Lot night the third anniversary festival of the M e ee l destoolest College was celebrated at the Leaden Tay es. the Right it... the Bawl of CARLISLI in the chair, when a isegeoewspany, Coes:Ades of nearly 200 perms, sat daand W a Maser provided in the usual excellent style of ads volidarrem meallithinest.

The ClSAllnitts, in proposing the tout of " Her Majesty the Clasen," ancithased that her Majesty bad been pleased to become the patron of the institution, end consisted to have it hereafter designated by the name of the "Royal Medical College." (Cheers.) The toot wee drunk with the greatest enthusiasm, as were the ether loyal toasts. ev the toast of The Ciataatax, is propce in g the ening, said that though he felt he mold not refer is the present lrotates to a venerable antiquity, or appeal to a lea; re trospect of yeah dads( which it had dispensed a seines of benefits arnoapt the sessiaanity—though the precast was sot a centenary es &jubilee festival. but the third festival of the iastitutioa dales its foundation—h• was acre it had other claims which deserved regard and attention. Setting aside therefore the alums of antiquity and preseriptieo, is • :smeary where the population was increasing in as im mime ratio, and where tows' were becoming proportionally enlarged—where sew wassem, sew arts, and new wants were springing op around them every day, it was fitting that fresh expedients shoeld be devised to most fresh szigeneits, sad that new channels should be opened to satisfy the new waste that arose in such a state of things. (Hear, hear.) No one would deny that this was eminently the cam with regard to the medical profession, which was largely stocked; which was hardly worked, and wt ich had but few larillisat prizes. (Hear, hear.) Not that he meant to halinnike fns a moment that any person, nut properly qualified, eight obtain those prises except by his own intrinsic remelt—and many blanks. An institution, therefore, which hod for its object to provide foe the disabled members, and the widows and orphans of the anthem of the medical profee sift, was emisently entitled to support. (Hear, hear.) This society proposed to open an extensive building where de• awed medical tea would be received, or—if they had sunk ,' into pressmen graves—where their widows would IM received; where in some instances pensions would be gives, sad when ediseatios—grateitoue in some come—worse be gives to their corphass. (Hear, hear.) Now an tee asiesties like this had claims—he would not sur the aattesal attention, bemuse they did not look to male laterference or help—but it had prominent claims on nubile sympathy, and he would add. to justice. For what was the prolusion in MIK dififish he pleaded Their attention was now and sere apeeielly to their brave soldiers aid sailors.

He blared it would not be deemed impertinent ia hint to re mark that ia these stirring and observant times, the medical department itself. so far ea it was connected with the military service, had not been wholly free from some of the charges of neglect and shortcoming to which so many other depart ments bad been unfortunately subjected. (Hey, hear.) Them, he trusted, were bat temporary evils, which would vanish under the application of strict and impartial inquiry, sad patient and persevering reform. (Cheers.) But if the seed now awn was properly supported and encouraged by the gentlemen of the profession themselves and by the public, it would strike its roots far downwards and stretch its goodly boughs for upwards, and in time bear the rich promise of fruit through a lose sucessaion of generation,. (Cheers.) He would conclude by calling:on them to drink "Prosperity and success to the Royal Medical College." (Chests.) The toast was drunk with all the honours. Mr. Powsnxt proposed " The Health ,of the Clergy," which was responded to by Dr. CSOLT. The Cisallttale next proposed " The Health of Dr. Pro pert, the treasurer and Mender of theisatitation." Dr. Poorest' acknowledged the MO, which was drunk with great enthusiasm, by saying that be was deeply grate ful for the mariner in which his aim hod bees received.

