The British Institution gallery has just been susasd for a tingle day with what threatens to be its very hid exhibition ; and this, we are sorry to eay, only tee Bench in accordance with the melancholy occasion in the display of a number of very poor copies or studies from the various pictures by the old masters and those of the Amami British artists, which, according to the plan of tie institution, are pieced each year, for the benefit of the slawients, after the exhibition of the old meters has eked at the end of the season. The institution may have been allowed to sink of late years from the want et spirit and fresh energy in its managers ; its ex hibition of modern pictures has no doubt declined for some reason till the place has become a byword amonget artists ; aaverthelese it has a raison deem and undoubtedly eupplies a want in the collection of the old master, that will be di covered at once when the time comes round for those weleotne lessons, in sober truth and just harmony, which the old masters never fail to read us at the moment when we are in danger of being overawed by the vainglorious displays of modern skill in art. It is to be hoped that by the time of Lady-day next, when the freehold is to be mid, some steps will be taken for the maintenance of an institution capable of rendering very important services to the cause of art. RE-ELECTION OP THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL. The election for the western division of Glouces tershire, rendered necessary by the appointment of Sir J. Bolt to the Attorney-Generalship, came off at Dursley, yesterday. The High-Sheriff of Gloucestershire, Sir Maxwell Steele- Graves, having gone through the usual formal proeeedinpi Sir GLORGI Jarmicsolf, the unsuooessful candidate for North Witte at the last general election, nominated Sir John Bolt, her Majesty's Attorney-General, as a fit and proper person to be re-elected WICIDLLII seconded the nomination. No other candidate being proposed, the High Sheriff declared Sir J. Bolt, duly elected. (Cheers.) The ArroaNzr-Ostrzw., on ooming, forward was reoeived with renewed cheers, and some hires. He commenced by acknowledging the renewal of confidence in him—(no no) —sin the part of the electors of West Gloucestershir e by electing him for the fourth time without opposition as their member. First he thanked his political friends for placing him in the proud poidtion,which he held. (A Voice: " For the last time.") He had heard that cry before, " For the last time," but they would see about that. But while thanking his political friends he should not be doing his whole duty if he did not express his appreciation of the kindness and courtesy of his opponents on this occasion. (Hear, hear.) He believed that if they had opposed his re-election they would not have succeeded in their opposi tion, but he could not the less thank them for the kind manner in which they had refrained from attempting it. If they would allow him he would tell them what was the ground upon which he thought they were justified in re-electing hint that day. (A Voice : " Let us have the franchise.") The only circumstantial difference in the position of affairs now and the position of affairs when they elected him in July, 1863, was that he had accepted an office under the crown with her Majesty's present government, and he would endeavour to satisfy them that this afforded no reason for any change of their opinion. After referring to the circumstances attending the reform di.cussion during the last session he asked, looking to the circumstances under which the present government took office, were they not entitled to a fair and candid oonsi deration. Were not their measures entitled to receive a dispassionate consideration at the hands of the House of Commone k ? (Cheers.) Let them look at the character and composition of that government. Look at the prime minister, Lord Derby ; what had he and his ancestors done for the people! They who could look beck to 1831 knew what a prominent part he had taken in the reform of 1831 and 1832. Then what had he done for education? He had assisted the progress of national education more than L any other man in the country. But afterwards, when the political coach was going too fast, and when The women who had locked their flab up, Had gone away to cry "No Bishop," then he thought it was time to put the drag on, and he advocated the maintenance of the constitution of the country, but at the same time maintaining that liberal spirit with which he had started in life. (Hear, hear.) Let them look next at the leader of the House of Com mons—a man under whom any one might be proud to serve. With mature knowledge as a statesman, and with indomitable oourage, he had fur nearly 20 years kept to gether a large political party of upwards of 250 men, not by a division of the sweets of office, but in opposition. Other old and tried men in the ministry he need not enu merate, but he would venture to affirm that the new men, who had taken office for the first time, might be ranked as at least equal to any that they might take from the other aide for habits of wisdom, krowledge of affairs, and eloquence in debate. There was the Lord President, the Duke of Buckingham, he would venture to say that there was not another man who could be at all compared with hint as a man of busi ness, and for general knowledge of affairs. Then there were Lord Stanley (at the bead of foreign affairs), Lord Cranborne, and not