LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNG 14. THE conclusion of the unfortunate war in New Zealand seems still remote. If all the fight ing Maories in the Northern Island were in the field they would scarcely number 5,000 men, but as some of the tribes are friendly to the British Government, and others are not under arms, it is probable that the enemy to be subdued amounts only to some 3,000. General CAMERON has not lees than 10,000 men under his command, including the local troops. But the difficulties arising from the nature of the country are so great, and the skill and courage displayed by the Maories are so remarkable, that the advantage incident to supe riority of numbers is by no means so great as it seems. Indeed, General Ciliates labours under precisely the same sort of difficulty as General Gamer and General SHERMA-•f in America. The country is thickly wooded, and without roads. So long as a river affords the means of penetrating the country and trans porting troops and provisions in safety, those who have river steamers are tolerably sure of success ; but when it become& necessary to advance by land the facilities for offering resistance are so great that a very few armed men can effectually delay the advance of disciplined troops. The scene of military operations in New Zea land is the most northerly of the three islands. Auckland is on the north-east coast of that island, and is tolerably protected, because a few miles south of the town the waters of the Manukan Harbour on the west, and those of the Tehmaki Channel on the east, almost unite, leaving an isthmus scarcely a mile broad. But south of this isthmus the island expands, and is covered with flourishing farms and prosperous settlers. This is the district which was attacked by the hostile tribes, and it is to prevent these incursions that it has become necessary to inflict a severe chastise ment on the rebellions Miseries. It was not thought sufficient to build a series of redoubts along this frontier, and to treat the Maories after the manner in which the United States Government treat the Indians on their frontier. It was determined to penetrate into the Maori country. How was this to be done The country, as we have said, was thickly wooded, and there were no roads. But there were rivers. A line drawn from Auckland southward will strike the Waikato River at about 30 miles south of that town. This Waikato River takes its rise in the centre of the island, at Lake Taupe, and after a course of more than 100 miles turns westward and falls into the sea. In its coune it receives the Waipa River, which, flowing nearer the western coast, joins the Waikato at Ngaruawahia, which is about 30 miles north of the point where the Waikato turns westward. Now, the plan of General CAMERON was to make these rivers, the Waipa and the Waikato, his roadways, by which he might penetrate through the forest, and by occupying a series of positions gradually obtain possession of the whole country. The invading column would never be further from the west coast than 20 or 30 miles, so that the General would always be able to establish a new base of supplies, whilst between the Waikato River and the east coast the parallel River Thames offered the same means of penetrating the country. As General CAMERON advances up the river he finds that the Maories have selected some strong positions on the bank, which they have carefully fortified. The main fortification, or pelt, gene rally consists of a wide and deep ditch enclosing a work strengthened by earth and timber. The pah is often constructed on the edge of a swamp, whilst the front is protected by rifle pits. The only mode of taking such a work is by lauding troops, if possible, in rear of it, and either working up to the edge of the ditch in the regular way, or by starving the garrison, which seldom exceeds 500 men. Attempts have sometimes been made to carry these " paha" by assault, but they have repeatedly ended in failure. By the mail which has just arrived it seems that Brigadier CAREY attempted to perform this feat, and suffered a reverse. General CAMERON having compelled the Maories to evacuate a series of these positions—Mere-mere, Rangiri, Tauriri, Ngaruawahia, and Paterangi—had advanced about 20 miles up the Waipa River. Leaving Brigadier CARET here, he himself marched eastward with 2,000 men to Maungatautari, on the upper waters of the Waikato River. It seems that one of General CarzaoN's reasons for adopting this course was, that the east coast tribes and the Upper Waikato's, with the Maori King Marrarzaa, and the leading rebel chief WILLIAM THOMPSON, were in position at that place on the eastern aids of the Delta formed by the Waipa and the Waikato rivers. Brigadier CAREY soon found that the :glories were erecting defences near his front at a place called Orakou, and on the 31st of March last he marched all his available troops to that place. Having reconnoitered the pah, be discovered it to be a strongly fortified earthwork, protected by palisades and a ditch. He determined to storm it. But no scaling ladders had been provided, and the men were twice repulsed. " Out of the " fourteen who led the storming party, only seven a remained alive. Some vainly attempted to climb " the parapet, but the gallant fellows were " either shot or had to desist, seeing