A special Court of Aldermen was held yester day for the purpose of further considering the commenice tine at the Secretary of State, notifying the safe delivery of the. Prisons of Wales and the birth of a peace, and what Maps abould be takes by this smut in reference to presenting an address of congratulation to the queen upon the occesiam The LORD Maude presided. It will be remembered that at the court held on Tuesday, • rather warm diacimaion took place among the numilisn present is consequence of a suggestion that was made by Alderman Sidesy that the Court of Aldarmen were Khan dosing their privileges by allowing an address of coogmtu knurl to the throes upon each en auspicious occaaioa to be only voted by the Court of Common Conned. It -vas argued by several tieerbers of Court of Aldermen that, in their po sition 314 magistrates of the City of London, they bed an undoubted right to present a separate addrem to the crown, bet, as the standing orders of the court prevented them from de'ae.ing the matter, the Lord Mayor was requested to fir special court for the purpose, ►tad his lordship ac ecrdingly appointed yesterday at one o'clikik. The Logo M•roe was punctual in hie attendances& the hour named, end severed members of the court were also Freese. The Tows CELLI called over the names of the aldermen at half-test one o'clock, and it was found that there were not sutfudeot aldermen mend to teem a court, 14 being the number required for that purpose. Alderman COPELAND, ILK, complained with some warmth of the neglect on the part of his brethren, and particularly, as he said, of those who 'uy the course they had taken at the previous court, had rendered it Deoemary to call a spacial court on the present occasion. (Hoer, hear.) Be said that, under the circumstances, be felt himself justided in calling upon the Town Clerk to exercise the power vented in him by the standing orders of the court, of *dyer tiros the names of the members who were remelt and mating 11.4 it was impassible to primed to business on account of the absence of the other members of the court Aldermax Stiii- , .‘os seconded the proposition. This led toe rather warm discussioo among the aldermen peaset during which Alderman Rose observed that b the terms of the standing order the name, of the members eficeld have been called over at a quarter past the hear fitted fee the meeting of the court, which was one o'clock. and as this had not been done, Le considered they would sot be justified in adopting the course proposed by Alder s., Copel.md. Sevin other members of the court expressed their views epee the subject, and at length the court was adjoureed amid some waft:l4ou. the Town Clerk icing left to act its the matter acceediug to the legal interpcstation to be pat upon the standing order referred to. Mr. Corns, the newly•appoiated Remembrances, was is atiendawse for the purpose of tekieg the necessary oaths before bis installation to the Alec? but of course as there was so court this could wet be dome.

MITI= V. BROWN. This was an aping from an injunction granted by Um Neater of the Rolls. The suit wee instituted for the per• pose of establishing the right of the plaintiffs, who were the omen of Bermondsey Dock, to have the bow sprits of vessels overhanging the adjoining wharf, which wee owned by the defendant. For some yens previous to 1845 the dock and wharf had been in the ownership of the same persons ; in that year the wharf was sold without say reservation, but before and since 1845 the several owners of the wharf allowed the bow sprits of the vowels in the plaintiffs dock to project over the corner of the wharf. The defendant, however, at the lime of this suit, had commenced building a warehouse which was inteeded to cover the satire wharf. Mr. Highat appeared in court, and it was intimated that warrants would be issued fur the other defendants. _. . ------ MeCusbingion, in statism the case against Mr. Millet, mid that he appeased to prosecute the defendant for various offences defined in the 2nd section of the Foreign Enlistment AM. Mr. HighatWlLlobarged with aiding and abetting certain 11110M1114 eubjecta of her Mejesty, to enlist, and to be employed on board the notonous Confedenite screw steamer celled the Georgia. He should proceed on the tad section of the act, which consisted of four parts. The first part made it penal for any subject of her Majesty ta millet as • soldier or to agree to serve is any warlike or military operation under or is aid of any foreign State. The sexed pert