      " The kite is in the eagle s nest . A prodigal son ot . France , a debauchee fresh from the " Hells" of London , 'who , with patriotic words upon hw lips and premeditated perjury in bis heart , had sought a shelter iu his country , and received a palace ; who had claimed but the rights of a ci £ : 2 en , and received the posvers of a president ; has used that palace to plot his country ' s shame , that power to obliterate the last traces of his " country's dear bought freedom . Words cannot measure his infamy ; a million deaths cannot expiate his crimes . Men read the bloody record of midnight murders , of slaughtered women , children , and grey-haired men ; of prisoners assassinated in their dungeons , heaped upon each other , until the deamon wore has driven the drunken executioners mad . Men read these things , and Mutter , "How losg , oh ! God , how long I Men read of barricades bniltbv solves , the snares laid for the

      -workmen , to enter which was to die .

France lives , gagged and manacled it is true , but she lives to redeem her honour to avenge her disgrace , and bo bear back the blessings of liberty into those countries in whose cabinets her chains were forged . les although the bastard descendant of stabbed his motherhas

      Xapoleon ( that son of liberty who ) been the base instrument of the thrice accursed conspiracy against the liberty and honour of France . It is in the cabinets of Russia , Austria , and Rome , that the plot was hatched , and the phn matured . In Vienna , in Rome , in Petersburg ?! , and J ' aples , ere the echoes of tbe murderous cannon's voica had died away in the streets of Paris , Raiser and Kine , Pope and Emperor , gave tnanks to THEIR GOU . " Their mortal foe was humbled ere the Wood of the victims bad ceased to flow ; the representatives of Britain , and the freeborn fools therein , had congratulated the Iiherticide . and joined in the thanksgiving for the

      TRIUMPH OF MURDER . Let ti e u rejoice , their triumph will be short-lived ; let the Jesuits drive the peasants to the poll ; let the oargcoite , goaded to the polling booth , vote their own defeat ; let themerchants sell their honour to purchase peace ; let the ever ready prefects manufacture fabulous lists of votes , ¦ which none dare to contradict . In Paris alone , ninetyseven thousand workmen , undeterred by threats , spies , chair * , deportation , or death , have registered their votes against the traitor , and their pronvse to revenge the treason . They h .. ve modestly (?) confessed that there are in France six hundred and forty thousand workmen , brave

      enough to dare all the terrors arrayed against them to record their protest and register their promise . Let them hold high jubilee over Europe prostrate , let them mock England , covered with sham-, the voice of America is heard already pleading for humanity outraged ; her thunders will eoon awaken the echoes on the shores of Europe ; her cannon , , oh ! sweet music for Italy and Hungary , will awaken not echoes alone ; but wherever the gag and the chain , the knout and the gallows , now labour to still the voice of freedom , the shoot of millions will respond to the reveiltee of the peoples ; the dcath-groans of their tyrants and betrayers will mingle in the sound .

      Are those words , those sentiments too strong , too sanguinary for your friends (?) the Moderates ? Ask them what would they substitute for those divine -words with which the people signalised the aim and end of their Revolution , amnestying their oppressors for the past , seeking for themselves but peace and happiness for the future . If they answer not , tell them that in the place of those words expunged by decree from the walls , the document ' , and the coins of France , there shall be written but one where there were three : instead of Liberty , Equality , Fraternity , they shall have JUSTICE ! For us , our , ambassadors inflicting disgrace and shame on the land which gave them birth—our " court intriguing with absolutist powers—our

      manufacturers ready to purchase peace at any price abroad , eo that they may more safely war against the industrious at home—it is for na to seek a unity of the peoples , the means of convincing the suffering nations of Europe that however diplomatists may intrigue in our name , however the government or the gold of England may aid usurpers , traitors , and tyrants , tbe workmen of Britain feel every blow struck against their brethren throughout Europe , and though warring at present after another fashion with capitalist tyrants , yet midst their struggle they pray for that time which must soon approach , wtien the workers of every nation shall join the holy crusade against the tyranny of crowned perjurers , and tbe supremacy of money over man .

