The worthy alderman he was sure would not deem him guilty of any disrespect if on the pre- sent ace.t.:lli he declined to sive any information as to w'mdia:r he wax going to propose any remission orconsider aide altLration the public taxes. He was sure the worthy uldo-.0 m would ~!low him when he had any alteration or rei.:isdon to propose on such a subject to announce it him self to the house, and that he should not be asked to 114 , ....! . .r.veAti0ns which would only lead to great misap prehension with the public. (Hear, hear.) RATING AND RENTALS. Mr. LASS inquired when the returns as to ting awl rent.ds, onlered by the house on the 2Sth day June, would he presented ? Mr. HARDY, in consequence of a letter addressed to him by the hon. member yesterday, had made indquiries on the sli4ject. It appeared that the poor law officers were nut in possession of materials to furnish the information, and that the few returns that bad come in were so imper fect is all respects as to be practically useless. that the hor.sc. should not be trdithie , l with constant repe -1 titions of the s 10t question. The hill of the hon. and learned member was distinct in principle from that of another hon. :Itemiser, beams:. the latter affected endow ments, while the present bill simply related to degrees and offices in the university, and he was aware that some who would vote for one would not support the other. What he rose fin as* to give notice that if the bill of the hon. and learned member went into committee, he should move that it be an instruction to the committee that the bill be made to apply to the University of Cambridge as well as to the University of Oxford. The house then went into committee, and the resolution of the hon. and learned member was agreed to. tale intelligence. EQUITY COURTS. —FED. 12 (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Malin.) SEATON V. GRANT AND THE CREDIT roNCIER CUIIPANT. This bill was filed hy Mr. Cherie* Seaton, a shareholder and debenture holder in the Credit Foncicr and Moldlier Company of England, on behalf of himself and all other the shareholders, except Mr. Albert Grant, against Mr. Grant, the managing director of the Credit Fancier, and Mr. George Edward Seymour, to obtain a declaration that 12,1'29 shares in the City of Mil a n Imp rovemen t s C om p an y belonged to them personally, and not to the Credit Foncier, and to restrain the purchase of :1,900 other shares out of the monies of the Credit Foncier. It also sought torestrain Mr. Grant from handing over to Mr. Seymour certain bonds and promissory notes which, as allege-I, were deposited as security for an advance of money by the company for the purchase of shares, but these had, it appeared. already been delivered. The interlocutory motion was argued before Vice-Chancellor Kindersley in July last, when bin Honour refused the injunction with costs. The- defendants had put in answers to the bill, and after exception had been taken to those answers, imtiee was given to take the bill oftthe file. The Attorney-General and Mr. Waller for the cona mny; and Sir It. Palmer, Mr. Baily, Mr. Kerslake, Mr. Speed, and Mr. Wickens for the defendants, supported the motion to take the bill off the file ; and Mr. (:lass and Mr. Cracknell opposed it. The Vice-Chancellor said his inclination would have been to grant the motion, because it appeared that the plaintiff, having no interest in the company, had for some purpose of his own purchased five shares to enable him to file Ids bill. The bill wss clearly a mockery, and could not h.,ve been filed bona fide for any honest purpose. Still it was remarkable that though last June as much was known as was now known, the proceeding* laa.l been allowed to go on, the defendants had pat in answers to the bill, and had not given them notioc to take it off the file till exception had been taken to their answer. Under these c;reum. stances he must refuse the motion, but would reserve the question of costs till the hearing. It was understood that this decision would be appealed igainst without delay, and the exceptions were not, therefore, gone into. COURT OF DIVORCE.—FEs. 12. (Before Sir J. P. Wilde.) GATEHOUSE r. GATEHOUSE. This was a petition by the wife for dissolution of mar riage on the ground of the husband's adultery and deser tion. It was tried a few weeks ago, and his lordship now delivered judgment. He said there was no doubt about the adultery,andthe'quection he had taken time toconsider was the desertion. The husband was a medical man, and was married in 1852, his mother-in-law purchasing him • practice in London. He lived with his wife until 1851;, when he absented himself without giving any account as to where he wan going. After an absence of some months he returned, and it was suggested that this was the commencerrent of the desertion, because he did not stay at the house, but went away again. It turned out by the evidence, however, that the mother-in-law thought that he ought not to be taken back again because of his previous misconduct, and from this time she held him at arms' length. The court, therefore, would not have been satisfied that this was legal desertion of the wife had there not been other circumstances. The re spondent had no fixed place of abode until 1844, when be took a practice at a small town in Wales. Here he lived in adultery with a Mrs. Tongue, and from that time he had never written or taken means to see his wife, and therefore the court would hold this as desertion, and make • decree with costs fur the dissolution of the marriage. *parting intelligence.