made it petal for any subject of her Ma** to ester the sea service of any foreign State, and he (Mr. ) most ask the court to give particular 'Meatiest to the words "to serve on board any ship or vessel of war, or in sod on board any ship or vemel used or fitted out or equipped for any warlike purpose in the &orrice of or for or under or in aid of any foreign power." The third part made it petal for any sub ject of bar Majesty to agree to go to any foreign State with intent to enlist or to serve as ati officer, soldier, sailor, or marioe, either in bud or sea service for r in aid of any foreign whim whether any enlisting money, pay, or re ward shall have been, or shall actually he given or received or not. The fourth part provided that if any person in the United Kingdom or any state belonging toot subject to her Majesty shall conspire or attempt to engage or procure any person whatever to enlist or engage to be employed as a soldier or sailor, or to go or agree to go or embark to any port for the purpose of aiding any foreign prince, shall be aped or imprisoned according to the discretion of the court. In 1863, said Mr. Lushingtoo, a mead called the Japan was built at Lumberton, and the sole registered owner wee Mr. Thomas Bold, a partner in the firm of doom and Highat, but the vessel was afterwards sold to a foreigner. Towards the end of March the veal was ready for sea, and it was found necessary to abide a crew. She was manned partly from Liverpool and partly from Greenock. At Liverpool several persons were induced to sign articles for the Japan, and they were forwarded on to Greenock through the instrumentality of the def.:admen, being told that they would be engaged for • two yeses' ioi to led from Singapore. Amongst those men am by the defendants were three, named John Stanley, Framer Glazebrook, alias Rivers, and Benjamin Conolly. Os the 3rd of April the Japes left the Clyde on • feigned trial trip, and at eft she was met by another steamer, which towed her to Brest, in France. Here she was armed sod equipped, and a geoGeman named Henry. dressed in the uniform el the Coefederate navy. assumed the command. This Maury called the crew tog-thee told them the venal belonged to the Confederate navy, and asked them to enlist. He premised IW. bounty and 4/. 10a. wages per mouth. Joees wee preesot when these terms were offered by Henry, and agreed to by the mem. Jones was active is inducing the men to sign the articles, and said that he would see the bounty mosey mid advance ;notes paid to their wives. The Confederate flag was thee hoisted, aod the Japan, rechristened the Georgia, went to sea to prey on the commerce of the Federal. last autumn soul. of the crew of the Georgia deserted her at the Cape of Good Hope, and came to Liverpool. They called at the office of the defendants, who, he was Instructed, tried to induce them to join the Georgia spin, saying they should each have 3/. to enable them to get to Havre. These facts. Mr. Lumbiogton argued, would, if proved, show that the defendants had violated the /roil. sloes of the Foreign Enlistment Act, which was • portion of international law necessary for the repose of great states, and for the very existence of smaller mien. The wadi" was, had the defendants brought themselves within the grip of the law. The prosecution was directed by the law offieers of the crown, and the ultimate result must depend upon the most careful scrutiny. Should his case be proved, ' he felt sum that the court would come to the weeklies that the acts of the defendants were contrary to the statute and to the best interests of the country. Benjamin Connolly. the first witness called, said he shipped to March lai . t at the Liverpool Sailors' Horne for the , Japan steamer. He was a coal trimmer. After signing articles. he wens to the office of Massa Jogai and Go., whets be saw Mr. Highat, who told him to come down next day for his advance note. He went and got the note for 21., , and obtained some clothes with the money. Afterwards he west en board the Grommet( steamer, where he again saw Mr. Higbee At Greenock M omit on bored the Japan, and they sailed three or four days afterwards. When they were out • few days they fell in with • steamer, and took her into Brest. They then commenced getting in guns and ammunition irons the steamer, in which Mr. Jones took a " clever part." Me. Highat was not there. Capt. Maury cime on board ant day, put on the grey uni form of the Confederate navy, arid said he was shout to hoist the Confederate tin. He told the men they would have a good ship, and that he would make them all very nom leviable. He said he would give the men higher wages than they bad at Liverpool. Witness asked the captain about prize money. Wiens* did not want to go, bet Mr. Jonas endeavoured to induce him by telling him be would make plenty of money. He, however,, refused to go, though he did afterwards sign an agreement to sail, sad received 10/. bounty from the punier. Mr. Jones wan pre med at the time, and got 0/. from witnem, promising to send to his parent. Several other men signed papers at the same time. They were to be paid at the rate of 41. 