" HAPPY LAND . * 0 Britain , how fruitful thy bills and th 7 Tallies , Whsa golden-iced grain-treasure crowns thy rich plains » fair commerce la freighting thy &r-saDing galleys , While trade-nurtured affluence gloats on ite gains , jby proud pampered nobles indulge in each dainty ; Their concert-notes smother pale poverty ' s sigh ; fThile garni famine stalks amid regions of plenty , And dooms forlorn millions of hunger to die .

LEEDS . —Crceltt to a Hobse . —Oa Monday last , tvo young m ^ n from Hndder-Seld , named Joseph Co wdill and David Ackroyd , were charged before the Leeds magistrates , with being drunk and Bang excessive cruelly to a horse , which , they had in a . gig , in which they , along Tvith . another man were riding , on Sunday afternoon . A policeman vrbo witnessed their conduct , took them into custc'dy ; they cad broken the whip , and Cowdiil , who was driving , was beating the horse nnmereifully with the thick end of tie stick , besides having driven it at sneh a speed as to cause complete exhaustion . The horse and gig were stated to have bfceD hired from Air . Eiam , of Huddersfield . The prisoners said nothing in their defence ; Cowdiil was fined twenty shillings and costs , for cruelty to the horse , and Ackroyd fire shillings for being drunk . The hues were paid .
Eji 3 > zzli > g Monet . —On Tuesday last , a man named Joseph K tin play , who has been for some years shopman to Mr . Robert Wright , shoemaker , Erii'ga'e , was brought before the magistrates &t the Conn House , on a charge of having embezzled various sums of mosey , the property of his employer The prisoner tras taken into custody in the week JTtTions , on a charge of h ^ -nng , at various times , stolen sbo £ s from his employer ' s stock , and from the tvidr ^ c- ^ ties adduced , it appeared that he had b-: en employed by Mr . Wright as a confidential serva . ni for the last twelve years , during which period he m Jh . entire coafidenee- was placed in his honesty . A st-- > rt time since , information was communicated t « Mt . Ji-mes , Hui > erinteiident of the night police
tiist iae prL oner was disposing of boots and shoes in a c aaUesiice manner , in consequence of which ivqjnr . es were stt on foot by Mr . James and Mr . " Wr . shi , which resulted in & confirmation of the £ n ? T > ieicn 3 previousl y entertained , and ha was taken into en-tody . It seems that the prisoner , about eighteen months ago , fiad commenced supplying certain women with boots and shots , at considerably less than half price . The prisoner had left several parcels at the chop of Mr . Simpson , butcher , Norihs : Tr < -i , to be forwarded to the women , who lived at R ^ Mchay , 6 xsd one of j ] 3 en j j { jjj-gf ted jo a Mrs . «^ rct * ier , and containing two pair 3 of shoes , iii roistquence of having been taken to the "RTiuz ilace , fell into the hands of the police .
U :: * ' - 'Uunate ! y Mr . and Mrs . Simpson , though connd . at in their own minds that the prisoner wa 3 the J * i > on who had left the parcel , were unwilling to E «" tar to him , and on account of this link in the chain of evidence being wanriDg , it was thought there was not sufficiert evidence to comnm tbe pri-Eoaer for trial at the Sessions . Mr . Darcton Lupton , ac < ire = siLg the prisoner , said ihat there could be no aura ; doubt of hisgnilt , acd that he had robbed his Esasttr to a Berious amount , and pointed out to him the « ross ingratitude of his conouct . He was then di-iHissed , with the understandinjc that the _ case ^ iiild be re-opened , should anything transpire to Warrant rash a courss . The evidence then adduced troutht k > light the fact , that both Mrs . Dickenson ^ a Mis . Worcester ( to whom he had represented
himself as the proprietor of the shop ) ha 4 purchased * ua paid for articles on the premises ; and it being the dnty of the prisoner to keep &o account of all moneys received by him ., in a book kept fox the pur-Pftf , an examination of . this book was made by Mr . Wr . gbt and Mr . James , conjointly ; but no diBCOTsry of the sums stated ( in one case haif-a ~ crown , and in tne other thn e shUlingB , ) eonld he found . Under thtse eircumstacces , therefore , 111 . Xaipton was applied to , who , after hearing the statement of Mr . "Wri uht to this eSect , concluded that there was EuSc-ent evidence to warrant the re-appearance oi Ev-nsplay , and he was again taken into custody . The whole of the testimony haying been heard , iad tbe depositions taken , he was commiUed . fox trial ca boih charges .

