The applicant We- roes person and applied append F for • rule calling upon the Law Society to show cause why they should not restore his name ea the rolls of the court, or why the matters mentioned in his affidavit should not be referred to the Master. He was admitted in 1841, and mo tioned to practice till 1861, when he became n clerk in a firm. He renewed his certi&ate from= 169.

In 1862 the applicant was tried and onnistedat the Middlesex sessions for obtain/450L under files pennon, and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. The applicant complained that he had not had a fair trial ; that the money was obtained far partnership parpoess, though his partner denied it, sad that evidence was kept back on the trial which would have proved that fact. The applicant denied that be ever made any false represents, tin to Mrs. Rollos, with reference to the advance of the money, or that be obtained it under a false promise of mar riage. The applicant read a voluminous affidavit, which set forth, with considerable minuteman, the details connected with the circumstances of the can, alter which The Lord Chief Justice said it wee impossible for the court to interfere. Their duty was to uphold the honour of the profession so far as they could, and they would not be doing it if they allowed the name of a person who bed been entwined for obtaining money under false pretences to remain on the rolls of the court or to be re-admitted, and therefore without entering into the merits of the case the fact that a convic tion had taken plan appeared to the court to be an insuper able bar to this application. If, however, the Secretary of state interfered, and did away with the conviction, then the court would readily listen to the application. It might be that as injustice had been dose to him, but the honour of the profession was so mach involved that the court could not atteed to the application so long as the conviction remained unewersed.

A few days since hie wife was sect to this court for being druok, and was sentasioed to two =oaths' hard labour for being in the unlawful posessaion of some property that had been recently stoles. Fora day or two a (app • t's) daughter did up the man's place, sad then be told her, u she thought in a joke, that he should elope with her some toe day, and sure *sough he did, for in the early part of last week she missed them both, and although she made in quiries in every part of the town, she could obtain no tidings of the fugitives. She had since received • letter from them stating that they were at Liverpool, sod had taken a pelage to America, sad the daughter added if eke was oily as comfortable there with her future husband as she bad hitherto been with him, thee all would be well, and her mother need not fret the least about her, for she was conildent her dear,Willy would mot deceive her. The magistrate inquired the age of the applicant's daughter. The applicant said she was 16 about three months sines. She was • tali well-grown girl of her age, and might be taken for 17 or 18. She did not believe that the man intended to take away her daughter when he said so, or she would have taken steps to prevent him accomplishing his object. The magistrate asked what had become of the man's children. . . applicant replied that their aunt bad been seeing to them, but both she and her husband were so poor that they could not afford so support them until the mother came out of prison, therefore it was intended to apply to the work hones authorities to take the children in. _ _ The magistrate, having looked over the act of parliament, maid he could not assist the applicant, as her daughter was above the age of sixteen. She had better apply to the workhouse authorities, who no doubt would take out • warrant for the appreheosioo of the man for the desertion of his childro., sod if he arsa taken perhaps the applicant's daughter woul d return to town. Row was it that the ap plicant had not applied to the court or to the workhouse sothoritieshafore,eo that the man and her daughter might have been prevented from embarking ? The app ant said she had been very busy attending to the waste, of her family, and she wee compelled to get her husbend's meals ready. As hewn heir second, and not the father of the girl that had gone away, of coons he had no interest in her. _ . The magistrate remarked that it was a diocese, if be bad sot ; aad u for the mother's excuse, that vat a very paltry one. She had better apply to the workhoose authorities at owe, who, if it waa not too late, would immediately take the necessary steps for the apprehension of the man. The applicant thanked his worship and left the court, say ing if she had the money she would go to Liverpool and bring her daughter back, and if she would not return she would be the death of bar.

