DJB ^ 'ntUCT-. VE llAIL STORM . ' S'mie p . irtions of La < iC i > hire were visited with a -r .-rm on Satnrd it « -v .- / iinif last , which though of short dur-ifon , w .-fs fearfully violent , and destroyed i jT'io . i d-:. l of prupertv . It appears to have come fr . im St . ftL . or « es Chaiinfl . and " to have passed over Holyhead , Cheater , and Birkenhead in its course , it --H of which p bn-Mi travellers speak of its violence -tr . e < rly periods of t'i « . tfternoon . It reached the uoig hhourhooil of Manchester between seven and sijjht ••' clock in the evening , but- the town felt comonr itively little of its forei . The main fury of the •• kment * seems to have ft'len upon the villages and
rowii-i sKirtmg the Cheshire border of the county—Ciic-i'tle . DMshury , Levvnttutme , Gorton , Denton , DrovUdmi , Pairrield , Ashton , Oldham , Middleton , and Rocfid . iIe . The commingling of the elements * n fearfully grand , though terrific . Alasses ol ' iD'ivy dark c ' ouds loomed in the western horizon Uw 2 h « fore thi ; Sturm Actually burst forth , and liirhtniiiir darted fro'a them in such rapid flashes , hat it appealed t « spread through the atmosphere l ke waves of vivid ll une . There was hot a breath < if wind stirring at this time , and the sultriness was flaw-it intolerable . A few hpacy drops of rain -crinkled the earthand canelike an truant cour
rwr to a « tK . nme the ne : ir approach of the storm . Mor « vivid flushes of li ghtning , and peals of thunder like distant artillery Thou came the elements fcigetlier in a general burst , as if they would bear down , tear up , or destroy wrytlring in their course , flail , rain , thunder , lightning , and wind—all com'rmig liiinr in t « m' 6 < : conibmation—brewed a storm mic ' i as is seldom witnessed . The wind blew in fearful gusts and the hail feli iu masses which rend «» re ! it uuu > ually destructive . At Gorton , about a mil- < r *» m ihe cetebrated Morrayianestahlishment "f Fairfield , the windows of -: lift cctten-mill of Mr . . fohn Rylands , on the western front were struck with such violence hy tin * hail , that upwards of 500 y qaare . s of glass were broken . A gentleman who
>» Kn"s . « ed the > torm here , says that rhe bail fell in ba ' -ls which were generally as lavje or larger than hize'n'its , and many of them were nearly as large as walnuts . Though most of tho hailstones were of a . roundish form , many of them were mere flattened ro ' ecoH of ice , more like the squares of ivory used fV-r dice . Several of those which were gathered , up by some other parties were measured , » pd varied from three-fourths to seren-eiuhts bi aninch in breadth . No wonder that ihey proved so destructive to the gl ; is- < with whu-K they came in contact . At Drnylsden , between Gorton and Fairfield , they were vet more destructive . The windows of . the Catholic chapel were struck by them , and nearly 200 square . * of glass were de-siroved in them . Great
number . * of the cottages of the poor were struck at the same time by the storm , and the windo ws were cmnpletel v riddled by the hailstones . 2 feariy all the cotton-milts , hoth in Droylesden and Fairfield , and many of the houses « utfere . l mwe or less . Strange to sav , one of the mills , apparently most exposed , had but , few windows broken . Tin ? was tbe mill of the late Mr . Ollerenshaw , now in the hands of his executors ; bnt the windows « f two small cotta « es belonging to the sane estate , and near to the mill , had no leas than eiahty-nine squares of glass in them broken . The windows of Messrs . Christys ' mill suffered a good deal , and those of Messrs . Lees' mill to some extent . The bands employed in Mr . Christy ' s mill , or many of them , occupy
cottage houses near the premises , in Queen-street , andthewiiidowsofthe . se were so riddled by the hail that upwards of 200 squares of g lass were destroyed . Tho greitest sufferers in this neighbourhoo 1 from the storm , however , are Me . -srs . Wortbi .-igfcm and Benson , spinners ami manufaeturers , m whm > o mill , according to tho statement of a member of the firm , upwaidsof 1 , 000 squares of glass were broken . Some of the cotton mills at Stockport suffered a good deal . The windows ofthe mill belonging to Messrs . . Tames M-ir .- > hall and Sons , were a good deal broken , and tunny of the windows in Mr . Marshall ' s private house were knocked in . In the Sunday-suhool at J 5 ve ! eigh , between Stockport and Uazlgrftve , scarcely a square of glass in the windows was left entire . In Ueatin-lane ,