      The Fraternal Democrats have hitherto centred the business of their society in tho metropolis . The position of continental Democracy demands a local and simultaneous action . Wo have , therefore , resolved , for the better propagation of intelligence concerning the movements of the European Democracy—for ensuring a good understanding between them and their brethren in this country—and thus yave the way for a great and united movement in favour Of the Universal , Democratic , and Social Republic : — 1 st . —" That the members of the Society of ' Fraternal Democrats , " resident in the provinces , shaU form themselves into localities , each locality to elect a district committee and sub-secretary . " 2 nd . — " That it shall be the duty of such sub-secretaries to correspond , at stated intervals , with the secretaries in London , sending to them any intelligence it may be in their power to communicate , and receiving in return the latest and most correct intelligence respecting continental movements . "

      3 rd . — " That the subscription to the Society shall be one penny per month , and an entrance fee of threepence for the card of membership . " 4 th . — " Tbat the sub-secretaries shall transmit , quarterly , to tbe secretaries in London , the balance-sheets of their respective districts , together with any funds that may remain after paying local expenses . " 5 th . — " That the whole of the funds placed at the disposal of the committee shall be devoted to the dissemination of intelligence concerning the state and prospects of Euro pean Democracy . Such knowledge to be communicated to the members , and the people generally , through any and every channel which the committee can make available for that purpose .

      The Patext Juciii.Ve House Shoe.—It Is R...

      The Patext JUciii . ve House Shoe . —It is rarely that so many qualifications are combined ia one mind as have been successfully employed in the invention of tho horse-shoe machine patented by our fellow-townsman , Dr ; Ilobson , the inventor . We had the pleasure of seeing the machine at work a few days ago , and without making pretence to technical acquaintance with the subject we must acknowledge both obvious advantages in the process and great heauty of operation . The iron is in bars rolled in a peculiar manner ; they are cut into suitable lengths , aud tbe superfluous parts cut off by machinery , and the ends of each piece rounded . Any harsh edges * left by the cutting machine are ground down , and the pieces are then put on a moving rack , which drops them one hy one at the mouth of

      the furnace , and they are carried gradually through the flame and r-idiating heat of the furnace without touching the coals . By a new movement , at the other end of tho furnace , the pieces are passed successively to the block or die , where each is bent and stamped by a very beautiful combined action of the machine , and the horse-shoe , perfectly shaped , drops into the trough to be cooled , The nail-holes are afterwards punched in the cold metal , and it is not necessary again to heat the shoe , so that the hardening effect of hammering ( or stamping ) is not lost . Tho advantages of tbe patent horseshoe machine , in addition to

      the economy of labour ( for the apparatus for heating and bending would turn out shoes for 150 or 200 horses in an hour ) are that the shoes are formed exactly to a predetermined shape , which can be varied , but always with certainty , to particular requirements . Dr . Ilobson insists » pon the advantages of a «• level tread " for the horse , and tbe patec * shoe is made to that purpose ( exceptional cases omitted ) . It is much lighter than the hand-made shoe , but in no respect inferior in strength ; and it is 80 formed that the nail heads are protected , and by this means and tbe support of the " clips " the liability to cast a shoe is diminished . — , faafa htcUigtietr .

      Bsjuhkablb Discovert . —Xo small d < g- « s of excitement was created on Saturday afternoon by the discovery of a body imbedded in the walls of St . Stephen ' s Chape / . While the workmen were chipping an old stone wall of the cbape ] , they came upon something rolled up in canvass , and , on partially uncovering it , a human form was disclosed in a perfect state of preservation . A wooden pastoral staff was found by its side , such as was carried by tbe mitred abbots of the olden time . The discovery created intense excitement , and hundreds of persons flocked to the spot . It may

      he remembered that the walls in which this interesting relic was- discovered form part of the chapel built by Richard II ., in 1398 , the money for the purpose having heen raised by a tax imposed on all foreigners then residing jn the kingdom . The body must-therefore bave been imbedded nearly 500 years . It was foucd in the wall of the crypt , under the high altar , where , in the old monasteries , were was generally to be found a small chapel , underneath Iraa ^ * ' pabHc charcn ' heburied in this position Ofa * marl £ ° f distinction , reserved for the founder . —

      Tee Com1mmw Bill, A Meeting For The Purp...