(Cheers.) It had been said that the Mediation was his, but it was nsueh more theirs who supported it, sad still more theirs for whose benefit it was intended. (Cheers.) Viethent EIZINOTON proposed "The health of the Chair man, the new Lord-Lieutenant of Indeed." (Cheers.) Mr. Hama, who acted as toastmaster, having put the tout in the words in which it was given by the noble pro poser, it was received with great applause. The C11•1111AN, in returning thanks, said, though be did not wish to dissemble the high distinction and honour which had been conferred upon him by his noble friend:mad the excellent official behind him—(laughter)—yet he weld more them he should evilr look back with pleasure to the time in which he was associated with to many members of the medical profession in promoting measures for the oda tary improvement of the country. (Cheers.) Several other toilets followed in the course of the ormilas. Dr. PHOPIRT read a long list of subscriptions mad dm. tithe, the total amount of which was 2,156/. The estaimew meet of the receipts was received with loud cheers. It may be desirable to mention that the building at Sp. sera is expected to be open for the reception of scholars la October sort. The building will accommodate 200= whom 26 will be cm the foundation, 75 received at a rate, and the other 100, who may be the sons of thsSMl soya a say other, will be received at the full rate, CON DUCT OF THE WAR.—A public meeting of the working classes of Nottingham was held on Tuesday even ing, the 27th ult., in the Assembly Rooms, Nottingham.

The report, having been circulated several days before the meeting, was taken as read. The CHAINALN sad, in moving the adoption of the re port, he had to call attention to the statement of accounts, which bad been circulated some days before. The receipts for the ball-year ending December 31. 1864, amounted to 680,1291., the working expenses to 273.3691., the fixed charges to 38,6611, the interest on bonds and preference shares to 139.6241, leaving for division among the pro priston 138,2811 , which was at the rats of 61. 16s. per cent. per annum for the half year. As the entire line had been open only two years be thought the beat entree would be to take the two half- e ats of IBM together and oompare them with those of 1853. The receipts of 1854 showed a considerable increase over those of 1863. In the former year the receipts amounted to 1,050,0001.. the working expenses to 616,6961., the fixed charges to 77,0681., the interest on bonds and orderlies. shares to 268,744/. ; leaving a dividend at the rate of 41 per eent..per annum , which he hope d the proprietors would °milder very satisfactory. (Cheers.) He was quite ready to admit that the workiog expenses of the past year were more than he had expected they would be, amounting to very nearly 60 per cent. The directors had called the Mee. tion of the heeds of the. various departments to the fact that, notwithstanding the increased per canteen of expendi ture in 1853, there was a still further increase is WM, theme gapers having given them to understand, and it being • popular doetnne, that as reeeipte increased the per center of working expenses would decrease. The emcee was owing to the enhanced cost of wages, iron, oil, tallow, and other items of expense ; and it would be the duty of the directors to watch the expenditure, and to take care at all events that thers should be no further increase. (Hear.) Ia the year 1853, the receipts were 869,9091., the working expenses 388,9641., the fixed charges 77,0921., the interest en bonds and preference shares 246,0001.; leaving a surplus of 179,3111., which gave a dividend for the year 18.53 of 31. 14s ltd., as against 41. 61. in the year which had just ter minated. These were the only two years between which then could be anything like an accurate comparison of the result of the working of the railwa7. The year 1854 gave an in ertias' of 181,1721 in the receipts, as compared with these of the previous year; and, while the working expense, of that year were 127,7321. mote than in 18.53, and while the in crease in the interest on bonds and preference shares amounted to 23,0001. additional, the amount available foe dividends wee increased by the sum of 26,2841. Ha would net trouble the meeting with any further details, but he hoped they would agree with him that • comparison of the two Tan during which the whole line bad been open presented a result which was highly satisfactory. (Bear ) Then was not much in the report which appeared to call for remark from himself. Among the questions raised in itthat connected with the Ambergate Railway was perhaps the most interesting. The directors recommended the adoption of the arrangement, because it would give the company at once free access to the town of Nottingham, while, if the Amber gate line proved profitable, they would have the option of purchasing it within ten years on terms specified. He ad mitted that 30 per cent. was • low figure for the working ; but he thought the advantages of having an teens to Not tingham, and the right of bringing the traffic of that tows by way of Grantham to