As a qaestion might arise in how far the prisoner was bound by the prefious acts of his co-conspirators , he . wonld not sa ; anything ia reference to them , bnt would content himself with a detail of the acta at which he was ao

      tually present . The learned Attorney General then prooeeded to trace the route taken by M'Manns in company with Mr O'Brien , and to state the overt sets of levying war againat the Queen , which were exactly those alleged asd proved against that gentleman , and do not , consequently , need , any further notice . It might be alleged that Mr M'Manns had done those aots in order to protect Mr O'Brien from arrest , but , however cogent such an argument might be in Mr O'Brien ' s case , it conld scarcely be supposed that M'Manns oame over from Liverpool and ap peared in arms for that sole object , and that he did not wish to protect Mr _O'Brjen from arrest in _^ rder that he might become the leader of a revolutionary _nartvi No one was a closer attendanton Mr O'Brien

      thin the prisoner . He pressed a horse into ms service in order to reconnoitre the military , and had been active in erecting barricades and inthe attack en the police . M'Manus was the man who arrested Carroll , the policeman , at a time when some idea was entertained of renewing tke attack on the Widow Cormick ' _s . In giving a statement of _thesa _transae-Uras _, the learned Attorney General took occasion to praise ths determiner ! character and _oottrageons cm * duct of Mr Cox , who with twent _) -two men moved on through a large number of people to tiie rescue of Mr Treat with a party _offers-seven men nnder him . To his judgment and to tke extreme bravery of the police , from Constable Williams upwards , might be imputed tke defeat of the insane attempt of these

      madmen to deluge their country in blood . The only question for the jury was if there waa a mistake in the case , and if M'Manns was tke person engaged in those transactions , asd to satisfy them of that he would at once call evidence before them . Mr M . Wlllock examined by the Solioitor General —Waa employed ia the police force at Liverpool . Knew the prisoner , first noticed him on the 6 th of June at a Repeal meeting in Circus-street Schoolromns , about seven o ' olock , p . ra . It . was caoak full —about 300 present . The prisoner made a speech for abaut twenty minutes , in which he said , ' Every man who fought with ns * should have a piece of land allotted to him in Ireland tkat he could call bis own , ' and _< that unless Repeal were granted there wonld be

      _bloodyalaoghtar . ' Only noticed what waa illegal in tha * _j *) 8 ecliss—was in private clothes . Another policeman * named Jebbitt , was with himinaserara ' e part of the room . Remained from the commencement to the end of the meeting . _Cws-w-rsmined by Mr Butt—Ths meeting was open and waa called by placard . Had taken no notes at the time . Saw no reporters there . Had never sees M'Manus since till he raw him in the dock . Was quite sure he was the same man ; Went on the look-oat for illegal _expressi-ns . Ia twenty minutes there was nothing illegal in his judgment bnt what he had quoted . Had heard of tenaat-right—supposed it was a lease . ( Alaugh . ) Would swear he was not speaking of tenant-right . He did not say he was going to Ireland to fight . Did not speak of a fieht m Ireland at all . Had never taken notes of a i

      speech before . Had taken notes of sermons when be came home from church . Would swear he used every word to convey the meaning of'that every man that wonld fight with ns in Ireland wonld have a piece of land allotted to bim thai he conld call hia own . ' Wonld sot swear to every word , but thinks they-were the same , tothe best of his recollection . M'Manus referred to the junotion between Young and Old Ireland . The chairman , Mr Murphy , on taking the chair , read extracts from the Nation ; there were no resolutions read . No one else spoke about giving land in Ireland . Had given information te the police of the meeting . M'Manus was a forwarding agent in Liverpool , in good business . He was very muck respected there , and was making money . It was not a Chartist meeting , bnt believed there were Chartists present . They did not belong to those at the meeting .-

