Ehlers, which left New York on the 14th inst., arrived at Cowes at 2 p.m., and went on to Hamburg after transshipping mails, &c., for this port. She brings 643,341 dols. for England, and 101,000 dols. for France. The Saxonia has had light winds throughout the passage, and on the 18th, in lat. 42 30 N., long. 52, she passed some icebergs. The following vessels were spoken on the voyage :—June 19, in lat. 43 45 N., long. 46 45 W., the British ship Gorilla, steer ing westward, and the schooner Moore, steering eastward ; 19th, at 5 p.m., in lat. 44 10 N., long. ,45 20 W., the screw steamer Bremen, bound hence for New York ; 23d, in lat. 49 52 N., long. 21 W ., a Prussian barque, with flag No. 45, and the word • Barth" beneath. In the Senate at Washington, on the 13th, the B ill appropriating 150,000 dols. for new postal routes was passed. A Bill to carry into effect the treaty recently negotiated with Great Britain re. lating to the Slave Trade, was reported from the Committee on Foreign Relations. The House Bill prescribing an oath of office, &c , was debated, but not acted upon. The Naval Appropriation Bill was considered, and a number of amendments were adopted. A long debate occurred regarding the location of the Nava). Academy, which resulted in an understanding that the permanent place for it will be at Annapolis. The Bill was not disposed of when the Senate adjourned for want of a quorum. In the House, the Senate Bill, appropriating 100,000 dols. to enable the Secretary of the Navy to raise sunken vessels, was passed. The joint re solution of thanks to Lieurenant Morris and the other officers and men of the Cumberland was passed. The Committee on Foreign Affairs reported that no exigency seemed to exist requiring the in terposition of the American Government on behalf of the suffering people of Ireland. The Bill to secure the more prompt payment of officers and volunteers was passed. The Senate Bill to increase the medical department of the volunteer service wa s passed, with an amendment abolishing brigade surgeons, and placing them on an equal footi ng with army surgeons. General Prim was entertained at a grand banquet at Delmonico's, at New York, on the evening of the 13th inst., by the Spanish residents of the city. About 60 were present, including the following offi cial personages :—Tassara, the Spanish Minister ; Barreda, the Prussian Minister ; Romero, the Mexi can Minister ; Montufar, the Minister of San Salva dor; Yrisarri, the Minister of Guatemala, General Milan de Bosch, and a number of General Prim's * Aides, the officers of the Spanish vessel Ulloa, Comacho, the Consul of Venezuela ; the Consuls of Spain, San Salvador, Peru, Mexico, and the son of Gen. Paez. The toasts were, "The Queen,"" Gene ral Prim," " Perpetual peace between Spain and the Spanish-American Republics and the Spanish Army and Navy." The spirit of the assemblage was that of thorough fraternisation between Spaniards in the Old and the New Worlds. General Prim, in the course of a spirited and eloquent speech, gave the heartiest endorsement to this spirit of fraternisation. Many people, he said, believed that they went to Mexico with motives of oppression and conquest. But never was there, in his Queen or his country, from the time the expedition was first thought of, the least idea of destroying the independence of Mexico. Never—because she would be the first to respect, and cause to be respected, the liberties of Mexico. The Queen, as the first citizen of Spain, was first in fulfilling this programme. After grace ful reference to the compliments paid him by Messrs. Tassara, Comacho, and Barril, he said that Spain would see all the treaties respected in Mexico, and when one of the three allied nations varied the satisfaction she demanded, Spain withdrew, because the basis of the Convention was broken—the designs of the Queen and the policy of the Government were no longer being carried out. The Queen had ap proved his conduct, because it was according to the letter and spirit of the Convention, and he was glad to be thus greeted by his fellow-countrymen on his withdrawal. In conclusion, with hearty wishes for the speedy restoration of peace to the United States, he proposed " The prosperity of the United States and the success of her army." The assemblage broke up with vivas for General Prim. It was un derstood that the General was to leave .New York on the 14th inst., in the Ulloa steamer for Lisbon. It is stated from Washington that Lord Lyons had an audience of President Lincoln on the 13th inst. to take leave, and was to sail for England in the Persia steamer on the 18th, to be absent two months. A despatch of the 13th from Washington says : " Advices of the latest dates, received at the War Department, indicate quiet in the Valley of the Shenandoah. Nothing of public interest had tran spired at General M'Clellan's headquarters to-day. No later news had been received from the West. "By an order from the Secretary of War, the Department of the Mississippi is extended so as to include the whole of the States of Tennessee and Kentucky. All the officers on duty in these States will report to Major-General Halleck. The Moun tain Department is extended eastward to the road running from Williamsport to Martinsburgh, Winchester, Strasbargh, Harrisonburgh, and Staunton, including that place; thence in the same direction southward until it strikes the Blue Ridge to the southern boundary of the State of Virginia. The department of the Shenandoah in extended eastward, to include the Piedmont district, and the Bull Mountain range. " Governor Bradford and ex-Governor Hicks, o f Maryland, are both said to favour a special session of the Legislature to take into consideration the President's Emancipation Message, and there are many evidences of an inclination on the part of the slaveh-4clers of the State to heed 'the signs of the times,' " The following is the latest from General Hal leek's army : " Washington, Friday, June 13. "Despatches from General lialleck, dated June 12, 7 Pan., have been received at the War Depart ment. Beauregard is reported to have been at Tupello (?) with the remains of his army on Satur day last. Spies and deserters represent the rebel army , to be greatly disorganised. Mutinous and deserting regiments which refused to serve longer, their time of enlistment having expired, have been disarmed and large numbers shot. The immense destruction of valuable store s proves that the rebel retreat was a hurried one. Half burned locomotives and cars are found in places where they would not have been left if the enemy bad b een making a prepared retreat. The rebel army contemplated and south of has stripped of food the whole country . Corinth, and many stars , _ q r .!. the inhabitants are m a inc.,' condition.' General Fremont telegraphs follows as " HON. E. M. STANTON. dead -quarters, Mountain Department, Har risonburgh, Virginia, June 10. " In my despatch of y es t er d ay , 1 omitted to state that Col. Cluseret's Brigade, consisting of the 16th Ohio and Bth Virginia, afterward supported by the Garibaldi Guard, formed our advance, and com menced the battle of Cross Keys by sharp skirmish ing at 9 o'clock in the morning. During the day they obtained possession of the enemy's ground, which was disputed foot by foot, and only withdrew at evening, when ordered to retire to a suitable position for the night. The skill and gallantry displayed by Cluseret on this and frequent former occasions, during the pursuit in which we have been engaged, deserve high praise.