Mr. Lindley appeared for Colonel Knox ; Mr. Townsend I Mr. Gye. The court consented so to vary the minute that the .count should include the loss suffered from the burning f the old theatre. LAWRIIT. Mb. was ok *poll by the olefendants from the decree of 3Lustrr o f the nulls. The facts were shortly as fol. l”ws :- The plaintiff war the occupier of a hoi..e at and the defendanta were owner. of an iron 1..1at.-ail manufactory in that neighbourhood. The wit If‘afi io.tituted for an injunction to restrain h.• defend.ints from so carrying on their business be a nuisance to the plaintiff, who complained that h.• smoke, noise. And efifuvia caused by the works. pre. elite,' his household enjoying their home in health nd comfort. The defendants contended that smoke 1"110 w.,5 not a ground for an injunction, that suse alone would not support a prayer for one, 1,4 Oft% la alone would not be enough. and that . . . . all thi ee causes together would not be suthe c ient to summit case. At the same time they denied the rsistence of an) . such nuisance as that complained of, and hrtber alleged that their present factory was only an ad dition tu their former one, in the working of which the ac. mieseed, and that he came to the alleged nui ',lice soil not the nuisance to him. The evidence, how. ,rcr. showed that although before the defendants' corn- seinelltimir new works, there WM more or less smoke in the neighbourhood, the smoke from their prese nt f.,etory had produced a decided change in that state of things, and had seriously interfered with the plaintiff's enjoyment of his house and garden, and that while the old works were mere workshops their new works were large factories. The Master of the Rolls grankd the injunction, whereupon the defendants appealed. Mr. Jewel, Q.C., and Mr. Everitt, in support of the appeal ; Mr. Southgate, Q.U., and Mr. Robinson for the Ilia lordship having stopped the argument of counsel, suggested that there should be a trial at common law. He hit - that he could not dispose of the case - satisfacto . without • jury. After consultation it was agreed to adjourn the further consideration of the matter until a trial had taken place before a jury at Stafford. JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL THE REV. T.

The plaintiff in this case, Mrs. Tilbury, is the widow of th late Mr. Tilbury, but is better known to the public as N. Lydia Thompson, and the defendants are Miss Marie nlitoll and Mr. Byron, the lessees of th e P r in e e o f Wales's T.,,tre, and the action wail to recover damages for hreach of an engagement to continue the services of Thompson at that theatre. The defendants pleaded aiseral pleas, and among them that the plaintiff hail re f.,' to obey certain orders and that this justified the ila , ..ndints in dismissing her. Mr. llivldleston, Q.C., Mr. Joyce, and Mr. M. appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Serjeant Ballantine and Mr. Manby Sniith for the defendants. Mr. lloddlesto4, in opening the case, stated that in September last Miss Thompson was engaged to play at the Fence of Wales Theatre at 15f. a week, and at Easter the defendants were about to bring out Magic Toys, in which Mrs Thompson had been in the habit of playing the part of the young gentleman who engages the affections of the necromancer's daughter. Some years before she had in this piece danced the Shadow Dance which was really an operatic dance, and not strictly in her line, but for fiv e or six years she h ad ceased to dance this dance. A good deal of correspondence took place be tween the parties, and in the end Miss Thompson declined to dance this particular dance, and thereupon she was dis missed from her engagement. It was for this dismissal that damages were uow claimed. Miss Lydia Thompson was called and said—Mr. Ander son introduced the subject of the engagement to me when I was at Liverpool, and on the 17th August at Manchester, I wrote the memorandum of agreement, and sent it to On the return of peat I received a paper, te.l the lath August, signed by the defendants.

The dealings in the Stock Exchange to-day are upon a limited scale, and prices present few changes. The English funds are flat, and have declined f per cent. owing to a preponderance of sales, chiefly bona fide. Home railways opened at a fresh improve ment, and, although a reaction has since taken place, prices in several cases are better than yester day. Foreign stocks show dulness, and some of the speculative descriptions are slightly worse. Banking, financial, and miscellaneous shares are neglected. The scrip of the new Chilian loan is quoted par to 1 prem., hut no transactions have' yet been reported. 1 The demand for money is active, and the supply limited, as usual on the last day of the quarter. The rate for good bills is firm, at 2f to per cent. A large amount of business has been transacted at the Bank. The charge on the Stock Exchange for loans for a few days, on English government securi ties, is 2/ .. , per cent. Consols are now quoted 94g to 1 , ex div., for money, and 94 to 8, ex div., for the ac count ; 'and the Three per Cents. Reduced and New Three per Cents., 93} to „. The foreign stock market is rather dull. and a reduction off per cent. is observable in Turkish of 1865, Spanish Passive, and the Committee's Certificates. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 59 to 60 ; ditto Five per Cents. of 1865, Al to ; Greek, 141 to 15 ; Spanish Passive, 24 to 1 ; ditto Certificates, 158 to 1; Italian of 1861, 11 to 52 ; and Mexican, 14 to f.