      Richard Jebbitt , examined by Mr Scott . —WaB employed in the Liverpool Police last summer . Knew Mr _M'Manus-saw kirn at two Chartist meetings , one on the 6 th of June , the other on the 13 th of June , in Circu _3-street . Was present at Hie meeting ofthe 6 th of June . M'Manus was there , and spoke . He said he would have repeal in three months or would have a bloody slaughter . Would swear that M'Manus said that . He alio said there ought to ba an organisation of clubs in Liverpool . On the 13 th of June there was another meeting of the same kind , but not so numerous . Did not recollect hearing M'Manus say anything that evening . Remembered oroasing from Liverpool to Dublin by the Iron Duke steamer , on the evening of tbe 24 th

      of July . M'Manns was on board . He did sot know witness . They arrived at Kingstown at seven o ' clock in the morning of the 25 ; h of July , snd os leaving M'Manus told tha steward there was a tin box in the cabin , which he would leave , and that he would either be going back to England , or would send a boy for it . ( The box was produced and identified by the witness . ) Witness followed M'Manns when he left tha vessel , asd want from Kingstown to Dahlia in the same train with him . On getting into Dublin be saw Mr M'Manus go to the Ihbh Felon _officehe drove there on a car , and witness followed him on another car . He had no luggage frith him then . He knocked at the office , but it was locked , and he then went to a coffee-house close by . asd there

      witness lost bim . About two or three hours after witness returned to ths vessel with Sergeant Garrigan , of the Dublin police . Then foand tke tin cue in the same place he believed it was in when they first left . Gave it to the sergeant . Sergeant Garrigan , ofthe Dublin police , remembered seeing Jebbitt on the morning of the 25 th of July , and going with him to the Iron Duke steamer . Jebbitt gave kirn a tin case . ( The tin case was o-tahed , and the witness identified its contents . ) They were a suit of green uniform—like that of the ' 82 dun—acap , abriceofpistols , aliquor flask , two purses—one of them having a five-frane piece in itand a pair of socks . M'Manus smiled as he recognised his property on its being exposed on the table _.

      _Cross-exaroined by Mr Bntt—Jebbitt said he be-Iieved _M'Masus did sot know he was watching him . Never had sees an ' 82 uniform . The same on the box , as the maker ' s name , was Lambert , Brown , and Co ., Dame street , Dublin ; 1762 was on the buttons of too cat Edward Lyons , ths steward of the Iron Dake steamer , said he remembered arriving at Kingstown on the morning of the 25 th . A tin box was left in _biicare by M'Manus , [ whom , he identified ) , with this direction , that he would either return to England that sight or would send a boy for the box . He did aot return for the box . A policeman came and took it . The court then adjourned at a quarter past seven o'clock to _half-psst sine next morning .

      The trial of Mr M'Manus was resumed at ten o ' olock en Tuesday morning . The evidence addueed was intended to prove that the prisoner accompanied Mr O'Brien all through his campaign , from the tbitetion to the poUi » at Muilinahone barracks , to tbe repulse of the insurgents by Inspector Trant and his menat the Commons of Boulagh . Head constable Crawley proved that he arrested the prisoner on board an American vessel lying abont two miles outside of Cove . The evidenoe was almost a repetition of that in Mr O'Brien ' s ease . The case for the . crown closed , and the oourt rose at six o ' clock .

      . Dmnvnr , Thursday Morning . Mr Bntt , Q . C , opened the defence of Mr M'Manus yesterday , ia an address to the jury characferised by : eloquence , legal acumen , and , we may add , ingenuity . He has certainly pnt the case of hia client in about the best position it could be placed before the Court and jury ; bnt the main facts being admitted—of bis participation is the affairs of Mullinahone and Ballingarry , whioh formed the overt acts of high treason of which MrO'Brien stands convieted , leaves little room for anticipating any other verdict thanoneof ' guilty . ' Mr O'Cauagkan followed Mr Bntt on the same side , and shortly after five o ' clock the court adjourned . COXVICIIOX 01 ? T . H ' _MAOTfl POB HIOH IBEABOM . Cwsmel , Thursday Evening . —A verdiot of Guilty , after three hours' deliberation , was handed in by the jury against Mr M'Manns .

      Mr Barton handed in a paper , which wss read by the clerk— ' We strongly recommend the prisoner to the merciful consideration of the crown . ' The prisoner , who cosdaoted himself throughout with great firmness and nonchalance , waa observed to 8 H _* i _* eas the recommendation was read . _Oabsing ordered to ba removed from the dock , the prisoner , previous to bis leaving , reached forward and shook hands cordially * with his counsel , Mr O'CaUaghan , bowed respactfolly to tha court , and retired . Mr O'Donohue __ was then pnt on his trial , whieh very probably will _ossopy the court _hd to Saturday . We hes * it is not intended to try Mr _Mea-mer at

The rumour is , that the special commission will bs adjourned , and that when the _courtwaumesita sittings , Mr Meagher will ta put ontnal .

      Government Regulations For The Preventio...

      GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS FOR THE PREVENTION OF CHOLERA . Friday week ' s Gazette contains a notification from the Board of Health respecting the cholera . It is of extreme length ; but the follo-ving extracts are of such universal application , and so important to be borne in mind at the present moment , that we hasten to place them before our readers : —

      CHOLERA NON-CONTAGIOUS . The undoubted authority or . the evidence ob : _tained from observers of all classes , in different countries and climates , and amidst all varieties ef the physical , political , and social conditions of the people , appear to discredit the once _prevaleat opinion tbat cholera is , in itself , contagious ; an opinion which , if fallacious , must be mischievous , since it diverts attention from the true source of danger , and the real means of protection , and fixes it on those which are imaginary ; creates panic ; leads to the neglect and abandonment of the sick ; occasions great expense for what is worse than , useless ; and withdraws attention from tbat brief but important interval between the commencement and the development of the disease , during which remedial measures are most effective in its cure .

      _PRECAtrnOSS AGAINST THE DISEASE . Householders of all classes should be warned , that their first means of safety lies in the removal of dung heaps and solid and liquid filth of every description from beneath or about their houses and premises ! Though persons long familiarised to the presence of such refuse may not perceive its otjen slveness , nor believe in its noxious properties , yet all who desire to secure themselves from danger should labour for the entire removal of filth and the thorough cleansing of their premises ; which also the law will require of each person for the protection of his neighbours , as well as for his own safety .

      Next to the perfect cleansing of the premises , dryness ought to be carefully promoted , which will of course require the keeping up of sufficient fires , particularly in the damp and unhealthy districts , where this means should be resorted to for the sake ef ventilation as well as of warmth and dryness . Particular attention should be paid to keeping the feet warm and dry ; changing the clothes immediately after exposure to wet ; and maintaining the sitting and bedrooms well-aired , dry , and _watm .

      PR 1 MONITOR . Y SYMPTOM . If the disease should break out , it will be essential to the safety of the inhabitants tbat they should be fully impressed with the importance of paying instant attention to the premonitory symptom that announces tbe commencement of the attack . __ This premonitory symptom is looseness iu the bowels , which there is reason to regard as universally preceding the setting in of the more dangerous state of the disease . Sometimes , indeed , under the

      circumstances already described , namely , where the ' poison exists in unusual intensity , or the constitutional predisposition is unusually great ,-the first stage may appear to be suppresed , as occasionally happens in violent attacks of other diseases ; but in cholera , this event is so rare , as to be practically of no account ; and in all countries , and under all varieties of conditions in which this disease has been epidemic , the experience as to this point uniformly agrees with what is observed at the present moment at Hamburgh .

      ' In most cases / writes the British Consul , respecting the epidemic which has just broken ont in that city , ' the disease has first manifested itself in a slight relaxation of the bowels , which , if promptly attended to , the patient generally recovers ; but if the symptoms are neglected , spasmodic attacks ensue , and death follows mostly in from four to six hours . ' Tbis looseness of the bowels may be accompanied with some degree of pain , which , however , is generally slight ; but in many cases pain is wholly absent ; and for some hours and even days this bowel complaint may be so slight as to appear trifling ; so that , without a previous knowledge of tbe importance of the warning , it might easily escape notice altoeether .

      It must be repeated , however , that whenever Asiatic cholera is epidemic , the slightest degree ot looseness of the bowels ought to be regarded and treated as the commencement of the disease , which at this state is capable of being arrested by simple means , but , if neglected only for a few hours , may suddenly assume a fatal form .

      REMEDIES TO ARREST THE PREMONITORY SYMPTOM . Medical authorities are agreed that the remedies proper for the premonitory symptom are the same as those found efficacious in common diarrbosa ; that the most simple remedies will suffice , if given on the first manifestation of this system ; and that the following , wbich are within the reach and management of every one , may be regarded as among the most useful , namely , twenty grains of opiate of

      confection , mixed with two table _spjonsful of peppermint water , or with a little weak brandy and water , and repeated every three or four hours , or oftener , if the attack is severe , until the looseness of bowels is stopped ; or an ounce of the compound chalk mixture , with ten or fifteen grains'of the aromatic confection , and from five to ten drops of laudanum , repeated in the same manner * From half a drachm to a drachm of tincturce of catechu may be added to this last , if the attack is severe .