how hopeless " the attempt was." Indeed, it was not until General CAMERON brought reinforcements, and the place was approached in the regular way, that I the Maories would abandon it. Even it this there seems to have been a strange mismarriage. The garrison was only 300 strong, but when they saw themselves surrounded, they " mad* a " rush en mane from the south aide of " their works, and dashing through the " lines of the 40th Regiment, who it " would appear were taken by surprise, and made "no effective resistance, escaped through the " swamp, flying for their lives." However, as many as 160 were either killed or taken prisoners. The capture of the pah at Orakou does not seem to have been without its effect ; for the natives at Maungatantari evacuated their position and re• treated into the interior. It is said that General CarmeoN does not intend to advance further into the interior this season, for want of transport. If, therefore, further advance must be made, it must be deferred for the present. In the meantitoe the settlers at Hawke's Bay, on the east coast, and those at Wellington, on the south-west coast, begin to be alarmed lest the rebellions natives abandoning the Auckland districts should make incursions into the southern towns and settle ments. The sudden attack made upon Captain LLOYD and hie reconnoitering party, nearTaranaki, shows the danger to which small parties are ex posed if they venture to go any distance into the country, and the atrocities committed upon the dead bodies prove the bitter spirit of hostility which animates the natives. It may be that the military authorities find it essential to march through the northern island. If this be so, the people of this country must make up their mind to a prolonged and expensive contest. Undoubtedly, it is not the policy which was adopted with the Indian tribes in America ; or which could be adopted except in an island like New Zealand. THE EXPRESS, 'TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 14, 1864.

This morning was issued, in a parliamentary return of 143 pages, the report of the above committee, with the proceedings and appendix. The report itself occu pies 45 pages, and is dated the 31st ult. The first inquiry of the committee was directed to the metropolitan distress of 1860 and 1861, with a view of ascertaining how far the law, in its ordinary mode of operation, was able to bear the strain of such an emergency. The result of their Inquiry was that such distress "could here been relieved by the poor-law authorities, inasmuch an the legal maehieery of administration was suffi cient, and the guardian. possessed the requisite powers for raising the necessary funds for the purpose ; but the legal charge would have pressed very heavily on some parishes within the metropolis. The regular action, how ever, of the poor law was, to a considerable adept. rendered unnecessary by voluntary contributions ; and however de sirable it is that in great emergencies destitution should be relieved by spontaneous charity, your committee find that on the occasion in question evils resulted from the want of • sufficient organisation for the investigation of the cases of the persons relieved." We subjoin resolutions on various branches of the in quiry : " That the continuance of a central authority is essential for securing the due and uniform administration of the laws for the relief of the poor ; and your committee are of opinion that it would contribute to its efficiency if .it were placed upon • permanent footing. " That the power of issuing general orders now possessed by the Poor-law Hoards salutary and useful, and should be continued. " That in order to secure the due discharge of their duties by the principal officers of unions and parishes, it is, in the opinion of your committee, essential that their tenure of office should not be terminable without the concurrence of the central authority ; and it is not expedient, therefore, that the power which the guardians already Kees@ of die. missing the subordinate of seta should be further extended. " That it was shown to your committee that inconvo• nieces resulted from the continuance in office of persons, who, by reason of infirmity of body or mind, had become incapable of efficiently discharging their ditties, but whose removal had been postponed from personal considerations; and your committee therefore recommend that a power should be conferred upon boards of guardians to provide at their discretion for the superannuation of certain union offices, the exercise of such power to be subject to the control of the *sutra authority. " That there are no sufficient grounds for materially interfering with the present system of medical relief, which was made the subject of special and lengthened inquiries by select committees of this house in the years 1844 and 18:4. The recommendations of those committees were for the most part carried out by the orders of the Poor-law Beard, and the system of medical relief appears to be administered with general advantage. Your committee, however, recom mend that in future cod-liver oil, quinine, and other ex pensive medicines, shall be provided at the expense of the guardians, subject to the orders and regulations of the Poor-kw Board. " That the committee, having regard to the recommen dation contained in