stoo ~•~; , . 4 THE SICK POOR IN WORKHOUSES. The disclosures made through the agency of the Sick Poor Association are apparently on the in erease. Following on the inquiry at the Strand 'Union have come Mrs. Becton's statements con corning Rotherhithe and the inculpation of Pad dington ; while these details have been succeeded in their turn by similarly untoward revelations re specting Whitechapel. Allegations of a very cir cuinstantial character having come before the committee of the asa.eciation, a communication was made to the metropolitan poor-law inspector, and, on the adjournment of the Rotherhithe inquiry on Friday afternoon, Mr. Fermin and Mr. Ernest Hart paid an unexpected visit to wards 5 and 6 of the Whitechapel W orkhouse. Neither the master nor pauper nurse was allowed to be present during this investigation, so that the patients were able to answer the questions put to them without fear or favour. The result will be anticipated by our readers. Neglect and cruelty of the most aggravated kind were once more brought home to parochial authorities, and without particularising individual cases, it may be stated that every de tail of horror brought before the association—me dical attendance so inadequate as to be a mockery, au utter lack of nursing, and of the cleanliness we should ensure to swine ; a diet in some cases so meagre as to fully justify the " I'm not likely to get well when I'm half starved r' groaned out by the occupant of one of the beds ; au absence of classification so complete that a violent lunatic was found close to the other beds, while the pauper nurse's pauper assistant is an idiot—was proved. Neither the master, nor the guardian who chanced to he visiting the house at the same time, had aught to offer in extenuation ; and there does not seem a doubt that the condition of the unhappy wretches immured in these sick wards is as hope lessly deplorable as anything dragged to light else where. It is useful to remember that one of the speakers who brought most ridicule upon the recent guardians' meeting at St. James's-hall was a representative from WhiteAlapel. This gentleman indignantly denounced the efforts to ameliorate the condition of the sick pauper as a scheme for bringing parish guardians into con tempt, and the charges brought agairst workhouse mismanagement as part of a cunningly devised plot against the liberties of the country. recelling this bombast, the state of the Whiteehapel sick wards, ar.d the fact of this board having played fast and loose in its treatment of casuals until the certifi cate of the Poor-law Board either was, or was threat ened to be, withdrawn, might be cited as excep tionally damaging now, were they any more than fair types of the system upon which metropolitan Parochial affairs are managed. It would be desir able to know whether the inadequacy of the wards visited on Friday has been known to the au thorities, and if any representations and recom mendatons concerning them have been made. It is the mere accident of circumstance which brings parochial neglect before the public. Its existence is the rule, and the Sick Poor Association, in the absence of regulations which can be enforced, has simply furnished a channel for bringing it to light. The public has now a right to demand some se curity that the amateur efforts of a private society shall be no longer necessary, and that an effectual instead of nominal control shall be promptly provided. The enemies of improvement are already congratulating themselves upon the advanced period of the session, and the possibility of the question being shelved another year. It is for the Holm,: of Commons and the country to say whether these congra tulations are premature or well founded, but it may be fairly hoped that such facts as are almost daily coming to light willj lead to something else besides fair promises and courteous words. Delays are especially dangerous, when they mean the conti nued practice of cruelties which lead to death, and none of the supposed difficulties attendiug a com prehensive reform ought to•be as for.uidal)le as the maintenance of things as they are. THE CATTLE PLAGUE—The weekly return of the reported cases of cattle plague in Great Britain, issued by authority of the Lords of the Privy Council, shows that 997 attacks were reported in Great Britain as occurring during the week ended June 9 ; viz., 933 in England, 35 in Wales, and 12 in Scotland. The number of attacks, viz., 957, shows an increase of 27 on the previous return. Correcting the total, by adding an average. of attacks com mencing during the week, but which may he subsequently reported, the number for the week will be 1,234. Twenty two counties remain free from the disease. viz., Westmor land, Monmouth, the six counties of South Wales, Mont gomery, Morioneth,Carnarvon, Anglesey, Wigtown, Bute, Argyll, Banff, Elgin. Nairn, Ross and Croruarty, Suther land, Caithness, and Orkney and Shetland . In fig counties no cases have been reported as occurring during the week. Thirteen counties, and "the Metropote," show an in crease of 26ki cases; and 15 counties acd two Ridings of Yorkshire show a decrease of 239 cases. The number of attacks re ported up to 9th June amounts to 5.031 per cent. of the estimated ordinary stock of cattle in Great Britain. In the present return a table is given altovring the distribution of live stock in proportion to acreage in each division and county. To every 108 acres in Great Britain there were, en sth March last, 8.4 cattle (viz., 3.3 cows and 5.1 other cattle), 38.7 sheep, and 4.3 pigs. In England, Leicestershire heads the list with 17.3 cattle to every 100 acres. Rutland shows tho highest proportion of sheep, 79.1 to each 100 acre. ; and Stiffo'.k possesses the greatest number of pigs, 14.1 to 100 acres. THE Itacaorimo COMMISSION.