William thy, a corporal in the Royal Marines,
doing duty at Deptford, was brought up and placed at
the bnr for re-examination on the charge of having
wilfully stabbed with his bayonet a young man named
John Muggeridge, who, in consequeoce of the injury
inficted upon him, has been under surgical treatment,
and in all probability will be deprived of the sight of one
of his eyes,
The plaintiff Muggeridge, who was accommodated

was going home, and saw the prisoner pull out his
bayonet to stab a young female whom he was following,
but she got away from him, and he put his bayonet again
into its proper place. I said to the girl why don't you
get from him and go home, and he then drew his bayonet
which he thrust into my eye. I have been in the hospital
ever since.
Elizabeth Dolby, a servant out of place, said the pri-
soner came up and began talking to a young friend of
mine. They were in conversation about five minutes to-
gether, and I told her to leave him. Prisoner asked me
what I had to do with either him or her, and he gave me
a blow. I gave him another, when he took out his
bayonet twice and attempted to stab me with it, but I
stepped back and very fortunately escaped being injured.
On Muggeridge coming up and asking what was the
matter, I saw the prisoner run the bayonet into his
( Muggeridge's) eye. The latter had previously observed
to him that if he could get him up stairs he would throw
him out of window.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HO USE.
Yesterday Mr. Clarkson, after having remained in
.he justice-room for a considerable time, addressed the
Lord Mayor upon the subject of a letter which appeared
in the Times newspaper as an advertisement, imputing
to the captain and some of the crew of the Caroline, a
vessel belonging to the Imaum of Muscat, which arrived
with presents from his Highness to the Queen, the crime
of murder. An application had, the Learned Counsel
understood, been made on the preceding day to the sit-
ting magistrate, for the purpose of causing an investiga-
tion into a charge against Sir George Stephen, for hav-
ing published the libel, under the 6th and 7th Victoria,
cap. 96, sect. 5, entitled, " An Act to amend the law re-
srecting defamatory words and libel," and enacting,
" That if any person shall maliciously publish any de-
fematory libel, any such person being convicted thereof
shall be liable to fine or imprisonment, or both, as the
Court may award, such imprisonment not to exceed the
term of one year." This letter was a report of a reite-
rated charge of murder, represented at the Thames
Police-office by Sir George Stephen to have been com-
mitted upon one Abdallah. In answer to the intimation
that the accusation of having caused to be published the
defamatory libel, Sir George Stephen stated, that as it
was his intention to apply to the judges for a writ of
habeas corpus to bring up .the crew before their Lord-
ships, the case was necessarily no longer under the j uris-
diction of the magistrate, and declined to give his
attendance. He (Mr. Clarkson) would not enter into
the particulars of the case further than was necessary
to make it intelligible. The Lord Mayor was aware
that Sir George Stephen made a charge to the sifect that
murder was committed on board the Caroline upon one
of the slaves, and that the crew, ,vhich consisted of slaves,
were on board that vessel in the docks. The agents
for the Imaum of Muscat, whose authority as a sovereign
was recognised in this country, with which his High-
ness was on terms of perfect amity, being most
anxious to ascertain whether there was any
foundation for so serious a charge, instituted
an inquiry, from which it appeared that there was no
ground whatever for the statement ; that there were no
slaves on board the vessel ; that no, murder had been
committed ; that no death, either by design or accident,
had occurred. The denial of the statement was made
and established before Mr. Broderip, at the Thames
Police- office, in the absence of Sir George Stephen, who
failed to keep his appointment before the magistrate.
Nut content with having insisted subsequently upon the
correctness of the accusation, Sir George Stephen pub-
lished in the Times newspaper, as an advertisement, the
letter alluded to, which contained, amongst other
matter, the following statement :—" About two
days' sail from the Island of Ascension, Abdal-
lah, the slave who was killed, was engaged on
some duty which the boatswain reproved him for doing
negligently, threatening, at the same time, to give him
the rope's-end. Abdallah answered insolently, and the
boatswain struck him, with his fist, in the face. Ab-
dallah threatened to return the blow, and the boatswain
then immediately went aft and reported him to the cap-
tain. The captain called three of his own slaves, and
directed one of them to throw the man down and sit
upon his Heck, while the other two slaves were ordered to
shampoo' him, a process, as 1 understand, often made
subservient to severe punishment. The slaves kneaded
the poor creature with their knees and elbows for ten
minutes. He was then released, and with great diffi-
culty crawled to his berth. Within an hour my in-
formant found him throwing up blood in considerable
quantities, and though, previously to the operation, he
had been in perfect health, and a good sailor, he died
within twenty-five hours, and within two hours his body
was thrown overboard." Now he (Mr. Clarkson) had
the persons, to whom the statement just read referred,
prepared to come forward and declare, upon oath, that
the whole of it was an untruth, He did not mean to
attribute a knowledge that it was a false statement to
Sir George Stephen, but he meant to assert
that there was not an atom of foundation for
the story itself. It was thought right, by the agents of
the gentleman who represented the Imaum of Muscat, to
bring forward the crew of the Caroline, who were thus
designated slaves and murderers, to make their deposi-
tions upon oath before the magistrate, in denial of the
whole of the circumstances described in Sir George
Stephen's letter, and to proceed, under the statute of
Victoria just quoted from. Sir George Stephen, had,
as was before stated, declined to attend before his Lord-
ship, and intimated his intention to apply to a court of
the. fulrthhaetr course Sir George Stephen had adopted, and

