It was peculiarly unadvisable that any Audit bill should ibis session originate in the Lords. For last melon they sent down to the Commons a measure so very objectionable in principle, and so unworkable in details, that the lower house pocked it off forth with to Lim 4o. As, then, the House of Lords had, in 1849, given the House of Commons a specimen of its legislation on this subject which was at once re jected by o.e p)pular branch cf the legislative, it would rely have been proper and respectful for the Upper Howe to tare, in 1880, allowed the Lower House to have como.enced legislation on a subject in which their constituents are so peculiarly interested, and in which the peerage of the country has little or no concern. No oae called on the Lords to inter fere aratn in the matter: every one was waiting for a bill t be ittrodund into the Gammons : when Lord GRANVILLF., urged on by the Railway Commissioners, took the country by surprise. Lord GameviLLE's bill is, however, so destructive of the rights of shareholders, that if they will - only exert themselves on their own behalf, it cannot be come law. At present, the theory of the law gives considerable powers respecting audits to shareholders. Time, for instance, shareholders elect the auditors; auditors mast be shareholders ; shareholders have powers to appoint committees of investigation ; share holders decide on the rate of dividend. True it is, that nirectorial prectice has, on many points, neutral ised these powers of shareholders. And what was wanted was that those powers should be enlarged and extended ; that the privileges of shareholders, in the inanageme . .t of their concerns, should be more direct, more immediate, more comprehensive ; that shwa:- holders should have the means of really, not merely of nominally, managing their own affairs; and that the duties of directors should be strictly executive, and be exercised under the vigilant superintendence and active control of the sharehol d ers. . . Now, so far from Lord Ofuoivtuo's bill aiming at an extension of the righ's of shareholders, it utterly destroys all the powers of audit which they now pos sess; it denies their competency to audit their own accounts; it deprives them of the opportunity of audit; and it transfers the means of shareholders' superintendence and control to a public board, which, when once chosen indirectly by shareholders, will really be part and pared of the Board of Trade. Bach a bill is an insult to the intelligence of every railway company in the kingdom. And this new audit board is to be maintained by railway companies at a coat of 10,0001. a year. Here Is a field for jobbery' Why, for 10,0001. • year the accoamts of an empire might be audited. Yet are railway companies to be inflicted with this heavy charge, though each company is willing and desirous of auditing its own accounts, and can do so at a 03,•• parativey trifling expeesa. Assessed es this heavy charge has to be on the capital of each company, it will amount to a most unjust, because a most unequal tax ; for the company whose affairs are in a state of disorder wia, under such an assesiment, have them investigated at the expense of companies whose to counts need bat a few hours' verification. The practical effect of this coasigning the audit of all railway companies to one general board will be to, amen sot an tfficieut, but an inefficient audit. For Lord Guarnu.s has overlooked the important fact, that all railway compania require nearly simultaneous audits of their accounts. Audits are indispensable preliminaries of general meetings ; and general meet ings are holden hall-yearly in the months of February and August in each year. Railway accounts must therefore, be riditsd in Janney and July. Now by what powers of work does Lord GRANVILLE propose that his three commissioners shall not only audit the accounts of all the railway companies in tie king dom in those two month., but also pupae their special reports on those accounts? The thing is quite impossible : it cannot be done if the audit has in each ease to be efficient. With multi a board this mast be the alternative: either the accounts will avowedly be imperfectly audited, or delusive reports will be issued by the proposed Board of Audits. On the - grounds, then, that this bill is based OR a principle the very reverse of what is the truth--the principle being that shareholders are incompetent to manage, in every respect, their own affairs, whereas they are mod competent to do so—that it will de price shareholders of even the very insufficient powers they already poetess ; and that it will erect a system which will rather delude than protect shareholders by its results--on these grounds, the delegates of share holders have, we think, come to a sound conclusion in their resolution togive to Lord ORAN VILLE'S billevery opposition in their power, and to introduce a measure of their own. What that measure is, and whether it is likely to be a sufficient substitute for the attempted inter ference of the Board of Trade, mu•, however, be reserved for future examination. Meanwhile the House of Lords may do what it pleuse ea the sub lest. For it is in the Commons that the question mast be settled, INTERVIEW WITH LORD JOHN RUSSELL. Yesterday, a numerous deputation, teouspo•ed of factory rowers and operatives, had an interview with Lord John Russell. at his afield residence, In D mining-street. Sr G-orse Grey was also present.

