The production of Mozart's comic opera, Die Eetfthruny aus deos Serail, in an Italian dress under the title of 11 Seraglio, is a step for which the lessee of Her Majesty's Theatre deserves the thanks of the public and the revival of an almost forgotten work of the most illus trious of dramatic musicians is an event of much interest to every lover of the art. The whole performance was excellent, Mena was Con st►nse ; Sink*, Biondina ; Guns, Belmont° ; Stagno, drillo; and Rokitanaky, Osmin. The principal pieces were received with MAlM—some of them with enthusiastic —applause ; and if the audience did not show all the hilarity excited by the Barbiere or Fm Daardo, they evidently enjoyed a musical treat of a delightful kind. rama. LYCEUM. Mr. Fechter cloaedliiiseaaon on Saturday night with a performance of Hamlet, by desire of the Prince and Princess of Wales, who were present. After the perform ance a valuable diamond ring, subscribed for by Mr. Fechter's company, was presented to him as a tokea of esteem. The theatre will reopen in September, when Ms, and Mn.

A field day and sham fight, in which the volun teers of the Kent battalions of rifles and artillery, and the Royal Horse Artillery, Royal Marines, and other regiments of the garrison were engaged, took place on Saturday before Viscount Sydney, lord-lieutenant of the county, in the presence of his Royal Highness Prince Arthur, a moat distinguished company, and many thousand spectators, on Woolwich, or rather that part which is designated'', Plum- Mead-oommon. THE HAVELOCK RIFLE VoLiner/MM. —Last Satur day evening the 48th Middleeex,Havelock, Rifle Vohmteer corps was inspected by Colonel Wright, the deputy in. neater general of volunteers, in Burton-court, Chelsea. The corps mustered in good numbers of eight companies, and the inspecting officer in addressing the corps compli mented Colonel George Cruikshank and the regiment generally on keeping up its numbers and its soldierlike appearance, as also upon the manner in which the several mancnuvres were performed. This corps has a company of cadets about 50 strong, and Colonel Wright also ex p emvd himself mush pleased with their appearance and discipline. Altogether the inspection passed off in the most satiifestory manner. The muster roll of this corps is 560 : 398 were on the ground ; the remainder on leave. FOUR MORE PERSONS DROWNED WHILE BATHING. —On Saturday afternoon, Mr. Blandy, the coroner for Reading, held an inquiry at the public office in that town, into the circumstances attending the death of Mr. James Guest, • young man in the employ of Messrs. Heelas and Co., drapers, who met with his death while bathing in the River Thames, on the previous evening. From the evi dence adduced it seemed that the deceased, accompanied hy two of his fellow assistants, named Chapman and Berwick, started from Messrs. Heelas's about 9 o'clock, to bathe, and the public bathing-house being closed for the night, they walked on to the river: Neither of them was • good swimmer, and Chapman cautioned deceased that the bed of the river near where they entered the water WAS dangerous. After the lapse of a few minutes deceased got out of his depth, and sank into a hole be neath the spring board from which experienced bathers jump for diving, and his companions seeing the danger, called to persons on the bank, and offered them money if they would assist in endeavouring to rescue the deceased, but they declined to render sid, and all that was seen of the poor fellow were the ends of his fingers above water. Dregs were brought, and the body was recovered in about ten minutes. Efforts were made to restore animation, and Mr. Vines, • surgeon, was in prompt attendance, but all endeavours to reencitate him were fruitless. The jury found &verdict of "Accidentally drowned." The deceased was most respectably connected, and his relatives reside at Exeter. At the same time and place, an inquiry was opened on the body of David Ezell, • young man, in the employ of Wheeler Brothers, brick makers, Coley. Ezell went to the Rennet and Avon Canal, near the Reading Iron Works, on the previous evening, with several fellow-workmen to bathe. He could swim but little, and was shown the extent of the river to which he must coatne himself ; however, while his companions were swimming, ho got out of his depth, and sank in the middle of the stream, the water being 16 or 17 feet deep. Two of the best swimmers attempted to rescue him with out success, and • gentleman named Caudwell gallantly jumped into the river and dived after the body, which laid among the weeds, and was not recovered until Saturday morning. A verdict of " Accidental death" was returned. At Abingdon, Mr. Bartlett, coroner, has just held an in quest op • young man named Freer, who was drowned while bathing a few evenings since in the Iffley [Asher Pool, through getting out of his depth. The deceased was son of the Rev. John Freer, of Minster Lovell, Oxon, and assistant to Messrs. Beaumont, of Oxford. Verdict, " Accidental death." A young man employed at the Flemish Farm, Windsor, was drowned a few days ago while bathing in the Swan Pond, Windsor Great Park. THE MURDER NEAR GATZSIIIAD.