Mr . V . Sftiin thought that the present qualification was an idle ground of objection to p-rsons , and , though considered io he a serious impediment , was , in fact , none . The noble lord .-aid the occasion on which the motion was brought forward was Singular ; but the noMe lord forgot that his right hon . friend had only ju ^ . recovered his independent power ot speech . ( A ' laug ! . ) His rig ht aon . friend had always been an eager reformer , " and therefore
took the earliest opponunitv of showing it . ( A laueh . ) He .-uppo .-edthebi-rof the hmf . member for " G .-iteshe-xd was founded on th- rcc-.-.. t ca * o of the Harwich Committee . He ( Mr . T . SmWi )« as on that committee , and never had he con . c to a more painful decision , the fcoii . gwiilcim . il who was returned not laving a sufficient qiniificatfoii in dns country The hon . member for Warwickshire seemed to la isunderetaiid the hill , and to think that it was to give roproseniatives to tbe colonic * . It was a bill to srive a qualification to any member returned in England having property in the colonies . He thought all extensions of the qualification were objectionable , and that the qualification itself ought to be done away with altojrethi .-r , but he would advise his right hon . friend not to press his motion .
Mr . Trr . vEtL said he thought he should best serve the cause of the Reformers by leaving the case in the hands of the noble lord , and would , therefore , withdraw his motion . Thc- motion was accordingly withdrawn . Mr . Hun said that , a f ter the statement of the noble lord , to which ho , and he was sure other hon . members , had listened to with the greatest satisfaction , he would not call on the house to proceed further with this bill . ( Hear . ) Tbe order of the day was then read , for the purpose of being discharged . Home-made Spirits in Bond Bill . —On the motion that this bill be read a second time ,
The Cjian-cellor of the Exchequer strongly opposed the motion , contending that the principle upon which the excise duties were levied was , that they should be levied at the earliest possible period , so as to get rid of the supervisions of thc excise . The hill was introduced upon the plea that foreign and colonial spirits had an advantage in the mode of bondinjr over home-made spirits , which was calculated so lessen the comparative consumption of the latter . This he contended was : m error , and quoted returns to show , that since the year 1 S 47 , colonial and foreign spirits had decreased in consumption , while that of home-made spirits had largely increased . Any change in the present law of bonding would be an unfair disadvantage to the English distiller . The change asked for would be unjust and unfair , and would lead to considerable frauds , and he therefore hoped the house would not assent to the second readimr of the bill .
Lord Naas contended that the restrictions complained of amounted to nothing short of the prohibition of the exportation of home made spirits . He admitted that the consumption of home made spirits had increased ; but he could not agree that the prosperity of the trade should be any argument against relieving it from a system which was felt to be a grievance . There would be no loss to thc revenue ; or if there should be , the Scotch and Irish distillers would readily submit to an increased duty to make up that loss . " The English distillers were playing the part of the dog in the manger—they did not want tho concession themselves , and they opposed its being given to all others . Mr . BnAUSTON moved as an amendment that the bill be read a second time that day six months . Mr . Bass opposed the bill .
Mr . Retxolds said the last speaker had let the cat out of the bas m resting his opposition to the hill on the ground that it would lead to an interference with English labour by the labour of Ireland and Scotland . The truth was then he feared for tho monopoly of the Engliss distillers , and therefore called upon the house to sacrifice the interests of ISO Scotch distillers and fifty-six Irish distillers to the interests of eleven English monopolists . Mr . GouLunousx said if the bill should pass there would be an impression throughout the country tbat an unfair advantage had been given to Scotch
and Irish distilleries , and he warned honourable gentlemen that when the reaction set iu thev would find it carried , perhaps to an extent injurious to the very interests they were endeavouring to serve . Mi-, j . A . Smith thought the time had come when they should put an cud to tho difference between the ' duties levied on Scotch and English spirits . The house then divided , and the numbers were—For tbe second reading ... ICO For the amendment 104—23 The orders of the day were then disposed of , and thc house adjourned . THURSDAY , July 10 .
