The screw steam gunvessel Mohawk, 6, purchased by Capt. Osborn for the Chinese Government, has been removed from Hamoaze into the basin at Key ham Steam-yard, for the purpose of having her ma chinery examined and overhauled. The iron-cased frigate Royal Oak, 50, 1,000 horse power, was removed from Chatham harbour into No. 3 dock yesterday afternoon, for the purpose of having the remainder of her armour plates bolted to her sides. At the time of her launch the Royal Oak drew about 19ft. aft and 13ft. forward, but since she has been lying in the harbour she has shipped her iron masts and bowsprit, together with her six boilers, condensers, and other heavy portions of her machinery, amounting in the whole to several hundred tons, which has brought her down considerably more than a foot. To enable her to enter the dock the height of the blocks on the floor was considerably reduced, and a few minutes before 1 o'clock she was successfully floated, the depth of water being between three and four feet between her keel and the bottom of the dock. The projecting granite sides of the dock had also been cut away, allowing the frigate just sufficient room. During afternoon the the Royal Oak was shored up on the blocks, and last evening the operation of pumping out the dock was commenced. Every exertion will be used to complete the vessel for sea, to accomplish which some 300 hands will be daily employed on her for several months to come, About 70 of the iron armour plates have already been bolted to her sides, leaving between 200 and 300 more still to be fixed. Most of these, however, have already been annealed, bent, drilled, and otherwise prepared, so that as little time as pos- Bible will be lost in the operation of plating her, the Admiralty being desirous that no time should be lost in having one of the squadron of the new armour-plated frigates actually at sea. The short supply of coals at Portland, recently alluded to in The Sun, will soon be remedied, Mr. Leather, the contractor, having ordered large sup plies to be immediately forwarded to that port for the use of her Majesty's ships. The undermentioned gentlemen have been nomi nated to naval cadetships:—R. W. Okes, Voysey, S. H. Kay, A. Haggard, and C. S. Naylor. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Capt. W. M. Dowell, to the Barrosa ; Commander A. J. Kingston, to the Per seus ; Commander R. C. Mayne, to the Eclipse ; R. Coen, master, to the Barrosa; R. Gilpin, master, to the Perseus; A. J. A. Parks, master, to the Eclipse; B. Gregory, assist-surg., to the Sutlej ; T. H. Atkinson, acting assist. -sung., to the Satlej ; H. J. R. Miall, paymaster to the Barrosa ; C. G. Smith, aymaster, to the Perseus ; C. E. Phillips, pay master to the Eclipse; A. Hughes, assist-pay - master, to the Perseus ; W. J. C. Row, assist.- paymaster, to the Barrosa; F. A. Keogh, assist.- paymaster, to the Cornwallis ; John N. Colborne, assist.-paymaster, to the Hawke; J. Roffey, chief engineer, to the Sutlej ; J. Sumner, engineer, to the Sutlej ; J. Orchard, first class assist.-engineer, to the Asia, for the Savage; D.

Taylor, first class assist.-engineer, to the PhoThe ; G. W. Robins, first class assist.-engineer, to the Indus, for the Delight ; A. S. Reeve, second class assist.-engineer, to the Sutiej ; 11. Rigby, acting second class assist-engi neer, to the Sutlej ; A. Le B. Corrie, clerk, to the Eclipse ; F. J. Mould, clerk, to the Barrosa ; H. C. Jenkins, clerk, to the Pembroke ; E. R. Nettleton, clerk, to the Russell ; R. C. Webb, clerk, to the Blenheim ; and C. 31. F. Zorr, assist.-clerk, to the Revenge. 711 E NAVY. A trial, by order of the Lords of the Admiralty, is now being made on board the St. Vincent, train ing ship, at Portsmouth, of a plan introduced to the notice of their Lordships by Mr. Phipson, C.E., of London, for ventilating the 'tween decks of her Ma jesty's ships of war. The apparatus consists of an air shaft or cylinde4, 4 ft. Sin. in diameter, continued in lengths from the upper to the lower decks. The -first length from the upper deck, being made of sheet iron, contains the fan, at a level with the cell irg of the main deck, and the remainder of the lengths between each deck are of sail-cloth, so as to admit the whole being removed at any time to work the guns or for any other reason. The fan is worked from the main deck by a small two-horse power vertical engine. The fan consists of two blades, set at an angle of about 50 deg., regulated by a spring placed on the spindle. Above the fan is placed a dial to indicate at any time the amount of air supplied to the decks below. The amount supplied by the apparatus on board the St. Vincent is 508,000 cubic feet per hour. There is no perceptible draught pro duced, the inlet of pure, cold air below displacing and driving out the hot impure air floating above. So far the experiment on board the St. Vincent ap pears to have been perfectly successful, but the St. Vincent is not a seagoing or even one of our efficient war ships, being merely a training ship, with a free communication fore and aft her lower deck, without the machinery, stockholes, and compartments below of our iron ships. As we have said, so far the ex periment appears to have been perfectly successful, but, if only on account of this very success, it should be tried on board one of our iron ships. In these vessels, which are divided into compartments below, the engine-rooms and stokeholes, when the machi nery is worked up to full power, become intolerably hot. As the Defence is now in dock at Portsmouth, she offers a capital opportunity for testing the new apparatus. • Orders were received yesterday at Plymouth to commission, store, and provision the screw steam sloop Perseus, 17, now in the first division of the steam reserve in Hamoaze ; she will have a comple ment of 175 officers and men. The screw steam frigate Phoebe, 51, just commis sioned at Devonport by Capt. Fortescue, received her detachment of Royal Marines yesterday. It is now reported that she may be sent to China, The paddlewheel steam sloop Argus, 6, which arrived from Sheerness at Plymouth on Tuesday morning, is now in the Sound filling up with coal. She will convey to Japan a detachment of Royal Marines to do duty as a bodyguard for the British Legation. His Prussian