711 E NAVY. Captain Alfred P. Ryder, R.N., late of H.M.S. Hero, has been appointed private secretary to the Duke of Somerset, the First Lcrd of the Admiralty, in the place of Capt. John Moore, C. 8., resigned. Capt. Ryder will enter on his new duties this week. In accordance With Admiralty directions received at Chatham two of Kisbee's new life buoys Lre to be supplied to .ach ship in commission. CPlaying the best qualities of the Armstrong F 2. pounder—the acknowledged best specime', of the breech-loading Armstrong gun, At the cc nclusion of the practice from the 12-pounders Major-Gen, St. George, Col. Bingham, Col. Warde, Capt. Dyer, and other officers, proceeded to Lump , Fort, where three shots each were fired from two 110-pounder Armstrong guns, but the efficiency of the guns was in no other way tested as breech-loading ordnance. The practice made throughout was good, but nu merous instances occurred where the shells burst half way to the target, and some close to the muzzle of the gun, while there were many illustrations of " stripping" of the zinc coating. There was also great difficulty experienced in getting the screws home against the back of the vent pieces towards the close of the firing. A court martial assembled on Monday on board the flagship Royal Adelaide in Hamoaze, Plymouth, to try Mr. Wm. Braving, second-class assistint en.gineer, of the Ajax, on a charge of having forged ar, order, dated Dublin, Oct. 20, 1862, for £3O, in favour of John Roberts. which order was counter signed by himself. There were several minor charges. The court was presided over by Capt. L. G. Heath, late H.M.S. Cambridge, and Mr. Wm. E stlake was Deputy Judge-Advocate. The pri soner was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment at Exeter, and to be dismissed her Majesty's service. The following promotions were made on Mon day :--Commander Henry F.Nl‘Killop, Commander J.

Last night Mr. Spurgeon gave an entertainment in the form of a lecture, illustrated by dissolving views, and enlivened by the vocal efforts of a chorus of 600 children, on the subject of the miracles of faith in modern times. The sp€cial object was to benefit the funds of the Band of Hope Union, and the influence of that very numerous body, the presence of the Earl of Shaftesbury, who was the president of the evening, Mr. Layard, M.P., who occupied a prominent position on the platform, the opportunity of hearing Mr. Spurgeon, combined with the various other attractions provided, proved sufficient to fill the Tabernacle in every part; and seeing that the charge for admission ranged from 6d. to 2s. 6d., must have added as materially to the resources of the total abstinence principle, as did the celebrated Gorilla lecture, which was given in the same place and for the same object, in October of last year. After a short introductory prayer from the rev. lecturer, The CHAIRMAN offered a few remarks in expression of the pleasure he felt in contributing in any way he could to the success of the movement in which the Baud of Hope was engaged. Mr. SPURGEON then commenced his lecture, ob serving that he was not about to treat of the lying miracles of Rome or the pretended miracles of mo dern impostors, but he was about to speak of real bona fide miracles. Referring to Johnson—which was held as an infallible authority by some people just now—he found that the meaning of miracle was a wonder—something that man could not do of 4 , - ---- his own power. The miracles he had to speak In consequence of the frequent complaints of the of were those which had been wrought by prayer loss of - medical comforts and Government stores and faith; miracles that were full of philanthropy, placed on board vessels conveying troops to and brimfull of peace and goodwill amongst men and from India and China, a general order has been is- glory to God.

The only use he could imagine for pulpits was to remind the people of their latter end by keeping before their eyes the whole time of the service a man half buried in a wooden box. He thought they must have been invented for the benefit of some one whose legs were deformed. (Laughter.) He believed the power of oratory lay very much in the legs, and he liked to see a man when preach ing walk about, as Harmes did, and roar out the truth like a lion. The last instanceof miracle work ing he would quote was that of George Muller, of Bristol, who, from equally small beginnings, estab lished first the Orphan House at Bristol, and who since 1832 had built three orphan houses, at a cost of between £60,000 and £70,000, and in which were maintained 1,150 orphans, at an annual ex penditure of £B,OOO. Besides this be supported, more or less, 100 missionaries, at the annual cost of £5,273, and had received since 1832 more than £200,000 in voluntary subscriptions, sent to him from all parts of the earth. When they saw these orphan children going through the streets of Bris tol they might ask the infidel what he made of it, when they saw the orphan houses they might ask the sceptic what he thought of it. The only test of anything was to put it to the proof, and if you asked of God in prayer, and he answered that prayer, what greater proof could they have that there was a God? Tbese miracles he had called their atten tion to proved that God was not a mere empty abstraction above the stars, but