Ett , sirt , e. It is sot so much the plot or incidents as the situation of this agreeable little piece that hava rendered it popular. The ropernaker Chi istoplie is beguiled by his foster , brother, a dis solute youag nohle of the c mrt of Versailles, mote. nudism mar riage with .blade trine, under the belief that the Vicomte means fairly to make the girl his wife as coon as she is away from her own how. Tne sham marriage being effected, Made leine, who takes it all for reality, being attached to her sup. posed husband, is surprised at his reserve, and innocently urges him to avail himself of his marital privileges, which en,.lo , phe, thou.th strongly incited thereto, refutes, in the belief' that he would be trespassing on the Vicomte's ex• elusive rights.

ArrottellY• LI IN !VAL C. NV Y lIEWLET ' S C KAU ITY.—This cue has been betore the court upon various occasions. The following is a short statement of the facts : In 1701, L icy Hewley, who was a Protestant nonconformist, conveyed attain estates of greet value, in Yorkshire, to trustees for the benefit of such poor and godld for y prea ch such poor ers, tor the time being. of Christ's holy gospel, an an d godly widows. for th e time being, of poor and ki ndly preachers of Christ's holy gaped, as the trustees for the time being should think lit ; fur promoting the preaching oaf Christ's holy gospel, in such manner arid in such places as the t.usteee should think tit ; for educating such younganin designed (or the ministry of Christ's holy gospel, as the trus tees should approve and think fit ; and for relieving such godly persons in distress, being fit objects of her own and the trustees' charity. as the trustees should think tit ; provided that the trustees and managers for the time being should, in their dispositions and distributions of the aforesaid charities, have a primary respect to such objects thereof to aforesaid, as were then, or should afterwards be, in York, Yorkshire, or other northern counties in England, not ex cluding those in other places and counties es the trustees and managers s h ou ld think tit ; and the trustees were given p o wer upon the death of a n y of them to elect new trustees. 13y a deed dated in April, 1707, Lady Hewley conveyed to the same persons who were trustee* of the deeds of January, I, 1701, a new ly.ere cted house, to used as a hospital or almshouse fur poor people and by a writing under her band, dated the 10th of May, 1709, Lady Bewley declared that the hospital should be mana l ted according to certain rules, amongst which were the following tt Let none of evil fame or repoit be admitted into the pilaf, but but such as are poor and piously disposed, and of the Protestant religion. Let every slmsbody be one that cen repeat by heart the Lord's prayer the Creed, and ten commandenenu, and Mr. Edward B o wles 's cate chism. Let all the almspeople when not disabled by weak ness, duly repair to some religious assembly of the pro- Instant religion every Lord's uay, forenoon and afternoon, and at other opportunitiee, to attend the ordinances of God." In the course of time the estates leg by Lady Hewley be came vested in trusts el, the majority of whom, though calling themselves presbyt. rims, professed unitarian prioci ples ; and a considerable portion of the rents was for some years applied by them towards supporting a seminary for the education of unitarian ministers, and for the beeetit of poor preachers and other persons of that denomination. In consequence of this, an information was filed at the relation of certain members of a sect called independents, against the trustees and other persons having the management of the charities, praying a declaration that ministers or preachers 1 1 of unitarian belfi ef their congregations, and doctrine, and thoreir wipersons dows and members o of unitarian belief and doctrine, were not fit ob jects of Lady Hewley's charity, and that it might be declared that such dissenters alone as were corn , monly called orthodox dissenters, end as would have heen within the protection of the Act of Toleration of the Ist Wm. & Mary, c. IS, at the time of the foundation of the charity, and would not have been subject to the penalties of the 9th a nd 10th of Wm. 111., c. 32, against blasphemy, could Le considered as co ming within the intent and meaning of Lady liewley, end as intended to participate in the benefit I of her charities, and that the defendant', the then trustees I and managers of the charities, or such of them u the court should think tit, might be removed, and that other trustees and managers might he appointed in their place. The c.iuse was heard before the Vice-Chancellor, in December, 1833, when his Honour dec lared that miuisters or preachers of unitarian belief and doctrine, and their widows and members of their congregations, were not fit objects of the charity, and it was ordered that the defendants should be removed from being unite( a, and that the muter