HOUSE OF LORDS . —In the House of Lords , last night , Lord Brougham , in consideration of the advanced period of the session , announced that he should not endeavour to make any further progress this year with his bill for extending tho jurisdiction of tlie county courts over cases of bankruptcy or equity . The Bnreess and Freeman ' s Franchise Bill was read a second time , < m the motion of Lord
Beaumont . In moving for certain papers the Earl of Ellknbohough took occasion to comment upon the clauses of the Merchant . Seamens' Fund Bill , now before the Commons , and offered many objections to tfie provisions of that measure . Earl Granville vindicated the principle of the bill , and insisted upon its necessity . The papers were ordered to be laid on the table . The Common Lodging-houses Bill went through committee , and their lordships adjourned . HOUSE OF COMMONS . —The Merchant Seamens' Fund Bill , and the Land Clause Consolidation ( Ireland ) Bill , were severally considered in committee , and some progress made with tbe clauses of the respective measures . The Inhabited House Duty Bill . —Tbe third reading of this bill having been moved ,
Mr . Disraeli reiterated the objections he had previously urged against this portion of the finance scheme constructed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer . Instead of being made a complete substitute for tbe abolished window tax , a large deficiency was left , for which the house would have hereafter to provide by an increase in the burthen of direct taxation . He strongly disapproved of a measure that pointed to such a result , and prognosticated that before long the house and the country would join in condemning a policy , which involved tbe necessity of an addition to the existing pressure of the taxes weighing directly upon property and
income . Lord J . Russell felt satisfied with thestrongarguments and hig h authorities that had been pronounced in favour of a moderate and regulated house duty as a means of raising revenue . Tho deficiency dwelt upon by Mr . Disraeli was altogether conjeetural , and meanwhile the country was well rid of a tax which prevented the free access of light and air into the dwellings of the people . The bill was then read a third time and passed . Rajah Brooke . —Mr . Hume moved for an address to her Majesty praying for a commission to inquire into the proceedings of Sir James Brooke on the
coast of Borneo , and specially with reference to his attack , aided by a naval force belonging to the East India Company , upon certain wild tribes of that island called the Sakarran and Sarebas Dyaks on the night of the 21 st of Jul y , 1 S 49 . The hon . member referred to a variety of documentary evidence to show that these Dyaks where a comparattaely feeble and inoffensive race . Under the circumstances the attack made upon them was equivalent to a massacre , and he contended tha . t a , full inquiry ought to be made , in order to determine how far the Governor of Sarawak was justly amenable for that grievous crime .
The motion was seconded by Mr . Ubquhabt . After a lengthy discussion , the house divided . For the resolution 19 Against 230—211 The Stock in Trade Bill was passed through committee . The house adjourned at one o ' clock . FRIDAY , Jdly 11 . HOUSE OF LORDS . —Lord Brougham , in presenting a petition from Mr . Paxton praying that means should be devised to preserve the Crystal Palace which the commissioners were now pledged to remove by a given time , said he was desirous of supporting its prayer . Lord Campbell stated many objections to the perpetuation of the building . Lord Uede

The " Vorthern Star " And The " Silk Wea...
THE " VORTHERN STAR " AND THE " SILK WEAVERS . In our edition of the 23 th of June , a report appeared of a meeting of the Silk Weavers , at the Cooper's Arm ? , Cheshire-street . Waterloo-town , at which a resolution in favour of Protection was said to have been adopted , and some harsh language waiuscdbya Mr . Hollis towards George Thompson , the member of parliament for the Tower Hamlets . The report was copied from the Herald , and appears to have given off-.-nco to some of tho Trade . On Wednesday evening , July 9 th , a meeting , convened by placard , was called at the same house , to censure the unfair report which appeared in the Star , and to set the Weaver ' s Trade right in the eyes of the public . The attendance was not numerous . Mr , Bowling was called to the chair , and stated the nature of the meeting .
Mr . vhimmi explained how the report appeared in the Northern Star , and thought it unjust in them to censure that journal , when the fault ( if any ) lay with thc Morning Herald . The report alluded to was then read , also a letter from the sub-editor of the Northern Star . Mr . DELAi-oncE stated that no reporter was prosent on the occasion , and that the report had been f urnished by some private party for interested purposes , and to them , and not the Star , was blame t-ttributable . The report was entirely false , as far as it related to any resolution being passed . A resolution and an amendment were both before the meeting , but the hour for closing having arrived , the chairman left the chair without either being put to the meeting . He was in favour of protection , but he was equally in favour of fair play . Mr . Hickman denied that the weavers , as a body , were in favour of protection .
Messrs . Tempest and Ferdinando spoke m favour of protection . After considerable discussion , a vote of censure was passed on the parties furnishing the report of the meeting ; and a true account thereof was ordered to be sent to the Morning Herald . A vote of thanks was given to thc Northern Star , for its general advocacy of the cause of the working classes ; and to the Editor for his courteous note : after which the meeting separated .
! Tre Suspected Murder At Norwichwe Stat...