Pitt, Wardlaw, Key, Hargreaves, Uasworth, Balms, and Bottoodey. Lord JOHN MANNERS headed the deputation, and ob served, that then were newest • considerable number e/ IWellkemln from 410 riTiv."!! towns of L tnan • Aire and V Akshire, accompanied by many of their employ er+, who cams to inform the government of the go od e ff ects produced by the Tea Hours Bill, where it had been feisty tried, and of the uaiversal wish of the operatives dug it should be made effective. Mr. WILLIAM RAND, a large manufacturer of Brad ford, said, that in Yorkshire they were not troubled with the shift system, they had obeyed the law honestly as it wee intended '4 the legislature, and he was glad to say that the most benedelal results followed to both masters and mat. la some parts of Lancashire a systess of working by shift Mil been adopted, and the object of the deputation was to In pries upon the government the importance of making the lime of working uniform for all parties. Mr. WILLIAM WALKER, of Bradford, the largest worsted spinner in Yorkshire, employing nearly 3,000 bands, bore testimony to the benefits warn the wotkpeople had derived from the Tea Hours Act, and declared, as a menu lecturer. he would never consent to any extension of the time. So far from the operation of the Act having crippled or injured trade, there emoted at the present time a wash &rob!, desire to extend the powers of production, and he never knew a period when there were so many mills and warehouses building, which proved that there were a mate outlay of capital for a legitimate working of the Ten Hours' An. Dr. BURNETT (Vicar of Bradford) sail that he spoke from his experience as a clergyman when be said that it was almost impossible to calculate the improvement that had been worked amongst the people in a moral and religious point of view ; end he believed he was expressing the send men e of the whole of the clergy and ministers of the district in stating that it would be a matter of the deepest regret to them if any alteration mu made which would entail longer hours upon the factory workers. Mr. SAMUEL FIELDEN said, that in the district with which he was counected a material improveuent had taken place amongst the factory workers, whilst the wages were sot reduced in anything likektioe proportion of the reduction of time. Li his own works the reduction of produce was not more than one sixteenth upon 10 as compared with 12 hour, and he was satisfied that in a year or two as much work would be done of the same machines in ten hours as ever was done in twelve. Tel. would be effected partly by increased speed, and partly by the increased vigor of the workpeople. Mr. W. J. FOX said, that in the borough of Oldham, which he represented, there were about 130 muter manu facturers, of whom more than 100 gave him their support at the last election, knowing that if the question was again raised, he would vote for it, end although it had recently been brought before their notice, not one of them had yet complained of the cone he had and was likely to adopt in support of this measure. Mr. THOMAS FIELDEN said that ten hours was easagh for any one to work, and more than the masters could work at the present time with advantage. Many of them were working four days a week. Mr. JOHN MILLS, a working man, said he felt serenely the advantages which had resulted to the operative' gene- Idly, and especially to his own family. He had ten chil d:noon= of whom worked in the mill—three girls and four boys. It was his misfortune to have one girl working by " shifts," and there was a marked difference between her progress and that of the other two since the Ten Hours Bill came into operation. The two that were working ten hours had learned to read and write ; tiny could now make their own clothes, and learn mazy domestic duties they never knew before, whilst the one th:t was working by shifts hod made no regress ; in fact, he thought it cruel to ask her to aunt to those molten after she had been thirteen burrs in and about the mill. Mr. MUNI Z said he could not understand why there should be any more trouble about the matter, for it was qui.