should appoint proper per sons in their place, and approve of • sehe me for the future appli cation of the charity funds, having regard to the above declara tion. This deci-ion was appealed from, and on the sth of Feb., 1836, Lord Lyndhurst, assisted by Mr. Justice rectum anal Mr. Baron Alderson, affirmed the above decree. Two peti tions wereafterwards presented by persons not parties to the cause, to Lc at liberty to go in before them asorthod ter tooropose trus t e es, one on behalf of the whole body of pres byterian congregations of the north-west of England, the other on behalf of the united presbyterians of Lancashire, Carlisle, and Newcastle. The Lord Chancellor allowed the petitions, and his decision w: a confirmed by the House of Lord., after their lordships had taken the opinion of seven judges of the court* of common law. In December, 1837, the master made his report in pursuance of the decree, and thereby certified that he approved of seven gentlemen, named in the report. as trustees of the charity estates, and seven others as sub-trustees or managers of the said estates. All these gentlemen were resident in England ; four of thus were members of a Presbyterian congregation in connexion with the established church of Scotland ; four others were m mbers of a presbyterian congregation in connexion with the secession church of Scotland, and the rest were independents. The master's report was subsequently confirmed by the Vice- Chancellor, in May, 1813, reported in 11 Simone, 592. and the The cast now came on upo n supplemental information ) trustees appointed by the master were made parties. The declaration asked wee, that the charity was founded only for the benefit of English orthodox dissenters, who were of three classes—independents, baptists, and English preeby- Wiens not in connexion with the church of Scotland, and that no members of the Scotch church or the _Secession church were entitled to participate in the charity. A great quantity of evidence was produced on behalf of the relators, by which it appeared there; were in England 4,218 congre gations of orthodox dissenters, not including the Scotch pres byterians. The independents had 2,480 chapels and 12 col leges and other remit arms for the education of preachers. The baptists had 1,733 chapels. The English presbymoat terians were but few in number, and it was. supposed that of the persons of that sect h adl joined the independents. On the other hand, the number of Scotch preabyterians was mu ch smaller ; the Scotch kirk had (iS chapels, eight whichfhad no minister, leaving only 47. The Secession church had 62 chapels, and 13 of those had no minister, so that 49 only could be counted, and neither theLkirk or secession church had any collage. Among the ministers of the Scotch presby terien church now doing duty in England 31 were licensed in Scotland, and in the secession church 48 out of the 49 were licensed in Scotland. Mr. Bothell, Mr. Stuart, Mr. Holt, and Mr. Chandler appeared fur the relators, and contended that none but ortho dox dissenters could benefit by the charity of Lady Howley, who was beret an orthodox English diss enter; the inde pendents, baptists, and English presbyterians were t only sects coming under this denomination. The English pres byterians differed entirely from those of Scotland, and very few now remained. It had already been decided that the established church of England could not take —why, there fore should the church of Scotland ? Why should preach ers 'be benefited by this charity who actually belonged to a beneficed established church, and had come over to England at the instigation of various seets of their countrymen / In this country they appeared to have taken the name of orthodox English diasenters that they might claim a portion of Lady liewley's gift. Beth divisions of the Scotch church had claimed to participate, but each division claimed for themselves the exclusive right ; surely there could be no reason whatever why Lady Hewley should have intended to benefit the free kirk more than the ----------------- emission kirk ? ch If the Scot church were included, t in any foreigners from any part of the writ Id might as well pu , their claim. Thee were French nonnformists in Enid and at the time s r Lady llewley died, but t he Scotch isecemion church was not then in existence. The Danes and the l)utch and all other dissenters were just as much entitled to claim as the Scotch presbyterians. It seemed to be atknow ledaed that, as Lrdy Hawley wee an English lady, that only those persons having an English domicile would be eel enti Scot tled: but many of those claiming were preachers licens in - land, and had come here to be ministers to Teflon' congrega tion', and might be sent back at a moment's theirchearer'. when ever they happened to be displeasing to In Scotland these very persons gloried in their own church ; but, the moment they crossed the border, they were willing, fur the sake of