IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT• HOUSE OF LORDS.—Tuccoav, JCLY 7. The Loco Caawcar.aa took his mat oo the woolsack at lye o'clock. AFFAIRS OF GREECE - - - The Marquis of NORM.‘NBY wished to renew a ques tion ho card out 'event' weeks ago to his noble (need Rumell) io ciamequeoce of the tutelligeoce which had just been received from tireece, and the accouote of the military insurrection at Athens, and the general anarchy prevailing there. The question he bad put was, whether his noble friend would have any objection to present to parliament a report which bad been turd. by Mr. Scarlett, our minister at Athens, on the 4th of May lest, describing the present state of the country, iu which he stated that "anarchy in its most loileetn toms reigned at Athens." He could not imagine any reason why Ins noble friend should object to produce the r, twist. rltrl K , SELL was understood to say that he would look throu4li the p.ipera, and set, whether there waxen,' ob jection to ilnction of this report. • The Mar l eis of NORMANBYsedd his only wish was that the document should be produced in an authentic shape. g The Sheep and Cattle (Scotland) Bill passed through com mittee. SIATUTE LAW REVISION BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR and that in presenting to their lordships the present bill for a second reading, he felt it incumbent on him to state that it must of necessity be accepted by their lordships on trust, relying on the fidelity. industry, aud skill of the persons who had been employed in framing it. The bill had been the work of some years. Toe mere examination of the questionable points bad occu pied his lordship and his auxiliaries a considerable time. Lord ST. LEONARDS said he thought there would be no objection to their lordships' acceding to the motion for the second reading of this bill. It wails sue in which their lordships must put confidence in the flamers of the measure. It would require months or years to go through that hst of statutes iu order to verify the accuracy of the framers of 16 ball Lord BROUGHIM said the question for the house to consider was simply whether they desired to have a digest of our lawn or not ? If not let them say so at once ; but if they wonted such a divot there was but one mode of getting it--let them entrust the to* of its formation to competent bends, sad then let them take the result on trust. Lord CHIN WORTH expressed his entire approval of the bill which his noble and learned friend hr..' laid on the table. --- Lord CH.ELMSFOKD said be also approsTd of the mea sure. A former bill on Ibis subject wri referred by the Home of Con:mons to • select committee. Of course at this period of the session that would be imrossible with re pid to this bill. He suggested that the portions of the Lill in which reasons were given for the proposed cbaogeu should be printed in red ink with a view to facilitate the l►boun ; of the House of Commons in dealing with the measure. . . The LORD CHANCELLOR said it WWI proposed that the reasons in question should form put of the bill ss it went to the House of Commons, bat that they should after wards be *track out. With regard to what had been said by Lord St, Leonardo, be would appeal to an anthoriq which, if the noble sad learned lord had not left the house, he would abundantly respect, namely. Sir Edward Bogdan, who was a great codifier and digester of parte et the law oa which he bad written. And what was the result! Why that there was hardly a case arising ont of any one of the subjects included in one of his noble and learned fiend's books, but that the judges both in law and equity were in the habit of saying, "Oh, you will find the whole of the law relating to it in Sir Edward Sugden's treatise." If that lad been done by one learned man with certain subjects, it could be done with equal satisfaction with regard to other subjects by a holy of learned men appointed for the purpose. PUBLIC WORKS (KANUFACTURLNG DISTRICTS) BILL Oo the order of the day for going into committee on this KU, The Earl of DERBY said he was not in any way disposed to object to the bill. Oa the contrary, he thought it was founded on reasonable principles, and that it was • bill cal 'elated to give a certain relief to the operatives is the manufacturing districts. Perhaps he might be allowed to call their lordships' attention to the state of the manufac. taring districts at the recent time. From the statement of the secretary of the central reliei committee held at Manchester yesterday, it appeared that from the great in crease of employment which had been afforded in the mills during the past month, no leas than 47 local committees Lad suspended operations for the preprint ; that out of 55,362 operatives resident in the districts in which the com mittees acted, about 25,690 are working full time, and 16.801 are on short time ; that out of the persons usually employed in the mills in the cotton districts, about t 14,642 are in full work, against 192,527 in full work last April ; that there are 125,097 now on short time against 129.741 oa short time in April ; and that there me now 100,729 out of work opium 215,512 out of work in ApriL There had been, therefore, a positive reduction in the number altogether out of employment of 40.000 since April last. That was a considerable reduction, but