A trial of this kind excited Altman naivetesl interest, and the press of France and of England were represented at Brussels, and the defendants, who are the proprietors of the body Tr/ogreph, were mpresentod there, and the plaintiff C..rnplaulell that the defendants had, in a series of letters, which their special correspondent wrote from Brussels to t Lit jolirnal in London, from the beginning to the end. assumed the guilt of the plaintiff, and suppressed the ..:neat bulk of the evidence that was given in his favour, making no allusion to it ; and that even when winlielled .fade ,one of the evidence given in his favour, they did everything they could to destroy its force.

The trial of Themes Edgefry, for conspiring with other persons to defraud the Leeds Banking Company of 106,000/. was to have been resumed thie morning, before Mr. Baron Pigott. at tO o'clock. In consequence, however, of the non-attendance of an a'. derman, it was impossible togo on with the case at the time appointed. After the learned judge had been kept waiting for more than half an hour, he tame into court accom raided by Mr. Under-Sheriff Roche, and said he thought it right to state that the cause of the delay was that Ito alderman was in attendance to act as the second commissioner, which is required by the act of par liament. He said that messengers had been de spatched to endeavour to find an alderman, but without success. He added that este would be taken that such a thing would not occur again, and in the meantime all that could be done was to wait until an alderman cam?. The learned judge then left the court. After some further deity, Mr. Alderman Causton, who was not upon the rota, arrived at the court, and the trial was then proceeded with. Mr. Sleigh then summed up the case for the defendant, and called upon the jury to mall the precise point at issue, and to disabuse their minds of all extraneous matters. The point at issue was substan tially this, whether the defendant with Van Chef, De Tillers, and others, did oonspire to represent that certain hills sent to Mr. Greenland to be discounted were bills of the Meydampeck Forest Company with intent to cheat and defraud. Did it not occur to them, there fore, that they should have had Mr. Greenland in the bus as a witness for the prosecution? He was jus tified in placing before them that Mr. Greenland was the head and front of this offending. Upon his testimony and that of others, the defendant was committed from the inferior court, and he asked why, if he was a witness to truth, he now refused to come forward, and sheltered himself in a foreign country? It was most pertinent to the inquiry that they should have Mr. Greenland present to know whether he was really imposed upon or not, but after the evidence given for the defendant yesterday it was idle to suppose that he was imposed upon, and if he really did know the circumstances connected with the renewal of the bills that had been given by Van Chief, it appeared to him that there was an end of the case for the prosecution. It was possible that a great commercial fraud had been committed by some one, but the question now was whether the defendant was any party to that fraud. He contended that the defend ant had been brought into all this trouble] through Van Chief, and that it was a black and dismal day for him when he first became acquainted with him, as the acquaintance had ended in his entire ruin. The learned counsel then proceeded, at considerable length, to contend that the evidence for the prosecution had failed, and that the defendant was entitled to a verdict, and had not concluded his address when our report left.

That he has been duly rated as an ordinary occupier to all poor rates in respect of the premises made after the paining of thin act. 2.

THE BISHOPRIC OF NATAL. The John Bull publishes the following despatch, which has been addressed to the governors of the Cape of Good Hope and the Mauritius: Downing-street, May 23, 1868. Sir,— In my despatch of 30th January last, I informed you of a report which reached her Majesty's Govern ment that it was in contemplation by some of the colonial bishops to consecrate a bishop to take charge of the diocese of Natal on the assump tion that Dr. Colonic, had been legally deposed, and I instructed you as to the course which you were to pursue in such an event. I have, however, since received from the Bishop of Capetown various communications on this subject, which render it necessary that I should again ad dress you respecting it. His lordship entirely disclaims the idea that he and those who act with him contemplate interfering with any legal rights which Dr. Colenso may have ; he explaine that it is only proposed to colleen ate a bishop who shall perform episcopal func tions for such of the clergy and laity as well in Zulu land and the adjacent parts as In Natal, &c., who may be will ing voluntarily to submit themselves to him. lam in formed also by his lordship that, although the particular title by which such bishop should be consecrated will be a question for the decision of the several bishops of the province, ho does not desire that such bishop should be consecrated by the title of Bishop of Natal, or of any place within that diocese, or by any other title which might be regarded as an infringement of rights purporting to he conferred by the letters patent. Under these circumstances I do not think it necessary that her Majesty's government should interpose any obstacle whatever to such proceeding, or that you should use any influence to prevent it. I should wish you to communi cate a copy of this despatch at once to the }bailor of Grahamstown.