* clear parliament intended tea hours, without the abominable system of working by shifts now complained of. Mr. AGLIONBY said he bad been a aupporta of the Ten Hours Bill ter =say year.. lie had watcted the debates and taken part in them, and it was notorious that when the bill was passed it was i ntended to be a ten hours bill end t of a fifteen hors bill, as it now resulted, and therefore he could sot see what objection their could be to correct a mistake, which every body believed to be a mistake. He thought the government and the parliament were bound to correct the error. Mr. GRANT said that there were present working men from most of the large towns is Lsneashite and Yorkshire who knew the determination of the penile, and that being IP, it was only fair to inform the government that nothing short of an effective ten bean bill would ever satisfy them, sad that they would continue to agitate until they ob. Mined it. Mr. J. WOOD said that be could never consent to larger time, and believed that opinion was becoming very general amount mill-owners Lord HARRO WBY said that ha had always supported the bill because he thought it would benefit the man and not injure the master, and so kr that had been proved. They bad bad, but a very short trial of it, but it was an extraordinary one. Several other members of the deputation spoke to the good effects of the working of the act when fairly tried, and the noble lord listened to all the statements with attention, and thanked them for the information conveyed. His lord ship politely bored end the deputation withdrew. The interview lasted for upwards of an hour. THE FACTORY QUESTION. COURT OF ALDERMEN. ST. THOMAS'S HOSPITAL. Yesterday, at a court held for the despatch of business, The CHAMBERLAIN informed the court that be had received a letter from one of the officials of Sc. Thomas's Hospital, requiring that the hos2.tal seal should, without delay, be affixed to a document presented 'y that institution. Application had been made at the last Court of Common Council on the same subject, it being in the power of either court of the coronation to perform the ministerial act of affixing the seal ; bat the Common Council referred the sub. jut is &committee, which is at 'resent engaged in investi- gating its merits. After some observations from several meenn of the court, to the affect that there was no intention upon the part of the Court of Common Council to cause any unnecessary delay, the question was postponed until the latter shall have again assembled; and the implosion appeared to be that the report of the committee would be favourable to the object of the governors of the hospital. The RECORDER had advised the Court of Common Council, on the application of the governors of the hospital, to pursue the thane they had adopted, and the Court of Aldermen as reality acted upon his suggestion, although the letter which had been transmitted to the chamberlain eon• &tined a threat of mandamus if any hesitation should take plans on the pint of affixing the seal. DUBLIN, MAIICE 12. The authorities seem to be taking timely precau tion to prevent anything like a renewal of the Dolly's Brae affair on St. Patrick's Day. Strong detachments of military and constabulary are being Pent to those parts of Ulster where there is reason to apprehend the Ribbon party may be disposed to celebrate the feast of the patron saint. Some companies of the let Royals, and a portion of the Eaniskilling Dragoons left hers yesterday for the north. The Dosonpedrick Recorder contains the following : Tree SZVENTBRIVIII or Moacn.—We regret to learn detenni that the gibbons's, is some quarters, are to march on Patrick's day. At Kiloton, within a mile of Crawgar, we understand it is Intended to hold a meeting of that character. After the lamentable and fatal occurrences at Crougar and Dolly's Brae, we know of nothing more wanton and ill-advised than to attempt the repetition of such exasperating assemblies. We hope that the government will seed stipendiary magistrates who may arrest the leaden, disperse the meeting at once, and, by the firm end reeolete bearing assumed at lint, deter others in future from attempt ingaTsimilar proesssioas. Down maims wore opened on Saturday ; and Mr. Justice Cramptoa, who presided in the County Court, delivered an elaborate charge to the grand jury on the subject of illegal processions and assem blies. The learned judge oonaluded in these words : I feel happy at being able to congratulate you on the new Presessions Act, which will soon become the law of the land, gad which I trust will put an end to all processions. If it wee right on my part or yours to criticise the acts of the legislature, I would my that a great mistake was made In allowing the old act to expire; sad you will agree with me in thinking it wise that the legislature now contemplates its renewal. Bills of indictment are to be sent before this grand jury, by the Crown Solicitor, against some of the parties concerned in the D.Aly's Brae proceedings. MUSIC. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. Last eveliiiiiwast:l;beginUingOltle;Pera season and we do not remember ever to have seen her Ma: July's Theatre prevent so brilliant an appearance on an opening night. The house was completely fall in every part, boxes, occu by numbers of the most stale, it , i d t c , m and gallery : and the " grancl . tier" was distingtuahed people in g o f as hi ona ble an assemblage has seldom been seen at this early period d the moon. The opera was " Medea," produced for the appear ance of Mademoiselle Parodi in the principal &me ter. It was the great part of Parodi's friend and in structress, Madame Puts, who produced an effect in it wtieh is still freshly remembered by the older I hubifiris of the opera. " Medea" is one of the beet works of Mayer, a composer who had great celebrity throughout Europe 4 at the end of the last and the beginning of the pre sent century, bat whose fame, like that of all the other Italian masters of his day, was eclipsed by the overpowering radiance of the star of Rossini. A German by birth and early education, and an Italian by residence during the greatest part of his life, Mayer blended the wheels of the two countries with the skill of a consummate artist, though certainly not with the genius of a Mozart on the one hand, or a Cimarosa on the other. His works, however, abound it ~ racefel. swret. and exne , --' • • ' sue, In caneerted • pieces full of solid and masterly harmony, and in orchestral effect", rich without being noisy, which the Italian composers of the present day are incapable of producing. But in the present " brazen age" of music, the quiet i instrumentation of the old school is esufficieet to stimulate ears indurated by loudness of sound, and Mayer's accompaniments are found wanting in strength and brilliancy. Maclemolselle Parudi exhibited tragic powers of a high order. Her aspect was noble and majestic, giving an idea of grandeur and power, and her move ments and attitudes had the classical and statuesque grace for which Pasta used to be distinguished; and, in the concluding scenes, the frantic fuiy of "a woman scorned " was expressed with great truth and force. Asa singer she has made great progress since last season. She has acquired a more thorough command of her voice; it has become more flexible and even, through the whole extent of its compass; and her intonation, which last year was uncertain, now seems unimpeachable. She has gained, too, a facility, smoothness, and nicety of execution, and a musicaan like skill in rounding and finishing her vocal phrases, which show how well she has been em ployed in the study and practice of her art. In several passages of the opera, especially the great scene with the children, she produced a most power ful effect, and received the most enthusiastic ap piers-. Calzolari, who performed the part of Egens, had no room for the display of dramatic power, but he sang admirably. He strengthened the weekums of his pert by introducing a brilliant air of Donizetti's, which sounded very odd in the midst of' music eo very different in style, but its execution well deserved the loud plaudits which it received. Sign , r Michelli appeared to disadvantage in the Fart of Jason : his stature was too small and his v oice too weak. He sang, however, like a musician, and his voice blended well with the others in the concerted piece. Madame Giuliani did all that was necessary for the part of Creusa. The choruses were good, and the elegant accompaniments were beautifully played by the or chestra. There were some fresh and pretty scenery, and the costumes and decorations were in excellent L taste. _ _ After the opera, " God save the Qneen " was per formed by the whole strength of the theatre. The company, standing op in the boxes, had a brilliant app trance. There was a new ballet called Lrs Metamorphoses, a brilliant and successful affair. Its story, even with the help of the libretto, was beyond our comprehen sion; bat the peerless Carlotta Gt isi appeared is it, and that was quite encu,-,h. Ste appared, too, in the most piquant way possible ; for sho enacted the part of an elf, or sprite, who, in order to perplex a student of the " black art," appeared to him in a variety of fautastical shapes—a , young page, a village wirl, a will-o'-the-wisp, and a ' inlitary officer ; and in these various disguises she displayed her witcheries, in her own inimitable way. Paul Taglioni danced admirably in tte character of the studen', and a number of pretty groups were formed by the eve/Ls-tie-Judd. SPORTING. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 13, 1850.

