A second instants may be taken from the Leeds May of Saturday last. " A person in humble circumstances, residing in the neighbourhood of Bradford, had a daughter grown up, who is terribly afflicted with epilepsy, the fits of which have grievously affected her both mentally and bodily. The father went to one of those half quacks, half " wise men," as they are te rm ed. which to the disgrace of the sr still infest this neighbourhood ! for adrift respecting the young woman.

It appeared, that the defendant had lest a cloak from off a clothes' line in the heeplad-yard, and having consulted with her cronies, it was uselved that she should go to a " cunning woman," blame Ilemennah Rix, who was noted far and wide for her skill miketeedes thieves by means of charms and incantations. The deleadest,aellemparoed by a friend, visited Mrs. Rix, and laid helm hat the bib of the ease. The " wise woman" took her took of incantation, and reed a long rigmarole, ending, of course, with a string of jaw-breaking words, which are supposed to be the peou kar Magmas* of gnomes, genii, and the spirits apportioning Asi Imps, end chains. She then told flee defendant WV bine, and return in a day or two, when it wee" liable," HAG put her trust in God, that she would guile* sleek again. The old woman returned at the eppeisked tine ,• and the " wise woman" having, we suppose,la the Interva l been favoured with a personal interview (by the . aid of her wondrous power) with the thief, gave a desmipticia of her, which, unfortunately, corresponded with Mn. Burley's ap pearance. The defendant, on reaching home, immediately charged Mrs. B. with taking the cloak, sad had " bothered her so" ever since, that she was obliged to apply for protec tion to the magistrates. Inspector Peek said, he received information of the robbery and he found the cloak at a pawnbroker's, where it had been pledged by a lad in a fustian coat, who went there in great haste, saying his mother was very ill, and wanted some money to pay for the doctor. The magistrates said it was most likely that the lad had just stolen the cloak, and advised the defendant to let the matter drop, as it was evident the complainant had nothing to do with it. Susannah Rix, who resides near the Rising Sun, was then brought forward, and asked u to her share in the business. She acknowledged that she told fortunes, and helped people to regain their lost property, but said, she did not make use of anything evil ; she =aced her book (a very old one), entitled, " A Book ofooggyy and Necromancy," and pointed out the charm she used. There was also an incantation for raising " the dark gentle man," with a 11111-length portrait, with horns and tall. Mr. Palmer asked if she believed she could raise " him," and if he would appear in that shape She said, the book was some centuries old, and she did not thick the " spirit" would come in that 'attire in the present day. The magistrates cautioned her. that if they heard of her practising in her profession again, they should send her to prison for three months. She said if her husband behaved to her as he ought, she should not be obliged to take " tuppences and throppences" from people for telling their fortunes. Mr. Hudson thought her art must be weak, if she could not make him rapport her properly. The case was then dismissed. A cemelading quotation may be made from the Inverness Courier to show that Soodeadei equally implicated in this superstitious ignorance. Johnitair son, 24 years of age, residing at Manilla, in the island of Harris, wag brought before J R. Macdonald, Big : , J. P., Rodil, to answer to a singular charge of propagating his belief in a ridiculers and vulgar superstition, or of imposing a fiction on his credulous neighbours. It appears that about a fort night ago, on a dark night, in a wild and solitary moor, as Morrison was journeying homewards from Obe, where he had been to procure sense medicine for a sick child, he observed on his way, near a lake, an object which appeared to him as possessed of life. As he proceeded onwards, towards a burn in his course, he again perceived the tome object, which he now knew to be a female, walking slowly . before him over the stepping stones in the burn. He salubid her, but she made no reply. Having a stick in his hand, lie raised it to push the female with it, that she aght nodes it; but still not a word was spoken. He then became very much alarmed, and, fearing that he had met with an appa rition, he repeated some Gaelic psalms. After the lapel of a little time, and on a nearer inspection of her " mouth and nose," he recognised her as a eusin of his own who died some three yrarsap. She at length broke the solemn Wanes which she had maintained, and the following conference took place . " You have now got a school at Mulish ? " To which he replied, "We have." " You attend it yourself? " I do." " There is not a day you do so, then, but you backslide, step by step, from your Creator ; and I little thought that any friends of mine would have gone to that school." fibs further added, that " she was commissioned to go abroad, about Lammas last, in quest of s sayer!, but till now failed in getting one; and that unless be published among hie neighbours this message, she would soon repeat her visit." This aerial spirit then took flight, and instantly rankled! On getting home the youth took to his bed, and, aceardiet le his own statement, has scarcely got over the fright yet. • new edition of the story was, however ' soon of erica Net up, with the addenda that, on some future wig% Met if distant, the school-house was to be set on fire . by amyl apparition. It is needless to say the story gained ready are deuce among the ignorant and unenlightened natives ; and the school—which is in connexion with the education selems of the general assembly of the church of Ikederl—erhal it could biAst of sixty-four scholars before tile eepersatieral appearance occurred, has dwindled down to sixteen. The schoolmaster, Mr. Donald M'Lean, fearing that the threat of burning his school-house might be carried into execution by this wonderful visitor, in some of her nocturnal expeditions, enraged a man, and provided him with his own gun, and pave him directions to patrol and keep watch throughout the night, and, by firing it, scare away any one intent upon an incendiary errand. As his scholars were daily disappearing, the poor dominie at length left the school house, scholars and all, and started for Rodil, with the view of causing an investigation to be made by Mr. Macdonald, trusting that the result of that investigation would be such as to allay his fears, and enable him to return and prosecute his labours. After a very searching investigation of the ease Morrison was dismissed, and the matter still remains in slab; quo. . 111 LIBUT.WAOHORN ON THEMIDITERRANLAN"TUBIe is the Herald newspaper that continually Whin about her Majesty's Oslo stamen, as they call them, between Marseille+ and Malta; and no matter what happens ebur when by delays, miessamegesat, or private porpoise, elf taking In cargo It still the Peninsaksr and Oriental (:oar iany arak vi e ga her Majesty's tub stamina, as they call them, responsible for everything that takes plans.