forgetting Mr. Cave, who was con nected with Gloucestershire. (A voice, " What about the two Chancellors of the Exchequer !") Why, he would say that the wise matured actions of the present Chancellor of the Exchequer were not to be compared with the ac tions of the late Chancellor. Then as to foreign politica, he would ask, were they always to be silent respecting what was doing abroad! Were they never to interfere or to see what was going on on the continent! If so, they would hereafter become a second Denmark. It was not that they were always to be inter fering, promising, cajoling, and then forsaking their allies when the time for help came. (Hear, hear.) That was the course that had been pursued by this country towards Denmark. With regard to our army and navy, it was agreed on all hands that if we were not active in taking part in an efficient maintenance of our army and navy while other countries were doing so much they might be left in a dangerous position. Numerous public questions required consideration, but the reform coach stopped the way. He was not going to discuss the position in which the question stood beyond saying this, that the question became one of great importance when they considered that the extreme radical party had thought it right to unite itself with the trades unionist in order to effect its ptirpose. That was a fact pregnant with danger. He asked them to consider the extreme opin ions which during this autumn had been ad vanced at great political meeticgs, and he ventured to ask why the public had not got some declaration from some of the leaders of the whig party to the effect that they could not go 'the length of the extreme radicals. It was right that they should have some declaration from the leaders of the liberal party to the effect that they were not prepared to go that length. In this position of affairs, lie thought it was impossible that they could have men , more able to satisfy the requirements of the country than the present government. If there was to be an alliance of the Jibe-als with the extreme radicals, then they hail arriv,al at a moment of danger, and he called on all mode rate men of whatever party to cast their lot, not with Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright, but with those who would up ' hold their present constitution and oppose revolution. , The re-elected member having been " girt with the , sword" in the usual manner, the proceedings terminated , with a vote of thanks to the high sheriff. REPRESENTATION OF WATERFORD. —MT. E. De La I'ocr, of (;urteen, has issued an address to the electors of Waterford, offering himself as a candidate for the repre sentation of the county in parliament, in the room of Lord Tyrone, raised to the peerage by the death of his father, the Marquis of Waterford. Mr. De La l'oer an murices himself as a liberal. On Wednesday the Hon. W. C. Talbot, its., was nominated as a candidate in the conservative interest by an influential meeting at 'Water ford. Mr. W. Malcolumon in the only other probable can didate whose name has been mentioned. AN EXTRAORDINARY ELECTION MEETING.—A meeting of a riotous and at the same time humorous character has taken place in Belfast in connexion with the impending election for that borough. Mr. M'Meehsn, a barrister on the Irish north-east circus, having announced his intention of contesting the representation with the conservative candidate, Mr. Lar.yon, on principles of a mixed Orange and Roman catholic description, summoned his friends to the Music-hall to hear an explanation of his views, whereupon a placard appeared, calling a meeting, running thus :—" Belfast Election.—' I am certain of sue- Oen, because the Roman catholic' and the Orangemen will give me their united support. William 31 . 3leehan.' A grand promenade and fancy concert will be given in the Music-hall on Tuesday evening, 13th instant, at seven o'clock, in honour of Don Quixote M'Meehan and the new Alliance' By special request, Sancho I'anza Trimble will sing the popular song, Slap Bang,' to the tune of the ' Jolly Cobblers '--Quidquid id eat. Ti meo Danamt et led Jennies." Information" having been sworn that a breach of the peace was apprehended, the second meeting was countermanded ; and when Mr. M'Meehan appeared on the platform, the usual interrup tions of groans, hisses, and exclama.ions were liberally i supplemented by songs, in solos and choruses, a flutist in the gallery playing an accompaniment, and " Kentish fire" being given with great energy between the verses. " The Protestant Boys " " who fear no noise," and " never will surrender," was repeatedly performed, varied with " Jolly Dogs," and a chant, with a three-times-three refrain of " Billy 0." "The Green" was also sung—a composition in which the inferiority of the shamrock to the Orange lily was declared. An indescribable scene of confusion oc curred, several fights took place, and more than one per son was hurt. THE FRANKLIN MEMOEIA L.