—In our last we expreased a hope that the statement made by some of our daily contemporaries to the effect that the recruiting commission was about to terminate its inquiry was incor rect. We are happy to say that it is incorrect, and we have good reason for believing that several weeks are likely to elapse before the evidence is concluded. We learn further with satisfaction that the commissioners are about to gather information not only from officers and administrators. but from the men themselves, as to the reasons which tend to deter soldiers from re engagement. With this view we learn that some of those who are now in civil life, hut who lately served in the ranks, will be asked to give evidence. Amon these men— railway employes, commissioners, and others—we can find experience quite recent enough for our purpose, and a free dom of speech respecting the causes of discontent which could scarcely be expected from those still remaining in the ranks. Meantime it is gratifying to be told officially that the army is still over its established strength.—Army and Nary Gazette. THE DUBLIN TRIALS.—DUBLIN, SATURDAY.- . _ The proceedings in the court-martial against Private James Xeilly, of the a3rd, have been proceeded with to-day. He is charged with having in January last, at Carrick-on-Suir, become acquainted with an intended mutiny, and with con cealing it from his commanding officer. The prisoner was advised by his counsel to object to the competency of the court, on the ground that the president must needs have formed an opinion on the testimony of Talbot, who was examined against M'Carthy •, an the same person's evidence was to be tendered against him. On this objection being disallowed, the lawyers employed for Kelly retired, and the court was adjourned until this morning, to allow him to consider whether he would seek other assistance. This morning he refused to plead, and the court ordered a plea of not guilty to be recorded. The trial was then proceeded with. Talbot repeated the evi dence given by him in Colour-Sergeant M'Carthy's case, and the prisoner declined to examine the witnesses. The court-martial sitting on fil'Carthy's case have found him guilty, and sentenced him to death. They have, however, recommended him to mercy. The alleged Fenian who was charged with having shot a soldier in a public-house was acquitted to-day. COLLISION IN THE CHAYNEL.—DorEE, Juteis 17. At two o'clock this morning the French lugger Eugene, coal laden, from Sunderland. came in collision off Dunge ness with the brig Ellen. The lugger sank immediately. The captain and crew were just able to scramble on board the brig, and! were landed at Dover utterly destitute. They were received at the Sailors' Home, where they are lodged, clothed, awl fed, and from whence they will be forwarded to Calais. THE SHIPPING TRADE.—The Liverpool shipping returns for the past official week show that there has b ee n an increase in the number of ships reported inwards of 49 and 28,985 tons, while in the number cleared outwards titre has been an increase of 21 ships and 13,844 tons. The total increase from January let to June 9th is, of ships re ported Inwards 556 and 477, 979 tons ; and outwards 416 and 311,703 tons. It is not prebable that this increase will be abated, as the disturbed state of affairs on the conti nent will naturally induce shippers to engage neutral bottoms, rather than risk the dangers, annoyances , and delays likely to ensue from the employment of Austrian, Prussian, or Italian ships, despite the notification that the belligerent governments will respect private end neu t ra l proper y. TENDRING HUNDRED HATLWAY. —This com pany's extension line to Walton-on-the-lase will shortly be opened to Kirby Crow, 2i miles from Walton. The pre liminiuy inspection by the Board of Trade will take place in about ten days. Au omnibus service is proposed to be established from Waite , ' to Kirby Cross ; and the Great Eastern, which works the traffic on the Tendring Hundred lines, will book passengers through to Walton. Plufsic. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Weber's Oberon was performed for the first time this season on Thursday last, and repeated on Saturday. It was splendidly put upon the stage, and admirably per formed. The character of the heroine was sustained, as formerly, by M.llle. Titiens ; Sir Exton, by Mongini ; Oberon, by Bettini ; Fatima, by Madame Trebelli ; and Sherasmin, by Bentley. All the smaller parts were in competent hands; the choral and orchestral por tions of the music were magnificently given ; and the beautiful and picturesque scenery did the greatest honour to the talents of the ingenious artists. CRYSTAL PALACE. The Crystal Palace concert on Saturday morning, though it presented no novel feature, attracted an immense concourse of visitors. It consisted chiefly of vocal pieces from the favourite operas of the season. Mille. lima de Murska sang the famous " GU angui d'inferno," the air of the Queen of Night in the Flout° Magic°, with incompa rable brilliancy. Signor Gardoni sang the fine air, " Sin dall eta," from Ifrjenia in Trturide ; and Signor Stagno the song in Don Giovanni," Dulla sua pace." There were other things of similar character ; and the performances were agreeably varied by 3loscheles's well-known fantasia, " Recollections of Ireland," magnificently played by Madame ArabeUa Goddard. The whole concert. with the accompaniments of fine weather and beautiful scenery, was a delightful entertainment, and enjoyed accordingly. Drama. SADLER'S WELLS._ On Thursday night Lord Lyttelton's bill to atop lessees of theatres from stealing the plots, dialogues, and characters of novelists, was thrown out in the House of Lords ; and on Saturday night an adaptation of Mr. Charles Dickens's latest novel, " Our Mutual Friend," was produced ►t Sadler's Wells, under the title of The Golden Dustman, without any sign in the playbills that the author had been consulted. The adaptation is in five acts, and the adapteris Mr. Farnie, a gentleman well known as a librettist. All the important characters and incidents of the novel have been retained, and the adapter, like many more similar workmen before him, has been tempted by the literary charm of the writing to drag in scenes which are amusing as a display of character, but a heavy clog upon the action of the dramatised story. Many of the incidents will scarcely bear the somewhat coarse realisation of the stage ; for example, the scene at " Boffin's Bower," where Mr. Boffin, after he is attacked by Mr. Wegg with one will concerning the great Harmon property, goes into the dustyard and finds another will, nearly becomes ridiculous. It is in the early part of this scene that Mr. Boffin, after having a book about misers read to him by Mr. Wegg, because of his acknowledged ignorance of print, suddenly shows a wonderful and unexplained capacity for reading the crabbed handwriting of an old will. The same cha. racter—the " golden dustman "—also exhibits other in cousistencies. As the genial Boffin be is heavy, and unac quainted with the meaning of many simple words, but when he resolves, for a purpose, to act the domestic tyrant, he is quick and intelligent, with a remarkable flow of fine language. In this, as in other dramatised versions of Mr. Dickens's novels, we have noticed a strong disposi tion on the part of actors and adapters, but especially in the former, to people the stage with a set of tottering or haggard Bedlamites. Our great humeurist, amongst hie many beautiful and infinitely varied characters, has cre ated many eccentric individualities, but he generally " draws the line" at lunacy and idiotcy. We have seen Caleb Plummer played in the Harwell harmless ward style, and we saw several characters so per formed at Sadler's Wells on Saturday night. The actors and ►ctresses who deserve honourable mention are Mr. Barrett, Mr. Belmore, Mrs. Poynter, and Miss Ads Dyas, who performed Mr. Boffin, Wegg, Mrs. Willer, and Lizzie Hexham. Mr. Belmore's Wegg displays all that remarkable but somewhat undisciplined force which dis tinguished his Softy in the Princess's version of Aurora kTopi, and is full of rough characteristic humour. The great fault of the piece is a want of pleasant interest, the disagreeable characters having it too much their own way. The house was well attended on Saturday, many literary men being present, but the noisy, brutal gallery occupants would have disgraced and been turned out of the lowest music-hall. THE FORTHCOMING VOLUNTEER REVIEW.- Saturday was the last day on which applications were received at the War-office from the commanding officers of volunteer corps desirous of taking part in the review in Hyde-park, next Saturday. The following are the names and strength of those who have signified their intention of being present :-Ist Middlesex Engineers, 402; 2nd Administrative Battalion (Middlesex), 466 ; let Middlesex, 203 ; 11th Middlesex, 432 ; 15th Middlesex, 401 ; 22nd Middlesex, 733 ; 2 4 th Middlesex, 600 ; 29th Middlesex, 380 ; 36th Middlesex, 193; 37th Middlesex, 220 ; 39th Mid dlesex, 280 ; 40th Middlesex, 308 ; 46th Middlesex, 249; 3rd Administrative Battalion (Essex), 637 ; 7th Surrey, 305 ; Ist Warwick, 801 ; Ist London Artillery, 227 ; let London Rifles, 609 ; 3rd London Rifles, 319 ; Ist Admi nistrative Battalion (Tower Hamlets), 503 ; 2nd and Bth Tower Hamlets, 382 ; 6th Tower Hamlets, 4M ; 19th Ser. rev, 310; 23rd Surrey, los ; 2nd Mid. Art., 2M ; 4th Mid dlesex, 359 ; 9th Middlesex, 237 ; 18th Middlesex, 120 ; 19th Middlesex, 368 ; 20th Middlesex, 28a ; 23rd Middlesex, 230 ; Ist Administrative Battalion (Warwick), 507 ; 2nd L0nd0n,225 ; 3rd Middlesex Artillery, 282 ; 2nd Middlesex, 400 ; 21st Middlesex, 450 ; 38th Middlesex, 116 ; the Hon. Artillery Company, not known ; Ist Administrative Batta lion (Berke), 5'2'2 ; 4th Tower Hamlets, 313; 2nd Adminis trative Battalion, 500 ; Ist Tower Hamlets Engineers, 131 ; let Administrative Battalion (Surrey), 107; lat London Engineers, 