there was ground for seeking a statement in conteadips

but the fact was, Mr. Benolis came to him, on his arrival
at Rugby, end requested, as a particular favour, that he
might not be called as a witness, if it could possibly be
avoided ; and as there was quite sufficient evidence
against the prisoner without including Benolis's, he
complied with that person's wish, hut what made him
ask so earnestly his moaning, for what, on Wednesday
he was so desirous to be excused from, he must leave to
Mr. B.'s very peculiar mind to reconcile himself. As
to the articles spoken of, there could be no question
that they were Mr. B.'s property, and they would be
given to him after the prisoner had taken his trial.
Prisoner, upon being called to make his defence, said
that when he entered upon his late situation, he was told
that he would receive 7s. per week at first, but that it
soon be raised to 103. 0r:125., and that Mr. Ashley
would make it up 1/.; some time, however, elapsed, and
Ids wages still remained the same; he made repeated ap-
plications upon the subject to Mr. Ashley, who said he
would write to Mr. Churchill, but nothing resulted from
this, and all that he had was 7s. per week. He was fre-
quently left in the Post office by himself, and he had
every opportunity to steal letters without being detected;
but, notwithstanding all that had been said about him,
he was not guilty of half that was laid to his charge;
and if others in the Post-office had been searched as sud-
denly and closely as he was, there would have been as
:many letters and as much property traced to their pos-
session as there had been to his; and when Mr. Peacock
first came down, he told prisoner that " all the parties
connected with the Post-office would be prosecuted."
The COURT—And so they will, if there is any evidence
against them.
Prisoner—Oh, well, that's all right! because I do not
see why I should go to Coventry alone, when others are
as bad as myself.
Prisoner was then folly committed, on all the charges,
to take his trial at the ensuing assizes at Coventry.
There seems to have been throughout the whole ma-
nagement of the Post-office a:want of care exhibited that
was censurable in the highest degree. Shortly after the
appointment of the late postmaster, who was generally
respected, he was seized with an illness that incapacitated
him from attending to the management himself, and it
was consequently left to subordinates. It appears most
extraordinary that suspicion was not excited against the
prisoner before, inasmuch as complaints have been made
of the non-arrival of cash and other letters and news-
papers almost ever since the appointment of the prisoner,
whilst he was in the habit of spending 3s. or 4s. a day in
public-houses, and he and his wife dressed in as respect-
able a style as any tradespeople, and yet in the face of
this it was known that he only received 7s. per week.

but rather more business was done, in consequence of holders
having submitted to a further decline of fully 6d per cwt.

TEA.—The market is steady.