--On Friday Cuthbert Roddam Carr, the young man in custody c harged , upm his own confession, with having murd ere d S an k Melvin, a little girl aged seven years of age, at Carr's Hill, near Gateshead, on the 13th of April bet, was brought before the borough magistrates. The deceased, it will be remembered, was found dead on • road leading from the Filling to Sheriff-hill, whither herparents hedge:le the same day. At that time the father and mother were suspected of having murdered their child, and were taken into custody, but after en examination before the magistrates, were re leased. Mr. Elliott, the chief constable, having briefly stated the case, informed the bench that on Wednesday night the prisoner came to the police-station, and told the officer in charge that he wanted to make • statement ie reference to the Corea Hill murder. He (the chief constable) was sent for, and ongoing to the station cautioned the prisoner as to what he was about to say, and then wrote down the account of the tragedy. According to this statement (which was then read), the prisoner at about half-past six o'clock in the evening saw the little girl going up the road which her father and mother had just passed up. He went after her, took hold of her hand, and then carried her to an adjoining stable, where he choked her with his hands. He then got a clothes-line and tied it tightly round her neck, having first split the cord into two pieces. With the other piece he tied the girl's hands, though she was quite dead at the time. He next laid himself upon her, having previously mutilated her ; and after concealing the body under the straw watched for an opportunity to re move it. For about two hours he watched people passing, and at length went back to the stable, took her in his arms, and in sight of several persons laid the corpse unperceived upon the road, where it was afterwards found. The chief constable applied that the ease might be remanded in order to bring forward various witnesses, whose statements would in some degree corroborate that of the prisoner. The application was granted. Carr is • young man, tall, and thinly_made, and evidently of we a k i nte ll ect. THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY. —On Saturday afternoon Mr. Myles Fenton, the general manager, and Mr. Burnett, the resident engineer, with other officials of the Metropolitan Railway, made • formal inspection of the broad gauge section cf the line between the Aldemate street station and Moorgate-street, where • commodi ous and well-lighted terminus has been erected for the accom modation of the Great Western, Midland, and Great Northern trains. The new station was to be opened yes terday for public traffic, and passengers from the West mad, Hammersmith, sad KanaWgton, instead of alighting at Alderogste-street, will be carried direct into the City upon the broad gauge. The signals, points, and other arrangements are in excellent working order. CRYSTAL PALACE. —FIVE SHILLING DAY.

THE NEWMARKET JULY MEETING. SEVERE TRUNDER STORMS.-FATAL ACCI DENTS. Since noon on Saturday a series of thunder storms, attended with deluging rain, have passed over the metro polis. The forenoon of Saturday was very sultry, and towards noontide dense clouds gathered in the west and north, evidently highly charged with electricity. Shortly before t & wolm. the distant thunder wash esrd, and soon after the lightning became very vivid. Except in the western and northern suburbs, however, at that time but little rain fell—in the City but a few drops, but they were very heavy ones. At three o'clock the sun broke forth cheerfully, and it appeared as though the storm clouds had passed over the metroplis in a north-easterly , direction. Before five o'clock huge mares of black cloud came up from the south-west, and the storm recommenced with increased violence, attended by heavy rain, which shortly flooded the streets and pavements. For upwards of two hours the rumbling of the thunder was heard, the inter mittent lightning being occasionally of a forked character, the sheet lightning being continuous for some time. Gradually the air cooled, and throughout the night and yesterday morning the rain continued to descend heavily. As the day wore on the sun shone between the showers which fell at intervals, the evening proving exceedingly fine. The storm which visited the metropolis and its neigh bourhood ou Saturday was productive of s melancholy re sult in the neighbourhood of Wormwood Scrubs. We learn from the Observer that in this immediate locality there is a subscription shooting ground, which is supported by gen tlemen of position in society, and who are fond of the sport of pigeon shooting. About noon on Saturday Mr. Lancaster, the gunmier of Bond-street, and some persons in his employment, were on the grounds in ques tion, together with some pigeon fanciers and gentlemen who were about to shoot a match. In oonsequenoe of a violent shower of rain which fell, the parties had to take shelter in the tents on the ground. When the rain had ceased, which it did about two o'clock, the parties came forth to commence proceedings for the shooting match. The lowering clouds, however. indicated that the storm had not wholly passed away. The traps were set, and the match was about to begin, when a " thunderbolt " fell amongst the party and exploded, by which seven or eight persons were at once struck to the ground. Those who were uninjured ran to the spot to give what assistance they could to the persons who were thus struck down, when the found that • young man, named Offer, age d 17, the son of a pigeon dealer in King-street, Hammersmith, was dead, and that his dog, who was at his feet, was also killed. The brother of Offer was also found to be much affected by the shook, but restoratives having been administered to him, he re covered. The other persona who were thrown upon the ground were fortunately only stunned, and were able to leave shortly afterwards. The body of Offer was conveyed to an inn opposite the ground. The top of the hat which Offer wore when he was struck was much torn, and one side of it was cut clean through ; the hair on his bead on that side where the hat was cut through by the lightning was burnt off, and the face had a swollen and blackened appearance.. REPRESENTATION OP WORCESTER CITY.