TilE LANQUEr TO M. BERRIER. Laic night M. Berryer, the distinguished French sdive.ar, was entertained oy the tbibt of England at &splendid banquet in the hall of the Middle Temple. Large as are the capacities of the hall, the apace was quite insufficient to eceomroudste the members of the English bar who were de sirous of participating In the honour which was about to be conferred on one of the great illnatnitions of forensic do views in France. With M. Berryer was associatedon this ercseion M. Dcsmarest, batonuier of the French bar, and M. Corod, a young French barrister. There were aver 400 members of tto English bur present. The company included, theATlOß.\tt•t LI4 kiLll, who occupied the chair. When M. Berryer entered the hall he was loudly cheered. Grace were sung before and after dinner by the choristers of the Temple Church. The CiI.IIRSIAN proposed the "Health of the Q 11060," which was eotbusiestically drunk, as was the " Health of their E s.i II igi,nesses the Prince of Wales, the Prinaess of Wales. and the rest of the Royal Family." The CII.%IIOIAN, in giving the health of the Emperor of the Freucii, said—l now propose that we shouldashow our respect to the great nation to which our distinguished guests belong, and our estimate of the value we attach to our frieudl) .I;iiitt•Clf with that aeon. I give you the " Health I ef their sovereign the Emperor of the French." (Cheers.) The toast was drunk with euthasiann. ]be C111411:MAH, propsing the next toot, said—Thin are three great and inestimable things which we enjoy in this country, and we should be glad to see all ethers enjoy in the rent of the world. lint I venture to say t'oot wherever any one of the three is found there public liberty cannot be extinguished. What are those three things !—• free press, a free parliament, sod • free bar. (Cheers.) Now, I must Say that I believe there is 110 country in the wurel the bar of which has deserved greater honour than the liar of France—(cheers)—aud I *culture that I shall Barry your assent with me when I add, that at no period in the brilliant history of that great nation has there been at the head of that bar a more honest, a more sinuous, a more eloquent, or a inure persevering advocate than our illustrious guest. (Cheers.) His name is connected, in a way which time will never dis sever, with the history of his country. At the age when most tneu hegiu their legal studies, this great man began a great public career which to this day be his continued to fulfil. The son of a father scarcely lees distinguished than I himself, he was the advocate of Marshal Ney io the time of the ascoodaucy of those principles of which my illustrious friend has ever been the faithful edvocate. (Cheep.) But the ascendancy of those principles did not prevent him from opposing to the utmost the exorbitant and excessive abuse of power. (Cheers.) Not only on that great historical °erasion, but in the defence of other distinguished men involved in like misfortune, did M. Berner stand forw.a..l, and it is well karma to you that whilst his own political principles were in the ascendant, his voice was ever bused for is ederation and fur justice to those whose fortunes were then on the decline. (Beer, hear.) We have nothim; to do with the various vicissitudes in the political fortunes of that great country, except on this occasion to ; admire the consteney and nobility of the man who unde r all aimunuitances bore himself so well. Afterwards, when I his primly's% were no longer in the ascendant , he did not retire calmly from the service of his country ; his voice was still raised bravely, yet without any possibility of accusing I him of being the advocate of disorder on the side of liberty I and egkfust the prevailing powers ; and still, when called upon at the bar, he was found to be j equally the willing and the fearless edemas' of any uofortunate men in any station of life. Why, it is almost o volume of history Wolf to say that this distin guished man was the advocate of Lamennais, of Chateau. hriand, end of the present Emperor of the French. (Cheers.) These men, and many more, whatever their opinions might j have been—when they needed a word to be spoken for them . —to whom did they