I IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.—Tut 1"I , Nov. 21 . IN the House of lamp,' yestvriia; the reply of her Majesty to the address in answer to the speech from the throne was brought by the Karl of Tankerville. The house adjourned at twenty minutes after 5 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TIIUL , DAY, Nov. 21. is the House of CuNIMuN , ., ye=oerday, Mr. CORRY stated, in reply to Mr. Watkin, that the man Maguire, one of the prisoners convicted of the recent Fenian outrage at 31aneliester, and who was sentenced to death, who has since been uncon ditionally pardoned, but who had been nevertheless dismissed from the marines, has been restored to the serv ice. Mr. 11.titov obtained leave to bring in a bill to ameud the Metropolitan Streets Act. 1867. That act. he said, had been found to operate with great injustice on persons who earned their livelihood in the streets. The bill enacted that the section in the act which prohibited obstructions an the streets should not apply to costernion gers. street hawkers, or itinerant traders so long as they carried on their trade in accordance with regulations laid down bytheCommissioner of Police. Mr. M toIUIRE made another appeal to the Re venant:eta to reprieve the Fenians now under sen tence .4 death at Manchester. Doubt, he said, had been thrown on the verdict by one of the pri soners convicted having since been pardoned, and by the prosecutions against a second batch of prisoners having been abandoned. Then, there ! was en old decision which would reduce the offence from murder to manslaughter if the warrant under which Om prisoners were rescued were illegal, and there was a doubt whether it was legal. On these grounds he asked the government not to perpetrate legal murder. Sir P. O'BRIEN seconded the appeal, because be thought there ought to be a further judicial inquiry__ _ . Alr:FAwerrr. viewed Fenianism as a fooliah,and, therefore, a wicked conspiracy, but the execution of these men would send a thrill of horror through biro and thousands of others. By yielding to this appeal government would do more than they had hitherto done to earn the good will and gratitude of the Irish people. Sir G. BOWYCR, speaking in the same sense, re marked that the United Kingdom was the only civilised country in the world where the right of appeal in criminal cases was - not absolute. Mr. Serjeant GASELEE thought the country would not be sstiafied unless they had the decision of the judges on the legal point which had been raised. Sir C. O'Loghlen, Mr. Bagwell, and Mr. Rear-1 den addressed the house to the same etii3ct. Mr. HARDY said this discussion had placed him in a painful position but as he understood the question which Mr. Maguire wished to raise was not the merits of the case, but the legal question, the hon. gentleman wished him to take an illegal course, which he should do if he were to show such a contempt for the judges who tried the case, after they had taken upon themselves the responsibility, as to refer it to another tribunal. Mr. Justice Blackburn had consulted the judges,' and from no single judge had he received an ad verse opinion from that which he and Mr. Justice Mellor had formed. Be could not interfere with' the execution of the sentence on that ground. Mr.M.Cassi sass contended that it wasnot illegal to refer the matter to the judges. Formerly it was the practice for the sovereign to take the ad vice of the twelve judges as to whether mercy should be extended. Mr. GLAD:mire did not see that the course the Home Secretary was asked to take would be illegal, but he thought the house ought to have the opinion of the Attorney-General. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said it was formerly the practice for the Crown to ask the opinion of the judges when there was a doubt, but that had been abolished since the act giving an appeal in case the presiding judge saw reason for it. The question was argued at considerable length at the trial before two judges, who decided that there was nothing in the objection, and since then Mr. Justice Blackburn had consulted the other judges, who concurred with him that there was no doubt in the law. Parliament, he thought, ought to ac cept that decision. Lord RoYSTON brought up the Queen's reply to the address in answer to her Majesty's speech, and the house adjourned at twenty minutes past G o'clock. FERN - DALE COLLIERY EXPLOSION. MERTHYR TYDVIL. WCIMILYDAT. On Tuesday twenty more bodies were brought up the pit, and on Wednesdeytwenty-three ; these, with three who have died from injuries, make a total at present of 148 lives lost. It is known that twenty or thirty still re main under great falls in the extremity, and these are expected to be met with in the progress towards clearing out the west district. So in all probability by Saturday night the huge grave will have given up all its dead, All lb. bodies lately brought up are absolutely rotten. In the coarse of exploration the engineers came alien a most sad dening spectacle—a father and son locked in each other's arms, and in the act of kissing each other. So firmly were they united that the arms had to be broken ere the bodies amid be separated. On Wednesday several lamps were fiend with the tops screwed off. Some lamp-keys were also discovered, and one of these was actually secreted in the crown of a cap. It is well known that taking keys into the pit is a puulakable offence ; but what will not these leckleas colliers do to increase their yield of coal ? Many meow' imagine that the sole object of opening • lamp in the pit is to enable the collier to smoke ; ' but such is not the case. The closed lamp, with its gauze covering, yields such • dim light that it is difficult to work with freedom; and hence the necessity of increasing the yield to get extra pay, perhaps sadly needed, is the main temptation. Reference having been made in the Daily NM'', by a correspondent to the neerssity for getting a fund raised in London, we are authorised to state that the owners of the pit provide temporarily for the be-1 reeved, but it is not expected that a permanent provision can be made. The sufferers were not all Welshmen, nor were they people of the immediate district. Many were Englishmen, and some from Yorkshire and Derbyshire. If a young man quarrelled with his sweetheart or with his parents, or became dimatistied with his old place of employment, the goal, in almost every case, was the secluded vale of Ferndale. Thomas I:eynolde was, we believe, the sole survivor who was Actually in the very heart of the explosion. and he has given a striking description of what we may call the closing scene of the horrible tragedy.