—It being understood that Mr. Padmore, one of the sitting members for Worcester, is about to resign his seat, addresses have been put forward by two liberal candidates, viz : Mr. F. Lyoett, one of the newly-elected sheriffs of the City of London (who is a Worcester man), and Mr. T. R. Hill, alderman of Worcester. Mr. Lycett, in his addrow, says:— " lam in favour of a reduction of the franchise, the vote by ballot, and the extinction of some of the smaller bo rough' and the transfer of the privilege to large and im portant towns which are now unrepresented. lam also in favour of the abolition of church-rates, and I should advo cate larger grants being made for the general education of the people. Mr. Hill grounds his claims on his known attachment to liberal principles. Mr. Levick, the censer vate candidate at the last election has also been in Wor cester, and is certain to offer himself again. „ . - Ax " ADULLAMITZII" EXPLANATION.—Mr. T. P. Crosland, M.P. for Huddersfield, issued on Saturday an address to the electors and non-electors of the borough, in which be explains his principal votes since ho entered parliament, and particularly his votes on the Reform Bill. In reference to the latter Mr. Crosland states that he voted for Lord Grosvenor's amendment that the Franchise Bill without the Seats Bill was not satisfactory, because he had stated in his address that theprogran of reform was " rather retarded than otherwise by the discussion of isolated measures," and in his speeches during the contest, and in the remarks he made when introducing a deputa tion on the claims of Huddersfield to • second member to Earl Russell be had held that no measure would be satisfactory which did not go for a redistribution of seats as well as an extension of the franchise. Mr. Crosland also says—" When the ministry conceded the principle contended for in the amendment I gave the government an earnest and hearty support, and on every question upon which I was not per sonally pledged to an opposite course I voted with govern ment." In reference to his last vote for Lord Dunkellin's amendment the hon. member states that he supported the principle of a rating franchise in accordance with his announcement in his address—" I would support • measure based on a 61. rating for boroughs and • 10/. rating for counties "—considering a ratal test safer than a rental ; but he did not support Mr. Waltole's amendment, as that not only the rating principle, but fixed the amount at a figure incom patible with kis views. He would have supported an amendment for a 101. rating in counties, and would have voted for a 61. rating in boroughs if government bad assented to the rating principle. He regrets the govern. ment should have staked its existence on a mere matter of detail, and with reference to the future says, as he said in his address, " I would afford a cordial and tilling sup port to Lord Derby or any other minister introducing such measures and so conducting the government of the country as would, in my judgment, promote its prosperity and maintain its honour and dignity. Tan RZTORM Lucius. —A crowded meeting of the council of the above league took place on Friday even ing last, at their rooms in Adelphi-terrace ; Mr. Beaks occupied the chair. A large amount of correspondence was read, including letters from Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright. A great number of meetings were reported from various parts of the country, as being held by and under the auspice* of the league. The urgent necessity of calling together the various reform associations to confer upon the present crisis was again discussed and a sub-committee was appointed to complete the arrangements. The council theq entered at some length into the question of the open-air meeting evening at eight o'clock. Thecommittee:of the branches superintending those meetings explained to the council that they bad reconsidered the question, and bad decided that Whltehall-gardens was an inconvenient and unsuitable loca lity for the purpose, and they had therefore resolved to hold the meeting in Trafalgar-square, as on Wednesday evening last. With, this alteration the council entirely concurred. The president, at the request of the council, entered into an explanation of the legal bearings of the case, and stated that the police were not entitled to interfere with meetings properly and orderly conducted in suitable localities, and which were not held in contravention of any act of parlia ment, and that he considered meet' in Trafalgar s quare, for the purpose of the people present discussing their claims to an extension of the franchise, and expressing their opinion on the subject of the late Reform Bill, without founding thereon any petition or address to parliament or the crown, was a meeting which could not be interfered with without illegally encroaching on the constitutional rights and liberties of the people ; and he further urged that every care should be taken toprevent everything of • riotous or tumultuous character. The committee were then instructed to continue their labours incarrying out the proposed demonstration. The council resolved to attend early, so as to make every arrangement to prevent oixdruc tions or any disorderly conduct on the part of those as sembled. Deputations were then appointed to attend various other meetings, and the council then adjourned. OUT-DOOR PUBLIC MRETII4OB.