London, were • sufficient eompen sation. The hon. gentleman then moved the adoption of the report. Mr. Brume° was decidedly opposed to the bill to obtain for the company power to build and endow a church at Doncaster. (Hear, hear.) In that scheme the directors were entering on the field of controversy, and engaging is ezpenditare which could n be stepped. He bad no objection to church extension ; but churches must not be paid for out of the capital of the shareholders. (Cheers.) The moment the church was built it would cease to be the property of the company. (Hear, hear.) He should like to know how much the directors wished to sped on the cherub. The CHAIRMAN—A sum not exceeding 6,0001. Mr. Baxter) said ten times that amount might be raised by private subscription. He objected on principle to sash an application of the company's funds. A 8 AAAAA OLDIR inquired whether the 6,0001. included the endowment ? The Citainstaw replied that it did not. Mr. Bru.nro then moved that no money be spent by the company on church building until the dividend amounted to 8 par emit. Mr. CRADDOCK seconded the motion. In reply to a questi3e, The CHAIRMAN said he did not know what number of the company's workmen at Doncaster would be accommo dated in the church. Mr. CARPENTER said it was one thing to appropriate Money for religious instruction and another thing to build a church over which they would have no control. It was doubtful whether, after the church had been opened, they would be able to secure accommodation in it for their own workmen. Seven millions of the company's capital would sot contribute in any way to the expense—three millions would have to hear the whole burden ; and if there was any sass of shareholders who were entitled to special considera tion it was those who were not g u teed, and these would have to pay all the expense. He would move, therefore, the omission of that part of the report which related to the church. Mr. litmus thought that, to meet the necessities of the ease, 1,0001. should be appropriated for general religious instruction throughout the line, as • substitute for build- Inca church. The CHAIRMAN said what the di:eaten had done in this matter was done in consequence of a resolution passed Jost year by • majority, after a week's notice that the question was to be introduced; the majority amounting to 46 proprietors, 683,3151. stock, and 3,064 votes. After such • decision the directors would not have been justified in neglecting to take any step founded upon it. A SHAREHOLDIR said, at a meeting of shareholders held at York on the previous Monday a resolution was passed protesting against the capital of the shareholders being ap. propriated to the building and endowing of • church, and declaring that the meeting would use every legal means in their power to oppose such expenditure. 1 Mr. Oluisk expressed his disapproval of the terms of i the agreement with the Ambergate and Nottingham ' Com pany, and moved that section 8 in the report, relating to that subject, should be omitted, and that • committee should be formed of shareholders, not being directors of the Great Northern Company or the Ambergate and Nottingham Company, to examine the books and the list of shareholders of the Ambergate and Nottingham Railway, and to make • report thereon at a special meeting of .the Great Northern Company to be called for that purpose. 1 This resolution having been seconded, The CHAIRMAN proceeded to put the amendments. The result was that Mr. Billing's amendment was withdrawn without being submitted to the meeting, and that Mr. Carpenter's amendment was carried, but afterwards with 'drawn on a poll being called for by the minority The Citmansw observed that if Mr. Giesler's axed. meat were carried, he should regard it as a vote amnia% and should retire from the direction. He then put the Nmendment to the meeting, and it was rejected by a large - TEE OZRAT WILSTRRN RAILWAY CORTANY V.

It will be remembered that in the month of Jane last his hewsier granted an injuaetion in the first of the above named causes, restraining the defendants therein from up lifting or expending any part of their capital, or pledging ee Wg their credit in or about the forming and coo pieties any further portion of the second, or up line, be trine Abbotswood and Oxford, on the narrow gauge, until they should have formed not only their first, or down line, en the broad gauge throughout the whole extent of their line, bat should have constructed and completed the same is all respects to the satisfaction of the engineer for the time being of the Great Western Railway Cienspany, or until further order, but without prejudise as the defendants, the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver hampton Company, completing the second or up line on the mixed gauge between Chart bury and Church Handborough ; the defendants by their counsel undertaking that the broad pip on that part of the up line should be carried on, and aseepleted at the same time with, and not after, the narrow pugs there. The Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhamptee Oempaey had been advised to appeal from