Mr. WALPoLE said that on Sunday morning lie re ceived a communication that there was unusual ex eiteineat among those who were believed to be Feuians in Lie, moot, end that there was none apprehension that a mavement was about to be made. He sent down agents specially to inquire into the truth of these statements, and on Monday morning he received a tele gram from toe Mayor of Chester, stating that the town was full of strangers believed to be Fenian.. and it was apprehended that they were about to attack the castle for the purpose of obtaining possession of the anus and ammu nition kert there. As additional troops were naked for, le e;reed that a company should be sent from Man chester. Further on in the day he received a report from r. gentleman be had sent down, who infonnisl him that there had been a meeting of Fenians, who had resolvol to attack the town of Chester on Monday iitorniog. Yesterday he received further telegrams from the mayor Mating that there were altogether 1,3(10 stran;er. in the town, and that more troops were re : pored. He at once telegmphed to General Gordon and to the mayor, asking for further information. Th.. reply i of the Mayor, received at 1 o'clock in the morning, was I that there were 1.:0) strangers in the city, and that all i the local means of prevention were at an end. Upon this WO of the Guenl, were despatched to Chester. At 4 o'clock be received a telestra . m from °anent' Gordon, who did not take so gloomy a view of the affair as the mania . pal aathoritie., and thought that it was not necessary to met d additional troops. He (Mr. Walpole) did not know if it was a Fenian outbreak, except that the circumstances pointed in that direction. Mr. C. FORTIS` CUE wished to know whether there was any information as to what was the conduct of those straitrers in the town. Did they threaten the castle, and were they named' Mr. WALPOLE—I have received no information up to the pr.seat moment, whether they were annul or not. Mr. 0. STANLEY—I wish to ask whatwasthe military fore- for the „manta Chester castle on Friday Lot. Er. WALPOLE—I hope the house will not press for that information until to-morrow. Mr. 0. STANLEY said he would give notice o a quo:i dol' on t'oe subt. Lord ELCH O-1 think it right, as lam in possession of a te:e4r.uu from Chester from Lord Grosvenor, who went down yesterday afternoon, he being in command of the Chester troop of yecumnry, that I should inform the house of its contents. It arrived about 4 o'clock this terno.n, and is to the following effect :—" Was serious information saved the town—all right now." (Cheers.) CHURCH RATES. Mr. HARDCASTLE obtained leave to introduce aLOI for the abolition of church rates. ARTISAN., AND LABOURERS' DWELLINGS. Mr. TO/MESS nifved for leave to introduce a bill to provide better dwellings in towns for artissus and labourers. The ni.-asure was similar in character to the bill which he had introduced last session. On that mat. aloe it was referred to a select committee, who reported, and the measure be now advocated was based on that re port. and remained as the house and committee left it. Mr. WALPOLL said that in the general object of the bill be for one uost heartily concurred, but he wished to guard himself from expressing an opinion on that part of it containing an Laportant provision relating to the pro perty and rights of individuida, which required to be care fully looked into. With that qualification be should be happy to give Lis support to the bill. (Hear, hear.) After some discussion, leave was given to bring in the bill. CHURCH RATES COMMUTATION. Mr. NEWDEGATE niove.l for leave to bring in a hill for the commutation of church rates. He observed that he brought the subject forward last session, but in defer ence to the opinions expressed by some hon. members he withdrew the measure which he then proposed. Mr. HADFIELD wished for some explanation of the bill. If he recollected right, the hon. member's scheme was to impose a rate of 2d. in the pound on all real estates for Via benefit of the church, or something equal to $00,001.1. or 200.000 f. They had had several debates on— he presumed—the same measure, and some of his own party had declared against it ; consequently there was not the slightest chance of its passing. The friends of the church would be very wise to let drop a question of this kind. which had been thirty years before the country. The hon. member concluded by moving the previous Mr. CANDLIAH seconded the amendment. Mr. NEWDECATE said the hon. member bad spoken with respect to a bill which was not in his hands, and had made the uicet ext r aordinary statement with regard to the hill of last SiSelol2 which it was possible to conceive. In saving that the latter imposed a charge of between ftik),oool. and takdkitg.. Ito could