—Respectfully, - J. C. FREMONT, Major-General." A despatch from Memphis says " Memphis, June 12, via Cairo, June 13. " The reports that the rebels have burned Vicks burgh were not credited. Several gunboats and rams are starting on a reconnoissance up %% hite River. Many families are starting North who have been waiting months for the Union forces." The correspond ent of the 2ribune with General 31 Dowelrs corps sends th e following despatch— • " Manassas, June 13. 6, A report has just reached here that a guerrilla party, numbering 150, d as h e d into Warrenton last Monday evening, end captured 22 sick soldiers left in the hospital, and from 25 to 30 stragglers from Gen. Gibbon's Brigade of Gen. King's Division. Small guerrilla squads have been seen to-day in the neighbourhood of Huntsville, and Majo Duffle, of Gen. M'Dowell's body-guard, has been sent out to capture them." The first United States' mail from New Orleans since the capture of that city had reached New York, bring Southern papers to the Ist inst. The , Funday Delta of that date has the following article:— " On the Ist day of May the troops of the United States marched into this city and took up quarters in the Customhouse. They passed through streets deserted, the shops and places of business closed, the few persons seen scowling under their hats at the procession —not a cheer for the return of the old flag, not a welcome, not a smile to evidence joy at the relief from anarchy and despotism. A stranger might have supposed that a happy and free people were to succumb to the brute force of a bar barous and uncivilised race. So might the citizens of Rome have met the entrance of the Huns into the then mistress of the world. No man could have dreamed that order and security were marching in to dethrone confusion and danger, to trample out Thuggery in high places and in low places, to walk by the citizen by day and by night, to secure the life and limb which had been constantly imperilled before, to guard property, at the mercy of the mob up to that time—and yet this was the case confessedly. One short month has elarsed. The streets are filled with smiling faces, business attracts with open doors, Thugs have left for summer wa tering-places, property is secure, and Abraham Lincoln, by the grace of God and the electoral vote of the people, President of the United States of America, might walk unarmed and unaccompanied at any time through these streets, in full security, and to the joy and delight of numbers who have heretofore been accustomed to link his name with curses and execrations. Slowly and gradually at first this change appeared, the terror of a twelve month was not to be cast off in a day, but, as one by one the citizens gathered courage to come for ward and speak out the sentiments which had been crushed out, but not eradicated, the stream gathered strength and fulness till within the past week the wish to bring themselves within the aegis of the flag has been quite equal to the power of the autho rities to receive their declarations of allegiance. The teachings of a lifetime, the protection of a life time, the pride and glory of a lifetime of, under, and in the Union had not been effaced by a brief course of rebellion, and many who believed they had suc ceeded in bringing themselves to hate found them selves mistaken at last. It was a brother's hate, fierce and bitter, the fiercest and bitterest, but the recol lection of the mother, the father, the family, brings back, at last, the reconciliation, and the knowledge that during the whole period of estrangement the heart had been true to its duties. The opportunity for this change had been given to this people by the judicious course adopted by the Major-General com manding. It would have been easy, nothing easier, to have adopted a course just but harsh, righteous but strict, which would have added fuel to the flame already burning only too furiously. But by a calm and quiet course, waiting to learn before acting, and then acting justly, and in such manner as to elicit the praise of all as he relieved the fears of all, he has convinced the people that the Gover nment is to-day, as of old, protective and kindly, and has drawn out the old memories to do their perfect work. All honour to him for this course; and in this course he has found no difficulty in leading his assistants, who, believing in him, and acting from no ulterior purpose beyond the restoration of those magnificent monuments of human wisdom and human compromise, the Constitution and the Union, have leaped to anticipate his commands. Citizens of New Orleans, you have had one month of order, peace, and security. The cause is patent. Will any of you seek to return to your condition in the months preceding, or will you grasp at and cling to that Power which has snatched you from the burn ing ? You must have it whether you will or not. Is it not better to take to it readily, cheerfully, and heartily, than to stand sullenly waiting for what will never come ? Choose ye." A Court of Inquiry assembled, on the 13th, at the office of Captain Radford, at the Brooklyn Navy yard, New York, to investigate the circumstances under which the Emily St. Pierre was taken from Prize Master (Acting Master, United States Navy) Otuur, who was held to await the action of the Court. The officers of the Court were Commander Radford and Lieutenant Flag, of the receiving ship North Carolina. There were also four of the Emily's crew attending the Court. They said that the dis aster to the prize was caused by the crew put on board not having been provided with arms. It was not thought that a court-martial would be deemed necessary. The chief facts elicited from the wit nesses examined did not differ materially from the statements already published. The result of the Court of Inquiry would be made known to the Navy Department immediately on its adjournment. 