L'euten int on the subject of certain dangers to the throne and constitution, and of Complaining of things in general. Another public meeting of a different character was also held iu Dublin yesterday, the locality selected for it being one with a peculiarly peaceable name, via , Lamb-alley. The object of the meeting was to denounce the income tax, but the speakers preferred denouncing Mr. John Reynolds, the alder man of the ward, who, they affirmed, instead of I;ring at his post. presiding over their deliberations, was at that moment in London asking the govern ment for a commissionership. A letter from Mr. Reynolds was read on the occasion, but it was not considered sufficiently strong and unequivocal. The Master of the ltolls delivered another stria gad judgment yesterday against the Commissioners of Works, in the same case of alleged extravagant outlay for the drainage of certain lands that was be fore the court a short time since. It would appear that the Board of Works took no notice of his Honour's former injunction. The order of yesterday compels the petitioners to prosecute actions without &lay against the commissioners, who have as yet hied no answer in reply to any of the proceedings. UNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL.

The anticipations of a 'numerous and fashionable attendance for she Oaks were fultilted by tee result, fur although the Downs were not encumbered with an enor mous mass of human beings as on Wednesday, the company was far more select ; the large proportion of private car riages with fashionable parties on the hill and the number of ladies on the Grand Stand rendered this a most successful termination of the meeting. The Private Stand and the @seinen exhibited the usual array of leaders of the tart and basin's men. In the number of distinguished and fashionable visitors were his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, his Serene Highness Prince Edward of s3lt his Royal Highness the Duke de Nemours, his Excellency the French Ambassador, the Duke of Richmond, the Duke and Duchess of Montrose, the Marquises of Exeter and Clauricarde and the Marehieuns of *dewberry, Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, Earls of Jere Derby, Wilton, Granville, Annesley, Bewborough, Mar c,ch Strath more, Bruce, and Linefeed.

Mills, Mr. Cecil Moen', itc. The morning, though fine, was exceedingly close and sultry, and certain indications of en approaching thunder storm were observed by persons skilled in meteorological prognostics. No change, however, took place in the weather until a ft er the aks race, when the rain began suddenly to descend, accompanied by thunder and lightning, and so violent was the storm, it caused a general rush of the company to every available place of shelter. The Grand Stand and all the booths on the course were instantaneously filled to suffocation, but numbers, unable to get under cover, were thoroughly drenched in a very few minutes. For nearly an hour the rain fell in cessantly, and the last two races were =a in a perfect " deluge." This unexpected and dingreeeld• Reath to the day's sport caused a hasty retreat from the Downs. Covered car riages and cabs rose suddenly to • premium, whilst open vehicles were at a serious discount. The contrast of the scene, and the actors concerned in it, was singularly striking—that which was but dust in the morning was now thick mud, ankle deep ; and instead of the gty summer costumes nothing was now to be seen but drenched and dripping figures huddled up in coats, cloaks, and rags, or crouching together under umbrellas. So fair an opening has seldom had so foul • close. The race of thirdly, the Oaks, was won with remarkable ease by Catherine Hayes. For the last three quarters of a mile it was very evident that she had her rivals quite safe. After making the turn into the straight she went on with a decided lead. Mistletoe, Mentmore laass and the Queen, the nest three favourites,were even then t olling after her in vain. Soon afterwards they were distinctly beaten off. The report that she had been sold by Mr. Wencher' had not the slightest foundation in truth. Subjoined are accurate details of the day's sport:— MEMBERS' PLATS of 50 son.; 3-yr-olds, 751 41b ; four, Sat 101 b ; five, Ost 2th ; six and aged, 9st 3lb ; mares allowed 51b, and geldings 31b; maiden 4-yr-olds allowed 71b, five and upwards 101 b.

After the usual parade and canter they drew together at the post, and • beautifal start was made at the first signal. Lady Lnuisa,with Koh. Tnoor, Mistletoe, Catherine llayes, and Miss Sarah filly, well laid up, made the nursing to the mile poet, when the lead was taken by Mistletoe, Catherine Hayes lying at her quarters on the left and Koh-i-noor on the right. In going dowa the hill to Tattenlaam Corner, Mistletoe began to decline, and at the turn she dropped back, leaving the lead with Catherine Hayes, and the race from that point was no longer in doubt. At the stand, Dove, who had been lying off, shot up followed by Miss Sarah filly, Nicotine, and The Queen ; Catherine Hayes, however, maintained her lead to the end, winning easily by a length and a half ; the second beating the third by • length—a head between third and fourth.