114 ; Ist Notts (Nottingham), 600. It will be seen from the above official return that 46 volunteer corps have sent in their names, and that the col lective strength, as far as can be ascertained, is about 15,000. It will be remembered that H.R.H. the Duke of Cambridge, when presiding at the annual meeting of the National Rifle Association, gave as his reason against hay ing a review in Hyde-park that there would probably be some 10,000 men present, and, therefore, that any move ments would be out of the question. As it now appears that there will be 15,000, it is, of course, impossible that there can be much else than a march past. The presence of their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales will, however, render the gathering a very interesting one, and the metropolitan force will have the opportunity of showing how far they have availed themselves of their ad vantage over most of the provincial corps for battalion drill.--Sweday Gazette. THE INCORPORATED LAW SOCIETT.-At the ex amination of candidates for admission on the roll of at torneys and solicitors of the superior courts, the examiners recommended the following gentlemen, under the ago of 213, as being entitled to honorary distinction :—John Richard Collins, who served his clerkship to Mr. Thomas William Gray, of Exeter, and Messrs. Coode, Kingdon, and Cotton, of London ; Frederick Nalder, who served his clerkship to Mr. Frank Isaac Naliter, of Shepton Mallet ; Francis Henry Phillips, who served hie clerkship to Mr. Jacob Phillips, of Chippenbam, Mr. William Simp son, of New Mahon, and Messrs. Williamson, Hill, and Co., of London ; Frederick Ring Frost, who served his clerkship to Mr. John Metcalfe Pollard, of Ipswich, and Messrs. Shirreff and Son, of London. The council of the Incorporated Law Society accordingly awarded them prizes of books. The examiners have also certified that the following candidates, under the age of 26, whose names are placed in alphabetical order, passed examinations which entitle them to commendation, and they were awarded certificatesof merit:—Edward Montague ' Browne, who served his clerkship to Ms. Newenham I Charles Wright, of London, and Mr. John Becks, of Northampton. ; Thomas Mountain. who served his clerk ship to Messrs. Grange and Wintriogham, of Great 1 Grimsby, and Messrs. Carritt and son of London ; Albert Edward Scott, who served his clerkship to Messrs. Scott land Co.. of Lincoln's-inn-fields, London ; Julius Henry 1 Smith, who served his clerkship to Mr. Francis Sanders, of Dudley. FATAL MINE ACCIDENT AT CAMRORNE.-A most melancholy accident occurred at Cendorrow Mine, Cam borne, on Thursday, by which one man was buried alive I and three others seriously injured. It appears that two brothers, named Treloar, were working in the back of the 230-fathom level, on a good course of tin, when several 1 tons of stuff fell away and knocked down the stage on which they were working, nearly filling the level, in which two other miners, naned John and William Roberts, brothers, were also working, burying the men in the debris. Three of the men, William Roberta and the two Treloars, were shortly after extricated, but they were found to be badly injured. The body of John Roberta is not yet found, and it is expected, from the great quantity of stuff fallen away, that it will take two or three days at least before the body can possibly be recovered. In connexion with this moat melancholy affair there was an extraordinary escape of another miner named Treloar, a son of one of the injured men. He was at work en the stage with the others, and in the first moment of danger, from sheer impulse, threw out his hands, which fortunately for him struck a piece of timber in the side of the leveL To this he held fast until relieved from his most perilous position, and thus saved his life. Captain John Moyle, who was underground at the time, also nar rowly escaped. Messrs. Vincent and Harris, surgeons, were promptly in attendance, but the injuries to the men are of a fatal character, and little hope is entertained of their recovery. They are all married men with families. — Waters Morning News. EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, JUNE *parting Entettigente. THE HAMPSHIRE WEE G K AND CURRENT MEWIN& TO THI IDITOR OF TEI warns. SlK,—Disappointment awaited all who braved the inconveniences that attend the assisting at a Stock bridge Meeting, with an idea of seeing a Student, Lord Lyon, or Rustic turn up for the Derby of 11467. The " first appearances" made were anything but startling, Cerf Volant, Undo, Distin, and Sir Oliver, one and all de clining to show for the rich stakes in which they were en. gaged, whilst Ailesbury and Julius only came out to suffer desent. Hence our old acquaintances Viridis, Hermit, and Marksman won every prize worth having, with the exception of the Mottisfont, which a French fill by Fitz-Gladiator—Comtesae, called Nemea, for Count Lagrange. She was the only youngster that was successful at the meeting. and the performance was not a grand one, seeing what Viritlis afterwards did with Prodigal when meeting him on 241 b worse terms than Nemda did. The improvement displayed by Viridis was one of the sensations of the week, her form being very dif ferent to that in the Fernhill