of Commons will feel it his duty to come ferntrd with
some motion which z,hall have the effect of subjecting

he conduct of Governor FITZROY to the investigation,

not of a friendly Commission from the Colonial-office,
but of an impartial Parliamentary Committee, without
either bias or inducement to personal favour for, or pre-

possessions against, that functionary, or the two officers,
Lieutenant PHILPorTS and Lieutenant BARCLAY, whose
spirit and sagacity stand so seriously impugned in this
matter. We will not trust ourselves to dwell on the
details which are comprised in the narrative before
.hat which, if truly recorded, must be de-
signated the disgraceful pusillanimity, the still more
cowardly destructions of officers holding her MAJESTY'S
commission—their want of firmness, their deficiency of
judgment, their lack of resolution, the confusion of their
counsels, the feebleness and absurdity of their acts, the
abandonment of their own duties, and
.the betrayal of

their country's honour. We say, of these distressing
charges, " if truly recorded"—but we are compelled to
add that we have strong misgivings—they will prove.
for the most part, but too well founded. For we
cannot but attach great significancy to the species
of confirmation supplied by the event of these
unhappy operations. What has that been ? Shortly
this--the triumphant success of HEKI, the native
leader in all the attacks upon our authority—the twice-
repeated hauling down of our flag—the storming of a
fortified blockhouse which we had occupied ; the ex-
pulsion of a body of our soldiers and sailors from a hill
position, and the utter destruction of the town of
Karakareika itself, and the abandonment of that settle-
ment. Whether the burning of the town was the act of
the warlike Aborigines, or a Smolensko-like coup d'etat
on a miniature scale, at the instigation of the officers who
had so greatly distinguished themselves in the defence
of the post, or of the intelligent Governor himself,
is not, perhaps, clearly ascertained. What is perfectly
clear and indisputably certain is —that poor
Captain ROBERTSON nobly performed all the duties of
an intrepid British officer. We lament to find that he
was mot severely wounded, and that the gallant party
whom he led on were also severe sufferers in the unequal
conflict they had to sustain. But the transactions in
New Zealand offer other matter for anxious reflection,
and other aspects of high moral interest.
Is it not a curious coincidence that in the same seas,
and at nearly the same moment, the national dignity
bath of France and of England should have received
some signal affronts from semi-barbarous races
of a Malayan origin ? That things should have
gone no better in Otaheite and the Marquesas
for the French than they seem to have gone in New
Zealand for the English? Is there not a strong prima
facie ground laid for calling to account the French
Minister for Colonies, and the colonial government of
Lord STANLEY? Or are we to imagine that there is
some potential principle of disorganisation which
affects the mental and bodily energies of European
functionaries established in the islands of the
Pacific and the Southern Oceans ? This last
would be, indeed, the most unphilosophical of conclu-
sions on any mere abstract reasoning. But it is dis-
proved by the practical fact that European civilians
rather develop, in those latitudes, capacities and energy
which could not have been reasonably expected from
them, than fall short of whatever ability and vigour the
exigencies of their new position may demand from them.
This fact seems to have been strongly manifested

in the case of Mr. HECTOR, a solicitor, whose
coolness, activity, and sound judgment in the Karaka-
reika affair, working the guns of the blockhouse, di-
recting the fire of his men, and personally communica-
ting, amidst a shower of balls from the enemy, with the
stockade below him—form so heroic a contrast to the
apathy or something worse, the blundering or something
more, of Lieutenants PUILPOTTS and BARCLAY, and
the police magistrate. But what shall we say
of the incitement under which HEKI himself acted,
not a Pagan chief, wedded to the stupid and ferocious
idolatry of his country, but a Christian missionary con-
vert? This is one of the most curious, and perhaps the
most important, aspects of the case. His fanaticism was
fired, not against the English because they had settled
in the land of his birth—for he is fond of our countrymen,
and even in the late hostilities manifested a strong de-
sire to protect those among them whom he reckoned as his
personal friends—but it was fired by the erection of a flag-
staff and the hoisting of our flag. By one of those
unhappy interpretations of events and actions re-
corded in the Old Testament, which led not a few
into the commission of many sanguinary atrocities,
founded on the types of Israelitish tradition, HEKI
saw in the symbol and the ceremony some intimated
resemblance to the bondage and degradation of the
Jews of antiquity. How many valuable lives have
been sacrificed to this delusion ?