! TRE SUSPECTED MURDER AT NORWICHWe stated last week , as our readers will remember , that portions of a female body ha , d been found in different localities in the neighbourhood of this city . A rigid seach was then instituted in every direction , and this search has been unremittingly continued . The result has been the subsequent discovery of :-onie further remains . On Saturday a piece of skin and a piece of muscle were found by the police iu Mr . Chapman ' s field , adjoining Ilangman ' s-laiie , a locality in which , up to that time , no remains had been discovered . A portion of u shinbone was also brought to the slation-houi-c , on Saturday , which had " been found on thc Hellesdonroad , on the previous Friday week , and been given to a do ? . There was then upon it a largo piece of liesh , which , together with a portion of the bone , the dog consumed . On Sunday morning , some intestines were taken to tbe police-station , which had been found in a drain in Bishop-street , and had been deposited with the filth in the Bull-close . —On
Monday , a field opposite Mile-cross , on the Ileucsdon-road , where several pieces had been previousl y found , a body of men were set to mow down the grass , and while they were doing so , one of their scythes came in contact with a hard substance , which they found to be a portion of a human thighbone . It appeared to have been left thereby a dorr , as the flesh was completly cleaned off , and portions of the bone seemed to have been gnawed away . During the same day , what appeared to be a part of a female breast was brought to the station-house . —On Wednesday afternoon , some portions of ribbones , with flesh upon them , were discovered in the river near the Foundry Bridge . They appeared to have been divided by a rough saw ; but it is not known whether they are human or not . On the same day sornc intestines were found in the river , at Whitliughain , but the medical men are unable to give a decided opinion as to whether thoy have formed part of a human body . —No further remains have since been discovered .
Until within the last few days no doubt appeared to exist iu the minds " of the public that a most atrocious and cold-blooded murder bad been committed , and many suspicious rumours , both in reference to whom the murderer and victim might be , were in circulation , most , if not all , of which came to the ears of Mr . Superintendent Tarington , who applied himself most assiduously to their investigation , but to none of these did any importance attach with thc exception of one , which seemed to demand a close examination . This was a rumour that a young man named Eaton ,
who resides iu Crook ' s-placc , had publicly stated to several parties that he knew the person who committed the murder ; and that a lad in the employ of Mr . Pycroft , butcher , had had something to do with it . Eaton was accordingly apprehended , and he underwent two or three close examinations before thc magistrates , together with the boy above alluded to and some other witnesses . The rumour appeared to have arisen from some meaningless expressions on the part of Eaton— - who is said io be only half-witted—and he was discharged .
One extraordinary statement which has found its way into the columns of some of our contemporaries we must contradict—namely , that a large portion of the body had been found at Dereham . This tale is evidently a sheer invention of some over-fertile brain . The question still remains undecided—Has a murder been committed after all ? We must say that if such is the case , it is most surprising that , although the greatest publicity has been given to the circumstance of the discovery of these remains—bills announcing the fact having been sent to every post town and to every newspaper in England , and the greatest excitement having been caused throughout the country , yet there has been
no information of any person being missed who is supposed to have come to such an untimely end . The parties mentioned in our last paper as having been lost have since been heard of . Under these circumstances , of course the probability that a murder has been perpetrated is greatly lessened , and tbe opinion is becoming very general—and not least so among the medical gentlemen of the city —that the portions which have been found , are parts of a female body which has fallen into the hands of some young surgeons who knew not what to do with it , and who have made a bungling band of disposing of it . We confess that , from all we can learn , there is some ground for suspicion that this is the mode in which the mystery will be accounted for .
As a circumstance which it is just possible may have some connexion with the murder—if such a deed has really been committed—we may state that Mr . John Wright , who lives opposite the Dolphin , in Upper Heigham , has given information at the police-office , that about half-past eleven o ' clock on the night of Monday , the' 2 nd of last month , he heard five or six violent shrieks by a female , as though she were either being murdered or in great danger . The shrieks came from the direction of Heigham Causeway . —West Norfolk News .
Compound Householders.—An Important Alte...
Compound Householders . —An important alteration has just been made by Parliament with respect to voters known as "Compound Householders . " The new act is entitled , " Au Act to amend the Law for the Registration of certain Persons commonly known : * s ' Compound Householders , ' and to facilitate the exercise by such persons of their right to vote in the election of Members to serve in Parliament . " By parties availing themselves of the provisions of the act before the 20 th inst . the franchise may be
extended . According to the Reform Act ( 2 nd and 3 rd William IV . cap . 45 ) the poor rates are required to be paid by the 20 th of July in each year which were payable by the 6 th of April ; and by another act , regulating the payment of the rates and taxes by Parliamentary electors ( 11 th and 12 th Victoria , chap . 00 ) , the rates were to be paid by the same period which were payable by the 5 th of January in each year . It seems that " Compound Householders " are required to make continual claim to be registered , and it is declared to be " oiten inconvenient or
impracticable for such persons to make continual claims in respect to each rate , and many persons are consequently deprived of the franchise . " Therefore it is enacted , that persons having once claimed to be rated in respect of premises , and paying or tendering , on or before the 20 th of July , the rate due by the 5 th of January preceding , shall not be required in future to renew such claim . The liability of a claimant to rates is to continue so longas he occupies the premises , and remains on the register . A composition with a landlord is to determine the amount of rate to which the tenant is liable . .