the reports of the select com mittee of this house an the Poor Law Amendment Act in 1838, and of the committee of inquiry appointed by the Tresaury in 1852, and also to the anomaly now existing of the appointment of the auditors being vested in the chairmen and vice-chairmen of boards of guardians, consider that the power of appointing district auditors should is future be meted in the central authority. The committee are further of opinion that the time of those officers when appointed should be wholly . devoted to the public service, and that with this view their numbers should be reduced as mamma occur, and the vacant districts isoorporated with others. " net the Poor•law Board should be Jousted with power to defioe the incidental expenses Mauled by guardian' which should be charged on the rates, " Your committee are of opinion that it is seesaws to the toiform action of the poor-law, that the central autho. rity should hare the same powers In unions and pariahs' sow acting under local statutes, or under the Gilbert Act, as in unions or perishes constituted under the Poor-law Amendment Act." There are also • series of resolutions respecting the religious right• of inmates of workhouses and district schools who are not members of the Church of England, aid four new regulations are proposed to be substituted for those now in force. The effect of the new regulations is to secure to every child religious instruction in acco r d ance with the persuasion of the father, if known, or of the mother where that of the father is unknown. The religion of illegitimate children to be considered that of the mother. They recommend that where there are • numerous body of paupers, not belonging to the established church, sours remuneration should be provided for the minister attending them. The committee condemn the proposal of the Educa tion COCaraiiiioooll to rumpsl guardians to insist on the education of the child aa a condition of out-door relief to the parents. Thapprove of district schools, distinct from the workhouse, and that children ought to be sent to such schools from • greater distance than 20 miler. In masy cases they think that greater power should be gives to the central board to require guardians to make adequate arrangements for • proper classificatioe of the inmates. The following are the resolutions adopted by the com mittee respecting the casual and houselera poor of the metropolis and the eqoslissition of the poor rate: That, io order to secure sufficient and convenient MACS for the relief of the casual sad bounders poor within the metropolis, as defined by the Metropolitan Local Manage ment Act, it is expedient that the charges incurred for the support of inch poor should be paid out of a rate assessed on the annual rateable value of the whole of the said metro- P ° . l !"' - - "That, in the opinion of this committee, the machinery adopted under the Metropolitan Loral Management Act might he made available for raising the amount of such charge, and your committee recommend that authority be given to the Metropolitan Bo ar d o f W or k s f or such •par. " That the Poor-law Board be empowered to prescribe and enforce all necessary arrangements for providing the regal rite accommodation in the several unions sad parishes, and otherwise carrying the foregoing resolutions into effect. " That, with the view of supp ress i ng vagrancy, as far as practicable, the committee are of opinion that the mistral authority, when invested with adequate power for that purpose, should direct boards of guardians to provide suit able and sufficieat wards for the reception of the wayfaring and wandering poor, and that the regulations for their management and relief should be ou a uniform system throughout the country. The committee approve of the employment of Folios constables as assistant relieving Offieer f for vagrants, and think it desirable that the arrange ment should be generally adopted. "That much evidence wee adduced, showing the unequal pressure of the charge for the relief of the poor in different parts of the metropolitan district; and various plans were submitted to your committee for the equalisation of the poor rate, and your committee reccenmead the general quotation of extending the area of rating to the farther COO sidaration of the house ; but the circumstances of the me tropolis are so peculiar, that in any legislation to extend the area of charge or management, it would be necessary to have regard to those circumstances. "That any meeaure for extendlog the area of rating should. in the opinion of the committee, embrace proviatoss for making the whole cost for the poor in each union charge able to the common fund of the uoion." LATEST INTELLIGFINOZ. THZ lONIAN ISLANDS. THE KING OF THE GREEKS AT CORFU. A letter from Corfu of the 6th says : The King of the Hellions arrived ljere this morning, escorted by her Blajady's ship Revenge, carrying the lag of Rear-Admiral Yelvertoe, and the French and Rime= ship of war Magicienne and Oleg. In order to render his entry into Corfu as imposing as possible, a temporary wharf had been erected in the Bay of Castrades, whence, preceded by his Capo Stalliere—m gorgeous as Widdicombe himself, and whom the populace occasionally mistook and saluted for the King—and two outriders, he drove slowly into the town, enthasiastimlly