still there was a very large portion of the population either wholly out of employment or only partially employed. The house and the country were hardly aware of the efforts made during the last year for the relief of the distress, but he would call their lordships' attention to the fact that ex cludiog altogether what had beau done by private charity, -which had never been made known and never would be, but including a sum of 150,0C3/. which had been employed in the purchase sod supply of food and clothing, and adminis tered ie kind, the amount of subscription was no lets than I. 900,000:. during the last year. (Hear, hear.) He wished to call their lordships' attention to the ciale of the distress, in order that they might not run away with the idea that the large sum still in band would be sufficient to relieve that distress. He bad reason to believe that, excluding a sum of about 80,0001. which was in the hands of the Man sion-house committee, there still remained in the hands of the central relief committee, including some soma promised, but not yet subscribed, but which he hoped would be available, something like 600,0001. At the earns time they thought it • great advantage that the amount expended by the relief commit tees had been reduced from something like 90,0001. a month to 53,0001., which latter amount was still expended per month exclusive of the assistance from the poor-law funds. It was obsions that if they continued to afford relief at the rate of 5:',0001. a month, at the expiration of twelve months their funds would be altogether exhausted, and they could hardly extant the country to make such another effort as they made lest year. It most be borne in mud, however, that the resources of the operatives themselves were re duced to the lowest point, and although 53,000/. a month availed for relief now, yet that could not continue to be suf ficient, bemuse a great many persona were now employed on out-door khour of a temporary nature, and there were some neat, now at work which were not likely to continue during the whole of the autumn, and stillness during the winter. Therefore, in the coming winter, even with the exercise of the greatest possible economy, and the hus banding of their resources, the 600,000/. would hardly be adequate to meet the demands which would arise, and he feared that 53,0001. a month would by no memos represeet the amount which the committee would be called upon to tartish. Under these circumstances this bill, which enabled the districts to engage in public work; and which would avoid the serious difficulty they now had in finding °coupe- Coo for those who required relief, was a wise measure. Notwithstanding the serious injury does to the moral feelings of the population, any bill on this principle fur nishiog a considerable amount of work in those districts was one which in the present circumstances, though the principle was exceptioesl, was highly to be commeoded, and was likely to be most beneficial in its operatious. (Hear.) Rai GRANVILLE paid &handsome compliment to the Marl of Derby for the great services he bad rendered in re lieving the distress in Lancashire. He admitted that, owing partly to exceptional circumstances, there had recently been an improvement in the state of the cotton districts, bat be believed that all the exertions of the local authorities would be required during the soloing winter to meet the waste of the uuemploved operatives. The house then went into committee on the bill, and the clauses, with • few verbal amendments, were altered to. PORT ERIN HARBOUR (ISLE OF MAN) BILL. This bill was read • second time.

THE PATRIOTIC FUND. Mr. J. A. SMITH, who had given notice of • motion for a select committee to inquire ioto the past management and present condition of the Patriotic Fund, said that as there was no likelihood, owing to the state of public btlaioolll4 of his being able to bring his motion forward ate reasonably early hour. he would postpone it until a f u t ure day. A meeting of the royal commissioners was about to he held at which be understood the matters which be intended to bring wader the coosideration of the house would be investigated, and he hoped the motion would come on for discussion sub momently to that meeting. ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH THROUGH PERSIA. ..... . _ _ Colonel SYKES asked the Cade( Seeretary of State foe Foreign Atf.Ore whether there was a new convention for the caostruetioa of the electric telsraph through Pero* &awe out by Mr. Eaaturicit, abargi d'affaires at Teheran, on the 17th of December, 1862, and whether there would be any objection to lay a copy of the same upon the table of the house. Mr. LAYARD—There is a new convention, but it is not Ka aigned. When it is signed there will be no objection to lay tt on the table of the house. EPPLNG FOREST. Mr. TORRENS asked the Secretary to the Treasury, whe ther the consent of her Majesty, signified in writing un4er the royal sign manual, in conformance with section sof cap. 56 of the act 16th and 17th Vie., had been obtained for the sale of the forestal rights of the crown over the southern and the northern portions of the forest of Epping. which were authorised to be sold by thetwoTreasury warrants particularised in page 122 of Appendix to the Report from the Select Committee oc Royal Forests, dated 9th June, 1863 ; and, if such written consent had been obtained, whether there would be any objection to laying a copy of it upon the table of the house Mr. F. PEEL said that the consent of ber Majesty in writing was only neccsaary when the thing sold or parted with was the subject of dispute. When there was no dispute, the consent of the Treasury was sufficient, and in the present instance the latter was the cose. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 8, 1863. TRIPLE MURDER AND SUICIDE. The pprpses of three children and their mother, who have joie met their deaths under most melancholy dr. cumatanosa, now lie at the George Inn, Bathampton, a village about three miles from Bath. The deceased woman, who was about 36 years of age, was the wife of a man named Coles, who was about twenty years her senior, and they lived with their five children in apartments at No. 2, Galloway-buildings, in Bath. Formerly they were in good circumstanne, and about four years ago they resided at Larkhall, a suburb of Bath, but thence, about four years ago, they went to Bristol and took the Ring of Bells public house, 1 homasatreet, which turned out an unfortunate 1 speculation, and three or four months since they returned to Bath, and have since subsided upon the sale and pawning of their wearing apparel and other property. This reverie of circumstances appears to have affected the mind of the wife, who was a good-looking and sensitive woman, and she on several occasions has said to her neighbours that she could not endure their state of penury, and should drown herself and children. On Sunday morning a district visitor who called at the home maw her forlorn condition, and ad vised her to go with her family to the workhouse, as her husband is incapacitated from infirmity from following his trade as a carver and gilder. Mrs. Coles, however, who we. remarkable for her fondness for her children, replied that she would rather jump into the river with her baby than go there. Later in the day she said to • person in the house that she thought her husband could support himself and the two eldeet children, but that she would take charge of the other three. Even then the unhappy woman seems to have formed her sad design, for en Monday, about half-past 12, she left her home, Wring with her the three younger children, two boys and a girl. John, the eldest of the three, was six years of age, the next, datilda, was about three, and the other au infant in arms. All were very fine children. They called at the Folly public-house, on the tanks of the Kennet and Avon Canal, and having rested a short time, during which the mother partook of halfa-pint of beer, they proceeded along the towing path towards Bathamptoo. On reaching a occluded spot, where the canal is spanned by a stone bridge, it is supposed she first threw the children into the water and then jumped in herself. Indeed a milkman in the meadows adjoining heard a cry of " Don't, mother," and then " Murder," and a lady in • villa at some distance beard the same sounds, acid Saw • child running from a woman on the towing path, but they tecame hid behind a clump of trees, and she thought it was merely a mother chastising her child. It is now supposed that she had thrown the two youngest children into the water, and was pursuing the eldest for the ammo purpose, as, on the milkman reaching the canal • few minutes after, he maw the woman in the water, and an alarm being raised and drag poles procured, she was drawn out quite dead. The canal warn dinged for some distance farther, and ultimately the bodies of the three children were recovered, but life was quite extinct. The bodies are awaiting an inquest. AUGMENTATION OF BENEFICES BILL. In reply to Mr. EADIIILD, Sir G. GREY stated that the second reading of this bill would be mond on Thursday. MR. ROEBUCK. AND THE EMPEROR OF THE FRENCH. Mr. S. BEAUMONT said that he had placed a motion on the paper to ask the hon. member for Sheffield whether the conference in the palace of Fontainebleau, which took place on Tuesday, the 30th of June, was recorded by any memorandum made on the same or the following day ; ard, if so, to ask the hon. member and the hon, member for Sunderland whether (having regard to the amnion in re ference to that conference which the French government has thought St to insert in the Afortiteur) they would have any objection to lay it upon the table of the house. He bad just received a private communication from the hon. mem ber for Sheffield, in which he stated that he should not be in the house in time to answer the question, but that all the evidence in his hand would be adduced on the occasion as future discussion. OFFICE OF PUBLIC WORKS. Mr. B. COCHRANE rose to move the following regain tion :—" That the large sums annually voted for public buildings and improvements in the metropolis are not en peoiled in a satisfaztory manner; and that., with a view to the efficiency of the Office of Works, it should be constituted on a different basis." Were they to go on for ever in the lame way discussing works and undertakings which were a disgrace to the country, and for which there appeared to be no r . • medy Did the house know of the enormous sum of money which pawed through the Office of Works Every year it was nearly a million. On arts and science, since 1847 or 1848, there