Majesty's screw steam corvette Ar cona, 26, Capt. Sundewall, having been repaired at Devonport Dockyard, is now in Plymouth Sound, receiving her powder preparatory to her return home. 7HE ARMY. His Royal Highness the Dake of Cambridge ar rivd eat Portland on Monday evening in the Admi „EDT steam yacht Vivid, from an official visit of i n spection to the Channel Islands. His Royal Highness remained in 'Weymouth all night, and returned on Tue sda y m orning. The Vivid, after taking in coals at the breakwater, will leave for Portsmouth immediately. The following circular memorandum has been promulgated at the head-quarters of the Royal En. gineers' establishment, Chatham : " 1. The Secretary of State for War has, with the sanc tion of the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury and the concurrence of his Royal Highness the General Commanding-in-Chief, approved the following regulations in regard to the future arrangement and designation of the Department of the Inspector-General of Fortifications. " 2. The present office of Inspector-General of Fortifica tions to be in future designated Inspector-General of En gineers and Director of Works. " 3. This officer to be considered as a General officer on the staff of the army, holding the position of a Divisional General as regards his own special corps, at the same time that he conducts the department connected with barracks, fortifications, and other works. 4. In his capacity of Inspector-General of Engineers he will be in direct communication with the General Com roanding-in-Chief ; in his capacity of Director of Works he will be under the immediate authority and control of the Secretary of State for War. i 4 5, The duties connected with the "War -office will be conducted by two assistants, heads of branches, under his supervision, the one for barrack buildings, the other for fortifications and civil buildings. "6. The duties connected with the General Commanding in •Chief to be carried on as follows :—All orders issued to the corps to be in the name of the General Commanding-i n ., Chief, by the Adjutant-General of the army, as at present; but inasmuch as it is essential that the Inspector-General of Engineers, in his double capacity as military officer and "a ituActionary of the War Department, should have the Yesterday Col. Nedham continued his inspection of the Royal Artillery in the Chatham district. In the morning he examined the kits, arms, and accoutrements of the non-commissioned officers and men, together with the horses, Armstrong guns, carriages, &c., of the field battery, 9th brigade, all of which were found to be in a thoroughly efficient state. After exercising the battery in a variety of evolutions, all of which were exceedingly well per formed, the inspection terminated with an exami nation of the books, accounts, and documents of the brigade. 7HE LORD CHANCELLOR'S LAND TRANSFER ACT. As the lst of October—the period at which it is announced that the Lord Chancellor's Land Trans fer Act is to come into operation—is now close at hand, it may not be unacceptable to those of our readers who are interested in that measure to be presented with a succinct outline of its provisions. The object of the Act, as stated in the preamble, is threefold ; first, to give certainty or security to the title to real estates ; secondly, to facilitate the proof of such title ; and thirdly, to render the dealing with land more simple and inexpensive than it is at present. First, as to giving certainty or security to the title to land. This certainty or security is effected by rendering titles indefeasible or unassailable. With this view the Act establishes a registry of the title to landed estates, which registry is not to ex tend to copyhold estates, but only to freeholds and to long leaseholds. In order to obtain an indefeasible title to free hold estates, persons -who, whether beneficially or as trustees, are individually or collectively owners of or entitled to the fee simple, or who are owners of the first estate of freehold and first vested estate of inheritance, or who have contracted for the pur chase of land and are authorised by their contract to do so, or with the vender's consent, may apply for the registration of their title as indefeasible; but the registration of a title as indefeasible can be effected in those cases only in which there is shown to the registrar appointed under the Act a market able title—that is, such a title as a court of equity would, in the absence of special contract, enforce upon an unwilling purchaser. The title presented for registration will be inves tigated by the registrar and examiners of title, who will be either the conveyancing council of the Court of Chancery or such other conveyancing counsel and persons as the Lord Chancellor may appoint, and questions of doubt upon any title may be re ferred, by way of summons in chambers, to such judge of the Court of Chancery as the Lord Chan cellor also shall appoint ; so that in very exceptional cases only, if, indeed, ever, will proceedings in the nature of a suit be necessary. If the title shall be approved the applicant for re gistration must furnish to the registrar,- 1. An exact description of the lands to be regis- tered. 2. A statement of the several persons interested in such lands, and of the nature of such interest ; an d 3. A statement of the charges and incumbraneas (if any) on such lands, and of the persons entitled thereto. When the description of the lands has been settled and the registrar is satisfied with the title, notices are to be given by public advertisement of the intention to register the lands. Such notices are to contain copies of the description of the lands to be registered, and of the names and descriptions of the applicants for registration, and they aro to be served on every adjoining occupier and the per son to whom such occupier pays rent, and also on every person who shall appear to have any estate or interest in the lands, and on such other persons as may be deemed necessary. The notices must also state the period and place at which cause may be shown against the proposed registration. Thus, the notices are not to.be given until the title is approved ; so that the rejection of any appli cation to register a title on the ground of its