go! They went to M. Berryer, and when the wheel of fortune turned round again we find him the same men, never refusing his services to his country in any way he c icsidered them useful. Still he lifted up his voice as tee advocate of freedom, of writing and free speech, j as in the famous trial of Count de Mootalembert. (Cheers.) j At an advauced age he is still sustaining not only the dig. pity, het the power, the influence, and the brilliancy of his younger days. (Hear, hear.) But I feel that I have de tained you too don s ; from that which is much more desirable than to hest his eulogium feebly expressed by me—the honour of that drinking his health, of wishing him a cordial ' welcome, and then hearing from his own lips an example of that unrivalled eloquence for which he is famed. (Cheers.) The toast having been drunk with much enthusiasm, M. MFERYER spoke io French. We give, however, a totoslatiou of his remarks :—" You will believe me when I tell you that I am deeply moved at the • aspect of this imposing and almost fraternal recep tion. (Cheers.) I find myself in the midst of great ' and free Eugiand ; you will not be astonished that there ahoulsi lie 10(119 confusion in my manner of expressing fey thanks. Yesterday, Mr. Attorney• General, I congratulated • you, and I cougratulate this great and eoble country on seeing the.t ttorney-General—a rare spectacle for us—display. log a zeal as enlightened es wise in seconding associations which have fur their object the perfecting of the law. (Cheers.) To-day, as advocate, lam moved at seeing you speak as chief of the bar, in toe name of the advocates ; grand and beautiful spectacle which reminds me that such was the custom of my country when the Frocureurs. General and the Advocates-General called themselves generals of the advocates. In speaking to me in the name of the English bar you deign to compliment me upon the labours of my life. I confess that I feel hnniiliated by these compliments. I call to mind what English advocates have been, those who have honoured me with their friendship ; what was Lord Lyndhurst, whose lose we all deplore—(ceeers)—and that other great man who was ready to initiate me in all the grand things of this country, that noble promoter of all progress, of all linen' iustitutions even in this free England, that great nine whew I recognise in Lord Brougham. (Loud cheers.) After fifty yens' 1 ibours I received from my French oolleagces a teeinisey of fraternal sympathy. But there I was is the midst of my own countrymen ; I was sus tained by fifty years' friendly relation. I repeat that I was with my own countrymen ; but by your side, I know not how to express what I feel. However, let me attempt to any what I feel : it steles to me that it is the voice of posterity that falls from your lips. (Cheers ) Tilers is • thought more fruitful for the future than beinage rendered to au individual man ; there is the ellieoco of the bars of the two moat civilised nation. of the world. 1 have been present in all the courts cf justice vi your country, at all the judicial deliberations, and I have biro struck with the situation which your tf.r occupies. N,•Cliug could touch me more thin those familiar ee.vereitions between the judge and the advo cate. That shows to the advocate the attention which is accor le 1 to Liu', end I see in it a guarantee for the sereitueut lof independence which should belong to this noble profession. I cherish ardent wishes that the alliance of the two ban may 1 e lamented. (Cheers.) We cannot in France have those re. unions which the law authorises' in this country ; but we can place °fleecing in communication with each other, and from these communications will spring, I hope, toe ui, het of intelligencss. The F. eoch Ler has not, like the English bar, furnished meo for all the situations of political life. In the midst of our revolutions men who respect themselves have not wished to accept officer. The bar has remained the asylum of those who, wounded in their convictions, did not desire to vis:.l. We reckon among its number the most eminent men. ((been.) 'We posses. free trade ; was most not limit ourse'v-s to the exchange of kilo .• .! there must be the free exchange of ideas.