cheered, and, ea his passed through the streets, literally pelted with bouquets from the windows which beauty, fashion, and loyalty occupied. His Majesty proceeded directly to the Church of St. Bpiridiooe, where he made his obeisance to the well-pre served mint, and received the benedictory welcome of the Greek Archbishop ; thence he made his way to the palace apparently much pleased with he reception, as he kept on bowing from right to left with a happy smile on his open boyish face. His councillor, Count Sponneck, sat by his side serious and thoughtful, speculating, perhaps, on the average duration of Hellenic enthusiasm. In the afternoon the young King put on a pistol and a white hat, and, taking his seat on the box of his phaeton, drove at a rattling pace along the favourite road, the One Gun Battery, astonishing the country people, who found it a difficult matter to dinsociate majesty from fine clothes. To make up for this, however, King George appeared at the illuminations in the evening dressed in the uniform of the National Guard, and bestriding a prancing charger. The King purposes making a stay of eight dams in Coign, and on his homeward way will pay passing visits to the principal southern islands. It will be then, when the novelty and excitement of her new existence will have worn off, when lonia in the cold grey morning light contemplates the remains of the wedding feast and calculates its cast, that au interval of painful thoughts and sad forebodings must intrude. Already the Man of the people feel the loss of a good and liberal cus tomer ; the shops are empty, the market-place is deserted, the homes are tenantlem ; the Greek soldier affects airs of superiority over the provincial, and looks upon the Seven Islands as on the summer residence of the Hellenic King, or at best as an Athenian suburb. The conscription lists are unrolled ; the tax-collector is girding up his loins. SUFFERINGS OF THE POLES. The following appears in the Ojezyzna of Warsaw under the date of June 4 : Yesterday • fresh relay of 200 exiles was sent forward to the extremity of Ruasia—tne sixty-third of the same kind which has left Warsaw in the space of • year and • half. Most of these relays amounted to between 400 and 500 per sons ; bat, if we take only an average of 300, this will give • total of 20,000 persons deported within this short period. Amongst the exiles of the 4th of June was Mdlle. Gasolinic& (we do not know what has become of her two sisters ; report says that one of them died in hospital from the effects of • whipping which she received). and the ladies Mystkowska, Plichta, Dombrowlics, and Swientoch weeks. It is computed that 120,000 persons have been de ported from Lithuania, and the number does not appear to be in the least exaggerated. THE ALABAMA AT CHERBOURG. The fallow Confederate cruiser, the Alabama, made her appearance in Cherbourg harbour on Saturday. After being duly authorised by the commandant of the place, it landed 40 prisoners, which the captain said he had taken out of Federal ships destroyed at sea. The Alabama stands in great need of repairs, and has asked permission to have them done at Cherbourg. (worm's nimisAms.) THE INSURRECTION IN ALGERIA.

At Coimbra fires have occurred in the houses of several of the professors. Suspicions have fallen on the students, in consequence of which the council of the university have suspended the lec tures until some provision has been made for the security of the professors. CLUB RULE IN MECKLENBURG-SCHWERIN. The People's Gazette of Berlin contains the fol lowing details from a correspondent respecting the kind of rale which obtains in klecklenburg-Schwerin :—" Mr. N—, who has already acquired some notoriety by beating his servant maid so severely that she had to be sent to hospital, has written to the physician of the hospital of Rostock, where one of his workmen lies ill, to may that he wee ready to pay for the cost of his ' provender.' He has already taken steps for properly carrying oat the law of the stick by making his schoolmaster take the oath of a juge crinstruction and his watchmen that of a polies agent. A prison for the special use of the ' happy workmen on the estate bas been built in the castle." The writer states that it is the custom on several estates for the peasants to take off their hats when passing by the castles, and to keep their heads uncovered till they have passed, although no member of the family should be seen about. A letter from Stargard (Pomerania), in the Revue d Gazette Husicak, says : " Among the papers of a recently damaged inhabitant of this place have been discovered 23 manuscripts of Mozart. Among them are a sort of comedy called ' Apollo and Hyaci nth. set to music by W. Mozart, May 13, 1766; a' symphony for two violins, two violon. cellos, two hautbois, two horns, and three basses. by Mozart ; Vienna and Olmutz, 1767 ;* a ' concerto for piano and orchestra, dedicated to the Emperor Leopold, Vienna, 1784,' and several symphonies composed at Sa/zburg.'• THE Kix° or Savutta.