Yesterday morning, being at the Handel Festival Rehearsal, I placed in the hands of a clerk in the Telegraph-office in the Crystal Palace a short inesmige which must be valueless without celerity, and at the same time received from him an assurance that he could read it with out any difficulty (he went over it in my presence), and that it was certain to reach its destinaticm in the City within 40 minutes at the utmost. What was the result? The message was actually delivered two boars and ten minutes after, and was then so full of mistakes as to be scarcely intelligible ! I remained in the building nearly two hours, and had almost reached London-bridge Ter minus when the telegram arrived. I could have walked the distance easily in the time. Could the Poet-office management fail to be an improveiccut ou thii ?—I am, &c., IL SHOOTING SITTOIDE OF A LADY AT SEAFORD.— A very .hocking event has created a profound sensation in the usually _quiet little town of Seaford. Mrs. Amelia Bannon :Mot, the wife of a doctor practising in London, has unfortunately for some tune past been suffering from • disease of the brain which occasionally produore aberration of intellect. She was in the habit of visiting Seaford during the summer, and for the past ten days has been staying at the house of the Wages Bennett, of 7, Pelham-place, in oompenv with her hus band's sister, Mrs. Curter, for a change of air and scene. On Thursday morning Miss Ellen Bennett took some milk and take up stairs to Mrs. Elliot at half-put 6, •it being her custom to take refreehmenta at that early hour. She appeared to be in her usual state of health.

MALenaerrielts OR Tin Tulte.—At a meeting of the Jockey Club to be held on Monday next the stewards will propose the following resolutions :—" Whereas it is expedient that the rules of racing which prohibit defaulters for stakes and forfeits from entering or running horses should extend to defaulters for bets, and to all persons guilty of malpractices on the turf, it is resolved that no person convicted of any fraudulent practices on the turf, and no person that has been reported by the committee of the Subscription-rooms at Newmarket or at Mears. Tat terriall's as being a defaulter in bets, shall be permittefi to name, enter, or run, either in his own name or in that of any other person, any horse of which he is either wholly, or in part owner, for any race whatever." It is also pro. - posed to add the follow ing as a rule of the Jockey Olds : —" If any member of the Jockey Club, or of the New Rooms or Coffee-mom at Newmarket should appear in the published Forfeit List as a defaulter for stakes or forfeits, or be reported by the committee of the Subscription-rooms at Newmarket or at Messrs. Tattersall's, as being a defaulter for bets lost an horse-racing, the stewards shall cause notice to be sent to him that if his default be not cleared by a time to be stated in the said notice his name will be erased from the list of members ; and if a member of any of these clubs should be convicted of fraudu lent practices on the turf, he stud' cease to be a member," The Earl of Zetland has given notice of his intention to move, after the words "practices on the Turf," to add the words "or if any person that shall hereafter become a member of the Jockey Club shall compound with his creditors." It will also be proposed by the stewards that Rule 10 of the Jockey Club, which precludes the stewards from taking cognisance of any disputes or claims with respect to bets shall be so modified as to enable them to act when it appears to them that the interests of the Turf requiretheir mterference. The Sporting Life says that the winnings of The Earl amount altogether to over 10,0001. Last year he won 1 2 085/. ; previous to this week he picked up 1,2871. ; and lance Sunday he has made the grand haul of 7,97ol.—mak ing altogether 10,4421. He was originally bought by the Marquis of Hastings at the Hampton Court sale of year lings for 450 guineas, and has thus reimbursed his purchase by nearly 10,0001.