Delegates are to be sent by the French agricultural interest to examine the various machints exhibited in the Crystal Palace . The French Ministerof Commerce has also ordered that a deputation from the professional schools of Chalons , Anglers , and Aix , as well as from the national manufactories of Sevres , the Gobelins , and Beauvais , shall visit the Exhibition . The Pope has just created at Rheims an order ot St . Reuvy , aU the members of the m etropolitan chapter of which will wear insignia . Tney will be authorised to wear the violet frock , like the bishops . The King and Queen of Saxony are visiting the Emperor of Austria , at Schonbrunn .

Guildhall.—James K.Jhv , 8 Labouring Man...
GUILDHALL . —James K . jHv , 8 labouring man , was placed at the bar , before Alderman Kelly , charged with being concerned , with several others not in custody , in ^ stealing a chest of carpenter ' s tools , value about £ 3 . —The prisoner was remanded , Wixnow Breakers . —Harriet Marshall and Mary Anne King , the former a desperate window smasher , were charged with attempting to break the windows of Messrs . Hitchcock and Rogers , of St . Paul's Churchyard . —Alderman Kelly : You are well known here , Marshall , You must find sureties in £ 10 each for your good behaviour . Marshall : Where am 1 to find sureties ? ( A laugh . )—Alderman Kelly : If you cannot find them you must go to prison for one month . —Marshall : Thank you , my lord . I wish I Was near you , I'd break your head ' . Here her language became so disgusting that the officer was obliged to hurry her to one of the cells beneath the court .
MANSION-HOUSE . - Joseph A » y Again .-Scott , the officer , informed the Lord Mayor that Joseph Atly had been taken into custody for the sum of £ 17 15 s ., due to her Majesty for the postage of letters , and lodged in tho Compter . The Lord Mayor said he regretted very much that he was obliged to issue warrants against a man of such an advanced age j but the defendant presented an instance of obstinacy the most extraordinary and incorrigible , and if Mr . Ad y was determined to persevere in the course , against which he had been so frequently and urgently remonstrated with , a magistrate had no alternative but to punish him for the transgression of the law . A policeman said he had seen the defendant deposit a parcel containing between , he supposed , 200 to 300 unpaid letters , a
few days before his apprehension , in one of thc branch offices . Case of Stabbing . —George Chaplin was brought before Alderman Wire , charged with having stabbed Paul Ryan , a cabman , in tho arm with a knife , — The Prosecutor said -, I was standing in the street at half-past twelve o ' clock on Saturday , in conversation with another person , when the prisoner ran against us . I cried " Hallo , governor , take care of my foot . " Ue replied in a very abusive way , and used disgusting language . Wo then bad a few words , and he put himself in a fighting attitude , and asked me what I could do . I struck him in
my own defence , and ho partly took off las coat . He then looked at me , put it on again , and said , "I'll g ive you something before I have done with you . " He then went into the road , and returned immediately , and as I was speaking to a person he gave me a severe blow with something very heavy on the head , which stunned me and cut my hat . He then ran off , and I followed and struck him . I saw that ho had a knife in his hand , and he instantly struck at me with it , and it pierced my arm , which I held up to defend myself . The wound in my arm was an inch in length . The prisoner was committed for trial .
Threatening Letters . —W . Lacey was charged with having sent threatening letters to Thomas Bare , carpenter , who superintends the works of the new market at Billingsgate under Mr . Jay . The prosecutor said -. I have the power of engaging and discharging the men under tho contractor . —The prisoner was engaged as a watchman , and I had occasion to discharge him . I afterwards saw him , and ho said he had been told by the walking foreman to return to his employment . I said to him , "that if the walking foreman knew what I knew about him , there would be no re-engagemenfc of the kind ; for I understood that he ha d boon absent during Sundays ; and consequently strangers were allowed to be about the place , and I would not give him charsre of theplace again , until I should see the party
referred to . '' The result of my communication with the walking foreman was , that thc prisoner was not reinstated tit the situation , and he wrote three letters to me subsequently . —Here Alderman Wire read the letters . They accused tho prosecutor and Maxwell , a person also in tho employment of Mr . Jay , of having caused to him the loss of his place . Ctdlea them infernal rogues , and promised to them both a speedy and violent removal from the world . As the second letter was more formidable than the first , and thc third more formidable than the second , the prosecutor , it was considered , had some cause for apprehension , and it was determined that measures should be taken to protect him and the man who was marked down as his companion in punishment . The prisoner was committed for trial at the Central Criminal Court .