at Ascot, when she was beaten so far from Hippie and Friponnier ; but she has all the appearance of doing even greater things yet, and can well take her plebe alongside Achie v e ment and Hippie now, Hermit having met her under great advantages on Wednesday. Marksman for the first time ran up to the great trial he won at home before he figured at Northamp ton, the seven furlongs cup, wherein he carried • 12115 penalty, being a very easy task for him, despite of the spin he had only two hours previously with Seville, on whom all Danebury was so sweet. Whether he is equal to The Palmer or Hermit (the best Derby form out as yeti is an open question still, Mr. Merry having declined to pit him against the latter for the Troy, wherein The Pal mer also staying at home, there was only the fresh comers for the Biennial winner to beat. The champions of this body were Ailesbury and Julius, both too backward to com pete with the great guns yet, though when the last-named is thoroughly fit to run he may even turn the tables on Hermit, who beat him far easier than he did Vauban, another of the " improvers " she meeting brought to light, and one the Danebury people will find very useful where with to measure Uncas and others by. Apart from the 2-yr-old racing, the doings at Stockbridge were particu larly slow, plate after plate being served up until people were heartily sickened with the whole business, and. there were at least half a dozen too many races on Thursday and Friday. What made matters worse was the way in which the last day's card was " worked," as if expressly to keep people in the neighbouring towns all night, and those cockneys who waited for the Hurstbourne Cup did not reach London until one o'clock on Saturday morning, the 70 mile journey per rail having occupied about fivehours. Naturally, there was not a little grumbling after this at the arrange ments of the railway company as well as the racing autho- rities, and backers had such a frightful dressing over their week's speculations altogether, that many vowed never more to go through the horrors of " The Hampshire week." The Northumberland Plate and betting on the Goodwood Stakes will have to keep the talent employed till the New market July week, both events exciting more attention than they did last year. The public have already "ssif fered" materially over the Newcastle race, nearly all the early favourites turning out but "money horses," and the shifty l'rimate and steady Honesty being about the best •` goods" to deal in now. A wretched lot is left in the Goodwood Stakes, which s third-rate three-year-old capable of galloping two miles and a half can win, and if the partisans of Othello and the brother to Guerilla, both bred to stay, only fancy them on the day, there will be nothing better worth standing, un less Woodyeates can back the colt by Peppermint out of Celebrity, that won his race at Stockbridge so easily. The once famous Liverpool Cup has quite gone out of fashion, for though it is set for Wednesday next, the second day of the Liverpool Summer Meeting, the subj e ct is almost a stranger in betting circles. And yet there is a better clams of horses engaged than in the Northumberland Plate, Terror appearing of fair quality after what Lucifer— whom he ran so close at Chester—did at Ascot, whilst there are many that are thought good enough to give him considerable weight. If, however, his heart is only in the right place, he will prove a Terror to all his opponents, as Vespasian must be a better horse than Mr. Pitt to ooneede him the 16lb required, and I know of nothing else likely to thwart him, unless the ground should be soft enough for Pintail who is much improved since she beat Hollyfox at Ascot Spring. On the first day we have two " sprint" handicaps, one of them, the Molyneux Cup, being almost at the mercy of Windham, who is quite as much at home over six furlongs as two miles, and only in his absence can Mr. Johnstone hope to win with one of his trio, the best of which must 'ware Sundeelah. The Flying Handicap, half a mile, should fall to the share of Flying Jib again, or Venturesome ; and the three-year old Selim might beat both Cathedral and Moulsey for the Queen's Plate. Good entries were obtained for both the two-yr-old races ; but I can only fancy Clarice for the Great Lancashire Produce Stakes, and Arundel for the Craven Biennial (with a run), and if Mr. Mackenzie should send the Dean for the Bod minion (second day), it will not be worth while for any thing moderate to oppose him. The only other item in a condition to receive attention is the Liverpool St. Larger, which, like the Cup, ham lost all its attractions, and has nothing better than the colt by King Tom—Darling's dam engaged in it. Chelmsford and Ipswich are only holiday meetings, and the programmes contain so few completed events, that very few words will suffice for them. The Chelmsford Handi cap the Celerity colt could win, Mr. Ten Broeck being the most likely to do the trick in his absence with The Star, or Forester, only one of which may accept, and Sweet Home looks almost as good a thing for the Great Beddow and Nursery Stakes as Chignon does for the Rendlesham Stakes at Ipswich, whereto Peeress should travel for the Great Suffolk Handicap.—l am, Sic., METEOR.