7HE NAVY. Her Majesty's iron paddlewheel steamvessel Caradoc, in King William Dock, at Woolwich, is ordered to be pushed forward for service, to replace the despatch vessel Banshee, in the Mediterranean station. She is to be coated internally with Day's composition. A cylinder for the Caradcc was yes- terday successfully cast in the factory at Woolwich, under the superintendence of Mr. Partridge, acting chief engineer of the yard. The weight of the metal employed was 16 tons. The screw steamsloop Columbine, built at Deptford and partially fitted at Woolwich was on Wednesday despatched from Woolwich to Sheerness to be completed, by reason of the great amount of work now on hand at Wool wich dockyard. A special announcement was yesterday posted in Woolwich dockyard, intimating the sanction of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty for the ob servance of the Queen's Coronation, to be held on Monday, the 30th inst. This will close the entire establishment from midday on Saturday till the following Tuesday. His Danish Majesty's screw corvette Heindal, Capt. Grove, arrived at Spithead, from St. Thomas, yesterday morning. She left St. Thoinas on the Ist inst. Her Majesty's ship Immortalite sailed from St. Thomas on the 30th of May, and the Royal Mail steamer Shannon, arrived there on the 31st. Darin the voyage home the Heindal spoke the fol lowing vessels :—On the 3d inst., in lat. 20, N, long. 64.34 W, the French brig Fernandez, and on the 14th inst., in lat. 41.40 N, long. 43.10 W, the brig antine Helen. On the 22d inst. she passed the wreck of the Joseph Howe, with bowsprit and fore and main masts and boats gone, apparently aban doned by the crew. On the 25th inst., near the Lizard, she spoke the William Turner, homeward bound. In the forenoon Capt. Grove was presented to the military and naval authorities by Mr. A. L. Vanderbergh, his Danish Mjesty's Vice-Consul at `the port. The Heindal, after coaling, will leave S pithead for Copenhagen on Sunday. The Shan non screw f r i gate, C apta i n Oli ver J. Jones, l e f t the steam basin of Portsmouth dockyard yesterday, and proceeded out of harbour under steam to make the last of her present series of screw trials at the measured mile in Stokes Bay. Before clearing the h ar b our, however, it was evident, from the altered m otion of th e p rope ll er an d t h e sudden increase which took place at the same time in the vessel's engines, that something was wrong with the propeller. On gaining open water clear of the harbour channel an examination as far as was possible under the circumstances was made, the result of which gave reason to believe that one of the three blades of the propeller w as gone. Under such circumstances the ship returned to the harbour, where she will be docked, and the damage, what ever it is, made good ss soon as possible. The trial will now probably not be made before Monday or Tuesday next. The firing at the armour plates on the sides of the Sultan taro ship commenced from the 68- pounder of the Stork in Porchester Creek, Ports mouth harbour, yesterday. The pl a tes proved to be of a very superior qu a lity, as com p a red with the general average of plates received for testing. The Adventure, screw troopship, Commander Lethbridge, was taken out of Portsmouth harbour yesterday to test machinery on completion of alte rations to her screw shaft, reboring of her stern tube. Everything proved to be in good working order, and fit for sea service. The ship is now being fitted to convey to Canada the wives and children of soldiers belonging to the regiments recently sent there. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Commander Mountford J. L. Peile, to the Royal Adelaide ; John Henry Ellis, promoted to the rank of master ; Sub-Lieut. W. C. Karslake, confirmed to the Trafalgar ; Sub-Lieut. George R. Keating and Sub-Lieut. W. E. K. Cockell, confirmed to the Warrior; Sub-Lieut. T. H. Larcom, confirmed to the Chanticleer ; Sub- Lieut. Day H. Bosanquet, confirmed to the Black Prince ; Sub-Lieut. Henry C. Wallis, confirmed to the Geyser; J. A. Kitt, first-class assist.-engi neer, to the Sanspareil ; W.

Steele, assistant-clerks, to the Euryalus, as supernu meraries. TIIE SUN, LO3DON, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 27, 1862. THE ARMY. Yesterday detachments of cavalry and infantry, to the number of upwards of 100 men of all ranks, belonging to regiments serving in India and the co lonies, were discharged the service at St. Mary's in valid establishment, Chatham, in conformity with an order to that effect received from the Horse Guards, the whole of them having been previ ously inspected by the Commissioners of Chelsea Hospital, and found unfitted for further service. The troops who received their diacharge belonged to the 3d Dragoon Guards, 7th Dragoon Guards, 6th Dra goons, 7th Hussars, 18th Hussars, 2d Royals, 6tb, 7th Fusiliers, 10th, 13th Prince Albert's Light In fantry, 18th Royal Irish, 21st Fusiliers, 23d Royal Welsh Fusiliers, 25th King's Own Borderers, 46th, 51st King's Own Light Infantry, 55th, 56th, 60th Rifles, 61st, 64th, 67th, 71st and 72d Highlanders, 81st, 83d, 89th, 91st, 92d Highlanders, 94th, 97th, 98th, 99th, 106th, and the Rifle Brigade Regiments. In addition to the above, 30 men of the 28th, 68th Light Infantry, 69th and 99th Regiments, left Chatham garrison yesterday and proceeded to join the depots of their respective regiments at Fermoy and Cork. A notification was yesterday received at Chatham from the War Department announcing that the Secretary of State for War has been pleased to direct that all persons employed in the Civil Service be longing to all departments of the service connected with the War Department of the United Kingdom, are to be granted two days' leave of absence, with pay, for the purpose of enabling them to visit the International Exhibition. In cases where the dis tance from London is too great to allow of two days being sufficient for the visit the leave of absence is to be extended. The order directs it to be distinctly understood that this concession is not to entail upon the public any travelling or other expenses, and that leave is to be obtained at such times as will be least inconvenient to the wants of the service. An order has been received at Chatham garrison from the Horse Guards for the presentation of sil ver medals and gratuities, awarded by the Duke of Cambridge, to the following non-commissioned offi cers of the Royal Engineers, for long service and exemplary conduct :—Colour-Sergeant T. Duckett, medal and £l5 ; and Colour-Sergeant James Camp bell, medal and £lO. A most deplorable occurrence took place yester day morning in Woolwich Arsenal, under the fol lowing circumstances :—A number of men belong ing to the Royal Carriage Department were engaged in stacking plates of iron used in the construction of platforms and traversing slides for gun-carriages, when a man named Joseph Copley, in assisting to form the stack, found the sleeve of his coat adhering to a corner of one of the plates. in the attempt he made to extricate himself, the plates, which are about 16 feet long, 8 inches broad, and a quarter of an inch thick, and weigh about 201 b each, fell on him from the stack and crushed him to death. TEE FEL VERTON _LIBEL CASE. (Before Lord Ardmillan and a Jury.) MARTA THERESA LONGWORTH or YELVERTON V, JAMES WALKER, Esq., of Dalry, Advocate. This case came on on Wednesday in the Justiciary Court-room, which was crowded in every part from the time the court-room was opened, at ten o'clock, till the close of the case. The counsel for the pur suer were the Solicitor-General and Mr. Fraser, and for the defender, Mr. Young and Mr. A. B. Shand. The following was the issue and schedule sent to the jury, which sufficiently explain the nature and cause of the action : " Whether, in or about the Ist day of Janusry, 1862, the defender did write and forward, through the Post Office, to the Honourable William Henry Yelverton, at Whitland Abbey, near Narberth, in South Wales, the letter, dated Ist January, 1862, in the schedule appended hereto ; and, whether the defender did, in said letter, falsely, calumni ously, and L juriously, represent that the pursuer is a most degraded woman—that it is a disgrace for respectable per • sons to associate publicly with her—and that the said W. Henry Yelverton, by receiving her into his house, was bringing dishonour on himself and his relations ?