OP THE SEN. —As the plan I suggested for stopping the rush of water over the fens appeared i n your valuable paper about 'bur weeks ago, I am induced again to trespass upon you r Columns, as the coffer dam has burst ;rota the cause I strongly urged upon the engineer;,, 'viz reliance upo n throwing th'lsands of ba gs . of earth into the away fro m th e , that if they placed drain on the upper sip sands of th e d am, they would be washed P :.,our and th e treacherous nature of the soil into which 'ihe piles were driven. Tow beg again that my mode for stopping the tidal Waters may be duly considered, and which consists in aprealing on the upper side of the dam a sheet of strong naval canvas, which can be made in sections, and laced together to any size, the outer end to be secured to the 'bottom by iron weights, and the end next the dam to be raised above the water and secured to the piles. To give the dam greater stability I would secure the ends of hawsers or chains to the top or bottom of the piles ; the other ends of the hawsers or chains to be taken ashore and secured to the banks by anchors or other holdfasts, and the chains or hawser. to be tightened by block and tackle. This plan need not cause any delay or much expense, nor interfere with the work already begun, but greatly facilitate it, as scouring is effectually prevented, the dam is rendered watertight, and held securely in position. As materials for the above plan, together with a staff of riggers, can be had at once, the dam could be rendered most efficient in a vary aiiort time. Your obedient servant, June 13, 1862. J.

COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) SPEED Y. SPEED AND KEY. This was a petition presented by the husband against the wife for divorce, on the ground of adultery with the co respondent. The marriage took place on the 10th of November in the year 1845, after which they resided together at Chelsea until 1848, when she deserted her husband, although up to the time of her leaving him they had lived on very affec tionate teems. She went to reside in Ebury-street, taking With her her infant child. In 1852 a reconciliation took place, and they resided together until the year 1860, when she again deserted her husband, and was found cohabiting with another person alleged to be the co-respondent, at 63, Sydney-street, Chelsea, they having taken apartments - in the name of Speed. Evidence of the marriage and adultery having been given, The Court thought the leading counsel had failed to identify the co-respondent, and also that there was addi tional evidence required as to the marriage. _ A witness named Spalding fixed the date of the marriage. The Judge Ordinary said the evidence was not sufficient to identify the co-respondent, therefore the decree nisi for a dissolution must be taken against the wife only, and it must be borne in mind that the marriage dissolved was that fixed by the witness. If it should turn out that the date was wrong the marriage would not be dissolved. POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AN OLD THIEF AND HER Purxn.—Ann Miles ana Emily Lester, two well dressed females, the former living in Gardener's-lane, Nirestminster, and the latter in Stam ford-street, Waterloo-road, were charged with attempting to steal a watch in the Haymarket. Sergeant Joy, 9 C, a little after 12 the previous night, when the Haymarket was pretty full of persons, in conse quence of the theatres being just over, saw the prisoners pushing among a crowd of gentlemen, and saw Mis take a watch out of a gentleman's pocket. The gentler seized his watch, and pushed the prisoner away, Lester being all the time close to her. While he (Joy) was trying to get to the gentleman the prisoners went up the Haymarket, and on his going after them he heard Miles say " Oh, here comes Joy." fie knew Miles as an old offender, but knew nothing of Lester. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ad dressed the magistrate on behalf of the prisoners, stating that there was no case against Lester. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should remand Miles, but discharge Lester. He had no doubt that Lester was in training by the other prisoner to become an accomplished thief, and she had better be careful, as she might not be so fortunate another time. Miles wished to address the magistrate, but Mr. Tyrwhitt said she had better be quiet, as she had been well defended, THAMES. LEADING A CAT AND DOG LIFE.—SINGULAR PROCEED INGS.-Mr. Edward Fulcher, sanitary inspector anti inspec tor of nuisances to the Poplar Board of Works, applied to Mr. Selfe for an order to compel Richard Nicholls, an elderly man, to permit the removal of an abominable nuisance. The case has been repeatedly before the magistrate. Tho defendant is the occupier of a delapidated and filthy wooden tenement, containing one room and a small back kitchen at 1, Legg's-buildings, Bow common, and upon Dr. Ansell, the medical officer of the district, and Mr. Fulcher visiting the place they found a great number of cats and dogs in the only room of the building, and which was the defendant's sleeping apartment, parlour, kitchen, and all. The animals were kept closely imprisoned in the place, and the effluvia was most intolerable and sickening. Both gentlemen beat a hasty retreat, amidst the yelping and barking of curs, and the discordant chorus of cats. Mr. Ansell had duly eeLtiflod that tho te ,, mises were in a filthy and unwholesome condition, and