Several special jurymen were fined 10/. each for non attendance. The Lord Chief Justice said he would take that oppor tunity of stating that a practice was daily growing up of special jurymen sending him private letters with certifi cates. He wished it to he generally understood that he could accept no excuse for non-attendance except it was made in open court. He must impose the fines notwith standing he had received such letters. PERIONOWEIEI V. FREEMAN AND ANOTHER. This was a very extraordinary and peculiar action against the defendants assurgeons, for negligently per forming an operation, by which the plaintiff was injured. The defendants pleaded first, not guilty, and secondly, that they were not retained or employed by the plaintiff. Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., and Mr. Prentice were counsel for the plainti ff ; Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., and Sir G. Hony man were counsel for the defendants. The plaintiff is a Pole, earning his living as a journey man tailor, and residing in Wardour-street, Soho. The defendant, Mr. Freeman, is the house surgeon at St. George's Hospital, and Mr. Holmes, the other defendant, is a surgeon in Queen-street, May-fair, and one of the surgeons of the hospital, and was at the time acting as surgeon at the same hospital for Dr. Taylor, who was absent from illness. The plaintiff had been suffering from a painful disorder, and had been an inmate of the Dutch hospital. After that his wife, who is an Englishwoman, obtained an admission for him into St. George's Hermits' on the 3rd of May, 1865. It was found necessary to per form an operation on the plaintiff on the Bth, and accord ingly a hot or steam bath was prepared for him previous to the operation. He went into the room, where he found two kettles of boiliug water on the fire. The water was poured into a stool or chair, and he was re quested to sit on it; but he refused, on ac count of the beat. It, however, was insisted on, and the two female nurses (plaintiff bein g a ali g ht man) caught him by the arms and legs and sat him down, and forcibly kept him there for a quarter of an hour. His sufferings were the most excruciating, and the flesh and skin came off. The two defendants were in the room at the time, and also in an adjoining room, and in consequence of his screams and howls Dr. Holmes or dered the door to be locked and the windows closed. The plaintiff also coin plained that he was left in that state from 2 o'clock until half-past nine without any doctor or nurse visiting him, and that he was not properly attended to afterwards, being left to do the best he could, with the assistance of a fellow patient. There were two nurses and eight patients in the room at the time. His hand was also scalded. Plaintiffs wife afterwards called at the hospital, and in the coure of the conversation she had with Dr. Freeman he said it was by the will of God that her husband was burnt. She described the wounds as • quarter of a yard long. Evi dence was also given to show that the injuries complained of interfered with the plaintiff's getting his living as a tailor, and that the doctors had nothing to do with giving a patient a bath, but the nurses. Plaintiff was unable to speak English, and but imperfectly knew what was said to him in English. At the conclusion of the plaintiff's case, Mr. Coleridge submitted there was no case. The defendants not having acted for hire or reward were not liable, and, further, the defendants could not be jointly proceeded against. The learned judge said he would not stop the case, but reserve both points. Mr. Coleridge, in addressing the jury for the defendants, sail he was not there to deny that the plaintiff had been scalded ; but the question was whether they were liable for the negligence of the nurses (one of whom had been discharged) employed by the hospital and not by the sur geons. Where, therefore, unpaid surgeons of an hospital liable for the conduct of others? Ho did not deny that the plaintiff bed been injured, but his remedy was not against the defendants, but those who employed the nurses. The defendants' case was that they, as unpaid surgeons, had given the necessary directions for this man to have a bath by the time they returned to enable them to operate, but they had nothing to do with carrying it out. It was not because the nurses acted contrary to their directions, or in an improper manner, that the surgeons wore to be answerable. He should show that the plaintiff had exaggerated his injuries, and that the defendants were not in the room when the injuries were inflicted. The man had been treated with every kindness by the defendants. The learned counsel said the hospital ought to be ashamed of them selves for not making compensation to this man, instead of allowing the defendants to be proceeded against. Evidence was then given which completely negatived the plaintiff's case with reference to the defendants' con duct. All that was required was that the patient should sit over and not in hot water. Mr. Holmes deposed that after the plaintiff came off the bath he found him lying on his bed on his side, but he made no complaint, and he was not aware then that the plaintiff had been stalled; nor was there any trace of it when he examined him. He never saw the plaintiff again as • patient, because Mr. Tatham resumed his duties the following day. He was not aware of his own knowledge that the plaintiff was scalded. He did Dot hear screams from the plaintiff. He gave no orders for the door to be locked and the windows to be closed on account of the screams. It must have been excessive heat to produce the injury complained of ; the skin was not off. He must have heard it if the man had screamed. Mr. Freeman, the other defendant, gave corroborative evidence, and denied the expression attributed to him by the plaintiff's wife. He told the wife it was his wish that the matter should be inquired into, and that she had better write to, or come and see the board of governors; he and Mr. Holmes did not see the plaintiff put upon the water or whilst he was on it. The plaintiff could not have touched the water ; he was injured by the steam. Other evidence of a similar character was given to show that no groans were heard, or that the defendants were present at the time the man was put over the water. Mr. Pagett, of St. Bartholomew's, said it was the uni versal practice in hospitals for the nurses to prepare these baths and place the patients on them ; the skin from such a bath of bath, if scalded by steam, would not come off for some days ; redness and blister would come first ; there could be no doubt the man had been considerably burned on one side ; the pain must have been great ; from the line of scars the plaintiff was actually burnt by the earthen vessel which contained the boiling water, and not by the steam or water. Mr. Curling, of the London Hospital, said this was the usual course of practice ; it was very unusual for such an accident to occur. The Lord Chief Justice said if the jury believed the de fendants did no more than follow the usual practice, they were not liable. Mr. Huddleston said if the injury happened from the negligence of the nurses in the defendants' presence, and they did not interfere to prevent it, the defendant' would be liable. The ease then went to the jury on that point, the defendants contending that plaintiff had exaggerated his case. The jury ultimately returned a verdict for the defend ants, but expressed an opinion that the plaintiff had been 0 7 badly used. .ere CRICKET. SORBET T.