Stockport , such was the force of tho storm that shops had to be closed , and a draper suffered severe loss from the breaking of hi * windows ad injury to his goods . Hail stones were picked up in the marketplace , and on the casele-hil ! , as large as pigeons ' I'tr . rs . The sterol was severely felt at Sliddleton , Radc ' . iffe-bridi-e , and Bury . At Ridcliffe-bridgea hnr-: c » • - ! - ! killed by li / htn ' iug , and an infant iu its mother ' s arms was struck by tht * electric fluid at Bury , and killed . The mother escaped with scorched neck and arms . Some la'ge poplar trees were torn up by the roots in Alkringron-wood , near Middleton , and a good deal of property was destroyed in that neighbourhood . Further in this direction , at Rochdale , Littlehorough , and the Vale
of Todmordeti , the bail storm was n > t so heavy , but much damage was dune by the floods which succeeded the heavy fall of rain . At Moses-gate railway stmion , near Farawortb , B » lton , a beer-house belonging to a man named Smith was set on fire by the lightning , but theflimcs were extinguished without any great damage . Another house at the mine plaee"W . - « s struck by the electric fluid , and injured . At Newton . ne ; . r Manchester , where . Sho / iterVbrook and ihe Bluebatton-brook form a junction , a nno < ber of collages were flooded ; and at a beer-house kept by Mr . G iggs several barrels of ale were stove in , a pig and ' p ig-cote carried away , aud other damage Was done , inflicting a loss of upwards of £ 10 .
Very considerable damage was caused by the storm tn the neighbourhood of Oldham , and several persons were severely injured , a . though no one was kille'L At the house of Mr . Richard Evans , the proprietor of soaie extensive collieries of Royton , the d'im- 'ge suafciined could not amount to less than £ 20 i > . The whole of the roof of the back part of the house , and those of some outbuildings , were completely stripped off by the wind , and some very viluuble furniture , destroyed , including a mirror of £ 50 value . A large chimney at the colliery was blown entirely down . Two cottages belonging to the wiine gentleman , sustainad damage to the amount of £ 6 . A bam belonging to Mr . Thomas Piatt , farmer , at Crompton , near Oldham , was
blown entirely down . The loss in this case was about £ 40 . Part of the roof of another barn at tbe same place , belonging to Sir . William Taylor , was also blown off . the damage amounting to £ 10 . On the road between Oldham and Middleton , in the township of Chadderon , the gable end of a newlybmlt cottage was entirely blo »« down , and part of tbe roof carried away . The wall fell upon some boys , who were standing near it , inflicting very severe injuries . One of them , named Joseph Williamson , eighteen years of ace , bad both arms and his jawbone fractured , nearly all bis teeth being knocked out . William To « usenti , James Ogden , Peter Holt , and Joseph Scott—all young men from eighteen to twenty years of age—also sustained
fractures of the legs and anus . Another small cottage close by was blown entirely down . Nine other cottages at this place were much damaged about the roof and windows ; the root and chimneys of one of them were carried away together , and the glass aud framework of one . of the windows were entirely destroyed . The total amount of damage sustained by the cottages in Cbadderton is estimated at nearly £ 200 . In Cbadderton park tbe ground was torn up in many places , and 140 trees were blown down . In the township of Tome eighty other trees were similarly destroyed . At Warrington a . house was set ou fire by lightning , and the engines were called out , but the flames were fortunately extinguished without much damage being done . A person named lbbetson was sitting in his shop in Sal'ord , when the lightning struck one of tbe windows , and smashed a pane of plate glass ,
four feet by two . He utmself was stunned , and was unable to speak for upwards of two hours . He is now perfectly recovered . There is a rumour that two persons were killed at Ghorlton-cum-Hardy , but we have not been able to trace it to any authentic source . Following tbe course of the storm from Holyhead into Yorkshire , the wire coils of at least twenty-five of the telegraphic instruments were completely fused . In Rochdale six cottages in course of erection were washed away by the flood , and carried to the gasworks ' , which were at once stopped from working . The loose sand and earth got into the siphon which communicates between the purifier aud condenser . At Mills-hill , near Middleton , a barn was completely blown down , and some stabling much injured . A servant girl was struck by lightning at Rochdale , and lay insensible for several hours afterwards .