had been three millions expended, and the only return they had got were the Brampton toile's, the Na:ional Gallery, and an addition to the British Museum. It was not for him to am what should be done. The boo. member for Finsbury had proposed that there should be a body of men, instead of having only one commissioner, in whom the bowie and the country would have confidence, and if that body had misted they would rot have witnessed arch ascents u that which occurred the o:her night. The Office of Works bad not authority enough, and I•ei thought be had proved that a change in its constitution ought to take place. Of one thing he felt certein,that the buildings at South Ken nington would under a proper supirvision have been well constructed at first, and would rot hove required the sum of 384,000. to be laid out upon them to male them perma. rent. The hon. gentleman concluded by moving the reso lution. Mr. FERRAND seconded the motion. Mr. COWPER said his horn friend was well known as • man of cultivated taste, and that it was no doubt distressing to him to see so many buildings in this metropolis which were offensive to it. But he wished his boo. friend bad gone in.o the matter • little more closely. He supposed his bon. friend desired to point out the shortcomings of the Office of Work., but that office was in no way re sponsible for those works which his hon. friend had oorn• plainest of. There was no office which wee conducted upon a better method, and the system of keeping the accounts was considered shakable. The secretary and assistanteecretary were permanent. There were • surveyor sod 15 assistant surveyors, and many other officers, and when necessary the office consulted Professor Faraday, Sir R. Morchnoo, and Professor Airy. Mr. Scott was the architect of the New Foreign-offin, and Megan. Banks sod Barry at present superintended any alanrations or additions at the Houses of Parliament. Mr. Fowler was the eogineer of the office, and Mr. Leslie was the ornamental gardener. Other professional gentlemen were employed by the Office of Works whenever it eras thought desirable, and the hoar would see that the O ffi ce of Works was not confined to the opinions of one or two gentlemen, but that it resorted to the highest talent which the country could produce. Requite admitted that if there should be • large sztanion of haziness, the Office of Works would not be able without an addition of per manent officers to discharge it satisfactorily. (Hear, hem.) He mold not agree that the head of the aloe should be made pernent, but if any alteration were made in the constitution of the office it should be by bringing in more professional men, for if the Treasury should be required to decide upon all new works, as they would not have time to go into all the details, there would be a number of capricious decisions—more than at present, when the responsibility was placed in a parliamentary head who did not change the orders which had been made by his predecessor in office. Besides, that could not be done, for all the large works were let under • contract in gross. Why was it that so many public offices had remained so long in abeyance ? It was that there had been so many committees, the members of which had conflicting views, and every one was obstinate in upholding his owe opinion. The arrangements of the Foreign-office had been hung up ever since 1839, and that delay was attributable to the fact the; three committees had successively sat on the question. Four had sat on the National Gallery and two COOIII36MODI and as to the British Museum he could not tell how many commissions and committees had been appointed. Even if lit were possible he thought there would be great hazard in turning the Office of Works into a board not having any person in that house to represent it. He thought tbs better way would he to give more power to the Office of Works than it bad at preeent, no matter who might hold the office of Chief Commissioner. The house divided : For the motion 24 Against it CRITRCH RATE RECOVERY BILL. Lord A. CHURCHILL moved for leave to bring in a bill to amend the laws relating to the recovery of church rates. The noble lord stated that the principle which be wished to establish waa, that there should be no penalty attached to the nonpayment of church rates. He would leave the machinery for levy as it at present existed, but would for. bid the levy on any person who objected on principle to the payment of the rate for any reason. As the question had been so often discussed in that horse, he hoped that every moderate member would accept what he thought was a reasonable arrangement. Mr. NEWDEGA'IT did not think that the bill offered any chants* of a settlement of the church rate question, and should oppose any bill the object of which was to deprive the parish of the right to levy for nonpayment. Sir G. GREY said that his noble friend did not ask the house to assent to the prioeiple of his bill, but merely for leave to lay it on the table for consideration during the MOM Leave given. TIIE NAWAB OF THE CARNATIC. Sir F. KELLY rose to more fee a select committee to inquire into the claims of his Higbee... Amerce Jab to the title and dignity of Nawab of the Carnatic, and otherwise in respect of the treaty entered into between his highnese's father, dream ul Dowlah, and the East India Company, on the day of , 1801, and the circumataeme attending the same. Mr. SDIOLLETT seconded the motion, and wee proceed ing to addrees the house, when an bon. member noticed that there were not 40 members present. Upon the Speaker proceeding to count. 