Thu Muter of the ItoUs gave judgment on the motion for extending the injunction which had been pentad txparte in this cue, to rea•rain the defendant, who belonged to an awonation called the An•i-Sokc Anociatien, from selling Hour at Wakefield which hats not been ground at the mills of the plaintiff. It appeared that the plaintiff was the owner of certain mills at Wakefield, at which, under letters patent, granted by James 1., he claimed the privilege to 'nod all the flour whi.b was sold or used in the parish of Wakefield. The right or custom claimed b 7 the plaintiff had frequently been the subject of litigation an the Duchy Court of Lancaster and elsewhere, and the plaintiff had hitherto succeeded in maintaining his claim. The existence, however, of the custom being considered by the defendants not to extend to the preventing the sale and consumption of fixes. imported into the town irom other pleas, they had lately commenced the sale of flier co imported and not ground at the plaintiff's mills. And the plaintiff obtained an tx-parto injunction to restrain them from so doing, on the ground that it was an infringement of hie rights. It appeared that the mills wen originally watarraijs, and that the plaintiff now worked them by steam, and it was, amongst other things, alleged against the plaintiff's claim, that the custom, or soke, applied only to water-mills, and not to steam-mills. The Master of the It thought that, having regard to the previous suits in which the plaintiff had succeeded in sus- Wolof/Abe custom, he ought to grant the injunction. But, at the same time, he was of opinion that the circumstances of the ease were such that he ought to call upon the plaintiff to establish his right at law. He expressly declined to give any opinion as to the validity or invalidity of the custom. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—Yesnsma, Snow: Xa. COlllll/610X111 YOXIISAMILK. In RN C. J. CARTTLA.

NORFOLK CIRCUIAnsassoRT, /Inca 12. list Mejtsty's commission for Backs was opened yester day evening by the Lord Chief Baron Pollock and Mr. Justice Winetenan. The meg swans of the county have again triad the experiment of holding an intermediate ste nos, for the purpose of clearing the gaol of minor ones previous to the anise. The calendar, therefore, is bat a light one, and the plan has bad the effect of les sening the county expenses considerably. The soli tary system of imprisonment has now been tried in this county for two yens, and is carried out with great minatitc in the new and splendid erectiin of which the rate , papers complain so much. It is now found that crime is very much on the decrease, if the comparative numbers under imprisonment be a criterion, and ttis result is traced to the new system of imprisonment. The peasantry, how ever, never had less occasion to complain of want of employ ment, and a careful obs.rver of events would unquestionably attribute ouch a state of things more to free trade than any other cause.. . . . . . . The calendar, besides being a small one, !salsa remarkable for the absence of crimes of the higher description. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—Yoax, Meacn 11. CROWS COY/T.—Baron Mi. BASON ROLM. CHARGE or ARSON. - Robert Jordan, 17, was charged with having, on the 11th of January last, at Swine, set fire to a barn and a stack of wheat, the property of John Mumn. The prosecutor is a small farmer, in Holilcmese, and re sides at a lore house about • mile from Seine. Thee prisoner was his farm servant. The case against the prisoner was purely of • eircusstantial nature. It wee proved that a feu. night before the axe the prosecutor bad a quarrel wilt the priouner, and from that time the prisoner was sullen sod slogged in his demeanour. When the week of elsinruction was going on the prisoner refused to render any assistance, and stood laughing with his hands in his picket, looking at the progress of the flames. Ile was overheard to say, in con. venation with his mother and grandfather, that when that fire was at an end, they would very shertly hear of another upon the same funs. About a fortnight before the fire occurred the prism*? asked the prosecutor's screaut girl if she would accompany him to set fire to the wheat stick. She replied in the negative, when the prisoner remuked that he was tired of his place, and was determined to set something on fire before he left the prosecutor's is rvice. On his appre hension the prisoner put • letter into the hand of the servant girl to the effect that she was to say nothing of the conversa tion they had had together rupee:log the firing of the wheat stack. Mr. Price, in defonoe, submitted that the cue against the prisoner was merely one of suspicion. As the guilt of the prisoner was involved in each a variety of doubts it would be unsafe to convict him. Numerous witnesses were called as to the excellmt charac ter of the prisoner.