injurious to the health of the inhabitants, who had loudly complained of the nuisance. Mr. Fulcher, a useful medical officer, was of the same opinion, and would not answer for the consequences, if the place was not speedily cleansed, whitewashed, puri fied, and repaired. Mr. Selfe asked what the defendant was about, and if he kept cats and dogs for his own amusement ? Mr. Fulcher shook his head mysteriously. He believed the defendant was a dealer in cats and dogs for the —. He did not finish the sentence. Mr. James Davis, son of the owner of the tenement, s aid the defendant rented the tenement for 2s. 6d. per week, and owed £6 for rent. The defendant would not give up pos session, or allow him to carry out the Magistrate's order to remove the abominable nuisance. There were generally three or four ferocious dogs at the door. It was sickening to approach the premises to windward. Mr. Selfe said the defendant must not lead such a cat and-dog life any longer. He made the order applied for, and told the defendant, if he did not allow it to be carried out, he would be liable to a penalty of £5 per day while the nuisance continued. A BRACE OF THIEVES..—EIiza Keates, a servant, aged 20, and Jane Mitchell, a needlewoman, 37, were charged with stealing £4 16s. 6d., the monies of Mrs. Mary Ann Hodsall. The prosecutrix is dwelling at No. 18, Wellclose square. Keates had been in Mrs. Hodsall's service for 12 or 13 weeks, and Mitchell had been occasionally employed there as needlewoman. Mrs. Hodsall had £4 16s. 6d. in cash in her possession, which was deposited in a handker chief under her bed between the bed and the mattress. The servant Keates discovered the secret hoard of her mistress, and helped herself to it. She divided the plunder with the other prisoner, and both redeemed articles in pawn, pur chasedenew clothes and a crinoline each, and also paid a visit to sundry gin palaces, and indulged in copious liba tions of " Old Tom," and "Real Jamaica." When Mrs. Hod sail discovered the loss of her money she communicated with the police and two intelligent constables, named Turner, 64 H, and Chandler, 117 H, were soon upon the track of the prisoners, took them into custody, and discovered how they had expended the stolen money. Keates sa d i that Mrs. Mitchell persuaded her to steal the money, and that she had very little of it. She afterwards told the officers that she took Mrs. Hodsall's money from under the bed and laid it on the table, and Mrs. Mitchell took it off the table. The prisoner Mitchell recriminated, and said she had nothing to do with stealing the money, and only received half of it from Keates. The prisoners crixainated each other in the dock. "You know you persuaded me to take the money," exclaimed Keates. " Oh, you story-teller," replimi tho other. " You gave me the money, and said you stole it from under the led." A good deal of property and two crinolines purchased by the two women were produced, and they were remanded until Wednesday next.

TOPEAM. This was a petition presented by the wife against the husband, praying for divorce on the ground of cruelty, adultery, and desertion. The parties were married in 1851, and after this resided in High-street, Gravesend. The respondent neither appeared nor answered the petition. Mrs.MaryAnn Foster, the sister of the petitioner, proved the marriage, after which the parties lived in the High street, Gravesend. Her husband used to treat her very unkindly after marriage. In September, 1852, she heard him threaten to take her life, but before that she saw him strike her a violent blow with a stick at the railway station. He ceased to reside with his wife in October, 1852. Mrs. Emma Topham, the petitioner, said—l am the petitioner in this cause. After marriage I resided with my husband in High-street, Gravesend. We afterwards went to live at Northfleet, where we remained until 1852. At that period he took a situation, since which he has not lived with me. He went to sea in 1855 as a butcher: While living in High-street my husband was in the habit of getting drunk and Musing me. On one occasion he Etruck me at the railway station. I have lived with my father at Northfleet since my husband has been away. By the Judge Ordinary—ln addition to striking me at Ihe railway station, about a month before he came home drunk and threw me across the room. His father used to assist us while we lived at Northfieet. I could not go with him when he went into his situation, as he had to reside in the house. After this he went into the service of Mr. Levy, but in 1855 he went to sea. I have met my husband acci dentally in Gravesend since he left, but he never came to Northfieet to see either me or his child. My husband was imprisoned for 21 days, in consequence of the disturbance he made when he threatened my life ; but after that he resided with me. In 1855 he went on board ship to_ India, and I have only seen him once since, and then it was by accident. Mrs. Lamb, of Stone-street, Gravesend, said the respon dent came to live in her house. He brought a lady with him, but it was not the person who has just given her evidence. Decree nisi, with costs. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. Their lordships were occupied the whole of the sitting of the court in hearing enlarged rule causes. The case of Kennedy v. Brown and wife did not come on to-day. LORD MAYOR'S COURT. (Before the Recorder and a Jury.) IMPORTANT TO THE PRINTING TRADE.