Stealing a Clock . —John Kleyser was charged with having stolen an American clock from the premises of Messrs . Brewster and Co ., of Walbrook . The prisoner had hired a porter to bo in waiting for him in Walbrook , in order to carry some goods in a blue bag . The prisoner went into Messrs . Brewster and " Co . ' s shop , and soon afterwards returned , took the bag from the porter , and reentered the shop , apparently for the purpose of getting the bag filled , having desired the man to stay about the Mansion House till it should be ready . The prisoner , however , did not call him to do the job , but was to his surprise taken into custody upon the charge of having stolen a clock , and secreted it in the blue ba £ . The clock was found in the bag in a vard , in premises near the shop ,
which bad been plundered , in which place the prisoner no doubt deposited the stolen property in his hurry and fear of detection . Committed for trial . A Malicious Case . —Catharine Jane Henry and Mary Ann Ward were charged before Alderman Carter with having burned the clothes off the back of Sarah Young , with vitriol . —The prosecutrix said , on Monday night , at half-past eleven o ' clock , as I was walking along Cheapside , a gentleman whom I know stopped to speak to me , and the two prisoners passed while we were talking together . He left me and walked in the direction they had taken ; and , in about five minutes , they returned , and Henry came up to me and said , Jewess , where are you going ? I was frightened , for I had known and had cause to be alarmed at being addressed by
Henry . She then said you must come and have a drop of gin . I said I was one who did not drink , but I consented to accompany her and Ward to the door of a public-house in the Old Jewry . I refused to enter the door but Henry went in , and brought out a glass of g in-and-water , to which 1 just put my lips . She drank it off herself , and I began to get more alarmed , and said I would go home . She then took me by thc hand and said she had been greatly embittered against me , but would never do me any more harm . She took something out of a basket which she had upon her arm , and I instantly f elt something like treacle run down my back , and said , " What is the matter with me ? " At that moment she threw away something , and ran off aa fast as she could . I found afterwards that she had cone
and changed her clothes , and I at once perceived that my satin cloak , which had cost mo £ 5 , and my dress , were burned off my back . I felt a burning heat in my back , and I feel it still , and am convinced that she had thrown vitriol over me . She and her sister , who was some time ago imprisoned for stabbing me , had threatened to do me some desperate mischief . —The defendants had been previously punished and bound over to keep the peace for assaulting the complainant . —Henry said , "A girl of the name of Miller bought the vitriol and nave it to me , as I was drunk , and this girl ( Sarah Young ) abused me in the street and struck me , and so I flung it at her . I had been drinking the whole of last week , and did not know what I was about . " —Remanded .
THAMES . —Mutiny . —Thomas Burnett , Thomas Han-is , and John Walsh , three powerful young seamen , lately belonging to the ship American Congress , were charged with assaulting and beating Mr . William Irving Coates , the third officer of that vessel . —Mr . Peluam , who appeared for the prosecution , briefly stated the facts as supported in the following evidence : —The prosecutor , Mr . Coates , whose face presented a dreadful appearance , and whose left eye was nearly " gouged" out of the socket , stated that as the vessel ' was hauling out of the Shad well-basin of the London Dock on Monday evening , a number of loose women got 011 the quay and addressed some of the men in the most obscene language . The men began to answer them in the same strain , and as tho captain ' s lad ^
and several other females were on the deck , witness remonstrated with -Harris , who was the most foul-mouthed of the men , and , by the captain ' s directions , ordered him forward ; and , on his refusal , had to push him on , when the two other prisoners interfered . At the instance of some gentlemen witness retired to the quarterdeck , en which the three prisoners and five other men came aft , and set on him simultaneously ; after a gallant resistance , he was knocked down on the deck , when the whole posse fell on him , kicking , thumping , and beating him about the head with a heavy lignum viuc belaying-pin , until he was rendered almost insensible , but was soon roused up hy an intense agony , which made him scream aloud , as one of the party—he could not say which—attempted to scoop out his left eye . There were cries from some " Kill him ; do for him ; " whilst other voices called out , "Do not murder the man . "—
Mr . J , B . White , agent of the American stores , hore testimony of the indecency of the langusfe used , and the violence which ensued . Witness saw a belaying pin used , but could not say by which of the parties . The captain , who had also been assailed , called for his arms , on which llaw-s said , " If you use your pistols , we can use knives . " It was most fortunate that theconflict did noteml fatally . — James Lancaster , the carman who had brought the stores from Mr . White's , and who witnessed the whole affray from thc quarter dock , confirmed the otherwitnesses , and proved that Harris seized the captain , when remonstrated with upon his conduct . The chief mate then seized the fellow , on which the others rushed forward and swore that no English officers should command them . A general struggle then ensued , during which Hams- used the belaying pin in a most ferocious manner . Tho scene on board was terrific , and several of the ladies were so alarmed that they fainted away . It ; - ,
Guildhall.—James K.Jhv , 8 Labouring Man...
-peci '" - Whi ; o , of the Ttivei- Police , soon after broiicht his galley and crew alongside , tinJ after a evos'P sivutislo tho prisoners were secured . — Mr . J . 15 . Goiliery , of the Mount , Whitecliapel , who examined the prosecutor , said it was obvious an attempt had been made to scope out his eye . lie was , moreover bruised and beaten generally about the head and body , sustaining injuries such aa miaht be inflicted by kicks or blows from some heavy " blunt instrument . His head was a mass of bruisesand one of the lumps was as large as an egg , and ho was tit present suffering great pain from the maltreatment . The prisoners , in their defence , insisted that they wore tho aggrieved parties , and the captain and " his officers were the aggressors .