not being marketable, will not be a matter o f pu bli c i ty or notoriety any more than is th e re j ection now of a title by a conveyancer. If, at the expiration of the time stated in the notice no objection shall be made to the registra tion, the registration will be completed, first, by an entry of the description, of the estate i n a book to be called The Itegister of E states with an Indefeasible Title ;" secondly, by an entry in another book to be called " The Record of Title to Lands on the Registry " of the person s entitled to the lands mentioned in the first-named book ; and, thirdly, by an entry in a third book to be called " The Register of Mortgages and In cumbrances" of the mortgages and incumbrances (if any) affecting the lands named in the Record of Title. -, When the title is re g i s t ere d as i n d e feasible, no person 'will registry except admitted to inspect the books of the owners, or mortgages, or incum brancers, or their solicitors or agents, or except under an order of the Court of Chancery. Thus publicity, one objection to a registration, is guarded against, and the books of registration will be as private as a landowner's titl e deeds. Tire title deeds also which shall have been sub mitted to the registrar will not be kept by ihim, but they will be returned to th e owner, and if the title should be registered they will be stamped, to indicate that the land to which they relate has been registered under the act. After the ti t l e has been registered, the registrar will persevere in hi s o ffi ce printed copies of all deeds dated subsequent to the registration relating to the lands registered. It should here be observed that whellsPeakin g of indefeasible titl es un d er the act, titl e s will in reality only be indefeasible in the hands of mortgagees and purchasers for value, and persons claiming through tam. So that a person iu possession a lzAin.L The length of time which ordinarily elapses be tween a contract for the sale of land and its com pletion is well known. It is seldom less than three months, and often, and sometimes more than three times three months, before the conveyance is exe cuted and the transaction completed. This interval is taken up in examining the abstract, in making requisitions upon it, and answering them. Occa-• sionally, also, one of the contracting parties resorts to the Court of Chancery to settle his differences with the other contracting party. Under the Land Transfer Act little time will be lost in investigat ing a title once registered, as the date of registra tion will form an epoch or fresh starting point an terior to which it will not be necessary to make any investigation whatever into the title, inasmuch as the title will be unassailable by anything which may have happened prior to registration and the registry of estates. The Record of Title and the Register of Incumbrances (if any) will, as we have already said, in fact form the abstract of title. Thus one fruitful source of expense under the present system of land transfer, the investigation of the title, will be done away with. But the Act does not: stop there. The mode of conveyance will be rendered as short as possible, and consequently the expense of the conveyance greatly lessened. The Act provides that all registered land may be conveyed or dealt with— 1. By a statutory disposition in any of the forms described in the schedule to the Act. 2. By endorsement on the land certificate. 3. By deposit of the land certificate. 4. By any deed, will, or other instrument by which land, not registered, may now be conveyed or dealt with ; but no equitable mortgage or lien on registered land shall be created by a deposit of title-deeds. The only way, then, in which an equitable mortgage of registered land can be created is by a deposit of the land certificate. The schedule comprises forms of conveyance of land, of mortgage, of transfer of land by endorse ment on the land certificate, and of transfer of mort gage, all of them being in the shortest possible form. For example, the form of transfer of land is as follows : "Dated this day of . I, AB, of &c., in con- sideration of (five thousand pounds) paid to me, grant to C D and his heirs for ever, all (insert description of land). "Signed and sealed by A. B. " Witness—E F, of, &c., a Solicitor of the High Court of Chancery, or a certificated conveyancer." We know not whether it be intended that in all those cases in which the forms comprised in the schedule are used the execution of them shall be attested by either a solicitor in Chancery or a certi ficated conveyancer. If so, it is clear that there may be cases in which suph a requisition would be highly inconvenient, if not impossible to be com plied with. This, however, is a matter which would seem to be readily susceptible of remedy, in asmuch as the Lord Chancellor has the power of altering the forms stated in the schedule by pub lished advertisement in the London Gazette. We should add that the lands placed in the re gistry may be withdrawn from it at any time, and that the enactments of the act are purely permissive, and do not oblige landowners to register under it. Upon the application, by petition or otherwise, of any of the persons empowered to apply for a regis- tration of title as before mentioned, sales of land with an indefeasible title may be made under the act by the Court of Chancery, in the same manner as sales are made by the Landed Estates Court in Ire land. The act also provides for registration without an indefeasible title in cases where the applicant or person through whom he claims has been in the enjoyment or receipt of the rents of land, as owner of the fee simple, continuously for ten years prior to the period of the application. In these eases no investigation of title will take place beyond the production to the registrar of the last deed or will (if any) under which the applicant derives title ; and, apparently, the only expense will be that attendant on settling the description of the parcels and ascertaining the boundaries. The act also does not prescribe the mode in which the registration of land without an indefea sible title is to be effected; but we presume that in ticis case books similar to those which will be kept for the registration of indefeasible