34 members only were found to:4 be preeent, and the house was counted oat at 2G minutes to nine. Kr s . Davey has paired with Mr. Way for the remainder of the wim. AN INCIDENT IN THE House OF COMMONS.— , Yesterday at the morning sitting a somewhat curious inci dent occurred in the House of Commons, involving a viola tion of one of the standing orders of the house. It is known to those who are in the habit of attending the House of Commons that immediately after prayers the Speaker takes his seat at the clerk's table, and sits there until forty mem bers are present, that number being aexissary to make " a house." During that period of waiting no member who has entered the house must leave it until the forty are present, sad if a member through ignorance or forgetfulness of the standing order ventures towards the door he is politely requested by the sergeant-at-arms to retire to his seat. Yesterday, at 10 minutes past 12, there were not more than 20 members present, when Sir William Dunbar, one of the Lords of the Treasury, hastily left the ministerial beech and went oat of the homes unperceived by Csptsis Gossett, the deputy -sergeant, who was to attendance. Mr. C. Forster and Colonel Preach oommunicsted what had occurred to Captain Coirett, who bad been conversing with the Marquis off Hartington, and off went the captain in search of the fugitive Lord of the Treasury. In the comes of a few minutes Sir William Dunbar, much to the amusement of the members present, made his way back into the house by a side door, Captain Gossett having missed him in the lobby. Soon afterwards a house was formed, and the Speaker, who apparently enjoyed the affair as well as the other members, was sot officially informed of the mistake which the incau tious Lord of the Treasury bad made.

An interesting meeting was held yesterday, at the Maniacs-house, of the members and friends of the Royal tociety for the Protection of Life from Fire, the obkot being to distribute prizes to those members of the Fire Escape Brigade and others who have most distinguished themselves by rescuing life from fire. The meeting took plain in the Egyptian Hall, and wee presided over by the LORD MAYOR. The brigade were pre sent in large force, beaded by their bend, which played various pieces daring the props: dings. The SECRETARY read a report, of which the fallowing is an abstract : _ _ "- The report for the twelve months ending March, 1863, records the extension of the society's arrangements by six fresh rations during the year, making the entire number eighty-one, extending from Kensington to Limehouse, and from Peckham to Holloway. At every station one of the ecciety's brigade is in attendance with the fire escape from eight o'clock until seven in the winter, from nine until six in the summer. The whole force now numbers 90, officered by four inspectors. They attended 613 fires during the year, and rescued 67 lives from burning premises, including only in that number those whose escape was otherwise cut off. The reward list includ-d several cases of merit beyond the society's own ground of operations—one over in Ireland. The following is a summary of the awards for presentation : —Seven silver medals, two clasps to previous medals, and 29 testimonials on vellum, aooompanied by money. The ha lanceaheet of the year shows an amount received of 8,2781. 61., including annual subscriptions from her Majesty the Queen, from 136 parishes, and from upwards of 16,000 individual subscribers. The payments include 7,4721. for conductors' wages, clothing, coat of fire escapes, and calla and assistance to fires, and 6391. for office expenses, including rent, salaries, printing, and other management disbur.e. =rte." The amount invested in Three per Cent. Consols is 3,4864 17e. The men entitled to the rewards were then called up and received them at the hands of the Lord Mayor, who in each case accompanied the gift with some appro priate remarks. Amongst the recipients were several metre• politan police constables, one City police constable, and two members of the Roscommon constabulary. One of the brigade—Wood—who was described as the owner of the celebrated fireman's dog (now dead), and who it was stated on one occasion rescued three children at once by bringioit them down one in each arm and the other in his mouth, appeared with the society's gold and silver medals and no end of silver clasps on his breast. This recipient was warmly complimented by the Lord Mayor, and loudly cheered by the ladies and gentlemen present. George Searle, workma in the service of Mr. Reece, of St. Martin's-lane, received the society's testimonial en vellum, and a sovereign, for ex tioguishing the flames round the person of a young woman whose clothing had caught fire. Resolutions adopting the report, mad in praise of the ob• jects and exertions of the society, were moved and spoken to by Deputy Lott, Rev. A. Curtain s the Rev. T. Nolan, and others, and a vote of thanks to his lordship for the use of the hall and for presiding emieluded the busuiesa TRAFFIC RETURNS. RAILWAYS. 1111 n Pah- Men.