—This memorial, which was voted by parliament, and has been erected in Waterloo-place, was unveiled yesterday. The statue of Sir John is Bft. 4in. high, cast in bronze by ➢lessrs. Robin son and Cotten,. The pedestal is of polished granite from Aberdeen. The moment selected for representation is that in which Franklin had the great satisfaction of describing to his officers and crew that the " North-west Passage " had at length been discovered. He grips in his hand the telescope, chart, and compasses, and wears the uniform of a naval commander, with a loose overcoat of fur. The likeness has been pronounced by Lady Franklin and those who knew the great explorer best to be characteristic and excellent. The bas-relief in front of the pedestal repre sents the funeral of Franklin, where Captain Crozier reads the service for the dead. He is surrounded by the officers and crews of the two ships, Erebus and Terror. Their names are recorded in bronze panels at the sides of the memorial. In the back panel is an embossed chart of the Arctic regions, showing the position of the ships at the time of Franklin's death. THE LATE GALE.—The storm had considerably moderated yesterday, but the weather still continued " dirty," and the sky very much overclouded. No further disasters have been reported, nor had anything further been heard of the vessel wrecked on Wednesday afternoon on the Blackwater Bank ; and the ship British Lion, which went ashore on Wednesday morning, near Ger sten, still remains fast, and at low water lies high and dry on the shore. _ _ [Advertisement.}- HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—Mood News !—Honours, title. wealth. or station, may be desirable possessions, but they are not, like health, necessary to man's happiness.

Sittinp in Itanoo. --(Before the Lord Chief Justice end Initiate Mellor, nee, end Lush). IN NI 111 ARIirfRATION. Mr. Garth, Q.C., moved on behalf of Mra. Jane for a ride to show cause why one of the masterstrz court should not review his taxation. Mrs. Ingram was the owner of a house in New-court, Carey-street, required for the New Palace of Justice, and her claim for compen sation went before an arbitrator, when it was necessary to call surveyors of eminence to speak to the value of the property, and it was against the large amount which the master had taxed off from the fees paid that this appeal was made. The Lord Chief Justice said the master was acting under a statutory authority, and not cis master of the court, and he did not see what jurisdiction the court had over him. Mr. Garth said there were two decisions on the point, one in his favour and one against him. Mr. Justice Lush said the act applied to Ireland as well as England, and there were two denaions in Ireland against him. The Lord Chief Justice said there was sufficient doubt upon the point to give the rule if the facts would war rant it. Mr. Garth said Mrs. Ingram claimed to be allowed to be repaid the sums which she had paid on what was called Ityde's scale, adopted by the Royal Commissioners, and also by all railways and public) companies. Mr. Farmer, Mr. Fox, Mr. Cronin, and two others had charged and been paid 20 guineas each, but the master refused to allow more than three guineas each. The Lord Chief Justice said it was not because railways and public companies with plenty of money chose to pay such high fees that the court should sanction them. What was the amount of compensation given, and how long did the reference last! Mr. Garth-1,500f. There were five surveyors on, each side. The inquiry only lasted a very short time because the matter was arranged almost immediately after the case was opened. Mr. Justice Mellor said that if the coats were to be dif ferent from the nisi prius scale, it was then a matter in the discretion of the master, and clearly then the court could not interfere. The Lord Chief Justice said reference in the act to the master showed that the legislature did not intend it to be a taxation on the wide and liberal principles referred to, but according to the scale which prevailed in courts of justice. There would be no rale. Mr. Garth said his client MU a lady, and it was hard to make her understand that what a prudent person spent in an inquiry of this kind ought not to be allowed in costs. Rule refused. 4 THE EX.P .• J A ROMANCE OF TSB ILLBOIIETAGE. About thirteen years ago Mr. Roger Charles Tiehborne, a young man, the eldest son of Sir James Tteh boene, Bart., the representative of an ancient Hampshire catholic family, left Southampton for Havre. He had been in the army, and, like other young men of rank and fortune, had been gay and extravagant. In a tit of spleen he left this country for France, whence he intended to set out for South America. A nun-servant acoompanied him, . . but left him in France, and has recently died. The ship in which Mr. Tichborne was supposed to have sailed to South America was lost, and something belonging to him was found with the relics of that ship, and, as he was never heard from, he was mourned as dead. His mother, the present Dowager Lady Tichborne, however, always entertained some doubt as to the death of her son. Sir James Tichborne succeeded his brother Sir Edward 'rich borne, who took the name of Doughty, after • relative, who left him • large property, and Sir Edward's widow, Lady Doughty, is still living. They had a faithful black servant, named Andrew Bogle, who, on Sir' Edward's death, was pensioned. He married a respectable white woman from the neighbourhood of Southampton, and they afterwards went to Australia, where the wife died. On the death of Sir Francis Tichborne, his second son, Alfred Joseph, succeeded him. He married a daughter of Lord Arundel, of Wardour Castle, and died leaving an infant son and heir. Soon after this the Dowager Lady rich borne received a communication from her long-lost son, stating that he was in Australia, that he purposed coming to England, and enclosed his photograph. This photograph was recognised by