titles will be used. The advantage which will attend registration without an indefeasible title will be that the record of title will evidence all dealings with the land sub sequent to such registration, as in the case of regis tration with an indefeasible title. After the estate has been on the registry for a few years the title may possibly be accepted by purchasers and mort gagees without further investigation; and the re gistrar is empowered under the act to fix a time when the title will become indefeasible. In this latter case, however, we presume—for the act does not say so—that, as in the case of lands originally registered with an indefeasible title, the title would be indefeasible only in the hands of a purchaser for valuable consideration. That the act will prove successful we can scarcely doubt. In the case of sales under it with an inde feasible title by the Court of Chancery we have in deed the introduction into England of the principle of the Landed Estates Court in Ireland, and that such sales will from their manifest advantages be resorted to we think tolerably certain. Again, it is to be borne in mind that landowners who at the time of the registration of their lands with an indefeasible title have no immediate sale in view will, by such a registration, expedite and facilitate a sale at a future period if they should make one, and moreover that they will thereby almost certainly insure a better price for their land, inasmuch as the title will be indefeasible or unimpeachable in the hands of a purchaser for value. Some landowners have been thrown into a ner vous steal of excitement by the fear that their lands 11ia5 . 1 under the Act, be conveyed away from them iniAefeasibly ; but it may allay their apprehensions to be told that there is only one case in Ireland in which the Encumbered Estates Court has sold land as belonging to one person while in reality it belonged t to az whoothe tars;atne th dt a h t a; r. , T as w regards t r t R e : a u s p e e r l , l co c u a l s d e : ho under the Lord Chancellor's Act, have procured an indefeasible title had the Act been in operation at the time of the sale to him, assume that the title of The precautions adopted in pursuance of the pro clamation have proved effective. There was no rioting last night, and it is believed they will not be renewed. There has been a regular "flitting" from the disturbed districts. All the Protestants residing in the " Pound district" have packed up and removed to other parts of the town, not think ing their lives safe in the enemy's camp. In like manner all the Roman Catholics of the "Sandy row district" have removed to places where their presence will not be regarded as a standing offence to their neighbours. This moving is not a matter of choice with either of the parties. They had got notice to quit, and they would remain at their peril. One of the measures adopted on Monday night for the preservation of the peace was to have all the publichouses all closed at 6 o'clock. Another was to prevent the assembling of crowds in the streets. The people were required to " move on." The navvies marched up again from their work in regu lar order with their spades and hammers. They were stopped by the military, while the police disarmed them and lodged their weapons in the barracks. These measures kept the districts usually disturbed in a state of quietness; but there was another part of the town unaccountably neglected—" entirely given over to a riotous mob"—consisting of Roman Catholics. The result was the wrecking of a large number of houses. They extinguished the lamps and attacked a party of police, which they drove back till they were reinforced. Several hundred Orangemen were assembled in the Orange-hall and in the street outside, well armed and ready to de fend it at all hazards. They were fortunately not attacked, otherwise there would have been some bloody work. During all this night there was but one man arrested, and that was by the Mayor him self in person. "Is it to be longer endured," asks the Northern Whig," that with 2,000 armed men in Belfast, a lot of ruffians are to set all law and order at defiance—are to assault innocent people who are travelling quietly to their homes, knock them down, kick them, and otherwise abuse them, for no cause or reason whatever ?" Several respectable people were frightfully abused in this way—beaten almost to death and robbed of their watches and money, Thirteen persons have been arrested for taking pare in the riots. They were brought before the magistrates on Monday ; one was fined 405., the other twelve were remanded. EXTRAORDINARY DESTRUCTION OF A FLOCK OF 111 SHEEP. CO SHAM, H ANTS. By one of the most extraordinary accidents which it has ever been our lot to chronicle, Mr. George Peel, an extensive occupier of land, and sheep farmer, residing at Wymering Farm, near Cosham, within a short distance of Portsmouth, lost more than a hundred sheep on the afternoon of Saturday last. It would appear that, in a large field on the Horndean-road, about half a mile from Waterloo, there was a flock of about 500 sheep, the property of Mr. Peel, which were in charge of a shepherd named Francis Whitcher. This man states that he left the sheep all right about twelve o'clock a.m., and went over to Waterloo to get a paunch for his dog, which he took with him. About half-past two word was brought to Mr. Peel's house that the sheep were in a ditch, and on Janus Carter, another of Mr. Peel's shepherds, going to the field he found a vast number of sheep jammed together in the ditch, and the others striving to force their way in. With great difficulty the sheep were driven back, and 70 were got out of the ditch alive, but 114 were found dead in the ditch, The ditch is about 40 feet long, 12 feet wide, and 6 feet deep, and it would seem that one sheep having gone in, the others followed, till they were all jammed together, and literally suffocated. The ditch was perfectly dry. The carcases were got out and carted to Mr. Peel's farm-yard, where in a very few hours the progress of decomposition was apparent. The skins were removed, and the carcasses were sold to knackers and tallow-chandlers. Mr. Peel's loss will amount to upwards of £2OO. Among those suffocated were five valuable rams, and many of