In the week that ended last Saturday the deaths were 1,187. The aver age weekly number at the beginning of July, corrected for increase of population, is 1.142, and therefore in the present return there is an excess of 45 above the estimated amount. There were 43 deaths from small pox in the week. In June the weekly number varied from 43 to 48. Of the 43 CUSS 4 are stated to have occurred to the vaccinated. Scarlatina was fatal in 73 eases, sof which occurred in Limebouse. There were 4 death. from intemperance. Six cases of in fanticide were recorded in the week, 3 of which were in the subdistrict al St Mary Paddington. A girl, aged one year, died of intiususception caused by swallowing a cherrystone; and a boy, aged 8 years, of spaces from a cherrystone pacted in the larynx. Last week the births of 995 boys and 942 girls, in all 1,937 children, were registered in London. In the ten correspoading weeks of thelyeara 1853-62 the average number (corrected) was 1,728. CITY COURT OF 8/WEB/I.—At the weekly meeting of the Commissioners of Sewers of the City of London held yesterday at Guildhall, under the presidency of Mr. Deputy De Jersey. Dr. Letheby, the medical offiour, reported on the state of 197 houses that had been inspected during the week, and he submitted a list of 97 places for sanitary im provement in various particulars. The markets and slaughter-bosses have been duly inspected, and the officers have condemned 1,820 lbe. of meat as unlit for human food. It consisted of 3 sheep, 2 pigs, 14 quarters of beef, and 10 joints of meat. The mortality returns for the seek are below the average for the season, and, excepting scarlet fever, there is no disease of unusual prevaimos in the City. Dr. Letbeby also preempted the weekly returns of the quality of the gas supplied to the City, from which it ap pears that the average illuminating power of the City COM piny's gas had been equal to that of 13.78 spermfoandles of standard quality ; the Chartered to 13.03 candles, and the Commercial to 1329, all of which averages are above the act of parliament standard. Theproportmos of sulphur in the gas ranged from 19.04 grains per 100 cubic feet to 27.7., the former being the proportion of the Great Centre! Cu, sod the latter is the City. The daily pressures ranged from 10 to 22 tenths, the average of each company being about 12 tenths. ROYAL ASYLUM OP ST.

(Bofors Vios-Cbasedlor Mt J. Bloch.) . _ CHAIFON r. COME®. _ _ Mr. Malin; Q.C., and Mr. Speed appeared for the plain tiff in this suit, the facts of which were shortly these. A Mr. Thomas Alchiu died in March, 1854, having by a codicil to his will bequeathed to his niece, him Andrews. a widow, with six children, certain property worth about 3001. a year. for her life, but coupled with • direction that if she should marry again without having previously obtained the consent of the trustees of his will her interest was to be reduced to an annuity of 504 only for her life, and the residue of the 3001. was to go to her children. On the 25th of September, 1854, Mrs. Andrews married the defendant Coombe,. without the knowledge of the trustees, and died in the early part of the year 1862. The trus• tees of the will bad, in ignorance of the fact that Mrs. Andrews had married the defendant, paid her till her death the full amount of the income bequeathed to her ; but having recently discovered the circumstance of her second marriage, instituted this suit against Mr. Cooinbes to recover from him the property wrongfully re aired by him. He, however, alleged that be had indeed concealed the marriage from the trustees and the family of hia late wife, but he had so acted in order to avoid dif fereoces among them ; and that be was not himself aware of the clause of forfeiture in the codicil till the bill in this suit was filed against him. Mr. Greene, Q.C., and Mr. Talfourd Salter (of the com mon law bar) appeared for Mrs. Coomtes' children ; Mr. Bacon, Q.C., and Mr. Hallett for Mr. Coombe' ; and Mr. Langley for other parties. The Vice-Chancellor, after commenting upon the evidence in the cane, stated his conclusion to be, that Mr. Cambay must, notwithstanding his statements to the contrary, be taken to have been aware of the classe of forfeiture in the codicil when he married Mrs. Andrews. There must, there fore, be a decree in the plaintiff's favour ; but upon the question of costa, the Vice.Clancellor said ha would bear Mr. Malin/ to-morrow (Wednesday) morning. COURT OF COMMON PLRAI3.