The annual meeting of proprietors, adjourned from the 31st March, was held this afternoon at the London Tavern ; Mr. J. J. CI2IIIIIXB presiding. The Cfraranur stated that as the board had only just en reeved the despatch senoneeMg the return of Mr. Henniker, their commissioner, they had nothing further to comment. ode with respect to the plan for the sale of metalliferous lends. The general effect of the project was to sell those lands io tugs portions, and he believed the result of the negotiations would be satisfactory. The metalliferous lauds were the rocky lands which had hitherto been considered the least valuable part of their pro perty, and so many persons were attracted to the district as to call the attention of the legialettus to the subject. Gold diaeresis@ had been made in some part, and the usual **editions have bees imposed by the government in these mess. The report was adopted, and the Mir* dir' actors re minded. EXECUTION FOR MURDER.-(THIS DAT.) The wretched young man John Devine, who was oetvioted at the last malice of the Central Orimissi Conn of the crime of wilful murder, underwent the last penalty of the law this morning at Nonage. The circumstances of the crime for which the culprit inflated will be so fresh in the recollection of the publio that it will only be necessary to state that he was 000victed of having deliberately murdered an old man named Joseph Duck as he was returning to his own home at a late hoar at night. Haring felled him to the ground by three Me meadow blows on the heed with an iron her, which bad been previously stolen by the prisoner from the tap room of a public-house, where it was used as a poker, the pri soner robbed him of all the money and other property in his poeserisioo. The poor old man after the attack that was made upon him, sod he died on the, same day ; under these cironnistances the prisoner became amenable to the charge of wilful murder, though it is very possible that in the first instance he only intended to ■ton the deceased and reader him incapable of recognising him. The jury recommended the prisons* to mercy on this ground, but the offence in every aspect was of such an aggravated character that this recommendation had no effect, and Mr. Justice Wilke. who trici the prisoner, is understood to have expressed his opinion that the sentence ought to be carried out. The feeling of the public generally seems to have been the lame with regard to the cane, sad no efforts have been made to procure a commutation of the culprit's sentence. The sheriffs, in the ordinary course, forwarded the recommendation of the jury to Sir G. Grey, and formally called his etiolation to the ease, bat the armor returned was that he conld see nothing to justify him in recommending the reprieve of the prisoner. For a considerable time after his conviction the unhappy young man was in a state of greet despondency, but whole he became aware that no hope remained, ►ad that his fate was inevitable, he seems to have rallied, and exhibited a good deal of &MINNS. It has already been stated that he made a toll ecafsmioe of his crime, and there is very little to be added to what hem already appeared upon the subject. The culprit down to the last moment continued to assert that he did not intend to kill the deceased and that hunger and distress drove him to commit the crime of robbery. He stated that the deceased knew him very well, and th►t being afraid of recognition he struck him on the head in order to render him senseless. The prisoner was asked upon sue oc casion by Mr. Sheriff Cave whether be was sot very angry at the deceased having refused to join in the subscription that was made for him at the public-house on the night of the murder, and whether he did not entertain some feeling of malice towards the deemsed on that account ; and the prisoner, after some haeltatices, admitted that t►is was the feet, but still resorted that be had no inteetiou to kill him. Noce the time of the culprit having made the admission of his goat he appeared a good deal relieved ; and, strange to 'ay, he seems to have slept soundly every sight He went to bed on Sunday night about 11 o'clock. and slept soendly until nearly 5 o'clock this morning. Soon after ward' he was visited by the Rev. Mr. Davis, the ordinary, who continued with him down to the last moment. The sheriffs, Marrs. Nissen sod are, accompanied by the nadereeheriffs, Mews. Nide°leen and Gammon, arrived at the prison shortly before 8 o'clock. They were res. mired by Mr. Jona', the governor, the Rev. Mr. Davis, and Mr. Humph:eye, the principal warder, who molded them to the cell, where the ceremony of pinionieg was to be performed. The culprit seemed remarkably firm and eomposed, and while Calmat, the executioner, was in the act of pinioning him, be coolly remarked to him that his sbirtmollar was pissed behind. He shook hands with Mr. Jonas, and thanked hinkfor his kindesees and he elm thanked the sheriffs. Mr. Sheriff Cam, addressing the prisoner, said he was glad to am that be appeared to be In a state of mind befitting his negates, and asked him whether he thooght he had made hie pews with God. He said be be lieved he had, and that he should receive forgivable* of the Almighty for the crime he had committed. Mr. Sheriff Cave inquired what made him think this; and he replied that be mould not state exactly, bat he seemed to feel an inward emaciation that having sincerely repented he should obtain forgiveor-s. A few minutes before 8 o'clock the officials proceeded to the scaffold, the ordinary, as usual, reading the service for the dead. The culprit walked firmly and mounted the steps leading to the drop without any assistance. The ceremony of adjusting the rope round his peek was soon completed, sod when the platform fell the culprit appeared to be deed sleneret in as. instant. Down to 7 o'clock very few persons bed assembled to witness the execution, sod the spew in front of the gallows wee quite clear. As 8 o'clock approached the number at spectators increased, but still the crowd was not great at nay period. The culprit was only 21 years old, and since he has been in confinement it is stated t h at he increased con siderably in weight. After hanging for an hour the body 1.1111 cut down, and in the afternoon eau brined in one of the purges of the prison. WESLEYAN METHODIST MISSIONARY SO- CIETY MIETING.-(THIS DAY.)

The directors of the Bank of England have to-day raised the minimum rate of dis count from 7 to 8 per Gent. This measure was anticipated, since rates ranging from 71 to 8 per Gent. were charged on Saturday on first-class bills in the open market. The last Bank return was also regarded as unsatisfactory, owing to a further reduction in the coin and bullion. The heavy settlement on Friday in the Stock Exchange may likewise be considered as having contributed towards the present upward movement. The joint stock banks still allow only 5 per cent. for money on deposit. Mews. Overend, Gurney, and Co., allow 5 per cent. for money at call (show ing no change), 6 per cent, with seven days' notice (a rise of I), and 7 per cent. with fourteen days' notice (a rise of 1). As the Stock Exchange is closed today, the prices of public securities have not been affected by the alteration in the rate of discount. On Saturday the demand at the Bank of Eng land discount office was much more active than is usual on a Saturday, and some pressure was ob servable. Consequently the Bank has, it is said, charged in many instances an advance upon the offi cial minimum upon good bills. In the general market the demand was likewise large, and difficulty was experienced in getting even choice paper discounted at 7 per cent, the terms generally demanded vary ing from 71 up to 8 per cent. No operations took place in gold at the Bank on Saturday. The 367,0001,. by the Shannon, from the West Indies, and the 164,000/. by the City of London, from New York, have been purchased for abroad. The Persia hag arrived from New York, with 124,5001. in specie. We are informed that the steamer Great Eastern has been sold to the French for a sum approach ing a quarter of a million sterling. This, however, will not interfere with her present engagements, which include the submersion of the Atlantic cable. The Great Eastern was purchased at Liverpool at auction about three mouths ago for a sum of 25,0001., but, as the mortgage debentures bad been previously bought up, the total cost was probably 70,0001. or 80,0001. There is, however, a very handsome profit on the present transaction. At the time of th; exeitement K in connexion with the Trent affair this vessel took out a very large number of English troops to Canada at a single trip, and in view of her great capabilities for this and similar services, her present transfer altogether from English hands is regarded with regret in some quarters.