      TEE COM 1 MMW BILL , A meeting for the purpose of considering what this He form should consist of , was held on Tuesday evening , at the John-street Institution , Tottenham-court-road . Shortly after eight o ' clock . Mr . A . Wood was called to the chair , and opened the business in a neat address ,- in which he alluded to the conflict now being carried on between capital and labour . Mr . G . J . Harnbt moved the following resolution : — "This meeting believes the sovereignty of the people , and the full exercise of their political rights , to be the only means adequate for ensuring the social prosperity of the working classes , and regulating , on a just basis , the relations of capital and labour . " He perfectly agreed with the sentiments affirmed in the resolution . To judge of the

      merits of existing institutions , they had only to look around at society . Let them cast their eyes upon the agricultural labourers , and see them with their intellects uncultivated ; their moral and physical wants uncared for—mere serfs to their employers . If they looked tothe same class in the Scottish Isles , or in Ireland , the same result wag still more apparent . Miseryand oppression werefaatdepopulatingthose parts of the empire , and driving all who had the means to foreign lands . The land was the property of the whole people . The warriors of the Norman bastard had monopolised it to themselves ; but they were obliged to perform certain conditions in virtue of their holdings ; these conditions bad been neglected , aud they now claimed the tight to the land and the right to starve and expatriate those by whose aid they cultivated it . If they looked again at the miners—those

      men by whose aid their iron and coal mines became productive—by whose industry tbe wealth and prosperity of tbe country was so greatly enhanced , they would see injustice , misery , and oppression practised to the highest degree . These were but examples of asystem tbat pervaded the whole ranks of labour . Everywhere the rich appropriated to themselves the spoils of industry . It was only by political power that this state of things could he remedied . Trades' unions had produce ! good , but they were powerless against the influence of capital protected by law , whilst they were unprotected . The present law divided the people into two classes , sybarites and pariahs : the rich had the unlimited command of credit , tbe poor had no resource but to toil for what price the capitalist chose to concede . To his social friends he would say , never forget that your co-operative

      movements are unsafe so long as you remain political slaves . The government of this country had the same power to close their shops , and to put down their associations , ns tbe brigand Louis Napoleon had to put down the constitution in France ^ He did not say the government would do so , but they could at any time cripple and destroy them . . They would never be safe until they had not only the Suffrage , but every other provision of the Charter , by which the Suffrage could be guaranteed and maintained . The working men had more to dread from the power of capital , from the rule of the money lords , than from the rankest Tory of the olden time . Mr . Harney then went into an illustration of the various points of the Charter , aud concluded by advising them to call meetings in every town in the country , to express their opinion upon the

      provisions of tbe promised Reform Bill . He thought it impossible to have a convention at the present time . They needed not so much a head ( an Executive ) as they needed a body ; it was useless to have leaders if they had nobody to lead . Let them organise local bodies ; he cared not by what name they were called , whether Chartists , Democrats , or any other name , provided they maintained the principles embodied in the Charter . They talked of the divisions among the Chartists ; the same divisions existed among all tbe other classes of reformers . They must not be alarmed at these divisions ; they must begin again at the foundation . Strong local bodies would inevitably lead to a National Association , and though a sham national body was an injury to a movement , a real national organisation was the most important engine that democracy could employ . ' Mr . C . ISicnoLLs seconded tbe resolution , and said , he believed that the principles of the Charter were necessary , not only for the working classes , but for the happiness of

      the whole community . It was idlo holding meetings , unless tbey produced some results . Thoy would doubtless have a Reform Bill presented to them during the present sesjion , and it became them to state what this reform should be ; and further , to look back to the past as to the cause wby tbey had not become previously enfranchised , and judging by that to steer their course for the future . There were 40 , 000 linendraper ' s shopmen in London cut off from the political body , whom nothing but Universal Suffrage could ever emancipate . They must not neglect such men because they were not artisans or mechanics . Numerous classes were similarly situated , and , to ensure success , they must divest their movement of all class prejudice , and endeavour to become the sovereigns of their own passions , and then the sovereignty of the people would be speedily acknowledged . He looked upon Universal Suffrage as tho great principle , and the other points as mereadjunctstobe settled by future arrangements .

      Mr . C . Murray supported the resolution . There never was a time when unanimity was more needed . What government prosecution had failed to do , was now brought by dissentions among themselves , and by tho artful machinations of their opponents . This was a lamentable fact . The introduction of machinery and the progress of competition had eo reduced the condition of the working man , that political power could alone emancipate him , and restore him to his true position in society . They were told that the producer must be entirely ruled by the consumer Ha denied this doctrine . If carried out , it would lead to the death of the producer if the consumer needed not his existence . This was unfortunately tbe fact . He believed what Mr . O'Connor once asserted , that the rich consumers would rather see the people die , than pay increased poor

      rates for their support . They said that the present evils were the result of circumstances . It was so ; but they had the power of making these circumstances , and they must exercise this power ; unless they did they would fall into the hands of their monied oppressors in a similar manner to which they had done in France . It was ridiculous to say that our government dared not do this . The government had sho ? vn by the manner in which , in 1 S 4 S , they abolished the habeas corpus in Ireland , what they dared to do . In order to arouse the sympathies and feelings of the people , th < y must boldly advocate the social rights of the people . Co-operation was good , but without a change in our Legislative system , it was impossible that it could be effectually carried out . To render it successful they must have a complete change in the currency , and other laws affecting the