Two 1 JE 5 Dsowxsd w s Fjoht jjt Sxa . — On Saturday morning last a fatal affray took place on board a steam tug , tbe Queen , belonging to North Shields , as she was running along the . Durham coast . The vessel left the Tyne early in the morning , with a crew of three hands on board , for the purpose of looking , out for ships to fetch into port and had been to sea some hour * , when a difference took place between the engim > man and the fireman with , regard to the stoking of the vessel . They quarrelled first with . their tongues and then took to ' blows . They first commenced to fight forward in the vessel , and were with some difficulty separated h v . the steewman ; . he had > carceiy got back to

• CLERKENWELL .-Givixo K Fame Cuabacter . —A Barman , employed at . the Queen ' s Arins Butte Bridge , was charged by Mr , James , landlord of the Wheutslieaf , Edgeware-road , wit'i bavin * given a false character to a servant . —Mr . James saw an advertisement in a morning paper , stating that a young m . n wanted a situation as barman , and referring to the Queen ' s Arms for his character On applying there Mr . James saw the defendant ' who gave tho man an excellent character , and falsely representing himself as being the landlord of tho house , and that the advertiser had been in his service seven ' or eight months , and had kft six weeks ago in consequence of his not being able to give him sufficient wages , complainant- received him into
his service , and after remaining in it fifteen days . he mot wiili an accident , and complainant had reasons to justify his suspicions that tho defendant had given a false character ; and on making inquiries he ascertained that he was not the landlord of the Queen ' s Arms , and that the party whom be had recommended had never been engaged to serve in that establishment . —It was alleaed tor the defence that the defendant had been in the beer trade arid that the young man whom he recommended to Mr . James bad formerly been in his service , and had felt himself warranted in giving him the character he had givr-n him . — . Mr . Combe decided on convicting the defendant in the mitigated penalty of £ 10 and the costs , tho extreme penalty being £ 20 . Si . vgcur Case . —Mr . Loyell , one of the
overseers , and Cover , an assistant overseer , of St . Andrew's , Holborn , applied to Mr , Combe for advice and assistance under the following circumstances . —They stated tbat the inhabitants of Southampton-buildings , Holborn , bad made complaints to the parish officers of an abominable stench which emanated from a house , Ko . 39 , Southampton-buildings , in conbequence of a party refusing to remove a dead boiiy . On inquiries being instituted by the overseers , it was ascertained that some time ago the wife of a man , a law writer died ; her death was duly registered , and her remains were deposited in a coffin , atidbecame so decomposed that it was a nuisance to the whole
ofthe neighbourhood , especially to those who were inmates of the house , Application had been made to the husband , but he refused to bury the body or toaccedo to the request of tbe parish officers for them to bury it , and unless it was immediately removed aud interred the consequences might prove highly dangerous , if not fatal . They suggested that he ( Mr . Combe } should issue his order to tho parish authorities for the removal and interment of tho remains of the deceased instsnter . —Mr . Combe inquired what object tbe husband could have in keeping the body of deceased above ground in such a state of decomposition . — Mr . Lovcll said he believed the want of means was
the cause . —Mr . Combe remarked that he was not empowered to grant an order . It was extremely dangerous , especially in such weather as the presebt , to keep a corpse in such a state as that described above ground ; it might lead to great immediate mischief . He thought it would be well , if the husband would not give his consent to bury the body , for them to go and take it to the dead-house , aud leave the husband to his remedy . —Mr . Lovell : Is that your order , your worship ?—Mr . Combe ; No ; but it is ( vli . 'it I should recommend ; that is what I should do myself under the circumstances , and I think there would be no danger for you to do
so . However , I will allow Mr . liayless , the chief usher of the court , to accompany you to the house , and remonstrate with the husband on the impropriety and dancer of such a proceeding , which might , have the desired effect . —Mr , Bayless accordingly went with Mr . Lovell and Mr . Cover , and when he ( Mr . Bayless ) subsequently returned , he informed Mr . Combe that they had had an interview with the husband , who , after a short consultation , allowed the mortal remains of his wife to be removed to the dead-house of St . Andrew's Holborn , where they were deposited prior to interment in the churchyard .