that decree, bet instead of so doing, they filed their bill in the second salt, end then moved for an order to di solve toe injunction, en the mead that sines the injunction had been issued, the mews en which it was granted had ceased to exist. Those reasons, as they appeared from the statement in the decree were shortly, that, by the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver hampton Railway Act, 1845, if that company constructed their line with a down and up line, they were bound to do so to the satisfaction in all respects of the engineer tor the time being of the Great Western Company, and so that both lines could be worked continuously with the Great Western Railway; that they had completed or nearly completed along their whole railway a line of broad gauge, and also of narrow gauge, and had also commenced an up line through out nearly all their railway, but on the narrow gauge prin ciple between Wolverhampton and Abbotawood, and Ab botewood and Oxford, laying down the broad gauge on only a very small portion of such line; and that the funds of the company were not sufficient to enable them to complete their railway with lines of both broad and narrow geese within the time limited by an set of parliament passed fins 1852, extending their original time and powers. The fasts which, as It was contended, rebutted these reasons were the following. On the 31st of July, 1854, an act was passed extending the time within which the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway Company were to complete their works to the 31st of July, 1856. I With regard to the funds of the company, it was stated that in February, 1854, a special meeting had authorised the I issuing of certain preference shares, very few of which were, at the homing of the first suit, team up. But since the granting of the injunction, the Oxford, Worcester, end Wolverhampton Company bad, in August last, entered into an /Agreement with Messrs. Peto and Betts, the eminent and welfiknown engineers, to complete the works of the rail• way within such periods, at such prices, and subject to such directions as should be specified by the railway company in a notice to be given by these to Merin. Peto and Betta, l as then agreed upon; and in case of any difference there was to be • reference to Sir William Cubitt, or, is the event ofl Ms death or incapacity, to some other engineer of eminence. The agreement also provided that if the company did proceed with the work., they were to be proceeded with according to that contract, and that the Messrs. Pew and Betts were to perform their part of the contract when so called upon by the said railway, receiving is payment for such performance and work done by them the before mentioned preference shares, at per price. By this arrangement with Messrs. Peto, it was alleged that the funds of the company had been', incrased to en extent far more than sufficient to sae& 1 1 them to complete their line in due time; and it was in -seedl that as that time had been still further extended by the act of 1854, and that as it wee the intention of the plain tiffs in the second suit to apply to parliament for another act to release them from any difficulty and restraint they might et present be under in the completion of their railway (which they said they meant to complete strictly as directed he their respective acts), they could rely upon then cir cumstances as grounds for dissolving the injunction. This motion was heard in December lost, when Mr. Bolt and Mr. 'Gesell appeared fur the Oxford, Wor cuter, and Wolverhampton Company; and the Solicitor- General .sad Mr. G. L. Russell for the Great Western Company. The Vice-Chancellor now gave judgment on the motion in the second suit, and after stating the facts u above mentioned, proceeded to say that the clause in the an of 1854, providing that no prejudice should be done to the right of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Com pany, as to the mode of the construction of their line, at first sight appeared to be contradictory to that which previously enjoined them to complete it on the broad gauge principle throughout ; but what was thereby meant was, that their rights were to be no Shriller affected that as they were altered by that act. Then with regard to the payment of the penalty, if the railway was not completed, as directed by the last act of 1864, one onegeetion was that although an obligation Wel imposed spa the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Company to eamplete and open Unit line on the broad gauge prin ciple, shill, if they those so to do at their peril, they might disregard that ob li gation and pay the penalty. His Honour thought that view a meat erroneous one ; the imposition of the penalty did not remove the urgency of the obligation-- if anything, it strengthened its force. There was just as great an obligation upon the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton Railway, to finish the specified portions of their railway within the specified times, as if there had been the mere direction to do so without the penalty. As to the funds of this company, it appeared, from