      rights of labour . ( The speaker was much cheered . ) Mr . Nottagk wished to speak , but the Chairman having announced that the Council had decided that no one could speak save those who had been appointed unless they moved an amendment , which announcement caused much disapprobation , moved as an amendment : — " That Cooperation was the best means of promoting Chartism . " They complained of the tyranny of the middle classes ; that they were the chief obstacles to working men obtaining their rights . Ho belonged to a society that had arisen owing to the tyranny of the masters . They now paid £ 50 a week in wages ; they lived in brotherhood together , and had no master to tyrannise over them . This he believed was the best means of obtaining the Charter . ( Cheers . ) He did not wish to move an amendment , but was compelled in order to speak .

      The amendment not being seconded , the resolution was put , and carried . Mr . E . Jokes moved the following resolution : — " This meetingbelievingthe People ' s Charter to be the only measure of Political Reform calculated to ensure the sovereignty of the people , pledges itself to agitate for no less a measure of political reform than that embodied in tbe above-named document , to adhere to the principles ( arid name ) of the Charter , and to prevent the Chartist Movement f-om being made a tool for class purposes in the hands of any other party . " They were anxious to obtain their rights , and they were willing to obtain them in any honourable way . If they were shown that they could only bo obtained by getting political power , they must go by that road if they wished for success . They were told that all things denended

      upon the laws of supply and demand , and that if thev withheld their labour from the market , the demand for it would rise , and tbey would thus better their social position . This would be true , if during the time they withheld their labour they could find the wherewith to eat . There was another class of reformers : the Co-operators , whom Mr . Nottage had so ably represented . He believed them to be honest , but mistaken . They could not compete with capital unless they also possessed capital . They were told that they could borrow capital from other sources . Let thfi , ro . f tsewiTe of this . There was such a thing as the Devil ' s gold , which burnt in the hand . If they borrowed money they would have to pay five per cent , interest for it . Whether trade was successful or not this interest must be paid , and thus they would be in the power of the gold of

      the landlords equally as they now wero in the power of the money lords . Lord John Russell had promised them a Reform Bill ; what it might be they knew not ; but this they knew , that Lord John Russell had been closetted some hours with Louis Napoleon prior to the coup d ' etat , and the present attempt at alarming the people by a talk of invasion was only an excuse for surrounding London with a camp of soldiers , and for calling out the militia . There was an idea growing up in favour of local associations ; he warned them against this idea . It would produce ruin b y creating divisions among them ; all coherence would be lost . In the present state of the movement it was necessary either to have a dictator or a Convention , in order to reorganise the movement . The days for a dictatorship were

      gone by . They must then have a Convention , and he implored them to wise the necessary funds for its support . Talk about accepting an instalment of their rights , why , the Charter itself was but an instalment . It only needed them to arouse their energies to change Chartism from a Wind Sampson illusing his strength , to an all-conquering Hercules cleaning out the Augean stable of a nations corruption , and raising up the standard of the people ' s rights . Mr . Weeoos seconded the resolution , and impressed upon them the necessity of continuing their organisation , showing the folly of mere local associations . Tho resolution was then carried unanimously . A vote of thanks was given to ' the chairman , and the meeting dispersed .

      The Elzctuc Teikgrafh . —It is in contemplation to extend the telegraphic communication from Holyhead to Dubiiu by means of the submarine telegraph , and , it is stated , that the same company which has executed the communication between England and France has offered to complete the electric intercourse with the sister island within a very reasonable period of time . The Austrian government has issued orders to its police to confiscate all copies of the "Daily News" found in the imperial dominions . Lord John Manners has declined the invitation of the influential Tory party of Liverpool to come forward , being pledged to bis constituents at Colchester .

      The Banbury Mubdeb. On Saturday The Inqu...