The sheet of plate-gam shivered to pieces, and the horse was cut and torn on the chest and legs in a frightful manner. The animal kicked and lashed inside the shop, the cab outside preventing him front breaking away. The blood poured from its body on to the goods in the window and the pavement outside. With great difficulty the horse was gut out and miaowed to a blacksmith's shop in the same road. There had been no fare in the cab, and the driver escaped uninjured. A farrier sewed up the horses wounds in front of the smith's shop, hut at about half-past eleven o'clock the stitches gave way, and the blood peered out afresh. Just at that moment • gentle-, man, followed by his servant, rode past. The two horses took fright, reared, and threw their riders on to the road. way. The gentleman escaped with nothing mon serious than a severe emanation, hut the servant was kicked by his horse while he lay on the ground. The gentleman held on to his bridle, and his horse dragged him along for sonic ' yards, bet the police and the crowd soon rescued him. The servant's horse dashed off down the road, but was giorlbefore further mischief was done. e dtertisement.] HoLulwar'N Oncraturr AND PlLL....—Auttimu Is usually the semen when coustitatioaal weak. news develop themselves.

Various individual efforts are being made for the relief of at least a rortion of the prevailing dis tress' but the results are far from satis factory, nor will they ever be otherwise until a proper and efficient general relief committee be appointed, as was the case last winter. This, we believe, is now being done. The indiscrimi nate charity occasionally dispensed in certain parts of the district is wholly thrown away, the idle, dis solute, and undeserving being relieved in common with those whose poverty is not of their own making. It should, however, be mentioned that a large proportion of those resident in Cubitt Town and other parts of the island are but slightly affected by the prevailing distress, being fully occupied in the neighbouring docks, or in the various chemical and other factories which abound in the island. The distress is confined wholly to j the ship-building operatives and those dependent on their labour. There appears to be a general im- I that were the rate of wages in the ship building trade slightly reduced employment might be found until better times returned, it being manifestly the interest of the ship-building firms to keep the artisans together as much as possible. The unionist feeling existing among the more highly skilled classes of mechanics prevents, how ever, any such idea being entertained, although the less skilled class of workmen, who, as a class, have no trades' union amongst them, are not unwilling to make a temporary sacrifice to avoid a greater. These latter are entirely dependent on the action of their more skilled brethren. The most popular project for relieving the prevalent distress is that relating to memorialising the government to allow one or more of their ships to be constructed in the island yards. it is admit tedly but a palliative measure, experienced ship builders dubiously shaking their heads when the idea is mentioned ; still the popular faith in its efficiency becomes daily more strong, and may yet find vent in public meetings and deputations to the government. To us it seems that if the shipwrights and other operatives relaxed the stringency of their trades rules, and allowed freer play to the action of capital, it would not be long before the ship-building industry of the island would begin to revive, and bringemployment to those now standing in enforced idleness. But whether this be done or not, we must not allow these people and their families to starve. Kitt' intelligence. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir W. Page Wood.) WIPLOOON V. BAUM& This was a mit instituted by Mr. Lamplough, chemist and druggist, of No. 113, Holborn, for the purpose of re straining the use by the defendant, who is a retail chemist, carrying on business at No. 94, St. John-street-mad,lsling ton, of the word " Pyretic," with reference to any eats or saline preparation., medicine, mixture, or powder not manufactured b y . the plaintiff, or of any word or words only oolourably differing from the term " Pyretic Saline," or " Pyretic Salts." The plaintiff also asked to have de livered up to him all labels in the defendant's possessi on having the words " Pyretic Salt," " Pyretic Salts, or " Pyretic Saline," printed or stamped thereupon. Mr. Lamplough claims to have been, in 1833, the inventor of a re pparation of certain salts which he calls " lamplo= Pyretic Salts, an effervescing aperient and tea Saline ;" and his case is, that hts preparation (which has been widely adver tised) having attained great reputation, especially in cases of fever and cholera, has been distinguished by a name which may now be con sidered as a term of art, and as such entitled to protec tion just as the word " Anatolia," as applied to liquorice, wee treated by this court se having the nature of a trade mark. He complains that the defendant, after having been for some time • customer of the plaintiff for his " Pyretic Salts," and having acted as his agent, has Irina, ceased to purchase from the plaintiff, and is now selling a different and inferior preparation, by the name of " Balmer's Pyretic Salt." Mr. Drew, Q.C„ and Mr. Dundee Gardiner appeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. Willoock, Q.C., and Mr. One:knell for the defendant. _ _ _ _ _ _ . The counsel for the defendant contended that the word " Pyretic" was open to the whole world, and that the plaintiff could claim no property in it. It was admitted that the article in question was never patented ; hence it was said the defendant has • right to sell the same thing as the plaintiff professes to sell, and