—A crowded meet ing was held on Saturday evening at the Middlesex Arms, Clerkenwell, for the purpose of arraapthe details of the great Reform Demonstration pro to be held at Whitehall-gardens to-day. The c 'r was taken by Mr. Osborne. Mr. Davis brought up • report adopted at • meeting of the Reform League on the pre vious evening, to the effect that Whitehall-gardens, be ing a military point to some extent, it was undesirable to hold the meeting there, and that it should be held in Trafalgar-square. Mr. Howell, secretary to the Reform League, said that Mr. Beale, the president of the League, was quite prepared to take the chair on the occasion, and, if prevented from pre siding, to try the question as to the right of the public to meet. It was afterwards agreed that the assemblage of people should be divided into three sections, • chairman to be appointed to each. Mr. George Potter detailed a con versation held with Sir Richard Mayne, who said that he , would most decidedly take measures to prevent the meeting. " FESS SUNDAY" DEMONSTRATION A? KEW.— Yesterday the National Sunday League and its friends and supporters held a demonstration at Kew Gardens in favour of the " Free Sunday," when there was a very large attendance of visitors beyond the usual Sunday avenge. After promenading the gardens during the afternoon, the committee of the league and friends, to the number of about 500, assembled together in the grounds of the Coach and Hones hotel, and took tea together, Mr. B. Langley presiding. At 7 o'clock a meeting was held on Kew n, by permission, very numerously attended by the public, at which Mr. Davis took the chair. Mr. R. Morrell, the secre tary of the league, addressed the meet i ng in explanation of the principles and objects of the lesgue,which were to obtain the opening of the British Museum, and institutions of a similar character, on the Sunday afternoon, the same as Kew Gardens and Hampton Court were now open to the Fttle. He alluded to the great moons attending the ormance of the bands in Regent's, Victoria, and ermea parks, which afforded innocent recreation to thousands of people every Sunday evening during the summer. He bad much pleasure in stating that her Majesty had acceded to an application to allow the play ing of a band in Hyde-park on the Sunday e and as soon as the necessary authorisation warn received from the Commissioner of Public Works a band would play in that park. Mr. Baxter Langley then delivered an addren on the ptfn 'pies of the league,and after a few remarks from Mr. Wynne the proceedings concluded. The whole pro oeediap of the day permed in the mad orderly maws& tato Intrittgertrt. METROPOLITAN COUNTY COURTS.

TO TEI EDITOR OP TEI EXPRESS. 8n t,—Six northerners tackled the south-country I representative, the Primate, to prevent biz carrying away their Northumberland Plate, and between them they managed to find out him weak point, for he was dead as a stone a quarter of a mile from home, and little Cameron, one of the steadie s t of light-weights, os,d nothing to debut sit still and let the young (lemma di Vergy canter in before him. It was not, however, for Kiss Haworth to champion the north, as I supposed she would this day week, when Rococo was at 50 to 1 ; and after the advanoe of the latter the filly never went very well in the market, so that it was not surprising her chance should be sacrificed by her making running. There were queer doings over the Plate from beginning to end, and some parties must have made a nice • book " out of Brown Bread, Barry Braildord, Zenobia, Honesty, Caithnees, Lady Vane, and Dolan, who all saw 10 to 1, or less, in their turn, and many of whom, ' by certain " bulling " operations well understood in the City, were kept before the public for weeks at favourite prices. Less sensitive than their contemporaries, the owners of Zenobia and the jocularly-named Honesty sent them to Newcastle, so that their simple admirers could drain the cup of bitterness to the last ; and as if to make it more galling, the Honestish party were not afraid to let their " Instrument " win two of his engagements in a style to prove him a good horse. This tactic was not at all liked, no more than was Honesty's " defeat " by Podargus for the Queen's Guineas, and even when their Lozenge, " hard held," managed to win a race by a head, people would not be satisfied—perhaps the Honestish men were not either, d their sensitive hearts must have been sorely touched by an the official " caution " given to Lozenge's jockey after he obtained the judge's fiat. With so many of the " settled " division absentees, the Northum berland Plate field dwindled down, of course, to a very small number, and Windham (who settled himse_ll . l7 the victory, whereby 101 b extra was incur re d , at Liverpool), with the wret c h e d Missile Lady Durham might just as well have declined from the part they took in the race, which was left to the three placed, of whom only Rococo ran like a stayer, a long way from borne. The remaining business of the week was not eventful, Worcester (whereat Lord Coventry did not run a single horse) passing off as quietly as it is to be hoped the coming Newmarket July meeting will do. Held " behind the ditch," this Is one of the most pleasant " outings " racing men have in the summer, and there will be plenty to amnia them on three of the four days, if only a moiety of the good performers engaged in the three meek juvenile stakes Jamie. Tuesday's July, on the five furlongs 136 T.Y.C. is quite a Derby in its way, Marksman, Hermit , The Flake Cellina, Sunnylocks, Huntsman, King Charles, Verulam, and d'Estournel having all succeeded in greeting a judge first, al though • few of them can presume to contend against Criciiix the Second, a title Achievement has rendered herself fully deserving of, by her quintet of easy victories over some of the best " form" out. The very pick of them may not care to meet her at even weights, and I shall ex pect to find both the Rake and Marksman