      THE BANBURY MUBDEB . On Saturday the inquiry into the circumstances of this dreadful affair was resumed by the magistrates at Banbury gaol . Au interpreter was in attendance by whom the depositions were translated to the prisoner Kalabergo . The following is the most important evidence as yet adduced : —• ' ¦ . . ' / Wm . Thompson , superintendent of the Banbury police , said , when told by Dr . Sandy of the murder , he proposed that tbey should go to the spot . Met Kalabergo ' s cart , attended by the witness Jane Saul . Saw the body . Should say that the wound causing death could not havo been inflicted by the deceased himself . There were no marks of violence upon the cart . On Monday the following witnesses were called : —

      Sarah and Louisa Egg , milliners , who occupied part of the deceased ' s house in Banbury , deposed to seeing the prisoner on Saturday night , immediately after he had given the alarm , and described his conduct upon that occasion . He was very agitated , and cried . He said , " Uncle—dead —dead ! " and made gestures from which witnesses gathered that he had been beaten and shot . Dr . Takdt and Police-superintendent Thompson repeated the facts stated by them before the magistrates . In the presence of these witnesses a piece of paper unstamped was found upon the body , dated two years back , purporting to be an acknowledgment for £ 500 , advanced by the deceased to W . B . Uilathorne , Catholic Bishop of Birmingham . Wh . Waikbr , Governor of tho gaol : On the night of Saturday , thelOth , went to Wilscot , where he received two hats and a eravet , the latter much stained with blood and gunpowder . On bearing the story of tbe prisoner , he thought it was bo improbable tbat he had him taken into

      custody . On Monday witness searched the stable , and in the roof found tha bullet-mould produced . Found the key of the deceased ' s cart , which the prisoner , when questioned , said he knew nothing of , in tho soil of the privy . On the following morning the stable was again searched , and a pistol bag containing powder , six bullets made of a white metal resembling solder , one leaden bullet , and seven tops of bullets cut off . Has fitted two of the most perfect white metal bullets to the mould , and they appear to have been cast in that mould , as they fit it exactly . The leaden bullet also fitted exactly . ' On the Wednesday witness again searched , and in a rubbish box , in a garret , found a piece of white metal and two pieces of solder . Has made diligent search at Wilscot-hi . il and grounds adjoining the spot where tbe murder occurred , but met with no success . On the Saturday , in the prisoner ' s waistcoat pocket , found some grains of gunpowder , and a turnpike-gate ticket , bearing the date of the murder , which proves that the parties had left Wilscot-gate together .

      Michael Phillips , watchmaker and working-jeweller , had been long in the employ of tbe deceased , and knew his habits . Asked the prisoner for the key of the cart on Saturday night by safmg , "Eey-cart-imlock i" He said , " Me no key—uncle key . " Was present when the privy was searched , and the missing key found . Remembers tv ? o or three lumber-boxes in the garret-passage . Has seen a bullet in the possession of Mr . Harris , surgeon , the bullets produced by Mr . Walker , and tbat by Mr . Burton , and they are all , in his belief , made of tbe selfsame metal , except the lead one produced by Mr . Walker . The seven pieces of white metal produced are doubtless the tops of the bullets cut off by the nippers . Those bullets and pieces are of the same metal , which he believes to be a compound of block-tin and lead . Should think tbey are made of an old teapot or spoons . On the night of Saturday , the 10 th , witness saw the prisoner leave the sitting-room twice . Once he went into the back kitchen , and the other time he saw

      him near the privy , though he cannot swear he went there . This was after witness asked him if be had the key . All the bullets are evidently made in the same mould . Thomas Waiiiss . assistant of Mr . Welch , gunmaker , Banbury . —On the 15 th of December a foreigner ( whom he has now recognised as the prisoner ) came to his master ' s shop and purchased a double-barrelled revolving pistol , some gunpowder and caps , and a bullet mould and bag . Showed the prisoner how to cast bullets and fire the pistol Made a leaden ballet in his presence . Never made bullets Of the kind of white metal now produced . Believes the powder wrapper produced by the governor of the gaol to be that in which he sold the powder . Sold him a quarter of a pound of powder . The paper produced by Burton witness received from the foreigner . ( It is in some foreign language but it cannot be deciphered ) . Witness recognised the bullet-mould and bag as property be had disposed of to the

      prisoner . After a very slight deliberation , the coroner ' s jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder " against Giovanni Brizilli Guilielmo Kalabergo , and on Tuesday the magistrates , on the same evidence before them , also committed tbe prisoner on the capital charge . The prisoner will take his trial at the next Oxfordshire assizes .

      A " Detective."—On Wednesday, The 5th Of...