A HASTY WEDDING.—On Thursday last a rather curious marriage was celebrated on board the steamer which left by the carat fur Glasgow. A young ploughman, resident in the vicinity, had made up his mind to emigrate, sad, as a preliminary to that important step, he further re solved upon the more serious business of contracting a matrimonial alliance. Things bad been put in proper trim for the accomplishment of this double object ; a passage was taken, cod a willioe helpmate selected ; but unfortu nately, a mistake existed as to the time of the vessel's departure, and he was startled from the joyeue anticipa tions of approaching felicity by a summons to be off. What was the ,nor fellow to do? He bad only been twice " called." and there was no time for delay. Rather than forfeit his passage he resolved to trust to the "chapter of accidents." He and his destined bride came to Inver ness sad took out their places for Glasgow. Luckily a clergyman was on board the steamer ; by the intervention of a good natured friend the circemstances of the case were explained to him ; he, with admirable complaisance, agreed to perform the ceremony off hand ; and our hero was made a happy man " in much shorter time than he bad looked for.—newness Advertiser.

M►YOR ►ND CORPORATION OF LIVEN- Mr. Roll sod Mr. Cairns having followed the Solicitor- General on behalf the defendants, Sir Kelly witsileaT4ljg; The Vice Chancellor said he quite agreed with the de fendaots, that when an act of parliament authorised the execution of any works, and it resulted by necessary implica tion that certain powers were necessary for carrying into effect such works, those powers must be implied. So in the present ease it must be implied that there was power to discharge the dirty water somewhere; and when the work was first commenced, it was a proper question for the engi neers to decide upon what was to be done with this water; and if nothing else could be done with it, it must bare gone down the Yarrow. Bathe had in this case the testimony of the engineer, of the corporation concurring with the plaintiffs. For they did make use of the Douglas river and not the Yar row up to the time of opening the new goit, which in fact was not made with reference to this water at all. It would be • strong thing under these circumstances to say that there was an absolute right now all at once to use the course of the Yarrow. All, however, that he was called on to decide in the present are was, whether or not there was • question of right to be decided between the parties. He was of opinion that there was such question, and then the question was what protection thepleintiffs were entitled to pending the trial of that right. Ile had at first thought that it would have been sufficient to restrain the defendants from opening the new goit except in time of flood. But upon further consideration he thought the tie, should go further, foe the &fondant. bad themselves created OrMa neat works across this communication, and could not, there fore, be under any great alarm about sadden floods, and he thought the injunction should be to restrain the de fendants from altering or removing the dam which pre vented this water from flowing into the Yarrow without the leave of the court.

His Honour made a decree to the following effect —The plaintiffs undertaking to pay the rent due within ten days, and to pay any amount of compensation the court should find the defendants, the lessors, were entitled to; let such inquiry be made, and let there be an injunction as prayed. The inquiry as to compensation being without prejudice to any question. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-YESTERDAT. errnsas pi BAyco.—Bawl ram Caw &Kw, AXII &moss allEtWas INAS% WY, NANSISA NAYLOR AND OTHERS IL PALIKEIL-3IIDONINT. This was an action upon a policy of Ineurance effected upon a vessel which sailed from • port in China, bound for a place in Peru, and which bad been taken possession of and carried away by a great number of Chinese coolies, who constituted the chief cargo, whereby not only the vessel itself bat the cargo was lost. It appeared that the coolies had murdered the captain, and after overpowering the crew, ran the ship ashore. The policy contained the usual clause, insuring the safe arrival of the coolie', to whom a bounty bad been paid, and also insuring the owner against pirates. The question which arose upon the trial was, whether this act of the coolies constituted a piracy. The Lord Chief Baron now read the judgment of the court, and said that they were quite of opinion that this was an act of piracy, and therefore the plaintiff. had a right to recover, and that the pleas on the record were bad. It was evident that the very fact of seizing the ship and taking her out of the control of the captain and the crew was, besides being an act of theft, an act of piracy also, and formed one of the perils insured against. It did not matter what the cause of the seizure was, for it was clear there was a complete loss, and that the fact of seizing the ship and running away with her was as mach the cause of the leas as if the ship bad been seized by regular pirates. Judgment must therefore be for the plaintiffs. Judgment accordingly. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—YF.suaDAY. Bayou n,. COXICINIONZI EVANS.