In another part of the paper will be found four le
ters signed " WINCHILSEA and NOTTINGHAM," all end
ing with these words :—" Regarding as I do the conduct
of her MAJESTY'S Ministers, in the late dismissal of Mr.
WATSON, to be of a most arbitrary and unjust character,
I cannot subject myself to a similar treatment in the
course which I may deem it my duty to pursue in advo-
cating those great Protestant principles which are, in
my estimation, beyond all earthly value." The Noble
Earl has acted wisely. He is a high.spirited man
rather obstinate in his political and religious principles,
and as he seems to have every disposition to imitate the
Orange magistrate he has resolved in time that the
Conservative Ministry shall not have the satisfaction of
treating him in the same manner. He has washed his
hands of PEEL and Co., and now comes forth
unshackled as the great champion of Protestant principles.
Why did he not, however, with his usual honesty, de-
scribe things by their real names ? He knows well
that Mr. WATSON has not been dismissed for
his adherence to the great principles of the Re-
formation, but for an attempt to keep
up dire hostility between two classes of her MAJESTY'S
subjects, to endanger the peace and safety of the sister
island, and give the Orange faction unlimited power
over their long-oppressed Catholic brethren. The Earl of
WINCHILSEA must not arrogate to himself the merit
of advocating Protestant principles, while he, in fact, is
disobeying one of the first principles of the Christian
faith—to love our neighbour as ourselves. Were all
of the same stamp to follow his example, we
should have less persecution, and probably, also,
fewer displays of selfish bigotry. These Orange and
High Church magistrates do an immense deal of mis-
chief, and we confidently trust that, when they begin to
imitate the example of their Irish friends, they will
receive at the hands of the Government the same
punishment.

We have received Madrid journals of the 31st ult
The stockbrokers have followed the example of the
shopkeepers, and put a stop to public transactions in the
funds for some time. The price of stock had not been
publicly quoted for several days, but a great deal of bu-
siness had been done outside. The brokers are trying
to avenge themselves for the new regulation that molests
them, and that has been issued by the Minister of
Finances in order to check jobbing. The Gazette con-
tains a royal decree appointing forty-three new Senators,
among whom is the father of NARVAEZ, who has been
created Count DE CAGNADA. The QUEEN left Bilboa
on the Ist for Bergara, on her way to Pampeluna.
The French Princes were expected to enter Spain about
the 3d, and would be received at Bidassoa by Count
VALDAMAR. The camp at Pampeluna consists of about
15,000 of the best troops. M. THIERS left Bayonne on
the 31st, on his way to Spain.

The political intelligence in the Paris papers possesses
no interest for the English reader. They consist
chiefly of attacks upon each other, or replies to state.
ments put forth in some London journals, made as if
for the purpose of stirring up the anger of the anti-Eng-
lish party. The Royal Farmily still continue at the
Chateau d'Eu. The KING' takes a great deal of exer-
cise, and according to all accounts enjoys excellent
health. It is fully believed at Paris that the Queen of
ENGLAND will pay another visit to Treport about the be-
ginning of the present week, and remain for
two days. The France says—" If we are well
informed, Queen VICTORIA will certainly visit
Eu on her return from Germany. This visit,
which Was announced last year as a reciprocity of
politeness whilst Louis PHILIPPE was at Wind-
sor, seemed to have been indefinitely postponed ; but
it appears that all the COBURGS have warmly pressed
their royal relation, and that she has yielded to their
desire. It is hoped at Eu to induce VICTORIA to visit
Paris and Versailles, and orders have, we are assured,
been given to render as brilliant as possible the reception
of the QUEEN and her husband." Whether they will pro-
ceed to Paris and Versailles is another question ; but it
seems to be finally arranged that her MAJESTY will
either proceed to Eu, on her voyage from the Scheldt,
or, at all events, after visiting the royal children in the
Isle of Wight. M. GUIZOT left Paris on Saturday, for
the purpose of attending the interview between the two