Again, their Brick-st. Ripen (why called Brickst. that company best knows) leaves Southampton Jen. 20, and cannot get to Gibraltar till the 30th. All this is from Lloyd's List. The one is eleven days getting from Southampton to Gibraltar—the other is ten days ; the ordinary time being six days, and it has often been done in four and a helf. Yet the Herold wilt make H.M.'s steamers between Malta and Marseilles responsible for this. This, air, is the way the made are constantly delayed at Alexandria, and not frcea the insufficiency of MIL'. SteaMers, although I do not ma s ay r are first-rate , but as the Admiralty are intent upon ins that service, surely the Admiralty should not be the hatt of the Peninsular and Oriental company in the columns of the Herald.

Tug SMITHFIELD NUlSSNCE.—Yosterday after noon as Iwo oxen were driven from Smithfield towards Bayswater-rood, one of them being struck, turned end attacked the drover. The woad ox tented and gored the flanks of the first, which gave the drover a chance to extricate himself, loaning the animals to continuo their combat. Be fore they could be parted, a cab was overturned and several perms were injured. JUVENILE OeFENDERIL—Upon the recommenda tion of the Secretary of State for the Home Department, twenty-five juvenile criminals wee* yesterday admitted into the Philanthropic Institution, St. George's-road, Southwark, upon the conditions of the expenses of their board and cloth iug Wino defrayed.--The criminals transmitted to the society were from Pa , Aunt prison. SURGICAL OPERATIONS WITHOUT PAIN. On Thursday last, at St. Genge's Hospital, two formidable operations were performed whilst the patients were under the nfluence of ether. The first was a case of lithotomy ; the patient, a boy of four years of age, who was admitted into the hospital under the ease of Mr. Cutler. The child evinced much terror, and was remarkably violent till the ether was administered, but on reepiriag the vapour for two or throe minutes became insensible, and during the operation was perfectly ruder}, and appeared to suffer neither pain nor die c onion. in the second ease, the patient, a woman forty years of age, had su ff ered for the last twelve months from a urge tumour in the right breast; Mr. H. C. Johnson, to whose care she was committed, having determined on the removal of the tumour, proceeded to its extirpation, which was successfully accomplished in a few minutes. The phe. nomene produced in this instance, as the effects of ether, were somewhat peculiar. The woman had been in the her p;tal a nirnth previously, and there suffered severely from smi attack of bronchitis. She left the hospital for a time, alai was re.adreitted two or three days wince, for the purpose ailalr dergoing the operation, the bronchitis having somewhat oar aided. For the last ten years the had had a troublesome I cough from a diseased condition of the bronchial tubes. - These circumstances iedueed him to hold a consultation with his colleagues as to the p ' of administering the ether, when the cheat was so far im • ted in a chronic disorder. It was detormined that as, ti priori, no good physiological reason existed against the administration of the ether, the poor woman should be submitted to its influence. The patient accordingly inhaled the vapour. Cough was soon induced, which was followed by a rapid pulse, but by so very decided effect on the pupil of the eye. She did not appear to be insensible, but became somewhat livid in aspect, from a partial state of asphyxia, and although the ether was continued for many minutes during this state, perfect uncoasciosumeas did not supervene. Mr. Johnson asked the woman, at the conclusion of the operation, if else had suffered during the employment of the knife. She said that she was perfectly ewer, of what was going on, but had not felt the slightest pain. After the patient was placed in '.ed, she again asserted what she had before stated. From this last case it would appear that the existence of bronchitis does not vitiate the advantage' derived from the inhalation of ether is surgical operations, and moreover, that, although a state of insensibility is not always induced, that bodily pain may by the influence of this agent, be _p_revented. ON THE USK AND ABUSE OF HOSPITALS.