a very God, able and willing to bless the services of man, and always ready to make good his promise to man. After the lecture, the dissolving views, illustrat ing the persons and scenes the lecturer had de scribed, were exhibited, and the proceedings termi nated by a vote of thanks to the chairman, moved by Mr. Layard, M.P., and seconded by Mr. W. J. Haynes. poisoning in June, my mistress made me an offer while we were in the kitchen together. ghe began by saying that she was very much annoyed at the way in which her father-in-law's family behaved to her, and added that she wanted to do something ] would I assist her in accomplishing it. I asked her what it was, and she replied that "if she mixed up something for me" would I take it and put it into the flour-bin on Bishop-hill, and she would not mind giving me a £5-note if it proved effectual. I answered her that I would not do it for the world. Mrs. Cooke then said if I would not assist her she would not think any more about it ; neither was I to say anything about it. After the poisoning in June last Mrs. Cooke came down to me in the kit chen, and said it was a good job she had nothing to do with it ; and she also added at that time that Mr. Cooke's family were not well liked, and they had a deal of enemies. After this evidence had been heard, the magis trate's clerk asked—Have you anything to say ? Prisoner—l am perfectly innocent, sir. The Lnrd Mayor then remanded the prisoner until Moi , day next, to give the police an opportu nity to pursue their investigations. The prisoner would be allowed to go out of custody on finding two sureties for £lOO each. _ • _ 14'e may add that the prisoner is young, very ladylike and prepossessing in appearance, and is rather below the common stature. During the examination she did not seem much impressed with the serious position in which she was placed, although her behaviour was perfectly quiet and modest. She answered all questions put to her firmly and unhesitatingly. The utmost excitement has been created in York by the event, and the court was crowded to excess. THE « MORNING CHRoNICLE" AND THE _FRENCH GOVERNMENT. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—Nov. 25. GLOVER V. CCUNT DE PERSIGNY AND M. BILLAULT This case came before the Court on a questio❑ of proceeding against foreigners by a British subjeet in the Eng lish courts under the Common Law Pro- cedure Act, 1854. Mr. Gray on Saturday obtained - - a rule to set aside an order ut Mr. Justice Crompton, so as to restore an order made by Mr. Justice Mel lor, to allow the plaintiff to proceed in the action. It appeared that the plaintiff, Mr. Sergeant Glover, was lately proprietor of the Morning Chronicle, and he brought an action against the eminent French statesmen, Count de Persigny and M. Billault, to recover the sum of £14,000 for work done and money expended by him in conducting the Morn ing Chronicle, the Morning News, end the Evening Journal, and for writing and translating from the French, and printing in the J, orning Chronicle certain articles, and also in writing certain other articles to be translated into the French language, for inser- tion and publication in the Illoniteur, Constitutionnel, &c. The Count de Persigny had appeared to the action, but M. Billault had not been served ; and as Fersonal service could not be effected upon him the plaintiff had made an application before Mr. Justice Mellor at chambers for leave to proceed as if such service had been effected. The application was made on an affidavit by the plaintiff that the work had been done and the moneys expended laid out in England, and that the cause of action arose in this country ; that both the defendants resided out of the jurisdiction, in Paris; and that the co defendant, Billault, could not be personally served, but had knowledge of the proceedings. There was no dispute as to the knowledge of the proceedings, but it arose on the question whether the cause of action arose within the jurisdiction of this court. The learned judge made an order for the continuance of the proceedings as if service had been effected upon the co-defendant. M. Billault then caused an application to be made to Mr. Jus tice Crompton at chambers to set aside that order, on M. Billault's affidavit that he never owed the alleged debt, and that he had never, verbally or in writing, made or authorised the piaintiff, or any one, to make on his behalf any contract for the claim set up in the declaration, and that the claim was wholly without foundation ; that he had never been in England, and that the cause of action, if any, did not arise within the jurisdiction. Upon that the learned judge set aside Mr. Justice Mellor's order. Mr. Gray, when he moved on Saturday, did so on an affidavit made by Mr. Sergeant Glover that the claim was for articles inserted in the Morning Chronicle and other papers on the order and authority of the defendants through their agents in this country, and afterwards confirmed and recognised by M. Billault in an interview in Paris with the plaintiff. The whole matter was transacted in this country by agents, and the facts showed that the cause of action arose in this country, The rule came on to-day for argument. Mr. Hodgson showed cause against the rule; Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., and Mr. Gray supported