(Loud cheers.) bare carried intellectual glory to a greet height ; both hare shone in public neenales ; lasalj, both are members of the French Academy. (Cheers.) I confer that I should be ocucerned if I had to present here only the tribute of my own gratitude. But se soon as I was informed of your I kind invitation, I profited by the legal meetings autho rimed in Franca to tell our advocates of the honour which bad been paid. All, young and old, replied, 'Go to England.' I had not time to consult the mem bers of our . provincial bar, bat all would have held the same language—all. I see the grand spectacle of the judicial world of Franca giving its band to the judicial world of England—a preliminary step to the bringing about a more intimate alliance between us, according to the beautiful idea of him who ought to be our perpetual Wormier, and who always is our moral &skinnier. Gentlemen—permit me to say my dear colleagues —yon have set us an example, and rest assured that it will be followed. One of your statesmen, the illustrious Chancellor of the Exchequer, said on a recent oceasioo, with that Moomparable eloquence which recalls the best days of antiquity, that in the time in which we live the progress of civilisation should be accom plished by more gentle means—gentler than in past times. These words. which meet many difficulties, h►ve found an echo in France. I sign with you a treaty of ,alliance, which will serve for the pacific conquest .1 progress." (Loud cheers.) M. GoROD also returned thanks. The CitetzYaa proposed the health of the guests, coupling with the toast the Dame of Lord Brougham. (Cheers.) Lord BROOOIIAII, in returning thanks, said—Sir, you have ruy hearty thanks for thitgreet kindness with which you have proposed, and you, gentlemen, have received the proposal, of my health. It is only the respect which I Dever fail to receive among that profession of which I have the honour to be a member. On all occasions I meet with the greatest respect, and what is even more valuable, the greatest affection of that noble profession to which we both belong. On the present occasion your attention is called to other guests, sod more especially to that illustrious man who ails near me-51. Berryer. To whom should I com pare bins! Not certainly to any of the advocates of ancient and classical times, but to one very superior to them all — to our own Erskine—(clumers)—the first advocate who ever appeared in the world, and I put M. Berryer on a level with him. (Hear, bear.) I have carefully attended to the careers of both of these gentlemen, sod I find that both Lord Erskine sad IL Berryer possess that great faculty of conducting cause* with perfect skill and with matchless eloquence ; they had both that quality M per fection,! and, in equal proportion, indomitable courage. (Cheers.) As to Lord Erskine, however pressed, there was Done he feared, neither the court nor the King (bear, beta)—but be did his duty to his cheat in spite of all that power held out to intimidate, and in spito of all the opposition even in those courts in which he prac tised, and of which he was the ornament and pride. And the same great qualities I have constantly observed in AL Berryer—that which is the first of all the duties of an advocate—to reckon everything subordinate to the interests of his client--(bear, hear)—to have no purpose except to serve his cause effectively, to make no devia tion, no digression to please either jury, or judge, or the populace, or the crown, but to do his duty, looking only to the success of his client. (Cheers.) It has been said that the administration of jastios In this country pommies a great advantage over that of many other nations, and that depend s partly no doubt, in the first place, upon the purity of our judges; but, in the next place, on the skill, the prudence, the discretion, and the courage of the advocate. (Cheers.) I can see no worse fate before the country than its losing the purity of its administration of justice ; nothing more tending to this than anything trenching on the independence of the bar, or which may weaken that courage of the advocate of which such an illustrious example is now among us. (Hear.) Of the orators in the French Senate, our esteemed guest, IL . Barrier. is one of the most distinguished ; bat it is his crown. ing glory that in every instenoe in which he has been engaged as an advocate he bus put down, with the force of bie learning, his eloquence, and his courage, all attempts to injure or oppose his fellow-citizens, (Cheers.) I have de tained you too long—(cries of "No, no")—but I could not, having teen called mpou, sit down without offering to you the expression of my sentiments. (Cheers.) The next tout was, "The Jadsse of Eogl►nd," which w►s acknowledged by Lord Chief Justice COCGI3I:II.V. The CHAIIUUN then race and said—There is one more toast which the presence amongst us of other illustrious and eloquent guests on this occasion has rendered necessary. It is a toast on all occasions Englishmen are glad to drink-1 mean the two houses of parliament. (Cheers.) The Lords and Commons of &stead, with which I beg to couple the name of one of our most honourable and learned judges -1 mean Lord Kingsdown—(cheers)—and one of our most illustrious statesmen, whose presence on this occasion I sup pose we owe to the happy accident of his also being con structively a judge—(a laugh)—l mean Mr. Gladstone. (Loud cheers.) Lord KLNOSDOWN briefly returned th►du for the House of Lords. Mr. tiLaDSTONT., who wee received with cheers again and again renewed, said, in the course of his reply—l have known, . &sail in this country have known, that the bar too is inn parable from the national life and the perfect security of our isstatutions ; but never, as long as f looked at England ►lone, did I understand the true secret of its value. It was my fate came fifteen years ago to be witness of ' cruel oppressions in a country in Southern Europe, in • country where the executive power did not merely break the law, but supplanted and set aside the law, and es tablished blabbed • system of arbitrary will. But, to my astonishment, I forted that the audacity of tyranny itself, which b►d put down Chamber., which had put down mini- I cipalities, which Lad extinguished the press, could not put down 'one thing—and that was that it could not silence the bar. (Great cheering.) I heard in the cocas of justice, under the bayonets of the soldiers—for thes e courts bristled with the bayonets of soldiers--in the teeth of power, in contempt of corruption, in defiance of violence, li of arbitrary rule, lawyers rise in their *cm to defend the cause of the accused against government, and venture to speak with • fearless honesty of purpose that could not have been surpassed in happy England, and that could scarcely have been surpassed by M. Berryer himself, (Cheers.) lie knows well, no man knows better, that we are not here to enter into and discuss the merit' of parti cular schools of political opinions. We are here for more purposes than one, and one of those purposes I confidently believe is to render and add another to the many testi monies which recent history has afforded of the growth of • cordial union of heart and sentiment between tbe two great nations of England and France. (Loud cheers.) We are here also to render • more special homage to an object more narrowly defined. As there are ties which bind together classes of the same country, so there are electric currents which, passing over the boun daries of political distinctions, establish sympathies which run through the world. (Cheers.) These sympathies are deep in the heart of our illustrious guest aria his distin guished companions, and these sympathies throb with an equal truth and power within the breast of every member of this assembly. lam permitted—and a high privilege it is—to look upon you from without; Lut I echo Lack at least the sounds of favour, confidence, and admira tion which have been rendered to M. Berryer personally for the great achievements of his life ; but yet, great as that life has been, not to that life only for what it has been and is in itself, but to that life because it is a symbol of something greater still—namely, of the indestructibl e priori, .les which are involved in the constitution of a free and independent bar, namely, of the high obligations to speak, under all circumstances, the voice of truth, and to follow truth through whatever difficulty and danger ; to have faith in the moral force which my eloquent friend near me has so well defined ; and in the belief that ice the , wise counsels of Providence from day to day, as the world grows elder, we may hope te hare by sure, if by slow de grees, the domination of that revival force progressively widened and enlarged, arid to see the rival power of mere brute and barbarous violence gradually assert less [ and less an effective action upon the conduct of man kind. (Loud cheers.) The remaining toasts were " The Committee," responded , to by Sir Fitzroy Kelly, and " The Chairman," proposed by Lord Justice Knight Bruce, and gracefully replied to by the Attorney.

The bill in this ease is filed by • youag lady, still • minor, byname Miss Harriet Frames, Holpte Gedsey, for the outpost of obtaining • declaration of her being the WWI of Mr. Patience Arthur Holgate Gedney, by his late wife, Berrien fi Gedasy, and for the execution of be trusts of two settlements made oa the marriage of Mr. P. A. H. Gedney to hie said wife on the 29th of May, 1851, and by one of which a sum of 2,0001. was settled to the separate use of the wife for life, with remainder so the appointees of the husbead and wife jointly, or (in default) to the w• pointem of the survivor of them, with remands, in default of any appointment, to the child or children of the VOW nap, and (in default of such children) with remainder over to Mr. George Stapylton Smith, the wife's father. (He is now deed, and his representative is the first defendant on the record, Mr. John Appleby Stapyltoo Smith.) The plaintiff claims to be the daughter and only ch il d of Mr. P. A. H. Gedney and his said wife, and to have bees bore on the 10th February, 1854. Mrs. Gedney died on the 18th of March, 1837, and on the 20th of Febru 1863, Mr. P. A. H. Gedney made en appointment of the fund in question in favour of plaintiff, as being his daughter by his mid wife. The defence raised is curious, via, that Mrs. Gedney never had a child at all, but that. not being well treated by her husband, sod thinking that if she were to have • child she might meet with better treatment from him, she did, in the early part of 1857, come up to London anat. tended, as if for the pirpose of being 000 tined, find did, through Dr. Cord, prOarre from • lying ia hospital in London • suppositions child, which she gamed off as her own, such child being, as they my, the plaintiff. Several witnesses were examined viva voce in court for the plaintiff—viz., Dr. Farr, who deposed to having attended Mrs. Gedney io March, 1857, as fora confinement ; Mr. Gedney himself, and also • friend of his late wife. On the other aide, Dr. Gorse, Dr. Grantham, Dr. Porter, sod • number of wo m b. formerly in th e service of Dina Gedney. It may be mentioned that oertaie physical reasons were urged by defendant's counsel against the possibility of plaintiff being the child of Mrs. Gedney, in support of which evidence was given of a character unfit for publi cation. - 41 r: Edward Jamey Q.C., Mr. Selwyn, Q.C., and Mr. Tauter, appeared for plaintiff ; and for the several defeadants, Sir U.