not have read the bill, because It did no such thing: He hoped the house would, in accord dice a ith the usual practice, allow him to lay the bill on the table. (Hear, hear.) . . Sir 0. GREY said it was a'ruattei of ordinary courtesy to allow • tu.iliGa to introduce • hill, and he trusted the hon. member fur :•vhettielil would not oppose that course on the present occasion. Mr. lIADFIELD then withdrew his amendment, and leave was giver. obring in the bill. ABOLITION OF TESTS AT OXFORD. Mr. COLERIDGE moved that the house go into com mittee of the whole house for the purpose of enabling him to move a resolution to the following effect :—" That the chairman be directed to move the house that leave be given to bring in a bill to provide for the abolition of religious tests in connection with academical degrees and offices in the University of Oxford." He explained that as the bill was exiietly the same as the one he brought forward last year, and as he learnt the hon. member for Oxford and others interested in the measure would not optvise its introduction. he would not trouble the house with any remarks with respect to it on the present occasion. Mr. FAWCETT thought the house would remember that last session theright hon. gentleman the member for Caine, in oteof the most completely liberal speeches he ever made in the house on the universities, strongly advised that so far as possible some of these bills should be united, and RAILWAY DEBIDITURES. Mr. WATKIN, in rising to move for leave to bring in a bill for affording better security to the holders of railway debentures, said be should not en this occasion trouble the house at auy length, as he had submitted an outline of the proposed bill to the President of the Board of Trade, who had intimated he should make no objection to it. intro duction. He brought in the bill in the interests of 80,000 persons, who were holders of 100,0110,0001. invested in rail way debentures. His object was to remove, by legislation, certain difficulties that had arisen, and that machinery might be provided by which, under certain circtuustances, debenture holders might take part in the managenientof their own affairs. Lave was then given to bring in the hi!l. WORKMEN'S ASSOCIATIONS. Mr. NEATE moved for leave to bring in a bill to exempt during a limited time associations of workmen which are in respect of any part of their constitution entitled to the benefits of the act 1$ and 19 Viet., c. ta , from for feiture of those benefits by reason of their being in other parts of their constitution afhiptefl to the purposes of • trade union. lie stated that up to the year 1 associations having for their object the keeping up of the rate of wages were illegal. At that time the law was altered, and under the Friendly Societies Act special facilities were given, by which associations of workmen were enabled to obtain the benefit of that act. From that time until within the last month trade associations had continued to enjoy the benefit of that law, but it was decided the other day in the queen's Bench that in • case where • treasurer of a trades union society Lad refused to hand over the funds entrusted to him no warrant could be issued against him, on the ground that the society being of a trades union character had forfeited the benefit of the act. He (Mr. Neste) did not question the correctness of that decision, but, presuming the law to be as it hail been laid clown, serious inconvenience must hereafter arise, contrary to the intentions of those who had framed the acts. He thought, therefore, that, pending the full inquiry that would shortly take place into the whole subject, it would be ad visable to give an indemnity to such associations as would otherwise be liable to the forfeiture of the benefits con ferred by the Friendly Societies Act. Mr. WALPOLE said be had no objection to offer to the introduction of the bill, but he should carefully examine its provisions before pronouncing any opinion upon the proposed measure. Leave was then given to intrados* the bilL METROPOLITAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT. Mr. AYRTON moved the appointment of a select com mittee to inquire into the local government and local taxation of the metropolis. The motion was agreed to. THE DUTIES ON SUGAR. Mr. W. HUNT gave notice that on Thursday next be would move that the house resolve itself into committee to take into consideration the duties on sugar. The house adjourned at half-past six o'clock. THE WORKING CLASSES AND RELIGIOUS INf3TITUTIONB. TO THE EDITOR OP THE 1111PRVIS, Sia,—At the recent Conference at the London Coffee-house, it was suggested by Mr. George Potter that on some early occasion a special sermon should be preached —if possible simultaneously—by the clergy of all denomi nations on the relations of working men to Christianity, and that such intention should in each case be made known to the non-churchgoing public. lie also expressed his confident belief that thousands of people who rarely go to a piece of worship would make a point of attending such special service. The suggestion has found much favour, and I understand that a number of ministers of the Gospel, including some clergymen