Mr. Blundell seeing a pylon committed for trial charged with threatening the life of an attorney, wrote to the committing magistrates, giving a full account of the transaction. The man was kept in prison for five or six months—his family were sent to the workhouse , and, in short, he was utterly ruined. When the cane came before the grand jury, on which there h appene d t o be several of the committing magistrates, the hill w/o ignored ; but the poor man, unable, as he said with hi. dying breath, to bear up against the obloquy to which he had been 'objected, put an end to his life. The attorney proceeded against Mr. Blundell for writing the letter, but instead of suing him for damages, in which ease he would have Iran heard as well as the attorney, he indicted him for libel, and Mr. Blau dell's mouth we, thereby closed. The judge who tried him (Mr. Justice Hill) was so convinced that he had been ill-used that he absolutely refused to per sentence upon him. The case was therefore remitted to the Court of Queen'. Beech ; but not only was Mr. Blundell unable to tell his tale, but Mr. Justice Hill's notes of the trial were in such a state in consequence of his indisposition, that they could not be used by the court. Mr. Blundell was therefore committed for eight months. Mr. Blundell com plained, and he (Lord Brougham) thought most justly com plained, of the state of the law. He did not go quite so far as his friend Sir Samuel Romilly, and say that defen dants in criminal cases should always be examined ; but he thought that when they volunteered it, and offered them pelvis for crais-examination, their evidence should be re ceived.

THE SUBSCRIPTION ON TARING ACADEMICAL DEORFXI3. _ . _ Earl RUSSELL then rose, Punuant to notice, to present a petition from certain heads of colleges, profession, fellows, and tutors of the University of Oxford, for removing the present subscription required for academical degrees. The petition he said wee of comeiderable importance, and was remarkable for the number and character of the signatures attached to it. The first name was that of the Dean of Christ Church, and the total number of signatures was 106, who were all either beads of colleges, or professors, or fellows, or tutors The list included 17 professors and 71 present fellows of college ; and making a comparison between those who idgned and those who had not signed, he was informed that of the 71 fellows who had signed, 56, or four-fifths, had obtained first-alas honours, while of the re. re:drain 366 fellows who had not signed the petition, there were only 75, or one-fifth, who had obtained &stare honours. The petitioners began by disclaiming any inten tion of inviting interference with the theological teaching at the university ; they agreed that religious trebles ought to be maintained in the university, and that the doctrines Naught should be those of the church of England. They went on to say that they believed that the present system of exacting declarations or subscriptions had failed to produce unanimity or even to promote religious pease. It seemed to Lim that the petition was so reasonable and moderate, and so far from in terfering with the rube( of the church of England, that he hoped the time would soon come when it would be the foundation of a change. They knew that for nearly three centuries after the Earl of Leicester made his in tolerant and exclusive Law no alteration was made, and be believed no alteration would have been made until this day, tudeseparlianient had interfered, and be hoped that before long, but of emote not in the purse session, session, th e prayers of these distinguished men would be complied with. He could not but see that there was progress in religious liberty through out Europe. In the Two Sicilia*, where by the law of 1824 only the Roman catholic religion was recognised, and no marriage of a perm could be registered except io that reli gion, they found that now that provision was held to be quite inconsistent with the constitution of the new kingdom of Italy, which recognised the principle of religious liberty. While, therefore, they saw religious persecutioo in other mitines dying out, he hoped that in a spirit of conservative reform they would not be averse to the prayer of the peti tion which be now presented.. Wear, hear.) The Earl of DERBY said that if they looked through the' signatures they would find a considerable number were neither fellows nor tutors, and when they bore in mind that out of the whole number of members of the university, re- Dirket, non-resident, past and present, the petition only bore the signatures of 106 individuals, he must say, with every respect for the eminent position of those who signed it, that it could not be taken as an expression of the rose of &con siderable portion of the university. The noble earl said be did not apply the to • case of clerical subscription but this was a Sat step towards the abolition of such sub scription. (Hear.) The question really raised by the noble earl was, whether it was desirable that the two universities and their management, authority, and teaching should be in close and intimate connexion with the church of England. That Was the real point raised, not by the petition, but by the noble earl ; and it was one which should make that house and parliament watch jealously how such a declaration on the part of a minister of the crown might lead to imprudent and hasty step, and might afterwards be used by that minister and his colleagues as • precedent and argument for adopting ulterior measures which might now be contem plated. (Heat, hear.) Earl GRANVILLE said he bad never heard the noble earl speak with so much embarrassment as be had shown in • attemptieg to del with this petition. This was a very im portant question, and bore extremely on the welfare of the University of Oxford, but the noble earl bad declined to say a tingle word against the real object which the noble earl (Earl Roesell) bad in view is presenting the petition. The noble earl had passed certain criticisms on the number and condition of the persons who signed