—A letter from Munich states that King Louis, a short time since met with as es A. dent which might have cost trim his life. During his last stay at the Chateau of Barg, near the Lake of Sternberg, be m o de several excursions on horseback in the neighbourhood. On descending a rather steep road his Majesty wished to put on his great coat, and, in order to avoid calling on any of hie atteedante to assist 'aim, pot the bridle in his mouth. The animal, being suddenly startled by some noise, dropped his bead so violently as to pull the bridle from the King's month, who was pulled over the heard of the horse and fell heavily to the ground. Fortunately, the road was very seedy, and his Majesty escaped with only a slight wound on his right cheek. THE BRARMIN'S RETMEN.-IKshiptitram Roo- param, the Bombay Brahmin, brought an action for libel against some of his fellows who, on his return from Eng land, addressed him ass petit, i.e.. a sinful man. He has failed in the action, which is chiefly remarkable for the opinions a:premed by the native magistrate, himself a Hindoo, who tried the case. In the obaerratioos he made this officer stated that the step Yabiputrem took wee certain to create persecution. "He should bars been prepared for it, and should not have submitted to the disgusting ceremonies which he performed. His en lightened mind moat have been shocked at the performance of the ceremonies he underwent. He should have declined to perform these ceremonies on the broad ground that his visit to Europe was not inconsistent with the Vedic reli gion. If his caste fellows did sot re-admit him into ths caste, he should not have oared a straw for it." Barely the schoolmaster is abroad.—Friend ofj /edict.. THE FEDERAL NATIONAL pzer.—An American has measured and weighed the Federal tuitional debt, which is 4,000,000,000 dollars. Estimated in silver dollars, he says that if they were placed edge to edge they would stretch nearly 90,000 miles.

But the professors, the majority of wham sympathise with M. Rena; took an indirect method of making a demonstration against his dismissal. They nominated to the new chair of "comparative grammar," the creation of which formed part of the arrangement connected with M. Renan's re moval from the Hebrew chair, M. Adolphe Regnier, a well known Orleanist, who resided for a long while with the Duchess of Orleans at Eisenach, and was tutor to her children. K Regnier is a mem ber of the Institute, and the author of a translation , of Schiller. The Emperor is not bound to accept this nomination, although it is almost a matter of course that he should do so ; but what adds to the complication of the affair is the fact that in all pro. bability M. Replier will refuse to take the oath of allegiance. The Moniteur du Soir affirms that the English expedition against the Ashantees has been beaten back with a very heavy loss, especially of officers. The Siecte has a long article, the object of which is to show that Austria, so far from entertaining any gratitude towards France for having made a present of the throne of Mexico to an Archduke of the house of Hapsburg, now treats Venice worse than ever, and is reinforcing the quadri lateral with the especial view of exercising a pressure upon the election of a new Pope in the shortly-expected event of the death of Pius IX., and preventing the triumph of French influence at Rome. That irrational and indiscriminate patriotism which in France goes by the name of Chaurinione, and which lately showed itself in the dishonest, and to this hour uncorrected distortion of the case of File de l'Air at Epsom, and in the disgraceful hissing of Blair Athol at Longcbamps, is now illus trated by the Paris newspapers in their account of the cricket match between the Warwickshire Knickerbockers and the Paris Club. French people never play cricket, and know nothing about the game. The French papers took no notice of the match between the Paris Club and Sir Robert Clifton's Nottingham Eleven, in which the latter were victorious. But now, running away with the story that Paris has beaten Warwickshire, they at once proceed to boast of the national superiority in cricket as in other things. They say nothing about the " Paris Club," but announce that the " Pari sians" have taken a " splendid revenge" over their adversaries on the " other side of the Channel." The fact that the Paris Club consists entirely of English residents is conveniently suppressed. The /haiku,. du Soir and other journals attempt to explain the game of cricket, and in so doing make a number of amusing blunders. They succeed pretty well in their description of a wicket, which they translate quichet. But then, confounding wicket ant cricket, they say it is a most surprising thing that the men who play the game are also call.d quichets. it is now, on the faith of the Parisian organs of public instruc tion, a settled thing that France is as superior to England in cricketing as in horseracing.