to sell it by the name by which it waacommonly known. From one of the exhibits put in by the plaintiff the fol lowing extract was read, and occasioned some amusement in court :—" The buffaloes in the interior of America suffer from fever, and instinctively seek the vivifying draught of the salt lakes. Wild by nature, and shunnuag the haunts of man when in health. et this period, wasted by burning fever and thirst , they seek the relief Pro vidence has provided for them in the abounding salt lakes of the country, of which, after partaking freely, they recover their natural healt h, and return to their native woodland pastures with renewed vigour. Ethan man, the great master of all, The only insensible prove? No ! Lamplough's Pyretic Salta are appreciated by thou minds." At the close of a long discussion, The Vice-Clutnoellor observed that the plaintiff's state ment that no other medicine than his bad been known for twenty years as " Pyretic Salts" was certainly unanswered; and said that whilst he was very clear as to the defendant's demerits, he was not by any reams so convincedof the merits of the plaintiff. Severalpoints hadbeen, as it were, sprung upon the plaintiff in the course of the argument, which he must answer before he tumid be considered entitled to any relief, and which he ought to be allowed an opportunity of explaining. One was as to certain passages in some of his advertisements, which were ingeniously worded so as to convey to the mind of the reader the impression that Dr. Stevens had really recommended his preparation as medicine. Another was as to • statement that out of 465 prisoners in Ooldbath-fields Penitentiary, 461 hadrecovered from cholera and other diseases by the woof the plaintiff's preparation. A third was as to the use of Dr. Stevens's name in the printed wrapper. The mart no doubt, as must be often observed, was compelled every now and then to protect all sorts of absurdity, but it could not be called upon to assist absolute falsehood. The motion was directed to stand over to the first seal day after term. BAIL COURT.—Noe. 21. Sittings in Banco.—(Before Justices Blackburn and Shee.) This was the first of the four last days of term,and their lordships sattoday in banoo, to dispose of rules and motions horn the Queen's Bench.

The rule states th►t the cases set down for hearing in the Bail Court shall be called on peremptorily, and if no counsel appears the cases shall be struck out. DISTRESS IN THE ISLE OF DOGS. To the majority of Londoners the Isle of Dogs is a perfect terra incognita, yet in no portion, perhaps, of the eastern metropolitan districts is the heavy pressure of hunger and want more severely felt at the present moment than in the unattractive loca lity on which the above canine appellation has been bestowed. For the information of those who have not visited the island, we may mention that it con sists of a rather extensive tract of low marshy ground, largely intersected by open drains and stagnant ditches, and bounded on three of its sides by the muddy waters of the Thames, the fourth side being formed by the various basins collectively forming the West India Import and Export Docks, which constitute a kind of artificial barrier between the island and the densely-populated neighbour hoods of Limehouse and Poplar. There are two roads leading into the island. Of these, one com mences near Limehouse Church, the other at Poplar. A steamferry also affords a ready means of communication between the lower , parts of the island and Greenwich, on the opposite i shore. Until within a comparatively recent period the place was but thinly inhabited, except in the I neighbourhood of Millwall, on the western side' of the island, near Limehouse ; but the remark able development of the iron ship-building trade in this country during the last few years led to the establishment of large ship-building yards at different points on the river shore of the island, thereby occasioning a very considerable influx of skilled labour from various parts of the kingdom. This immigration of labour continuing on an ex tended scale, it became necessary to provide suitable house accommodation for the new work men and their families. The greater part of the island, being flat, marshy, and situated below the ! high-water level of the Thames, was by no means the most suitable for building purposes ; bat it was necessary, for the convenience both of empinYers and employed, that the workmen should reside as near as possible to the scene of their labours. Hence the erection of Cubitt-town, on the eastern side of the island. The general activity of the iron ship-building trade displaying no signs of diminution, the town rapidly became augmented both in size and population. Building opera tions were carried on in all directions with great vigour ; new and spacious streets sprang, as by magic, into active existence ; shops carried on a thriving trade ; a church and several chapels, toge ther with a mission room or two and several schools, supplied the religious and educational wants of the islanders ; and at one time it really seemed as if every trace of grass-land would speedily disappear beneath the never-ceasing encroachments of bricks and mortar. Suddenly there came a pause. The disastrous , financial panic of 1866 instantaneously paralysed, as by a single blow, the whole ship-building in dustry of the island. For ktime sanguine, although fallacious, hopes were entertained that, at the worst, must of the artisans would still remain par t:ally employed ; but as the cold, dreary winter months began to make their unwelcome appearance the unfortunate men were compelled to realise the bitter hardships and sufferings which, to the very last, they had fondly anticipated they would be enabled to avoid. We are, urfortunately, but too familiar with the saddening story of