—SIT, — At the present time, when most of the London hospitals are circulating tbeir begging advertisements in the daily news papers, end collecting large sums from a liberal public, surely it is s very proper and fitting opportunity to direct attention and inquiry as to the due appropriation of the various amounts contributed for the charitable pur poses intended ; or whether there are not too main instances of the seal-appropriation, misuse, and II may say abuse of that good and benefit which the donors and supporters consider to have promoted. I I sus prepared, however, to show that the humane purposes' of these charities, are constantly and most wantonly diverted from their proper course, and rather made a vehicle for private interests, than for the reli4 of truly pitiable objects. As it is the received opinion that the' poor and seedy only are supposed to have a claim upon such institutions, ie it not, I would ask, a misuse and abuse of their funds in any way to allow admission (except under peculiar circumstances) of persons who ' , have ample means, from their own resources, to obtain medical assistance elsewhere. It is a matter, however, of daily notoriety, that persons present themselves at hos pitals, and are received as patients, whom circumstances in life would seem to justify such an application, and it is to the surprise of many that the medical otßoeofficers silently permit such encroachment*. In the course of my attendance on the London hospitals (now some years) I have too lorg witnessed, and often expensed my indignation that such practices should be tolerated.—From numerous cases which I have taken some trouble to investigate, it appeared that the parties wore well able not only to procure private medi cal attendance, but to exhibit themselves at all times with the ornaments and frippery of fashion ; others, influenced by still more sordid motives, make it a matter of eco nomy, ashy a trivial contribution per annum they claim the privileges of sending the whole of their establishment, often very numerous, for medical advice and medicines throughout the year. On the other hand, in too manfeases where poor mis erable objects present themselves for relief, they are abruptly rejected, and dismissed, as only fit for the tender mercies of a workhouse—the reason assigned being that, although labour ing under disease, often of a very frightful form, they are not suitable subjects for the instruction of medical sad surgical pupils. I fear that the private interests of the physicians and surgeons are often considered in admitting such as have no dein% upon the charity. I have been led to enlarge more upon this subject than I had at first intended, but I trust you will ase the purport of my remark*, end deem them worthy of attention and insertion la your widely circulated naper.—Asova SCOTLAND. EDINBURGH, Faa. 13. Two new acts of legislation connected with Scot land are said to be in preparation. The first to compel Sunday trains on railways—to be brought forward by Mr. Hume; the second to obviate the grievance com plained of by the Free Church, in regard to the pro prietors who have refusal sites for places of wors h ip. Mr. Hume having already moved for returns regard ing Sunday travelling, it is likely that the surmise on that subject is correct; bat nothing is yet known to have been done by Mr. Bouverie, M.P. for Kilmar nock, who is represented as having undertaken the settlement of the site question. His intention is un derstood to be the movement of a select committee to take evidence—a measure to which it is mid govern ment are likely to accede. • At Glasgow great interest has been excited as to the beat locality for a common railway terminus ; and as a teat for ascertaining the site that would give most satisfaction, a declaration was lodged for signature at the Exchange and other places. It was subscribed by 443 persons, of whom 5 were for the West of Scot -24 for the Caledonian, 346 for the Trongate Terminus, and 68 for the College ditto. SUNDAY Ts/atm.—At the Edinburgh polies hoard on Maeda, last, notice was Aiwa d the following motion : That the etoppage ef like trains on the Edinburgh and Glaegow r ail way tads te kidee and obstruct the police diners iu the disharge of their duty, and gives a new and amsgerou• addsteg• to mind& in their attempts to =That a nmeaorial by the board in favour of re the Sunday trains be hamediately forwarded to the Mitten of the railway, and that petitions be prepared to send to parliament for the same porpose if found necessary. Ran wav CASIL—An inquiry took place on Monday last, at the sessions room, Blackburn, under the providons of the general act of parliameot passed in the session of 1843, lbe consolidating the provisions relative to railway companies. H. Petro, Esq of Dunkenhalgh was the complainant in the case, and the East Lancashire Railway Company the de fendants. The facts appeared to he that, in the conetruction of the line of railway between Blackburn and Accrington, the company having, for some reason, dispensed with a heavy embankment in the valley, near the Lower Aspen farm, in Oswaldtwiele, shown in the original plan, and proposin' gto constrain a viaduct instead, and having an ex caved= of the depth of eight yards through • Lree portion of Mr. Petre's estate, in Rishtou, the earl from which will not now be required for the constrnetien of the line, they had given Mr. Petra nodes of their intenders ' to take an additional quantity of