Did the British government surrender Captain Semmes and the other rebels picked up by the Deer hound ?—No incendiaries with black valises have organised here and started for Canada to fire Montreal, Toronto, and other cities.

The over-the-mountain temporary line had already been some time open to the contractors' engines, and the permanent way and bridges in the plain beyond have consequently bean pushed on within recent weeks with an energy which has left nothing to desire. The great thing, however, was to get both the tunnel. open, and, this being now done, what remains to complete the line may be regarded as engineering child's-work, which another month or five weeks will easily and certainly bring to a conclusion. It is now certain that the formal opening of the line to Aidin will take place in the first or second week of next month, nearly the whole of the per manent way being laid down and ballasted, and the only remaining piece of work of any importance—the wooden viaduct over the Ekindert—being also rapidly pushed on to completion."

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Jura 16. Sittings at Nisi Prius in Middlesex.—(Before Lord Chief Justice Erle and a Special Jury.) LAWRLNCII V. TBR NORTH LONDON RAILWAY COMPANY. The plaintiff in this case was a corn dealer in business at 228, High-street, Shoreditch, and at the back of his premises, in Bold-court, Plough-yard, he had stables. The North London Extension Railway was carried through Bold-court, but the plaintiff's property was not touched. Having built the railway arches the company put up a fence to enclose the land they had purchased. This fence left only a space of 8 feet wide, and the consequence was that there was not room enough for the plaintiff to get his waggons out. Upon this ground he claimed compensation from the company, and a The having been empannelled they awarded him 4001. The company, however, declined to pay this sum, and the present action was to recover it. Mr. Mellish, Q.C.. and Mr. Horace Lloyd appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. J. Browne, QC., and Mr. M. White for the defendants. . . . . The question to-day was whether the plaintiff had any I right at all in the pieoe of land which bad been fenced in. The plaintiff's ease war. that he and his predecessors had for at least sixty years used the land foe the purpose of getting waggons to and from his stables, and that this long user implied a right to do so. The defence was that the railway company had pur• chased the land without any notion that anybody claimed an easement over it, and the present claim was not made until after the company had paid for the land. There was no mention of the easement in the plaintiff's lease, or any other deed ; and it was contended that the plaintiff had no legal right of the kind at all, and that he had only used the land by sufferance. The jur7 found a verdict for the plaintiff for the sum awarded, interest, and costs, in all 58W.