the petition, but if be (Earl Granville) were correctly informed, those names did, without regard to exact numerical proportion, represent an enormous preponderance of the most useful portion of the university. . . _ The Earl said the question was not the great one of religious liberty, but really a Darrow question —viz, whether a person should be obliged to make this sub scription before he was at liberty to pat Y.A. to his risme. The Bishop of LONDON was one of those who had come to the conclusion that in all these solemn and sacred matters the plainer they said what they meant the better. When he was an undergraduate at Oxford there were a great many declarations which were very harassing to young men, especially atter they bad passed the earliest part of their youth and were entering upon the degree of m a st er o f arts. In those days be bad to make a solemn vow that he would keep all the statutes of the university, and also a solemn promise that he would observe all the statutes of his own college, most of which were centered round the celebration of the mass, which had been abolished by net of parliament. There had grown up a science of interpreting those things which war calculated to do mischief. and be was thankful that those declarations were now abolished, as they were a disgrace to the university that kept them up, and be only regretted that any shred or tatter of the same system should still remain. (Hear, bear.) He trusted the University of Oxford would still continue to be the handmaid of the church of England as she bad been in pest times, and he should deeply regret anything that would tend to sever that sacred mainline but be hoped they lived in times when both the &Inch ind the univer sity could face such difficulties as these. (Hear, bear.) When members of the university became mantels of arts by all means let them take their degrees in the fewest and the simplest form of words. If eminent men of science Doe connected eitb the church of England would enlist them- Delves as pretences, or at all events as teachers, without any danger of compromising the church, tbeo be trusted that the university would carefully consider how that could beet be dens. By this means many prejudices would be softened, and the university would really become the centre of reli gious light ; and therefore be trusted that the university would take into its mature coesideration this vary serious sod important subject. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that his attention was Mat called to this matter Dearly fifty years ago, when, epos his matriculating at the university at the early age of 14, he was told by the vice-chancellor that be Tram too young to take the common oath of obedience to the statutes, but Ise was old enough to subscribe the articles of religion. (Laughter.) It was to meet such an anomaly as this that the petitioners bad directed the attention of their lordships' house to the subject. The Bishop of OXFORD said that unquestionably the affect of the existing rules was to keep the governing body of the minima in the heeds of professed members of the antra of England. His right rev. brother signed that Bach a rule, haviagusab an effect, should be removed. The Bishop of LONDON begged to explain that what he had said was that the governing body should be of the church of England, but that the university might field means of admitting teachers who ware not of the church of England, and if they did so ha would be very glad. The Bishop of oXFORD rid au was e:reily what be had stated. His right reversed brother would a those who by their teaching might introduce the elements of din. session. What he himself complained of was that that was done already, as no professor need Dow sign the articles, is was shown particularly in the case of the professor of chemistry, who had never subscribed the articles, and had never been required to do so. la fact there was nothing to prevent any person, as far as subscription was concerned. from attaining any degree in the university. His right rev. brother had spoken of the disinclination of the younger men at the universities to make the subscription, and of the danger there was in forcing it upon them. Since the last discuaaiou upon this subject, bowover, there had been • remarkable demonstration of what the fact was with regard to thin supposed disinclin►tion. Upon a bill being proposed in another place which would affect the whole question of subscription, • petition was got up by the younger members of the University of Oxford praying that DO alteration might be made in the existing law. And how many did their lordships' think signed that pe tition ! No fewer than 1,030, the whole number of undergraduates resident in the university being only 1.300. (Hear, hear.) The Al question, then, was this—how was it possible to maintain in • church like the church of England, which was so free, at every two, to which every conceivable kind of discipline was a stranger, which did welcome the freest action of thought coosistent with the admission of the great doctrines of Christionity-- how was it possible to maintain any dogmatic teaching whatever in such • church after every other restraint had been abandoned, if they also gave up every profession of belief from those who held office in the universities? The next step would be to abolish subscription in the collagen. Then they would be called on to surrender that required from the clergy, and then how wculd it be possible to main tain the teaching of external truth of any kind by authority, (Hear, hear.) After a few words of explanation (which were inaudible in the gallery), from Lord Num% The Earl of CARNASVON stated that no less than 2,000 non-resident members of the University of Oxford, mem bers of conv.ication and masters of site, bad also expressed their entire concurrence in the prayer of the undergraduates' petition referred to by the right rev. prelate. (Hear, bear.) The Bishop of OXFORD gave notice that on Monday he would move that the petition presented by Earl Russell be printed. THAMES EMBANKMENT (SOUTH SIDE) BILL.