      Half these quantities should be given to young persons under fifteen , and still smaller doses to infants . It is recommended to repeat these remedies night and morning , for some days after the looseness of the bowels has been stopped . But in all cases it is desirable , whenever practicable , that even in this earliest stage of the disorder recourse should be bad to medical advice on the spot .

      DIET ANB CLOTHIN _* . Next in importance to the immediate employment of such remedies is attention to proper diet and clothing . Whenever Asiatic cholera is epidemic there is invariably found among great numbers of the inhabitants an extraordinary tendency to irritation of the bowels ; and tbis fact suggests that every article of food which is known to favour a relaxed state of the bowels should , as far as possible , be avoided—such as every variety of green vegetables , whether cooked or not , as cabbage , encumber , and salad . It will be important also to abstain from fruit of all kinds , though ripe and even cooked , and whether dried or preserved . The most wholesome

      articles of vegetable diet are well baked , but not new bread , rice , oatmeal , and good potatoes . Pickles should be avoided . Articles of food and drink which , in ordinary seasons , are generally wholesome , and agree well with the individual constitution , may , under this unusual condition , prove highly dangerous . The diet should be solid rather tban fluid ; and those who have the means of _choosxng , should live principally on animal food , as affording the most concentrated and invigorating diet ; avoiding salted and smoked meats , pork , salted and shell fish ,

      cider , perry , ginger beer , lemonade , acid liquors of all descriptions , and ardent spirits . Great moderation both in food aud drink is absolutely essential to safety during the whole duration of the epidemic period . One single act of indiscretion has , in many instances been followed by a speedy and fatal attack . The intervals between the meals should not be long ; cholera being uniformly found to prevail with extraordinary intensity among the classes that observe the protracted fasts common ia Eastern and some European countries .

      On account of the intimate connexion between the external skin and the internal lining membrane of the bowels , warm clothing is of great importance . The wearing of flannel next the _skiu is therefore advisable . -Recent experience on the Continent seems to show that it was useful to wear iu the day time a flannel bandage round t he body , and this may become necessary in our own country during the damp and cold weather of the approaching season . CAUTION AGAINST IMPROPER UBDICINK 8 . It may be necessary to add a caution against the use of cold purgative medicines , such as salts , particularly Glauber salts , Epsom salts , and Seidlitz powders , which taken , in any quantity , in such a season , are dangerous . Drastic purgatives of all kinds should be avoided , such as senna , colocyntb _, and aloes , except under special medical direction .

      INSTRUCTIONS IN THE EVENT OF AN ATTACK 0 » CHOLERA . If , _notwithstanding these precautionary measures , a person is seized suddenly with cold , giddiness , nausea , vomiting , and cramps , under circumstances «» which instant medical assistance cannot be procured , the concurrent testimony of tbe most experienced medical authority shows that the proper course is to get as _sson as possible into a warm bed ; to apply warmth by means of heated flannel , or bottles filled with hot water , or hags of heated camomile flowers , sand , bran , or salt , to the feet and along the spine ; to have the extremities diligently rubbed ; to apply a large poultice of mustard and vinegar over the region of the stomach , keeping it on fifteen or twenty minutes ; and to take every

      Government Regulations For The Preventio...

      half hour a tea spoonful of sal volatile in a little hot water , or a dessert spoonful of brandy in a little het water , or a wine glass of hot wine whey , made by pouring a wine glass of sherry into a tumbler of hot milk—in a word , to do every thing practicable to procure a warm , general perspiration until the arrival ofthe medical attendant , whose immediate care , under such circumstances , is iudispensable .

      The Cholera. Cosoni-'S Ikcdiit.— At An I...

      THE CHOLERA . _Cosoni- ' s _Ikcdiit . — At an Inquest held os Saturday latt mt the Bedford Arms , Bedford-Street , Commercialroad East , before Mr W . Baker , tha coroner ; it was itated by the medloal witaets _. that the _Aelatio oholera , io ita most severe form , had made its appearanoe at the east end of the metropolis . In reply to questions from the Coroner , Mr Faulkner , tbe pariah _eurgeon , said that fee had three cases of real Asiatio cholera under his lmmediate _netlcs , one of which proved fatal on Wednesday week after a very short Illness . There oould be no doubt whatever in tha oaie , the body turning quite bine .