of the church of England, will ende.ivour to carry it out on the last Sunday evening of the present month (the 24th inst.). There is no time for this excellent pro posal to be considered by the ecclesiastical autho rities of any denomination, if it were desirable. Nor is there any need for any such formality. Every minister of religion, whether belonging to the established church or to the nonconformist communities, enjoys the liberty of preaching , and I suppose it would be in the power of nearly all , as it is the intention of many, to give expression from the pulpit in their own way to the special claims of the Gospel upon our industrial population, and especially to speak such words of loving sympathy as will, at least, help to break down unfounded prejudices against religious institutions and the public worship of God. It ei hardly possible to overrate the beneficial °fleets that might indirectly result from such services bring held in thousands of places of worship next Sunday week, and only a tacit understanding among Christian ministers is needed in order to accomplish the object. May I ask a little space in your columns to give further publicity to a valuable pro posal, which, I have no doubt, would have been cordially endorsed by the committee that convened the late con ference, if opportunity had since offered for their owl sideration of it ?—1 am, t 3. MORLEY , Treasurer of the late Conference. 18, Wood•street, Cheapshle, Feb. 11. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN. The report of the directors, to be submitted to the half-yearly meeting on the 22nd inst., states that the accounts for the half-year ending 31st December, 1866, duly audited and verified, present the following results:— Net proceeds of the half-year's revenue, 1,124,9331. Bs. 2d.; balance from last account, 28 191 . 10e. 3d. ; disposable balance, 1,133,1021. 18a. sd. ; which enables the directors to recommend a dividend, at the rate of tig per oent. per annum on the ordinary share capital—leaving a balance of 72,3001. Us. AL to be carried to the credit of next half year. As compared with the corresponding period of 1863, the amount received for passengers , goods, minerals, and cattle, the number of passengers and tuns of goods and minerals carried, and of train miles run in 1866, have been as follows :—Passengers, &c., receipts, 1,329,4*8/. (in crease, 243690; goods, minerals, and cattle receipts, 4799,8091. (increase 81,70 W.) ; total, 3,329,2171 (increase, 104,0044 Passengers, 11,197,978 (increase, 367,681) ; goods and minerals, 8,091,748 tons (increase, 322,316 tone); mileage of passenger trains, 5,478,843 miles (increase 117,996 miles) ; mileage of goods and mineral trains, 5,6'39,470 miles (increase 240,117 miles). LONDON AND BLACKMAIL. —The sixty-first half yearly meeting of proprietors in this concern was held yesterday at the London Tavern, Mr. F. W. Haigh in the chair. The report having been taken as read, the chairman moved its adoption, remarking that there could not now be any complaint of the non-production of the accounts of the concern. Comparing the position of the company some years ago with its present, there was great cause fur satisfaction. Numerous dif fi culties had been surmounted. and the extension works that in some comp a ni es h a d proved ruinous, had been their salvation. The dividend on the original Blackwell stock was 2 per cent., while the exten sion works with about the sauce outlay returned nearly 6 per cent., or a mean of about 4 per cent. on the whole. The Eastern Counties Company could not complain of their bargain, as they were making 4/. 4s. per cent. There was now a favourable balance of 11,300/. to the account of the London awl Blackwell Company. Some dissatisfaction hest been expressed a , certain long standing accounts, but the fault was not theirs, end he protested against an unfair construction being put upon the actions of th e b. It was only recently that the Eastern Counties Company had come to terms, and the matters in dispute would be settled shortly by arbitration. The resolution was seconded by Mr. C. Whetham, and, after a brief discussion, adopted. According to the recommendation of the report a dividend of 4/. 4a. 2d. was declared upon the 1,70:1,10:./. of capital. It was stated that the debenture debt of the company being fully secured by the revenue of the line, the board considered it desirable to issue a perpetual debenture stock, instead of borrowing money to replace debentures from time to time falling due ; a resolution was therefore carried authorising the creation of debenture stock bearing interest at a rate not exceeding 4/. it.. per annum. Mr. G. Smith having been re-elected auditor, the meeting con cluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman. MEETING OF COTTON SPINNEIES.