The " Disoio ) eklt Hotjss" NriSASCs . —On Monday last , a young girl , who gave her name Elizabeth Bird , but whose real name -was said to be 3 ur < lctt , vra * charged before the magistrates at the Court House , byrone of the nightly watch , with disorderly conduct in tbe street , at an early hour on Sunday morning . Her protectress , a Mary Greenwood , the keeper of a brothel in Bridge-street , was also placed at the bar , on a charge of having attempted to rescue the " yooJDg lady" from the hands of the watchman . Elizabeth's conduct , as described by the watchman and other persons , was disgusting in the extreme ; and several respectable parties came forward to prefer complaints against Greenwood , for keeping
a notoriously disorderly honse of the very irorsfc description , where it was proved upwards of a dozen yonng 'ads , the eldest not more than sixteen years of age , had been frequently known to be congregated at untimely hours of the night . The magistrates , Mr . Grace and Mr . Lnpton , expressed their determination to put a stop to this , if possible ; and , after ordering an indictment to be preferred at the next sessions , they sent Miss Bird to Wakefield for a montb , as a lewd and disorderly character , and ordered Greenwood to enter itto rec . trnizances v ; Wtitvfc > TeBpecto . l >\ e householders , in £ 20 each , to keep the peace for three months . In default of this , she was committed for tba ; time .
Stejxi . \ g Piust . —On Monday last , two young lads named Wm . Howgite , alias Joseph Gatehouse , and John Furness , were brought up at tbe Court House , on a charge of having sto ' en a piece of prii ) t ? d calico . A policeman met the prisoners in Swinegate , on Saturday , one of whom had the piece of print under bis arm . On being questioned he said bis father had bought h to make dresses for bis mother and sister , but failing to give satisfactory replies to other questions , and being a known thief , ha was taken into custody , bis companion being permitted at that time to go . He was , however , subsequently , taken on another charge — that of pocket picking—and they were placed at the bar together ; ihe print was identified by a shopman of Mr . Smith , draper , Brigeate , as his master ' s property , and wbicb had been stolen from within that gentleman ' s shop door , on Thursday or Friday . They were both committed for trial , flowgate has been previously convicted .
Paying " dear for a "Deck . "—On Monday last , a man named Wm . Jackson , was brought up at the Court House , on a charge of having kicked over a stall inTicar-la-ne , ob Saturdsy ni ^ bt-, by which tbe ¦ wh ole stock-in-trade of Mrs . Garbutt , an extensive dealer in those savoury morsels entitled " half-penny ducks , " bad been sent rolling in the keune ] . It would seem that Jackson , about eleven o ' clock on the night in question , had , after drinking pretty freely , fallen hungry , and visited the complainant ' s stall to get a relish ; he gave her a penny for his duck , and when be bad eaten it , declared that she had not ± riven him Ins change . This she denied , and told him to feel iu his pockets , when , although be said he had not a halfpenny , one was found there . He then eot Vfesed , and without more ado sent bis foot
amongst . the cucks , and away tht v flew , scattering the gravy in all directions . The woman Talned her loss a % 3 s . 63 ., "which sum he was ordered to p 3 j . Boxing . —^ On Tuesday last , a man named Thos . Archer , residing at New Road End , was brought before the Magistrates at the Curt Hou < = e , on a warrant charging him with having been a principal ii a prize fig : t , which took place on the 58 r h of June , in a field belonging to Mr . Atkinson , at . Suenlane , by "which daiaa ^ e to some a mount was committed . The name of the other manis Riley , but he has get on ; of the way . The damage , as mads cm by tba witnesses , amonnied to the sum of 1 : ^ . one half of which , with the costs , he was ordered to pay ; besides in addition enuring into recogrnziuceswkh tvro sureties in £ 10 each , to keep tLe peace for twtlre months .