her ladyship as the likeness of her eldest son, making allowance for his present age, and the hard ships he hadundergone. The dowager, who resides chiefly in Paris, wrote to him, requesting him to meet her in that city. Soon afterwards Lady Doughty received a letter from Andrew Bogle, stating that he had met with Mr- Roger Charles Tichborne, and that he was going to accom pany him to Paris; and in the Panama Star of the 9th ult. there is an account of the arrival of the Australian mail steamer, and it is stated that among the passengers were Sir R. C. Tichborne, Bart., Lady Tichborne, and Andrew Bogle. The West India packet that brought the passen gers and mails from the Austialian mail steamer reached Southampton on the 28th ult. The only person who saw Mr. Roger Tichborne off from Southampton was the Rev. Father Mount, the present respected catholic priest of that town. The reverend gentle. man, at the request of the Dowager Lady Tichborne, obtained an introduction to the Australian passengers, one of whom stated that he had made the acquaintance of Sir Roger Tichborne, on his passage to Panama, and that the latter intended to leave the Panama Isthmus in • French mail packet, bound for St. Ramiro, to meet his mother in Paris. This gentleman, at the request of Father Mount, went and saw the Dowager Lady Tichborne, repeated his statement, and asserted that the photograph in her lady ship's possession was the likeness of the person who tra velled as Sir it. C. Tichborne. The French mail packet is daily expected at St. Nazaire. Great numbers of persons believe that the Tichborne family have been imposed on by some clever schemer in Australia. A few days, how ever, will decide the matter. The following are extracts from Australian papers: The Wooga Wagga Express, of July 21, has the follow ing —" For some months past a vague kind of rumour has been current in Wagga 'Wagga to the effect that a veri table British peer was quietly residing, under an assumed name, in our midst. It was a rumour, however, to which very little credulity was attached, and was oftener the sub ject of jocular allusion than serious remark. It now turns out that, though not quite correct in form, it still approxi mated very nearly to truth. As yet, we have certainly had I no English nobleman for a resident, though we really have been daily brushing up against • baronet for the Last two or three years without knowing it. The individual to whom we refer has, up to the present time, been known to our townsmen only as ` Tom Castro,' and, during his re sidence amongst us, has occupied a very humble station in life. Recent events have disclosed the fact that his reel name is not Castro, but Roger Charles Tichbourne, eldest son and heir-at-law to the late Sir James Tichborne, Baronet, of Tichborne-park, Hants. To the title and estates he now succeeds, together with an income of between 10,000/. and 15,000/. per annum. The history of the new baronet is rather a singular one. On or about the year 1554, being then quite a lad, and of rather a roving disposition, he quitted England in the ship Be ll a, which was, a few weeks later, wrecked off the port of Rio Janeiro. Young Tichborne escaped to the land, minus his worldly goods, and then assumed the name of Castro, and as nothing was afterwards heard of him, it was believed that he had perished, and in the British peerages he was reported dead. South American manners not being suited to his tastes, he again embarked on board a ship bound to Australia, and in due course arrived in Sydney. Being then without either money or friends, he was thrown entirely upon his own resources, and expe rienced Lis full share of the rough vicissitudes of colo nial life. After trying his hand at various callings and travelling over a greater portion of the colony, he at last became connected with a small business in Tumut, which he subsequently gave up, and then removed to Wagga Wagga, where, until within the last few weeks, he has continued to reside, and where, in the early part of the present year, he was married. Soon after his departure from England, his father, Sir James Tichborne, died, and his estates then passed to his second son, Alfred Joseph, who was afterwards married to a slaughter of the Earl of Arundel. After a time, a knowledge of these events came to the ears of our quondam friend Castro, but, as he had been much attached to his younger brother in his early childhood, and as he felt that his lengthened colonial wanderi , gs had, in a measure, unfitted him for the life of an English country gentleman, he did not attempt to disturb the succession, and still continued to preserve his incognito. His brother Alfred Joseph is now dead, and, as the strongest reason for the voluntary resignation of his patrimony is now removed. Mr. Castro has resumed his real name, and taken the title which be longs to him of right, and is now about to proceed to Eng as Sir Roger Charles Tichborne, to take posses sion of the family estates. Sir Roger was, we believe, to have MAW by the Kaikoura, but arrived in Sydney • few hours too late. The Tichbornes, or, as they were for merly called, the Dutchburns, are a very old family who have been settled for many generations in Hampshire." The Gout/men //crab?, of July 21. states :—" The mother in-law of the new baronet is Mrs. James l'ain, a (toulburn resident, and wife of a labouring man. Lady Tichborne in the daughter of Mrs. Pain's first husband, who was a plasterer named Bryan, and met his death some years ago by falling downstairs or off a holder during the progress of the erection of a house." The Tamed Times of August 27 nays It may perhaps be in the recollection of many of our readers that a than calling himself Thomas de Castro left Tuna's and opened • butchering establishment at Wagga Wagga. It now turns out that the said Thomas De Castro is no less a person than Sir Roger Charles Tich borne, with lauded estates bringing in a rental of 9.000/. per annum, and an accumulative fund of some 50,000 u. in the bank. De Castro was in possession of his title and property when living in Tumut. but not having been in communication with his family for some years, he was not aware of his good fortune." The following letter was received by Lady Doughty : " Sydney. August 20, 1540.