particip atin g in the funds of Lady Ifewley's charity, to term themselves English nonconformists. It must be evident to all that the intention of the foueder of this charity was to benefit those poor persons wilcoe con scientious scruples deprived them of the endowments belong ing to the English church. In Scotland the endowments of the episcopal church had been taken from it, and had been given to the presbyterian church, therefore the pi retina now claiming belonged as much to an endowed church as those of the established church of England. The Scotch presbyte rians el timed an geosiaphiesl dissenters and would of course lose their pretended claim as soon as they might think lit to return to their own country. Mr. Swanston, Mr. J. I'arker, Mr. Wine, Mr. Lloyd, I and Mr. Boughton, for the defendants, contended that the question hail been already concluded by the decisions of the court under which the trustees had been op" inted. In 1536 the cue was argued before the LA Chan cellor, and the petitioners, who were Scotch pr as e mbyteand the riene in 1 England were a llowed to go in before the mter, master had appointed a certain number of that persuasi court on to be trustees;t.the question was again aued before the and the report was co nfirmed. It ba d therefore been, in fact, decided that the defendants were entitled to part. ipate in the charity ; but supposing the question was still open, it was submitted first that the ministers of orthodox presby terian coneregations in England were not excluded from the hens& of the charity by the fact of their being natives of Scotland who had been licensed, or licensed and ordained in Scotland, as members of the established preshyterian church. And it was submitted in the 14 COMI place, that orthodox presbyterians were the sole objects of the charity, meaning those who conformed to the Westminster Confession. Beton the time of Lady Bewley there were two distinct bodies, the preshyterians and independent.; the preshyterians were afterwards merged in the Scotch presbyterians, and as Lady Hawley wa s herself u presbyterian, they were the only person s now entitled. A great num ber of writings by M r.ons of various religious tenets were cited to show the distinction between prerthyte nails and independents; t hat the En g lish preehyterians had nr TO' joined the independents, hut that a unit•ron ianshad been e ff ec t e d between them anti the Scotch preshy, wh entertained the come opinions as Lady Bewley; that at •s -lions times this union had been shown clearly to e xist, and that Engli.h presbyterian ministers had officiated in the chapels of Scotch presbyterians, and ministers of the latter denomination hail taken the pMce of 11,riglish preshy preachers. The hearing ol the case hail not yet been terian con cluded. -_ COURT OF ulars QUEEN'S BENCH. tit In Itunea. Itnotwa T. PARIIAM.—Cut' TT COP MTS.

It appeared that half a crown bad been given to Lucy Ingram, a pauper of weak intellect, to go from the Sheppey workhouse to Chatham, where she bad before resided, atter • vain attempt bad been made to induce the guardians of the Medway union to take her under their charge • and also, that the sum of 15s. had been given to Jane Nightingale to find her way to Stonehuuse, it being stated to her that she would find • (nip in London for Plymouth. She com plained of the amount being too small, and wart obliged to beg her way there, having been on the road for n earl y six k wees.—Sir F.

It was also contended that the Medway u nion had nothing to do with the case of the pauper who had beeline chargeable to the parish of Stonehuuse ; that Mr. Brightman, the guar dian, was not present when the half-crown was given to Lucy Ingram; that the other two defendants were not in a position to bear the expenses of bring proceeded against by criminal information • and moreover, that they had acted under the direction of the board of guardians.—Mr. Bonn followed on the same aide.—Mr. Pashley then, in support of the rule, contended that all the facts upon which it had been obtained were (oily made nut. I The Court having con sulted for a short time, Lord Denman said that this was a case of painful interest. the class of perss were charged with h to the offence had very great power, and they too as use it with very little attention to the interests or comfort of the unfortunate beings under their care. To assiat a pauper with money to go to his proper settlement might be very desirable ; but to give paupers money in order to cast them upon the world, and set them 'that with a new inquiry as to their settlement, was exactly the evil which the act of parliament was intended to re medy. It was right that overseers should understand sl., th to at if they committed such an offence the penalty of which they were liable, was to come out of their own pockets, and was not to be allowed out of the rates. He thought, moreover, that if a proper cue were made out, they might be subjected