      As it was most probable that the remaining two cases would also prove fatal , he wished to know whether the coroner would , under the circumstances , hold an inquest . The Ceioner tald undoubtedly bs shonld hold an inquest in every case , in order that the publio might know the course ef the frightful malady , aad guard against its approach . Under each circumstances there was ne ubo in secrecy . It wae best that tbe publio should ksow their danger , If there were any , He directed tbe constable to inqalre into the case mentioned by Ur Faulkner , aad report the remit to bim . All the cases mentioned by Mr Faulkner hare occurred in Mile Ead Old Town , parish of Stepney . '

      Oa _Wednesday week two patient-., father and daugh ter , suffering from cholera , were admitted into St Bartholomew ' s Hospital . The male patient ' s name was James Geerge , aged about 40 , a labourer , employed in looking after butchers' carts in Newgate Market ; the female patient , bis daughter , it in her seventh year . The man died on the day of bit admission ; the little girl is recovering . The three principal phyiioians ofthe boipl tal have certified the death aB resulting from Asiatio oholera , and have certlfltd as muoh to the government authorities . A ward in a hew wing of the institution hat been for tome time past prepared and fitted for the reception of cholera patients , Io Lambeth ; , alio , -case * seem to have occurred . Mr Wagstaff , the parochial surgeon , wat seat for on Sunday evening to attend a person of the name of Panel * , residing at 18 , Xennlngtonplace .

      Upon arriving there he found the party labouring under Asiatio oholera . The man belag destitute of warm bedding , ito ., a messenger was instantly despatched te Lambo h workhouse for a pair of blankets and some brandy . The patient was put to bed and the usual remedies resorted toby Mr Wagataff ; but whether the man will recover or not it it at present impossible ta tell . In _Btother'e-row , Fore-street , Lambeth , two or three persons have beeu attacked , one of whom has died after BB illness , of eight _hoore . The police have received orders to npsrt . every case that may ocour in their districts to bead quarters , to that immediate remedies may be retorted to to arreil itt progress , —The following oases bave _ooourredat Woolwioh on hoard the _Justitla . and Unite convict ships ; the first was that of a prisoner named Owen Janes , Who was taken ill with violent

      _diarrhsea aad other symptoms of spatmodlo cholera , and died on Taeiday week . The coroner ' s inquest on the body was not held till Friday week , when Mr Dabbi , the surgeon of the cenvlct establishment , gave it at hit opinion that tbe deceased died from _Eogliih oholera . At that time tome other cases , though not of a very marked oharaoter , were on the sick list , but on Friday evening latt Rutherford , a convict employed aa cook of the Just ' - da , wat suddenly taken ill with cholera , and died early on the following morning . When hit body wat being carried eat another prisoner , named Jones , was _seJaad with intense fear , and Immediately exolalmed , 'I ' ve got it . ' Tbe maa ran to a surgeon , who , perceiving no symptom of UinetB about him , laughed at him , and gave him a slight dose of purgative medicine , telling bim that there was nothing the matter with htm . About one

      o ' clock , however , tho man was telxed with strong symptom ! of cholera , aad died in less thaa two boors , his deBth taking place about thro * o ' clock on Saturday . There are still fonr or five prisoners labouring under the same form of disease , one of which , the case of a prisoner named Bidgood , is expected to terminate fatally . A communication , embracing the above faots , was for * warded on Saturday night to the Home Office , with the view of obtaining the attendance of the medioal _inspector of _prltoBS or of tome other eminent physician . It If deserving of mention that although cases of violent diarrhoea have been common la the town of Woolwich , bo oaie of _Atiatic-cholera has yet occurred . The three men who have died were men of broken constitutions , although free from any disease at the time tbey were attacked , Oibex ur _Cooncir , . —A cemmaniaation has been

      received by the Commissioners of the _Caatems from Mr OrevUle , one of the clerks of the oounoil , staling that instructions thonld be given to the officers of customs at the varioas parts to detain steamers coming from places wbere oholera prevails under quarantine for full six days from the date of their tailing from tbe fsreign port , when all _persost in good health may be permitted to land ; but that in the event of there being aay person on board suffering from oholera , they should not be per mitted to land until six day t after they have been pronounced convalescent . In tbe event of any death taking place on board , the body should be committed to the deep , properly loaded ta _prevent lu rising ; and that all the clothing of persons who have been ill should be immersed in water . Tbe Commissioners of tbe Customs bave caused copies of their lordships' order to be forwarded to the principal officers at tbe several port * .

