4 DRAMA. ST. JAMEM. Mr. Leicester Buckingham, whole little drama, The Merry Widow, was one of the mat legitimate literary weecenese at this house last season, produced • new comedy bare on Saturday night, tinder the title of The Sifter Lining, which received the most decided approbation of a crowded audience. Like The Merry Widow, the newicomedy "taken from the French," but is dealt with its a way which entitles the adapter to some of the praise usually accorded to el igival dramatista. The French piece—La Vie en Rom, written, we believe, by M. Paul de Kock, jun., sad made popular in Paris some few years ago by Mr Fechter'a acting in the principal serious character—is a thoroughly Parisian drama in five long acts, with an abun dance of strained sentiment and immorality. Mr. Buck ingham's task has been to reduce these five acts to three, to take out all the offensive parts of the action and dialogue. sad yet to preserve the consistency of the chief characters and the clearness and interest of the story. There are many pitfalls in the way of such bold adapters. When the motives which set the chief character in action are weakened for the mike of decency, and the actions, though altered its some cases, are not weakened in proportion, there is a visible want of bar wetly between effect and cause. Vehement passion may be exhibited, but, for the want of that justification which the adapter has taken away, it is apt to appear • little extra. vagant and uncalled for. Characters are kept off the stage for the sake of condensation, and yet have to be alluded to re peatedly in explaining the story, end other characters are retained in f,:11 view who only encumber the scene, and are IPA down in their utterances to the level of supernumeraries. There ere many faults besides these which no one takes taws pains to avoid than Mr. Buckingham ; and The Silver Lining. though not free from • few of these blemishes, is a piece of good, careful literary workmanship. The chief personages of the play are well balanced, and the three nets are so arranged ,that there is no change of scenery between each rising and falling of the curtain. The principal performers were called on at the end of the piece, and Mr. Buckingham was honoured with a similar call. God os a Cucunther still retains its place in the bills, as wall ea Mr. Byron ' s Comic Serino of leaki. ADELPHL The German play of Leah, which was too original a its pastoral simplicity to meet with a general critical wet. risme on ita first production, has nos held its ground at the Adelphi for more Wan a hundred nights. Much of this macaw is f►irly due to the siogular merit of ]ties Bate 11111ell acting in the chid character, and much to the in tensely huniac interest of a play which not even a bed American tr.uislation can spoil ASTLErS. A new romantic drama, by Mr. John Brougham, with the title of the ifighl of Bight; or, the Soul of sour, was performed at this theatre on Saturday. The manner in which the piece has been put upon the stage is deserving of all praise, the scenery and other accessories having been produced with a are and artistic finish not after) met with in the theatres on the southern side of the Thames ; bi:t the story of the drama is confused, and the Meideuts with which it is crowded are too familiar to the frequenter of the theatre to awaken the slightest faith in the reality of the personages of the drama, or in their hazy adventurer. We are bound to report that the audience, which crowded the house in all parte, appeared well satiafied with the new drama,i and testified their feelings by loud calls for the author, which were only appeased by the explanation from the manager that Mr. John Brougham was at that mo ment engaged at the Lyceum Theatre. The pantomime at this house deservedly maintains it, popularity. The beautiful transformation scene in which the dripping naiads, in flowing garments, are made to ap pear horeriog in the midst of continually falling waters, is to us altogether novel, and has not been exceeded in the way of scenic effect by anything that has been produced of late years. The scene of the old Tabard Ina in Chaueeem time, and the comic details, including the real horses, the chariot with the tiny ponies, and the marvelloualy clever perfonning poodles, are no less deservioz of praise in their way. .IM. RUSKIN AT THZ WORKING HENS COLLEGE. Mr. Ruskin met a large gathering of the mem lam and friends of the above institution at the college, is Greet Ormond-street, to deliver& sort of informal lecture, ea Saturday 'main last. This has growo into a custom with him since he has given up • permanent residence la Beglaad. He speaks cm any matters which he may sne akily desire to talk to his old pupils upon, and then holds himself open to any questions which may be asked him upon any subjects whatever. To judge from the crowded state of the lecture rooms on Saturday, and the intermit dis played by Mr. Ruakin's audience, them intellectual treats-- Joe with they undoubtedly are—are highly appreciated by the members