to • criminal information, and he also nmeidered there were reasons why . that would be the hest remedy. The rule had been obtained by a true ex planation of the facts, but some statements had now been made which took part of the sting out; it was nevertheles that s a e p r ima facie case or improper c o n duct. It appeared th woman who had been sent to Stonehouse hail made applica tion to be removed there ; and taking that fact in connexion with the explanation of some expressions which had created suspicion in the mind of the court ; there tieing, moreover, some doubt as to any legal offence having been in this case committed, it not being clear how an indictment could he framed, the rule must be discharged, but, under the circum stances, without coats. BAIL COURT. Sating* In nano. Coi'NTY COritia —MA niqi‘tutt.—fdr. Dissent moved for a rule to show came why a mandamus should not issue, di rected to 2''.J. Eagle, Esq., judge of the Suffolk c ount y court, commanding him to sign the final order of d that the an insolv ent, whose name wan not mentioned. It appeare insolvent in question had duly nresented his petition, obtained his interim order, and pia‘ed the first hearing. On behalf of the creditors, a solicitor of the name of Church yard stated that he did not intend to oppose the insolvent, but merely wished that some arrangement should be male e ln after the fi nal order, an the purpose of paying them. the present case the insolvent was an officer in the navy on half pay with a large family, one of his eons having lately lost a lee, and two other of his children being blind. When he came up for his final order the judge refused to sign it unless the insolvent would agree (as we untie rstood the learned counsel) to set aside, out of nn income of 1091. per annum, 481. fur the benefit of his creditors. This proposition WO rejected, on the ground that if it were complied with it would have the effect of bringing the insolvent again before the court. Cron this refusal on the part of the in solvent the judge declined to sign his final order. The learned counsel now argued that, by the terms of the 6th and oth of Victoria, the judge had ne discretion in the matter, but that it was compulsory on him to sign the order. The 4th section of the sth and oth Victoria provided that, after the insolvent had gone through the preliminary inves tigations, he should have a day named for his final order, unless he bad been guilty of some misconduct. The judge had fired the 21st of March, 1848, fur granting the order, and on that day Mr. Churchyard did not offer any opposi tion, but wished half of the insolvent's income tote b set aside for his creditors, upon w hi c h the judge camedeter mination now complained of, 11) the llth of Geo. IV. c. 20, a. 47, it was enacted that all contrac null ts and entvoid. ered The into w ith naval people on half-pay should be proposition on the part of the judge be submitted was in contravention of the terms of the act of parliament —Mr. Justice Coleridge : Was the order tondered to the judge to sign I—Mr. Dissent replied in the affirmative.—llis lordship said he would consider the matter. GHEVILLit r. STULTZ.—This was a case lately tried in this court to set aside a wilt of outlawry, in which the plaintiff was the lion. Mr. Greville and the defendant the well known tailor.— Mr. Beavan now moved, in accordance with the verdict, to set aside the writ` f outlawry whic trial of the cause it appeared th.,t at the time of issuing the writ Mr. Greville was not in hogland—that being the only question for the jury.—The court granted the application. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Sittings la Banco. GOODLAKS V. KINO.—ACKNOWLEDOMENT or DRET TO TAKE IT OUT OF THE STATUTE or LIMITATIONB.—ea This was an action on • promissory note for 251. The pl was Statute of Limitations. The verdict was for the plaintiff. A rule had been obtained to set aside the verdict and enter it for the defendant. —Mr. Petersdortf now showed cause aga;nst the rale, and contended that the following letter was • sufficient acknowledgment of the debt, to take it out of the statute : In reply to your note, just received, it grieves me to my that my preieut paiition precludes my complying with your reasonable re quest. nes fact is that my circumstan ce s are so straitened that I fear 11 my a•diton press me, I shall be obliged to have recourse to the insolvent Court. This act, however, should not prejudice your claim , and I hope the time Is sot tar distant when it will he in my power to return every penny I owe you. The Court, however, without bearing Mr. Serjeant Tal oned and Mr. Parry in support of the rule, was of opinion that, although this letter held out hopes, it anything but pointed to a promise to pay presentlyKule absolute. HOPWOOD V. THORN.—LINCL.