Mr. IL JAMES moved a verbal amendment, in order to Wirt toe question as to the appointemot of two analysts for each district, to be paid out of toe rates by the vestries. Tnis wee extremely objectionable. The analysts would give their certificates ex parte. A poor man who bought 31. worth of ginger would have to pay 2.. 61. for a certifier., end, moreover, the tradesman would be thereupon subject to a penary. Be,ides, the bill was mersly optional with the borough or town to appoint analysis. Let offences be punished, but let them be punished in a legal and proper manger. Let there he proper evidence, and upon that evidemes, bat sot etlarwlee, let the magistrates convict. Mr. CLI VE said analysis would be the 0:1111111h Truce of this epoxies of legislation. Why shout not the tradesman have ea analyst of hie own? And, agate. It might be said, the magatrate might call in one. God help las magistrates who had to decide upon such conflicting evidence. Dlr. LOCKE did sot thiak that clause 2 was open to Qs vanona otitctiwas cited against it by the learned gentleman the saunter for Itaryleboas. Analysts were not forced upon districts which did sot care about eating or driaking nasty, anwholeeome food. There ought to be some competent per sea who would rive en opinion upon the quality of food. • Mr. SCUOLEFIELD said the clauses to question were not Maenad la the hill without the fullest COS•idifllti4l2, oad, indeed, were placed there by toe authority of the coaninuee. Lord FERMOY leered this bill would lead to mach vexa tious procesoiogs. Clams. 2 and 3 ought to his opinion, to be omitted. If public whets were lo ud: to be desirable they could be afterwards appointed. Mr. MONSELL said that was all very well, bat within& petite semipro the pier weld mot be protected. Yr.

PEACOCK was not in favour of the appointment at analysts in the manner prorated, as public inspectors wan not to bs appointed. He did not see how the clause, as they etc d, could be any protection to the poor man. The amendment was than put, the precise nature of It being that all the words after the wurd borough" be omitted in the 3rd clime, but raising the question, in reality, whether the 3 , ,1 and 4in clause' be omitted from the bill, these clauses inanity rehiring to the appointment of public analysts.

He oh served that, although he met them with feelings of disap pane:wet and mortification, he wee certainly not diacouraged by the present aspect of affairs, bemuse their object woe now within their reach If they had only the energy to veep it. (Hear, hear ,) lie regretted that they had lost Own the airecuon the services of Mr. W. Brown, of Liverpool, who bad retired solely in consequence of hie advanced age. Mr. Dsignth bad raw retired from the board, but, as in the case of Mr. Brown, not on account of any diffidence or chaos's' in the concern, but became of the demand which his duties to hie constituents made upon his time. He quite admitted that the balance-sheet was not satistaotory, nor woe it pos sible, snider the circumstances, that it could be so ; still , be believed that an undue and groundless timidity sloes amid render it necessary to wind up the undertaking. Unfavour able as was the balance-chest, it would have been much more so if many of the creditors had not generously consented to forego claims in consideration of whet they had received and what was due to so grand an enterprise. Notwithstanding that the directors had been mach crippled for want of feeds, since the last meeting they had not been idle. Tory bed endeavoured to keep up the interest of the public, shareholders and others in the s e hem. at Liverpool, at Kee cheater, et Glasgow, a nd elsewhere, and althougit the in fluence of etntinental dieturbances and other causes had/in vented investments to the amount required—half • they had been enabled to mime by subscription 72,0101. He was informed Ly the Chancellor of the Exobequer in the course of the autumn that the government were not pre pared to enter into further guarantees for picket service or telegraphic purposes without the sanction of parliamemt—nor could they expect any more favourable answer from the Treneary until the committee of the House of Commons bad made their report. Toot report, considering how wide the inquiry encoded, could scarcely be looked for during the present session, but the Chancellor of the Exthaquer had stated that an Inquiry into t h e subject of often telegraph was to be instituted by the Board of Trade in connexion with a committee of acientillo gentlemen, and upon its being re presented that this company were not prepared to accede to the suggestion to defray half the expense, the government had with the greatest liberality consented to give them the full benefit of the investigatiocewithout any cost whatever to the concern. The experiments made showed that India rubber was better en an insulator than guts perch.; but since then gotta perch" had been manufactured of a moth more valuable quality for telegraphic pur poses, and the Beard of Trade lovestmation had upon this therefore, ea well •• upon other scientific points, bean attended with important results. It had also been shown to the scientific committee that the pressure of the ocean rather strengthened than destroyed the insulatiost ci the cable. He hoped that the shareholders would approved the course takes by the director', of awing ia the inves tigation, and exposing their own errors, (errors inseparable from an expenment of such novelty and magaitude) and I their present pandits to that tribunal. The report would be received before Eimer, and he believed that it would be bead very valuable in siding them to mew their pest eater pro with every hoped InCersi. They derived further se- couragement to renew their efforts for 'Ls establishassat of telegraphic communication between Blighted and America, from the sitcoms of the submarine cable between Alexandria and Calcutta, and other ocean cables, la none of which except in the Mediterrarean bad then been say remark- I able failure. With respect to the recovery of the old cable, 1 the enpw l mests which Captain Kell had mode at the New • buudMnd sod had bean beyond expectation successful, end thud gentlemen had recommended that the future landing station should be at a point further down Trinity Bay, by which. smooth bottom would be wound, and a saving of fifty miles of cable be effected—his opudoe being that in a great measure the destruction of the present cable was owie to the rocky boetem at the point of lending. Capt a in Kellg likewise recommended that further experiment. should be mad*, the coat of which was estimated at 1,8001. If it should be toned that the faults were too tar out from Wed to justify further operations, the expenditure