      OincuL Obikbs or ihs Police _CoHMitsioasas , —¦ On Monday evening the Polioe Commissioners issued an order directed to eaoh _superintendent of the metropolitan police , to make to them ( the commissioners ) a daily return of all oases of oholera occurring within their respective divisions every twenty . feur hours ; the reports to furnished to be transmitted to tbe government and the Board of Health . The Thames police is to perform the same _datiet amongst the thippiBg in the river , and to make a return of all cases which occur that ara not taken ashore . Thi Cholma in thi Metropolis . —On Monday , a coroner ' t inqaett wat held at the Boyal Mortar ' ' Tavern , Woolwich , before Mr C . J . Csrttar , on the bodies of three prisoners , named Rutherford , Jonei , aad _BiSgood , the two former of whom expired on Saturday , the latter

      on Sunday , from the effects , it la alleged , of Asiatic cholera . _—< Hr _Dabbt , the surgeon of the establishment , stated that the deceased died from the _tffucts of epidemic cholera but he would not prodonnce say opinion at to whether it was _Asiaiio cholera . A verdict of ! Bled from natural causes ' was returned . We are happy to ttate that so new oases have shown themselves on board the Jastitiaor Unite , and the only oase that hat terminated fatally since Saturday wat that of Bidgood , ' who died on Sauday . The other mea who were attacked by the disease are recovering . It it worthy of notioe that an aggravated form of . diarrbosa it now provalent in Woolwich , especially amongst children , bnt ia few oases hat it terminated fatally . Aa undisputed oase of Asiatic cholera has occurred in Woolwich to a lady residing in t t

      Bowaer crescen but in this case the lady had just _retoraed from Hamburg , where the mutt have takes the disease . On Thursdoy afternoon , Charles Wilkinson ,, a coal , weigher , residing in Sllver . street , Globe road , Step _, ney , while engaged on board a _tollier lying ta the Pool , was seized with cholera , He waa conveyed home , and attended by Dr Todd , and though all known remedies were applied , the man died next morning . —A pattest in the London Hospital , also died yesterday afternoon of Asiatic cholera , He was a teaman , and was _sadd-nty attaobed in bis vestal in tbe Pool on Thursday last . In this case the hospital authorities have communicated with the Board of Health , and it is expected that a government officer will be tent to investigate that and an other death whioh has occurred in tbe same parish-Stepney .

      Ths CBotm . Woolwich , Oct . 10 . —Tbe convicts on board the _Justttia are _stlti under quarantine , and none of tbem ore permitted on shore to work ia the Boyal Arsenal . The Indulgence of being allowed to smoke has had a wonderful effect , and the men seem to enjoy tkemselvet very muoh .

      _MAtfSlOH-HOlTSE . — _RoBasar . _ri-A _jrouog m _*» named William Trowbridge , was broagkt before the Lord Mayor , oharged upon suspicion of having stolen a port _, manteau , containing paletots and other articles of dress . —Mr George Cross , traveller for the firm of _Nloolland Co ., tald—Oa Saturday week I came to Lmdoa from Ipswich in the last train . At _Iptwicb I saw deposited in theluggsge van my brown portmanteau , containing a quantity of wearing apparel , consisting of paletots , _waisteoatings , & c _anewedltioBof * Walker ' s _Pronounc ing Dictionary , ' and other things . I oame in the same train to London , and a gentleman of the name of M'Pherson travelled with me . He agreed to assist me in getting my luggage when we _sbtuld arrive at the tflrmtnns . The moment we reached the terminus at

      Shoredltcb , he and I hastened to the _loggege van as fast as we could , bat before we could reaoh the van the portmanteau with its contents was gone . . There had been tied to it a soft leather label , with the words 'George _CrotB , passenger , Londen , ' written on it . ( Here pieces ot waistcoating were prtdaced , which the witness tald he shonld think belonged to the _oontentt of the _portmanean . ) Upon ascertaining the loss I wat much grieved , snd I dare say I betrayed a good deal of anger to the servants of the company , whe , however , promised to make every exertion for the _reoovery of the goods . I advertised on Monday morning , and received a letter from Mr M'Pherson since , Informing me tbat he had made many Inquiries along the railroad , and that he had found no trouble at » U had been taken by the establishment , notwlthttsndlng the

      assurances I had received . — The Lord _Meyor , —I thought the company had made suoh arrangements as were well calculated to protect the property _instrusted to tbem ?—The Witness . —I & _ev ? r beheld property in a moro unprotected ttate . There i" as muoh protection to be found in _Gbeapsido as open that railroad . —The Lord Mayor . —I have understood that the losses which have occurred oa that railrosd had caused a complete altcrattouin the system t—The Witness , —I aBBureyour lordthlp the exposure of the property of the pablio to thieves is most deplorable . I saw one person who bad no _basiaess at the terminus ordered off ; but _people might do just at they pleated there . They were quite at liberty to do anything ; Evidenoe was given tracing the possession ef the property to tbe prisoner , who wat committed for trial .