-WILSON Y. BELDING. This was an action to recover the balance of an accoun for printing, publishing, and advertising a certain pamphlet entitled, "Do we want a record of the Exhilition." Mr. Wills was counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. Howard for defendant. Mr. Wills, in opening the case, stated that his client was the well-known Effingham Wilson, of the Royal Exchange, and defendant a clerk in an American commercial house in this country. The present claim was for work done, and he (the learned counsel) was at a loss to know what the ' defence could be. Mr. Harmer said that he told the defendant the cost for 500 copies would be £5 55. per sheet, with a reduction for a second edition. Mr. Wilson, sen., deposed that he had carte blanche in reference to the advertisements, and the prices charged were fair and reasonable,—Mr. Howard called for the papers in which the advertisements had been inserted, but Mr. Wil son said he had not brought them. Ile had never been asked on any previous occasion for newspapers. His Lordship pointed out that while he had no moral doubt that the advertisements were inserted, yet the jury must be satisfied. Mr. Wilson—l can swear that I inserted them. His Lordship—No doubt ; but the papers must be pro duced. Mr. Bailey, an advertising agent, proved that plaintiff's charges were fair and reasonable. Defendant then said that he had been charged too much. Cross-examined— I will not swear that Mr. Harmer did not say the charge would be £5 ss. per sheet. His Lordship—That ends the case so far as the printing is concerned. A. printer said the charge was excessive; but his Lord ship in summing up said, that this was not a case in which what was a fair charge was the question. If the jury found that there was a specific agreement, plaintiff was entitled to a verdict for the printing. The jury immediately found for the plaintiff for the print ing account, observing that they were sorry they could not give him more, and that the case ought never to have been allowed to come here. THE BURIAL DISCLOSURES AT SHEFFIELD, This inquiry was resumed yesterday. Isaac Howard, the late sexton of St. Philip's burial ground, appeared before the magistrates to answer the charges against him, which, it will be remembered, were to the effect that he had disin terred bodies after burial, as alleged, for the pur pose of disposing of them for dissection. The first evidence gone into related to the case of a child named Edward Charles Shearman, which was interred in St. Philip's burial ground in Sep tember last. On the 4th instant, in consequence of reports, the parents went to the burial ground, and, at some distance from the child's grave, saw a hole or pit in which were a number of coffins lying in a heap, and among them the one in which their son had been buried, with the lid open, and a body in it which they were able to identify as that of their child. Another witness proved seeing several coffins in a stable belonging to Howard, and also seeing him there doing something to one of the bodies in the coffins, apparently as if he were cutting a leg off it with a carving knife. He had also been seen to bring coffins direct from the: grave to the stable, and afterwards to remove something in a barrow. An application was made to have the grave of the child Shearman opened, to see whether the body was there or not, and for this purpose a re mand was granted. MR. DISRAELI'S LEADERSHIP. A good tactician but a bad general, Mr. Disraeli understands everything' ut the art of victory. He can contest a borough, bring his party up to a divi sion in admirable order, and ,keep up their spirits under defeat by vague and magnificent hopes of coming success. But the Conservative reaction never gets farther than the hustings and the agri cultural dinners. The session comes round, with its pitched battles, its Whips, tellers, and division lists ; and, " Oh, what a falling off is there!" A vast amount of cleverness is expended in winning a crushing defeat. The array of Ultra-montanes, high Protestants, discontented Whigs, splenetic Manchester men, and the solid files of squires and country members, melt away under a division, as the Scotch at Flodden, melting like snow before a south wind. If the returns at the Carlton of vic tories gained at the hustings are to be considered authentic —if the phrase " the Conservative reac tion" means anything at all, then why is it that Mr. Disraeli cannot carry the Treasury benches by storm P The reason is, that all his tactics begin and end in finesse. According to all the rules of war the Austrian Generals ought to have gained the victory, and so Mr. Disraeli ought to put Lord Palmerston into a minority. There is nothing Mr. Disraeli does not attend to except the one thing needful. He is as accomplished a linguist as Giuliai, who addressed his army in crossing the Ticino in six different languages. Mr. Disraeli has a word of comfort for all his followers, an ingenious theory by which to reconcile their fighting under one flag. But the Protestant party have resolved to submit to this kind of leadership no longer. Like Hungary, they have stood up for independence, and the Conservative leader, like Francis Joseph, must em * pire broken up.—Dublin University Jfevazitie. conc ili a t e these stubborn Magyars, or see his JUNE 14, 1862. 1 SHIPPING-THIS DAY. 17, LONDON, June 14.—Wind this day at noon—South -Westerly ; strong breeze, and dull weather, with heavy showers of rain.