the ewes were with lamb. SUPERSTITION IN A RICHLAND GLEN. Some days ago, in an upland strath no 50 miles from Ben Avon, a very extraordinary disclosure of superstitious belief in the rimer of "fortune-tell ing " came to our knowledge , The story (says our correspondent) is as under, and we have it from good authority :—" A band of tirkers had been peram bulating the district, and it vrould appear one of the grannies' of the tribe had Nen holding forth offers to some of the female pertiot of the inhabitants to read their fortunes for so much. Having got a job from one woman, who, by the way, gave her 2s. extra to tell her how her lnsband behaved, as she was jealous of his fidelity towards her, one part of the performance was that tha ' spae wife' would re quire a full suit of the womtn's best clothes to be buried for two days. Tha fortune-tellers' not returning with the clothes aad the tidings as to her fortune at the time specified, the woman set out in pursuit, but not without great reluctance to tell any of her neighbours of what she was after. How ever, a neighbouring wife, whom she passed in her pursuit, suspecting what she was after, joined in the hunt with her, and in coarse the pursuers in creased in numbers considerably, and at last came upon the jolly tinkers' camp. The ' spae wife' was missed, having been seen to deca m p from the ren dezvous and conceal herself unde r t he ruins of a n old brid ge . Sh e was so on, however, dragged from her den, and a regular stand - up battle of ton gues ensued. A m ong other remarks was that of the second party who had joined in the pursuit, who said—" Oh, woman, you should have given her the half-sovereign at once that's what :.he read my fortune for yesterday.' The squabble ended in the deluded owner of the clothes taking them back by force ; but the ' twa shillings' were not forth coming. We thought such superstitious notions were entirely exploded ; but it would seem there are still some jobs for 'fortune tellers' in the High lands,—Banffshire Journal. fullest power of dealing with the officers of his corps as may appear most satisfactory to himself with reference to the public service, the Deputy Adjutant-General of It, yal En gineers will, in the first instance, confer with the Inspector- General of Engineers on all selections and trans' era of the officers of the corps; and the recommendatio of the In spector-General of Engineers respecting such - lections and transfers will be attached to the Deputy-Adjutant-General's papers before coming to the General Commanding-in-Chief ; the latter will then forward the recommendation to the Secretary of State, who will concur in them or reject them as he may think desirable, without the necessity of again referring them back to the Inspector-General of Engineers. The Inspector-General of Engineers to be empowered to make the departmental inspection of his corps whenever he may think proper, and to make any recommendation, at all times, he may think desirable to the General Commanding in-Chief. "7. In accordance with the above arrangements, the Secretary of State for War has appointed General Sir John Burgoyne, G.C.8., as Inspector-General of Engineers and Director of Works, upon the salary which he now receives as Inspector-General of Fortifications, with the duties described above. The appointment of Deputy-Inspector-General of Fortifications is abolished. The Secretary of State has ap pointed Lieut.-Col. Jervois to be Assistant• Director of Works (for fortifications and civil buildings), and Captain Belfield to be Assistant Director of Works (for barrack buildings), with a salary of £7OO a year in each case. The Secretary of State has also appointed Capt. Martindale, R.E., to be Director of the Barrack Dapartment, upon a salary of £5OO a-year, the duties of this office to be sepa rated from those of the Inspector-General of Engineers, and formed into a distinct branch. "8. These appointments are to be held for a period of five years, subject to re-appointment by the Secretary of State, in the event of his considering it beneficial for the public service. " G. C. LEWIS." A review of the troops in garrison at Portsmouth took place on Southsea-common yesterday by Lord W. Paulet, C.B. The force on the ground com prised the S and .R batteries of the 4th brigade of Field Artillery, commanded respectively by Lieut.- Col. Barstow and Capt. Marten, the whole under the command of Lieut.-Col. Anderson, C.B. The 2d battalion 20th Regiment was under Col. Rad cliffe ; 53d Regiment, Col. English, C.B. ; 55th Regiment, Col. Hume ; 2d battalion 60th Rifles, Col. Muter; Royal Marine Light Infantry, under Col. Haines, giving a total number of 121 officers, 2,620 non-commissioned officers and men, 12 guns (Armstrong 12-pounders), 157 horses, and 12 ammunition waggons. The force first marched past, and then went throught a series of move ments incidental to an attack on Southsea Castle. To-morrow the garrison and field artillery will be officially inspected on Southsea Common by Lord Paulet. TIE ' I SUN, LONDOS, THURSDAY g;VENINA, SEPTEMBER 25, 1862. quired by purchase, gift inter vivos, devise, or &scent, cannot obtain for himself an indefeasible title to them under the act. Upon application the registrar will deliver to the owner of any lands upon the registry a certificate, called a Lands Certificate, which is to contain copies of the entries in the registry book. An incum brancer, also, will be entitled to have a certificate of his incumbrances. If a certificate should be lost, the registrar may grant a new one in its place; but the new one will not be of any avail against any person who may have derived title under the former certificate. Thus far, then, as to obtaining an indefeasible title. But how will the second object of the act, facili tating the proof of the title to the real estates on the register, be attained ? The act provides that, after the registration of any land as indefeasible, every estate or interest, of what kind soever, created or arising therein, shall be entered in the Record of Title or Register of In cumbrances, as the case may be. We may here add that the act further expressly enacts that no unre gistered estate or interest shall prevail against the title of any subsequent purchaser for valuable con