Thev said that they were not aware that Mr . Coates , who had just come on board , was third otnccr —This , however , was disproved , as it was shown that whilst assaulting Mr . Coates , they said " no third English officer should command them . " Mr . Yardley said it was his duty to teach such person s that they must be obedient to their officers , and not disturb the discipline of the vessel , whether those officers were English , American , or of any other country . It was probable they had been drinking-, a custom too prevalent both with English and American sailors on leaving port . That , however was no excuse , when tho consequences resulted in such violent breaches of discipline . He should not send them for trial , but fine
each of them £ 5 , or be imprisoned for six weeks . — By the American law the clothes , and what balance of wages may be due to them will be forfeited to the funds of tbe American Refuge Society . Robbery . —George Hawkin , alias Hankins , with several other aliases , a well-known thief , who has also been tried for highway robbery , was charged with stealing a watch . —His last appearance at this court was for a robbery at the Stepney Church , and most of his companions have been since transported . He has latclv , it appears , taken to trying the dodge on board the river steamers . On Tuesday night the prosecutor , John T . Taylor , an ongraver , of High-street , Peekham , having returned about eleven o ' clock from a visit to Roshorville , whilst standing on the deck of the Vesper at
Blackwall Pier , felt a slight tug , and found his watch-chain severed in two . lie seized tho prisoner , whowasnearest to him , saying , "Idonothke to accuse any one wrongfully , but I suspect you . " The prisoner called him aside , and said , "Perhaps you have dropped it . " Tho watch was subsequently found amongst the coals , near which the prisoner stood , and a woman named Wriggleswortll had seen him in close contact with the prosecutor just before the watch was gone . When taken into custody by Preston , he said lie was a respectable man and so was his father before him . —Several constables , however , gave him quite a contrary character , and Mr . Yardley having been reminded of the Stepney Church affair , committed him for trial at tho ensuing session of the Central Criminal Court .
WORSHIP-STREET . —Obstructing a Railway Train , —Cornelius Upton and Joseph Guttcridge , two decently dressed youths , were placed at the bar before Mr . Arnold , charged with having wantonly and maliciously placed a stone upon the line of the Eastern Counties Railway , whereby the lives of tho passengers travelling thereon had been seriously endangered . —Walter Capes , one of the railway guards , stated that while proceeding in charge of his engine down the line of the Blackwall and Woolwich Railway , at twelve o ' clock on the preceding day , for the purpose of taking a train of coke from one of the sidings on to the main line , he saw the prisoners stooping down over the points immediately iu front of him , one of which was drawn out
oy Upton , wmle the other prisoner deliberately dropped some large substance between the tongue of the point and the rail . The engine was at that moment in the act of running from the main line on to the siding the points were attached to , but he fortunately noticed the obstruction iu sufficient time to enable him to warn the driver to stop the engine , which was immediatelydone , and on proceeding to the spot and examining the points he found the large stone now produced firmly jambed between the tongue of the point and the rail , and the point was so driven out that but for his timely discovery of the wanton act the engine must have inevitably been thrown off the line , and the lives of himself and the driver been probably sacrificed . Tho
instant the prisoners found they were detected , they Started off across the adjoining fields , but were pursued by . witness , who Speedily overtook Gtlttoridge , and upon charging him witb the act , ho denied that he had done so , and said that the offence bad been committed by the other prisoner , which the latter admitted upon being taken into custody some time afterwards , but alleged that he had placed thc stone there at the instigation of Gutteridge . Tbe witness produced the stone in question , which was a large piece of flint , of such dimensions as must have produced the most serious results but for its fortunate discovery and removal . Tho prisoners declined offering any answer to the charge , and tho depositions having been partially taken by
Mr , Vine , the chief clerk , they were ordered to be brought up again for their formal completion . MARYLEBONE . J— Attempted Suicide . — Mary Sankey , the wife of a man working for the parish ol St . Marylebouo , was brought up from St . Mary ' s Hospital , Paddington , and placed at the bar before Mr .

A Police constable deposed that at halfp ast twelve on the morning of the 2 nd instant he heard loud cries from the direction of thc canal in the Bloomfield-road , and on his proceeding to the spot and turning on his light he beheld the prisoner floating on the surface of the water . He plunged in after her , and at length brought l , er out just as she was sinking , when , as soon as she had arrived at a state of consciousness , she said she wished he had not rescued her , as she wished to have remained
where she was , anil thus get rid of all her trouble Witness , with assistance , conveyed her to the statioil-housc , where she was attended t < J by a surgeon , by whose directions she was removed to the hospital . While thereit was a difficult raatterto induce her to swallow a particle of food , and she had more than once made a desperate effort to strangle herself . She had also some months ago tried to drown herself in the river at Blackwall and at half-past ten last Tuesday night week ( two hours prior to her being rescued from a watery grave ) she was drunk at a , public-house in the Edgware-road , and injured herself by falling across a fender . As it was quite evident that she wasiu so badaconditioti as to render it necessary thatshe should be at once put under the care of a medical gentleman in the pa < ish to which she belongs , she was sent to the Marylebone Iufirmarv .