-Jury 7. Sittings at Niai Prins in London.—(Before Lord Chid Justice Erie and a Special Jui7.) MUFFLE! F. ADAMS—AC77ON OF LiBEL •oenserr • After our report left yc3terday, Three other witnesses were examined, the e ff ect of their testimony being that the plaintiff had been seen the worse for drink on several occasions whilst he was staying at dtockcross. The lo7d Chief Justice directed the jury to say whether the statements in the alleged libels were io their opinion true ; and told them that in the event of their thinking the statements true it would be their duty to find for the de fendant. Should they, however, think that the statements were not true, they would then Bey, in reference to the point as to privileged communications, whether the defendant had written the letters simply because he honestly believed what he wrote to be true, or whether he had acted from corrupt motives ; in which latter case the privilege would be forfeited. Should they find for the plaintiff, he also wished them to assess the damages separately in re spect to each libel, because the full court might possibly think one of them privileged and the other not. The jary retired to consider their verdict, and after an absence of nearly an hour and a half the Lord Chief Justine entered the court and stated that they had asked him what was the effect and meaning of " corrupt motive." He said that if the defendant wrote the letters believing them to be true and that he was doing his duty in writing them, he had no corrupt motive. If, however, he wrote them from a motive of ill will to the plaintiff, that would be a corrupt motive. The jury also wished to know whether the parties would be willing to take the verdict of a majority. The learned counsel upon both sides expressed their willingness to accept the verdictof a majority of the jury. Shortly afterwards the jury re-entered the court and the foreman stated that they found a verdict for the plaintiff on the first point, for the defendant on the second, and for the plaintiff on the third. On the first and third points they assessed the damages in each case at 40e. The Lord Chief Justice certified that the case was a pro per one to be tried by a special jury. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—JtTLY 7. (Before Mr. Baron Martin.) BTAPLETON T. HAMER ARD ANOTHER. Tbu sru an action of t;;errorii; wron g ful - conversion of a barge, with its sails, manta, and fittings. For the plaintiff, Mr. Abel, Mr. Joyce, and Mr. Gibbons appeared • and for the defendants (who were assignees of a bankrupt), Mr. Collier, Q.C., and Mr. F. W. Smith. The adendante pleaded in this cale—first, not guilty, and secondly, that the plaintiff was not possessed of the barge, &c., in dispute. Iran the evidence of the plaintiff, a mere lad in appearance, the facts were that be had purchased the barge with money bequeathed to him by an node, sod bad endeavoured to procure his livelihood by trading between Rochester and London. Being under the age of 21, the Custom-house authorities had refused to register him as the owner of the barge. The question thus anise, whether he or the assignee of the bankrupt, who had transferred it for the mum of 1001. to the plaintiff, were the real owners of the barge. Mr. Baron Martin directed the jury to Mid for the plaintiff, reserving leave to the defendants to move the court above on the point of law, and the jury found so corduigly. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. A respectably &eared. grestieLUlil;Oldng young man was brought up on a warrant in custody of detective officer Spital, charged with embezzling moneys belonging to his employers. Mr. Freshfield prosecuted. The prisoner was employed as clerk ►nd collector by the Carron Company. Upper Thames-street, and in that capa city he was authorised to collect the quarterly accounts.