absentees when the starters are announced, in the event of which Achieve. meet, on public running, will have everything that has been out safe, as she beat Hermit easily in the Woodoote, and the latter performed the like office for the " maiden" Julius, Vauban, and Ailesbury, at Stockbridge. But it is pretty certain that only one of the four just named, Vauban, was up to the mark on the occasions here alluded to, and were Julius to carry the money of his patient owner, I should not only anticipate his turning the tables upon Hermit, but should be prepared to see him stretch the legs of Achievement. The filly has, at any rate, as much to fear from Julius as from the best of the " dark " colts and fillies opposed to her, notwithstanding they consist of Cerf, Volsnt, Distin, Red Shoes, Sir Oliver, and some two dozen others that can boast the bluest of blood ; for very few owners care to risk breaking youngsters' hearts by letting them take their first lessons from such a schoolmistress. Thus, under all the circum stances, the July Stakes look like being pocketed b Colonel Pearson through his sister to Lord Lyon, although there is me certainty about Achievement emulating the double triumph of Crucifix the First, who, in '39, won both the July and Chesterfield, even supposing the first event to be already won. The second race, fixed for Thursday, is over half a mile only, and there must be a doubt whether she can beat Hippie at level weights (both are penalised 71b.), whilst at present Dragon, Julius, and Lady Hester, with all Achievement's "dark" antagonists, are in receipt of 71b. The trio of maidens just named ought to previously fi gure in the Exeter Stakes on Wednesday, and Julius prove a St. George to the Dragon ; but, anyhow, it is easy to under. seta the Ch d cannot be fairly discussed until the eve of its decision, when the question will be what is most likely to hest Hippie, a long way the best of those not entered in the July or Exeter Stakes. Very few of the other events already made up, a baker's dozen in number, will excite grave attention, and the same may be said of the seventeen proposed races, which are not certain to fill in every instance, as owners of horses have to subscribe most of the money to be run for, the executive only giving about 400 f. actually to them. All the opinion I can commit myself to is that Blinkhoolie or Batty may win the 25 sore. Sweepstakes, for two year olds, half a mile, Bounceaway her match with Problem, the General one of the private handicap sweepstakes, and Lord Ronald the other ; Love Apple or Dulcimer, the Beaufort Handicap, one mile and a half, or anything else their respective owners may choose to make their gave with ; Mount Palatine, the Midsummer Stakes; and the Stier or Coup d'Etat, the Summer Handicap. The Carlisle Meeting, held on Tuesday and Wednesday, will be little more than a reflex of Newcastle, judging from the skeleton programme, Mr. Masterman having Honesty, Fitzroy, and Lozenge in the four closed races, and little more to fear than Flatesteher for the Cumberland Plate, and Holstein for the Lottery Handicap. —I am, DIET'gOR. WITTING IN LONDON.--SATURDAT. The attendance to-day was pretty numerous, and • fair amount of business was done. The Goodwood Stakes, being the next handicap of Importance to be dedded, commanded con. siderable attention, and several horses were introduced to no tice. The Special, who up to the present has been Orel favowite, did not appear quite so firm, as he receded to 9 to 1, but at that price he found numerous supporters, who prevented his retrogradtog further. A new favourite made his appearance to the llidht Colt, and being backed for good money, he speedily advanced to 10 to 1 taken freely. la Fortune was also men tioned for the fleet time, and advanced rapidly. The position of Nu remained unaltered ; she was backed several times at the price quoted below, and has evidently no lack of friends. Othello was decidedly in bad odour, and left off at 16 to 1 offered. The July Stakes promises to be • dead letter, Achievement being regarded such a certainty that 8 to 4 was offered on her without a response, and the odds of 10 to 1 " bar one" went beg ging.

THE CATTLE Plant:E.—lt appears from the weekly return of the reported cues of cattle plague in Great Britain, issued by authority' of the Lords of the Privy Council, that a diminution in the number of attacks continues to be maintained. During the week ended 23rd June the number of attacks of reported in Great Britain was 406; 38 3 in England, 7in Wales, and 15 in Scotland. The number, vie. 405, shows a decrease of 128 on the previous return. Co rrecting the total, by add ing an average of attacks commencing during the week, but which may be suequently reported, the number for the week wilt be 506. The following 22 counties hare from the ooaunenoement remained free from the disease, viz, Westmoreland, Monmouth, the six oonnties of South Wales, Montgomery, Merioneth, Carnarvon, Anglesey, Wigtown, Bate, Aron, Banff, Elgin, Nairn, Ross and Cro marty, Sutherland, - Caithness, and Orkney and Shetland. The hot columns of the table (pp. 2 and 3) show what other counties have been free from disease during each of the four weeks preceding this return, fie f ar as information has I been received. In 62 counties no Mass have been reported as occurring during the week. 9 counties and " the metropolis," show an increase of 52 cases ; and 13 counties, I and the 3 ridings of Yorkshire, show a decrease of 180 cues. Up to the date of this return more than 50 (50'6) in every 1,000 of the ordinary stock of cattle in Great Britain have been attacked, and to every 1,000 attacks, whose results have been reported, 861 animals perished.