of the college. Mr. Bracts said it was always very plea ant to him to come and nod himself surrounded by such sympathetic hem as his old friends in the college presented to him, and explaiaed his long absence by saying how unwell he had been, and bow necessary it had been to him to live where the sky could bo's'n without the intervening smoke which always hid its beauty from Loadoners' eyes. lie had been bard at work too, perhaps too hard for Lis strength, aud he bad had many disimaragementa. He had nsed the best part of his life in the endeavour to make one English painter understood, and be feared his secret had been but small. To this day Tuner was a mystery to his country men, and his paintings were something worse than • mystery—they were a trouble and a bore. Nobody appeared to know what to do with them. They were tint put into Marlborough House, then into the galleries at Kensington and now they are put altogether into a room at the National Gallery, where not one of there mind be seen. The drawings had fared even worse. He had Legged of the trustees of the National Gallery, and almoi.t gonr down on his knees before them, that he might he permitted ri put them into such frame... would dr:into( their being seen. This baring been done, no further steps had been tsken in the matter. Neither the trustees nor the nation could findaplacein which Turner's drawings could be exhinitcd, and they had become mildewed and damaged for want :A proper care during the alterations at the National Gallery. Mr. Ruskin complained that pre-Raphael- Aim, having established the principle that the dignity of • picture depended largely upon its subject, was sow .generating in that direction, and its professore showed signs of forgetting the true dignity which always lies in the conscientious performance of work as such. In architec- ture, though great things were being done in Eugland—lees perhaps in London than in other parts, owing to peculiar mstrietioom nod conditions which might be unavoidable ; and most notably in Manchester, where, beside' the metal ficieut museum, were many noteworthy specimens of the Gothic style—tbe present genenitioe of Eoglishnien world peas away before any true appreciation of the glories of Gothic architecture was arrived at.

THE IMPRESS; 1. MONDAY EVENING, PEW A3Y 1; t A. 1464.: SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. THE GREAT SPRLNG HANDICAPS. TO THE ZDITOI 01 THE ELPIXII. Six, —The acceptances for the Chester Cup being quite as far under the mark, numerically, es were the entries, that event can this year take no higher rank than the Northamptonshire Stakes or City and Suburban Handi cap, which bid fare to take precedence of it with specula tors, if the present state of affairs may be taken se • crite rion, for all parties seem afraid to meddle with it. How ever, that it will eventually prove one of Mr. Topham's happiest efforts to bring a large field of haws together is my firm belief, supposing previous run meg does not bring to light any Ten glaring " good thing," for out of the seventy-three candidates there are not half-a-dozen who can be called really badly ,in now, and should the weather remain open the three-yr-olds will be infinitely more dangerous than they appeared at first sight. That their owners did not feel aggrieved there is a convincing proof in the fact of only a score of the fifty-two entered declining, and eight of these were among the sst 71b to sot 10Ib division ; so that they could not have been struck out because their weights were too heavy, and one of the number, Signalman, was even. favoured, looking at his lest performances. The three-yrolds in the Northamptooshire Stokes, Metropolitan, and Newmarket Handicap have been no letter treated than they were in the Chester Cup sod in the City and Suborbeo. A few have been handled with far grader severity, Blarney being complimented with ist 21b, and Bel Demons) ' with 7st, after the pair had declined their fist 12Ib each in the Cheater Cup; while John Davis. Greenland. The Count, and Lord Zetland, have been used more mercilevily than these,at least 10th each extra beiog put upon them for the mile and a quarter Epsom struggle. Then we have Guardsman and Golden Cross, who have as yet " done nothing " with but fist 101 b and list 91b respectively on their backs ; and with several of the old horses at the head of the list put right out of the race, it is patent that, eves supposiagMr.Topharn may have been too lenient with some Masse in the Chester Cap, Admiral Roos has erred equally as much by being too severe with some who came under his notic, his Metropolitan sod Newmarket Handicap exhibiting as many cases of appa rent severity as does the City and Suburban, in proportion to the numbers entered. The Northamptonshire seems the most even of the whole live handicaps, bat the following table, showing the comparative imposts of those who have excited the greatest difference of opinion, will best display how the three handicappers have performed their duties : Nw i t t b :ll B l.