The "Disorderly Hoi ^ e" Ncisanck . —Ou Monday last , a young girl , who gave her name Elizabeth Bird , but whose real name was said to be Burdett , was charged before the magistrates at the Court House , by one of the nightly watch , with disorderly conduct in the street , at an early hour on Sunday morning . Her protectress , a Mary Greenwood , the keeper of a Drothel in Bridge-street , was also placed at theljar , on a charge of having attempted to rescue the " young lady" from the hands of the watchman . Elizabeth ' s conduct , as described by the watchman and other persons , was disgusting in the extreme ; ' !*» - *»« tl T \ , -. n-n «*—¦_ . — . TLT **» T 3 ^*> " VrTTr i % ? s * r * f } it VTr * n
and several respectable partieB came forward to prefer- complaints against Greeawpod , for keepiug a notoriously disorderly house of the very worst description , where it was proved upwards of a dozan young ' ads , tbe eldest not more than sixteen years of » ge , had been frequency known to bo congregated at untimely hours of the night . The magistrates , Mr . Grace and Mr . Lupton , 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 Wafcefield for a month , a 3 a lewd and disorderly character , and ordered- Greenwood to enier into rfcoenizances
with two respectable householders , in £ 20 each , to keep the . peace for three months . In default of this , she was committed for tha : time . Stealin g Pbj > t . —On Monday last , two young lads uanied Win . Howgite , olios Joseph Gatehouse , and John Furness , were brought up at the Court Hon ? e , " on a charge of having stolen a piece of printed calicp . A policeman met the prisoners in Swinegate ^ on Saturday , one of whom had the piece of print tinder his arm . On being questioned he p aid his father had bought it to make dresses for his
mother and sister ; but failing to # ive satisfactory replies to other questions , and being a known thief , he was taken into custody , his companion bting permitted . at that time to go . He was , however , sabsequemly , taken on another charge — that of pocket picking—and they -were placed at the bar together ; the print -was identified by a shopman of Mr . Smith , draper , Brigeate . as his master ' s property , and which had been stolen from within that gentleman ' s shop door , on Thursday or Fricay . They were boih committed for trial . Howgate has been previously coavicted .
-Paying dear for a "Dcck . "—On Monday last , a man narsed Wm . Jackson , was brought up ai the Court House , on a chargo of having kicked ovtr a stall in Vicar-lane , on Saturday niaht , by which the whole stock-in-trade of Mrs . Garbu ! t , an extensive , dealer in those savoury morsels entitled " halfpenny dncks , " had been sent rolling in the kennel . It wonld seem thai Jackson , about eleven o ' clock on the night in question , had , after drinking pretty freely , fallen Imn ^ ry , and visited the complainant ' s stall to get a relish ; he gave her a penny for his duck , and when he had eaten it , declared that she had not given him hiB change . This she denied , and told him to feel in his pockets , when , although he said he had Eqt a halfpenny , one was found there . He then got vexed , and without more ado sent hi 3 foot amongst the duck ? , and away tb > y flew , scattering tbe gravy in all directions . The woman valued her loss at 3 s . 6 d ., which sum he was ordered to pay .
Boxing . —On Tuesday la ^ t , a man named Thos . Archer , residing nt New Road End , was brought before the Magistrates at the C urt House , on a warrant charging him with having been 3 principal iu a prize ffei t , which took place on the 28 h of June , in a field belonging to Mr . Atkinson , at Spenlaile , by which damage to sonie a mount was committed . The name of the ^ tber msn is Riley . but he has got out of the way . The damage , as mada out by the witnesses , amounted to the sum of 12 * . one half o " f which , with the costs , he was ordc-rcd to pay ; besides in addition entTinsr into recoijni-Ziuces with mo sureties in £ 10 each , to keep the peaee for twtlre months .