The prisoner, who exhibited extreme depression end despondency, declined offering any defence, and was fully committed for trial. MARLBO&OUGH•STREBT. Elisabeth Morrie, a very well-dressed young woman, was brought Infers Mr. Bingham charged with having stolen six yards of ribbon, the property of Peter Robin son, linen raper, 105, Oxford-street. John Smith, assistant to Mr. Robinson, stated about half-past twelve on the 21st inst. the prisoner came into the shop and made • purchase. She asked to see some rib bons, and several pieces were shown to her. Witness dis tinctly saw her take a piece of three yards and place it under • parcel which she had with ker. Witness commu nicated the circumstance to Mr. Robinson, who stopped the prisoner as she was leaving the shop, and took the piece of ribbon from her. Another piece three yards lung was afterwards found in her possession. Phials Reed, searcher at the Vine-street station-house, said she searched the prisoner, and found a piece of ribbon and 3/. 17s. in her possession. The ribbon was identified as the property of Mr. Robinson. Police-constable Palmer, 11 E, said the prisoner had given a false address. The prisoner made no defense, and was fully committed. Jeremiah MDernsolt, No. 6, Husband-street ; Timothy Leary, Husband-street ; Mary Cronin, Hus'und-street ; Hugh Molloy, Peter-street ; James Churchill, Peter street; Daniel Fitspotrick, Peter street, were summon' d by the police for not having their houses in such a condi tion for the reception of lodgers as the Common Lodging houses Act required. The evidence in all the cases was of the usual character. The rooms were filthy, the sleeping arrangements without decency, and the rooms filled with a promiscuous assem blage of Irish persons. Mr. Bingham, after a caution, adjourned the cases till next Thursday, to give time to the defendants to make the alterations required by law. plasm? Assays. The bankrupts were printers, of Theron-street. They passed through the court some time ago ; but a ques ion was subsequently raised, u to whether the partnership property, under the peculiar circumstances of the formation and dissolution of the partnership, ought to form joint assets or to pus to the separate estate of Brewster. The question was argued at some length, by Mr. Lucas, on behalf of the joint estate, and by Mr. Aspland, as repre senting the separate estate of Brewster. His Honour now gave judgment. He sald,—ln thiecus it appeared that the stock in trade belonged to the bank rupt Brewster ; and he took West into partnership. The partnership was dissolved by mutual consent, on the 30th of June. 18.50. By the terms of dissolution Brewster was to have all the partnership property, and to pay the part nership debts. After the lapse of five months, on the 18th November, 1850, Brewster became bankrupt; and on the 22nd of the same month a joint flat was issued against both bankrupts. The question for my decision is, whether the property that bas belonged to the partnership is to be considered joint property, or passes to the separate estate. I cannot distinguish this case from that of " Exurbs En derby "(2 B. and C., 389). lem aware that in " Esparto Pemberton" (l Deacon, 421), the Court of Review appears to have decided that, in somewhat similar circumstances, debts due to the partnership are held to be given in trust, and do not pass as being in the use, order, and disposition. If such be the law,it appears to me that nothing can pass as being in the use, order, and disposition of a bankrupt; for if a man holds the property of another,it must always be under • trust. The case of "Esparte Enderby " appears to have met the approval of the Lord Chancellor, and is in m opinion rightly decided. I therefore think that that which had been partnership property passes as being in the use, order, and disposition of the bankrupt Brewster. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.—YEarEaDAY. luau Ma. IN THE MATTER OF WILLIAM NEWTON. This insolvent, who had been a candidate for the Tower Hamlets at the late general election, applied to be dis charged. His case was mentioned on Monday, when be ap plied to be admitted to bail. There was no opposition. Mr. Dowse supported the application to be discharged. It appeared that the insolvent had the Phoenix public house in Rateliff-cross, which he disposed of to a Mr. Swift, and he not having the money, had oecamsned him a good deal of trouble, and led to his insolvency. Mr. Dowse said Mr. Swift had to raise the money, and had been joined by the insolvent in some bills. Mr. Commissioner Phillips said there were some debts In the schedule without consideration. How did they arise ? Mr. Dwell explained that they arose from the circum stance he had stated. Mr. Commissioner Phillips said he (lever opposed in such matters where creditors did not appear. Some evidence was given respecting some furniture held by a Mr. Stephens under a bill of sale. Mr. Commissioner Phillips thought there was nothing further to inquire about. He hoped it would be a warning to the insolvent. His Honour pronounced a discharge forthwith. From the LONDON GAZETTIL—Friday, May 27, LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S OFFICE, Mar 2.