TWO VOLUNTEERS VOLUNTEERS BLOWN TO PIECE, SHIELDS, FRIDAY. A most horrible occ:rrence took place last night, about 7 o'clock, in the little seaport town of Blyth, on the Northumberland coast, about 11 miles fro this town. After work hours , the Volunteer Ar m ta lery Corps at that port mustered, and una rched down to their new batte r y on the sands at the north side of.the harbour, for p ractice with heavy artillery, and they were followed by a considerable croVa of p e ople to 1.,/itness the practice. The usual number of men were told off. to pi-actice, and several charges had been fired from a 48-poun der, when Sergeant John Manners, a but w cher, anc d a young man named Meggison, a clerk ith Mr. Watts, merchant tafl banker, were ramming the last charge into the gun, 7ben it fircelin the upon line omf They unfortunately we re stai:fiing fire, and horrible to relate, they weld both blown away from the muzzle, and literally torn to i.lpieces. The scene that ensue d was most :mth? volunteers and public being filled with horror, ma n y people fainting with fright, and am ongst t l3 : va several volunteers, two or three having to be carrivd home ill. - As soon the excitement could be all3;vd arid order restored, the remains of the poor fellows' op completelynl e e t e: ) . fy his to se me pieces, obu were gathered together.

Last 'light was the first for practice at the new battery. Word has been sent to the Coroner for South Northumberland, who, it is anticipated, will open an inquest this afternoon. A. PHYSICIAIV'S Si DRY. A touch of romance may be perzeitted to enliven the sober pages of medical record. The brilliant hues of poesy gather round the story of a princess's gratitude to her physician which has beer,: awaking the gobemouches of Paris and London to sywyathe tic enthusiasm. A young' become of rank—a Russ.an princess —who had suddenly become blind from the the effect of exposure to the sunlight upon the snow, so had been sent to Dusseldorf to consultw thidelYe Hofrath, whose reputation as an oculist was in a milder climate , and She was promised recovery spread. was sent to Palermo, - where she improved for some time ; but unde r g oin g a rela p se, a young physician was despatched by the great oculist to take charge of the case for him, and reps)rt progress. His at tention was unremitting, and the result so far suc cessful that finally the lady was ordered to return to Dusseldorf under his care, the eyes being bandaged permanently until her arrival there. At the consul tation her eyes were unbandaged, and delighted with the improvement in her sight, this demonstrative princess " glanced wildly round the assembly, and in o ne moment, despite her still weakenea sigch ht interest seemed to scan every countenance turned with oc towards her own, and then, without a mom erit's hesi tation—as if impelled by a magnetic po wer strOuge r than herself—she walked across the room toward's where the young doctor — her friend and corapanlon —stood, silent and trembling, concealed by the rear and, taking his hand, pressed it to her lips, and for getting all beside gratitude, she gazed upon him, and burst into a passion of tears." We think we have read something a good deal like this before but, perhaps, it is the style only w is an amount of hich is fictitious, while the facts may b e real. There circumstantial detail by whieh the story is authen ticated, as the marriage just celebrated betw een. the parties and the production of the old play of " Valerie" at the Theatre Francais a propos of the event ; and, at least, the story is ben trovato esses, . It is pl e asant to hear occasionally of grateful pr inc and the recital is of course likely to stiazulate young physicians to the most devoted attention --not atten tions —to all their patients. Outbursts of gratitude are really much needed-now-a-dAYB in the relations fear of the publin to their med ical attent:‘ 7 he ants. We they almost as rare they are detifAble.— ,aneet. THE LADY AND HER FOOLITAY. ,art ice. In the Court of Sessi— on, Edinburgh, Mr. W.

The parties were married at St. George's, Hanover-square, London, on 27th September,lBs4, and they thereafter lived at Great Relvina-terrace, L a nsdowne-crescent, Buckingham-terrace, and Ver non House, Dowanhill, Glasgow, and at Rothesay.

The pursuer alleged, And it was proved, that having gone temporarily to' reside at Strone, in the county of Argyle, ul September, 1859, where they remained for eight weeks, the defender committed adultery with David Stewart, then footman in their service.
