The next iubject brought before the court was the birth SI the r0y..1 prinoe. It will Lc remembered that at • former court a communi cation front Sir G.

This could nos then be dose under the standing orders of the court., but the Lord Meyer eonvened a special meeting of the Court of Aldermen far the purpose of taking the subject into further coosideratioa. When ti.v ley arrived, however, Were were not sufficient aldermen present to form a court, and the subject conse quently ilrom ed. Aldermen COPELAND now, after having made • brief allusion the circumstances above mentioned, said that kering considered the matter since the last meeting of the court, lie thought the best course to be taken was to move that. on the present occasion it was not expedient that the Court of Aldermen should present a separate •ddraa to the throne. (Hear, hear.) It would, of course, be un derstood MIL the court by this proceeding did not in the slightest degree give up any of their ancient rights and privilegei, one of which undoubtedly was that the Court of Aldern.en were entitled if they thought tit to present machine's of congratulation to the crown upon such as auspicious occasion, independently of the one agreed to by the other branch of the corporation. (Neer, hew.) Aldermen Rose. M.P., seconded the motion, which was put and untried unanimously. CITY SEWERS COM.VISSIO.Y. The Conimiesioners of Sewers held their weekly meeting yesterday at Guildhall Mr. Deputy De Jersey presiding. lie. Letheby, the medical officer, reported on the state of _'U3 houses that had been inspected during the week, awl he submitted a list of 36 places for sanitary im provement. The markets and slaughterhouses had been duly rigs...tad, and the °dicers bad seized 4,497 Th.. of meat as unfit for homes food. 3,8671h5. were diseased, and the rest was from animals that bad died from accident or disease. The medical officer laid before the court a letter that be had realised from the inspector of meat for the borough of Leeds, informing him that large quan tities of dise.uwel mat were regularly sent from that borough end neighbourhood to the London markets, end stating that on the day the letter was written the carcase of a diseased cow was being forwarded to London by a person likes name was mentioned. Dr. Letneby said, however, he had failed to trace the moat in the City markets, although it might possibly be among that which bad bees seized by the offimrs. and of which the salesmen either could not or would not give the informatioe. He referred to three cases especially, either of which might per tale to the subject, viz., find, when four quarters of beef wore condemned at Mews.

Ia auother rise four quarters of beef were con demned at Mr. Israel's oa the 15th, and on the /Me d..y 4 quarters of beef were condemned at another butcher's, all to negate-market, and in each core the mlearueu either could or would not inform who were the senders, or said their name, wore not known to them. He mentioned the matter in order that it might receive the consideration of the court, and be referred to •cominittee for further Myeetigation. The medical officer also reported that dm Mg the week there were two hedonism at Neergate -1111144t where salesmen had either sold or expired for sale diseased meat.