"A little Bi ief AcTH 0 Hm \"— On Tuesday last , a per ? oa " moving a respcciafaie sphere of li ! e , appeared in tht dock at the Court H « ase , tho charge against him , as entered on the police sheet , being an assault on a watchman . When the cx « e was called on , the accused party presented himself before the beDch with a pair of the cii ^ t awfuJ-Jooking black eyes it is possible to imagine . The mzgmrn u s appeared struck when they beheld the plight he was in , and more so when his aecu-er , a watchmau , named David Bell , did not even present the appearance of a-mark . Bell .-wore quite cool y that he f .. und tne prisoner ia company with a woman in Grorge-street , at four o'clock in the morniDg ; 'hey were making a noise , and he desired taem to desist , upon which he was struck by the prisoner iu the face . He then took him into custody , when he
became very violent , and thrvw himself on tbe ground , declaring he would not ^ o : o prison . In Vicarlaae the y had a severe . ^ trag ^ le aud _ there another watchman tame to his assistance . Tya ? , the other watchman alluded 'o , ' merely deposed to this . When asked by what means the prisoner's eyes had betn brought ti » their present siate . HeL rrp ] jt » d that he had done them himself by falling doicn the prison steps ! Mr . Read told this auarciian of the m ^ ht thai such a thin ^ was impos ? ibi «; , and that he must have been mos-t savagely struck ar . The accused declared that he bad noi fallen dowD ihe prison tteps , but that Bsll , alter saying that he haa Ions : wasted him , and would then pay him oft ' , struck h ; zn in the prison yard , and his blood was th * re then to testify . The magistrate ? , after consulting together , fiaed the prison r iweuiy ! -hiLii ) i { s and costs , intimating that thty shm-id have fined him
£ 5 , but thvy thoatht the warchman had exoeeedt-d his du . 'y by s-triking him in the manner he had done . Tiie fine was paid , aud at the ¦ hsf ot the busings of the day , iir . Lupton , a . dressmt the watchman , told him tha-. he hs . d eviaeDtiy ^ rcaily exceeded his duty ; and a watchman was cever justified in using greater severity than was Decest-ary for his own safety , which it was quite evident haa been done in this case . If a proper statement oi the case was made to tbe Watch Cummutee , it would probabJy lead to his dismissal . We hope , for the creditor the "force , " tbat a statement of the case will be laid before the Watch Committee , and that such a punishment will be awarded to the brute as he richly deserves . He is evidently not fis to be entrusted with the powers which his present situation confer ? , and the sooner he is deprived of the meani of doing mischief the better . We think the magistrates ought to have made a representation of the circumstances to the Watch Committee .
Murderous Assault . —On Sunday forenoon , a quarrel took place in a house of ill fame in Yorketreet , kept by a Mrs . Thompson , between a man named Thomas Carrall , and a girl named aeq M'Cartiiey . Carrall , it appears , was drunk , and some unpleasantness had arisen in aon-« gnence of the female ' s mother wlshm / i her danabier not to have acything to do with him . He had found this our , and declared if he could not have her , nobody else should . He then se i zed a r-zor , and before he conjd be prevented , had drawn it across the unfortunate girl ' s throat , who fell , weltering in blood . The screams of the women in the h-ju-e
alarmed the neighbourhood , by whom tvro watchmen who live in" the same street were called in . On inquiry for the man they fcundhe had goneiips ! airs , ana when they wens there they found that he had at . empted to cui his own throat also . He was laid on the Root bleeaing profusely . ?» 'r . Ward , surgeon , was immediately called , who rendered every necessary aid , and the man was soon after removed in custody , bib wound being only superficial . The wound on the throat Of the woman was at first considertd dangerous , but by the skill of the surg-fon hopes ar * - dow entertained that her life will be spared . Carroll was brought before the magistrates on Monday , and remanded ontii the woman is capable of appearing

CABXISliE . — U . vpopuLABiTy of the Nkw Poor Law . —a numerous nieetiug of tho ratepayers of the tosvnsh'p of Ricker ^ ate took place in the Parish Church , on Friday last , Mr . John Andrew in thH chair ,-to take iu-c consideration the propriety of making a new valua-ion of the properly in tho towns-nip , when it was unanimously agreed thaS wo n « 'W valuation wa ? : icct-s-ary . more ei-peciully as a very correct one had Wn mafio a few years ago . A Coniuiit . ' ce was thi n i . ppoii : t ( . d to examine the rate ana othtr books be ' iinjimg to thu township , with a vew to asc .-riain ti ;« ditf > -rcnce of the expence of working tho JsVw P . v » r Liw as compared with the old ; and to m * ~ m-v > ri'iii < 6 the Board of Guardians , praying tha-st-p-i should be immediately taUe . p to separate ihe towjirhipo : " Rickergaio from the Union , and obtain for it the power to manage its own paupers- as formerly . This course has forced it-elt
upon ihe ratepayers , in consequence of the heavy increase of their bunhens undi-r vhe operation of the r ^ ew Po > " > r Law , ar . d it : s expected that similar proceedings will be adopted by other places in tho U . ' ) ioD . This we consider very ominous as to the feelings ' of the ratepayers in general as regards the expensive working ot t : ; c Now Poor Law , which the Whi ^ s have so mueh &pp ! auded , but who now begtii to feel the hardship of that accursed measure . Tnere is probably no district where parish alfairs were better managed than they were lure under the old law ; and if the ratepayers had foreseen the evi / s which have now < -om upon them by the operanvn of tho ftew Poor Law , they vroulo never have aliowsd it to come iuto operation . It ia not the art at increase of pampers , out tr . e heavy expence of k ' pping a parcel of impudent and domineering offinalR , who are of IjO varihiy use .