While on board the Cyclops, war-steamer, and about to start from the South ampton Docks for the Isle of Wight, the Duchess of Kent arrived in the docks from Osbleu*. The detachment pro moted arms, and the band, which is an exceedingly fine one, struck up the national anthem. The officers of this regiment are distinguished by wearing a piece of black silk hanging over the collar of the coat. This is a remnant of the old pigtail days, when the tail used to rest on the silk. The pigtail has vanished, but the contrivance to which it gave rise to preserve the coat collar has survived to form a singular distinguishing badge. Flag IN BIRMINONAX.—A fire, which at its com mencement threatened the most disastrous consequences, broke out at as early hour on Thursd ly morning upon the paetnisca of Mr. Sheldon, timber merchant, of Ludgate-hill, in tins town. About four o'clock times were übserved to issue from the engine-house, and very speedily the entire property was in a state of coofiagration. In the course of a short time three engines from the fire-offices in the town were en the spot; but fir the first hour there were not more than three firemen to work them, and the duty tell principally upon the police, who conducted themselves in a most efficient manner. The most effective service was, tiwever, performed by the establishment of the Messrs. Elkingtoe, the celebrated eleetro-platen, directly oppo site, who affixed a hose to the waterworks upon their premises, and aided most effectually in the extinction of the fire. 'the premises of a plater and chaser, an WM*. diate neighbour, together with his stock in trade, of con siderable value, were destroyed, but it is believed and hoped that his loss will be coveted by insurance. Mr. Stephens, the active superintendent of the Birmingham polite, was early in attendance to watch and direct the pro ceedings of his force ; and great credit is awarded on all bands to Br. Melton, a borough magistrate, for the very efficient assistance he rendered upon the occasion. At one period it was feared that the damage would be very serious, but it is understood that Mr. Sheld on ' s l ess will not ex ceed 2,0001., and that his premises and stock are insured to more than that amount in the York Company. The exact cause of the fire is not known, but it is presumed that it originithd in the enginseroota. A fire of any consequence in Birmingham is of rare occurrence, notwithstanding the peculiarity of As manufactures, and their liability to expio_ Jinn bed ignition. It is satisfactory to state that no lives wan isst. CENTRAL CITY TbllkiltMs.—Yesterday a meeting by appointment took place at the Privy Council Office, for the purpose of hearing the supporters and opponents et this project. Lord Viscount Palmerston, Secretary of State for the Home Department; Lord Viscount Canning, Post master-Cieneral ; Sir William Molesworth, First Commis. aioner of Woods and Fornts ; and the Right Hon Edward Cardwell, First Commissioner of the Board of Trade, were attended by Alderman Cubitt, Mr. T. it.

GYZ.—The judgment on the demurrer is this matter will be lite\ la the Court of Qwes'a Beach en Tuesday meet. THE POLICE COURTS: WORSHIP-STREET. Charles Iloare, a portly middle aged man of gentleman like appearance, was charged with having embezzled nu merous sums of money to a very large amount, the property of his employers, Messrs. Lane and Co., brewers, in Wen lock-road, Houton. Mr. John Lane, the senior partner in the firm, stated that the prisoner had been for a considerable time put, in their service as town traveller and collecting clerk, for which he received a salary and commission amounting altogether to nearly 400/. It was the duty of the prisoner to vendor an account of the various sums he had collected from thcir eastomers in the course of the day, an! the most im plicit confidence had been reposed in his integrity, until a recent period, when certain commenicatiens were made to them, which led to a rigid investigation of his accounts, and ft was ascertained that he had adopted the systematic habit of appropriating a portion of the money he bad so received, and that the aggregate extent of his defalcations, as far as tlzu were at present discovered, amounted to u p war d s o f i On regain. g the prisoner to accou n t f or hi s de ankUnies, he became greatly agitated, and having tacitly nimitted his guilt, a policeman was at once sent fur, and he Ctrs into custody. hua Payne, a beershop keeper at Beth na l- green, to having paid the prisoner the s e ve ra l sums o f , and 141., on account of his employers at di ff eren t MA ir within the last few months. ma.