Inspector Otway, A division, stated that on the night
of the 2.sth November last, the portmanteau of the Rev.
Mr. Lewis, of Cardigan, who had been stopping at the
Trafalgar Hotel, and who had received the notes in
question the same day at the Bank, was opens(' with a
false key, and a 501. note, five 5/. notes, and ten 101.
notes were stolen, a portion of which were traced to the
two first prisoners. It would also be proved that the
two last prisoners had changed another portion of the
notes in different parts of town, in the purchase of
goods, having taken the precaution to write false names
and addresses on each, to prevent detection.
Robert Talbot, principal waiter at the Trafalgar, being
sworn, said that on Sunday last, seeing his waiter, Lake,
very much depressed in spirits, and unable to go through
his work, having previously heard of the robbery in
which he suspected he was concerned, ho questioned
him upon the subject, saying, " George, the fact is you
are concerned in the robbery, I suspect, and you may as
well tell everything you know about it," when he re-
plied, " I was drawn into it by our Charley (meaning
Bowen, his fellow-servant, and at that time in custody).
I took the money from the portmanteau by means of a
false key to pick the lock, which was procured.by him.
The money consisted of a roll of notes, which he told me
consisted of about 701., and after some conversation I
proposed that he should bring it to you, and tell you
that we found it on the mat at the door ; but he ob
jected to any such thing, but at the same time asking me
if I had any silver about me to pay for the hire of a cab,
as he would take the money over to a friend at the Ade-
laide lintel, London-bridge, which he did about eight
o'clock that evening, und did not return during that night."
The money, he added, was taken from the pertnianteau of
the Rev. Mr. Lewis, who was then stopping at the house ;
and whet, Bowen returned the next morning he said that
he had given the money to Wood at the Adelaide Hotel,
but that he should write to him to hand it over to Robert
Snow, who would get hard cash for it, but he subse-
quently told Lake that Snow had run away with the
money. The prisoner went on to say, " I then threat-
ened to confess all unless I got part of the money, but
Bowen told me that Wood had got 81., which you can
have, and I'll give you my I 0 U for a little more, upon
hearing which I went on the 7th to the Adelaide Hotel,
where I saw Wood, to whom . I said, I plainly see you
hare led me into this, and now you are going to divide
the money without giving me any part of it, and as my
mind is very much troubled about the matter, I'll con-
fess all I know about it, but Wood desired that I would
say nothing about it but to little Jem, the porter, who
was quite safe:"
Mr. HALL inquired if the witness had any conversa-
tion with any of the other prisoners upon the subject ?
Witness replied that about ten o'clock on Sunday morn-
ing, when Inspector Otway and others called to make
inquiries, the prisoner Bowen not being then in custody
he seemed very much interested about their business ;
and, upon witness expressing ignorance upon the subject,
he seemed to make light of it, saying that he supposed
that something was up.
Mr. James Barrack, proprietor of the Trafalgar Ho•
tel and the lini9 Hotel, in Cockspur•street, said that
Bowen had been in his service for six weeks, and Lake
about nine months, as waiters, and continued so until
they were apprehended, witness happening to be unwell
about the time the robbery was committed, and, upon
Bowen being refused leave of absence by the head
waiter, he said he would take French leave, and left the
house.

Charles iVi(cox and Henry sinnons, two drivers on the
works of the Richmond Railway, were re-examined
upon a charge of having unlawfully intimidated one
William Taylor, also a driver in the same employ, and
caused him to depart from the said employment.
Mr. Henry Knill, the contractor, attended to conduct
the
case. William
Taylor, of Watford-heath, stated that he
was a labourer employed on the Richmond Railway,
the prisoners were also employed in the same capacity.
On Thursday morning last witness had commenced work,
when the prisoner Simmons came to him, ar.d said it
• would serve him right if he gave him a punch of the
head for not doing the same as the others, who had
struck the night before, about washing the horses' legs.
The prisoner Wilcox said nothing to him.
Janus Lackingon Rice stated he was foreman to Mr.
Henry Knill. On Wednesday evening last he heard that
the prisoner:and others had refused to wash the horses' legs
and acipiainted Mr. Knill with the fact. They did wash,
the horses' legs that night, but said that they would not
get washed next morning. The next morning Taylor had
his horses ready tackled for work, when Simmons said,
" You -, I should like to give you a whopping."
Witness asked Taylor if he had been threatened, and
he said, "I am afraid to go to work." He also said, in
the presence of Mr. Knill, that if he went to work he
should be leathered. The prisoner Wilcox stood in the
stable calling the men together, and said, " Now, boys,
what
shall
morning
shall we wash the horses' legs to-night
er inthe
The witness Taylor, on being recalled, admitted that
he had told Mr. Knill that he was afraid to go to work.
Police-constable Hook, 312 V, gave evidence corro-
borative of the witness Rice.
Mr. John 161111, brother of the contractor, proved
that on Wednesday evening last, be was informed that
there was a strike among the drivers. Ile went to the
stable and asked Wilcox what was the matter, and he
said they had come to the determination of not wash-
ing the horses' legs. He appeared to take an active
part, and the whole of the meta seemed to be governed
by him.
Mr. William Porter, the sub-contractor, said that on
Thursday morning he was ready and waiting for the
horses and their drivers, and in consequence of their not
coming the navigators could not work.
Tile prisoners, in explanation of the strike, said they
had been required to do what they had never been asked
to do before, and that was, after a hard day's work, to
wash the legs of the horses in buckets. They had
always been accustomed to take them to a pond or river,
and as they did not like this extra labour, they had all