—A large meet ing of cotton spinners was held yesterday afternoon in the Town Hall, Manchester, which had been convened by the Cotton Spinners' Association, to adopt resolutions with re gard to subjects of frequent grievance as against the cotton brokers at LiverpouL Mr. Hugh Mason presided. The following resolutions were unanimously pealed. Moved by Mr. Hanson, of Halifax, seconded by Mr. W. C. Jones, of Leigh, supported by Mr. J. Fish, of Blackburn:— " That the terms of payment fur cotton be, on and after the Ist March next, cash in ten days, less 14 per cent. discount ; interest at the rate of o per cent. to be allowed or charged for payments earlier or later." Moved by Mr. G. L. Ashworth, of Rochdale ; seconded by Mr. Richard Howarth; and supported by Mr. J. Ogden, of Dukinfield :—" That all invoices be dated on the day of purchase, excepting in those cases where the seller may be unable to deliver on that day, when the in voice must be dated on the slay when he can deliver the whole of the cotton." Moved by Mr. Henry Harrison, of Blackburn ; seconded by Mr. Richard Calvert, of Walton le-Dale :—" That in order to obtain reliable reports of the stock of cotton, the Liverpool Cotton Brokers' Asso ciation be requevted to procure from all its members a daily account of the quantity and the sorts of cotton ac tually forwarded to the carriers, and also to abolish all notice and report in its circulars of speculations." THE POLICE COURT& MANSION•HOUSB A well-dressed man. named Rirhard Gorham, whose ad dress was Lime-cottages, High street, Homertoti. was brought up in custody by detective officer Edward Han cock before Mr. Alderman Rose (who sat for the Lord Mayor), charged with embezzling divers sums of money re ceived by him in his capacity of town traveller to the firm of Messrs. Saunders, Dyott, and Co., wholisale stationirs, of Cannon-street. It appeared that the prisoner had been some time in the service of the prosecutors, but in consequence of suspicion being entertained as to his honesty, inquires were set on foot, which resulted in the discovery of defalcations to sonic extent, and the consequent apprehension by detective officer Edward Hancock of the prisoner at his residence in Homerton. He at once stated that he was aware who the officer was, and declared that he had received four mum of money for which he had not accounted, and alleged that he hail been driven to the commission of the offence by pecuniary distress, and bail applied the money to the pay ment of his rent and to the discharge of other liabilities. The prisoner, after formal proof of his receipt and non accounting for a sum of ti. I3a. lit., was remanded for a week. William Mc:troll ? a morose and ill-looking fellow, was charged with stealing from the person of Herman Geiger • silver watch, value 405., his property. The evidence of the prosecutor disclosed that he was a confectioner, residing in Whitechaptl, and that on the pnvions afternoon he was landing at Allhallows-pier from a steamboat, when the prisoner made a sudden nub up to him and seized his watch from his vest pocket. He seized the prisoner and distinctly saw his watch in the prisoner's hand, and noticed beyond doubt that he threw the watch into the river. He was however, secured and given into custody, when he denied all knowledge of the watch, or that he had ever had it in his possession. This was nega tived by the evidence of Pohoe-constable Ryan, 156 N, who distinctly saw the watch in the prisoner's hand before he cast it into the river. Mr. Alderman Rose inquired whether or not the prisoner wee known. Chief warder Ager intimated that a Middlesexofficer was present to prove former convictions. Warder Herbert Reeves, from the Cold Bath-fields Prison proved that on the 13th March, 18Iki, the prisoner had been convicted at the Thames Police-court, under the Criminal Justice Act, of stealing a purse, containing 10s., and sentenced to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour. On the 27th September last the prisoner bad again been committed to the prison as n rogue and vaga bond, for attempting to pick pockets at the Agricrulturid hall, Islington, and sentenced to three mouths' imptison ment. The prisoner admitted all these facts, but implored the alderman to give him another chance, instead of sending him for trial, and he added that, if he got a short sentence, he would go for a soldier when he came out of prison. Mr. Alderman Rose said there could be no doubt the prisoner was an incorrigible thief, and committed him for trial at the next session of the Central Criminal Court MARII.IIBONE William Sint., described as a bricklayer, was charged with stealing a gold breast pin of the value of eighteen shil Ado eh Gutmann, a baker, was looking at the reform procession in the Euston•road, when a companion of the prisoner snatched the pin from his scarf and passed it to the e risoner. When the prisoner was seized he dropped it, and it had not been found. Remanded for a week. 16;i;rtiio;//Wywaicharged with stealing a snuff box. An elderly man, named John Brophy, felt his snuff box drawn from his pocket, and saw it at the prisoner's feet. He was given into custody. At the station-house, when he WilA searched, a part of a gold chain and two other watch chains were found in his possession. Remanded for a week. William Leary, a dirty-looking fellow, was charged as under: LOMA& Flafford, a arrant, wu looking at the proces sion, when she mined her purse, containing 21. 