TRADE TO NEUTRAL PORTS. Mr. CARNEGIE wished to ask the Attorney-General whether, in the existing state of affairs:in America, it was contrary to international law to consign arms, ammunition, or medicines to the ports of Quebec, Haman, Matamoros, and Havana, or any one of them ; and whether a weasel bound to any of the above-mentioned ports containing such articles would be liable to oondemnatiou by a prize court. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in the absence of the At. torziey-General, said the question had been asked and an swered over and over again. If the coatignaent was reel and bonA fide, and intended to be delivered at a neutral port, there could be no doubt that no vessel bound to such a port could be condemned by the prize court. There was Boni. danger of persons deceiving themselves by answers given to abstract questions on the principles of public law. He wa not aware that there was a single instance in which the prize court,' of America had laid down any new doctrine whatever. SEIZURE OF GROWING CROPS IN IRELAND. Sir H. BRUCE wished to ask the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he would introdocethis session a bill on the subject of the stave of growing crops in Ireland. Sir It. PEEL mid that on Monday he intended to intro duce a bill on the subject. THE UNION RELIEF MD ACTS CONTINUANCE BILL Mr. TOLLEMACHE wished to uk the President of the Poor-law Board if he would postpone the second reading of the Union Relief Aid Acts Continuance Bill till after the interview which he bad promised to give, on Wednesday next, to a deputation from the =giant.' of the cotuatie3 most interested in the question involved in the bill. Mr. VILLIERS said he would consent to postpone the second reading, if his hon. friend desired it, until after Wed- Imlay next, but his hon. friend must be responsible for the delay. FRONTIER DEFENCES OF CANADA. Wand ANNESLEY wished to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether her Majesty's government had received the report of the commission sent out last year to ioquire; into the frontier defences of Canada ; and if so, whether it was their intention to carry out at present the whole or any part of the recommendationa contained in that report. . . The 'Marquis of HARTINOTON said the report had been rewired. The subject, however, was one as much, if not more, for the consideration of the colonial government u for that of the home government. (Hear, hear.) Certain po litical 00C1117000511 bad prevented the local government of Canada from taking the question into consideration. The home government had consequently not taken any steps in the matter, and until the co lo nial government had decided on the matter it was impossible for him to say what steps would be taken. EXHIBITION LAND. Colonel FRENCH, in the *teepee of Kr. Gregory, wished to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the com missioners of 1851 are to be paid the sum of 120,000 i. for land at Keosington before the government is placed in clear poescasion . 9f the land. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQTJER said the auni of money voted by the house &snoopiest to 67,0001., which sum had been paid to the commissioners to clear off certain pending obligations. The government had no power to pay any further sum till a vote was granted by the house. He thought the moat natural arrangement would be that the balance should be paid on the completion of the con veyance for the transfer of the land. THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 4, 1863. Thep had lately seen in the lobby of the house • beautiful specimen of cotton from Jamaica. Now, there were mem bers in the house who possessed estates in the West Indies but he was not aware that any comma nicatione had been made by the government to the officials in those islands to stimulate them to grow cotton. (Hear.) Turkey and Italy were both beginning to grow coke% so was Egypt, end even China had sent some very beautiful specimens to their relief. Is was most unreasonable to ex pect spinners also to become growers of oo . tton, whilst so much in that way might be done by properly encouraging colonists. Look at what America was doing. lit) acres of land were Hued to able bodied animists, whilst we tendered 14 ecru in Australia, not equivalent to the oust of the passage over. Recently M. Aria Dufour and some French gentlemen called on him (h. Baxley) respecting the cultivation of cotton in Algeria, and tendered on the i part of their government the offer of 60,000 acres of lend in Algeria to an Anglo-French company to be devoted to the production of cotton. Had our Indian department ever I thought of such an offer? However there were military, or he might uy red-tapery, difficulty io Algiers, and he 'wilds i friends were obliged to decline the offer of the 60,000 urea. But what were the French government doing? Draining and irrigating the land, and preparing it in army way for cotton. In the meantime our government had done nothing, whilst the Cotton Supply Association of Manchester had distributed 300 tons of cotton seed, and had sent gins to every part of the world where cotton mild be grown. It wuidletherefore to accuse the trade of apathy in the matter. They hoped soon to be planters as well as facturers, and had in Queensland produced 4001 b,. of cotton ' on ten acres of ground. Where in any other part of the world could they expect such a production? There was • Natal, also, where there were the best prospects. It might be said that government could not interfere with private 'enterprise, but he would ask, was the rule observed in the case of opium ? In the Southern States of America cotton could