it. Mr. Hodgson said this Was a rule calling on M. Billault, the eminent French statesman, and a mem ber of the government, to show cause why an order made by Mr. Justice Crompton, on the 10th of July last, should not be set aside, The order was one rescinding a prior one made by Mr. Justice Mellor, which gave leave .to the plaintiff to proceed against the defendant, who was a foreigner residing out of the country. Mr. Justice Mellor reminded the learned counsel that the application before him was ex parte. All parties, nowever, appeared by affidavits before Mr. Justice Cr. rnpton. Mr. Hodgson said that w as so. Mr. Justice Blackburn said Mr. Justice Cromp ton's order was made on certain particulars before him and without prejudice to its being again brought on on fresh particulars, That was mate rial, because he understood this application was made on materials and particulars not before Mr. Justice Crompton. Mr. Hodgson said—Yes; and with the permission of the Court he would state what had been done in the case up to that point. It appeared that Count de Parsigny came to this country to visit the Ex hibition after proceedings had commenced, and ho thought it better to appear, or a similar applica cation would have been made by him. Mr. Jus tice Mellor's order required the plaintiff to serve M. Billault with a copy of the order, requiring him to plead to the declaration within sixteen days. The order was accordingly left at M. Billault's residence in Paris, on the 17th June, and as that was after the last day of term it was impossible for the defendant then to come before the Court. Consequently a sum mons was taken out, and all parties went before a learned judge at chambers. Having detailed what took place there, the learned counsel said their lord ships had to consider what right or authority the plaintiff had for proceeding against the defendant, who was a foreigner, and without the jurisdiction of the court. By the 19th section of the Common Law Procedure Act it was not necessary to serve a copy of the writ, but a plaintiff was called upon to serve the particulars of demand in such a case on the de fendant, and afterwards to go before a judge at Chambers or to the Court and satisfy him or them whichever application was made, that there was a cause of action arising within the jurisdiction of the Court. The defendant complained that the plain tiff in his affidavit used before Mr. Justice Mellor did not disclose the cause of action, or that it arose within the jurisdiction of the Court. The affidavit was dated the 10th of June, 1862, and was as follows That the work done, and materials provided, and money paid, an account of which is comprised in the particulars of demand in this case, were se verally done, provided, and paid for the defendant in England, and within the jurisdiction of this honourable Court. "'That the cause of action in this case arose in England and wholly within the jurisdiction of the Court. " That the above -named Count Fialin de Per signy, and Auguste Adolphe Marie Billault, and Louis Collet Meygret aro foreigners, and resident out of the jurisdiction of the Court." Now his argument before Mr. Justice Crompton was that it did not disclose a cause of action, because the words " at the request of the defendant" were omitted. The Lord Chief Justice asked what were the par ticulars of the demand. Mr. Hodgson said the particulars of demand were dated from the 9th May, 1857, to the 23d October, 1858, and were " for work and labour, and mate rials provided, and money paid for the defendants at their request in and about the 'hinting and con ducting certain newspaperki called the Morning Chronicle, and two other newspapers, the Morning News and the Evening Journal, and in and about the writing and translating iron the French lan guage certain articles in the said Morning Chronicle and two other newspapers, for and on behalf of the defendants, and at their request ; and in and about the writing and translating from the French, and printing and publishing certain other articles in the said Morning Chronicle and other two news papers, for and on behalf of the defendants, for the purpose of their being translated into the French language, and inserted and published in certain French newspapers galled. the Moniteur, the Constitutionnel, the Pays, and certain other French newspapers, at the value of £BOO per month—total £14,000. The plaintiff will seek to recover the amount in the declaration on the account stated, and damages for loss sus tained in the depreciated value of the above-men tioned London newspapers in fulfiiment of the con tract entered into between himself and the defen dants." (Laughter.) Mr. Justice Wightman —Are these the particulars referred to in the affidavit ? Mr. Hodgson—For doing A ork comprised in those particulars of demand. The Lord Chief Justice—And when you refer to that you say that it is work done at the request of the defendants ? Mr. Hodgson said the plaintiff did not undertake to say that it was work undertaken for them, but that he did it for them. The affidavits ought to state that the work was done at the request of the defendants, either expressly or implied; but the plaintiff only says that he did the work comprised in the particulars of demand. The Lord Chief Justice—At the instance of the defendant ? Mr. Justice