Isla fidelity:to. BAIL COURT.—Fan. 5. After Term Nisi Pries Sittings at Weetminebse.--(Befon Mr. Justice Shee and a Common Jury.) ailmexr V. WEBSTER. This was en action by Mr. Dominick Murray, the well known comedian, against Mr. Benjamin Webster, for an alleged breach of agreement relative to his taking • half benefit at the Olympic Theatre. Mr. Hoddleston, Q.C., and Mr. F. H. Lewis were coca- Del for the plaintiff. Mr. Serjeent Ballantine and lie. Wood appeared for the defendant. The action was brought by the plaintiff against the defendant upon • contract which was entered into between them, and it appeared that in 1866 the plaintiff was engaged at the Olympic Theatre, then under the management of Mr. Horace Wigan, to play first low comedian and Irish parts, at • salary of 8/. Per week and a clear half benefit. In December, 1866, the defendant became the lessee of the Olympic, when the plaintiff metered into a similar eagegement with him, with the exception that the salary was reduced to 71. ,r M week. The engagement was for the sawn, •1e which depended upon the manager sad the snows of a piece ; and it was generally terminated by • notice being put up by the manager in the green-room. Matters went on very well until the end of June or the beginning of July, when the plaintiff spoke to Mr. Sin lock, the treasurer and acting manager, and asked hilt when he wan to take his benefit, and that be should like to play an Irish character in • drama that he had per formed in before, and which had been very neonatal. Mr. Kinlock sugg ested his applying to the defendant, and be accordingly wrote to the defendant to fix his benefit, for permission to play the piece, and to know if his ser vices would be required the ensuing season. That letter was accordingly sent to the defendant, and received by him, but overlooked or forgotten. No answer was sent to it ; but afterwards the defendant admitted that he had received the letter, and it had escaped his memory. The plaintiff receiving no answer made an engagement for the ensuing season to perform at the New Queen's Theatre, and it was insinuated on behalf of the plaintiff that this annoyed the defendant, and had caused him to act in the manner complained of towards the plaintiff. On the 3rd of August there was posted up in the green-room • notice to the following effect:—" Those ladies and gentlemen who aredesirous of renewing their engagements for the ensuing season are requested to make their application in writing to Mr. Kinlock on or before Saturday, the 10th instant"—an intimation that the season was drawing to a close, and as, by the rules of the theatre, three weeks' notice was required to be given to the manager before • benefit could come off, the plaintiff considered be was entitled to • similar notice, and that he should not be allowed sufficient time in which to make his arrangements, and he accordingly spoke again to Mr. Hi lack and Mr. H. Wigan, and again pressed them to tjx the time for his benefit. He afterwards saw the defen dant, and spoke to him about it. Defendant replied that he Wes not aware that the plaintiff was entitled to • half clear benefit, upon which plaintiff referred him to the terms of the agreement. Defendant then complained that be thought the plaintiff had not acted fairly or courteously towards him, in not giving him the refusal of his services when the mistake with reference to the letter was ex 'Mined. On the following day he asked the defendant if be was to take the green-room notice as a notice of the clove of the season, to which defendant replied that it would depend upon the success of the piece ( The Grass hoper ) that was to be produced that evening. Plaintiff asked defendant if he had any objection to the drama he bait forwarded to him being performed, and be replied that plaintiff must arrange with the manager. He pressed the manager to fix a time, but he said he could not without Webster's consent. No benefit was offered, and no day Axel. The Tres Paddifoota was cast, and the character of Beale was cast to him ; but he refused, on the ground that it was not first comedy. Mr. Wigan said he was much annoyed with plaintiff for so doing, and in reference to the benefit, all Mr. Wigan said was, "As you will not play Bottles, I shall fine you a week's salary, and not allow nu to make any change in the prograunne." Five bene fi ts bad taken place prior to this date, anal the actors and actresses bad the inearinhle privilege cf changing the pro gramme, end ',electing their pieces, subject to the approval of the manager. Plaintiff estimated a clear half benefit to be worth between 60/. and NC at the Olympic. The I'm, Peddifie't was reed at the theatre on the l'ith of August. The part of Duffles wax not a first comedy part, but decidedly a farce old man. He considered the part of Puddifoot, jun., the first low comedy part. That character we.. eaeigned to Mr. Horace Wigan. The faros lied bees cast three times at the Adeiphi, and Ruffles had been cast for Mr. Stephenson. Mr. John Clarke read the farce, and considered Pullalifoot, jun., was his part. After reading the part plaintiff retired from the green-room, nun left the theatre. He made no complaint, because he Iced ;in idea that the piece, although cast, would not be played. The learned judge deferred his summing up until to-day (Thursday). _ COURT OF DIVORCE.—FEa. 5. (Before Sir J. P. Wilde.) NEI THORPY. r. Nrt.THORM.