would sot be entirely lost. as it would be in part covered by the sale of the recovered cable. Experiments had also been made at the Valencia end, and there bang a Ana( peemungeloa that there was no fault far out at sea, the deep sea portion might be still made avails'''. for ceseeying etearges. The whole expense of tee experimenth et this sod would be 6,0001. or 6,0001. at the utmost, and es the legs et the ships from which the cable was load showed that for 180 miles a great deal of slack bail been paid out, knight be quite expected that it they should have nothing left but to sell the raised cable, such sale would quite cover the ex pense of the expedition. The directors proposed now to raise the 20,0001. required to resuscitate the property, from among the old shareholders, and no doubt if they could make the cable speak, ocinfidenes would be restored in the ultimate prospects of the company, end the value of the shares would rise considerably in tee market. There wee one advantage is their very poverty—for it discouraged attempts to carry telegraphic communication Darin the Atlantic by other routee. But the inquiries anode by the committee proved conclusively that the route this company had adopted was the only one that could be satisfactorily followed. The route by Rock Hale, the Faro Islands, Greenland, or Labrador, would be most unedvissble on amount of the danger of de struction from ice ; and although he did not wish to academe all northern lines, he could nut believe that the wheats for going by Lisbon across the Axons to Newfoundland would be practicable, on account of the Azores being a volcanic district, subject to subterranean earthquakes, and the chance of the cable being picked up by fiebbg boats. He hoped that the proprietors would be willing to take up the required 20,0001. in 20!. aharee as proposed by the directors. There would be little or no risk, as those who contributed would be entitled to share in the proceeds of the mkt of the cable, and in cam of success, they would receive their shares and be credited es being fully paid up la the books of the com pany without further payment 100 per cent. is addition t 3 the amount invested, bolds@ the additional value which would thus accrue to their other property in the company. The value of irapid communication with Amnia in • com mercial point of view was evident from the tact that our exports to that country amounted to 27 per cent open the whole exports of this kingdom, while politically Its impor tance in the preservation of peace In disturbed times could not be overrated.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-FIB. 29. APPSALS. 1/100 O.O.OOIPATI. This was an appal from the Miter of the Rolle. The ease, which involves a very curious and interesting point, was argued on the 6th sad 7th instant, and judgment poste loomed. The foots were miaow, : The Mutton in Miscue, Mr. John sad Mrs. Mary A na U n d erwoo d, were husband and wife, Mr.. Underwood was pousesed of • life Interest under the will of her father in certain property, which was to descend to her children after her death. In ease of her bay. Mg no issue she had a power of appointment by will, and in default of her exercidng such power the property mete go to other persons, among whom were the respondents. Mn, 'Un derwood unclad her power of appointment, and by her will devised all her real and personal estate to her huabend, his heirs, endemism' (subject to the estates of her three children therein), and in case be should die in her lifetime, to a Mr. William Wing, the present appellant. Mr. John Under wood, by his will, bequeathed all his real and par sons! property to his wife for life, sad then to his children; and in case they and his wife should die in his lifetime he ' gave all the property to Mr. Wing, the appellant. Oa the 12th of October, 1853, Mr. and: Mrs. Underwood sad their children embarked for Australia. Oa the 19th of that month the vessel was wrecked off Ileachy Head, and the whole family were drowned. The appellant then instituted a suit in Chancery, and claimed to be entitled to the real property under the wills of Mr. and Mrs. Underwood. The respondents, as the heirs-at-law, contended that Mrs. Underwood's will did not, la the events which happened, operate as en appointment, postunt to the power reserved t. her by her father's will. The question resolved fluid Into one of evidence an to the period of Mr. John Underwood's death. If he died M the lifetime of hie wife the appellant would take under the direct terms of Mrs. Underwood's will; if be survived his wife th e eppdhat would take under his will. In endeavouring to prove the death of Mrs. Underwood before that of her husband the appellant called various witnesses to show that she wee in very delicate health, whereas her husband was a tall, power ful man, In excellent health, and a good swimmer. Several eminent medical gentlemen, in given their opinion upon the question. said that under such circumstances, supposing the whole family to have fallen in the water together, Mr. Underwood would have survived his wife and children for e considerable time. It wee proved that Mr. and Mrs. Under wood were swept off the vessels by a wave and immediately went down together. The Muter of the Rolls, before whom the case wee heard, declared that the responoute, ae heirs at.law, took the property in default of the exercise by hire. Underwood of her power of appointment. From that decision the present appeal was brought. The counsel for the appellant now contended that if Mr. Underwood survived his wife the appellant waa entitled to the estate es hie universal legatee, and if Mrs. Underwood survived her husband the appellant we, entitled to the estate as her appointee. It was further con tended that, under the facts and circumstances, it could not reasonably be supposed that the testators deed at the 01000 moment of time, and that the fair inference from the evi dence wee that Mr. Underwood survived his wife. Luny, It wee urged that, according to the true construction of Mrs. Underwood's will, the gift in favour of the appellant was intended to take of in the event of the failure of the previous gift t r her husbend. The tarpon& nte, on the other Mad, submitted that the appellant had not made out that Mr. Underwood had survived his wife, and that therefore Mrs. Underwood could not be said to have exercised her power of appointment. Their lordships now delivered their opinions; the Lord Chancellor differing from the court below; bet Lord Brougham, Lord Crsnworth, Lord Wensleydale, sod Lord Chelmsford being of a contrary opinion, and agreeing with the decree of the Muter of the Rolls, the decree of the court below was affirmed and the aimed dismissed. - EQUITY COURTS.—Fan. 29.