not be grown at lees than threepence the pound, but in India they would see by the blue- bo ok excellent cotton could be predated for three farthings • pound. He believed in fact that if the Indian department bad exhibited proper seal and energy in dere ' loping the cotton-producing resources of India, Lancashire ' might have been spared the calamity which was crushing to the earth the most industrious population in the world. He did not think that any more inquiry was necessary, but that what they wanted was saloon. Thy had the way, and all they wanted was the will on the part of the government He had rewired a letter train Calcutta dated ' , D. , nd April, which in his judgment contained the whole pith of the question. The writer said that India could grow cotton enough for the consumption of Ragland, but that it could not be done without government interfe rence ; es, no matter what the feeling might be at head quarters, the great difficulty in India lay in dealing with the subordinates, who persisted in treating all Europeans as in terlopers. He would in comic/ion express Lis belief that with proper measures we might become wholly independent of America for our supply of cotton, as we could get ample supplies from other countries. Mr. SMOLLETT did not see that any practical remit could follow this motion, as the bon. member could hardly expect to get a select committee to nit in the dog days. He doubted the prospect of a supply of cotton from India, and had in • former debate ex pressed his opinion that the opening of the river Godavery would be of no benefit in the transmission of the supply. Re would recommend ministers to issue • commas ion in India before they embarked in a speculation which would cost a million of money, or organised • new service, to maintain which would cost 300,0001. a year. Mr. COBDEN ridiculed the efforts hitherto made by the Indian government to stimulate the growth of the cotton plant in our eastern possessions, and which he said were more like those of • small chandler's shop than of an im perial government entrusted with responsible duties. Two measures had been recommended for encouraging cotton cultivation in India. One was the settlement of the land upon • perpetual tenure, and the other the sale of the waste lands ; but he owned he did not share in the sanguine hopes which some persona formed with regard Ito the effects of these measures. He thought, however, ' that an alteration in the system of collection in India might be introduced with advantage. The hon. member also observed that at the foot of the Rooky Mountains, in the western valley of the Mississippi, there was to exhaustless field for the production of cotton, with a soil and climate I admirably adapted to the plant, and which only required the investment of English skill, capital, and enterprise for its full development. After • short speech from Mr. FENDER, Sir C. WOOD said he admitted that it was the duty of the Indian government to improve the internal communica tions of the country, and that duty they had not neglected. In fact, the communications in India were mute equal to thou of the United States, while every effort visa being made still further to improve and extend them. As to cotton cultivation, it had already been tried in India, and after a five Teen' experience the ex. periment had proved • failure. It was true that in some instances it had been attended with a measure of success, but, on the whole, it was found that cotton raised in that country could not compete with that which was grown in more favoured regions. At the same time there was no indisposition on the part of the government to moist private enterprise in the attempt to promote its cul ture in India. Mr. CRAWFORD approved of the °owns which bad been followed by the government in reference to this Mr. BRIGHT rid that the greatest possible dial' satisfaction existed at the manner in which the cotton supply question wee treated at the India-office. He did not deny but that unreasonable expectations might be enter tained, but still there was a general complaint down in lan cadre that deputation were treated by the boo. gentleman in the most flippant and irritating manner, and that instead of entering cordially into the propositions submitted, the right hon. gentleman's tonvereation and manner were entirely obstructive. So much bed this been the case that many men of the highest position and influence is lama shire had declined to go any more on deputations to the India-001os. He (Mr. Bright) had told them that they could not expect Sir Charles Wood to supply them with • million bales of cotton, but then that was no reason why something should not be done for a manufacture which supported such veal numbers of the people. Deputations might also be sect away dissatis fied that they had been speaking to • statesman who was anxious to do his hest for them. He had now said what he had to say on this question. He did not believe that any man could supply them with millioes of bales of cotton, although it might have been done twenty years ago. He hoped the right hon. gentleman would forgive him, and if not he (Mr. Bright) would forgive the right hon. gentleman if be would only treat the deputations which waited on him with • little more courtesy and attention. Mr. T. G. BARING wu unable to detect any tangible pro position brought for ward by the boo, member, showing what the government ought to have dope, that they had neglected. The Council of India had been meat anxious to do every thing in their power, consistently with their duty, to encourage the increase in the exports of cotton from India ; they had been in constant communication with the Cotton