SUGAR.—To-day British Plantation Sugar was purchased
with caution for all purposes, although there were even
sellers rather under the reduced rates of Friday ; the total
quantity disposed of amounted to only 350 hhds and trcs,
including 100 hhds and 8 trcs of Barbadoes at public sale,
which went off at a decline on the last auction of 6d, fine
yellow selling at 54s to 555, good 5.1 s 6d to 535, middling 51s
to 525, and low middling at 50s per cwt. On Tuesday 2,400
bags of Bengal will be'offered at auction.
REFINED.—To-day refined goods were purchased with
caution by the home trade, brown grocery at 635, and
standard lumps at 64s to 64s 6d per cwt. In bonded Crushed
Sugar little business has been done, and there are sellers of
first quality at 33s 6d per cwt.
MAURITIUS.—HoIders have refrained from offering any at
auction, but 2,500 bags are declared fur Thursday. There
has been little desire manifested to purchase any description
by private treaty, although there are sellers upon lower
terms.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon there was no public sale of
Bengal, and little business was transacted privately, although
there were sellers of all kinds upon rather lower terms.
FORElGN.—Although there are sellers of brown Brasil at
further reduced rates, still there are few purchasers to be
met With, and the only business done since last Tuesday has
been that of 80 chests of Bahia at 21s per cwt for good
quality, being a decline on former rates of is., the value of
low is 19s to 19s 6d. White is heavy of sale, and may be had
upon lower terms. Yellow Havannah has been purchased
with much caution. White is heavy of disposal. The busi-
ness transacted in all other kinds of Foreign has been ex-
tremely limited, and Porto Rico and Cuba Muscovado may
be purchased at 21s to 24s per cwt. The stock of Foreign
has been further increased ; indeed arrivals are proving larger
than were expected.
111oLAssEs.—Although there are sellers of West India upon
rather lower terms, still few buyers are to be met with, and
19s to 23s per cwt is the value of low to fine quality ; the
stock is still much less than it was last year. Bengal Treacle
is less wanted, and former rates are not to be obtained.
COCOA.—The market for Foreign has a dull appearance,
and prices have a downward tendency: at auction 907 bags
of Para have been offered; the sound was taken in at 34s
for good dark greyish red, and first class sea damaged 30s;
British Plantation has been purchased with caution, and
prices are drooping, red selling privately at 38s to 445, and t
grey at 36s to 425.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
NEW COURT.
(Before the COMMON SERGEANT.)
Alfred _Hayward, James (Missal, and Charles Roger-
son, all young men about seventeen years of age, were
indicted for stealing tobacco and a jar containing it from
the shop of Benjamin Fox, Victoria-street. The pri-
soners, on the evening of the Gth December, last were
seen at the window of Fox„where the tobacco was, and
where the prosecutor missed it a short time after. The
three when they had got possession of the jar made off
with all speed up the street, but suspecting they were
pursued, and being met by one of the witnesses, they
dropped the jar on the spot, where it was afterwards
found by the policeman.
Butter, a constable, found Rogerson that evening in a
pubic-house of a suspicious character, smoking with
thirty other men.
They were found Guilty by the jury, and
The COMMON SERGEANT sentenced Hayward and
Chissell to three months' hard labour and imprisonment
in the House of Correction ; and Rogerson,- who had
been convicted on a former indictment, to seven years'
transportation.
John Ainsworlh and John Hickman, both labourers,
were indicted for stealing 1121bs. of lead from the house
of Charles Wm. Lanner, Esq., West Ham, Essex.
Thomas Morrison, constable at West Ham, in conse-
quence of instructions he received from Inspector Harri-
son, went on the 22d Novemberle