. .
Courts. The correspondent of a Contemporary says:—
" I learn that not only has a courier arrived at Eu with
an intimation that her MAJESTY may be expected to ar-
rive at Treport the beginning of next week, but that M.
GUIZOT has started this morning for the chateau d'Eu
for the purpose of meeting her MAJESTY. Queen Vic-
ToiUA. is only to remain at the Chateau d' Eau for
one day. She will arrive, it is reported, on Mon-
day, and probably leave on the following day, or at all

events on Wednesday. This visit on the part of her
MAJESTY was quite unlooked for, and is, therefore, the
more gratifying to Louis PHILIPPE. It is said that it
was through the Queen of the BELGIANS that it was in-
timated to Queen VICTORIA that the King of the
FRENCH would feel gratified by a visit from her MA.
JESTY on her return from her German trip, and the
QUEEN at once consented to a flying visit."
The following account is given in the Paris papers
of the progress of the Duke and Duchess of NEMOURS
towards Pampeluna :—" After visiting the valley of
Argeles, the defile of Pierrefitte, Cauterets, Pont d'Es-
pagne, Lake de Gaube, Luz Saint Sauveur, the Falls of
Gavarnie, and the Pic du Midi, they had so little time
left them before returning to Bayonne, in their way to
Pampeluna, that they intended to dispense with Bagnires
de Bigorro. The inhabitants, however, were so much
chagrined by the disappointment, that a petition was
drawn up and taken to their Royal Highnesses by the
Mayor, earnestly inviting their presence, were it for only
a few hours. With their usual condescension the royal
tourists consented, and arrived at Bagnares on the Ist,
alighting at the Hotel de France. They were received
with the most grateful welcome by nearly the whole as-
sembled town and neighbourhood. All the authorities
and persons of distinction were received in succession
by their Royal Ilighnesses, who afterwards gave a
grand dinner, and in the evening, notwithstanding the
fatigues of the day, went to a ball given in honour of
their presence. They took their departure the next
morning, having, as they have done at every other
place, a donation for the relief of the poor." MOHAMMED
BEN SERROUR, Envoy from the Emperor of MOROCCO to
the Court of France, had arrived at Marseilles. " He
is," says the Semaphore " about thirty-five years
of age, of a jet black, but with features which have none
of the negro cast. He was present at the battle of Islay,
in which he commanded a body of cavalry. Soon after
his arrival at Marseilles, he paid a visit to the authori-

ties, and then proceeded to Toulon, preparatory to his
journey to Paris. He has with him a secretary, a cook,
and two slaves."

The following are miscellaneous extracts from the
papers :
" Lieutenant-General Count Harispe, Peer of France, and
Commandant of the 20th Military Division, left Bayonne on
the 2d, for Tolosa, on an official visit to the Queen of Spain.
M. Thiers left Bayonne on the 31st ultimo for Madrid direct,
but was to stop a few hours at Burgos to see the cathedral."
" The Queen of Spain arrived, with her mother and sister,
at Bilboa, on the 29th ult., and were received there by the
civil and military authorities, but without any very extra-
ordinary demonstrations of enthusiasm on the part of the in-
habitants."
" General Delarue, Plenipotentiary from France to the Em-
peror of Morocco, has been promoted to the rank of Grand
Officer of the Legion of Honour ; :and M. Leon Roches, the
Chief Interpreter to the army of Africa, and Captain Pourcet,
of the staff, aid-de-camp of General Delarue, have been made
officers of the Order."
The Constitutionnel says :—" The Marquis de Villafranca
is hourly expected at Paris. He comes to solicit, it is said,
authorisation for Don Carlos and the Princess to proceed to
Rome, the climate of Bourges being altogether contrary to the
health of the Princess, who was born in Brasil. If M. de Vil-
lafranca does not obtain passports for Italy, he is directed to
demand from the French Government permission for Don Car-
los and the Princess to fix their residence in such town of the
south as they may choose."
" The vessels intended to act against the slave trade are not,"
says the Constitutionnel, " yet ready to proceed to the coasts
of Africa. They are not to set out for six weeks or two
months. Meanwhile communications are exchanged with Eng,
land every day on the subject of the mission which the tw6
navies are to fulfil together. Recently the admiralty has drawn
up regulations for day and night signals, which the English and
French cruisers are to make use of, in order to mutually recog-
nise each other. It appears that we have approved of all the
dispositions of these regulations. It is divided into two parts ;
the first concerning sailing vessels, and the other steamers.
The English navy has been long occupied for its own use with
a regulation of this kind for steamers, collisions of which are
both frequent and dangerous. In France nothing has been
done in that respect."
The Observateur du Rhin announces from Berlin that, in
consequence of the quarrels which have arisen amongst the
German Catholics, and and the schism appearing irremediable,
one party, with Caersky and Prybil at their head, are about to
adopt the Confession of Augsburg, whilst the Rongists will
unite with the Society of the Friends of Light.
A Coblentz letter, of the 29th ult., informs us that the
harvest in Rhenish Prussia was completely terminated, and
that the results were highly satisfactory. The accounts of the
corn harvest are equally cheering from Belgium.
The Cologne Gazette states that, notwithstanding the late
fine weather, nearly the whole of the growth of potatoes in the
Rhenish provinces is lost. The Chamber of Commerce at
Elbenleldt has sent a petition to the Minister of Finances, pray-
ing that the exportation of potatoes from the provinces of the
Rhine and Westphalia may be interdicted ; and the same ap-
plication is expected to be made by the other Chambers of