THE POLICE COURT& MANSION-HOUSE. JoAn Hoeg Aton, 19, mad William Ceans,22, ware brought before the Lonl Mayor en a charge ef highway :clammy. Mr. Beard, solicitor, defended Cann. On Saturday night, at twenty minute' to twelve, Alfred Cotton, a pawnbroker's a:latent, was paining through the Minorite when he was pounced upon by three men who MOM out of a court. One of them snatched away part of his watch chain, and Houghton held him by the col ax , an d prevented his Meeting in pursuit. The prosecutor shortly afterwards gave Houghton into custody on the aerie of being concerned in the robbery, and Cann was apprehended outside of Biehopsgate station, and identified by a witness named Green as the person who committed the theft. Mr. Beard, however, produced evidenes to show that, so tar as regarded his 'Bent, It was a mss of mistaken identity ; and the prosecutor himself stated that he did not believe him to be the man. Under these circumstances Cann was discharged. A second charge was then preferred against Houghton by a gentleman named Alfred George Level, who stated that while walking along Eldon-street, Minorite, on his way to Finsbury-square, at a quarter to eight on the even ing of Wednesday, the 29th ult., four men came from under an archway, and two of them held his arms whilst the others relieves' him of his watch and chain. They then ran off, and prosecutor followed two of them down • paw sage, but was unable to overtake them. On returning to Eldon-street his watch was handed to him by a gentleman who picked it up on the spot where the robbery had taken place. Ho ton he distinctly recognised as aloof the men who stood in front of him and took his watch chain. The Lord Mayor inquired of the witness whether he did not make fight . Mr. Lovel said the thing was done too instantaneously. They were under a lamp, and he did not know what they meant. There were people not five yards o ff either way, who thought they were "larking." George Agar, the chief warder in Holloway prison, proved a number of convictions against the prisoner, the last one being at the Central Criminal Court in July, 1866, when he was sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment, which expired on the Rth January last. The Lora Mayor committed him for trial on both charges. GUILDHALL Men Price, the woman who was charged at this court on Saturday with stealing the clothes of William Norman, an acrobat, while he was performing at the Cogers%hall, in Bride-lane, was again placed at the bar before Alderman Canton for further examination. Mr. Martin, the chief clerk, said this was a very bard use for Norman. He had been robbed of all his clothes, and in the pocket of his trousers was the duplicate of another pair of trousers which had been pledged at Mr. Cartland s, In Shoe-lane, and he at one went to the pawnbroker, gave him notice of the robbery, and eked him not to art with them, and the pawnbroker did part with them in spite of the notice. William Norman, in answer to the magistrate, said he gave notice at 20 minutes past 9 o'clock on Saturday morn ing that he had been robbed, and requested them not to part with the tronaers, but the assistant, to whom he spoke, said that if anybody presented the ticket he would let him have the trousers. He did give them to somebody on Saturday night. Alderman Cauaton mid that it was his opinion that if the man who presented the ticket had been stopped, they might have .aught the thief. Mr. Cartland mid he heard nothing about it until Mon day morning. His assistant said that Norman did not give a proper description of the trousers, and would not wait for them to be brought down. Norman on the other hand, said he did, and he (Mr. CartlAnd) aid not know which to believe of the two. Alderman Causton said it was very hard for the prose cutor to be robbed as he had been. Mr. Cartland said it wee, and he would have much plea sure in giving him a new pair of trousers for the pair his 'resistant had allowed to be taken away. Alderman Canton said be was glad indeed to hear him soy so. The worthy alderman then ordered Norman to receive 1G s. from the poor box as some compensation for his loss. Nothing further was discovered regarding the prisoner, and after being cautioned she was discharged. METROPOLITAN RAIL* AY. After our report left yesterday, In reply to a question, the CHAIRMAN said it was not in. tended to go on with the Snow-bill Junction unless satis factory arrangements were made with the corporation of London and the Chatham and Dover Company. The share of coat falling upon the Metropolitan was 15,0001. An arrangement had been made with the Midland for a tunnel for a double line under their proposed hotel, for which the Metropolitan was to pay 6 per cent. on the cost when brought into use. A iiiiaarnui.imit, in confirmation of the chairman's statement, said be bad been employed to offer for premises belonging to the company, now producing 80/. a year, 220(., and to lay out 1,600/. upon them. lie believed that the surplus property of the company would produoe at least three times what it was put down at. A SHARRHOLDER suggested that, in order to show their confidence in the board, they should pass a vote of censure on Mr. Bloxam. (Hear.) Another SHAREHOLDER urge d that before that WM done they should wait to see if the Vice-Chancellor, who had endorsed Mr. Blexam's view, wee right or wrong. He con sidered the board wrong in charging the interest on the extension debentures and half the directors' fees to capital, which was practically creating a debt they would hereafter have to meet. He asked whether the Tower-hill Extension was really to be carried out, and if so whether they had the funds in Una for the purpose. Mr. Bogs gave credit to the board for having employed the capital in that way which was most beneficial to the