details into which it was unnecessary for him to enter, that the preference shares at the time when the injunction was granted could not be turned into money so featly as at first supposed. The agreement with Messrs. Peto and Betts was since entered into, and the shares to be taken by them in payment of their work, when done, were declared at a meeting of the company not to be redeemable till December, 1857. Beyond this, and the addition of a small portion of broad gauge rail on the up line, there was no new circumstances stance the hearing of the first suit. What, then, was the effect of these few circumstances? As to the time limited fur the completion of the railway, his Honour found that the plain tiffs in the second suit were directed to finish a 'minion at the north of their line, and another smaller portion at the south, by the 31st of May next ; and he thought they were bound to complete those parts accordingly ; nor would this court, by dissolving the injunction, do any thing to absolve them from that obligation, or from what tended to enforce it, on the ground that they might submit if they chose to the penalty attached to not -performance of their duty. Neither sou their intention of proceeding with a bill in parliament to be listened to; for, although of course his Honour would express no opinion as to the probability or passibility of their success in such an application, be could not estimate the chances of such success, but mast take the several acts affecting this railway as he found them. Ilia Honour thought it would, prima facie, be very absurd to suppose that the legislature, having passed several sets regulating this company, binding them to construct a line that could be worked continuously with that of the Great Western Railway, in each act imposing similar obligations, establishing the same principles of relationship between the two companies, and insisting at last on a double line of broad gauge, to be completed within certain specified times, would release this company from such obligations. It might at first be thought, from the imposition of the specified ebliptions and the contract with Messrs. Peto and Betts, that this company had sufileient funds for the purposes of their railway—bat was that so ? The contract by Messrs. Peto and Betts was only this : that if the company chose to all upon them to make the railway for the company, then, upon terms to be mutually agreed upon between the contracting parties, Messrs. Pete and Betts were to do the work, and be paid by the taking of preference shares, at par price. But all that, necessarily, was subject to stipulations by Meters. Peto as to the time within which, and the price or amount for which, they could do the work required of them. This was evidently so, from the reference to Sir William Cubitt, or some other engineer, in case of a difference. The agreement by Messrs. Peto and Betts to be paid by thus preference shares at par pries, must be the snidest of arrangement, if, in the eye of the public, those shares were below par. That being so, how could it be said, the effect of that agreement was to put this company in possession of sufficient funds to complete their undertaking? His Honour thoughtthe matter really stood just where it did when the injunction was granted ; there was in reality no contract with Messrs. Peto, except so far as it might afterwards be made one ; there was in truth no positive agreement for the taking of these shares, but only that they would be taken on the determination of something net yet decided. There was, in short, no sub stantial alteration in the circumstances of the company since the injunction, either u to the time or money. Considering all the facts of the relationship between these two companise—in reference, of course, to this particular ease—his Honour would, independently of all other con siderations, require to be satisfied before he could dissolve this injenetion, that the intention of the Oxford, Worcester, end Wolverhampton Company to apply to parliament was a beak fide intention on their part, and that they really seoght the dissolution of the injunction with the view of rally completing their railway within the proper time. So far from that seeming to be the case, it appeared that the very object of this application was to enable ' them to do something they were not required to de. That, if it was not directly avowed, was so far apparent upon the face of this case, that a person must be wilfully blind not to see rt ; so much so, that the evert was, in effect, asked to dissolve this Injunction in order to enable this company, the plaintiffs in thousand mu t, not to pon with their works. They considered it was fur their advantage, in spite of their set, to have a eressfor gauge railway, and to leave the broad gauge me-_idie They thought they had aright to do that; bat Ille did not think they had any such right or option, Eli be wegild not dissolve the injunction upon any ma mow* Lien. This motion, mut, therefore, and for the owns= -- be refused, with costs. COURT OF R 3 11:111IXOS AT 11171AINIAAL AT TAXIIIIIOO O. PAOII,IOO. Mr. [Montt Wilkins, Kr.