their terrible privations during the earlier months of the present year ; how they pawned or sold their furniture before they would accept parochial relief ; how numbers of them grimly but determinedly kept the tale of their sufferings to themselves, rather than be compelled to drink of the bitter and detested cup of gall in the shape of compulsory refuge in the workhouse ; and how, at last, cowed and down-spirited, they flitted here and there like misty shadows amid the cold and darksome fogs of January and February last. The Lancashire opera tives, in the midst of their great affliction, never exhibited more patient endurance, more manly resignation than did these rough-handed, iron limbed, and sturdy artisans. Their savings and trades funds were rapidly consumed, most of their tools and clothing were either pawned or sold, and every available resource became exhausted : yet still these men bore their fate in uncom plaining silence. But for the prompt and energetic action of the various parochial and other local bodies, assisted largely by the ever-ready liberality of the public, very many, some hundreds perhaps, must have perished of sheer cold and hunger. When spring arrived without bringing the anticipated improvement in trade, considerable numbers of the workmen made such preparations as they best could for removing themselves and their families from the ill-fated island, and seeking work elsewhere. A few, taking advantage of a grant of 11001. voted by the parish of Poplar for that purpose, emigrated to Canada and other British colonies. By the time that the summer had passed away the neighbourhood of Cubitt town began to exhibit unmistakable indications of the swift progress of the depopulating movement ; and now that the winter mouths have fairly set in, the appearance of the place is both significant and distressing. The various shipbuilding yards, with one or two exceptions, are utterly deserted and silent, being occupied only by the few men entrusted with the care of the different workshops and expensive ma chinery contained therein. The numerous forges are cold and lifeless, the powerful rolling mills devoid of motion, and the gigantic steam-hammers sullenly resting in enforced idleness. All is stag ration and despondency. The scene in the town itself is yet more depressing. Here we find whole streets of houses completely untenanted. We pass residence after residence in which no signs of life are perceptible. At the lowest computation there must be several hundreds of empty houses in the town. These habitations are chiefly of a most substantial character, and in prosperous times pre sented an exceedingly comfortable and well-to-do appearance. Their present aspect is, however, satiny disheartening, possessing no parallel in this country, unless it be at Macclesfield, where the silk weavers' quarter is becoming completely de ' serted. Everywhere we notice in the dust-covered windows how the neat Venetian blinds, with which they were uniformly furnished, are dropping to pieces, while outside the spacious areas are be coming green with damp, the thin stucco is peeling from the doorways, the brickwork crumbling into ruin, the woodwork rotting into tinder, and the once smart iron railings in front of the houses becoming sunken and bent. Still more ominous is the large number of closed shops. Whole rows of shops, once doing a busy trade, are now des pairingly shut up. In one street we perceive • largeestablishment empty and deserted, the three golden balls in front of the building indicating its former use as a pawnbroker's. Near this is a large public-house where, some few days since, the whole of the furniture and other effects belonging to the landlord were disposed of by auction. When the publican and the pawnbroker can neither gain a livelihood, the condition of the mechanics must in deed be deplorable. The shops which remain open have for the moat part a poverty smitten aspect, ! and look,as they really are, but the shadowy ghosts of their former selves. The solitude of such thorough- j fares as East Ferry-road remains undisturbed by the hoarse cry of the coatermonger, for even the iti nerant vendors of cheap fish and vegetables receive little encouragement in their attempts to dispose of their stock in trade among the penniless inhabi tants of this part of the island. The falling off in the prosperity of the place is illustrated by the statistics of the steam-ferry opposite Greenwich, which now conveys a daily average of 800 pas seng% re, as against the usual number of 1,500 to 2,000 in more prosperous times. The gin-palaces, too, have a dingy appearance, and seem almost deserted. Most remarkable also is the large num ber of surgeons and chemists who practise their vocation in the neighbourhood. The number of distressed families is estimated at 2,000, but there are many who refuse to apply for parochial relief. They seem to regard it as a degradation from which they can never recover. "If I accept pauper relief," said one respectably attired woman, " I shall remain a pauper all the rest of my life." To do them justice, the parochial authorities seem disposed to act considerately to such people, but their position is one of much diffi culty, for although the pours-rate is nearly two- THE CONDEMNED PENTANS. A large out-door meeting was held last evening on Clerkenwell-green to consider the fate of the four con demned men in Manchester. Two waggons, placed in dif ferent portions of the open space, were used as platforms for two audiences, and beyond this no preparation what ever was made. Not a policeman was to be seen, but it was rumoured, and, indeed, openly stated by one of the speakers, that a large number of constables and a body of soldiers were reserved in the adjacent House of Detention. At seven o'clock there were about 8,000 persons massed around