sideration registered under the act; hereby sweep ing away—and most properly sweeping away—all those doctrines and principles in regard to notice which have gone far to render nugatory the provi sions of the heretofore existing Registration Acts. The Registry of Estates, the Record of Title, and the Register of Incumbrances (if any) will in fact form the abstract of title, and the root of the title will be the registration. Thus registration will facilitate the proof of the title to lands, by holding up, as it were, in a mirror the state of the title and enabling such proof to be made almost at a glance ; for every entry in the registry books will be in the shortest form consistent with accuracy, a deed of several skins of parchment being in the great majo• rity of cases stated in a few lines. We have now to consider the third object of the act, simplifying and cheapening the dealing with land. Wm. Roupell would have passed unscathed through the ordeal of the new Land Registry-office, an as sumption which, as we humbly conceive, is not entitled to be made. Since the above was in type we have heard that it is not improbable the opening of the Land Re gistry-office may be postponed until towards the end of October ; for although the Lord Chancellor has exerted himself greatly to bring his Act into operation on the day on announced, the difficulties attendant upon the first establishment of an important public department are so numerous, owing mainly to the delays which take place in the communications between the different public offices, that we understand it is almost impossible to com plete the arrangements for opening the Land Regis try-office by the day first named. GUILDHALL.—ALLEGED WHOLESALE SWIN DLING.—LeopoId S hocke, a foreigner, who described himself as a commission agent, was brought up by Sergeant Funnell, of the City detective force, before Alderman Rose, for final examination, relative to the charge of feloniously uttering a forged order for the delivery of goods to the value of £290, and with conspiring with one Henry Cowen, who has since fled the country, to defraud the Tees Woollen Company, of Barnard's Castle, in the county of Durham, of goods to the value of £3,000. Mr. Lewis, jun., conducted the prosecution. Mr. L. C. Lumley, of the firm of Lumley and Lumley, attended for the Tees Woollen Company. Mr. Beard for creditors of Cowen, the absconding bankrupt, Mr. Morgan, of the firm of Humphreys and Mor gan, appeared on behalf of Mr. Venables. Mr. Orridge, instructed by Mr. M. Abrahams, attended for Messrs. Spielmann and Co. Mr. Wavell, from Stubbs's Trade Protection Offices, and Mr. Pocock, from the Merchants' and Traders' Association, watched the proceedings on behalf of eubscribers. Mr. Buchanan defended the prisoner. The depositions taken on the last examination having been read over, Mr. Lewis said he proposed calling other two witnesses before closing his case. One of them was a lad who had been in the employ of Cowen, and would be able to prove that the prisoner was at the office daily assisting Cowen in a variety of ways, but not in the capacity of a clerk or servant. It had been suggested that the prisoner was a servant, and therefore innocent ; but it was well known that a servant might be equally guilty with the master in matters of this kind, and he would show not only the manner in which Cowen's account at Messrs. Spielmann's was opened and closed, but — Mr. Martin said that could have no material bear ing upon the case before the Court. Mr. Lewis said it was important, as it was part of the evidence in support of the charge of conspi racy to defraud the Tees Woollen Company of their goods. Of course, he could not connect the prisoner with the opening of the account, but he would show that, on the 13th of August, he was in possession of patterns, and sold the goods at a rate very much below the invoice prices, Cowen having previously stated that he required them for shipment to a Paris merchant, for whom he was correspondent, a state ment corroborated by the prisoner upon his appre hension ; and on the 14th of August the goods ar rived. On the same day the prisoner was shown bargaining with the carman for their delivery to Messrs. Venables, the goods never having been unpacked after their arrival from the railway, and he had been previously, and is afterwards present in the office when Cowen offers to go and get the packer's receipt for the goods, and accompanies him for that purpose, well know ing that he had already sold the goods which Cowen represented as being at the packers. He returned with Cowen, who gave the forged receipt to Mr. Walker, the manager of the Tees Woollen Company, and eventually, after Cowen had left the country, the prisoner was shown to have been dictating a letter to Mr. Walker, explaining the reason why remittances had not been forwarded to be that Mr. Cowen had been disappointed in getting money from his Paris house, in consequence of a delay in th© delivery of the goods at Paris. To show that the prisoner must have known the receipt was a forgery, he would adduce evidence to prove that on a former occasion the prisoner had employed Mr. Southgate, of London-wall, as a packer, and that the firm of Bellinger and Co., packers, of Jewry-street, Ald gate, so far from having done business with the pri soner or Cowen, were in fact a fictitious firm. If all these circumstances were not sufficient evidence of a conspiracy to defraud, of course there would be an end of the case. Alderman Rose asked why the transaction of the Ist of August had been introduced ? Mr. Lewis said it was to show that the goods were disposed of by the prisoner directly they ar rived, at a great reduction, and that other goods were afterwards sold by him in the same manner, and ou the same terms. Mr. Walker was then recalled, and said that on the Ist of August the goods sold to Cowen amounted to £368 14s. 5d., and that on the same day he (Cowen) remitted him £lOO. Cross-examined—On the day that Cowen gave him the forged receipt he asked him, having great confidence in his honesty, for a receipt acknowledg ing that he was holding the goods to the company's order, upon which Cowen said the packer's receipt would be more business-like, and said, in the pri soner's presence, "We will go