Wightman said the only question was whether the learned judge at chambers was satisfied that the affidavit and particulars of demand were sufficient. Mr. Hodgson said they ought to show the cause of action which they embraced. These, however, showed none. They only showed that certain work comprised in the particulars of demand was done. The Lord Chief Justice—The affidavits states that the action is brought for the work done—that is specified in the particulars of demand. Mr. Hodgson submitted that it was not so. It stated that the work was done; but not that the action was brought for work and labour done at the request of the defendants. The Lord Chief Justice—ls that not necessarily implied ? Mr. Hodgson said the plaintiff carefully guarded himself against that. The act required that the whole cause of action should arise in this country, but from the affidavits it appeared that only a por tion of it arose within the jurisdiction of the Court. Mr. Justice Wightman—ls it not a question that the judge at chambers has to satisfy himself about? The Lord Chief Justice—lt is a proceeding that does not require an affidavit to be drawn like a piece of pleading. If the judge is satisfied on the whole that is sufficient. Mr. Hodgson still contended that the affidavit showed no cause of action. The answer to the plain tiff's affidavit was that the defendant, M. Billault, altogether and entirely denied ever having made, either verbally or in writing, or having authorised either of the other defendants to make, such con tract for him. The learned counsel then read the following affidavit made by M. Billault, dated the 7th July, 1862 ; " I altogether and entirely deny ever having made, either verbally or in writing, or ever having authorised the other defendants, or either of them, or any other person, to make on my behalf any con tract or agreement to the purport or effect alleged in the declaration, or the particulars of demand, or any part thereof. That the claim made by the plain tiff is, as far as I am concerned, altogether without any foundation whatever. " I have never been in England, and I say that the cause of action, if any, in this case did not arise within the jurisdiction of the Court." The plaintiff made another affidavit, dated the 24th July, 1862, and as follows : "I ,William Glover, of 29 Great Coram-street, in the county of Middlesex, gentleman, the above named plaintiff, make oath and say as follows :—ln the year 1856 and 1857 persons representing them selves to me as the friends and employes of the said M. Billault, then Minister of the Interior of the French Government, and who I verily believe were the employes of the said M. Billault, and were act ing with his knowledge and sanction, and by his instruction, as his agents, in such negotiations, had divers interviews with me in London, and they, as acting on behalf of the said defendant, and I on my behalf, did mutually agree that the newspapers ca►led respectively the Morning Chronicle, the Morning .News, and Evening Journal, should be employed as the organs of the said defendant, as such minister of the Interior of the French Govern ment in England. " That at divers times in the years 1856 and 1857 I proceeded to Paris and had divers interviews in the year 1857 with the said M. Billault, who did then acknowledge and recognise the authority and employment of the persons referred to in the first paragraph of thie affidavit in making the agree ment mentioned in the declaration and particulars of demand in this action. "M. Albert Buoard, who was then the private secretary of the said M. Billault, frequently in the year 1857, at the request and by the directions and with the authority, as I verily believe, and in the name of the said defendant, gave instructions to me verbally and in writing for the purpose of having leading articles written, inserted, and published in the Morning Chronicle newspaper on behalf of and in the interest of and to further the views and objects of the said defendant, M. Billault, and of the French Government, of which the defen dant was then as before mentioned Minister of the Interior. " That the persons hereinbefore referred to, with the sanction and by the authority, as I believe, of the defendants, and especially of the defendant Bil lault, wrote and for warded numerous letters and communications to me at my then residence in Cavendish-square and at the office of the said Morning Chronicle newspaper in the Strand, both places being in the county of Middlesex and within the jurisdiction of the Court, for the purpose of car rying out the agreement hereinbefore mentioned, and of aiding, abetting, and assisting the objects and views of the said M. Billault, &c." The learned counsel proceeded to urge that this affidavit was insufficient. He contended that the Plaintiff should have stated the names of the per sons described as M. Billault's agents. The Lord Chief Justice—The plaintiff swears positively that when in Paris he saw M. Billault, and that he recognised these parties as his agents. The Court cannot try that question. Mr. Hodgson said that he asked the Court to assume that the persons whom the plaintiff repre sented to be M. Billault's agents, especially as he did not name them, were not so, on the denial of the Minister of the Interior of the French Empire that he never