—My Lady.—l hope these few lines will find your ladyship, Mr. and MN. Radcliffe, and family, quite well. I send your ladyship these to inform your ladyship that Sir Roger and Lady Tichborne are in Sydney, also one little girl six months old, that they leave Sydney by the mail (Panama and New Zealand) on the Ist proximo, a"d lam going with them. Sir Roger goes direct to Paris to his mother, and I am going to take her ladyship from Southampton to Upton. Her ladyship is a native of Australia, about 22 or 93 years of age. We have had an extremely cold winter this year. and I have had may rheumatics very badly in consequence. My family are all quite well, and I am bringing the youngest (Henry) with me to England. I shall be so glad to see your lady ship ones more— a pleasure which I thought I should not enjoy again ; but, please God, in two months' time I shall set foot on Old England, and see all my friends once more. —With my duty to your ladyship, I sag to remain, your ladyship's humble servant, ANDREW lit , RLE'" te THE VICTORIA TOWN ESTATE, LATE THE GOVERN MENT NAVT-YABI), DE.u..—A public meeting was held at the Guildhall on Wednesday night, the Mayor (Alderman Cavell) iu the chair, at which a deputation of the Conser. vative Land Society, consisting of Mr. Newnham Win stanley (director), and Messrs. C. L Gruneisen and J. Wylson, secretary and surveyor of the society, attended, to explain the system of allotment of the second portion of the Victoria estate. It was stated by the Mayer that the Navy-yard and all its buildings had entirely disappeared, and in its place was a splendid esplanade fronting the sea, with lines of new streets laid out, new roads constructed, and a complete system of drainage completed under the joint superintendence of the town council and the society. The Mayor aided that Deal was immensely benefited by these works, and that now a great want had been, supplied, namely, the securing of sites for the erection of villas and houses, every year visitors being unable to find accommodation in the Old Town, and such was the increas ing dernanfl for hotel accommodation and lodging and boarding houses, that the place occupied by the govern mentworks was the only locality with sea frontagesadapted to meet the wants of the town. The sea promenade was one of the finest on the sea coast, and the Mayor fur ther pointed out the view therefrom that day of nearly 500 ships in the Downs, detained by westerly winds, as one of imposing interest and grandeur. After the deputa tion had explained the society's system, resolutions of thanks to the society's deputation and to the board of the Conservative Land Society, as well as to the Mayor, were unanimously passed.

QUEENSLANI)GoVERNM ENT EMICRATION.—OrderE have been received by Mr. Jordan, Agent-General for th , Colony of Queensland, to discontinue all free and waste emigration. The principle of the land-order system is still to be maintained, giving land in the proportion of thirty acres to persons paying their own passages by ships going direct to the colony. The land-orders will be given to cabin passengers going by any line of vessels, but for the next sir months, until May the 11th, lfir7, will be re etricteil in the case of steerage or intermediate passengers to those who go in ships belonging to, or chartered by, Messrs. T. M. Mackay, Son, and Co., London, and Messrs. J. Raines, Taylor, and Co., Liverpool. The resignation of Mr. Jordan, as Agent-General for Emigration for Queens land, sent in some months since, has been accepted. Mr. • Jordan came to England more than five years since to establish the land-order system of emigration, and nearly forty thousand persons have gone to the colony under his direction. The large number of navvies who have been sent out during the last two years to construct the Queens land railways were not selected by the Agent-General, the sanction of this class having been entrusted to the railway contractors and their agents. THE ANON - Y][OTE DONATION TO THE POPE.— The account given by the Sun lay Gazette of the cheque for 500!. which was sent anonymously to Archbishop Manning for the Pope was not quite correct. The archbishop received a letter dated the sth of November, enclosing the amount stated, but it was not signed " Guy Faux, a Protes tant." The unknown benefactor said that, being influ enced by Dr. Manning's pastoral of Rosary Sunday, he enclosed the money for the use of the Pope ; adding that, although to him it might be but a trifle, to the giver it was a considerable amount, being, in fact, the whole of his savings. Whether the gift came from a protestant or a Boman catholic there is nothing to show. The letter was ' signed with initials only, and the bankers did not mention, as alleged, the religi on o f th e person by whom they were instructed to pay the cheque. p .: iI BUSINESS OP THZ COURT. The Lord Chief Justice said that in consequence of Mr. Justice Blackburn and Mr. Justice Lush having to go the winter circuit, and the court sitting in error, there would only be one day's post-terminal sitting in bunco, and that on the 27th November, on which day the special paper only would be taken. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. —Nov. 15. Sittings in Banoo.—(Before the Lord Chief Baron and Barons Bramwell, Channell, and Pigott.) POWELL V. CHANCE.-SAVAGE V. CHANCE. These were plaints in the County Court of Birming ham to recover in each instance a sum of 41. 541. for damage sustained by the escape of chloric acid gas from the chemical works of Messrs. Chance, in a small village near that town. During the present term a rule had beenobtained by Mr. Hudaleston, Q.C., on the part of the defendants for a certiorari to remove the plaints to this court on the ground that they were cases which involved important scientific questions as to the apparatus used by the defend ants, and the effects of the gas evolved, and could only be properly tried by a special jury in one of the superior courts. Mr. J. Powell, Q.C., now showed cause against the rule contending that it would be a denial of justice to the plaintiffs, the humble shopkeepers in the town, if they were driven into the superior courts to recover these small sums. It appeared that an action against the defendants in volving the same question had been tried at the Gloucester assizes before Mr. Baron Channell, and that the defendants had since adopted some improvements in their works with a view to abate the nuisance. The present plaintiffs alleged on their affidavits that the nuisance complained of was owing not so much to any defect in the apparatus of the defendants as to the negligence of their servants. It seemed that the defendants had for some years paid Powell, who kept a draper's shop, and other pal-ties in the town, small sums of money for injury done to their goods by the noxious vapours. Mr. Iluddleston having been beard on the other side, The Court thought that those cases involving very trifling claims were peculiarly ones to be tried in the County Court, and refused to make the rule absolute ; they, however, in timated that if. after two or three of the cases had been tried in the Birmingham County Court the defendants found it was absolutely necessary for the purposes of justice to have the questions determined by a superior court, another application could easily be made to this court. Rule discharged. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Nov. 15. (Before Mr. Commissioner Gottlburn.) IN RE J. C. GREENHILL. The bankrupt, a merchant, of Fenchurch-street, recently applied for his order of discharge from debts of 1E4,2447., against which the assets and property held as security were returned at 7,800/. Ile was opposed by Mr. Bagley for the assignees, and Mr. Phelps for creditors, and sup ported by Mr. Reed. His Honour now gave judgment. He inquired in the first instance. how much of the 5,3001. worth of pro perty said to be given up tothe assignees had been realized ? Mr. Bagley said that the item represented the estimated value of consignments to Tasmania, but that only 451. had yet been received, and the receipt of anything further was very doubtful, for the assignees had done all in their power, but without success, to realise those consignments which had been made to most uncertain markets. His Honour said it was a most disgusting result. The accounts were evidently fallacious and calculated to de ceive the creditors; and the case altogether was very dis creditable to the bankrupt. He had been confidential clerk in the house of Messrs. Cockerel! for many years, and in that capacity had acquired the confidence of many customers of that house. On the strength of that he started business on his own account without capital. He then proceeded to make the most reckless ventures in the way of consignments to India and elsewhere ; he soon found himself in difficulties, and proposed a composition, but was only able to pay the first instalment, and then wholly broke down. Instead of holding his hand when he found he could not meet his engagements, he contracted a debt with Messrs. John Grave and Co., of Manchester, at a time when he could have had no reasonable prospect of making payment. The assignees in this case (the Fore street 1% , arehousing Company) were bona fide creditors, but had very good-naturedly withdrawn their opposition, believing that there was no fraud in the case ; but on the , ground urged by Dlessrs. Grave who were creditors for M above :t., the bankrupt was clearly within the statute; and his order would be suspended for six months, on the ground of contracting debts without probable means of payment. Protection would be given for three months. THE POLICE COURTS. DIANSION-HOUSE. A young man, who gave the name of William Alfred Rushbrook, was brought up in custody of Police-constable Charles Smith, fri2, and charged before Alderman Sir H. W. Carden with endeavouring to obtain money by forgery and false pretences, with intent to defraud. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Wm. Charity, who is manager to the Drug Company (Limited), who carry on business in Upper Thames-street, that on Wednesday the prisorer presented himself at the counting-house and handed in a letter, which purported to come from the firm of Messrs. Barron, Harvey, and' Co., of Gilt. pur-street. Tb • letter ran thus :—" The bearer, J. Marshall, has been in our employ as clerk for four years, but left through ill ness in November last, but his (Pie in original) endeavour ing by a subecription to , go back to Melbourne. (Signed) BARRON' and HARVEY.' On the fly-sheet to the above were the following pretended donations, viz. :—Barron and Harvey, 51. ; L. ani Co., sa. ; and Ferris and Co., ss. ; Mr. Charity knew the signature of the firm of Barron and Harvey, and felt certain that this letter had not been written by any member of the firm, and he in consequence interrogated the prisoner, finally telling him that he should keep the letter to make inquiries, and that he must call again for a reply on a future day. The prisoner, in an i impudent tone, said be could not call again, and he was about to leave the premises, but Mr. Charity detained him, sent for a constable, and gave him into custody. Mr. Simpson, apartner in the firm of Barron and Harvey, proved that the letter produced was not in the hand writing of any of the firm, and that the signature was a forgery. The prisoner had never been in their service, either as clerk or in any other capacity. Alderman Sir It. W. Carden inquired whether any thing was previously known of the prisoner, upon which Chief Warder George Ager presented himself, and in formed the court that the prisoner had been twice in Holloway prison under summary convictions for endea vouring to obtain money by false pretences. In February, 1866, he had been sentenced in this court to two months' imprisonment, and on the 10th May last he had three months from Guildhall.. Warder Joseph Smith, from the Middlesex House of Correction is Cldbath-fields, proved that the prisoner had been sentenced at Clerkenwell to three months' hard labour in that prison for stealing a pair of trousers in December, 1363. The witness believed there were four other convictions, which he was not prepared to show the dates of, as he had only seen the prisoner in custody that morning. He (the officer) should be able to establish that fact at the trial The prisoner in a sullen and morose tone said it was no use to offer any defence, and therefore he declined to say anything. The prisoner was then fully committed for trial at the ensuing session of the Central Criminal Court, and Alderman Sir It. W. Carden took octagon to emplaned THE GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY. Mr. Ch►rity for the manner in which he bad brought this impudent offender to justice. BOW-STMT. Messrs. Jesse Weed and Hawkins, ci Beitle-bridp, marble dealers, and Maria Ozbary, • carman in their employ, appeared to summonses char gi ng the carman with ill-treating two horsy sad tt.e employers with causing them to be ill-treated. The summonses had been issued at the instance ci Mr. Love, of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Mr. Abrams appeared for the prosecution ; and Mr. Clark for the defence. It appeared that on the 11th October the defendant Ox berry was sent to Westminster to fetch a block of marble weighing about 3 tons, upon a trolly weighing 25ewt., with two horses, • large and • small one. He had instructions to borrow two more horses of • Mr. Pearson, who supplied him with a couple of oohs, but one of these being some what difficult to manage be sent it back, and went on with the two horses and one cob. In Bt. Martin's-lane the horses became exhausted, and were unable to drag the load up the incline. A person named Treherne who happened to be passing, saw th e carman dogging the gorses most unmercifully. He remonstrated with the carman and asked the weight, which he stated as above. The carman borrowed a horse from • carter who was pawing, but even with that additional aid it was impossible to move the load. A man was pawing with some horses, and the carman borrowed two, and again attempted to get the trolly along, but in vain. Ultimately two stronger horses were procured, and the vehicle was dragged up the hill. They had only got as far as Broad-street, Blomsbury, however, when • similar scene was repeated. Mr. Vaughan commented strongly on the barbarous con duct of Oxberry, and observed that the public were in debted to the witness Treherne for the course he had taken. He should commit Oxberry to prison for two months with hard labour, and order the employers to pay the costa. - - Thomas William Forman, of Walnut-tree-walk, tim ber merchant, William Warner, his foreman, and Jan Whitby, a carman, were charged upon similar sum- In this case one horse had been employed to draw a heavy load of timber, and, sa in the former came, the route was up hilL Mr. Cherry, the police veterinary surgeon, declared that the load would have been too much for the horse on level ground. When Young, an officer of the society, called on Mr. Forman, he said heimpposed he must go to Bow-street, and pay 20s.