the waggons ; in the course of an hour they were doubled, and when two processions, which came while the meeting was proceeding, had added themselves to the general body, there could not have been fewer than a gathering of 20,000. Many of these were men grimy and unwashed from the occupations they bad just left, and the large proportion were evidently respectable artisans. From the first the crowd was pecu liarly quiet and orderly, and the usual methods of whiling away the time on such occasions were for once dispensed with. Even the gamins who hung upon the lamp-poste and clung to the railings forgot mischief, and played no tricks. During the speeches the applause was sparing and discriminate, but always hearty. Mr. Clegg, who took the chair at the meeting on Saucily, again pre sided, and opened the proceedings by stating their object, and by referring to the recent proceedings ►t the Home office, for which he insisted Mr. Hardy was alone to blame. The chief speech was delivered by Mr. Finlen, who appears to be the leader of the movement. Fenianises he declared to be another name for patriotism, and Irishmen he said had experienced at the hands of a callous, brutal, bloody, and alien aristosracy injustice and outrage. He also defended whet wee done on Monday at the Home-office, on the ground that that building was a public place, and, like the officials who occupied it, maintained by the people ; he stated the determination of himself and friends logo to Windsor, and try to present a memorial to the Queen, and caused prolonged cheering by announcing th►t should the condemned men after all be executed, a monster funeral procession would march through London on Sun day, headed by a braes band playing the Dead March in Caul, and with black banners, upon which were inscribed a harp, a shamrock, ►nd the names of those who had suffered the extreme penalty of the law, and who were the " victims of our government." Another part of this pro gramme was the delivery of a funeral or►tion "on account of thole men's murder." Before he eoneloded Mr. Finlen told the meeting he had been dismissed from his employ ment in consequence of what he did and said on Monday at the Home-office. The other 'peelers for the most part repeated the arguments and illustrations used at the Sunday and other meetings, the more temperate question ing the legality of the execution, pleading the extreme youth of Allen, and the persecution all Irishmen had suffered from the English government, and urging that the offence for which they were doomed was purely poli tic►l ; and the more violent denouncing the aris tocracy, and predicting much future bloodshed. One of the speakers spoke of the Queen as " the good Queen," and finished the sentence by exclaiming, " Would that I could hear the cry go through the land, ' The Queen and the people, and down with the bloody aristocracy."' Another speaker—Mr. Bradlaugh—.aid we were on the eve of a great crisis, and that millions of our brother-subjects were about to be driven into the wont kind of civil war by the taking of there men's lives. The same speaker called upon every one in the meeting to pen a petition with his own hand and present it to the go vernment, so that in the future they might be so many bills of indictment against them and their policy. It was resolved to present to the Queen the memorial adopted at the open-air meeting on Sunday, and declined by the Home Secretary on Monday. This having been done by the passing of two resolutions, the proceed ings terminated. The work of erecting barriers in New Bailey-street, Manchester, on the side where the execution is to take place, was commenced yesterday, and is progressing rapidly. The timber employed in their construction is of great thickness, and will be sufficiently strong to resist anything short of superhuman pressure. The barricades within which the police will stand will be so placed as to keep back the spectators towards either end of the street, and barriers twelve feet high will be erected across Stanley. street, and at the junction of Stsnley-street with New Bailey-street, with a door to admit the magistrates and officials, and to permit the egress of artillery stationed within the enclosed part of New Bailey-street, if it should be necessary. A proclamation from the corporation of Salford requests all peaceably disposed persons not to be present, so as to reduce as far as possible the dangers likely to arise from the presence of a large crowd. The prisoners have the advantage of spiritual comfort from priests of their own religious persuasion, and the Rev. Canon Cant well and the Rev. Mr. Gadd are in daily attendance at the prison. They appear to be quite resigned to their doom. MANCHESTER, THURNDAY NICHT. A great meeting has been held this evening at the Corn Exchange in favour of • commutation of the sentence passed on the Fenian prisoners now lying in the gaol here. The hall was crowded by a most enthusiastic and orderly audience. The chair was occupied by the Rev. R. W.lleCaul, F.L.S., and the meeting was addressed by ministers of the various denominations, also by Mr. Ernest J ones,and Mr.Cottingham, counsel for the prisoners, and other gentlemen. A memorial was unanimously adopted, and despatched by the London mail to the Home Secretary. MORE RATEENING AT SHEFFIELD.