did employ any one for the purposes elleged by the plaintiff. That Mr. Glover was mistaken in saying that these persons, whoever they were, were M, Billault's agents. '[he Lord Chief Justice—That implies that the plaintiff states what is untrue, in saying that M. Billault recognised them as his agents. Mr. Justice Blackburn—l should have been dis posed to go along with you, except that by doing so we should be saying we should convict M. Bil lault of perjury relative to what took place at that personal interview. The Lord Chief Justice—Or Mr. Sergeant Glover. Mr. Hodgson said that Mr. Glover only went so far in his affidavit as to state that he " verily be- Heves." The Lord Chief J ustice—We must not deal with the matter by lines and paragraphs, but we TOUSt take the whole of the affidavits together into our consideration. Mr. Hodgson said it was necessary for the plain tiff to establish that, besides a cause of action, it THE WALKER COLLIERY BXPLOSION. During Sunday night and the early part of Mon day the greater nnmhpr of the carcasses of the horses were got out of the pit. They were very much in jured, and some of them presented a shocking ap pearance. No examination of the pit has as yet been made to ascertain the cause of the accident, but it will no doubt be effected before the inquest is held. Twelve of the deceased were buried on Mon day afternoon, in the churchyard adjoining Walker Church, by the Rev. C. Thompson, assisted by the Revs. W. Parker, E, Shortt, and S. Atkinson, of Newcastle. fwo more of the bodies were taken to Benton Churchyard for interment, and the remain ing two were interred yesterday morning. There were a number of spectators present to witness the interment of the unfortunate men at 'Walker. The Rev. C, Thompson, the respected incumbent of Walker, visited the families of the deceased on Saturday. He found an almost universal feeling of resignation amongst the bereaved, acid there was a general expression of thankfulness that the calamity was no worse. It appears that nearly all the men killed were old sober " hands," while most of them were pious and devout men. One of them, a deputy, called Martin Fartkin, engaged in prayer with his wife just before leaving for the last time and prayed that if they were never to meet again in time, they might meet again in eternity. Mr. Thompson has ascertained that there are eight widows, and as the sum which they may receive from the owners of the colliery will be in sufficient for the support of themselves and their families, their sad case is commended to the charitable. THE INQUEST. The inquest upon the bodies of the sixteen men and boys was opened on Monday afternoon, at the Railway Hotel, Walker, by Stephen Reed, Esq., the coroner for the southern division of the county of Northumberland. The Coroner, in addressing the jury, said—l am very sorry to require your assistance upon this very melancholy loss of life at Walker Colliery. It is one of those accidents that too frequently occur, and the difficulty is to come at the cause or origin of the accident. I think Walker Pit is one of the very last pits that I should have expected to have been called to perform such a duty at. It is now three years since I had to attend any death at this colliery by accident—a circumstance which I attri bute, in a great measure, to the perfect way in which the colliery is managed, and the great care tat en by the viewer, deputy viewer, overman, deputy overmen, and pitmen themselves these things are generally of a very mysterious character, and it is very difficult to get at their origin, though I have no doubt that in the present case it will be found to have been entirely accidental ; however, it will be for you to judge when you hear all the evidence. It will be very satisfactory if you can make up your minds as to how, and by what means, the accident occurred. I have no further remarks to make to you on the present occasion, and as the inquiry will, perhaps, extend to more than one day, I propose, if it suits your convenience, to adjourn the inquest till next Thursday, at ten o'clock, and I hope you will be able to get through at one sitting. In the meantime I shall have all the witnesses marshalled, so that they shall come before you in order. As Thursday suited the convenience of most of the jurors, the inquest was accordingly adjourned until that date. Before the jurors were sworn, they were taken round for the purpose of inspecting the various bodies of the men. 711 E RECENT POISONING CASE IN YORK All the persons in the family of Mr. Cooke, op tician, York, who, we stated in Saturday's impres sion, had partaken of something for dinner, which had caused them to be ill, have recovered. It appears that an apple dumpling and mince pie, of which the family had eaten, contained poison. An timony was mentioned in our former report; and it was thought at the time, from the symptoms which were exhibited, that either antimony or arsenic had been used. The analysis, however, of a portion of mince pie and a small quantity of flour, by Mr. Greener, has clearly proved that the flour contained a considerable quantity of arsenic, and quite suffi cient to produce a fatal effect. From information received the chief constable arrested on the charge of administering poison to the Cooke family, Mrs. Maria Edwin Cooke, wife of