"A little BiiEF Auihoiutt . "—On Tuesday last , aper ^ ou moving a respectable sphere of liie , appeared in the dock at the Couit House , the charge against him , as entered on iho police sheet , hewn an assault on a " watchman . When the care was ca !! ed on , the accused piny presented himself before the ber-eh with a pair of the m ^ t awful-lonkiny black eves it is possible to imasrine . The mojji-tr . ites appeared siruck when they bchr ] j tiic plish ; he wa . s in , aEd more so when his accuser , a watchmen , r . arred Dav ; d Sell , did not even present the appearance of a mark . Bell .-wore quite cool . y that he found the prisoner ia company with a woman in G . orge-street , at four o ' clock in ; he morning ; > h-.-y were nwkipg ' a co : se , and he desired "t > . em to desist
njon wh : ch . be was struck by-the prisoner in the face . He then lock him into custody , when he bccarne very violi-nt , and th . % v . - himself on the gmusJ , cec ' . aring he wonid not £ 0 to prison . In Vicarlane thv'y had a severe tic-J :: ^ and there another v . - aifhman came to his assistance . Tya # , the other watchman alluded r o , * mfcrely deposed to tnis . When a ^ ked by what rr . eaus the prisoner ' s eyes had bevii brought to their present state , BeL replied that he had Qons them himself" iy falling dozen the prison i ' Cps ' Mr . R » a . d told ibid suaruiau of the lii ^ hl luiil Suca a lh : xi ^ w . xs impos ^ ioic , and that he must ha-f-j been mL-it ravagdy struck at-. Ice accused declared taa : h-s hid no ; l ^ licn down the prison r-tti-s , bat that B--. il , after saying that he lia-i 1 < ji ;_'
Wiii- >? d him , and wc-n 3 i shc-n pa > Wai cS , struck him in the pfiion yard , aud his b ; ood was there thca to testify . Tha raigistrater , after cc-n ? ultni « t together , fiaed the prisoner twenty .-hii : i : ! j < 6 a : ia c ' o .-ti ., im ' i ^ aiivg that th-, y sho ; la hz : e E .,--d him £ . b , but t ' rtvy tbotiahi t . e watebman had esctceri . d his du-y by ftrikiug him in the mam ; er he had uone . Tee fine was paid , and at the lose of the buiiiicrs of ihe day , Mr , Lupion , avdressint : the watchman , told htm that he . had fcvidtmW grcairy exzeedid his duty ; and a watchman was never justified in using greater severity than was necessary
' for his own safety , which it "was quite evident had been done in this case . If a proper statement oi the i case was made to the Watch Committee , it would j probably Lead to bis dismissal . We hope , for the credit or the "force , " th 3 t a statement of the case ; will be laid before the Watch Committee , and that j such a pnnishment will be awarded to the brme as ; he richly deserves . He ia evidently not fit to be : entrusted with the powers which his present situation confer ? , s-nd the sooner he is deprived of the i means of doing mischief tbe better . We think the ' magistrates ought to have made a representation of ' the circumstances to the Watch Committee .

Portvgvl . — -Lisisojii , Jbly 4 : —Tho Slave-trada and Coramercial Treaties have ac ' -lflriath been signed , and will be sent to England for ratification by this packet . A conferenco was held ' yesterday at the Portuguese Foreign-office , when the two . " Plenipotentiaries affixed their signatures to both treaties . The ttrm . prescribed for ratifination is two months , or sooner if possible . I brlieve the Slav . ) trade Treaty , aa now ; agreed to by Portugal , is very complete . The . traffic is declared piracy , and the Government will issue a decree baser ) oh the one of Decernbnr , 1336 , but declaring the traSn suppressed
by thait decree to be piracy , anH affixing Bevere secondary punishments . 16 ' its ¦ c&mmission . As regards the . Commercial Treaty , 'it is comparatively of sma ' . l isnportanee to us , until the . alterations in the tariff are agreed upon ; but another Report 13 expected'to-be pr ^ efltsd to-day by the . ¦ ¦ Por tnffne ' se Commissioners , and there seern ^ reason ; io ; ihbik that , by tho tirn ^ tho ratifications havo bei ^ n exchanged , the tariff question wilt have been satisfactorily settled ...

The treaties themselves will becomo law htre when rarified , and the same with respect to any rcductipTi of duties which the Government here may eff . c ; . by decree under the Charter ^ The Charter coiifers on the Grovvii the power . ? necessary to concludo . all treaties with foreign Powers : unless icvol via ? a ces .-ion of
territory they become law without the interposition of the Legislature , The Ministry remains unchanged at present . Offers ; have been made both to the Duke of Palmella and Senhor B . F . Magalhafs , but neither will accept the office .. The Ihike i ? , no doubt , ' . wise in doing so ; -lie is 'Pre'sH ' ent of the Chamber of Peers , and would always hn consulted , and have more power , perhaps , out of office than he wouia in-office .