of the prisoner Ainsworth.
28th of the same month, on which day he saw Ainsworth
and Hickman come out of the house in company.
The constable followed them to the coal-yard, near
West Ham Abbey, and there saw them get up
on a house belonging to the prosecutor, and com-
mence stripping off the lead. This done, they throw
it down, and having descended themselves from the roof,
carried the lead in question to the house of Ainsworth.
Morrison returned in company with four other officers,
two of whom he placed at the back of the premises, and
with two bee himself went in at the front door. The pri-
soners by this time were in the back yard, and when
they saw the constables, they seized up the lead and
threw it into a ditch, where the policemen found it. In
ifickman's house, when searched, were found wheel-
barrows, bricks, and sueh articles as are used by railway
contra.ctors.

Messrs. Morison have much pleasure in publishing the fol-
lowing letter, with the writer's permission. Lady Sophia
Grey has been following the hygeian treatment for the last
ten tears, and therefore her opinion must be admitted to be
highly valuable in matter of such vast importance. Her
ladyship's letter is as follows :
" Sandiway, near Northwich, Cheshire,
Dec. 11, 1845.
" Gentlemen,—This has been such a dreadful sickly year
amongst the poor, that the demand fur your most excellent
pills has been very great, and I shall, therefore, be very
thankful for the usual supply of them. I take this oppor-
tuni' of inclosing the 51, for 1846, towards the Exeter
Hygeian Dispensary ; I think nothing can be more satis-
factory than the progress that your medicine snakes, and
wishing it may in time gain a complete victory.—l remain,
Gentlemen, your sincerely obliged.

agreed to leave the work.
Wilcox said he had worked for Grissell and Peto, and
they never required it.
Mr. Knill said ho had been fourteen or fifteen years at
railway work, and the men never attempted to raise the
question us to what they would or would not do. He
paid the drivers better than the other labourers—they
had 18s. per week. He would not have proceeded so fur
against the prisoners, but that they induced the others
to leave their work.
Summers observed, all that he said to Taylor was,
" You want a punch of the head." He had agreed the
night before not to work.
Mr. CLINE said there were two questions in this case
to be decided. The first was, whether the prisoners
were at liberty to cease working at the close of any
particular day; he apprehended that if they were not
satisfied with their wages they were at liberty to do so,
but that was no reason that they should attempt to deter
others from continuing in the employment. With re-
spectthathetohWilcox,d 'beenil htehecocauuldse of
notgefitntding others to leavewords that would
amount to absolute threats,
although it seemed to him
good wages. He should discharge him. With respect
to the prisoner Simmons, there was sufficient proof, upon
the evidence of the foreman and policeman, th.:t he diil
make use of threats. The prisoner was at liberty to go
4nd work where he liked, but he was not to intimidate
others, and must be taught the consequences. As this

The Earl of Albeinarle, who is passing the winter

Vision and advanced age.
THE QUEEN OF DENMARK, EDITED DT MRS.
GORE, will probably form one of the most popular novels of
the day. A certain quaint simplicity of s:vle imparts a
double charm to the gorgeous details of royal life and courtly
intrigue—apparently chronicled by a contemporary—so vivid
and life-like are the incidents and descriptions. The desti •
nies of the unfortunate Caroline Matilda (sister of George
III.) have found a faithful and judicious historian.

Inspector Otway said, that uftpr he apprehended
Bowen, and told him that the prisoner Lake had made a
confession, he said that Lake had stolen the money,
amounting to 701., and if there was more he must hare
kept it. The prisoner Bates was subsequently taken
into custody, and being told the nature of the charge
he said he was not aware when he had changed the notes
that they bad been stolen, and that he had received
them Irons his friend Jack, meaning Dancock, who was
also apprehended. They both bad new hats, which
were purchased in the New-cut with a portion of the
property. The other notes were traced to different
parts of town.
Mr, atm, said that the evidence did not affect the
prisoners Baily and Wood, and they might be dis-
charged.
The inspector said he had reason to know that Mr.
Lewis was at present in town, and as he could bring for-
ward persons at a future day by whom the notes had
been changed, he had to apply fur a remand.
''he prisoners were accordingly ordered to be re-
manded' till Thursday next.