Mr. Cooke's eldest son, who lived apart from the rest of the family, keeping a watch maker's and optician's shop in Covey-street. The prisoner was brought up on Tuesday at the Guildhall, before the Lord Mayor, for exami nation, on the charge of having administered arsenic to Mr. and Mrs. Cooke, the three sons and a daughter. The prisoner was unattended by any ;legal adviser. Mr. T. S. Noble prosecuted, and called the following evidence : W. Reed, Esq., surgeon, York, proved having attended the family on three distinct occasions, when they were suffering from the effects of poi soning by arsenic, or some other acrid poison. On the last occasion of poisoning precisely the same train of symptoms presented themselves as had appeared on the two previous occasions. Mr. Chief Constable Haley, said—l attended at Mr. Cooke's house on Bishop -hill on Saturday last, when I made an examination of the premises, and from them took possession of various articles of food, which I placed in the hands of Dr. Procter for analysis. That gentleman has not yet completed the analysis of all the food I sent him. From in formation I received I apprehended the prisoner at her residence, Covey-street, yesterday, about half past one o'clock. When 1 told her what she was accused of she said, " I am quite innocent of the charge." I then took her to the police station. I have since made an examination of the premises where the poisoning took place, and I noticed the flour bin was placed in a position easy of access to any one not resident in the house. I have now to ask the magistrates for a remand, as I believe be fore next Monday I shall be able to obtain further evidence. Alice Clancey said—l went to live with the pri soner, Mrs. E. Cooke, on Jan. 20 last, and I con tinued to li ve th ere un til a b ou t s i x wee k s ago. About s P/ing, some six or seven weeks before the first was one arising within the jurisdiction of the Court. He thought it must be taken that these men falsely professed themselves to be NI Billault's N gents. The Lord ChiefJustice—We cannot do that. Mr. Justice Blackburn—Or, r tther, that for this purpose they truly professed to be so. The Lord Chief Justice—That they professed to be so; for we have the statement of Mr. Sergeant Glover that he learnt from M. Billault that their representations were true. M. Billault may be prepared to contradict it. At present we cannot try that question. By so doing you are really ask ing us to try the case. Mr. Hodgson said that he was trying to show that the cause of action did not arise within the jurisdiction of the Court, and he would call their attention to another affidavit. If the plaintiff founded his action on the ratification of the agency at Paris by M. Billault, there was but a partial contract in this country, and it was essential to the maintenance of the action that it arose solely in this country. The Lard Chief Justice—The plaintiff does not rely on the ratification at Paris in that sense. He says certain persons came over here armed with authority to make a contract, and they made one with him, and he refers to what took place in his personal interview with M. Billault in Paris to show that they were authorised agents. Mr. Hodgson said he should ask their lordships to infer that whatever these persons professed to be, they in reality were not authorised agents. The Lord Chief Justice—We cannot make any difference between an English subject and a French man, however high the position of the latter may be. In this case we have a sergeant-at-law stating one thing, and a minister of the French Empire another. Mr. Hodgson said—Certainly not; but here was the distinct denial of a gentleman holding the high position of the Minister of the Interior of France. The Lord Chief Justice—And we have also the distinct affirmation, on the other side, of Mr. Ser geant Glover. Mr. Hodgson submitted that the statement of one was not so distinct and emphatic as the other. Mr. Justice Blackburn—We must treat M. Bil lault as we would treat Lord Palmerston or any other British subject. The Lord Chief Justice—You have repeated, I think, six times in the course of this motiun that M. Billault is the Minister of the Interior of France, but I do not know for what purpose. Mr. Hodgson said he only mentioned it to show that a gentleman holding that high position was not likely to deny on oath what was true. The Lord Chief Justice—And I hope no English sergeant-at-law would do so. Why assume that • one side is more likely to do so more than the othe. ? Mr. Hodgson said that the persons said to be agents having acted without authority, the plaintiff must proceed on the ratification. With regard to that there might be two answers. The Lord Chief Justice—But he does not put it on the ratification. Mr. Hodgson said he would call their lordships' attention to an affidavit made by M. Billault, dated 27th November, 1862, which was as follows : " That I have read the affidavit of the above named plaintiff sworn the 24th of July, 1862. " That I did not employ or authorise any person in the 3 ears 1856 and 1857, or at eny time to agree in my behalf as mentioned in the first paragraph of the plaintiffs said affidavit. "That I never heard from the plaintiff or any other person that the said persons referred to in the first paragraph of the plaintiff's agreement had