Williams Rooky, 25, a respectable looking young man, described in the calendar as a groom, was indicted for feloniously endeavouring to extort money front William Stanley, by threats. It appeared that the prosecutor carries on the business of a butcher at Edmonton, and that he is also a collector of the Queen's taxes for that district. The prisoner was a 'sties of the same neighbourhood, and the prosecutor had known him from a child, but it seemed that he had been in the service of a nobleman, and he had lost sight of him for some time prior to the 26th of December lest, on which day be met him at Edmonton, and treated him to some liquor, sad it appeared that he afterwards invited the prisoner to go to his office, where he showed him some prints of horses, and again gave him something to drink. As he was leaving the prosecutor was very much astonished Ito bear the prisoner say that he should hear from hint legally on the following cloy, but be fore he had time to ask for any explanation the prisoner went away. A day or two afterwards he met the prisoner again as he was riding in his cart and asked him to get up, and, on their arriving at the Angel Inn, at Edmonton, where the magistrates hold their sitting., the prisoner got out and said that he wanted to see Mr. Busk, the magistrate, and, on the prosecutor asking him what he wanted to see him for, the prisoner replied that he knew I very well. No farther explanation was given at the time, bet two or three days afterwards the piosocutor having oc casion to go London by the omnibus, be found, upon his arrival in Bishopsgate-street, that the prisoner had come-by the some vehicle, and, upon his seeing him, he again inquired what he had been to the magistrate for. The pri soner at first made no answer, but just as they were about to separate, he addressed the prosecutor, and said—" Well, I this is a very serious charge. I have been to Mr. Busk, and he will prosecute me for making such charges, and I must go I out of the way to Boulogne or elsewhere, and you cannot expect me to pay the capons'. The prosecutor, who ap peared to Si a very nervous and irritable man, and who was also subject to apoplectic fits, was th rown into a state of great alarm at what the prisoner said, and he ex- I claimed that the prisoner might as well take his I life as make such a charge against him, and he palled a five pound note from his purse and eared it to the prisoner. He declined, however, to take it, sad said that be did not want money, that he could lay his band upon &thousand pounds, and that he had come up to London then to sell out some stock, in order to raise money, ash* said," to prosecute or defend the charge." The promoutor on his return home war in such a condition of mina that his friends found it necessary to interfere, and endeavour to ascertain what had occurred; and on the prisoner being applied to he made a distinct charge against the prosecutor of a character that may not be further alluded to, and at the same time said that the family of the prose cutor were rich and respectable, and that five hundred pounds would be no object to them in such a case. The prosecutor was examined to prove the above facts, and he did so in the most distinct manner, denying most positively that there was the slightest foundation for the foul charge made by the prisoner against him. At the eon elusion of his evidence ho was seised with a fit, end his con dition excited the commiseration of everyone in court. Mr. Busk, the magistrate who was sitting at the time the prisoner represented that he had made the complaint to him, negatived his statement in that respect ; but it ap peared that he had upon a former occasion made a charge of a similar kind against another person. The learned judge having summed up, the jury, without any hesitation, returned a verdict of Guilty, and they at the same time expressed their opinion that there was not the slightest foundation for the charge made by the pri soner against the prosecutor. Mr. Justice Wightmen immediately ordered the prisoner to be brought up for judgment, and alter commenting in indignant terms upon the atrocity of the crime of which he had been convicted, he sentenced him to be transported for twenty-five years. THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-ROUSE. Mr. Bohai Finch, of No. 12, Queen.street, Cheapside, appeared before the Lord Mayor upon a summons at the instance of the City Commissioners of Sewers —" That he, on the 24th day of February instant, after a certain notice, bearing date the 18th day of January last, stating that he, having made or placed against, or in front of, the house situate No. 12, Queen-street, Cheapside, a certain sign board or reflector, which the Commissioners of Sewers of the City of London consider to be as annoyance, in conse quence of the same projecting into, or being made in, or en dangering or rendering less commodious the passage along the said street, and requiring him to remove or alter the said do-board end reflector, so that it should be at least 7 feet high from the level of the pavement, and project cot more than 18 inches; also to remove the writing from the outer side thereof, so that it be used only for the pur pose of reflecting light within the said premises, within 14 days from the date thereof, had been duly given him by the said commissioners, neglected or refused, within the time aforesaid, to remove or alter the said sign-board or re flector in the manner required by the said notice, whereby he had become liable to a penalty not exceeding 51." Mr. T. Tyrrell, Solicitor to the COOIMMOiOI3, appeared in support of the complaint. Mr. Orridge, barrister, attended on behalf of the defend ant, who pleaded not guilty. Mr. Tyrrell, in opening the ease, calledt the attention of the court to the 154th section of the City Sewers Act of 1848, which enacted, " That if the Commissioners