      THAMES . —A _Siiioa's Divoice , —An old teaman , named _tVilJ ' _ams , appeared to answer an assault-warrant Issued at the l _stanoe of his wife . Both parties were considerably advanced in years , aad both equally determined on a separation . —The Solioitor who appeared for tho complainant , etld he would not go into the facts of tbe oase , as it would not serve either party to do to ; but if he did it woald be evldeat that his client wbb en . titled to ask for anything which woald promote a separation from her husband . 'All , however , that he at present prayed was , a postponement of the case for a few days . —Mr Yardtty ( to the defendant Bo yon agree to that ?—Williams ( twitching up hit trowsers ) : Oh , I will agree to anything la reason , you see . She has everything and I have Hotblng . Wben I married her I gave her £ 200 , and a good deal more money since . Now

      let ber give me half the lot and I will out my Bticts from the whole lot of them . —Mr Yardley : It is not usual for a man to give all to his wife . On the contrary , when a man marries he becomes entitled to all his wife ls possessed of . —Williams : I thought so , and heard to ; but did net find It so , ( Laughter . ) I worked hard for the money I gave her , I have been forty years at tea , and served her Majesty ; to yoa see I do not like to be humbugged—no offence to your honour , —Mr Yardley : Bat it seems you have agreed to separate ?—Williams : Wby , yes . I will give her half the rope , and go to flea again . I will cut the lot of them—no offence to year honour . I am blunt Jack—tbat is what they call me ; and I am net going to work herd any more fer that woman . Blunt jack then _lefi the oourt , with an air which did not promise a very amicable arrangement .

Oa tbe tome evening , while In the kitchen , defendant attempted to throw bailing water over her , and struck her over the arm with the poker , at the same time saying the should like to knock her brains

      oat , Sbe wat nnable to get to ber bedroom as defendant had lacked her door , and she was , therefore , compelled to remain all night In the kitchen ; there were also wages due to her , which the was unable to get—Defendant denied having _struok complainant , the latter of whom the charged with assaulting her . She also Bald that she ( complainant ) had oharged her more for sundry articles paid for by her than sbe ought to hare done ; la addition thereto she alleged that eamplalaant ' g _laa . guage to her was insulting in the extreme . Complainant also 8 track her over the head and arm with the lid

      tone . The defendant had been maid In house for some time , when , unfortunately , he was smitten by her full-blown charms , and eo far from sighing in valu , the damsel smiled propitiously upon his suit , aad eventually bore him a _obubby-faced riflec tiouofhls own _woe-be-gone self .

That while there , dating the ahsenoeof her father , the _prlionsr had behoved in a very rude way to her and that she mentioned it to her father when he

      returned home , but he desired her not to mind It ; and tbat the prisoner , who Jived in the honie , aod had hie meal ! with ber father , was in the habit of assaulting her in the tame manner until the wat takea away by a gentleman to her mother ' s rstldenoa . On _returning home te her mother the mentioned the _factt to her . — Mrs _Chesnutt stated also on the former examination that tbe had being living apart from ber husband since the 25 th of latt March , having _teparated from him In _constquenoe of hit immoral conduot _; _thafhehadtpent £ 8 , 0 * 0 of her money in extravagance ; that _tlncethen he had had £ 2 , 000-more to pay off hit debts , and that he wat ia the habit of assooiatiag with low company , frequenting publio _bonees , and getting intoxicated ; that ha had otherwise conducted himself towards her _ina maa

      ner tbatreudered it impossible for her to live any longer under the same roof , particularly as the bad a yoaog fa . mily . She had , therefore , placed herself and ber ohildren under the protection of her father ; She added tbat the Rev . Mr Chetnntt induced their daughter to accompany him to a house in King . tireet , Soho , where she remailed for some days , and upon her return tbe child disclosed the partitulart ofthe conduot that had been pursued towards her while there , and she ( the mother ) lost no time in bringing tbe matter under the notice cf tbe magistrate . —When ths defendant was plaoed at the bar on the present occasion , Mr _Cottiogbam Inquired if tbe Rev . Mr Chetnntt was In attenda _» oe , aad the answer being in the affirmative , the magistrate oxpr _* _ised his astonishment that he had not beea present on the