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF LORDS. APPEALS. TKLVIZTOW r. TZLVIRTON. The heating of this caw yea this corning resumed. Lord Brougham stated that be had received •letter from one of the whams., which of mums he could not Weal to, but it was most i•proper to addreee any peer on the subject of a owe before Shim The Attorney-General mond the case of the re spondent, aad complained of the abominable misrepre imitations of the (ended of his client, which had been brought forward, tied which attributed to her the posesst of proceedings for the worst of purposes. The Lame view had been adopted by the Lord Ordinary, but de did nut find that the Lord President bad taken that amuse, while the opinion of the other judges, Lord Carriehill and Lord Dees, ware in the law against the mepoodent, yet they did not make such scandalous imputations as had been made on her at the bar, and which could not have been put forward by the maned for the appellant, anises they had felt that en making out their contention that there was no promise of marriage they were so little supported by fact u to be compelled to have resort to inainuations of immoral feelings and intentions on the part of the respondent. It would be his duty to meet and dispute these assertions by an examination of the real circumstances of the case. He called attention to the words of Lord Carriehill, in which he said that the termination of the correspondence left the parties in this position , that on their meeting in Scotland in February, 1839, they, on the one hand, were not actually married, nor had there been ever • concluded agreement. or promise to marry ; but on the other hand, there had been pending for years a treaty of marriage between them, and the very purpose of this meeting was to consider • proposal to complete the marriage in some irre gular manner. Founding himself on this statement, the learned counsel laid down as • proposition that the whole of the evidence went to establish a most persevering purpose and intention of marriage between the parties, and this on the part of both of them. Although the correspondence was commenced by the respondent, yet it was so managed by the appellant that it became • correspondence in the nature of courtship. Purim' to the meeting at Oak* in August, 1834 the ourespondeoce had. by means of the appellant, usumed such • form that the re lative position of the parties appeared to Lady Stasubsume to be one of contemplated marriage. At Balaklava occur rences took place which pee the respondent to under stand that, although there were obstacles, if they could be removed the marriage would be brought about. The correspondence then proceeded on this footing— at least that there would be • marriage which, while it would satisfy the scruples of the respondent would per haps place her for a time in a disadvantageous if not equivocal position. It was maim' this the respondent struvrled, mama all the discomfort, all the horror which to • virtuous woman would surround • secret marriage, and accounted for the terrible conflict in the feeling of the respeedeut, which was apparent from the evidence. He would treat very lightly all that had been brought forward to the disparagement of the respondent, before the commencement of the correspondence, all the imputations as to misrepresentation of the status of her family; and insinuations with regard to hercooduct towards a Dr. Alsop, with whom she had some relations which tended towards • mamage with him, and be should come at once to • meeting of the tes t and the appellant on board the steamer, in which quaintance emirate& All that was known about it, was that it was • casual ac quaintance made on that introduction, arising out of the attentions paid to a lady whom he did uotmeen to in sult, and that they became interested in each others conversation, which turned on intellectual subject.; but there was act the slightest proof that on the part of either of them there was any suggestion of impro• priety, and nothing was more probable that on parties they should express a mutual wish that they should some day meet again. The lady was the child of parents who had been somewhat mglipt; she received part of her location in • Roman cath ol ic coeval* was of an imaginative and romantic turn, and had • taste for poetry of that high intellectual character of which, in the present day, Tennyson and Longfellow were the representatives. She was comparatively Ignorant of the images and conveationali• ties of the world, and this oombieed with her education and tastes would indica. towards • romantic view of men and things; and her imagination would be easily excited, and such a mind would be unguarded in following out its owe interest. and views without reference to the ordinary standard of manners. The appellant also seemed to hare been • man of intellectual pursuits, and, setting at defiance conventionalities, of a literary taste somewhat consonant with that of the respondent, and it was quite in telligible that such • pair getting into conversation such as that which occurred on bred the steamer could but part with • feeling of sympathy generated between them. The respondent had • cowl!), orient at Monastic. of whom at that time she spoke se a brother, who had been brought up in bar father's bolus, and stood in the relation of • brother to her. In order to get a letter to this cousin more easily than through the ordiparyoramils the rseponden t wrote to the t, proba to dy referring the acquaintance on board the steamer i (the letter of the reepondeat was not forth coming), and asking the favour of forwarding her letter to her cousin. and if she wait no further than that no possible blame could attach to her. It was fair to infer that the appellant was am much attracted by the respondent as she might have been by him, and if she did give him an oppor tunity of opening soorreepoodere if he desired it. and it was be who tint diverted the correspondence into the chancel of correspondence, for