Commerce.

MAIDSTONE.
THE ROYAL HUMANE SOCIETY.
In the Express of the 12th of July last, we re-
ported an inquest held on the body of Thomas Whelan,
aged seven years and a half, who was unfortunately
drowned while bathing in the river Medway, on the
Wednesday preceding, although several attempts were
made by a lad of the name Albert Boorman, about 12
years of age, to save him, by diving several times after
him. Struck with the gallantry of young Boorman, we
forwarded a copy of the Express, with a letter, to the
secretary of the Royal Humane Society, thinking that
the youth was deserving of some notice at their hands.
Mr. Charlier, the secretary, with that promptitude and
gentlemanly feeling for which he is so much esteemed,
replied instantly to our communication, and forwarded a
copy of the certificates required by the rules of the so-
ciety previous to their entertaining the application.
Those were procured, and we also obtained a handsome
testimonial of the lad's conduct from F. F. Daily, Esq.,
the borough coroner, and a similar testimonial which
was kindly signed by all the jury who were on the in-
quest. We forwarded these documents to the secretary,
and on Tuesday last were gratified by the receipt of the
following letter :

Royal Humane Society
Case 14,210. Office, No. 3, Trafalgar-square, Aug. 1845,
Sir,—l have the satisfaction to acquaint you for the in-
formation of Albert Boorman, that the Committee have
awarded him the Society's Honorary Bronze Medallion for his
exemplary and humane conduct in trying to save Thomas
Whelan on the 9th ult., who was unfortunately drowned in the
river Medway. As you have taken such a great interest in the
case, I will forward you the Medal when engraved in order that
you may present it to him.
I am, Sir, your very obedient servant,
J. CHARLIER, Secretary.
Mr. James Phippen, Maidstone.
The promptitude with which this has been attended
to, and the whole proceedings, reflect great credit upon
the Humane Society, and we are proud to record it,
because, upon no distant occasion, when the noble efforts
of a Learned Baronet of this town were similarty re-
warded, it was openly asserted in many quarters that if
a poor man had performed a corresponding action, he
would have obtained no reward, nor would there have
been any notice taken of it. One fact is worth a thou-
sand arguments. In this case the good faith of the so-
ciety has been tested, and they have nobly borne out
their professions in showing that it is not rank, but de-
sert that they reward. And now we would ask, why is
a society, based upon such excellent principles, allowed
to be so deficient in their funds as to be unable to extend
their usefulness ? Why are they to rely chiefly upon
metropolitan subscriptions, when the whole country de-
rives a benefit from the institution ? To the inhabitants
of Maidstone we would say particularly, cannot you come
forward with your mites in aid of the funds of a society
which has twice, within a comparatively short period,
awarded medals to your fellow townsmen ? You have
done yourselves much credit in subscribing liberally
towards the erection of houses for a swimming club—and
we wish the principle were carried out still further, for
we are fully sensible of the utility of such things—cannot
you then, acting upon the same motives, support a so-
ciety which has such laudable objects in view as the
Royal Humane Society ? We hope that no arguments
will be required to support our suggestions.—From the
Sussex Agricultural Express, Aug. 30, 1845.