MANSION-HOUSE . —Excise Information . —The conductor of an omnibus was charged by the solicitor to the Excise with having taken passengers into his carriage , and driven into the City from the West End without having plates in tho same . The driver and conductor are in cases of the kind considered to be both liable to heavy penalties under the 5 and 6 Tic . Mr . Lewis , of Ely-place , appeared for the defendant . —G . W . Shaw , officer of excise , said : At four in the afternoon , I saw the defendant driving an omnibus which had no plates . The vehicle was full inside , and there were nine or ten outside . He went along a devious route , through Leicester-square , Long-fane , Drury-lanc , Wychstreet , and Temple-bar , to Cbeapside , and be plied for passengers all the way . I went into tbe on >
nibus and paid sixpence . —Mr . Lewis admitted that the plates were not exhibited , but said tbat he could show that tbeir absence was caused by mere accident , and there had been upon the part of the defendant no intention to evade the duty , or to violate tbe law for any purpose whatever . —A coachman , who bad driven the omnibus on tbe day before that on which the complaint was made , said as he was driving along on tbe former day he observed that one ofthe horses had a wound upon it which rendered it unfif for such work , and he accordingly unharnessed it and sent it home to the depot , at the same time removing the plates from the omnibus , to show tbat he could not take any passengers ; that next day , by the merest accident , aud in the
immense hurry of business arising from the Great Exhibition , he had forgotten to put in the plates , and happened to coma iu the way of tin excise officer , who finding that there was an oversight upon tbe part of the servants of the omnibus proprietor was determined to prosecute thc case . — Mr . Bateman ( from the office of the Solicitor to the Excise ) submitted that all that was necessary was to prove the violation of the act of parliament , and that had been distinctly proved . —Mr . Lewis submitted tbat a magistrate , in convicting under such -circumstances , would decide in opposition to the spirit and meaning of the act altogether , which never was made to punish an accidental omission . — Mr . Bateman said if excusts
were to be allowed in such cases , there would be plenty at hand upon all occasions . If the magistrates were to listen to such apologies for missing plates , as that they had been lost and stolen , why they would be lost and stolen every day , and there would be no use of an act of parliament at all upon the subject . —The Lord Mayor : No doubt of it . I convict the defendant in the penalty of £ 10 . He may , if he pleases petition the Board of Excise in mitigation , but I have nothing to do with that part of the question . —The defendant requested to be allowed to go out and procure the £ 10 , but the Lord Mayor said it was his duty to seethe penalty paid or to sentence the defendant to imprisonment for three months . He wished all persons connected with omnibuses to be very cautious in attending to
the acts by which tbeir carriages aro regulated , as he and his brother magistrates had determined to let no case which might be proved before them escape with impunity . —The defendant paid the £ 10 penalty , and said he should petition the Board of Excise in mitigation . GUILDHALL . —BtraotAHr . —Isaac Solomons was charged with being unlawfully in possession' of various articles of silver plate alleged to have been stolen , —James Charles Walker said : I am an apprentice to Mr . Sin ell , the gold and silver refiner , of Barbican . On Monday morning the prisoner called at our shop , and , without saying a word to any one , he put into the scale the property produced . Having received information that a bur . glary had been committed in a house in
Broad-8 treet-mj » ld )» g 3 on the previous night , I informed > lr . Sirrell of the circumstances , and he advised me to call in a constable and give prisoner into custody . I went to the door for that purpose , when prisoner , divining my object , rushed past me into the street , and tried to make his escape , but finding I pursued him he turned round , and returned with me to the shop . I compared the articles with those described in the information and found they tallied in every respect . When the prisoner was first stopped he clasped his bands and said , "Oh pray don ' t . " Ho did not ask any price for them , but they would not have been- worth much more
than 10 s . as old silver . I have known prisoner as a customer at our shop .-r-Alderman JFarebrother : To buy ? Witness : No , sir , he brought us old silver to eell .--Mr . Jenkin Elwin , 20 , Broad . streetbuildings , surgeon , said : The articles produced , consisting of a pair of sugar tongs , broken , a caddy spoon , ' a thimble , a silver caustic holder and the top of a smelling bottle , are my property . On Sunday night , at a late hour , my house was broken into by some parties , and the above things taken from various desks and drawers . Prisoner said he Itought the articles of an old man whom he met in Devonshire-square . —Remanded .