land on the north side of the intended railway, for about three quarters of in length, for the purpose of laying the excavated earth epos, or hew ing, as it is technically celled, a ...poll beak.' To this Mr. Petro objected, as being injurious to the estate miesenft, cad in pursuance of one oldie dames of the Genital may Act, gave the company settee that he did so and that , there were other lands contignees to the land pro posed to be taken, more suitable for the pupae , and which would be less injurious to the occupation of the adjoining land. The company not having adopted the suggestion of Mr. Petrie the latter, in pursuance of another clause in the act, now applied to the magistrates, who are thereby invested with power to investigate the matter, and to determine whe ther the lands proposed to be taken by the comps ought to be so taken, or whether the other proposed by the landowner shall he used for the intended purpoes. Mr. Thomas Howson, steward to Mr. Petro, Mr. J. J. Myres, of Preston, land surveyor, Mr. Tbornher, of Broughton, land surveyor, Mr. William Smith, of Pleasington, end Mr. Moses Cocker, of Liveiey, were examined on behalf of the complainant, and all ex premed • decided opinion that the making of the spoil bank, as proposed by the company, would be a serious detriment, and greatly inconvenience the occupation of the adjac ent land, inasmuch as the railway severs the farm buildings from a groat portion of the land occupied therewith, and as the bank would be very precipitous, and several yards higher than the present surface, it would prevent the occupier of the farm from seeing the land from his house, as he can now do, and thereby increase the risk of his cattle getting wrong, and occasion him much additional trouble in looking after them. The drainage, they also considered, would be interrupted, and it was their opinion that less rent would be realised if the spoil bank were made than if it were not. They also stated that the other lands proposed by Mr. Petro were sufficient to receive the soil, and conveniently situated. It was contended. on the part of the company, that sufficient notice of the proposal to substitute these lands had not been given; that if these lands were so used, the works must be retarded 6 months at team, because the same number of hands could not be employed at once, as if the spoil bank were made as the company proposed ; and it was also asserted that one of the places of substitution pointed out—vis., the Aspen Valley, was mot at all suitable for the purpose in an engineering point of view, fur that the company had been obliged to abandon their original design of forming an embankment acmes that valley, because it had been found on actual trial that it could not be made with safety, nor without en endangering the banks of the canal which skirts the valley • and it was said the same objection exists in the pl acing the surplus soil in the valley. Considerable dis til/um ensued, and there was much examination, crow examination, and re-examination on this point, and Mr. Seger, for the company, proposed to call some engineering evidence, but as it appeared probable that the lands of an other owner, Mr. Omani, in that valley, might be affected, and he had not been summoned, it was eventually deter mined to adjourn the ease for a fortnight, and that Mr. Ormerod should be summoned in the meanwhile. PROVINCIAL. CASES or Gams SUPERSTITION are from time to time reported in the country papers, and a few of these may add smother to the many proofs already collected to show the necessity !or some system of national education. The Bury Herald affords a specimen. The last number of that paper says: " On Saturday last, Mrs. Leggett appeared et Yar mouth pnliodecourt tO crave sureties of the peace against her slater, Mrs. Cole, both inhabitants of Gorlestone, and the defendant, the wife of the well-known pilot of that name. It appears that the two sisters have lately . " fallen out " re specting some property left them by thew father. On Fri day, lire. Cole went to the house of Mrs. Leggett, and broke opus her door by throwing a stone at it. She then cos manced a volley of abuse directed *mind her sister, sad threatened " to make her wallow in her blood unless eke went to Norwich, and had the witches taken off her (Mrs. Cole's) husband. She wauld make leer drink her own blood unless she unbewitcked her biol. Ind." The mayor asked Mrs. Cole what she meant, when she made, with all possible earnestame, the following statement My sister gotmy father to make a wrong and hare all his property to her and she low sets all the lawyers at defiance. My husband has been lately in a very low way 1 hare had Dr. Impey to him , t he p ier -master's he., and old Dr. Smith, but they know nothing about his cemplsiiit—he is never at rest night or day, and me belief is he is bewitched by Mrs. Leggett.