After Term Nisi Prins Sittings ►t Westminster.—ißefore the Lord Chief Justice and ► Speci►l Jury.) VALENTIN O. HALL. This was the sixth and last day of the hearing of this remarkable case. Mr. Berjeant Symon, the learned counsel for the plaintiff, occupied four hours and a quarter of the day in minutely reviewing the facts of the case, contrasting the apparent discrepancies in the evidence and pointing out his reasons for saying that the truth was on the side of that lady. The jury, after a quarter of an hour's consultation, re turned a verdict for the defendant, and further, that there were no bank notes in the bag. Sittings at Nisi Prins at Guildhall.—(Before Mr. Justice Mellor and a Special Jury.) JUDD V. THE MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LINCOLNSHIRE RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action to recover compensation in damages for bodily injuries sustained by a railway accident. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Day, and Mr. M'Cleod were for the plainti ff ; Mr. Bovill, Q.C., and Mr. James Russell for the defendants. The plaintiff, a young man, about 28 years of age, was described as a person of considerable scientific attain ments, who had filled the situation of analytical chemist in a large establishment at Sheffield. On the 23rd December, 1864, he left Sheffield by the 6.15 express train for London, with the intention of passing his Christ mas with his friends in the metropolis. The train bad not gone far before a collision took place, the result of which was that the plaintiff, who was travelling in a second-clue carriage, was knocked against the opposite side of the compartment to that on which he sat. He received no external injw but he was partially stunned by the blow and became sick and dizzy. He proceeded to London, and hoped a night's rest would put him all right, but he got worse, and in seven days he took the advice of a medical man, who gave it as his opi nion that he was suffering from oppression of the brain and partial paralysis and other symptoms, which be attri buted to an accident. He was afterwards visited by Mr. Child, the regular s nof the company, and that gentleman ridiculed the case , and Meld the illness of the plaintiff arose from fever caused by his having overeaten himself at Christmas, the fact being that in consequence of the accident he bad scarcely been able to eat anything. Other medical men were con sulted, and the plaintiff was sent to the Isle of Wight for the benefit of his health. Having become better, he re turned to Sheffield, and attempted to resume his situation, but unfavourable symptoms again appeared, and by medi cal advice he was induced to give up all work. He had resigned his situation, andhad since been in a state of abso lute idleness. For the damage he had thus sustained he now sought compensation. In reply to the learned judge it was stated that the de fendants admitted negligence on their part. The defence was that the plaintiff's illness was to be attributed to typhus or typhoid fever. There was a considerable amount of medical evidence on both rides, and, as usual in these cases, it was of a very conflicting nature. . . IJltimaiely the jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff—da magea 500/. SECOND COURT. Sittings at Nisi Prius at Guildhall.—(Before Mr. Justice Lash and •Common Jiu7.) DOVER V. TOMO. This case arose out of • dispute in a railway carriage on the subject of smoking. The action was brought for assault. The defendant pleaded a justification, and that the plaintiff was smoking in a railway carriage. Mr. Serjeaut Robinson and Mr. Begley were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. D. Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. Butler Rigby for the defendant. In March last the plaintiff, a builder, and his wife, got into a railway carriage at London-bridge. He had a cigar in his mouth, and several other passengers were also smoking. Afterwards the defendant, who is an attorney, at Streatham, cams up to the carriage door, and, calling out "No smoking, gentlemen," proceeded to enter. Some of the paseengers asked him to get into another compart ment, but he entered and sat down. While the plaintiff was lighting his cigar with a fusee the defendant gave him a slap on the cheek, and the ash fell on piaady's dress, and the fusee on the whiskers of another "gehtletruin. The plaintiff remonstrated with the defendant on his conduct, but he responded by calling him • bully and saying that if they were outside he would give him • good thrashing. A demonstration was made by some of the passengers in the carriage against the defendant, and in the course of it the defendant was struck by an umbrella. At New Cross the plaintiff complained to the guard of the assault, and the guard asked the defendant to go into another carriage, but he refused to do so. When the train reached Forest-bill there was, after some further angry discussion, an exchange of names. Subsequently the plaintiff was summoned at the Greenwich Police-court for smoking in a railway carriage, and fined It. The defendant, who gave evidence on the occasion, offered to withdraw the sum mons if the plaintiff would apologise, but he refused, and the result of the whole affair was the present action. In cross-examination the plaintiff denied that the defen dant said smoking affecte d his chest, or that he asked plaintiff three times before the assault was committed to put out his cigar. He admitted that the other passengers had not lighted their cigars when the train started, and asserted that the defendant was the worse for liquor when he guile in the carriage. The ilnVff's evidence was corroborated by other wit nessecw -- "icithe defence, the allegation that the defendant had be drinking was entirely denied, and it was said he had been engaged all day in settling an abstract, and waa going home to dine with his family on the evening in ques tion. When be entered the carriage the re was no smo • , but immediately the train started cigars were lighted. begged the smokers to desist, as the fumes of tobacco were objectionable to him, and when they would not he let down the window, but it was instantly put up again. He then, as they would neither allow the window to be open nor leave off smoking, took the cigar out of the plaintare mouth, and at the same time a foreigner who was smoking struck the defendant in the face with his fist. Mr. Justice Lush observed that the plaintiff's witnesses had proved the defendant's plea, for it appeared from their evidence that the plaintiff was smoking, and that on his refusing to desist the defendant removed the cigar from his mouth. Accordingly, a verdict waa entered for the defendant. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. Jere 30. (Before the Judge Ordinary and a Special Jury.) GAMBIT C. DERMOT!. Mr. Brett, Q.C., and Dr. Wambey for the plaintiff ; Mr. &Small, Q.C., and Dr. &pinks for the defendant ; Dr. Tristram for other parties. In this ease the pl►intiff propounded the will of a lady named Jackson, who died at the age of 74, ►t Liverpool ; and the defendant opposed probate, alleging want of sound mind in the testatrix. The property is considerable, and was inherited from her brother, John Dennison. The plaintiff is a doctor, and was a friend of the testatrix, and the defendant represents the brother's branch of the family, which was not remembered in the will. The evidence forthe plaintiff was to prove that Mrs. Jackson knew perfectly well what she was doing when she executed the and there being no evidence to the contrary on the part of the defendant, his counsel with drew. The jury found accordingly; the court pronounced for the will, and ordered costs to be paid out of the estate. HILL V. HVG`ITA. The testator was a hairdresser at Manchester. He made a will in 1856, and added a codicil in 1863, and deposited both with his banker for safe custody. On the 14th Sep tember, 1865, he asked for and got the documents back. About that time he fell into an illusion that he was reduced to poverty, and although be was really worth 8,0001.,the could not be convinced of it. In this kind of in sanity be committed suicide, and then the will could not be fesand. The presumption was that be destroyed it ; and the question now to be decided was whether he destroyed it before or after he became insane. The jury found that the will was in existence up to the time the testator went out of his mind, and The court pronounced for the will (which existed in draft) ; costs to oome oat of the estate. Tai WEBTIEINSTZR ABBEY SERVlCE3.—Yesterday eve there wee • very large congregation in the nave of Westminster Abbey, to hear • sermon by the Rev.

Flood Jonas, M.A., minister of St. Matthews, Spring-gardens, the lessons being read by the Very Rev. Dean Stanley. Professor Jowett selected for his text the 26th chapt er of the Acts of the Apostles, verses 24 and 25 : ' And as he thus mike for himself, Padua said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself ; much learning (loth make thee mad. But be said, lam not mad, meet noble Feetus but speak forth the words of truth and soberness." The sermon at the special service next Sunday evening will be preached by the Rev.

Mr. Charles Hastings Collette, of the firm of Pritchard and Collette, of 57, Lineobes-inn-fields, applied to Alder man Lusk to adjourn the hearing of summons that had been granted by Alderman Allen spinet Mr. Joseph Henry Batty, for painting and publishing in the Church man newspaper a libel against the said Mr. C. H. Collette. He said that since the summons had been issued he had received communications from the proprietor, of that paper and they had agreed to refer their differences to some lite rary gentleman of high standing ; and if the hearing were postponed until Tuesday, the 10th of July, the probability was that the defendant would make the amends honorable, and the court would b ear no more about it. Alderman Lwk said he would accede to the request, and trusted Mr. Collette's anticipations would be fully realised. The summons was accordingly adjourned. MARYLKBONE. Samuel Kitchener, 44 X, was charged with &ranking a cabman named Robert Manning. On the sth of last mouth Manning and some other cab men were coming out of the Prince of Wales public-house Bishop's-road, when the defendant asked him if his cub was engaged. Upon Manning saying that it was, the de fendant asked him with an oath if he thought policemen were such fools as to believe that. Manning spoke to him about using such language, when the defendant assaulted him and knocked him down, and then conveyed hint to the station-house, where he was again assaulted, and his mouth and nose made to bleed. Committed for triaL MARLBOROUGH-STREET. - - John Potter Sergeant, of No. 2, Pavement, Glasgow (otherwise Crowther &with), and John Sutton, of Blooms bury-street (commonly willed Dr. Sutton), dentist, were cha Se t with falsely representing himself to be John Po ed, tter Sergeant, and Sutton with aiding and abetting him. It was stated a John Potter Sergeant obtained dip lomas from the Royal College of Surgeons in 1838 and a license from the Apotheearies'-hall, and also that he died in 1846, at Walworth. Inquiries were made by the medical council, in pursuance of which the name was struck off the register. The prisoner Sergeant then obtained a man damus to compel the council to replace the name, bat it had recently been discovered that he had personated the real John Potter Sergeant, and bad possessed himself of that gentleman's diploma. He had at one time gone by the name of Crowther Smith, and had been in business as a clothier in the Hackney-road. Mr. Knox said this was a case for the Central Criminal Court, and the prisoner Sergeant was remanded, and bail refused. For Sutton, Mr. Knox said he would accept bail. MARKETS. COTTON.