MESSRS. JOHNSTON'S EXPRESSES.—The Cork Ex-
aminer of Friday, in acknowledging the enterprising spirit of
Messrs. Johnston and Co., of Dublin, states that it had that
morning received The Sun, expressed by them from Dublin,
in seventeen hours.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS•
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
There was but little business done in Cotton at Liverpool
on Saturday. Sales 2,000 bags, at previous rates. Shares
improved a little, with more doing.
In the remarks which were made under this bead on Sa-
turday last, as to the notice-from the Director; of the Bank
of England, that the claimants to certain stock, upon which
the dividends have not been demanded for many years, the
principal claimed is 2,0001. with arrears, not 2001., as by 'mis-
take it was represented.
There are express accounts of the arrival of the West
India steamer the Trent having been off port, but the letters
and papers will not be delivered until late in the day it is
expected.
Not much business has been transacted in the Stock
market to-day. The prices are rather heavy. Consols for
the Account have been just quoted at 98%, and the same for
the first transfer day to-morrow. Exchequer-bills are at
455. to 475. premium ; India Bonds at 625., and India Stock
at 270 and 271.
The only bargains in the Foreign Funds to-day have been
in Dutch Four per Cents. at 99%, in the Chilian at 101%, in
the Mexican at 33%, in the Deferred Venezuela at 133/, and
in Grenada at 22%.
Scarcely so much business has been transacted in the Railway
Shares as on most days of the past week. The prices, on the
whole, may be said to be well maintained. The London and
Birmingham have touched 124, but are now 122 premium ;
the London and Brighton 27% premium ; the London and
South-Western are a shade lower ; the London and York
are rather higher ; the Manchester and Leeds are in dull
demand, and so are the Midlands. There is a pretty fair
demand for the French lines of railway. The London and
Westminster Bank Shares are at 7% 3/4 premium.

o'clock, four young men were proceeding in a sailing boat up
the river for a day's excursion, when off Wandsworth Meadows
a violent gust of wind caught the sail, and the beat and her

rowed up to them, and happily succeeded in getting them all
safe into their boat.

MA.IiKtT NtWS -(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY•

During the past week the arrivals of Wheat of home pro-
duce were tolerably extensive, but by no means large. Those
of all other kinds of English grain were rather limited.
Fresh up to-day the receipts of English Wheat were only
moderate, and principally of the present year's growth. The
show of samples was not to say large, while the demand,
from the increased number of buyers in attendance, was
steady. In some few instances, the first qualities of white
produced a trifle more money, say is per quarter, but which
advance was by no means general, since we cannot alter our
previous currencies. In the middling and inferior kinds of
both red and white, a fair average amount of business was trans-
acted, at prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday last.
Upwards of 27,000 quarters of foreign wheat have been im-
ported since our last, only a small portion having been en-
tered for home consumption. The show of samples this
morning was small. For nearly all descriptions, but parti-
cularly for selected kinds, the sale was firm, and previous
rates were readily supported. For corn under lock there
was more inquiry. Holders were firm, and would not sell
except at more money. The accounts which have reached
us to-day from various parts of the country, are to the effect
that considerable progress is making in harvest work. The
general yield is not well represented in some places.
We had about 200 quarters of new English Barley on offer;
but of old qualities the supply was unusually small, that of
fine foreign far from extensive. Grinding qualities com-
manded a steady demand, at full rates of currency ; while a
good clearance was effected in other kinds, at prices quite
equal to those obtained on Monday last. The arrivals of
Malt being on the increase, the Malt trade was dull ; new
parcels were quite as dear, but the value of
other kinds had, in some instances, a down-
ward tendency, and a clearance was not effected.
The supply of English, Irish, and Scotch Oats was very small,
that of foreign moderate. The Oat trade was somewhat
firmer than was that of last week ; but no improvement took
place in value. Beans were in fair supply, and sluggish de-
mand, at barely stationary prices. The arrivals of new Peas
being on the increase, most kinds sold to-day at a decline of
from is to 2s per quarter. The millers were firm holders of
Flour, and last week's prices were supported. New Mustard-
seed sold fairly, at from 14s to 18s per cwt. In other seeds
very little was doing.

Since Monday last the imports of live stack from abroad
have proved extensive—they have amounted to 200 Oxen
and Cows, 500 Sheep, and 14 Calves, mostly from Rotterdam,
and, for the most part, in excellent condition. To-day we
had on offer 150 Beasts, and 90 Sheep. The demand for
them was tolerably steady, at full prices. The last Go-
vernment Returns give the following imports during the
years 1843, 1844, and 1845, up to the sth of August.