Supply Association ; the journal of that society had been filled with reports supplied from the India-office ; experi ments in the production of cotton had been continued, and very recently • new description—the cotton of Peru—bsd been introduoed with considerable prospects of success. But what the Secretary of State had constantly re fused to do was to tax the people of India in order to extend the cultivation of cotton. (Hear, bear.) With regard to the alterations which his right hon. Mood had thought it to make in the resolution framed by the Lovernirent oflndia uto the sale of waste lands, that matter having been fully discussed upon a motion which, after the discussion, was withdrawn, be did not think he was called upon to enter into it now. Mr. J. B. SMITH observed that the question of the growth of cotton in India was not merely a question of price, but also of quality. If India could produce cotton equal to the American she could get the same price for it, and that she could produce the some quality had been de cided 20 years ago. The other night the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs unconsciously compared the state of India and Turkey. He quoted " Neill's Circular" is order to show that Turkey bad of late years made greater p thou any other country, end that it would soon be able to compete with America even in ordinary times. He (Mr. Smith) much regretted the manner in which the right hon. gentleman received deputations. He had accompanied four to the right hon. gentleman, and they had all been offended. (Hear, beer.) The right hop. gentleman did not do himself justice, and the molt was that be cut himself off from • great deal of information that might be of great ensue to him. Mr. H. SEYMOUR felt certain that the report of the committee must lead to a total change in the policy of the Secretary of State for India. The chief preventive to the growth of cotton in India was the obstructiveness of the government. . _ _ Mr. FERRAND said be could not help saying a few words on tie change of principle of the freetraders of the Manchester school. In 1846, when they were hounding on the late Etir Robert Peel to destroy protection, he (Mr. Ferraod) warned them that the time would come when they would go down on their beaded knees and ask for pro tection, and now it would seem that the time bad come. Let him advise them to trust to the law of supple and de mand for the future—(laughter)—and not come there whining for protection. They ought n o t t o d esert t h e i r principles without having the honesty to avow that they had done so. 11r.CAifiD mid he would withdraw the motion. (Cries of "No.") THE CASE OF COLONEL CRAWLEY. Mr. BUTT, pursuant to notice, inquired of the Under Secretary of State for War whether it ass intended to try Colonel Crawley, on his arrival in England, by court martial or by the civil tribunals of the country. The accusation brought sgaingst him was that he had abused his military authority, and it amounted in tact to • charge of murder or manslaughter. He (Mr. Butt) would carefully refrain from offering any opinion as to the 01160, but be believed that a constitutional principle of some importance was involved in it. A court.martial could not take oogoissnoe of • charge of murder or manslaughter, and the well-known case of Governor Wall--a similar charge to that brought against Colonel Crawley, and from which be sincerely bosond he would clear himself—was tried at the Old Bailey before • common law judge and • jury. Assuming the facia stated to be true, the moment Colonel Crawley put his foot on British soil any one could bring him before a magintrate for m• slaughter, and he thought that • verdict by a criminal tribunal of the charge against him would be mote satisfactory than the decision of any court-mania JAPAN. Mr. COCHRANE raked whether he was to understand that her Majesty's governmeet objected to lay on the table the papers relating to Japan. Mr. LA YARD mid be simply drained to present further papers till the Feeding negotratioas were concluded, THE DEBATE ON AMERICA. Mr. ROEBUCK eked whether the Secretary of State for the Home Department had obtained the consent of the heed of the government for fixing the adjourned debate for Monday week. . _ _ Sir G. GREY said he had not had an opportunity of seeing his noble friend since yesterday. He believed, however, it was certain that his noble friend would be in the house on Monday next, wheu he could reply to the hon. and learned gentleuaila question. SUPPLY OF COTTON. On the motion for going into committee of supply, Mr. CAIRD, in ruing to move for a select committee to inquire whether any farther measures can be Wow,. within the legitimate functions of the Indian government, for increasing the supply of cotton from that country, said that the aspect of this question was somewhat different from what it was a month ago, in consequence of the reso lution come to by the right hon, gentleman the Secretary of State for India respecting the tenure of land in India. The events in America showed that they could no longer depend exclusively on that country for the supply of cotton. He hoped the discussion as it proceeded would assure the peopleof this country that they might expect an early supply of cotton and sufficient to till up the great gap which had been occasioned by the civil war in America. The bon. gentle man concluded by moving in the terms mentioned above. (14 ? - 1 ; tafr.) ' Mr. BAZLEY said he agreed with hie hon. friend in many of his observations, though he did not hold the lan. guise views which he entertained. He agreed with him in his general conclusions as to the resources of India being so large that if tithe country