She is now dead, and John Bridger Oakman Palmer claimed the property as her son. Some of the witnesses were crose-examined in court, and it 7sought ou the pert of the claimant to prove ihat Mr. .1. might have been the father. Mr. Ayrton appeared for the claimant ; Mr. Daffy and Mr. Prendergast for the plainti ff s ; Mr. Osborne end Mr. Cotton for the defendauta. Mr. Ayrton wee heard in reply. His Honour referred, at great length, to the facts, and said that he adhered to the Law as he had laid it down ia " Pinyon v. Bosley," and had to ask himself the question, se in that 01180, whether the evidease consumed his mind that there was any sexual connexion between the husband and wife at a time when, according to the order of nature, the claimant must have been orocreated, and on the whole eel- deuce he was convinced there wu not, therefore the claim must fail. (Before Vies-Chsacellor Sir W. P. Wood.) TNT ZAHL OF BESSBOROUGH TES KARL OP COVENTRY. This snit was instituted for the pure of determiniag what was to be done with certain us fonds which bad accumulated io the heeds of the stewards of Ascot races, under the following circurastance• In the year 1838 it was considered desirable to erect a new grand stand, and for that purpose the then stewards of the course put forward • scheme for raising the necessary funds. The first scheme fell through, but the 'mood, which war mere fortunate, was based upon the following prospectus " For the batter accommodatiou of the numerous mean to the Ascot races it is proposed to erect a Urge and ONOZOO. diens stand on a commanding site of the race-coarse. The building will be similar in its general plea to that erected at Goodwood, and will be opened to the public at the meeting I in 1839 by the name of the Ascot Grand Stand. The trustees are anxious to impress on the supporters of this undertaking that it is not designed as a mere commercial speculation, for while they are anxious to offer additional convenience to the visitors they bare an ulterior object, that of increasing the fund in aid of the rams. For the completion of this undertaking a sum not exceeding 10.0. V. will be required, which it is intended to raise in bonds of 1001. each, secured on the building, and Natio' • yearly interest of 5 per out. I until redeemed at pm. It is further proposed that five of these bonds shall be annually redeemed with the proceeds of the stand, and that after dee payment of the interest cm the outstanding loan and the incidental expenses the surplus shall be annually appropriated, one-third as a boas to the existing bondholders, ad the other two-thirds to the ma tes. for the benefit of the races. In addition to which a tradeable admission ticket will be given to each bond to be available during the existence of the lease." It will be seen that the prospectus proposed to deal with the pro fit& in thirds.,appropriating one-third to the existing bad holders, the remaining two-thirds to be applied for the purposes of tie races, while it made no rainier' se to what was to be done with the one-third after all the bondholders bad been paid off. A lease of part of Ascot Heath was taken, and a deed of settlemeat drawn up for carrying out the intention of the subscribers, and the deed copied with grest care and faithfulness the blunder per petrated by the prospectus, and so left a Mate of things certain to arise numaided for. In due cane of time all the boodboldsrs were paid, and the question arose as to what was to be dose with this third. To settle this we. the object of the present Mr. Bolt, Sir H. Cairns, the Attorney-General, Mr. Giffard, Mr. Burke, and Mr. Eddie were in the case. The Vice-Chancellor said that die result which had arias. was no doubt quite overlooked by the originators of the scheme, but there could be little doubt, taking into con sideration the terms of the original prospectus and of the deed of settlement founded thereat, that this must be takes to be the case of a resulting trust, and the decdszatioe which the court must make would be in accordance with that view. COURT OF QUZEN'S =NOM -JAN. 19. SECOND COURT. Sitting ►t Nisi Prior.—(Before Mr. Justice Shea sad a Commas Jury.) , _ GIBSON r. BUNT& -PICTURE ►UCTIONS. _ _ . Tbe plaintiff was an attorney practising at Clielmidord,and the defendant wu an anctioiteer carrying on business in St. Paul's-churchyard, and the declaration stated that in con 'equines of the fraud and misrepresentation of the defendant the plaintiff was induced to purchase certain petunia under the impression that he wee purchasing the works of mat muter,. The defendant pleaded, first, a denial of the plain tire allegations, and secondly, that the pictures were the wash of the artiste mentioood in the catalogue. Mr. Brett, Q.C., and Mr. Joyce, were owns,' for the plaintiff ; Mr. Huddleaton, Q.C., and Mr. Barnard, for the defendant. Yr. Joyce, in opening the case foe the plaintiff, said the action was brought to recover 1584 odd, which the plain- tiff had paid the defendant foe pictures in the month of May last. The learned counsel characterised the mode in which the defendant carried on business as notbirg more than • timid • snare. Pictures were exhibited in the windows, people stood about who looked, to all appearance, like bidders, and as soon as • stranger cams into the shop the tale commenced, and picture* were not the only articles that were knocked down, but frequently the victims them salves. At the close of the plaintiff's case. Yr. Huddleston submitted that there was no prides°, to go to the jury of fraud or combination betimes the parties at the shop and the defendant, or that the pictures were otherwise than that deuribed. As to the value they were stated to be but little lees than that given for them by the plaintiff. The learned Judge overruled the objection. Mr. Buddleston, in addressing the jury for the de- Indent, alluded to the difficulty of overcoming the prejudice that generally at drat existed *here fraud wes suggested. And he instanced the derisive laughter with which he was meted when he said that it was a chugs of fraud made against a respectable tradesman in aripport of his proposition. The plaintiff complained that five of the pictures were not painted by the autism repro seated ; but the moment that was knows to the defea- Mutt be furnished both their IMAM and their addresses to the plaintiff, and tbey VIM all is court to state that they bad painted the pictures in question. What, be asked, did this young attorney want of pictures, tad did they believe that he was such an MB to be imposed U:ros as lie bad dvacribtid. its defendant carried vs nameable bullpen, and all who entered the auctioa•room were requested to azamine the pictures for themselves, end not be led away by the representations of others in the room. The leaned counsel then observed that the plain tiff's wit eues bad put a much higher vales upon many of the *Wogs than the plaintiff had himself gives for them. There had been no evidence of fraud, and with regard to the palatines he would call the artists who had painted them, and also the defendant sad his son, in proof that there was nothing does other than what was fair and tradesman like throughout the whole liminess.