SUGAR.—The average price of Sugar, the produce of the British possessions in America, computed from the re turns made in the week ending the 24th May, 1853, is 255. 60.

COTTON.—LivitwitooL, Met 27.—The state and pro ceedings of our market for the last seven days, have been a continuance and carrying forward of what had been grow ing upon us for the previous two or three weeks. A fair demand from the trade, a little buying for export, and some investments on speculation, with increasing confidence on the part of holders, have given additional firmness to the market, and, in some instances, in the middling and better sorts of American and Bursts, a slight turn of advantage to the holden; but not amounting, we think, in any kind, to a distinct and tabled quotation. The low and inferior dirty qualities are still heavy. AU other descriptions than Ame rican are without change, varying, however, in some degree, as to their tendency . For instance, Brasil fully support themselves, while Egyptians, especially the common quality, are freely offered in every quarter. Our scale of quotations will therefore remain much the same, the committee of brokers placing fair Uplands at qd., Mobile, 61d. ; and Orleans, 6td. 8,210 American, 920 Surat, 200 Bengal, and 60 Egyptian, are reported to have been taken on specula. tion ; 2,310 American, 130 Surat, and 310 Madras, for export. Salem for the week, 64,640 bales. WOOL.—Lzana, MAT 27.—N0 sales in any kind of wool have been effected to any large extent this week, but a somewhat improved tone has been given to prices by the full rates which are now being paid at , the pending Lon don sales. CORN.—CalLateronn, May 27.—The supply of Wheat was fair to-day, but the greater proportion white, which fetched fuU prices for all the beet qualities, and all the good red was about is. per qr. dearer, the supply being short ; red 40s. to 445. •, white, 465. to 60s.

LtvzitrooL, MAY 27.—The arrivals from Ireland and Coastwise, since Tuesday, have been quite insignificant, and from foreign ports we have only received 3,200 quarters wheat, 1,700 quarters beans. and 396 quarters Indian corn. The exports in the same time comprise 1,710 quarters wheat, 1,744 quarters Indian corn, 87 bar rels Indian meal, 472 sacks and 770 barrels flour. During the past two days the trade has been quiet, but prices of all articles have been well maintained notwithstanding the continued line weather. At this day's market there was a fair attendance of the town and country trade and a good consumptive demand was experienced for wheat and flour at generally the extreme rates of Tuesday, and in some instances at • alight advance for extra qualities, which are scarce. Oats and oatmeal were steady in price, but the sale was limited. Barley, beans, and peas were without change in value or demand. Indian corn was not much inquired for, and barely supported late rates. 12 - 2 96 891 78 Oi 1 7231 188 277 149 5} 2 41 77 23ii 131 11 7 2 11 zi 63 44- 1 677 240 194 69 24} 68 1,194 4,372 8,210 i 3,H21 4,610! 14,6251 2:0671 3,944 2,657 119, ON! 18,317 1 Ipl 16,375 3101 44,673 i 9:7221 11,55?1 '616 614 22,169 2,4741 _938_1 784 7,015 2,571 4,467 2,475 124 15,868 5,540 22,662 165 II 5,426 i i 23,113 r 338 55,153 1,735 1 13,853 114,731 .414 11,139 1,125 .775 27,166 2,734 987 2,896 3,826 1,004 1,778 2,158 845 2,251 18,452 3,393 1,527 1,993 3,097 1,091 13,243, 1,6471 1,314 1,6121 1,4 - 7 - 1 441: '569 416; 613 1670 259 23,052,27,015 - 6,535 1,014 1,445 2,5,863 16,163 8,109 18,700 3,375 o9t 5,374 1,172 1,114, 3,017 SAILED. flarrox—from Gravesend, May 27, to ...