The poor woman had undergone a most unmerited imprieriment for a fortnight, and it wan the opinion of the grand jury that she ought to have some compensation mails to her for the punishment she had received. It appeared that her father and mother had received a ticket which entitled them to relief, but when the father died the mother was still entitled to relief, and when the prisoner went for the relief for her mother, because the father bad died, she was charged with having obtained money and bread by Woe pretences. The grand jury looked upon this as s very scandalous case. The Aristaot Judge read the depositions, and asked the Foreman if these facie had been brought before them by the shiners'? The Foreman said he could tat exactly my, u they bad had a very heavy calendar to deal with ; but it appeared to the grand jury that as the father and mother were entitled to assistance, there was no reason because the father bad died that it should have been refused to the mother. The Aseirtant Judge said be was desirous of kiloliter if all the facts were brought under their notice, for had they beeo, this case ought to be represented to the highest psrochial authorities. SURREY SESSIONS. (Before E. D. Adams, Esq.) William Smith, 16 an oft-convicted thief, sod Edward Hood, 15, were indicted for breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Jabs: Lowe, and stealing therefrom • coat and other articles his property, also two costa and other articles the property of James Cherry, sod a gown skirt and other articles the property of Sophia Hum phreys. It appeared from the evidence that the prosecutor Lowe resided in Brook -street, Lambeth, and on the evening of the 16th his wife bad occasion to go out • short distance on Dodoes.. At that time all the articled; mentioned in the indictment were ads in the lower part of the house, sod she cirefully closed the street door after her. On bee re turn she was surprised to find it open. soil as she was about to enter two young fellows rushed past her, one of them carrying • large bundle. She seized hold of the latter, which proved to be the prisoner Smith, who swore et her, j sod dealt her such • heavy blow on the face that she was compelled to let him go. He was, however, pursued by other parties, end be and the other prisoner were captured, sod brought back to the house with the boodle containing the property described, and identified by her and her two lodgers. She also identified Smith as the young fellow who had the bundle sod assaulted her. Barrett, 47 L, said he stooped Smith in St. Mary s-square, sod saw him throw away the bundle produced. He, how ever, denied ever having it in his possession. Police-coostable 137 L said he saw the other prisoner running away fromßrook-street,ardheariog the cry of "Stop thief." he caught bold of him, and took him to Mr. Lowers house.

The Lord flayo;otiitiinghisseWt in the court yes terday, it being toe last day of his mayoralty, said he could not let this his last opportunity pass without thanking the gentlemen by whom he had been surrounded in this court dunng the past year in Lie ethos as chief inegietrata of the City, for the extreme kindotss and urbanity which they bad on all occasions shown towarda him, and for the cheer ful manner in which they had rendered their services on all occasions when be bad required their aasistsmce to wry out the onerous duties which fell upon him. He could not forbear deploring the late continued absence, through illness, of the chief clerk, Mr. Goodman, who had, after a service of 21 years, been stricken down, and who, although now slightly recovered, be regretted much to say would not again be able to undertake the duties of the office of chief clerk in the justice room. During Mr. Goodman's absence he had received from Mr. Oke the greatest possible assistance ; and together with his and the assistance of the other gentlemen connected with the court, he might say the public service bad not suffered. In conclusion he thanked each gentleman collectively and individually for this kindness, sod likewise the gentlemen connected with the press for the impartiality and correct ness which they bad displayed in laying before the public the mode of the admitistration of justice at this court. _ Mr. Oice, the acting chief clerk, cm the part of himself and colleagues, thanked his lordship for his expression of approval of the mode in which their duties bad been per formed. [lt is understood that Mr. Oke, the second clerk to the court, and the author of "Oke's Magisterial Synopsis," &c., who hu been connected with the court for the last tea years, will be a candidate for the office of chief clerk, left vacaut by the resigoatiou of Mr. Goodman ] WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday, at Worship-street