Norton taking his seat on the bench, a decent-looking man entered the witness box and applied to him for his advice under the following circumstances : The applicant said that in the month of July, 1865, be was in the service of Messrs. Deardon and Buxton, railway contractors, and while employed in dressing some bricks on a sewer at Wandsworth, a brick wall fell on him, burying him from head to foot, and it was with some difficulty he was got out alive. The injuries he received were so severe that he had to be taken to the hospital, where he remained for some weeks, and some time after he was recom mended to a person who, he understood, was an attorney, in order to bring an action against the contractors for damages. He accordingly called on that person, who took down his statement, with the intention of bringing the action, and though he paid him 21., he had not been able from that time to the present to get any account from him as to what had become of the action, beyond his saying on one occasion that he bad put the case in the hands of an attorney. Mr. Norton—Do you recollect this person representing himself as an attorney when you first called on him or when you paid him the money? Applicant—l cannot call to mind that be did, but I was under the impression that he was a lawyer. I am still suffering from the effects of the injury, and I don't know whether the case may not have been compromised with the contractors. The applicant here handed to the magis trate a receipt for 21. on account of costa. Mr. Norton thought it a case in which some explanation should be given, and desired one of the summoning officers to inquire into the matter. A Court of Common Council was held yester day, in the Long Parlour at the Mansion-house, at which the Loan MAYOR (Alderman Gabriel), who was received with every mark of cordiality and reap ect by the members, presided. The usual complimentary resolution to the retiring Lord Mayor, for the able manner in which he had performed the duties of chief magistrate of the City of London during his year of office, was passed. On the mo tion of Mr. J. E. Saunders. the sum of 5001. was voted towards the fund now being raised for the relief of the sufferers from the fire in Quebec. The Town Clerk read a communication that had been received from Mr. Buzzard, the vestry clerk of St. James's, West minster, enclosing a resolution that had been come to by the vestry to invite all the other parishes in the metropolis to co-operate with them in procuring an amend• meat of the Metropolis Gas Act, Diek, and inviting the corporation to join in the endeavour to effect that object. Mr. J. F. Bontems said he had great pleasure in informing the court that the special gas committee had been in com munication with the Home Secretary and the President of the Board of Trade, and they had received an intimation from those gentlemen that it WWI the intention of the government to introduce a bill next session of parliament with a view to carry out the suggestions of the committee of the House of Commons in reference to the supply of gas to the metropolis. Deputy Ferrer said that in reference to the proceedings that had taken place at the last court relating to a proposed alteration in the municipal fran chise of the City, he should be glad if the chairman of the Local Government and Taxation Committee would inform him whether it was intended by the proposed bill to make any alteration in the qualifications of the candidates as well as those of the electors. (Hear.) Mr. Lawley, the chair man of the committee in question, said it was not intended to make any alteration in the qualification of candidates. Mr. H. L. Taylor, the chairman of the Markets Improve ment Committee, laid before the court a report from Mi Horace Jones, the City architect, relative to the works at the market in Smithfield, by which it appeared that the excavations at the eastern end of the market were expected to be completed in about three weeks, and that all the wet columns to support the building would very shortly be ready. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Taylor said he was very glad to be able to supplement the report of the architect, by informing the court that he thought at the present time they could see their way to a commencement . . of the market. (" Hear, gear," and laughter.) The ad journed debate upon the motion of Mr. Bedford, " that it be referred to the City Lands Committee to ascertain whether, by the expenditure of a part of the corporal( funds in the purchase of some of the worst portions the property in the City inhabited by the poorest classes of the community, some relief cannot be afforded without lose to the corporation, to " • state of things that is described by the leading journal as shocking to humanity, and disgusting and horrifying beyond description," was rt Bunted. After considerable discussion the motion was car ried, the words following being added, after the word corporation ; " and with a view to remedy the increasin evil of overcrowding in dwelling-houses in the City," the suggestion of Mr. Deputy Fry. Dr. Saunders gal notice that at the next court he would move for the al pointment of a special committee to inquire into the sar tary condition of the dwellings of the poor in the City London, and what precautions were taken by the Commis sioners of Sewers upon the recent outbreak of cholera remedy the same. Some other business was disposed and the court adjourned after a long sitting. After our report left yesterday, the following re resolution—" That this meeting, having heard the cap? nations of Mr. Wears and other gentlemen, is of opini that an association should be forthwith forme consisting of such shareholders of the Grim Eastern Railway Company as shall be willing to join Cm same, and that such association shall be called 'The Great Eastern Shareholders' Defence Association,' "—was carried unanimously.