and get the packer's receipt for the goods." The prisoner was in another room when Cowen gave witness the receipt. Re-examined—They made use of a " blind" to prevent him going with them. Edward Wm. Holland said he was in Cowen's em ploy for four months as errand boy. The prisoner was there every day. About a month ago a man from Mr. Southgate, the packer, of London-wall, came to pack some goods, and the prisoner said he had sent him. When Cowen left he said he was going to Brighton. William Farr, manager to Mr. Southgate, the packer, proved that he sent a man by the prisoner's orders to Union-court for some goods to pack on the 6th August. Those goods were forwarded to Glasgow. Messrs. Spielmann's bookkeeper produced Cowen's account, and in answer to questions from Mr. Lewis and the Court, said a person of the name of Henry Cowen opened an account at their house on the 10th July with a sum of £l2l 10s. Bd. Mr. Martin said this evidence had no reference to the present charge. Mr. Orridge, on behalf of Messrs. Spielmann, said it was not his clients' wish to shut out any in formation that the prosecution might require. Mr. Lewis said it was material, as his case was that the whole of these matters connected with Cowen were a swindle, as was apparent from the fact that in the short period of two months he had succeeded in getting possession of £6,000 worth of goods. Mr. Martin said he could not see the material bearing of these facts on the prosecution of the pri soner. IRELAND. DUBLIN, SEPT. 24. The magistrates of Belfast have at length re solved to act with something like vigour. They found, after nearly a week's experience, that coax ing and reasoning with daring ruffians, who pelted them with stones while reading the Riot Act, had no effect but to encourage the work of destruction, which went on and increased night after night. On Tuesday, therefore, the Mayor issued a pro clamation which he ought to have issued on Thurs day, after the first night's rioting. The following is a copy of the proclamation : "W hereas the peace of the town has been seri ously disturbed by the illegal and tumultuous as sembling together of large bodies of persons for several nights past. " Now I, Charles Lanyon, Mayor of Belfast, do hereby give notice that the magistrates have de termined to apprehend all parties who refuse to disperse and peaceably to depart to their habitations after the reading of the Riot Act. " Sept. 22. CHARLES LANYON, Mayor." Notices " to the Orangemen of Belfast" were also placarded through the town, signed by "W. Peebles, District Secretary," one of which stated that— " Any Orangeman known to take any part what ever in the disgraceful riots which for a certain well known object are now got up in the town will be removed forthwith from the loyal Orange Institu tion." The other notice is as follows : " The riots which now disgrace our town are got up for a certain well•known object. Orangemen, be wise. Keep wholly away. Confine yourselves strictly to your homes, and exhort to this course all within your reach.' _____. Mr. Lewis said Cowen's account was an import ant feature in the case. The bookkeeper said the account was opened on the 10th July with money and bills, and on the Ist August a sum of £7O was paid to Cowen's credit, and a cheque for £lOO paid out to the Tees Woollen Company. On the 14th of August the balance in Cowen's favour was £75. Alderman Rose asked when the account was closed. Witness said on the 27th August. Alderman Rose inquired the total amount of the transactions with Cowen in that period, and what the balance of the account was at the time it was closed. Witness said the total of the transactions was £544 9s. 6d., and the balance of Cowen's account, on the 27th August, was 45. 101 d. Mr. Morgan said he was exceedingly glad that this witness had been called, as his evidence proved that Mr. Venables had actually paid the whole of the £125 for the goods, and not £25 only, as it was assumed on the former occasion on the production of the receipt. Alderman Rose said that was all cleared up on the last occasion, and it was not necessary to go into it again. Mr. Morgan said he was happy to hear the Alderman say so, as it was not generally understood to have been satisfactorily cleared up, as Mr. Ven ables had received from 50 to 60 letters on the sub ject, from persons to whom he was known, since the last examination. Mr. Orridge said he was also glad that the last witness had been called, as it afforded him an op portunity of saying something in reference to these transactions as far as Messrs. Spielmann were con cerned, and in answer to some observations made by the Alderman upon the subject, said it was quite evident that from the first introduction of Cowen to the closing of his account, his transactions with Messrs. Spielmann were of a perfectly bona fide character. He opened his account in a proper man ner, and during the time it was kept open, so far from ever being indebted to Messrs. Spielmann, he never overdrew his account, but on the Ist of August had a balance in his favour of £179 9s. 10d. Messrs. Spielmann could have no notion as to the probable duration of his account, which was kept open only so long as they had funds of his in their hands to meet any cheques he might draw against it. With regard to the references, Messrs. Spielm ann had been exceedingly care f u l not to recommend per sons for credit, and the inquiries instituted were not if Cowen could be trusted, but only if he had an account there, and if it would be safe to buy goods of him. It might have been extremely dangerous if Messrs. Spielmann had said that Cowen might be trusted to any amount —they had no idea that he might not be trusted —but they would not go out of their way to gia e him a better character than they thought he dese They felt that fia ccount, d that they Cowen's was a bona were doing him elalY a s i mple act of justice in what they knew of him.

With regard to his concluding remarks Ely-plsce, who deposed that he had known the pri on the last examination, he begged to state that he sonar as clerk to a gentleman at the b a r, and had. was not in the habit of using strong expressions, paid him many hundre d p ounds on account of his and as it was an error in the report, he hoped the master.