EMBEizMMBKi . —Lewis John Jones , clerk to Mr . Huddlestoue , the barrister , was placed at the bar before Alderman Farebrother for further examination relative to the charge of receiving and embezzling various sums , the monies of his ' employer . Further evidence was then taken to obtain an adjournment ' of the case , and prisoner was remanded for a few days to bring witnesses from Gravesend . Narrow Escapb of ; the Gaolkr . —About a quarter-past fear on Monday afternoon , and shortly after the business of the court was terminated , and the magistrates had departed , the clerks and
officers in the justice room were alarmed by hearing a frightful crash in the gaoler ' s room adjoining the court . The noise resembled more tbe explosion from a gun or pistol than anything else . One of the gentlemen seeing a cloud of smoke proceeding from tbe room ran immediately for the assistance of a constable , ' being under the apprehension that it was an attempt to rescue some of the prisoners tbat are usually temporarily confined in the cells beneath . But on ' arrivirr ' g at the scene of'tho srip-i posed attack it was found that the report iarose from the whole of the ceiling of the gaoler ' s room

f-illin " with ono simultaneous crash upon the wooden flooring below . Fortunately the gaol « -t h -id quitted the room only a few minutes previou s , or the consequence must have been exceediniilv ' dangerous , if not-fatal . . MARLBOROUGH STREET . -Amurr w Commit Suicide . —Jemima Uusted , aged eighceen was charged wilh attempting to commit suicide " by throwing herself . into : the Serpentine Hy de-park . — Inspector Brandsford stited that about half-past ten on Saturday ' night lie was standing on the north- b « nk of the Serpentine in company with a sergeant ,, when he saw some person come by tho waterside and sit ou one of the benches , In about a minute after he saw
that the person had disappeared . This excited bin sus picions , and on going to tlie spot he iounil . a shawl and bonnet lying on the seat , and on looking into the river he saw a dark mass floating on the top oftheiwaterV He rushed into the river , ami , . ^ ter considerable difficulty , succeeded m getting hold of the prisoner , and bore , her to shore in a state of insensibility , and as he had no assistance immediately at hand , cut open her dress . A police corueant shortly camo fo his aid , and the pn on .-r was taken to the Human e , Somety s receiving house , whence she was removed to the workhouse . —The prisoner , who refu-ed to assign any cause for attempting suicide , ^« s renwndeu for the attendance of . her parents , who reside in the country .
The Ciiaboe of Fuhious DniviKO . —1 lie adjounieil case of damage and endangering life by wilful negligence , on the part of the driver of one of Hansom ' s cabs , in which a j-einlemiin named M'Garel , residing in Witupole-strcet , was the complainant , came on Monday befo- e Mr Bingham . — The charge , which has already appeared , was to the effect tbat while Mr . M'Garel was proceeding along Park-lane in his brougham the carriage was knocked over , his coachman had his arm and collar bone broken , his own life was in daiiyer for some time , and considerable damage was » Iso dune to the brougham and horse . —The defence was that the driver of the cab , finding-his horse had shied at something in Park-lane , and that he had no control
over him , and called out to the complainant > coachman to get out of the way . —The evidence brought by Mr . M'Garel , in addition to the pre vtousevidence , was that of two police constables , who stated that they heard the defendant call out as if his horse had become unmanageable , aiid thai they bad seen tbe defendant driving the same horse many times afterwards , and tbat tbe animal appeared to be a quiet one . —On the part of the driver a gentleman came forward , who said he was in the cab at the time . The horse was at first going steadily , but when iu Park-lane the driver appeared to have lost control over it , and to be doing his best to pull up , at the same dim ; calling out loudly to warn people in the street . —Mr . Bingham said ho could not resist the force of the evidence , which
clearly proved that a horse generally quiet bad suddenly taken fright and had become ungovernable . The mischief that had occurred was the result of an accident , for whieh the defendant could not be held legally accountable , and he must therefore dismiss the case . —Mr . M'Garel wished to know whether he was wholly without redress for the loss of his coachman ' s services and for the damage done to his property ? And was tbe coachman , whose arm and collar-bone had been broken , aiso without the means of obtaimngrecompense ?—Mr . Bingham was of opinion that the only ground on which redress could be sought was that the horse in the cab was not a quiet but a vicious animal , and unfit to be driven iu the public street . If this were proved he had no doubt the county court would give ample damages .
Kobdery at the Cutstal Palace . —Charles Forn , a young Frenci . man , was drought before Mri Bingham , charged with abstracting from various stands at the Exhibition in Hyde-park numerous small articles consisting Of portions of wool , cotton , whear , coal , and stone . —Police-constable Clarke stated he was on duty at the Exhibition , and was directed by Inspector Pearce to watch the movements of the prisoner . He saw the prisoner go to ' sever . il departments , amongst which was the wheat department in tbe South Gallery . Witness saw the prisoner remove a glass shade which covered some specimens of wheat aiid take a portion . The prisoner w nt to a bag of wheat , and took out a handful . which he put into his pueket . The prisoner
went to the French department and looked at some silk handkerchiefs and other articles , but did not take anything . The prisoner then went to the Amer'can department , and from a stalk of Indian coin took a grain . The prisoner went to some cotton bales and some wool bales and took portions whicn he put into his pocket . The prisoner went out of the building , and witness told him to come back . The prisoner said j-otue words , but witness could only make out that he was a jeweller . The prisoner bad a piece of red ribbon in his coat , which was the distinctive mark of jewellers at the Exhibition . —Witness obliged the prisoner to go buck , and the prisoner made an effort to get rid ol the piece of red ribbon . Witness searched him , and found in his pockets , beudt-s the articles above enumerated , small pieces of stone and coal , evidently taken from specimens in tho Exhibitinn . The
quantity of grain found upon him was about half-apint . There were about two ounces of cotton , and au ounce of wool . The quantity could not-have been turned to any pecuniary account . —The prisoner stated tbat he was a student . He had no intention of stealing tbo articles found upon him . He had only taken small pieces by way ol specimens , not thinking there was any harm in so doing , aud not having ai . y idea of making a property of them . —Mr . Bingham said it appeared that the articles produced were of an insignificant nature , of no real value , and could not ho turned into money . It appeared to him tbat it was probable tbe prisoner was actuated by a foolish desire to procure specimens of the articles exhibited ; that be thought tbey were of trivial value ; and that he did not take them animo furandi with intent to commit a felony , lie thought , therefore , tho case might be disposed of by sending the pr s < mer to prison for six weeks .
