(Loud cheers.) THE APPOINTMENT OF SECRETARY FOR WAR. with the Metropolitan pollee. He said that the motion he had be honour to make to the house was by no mesas • new rpretiore but was one which had met with the repeated and careful coneideratioo of c ommissions em panted by the crow n and of committees Domed by the house, at differest limes 'aud under difficult circumrancer There had been • remarkable unaeirnity in the coulusious to which these oom mildew said committer had arrived ; and that unanimity had arisen from the prominent fact to which all had ad. verted —namely, the difference of area over which the Cor poration of the City exercised its control as compared with that of Oven other corporiton over which a minder judo diction existed. Mr. Rogers, who held au office in the City, in his evidence before the committee of 1854, mentioned that when the bill for the anion of the two forces win proposed by Lord litelboaree's government, the City having failed, by petalo Ent to the House d Commons and afterwards to the crown, to throw out the measure. at length achieved their object by appealing to every corporation in the United ' Kingdom. That showed the determination of the City, but he thought that was a game that might be played ore too often. He hoped the house would rot be influenced by means of this kind now, but would exercise its own judg ment, sad deliberately unsidering the recommendation" of the committees and commissions, would look only to the question whether the change proposed would be conducive to the public interest, the efficiency of the police, ad the main - tensor ot peace and order in the metropolis. (Hear.) He must do the corporation the justice tory that they had exhi bited amongst their many virtues great ability, energy, and unwearied activity in resisting any attempt which had been made to effect anv improvement that did not originate with themselves. (" Hear, bear," and cries of " No, no.") It had been his fortune to deal with these subjects fre quently. Twice be had unsucesadully reposed bills for corporation reform, founded upon the report of the com mittee of 1854. and another Home Secretary had made • similar attempt with • similar result. The only cue in which he hod succeeded was in the removal of the Smithfield Cattle-market, and in that only after a most determined resistance. He understood that there wee to be no °Nee d= to the introduction of the Dili, sod it would not be seammary for him to go at any length into its details, because the bill was contained in its principle, which was the amalgamation of the Metropolitan and City police. It would repeal the act under which the City polio' was coostituted, and would make provision for piecing the City in the same position as other metropolitan districts in regard to the payment of the men, giving to it the same benefit as ether parishes in the shape of contribu tions from the consolidated food. And the change would be effected with due consideration for all the officers and Poo ocinatittiting the retest police force of the City, and oleo with due regard to the convenience of that peat mer cantile sad trading community. Mr. CRAWFORD said it was neither maul nor courteous to offer opposition to the introduction of a bill, especially whet the motion was made by a member tithe government. It was not his intention to ask the house to sweet as opinion at the present moment upon the motion of the right hon. baronet ; and, that being the case, he would best perform the duty he owed to his constituents if he ou tdated biaxial( with saying that, on th e proper and Yet ocession, which would be upon the motion for the reading of the hill, he would be prepared on flask owe / with other gentlemen, to discuss the matter with Moms to the general principles which had been stated tio the hose by the Mairetou7 of State. (Hear, bar.) Ids theeght he should best perform his deity to hie mossdr bassishy moving as a future occasion that the bill be seed • essendthne that day six mouths. He hoped there weld be afa sad fair discussion of the meaeure, sod for his own part he entertained but little fear of the result. Mr. Alderman SIDNEY said the right lion. foilsman slated that he founded this moors priacipally upon ra peas given by ecomimicas and committee, of the hose, nail be also stated that is 1838, when the late Sir Robert Peel was • mambo ef thscoommittes, certain reports were eras from whisk be adorned an oriels that it wasdarimble leandeposabethe City and metropolitan police forces. He S ew s& mesther) might, however, motion thin remarkable that le the fe&wi parliament the police fore. wee in the City of as it now existed—(hor, i that was, be thought, the best answer be give et haimi reports which bad formed the groundwork of the right hon. gentleman's argument. He should sot sMampt on the present occasion to defend the =1.1.0f the City, as that could be does 0 the mood reading ; but he must opens his megrim that the right boa. gentleman should have said last this bill oily concerned the City of Leedoe. Itte city of Masehesear, and the adjoining borough of Salford, bed eopente bodies of police under distinct jorialictioas, and if the right hoc. tleman was rareedul in carrying this moose thmeg pardoneet, he would be guilty of • flagrant ineessiessep oars he extended it to Manchester and every edam , siby Is the kingdom. He would ask the • loon. gentlassa, whether be thought he was justified in *as attacking the prima* of local self-government! The LORD MAYOR felt emu little difficulty in AUK to dims the house, bemuse be thought that in all probability the serial for introdocin the bill would be agreed to Oilmen nay lengthened debate, and be had not intended =di. het the remarks of the Secretary of State for the