woman, was fined 20s,
and in default committed.

CAPTURE OF PRETENDED POLICE OFFICERS AND
HOUSE ROBBERS.—Last week, the house of Mrs. Blun-
dell, 'No. 24, Agnes-street, York-road, Lambeth, was
robbed of twelve sovereign and a half by two men, who
represented themselves as policemen. They stated to
Mrs. Blundell that her husband was confined at Tower-
street on a charge of felony, and producing a sham search
warrant, were allowed to take away spoons, brooches,
the money above stated, &c. &c. Last night, however,
through the exertions of Inspector Evans, and Sergeants
Green and Brown, both the men were arrested, brought
before the Magistrate at Union-hall, this day, and re-
manded.

DUBLIN, SEPT. 1.••••• THE HARVEST.—The splendid
autumn weather with which we are now blessed will
crown the labours of the husbandman. In most of the
Irish counties the corn harvest is now nearly completed.
The wheat crop has turned out even more abundant than
had been expected. The only crop reported short is
oats, which, it is said, do not yield well in threshing ;
but, judging by all accounts, even this crop will be pretty
goon. Green crops are in the most promising state.
The markets are, as a matter of course, going down.
A JEWISH WEDDING AT OXFORD.—It having been
rumoured for several days previous that a wedding would
be solemnised between Mr. Nathan Jacob, a Polish Jew,
and son of the unfortunate High Priest who, with his
daughter, was burned to death in St. Ebbe's, in this city,
in March last, and Miss Hannah Wolff, a fair Jewess,
who, with her friends, has resided in Oxford for several

years, upwards of 300 respectable citizens, chiefly
females, attended to witness the imposing ceremony,
which was performed yesterday in the garden of Mr.
Kemp, mercer, of Queen-street, by the Rev. Dr. Aaron
Levi, of London. Immediately on the introduction of
the fair bride, the ceremony commenced, and although
the chaunting and service were in the Hebrew language,
the company were most attentive. Amongst them we
observed the lady of the Professor of Geology and family;
Mrs. Hall, widow of the late Dr. Hall, Master of Pem-
broke College, and family ; Mr. T. R. Fisher, Mrs. Hob-
dell, &c. This being the first Jewish wedding that has
ever taken place in Oxford, it created an unusual degree
of interest.—Bumbury Guardian.
TILE NEW JURY LISTS.—On Sunday the printed
new jury lists for the ensuing year of the names of per-
sons residing in the different parishes and places in the
City of London, Westminster, and the metropolitan bo-
roughs

ye2.rs of age or upwards.
BRISTOL AND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY.—Goods and
cattle will be conveyed by the Bristol and Gloucester

add largely to the Company's receipts. Arrangements,
it is stated, have been entered into with the Birmingham

panies whose lines are in connexion with Birmingham,
which will greatly facilitate the goods' traffic from Bris-
ol to the Nerth.—Railway Record.