Tees Woollen Company at from 20 to 40 per cent. The accused here quitted the dock, and left the discount off the price the others were invoiced at. court accompanied by his friends. Mr. Lewis said Mr. Walker was present at the time the goods were sold, but they were not of the same weight, nor of the same number, as those sup plied to Cowen. Mr. Venables said they were the same quality goods, and as it had gone forth to the world that he had bought goods under price, he hoped it would also go forth that he had bought the same manu facture of goods direct from the Tees Woollen Com pany at a lower price that morning. Mr. Lewis said not the same numbers or weights, Mr. Venables said the same numbers and weights. Atderman Rose said he could not permit any more discussion on the subject there, and asked the prisoner what he had to say to the charge. Mr. Buchanan most ably summed up the whole features of the case, and having commented upon all the facts in evidence seriatim, as they appeared to affect his client, contended that there was no • thing in the prisoner's conduct from first to last inconsistent with his innocence of anything like participation in the fraudulent dealings of Cowen, and confidently submitted that the only course open to the court was to discharge the prisoner. Alderman Rose said he had given the best atten tion he could to the case, tod he felt he should not be doing his dnty if he did not send it for a jury to decide. It was urged that the prigoner was a ser - vant, and had no guilty knowledge of those trans actions, but he was found, according to the evi dence, to have been selling the goods on the 13th August and on the following day in company with Cowen, the two representing that the goods were still under their own control at the packers, and offering to give Mr. Walker control over them by an order on the packers, well knowing that they 'had already been disposed of to Mr. Venables. He ultimately dictated a letter, in which he makes the clerk state that there has been a delay in the deli very of those identical goods in Paris, and when apprehended, he at first denied all knowledge of them, and then said he supposed they had be en shipped. Under all the circumstances he could only come to the conclusion, Cowen having escaped, that the prisoner, who was about to leave the country, intended joining Cowen to share in the proceeds of these frauds, and he therefore had no hesitation in committing him to take his trial for uttering a forged receipt, and for conspiring with Cowen to obtain the goods and to defraud the Tees Woollen Com pany. Mr. Beard said every exertion had been made by the creditors, but they could not ascertain any clue to Cowen's whereabouts at present. Mr. Buchanan mentioned the question of bail. Alderman Rose said he had taken the responsi bility on himself of sending the case to a jury, and he must also take the responsibility of referring Mr. Buchanan to a judge with regard to bail. The prisoner was then committed for trial. [We aro requested by Mr. Walker to state that he was misunderstood at the last examination. He did not mean to say that the Tees Woollen Company sold goods below their invoice prices, as it was con trary to their practice, except upon the usual re cognised trade terms for cash.] COUNTRY MA RK 1:; NEWARK-WEDNESDAY.

From the evidence of several witnesses it ap peared that on Saturday evening last two young women, named Chantrey, left home for the purpose of going to a concert-room in St. John street. On their way they saw the deceased who requested •:them to drink with him, and they en tered a public-house. in the course of conversation they informed him that they were going to a concert-room to meet some friends, and, notwith standing they requested him not, he insisted upon following them there. The prisoner was in the room in compiny:with a brother of the girl Chantrey and another young man, with whom the dedeased en tered into conversation. They all left shortly before twelve o'clock, and on arriving at Clerken well-green the deceased was heard to fall heavily, and the prisoner was seen running away. On being picked up deceased was found to be quite insensible, and was conveyed to the Royal Free Hospital, where he died. Neither of the witnesses saw any blow struck, but only heard the fall, which they described as very heavy. It was further stated by some that the deceased was the worse for liquor, and constantly wishing to fight. Police-sergeant Arthur Browning said on taking the prisoner into custody he questioned him and informed him of the death of the man he had been in company with, but he made no reply. Mr. Hill, house-surgeon of the Royal Free Hos pital, showed that death had been the result of effusion of blood on the brain, caused by external violence, which must hav e been very violent, either by a blow or fall. The prisoner, who had nothing to say in anwer to the charge, was remanded for the production of further evidence. —SEPT. 23. Lot many country millers up.

The prosecutrix, the wife of a cheesemonger, de posed that on the day before she accompanied some friends to the Crystal Palace, and as Blondin was about to ascend, her friends and herself seated them selves on the coping or ledge of the terrace leading from the centre transept to the grounds and the top of the wide flight of steps. While looking at B lon din on the rope, the prisoner, who was seated two or three steps down, kept pulling her feet and dress. Soon after her sister-in-law said, " I don't like that man's behaviour; he has been pulling my feet ;" and she (witness) replied, " And so he has been mine ;" and immediately after missed her purse, containing 3s. 6d. or 4s. in silver. She mentioned her loss to herisister and brother-iu-law, and the latter at once said he had seen the prisoner put his hand under her cicak. She accused the prisoner of having robbed her of her purse, but he denied it, and was given into the custody of a constable who had been sent for. In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis, jun., the wit ness said that when accused, the prisoner made waspn attempt to escape or remove from where he ; on the contrary, he indignantly denied the charge, said he was the clerk for 10 years of Mr. —, Q.c., and offered to be searched. Her brother-in-law said there was no use in searching him then, and at this time the constable arrived and took him into custody. In reply to the magistrate, the witness said the prisoner kept sitting down and standing up, and when he stood his shoulders were on a level with her feet, and she was certain he had pulled her feet and clothes. Mr. Lewis—And I suppose you thought nothing of that ? Witness—l beg to tell you I did. Mr. Lewis--Did you not say to your brother-in law that somebody else might have taken your purse? Witness—l did not. Mr. Robt. Bigg, brother-in-law to the last witness, said that on being told that the purse was stolen, . he charged the prisoner with taking and told him he had seen his hand under the cloak of the complainant. In reply to Mr. Lewis, he said the accused at once offered to give his name and address, said what he was, and offered to be searched. Willi am Heath, 263 P, said the prisoner was given into his custody, when he at once declared his innocence of the charge, and at th e s t a ti on h e found nothing on him but his card-cas e , hi s p ur se, end Fey eral letters relating to professional business. s. d. s. d.