shall con sider say porch, shed, projecting window, steps, cellar door or window,or steps leading into any cellar or otherwise, lamp, lamp post, lamp iron, sign, sign post, sign iron, show board, window shutter, wall, gate, fence, or opening, or any other projection or obstruction that hereafter may be placed or made against, or in front of, any house or building, to be an annoyance in consequence o f the same projecting out, or being made in, or endangering or rendering less commo• dious the passage .along any street, it shall be lawful for them to give notice, in writing, to the owner or occupier of any such house or building to re• move such projection or obstruction," and so forth. The defendant had an inscription on the back of a reflector, which led to inconvenience and annoyance, as persons were in the habit of stopping in the street to read ft. The refusal of the defendant to remove the reflector had been reported to the commissioners, who directed appli cation to be made for a summons against him. The com missioners alone had the discretionary power of determining whether or not the reflector was a projection or obstruction, or endangered or rendered less commodious the passage along the street. Mr Daw, the chief clerk to the commission, produced the minute of the commissioners, stating that, after hearing the complaint, they had determined to call upon the defendant to remove the reflector. Mr. G. Davis, clerk to Mr. Tyrrell, proved the delivery of the notice at the defendant's house. Mr. Orridge, at very considerable length, contended that the reflector was neither an obstruction nor an annoyance, and that the commission having given permission fur its being placed in its present position, they bad no right after wards to require its removal. It mere ly had inscribed on " Removed from Ludgate-bill." Mr. Tyrrell submitted that the legislature bad confided to the commission the power of determining the question of tebetruction and annoyance, and he celled upon the Lord Mayor to act upon their decision. At the same time he was perfectly prepared to prove the fact ever again if the ma gistrate thought the adoption of that course necessary. The Lord Mayor said he did not see how the reflector could be considered either an obstruction or an annoyance to passengers, and should certainly like to hear some evidence upon this point. The further hearing of the summons was then adjourned to a future day. fbe Lord Mayor requested that the prate would acknow ledge the receipt of 101. for the poor-box, as a further do nation from the Goldsmiths' Company. GUILDHiLI.. Received for the poor-box 101., from the Goldsmiths' Company (second donation) ; 51. 21. from the foreman and workmen of the City Gas Company ; and 51. !roma lady. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. John William's was charged with having uttered a forged bill of exchange to John T. Hart. The prosecutor said that defendant came to his shop, No., 14, Princes-street, and purchased musical instruments, &c., to the amount of 141.189. 7d. He represented himself to be Mr. Bucknall, of Bridgwater, and referred to Messrs. D'Almaine, whose amounts being highly favourable, he (prosecutor) took the prisoner's acceptance at one month for the goods. When the bill was presented at the banker's, it was (mud to be a forgery. The prisoner asked the prosecutor how be could attempt to swear to his identity, as the alleged transaction took place four years ago. Was De in the habit of taking likenesses ? Prosecutor—No, but I took yours, and I can swear you are the person. I pinked you out among four or five others. There were four or five other charges against the prf sour for obtaining goods from various tradesmen by frau dulently personating respectable tradesmen in distant parts of the country. The prisoner reserved his defence, and was fully row. matted on the forgery ease. Fos Tan Foos-sox.—T. H. 6L • J.

Mr. Thomas, the owner of a main: of lame at Cam berwell, appeared to maim to a imam charging Ida with having violated the provisions of the Metropolitan Building Act by neglecting to give a proper notice to Mr. Stowe, the district yor, preparatory to his making some improvement or alteration in one of his houses. Mr. Stowe said that he accidentally saw, in passing down Rosemary Besach-lane, Camberwell, some works going on at the beck of one of Mr. Thontu's houses, and found that he had been building a water-closet off the landing on the Stet floor without giving him, as the district surveyor, the slightest notice of his intention or of the erection itself. Mr. Stowe thin read a lengthened clause in the Metropo litan Building Act, by which be said he was entitled to a single tee of 11. 6s. as the district surveyor. The act also authorised his worship, by way of punishment to the parties neglecting to serve the proper notices, to award treble fees namely, Si 155., and costs ; and he (Mr. Stowe) trusted his worship would give him the treble fees as a warning to others. Mr. Elliott for some time doubted whether Mr. Stowe bad established that the building, improvement, or what- ever it might be called, came under the provisions of the act of parliament. so u to entitle him to charge any he His worship remarkeethat the whole act was drawn up in so extraordinary a manner that it wu most difficult indeed to understand it. Mr. Thomas said that it was not his wish to deprive the district surveyor of that which was his right, and declared that the first intimatiou he had of the tee was the summons of his wo:ship. What with Commissioners of Sewers and district surveyors, and the fees and interference of both, he did not kuow what the owners of houses should do by and bye. Mr. Elliott, after much searching, at length found out a clause which he thought entitled him to order Mr. Stows his fee, but he only ordered him a single one of 11. di., and expense/. THAMES.