did not in a short time receive large augmentations of cotton from India the Indian de. partruent of the government would be very much to blame. (Hear, hear.) Looking at the state of the manufacturing districts, he submitted that it was the business of the house to inquire whether the departments which governed their East Indian and Colonial posiessioth had performed their duty. Since the breaking out of the war in America the great cotton dietricts in the North had been afflicted with an amount of distreth beyond thythiog ever beard of or known io this country. Capital had been lying waste ; labour had been pauperised, and banished from its home. and the prospects of the manufacturing districts of the country were very gloomy. Formerly this country consumed 50,000 bags of cotton per week-42,000 of which came from America. That was to say 8.5 per cent of the quantity imported came from America ; 8 per emit. from Egypt and other for e ig n countries, and seven per cent only front India. At that moment they had no reason to suppose that a larger quantity then formerly was being grown in India. (Hear, hear.) Eon Ruston had stated some time ago that he had required all the consuls of this country to mend information to the Foreign-office of the quantity of tortes grown in the oountries in which they resided. That was a laudable service rendered by the noble lord ; and the troder•Secretary for Foreign Affairs had dis played considerable alacrity in following the aame course. Hut be would like to know whether any other department of the government had done anything in this respect What had the Indian and Colonial department.; done to ieduar persons residing in India and the colonies to cultivate cotton! (Hear, bear.) The house bad been passing atria to provide extraordinary employment for the people in the north of England, but the government bad neglected to do their dirty, and the coosequenoe was that they had withheld hole the people that material which would have supplied them with labour comfort, and abundance, (Hear, hear.) He hoped this debate would stimulate the government in this arratermweate kw the cabinet= of cotton in India. Colonel DUNNE protested, as • military man, against the ors of Colonel Crawley being prejudged, and said it was well known that he could not be charged with murder, as Sergeant-Major Lilley was confined, not by his orders, but.by the orders of the commander-in-chief. The Marquis of HASTINGTOS said the quokka whr Sur Colonel Crawley should be tried by a court-mania , or by the Court of Queen's Becch, or any other tribunal bad been carefully considered both by the Horse Guards and the War-office, aad they had arrived at the conclusion that as the charges against him were of a mili tary nature, the proper course was to try him, before • court-martial. (Hear, hear.) He would add his request to that of the hon. and gallant member who bad just spoken, that bon. members should not, by continually raising them discussions, prejudge the cue, and influence the minds of those who had finally to decide it. (Hear, hear.) With regard to whether the J udge-Advouste- General bad given any opinion on the allegations of Pay master Solace, he could only repeat what be had stated on • former occasion, that the communications between the Judge-Advocate-General and the War-offloe , were of a private and confidential nature, and that it was not for the public interest nor the ends of justice that they should be produced before they bad been acted upon. He therefore hoped that the house would not think he was guilty of any want of respect to it if he declined to give any further answer. (Hear, hear.) Mr. CONINGHAM said that, he for one, bad not lightly made any attacks, as be was one of the first to protest against Colonel Crawley being made the scapegoat, when officers in high positions were compromised. He had to in form the house that Corporal Blake, of the Enniskilling Dragoons, was tried by court-martial, and sentenced to 42 drys imprisonment, for posting • sentinel outside instead of inside the verandah of the room where Sergeant-Major Lilley was confined.

The atrocious crime (says the Dublin Daily Express) was committed under aggravated circumstances, which rendered it incumbent on the crown to prosecute with a firm determination to vindi cate the law. It arose out of a double cause—the fact that the unfortunate victim, • young man named Beglan, had taken part against the popular candidate at the last con tested election, and what was still greater offence is the estimation of hie murderers, be bad even dared to give evidence against their friends in • court of justice. It appeared that he was examined as • witness against some persona who were charged with being concerned in the disgraceful riots which took place at Bally. mahon. For this he was doomed in the secret councils of the Ribbon conspiracy, and the vengeance treasured up at the time fell upon him with fatal certainty several month. after the election. On the day he met his untimely death he had gone into Ballymthou with bis aged father so attend • fair. Four neighbours, profeseing friends accompanied them on their way home. After crossing brinan-bridge, however, the young man was set upon by a party of oda eremite armed with bludgeons, and when his father, who had legged behind, came up with him, he found him matched upon the ground, with his assailants completing their bloody work, while hie own companions looked on without raising a han d: to shield him. Fortunately for the ends of justice, the old man was able to recognise one of the mur derers, and positively identified him at the trial. The sentence upon the prisoner has Dot yet been pronounced.