      A " Detective . " —On Wednesday , the 5 th of November last , a man named John Anderson , foreman to Mr . Hutchinson , proprietor of the chemical works at Widness , was murdered on his way from the works to his own house iu Doblane . Immediately afterwards an application was made at the Liverpool police-office for an officer to institute inquiries , with a view to the discovery of the murder . With this object John Connolly , police-constable No . 460 , was sent over to the works , and with the view of eliciting information he disguised himself as a workman and made application for employment . He remained there as a labourer for six weeks , during which time he gained such information no led to the discovery of a person supposed to be guilty , and others implicated in the murder . A communication was then made to Mr . Allen , the head constable oi the district , and through his exertions three men were captured . Their names are John Shay , Thomas Nolan , and

      Darby Nolan , his father . The prisoners wer « brought before the magistrates at Prescot , and committed for trial at the next assizes . The Liverpool police-officer was known by the disguised name of "Jack Callag ban , " andjthe friends of the accused were rather surprised when they saw him in court , and giving evidence against them . One of the prisoners shouted ' . out , "Oh , that Jack Call & gh & n , how nice he has sucked us " in : he is a Liverpool police-officer . '" Some of the friends of the prisoner followed him into the street , and promised what they would do for him if they could lay hands upon him . John Nolan , another son of Darby Nolan , supposed to have been implicated in the murder , threw himself into the canal when he hoard of his father being committed to Kirkdale , and was drowned . It is said the conspiracy to murder the deceased and another foreman of the works was got up at a beerhouse . The wife of the murdered man has since died , and her daughter has been removed to Rainhill Lunatic Asylum .--liverpool Mail .

      A Canoidatb fob Transportation . —A man named Daudi-imout was on Saturday taken before the Tribunal of Correctional Police , on the charge of rupture de ban . The President asked why he had left the residence assigned to him ?— " I demand to be sent to Koukahiva , " said the prisoner . — * ' You do not reply to my question . "— " Oh , I beg pardon ; but I have got a cold . I quitted my residence to come to Paris . "— " You had no right to come to Paris . "" That is precisely why I came . But you must not suppose that I care about Paris , and I beg to be sent to Noukahiva . "— " Well , if you will not reply to me , hold your tongue . "— ' Yfhy did I come to Paris , you ask ? Because I saw a placard stuck up stating that those who might come to Paris , breaking their 6 on , should be sent to Africa ; I should prefer Noukahiva , but Africa let it be . What matter is it to me ? I am a good-for-nothing old hack ; I have

      been condemned twenty-aix times . Twenty-six ! Having so many condemnations on my back . I don ' t cai' 6 a straw for Trance . 1 prefer travelling . Send me to Africa , to Noukahiva , to Cayenne , to Calcutta , to Pekin , to Nankin , or wherever you will—I care not . Here , in France I only vegetate in prison , and is that a social position ? I am sixty-two years of age , and it is time for me to begin to think of settling down to something , else what will become of me when I am old ? You will do me a great pleasure in sending me to Noukahiva . " The Tribunal condemned the man to a year ' s imprisonment and five years' surveillance of the police . "More surveillance ! " cried the prisoner . " Wby I shall be under surveillance to the end of my days But at my age it is a bore . Come now , send me to Noukahiva .

      Mblancholt Disaster at Sea—The" Gibraltar Chronicle " of tbe 12 th inst . contains the following account cf a melancholy disaster at sea : — " Two sailors , ( John Dillon and William Smith ) , belonging to the British barque Sappho , Captain M'Douald , of and from Sunderland , with a cargo of guano , bound to Alexandria , arrived here on Friday last , and gave the following account : — 'The loss of the above vessel took place in a heavy squall , west of Capo St . Vincent , on the 20 th ult . She had scarcely capsized when she went down . Four of the crew took to the jolly boat ; the captain , his wife , the mate , and cabiu-boy to another ; but the carpenter and two others went down with the vessel . The four

      men made for the land , losing sight altogether of the other boat . They travelled night and day over mountains and through valleys without food , and two of them being unable to proceed were left in the fields in a dying state by Dillon and Smith , who arrived as above stated , in a most deplorable condition , after wandering full twenty days in a country to them unknown , and without shelter of any kind during the whole time . To this moment no further particulars have been received ; but it is to be hoped that the two men left behind will have been humanely treated if discovered , and that good tidings will reach the garrison relative to the safety of those who were in the other boat .

      Mansion House.-A Rowon'osawb.—Mr, Franci...