Deorliment were so erroneous, and would be so udelhionous if they remained unanswered, that he felt bound to detain the house • abort time. He believed that in the history of the house there never was • more unooustitutional preposition brought forward than that of the right bon. ponderosa. (Hear. hear.) Why, the home bad been ia the habit yearly of protecting the country and the coati adios of the country from the evil of a standing army, by pusiag the Mutiny &11, and yet the right bon. gentians& pooped • measure which would give him the coated of a body of 10,000 armed and discrplised men, an army which, loader hie direction, would he at liberty to come sad go as it liked, and to carry on any system of espierwrga, andoder go other control whatever. (Hess hear.) Why, the circurnstaaeas cooneeted with the seldom of the metropolitan police were them. They had bees bleated by this country beaten they had been in junta-police and in competition with the City polio. The one was under the control of the Secretary of State, and the other under local self government Ile fearlessly said that these tee bodies mold not be oriented for officiary. With regard to the City of London police forma for physique, intelligence, and everything that made • policeman valuable, they were far superior to the metropolitan force ; and the co • of the City, he was perfectly sore, were prepared to go into any inquiry whatever on this point. They said that the police was essentially a local force, end ought to be under load control. They most be sees and ham and mot exaseise their power under local seporrisias. and these wee the 'sly terms under which the force could be safe. They bad seen the centralising influence extending first to one district and then to another. It had been extended to fifteen miles round the metropolis, and then into the dock. yards. It was said that the introduction of police into the dockyards had been a saving to the country, but that saving was elected at the expense at the safer the metope. ' Man districts, where outrages were continually com mitted on life and property. He s • not hesitate to my, that if the outrages and prole robberies which had recently occurred In the metropolis bad hap pened in the City of London, the comma= would have diennined the head of the department, and regarded the men who failed to arrest the perpetrators as unworthy to wear the uniform of a ioliceman. Much had been said as to the expense of the City polies, but be was prepared to show that it was not only leas expend,* but fill ZOOM efficient than the Metropolitan VOW,. He hoped the right hon. gentleman would find that the City of London was true to de trust—that it was true to upholding a better and cheaper police than that of the metropolitan districts, and that it represented the prhaciple of local self. georemest, which, if destroyed in the City at London, would ewe eases to exist elsewhere, and which the noble lord at the head of the government bad spoken of in such elapsed terms. (Hear, bear.) Mr. NORRIS said be should oppose the bill, not on so ftest of his sympathies for the City of London, but from • firm conviction, after considerable deliberatioe. of He ulti mate mimeos, if pond, to the borough which he repro noted. Mr. GRIFFITH visited to uk the °obis lad whether be thenght it arabrabie, sad respectful to the Here of Car asses, that the rigs of throe departments of state, rawly, rem War, the Navy, and of Foreign Affairs should be inwertnted is the Here of Lards?

Mr. finddlistaa, Q.C., and Mr. Lloyd were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Hairy James for the defeudiuit. It appeared from the evidence of the plaintiff that be was a solicitor's sleek, and the defendant weir • groom and post master, in Biehopegateotreet. On the 17th November last he went to the defendant and complained that on the day before, when he purchased some postage stamps, the der fendent had given him 2d. too little in change. The de fendant maid he would not return the plaintiff any money, and became very enraged. The pl a i n tiff complaiaed that he had received wrong change, when the defendant seised him by the arm and back of the neck, ran him out of the shop, gave him • push, and threw him out upon the pavemciat. He fell with his knees upon the kerbstone, and, rolling over, fell upon his arm, which was broken. lie was taken home and attended by &medical men for the space of two months, for which be had paid six guineas. He had been prevented from attending to hie business for three months, during which time he had lost bit salary of V. per west. He now suffered from acute pains in the arm. The defence was that the plaintiff came into the defen dant's shop saying that ha had received 2d. too little in change a day or two before. The defendant showed him • notice which he had in bit shop to the effect that no oont plaints as to change would be entertained after the person complaining had left the shop. The plaintiff thereupon abused the defendant, calling him • thief and swindler; upon which the latter sent for • policeman, but the mu being unable to find one, the defendant put the plaintiff out himself, but with no more violence than was necessary. The jury, after retiring for about belt an hour, returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff—damages 251., being of opinion that the plaintiff did commit • disturb ance m the defendant's shop, but that the latter had used more than necessary violence in ejecting hint therefrom. roadie'. Mr. Serjeent pxocprr said he understood that this bill wee proposed for the purpose of plain the police of one town under one management, and be did set suppose that his constituents would have any fear that this bill would be a precedent for future