made the agreement mentioned in the declaration and particulars of demand in this action, as stated in the second paragraph of the plaintiff's affidavit ; that I have no idea who the said persons are, and that, if any such alleged agreement had been mentioned to me I should energetically have disavowed it. " That it is possible, that I do not recollect it, that in 1857, M. Albert Bouard, mentioned in the third paragraph, may have officiously given to the plaintiff, as to the gentlemen of other foreign news papers, some indications for his newspaper, which the plaintiff was incessantly and gratuitously plac ing at the disposal of the French Government of which I was a member, but neither I nor the said Albert Bouard ever heard of any agreement, as al leged by the plaintiff. " That I have no knowledge that any persons have written or forwarded to the plaintiff numerous letters and communications for the purpose of car rying out the agreement hereinbefore mentioned, and of aiding and abetting and assisting the ob jects and views of me, the said deponent, as stated in the fourth paragraph of the plaintiff's affidavit, and I have never authorised or sanctioned the same being done." Their lordships would see that M. Billault gave an emphatic denial to Mr. Glover's statement, and it was for their lordships to say if this was a cause of action arising within the jurisdiction of the Court. The Lord Chief Justice—To have a cause of ac tion it must be within the jurisdiction of the Court, and the parties who were here armed with M. Bil ault's authority were within the jurisdiction of the Court. Mr. Hodgson again suggested that if there was any jurisdiction it was within the Court of Paris. The Lord Chief Justice—No, not ratified. He recognised them as his agents. Mr. Hodgson still submitted that it amounted to a ratification. Suppose they were not agents. Mr. Justice Blackburn—He has thought proper to recognise them, and it is an essential part of the cause of action. Mr. Justice Mellor—The interview at Paris is used as an adoption of the original contract in Eng land. The Lord Chief Justice—And then it became a contract in England, and the cause of action the fulfilment of the contract. Mr. Hodgson still urged there was no cause of action, and after some further remarks The Lord Chief Justice, without calling on the other side, said--The rule must be made absolute. We are really asked by the learned counsel for the defendant to try this cause, and not to say whether under the act of parliament a British subject may proceed against a French subject, where it has been shown to our satisfaction that the contract was made in this country, and that the cause of action arose here. Upon the service of the process of the Court upon a foreigner residing out of the country the legislature has thought proper to pass an en actment, the propriety or non-propriety of which it is not for us to question. All that we have to de cide is whether, on the affidavits, there was suffi cient to show the learned judge who heard the case at chambers that the cause of action arose in this country. On the affidavits some technical objec tions have been made, but on the whole it appears to me that he was right in holding that a sufficient prima facie case had been made to show that the cause of action arose in this country. The de fendant, on being served with the notice, has a right to come here and show, if he can, that the pro ceeding is an abuse of the process of the Court, and that there is no pretence for saying there is any cause of action arising within the jurisdiction of the Court, and that the proceedings, being vexatious, ought to be set aside. If it had appeared on the affidavits that there was no conflicting testimony we should have given effect to the defendant's re presentations, and we should have considered that He so acte ha d the first learned judge acted right l y . on the materials that were befo re him ; but these other affidavits have since been produced, stating that certain persons come to this country and en.• tered into a contract with the plaintiff in the name of M. liillault, for certain services to he rendered in this country by him as the proprietor of certain portions of the public press ; and he states that although at first he assumed the fact of their being M. Billault's agents, that afterwards, in an inter view with that gentleman he acknowledged these parties had been clothedwithauthor deniesity in this mat t e r as his agents.it He, however,; and no doubt upon the view a jury may eventually, take Glover o u l n ao vl the yer, t hi ciseu decisionestin o right o that of f fact tth he e csea s between epwarit the parties edsepwe enrd partiest the e agents of M. Billault, and that he afterwards ad mitted and acknowledged that they were his agents, then the work, and labour, and services having been rendered, and as there is no ohjeeion in point of law to such a contract, the contrict us made out is against NI. Billault. Not only was there a con tract made in this country, but also a cause of action within the jurisdiction of this Court. It all depends upon the evidence to be adduced before a jury► it being for a jury to determine that question and not this Court, by its interposition in a summary man ner, in the way asked for on the part of M. Billault before Mr. Justice Crompton. I think, therefore, that with the materials before us we cannot stop this case from going to a trial. Mr. Justice Cromp ton was right on the materials that were laid before him in setting aside Mr. Justice Mellor's order,. which was made on other affidavits. The other learned judges concurred. Rule made absolute. Mr. Hodgson asked what time► would be allowed the defendant to plead. Mr. M. Chambers said about a fortnight. 