—to the loss, injury, and damage of the pursuer. " Damages claimed, £3,010." SCHEDULE. Edinburgh, 6, Eton-terrace, la Jan., 1862. 31r—I observe in to-day's copy of the Edinburgh Courant a paragraph announcing the arriv.l at your house of the Honourable Mrs.Yelverton, to pass the Christmas week. My purpose in writing to you now is to inquire if this visitor is the person who calls herself " the Honourable Mrs.Yelver ton," but whose real name is Theresa Longworth. As I consider that the honour and character of my wife's family is seriously affected by this circumstance, if true, I don't con sider any further apology necessary for troubling you with this letter. When I first heard of your most extraordinary an unnatural conduct in openly taking up the cause of Miss Longworth at the Dublin trial, I must say, though greatly shocked and grieved, I hoped that when you came to reflect more calmly on your delicate position in regard to the suc cession to your nephew William C. Yelverton, and also when the real character of Miss Longworth became generally known, as it ,now is, that whatever your own private hopes for the success of her case may have been, that respect for your brother Lord Avonmore, and for your own character, would have prevented you from publicly associating with this most degraded woman; but I fear I have been mistaken, and that, with the new year, another, and I may almost say a worse dishonour has fallen on the family. Had you been a more distant relation, or had you been merely one of the public, uninterested in the result, whatever it may be, of this case, I should have understood that your disapproval Wm. Yelverton's conduct, rather than your approval of Miss Lon gworth's, had created a sort of sympathy for her cause,but that, in your position, as being the only person who could be benefited by William's child being made illegitimate, your near relationship to him, and, above all, the consciousness of the pain which you well know your conduct must cause your kind-hearted brother and all his family, your conduct appears to me so selfish, so base, so unnatural, that it is hardly possible to believe it; and I am perfectly certain, that in the whole world there is not one person, not except ing Miss Longworth herself, who must not from the bottom of their hearts despise you. I have often heard it remarked by those who strongly censured poor William's conduct, that they would much rather be in his than in your position. I can assure you that it causes me great pain to write what I have written to cne in your position, my wife's uncle, and so much older than myself ; but I cannot restrain my in dignation, and this I have written without consulting any one. I know that my feelings are shared by all my wife's family. I cannot conceive that your own family can approve of the course you have taken, but with them it would not become me to interfere. I have done what I conceive my duty, in telling you whet my own and my wife's opinions are.—l remain your most obedient servant, (Signed) JAMES WALKER. (Addressed)—To the Hon. W. H. Yelverton, Whit land Abbey. Mr. Fraser opened the case for the pursuer in a close and clear statement, and then called the fol lowing witnesses : The Hon. Wm. Yelverton, of Whitland Abbey, South Wales, who, being examined by the Solicitor- General, deponed—l am the brother of Lord Avon more, who is an Irish Peer, and resides in Ireland. I have for a long time resided at South Wales. I was formerly a member of Parliament, and have been High Sheriff of the county in Which I reside. Mr. Walker, the defender in this action, married a niece of mine, a daughter of Lord Avon- • more. I have three daughters and a son, who are all grown up. One of the daughters and a son re side at home with me. Lord Avonmore has a son. the Hon. Major Yelverton. I became acquainted with the pursuer in London in the year 1860. Pre vious to that I heard that she claimed to be the wife of my nephew. For a considerable time I was under the impression that Theresa Longworth was a person of improper character. I received a copy of Galignani, and it contained a short report of the trial in Dublin. Seeing the evidence she swore to, and a certificate by Father Mooney, I saw that the ceremony was a confirmation of a previous marriage, and I inquired whether there was such a ceremony, and was satisfied there was none. When at Dover, in the hotel there, a person came inquiring for Mrs. Yelverton. When the person entered he said he was wrong, and that he came to see Mrs. Theresa Yelverton. He was going away when I said he was a person I wanted to see. He said he knew Mrs. Theresa Yelverton, and also Major Yelverton. This was a Mr. Goodlet, a merchant in London. I called upon him in London, and he said, would I have any objections to see the lady ? I said not, and I met her at his office. I saw her more than once. This was in October, 1860. I saw her at her aunt's house in London. I went over to Dublin to ascer tain the exact state of the case. I attended the whole of the trial in Dublin. I had no confidential communication with her legal adviser. I usually staid in the Gresham hotel, but I did not stay there then, as Mrs. Yelverton was there. The result of the trial was to make me accept her as Major Yelverton' wife. I wrote to my wife that we should do so, and I invited her to my house. She ultimately came and paid me a visit. She did not visit me the first time I asked her. She came and visited me in Nov. or Dec,, 1861. She was with me on last New year's-day. My wife and son and daughter were there. My neighbours were called and introduced to her. She visited in the neighbourhood, at the clergyman's, Mr. Protheroe. Her introduction was through me and my family. While she was with me, I remember receiving a letter from the de fender, Mr. Walker. I was very much distressed by receiving such a letter, and did not know how to act. I produced the letter to the family at dinner time or lunch time. The pursuer was present when I produced it. I handed it to her, as I thought she ought to see it as her character was attacked. I thought it my duty to show it to her. I said to her you