legislation in reprd to the manage ment of their police. He believed that he should be able to support the bill on the sewed reading. Sir H. BRUCE thought that this was a wet inopportune period for bringing forward such a measure, and that it would have the effect, if it were passed into law, of creating a most noplesiant feeling between the corporation and the royal &may. Sir J. SHELLEY said that if he had any faith in the sincerity of the opposition of the Corporation of the City to this bill he should oppose it, but the City Corporation did not, on a former occuioo, endeavour to obtain municipal government forth. whole of the metropolis. The truth was this was a struggle for patronage, and nothing more. He believed that his constituents had been Waled. (Oh, oh.) Well, he would be happy to meet them, and to argue the question with them, and he believed that when the matter came to be inquired into, they would les that the corporation had never shown the slightest desire to give to any part of the metropolis the rights and privileges which they possessed. Si, G. GREY, in reply, said that as to the time and cir =mimed of introducing the bill, no one could be more sensible than he wee of the great loyalty exhibited by the corporation on a recent ocassica. and it had been his daty to state the grati fi cation experienced by her Majesty. But he did Mime why those feelinge should interfere with the progress of this measure, which wee pot proposed in come pesos of the late =fortunate but in cond. queues of the reports presented °°e ki nia th e rcionse in former years. No doubt the arraneements merle up= the late oc casion being ineufficiest had called public attention and that of the government to those reports, and the government would have shrunk fins doing their duty if they had not proposed this measure, with the view of lamenting any such occurrences in future. It was mid there were great crowds of people in the (Sty to me the pro =rim But the corporation - knew, or might have knows, that there would be large crowds there ; and, indeed, it was distinctly understood that the sanction of her Majesty to the precarious had bees obtained on the expert condition that effectual mines would be taken to Forget °opinion arising during its propels through the City. Th e ameranoss be had received were cot performed. The arrangements oat of the City weee admirable, and he felt omitted that if Sir R.

Tli - tlTis . eirjw4ro -- than. _The pl,i#ll, in July, 1862, was about to build a home la Lowe;Atkine.• I road, Clapham-park, and he seat seam al Ms intention to the local Board of Weeks, let he sent it thro* the poet instead al dthverthg as was his duty, at the proper office. The board did not receive the notice ; and even if they had done so, there would have been this irregularity on the part of the plaintiff, that he allowed oily 5 snaked of 7 days to elapse before he commenced operations. Another eircumataace was that on previous ocoasioos there had bees disputes between the plaintiff and the board as to notices. The lint thing the board knew in reference to this particular building was when they received a report from the Clapham surveyor that the work was begun ; and they thereupon re solved unanimously that their officers be instructed to demo lish the building. Accordingly, about seven o'clock the same evade' the clerk, surveyor, contractor, 33 labouring men, and three policemen , proce e ded to the spot and demolished the home, the work occupying them for several hours. This was done without the plaintiff receiving any preliminary sodas, and the lint he knew al the matter was when he was Informed in the course of the night that his house wee pulled down. The plaintiff commenced an action to recover for the loss which he had sustained, and at the trial i damages for was entered foe him. Sebsegnently a rule was obtained to eater a verdict for the defendants, end the question sow was whether this rule should be made absolute. Mr. Denman, Q.C., appeared to show came against the rule, and Mr. Bevil!, Q.C., and Mr. Robinson to support it. the coarse al the argument it was urged on behalf of the board that they were justified is what they had done by the 76th section cf the Metropolis Local Government Act, which stated that in the event of buildinp being erected without notice to the board, they might demolish them ; but on the other baud it was contended that before going to such an extreme length they must summon the offending party, so as to beer what be had to my ; inas much as the principle pervaded all oar law that no man should be punished in person or estate without first having an opportunity of being heard upon the matter. The Lord Chief Justice, in giving judgment, said he thought that the verdict for the plaintiff ought to stand. Role absolute. It was agreed that the amount of the damages should be settled out of court. COURT OF EBCHSQIIEB.—Arzn. 2I.

The trial took place at Lincoln, before Chief Justice Erie, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff. Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., and Mr. Field now allowed cause ageing a rule which had been obtained by Mr. Bovill, Q.C., to set &aide the verdict for the plaintiff and enter a verdict for the defendant., or for a new trial, on the ground of mi.- ' direction and the verdict being spinet the evidence. The question chiefly turned upon the ocestroction of the Witham Navigation Acts and the acts of the Great Northern Rail way Company, and involved claims to a very large amount against the defendants. Mr. Bovill, Q.C., Mr. Bodes Q.C.. and Mr. Beasley having been heard in support of the rule, The court took time to consider their judgment. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. ATRII. 21.