Attempted Suicide . —Emma Long , the wife of a respectable mechanic , was brought up for re-examination , charged with having attempted , at an early hour in the morning of Thursday week last , to drown herself in the Regent ' s Canal , near Hanover-gate . It was shown that Trayto , one of the park constables , at his own imminent peril , plunged into the water after the unhappy woman , ami fortunate ! v succeeded in saving her life . It further appeared that the prisoner was much addicted to drink , and that in Consequence thereof a separation between her and her husband had taken place . She acknowledged that she herself was much to blame . Remanded for a weeli .

John ' swook Park , by falsely representing that he had recently fallen off a scaffold and sustained such severe injury as to incapacitate him from doinu any work . —The case was clearly established against him , and it was shown by the evidence of Daniels and Harvey active officers of the Mendieity Society , that he ( prisoner ) was one of the most artful beggars in existence , and that he had repeatedly been convicted at Alarlborough-street and other police courts —lie was sent to hard labour in the House of Correction for three months .
RoBBEiiY . —Anne Clamnor , servant to Mrs . Maria Lewis , a lady residing at 65 , St .

of tho defendants in a stooping position , urging on two dogs , which f ought in a most furious and savage manner . Ho at first observed the fighting through an aperture at the side ot * the " shed , knocked , and was admitted at the door , and the candles which had been lighted were then extinguished . Desired Walker to procure a light , which no did , and then perceived that the dogs had hold of each other ; one of them was torn , and bleeding very much , and they both seemed nearly exhausted . —After much other evidence extenuating as well as corroborative had been heard , Mr . Broughton fined Walker 40 s and costs , and discharged the other prisoners . MARLBOROUGH-STREET . —Caution to
Police Constables . —Frederick Viner , one of the C division of police constables , was brought before Mr . Hardwick charged with having absented himself from his duties as policc-COnBtablO without leave from his superiors . —Mr . Otway , the superintendent , said thc defendant was one of the constables serving under him . On Wednesday he paid the defendant his week's pay , and the next day the defendant was reported absent . The defendant took away some part of the police uniform , and was not apprehended until Sunday , Thc defendant it was discovered had been cohabiting with a woman of loose character . —The defendant did not deny the charge , and expressed his sorrow for his misconduct . —Mr . Hardwick said the case was clearly proved , and fined the defendant forty shillings , or fourteen days' imprisonment .
FitAUD . —Richard Roberts , a man well known to the gentlemen of the Pytchlcy Hunt , and Charles Miles , were charged with obtaining money by the following fraud . —A policeman staled that on Monday evening , he w ;» a on duty near tho Stanhopegate , Hyde Park , wiien a gentleman on horseback came up , and pointing out the prisoners , told him they had been annoying him and several other gentlemen by stopping them , and demanding money of them . Witness followed them and watched them for some minutes , when he saw the prisoners come up to a gentleman and stop him . He then heard
Miles say , '' Sir , your horse has got a stone in his foot . " Tho prisoner Roberts then stooped down and pretended to remove a stone from the horse ' s forefoot , the said stone having been supplied to him by Miles , who took it from his pocket . For this pretended service the prisoner received a shilling . Having seen them defraud two other gentlemen in the same manner , he took them in charge . In the pocket of Miles he found several stones anil 3 s . in silver , and on Roberts seven duplicates and oid . in coppers . —The prisoners , who strongly denied tho charge , were committed to prison for fourteen days .
BOW-STREET . — Pumous Driving . — George Brown , omnibus driver , was charged with furious and reckless driving , also with concealing his badge . —Captain Pakenham , of the Coldstream Guards , stated that on the 1 st of July he was coming in a cab up Parliament-street , Westminster . On arriving at Whitehall ho observed tlie defendant drive his omnibus before the cab-horse ' s head with such rapidity and violence as to turn it on to the pavement , where it struggled , to the imminent danger of the passers-by , till the omnibus , by resuming its path , would allow it to recover . The defendant then turned round , and made some
jeering observation to the cabman , who , however , got down and attempted to find defendant ' s badge , which he was unable to discover . Defendant said in answer to the charge of concealing his badge that just before the occurrence it commenced raining , and he had taken off his light coat , on which was hung his number , and thrown it on the roof of the bus . ' Mr . Henry said it was . clew that < lcfendantbad committed a gross imprudence , and one which might have led to dangerous consequences . On the charge of reckless driving he should fine £ 3 , and for not having his badge displayed £ 2 , or one month ' s imprisonment .