MAltYLEBONE . — RoBBioiy . — Benj . min Lawrence , ajied sixteen , and John Jones , ajied fifteen , were charged with having stolen property of different descriptions to the value of more than £ 100 , belonging to Major Morse Cooper . —From a preliminary statement made by Miss Walter , 9 , Devonaljiro-pl . ee , it appeared that the prisoner Lawrence had lived as groom in Mrs .

I received information that a robhory had been committed , and on my going into the room , or loft , as it might be termed , I found ibat a number of boxesand drawers bad been
broken open and most of them were nearly empty ; they had evidently been forced by means of a chisel . —Sergeant Bstttersby said : About the . 20 th of May I received information of the robbery , and that Lawrence had absconded from his situation , I sought for him for some time without success , and I ascertained that Jones had been in his company several times . I at last found out that he was living as groom to the Marquis of Ely , whose stables are in Lyall-mews , Belgravesquare . I there took him into custody , and on my telling bim the nature of the charge he said , " I knew there was a bundle of things tied up and fit to be carried away ; but I told Ben ( Lawrence ) that if be did riot put the things back I should tell mistress . " Witness , in continuation said—I afterwards heard that the prisoners arid two others had
sold some things to a Jew in Iloundsditch ; tbat Jew I saw , and he told me he had bought some articles of wearing apparel in Devonshire-mews , all of which he had since sold . —Spicer , 47 V : On Monday evening 1 took into custod y the prisoner Lawrence , whom I saw passing along the road at Clapham-riee . I bad previously a description of him . On laying hold of him . I said , " Ben , 1 want you ' , you mustgo along with me , for you have absconded from your service , and a great deal of property has been stolen . " In reply he said , '»» I didn't steal tbe things ; some other boys did , and sold them for 4 * . 1 had Is . for myself out ofthe money .

Major Morae " Cooper , but had , through a bargain effected by a Jew , come into tbe possession . of an actpr at the Surrey . Theatre . The parly who purchased them was not present . —Remanded .

The prisoner was questioned upon the subject , and at hrsfdehied all knowled ge of it ; but subsequently on being closel y taxed with it , said that a person came whom she let in and permitted to take the property .

Walker ' s suspicions were aroused , and looking down the street she saw Covrigan , and immediately recognised her as tho well-dressed person who hid given Kenny a most undeniable character , at . d immediately gave her into custody , although Corrigan at first d .-nied her identity . Pare of the stolen property was found in the possession of Kenny ; and upon the female searcher at the police-sintien eXitininiiigtlio person
of Corrigan , some mureot the missing articles were found , with duplicates relating to other portions of the property which Corrigan urged the searcher to conceal ; but finding she w iild not consent , said , they at any rite eould not uharae lier vvitti stealing it , wh itever they niijtt't , « o with respect to receiving it ..