The amount of busines in bank shares is exceed ingly small, and prices generally exhibit no variation. The Maremmana Railway was opened fro]; Nunziatella to Civita Vecchia on the 22nd of June, and the communication by rail way between Florence and Rome through Leghorn is thus completed. A preparatory trip was made on the 16th, when the constructors entertained a large party of their friends at a collation at Montalto. Two O'C LOCK. Consols have experienced a fresh reduction of per cent., the present prices being 944 to g, ex div., for money, and 94g to ex div., for the account. The government broker yeeterday completed his operations this quarter for the sinking fund by the purchase of 7,5001. New Three per Cents. On account of the total sum (337,723/.) to be disposed of, 266,500/. of stock has been taken. A new Chilian Loan for 1,109,700/., bearing 7 per cent. interest, has been announced. This loan is not, it appears, an addition to the debt of Chili, but a transfer from the inter nal to the external debt. It will be recollected that in February last, shortly after the Chilian go vernment Six per Cent. Loan for 2,000,0001. was introduced, the existence of this Internal Loan Conversion debt and the contemplated sale of the Converted Bonds on this market, became known, and gave rise to some discussion. An official explanation was given by Signor Errs zuriz, then the agent of the Chilian government, and now we believe its accredited representative to this country, to the effect that in August, 1866, the loan in question was contracted at Santiago (under the authority of a law of the republic of the 24th September, 1865) by the Minister of Finance, with certain of the local bankers, for 5,604,600 dole., and it appeared that the contract gave to the lenders the option of converting their Internal Dollar Loan in the External Sterling Loan repre sented by bonds payable, both as regards principal and interest, in this country. It was at that time further stated that Messrs. J. S. Morgan and Co., the agents for the Six per Cent. Sterling Government Loan of 1867 had, with a view of protecting as far as possible the interest of the subscribers to that loan, entered into negotia tions with the holders of the Internal Conversion Bonds, which resulted in au agreement to the effect that those Bonds, if and when offered for public subscription, should be offered on terms equivalent to those on which the Sterling Government Loan was issued by them, and, further, that in allotment a preference should be given to the holders of bonds or scrip of that loan. Subsequently it appeared that through the intervention of Messrs. J. S. Morgan and Cu., representations were made to the holders of the Internal Converted Bonds and to the Chilian government with a view to those securities being withdrawn from the London market. It appeared, however, that the bonds had in the meantime had been so dealt with by the original holders that it was impossible to effect any arrange ment for their continuing to represent an internal debt, and, consequently, they are now offered for public subscription at 92 per cent., by Messrs J. S. Morgan and Co. 483,3001. has been subscribed by parties in Chili, so that 626,7001. remains for allot ment. It will be observed with satisfaction that the Milian government have come under an en gagement that no new loan shall be issued in oope within at least two years from January, 1867. -- • The amount of gold sent into the Bank yester day was 75,0001. The Cuba has arrived from Boston with 35,0001. in specie. The bar silver and Mexican dollars by the steamer Rhone were sold yesterday for the Con tinent, at .Is.

At Paris, Hamburg, and Frankfort, the rate of discount in the open market is 2 per cent. ; at Amsterdam and Berlin, ; at Vienna and Turin, 5 ; at Brussels, 2 j ; and at St. Petersburg, 8 per cent. The Board of Trade returns for the month ending 31st May are issued. The following shows the declared value of the exports of British and Irish produce and manufactures for the month of May in the last three years : May, 1805 213,194,758 18re; 186115,40,131 15.934,864 It will be seen from this comparison that the export trade is somewhat larger than it was at the corresponding period of last year, when the panic was still raging, and that a very large in crease is shown over 1865. Extending the com parison, however, to the tire month. of the present year, it follows that there has been a check to the export trade, as compared with last year. The figures are subjoined : Fire months, 1865. 00,901,576 1866 78,227,710 18b7 72,123,383 As regards imports, the value of the principal articles for the first four months of the last three years is returned as under, showing similar move ments to those presented by the exports ; Four mouths, 1/018. 99 1866. 1867. . £.45,X17,650 66,804,895 .. 60,166,150 . .