The magi- THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 16, 1847. wiLTsmity r T zzzzzz or or LAeovisl7.:LA correspondent of the Hartysehare Advertiser states that the guardian of a parish not many miles from Andover, a farmer, has, for some time past, had the rough and worst tailings of his wheat ground and made into bread in his own house, retailing out the same to bis poor men at 16d, the 8 lb. loaf. One of these sten dared to complain last week of the loaves he had doled out to Mot, weighing but 61b. 14 oz., or I lb. 2 oz. lees than they ought, for which he wee discharged, and now he and his die- Messed family have no alternative left but stervatioa or go Into the union. LOCAL PARLIAMINTART Brllnilf.—ln compliance with an order of the House of Commons, the clerk of the Solis bury Parochial Board has prepared a return of the number of families and individuals who have become chargeable to the parishes of this city by the operation of the New Poor law - Removal Act. The additional burden thus east upon the rate-payers amounts to 96 families, comprising 148 ; and evon this large number would have been much iscremed had not two or three of the unions near Salisbury, acted in a liberal spirit, by recognising some of their own poor reddest in the city. The petition of the parochial board against this Act has A been intrusted to Mr. Chaplin. HMPSHIRE LAMBING BRAWN ON THE DOWNS OP HAMPSHIRE AND WILTIRINB.—This is an anxious season fur the large graziers and sheep-breeder on the bleak Downs in them 1 two eounties, now being about the middle of the season. Shepherds are employed night and day, having temporary ' hats or dwellings, which are removed as needed on wheels. The floats of sums are from one to three thousand ewes in lamb, while moderate breeders have from three to five hundred. Some have been tolerably fortunate, while others have lost many, both ewes and lambs. A gentleman of Mitcheldever, near the Andover-road station, has already last from fifty to sixty ewes, and nearly 150 lambs. Mr. Bailey, Mitcheldever, has lost already thirty ewes, and be tween fifty and sixty lambs, out of a flock of 700. Mr. Pain, Westover, near Stockbridge, has lost an unusual number. Mr. John Ly wood, Upper Clatford, near Andover, from twenty-five to thirty ewes, and many lamb,,. Mr. Los combs, of the same parish, also very unlucky. The only gentleman we (Hasspehire Advertiser) heard of u having been fortunate is Mr. John Holloway, of Andover, who, from a flock of 350 ewes, has not as yet lost one ewe, though more than half have been already lambed—one with three, twenty-seven with two, and others one lamb each. DRURY-LAfelt.—Mr.Wallace's new opera, “ Ma tilda of Hungary," was not performed last evening. Its announcement produced an overflowing house, and nothing seemed to indicate any symptom of disappointment. Bevan o'clock arrived—the orchestra mumbled—and the audience sat in expectation of the rising of the curtain. The curtain, however, did not rise; and low sounds of impatience, whieh Ragan to be heard, continued to go on crescendo till nearly half-past seven, when they had swelled into a grand chorus of anger from all parts of the house. At length Mr. Bunn appeared, leading by the hand the composer of toe piece. Something like silence having been obtained, Mr. Bunn addressed the house, and expressing his distress at the un pleasant position in which he was placed, stated that every thing was ready for the commencement of the opera, when, at seven minutes to seven, he received a note from Miss Romer, informing him that sudden indisposition had pre vented her from coming to the theatre. He went on, in the midst of great noise, and many interruption', to say, that after lb. pains and expense which had been bestowed in bringing forward so great a work, he felt it would be a great injustice to his gifted friend the composer to perform it in so lame and imperfect a way, but he, as well as Mr. Wallace, threw themselves upon the pleasure of the botuie, and would immediately proceed with it if with was their desire, intimating at the same time that such persons as chose should have their money returned. Somebody then called for the overture ; Mr. Bunn said that the request would be com plied with ; Mr. Wallace descended to the orchestra, and the overture was played, hut in the midst of a noise which made it inaudible. Meanwhile, it appeared that people had been demanding back their money, and been disappointed ; for the row became louder than ever, mixed with calls for " money," and " Mr. Parsons." Mr. Harley then all ; but before he could make himself heard, Er re :r i es addressed by a gentleman from the pit, who asked him how it happened that, Miss Romer's note having been received seven minutes before seven, the audience were kept waiting for half an hour without any explanation. Mr. Harley's reply was not very distinctly heard, but we gathered from it that Miss Romer had been rehearsing in the theatre, between four and five o'clock, and that her totally unexpected absence had taken them by surprise. He then said that " The Bondman" should be substituted, with Mies Moment as the prima donna. This opera began accordingly, and was proceeding, absolutely in dumb show, when, having had enough of noise and con. fusion, we left the theatre. It is proper to add that the orchestra appeared to be greatly increased in numerical strength for the performance of Mr. Wallace's opera. VNIVERSITY AND CLERICAL NEWS.

JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL. Pamosr.—Lord Brosaghans, Lard Campbell. the Mader d the Rolle, Sir Herbert leaner rust, end the Itlibt Hon. T. Pemberton Leigh. THI CALEDONIAN STEAM TOWING COMPANY AND OTHERS O. HUTTON AND OTHIIRS.—Thin was an appeal from the Court of Admiralty. The suit was brought in the court below, by the appellants, the owners of the steam vessel Robert Bruce, against the respondents, the owners of the Medors, for salvage; the judge (Dr. Lushington) awarded 2dol. salvage arid their costs, which the savors did not consider sufficient for the services rendered and the risk they had run. It appeared that on the 17th of Septem ber, 1845, the Medora was riding at anchor about mid channel between the West and Middle Cage buoys, when a heavy gale sprung up from the west-south-west, with a heavy tea, and while the gale was at its hnght, the Medora slipped both her anchors and began to drive ra pidly towu the Mouse sand. lismediateiy Captain Bar rowby, of the Robert Bruce, paronved her situation, he got his vessel under weigh, and proceeded to the assistance of the Madera, and while doiag as, See Orwell ( Ipswich steamer) on her way to Igad pocr,ear on n.d, ad the Medora, but after !ging round her, her voyage, without render ing her any mistime. Soon afterwards, the Robert Bruce a ed the Modem, and succeeded at last, with great elrEt h y, in taking the vessel in tow, and et nine o'clock the same night anchored her in safety in Sheerness. Dodson (the Queen's advocate), and Dr. Sayford, ap peared foe the appellants, and contended that the salvage allowed by the court below was not sufficient. The learned counsel contended that the court was not to look at the matter as mere payment for work and labour, but as a re ward for the promptitude of the parties in saving the vessel, crew, and cargo, which it appeared from the evidence would have been utterly lost but for the assistance rendered by the Robert Brace. Dr. Addams and Dr. Phillimore, on the other hand, con tended, that although the facts as stated by the appellants, • ere in the main correct, yet some of them were overstated, and that with reference to the value of the vessel, and the services rendered, a sufficient sum had been awarded. Lord Brougham &aid that, under the circumstances of the ewe, the facto being agreed upon, the rule upon which the anus ought to set tot viz , the value of the mercies rendered, their lordships won reverts the judgment below, and award 5001. instead of 2501., with WAIL HOUSE OF LORDS. raiment : The Lord Cluneetior, teed Semen and Lord WaiisgalßL WILSON v. WILSON. ARTICLES OP SIPARSTION.— SPECIFIC PERPOILIIRNCIL INJUNCTION. Mr. Bethell resumed his argument, from Thursday last, for the respon dents in this case,—Mrs. Wilson and the trustees named in the articles of separation, of which the Vice-Chancellor decayed performance by Mr. Wilson. The learned counsel condoned to read the correspondence that passed between Mr. Wilson and his wife's solicitors before the drawing up of the articles, and submitted that Mr. Wilson's letters showed that instead of his being terrified and intimidated by the imputation of incompetency, and of being thereby surprised into an assent to the articles—which wee the main ground of the prayer of his at for delivering up those articles—it was he who attempted, by his insulting and un• manly language and charges, to intimidate and coerce his wife into a compliance with his terms. He then applied himself to the law as applicable to deeds of generation. observing that these articles were actual covenants executed, and only one or two of them remained exeeutory. The courts always gave effect to such deeds, not as deeds of separation between hus band and wife merely, but as contracts between the husband and third parties, whose covenant to indemnify the husband against the wife's debts was part of the consideration to him, and was always an ingredient in ell such valid deeds, as it was in the deed er articles in this case, although it happened, by mistake, that the indemnity here was against the husband's debts, " John" being written for " Mary," by an error of the clerk. With respect to the injunction restrain ing Mr. Wilson from proceeding in the suit in the spiritual court to obtain a sentence of restitution of frier conjugal rights, that injunction was not meant to interfere with the jurisdic tion of the spiritual court, but to enforce submission to the orders of the Court of Chancery in this cause until it was wrought to a termination. —At 4 o'clock Mr. Bethel' finished, and the further bearing was adjourned to Tuesday (this day). COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. Owing to the absence of witnesses, the eleven causes in the paper for yesterday morning were disposed of before eleven o'clock, by submissions to a verdict in two of them, and by withdrawal of the records in the others. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Cares.—Before sr. lualkeCottmen and a London Common July. Cane. Corr.—Hawn c. Mooar.—This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover compensation in dameges from the defendant for criminal conversation. The de fendant pleaded not guilty. The damages were laid at 5001. Mr. Si:trent Byles (with whom was Mr. Bramwell) said the plaintiff in this case was the father of a large family, and had been brought up to the trade of a butcher, but at the period when the cause of the present action arose carried on busi• fleas as a publican in Newport-market. During his appren ticeship be became acquainted with Miss Hopper, a relative of his master's wife, to whom his was married in 1831. The defendant, Mr. Moore, is a plat seller, somewhat advanced in life. Mrs. Hawke is a p.m of considerable personal attractions. The first @ambigua which the plaintiff had that his wifessffectMns were allemated was in consequence of her Mtfor dress. and the .steded of the youngest child. She a: l en Ile =dm done eitildren ; but only three were VW,* The enalate id dna wife led to high words sod re- Wine je Ttaneli• sal am even at the latter end of , 1815: she is her hand's house. Menthe passed away before Bey tidings could be obtained as to where she had gate, or with