Shortly before her death she bad made a will, in which she laft the bulk of her estate to Mr. Gard, a certificated convey ancer in the same town, a gentleman also of advanced years, and an old friend both of the deceased and her husband, The jury returned a verdict in favour of the will on a ll the issues but one ; and upon that they found that the deceased bad given instructions to Mr. Gerd to insert the names of the three women for bequests of Si. each ; that the said instructions were present to Kr. Gard's mind when he procured the exec:Woe of the will, but that they were absent from the testator's memory at that time. Upon this the learned judge pronounced the will tike void, but having some doubt upon the point, he had granted leave to move to enter the verdict for the defendants. lir. Collier Q.C. (with him Mr. Loper) moved for a rule raid accordingly, and also for • new tnal, on the ground of misdirection, of the verdict being against evidence, and of the point not being raised by the pleadings and coming upon the defendants by surprise. The leaned counsel strongly insisted on the absence of any finding of frAid, and con tended that the verdict of the jury did not substantiate the plsa that the document propounded was not the will of the deceased. SirC. Omen/ell granted a rale nisi, as prayed. Mr. Kerslake, Q.C. (with him Mr. Cole) said that in the of the rule being made absolute for • new trial, he should move, in pursuance of leave also given by Mr. Jostles Bytes, to enter • verdict for the plaintiff, on the tome of whmher the will had been procured by undue influence.

The defendant Howlet, who Mall bore marks ef severe punishment, was fully committed for trial epos the charge of manslaughter. The defendant William thoinimd, who had acted as time keeper during the fight, end James Lewis WWI held to bail, two 'unitise el 50i. sash; and JIIMII• BMW mood one suety for 4W. Mr. Charles Pignett, of 26 einSisn-street, Brompton, and Mr.Metalow Merrick, of Queen-attest, Chabot, spied whoa: summoseas were ensued for causing to be printed and circulated placards conveying misrepresentation' of the evi dence given by Lord Ranelagh before the Royal Commis sinners appointed to inquire Into the condition of the volunteer corps, attended before Mr. Arnold at this court. Mr. Poland appeared oa behalf of Lord Ranelagh (who was provost); and Mr. Orridge for the defeadanta. Xr. Orridg e said he had already conferred with Mr. Poland se to the course which ought to be taken in the present case. The ohmage against Mr. Meyrick was that •he had written the libel, and that against Mt. Pignett that he had circu lated it. He therefore proposed to take Mr. Xsyrick'e came AM. That gentleman had placed himself entirely in his (Mr. Orridge's) handa and be should not be doing him justice if he did not at ones state that be was desirous to apologies to Lord Ranelagh for any islitry or annoyance he might have oocarioned him. Mr. Meyrick deeply regretted that in con sequence of his dismissal from the corpshy Lord Ranelagh, and which dismissal he thought was unjustifiable, he was induced to circulate some handbills which he now knew oontaiosd a garbled statement of Lord Ranelagh's evidence before the royal oommissiooers. Mr. Meyriek made an apology to Lord Ranelagh for the injury and annoyance he had caused him. _ Mr. Arnold—And retracts, of course? Mr. Orridge—Yes, he retracts, sad says that the bilk contained a misrepresentation of Lord Banelagh's evidence. Mr. Poland, on the part of Lord Ranelagb, had very little to say after the very ample apology which Mr. Orridge had offered. In the Brat instance Lord Ranelagh was disposed to treat these handbills with supreme indifference and contempt, but when he found that they had been pia carded near the head-quarters of his regiment, and that they had been mint down to Brighton with the heading put on it by some foolish person, " Pot the thief, shoot him at the review :" with a view of being circulated amongst the corps attending there, he thought it his duty to put • stop to their further circulation. A written apology of a very ample character was then put in, and also one from the other defendant, who said he had attacked Lord Banelagh on politial not private grounds, but saw now the mistake be had made. Mr. Arnold then dismissed the summons, and all the parties left the court, apparently very well satisfied with the manner in which the matter had been disposed of. SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH COMPANY.

With reference to the charge against Lieutenant Lillingston, the court found that he bed been guilty of cruelty sod unalcerlike conduct towards Robert Baker and other boys on board H.M.S. Cadmus, in ordering p punishments contrary to the regulations of the Naval Di w ipliie Act, sod they thevefore adjudged him to be dismiaeW her Majesty's service.