see, notwithstanding all that was discroved at the trial, what is said about it. Cross-examined by Mr. Young—Lord Avonmore is 73 years of age. He has only one son alive, Major Yelverton. lam aware my nephew married Mrs. Forbes in 1858. I believe there is a son of that marriage. Mrs. Forbes was received by Lord Avonmore as Major Yelverton's wife. I never re. ceived her. When I first became acquainted with Miss Longworth, I was aware that a criminal in formation had been lodged against Major Yelver ton for bigamy. I was not aware that that was done by her. I can't say that I was awar e th a t she was pursuing an action against Major Yelverton in Scotland. Up to the time I met Mrs. Yelverton, I interdicted the subj ec t o f her connection with Major Yelverton. I was aware that he had been brought into Sir C.Creas. well's Court, but that he avoided being brought there. I am aware that the effect of success by Miss Longworth will be to declare that the mar riage with Mrs. Forbes is no marriage, and that her children are illegitimate. I visited Miss Long worth nearly every day during the progress of the trial in Dublin. I went over to Dublin at her re quest to arrange matters with Major Yelverton and Mrs. Theresa, in order that the trial should not take place. One or other of the ladies must give way. I don't know what the arrangement was to be, but I understood that one of the ladies was to give way. (Laughter.) I went over in order to take up a neutral position. Just as she was leaving the Court the second day, I took her hand and said I was convinced she never could have gone through such an ordeal unless she had been supported by the truth, and I declared in her favour. My brother did not take the same view. I stood alone in the Avonmore family in that respect. At this time I was aware that the Scotch ptoceedinga were going on to try whether Theresa Longworth was married or not to MajorYelverton. At that time I opened my house to the lady who was trying to convict my nephew of bigamy. lam not aware that I gave offence to my brother. Major Yelverton succeeds to the title of Lord Avonmore, and after that his son, if legitimate. Then my son, if Major Yelver ton has no legitimate son. The letter I received from Mr. Walker was written in a very angry tone, and a very unjustifiable tone, and very stupid tone. (Laughter.) I am not aware whether he was angry or not. It was offen sive and stupid. It did not, in the slightest degree, produce an unfavourable impression as to Miss Longworth. It did not alter my opinion of her. I was satisfied it could not be agreeable to her to read it. She had suffered so much from the same cause that I did not think it would aggravate it much more. I mean from the aspersions that were cast upon her character. This was an aggravation of it. I rather think when my wife had read it she went in and told her of it. I would otherwise have had great doubt if I would have shown it to her or not. I could not conceal that from my wife. I was aware that the Scotch proceedings were going on, and that her character was legally assailed. I am aware that the letter I received was published in the newspapers, for I saw it there. I don't know who published it. Re-examined by the Solicitor-General—lt was after this action of damages had been commenced that I saw the letter. The Hon. Mrs. W. H. Yelverton was examined as to having spoken of Mr. Walker's letter to the pursuer, and Mr. Walter Price Howell Powell, of Maesgwynne, was examined to prove that the pur suer bed been introduced to the best society in the county by the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Yelverton. For the defence, the letter was neither denied nor sought to be justified, and the defender ex pressed regret at having written it under feelings of irritation. Copies of the Saturday Review and Lnited Service Gazette of the 9th of March, 1861, were put in to prove that the pursuer's conduct had been freely commented upon in the public prints. It was also urged that the letter had been a private one, and that the publicity given to it was not the act of the defender.. Counsel having addressed the jury, Lord Ardmillan proceeded to sum up the case. He told the jury that though it was necessary, to explain the case, that they should be told of the marriage actions, they were to give no effect to the circumstances of those actions. They had not to deal with the truth or falsehood of the statement made in those actions, their attention being only called to the fact that eertain statements were made on one side and denied on the other, and out of that case the present action had arisen. The letter was not denied, and the pursuer acted judiciously in not pressing for exorbitant damages. It was necessary the verdict should be for the pursuer, and, though he did not think nominal damages would he suffi cient, it was not a case for extravagant damages. In fixing the amount the jury would remember that the letter was a libel while in the receiver's hands, but for the publication of the letter the defender was not responsible, and the publication must not be taken as an aggravation of the case. After a short absence, the jury intimated that they had agreed to a verdict by a majority, which counsel on both sides agreed to accept, and the ver dict was given for the pursuer. Damages, £5OO. THE TRIAL OF BOHAL—The result of this trial (says the Dublin Express), which has been looked upon by the people as a great victory over the Government,is already showing its unmistakeable mischievoits fruits. Col. Knox and Mr. Gore Jones, R.M., were received by the towns people in Thurles on their return with groans. On Sunday an immense body of men, exceeding 1,000 marched in triumph about Templemore with Bohan, who is looked on as a hero. Mr. Carden, of Barnane, while passing them on the high road, was hissed, and had mud thrown at him. Those are outward demonstrations ; but, in addition, it is felt that the failure of the prosecution has been a most unfortunate circumstance. The general opinion of all classes is, that Colonel Knox was mistaken in the men, certainly in one, and the slight marks on the hand of Bohan were evidently not the blows of a heavy whip• handle used with force. I am informed this circumstance had great effect with the jury,who were formed in equal parts of resi dents in the north and south riding, and were all men o f position and intelligence. LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—June 26. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. ;After Term Nisi Prius Sittings, at Westminster, before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn and a Special Jury.) LANE V. PANTON. The declaration alle g ed that the plaintiff Johanna Lane was seduced by the defendant, and was de livered of a male child. The defendant was the father cif the child, and he agreed that in the event of the plaintiff's not molesting him to pay the plain tiff the sum of 12s. per week for the maintenance of the child until he attained seven years cf age. The plaintiff alleged that she had kept her part of the promise, and that there were 35 weeks due. There were other counts for money paid, &c. The defen dant pleaded that the plaintiff had broken her p7o mise and absolved him, and that except as to £5 Bs. never indebted ; ss. was paid before action, and the remainder had since been paid into court. Mr. Mills, Q.C., and Mr. thy were counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. Hawkins, Q.O , Mr. Ribton, and Mr. Biron were counsel for the defendant. From the state of the pleadings the defendant's case commenced first. Mr. Hawkins, in stating the defendant's case to the jury, said the plaintiff was a domestic servant, and the defendant a retired medical man, now residing at Sittingbourne, Kent. In 1857 he practised in Gloucester-terrace, New-road, and in the course of that year he accidentally met the plaintiff in Edgware-road, and spoke to her, which resulted in an intimacy between them, and in July, 1858, she was delivered of a child (called Thomas), of which the defendant was the father. The defendant afterwards went to America, leaving, however, sufficient money for the plaintiff and her child's maintenance. In Sep• tember, 1858, he returned and saw her, and in Sep tember, 1859, he was married on the Continent to his present wife. They came back to Hastings, but some mistake being made in the transit of the lug gage he had to come to London, leaving his wife at Hastings. He went to his residence at Bays water, and to his surprise the plaintiff made her appearance there, and in consequence of her con duct he was induced to give her the written agree ment declared upon. In July, 1859, the plaintiff called on the defendant's wife, and very much annoyed her. Subsequently he found she had had a second child, which child she tried to affiliate on him, and she summoned him to the Hammersmith police -court. She there swore, and produced wit nesses, that the defendant had visited her at certain places, naming one day, the day on which his wife ' was confined. The defendant denied that he had been intimate with her since his return from America, but the magistrate made an order of maintenance of 2s. 6d. per week. That was appealed against and quashed. The defendant had no wish to shield himself from the responsibility of main taining his own child, but he objected to its being appropriated by the plaintiff as she thought proper, and he claimed to ba protected from her annoyance. The learned counsel then called the defendant. Mr. Panton deposed—l reside at Sittingbourne, i❑ Kent. I made the plaintiff's acquaintance first in the autumn of 1857. I met her accidentally in the Edgware-road, and I went home with her. A child was born in July, 1858. I had left this country previously, and was in America at the birth of the child. I returned in September, and was residing in Pembridge-place, Bayswater. I went on the Continent in January, 1859, and whilst abroad in March of that year I married my present wife. We returned to St. Leonard's in May, and in conse quence of the luggage being mis-sent I had to come to London on the 30th of May. She came that day to my house at Bayswater, and, unknown to me, obtained admittance. She was very violent and excited, and used bad language. I asked her what all that row was about, and, so far as I could understand, she wanted a written promise of pay ment for the support of the child. She had been regularly paid up to this time from 7s to Os. per week for the maintenance of the child. I consulted a friend near by, and I then wrote the agreement referred to, and instructed my solicitor to pay the money. The money was paid till July, 1861, when I heard she had had a seeond child. I was sum moned on the sth of September, 1861, to the Ham mersmith Police-court., and charged with being the father of the child born in September, 1860. She stated that in December, 1859, I had had connec tion with her at my own house, and also at the house of a Mrs. Reynolds. I never had intercourse with her at those places, and did not see her after the day I gave her the agreement. The magistrate, however, made an order. I appealed, and attended at the next Middlesex sessions. The case was called on, but the plaintiff did not appear, and the conviction was formally quashed by order of the court. My wife was confined at Pembridge-place in December, 1859. Cross-examined—This is the first action in which I have been defendant. I never had an action for seduction brought against me. I know the Dis pensary in the New-road, Paddington. I occa sionally went there and assisted for a friend. I swear I did not first see the plaintiff there as a patient, and so become acquainted with her. I did see her there once as a patient. I was living in Gloucester-terrace, Hyde Park, in 1856. I was not married then. 1 had lost my wife. I be lieve the plaintiff was 22 or 23 years of age when I first met her, and not 15 or 16 years of age. I never invited her to my house in Gloucester-ter race. She called there on one or two occasions. She did not regularly visit me at my house in 1856 and 1857 by appointment. I kept no note of it if she did. I have no recollection of it. Up to July, 1858, I occasionally saw her and :had intercourse with her. I did not correspond with her. I wrote to her once. Out of the four envelopes produced one only is in my handwriting, and the same with regard to their contents. The others were not written by my authority. I never saw them before. The Lord Chief Justice—lt does not require a second glance to see that they are not in the same handwriting. Witness admitted a second letter to be his. The letters were then put in and read. They had reference only to her obtaining a situation. Witness continued—She was then in service at 4, Gloucester-terrace, Bishop's-road. I did not get the situetion for her. I left funds for her confine meat before going to America, but I cannot say it I appointed the place where she was to be confined. Mary Gott was in my service then, and she is now my laundress at Sittingbourne. She was with me as an occasional servant two months ago. Ido not know if the plaintiff was confined at her house. I saw the plaintiff twice in September, 1858, after my return from Vmerica, but I do not remember if any intercourse t oo k p l ace b etween us. I d id not visit her at 'Airs. Gott's after my return. I once saw her there before going to America. I do not think she met me in the street after my return from America, and that I pretended that I did not know her. During the pending of the appeal terms of compromise were made. I made provision for the plaintiff during my absence in America, but I do not recollect the amount I left with Mr. Apple yard for that purpose. Re-examined—I never heard any complaint of her not being paid her regular stipend during my absence. She admitted before the police magistrate that she was regularly paid. Mary Brandon, domestic servant, residing in Charlotte -street, Portland-place, deposed that