whom is was living. At length Mrs. Hawks and the defendant were discovered residing at Islington, iambi the name of Moore. The learned serjeant felt satisfied that the jury would say, that even the sum of 5001., at which the damages were laid, were far too small to recompense the husband for his loss. So deeply had it preyed upon his mind, that it caused him to keep his bed for five months, and from being strong and robust, he was now a withered man ; his business had gone, and he was ruined, having kis children to 'rapport. He should defy his learned friend to contradict these facts, and he, therefore, called upon the jury to give ample and sufficient damages. —Evidence was then given as to the marriage, and the apparent happy terms on which the plaintiff lived with his wife, until the defendant came to the house, after which plaintiff used to drink and quarrel with bit wife. Mrs. llawkes and defendant had gone to the theatre together. Joseph Bata Gardner, of Somers-place, near Oxford, deposed that upon being informed that the plaintiff had been robbed of his wife, he set about to find out who had com mitted the robbery—(a laugh)—and on the night of the 9th of December, 1846, he, in company with the plaintiff, went to No. 35, Charlotte-terrace, Islington, and there 1 , 4 W Mrs. Hawkes, who first answered to the name of Moore. — Mrs. Willes, the landlady of the house, proved the identity of the parties. Mr. Cockburn (with whom was Mr. Pigot) said that, after the evidence which had just been given, be could not for one instant contend that the plaintiff must not have a verdict. The defendant did notdemy the fact since she had left her husband's roof, of their living together but as a man he felt bound to defend end protect her character up to the period he took her under his protection. Entitled as the plaintiff would be to • verdict, the question for them would be to say the amount. If the husband bad lost the affection of his wife, it was through his own misconduct. He would not only prove that he was an habitual drunkard, that he was constantly threatening and using the most revolting language to his wife, that it was by his own solicitation that his wife used to go with Mr. Moore to the theatre, and that after he bad known they were living together he used to borrow money of the defendant, and it was when he refused to lend any more, that the action was brought. A worse case could scarcely be imagined, and although bound to give the plaintiff a verdict, they would give It him with the smallest possible damages. Several witnesses deposed to the plaintiff being con stantly drunk, and, when he need to charge his wife with being en improper character, he was asked, why not speak to the defendant ? that, on one occasion the defendant was brought to him, when the plaintiff said, "Moore, it. is all nonsense, go and make a glass of gin and water;" that after his wife had left the bousehe expressed his joy at her leaving him, as he had a Scotch girl with 3001. a year, that would come and live with him. The witnesses supported the various statements made by the learned counsel. Mr. Ser. jeant Byles replied in strong terms, denying the statements which bad been made, which had evidently been prepared for the present occasion. Mr. Justice Coltman summed up, when the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 1001. POLICE V _ ESTERIMT. BOW-STREET.—MATRIMONIAL QoARBELP. John Locfcyer was charged with indicting on his wife a wound in the aide of her bead, whereby her life was endangered.— Policeman F 85, about half-past three o'clock in the morn ing, heard a cry of " murder ' from a home in Rose-street, Long-acre, where he found the prisoner and his wife in their own room, the woman having a severe cut on the side of the head, and being exhausted by lost of blood. She said that the prisoner gave her the wound with the poker. She was taken immediately to the Charing-cress Hospital, where she then lay. Mr. John Steghorn, houseaur goon at the Charing-crosa Hospital, described the nature el the wound. He considered that she was in danger, and could not give any positive opinion on her case at present. The prisoner said that his wife quarrelled with him, and struck him several times, and he threw his shoe at her. He had not had the poker in his hand at all. Kr. Hall re manded the prisoner for a week, and desired the surgeon, in cue he should find that death was approaching, and that the woman was aware of her early dissolution, to send for him, and he would take her evidence in articulo mortis. CLERK ENWELL.—Mcitusrious Asast:tra.—Edioord and Ellen Burke were charged with the following mur derous assaults. On Saturday night last, a numerous body of Irish labourers entered the Castle Tavern, Holloway-road, whas their conduct was so riotous and disorderly, that the landlord, Mr. Francis, refused to serve them, and miveralleß M eassequence, but the prisoners remained and insisted on being served. Finding that they would not leave, Mr. Frauds turned off the gas, when Edward Burke stooped his heed, raised at him, and butted him in the face, and broke his nest. He then knocked him down, and kicked him wend times, and Mr. Francis's son coming to his assistance received such severe injuries from the prisoner, as to compel Nf to keep hie bed , and be placed under surgi cal treatment, awl he was now unable to attend to give his evidence. The were at length ejected, and the door shut, but they errt in, attacked Mr. Francis again, fractured one of his Sagan, hit, and otherwise,injured him. Several pediesmen Nevis( beard cries of murder, hastened to the Let, whoa it required no less than ten of them to remove to station-house, and on the way there Ed. werral a re s eased Constable 291 N, and knocked him down, sad upon his getting up gave him a tremendous kick in the lower of the abdomen.