The reepondint, a farmer at Greenforn-green, Sudbury, near Harrow, married the petitioner in August, 1660, and the aohabitation continued till the autumn of lest year. The petitioner complained that very shortly after the wedding her husband began to treat her with Dankness and cruelty. He used bad langual,e, threatened her life, spat in bar face and mouth, pinohed and beat her. The petitioner's narrative was in some repeats corroborated by her mother and brother. Elizabeth Pearce, a servant to the parties, stated that nee night, while her mistress was from home, her master asked bey to drink with him ; afterwards he took her into his room, and made her spend the night with him. Witnies was very ill before the morning. Mrs. Gurney came home the neat day. This intimacy was repeated on another occasion when Mrs. Gurney was from home. Mr. Gurney told witness that soother servant, named Eliesbeth Angel. bad also slept with him while his wife was away, bat that he had always made ber take • bath tint. Eliabeth An g el i;iniCkled denied the charge ; but Mr. M'lntoeh, a solicitor's clerk, stated that he had watched her with the respondent into a public-hones, where they remained is a private room for an hour cod a half. Afterwards told the respondent what he had discovered ; and he mid that he had always been a gay fellow, and KM. (hie wife) knew that when she married him. Angel (recalled by the judge) said that she did not re member meeting with the respondent in London, or going with hinito thepublic-home. There were some letters, pat in, ' which appeared to col. tain admissions by the respondent of the adultery. The jury found for the petitioner. Decree nisi with costa. JOHNSON (IN TONNA PAUTIMIS) v. JOHNSON AND ALLAY. Dr. Deem, Q.C., and Mr. Hoffman, for the petitioner Dr. Spinks for respondent; Mr. Ser;eint Ballantyne and Mr Moll for the co-respondent. . . . The snit was for • divorce on the ground of adulterv, and also to recover 6004 as damages from the co-respondent. The petitioner, George Johnson, was a fireman on board • steamship, and in 1859 he wedded the respond eat, a widow nanicit Walker, who had two children. There was no living issue of this second marriage. The co-respondent was Jacob Allen, the owner of the Itateliff-cross Iron Works. The parties themselves were about thirty years of age ; but the co-respondent was described as a man of nearly sixty. It was stated that Allen, who was au old friend of the wife's family, visited Yrs. Johnson during her husband's ab sences% sea much more frequently than widish, was at home. In September, 1882, her landlord, one White, • grocer and lightennen, at No. 7, Davenport-place, Oommereiet i: r4 suspecting as be slated An. Johnson's conduct, en himself under her bed. Soon afterwards the respondent came into the room and lay down. The witness deposed to an amorous convey ation which he said he bad beard ; but both he and his wife appeared to have • considerable animal against the respondent., and they admitted that ilia. Johnson had given notice to leave her lodgings . White gave hie evidence with an emphasis and graphic vigour that excited great laughter. In the defence it was contended that the evidence of the Whites was wholly unworthy of credit, and that the inter course between the respondent. was a perfectly innocent one. The jury took this view of the case, and found for the respondents. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. A young German, who gave the fictitious name of Philip Brown, was brought up before the Lord Mayor sod Mr. Alderman Abbiss, sitting in petty session, charged with breaking into the office of Mr. Polack, of 12. Philpot-lane, and stealing • quantity of wearing articles of apparel, The prosecutor left his office at about 12 o clock on Wed nesday, and after locking the door left the key with the housekeeper. lie returned about four on the same day, and having procured his key, upon attempting to open the door he found it was fastened on the inside. He looked through the crevice of the door, and saw the prisoner in the room. The door was opened, and the prisoner begged to be allowed to go, saying that be was starving, and went downstairs, and was followed by the prosecutor, who gave him into custody. Upon being searched • number of small articles were found upon him, which were identified by the prosecutor se his property. In the room was • bundle consisting of almost everything serviceable that the prisoner had been able to lay hands upon, all packed up ready for removal. The prisoner was also identified as bevies been seen to leave an office in Sine-lane, from wheat* • cloak and some other articles were raised immediately site% The prinoner pleaded guilty , and was sentenced to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. Benjamin 7uller, • young man, describing himself as • portor, was brought op on remand charged with having in his possession a quantity of opium, knowing it to have been stolen. Mr. Rumplieu prosecuted. It appeals that for some time past • large quantity of opium has been extracted from time to time from the lighters of Mr. Russell, lighterman, of Upper Thames-street, on its transit from the Loudon Docks to the warehouses of Mews. Kearns and Co., Red Lion Wharf. Detective officers Ruggett and Funnell have been for some time lined in endeavouring to trace by what means the robberies were, perpetrated, and in the morning of Saturday last saw the prisoner in King William-street carrying • parcel. They had suspected him for some time, and they followed him backwards and forwards from