—VII Tuesday morning a scissor grinder, named George Booth, who is a member of the union, discovered that in the course of the night his mill had been entered and six bands and three nuts had been taken away. A few weeks since Booth was waited on about his employing a son, who, it was acknow ledged, was less than 1.3 years of age, and that thereby he was breaking one of the rules of the union. Re was told that unless he produced a certificate to the officers of the union showing that his son was over 13 years, he would some time or other get into trouble. Booth's son is over 13 years of age, but he failed to produce the certificate, and this is supposed to be the chief cause of the outrage. DAVIDSON r..IIOLINEAI3I AND ANOTIMIL , This wa;•yery --- cnriiiusCaseoffaisTarres --- t. It was ' originally an action for damages against the Sheriff of I Surrey for Übe imprisonment, in which judgment went by default. A jury was summoned, and the damages were amused before the under-sheriff at 250 guineas. Afterwards application was made to Mr. Jus tice Blackburn, at chambers, who stayed erect'. tion in order that the defendants, might move the court for • 'rule to set aside the proceedings, and a new in. quiry had on the ground that the damages were excessive. The plaintiff, Mr. Charles Davidson, is • member of the equity bar, and resides at Sydenham-hill. A writ of ne exeat regno had been iuued out of Chancery against Mr. Gilbert Davidson, which was handed to the Sheriff of Surrey to execute. The defendant in that suit bad been or was living in the neighbourhood of the plaintiff's resi dence, Sydenham-hill. The writ was banded to the sheriff's officer with an urgent request that it should be executed the same day, and notwithstanding the remonstrances of the officer on account of the lateness of the hour, the attorney's clerk insisted upon its being done. Accordingly they went to the plaintiff's residence u late as ten o'clock at night, saw him, and the attorney's clerk insisted upon his being arrested. Mr. Davidson protested against it, said he knew nothing of the matter, and that he was not the party wanted. The attorney's clerk persisted that he was, and produced a photograph of • gentleman which resembled the plaintiff. The plaintiff was ultimately conveyed in his own carriage to the re sidence of the chief officer of the sheriff in the borough, where he was treated with every kindness and considera tion. It appeared that the Chancery proceedings arose out of en action for breach of promise, and at 12 o'clock at night the lady was brought to the house in the Borough, toidentify Mr. Davidson • but immediately on seeing him exclaimed," Oh dear, this is not the particular gentleman I I want." Thereupon Mr. Davidson, having been locked up two hours, was discharged. Subsequently • rule was moved for and obtained to reduce the damages. Mr. Morgan Howard, with Mr. F. Abbott, appeared in support of the rule. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., and Mr. Griffith showed cause against the rule. Mr. Coleridge said his client had offered to accept 100/., to be handed over to a charitable institution, but the defendant declined. The damages &messed were no doubt high, hut under peculiar circumstances, and if good reasons could be assigned the the court would not interfere with that which was the province of the jury. It must be borne in mind that the plaintiff was a gentleman of high reputation at the bar, and had resided at Sydenham for 20 years. It was therefore • great indignity to such a man to be falsely arrested at night and taken from his home. Ultimately, on the suggestion of Mr. Justice Blackburn, the rule was made absolute for • new trial, unless the plaintiff consented to reduce the damages to 1301. COURT OF PROBATE.—Nov. 21. (Before Sir J. P. Wilde.) PEAIII4I r. PEARSE AND DICBT. . . Mr. that in an in terview with Mrs. Pear's, in 1852, that lady had distinctly told him that her husband had never used any acts of violence towards her, except on one occasion pinching her a little, and her only complaint against him was that he had a very provoking temper. On the other band, she ad mined that she had once thrown • candlestick at him, because he made an offensive remark about her brother. Mrs. Ilyam was called to prove that Mrs. Pearse told her that her daughter was born on the exact day she expected, though Mrs. Pewee in her evidence alleged that it was prematurely born through the cruelty of her husband. The learned counsel then addressed the court, and his lordship at the conclusion said that the evidence did not satisfy him that Mr. Pears.) was of unsound mind at the time he executed the will, therefore he should pronounce in favour of it, and would take time to consider whether he would condemn Mrs. Pearse in the costs of this suit or not. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (Before Baron Chaim.ll.) (Concluded from yesterday's Azpress.) Schesmi Fronds • gentlemanly-looking man, described as • solicitor, was indicted for feloniously forging a power of attoreey for the transfer of 1001. Consols Stock, with intent to defraud the Governor and Company of the Bank of England. Mr. Metcalfe made an able speech in his behalf, and sub mitted that the signature of Mr. Matthew Bartlett was actually in the handwriting of his brother, Mr. John Bartlett, who had written it on the representation of the prisoner that Mr. Matthew Bartlett was a consenting party, but that subsequently, for fear of any consequences arising with regard to himself, he had been driven to throw the blame upon the prisoner. The jury, after • short consultation, found the prisoner Gudly of uttering. The learned Judge expressed his entire concurrence in the verdict, and said the question now was what punish ment the court was called upon to indict. He was un. :yr i ' i tj( to forget such extenuating circumstances as oc in favour of the prisoner, because he had been deal ing, not with the property of • stranger, but with property in which, if be survived his wife, he would have been entitled to some interest. But he could not pass • lees sentence than that of penal servitude, and the law pre vented him giving a shorter period than five yearn ; there fore that was the sentence he now pronounred. This concluded the business of the session, and the court was then adjourned until the 16th of December.