Police-court, just previous to the close of business, a gentleman, whose name did not publicly transpire, accompanied by two others, and a very respectably dressed female, entered the court and took seem in that portion of it appointed for the solicitors. The first person alluded to held some papers which, when an oppor. unity occurred, be handed across the table to Mr. Cuthbert Ellison. the sitting magistrate, at the MIMI time stating them to be declarations of an important character, which he had to request his worship to peruse and alga. Mr. Edison read them atteotively, afterwards remarking that he had very strong doubts indeed as to the propriety of admitting such statemetits as were contained in the documents he held ; he kroidd, however, sign them, and the matter might be received for what it was worth. The gentleman observed that be required no more. The public very well knew that if the staten,enta were false those persons making them were liable to the penalties of perjury. It was necessary that the declarations should be signed. and immediately, as he had to forward them to Sir George Grey early on the following morning. These are the statements in question "1, Andre Maness, Baron de Cumin, of the Rue Riche lieu, Paris, empire of France, gentleman, solemnly and sin. oarely declare that, on 00 9th July. 1t4 . 4, I went to see a friend at Mile-end, and that on my road to the Hackney Wick station I het my way, and while I was wandering about 1 came near the embankment between Hackney Wick and Bow, station, and that I met a working man sod asked him my way, and while he was showing me the way there came np a man blooded from heal to foot. lie was stag geriog.

One of the tails for 141. was draws by the prisoner on John Fouler, of South-place, Norwood, sod pur ported to have been accepted by that person, but on its becoming due no such person could be found at the address given, and on being told this the prisoner said it was his uncle's fault, not his. The acceptors of the ether five bills could sot be found at the addressee indicated, and in fact were merely imaginary personages. Mr. Smith, • corn chandler and bill discounter Kennington-lane, produced three bills which his had discounted for the prisoner, the names of the ac ceptors of which, as in three held by the last witness, were also fictitious ; sad it further ap peared that the prisoner's practice had been to make the bills payable st the residence of those who discounted them, so that as long as he was enabled to take them up there was no necessity for looking after the acceptor. City constable 455 said he took the prisoner into custody in the City on the charge of Mr. Lewis, and the only reply he made to the charge was "I received no benefit by it. Police-constable John Pope, 52 P, said he bad made diligeut inquiries, and could not find out any one of the acceptors of the nine bills produced. The prisoner, who offered nothing in defeuos, was fully committed on both charges. THE LATE EXPLOSION AT ERITH. ADJOURNkIL? INQUEST. After oar report left yesterday, - The Coroner read tb3 following letter from Gemmel Tolloh : "Dear Mr. Hall,—l regret that the state of my health and other circumstances will prevent my attending the ad journed inquest and inquiry relating to the unfortunate ex plosion of -gunpowder at Belvedere. That such a cats strophe should have taken place in the management of gunpowder io which you are concerned, is doubly uofortu- Ditto, for, *peeking from an experience of upwards of twenty years, I have known your works and visited them as the government officer in charge of the Royal Mills, Waltham Abbey. I can safely and willingly, as a matter of justice, bear testimony to your unceasing endeavour to adopt every possible precaution to prevent accidents in every branch of your dangerous calling, so much so that a difficulty arises in my mind as to what additional securities can be devised beyond thole now in force in your gunpowder works, which in this respect, as well as is every other, are second to none in England, and, I might add, in the world. You will, no doubt, agree with me that therein difficulty in doing away entirely with cooking, and consequent lire on board a gun powder barge. Of all the enemies we powder people have to deal with, 1 consider the locifer match the greatest, and no rule* can be too strin gent to prevent their being brought by the men em ployed with gunpowder to any shape, and one simple remedy is that of not allowing the men to have any pockets in their gunpowder dresses. This explosion of a barge on the very bank of the Thames involves a matter for serious consideration se to whether a barge containing gunpowder ought to unload at any jetty by which such • serious in undation of country might take place as that which