Clarke , box keener ofthe Victoria ' Theatre , . o tn ted that oti the preceding night , while in the box lobby of ihe theatre , his attention was drawn to r . b » complainant , who was sitting be ! ween the prisoner anil a female in the saloon . The complainant appeared to have I'eeii drinking , and ho held in his hand a £ 5 note , which was torn in the middle , and he asked the prisoner to give him up two other £ o notes which he had
belotiL'itig to him . Witness , upon seeing the state of complainant , and hearing him demand thc restoration of bis money , went up and spoke to the prisoner , asking him if lie bad the sailor ' s two £ 5 notes . The prisoner immediately . produced two £ 5 notes , and said the complainant give them to him to keep , adding that the sailor , was his friend , and that they both came up that day from Rochester by the train . Witness took the two £ 5 notes from the prisoner , who wanted them back again , exclaiming that he was only keeping them safe for tbe owner until be was sober . The prisoner also asserted that the woman sitting with him was his sister , and the sailor having afterwards stated tl-at tbe prisoner had some gold belonging to him , he ( witne .-s )
called forward Murray , tbe officer ofthe theatre , . md gave tbe prisoner into cu-tody , —The prisoner here ejaculated : "As tho case has * taken so serious a turn , 1 should wish to have a solicitor in attendance to defend me from such an nccus-itioi ) . — Mr . A ' Beckett : Do you wish to put any questions to the witness . —Prisoner : The greater part of what he states is wrong , I was not sitting hy the sailor ' s sideatthe time , nordidlsay the woman wasmysister . Murray ,, the constable of tbe theatre , confirmed tbat portion of Mr . Clarke's evidence which related to the prisoner having asserted that the sailor was S « a friend - that they had come up by tlie train from Rochester the same day , and that the woman in company was his sister . Murray added that he
searched the prisoner , and in his pocket found a phial about half full of laudanum , a sovereign and a half in gold , besides some silver and a knife . —The sailor was next examined , and he stated that he was paid off from tbe Wellesley and came , up from Chatham on the previous day . When the train arrived at London Bridge tie was looking after his luggage , when the prisoner came up and offered to assist him . and a woman whom lie . ailed his sister was with him . They all left the terminus together , and they afterwards went into several public houses and had beer and rum , and finally the prisoner proposed that they should visit one of the theatres . They then went to the Victoria , and while in the theatre the prisoner and the woman asked him how
much money he had , and he told them lie had three £ 5 Bank of England notes and three sovereigns . They then advised that be should give them tbe money to keep for him in case of accident , and as he supposed the woman to be tbe prisoner ' s sister he handed her over the notes and sovereigns . lie , however , on reflection , thought he had done wrong in entrusting his money to the hands of strangers , and he was i ' n the act of demanding it back , when the first witness came into the saloon and interfered ; that when he called upon the woman to restore the money she refused , and the prisoner pulled one ofthe notes—that which was torn—out of his pocket and gave it to him , but he refused to
give up the others until they were demanded by the box keeper , and be then gave up the two other £ 5 notes to that gentleman . —Mr . A'Beckett , in allusion to the phial of laudanum found on the prisoner , asked the sailor what liquors he had been drinking . in-the compnny of the prisoner and the woman , and whether they had an opportunity given them of mixing anything of a deleterious character in ihe drink ?—The Complainant , in reply , said in some places they had beer and rum before the bar , and at other houses they went into the parlour and had liquor there ; that he did not attend much to what they were doing , as he was so overjoyed to get ashore . —Remanded .

Finding he gained ground the sergeant called out "Stop thief ! " when a man dressed as a butcher cught bim by tho Edinburgh Castle—a distance of nearly half a mile . The street was a dull one , through which vou would
scarcely meet a person passing in an " hour . At daylight next morning Sergeant Smith and Mills found six skeleton keys and a"jemmy" within ten yards of where the prisoner had been stopped . Sergeant Smith heard a rattle as of keys during the chase . A person who had engaged the prisoner , not knowing his character , had been robbed of £ 20 or £ 30 , but the offence could not be brought home . Nineteen duplicates had been been found at his lodgings . —Mr . Pelham , for the defence , cross-examined the officers with great dexterity , but could not elicit anything favourable to the prisoner , and Mr . Ingham sentenced him to three months' bard labour , directing Inspector Smith to see to the duplicates .
LAMBETH . —The Oaks Day .-Mr . Henry Dimsdale , who bad been apprehended on Tuesday week on a warrant charging him with assaulting Mr . Jarman and others by pelting them witb eggs on the Oaks day , but who was admitted to bail , drove up to . one of the avenues leading to the com t , intending to appear before Mr . Elliott , 'in discharge of hia bail , but the instant the vehicle was stopped , a sheriff ' s officer stepped up and arrested him for debt , and drove him off to the Queen ' s Bench Prison . Sometime after , Mr . Jarman , and several others who had been assaulted by Mr . Dimsdale and bis friends , attended , and Mr . BuHantme , the barrister , attended for the accused , mentioned to the magistrate tbe mishap of Ins client ' s arrestand
, further said he understood that Mr . Jarman had preferred a bill of indictment against Mr . Dimsdale and others for the assault at the Central Criminal Court , and that the parties bo indicted had put in the required bail to answer to the offence . If this was so , he ( Mr . Ballantine ) begged to suggest that the justice of the case would be fully met and answered by the appearance at the proper time of f c defendant in discharge of his recognisances to meet the case . Ho hoped that , under the peculiar circumstances of the case , his worship would permit tbat course to be adopted . —Mr , Jarman said he felt it to be both right and proper , after the treatment which ho had experienced , to prefer a bill of indictment for the assault upon himself against five
individuals , amongst whom was Mr . Henry Dimsdale . Tbat bill was found a true one , and the parties had , as the learned gentleman had stated , put in bail to meet that charge at the proper time . He ( Mr . Jarman ) , however , begged to state the fact that , in the first instance , notwithstanding the indignity and annoyance to which he had been subjected , he had pursued tho mildest possible course , by only applying for a summons against the offenders , and had tbey exhibited a corresponding spirit ; and met the charges as they should have done , an indictmentat » R T 3 lJey m , ' * .