WESTMINSTER . —Shocking" Accident . —Win , George James , an omnibus driver , was charged with running over an old gentleman , whereby his life is placed in imminent danger . It appeared from the evidence adduced , that on Saturday evening defendant ' s ( a Pimlico ) omnibus entered the Broud Sanctuary , from Tothill-street , when , observing a Westminster omnibus passing the law courts from Abingdon-street , he whipped his horses and increased his pace , as it seemed to turn the corner near Parliament-street the same time as
the other driver , and after passing lung-street Struck an old gentleman named Robert Jakeman , who was crossing tho road , and the pole having knocked him down , two of the wheels passed over bis throat and jaw . He was immediately conveyed to the Westminster Hospital , and defendant , after rendering what assistance he could at thc moment , pursued his journey , but subsequently finding , in consequence of the serious condition of the unfortunate sufferer , that the police had inquired for him , immediately surrendered himself . In the course of cross examination by Mr . Lewis , who attended on behalf of the defendant , the witnesses , who all stated that lie had lessened his pace at the time of the accident , differed in their account of
the speed at which he was driving at that moment ; it , however , appeared to bo very moderate , as the constable , who .-c evidence was stronger than the other witnesses , would not take upon himself to swear that he was exceeding the rate of six tuilcs an hour . It was further elicited , by Mr . Lewis , that the unfortunate sufferer was eighty-four years of age , and extremely feeble . Iu reply to the charge , Mr . Lewis submitted tbat there was no culpable negligence on thc part of his client , who was driving so steadily at the time that a gentleman had given his address , and expressed his willingness to come forward to prove that he was not to blame . He thought those should be censured who permitted un old gentleman who was so feeble to come out alone . It was purely an accident , arising out of
lus infirm condition . —Mr . Morgan , an inspector of the B division , produced a certificate , stating that the unfortunate man was in considerable danger , and said it was questionable whether ho would survive the day . Mr . Burre-U observed that the road was very wide at the spot where tho accident had occurred , and any person crossing could be plainly seen by an attentive driver . The evidence went clearly to show that he had whipped his horses , and it would appear that another object was attracting his notice at the time . It did " not follow that because a man was advanced in years and feeble that he was to be run over ; and it was impossible to say what might be thc result of the injuries , he must call upon the defendant to find bail to appear again next Monday . Bail was put in .
GREENWICH . — Violent Assault . — James Chesnell , groom to Captain Lane , R . N ., whose residence is at Wrothani , Kent , but who is now on the Continent , was charged with cruelly ill treating one of his master ' s horses , and also violently assaulting the police in the execution of their duty , —Poliee constable John Wheble , 300 R , deposed that on the previous evening , at a quarter before six o ' clock , whilst he was on duty in the Lee-road , he saw a great crowd of persons assembled in front of the Tiger ' s Head-inn . On going towards them he saw the prisoner mounted on horseback and most unmercifully fio'rL'in- ' the
animal on the flanks with a stout whip . On remonstrating with him , but to no purpose , he ( witness ) took hold of the bridle and ordered him to dismount . This be refused to do in tbe most infuriate manner , saying " You b , I'll learn you to touch my horse . " He then commenced beating the animal over tbe head with the butt end of his whi p , and also him ( witness ) over the arms , which compelled him to let go the reins . The prisoner then dismounted , and he ( witness ) assisted by a brother officer took him into custody , and conveyed him to the station , and the unfortunate beast to the green yard . The horse was at this time bleeding much from a wound inflcted
under one of his eyes , and the marks of laceration under the flanks were plainly visible . The prisoner had been drinking , but know perfectly well what he was about . —A ' gentleman named Charles Wi-lden , of Coburg-road , Old Kent-road , having corroborated this witness s evidence , the prisoner , in defence , called Charles Nbedhaiu , the coachman of Captain Lino , whose evidence , however , was only to the effect , that he had known the prisoner but a short time . —Mr . Traill ( the magistrate ) said a more , atrocious case had never been brought before him , and he was very glad that by a recent act he was empowered for such misconduct and other offences to inflict imprisonment without directing the payment of a pecuniary penalty , and in the present case he felt himself fullv justified in

" Manchester , July S . —Cotton yarn has given way to the extent of Jd to Jd per lb . in price , with only a modtrau extent of business doing . The main cause of the dei-ltw is the continued indisposition of buyers to give ont ordrts at last quotations , believing that from the state of the cotton market and the abundant supply of the raw material , they can secure more favourable terms . Hoth spinners and manufacturers have- for several weeks pas : had a greater margin to turn upon than for a lousr time past , and have been able to support prices uotwitl . st .-oiilinc the decline of cotti-n from being well engaged to orilir , As prosMit contracts fall out . however , they find a difficulty in renewing them except at a reduction approximating to that in the raw materia ! , and the stand made h buyers to-day both for the home trade and export , liai been more effective than hitherto .