COTTON GOODS.—KANCHZISTIR, Joao 30.—The market throughout the week has been one of slow but gradual improvement. On Tuesday all irood yarns for export were in demand at extreme prices, and home trade yarns were in moderate request at Id. per lb. in excess of Friday's rates. A large business was done in India cloth, at advanced prices, and cloths generally sold better. Shippingyann were again better to sell yesterday, when some orders of fair magnitude were placed at full prices, and home trade yarns were in steady demand at the advance of Tuesday. Water twist, and especially 16's to 24's, are depressed by the absence of continental de mand. Wprps, from 28's to 32's, for home consumption, and twist and pincops up to 40's are in moderate request, and steady in price. Yarns, from Egyptian cotton, and of the Bolton class generally are rather firmer in price. Cloths for India continue in request, and the demand is sufficient to take off the supply as it comes forward. There was disappointment yesterday that no alteration could be made in the Bank rate, but prices are quite as high as on Tuesday, with a fair demand. WOOLLEN.—LIeDs, Juirg 30.—There has not been a large attendance of buyers in the coloured hall this morn• ing, and the business transactions have been limited to a few parcels of mixture, meltons, and fancy oostings, toge ther with a sprinkling of plain cloths. The white market has not presented any new feature ; the transfer of heavy goods has not been large, and hairlista have been inquired after only to a moderate amount. Priam remain without any noticeable alteration. HARDWARE.—Biziasosam. Juni 30.—The trade of this town is utterly destitute of animation, that is the worst that can be said of it ; manufacturers have compara tively few orders on their books, and the number given out mince the new quarter commenced has been inconsi derable. The country shopkeepers are buying only just sufficient to keep up their stock to meet present require ments, and in all probability no change in that respect will be experienced for another month. But notwithstanding the aluggishnem in that respect our manufacturers have not yet had much cause for complaint ; in none of the great staple trades have goods been made up for stock, neither have they been upon short time at any of the works. There is less activity in the metal trades, and the demand for material has fallen off ; the edge-tool trade is dull, mainly in consequence of • scanty supply of export orders, and In jewellery and fancy of every description only • moderate amount of usiness has been done. The foreign trade is in • bad state ; the merchants engaged in the continental trade are not getting remittances, and orders are withheld which would otherwise be put in hand. The South American trade continues quiet ; on account of the West Indies, and South Africa, • few orders have just been given out, but as regards the Eastern markets generally very little I. being done. CORN.—CLUVRIDGE, Jura 30.—Our millers were un willing to give any advance upon wheat, and the market was dull, at last week's prices. Wheat, 48a. to 52a. ; beans, 48a. to 50a. ; oata, 235. to 28s.

Flour also commanded less attention, and as we are not likely to receive much from the south this side of harvest, holders were careless sellers. Good stout grind ing barley wanted. Malt inquired for. Beans and peas without change, and the same remarks will apply to oats, the demand, however, being left brisk than of late.

THE ClioLnita.—The inhabitants of the littletown of Winsford, in Cheshire, are in • state of great alarm at the sudden presence among them of a disease, the symptoms of which leave no room for doubt as to its being cholera. On Wednesday, Enoch Hodkineon, a strong healthy man, was suddenly attacked with diarrheas, which, speedily turning to cholera, carried him o ff within foureten hours of the appearance of the first symptoms. Three or four other members of this man's family have been affected with choleraic diarrhoea, but being promptly treated the climes* was checked. His youngest child, however, died of the disorder. Two other fatal cases of people living in cos house are reported. One lived twenty-three hours and the other exactly one day after the manifestation of choleraic iymptoms. Another case in an adjoining street at cos time threatened to prove fatal, but on Saturday the patient was reported to be reoovering. It is generally believed in Winsford that the disease has been introduced from Liverpool, but there is no positive evidence to sup port this supposition, which is founded on the fact that • considerable number of tramps from that town daily pus through the neighbourhood. With respect to an isolated case which has made its appearance at Nanterich, in the same county, it is, however, clear that Liverpool has been the source of the infection. Oa Sunday in last week a young man, named Dickin, arrived in Nantwich, having walked all the way from Ilverpee Soon after reaching his lodgings he fell sick, and as be appeared to grow worse every moment a doctor was sent for, who found him suffering from a severe attack of cholera. The usual remedies were applied, but notwith• standing every attention Blain died at daybreak os Tuesday, having been ill about 39 hours. He was buried at noon on the same day the doctor certifying that he " died of cholera," but declining to say whether of the Asiatic or English type, the patient being in a state of col lapse when he first saw him. Up to Saturday no further cases of cholera had manifested themselves in Nantvrich.