fourse be ( Mr . Ballantine ) had suggested .-Mr . Jarman observed that he should not wish to assert that it was so , but the act of arrest ' tnieht be a mere trick to get rid of the charge , in so far as the judgment of tbe magistrate' was concerned ; but it was his ( Mr . Jarman ' s ) intention , and also the intention of others , who had been similarly assaulted , on public grounds to follow up the case . —Mr . Ballantine assured tho court that there was not the slightest collusion between the officers of the-sheriff and the defendant and riis ' attornies . . His client ( Mr .

State Of Trade. Manchesteb, June 24.—We ...
STATE OF TRADE . Manchesteb , June 24 . —We have a steady market , without change of prices ; hut as many of the principal houses have now succeeded iu placing most of th- ir pressingorders , and as many of the spinners and manufacturers are under contract , tbe mark .-t has a quieter , though not a less healthy and encouraging aspect . When prices have at all changed , however , they are ratber in the buyer ' s favour . The following extract from the monthly circular of an extensive house in the shipping trade , printed ior the overland mail , was issued yesterday , and while it gives an encouraging view of the present aspect of the niaiket , to a very considerable extent bears out tbe remarks we liave recently made upon the points it touches upon : — "As compared with the state of mutters a month ago , then .
we may be considered to have gained ground . Mocks « re materially reduci-d , and not only so , but'the margin between cotton and goods has been decidedly increased , and there are few articles which do not at length leave some remuneration to the producer . Indeed , we deem . lie position of spinners and manufacturers to be decidedly better than for several years ; past—a matter of considerable ) and , in short , of national importance , when we regard ihe extent of the trade , anil tbe large mass of the population directly or indirectly dependent on its prosperity . Tlie ' short supply of cotton' difficulty appears to W at » n end ; for the present year the supply is ample , and so far tbe prospects of the coming -eason are decidedly favourable ; while the inducement has been great for the past t « o j ears to extend , and materially so , the cultivation oftta ' staple both in America and elsewhere . And , moreover , the comparatively low and the safe range of prices which anti
has again been come to may lie confidently - cipated t « extend once more the consumption of manufactures , and thus to extend the employment of our labouring popu l ation , should nothing occur of a disastrous nature in the way of bad harvests at home or abroad . From the lowest peiirt our market reached at the beginning of the month yams haven-covered to the extent of Jd . to § d . per lb . in the more staple qualities of water twist , aud in some cases even as much as Jd . perlb . Jlulo yarns have also been similarly affeetWi and stocks are generally very light . In goods 7-8 ths un » 9-8 ths printers have advance about IJd . per piece . M «{ , a ' pidlams much the same . 39-40 inch India sMrtiugs » rt higher generall . i by lid ., and , in seme cases , 3 d . perpfe 1 *; but the business doing in them has been more limited since the last India mail came to hand . Mamifneturws
are , however , -well engaged with contracts for future delivery , and the wai ket is easy of stocks . Lonecloths « l cl < -ths have risen about lid . per piece , and the prices «' domestics are , without any actual advance beingquo ^ T ' somewhat against the buyer . In juccouets tuiuM * 1 * India a full business has been done at hardening pr ! ' * Taken altogether the staple trade of this district is '"* sound and satisfactory condition , and while account "I ™ . the leading foreign markets do not justify any ^" . ^ advance in prices , they may be expected to c 0 , " . " ,, taking off a full average quantity , should prices eoirow " moderate , while the home trade , which from a varielJ , „ cau . es seems to have fallen short of an average at » " »» - for . the last few months ( apparently rather than >' 'V ' perhaps , as during the late fall in prices there 1 ms *«« less been an exhaustion of stocks in middle b andsj . j be expected gradually to revive , and especially « o sn the present favourable hairest prospects be herd " realised .