—This cue came before the court on a rule for a new trial. It was an action for libel and slander, brought by one dissenting minister against another. It appeared that the plainti ff hail been formerly in business at Southampton, but having retired from it bad qualified himself for the ministry of the independent per- BUSSiOn, and became minister at a place called Meacham. Thera he had a difference with a Mrs. Barfield, one of his congregation, who spread reports against him of which he complained, % paid demanded an Investigation, in the course of which the defendant became the champion of Mrs. Bar field. A unt,esPoen ensued between the deendant and a Mr. Rnt which contained matter alleged to ( be libellous nn th tho plain tiff, but h Chief Justice at the trial thought se were privilegetde communicatione, and the verdict pseud for the defendant on that IMO. An investigation was agreed to, but went off on account of the parties not being able to agree as to the terms on which it was to bo held. A meeting of ministers did, however, take place on the subject at the instigat ion of the defendant and Mrs. Barfield, at which resolution's were passed. The defendant came to Thatcham to attend this meeting, end took that opportunity of endeavouring to induce the congregation not to attend the plaintiff's ministry, stating that th he was " a rogue, _ a nd that he could prove him one, and at he had cheated his brother-in-law, with whom he was in lousiness, of 2,0;101." There were also alleged libels contained in letters written to a Mr. Annesley. A verdict passed far the plaintiff damages, Ilia for the elands r, and 1001 for the labels. A rule was obtained to show cause why that verdict should not he act aside, or why there should nut be a new trial, or why judgment should not be arrested.—Mr. Cockburn, Mr. James, and ?dr. Lush keno(w, d cause, and contended, firstly, that the woro's sp the plaintill were not epoken of him as a minister, but hail such reference to his capacity in tha office as necessarily to affect hie character in the office, and imputed to him a present want of woefulness by reason of his former conauct ; secondly, that the letters which con tained the alleged libels were not privilege d commuuica done ; they differed from those written by the defendant to Bunt, inasmuch as those letters referred to the terms of the investigation ; but those to Mr. Anneoley were written after that investigation had coucluded,when the dele tut ant took that opportunity of wiling the libel% complained of.—Mr. Serjt. lalfourd and Mr. Atherton were heard in support of the rule, and contended that on the atehoritiee it was clear that slan derous words must be so spoken us to impute misconduct to a person in the character in which they are alleged to injure ham.—The case was only part heard when the court ad journed. J DOES' CIEAMBEItS. Tex Qt . F.RN WII.LIV44.—ATTE \II . T TO DRPRAT THE END'S OT Just ter --Th a was an application to Mr. Justice Fade to admit to bail lli my Williams, who is at present in Neweate, and who stands committed to take his trial at the he Central Criminal Court fore plate robbery.—A person had represented himself as attending on the part of the pro mention said it was not his intention to offer any oppinition to the application for hail, and if his lordship saw no utijeo • tins to the prisoner bring liberated on the bail woo were about to offer themselves he had none.—Mr. Justice Erle requested tho production of the original depositions, and they were read by the (dark of the Lambeth Politx-court, who W2A present. It appeared from part of the evidence that Williams, during his flight immediately after the rob bery, drew his knife from hi s pocket, deliberately opened it, and with a desperate oath, threatened to bury it in the abdo men of a gentleman's gardener who had attempted to stop him. On hearing the depositions the judge said there wasquite sufficient on the Gee of th m to justify the refusal of admit ting the prisoner to bail, and he should, therefore, refuse the application.—The magistrate's clerk remarked that it was somewhat singular that nu application had been made to the court fur a copy or • view of the depositions in the case by any pi rams on behalf of ,lrs. Stevenson, as those would enable them to form a correct opinion whether the r aw we. one in which hail could lie properly accepted.—Mr. Justice Erie rem irked that a short time ago an attempt had been mostimpeoperly made by certain parties to obtain the liberation of u notoriously bad character, who had since been transported, and on that occasion tiny would have most likelt been successful but for the very proper information of the governor of Newgate prison. Finding that they were disappointed in their efforts to get the person out on bail, the parties, on his return to prison, made an attempt to rescue him. Since that circumstance he Mr. Justice Erle) was very particular in admitting persons to ( bail, particularly when the sessions were so near at hand, and when se a saw certain persons mixed up with the a,iplication.