At Hull, nearly 350 head of Beasts and Sheep, including six
Oxen, from the Rob Roy, from St. Petersburgh, the quality
of which, however, has not proved first rate. The supply of
Beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, this morning,
was seasonably extensive, and in good condition. For the
primest Scots the demand was tolerably steady, at fully last
week's quotations : but all other kinds met a dull inquiry, at
barely late rates. The Bullock droves from Lincolnshire,
Leicestershire, &c., amounted to 900 Short-horns ; from
Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, 700 Scots,
Home-breds, and Short-horns ; from the Western and
Midland Counties, 800 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ;
from other parts of England, 400 of yarious breeds ; from
Scotland, 100 Scots ; and from Ireland, 90 Beasts. The num-
bers of Sheep were small for the time of year, yet fully ade-
quate to meet the wants of the butchers. Generally speak-
ing, the Mutton trade was heavy, and prices were with
difficulty supported. Prime small Lambs sold at extreme
rates. In other qualities very little was doing. The Veal
trade was steady at Friday's prices. In Pigs rather more
business was transacted at late rates.

NNUTGATM AND LEA.DENNALL,
Since this day se'nnnght, the arrival of slaughtered meat
from Scotland, as well as most distant parts of England,
have been on a liberal scale for the time of year, and of full
average quality. With meat killed in the metropolis we
have been fairly supplied, yet, en the whole, a slight improve-
ment must be noticed in the general demand, without, how-
ever, any decided advance in the quotations. About 20 car-
cases of foreign beasts, and 100 ditto of sheep, have been dis-
posed of here at fair prices.

The accounts from several districts being unfavourable as
respects the failure in the potatoe crop, the best qualities are
held at more money. In other kinds a good business is doing
at late rates.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.
Although the plantation accounts, with the exception of
those from Mid Kent, are tolerably favourable, we have still
to notice a fair demand for most kinds of Hops, and last
week's prices are well supported. The duty is freely backed
at 175,0001. Sussex Pockets, 51 10s to 61; Weald of Kent
Pockets, 516 s to 61; Mid Kent, 51 lOs to 81; East Kent,
6/ 106 to 9155.

WOOL MARKET.
The imports of wool since our last have amounted to about
3,200 bales, chiefly from our Colonies. Privately, a full
average amount of business is doing both in English and
Foreign, and prices are well supported.
TALLOW.
This market continues firm, and the prices have rather an
upward tendency. On the spot it is difficult to get new
Y.C. at our quotations of 41s 6d, or good old Y. C. at 41s per
cwt. There is very little of the latter description on hand.
The price at St. Petersburgh has advanced a little; but there
is a large business doing, and the shipments are progressing.
The quantity for London up to the 20th of August was about
4,000 casks more than at the same time last year. Town
Tallow is scarce at 421 to 42s 6d net cash.

MELANCHOLY CIRCUMSTANCE.—We regret to state
that as Samuel, the youthful son of Mr. F. Dickerson, goal
merchant, was one day this week playing with the top of a
wafer seal, the article slipped down the child's throat, and
though it was subsequently extracted, yet the inflammation
caused thereby resulted in death. An inquest was held upon
the remains of the child on Friday afternoon—Verdiet ae-

SURREY SESSIONS.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before, Mr. PucaLa and a Bench of Magistrates.)
Three gentlemen having taken the oaths as county magia-

trat es,
The CIiAIRMAN briefly addressed the grand jury. He
said that there was little in the calendar to call for remark on
his part. The number of eases was in all 41, and none of
these were of g Very important character. As compared with
the corresponding period of last year there was a decrease of
30 cases, and the degree of crime was also greatly lightened.
The grand jury then retired, and the petit jury was
sworn in.
FELONIOUSLY WOUNDING Two CALvEs.—Janies Simmons,
aged 19, and Reuben Simmons, aged 16, were indicted for
having wounded two calves, the propesty of Michael Agate,
Ashtead, by shooting them with fire-arms.
Alr. Locke was for the prosecution ; the prisoners were un-
defended.
The case was shortly as follows :—A witness, named cane,
was at work in a field near a hovel used for the purpose of
keeping cattle. He heard a shot fired, and saw the two brothers
running off in the direction of a wood. On entering the hovel,
he found two calves wounded, one having its eye shot out, and
the other being wounded in the body. The prisoners were sub-
sequently taken into custody.
The offence was shown to have had its origin in revenge,
the younger prisoner for a similar offence having been sent to
Brixton for two months.
James Simmons said, " It was not me done it."
Reuben Simmons—" I know nothing on it."
The CILAIRMAN summed up, and the jury returned a ver-
dict of Guilty.
The prisoners were stated to helve borne a very bad cha-
racter previously, the younger one having been convicied on
two former occasions.
The sentence of the Court was that James be sent to the
House of Correction at Guildford for nine month, with hard
labour, and that Reuben be imprisoned in Britton for the same
period, also with hard labour.