Gracechurchetreet to London. bridge for about an hoer ►nd • half, when they "topped him and asked him what he had in the parcel. The prisoner said he did not know what it contained. as be picked it up in Grecechurch-street. They cooveyed him to the station, and found the parcel to contain five and • half pounds of opium. The prisoner then said that he met • man the evening before who bad the appearance of • dock labourer, ' and who asked him to take care of the parcel and meet him in Gracechurchetreet at 11 o'clock that morning, to give it hint again. The prisoner upon that evidence was remanded until yes terday, when it was proved that the prisoner was on board • lighter named providence, belonging to Mr. Russell, which had been employed to remove some opium and fruit from a vessel in the London Docks to Messrs. Kearns' wharf. The lighter, it appeared, was unnecessarily de layed in the dock, and upon her arrival at the wharf it was found that one of the cases of opium had been opened from the bottom sod several pieces of opium hod been abstracted. Josh ua Cutler, the foreman of the drug department, ex. amined the opium which was found in the prisoner's posses sion, and said he had no doubt whatever thatit was the same which had been abstracted from the emu in question. The quantity tallied, and the quality and mould corresponded precisely. The prisoner, who repeated the latter statement which he had made to the officers, was committed for trial. UUII;DHALL John Beckett, the relieving officer of the West London Colon, was summoned before Alderman Copeland to answer the following complaint. .. _ Cox, -- Michael Cox, a decrepid old roan, said—l am 67 years of age. lam usable to work, and my wife is unable to get anything to do, so we Lave been receiving from the Wert Loudon Union during the last 6or 7 months one 41b. loaf and 2s. 6d. every week, and as that was not sufficient to support us, for we have parted with everything, I applied on 'Tuesday last to be taken into the house at the West London Union, sod went before the board, but they refused to admit me. Oa Wednesday I felt very bad and sent my wife to the doctor (Mr. Kelly), and he gave me a medical order, stating I was suffering from great debility, and recom mending that I should be supplied with Ma, of beef and some oatmeal. I sent my wife with the order cn Thursday morning, but the defendant refused to give her the beef and ostmosl. In reply to this charge it wu attempted to be shown that the doctor had given his certificate in ignorance of the true state of the case, and soother certificate of complainant's state by the Fame medical man was put in supporting thin view of the matter, and stating teat complaisant was able to follow his usual occupation. Alderman Copeland rid, however, that be stionl 1 fine defendant 40a, and have the whole of the depositions for warded to the Poor-law Board. Beckett—Will you increase the fine to fiL, en that I can appeal' Alderman Copeland—No. I have no doubt about the ease. I have given my decision and shall not swerve from it. Beckett—Then it is a very unjust decision. Alderman Copeland —lb "not make any impertinent re marks, or I shall have to deal with you for contempt of court, The decision was received by the auditory with unmistake able tokens of approbation, and the defendant (who vowed he would not pay the fine) was greeted with groans and hisses as he prepared to It-anthe court. CLE#XENWELL A well-dressed man, who gave the name of Jolts Johnson sod described himself as a warehouseman, residing at 80, Packingtonatreet, Islington, was charged before Mr. Barker with committing a moat brutal assault on his wife, Ellen Rosa Johnson. _ _ Complainant stated that on the night in question her husband struck her a tremendous blow, and m ad e her noes bleed very much. He bed struck her many times before, but she bad not complained. She would not have appeared against him now had he apologised, or said be would not do .9 .l*°*. . Zr 7 Alexander—ls that the assault you complain of ! Complainant—No. (She then bared bar arms, and a most dreadful sight presented Wal(. The right arm from the elbow to the shoulder was like a piece of black liver, and not a &Male particle of white skin could b e seen .

The defendant said—l admit that I struck her and in flicted those injuries, but I did it in salt defence. Il I bad not done so I should have had my eyes scratched out. Mr. Alexander (to complainant)—You hear what he says. Is that so ? . _ Complainant—No ; I put up my hands in self•defenca. He called me vile names. and I told him if I was what he represested me he was worse. Mr. Barter adjourned the ease for a few days, and ordered the defendant to enter into his own reonnisances in the sum of la to appear CD that day week. The defendant then left the oourt, and was Mold the did so. MARKET& SrG_AR- - Th.-..-STOL, JULY 2. —The dimmed bas bee n ' my limited, arid the sales ceutinod to about 2UO hints.

Buyers weld probably do more business if they could find stacks, but many manufacturers Will not produce unless to order. At the same time it most be remembered that owing to so many mills being closed some kinds of cloth, of peculiar and very very superior makes, have ceased to be poduced, and buyers are unable to meet with them at any price, which leads to much inconvenience and dis appointment Some of these buyers will not enter into contract for the supply of theme goods They would take them if in stock and available for imme diate shipment, but they will undertake no risk ouch as a future supply would involve.