THE IVRTS. CLERKENWELL. A gentleman attended before the sitting magistrate to complain on behalf of the inhabitente of St. Pancras-road and the surrounding houses of a stench maiming from the ex cavation going on at the St. Giles's Cemetery, St. Paperer road, for the formation of the London Extension oft holes'. land Railway. It that within thellpeat few days excavations have been going on at the east corner of the St. Gilee's Cemetery, which, it is stated, is the pauper portion of the burial-ground, for the formation of the Midland Railway, and that several 00SOI and • large quantity of bones have been exposed to public view. In some cases the coffins were perfectlysound, and on one of them being taken out it was broken,and it was stated that the body of a female was almost ea perfect and sound as when it waa first buried. In many cases decayed bones and skulls have been thrown up and about the ground, and In other instances they have been p laced in a large box, but not buried. As there was no doubt that this was a desecration of the dead, and such an act ought not to be tolerated, it was considered by the inhabitants of the district that the matter should be made public. The stench was such that it was likely to be injurious to health. The applicant was referred to the sanitary department of St. Pancras. MARYLEBONE. Harriet dans, aged 33, of 20, Cumberland-street, Pimlico, milliner, was charged on remand with committing wilful perjury in this court on the 30th of May last. Mr. George Lewis, jwi. appeared for the prosecution; and Mr. Wilding defended the prisoner. It will be remembered that the prisoner gave a gentle man named Moseley into custody for indecently assault ing her in a carriage on the North Western Railway. The charge was dismissed, and the present charge of perjury was thenyreferred by Mr. Moseley. The evidence went to show that the prisoner had lived I at various places and under different names, but she was generally known as Mrs. Villiers. She had cohabited off and on for two years with a person named Dyer, who stated he had run through his property, and now lived on the profits he made at races. During the time she had known him she had brought from 20 to 30 charges against him at the different police offices, which had invariably been dismissed. She was always following him about and bringing these charges, chiefly because he would not con tinue to live with her. At the time she made the charge against Mr. Moseley she had a bouquet of flowers in her hand, and several persons who saw her at the time deposed that the flowers were not in the least rumpled, nor was her dress disarranged. She made no complaint to the check taker at the Camden station, nor to the guard at any of the stations where the train stopped. Mr. Moseley, when accused, seemed to be (greatly astonished and indignant at the charge made against him, and was in an excited state. Further evidence proved that the prisoner was well known to the police as a companion of prostitutes, and was in the habit of frequenting the Victoria Railway sta tion for the Rurpose of talking to gentlemen, and she had been seen going away with different men from the station. The prisoner, who reserved her defence, was committed ter trial, and bail was refused. Oat 4 :oaf ilitiftarp. ADMIRALTY, JITNZ 16.—APPoncrmticre„—Lieute nant Francis W.

Notwithstanding the success of Mr. Gale's inven tion to render gunpowder non-explosive by the mixture of ground glass in certain proportions, it has been disputed whether the plan would be equally efficacious if tried on a large scale. To settle this point the War Department has placed at the disposal of the Ordnance select committee one of the old Martello forts on the coast, between Rye and Hastings, where the invention will be practically tested in a few days. Several wgrkmen from the Royal Arsenal have been employed at the Tort for this last fortnight, and there is now stored 25 tons of Gale's oomposition, being 5 tons of gunpowder and 20 tons of ground glass, which have been carefully incorporated in such a degree that any 5 lbs. of the whole will, when sifted for a few seconds, yield just 1 lb. of powder of its original strength and quality. The experiments are looked forward to with much interest. MARKETa HARDWARE.-1 astinciime. Juit 16.—The trade of this town is gradually getting quieter ; this week com paratively few orders have come in, and in some branches the manufacturers have barely sufficient on their books to keep them going. The home trade is almost invariably inactive at this season : this year the effect of that is more felt, consequent on the total want of animation which per vades the export trade, and by the almost complete stop page of it in some important departments—that throughout all the territories involved in the impending war. Shipments intended for Italy have been counter manded during the week, and remittances from that quarter and from Germany have all but ceased. This as regards the general trade : but a large order for anchors, chains, and other naval stores for the principal Italian arsenals in the Mediterranean and Adriatic has been re ceived and given out by a firm in this town connected with the Italian government. In other respects the continental trade is quiet ; on account of France the orders have been small for some time past ; as to Australia and South Africa, there is a fair supply in hand. The accounts from the adjoining district of South Stafford shire and East Worcestershire are to the effect that trade has fallen cif in that quarter j in the way of castings and forge-work there is less activity ; and as to many of the numerous branches of minor importance there is consider able diminution of orders ; for railway fittings and other articles of that clam there is a good supply ; and at all the works engaged in that branch they are at work full time.

The tenor of commercial and political news alike has been exceedinalT discouraging. As regards India, in addition to bank failures some large merchants are understood to be in difficulties, and shippers who had bought exten sively of clothe for that part of the world have thought it prudent to withhold them, and place them forkeside on our own market. There are monetary difficulties in the way of trade generally, and especially of some portion of the Mediterranean and Levant trade. On the whole, therefore, the elements of discouragement are rather strong. There is nothing particular in the way of the home trade. The cotton lacuna and high prices have left the country house. exceedingly bare of stock and these as well perhaps as the retail dealers or drapers have never held • smaller aggre gate stock of caliooes within memory. There is room for an immense demand here so soon as prices ars low enough to give confidence for investments in this direction. Both in yarn and sloth the business done this week has been small, and prices are weaker. India mule twist is about id. per lb. lower than last week. Printing cloths are rather more in request. India shirting. are generally held rather steadily, but the resale lots stand in the way of business, and some kinds are easier to buy.