Colonel Lake, C. 8., Chief Commissioner of the Dublin Police, held an investigation yesterday (Thursday) at the Chief Commissioner's-office, Lower Castle-yard, for the purpose of ascertaining the circumstances of a charge brought against the Hon. Colonel Stanley and the Hon. Lieutenant Villiers. Grenadier Guards, by two police constables named Tierney, R 2 E, and Haddock, 133 E. It apyenred from the statement of the constables that whilst on duty at Haddington-road, between 1 and 3 o'clock on Wednesday morning, their attention was attracted by two dogs which were fi ghting on the road, one of them belonging to Lieutenant Villiers. The constables attempted to prevent the tight, when the officers came up and accused them of having caused it. The constables denied the charge, and Colonel Stanley then demanded their numberx which they gave ver bally, but the officer asked th em in writing. This the constables also did, at the same time walking with the officers in the direction of Beggar's Buah Barracks. On coming near the barrack gate, ono of the officers called to the guard to turn out, which they did, and by the direction of the officers the two constables were taken into custody for being intoxicated. The constables were conveyed into the guard-room, and a despatch sent to the inspector at the Iriehtown police-station, desiring him to send up a party of constables to take t h e two constables into custody on the charge of being drank. Whilst waiting far the arrival of the inspector and his men, the constables allege that when one of them took out his watch in order to as certain accurately the time at which they entered the a soldier matched the watch out of his hand, and in • so he broke the guard chain, and the watch was banded to some other sow er Eventually, the Oasts -I:flesteritsaitths? whole guard assaulted them repeatedly, and them out of the barrack gate into the road, where one of them received a severe wound on the knee, whilst both received several contusions. They then proceeded to the station-house to report the transaction, but on the way they met the inspector and his men coming to look for them. Having told the ins tor the charge and its origin, he returned to the barrack with them and suc ceeded in procuring the names of the two officers who had made the charge. The constables further stated that they were prepared to prove that they were both quite sober at the time of the occurrence. One of the constables was so severely . injured from the effects of the alleged ill treatment m the guard-room, that he has since been under medical treatment. In the evening Colonel Lake proceeded to Beggar's Bush Barracks, in order to have the matter thoroughly inquired into, and a satisfactory explanation given. The result of the inquiry has not transpired.— bile Awn*, Nail. ~EETIIfIM oP SCIEETITIO SOCIETIES FOE THE Asiatic, 3.

TEE NEW AMERICAN MINISTER IN LONDON.— It will be perceived from an Atlantic Telegraph message, printed in another column, that Mr. Remedy Johnson has been appointed minister of the United States to the British Court, and that the nomination has been unani mously approved by the Senate. The new ambassador is better known as an eminent lawyer than as a statesman. He was born in Annapolis, Mary land, May 21, 1796. He was educated at St. John's College in that city, and at the age of 17 began to study law in Prince Georges County, in the office of his father, who was a chief justice of the judicial district of which that county was a part. In 1816 he was admitted to the bar. He has devoted much of his time to the arguing of cases before the United States Supreme Court. In conjunction with Mr. Money Harris, be reported men volume, of the decisions of the Mary land Court of Appeals known as "Harris's and Johnson's Reports," the fled volume of which appeared in 1830, and the seventh in 1827. In 1821 he was elected a date senator, sad at the expiration of hie term in 1826 be was re-elected fora second term. In 1846 be was choose senator, which nice he resigned in 1849, on Wag appeinsd byPreeident Taylor Attorney-General of the United States. On the suc cession of Mr. 'Allmon after the death of President Tay lor Mr. Johnson resigned that office, and renewed the practice of the law. He is a democrat, and was, we is-- lime, one of the senators who voted against the ins peaehmen t of the President. His age, 72, exceeds that ot most am bassadors, although in America years appear one of the qualifications for difficult diplomacy. kr.