in his very first letter he tells her that he was anxious to go to Naples for the sole purpose of seeing her, and being disappointed, he asked her to write ad lat him know what she had been doing and was going to do, and when her future wanderings might leakier. In his own are he asked how it come that tan months attar the tint meeting he did nothing to cultivate the respoadeat's acquaintance ; that if he had entertained soy view of lemonnble courtship towards her, he could have had no difficulty, and there could have been no impropriety in addressing her in correspondence; but he did nothing of the kind : and because in the crane of • correspondence which was thrust upon him he made nee of the most commonplace th,ugh guarded expressions of civility that the most ordinary courtesy could suggest, • conclusion had been arrived at that the correspondence from the outset was one of courtship on his part and with • view to III•rfill I ge. Such a statement was wholly inconsistent with the tone of his very first letter, which was not confined to mess ex • s of guarded courtesy, and in thane that followed the tope was one of increasing warmth and expressive of hope of their meeting. He urged a mote free, or rather, more affectionate tone towards him in her letters. In his second letter be said that he liked her ocevereatioa on board the steamer where they first met too much to sleep, and wished to know her better. The respondent, innply, admitted that she wished to see him again—perhaps to renew her first im pression ; for she firmly believed I. first instinctive feelings, ad, although sometimes obliged to change her opinion, still she invariably returned " toujours I see premieres amours." Hitherto they had addressed each other aa Miss Longworth and Captain Yelverton ; bat in his third letter the appellant began —" My dear Theresa." The respondent continuing through ire ral letters to address him as Captain Yelverton, be objected to her "captain ing and mistress him," stating that he had an objection to that form and fashion, and sab sequently, in a kiad of pet, reviving the address of "dear Moe Lougworth," and expensing his dislike at being called Mr. Yelverton by her, and gave bey bee choice between several of his baptismal rasa The lady then adopts the term at the beginning of her letters "Carissimo Carlo mio," and asked if that would suit him ; to which be rejoins that that form Mather was better. From this it reargued that it wee owing to the proposal of the appellant that the correspondence sasumed a more familiar and • move teller tone. He continually urged Der to write to him. Reference wee then made to an expression of the appellant's is which he speaks of " his intended future," which, it was argued, meant only his personal movements after be left Malta. This the lady took aa referring to his engagement to some lady, and, in the court below, the canner is which eke spoke of it was held to be • device to draw an inimediate avowal from him of affection for herself, whereas it might well be takes as • playful intimation that if such a state of things extend it was hardly consistent with the continuance of the oornapoodeoce between them. His response was to the effect that his future intended was nowhere, and then fol lowed th e perms expressing his dislike to be "captained and mistiest" On this the Lord Ordinary observes that the appellant Is. dealing with this part of the correspoodeoce informed the respondent that be had so " future intended." but wee " fiancé to an arm-chats at the United Service Club," meaning that he was a con firmed bachelor—a more extravagant interpretation urged the learned cruel, could hardly be—the obvious inference being that he desired to make her understand that there was no lady interposing between them mid nothing more formidable than the "arm-chair." Proceed- Mg with his examination of the coneeprdeors the Atter soy-Cereal argued that the dedoctiou from its tenor was that the parties with a mutual inclination towards each other went on in • style of " badinage." natural oars the circumstances, and adopted to conceal the real nature of the feelings which were growing upon them. In a letter of the respondent, when matters had arrived at a point when she desired to test the feelings of the appellant. and conjecturing that the appellant might not be serious or perhaps desirous of besekieg oft the corresponaleime she gave him the opportunity of doing so, by stating that " the cur• taia was about to drop on their sore of action." To whial the appellant, instead of accepting the hint, supposing him to have desired to nese their comminicatioo, wrote to ask "What curtain was going to fall over our scene of action ? Tell me if it is one of those painted ors. which riirig again dinkier the same ecton In new respective rela tionship ;" and he underlined these latter words to indicate as emphatic meaning. The question was whether this new ?arrest:lip was to be that of husband and wife, or of soother kind that virtue repaires and vice hesitates to write about. As any net it was clear that the appellant had no wish to part with the respondent; while it was a far inferior, looking to all the th en mstaoor i that his o• teatime wen not those which had been asserted for him by his arra is the argument. The mat was proceeding whim our report left.l