With reference to the action brought against the Panama, New Zealand, and Australian Royal Mail Company (Limited), by Lord Gilbert Kennedy for a return of the amount paid by him on his shares, and the action of the company against his lordship to obtain payment of calls, the points involved in which were recently argued in the Court of Queen's Bench, we are informed that a unanimous judg ment has been delivered in favour of the company in both cases. The warrants for the interest for the six months ending the 30th inst. on the com pany's debentures will be payable on and after Monday, the lit July.

THE POLICE COMM. (THIS DAY.) WORSHIP-STREET. ASNAULT WITH A NWORD. Ueowrr Besi,44, a collector of rents, debts, &c., living at 12, l'pper Homerton-terrace, Hackney, was brought before Mr. Ellison, on a warrant, wherein he was charged with having violently :vaulted and wounded one Evan Magness, 7(1 years of age, by striking hint with a sword. Mr. I:raves, titan the offices of Mr. Vann, appeared for the complain a nt: and Mr. Abbott defended. The matter arose out of law proceedings, thus detailed by the aged complainant-1 am a bailiff's assistant, and live at 10, New-street, Bishopsgate. On the 19th inst. I was left in possession at the defendant's house by an officer of the Shorelitch County Court, in virtue of a warrant of execution issued by the Southwark County Court, and transferred to that of tiboreditch. Mr. Graves—What time did you go' Complainant—About 2 o'clock. Mr. Gr.t%es—Now tell me what defendant said and did. Witness - lie was nut in, so I went into the kitchen and waited. He returned home about 10 o'clock, and seeing me said, " Hallos! What do you want?" I produced the warrant, and replied, ** I want 2f. 2s. (id. and Is. (id. expenses." Mr. Graves—Well, what did he then do? Witness th, he became fearfully violent, looked at me terrible, and coming right up to me said, " Out you go." Then be shoved me upstairs. Mr. G raves--Upstairs where to Witncs explained that the kitchen where he bad been was underground, and continued—When he got tee into the passage he appeared to reflect and feel ashamed of himself—in fact, he calmed down a good bit. Mr. Graves—Well, what then? Witness—What ? Why what greatly astonished me, he actually invited me where Inever expected to go again. Mr. i:raves—Where was that? Witness—Why, down into the kitchen again and have supper with him. Mr. Graves—And you did? Vitness—l'ickled pork, pia, and eabhage ho had, not I, and when he had finished he went up stairs, but re turned in a few minutes with a sword, " Now," says he again, " out you go," and draws the sword from the scabbard. " Mr. Reston," says I, '' whatever are you going to do?" "I'll show you," says he, and made a blow which I warded off, but the second blow fell on the back of my hand and cut it. After that he again pushed me up stairs, did sot stop in the passage but forced me into the street. My hand was bleeding (wound shown), but I made no alarm. I was greatly terrified and next day applied for a warrant. The solicitors subsequently agreed that defendant should pay ills. as compensation, together with costs and ex pellee*. GREENWICH. HAKIM OF rr.umir AGAINST A POLICE-CONSTABLE. ' Thome,. Horatio Halsted, a police-constable of the R division, stationed at Rotherhithe, was charged with steal ing a quantity of leather, the property of Mr. John Howes, of the railway arches, Blue Anchor-road. It appeared that at 2 o'clock in the morning the pri soner, whose beat extended past the railway arches in question, went to the prosecutor's residence, closely adjacent, and called him up, telling him he bad found the door of the arch, in which hides of leather were kept, opened. The prosecutor got up and went to the arch and counted the hides, but failed to discover that any had been taken away. At 6 o'cock the same morning the defendant left duty and re turned to the single men's apartments at the Rotherhithe station. There being no lock on the cupboard assigned for his use, the prisoner asked Police-constable Buttell, 249 It, to take charge of 19 pieces of leather. This Buttell refused to do, but communicated what he had seen to Inspector Moore, by whom the prisoner was questioned, when he at first denied having any leather in his possession, but subsequently he admitted it. The prosecutor was then communicated with, and the leather in stock being weighed was found to be deficient in weight exactly in proportion to the pieces found in possession of the pri soner ; and on the case being reported to the Chief Com missioner of Police he was given into custody. The prisoner was remanded until Wednesday next for completion of the depositions. A MAN IMPALED ALIVE AT BROMLEY. (THI.I DAY.) A shocking accident occurred at Bromley be tween 10 and 11 o'clock this forenoon. It appears that a painter named John Bolton, aged 56 years, residing in the St. Peter's-road, Bromley, was this morning employed to clean the windows of a gentleman's house in the Priory road, Bromley, and while he was seated on the window ledge in front of the boner his foot knocked against the wainscoting inside the window, and he then lost his balance and fell backwards. The sight was a horrible one, for nit legs were thrown up in the air, and while he was turning a summersault he was dashed with great force against the long sharp spikes of the area railings and two of them entered his body. He was lifted o ff b y some men who ran to his assistance, end was carried to the London Hospital,where he was at once recognised as a man who had been admitted to the hospital twelve months ago for a severe fracture of the skull which he had received by falling from a window ledge on to the pavement. On that occasion be was painting. Mr. Walker, the hospital surgeon, made an examination of the unfortunate man's wounds, and found that the spikes had penetrated his lungs, and that be was in a very dangerous state. This afternoon his life was despaired of. A few days ago the University of Halle cele brated the 50th anniversary of its re-anion with the more ancient college of Wittenberg, which, from once being the place wherein Luther resided and taught, had dwindled to insignificance at the beginning of this century. On this festal occasion Count Bismarck, General Roon, and General Moltke, with some other gentlemen of distin guished merit, were promoted to the degree of Philosophi Doctor artiuwque liberslium Magister, by the philo sophical faculty of the university. The law faculty, which on the same day conferred the highest honours in its gift upon Mr. John Stuart Mill, refused to bestow the like upon Count Bismarck, whose achievements the member* were of opinion are not so striking in the department of COLONEL WiLsoN-PArrEts, M.P.—Colonel Wil son-Patton, )LP. for North Lancashire, having accepted the office of Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, has issued an address to his constituents, soliciting re-clection. After speaking of the praise due to Lord Stanley for his management of foreign affairs, he proceeds to state that in order to contribute to a settlement of the reform ques tion, he has not only abandoned some of his former opinions, but has been prepared to give his best attention to suggestions for the amendment of the bill now before the House of Commons, without a strict regard to party considerations. He thinks the bill is now essentially the bill of the house, and is prepared to take his share of any responsibility which may fairly attach itself to the further progress of the measure.