—The mgis trate', clerk mentioned that the same parties mixed up with the ease alluded to by his lordship were also concerned in this.—The parties here alluded to, as well as the person who bad represented himself as appearing for the prosecution made an immediate exit. It was afterwards ascertained that Mrs. Stevenson had not given instructions to any person to -ar before the judges on behalf of the prosecution. - COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Bakke Mr. omemiseloner Xmas. Ctl AROE or RECKLK.OI 'rosins°, &c. — J. Verdi, wool len warehouseman, of Cheapside, applied for his certificate. — The application was supported by Mr. Lawrence.—Mr. Linklater, fir one of the assignees (Mr. Goad), said he nth he did not offer any direct opposition to the cercate, as ter assignee, Mr. Nerris (of the firm of Norris, Sykes, and Fisher), had iostructeel his friend Mr. Asharst to do so. lie would merely call the attention of the court to the fact that though the profits on the bankrupt's trade only amounted to 159/., his trade expenses exceeded 1,500/. ' and his per. eons' expe nses were nearly 900/. lie had also dealt largely in accommodation bills, having drawn on ten persons purely for his own accommodation. The amount of such hills outstanding at the date of the fi at was 3A51. lie had clearly been insolvent two years before his bank ruptcy, and had sought to relieve himself by large his ma ma of goods to particular creditors. In addition to his own bill transactions, he had become security for other par ties, who had since failed, and these claims now fell on the c.tate. Another feature in the case was that the bankrupt, on the Ist of October, had transferred his furniture to his father.holaw, as security for a debt of 3501.—Mr. Adult's% said he opposed the certificate on the ground of reckless trad ing, extravagance in living, administration of his own estate, and unjust preference to his father. The balance skeet only comprised 11 months trading, from lit January to 30th No vember, 1847 ; it COMM. need with a capital of 6441., but it ap peared from his books that he was possessed of 1,400/. more, which he alleged was a deb; due to his father, to whom he had assigned his furniture as security on the 30th Septem ber. Ile had 14,0001. worth ot stock on the lst of January, and had bought 50,0001. worth more; while his profits were put down at 1591., and he had only given up to the assignees about 2,0001. worth of stock. Be explained his small amount of profit by alleging heavy losses on his fancy stock; hut this only applied to the old stock with which he had commenced, and not at all to the 50,000/. worth of goods, some of which had been purchased so lately as September. In addition to his expenses of 2,4341., there was an item ot 1,6611. for interest, discouuts, allowance on money b irrowed, and allowances to custome r for cash paj" ments—together 4,0951. Ile had kept a country house ann a horse, and had lived in a most reckless way. In September he had ceased to buy, and then sold all he could, thus making preparations for the fiat; and all that was given up to the assignee , were some bad remnants that could scarce.y be sold at any price.—Mr. Lawrence admitted that the case was not one where the certificate could he granted forthwith, but thought the blame attributable rather to the present system of credit than to any dishonest intention on the part of the bankrupt. The best evidence of this was the excel:. nt manner in which the books had been kept. The sum owing to creditors fur goo hile ds was 8,111 V.; to creditors holding security, 9,6521.; w there was en amount of liabilities of 18,711 ~which appeared on both aides the balance sheet. No imputation could be founded on the fact of the bankrupt having bought more largely at one period of the year, and sold more largely at another; fur every one knew that the course of trade re quired this.—The Commissioner said this was a case in which the bankrupt's conduct had been most extraordinary; his trading had been reckless, and his expenses most cite, Tenant. lie had also, when he knew he was insolvent, allowed creditors to help themselves by taking his goods, and thus injuring the estate. This was what was celled administering his own estate ; and if the public had a due regard fur their own interests, they would discourage all private arrangements with creditors. The amount of 1,60(.1. for discounts and other matters was most exorbitant, and must excite the strong condemnation ot the cre eir ditorsos . The assignees had been perfectly justified in e t c oppition. Under all the circumstances of the case, he thought it bis duty to suspend the certificate far two years. Protection to be granted tar a month, renewable conditionally. the POLICE. — YFATERDA T. CLERKENWELL. Juvareite DELINQUENCY. H. 1 and J. Smith, brothers, the former 14 and the latter 9 years of age, were charged by Mr. W. Nichols, residing in March inete Druwc, with having been concerned a robbery.