This was • motion to commit the defeodan., who is a dealer in foreign goods. for breach of an injunction obtained against him in 1858 by the plaintiff. who is the well-known maker of eau-de-Cologne. The injunction in question was obtained in • snit to restrain the defendant from selling eau•de-Cologue in bottles with labels imitating the labels of the plaintiff, and the breach of that isje - iction row complained of consisted in this, that the de fendant had sold within the last few t.nnths proem of eau-de-Cologne in bottles which coloombly imitated those of the plaintiff. The defendant in effect admitted the breach of the injunction, but sated that 't took place under the following caramelises& About the year 1860 the defendant changed his warehourt, and teen his removal several of his clerks and assistants quitted has employ, other persona occupying their situations. The injunction which had been obtained against him baring at the time of his removal become a Matte/ of ancient date, he did Dot on hiring new clerks and maistente recollect to warn them that no traffic le spurious eau-thrCologoe must be allowed on his premises, and hence it was that his superintendent of the perfumery department had been led into the error which savories to this motion. He humbly apologised to the court for *bat bad taken place, and undertook to nee such measure@ in future that an occurrence of this nature should not be repeated. Mr. Roll, Yr. Daniel, Mr. Bsgshaw, and Mr. Hethering ton werein the case. The Vice-Chancellor said that no doubt the plaintiff ought to have a l l duo assistance from the court, yet he could no: but see that there had been shown a greater desire to press on the defendant that to viedicate either the plaintirs rights or the dignity of the court. The defeodant had no doubt iaodered I"maelf liable to some observation, and it was clear that he must pry the costs of this motion. It was proper for the court to consider whether the defendant had acted without we, or whether in direct disobedience to the order of the oourt. Ie the grit case there was no doubt but that the defendant was liable to the civil more quested of his act, via., the payment of all costa incurred through hie centesimal ; in the latter the rights of the plaiatiff and the duty of the court went much farther, and an actual committal to prison must follow. Now, epos consideration of the evidence it appeared that when this injunction was granted six years ago the defendant gave an instruction tto the clerk. not to do anything to infi:rige this injunction. Since then the defendant bad changed his place of business, and hie clerks were altered ; and he ad mitted that he did not renew his instructions. Now upon that statement—and there appeared no doubt that it was tree in substantials—it did not appear that the defendant had acted with anything worse than negligence. It would certainly bathe defendant's duty to take more care in future, or the consequence would be more *oriole. The order of the court would be that the defendant pay all the costs of this motice. COURT OF QUKEN'S BENCH.-JAN. 30. Witinp in Banco. —(Eeron, Justices Blackburn and Mellor.) EN RI ALICE WILLETE.-HABEASCORPUIL This was • very peculiar ewe, exemplifying the power of • father over his child. Lest term • rule nisi fora habeas corpus returnable at chambers was granted, when the father produced the child, and made • return that it was legally in his custody. Mr. Justice Shee upon that re mitted the use to the fulloourt. Mr. Blimps now reeved that the child, who was 11 years of age, should be given up to the mother. Mr. Padget, who appeared for the father, said the return to the Ira was that the child, who wee 11 years of age, was in the custody of the father. and that he claimed to retain her aa her natural and legal guardian. Mr. Keeps admitted that in the first instance no doob. eirs father was entitled to the custody of the child, hut he apprehend. I that where it was shown the father was an improper parson to have the custody the court would take her from him and give her to the mother. Mr. Jastios Blackburn said there were cuss where under soak circumstaaces the court would not mist the father in getting the custody of his child. He waa not aware the coon had gone so far as to take the child from the father and give it to some one else. Mr. Kempe said he could not give his lordship a case in point. Up till recently the mother bad the custody of the child. At the father's request the child urn allowed to viait him, and he still retuned her. He wu an immoral character and en habitual drunken', and the mother was anxious to get the child back. Mr. Justice Blackburn said that milht be so, but the court moat first saw what legal right they had to take the child away from the father. It was not desirable to enter irate family quarrels if they would not assist the