A public meeting, convened by the committee of the Birmingham Auxiliary to the United Kingdom Alliance for the Legislative Suppression of the Traffic in all lutoxi catirg Drinks, and the admission to which was by ticket, was held in the Town-hall, Birmingham, on Tuesday even ing, when a deputation from the general council attended to explain the principles and objects of the Alliance. There was a very large attendance, the hall being densely crowded in every part by about S,OOO persons. M. I). Ball, EN., the Recorder, occupied the chair. There were also present Messrs. R. T. Cadbury, Joseph Sturge, B. Cedbury, J. Cad bury, A. Bird, W. Morgan, J. Johnson, J. Barrett, J. R. Bayee, Rev. W. Landells, and many other friends of the tem perance movement. The Rev. J. Bardeley, of Manchester, Mr. J. Simpson, of Manchester, and Mr. S. Pope, attended as a deputation. The rising of the chairman was the signal for a general tumult, and be was scarcely able to give utterance to half-a-dozen words without interruption. A resolution affirming that vice and drunkenness exist in proportion to the number of public houses and the facilities for obtaining intoxicating drinks, and that the only effectual remedy for those evils would be found in the suppression of those fatal facilities, was moved by Mr. R. T.Cadbury with out comment.—Mr. J. Simpson seconded the resolution.— Mr. Bunton, who addressed the meeting from the side gallery, moved au amendment, " That this meeting views with indignation the continued attempts that are being made by the friends of extreme temperance to curtail the rights, liberties, and comforts of the middle and working classes, and believes that the hest and surest mode of ele vating the people is by giving them a sound and practical education."—The amendment was seconded by Mr. Watson, who addressed the meeting from the side gallery.— The chairman rose to put the propositions to the meeting, and stated his intention to put the ori ginal proposition first, which excited much ditsatis faction among the audience who heard his statement.—On the motion being put, a large livaber of hands were held up for it, as also tot the amenchnefft, which was afterwards put. —The Chairman, in announcing his decision, said be was' clearly of opinion that the original proposition was carried. —The announc.ment was received with cheering, groans, hisses, and other discordant noises. In fact, throughout the , w hole proceedings the hall presented a scene of tumult (ap proaching to something of a more serious character) which it would be impossible to describe ; certainly the like has not been witnessed in it for years. Not a single speaker was heard, and, but for the attendance of a strong body of police, riot might have ensued. Msny of the windows of the hall were broker), and several fights took place. Several of the disturbers were taken into custody and brought before the magistrates yesterday. MARKETS. COTTON.—Livaarooi, V. 28.—The market closed heavily, with. out any mar►ed decline in prices.

CITY COMMISSION OF SEWERS.—Yesterday a court was held for the despatch of public business ; Mr. Deputy Peacock occupied the chair. A communication was read from the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, stating that the French government were desirous of having exhibited, at the approaching international exhibi tion, plans or models illustrating the sanitary works of our large cities, and requesting the chief clerk to bring the subject before the cemmissioners, with a view to obtain their opinion as to whether they would be willing to ex hibit a selection of such works as might illustrate the metro politan sewerage. The Engineer said it would take two months to get up plans, &c., of the huger sewers, because they must be done handsomely. The expense would be some hundreds, and three or four persons must be engaged to assist. Deputy Aitcheson —And what advantage should we derive from it? The Engineer—lt would be no ad vantage to us, but it would be to Paris end other large towns. Deputy Bower said it would be a benefit to humanity to send to the exhibition whatever they could in connexion with the subject, as it was said there was a' great deficiency of sewerage in Paris and the large towns of France. Atter some further discussion, the Engineer was directed to ascertain what the Metropolitan Commis 'loners were doing in the matter and to report thereon.