BOW-STREET. - - - °forge Clark, alias Miller, was charged on remand with picking a lady's pocket. Mrs. Gillespie stated that on Friday last she was at the British Museum with two little girls, and noticed the pri soner, who, notwithstanding the oppressive heat of the weather, was wearing a large and heavy cape, or overcoat, known as an "Inverness." He appeared to be following her and the young ladies, and she tried to avoid him. At one time she felt biro pressing very close against her as she was looking at some articles in one of the cases. There was not the slightest necessity for his pushing against her. She again moved away from him. After she bad lost sight of lum she missed her muse. which contained Is. &I. in silver. The puree now produced by Mr. Morgan was the same. Mr. Scott, Inspector of the A division, said, on being taken into custody Is. fed. was found in his pocket. He first said his name was Miller, and he lived at the police station on Wanilaworth-green. Afterwards he said his real name was Clark ; that he was a tailor and lived at Stepney. On inquiring at that address, witness was informed that the prisoner had lodged there occasionally for years, but never remained more than a few days at a time. He had slept there the sight before his apprehension. He and his with were well known in the neighbourhood, but no one knew what his business was, or had ever been aware that he did anything for a living. He and his wife were said to be ex tremely well conducted, dressed very nicely, and always had plenty of money. Mr. Morgan, au attendant at the British Museum, pro duced a purse which be picked up after the removal of the prisoner in one of the rooms which the latter had passed through. It was identified by Mrs. Gillespie. Sergeant Sheen, of the B division, proved three previous commitments of the prisoner for one month, three months, and six months raspeotavely, for attempting to pick pockets. The prisoner pleaded guilty, end was ordered to be im prisoood for six months with hard labour. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Charles Williams alias Peters, a young man, was charged before Mr. Tyrwbitt with stealing a lady's parse and con tent. in Regent-street. John Henry Lennox, of 92, John's-terrace, Brecknock. street, Camden-town, a lithographic music printer, deposed that between 5 and 6 the previous afternoon he saw the prisoner go deliberately up to a lady in Regent-street and snatch her puree from her hand and then make off. He pn.sued the prisoner, who flung the purse from him, and having picked it up he continued his pursuit and at length succeeded in securing the prisoner, who ran up • place where there was no thoroughfare, and took him to the station and handed him over to • constable. Mrs. Amelia Sarah Webb, wife of Mr. Charles Webb, of 23, liolford-square, Pentonville, said that while walking with a young lady in Regent-street the previous afternoon • per•on, she believed the prisoner, stole the purse from her hand, and then ran away. On afterwards seeing the prisoner, and before she spoke to him, he exclaimed, "Don't i give me n charge." At that time he was in the custody of the young man (Lennox) and • gentleman. In sewer to Mr. Tyrwbitt the prosecutrix said the puree contained at the time V. Is. 3d. and a pencil case, but some of the silver was lost through the prisoner throwing it from him. Inspector Bowles asked for a remand. which was granted. The prisoner, however, said be was guilty. [Advertisement.}—Hou,owAy's Oirrmvir AND PIUS.

The baying has been chiefly for Germany and the Mediterranean, with a fair business also for the home trade. The India people have made a good many offers in yarns suited to the mar. keta of that country, Wale of which have been accepted, in some caeca at Friday's rates. In general spinners are asking higher prices, which has rather restricted operations. The tone of the yarn market is altogether better, and it Blow rather strong. The cloth market is also firmer. The We India accounts reported a slight improvement in prices there, but they were accompanied with advice of such immense arrivals and large expected arrival of Manchester goods, that the news of higher prices has tailed to cause any favourable reaction on thin skill, and, the market more Friday has been rather quiet. To-day we have had a market almost as flat as any we have reported during the last few weeks. Buyers, when offers are made by them (and they make very few) name prices which are altogether too low to meet with acceptance from manufacturers, who as a rule keep fully up to late quotations. In the market circulars sellers quote rather lower prices, but in order to command a business they would have to make a considerable reduction. There is, however, no syrapton of manufacturers meeting buyers on any such favourable terms, and hence the flat account we have to report of today's market. WOOLLEN.—Luvs, Jotr 7.—The markets this mom. lag were well attended. but only a limited amount of busi ness wee transacted, the chief demand being for milled diagonals and other fabrics suitable for the fall trade. Very little was doss is plain goods. A few job lots of light mottoes and tweeds changed hands at low ottotatioss„ The white market was very quiet. Bates remain without material change. MANUFACTURES.—HUDDIRSII3I.I), JOLT 7.—Fewer buyers have been in the market to-day, but a tolerable business boa been transacted in autumn goods, low tinkles, and mixtures. A fair amount is also making to order, the goods of which are delivered direct to the merchant., and the effect of this is that stocks in the cloth hall are below the average. WOOLS.—HUDDELSVILLD, JULY 7.—Although the quan tity to be brought forward for sales commencing next week in London is heavy—over 100,C30 hales having already arrived—the continued fine weather gives confidence to the trade, and prices are very well maintained.

NIWCWITLII, JULY 7.—At oar market this morning we bad a moderate show of wheat from the growers, and although the arrivala coastwise were equally so, the extreme fineness of the weather induced our buyers to operate very cautiously ; still in the business done the rates of Saturday were sustained, holders refusing to make an mimetic, with a view of promoting business. Flour without change. Barley wonted. In other articles we have little variative to note.

CATTLE.-Bausitunr, JULY 7. —At our market to-day there was a better attesdanoe of buyen, and the supply of beasts was short, and consequently in this respect business ruled dull, and inferior animals were a little cheaper, but best beef obtained late quotations.