case. Mr. Kemp. said he could sot show stronger cases than that the wart bad refired to restore to the father a child lout of hie custody.. . . . . . . Mr. Justice 111;ekburu then asked the learned counsel to slats the utmost the affidavits would show naiad the father in this maw Mr. Kemp* said there were affidavits cm both sides, and arms secusatiowe. The afBdarite showed that the father was as immoral character. That he was a pauper whilst the mother was wall off, sod instead of having the child put to sehool and educated as the cau.har would do he had put her to sere We. Jeetice Bliekbuna said it was anflioieet for the Inter (groom of Chancery, but not the Court of Queen's Borah. The remedy was very simple, for the mother had only to male 101, oo the child to give the Court of Chancery full power over the letter. The immorality of the f ether, mita, he was contaminating the child, wan not • meson for the interfer ence of th , l court. In the POP of " Hakewell v. Hake. well," in the Court of Common Pleas, Mr. Justice Creso -1 well, in giving judgment, said he did not remember a case where a court of common law had interfered with the right of a father to the custody of his children, and no dictum tbs. goes to mach an extent. Where the court was asked to restore a child to the father they would not do it if it appeared to them that the father was seeking to abuse the custody, either to the injury of the child by cruelty, or ex posing it to contamination. All the suggestions in the affi davits now before the court fell abort of the exposure of the cbild to contamination, or her being treated with cruelty. The legal right was in the father, and the child must remain with him. Mule discharged without costs. The Lord GM Jai tie often was eel 'barged in England. and therefore he doubted if the party was pro hibited by the recent statute from going before the grand jery instead of taking the ootues there pointed out. Mr. West said that by the rules of internatiornal law the deck of a British mas-of.war was taken as representing the country to which she belongs. The Lord Chief Justice said what was dove on board such a ship was subject to British law, butlt did not make the high seas a part of &Woad. Mr. West said the remedy of going before a magistrate still existed, but be could not help thinking the great straggle on the other aide was not to let ?he young gentle man know the nature of the evidence that would be brought against him. There would be nu obstacle to the trial. All that was wanted was regularity of proceedings. Mr. Berjeent Ballatitine said he would undertake to supply the defendant with the names of the witnesses and a copy of their evidence. Mr. Chambers said the consent of the parties would not give jurisdiction. The Lord Chief Justice said it was clear the case was owe of great difficulty, and he bad considerable doubt if the case was within the statute. He thought the two first ob jections to quashing the indictment untenable. With regard to any arrangement, the court must see that they did Dot by westing tort unduly prejudice either party. After some further remarks, The Lord Chief Justice seid it was doubtful if this mass offence which brought the mode of proceeding within the 22 and 23 Vic., chap. 17, and he therefore declined to exer t:Sae the summary discretion of the court and quash the in dictment, leaving the defendant to bring a writ of error if so advised. The other lammed judges concurred. Judgment aeoomiluigli COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.--JAw. 30. Sittings in Banoo.—(Before Lard Chief Justice Erie, and Justices Williams, Willes, and Keating.) THISLWILL V. TELTTSTON.—FRESH PI/OG=1:0164 AGAINST MAJOR TELVIINTON. Mr. Downing Bruce (who mut specially retained in the oast) applied on behalf of the plaintiff for leave to proceed against the defendant by filing the declaration, and serving a notice requiring the defendant to plead by leaving • copy of the declaration with Mews. Tippetts, his solicitors, and Mews. Cox and °rosewood, bin bankers, and by post ing the notice in Westminster-hall. The learned counsel said that the action was foneded upon a judgment obtained by the plaintiff, a merchant at Hall. for 73W. 12s. 2d. against Major the Moo. W. Charles Yelvaton, in respect of board and lodging for his wife whilst residing at Hull. The judgment wu recovered in Ireland, whither the major had gone with him regiment, after a verdict bad been returned by • jury. The present application was founded upon the 18th section of the Common Law Procedure Act of 1832. The major was, after much difficulty, served with the writ in Paris on the 2nd of January, and he was required to appear in 16 days ; but no appearance was entered, and as his residence in Park was not known, it was found impossible to serve the declaration. Mr. Justice Willa' inquired if there wee