company. He endorsed the chairman's view as to the probable increase of traffic, and added that they might expect a considerable receipt from coal traffic which had not been taken into account. He hadunbounded confidence in the board and in the future of the railway, and he denounced Mr. Inoxam's attempts to injure it, expressing surprise that he should have ventured to attend the meet ing. (Cries of " Point him out," " Show him up," and " Shame.") . . The CHAISM IN recommended them to leave Mr. loxam, who, he had no doubt, was well paid for what he bad done, but could do them no more harm, alone. ((bean.) Mr. NASH recommended the shareholders to hold their shares, and leave Mr. Bioxere to himself. Mr. Serjeant T. ATKINSON believed the bear operation of the Stock Exchange would fall back upon the Stock Ex change itself, and the old maxim of dog feeding upon dog would be carried out. A Stiatten,,Ltiza expressed a fear that Mr. Blesses proceedings would occasion great expense to the company. Another SHARZHOLDES wanted to know whether this omnibuses between Portland•road station and Regent circus, which could not pay, we)e to be continued. After remarks from Mr. RETN.)LDB, Mr. PAKILLS—the latter in support of the course proposed by the directors in paying an ad interim dividend of 54 per cent until the question of the apportionment of charges to capital and revenue respectively was finally settled—and other share- holders, The CHAIRMAN replied generally that be could not soy when the capital account was closed until be knew whether the Tower-hill extension was to be proceeded with, and it would not be proceeded with without the full consent and concurrence of the shareholders. He bad no doubt that the charges in question were not properly chargeable upon the undertaking now in work. The St. Joha's-wood sub scription stood thus :—He told them in August it would nut be necessary to treat the 600.000/. capital for that line as other than a loan, as the stock they held in it would be sold ; but he had since found that Lord Redesdale bad struck out the clause euipowcring thelll to do eo l bat they would blow Mtn:. Omar ktutrahteed for that capital when !hied. The omnibuses were profitable. The resolution was carried unanimously. A resolution was adopted, authorising an appeal against the order of the Vice-Chancellor in the case of Hism r. the Company, and adjourning the meeting till the 11th of March to receive a report of the result. The ad interim dividend recommended by the board was resolved upon, and authorial was given to raise 200,000/. by debentures, and the retiring directors and auditors having been re elected, the proceedings of the day terminated in the usual manner. FENIANIBM IN THE ROYAL MARINE ARTILLERY. —Yesterday morning a general court-martial, presided over by Colonel C. L. Barnard, Royal Marine Artillery, amembled at the Royal Marine Barracks, by order of the Lords of the Admiralty, for the trial of Corporal Thomas Buick, 11th company, Royal Marine Artillery, for having attempted to administer a Fenian oath, and making use of language of a seditious character.

After further considers tion of the opposed adjourned petition of the Isle of Wight (Newport Junction) Railway the examiner declared that the standing orders had not been complied with. THE IRISH CATTLE Titans. —Much misconcep tion has arisen relative to the recent Council order which prohibits the movement or the exportation from Ireland of any cattle or sheep affected with foot and mouth dim ders, or sheep affected with scab or foot rot ; also the ex posure in fairs or markets of cattle affected with lung du ease. A oonteinporary suggests that government should be urged to revoke those restrictions, and represents thou as likely to injure the cattle trade. Without doubt, the export branch is the principal resource of this country. The number of cattle exported to Great Britain last year amounted to 541,413, all of which were accompanied with certificates of their being perfectly free from disease, no matter of what nature. The English authorities declieed to allow the landing of Irish cattle unless anima ponied with • clean bill of health. They, there fore, got a Council order to that effect passed by the Privy Council in London, in the coo, meneem ent of October Ishii,. Finding portal etami nations of exported cattle not only caused delay, but a 1.., pressed heavily on funds which were collected solely from the Irish poor-law unions, the Irish executive propo.ol the abolition of portal cattle inspection, to which the go vernment authorities in London would not consent, unless there were, coeval with doing away with portal inspection in Ireland, some other regulations mule that would ensure infectionsly-diseased cattle from being exported from Ire land to Great Britain, u was the care before the issuing oi the English Council order. Accordingly, the Irish Friry Council was coinpellcd, in behalf of the intermits of the Irish cattle traders, to issue the order which now forms 1 subject of complaint. Its revocation would but induce the reimposition of much more embarrassing restrictions by the authorities in England. It, however, we think, would be desirable to modify it in such • way as to prevent its in teefering with the movement of cattle or sheep that b<- came diseased in transit, or while in a market or fair, sr resting 'dam—Dab/ix Everting Mail.

Dramas.' was received as a prisoner on the 2_11.1 Id April, 1866, under sentence of two years' imprisonment and hard labour for uttering bass coin. She complained of illness, and admitted that she had been in the habit of swallowing base coin to avoid detection. The medical officer had no doubt that the corrosive quality of the coin had produced epileptic fits, which terminated in her death, after nearly two years' illness.