Witness immediately seized and detained him until the arrival of a policeman, when he gave both prisoners into custody. lie recognised them as the sons of a highly-respectable gentleman residing in the neighbourhood. —Mr. Sidney, of listen-garden, who at. tended for the prisoners, said they were the sons of a highly respectable gentleman, and they had no cause whatever to resort to such a disgraceful mode of obtaining money. Their father was in court, affected to tears—The younger pri soner said that he was prompted to the offence by his bro ther, which the latter did not denygainsMt r. Nichols said pr he ht he on did not fish to press the charge a theyounger i soner, as be thong was led by his brother. They were both very young, and be considered that some sum rimy punishment ought to be inflicted upon the elder prisoner. — Mr. Tyrwlaitt said that he had only one course to adopt ; that was, to commit the prisoners for trial, unless he (Mr. Nichols) prmed for their discharge.— 7 to 4 on Dover, who made ell the running, and won by • Month.

Thecontinued slemand for, and speedy absorption of, all money stock that is brought to market, exercise a more decided action in the support and the improve ment of public values than do political causes of unfa vourable aspect now, and viewed by . many as pro spectively destined to become worse, in the reverse sense. Speculative sales for time to some extent, although not numerous, had no effect in staying the ascent of prices ; the money purchases of stock to much less amount, but with ready takers for all that offered, kept the market firm, and bore tip prices. Con sols w, re actually boughtat 84! for money, and for great part of the day ranged between 84; to ;. They left off at 841 to for money, and 8I to 1 for the June account, with a steady and promising appearance. Stock was worth more for present transfer than for time, as will be seen by the " backwardation " of the prices. Reduced Threes were 82,1 to 1. Three-and a-Quarter per Cents., 83:i to ;. Long Annuities, 83 to 9-16. Exchequer Bills, 395. to 435. premium. India Bonds. 21s. to 255. premium. Bank Stock, 190 to 2. India Stock, 229 to 232. Foreign stocks fail to attract the attention of spe culators, and the dealings were confined chiefly to Spanish and Mexican. Spanish Fives were called 13 I toy ; the Threes, 23 i to 4 ; Passive, 31 to ~. Por tuguese, 17! to 18!. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 42 to 3; the Fours, 62 to 3. Russians were lower, at 84 to 8. Mexican, 161 to 1. Peruvian, 33 to 6. Brazilian, 67 to 70. Chilian, 80 to 3. The accounts from the cotton districts of Lancashire to-day are but indifferent. Credit had been some what checked by the late extensive failures at Glas gow, Aberdeen, and in this city. The troubled aspect of affairs in the north of Germany had materially affected the course of business. The blockade of the Elbe, actual, or threatened, for it scarcely appears yet in the shape of a positive fact so far as neutrals, had naturally paralysed business operations for all that part of Germany. served by the river and railway communications of the Hansetowns, more especially of Hamburg, the great emporium of the trade. Should the mediation undertaken by this government in con nexion with that of Russia not, however, be successful within a moderate period in at least procuring a sus pension of hostilities between Denmark and Prussia re presenting Germanic pretensions and interests, it may be expected that mercantile activity will find • way through Holland for opening communications with and forwarding necessary supplies of goods and products into the heart of Germany. The following caution from the I' consul at Liverpool wasposted lathe Exclas.,. p room en Monday : in consequence of the:proclarnation made by the King of Denmark on the 4th of May, whereby the free ports of Hamburg, Bremen, end Lubeck are declared to be in a state of blockade, I have to warn all captains of the risk they run In trading to those ports, as they will not be allowed to proceedon their voyage or to any Prus-ian port. And 1 more par ti t ularly warn all captaim carrying the Hanseatic llagot the great danger to which they axe exposed from Danish cruisers In putting to oes.--4A005 Vi ulna, Vioaoooottl. histed W. .7 itl7 V 9:‘ • L AW LIFE ASSUP • tat • SPEC 11 u (l i rf4 • • a- , virolyTic theit, oti .v4., of the sorplus ' oTtne I • oaks la herein further given, LE. - , will be held, at the like h arid .