WORSHIP-STREET.—CEIVELTY TO A. CHlLD.—Edwin Jareia, &porter at the Eastern Counties Railway, was charged with having cruelly beaten and otherwise maltreated his filideMashil son Henry . Thorpe, 10 years of age.—Mrs. PM* Progley, a married woman, stated that she resided mei door to the prisoner's in Underwood-street, Mile-end, and that while seated with her husband on the preceding alleenem about four o'clock, in their hack parlour, they westaised by a heavy fall in the adjoining workshop, end sit mining the room found there the little boy Thorpe who had jest dropped down through the skylight. The den prated a most ghastly spectacle, his face and dial being covered with blood, which streamed him two dreadful rubes in the bead, and he was trembling so violently that he could scarcely stand. Oa recovering from his agitation, he told them that the in. juries had been inflicted by his father, liras mina he had just -- along the roof of the holds ; .and milady -at escaped plored their protection. While communicating to theia the partictilars of the ill-usage he had sustained, the Omar came to the door, and demanded his restoration, but wino refused to comply with the request, and sent for the by whom the child was taken to a surgeon's, and coaveyed to the workhouse. The injured boy, who sprang with his head enveloped in bandages, his eye dessillally blackened, and bearing other visible marks of in treellinti, was then called, and stated that about Fin years siass, a sepa ration took place between the priaoner and his mother, whom be had never seen since, and his father shortly after wards was married to another woman, from which time be had been subjected to almost inemeant ill wage. On Friday last, having been severely beaten by his step-mother, he sought refuge in as adjoining coffeeeahop, where he was allowed to remain that night, but was taken back again the next day, when he was again cruelly beaten, a nd compelled to sleep upon the bare Weeds, without any bed or covering.. On getting up the nest worning, his father pinioned his erns behind bias, and, binding him round with a strong rope, fastened him up to the framework of his bedstead, where he remained without food until three o'clock in the afternoon, when he was re leased by the prisoner, whotook him down stairs, and exclaim ing " It was your tun yesterday, and now it is mine," beat him in a most unmerciful manner with the butt-end of • bruninounted whip, over the body and heed, until the blood streamed down his face, when he was again tied up as before by his father, who locked the door and left him. With great difficulty he succeeded in unfastening the knot of the cord with his teeth, and making tile way through the winJow on to the roof of the adjoining house. thereby effected his escape. At the close of his evidence the magistrate directed the person of the child to be uncovered.wben his beck pre sented • truly shocking appearance, being a complete mass of livid bruises. Berjeant King produced the rope and whip with which the boy had been bound and beaten, and also a medical certificate, stating that besides several severe contu sions upon the back, kegs, and arms, he had also received two serious wounds in the Imd, one of which was nearly four inches in extent Oe taking the prisoner into custody, he admitted having flogged the boy with the whip produced, and obeerved, as they were proceeding to the workhouse , that it was, perhaps, a good job after all, as it might be the means of his getting rid of him altogether. When called upon for his defence, the prisoner said that ho had acted under excessive provocation, occasioned by the general misconduct of the boy, who was in the constant habit of slandering his character, and doing all he could to injure him. Mr Broughton said he never remembered a case in when so alight • degree of extenuation had been offered for such savage and brutal treatment by • father of his own child, and he meth feared the only rational motive that could be waived for such conduct was the inference to be drawn hem the observation the primmer had dropped that he wished to get rid of him altogether. Ile should leave it for • jury to decide upon the ease, but inserad of sending the prisoner for trial for a simple assault, he should commit him upon the charge of telonioualy cutting and wounding his son, and also direct a warrant to be issued for the apprehension , of his wife as an accessary to the offence. MONEY MARKET. _ MON DAT Bring°, The week has commenced rather favourably for funded values, which showed improved mkt ascending prices at the outset of the market, although only partially main tained to the close of business. The advance in Mark-lane corn-market had probably some effect in discouraging the forward movement. Console were quoted 901 to 1 for money, and 901 to 1 for time at the opening, and were sub sequently done at 91 both for money and account, but they receded, and finally left off 901 to 1 for money, and 901 to 1 for account. The French funds came better from Paris, which with the report confidently circulated that the Irish railway loan scheme would to mg*. tired by a majority of seventy in the house, gave a certain support to the market, although it i + not difficult to perceive that it still remains quite susceptible to any cause of the least unfavourable tendency. Reduced Threes were 911 to 1. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 921 to 3. Ex chequer bells, 6s. to 9s. premium. India Bonds, Bs. to 13s. premium. The impression prevails that a Treasury notice may shortly be expected, on calling them in for payment or renewal, to raise the rate of interest on Exchequer bills to 2d. per day. Business continues extremely fiat in foreign stocks. Mexican are quoted 211 to 21, but with few transactions in them. Brazilian Old Bowie, 85 to 7.

The market was more firm yesterday, both for shares and scrip, without any material improvement in prices; although, at the close of business, it did not wear altogether so good an appearance. Some purchases of Bir mingham and Oxfords, by a respectable firm, excited atten tion, and raised prices some is. or Be. per share, 91. per scrip share being the rate of purchase. It did not appear that these purchases, as at first supposed, could be taken as any indication of the settlement of the question as to the future proprietorship of this line, for which the Great Western and the North Western are contending parties: the former insisting upon a contract formally concluded for the line at 10 premium per scrip share ; the latter upon a subsequent agreement for the purchase at the higher rate of 15 per share. It is urged that the majority of the real shareholders were purposely excluded from voting on the agreement with the Great Western, by the registration of the transfers of the shares they had purchased being improperly delayed. The dispute threatens to be a ease for the lawyers. RAILWAY SHARE LlSTS.—Lownolt, FRB. 15. 444•644.301•13050 • Dna la lowa dm/mien SOM. MUM 0.e544.. 4 ...b.g... Woo *Dm of Or it1:11... 44134er Wm.