threatened that side of the Thames, where most of the store-houses for gunpowder are placed. A canal is the only suggestion I can make, to be carried up to a gun powder store placed at the greatest distance from the Thames embankment and all inhabited and other property which the locality will permit. I am sure that, if anyone can suggest a means of preventing such a calamity in future, you will be the first to adopt them, no matter at what expense. I sincerely sympathise with you in this unlooked-for event, " and believe me to be yours faithfully, M.Litt. T. Tchhott. " Sherborne Yilla, West Malvern, Oct. 9, 1514." Mr. Poland also put in the following notice :—" Lucifer matches having been found near the powder houses, any workman bringing lucifer matches on to any part of the works will be instantly discharged. No pocketa are allowed in black clothes. (Signed) Wu.ttatt Ham.. Dated, Sep tember, ISZU 3." At this stage of the proceedings the inquest room was closed for half an hoar while the coroner and jury had a consultation as to the course of proceedings. On the court being again thrown open, Mr. M. D. Pliny, the London agent of the Lowwood Works, was called, and stated that the quantity of powder that was in the Lowwood magazine at the time of the ex plosion was 11,783111ba., or about 4) tons, and there was in addition 550 coils of common blasting fuse. There was never any shot or cartridges in the magazine. Mr. Peter Hall sworn—l reside at Ellekar House, Rich mond. I recollect seeing Rayner in town three years ago. It was en September 7, 1861 I recollect the date, because I wrote a letter to my brother in consequence of his com munication. Rayner told me that be was going to write to ' Mr. Monk about a complaint he had to make of the casks, and I told him to write by all means, but that I would write to my brother by that poet. I did so, sod in reply I received • letter from him stating that he had looked at the barrels, and put the matter right, and bealso asked me to tell Rayner never to send out any barrels with which he bad Loy fault to find. Rayner was one of the most outspoken men that I ever know. I used to see him two or three times • week. He never made any complaint within the last two or three years to me about the barrels. By Mr. Perrin—Rayner boyar returned any casks to my knowledge, but there was a general order to hua to return faulty casks. By the Jury—The present price of a whole barrels is nearly Is. The particular defect complaiued of was worm holes. The Coroner then asked if there was any explanation to be made with respect to the contlictmg evidence given by Mr. Harry and Mr. Pocock. Mr. Harry stated that Mr. Pooock, who had been in court all the morniug. had left, but they had a conversation together, and a mutual explanation had taken place, with which it wu not necessary to trouble the jury, unleis they desired it. The Coroner—Was the explanation satisfactory to you? Mr. Harry—Quite so. Mr. Poland—Tbere was truth on both tides, for though some iron had bees used in the construction of the building handed over to the government it parts where Mr. Pocock did not consider that it was ruatenal to use copper, yet sub stantially copper was used, and the floorirg was laid with copper nails. The Foreman—The jury have no wish whatever to go into that part of the question. . . . The Co;oner then minted that there remained ona witness more to be examined, who could not be present to-day, and it bad been determined to adjourn again. It was then arranged that the inroad should be ftctlier adjourned to Tuesday next. TRAFFIC RETURN& Mlles Pas- Met.

COTTON.—LivriaPoot., Nov. s. —Ws have had a good demeod to-day, and a steady market at the prices corni,t yesterday, with more struimiocy on the part of sellere,f American, who are less inclined to offer their .tacks. it sales are 10,000 bales, of which 5,000 ere for export and ape. culatiee. OOTTON GOODS.—Mancgorrytt, Nor. S.—Our market has been very firm to-day for all kinds of shipping yam* and most spinners ask a slight advance, which has rtr• ; checked business. Mut for this we should have had a t-:: amount doing. la home trade yarns we have had are.. stroll' market, arid though not mach business has effected, prima are pretty much as on Fnday last. 'rt.• yarn market generally closes rather firm, with a der,:..; tendeocy to improvement. Spicners seem pretty may prices, which they appear to think have touched the 1,, ,t point for some Woo to come. The cloth market has rather quiet for some days past, but owing to the bcalc.:y of stocks millers have been able to do a nv.ler.to amount of business at last week's prices. In moat c.ses sellers of cloth are asking for a further Wtly in pncss, which has the effect of checking the desire t../ d business wherever it is pressed.