Mr. BaralgeW and Mr. Humphrey appeared for the plaintiff, Mr. Morrie for the defaadante.

Wes. 11411,0* 86, sod &mews Bichardson, 36, were in dicted for a robbery, with violence, upon Jones Valentine. Mr. Bushby conducted the prosecution. The prosecutor, it appeared, was a farmer, residing in the neighbourhood of Esseaden, near Hartford, and on the eves ' ing of the 26th of Octob e r he w as a t a public. house at that Oboe, called the Salisbury Crest, and left to return home about a quarter past 8 o'clock. When he bed got a short distance a man, whom he believed to tiv the prisoner Itichiwd eon, came up to him, and put some question to him, and am he was about to reply, the prisoner knocked bim into a dile!), and struck him with a life-preserver; and another man, who was stated to be the other prisoner, then came up, and the two rifled his pockets of till money and other property that was about his pesos. It was proved that both the pruoners were drinking at a beenhop about the time the robbery win committed, and that they were seen following the prosecutor, and there was no reasonable doubt upon the evidence that the prisoners were the parties by whom the offence was com mitted. Tieprleoner Dimmock, when celled upon fur his defence, made a very plausible statement, to the effect that he was entirely innocent of the crime of which be was accused, and he asserted that the robbery was committed by hie tallow prisoner ; end he uld be told him at the time that he wee afraid he would get him into trouble, althoogh he was quite ianocest. The other prisoner, Richardson, before he made hie defence elated the learned judge to inform him whether the statement that had been made by his companion would be taken as 'Ticino° against him P Mr. Justice Wightman said certainly not; and he should tell the jury that it ought not to weigh at all against him. Richardson then made a long and elaborate statement to the jury. He commenced by expressing his regret that be wee unable to addrees a court and jury to the manner they should be by resaon of his want of education, but he said be hoped to be ably to satisfy them that there was no foundation for the charge that had been made sgainst him. Hs said that he was a bricklayer, and having been thrown out of work by the strike in London he came down tato Hertfordshire to seek foe employment, and between Hatfield and Emenden he; met his fellow prisoner Dimmock, whom he recognised as bavieg been in 001111114131.11 t with him at Portland. They got into cuiversation ; and Dimmock told him that he had been living in the neighbourhood, and that he had "wormed himself" into the good opinion of the squire and the parson, end that he intended to rob them both the first opportunity that presented itself. He than de tailed several plans he had made to commit different rob beries during the winter, and said that when he had got all he could he intended to leave the place, and be wished him (Richardson) to join in there robberies, but he refused to do so. They then went to a beer-shop, and Dimmock told him that there wee no one in the house but an old man and woman end a girl, and be knew where they kept the money, and he proposed to recrete himself in an upstairs room, and to come down in the night and let him in, and he said that they could then join in the robbery. He declared that be refused to have any concern In the matter, and Dimmock afterwards told him that belted watched an old farmer, whom be believed to be the press enter, and that he should have robbed him on a previous night if he bad not had some one with him. The prisoner then went on to say that Dimmock and another wan, whom ha called his mate, were the persons who robbal the pro secutor, and that he now bad the treachery, or rather, as he said, the villas'', to accuse him of it, in order that he, who woe the really guilty party, might escape punishment. The learned judge having slimmed up, the jury almost immediately returned a verdict of Gtuity against the pri soners, and certificates were put In by which it appeared that they bad been pteviouely convicted of felony and sen tenced to four years' penal servitude. They were sentenced to be kept in penal servitude for ten years. Lord Chief Justioe Erle was engeged the greater part of the day in trying an ratios for deader, which did not pos sess the lust feature of interest to the public. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—Ratmo, FEB. 29.