GUILDHALL.-(THIS DAY.)
JUTIKNILZ DErRATITY.—A young lad, about ten years of
age, was brought before Alderman Farncombe, charged rtith
robbing his employers for some time past of money, goods, &C.
Mr. Lloyd Holden, of Finsbury .pavement, brush-maker,
stated, that the prisoner (George Edward Clements) entered
his service three weeks since. He had. been in the habit of
missing goods from time to time, but did not take any notice of
it until Saturday night, when, in consequence of the prisoner
keeping 6d. which he received in change on the Friday from
Mr. Arnold, of London-bridge, complainant accused him. The
accused, after some time, acknowledged that he had twice robbed
the cash-box, and once broken it open. He also had robbed the
till several times ; all letters that were sent to be put in the
post he destroyed and spent the money ; he also
lloons stole balls,
value ss. each, besides whips, scent-bottles, gas-ba, &c.,
to a great amount. In fact, be said that he never left the pre-
mises at night without taking something:or other under his coat.
He was in the habit, when taking goods home, instead of charging
the proper price, demanding 6d. or Is. more. When the lad
made this admission, witness did not promise to forgive him,
but onl said he would consider what he should do with him.
man KaaNcolgas remanded the prisoner until Satur-
day morning.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)
Charles Robertson, a gentlemanly-looking man, was charged
with being drunk, and committing an assault on policeman F
25, who stated that the prisoner and some others were turned
out of a public-house in the Strand. They were all very noisy,
and the prisoner and another were fighting in the street- He
attempted to separate them, and they both turned upon him ;
the prisoner knocked him down, and the other kicked him.
He was very much bruised. The other persons escaped.
The prisoner admitted the truth of the policeman's statement.
Mr. Tw T FORD said he must send him to prison for one month.
SOUTHWARK-(THIS DAY.)
Thomas Round, an elderly man, in the employ of a cab
proprietor, was charged, before Mr. Traill, with making a very
determined attempt at self-destruction.
A waterman who plies at Lambeth-stairs, stated that, at an
early hour that morning, while he was engaged in his wherry,
he observed the defendant struggling in the water off Burnett s
wharf. He immediately went to his assistance, and, in trying
to haul him into the boat, the defendant nearly upset it, and
seemed determined on carrying his object—that of drowning
himself—into effect. The witness, however, held him tightly
by the hair until further assistance arrived, and, with difficulty,
at length got him out of the water and gave him into custody.
The defendant, who has an impediment in his speech, which
was increased by the excitement produced by the attempt
upon his life, said that he was recently discharged from his
situation, and that having drank too much, he scarcely knew
what he did.
The defendant's master said he discharged him for inebriety,
and that previously he had exhibited decided symptoms of men-
tal aberration.
Mr. Taaira, said the defendant appeared to be labouring
under delirium tremens, and that he should send him to Lam-
beth workhouse, in which parish he was found.

CLERKEN WELL.-(THIS DAY•)
Two ruffianly-looking fellows named Sullivan and Pearman
were charged with assaulting and wounding an acter named

Farrell. -
Previous to the evidence being gone into, the magistrates'
clerk (Mr. Mould) observed that the new Bartholomer fair,
which lasted during the whole of last week, was a great nui-
sance. All the pickpockets and vagabonds in London seemed
to have assembled there. They must have had at least 40
prisoners from it. The fair was got up by a beer-shop keeper,
and surely this individual ought to be indicted.
Mr. Coil)/ said the police had better look to it.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoners, unpro-
voked, attacked Hannah, who was conveying home some of
the parapharnalia of a theatrical exhibition, in which he acted
at the fair. He resisted, and Sullivan struck him with a saw
on the breast, producing a deep and severe wound, from which
the blood flowed profusely. Pearman also struck him.
Sergeant G 3 stated that when the prosecutor reached the
station, he was bleeding so freely from a wound in the hand,
that he found it necessary to send him to the hospital.
Sullivan was sentenced to pay a fine of 11., or a month's im-
prisonment, Pearman 10s., or a fortnight.