By prior Orders in Council the islands of Jamaica, St. Vincent, Grenada, Tobago, Antigua, and Montserrat. and the Virgin I s l an d a were placed under the jurisdiction of the same court. JERUSALEM IN THE M . The Moscow t;o:rttr publishes the following :—" The Belgrade corre spondent of the Golost announces that, while the Turkish Council of Ministers was deliberating on the means of pro. curing money for the Sultan's voyage, one of the digni taries proposed to sell Jerusalem to Russia. We do not know what truth there may be in that rumour, but every body here is convinced that if this sale is not yet effected, it will take place. Negotiations on the subject are said to be in program. between General Ignatief and Asti Paella. The price of Jeruselem and Jaffa is supposed to be fixed at 100 millions of piastres (20 millions of francs)." The Gazette de Prance, remarking on the above, sees:—" Tuis news cannot be true, for Russia must know, in fact, that the catholic world would never permit that purchase."

Theques tn presented was this—la a MAUI pommies' of less thaa one-half negro blood a " white male person," a. described in the State Constitution! Judge Brewer delivered en elaborate opinion on the question, admitting that by com mon consent the class to which the plaintiff belonged had heretofore been deemed excluded from the constitutional provision, and bad nowhere within the State been allowed to vote. He argued, however, that when the question was raised to which of two races a person belongs who has the blood of each, he is properly adjudged to belong to that race whose blood preponderates in him. He accordingly rendered the decision that the plaintiff a vote was im properly rejected, and ordered that judgme nt be rendered in his favour, with nominal iinunices for oue cent.