      MANSION HOUSE .-A Rowon'Osawb . —Mr , Francis Worrell Stephens , stockbroker , of tbe Royal Exchange Buildings , was . summoned by Mr . James Alfred Temple , sharebroker , also of the Royal Exchange Buildings . —Mr . Edward Hodgkinson , solicitor for tho complainant , said that Mr . Stephens was a member of the Stock Exchange , and Mr . Temple , one well known as a sharebroker in the ftCity . Some differences bad arisen between them upon monetary matters , and suits were instituted both in the Court of Exchequer and in the Lord Mayor ' s Court . Whilst Mr . Temp le was proceeding oil Saturday last , to see a member of the Stock Exchange , he met Mr . Stephens , who used the strongest expressions , of a most unwarrantable nature , calling him a thief , and other words to the same effect , but of such a kind that he trusted he should be excused from repeating them . This all occurred in the presence of three other gentlemen . Por this he sought protection . —

      Mr . Temple stated that all the offensive expressions which Mr . Stephens was represented to have uttered had been used . —Mr . Hodgkinson said , that since the occurrence of the offence he had , under Mr . Temple ' s instructions , written to Mr . Stephen to request a written apology , but so far from that being given the insult had been aggravated by repetit ion . —Sir John Key ask « d Mr . Stephens what reply he had to make to this statement ? Mr . Stephens admitted that he had used tbe epithet of "thief . " It was the custom of members of tho Stock Exchange to express themselves in strong terms respecting the characters of those parties who they conceived were likely to injure themselves or others . —Sir John Key to Mr . Temple : Were you ever convicted of "thieving ? " Mr . Temple ( with a laugh ) : No , never , sir . —Sir John Key required Mr . Stephens to enter into his own recognisance of £ 50 to keep the peace , and both parties left the court .

      GUILDHALL . —Novw . Fbaud . —Mr . Lake , a straw hatmaker , of Aldersgate-street , appeared before the sitting alderman to expose a novel mode of swindling , of which he had been the victim . At this time of tbe year tradespeople are sending in their accounts . Some parties watch the messengers , and as soon as they bave delivered their bills call at the house and ask for them back , under the plea of a mistake having been made in the accounts . By this means they obtain the invoice , and also the name of the tradesman by whom it has been sent . A few days since he sent his porter with a bill for £ 0 to Dr . Bennett , of Finsburysquare , and shortly afterwards a man called there and asked for the bill back again , as there was a mistake in it whioh

      should be corrected . He obtained the bill , and in the evening a man , dressed like a butler , called at Mr . Lake ' s house to pay Dr . Bennett ' s account , and producing a cheque for £ 1210 s ., drawn in that gentleman ' s favour on the Devon and Cornwall Banking Company , at Newton Abbott , and signed Richard Hayes , no difficulty was made in giving the balance to him . The cheque was presented in due form , when it was returned from the manager of the banking company , stating that no such person had an account there , and that only a short time since another cheque , signed by the same party , had been presented there . —Mr . Lane was advised to give information to the police , and endeavour to trace tbe man who had brought him the cheque .

      Embezxlembnt . — William Morgan , an artificial flower maker , was brought before Mr . Alderman Wilson , charged with embezzling the sun of £ 6 17 s ., the money of his master . The prisoner was committed for trial . LAMBETH . —A Hoxoaht Policeman . — George Rem . mington , a constable belonging to the Walworth division of police , attended by order of the commissioners , to answer the following complaint : —Mr . Thomas John Seabrooke , of 7 , Lacy-t « rrace , Penton-place , Walworth , deposed that on Sunday , the 4 th instant his family had a loin of roast pork for dinner , and after supper tho joint was placed in a safe in the front area .. On the following morning the safe was found open and a considerable portion of tha pork gone . On the Tuesday following a boiled rabbit whioh was left was placed in the same safe , and on Wednesday

      morning the safe was again found open , and the rabbit partly devoured . —Mr . Norton : Was it your opinion that the cats got to tbe safe on both occasions ? Witness : It was , your worship , though I was somewhat puzzled as to how they could get at the safe , particularly after the flrst time , as I had tightened the button or fastening . On the morning of that d ay week himself and his wife had been awoke at about a quarter to three o'clock , and they both exclaimed almost at the same moment , " There are those troublesome cats again , " and he got out of bed for the purpose of surprising them . Ho went forth , armed with a good stick , and on reaching the kitchen and pulling aside tbe window curtain to catch a sight of tbe safe , he was not a little surprised to see a policeman standing in front , with his bull'seye turned on , an ' d be had evidently been helping himself

      from the eatables . It was also quite clear to him ( witness , ) that the constable must bave caught instant sight of him , for he immediately hurried up the area steps , and ran towards the Kennington-road . —Mr . Norton : From the view you had of tho man , are you sure he was a police constable ? I am quite certain of that , your worship , though I had not the opportunity of seeing his number . —Mr . Norton : Then are you enabled to say the defendant is the man ? Witness : I should not like to go the length of swearing positively to his being the person , as I had not an opportunity , in the hurry of the moment , to observe his number nor his features ; but I have no moral doubt he is the man . —Mr . Norton ; Had the area gate been locked ? Witness : It has not been latterly , as the key has been lost . The complainant not being able to identify tbe accused , the case was dismised .