not • writ of error in this ease Mr. Bruce—Not to the House of Lade; that writ of error related to the legality of the marriage ; but in this par ticular case there had been a writ of error to the Exchequer Chamber in Ireland, and a decision there bad been given in favour of the plaintiff. Mr. Justice Willis, after consulting • volume of repot* said that as far as he could understand there had yet been no decision in the Irish Exchequer Chamber, though the proceeding. in error were probably pending. Mr. Bruce said he was instructed that there were no pro ceedings in this case pending in Inland. The - Lord Chief Astir* said that an application like this would be granted if it were shown that the defendant was making away with his goads to defeat his creditor, or in any other equally well defined case. In the present ease. however, the court wax of opinion that there was no sufficient evidence for them to act on. if hereafter it were shown that reasonable efforts had been made to serve the declaration, and that the defendant was keeping out of the way to avoid service, then a good ground would be shown for the extraordinary interference of the court. At present the court did not think that sufficient time bad elapsed since the service of the writ, or that such efforts had been made to serve the decimation as would justify granting the present sppboatioe. Yr. Bruce urged that every possible effort bad Fern made. The wi:t was served on the major whilst be weal walking in the streets of Paris; but it was feared that he had left that city, and that he was possibly now in Constantinople to avoid any further service upon him. The Lord Chief Justice—Well, if you hereafter prove upon affidavit that you have made all necessary efforts to serve the defendant with the declaration, then we will exercise the extraordinary power vested in us and grant your motion. Applicatioo refused. COURT OF EXCHEQUER —JAI! 30 • Sittinp in Balm.— (Before Lora Chief llama Pollock, and %mos Mortis, Chinuoll, and Pigott.) AITORALT-OEERAL V. LiNc Amax - AND TORXBIII3I WAIL - WAT CONPANT.-QUISTIOIT OF INCOM I TAX. This was a special case, stated by order of Mr. Baron Pigott for the opinion of the court. The defeodante and their officers were called ripen in the usual way by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue to deliver • list in order that they mightmsess, wider the Income Tax Act', the duties for the year commencing on the 6th April, 1860, resp:ct of all offices and employments robt held under the de fendants' company, as duties p ayab le under schedule E, as to the provisions of 23 Vic., a 14, and the other acts therewith incorporated. The commissioners at the same time informed them that the list ought to cow premed all the officers, clerks, and servants in the company's employment, whose salaries or wager amounted to 1001. or upwards. The defendants although willing to comply with this requisition as re...,rda such of their officers, clerks, and servants se are engaged at ▪ ual salaries, refused to comply with it in respect to those engaged at weekly wages. The question for the opinion of the court was, whether the defendants were liable to be assessed under Schedule E in respect to both classes of ser vants in their employ. The Attorney- tomal (with whom was the Solicitor• G e▪ Mr. J. Locke, Q.C., and Mr. Ileavan), on the part of the crown, contended that the provisions of gird Vic., e. 14, 'polled to all officers and en-vents of railway companies actually receiving 1001. or more in the year, w hether they 'were engaged at weekly wages or annual salaries. On the other side, Mr. Mellish, Q.C. (with whom was Mr. J. A. Ruseell), submitted that upon the true construction of the statutes relating to tame on property and income they were not liable to be messed under schedule E at to such of their officers, clerks, or servants who were engaged at weekly vegan. The company, he said, did not object to make a return of all their servants whose weekly wages, if employed all the year, would amount to 1006 a year or more, bat whet the commissioners required was that the company should charge themselves for income-tax in respect of those employes, and recoup themselves by making deductions from their weakly wages. Be pointed at the difficulty, incooveni. ewe, and injustice which would arise from with a mode of proceeding, as hardly oee of the mechanics in the employ of the company whose wages amounted to 2/. a-week received 1631. in the year, because he was liable to stoppages sad hoes for breach of duty, and was not paid when absent from sickness or other MOMS; while many of these men were is the service of the company one week and out of it another. The court took time to cossider their judgment. --- COURT OF PF.OBATZ AND DIVORCZ. JAL 30. (Before the Jedge Ordinary.) CORDERT T. CORDIRT AND !ADMAN. Dr. Smoke sad Mr. B.