      former eooaslon , when s « serious an accusation wat preferred by his own child against a man living ia the same hOBse with him—The information having beea read , Mr Salomons , _wha attended on behalf of the accrued , addressing tbe Rev . Mr Chetnntt , atked him if there wat any truth ta it , whether hit daughter hod com . _plolned to him of the alleged assault upon her ?—He replied that she had not . —Mr _Cottngham : Pray , Mr Chesnutt , was the prisoner In your _servloe , or In what relation does he slant * , to yoa 1—The Rev , Mr Chesnatt : He was sot in my service , but he lodged in tht same house , and was attentive , and occasionally played with the ohild to divert her when I took her away from her mother . —Mr Salomons : Do yon believe that there is aay troth , then , in the statement made by your

      daughter against the accused ?—Mr Cdttihgbaa : It it not for him to jadge at to the truth or false ' eood of her aocoaat . I tested the child ' s capacity and credibility _beforo the oath was administered , and every dream . stance the has related to ate it quite consistent , and bean the imprest of truth ; fer , although her parents are separated and at enmity , still it it absurd to iapposr tbat the ohild inherits their feeling * , and that the weald come forward to make suoh a charge at this without foundation . —In reply to Mr Cottingham , the rev . gentleman eaid that the prisoner was ia the bablt of going into bis bedroom at timet with hot water for shaving , dso . The question wat put by the magistrate , ae tbe complainant had tald that the prisoner ' s assaults npon her were frequently committed in her father ' s

      bedroom . —Mr Cottiogbam here had tbe little girl brought forward , and when the heard her father ' s denial ef her having complained to him of the prisoner ' s miscondaot , the persisted in the truth of all tbe bad ttated . She added tbat the knew a Mitt Rbert and a Mrs Elliott at tbe honse ia Ktag . street , bat the did not _meation to them the way the had beea treated by the prisoner , and that her reason for not delng to wat on _Bccouotof her short acquaintance with tbem , asd that the thought telling her father of It he woald prevent it in future . That her mother did not tell her to make up _tbeotory aboat the pritener , acd the added that he WBB in the habit of taking her oat cf bed and dressing her , —Mr Cattingham here observed that he never heard anjthing more Improper , net to iay Indelicate , than for

      a man ia the rev , geatlevan _s position ia life permitting a man like the prisoner to be attending and dressing , and undressing hit ohlld , and that child a daughter , particularly ae it appeared there were two females in the house . To say Ihe least of if , he acted ni : h great in . discretion ia tafferiag _tnoh a man to be about hit child . —The Rev . Mr Chesaatt eaid that Mrs Elliott aad Mist Ebers did attend npon the child when they were at elsure , hat be coatd not expect tbey ceald be always with her ; that he , however , was seldom from heme ! and tbat tho prisoner , he should say , had so opportunity of aoting in the manner she desorlbed . —Mr Cottingham : If the ohild oould not have been preperly attended to by you , she ought not to have been taken away from the care of her mother . The magistrate added tbat , at tbe last examination , he had given directions fer the child to be examined by a medioal man , in order to ascertain If ber statement of the _violeaoe offered to her by the prisoner wat borne out by appearances . Mr Saltiel , a

      surgeon , found that violence had been used ts the ohild , and although eight or ten days had elapsed since the period , yet there were indications of it still existing . Mr Salomons contended that the evidence waB not sufficiently strong against the prisoner to warrant the magistrate ia sending the oase for trial . —Mr Cottiagham : He believed the ohild to be the witness of truth , aod tbat she was not biased either one way or the oiher . Tbe oondaot of tbe father of the child was moBt remarkable throughout . He ( the magistrate ) should commit the prisoner . —Mr Salomons : I hope you will aooept of ball to a reasonable amount , otherwise the prisoner will be compelled to lie in gaol till hit trial , — Mr Cottingham said thai as it wat a _ba'Isble offence , he should , therefore , adjudge tbe prisoner to enter lata his own recognisances of £ 100 , and find two sureties of £ 60 , to answer tbe charge at the next sessions for Middlesex .