7.. Her pocket had been cut out, and the prisoner was seen to run from her side with a penknife open in his band. lie was pursued a considerable distance before he was captured. Remanded for a week. Gautre Orin was charged with assault. Samuel Ellis said he was assisting to keep his club in order in the procession, and was bustled and ruddy pushed by the prisoner and his companions, who tried to break the nuika. He pushed the prisoner away, and was then violently struck on the face by him. He was fined 10s., or se , en days. A lad was sent to Felttuun for three years for attempting to pick pockets in the procession. THAMES. JO*tea RON, aged 18, and described as a labourer, of No. 6, William-street, Limehouve-fields, was brought up on remand before Mr. Paget, charged with setting fire to the letters in a post-office pi ll ar box in Higlxstreet, Step ney, opposite the old church. Mr. X B. Osborn, solicitor on behalf of the post-office authorities. conducted the prooeention. On Friday evening last the letters in the pillar box were discovered to he on fire, and smoke was issuing through the slit at the top of the box. A police constable obtained some water, poured it into the box, and extinguished the fire. The people at the district post•office in the Com mercial-road were communicated with immediately, the box was opened, and among 36 letters which it contained, one was wholly destroyed, seven partially consumed, and the rest damaged by fire and water. The prisoner was arrested on Saturday afternoon as the person sup. poised to be guilty of this wanton and malicious act. A vod deal of evidence was brought to bear against him, but it was not conclusive, and he was discharged. Last evening Dr. Lankester held an inquest at the University College Hospital relative to the death of William Rdwards, 56 years of age, who died in the above mentioned institution after amputation of the left arm and leg, consequent on injuries received at the WillesdenJunc tion St►tion of the North-Western Railway. While the panel was being sworn, Mr. Chas. Valogne, a Frenchman, refused to take the oath, on the ground that he was an atheist, and did not believe the Bible, and as he further de clined to say that he would sot conscientiously as a juror he was dismissed from the court. We learn from the Leeds iferrunj that the cattle plague has reappeared in the neighbourhood of H.l Wax, upon the farm of Mr. Sutcliffe, of Worley, who was a movers su ff erer by the disease lad year. THE PROSECUTION OF GENERAL NELSON AND LIEUTENANT BRAND. At Bow-street, yesterday, after our report left, Mr. Stephen applied for a farther remand, which was aoce.led to. Mr. Briatowe suggested that what originally fell from Sir Thomas Henry would probably rule his mind now, that there really could be no reason why Lieutenant Brand should not be liberated on his own recognisance& Sir Thomas Henry Puked if there was any reason why bail should not be given ? Mr. Brinowe said only that there seemed to have been some insinuation that he had been hiding. Sir Thomas Henry said that there was no such insinua tion, and it only showed the danger of commenting upon what one had not heard. The former boil was then renewed. THE LAW or LIDEL.—The following is the arrangement of the clauses of the biU to amend the law of libel, and thereby to secure more effectually the liberty of the press, prepared and brought iwo the House of Commons by Sir Colman O'Loghlen and Mr. Haines : No proprietor of a newspaper or periodical publication shall be liable to an action or prosecution for a faithful report of a spie' at a public meeting, unless he shall de elute to publish, if required, an explanation or contradic tion of the statements complained of. A speaker at a public meeting shall be liable to be sued and prosecuted for defamatory matter spoken by him at such meet ing, as if he had written and published the same. The privilege of parliament or other public bodies shall not be affected by this act. In actions for libel the defendant shall be at liberty to pay money into court in discharger f the action. When the sum paid into court is not accepted by the plaintiff in discharge of his action, the defendant may require the plaintiff to give security for coats. When the damages in an action of libel do not exceed fivs pounds, the plaintiff shall not get more costs than damages. Without the sanction of the law officer of the crown, no private prosecutor shall be at liberty to prefer an indictment for any libel other than a libel published with intent to extort. The defen dant on the trial of an in or information for libel may offer himself as a witness, and so may the defendant's wife or husband. The truth of a libel may be pleaded is a abort form. When so pleaded the plaintiff may get • bill of particulars of what is intended to be relied upon by the defendant. The act is not to extend to Scotland. CoNYEAIIoN AND AIMOLUTION.—Tho following— according to the monthly paper of the Protestant Allianoe— is a copy of a printed paper issued from one of the churches in London :—" Saint Alban the Martyr, Hulhorn.—A priest will attend in the sacristy to hear confessional at the following times :—Wednesday : 10 a.m. to 12.30, 2.30 to 7.4. i, and after evening service ; for any who may desire it.