7HE BURGLARY IN DEBBYSHIRE• --- CHAPEL-EN-LE-FRITH, TUESDAY. Yesterday (Monday) Matthew Depledge was brought before Capt. Nield and Mr. Slack, olaarged with being concerned in the burglary on the pre mises of Mr. Norman, of Whaley-bridge. Mrs. Norman, in reply to questions put by Mr.- Fox, the chief constable, said the prisoner was about the size of the man who stood by the window, and he wore a velveteen coat. The " jemmy" pro duced was like the one used by the man who was in the room; it had something on the end, but she could not say it was a ring. She did not think the prisoner Matthew Depledge was the man she saw in the room. He was not so tall. He resembled one of the men witness saw outside of the window , who had on a velveteen coat. Witness was in the habit of having a fire in her bedroom, and there was a fire in it on the night of the burglary. It had gone out, however, at the time. Witness heard the noise downstairs. Left her infant in bed with her husband, first having placed a chair against the bed, to keep the child safe. Should have awakened her husband if she had thought anyone was in the house, It was her general rule to take pistols down stairs with her in the night when she bad occasion to get up or felt alarmed. The revolver was always loaded, also two double-barrelled pistols as well. From the time she heard the noise in the house she had to partly dress herself and lay her child safe, which occupied about five minutes. The man in the room held a c andle in his left hand, and it went out when witness fired but she could then see everything by the moonlight . Saw the jemmy in his hand, and also the two men standing outside the window, by th e li g ht of the candle, as it was burning only one yard from thew. NV hen the robbers left the window witness ran to it to see what direction they took, which was toward s Whaley. She then ran upstairs and told her hus' band. Scarcely a minute elapsed from the time they drew the man through the window till she went to look after them. Knew the man who was between the other two to be the man who was in the rootn by the handkerchief he wore, but could not s a l w hether or not he was walking by himself or stir ported by the other two. Did not hear any con versation between the men as they went off. Wit ness and her husband came downstairs together after the men had gone. When w i t ness fired the pistol she was holding the door open with her left arm and the side of her left foot. The first time the cap missed fire; the second time, in order to secure a steady aim, she rested t he revolver on her lel wrist, and fired. The ba ll mi g ht have passe' through the window from the p lace she fired at. Oil Tuesday evening, before the burglary, at 5 o'cloat she saw a man come up to the window and look ie. He looked downwards. Witness could not tell laihl again. When the servant maid went to close the shutters the same evening, she told Witness the re wa s w as something which prevented t hem p ro p e closing. Witness said, " Never mind ; we must have them repaired to-morrow." A stone was after ° wards found in the socket in the window-sill, where the shutters bolted, and this prevented their clo sing' Henry Hilton, detective inspector, said that fro information received on the 21 st of November ir proceeded to Macclesfield, and went to a house In Windmill-row, where he found the prisoner, Matthew Depledge, and asked him wh en he Whaleyo' at Whaley. He replied, " I have not be en to since a week last Sunday." Witness then told him he must consider himself his prisoner, as a nswer: ing to the description of the man who, with tv.irf others, broke into Mr. Norman's house. He este, "I don't know a Mr. Norman." Witness then searched the house and found the jemmy, with 6 ring at the end, now produc ed. On comparing the marks made on the shutter and the cupboard wit the jemmy, he found that they corresponded. Kr took the prisoner on the following morning t o Macclesfield lock-up. When conveyhig the prisone r , to Whaley, he said, " Me and Jem Stanny and 13i!' Cope slept in Whaley on Sunday night, an d the f oie lowing morning we left for Macclesfield. The heath day we all three went to Allmock-moore for hea!' n _ for making brooms, and we stayed there until tn 7) following Thursday, when Cope left us to goner Manchester, and we went to Macclesfield." Pr told the detective that he would find Co p e at Da a r ; cheater selling brooms; he did not know Wh e .„, Stanny was, as there was a warrant out a gainst 13 ' for poaching. Superintendent Shaw said that the prisoner, gut), being brought to the lock-up, had told him that 0 , was in Whaley on the Monday night and the Thtl day day night, but not on the Tuesday or Wednes" night. The prisoner was then remanded. COUNTRY MA BAL. A S. ------- LIVERPOOL—TUESDAY.an At our market to-day there was a good attendan ce, Wag a fair amount of business transacted.