—Not Guiqy. Ntol Puns. —Bl7o/11 Ms. MOWS ALISH2ON. lilltlllB T. ATKISSON. Mr. Martin stated the ease. He appeared for the plait tiff, who complained of an infringement by the defendant' of his right in the manufacture of certain pine, which had inflicted upon him considerable injury in a pecuniary point of view, About forty-five years ago, Mr. Toni, a chemist and dewed 's' at Doncaster, was in tne habit of preparing • mily ti:l, which he sold about that neighbourhood, a here they were much esteemed. Sohn qii•ntly they obtained • grist sale in Yorkshire generally, and were vended by ageats in various towns. The pi ople of YolkehTe were possessed of many estimable qualides no .IJubt, but from the number of pills advertised— Mr. Baron Aldenia-1 should have thought Harrogate would have done fur them. (Laughter.) Mr. Martin went on to say that Mr. TOR sold this medi cine, which was called " Ton's Family Pills." Oa hi, death hie aun,Mr. R. Tort succeeded him, and when he died, in 1547, he gave the recipe to his sister, Miss Islas Torr, who was, about to be married to the present plaintiff, Mr. Kirkus, a chemist and druggist, carrying on business at Liverpcol. Mr. Kirkus,afterthe marriage,having commenced the manu facture of these pills, wished to have some agents in York shire, and he appiied to the present defendant, Mr. Atkin son, a chemist and druggist at Doncaster. Mr. Atkinson arxepted the agency, and some time alter MCS , R. Brooke, of Diectster. were sl'o appointed agents, whereupon Mr. Atkinson commenced muinfutnring himself and selling medicine under the name of " Ton's Pi 11.," alleg ing that he had obtained the recipe from a per son named Shepherd, who bad been in the employ of Mr. Torr. This, however, he (the learned counsel) said was a mere pretence; for this person named Shepherd was ap prentice to Mr. Torr only 31 )ears sgo, wk Mr. Ton was selling these pills more than 40 years ago, and the plaintiff therefore had brought this action to put a stop to the infringement upon his exclusive right. The learned counsel, amidst roars of laughter, proceeded to enumerate the wonderful properties and performances of Torr's pills, summing up with the expulsion of a six-yard tape worm. Mr. Baron Alderson—lied tape 1 (Laughter.) Mr. Martin alto referred to a wonderful cure of water scurry at Ponntract, which borough the learned counsel ob. served he had the honour to represent in parliament. Mr. Martin said something more of the excellent qualities of the pills, and concluded his opening speech by recommend. ing his learned friend on the other side to take one. Mr. Baron Alderson—Perhaps the best way of deciding that part of the question will be for six of the jury to tike half a-dcsen of toe plaintiff's pine, and the other six half-a &nen of the defendant's, and we shall see which six go out fest. (Laughter.) The examination of plaintiff's witnesses having been gone into, the wonderful Pontefract cue was again brought under notice, when Mr. Watson euggested that that case must have occurred sin ethelastcontestedelectionforthatborough. (Laughter.) Mr. Martin—Oh, no; I have no doubt the gentleman was a very gond toter. Mr. Watson—l'm afraid his being feasted too much at the election was the cause of his requiring the pills. (Laughter.) Mr. Baron Alderson, examining the wrapper on one of the boxes, said he observed there war an advantage la taking three boxes at a time. (Laughter.) As plaintiff's case proceeded, there was a good deal more merriment excited. Atka close, Mr. Watson rose to address the jury for the defendant, contending that neither he nor the plaintiff had any pro perty in Ton's and that therefore Mr. Atkinson bad a perfect right to manufacture and sell them as he bad done, not u Kirkus's Torr's pills, but as Atkioson's Ton's pills. And this was really the whole question. lie had, therefore, , no occasion te dispute the valuable properties of these two or three of which he had no doubt would be very useful among some of Mr. Martia'a constituency at ,Pontefract en the morning after the election. (Laughter.) Mr. Baron Alderson—Perhaps they would cure nausea if they were at all sick of their member. (Laughter.) Mr. Watson-1 am quite sure, my lord, the people of Pontefract, however weigtied down, would never take these pills for that purpose. (Renewed laughter.) Mr. Baron Alderson, in summing up, told the jury the Tiernan for their consideration was whether or not the defendant had been selling these pills se and for the pills of Mr. Torr, manufactured by Mr. Kirkin, making people be lieve, and intending them to believe that they were taking Kirkus's pills, when, in reality, they were taking Atkinson's pill'. The jury found their verdict for the defendant. From as LONDON GAZETTE. —Tuesday, March 12. DANKKU . P:IB.