10s. per month. He heard Mr. Jones tell the men that they would all get prize mosey ; the Confederate flag was hoisted the earn, evening, amidst the cheers of the crew. and the vessel sailed. Several Federal vessels were soon efterwarde overhauled, some of which were burned. They returned to Francs about two months ago and parted at Cherbourg. He witness) then obtained leave of absence, came to Liver pot and called at Jones's office, where be saw both Jones an d Highat. Jame appeared not to know him, and w i togo g g a ;cl, "You knew me well enough is Femme, when you wanted me to serve under a foreign fiag for you. " e mog said, " Don't make a noise, there w ill be something done for you." Highat was sitting at a desk close by, am: Tun have beard That Wi th . r t h en spoke to 1E 4 ,-4, at the none time showing to m t oo o ci t i zoo popett. 1 1 ,:biit then said.

Mr. Kerslake moved in this case for an order to di charge from custody Mr. Thomas Morton Rag, the proprietor and editor of the Sheerness Guardian, who was committed for contempt of court several weeks ago, the act of contempt being the publication of an article in the Sheerness Cuar dian of the 28th of November (coupled with a report of the proceedings before the local Board of Health, which ap peared oa November 21), in which comments were made oa the conduct of some thirty persons whose imam were given, is having made affidavits in the maw Mr. Kerslake founded his motion on an affidavit made by Mr. Eau (who is at present an inmate of White oreseareet Prison), in which he stated that he had so thought or intention in publishing the articles alluded to of oommitting a contempt of court, and that having discovered that he hada. to be apolocised for his conduct. Hr. ohad also publithed an gawk in his paper of the 26th December, In which be stated that he had no thought of attributing to the affidavit makers more thee a want of due attention and thought, and in whirl, he also expressed his regret at having ovomitted a antempt of court. Mr. Glans and Mr. C. F. Smith opposed the motion on the ground that Mr. R' had made no apology to the vit iates whom he had m aligned . . The Via-Chancellor said he would read the affidavits and the article, and give his decision to-morrow (this day.) (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. Stuart.) 81:1•PrO P. •DAMS. Bacon, q.c., aad Mr. P. T. White, appeared for the plaintiff in this snit, the object of which was to set amide a post-nuptial settlement of his reversionary interest in real (Mate which the plaintiff had made in favour of his wife and children. The settlement in question was dated the 27th of July, 1248 ; and the pro perty which was settled by it was some to which the plaintiff would be entitled for his life cm the deaths of his father and an uncle, both of whom were still Brice. In support of the plaintiff s cue it was said that be had exe cuted the settlement upon the advice of the solicitor of his wife's mother ' • that the solicitor had then told him that if the property which he proposed to settle was sold it would fetch no more, at that time, than 1001. or 2001. ; whereas it was in fact worth about 16,000/. ; that bad he known the real value of the property he should Dot hare settled it as he did ; and that the settlement, bailie in fact one made by an expectant heir, this court would, under all the circumstances of the use, set it aside. It was also said that there was no sufficient consideration for the execution of the deed, although, under the covenant in it. the wife's mother had paid 1,0001. to the trustees upon the trusts of it. Mr. Malin, Q.C., mid Mr. Charles Hall, woo appeared for Mrs. Shafto and Dar children ; and Mr. E. H. Kerslake. for the surviving trustee et the settlement, 1,10(0 not called upon. The Vice•Chanoellor said that iedepeodent of the ques tion of oonsideratioe, tbe bill could not be