A Court of Common Council was held yesterday at Guildhall, at which the Loin) Maros presided for the first time since his appointment to the office of chief magistrate of the City of London. He was received in a most cordial and friendly manner. Upon the motion of Deputy Gammon, seconded by Mr. Burke, • cordial and unanimous resolution of thanks wee awarded to the late Lord Mayor (Sir T. Gabriel), for the very able and satis factory manner in which be had performed the duties of that office during the past year. Deputy Fry asked the chairman of the Entertainment Committee who had the making of the arrangementefor the guests in Guildhall on Lord Mayor's day, by whose authority the bar had been placed across the ball which separated the members of that court and a great many other visitors from the die tinguished guests at the upper table. (Hear, hear.) ~The court bad already expressed • strong opinion as to the impropriety of this proceeding, and ' he considered it a gross insult. Alderman Phil lips, with regard to the general arrangements last Lord Mayor's day, said there appeared to be a cold ness about the whole affair whiel he had never before witnessed. (Cries of " Hear, hear," and " No, no.") It was not to his mind anything like the Lord Mayor's feasts of old. They had reduced the number of visitors to 800, but he had seen 1,200 cheerful, happy citizens sitting down to the dinner, and they all seemed pleased and contented. In the course of the discussion it was stated that the Ow- ing the bar in question rested with the committee of the Court of Aldermen, and that it was in accordance with ancient custom. All desire that such a distinction should have been drawn between the guests was repu diated by the Lord Mayor and Sheriffs. A report was brought up giving a detail of the works that were going on at the new bridge at Bhickfriars which it appeared were progressing satisfactorily. Mr. Ben Slowman called the attention of the court to the great danger that was likely to arise from the close proximity of the new bridge to the railway bridge. The noise of the trains was most likely to frighten horses, and at night, when accompanied by glaring lights close to the thoroughfare for horses and vehicles, he was satisfied from experience, that unless precautions were taken serious accidents must inevitably take place. The Town Clerk then read two letters that had been received by the Lord Mayor from the Privy Council-office, announcing the intention of the govern. ment to propose a bill in the next session of parliament authorising the erection of • market for the express pur pow of slaughtering and disposing of foreign cattle. The next business was the consideration of • petition by Mr. John Walker, jeweller, of Threadneedle-street, who was robbed of property the cost price of which was 4,0001. by the Cawley gang of burglars, praying that the court would order him to receive some portion of the money found in the possession of the prisoners at the time of their apprehension, and which had been taken possession of by the then Sheriffs of London, by virtue of their office. Mr. Cox moved that the petition be referred to the Law and Parliamentary Committee, which was seconded by Mr. Banister, and • very warm discussion took place, the majo- rity of the speakers expressing • strong opinion that it was a most improper proceeding for the corporation of London to be in any way concerned in the appropriation of the property of felons. It transpired that the corporation had originally purchased the right from the crown many centuries ago, and that they paid 300 f. for that right, and still continued to do so. In the course of the discussion it was announced that only one alderman was present, two being required, and there being thus no court the matter was brought to an abrupt termination, and an adjourn ment took place. EAST LONDON CONVALESCENT HOME. A very numerously attended public meeting was held yesterday at the London Tavern, in aid of the pro posed enlargement of Mrs. Gladstone's Convalescent Horne for the East of London. The Lord Mayor was advertised sa the chairman, but an explanation was given by Mr. K fireman HODGSON, who was voted to the chair in his plane, that the right hon. gentleman could not attend in consequence of having to preside ate Court of Common Council. Amongst the gentlemen on the platform were the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P., the Right Hon. J. Goechen, M.P., Lord Cranborne, Sir Thomas Watson, Mr. Hepworth Dixon, Mr. Hankey, Mr. S. Morley, Mr. H. Nieman, the Rev. Mr. Rowsell, Mn. Gladstone and several other ladies occupied promi nent places in the body of the hall. The object of the charity, and the circumstances under which it originated, are described in the following state ment which wag circulated in the room :—" This Conva lescent Home arose out of the necessity of providing country accommodation for patients recovering from cholera during the epidemic of 1866. When that epidemic ceased it was discovered that numerous persons who had recently passed through other forms of acute disease, relapeed into lingering and sometimes fatal illness from want of that timely change of air, good food, and com fortable lodging which are essential to complete recovery. It was to make provision for such cases otherwise unpro vided for, that Mrs. Gladstone, with the help of those benevolent persons who might go to her aid, determined to place upon a permanent foundation the Home thus created to supply a temporary need and seeing that the conditions of admission to kindred institutions debarred numbers from their benefits, or indirectly withheld them till too late to be of use, she further determined, with the assent of her committee, to dispense with payments and canvassing in every form, and to admit patients solely in the order of the urgency of their claims to relief. All this, within certain limits, has been done ; and for many months the Home at Snaree lnook has been in active and successful operation. For some time men alone were received ; but latterly demands for the admission of women and children having become numerous and pressing, Mrs. Gladstone has reserved for their reception a part of her orphanage at