      MARLBOROUGII-STREET . - Singular Charge of Conspiracy—Henry Adams , a pugilist , was brought up charged with having conspired with other persons not in custody , to defraud James Jackson , landlord of the King ' s Head , King-street , Park-lane , of £ 34 10 s ., under very singular circumstances . The case had the effect of attracting to the court a great concourse of that class of men known as connected with the lower grades of the " Fancy . "—The circumstances detailed called forth much merriment , from , the way in which the complainant , a Yorkshireman , described the plan by which he was taken in , and which was as follows : —The prisoner called on tbe prosecutor , who was an acquaintance , and told bjrri hehad obtained the patronage of a gentleman who had lately come into between £ 3 , 000 and and £ 4 , 000 , and who wished to take some lessons in the art

      of self-defence . As the gentleman would pay liberally for accommodation , and order a bottle of wine at each lesson , it might be worth the prosecutor ' s while to find them a room . Prosecutor agreed to do so , and the prisoner and the gentleman came , and had a sparring bout . At tbe second or third visit the gentleman brought two friends ; and , while the sparring lesson went on , a challenge was given to one of the friends to fight with the gloves the prisoner , £ 10 to £ SQ . The friend asked the prosecutor to put down the money for him . The prosecutor did so , and the match was made . All parties adjourned to a public-house in Cumberlandmarket , where there was a larger room . The fight commenced , and before it was concluded , prosecutor was induced

      to put down £ 25 10 s . more , making £ 3 i 10 s . for the friend who was glove fighting with the prisoner . The money was taken up by the other friend . The prosecutor seeing that the combatants were only shamming and fouling , demanded the return of his money , on the plea that the whole affair was a robbery . He was threatened with chastisement by some of the party , but he would not give up kisdemand , and after following the party into a public-house in Lamb ' s Conduitstreet , and seeing them leave him one after the other , be prevented the prisoner from following the same road by giving him into custody . —The defence set up was , that the prosecutor betted on his own account , and that he lost his money fairly . —Remanded .

      Charge or Indecenci against a 'Gentiehan . ' — Hewitt Bridgeman , who was described on the police sheet us a gentleman , of No . 4 , Northumberland-court , Charing-crosg , wva brought liefore Mr . Bingham charged with having conducted himself in an indecent manner in an omnibus towards Julia Harnett , —The comvlavnawt said she was the wife of Lyon Barr . ett , vag-merchant , No . 5 , Gibson-street , Waterloo-road , About nine o ' clock on Sunday evening shegotintoaNotting-hill omnibus with her husband . " luevc were only two vacant seats in the omnibus . Her husband took tbe first , and she was obliged to go to the further end of the omnibus to get accommodation . She had much trouble in effecting her object on account of the manner in which the defendant placed bis knees . As she was about to sit down the defendant made use of an indecent remark . Ihe defendant said to her , pointing to her husband , ' Do you know that fellow . I should like to know you much better . The defendant , as soon as she was seated , placed his hand on herperson in an indelicate manner . She gave his hand a push , but she unable to

      was change iter seat in consequence of the omnibus being full . A passenger , however , having got out , » he quitted her seat and went near her husband . Her husband , who had partly witnessed her uneasiness , asked her why she pushed that gentleman . She then told him all that had occurred . — Lyon Barnett said , as soon as he was made acquainted with the defendant ' s conduct he said to him , ' Had you been a young man I would have given you a good thrashing . ' The defendant turned round to witness's wife and said , ' Have I insulted you V Mrs . Bavnctt replied , ' Yes , you did , most grossly , ' When they got out of the amnibus witness gave tho defendant in charge . —Captain Henchy , a friend of the defendant , mentioned that the defendant wasa county magistrate of very old standing , and that he had had a scat in l ' ar-Iiament up to last year . —The defendant denied the charge and said the statements of the witnesses were a tissue of untruths . —Mr , Bingham said he must send the case to the sessions , but would take bail . —Two sureties of £ 100 each were produced and tiic defendant was hnerated .