sustained. There was Do intelligible principle upon which this court could interfere at the instance of a husband to net aside a settle meet made by him in favour of his wife and children. In this cue the attempt was made to sot aside a settlement on the ground that the husband was, when he made it, an expectant heir; but that was no reason for sustaining such a bill. The rules of this court, with re ference to its disconni-Pog mortgages, sales, and dealings by expectant heirs with their reversionary interests, bad no application to the case of an expectant heir who basset. tied his property on his wife and children. His Honour hoped the d■y Dever would come when them rules would be so applied. The bill in this case must be dismissed, but without costa. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-JAN. 15. Sittinp in Banco. —(Before Lord Chief Justice Erle, and Justices Williams, Willa., and Keating.) FORBB V. WAILILEN.-1 The defendant in this case was a butcher, and the plain tiff purchased a piece of meat of him whilst there were several other persons there. The defendant said nothing to her then, bat when she was paring in the evening, he called her and rid, " Be careful ; you ere too lighttlegered; I saw you take • piece of meat, but it was only • penny worth. Take care you do not do so again." The plaintiff applied to • magistrate in reference to proceedings for &Wi der. After this a man named Herring went to the defen dant, when he said that the plaintiff had taken proceedings spinet him ; and added, •• You (Be. ing) were in the shop et the time, you must have seen her take the meat." Another person. a friend of the plaintiff, told the defendant that the plaintiff had taken proceedings aphid him for the slander, and asked him if he had used the words. The defendant said he had, and they were true. The present action was to recover dams/tea for a slender, and at the trial at Guildhall the jury found that Ithe defendant had made the statementa boot fide and without malice ; and they seared the damages at 101. Mr. Joyce now moved for a rule to enter a verdict for the defendant upon the ground that the communication' com plained of were privikled. Toe Lord Chief Justice said that of course no action would lie for what had been said to the plaintiff herself ; sad as to what had been said to Herring it was privileged, because the defendant had a right to tr i up evidence in re ference to the charge made against him. The communica tion, however, to the plaintiff's friend was not privileged, &a d u 4 , , 0n this ground the rule would not bd granted. Rule ref oda.

His object to 'pies to Jones sod Co.'s oSoe oo the return of the Georgia to Frioce. was to get money to enable him to go to Cherbourg, and get from Captain Maury the money due to biro. The next witness examined wu John Stanley, and he generally corroborated the evidence of CansoHy.

The writer of the letter refers to these facts, and after expressing Ibis regret at the manlier in which the English public has been deprived of their money, be states that wishing to vindicate, so far as it is possible on the part of an individual to do so, the honour of his countrymen, he is desirous that a large gm of money at his disposal, and which is stated to be at present in the hands of Messrs.

COTTON GOODS.—MANCRESTIfft, JAN. 1 —Th ere ,„ no change, certainly no improvement, in the cloth market to-day as compared with Tuesday. We do not fled that there is any better demand. The production of cloth is now known to have been a good deal lammed within the last few weeks, and this makes maaufacturem and holders of cloth firmer. Manufacturers, however, who hold soy considerable stock are rather easier to deal with. There is no new feature is the market. Very few orders have been gives out to make goods, such buyers as those are object. is; to wait for delivery or run any risks of oscillation is rarbutprefer to supply themselves from people wh o stock.ln yarns there has also been a very qui e t market, so far, u home trade yarns are concerned. In some cads spinners are reported to have found rather more inquiry, but it has Id to very little business. In shipping yarns there has bees a little more inquiry. What busiswes has been dose has been oddly for Chink ad it has only bees effected by accepting lower prices. For all other export markets business has been flat. The advance obtained on the 31st of December, when there was a erring in prices owing to some speculative purchases, seems now to have almost disappeared.