Clanton. The work has thus, by a process of natural development, out grown the means of carrying it cm ; and it is at this crisis that the committee make an earnest appeal to the public for prompt and liberal help to enable them to extend the sphere of their orations." Prayer having been offered up by the Rev. Mr. Rowsell, The CHAIRM;N read • letter iron. the Bishop of London expressing sympathy in the purpose of the meeting, en d regretting his inability to attend. The Bishop of R001E8171; moved a resolution, declaring that the principles on which the home was founded en titled it to public support ; end in doing so, paid • well merited acknowledgment to Mrs. Gladstone's large hearted charity in establishing an institution for the per manent relief of the sick poor of London, and urged its claims to public support. Mr. Glaosvotre seconded the motion. If ever there was a strictly practical project which bad nothing of a specu lative character about it, it was this. (Hear.) With re gard to the principles referred to in the resolution, they were simple, and were set out in the rules of the institu tion. Two only of those principles were considered by the promoters to be fundamental. The first of these was that the hospital should be free ; and the second, that it should be conducted without the slightest regard to religious dis tinctions. (Cheers.) He met the objection that the patients ought to contribute to their own support by stating that the poor during illness were without income, being unable to work, and usually when approaching con valescence, and long before they were enabled to work, found all their means exhausted in the necessary expenses of sickness. The free system in regard to admission would prevent al! the inconveniences, expense, and uncertainty of election, which was the only means of admission to many of our charitable institutions ; and the free system in reference to religion would exclude no one on the ground of religious opinions, while it would not prevent due regard being paid to the performance of Divine service in accordance with the rites of what would he the religion of the majority of the inmates. Referring to the possible plea of bad times, he remarked that the only difference between a bad year and a good year was that in the one the accretion of capital was greater, and in the other smaller ; the capital of the nation was not diminished in the bad year, although the profit. were leas . • and as a reason for the capitalist subscribing as liberally now as in more prosperous times, he reminded them that periods of commercial and financial difficulty pressed far n.ore directly and severely upon the poor than the rich. -- The resolution was carried unanimously. Lord CRAMIORNE moved that the opinions expressed by the members of the clerical and medical professions as to the advantages of a convalescent home for the east of London render it necewq to enlarge the limited accommodation which Mrs. G tone's Home at present possesses. Re added, as affording some notion of the character of the effort required, that the cost of enlarging the institution by 100 beds would be about 2,4001. per annum. He pointed out that the hospitals were not in a position generally to provide an asylum for their patients during convalescence ; and that, as the Poor law could not supply it, they must depend upon public benevolence alone, which he felt satisfied would not be appealed to in vain. Sir Triosas WAVVON, M.D., from a long hospital expe tience, testified to the necessity of the proposed institu tion, where pure air, proper food, and medical attention should be provided for convalescent patients. That neces sity Mrs. Gladstone bad learned in the course of her own labours among the sick and dying during the last visita tion of the cholera. (Hear, bear.) The Bishop of CHVITIER, in the absence of Lord Lyttel ton, who was detained on the Public Schools Commission, proposed the third resolution, recommending the forma tion of committees of all classes in the various parishes and districts of the east of London, for the purpose of collecting subscriptions and otherwise forwarding the ob ject in view. This was seconded by Mr. Bemoan - Ft DIXON, and carried. Another resolution. pledging the meeting to do all in its power to give effect to the previous resolutions. moved by Mr. 8. Monti, and seconded by Mr. G misior, was like wise passed, and The usual compliment to the chairman concluded the proceedings.

The business done luring the week and to-day has been very limited. Some choice lots of both bright haired and dawn wools, very scarce and small lu quantity, have been sold at prices which could not be realised last week, but these transactions are altogether exceptional.

The fresh orders coming in are quite of a hand-to-month cha racter. The home trade is quite torpid. Many splinters would be glad of the chance of taking orders, even at low prices, if they had the offer. There has been rather more business done in pieces. Several foreign buyers have to-day been looking round and testing prices, but the actual orders placed see only small. and at low prices.

The charge alleged that the death of a chid named Elizabeth Baigent had resulted from the mai.ter's neglect, together with the serious illness and loss of a toe from chilblains occasioned by exposure to frost and cold in the case of • girl named. Ellen Los. The decision of the Poor-law Board designated the charge as " frivolous and vexatious," and the guardians thereupon addressed to the Poor-law Board, &remonstrance against their decision. Dr. Stallard concluded by stating that the report in the Lanni understated the circumstances which he and Dr. Anstie saw and ascertained by their visit to the Farnham workhouse. Substantially the facts, so far as stated, wets correct. Evidence was given by Emma Spreadborough, formerly cook in the union, respecting the supply of mot to the officers and inmates. Sometimes an aitch-bone of beef was brought in and cooked for the former, an.l for the latter clods and sticking pieces. Breast of mutton sometimes put in to make up a deficiency in the weight of beef. The inquiry was again adjourned. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES, AND DEATHS.