at the end of 1859 the plaintiff was living with a Mrs. Powell, in Sutherland-place, Westbourne-grove. She remained there till March, 1860. She told me that she was in the family-way, but not by whom. Mr, Benjamin Froude, builder, deposed to her living there at the end of 1859. Mary Gott, a married woman, deposed that she occasionally worked for the defendant. She assisted in the kitchen, and attended to the door after a cer tain hour. She never saw the plaintiff inside the defendant's house; the defendant was always let in by one of the servants. Cross-examined—The plaintiff was confined at her house of her first child. She never had crimi nal intercourse with the defendant. She was liv ing with her husband in Kent. (The witness appeared to feel acutely these impu tations on her character. The Lord Chief Justice complained of the tone, temper, and manner of the cross-examination, and the jury considered the c ross-examination objectionable.) Witness—She went to live in Kent, and worked for the defendant at Mrs. Penton's request. Re-examined— She had known the plaintiff before the birth of the child. Elizabeth Walker deposed that she was in the defendant's service in 1859. She had often seen the plaintiff outside the house, but never inside. The plaintiff walked with her child up and down in front of the house three or four times a-week. She used to hold the child up in front of the window, talk loud, and swear about the defendant in such a loud tone as to collect a crowd around the house. Tnis was before Mrs. Panton came home. She never heard the plaintiff .call out after Mrs. Penton came home to the house. She never saw the plaintiff at the defendant's house. The defen dant seldom went out after dinner. Cross-examined—She was five years altogether in that service. She never saw the plaintiff at Gloucester-terrace. Mr. Ennis, sen., defendant's solicitor, proved pay ing the plaintiff 12s. per week from May, 1861, to the 2d of July following. She then brought two children with her. He asked her whose they were ? She said, " they were Dr. Panton's." That was the first time he had heard about the second child. He discontinued payment on his own account. Mr. Ennis, jun., gave evidence with reference to the appeal. Mr. Martin, who acted as her adviser, and Mr. Metcalfe, barrister, were at the sessions on her behalf. Mr. Martin ( :tune to witness and said it was a pity the case shoo Id go further. Witness told him that nothing cou! I be done until his client admitted that the preceed• ittgs with reference to the second child were erronel )11s and fraudulent. He said he would advise his client to admit it. She the condition of t he abandonment of fur ther'area called over, and the Int 'gotiations were talked dings was, that the first child should be i about it, an d the arrangements were gv e over , pi r u f lopac to the defendant after a certain time. She o do with the case, and handed Mr. Met calfe after th 'at said he few remarks from the learned put an violet Mr. t . sp o o n ke th to e o t t o hi a , n 7 other barrister.

This closed the defendant's case. Mr. Mills addressed the jury for the plaintiff, and detailed the facts he intended to rely on, and urged that no proof of molestation after the agreement was given had been adduced, except the proceed ings in bastardy could be so construed. Johanna Lane deposed--I am in service at 41, Sutherland -street, Pimlico. I have known the de fendant upwards of six years. I was between 15 and 16 years of age when I first saw him at the New road Dispensary, where I was a patient for an accident. He attended me there. He was living then at No. 10, Gioucesrer-terrace. Three or four months after I first went to his house, by his invi tation, to let him know how I was going on, and it was not till three or four months after that that an improper intimacy took place. He used to write to me to come and see him, when I got a day's holi day. The letters produced are in his handwriting. He can write two or three different handwritings. The footman in the house taught him so to write. (Laughter.) There were two or three other letters so disgraceful that I burnt them. He signed the letters " Red, White, and Blue." (Laughter.) Lord Chief Justfe,:'—What is the meaning of that? Defendant—The chi . : d. was to be called that. He wished it. (Laughter.) Ti' child born in 1858 was the second child. I miscarries the first time. I first received money for my child throt:',.q h Mrs. Gott and her husband. Appleyard, the defendant's milkman, paid me for a little while. I had no fixed sum. Sometimes I was paid 65., 6s. 6d., and 7s. 6d. per week. Defendant left £6 with Mrs. Gott and a Z.ing, which she was to pledge if she wanted more monej whilst he was in America. On his return I accidert tally met him in the street. He ran against me and said, " Well, Ann." I looked at him and said, " I know )ou ; you are Thomas's father." He said, " No." I said he was. He afterwards wished to go home with me that night, but he could not because I had a female living with me. After he gave me the agreement the money was regularly paid to me for a short time. The latter end of 1859 I had an unfurnished room at Mrs. Reynolds's, wlfere he visited me and resumed his intimacy. He gave me there £2 on one occasion for myself and the child Thomas. Afterwards I went into the service of Mrs. Powell, where I remained until I was obliged to leave to be confined of my second child. I went to Dr. Panton's house once whilst I was in Mrs. Powell's service—the defendant is the father of that child. Mr. Turner, solicitor, paid me my money before Mr. Ennis. Because I would not take £l5 and 6s. per week for my eldest boy, and no thing for the second, Mr. Martin "squashed" my case. I was so distressed that I was ()lagged to go with my children into the Kensington workhouse. I was so poor and distressed that I had to beg for a month to get bread for myself and children. I had no means with which to defend the appeal against the order in bastardy. Cross-examined by Mr. Ribton—Yon say you were 15 or 16 years of age when you met the de fendant. What year were you born in ? Defendant—l was born'd in Ireland. (Laughter.) Well, but that is no reason why you should not know ?—I was brought up without any parents, by my aunt. (Laughter.) Then you do not recollect the year yon were born in (laughter) ?