A good deal of evi dence was taken yesterday, tending to inculpate the two prisoners in the robbery. A sum of money supposed to have belonged to the deceased was found in the possession of the elder prisoner— and the following statement was brought forward as having been made by the Tower prisoner since he has been in custody. 'We did meet Carrell (au of the witnesses), and he told us there was a moo lying at the bottom of the hill, and whom t w o e u r ed to the bottom vs saw him, and 'topped.

COURT OF RXOREQI7RR.-JAN. 19. Sitting in Banco. —(Befer• Loud Chief Bann Pollock, and Barons Martin, Mamma., and Pigott.) 'A MAKER AND OTHIRB V. WHITAKER. This was an action up= a prousimoryoote, brought by the plaintiffs as trustees and committee of a Primitive Methodists' Sunda.7-school Society, established in 1645, at Haalingdean. The object of the society wu to provide a children s club and sick fund, and one of its rules was that all the officers should be members of the Primitive Methodist persuasion. At the trial which took placate Liverpool before Mr. Justice Mellor, a verdict was returned for the plaintiffs, and last term Mr. Temple, Q.C., obtained a rule to set aside that verdict, sod enter a verdict for the defendant on such issues ea the court might think right, or to enter a Donlon. Mr. Mellish, Q.C., and Mr. Jobs Russell now showed reuse against the rule. It appeared that John Whitaker, who wee the first treasurer of the society, received in that capacity a sum of 80/., and being unable to refund, he, is conjunction withothers,gave a promissory note for the amount to the society as security. Upon the death of Whitaker, it was proposed, in September, 1844., that his son William should be appointed in his place, but no formal proceeding for that purpose was taken until the following November. Os the sth of that mouth a meeting was held, at which as alteration took place respecting the proposed appointment, it being objected that William Whitaker was not a member of the sect of Primitive Methodists, and therefore was in eligible for the office. In consequence of this difference a very barge majority of the member seceded, taking with them all the books, papers, and the promissory Dote, leaving only the committee of five and about forty-five 1 members faithful to the old society. The persons thus m anaging in June, 1861, registered the society under the Friendly Societies Act as the "Primitive Methodists' Sun. day-school Society," and ultimately brought this adios to recover the amount of the promissory note. The learned gentleman now contended that the persons who remained were really the governing members of the old society, and were in that character entitled to the amount due upon the note. The residuary body continued to adhere to the origi nal rules of the society, whereas the act of the majority ia tiondiag was a violence of those roles, and those remain however, small in number, must be treated maths en. istiag society. 0; the Cher side Mr. Temple, Q.C., and Mi. Kaye sub- witted that the (Mom and parsons remising did not »- present the old society as it was ocewiituted when the mote wen even by the elder Whitaker. The court. upon the cosoluaion al the arguments, env sesta that the declaration should be anmadsd, end gave the f=ttline to onsider whether they would amend before was delivered.