—No, sir, I do not. If I had been born in England my birth would have been regis tered. lam alone in the world—without parents, or brother, or sister. The last time I was intimate with Dr. Panton was in his little consuiting-room in his own house. I took a gentleman home with me to Mrs. lteynolds's to show how the defendant was keeping me. It was months before. I was paid the £2 by the defendant. One night a drunken brick layer came to the house to see his sweetheart. I had a female friend staying with me, and to keep him quiet I allowed him to come into the room and sleep in his clothes. We got up and dressed before he awoke. After the birth of my second child I went to a house for an immoral purpose with a gen tleman I accidentally met in the street. Before the birth of the second child I was seen drinking in a public-house with a gentleman Mrs. Reynolds called " the mt. catcher." (Laughter.) By the Lord Chief Justice—l informed Mr. Tur ner before the second child was born that Dr. Pan ton was the father. Giles Newman was the foot man who taught Dr. Panton to write different hands. The four letters produced are in the de fendant's handwriting. The Lord Chief Justice handed the letters to the jury. Two of them were evidentally written by an educated man, and he spelt her name " Annie." The other two spelt it " Ann," were ungrammatical, and ill-spelt, such as " hatt," " welcomb,"" bist friend," " wourld," " promis," letters being used to express dates. Joseph Reynolds, lately residing in Portobello lane, Notting-hill, deposed to seeing the defendant at his house on one occasion when the plaintiff was there, but he was unable to fix the date. She had two sovereigns afterwards. Mary Leader Reynolds, wife of the last witness —Plaintiff has lived with me, on and off, for three years. Dr. Panton has called five or six times and seen the plaintiff there. His last visit was just before Christmas, 1859. He came at night, and on one occasion he was there from 9 till 12 o'clock. Dr. Panton was last there about a fortnight before the plaintiff went into Mrs. Powell's service. Ido not think he calldd after his marriage. I heard he was married before the second child was born. The witness in cross-examination was unable to fix any date either to the defendant's visits or to her hearing of his marriage, or state positively that he visited the plaintiff after she heard of his mar riage, or that his visits were within the period she heard he was married and the time when she heard of it. Mr. Turner, solicitor, Bedford-square, who had been sent for by the direction of the Lord Chief Justice, said—She told me she had had a second child. I paid her from Nov., 1859, till April, 1861. She always said Dr. Penton was the father of the second child. I communicated it to him, and he denied it. I afterwards saw her at the defendant's request, and informed her that if the annoyance was continued the allowance would cease. She promised it should not occur again. Cross-examined—She told she was in the family way by Dr. Panton with the second child some months previous to her confinement. I communi cated it to Dr. Panton because she wanted a further allowance. Dr. Panton said it was not his child, and I informed her so. She always persisted it was his. • By the Lord Chief Justice—Dr. Panton com plained that the plaintiff had been to his house and annoyed him and Mrs. Panton. I told her of his complaint. She knew of his marriage. She always represented that he visited her after his marriage. This was the plaintiff's case. The jury retired to consider their verdict, but were unable to agree. After being locked up nearly three hours they were sent for, and informed that a juror would be withdrawn, the parties having ac cepted the Lord Chief Justice's suggestion, viz., that the arrears at 12e. per week should be paid. The future payments to be Os. per week, and the 3s. a week capitalised, and the plaintiff to make no claim juro f r hd or w t i h t ese r c a o w n n d col COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Westminster, before the Lord Chief Baron and Special Juries.) BRERETON V. GODSON. This action was brought on behalf of a boy , about 12 years old, by his father, as next friend, to recover compensation in damages for bodily injuries alleged to have been sustained by improper medical treat ment. • Mr. W. Digby Seymour and and r. HawkinsM By and le were counsel for the plaintiff; M Mr. Garth conducted the case for the defence. The plaintiff carried on the business of a tailor, at Barnet, Herte, and the defendant was a surgeon, practising in the same town. sh Th oe e when plaintiff's son was bending down tying his , another lad jumped over his back and knccked him down. He tell upon h is arm, and having sustained a frac ture in that part of it called the "humerus"—the bone above the elbow—he was placed by his parents under the care of the . defendant. A " sloughing" of the arm took place ;II consequence, as alleged, of the defendant having bound it with splints too tightly, d the Hospital. n Heremained had m y an ed t o there h e some S time,t Goe andae 's although tho bones united and the wound healed, the lower part of the arm was eo shrunk and withered as to deprive him permanently of the use of the limb. The lad, at the suggestion of the learned judge, exhibited his arm to the jury, and they seemed greatly astonished at the decayed ap pearance which it pr esented. Mr. Tatum, surgeon, of St. George's Hospital, said a perfect cure had been effected so far as healing the wound was concern ed ; but the arm was chroni cally disabled. Tight bandaging might produce " sloughing," but the opinion he formed of the case when he saw it was that there had been no exces swe pressure on the arm. Mr. Chapman, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Borlase Childs, and other medical men were also called on behalf of the plaintiff, but their evidence went rather to disprove the charge of negligence and want 0f proper skill on the part of the defendant. The Lord Chief Barcn said that in his judgment' in point of law, a person ch a rg e d i n a public court with being the cause of a certain mischief ought to be distinctly proved to have been the cause of it, and that the accus.tion should not be treated as a mere matter of speculation or opinion. Mr. Garth submitted that no case had been mad e out. The Lord Chief Baron said it was a question for the jury, The jury consulted together, and the foreman said they had great compassion f-wr the boy, but they did not think there had been any negligence proved against the defendant. Mr. Seymour said after that intimation he would not se, sk to continue the trial. The Lord Chief Baron—l must say, Mr. Ser mour, S•ou always do your duty. Mr. Seymour said he certainly felt it his duty not to press the case when he could not honestly ask for a verdict for his client. Mr. .Htt wkins said the defendant held a great number of public appointments, and he was anxious to have the matter fully investigated, in order to clear his pr 3,.fecsshiioenfalßcahraorna—ctel do not know what r. more T youh The ' H o a ; v w \nt. Mr. :ins said there were a considerable number of m edical men of eminence whom defen dant desired to call. Mr. Seymour said he would relieve the Court from any flirt} 'ter trouble by consenting to a nonsuit. A nonsuit w, Is entered accordingly. The Court wt is occupied during the remainder of • the day with the case of Homes v. Champneys, which was an action fo. r breach of contract with regard to the sale of a medic and surgical business at Slough. The details were wholly devoid of public interest. CO U, VII?

A WORD ABOUT DIAMONDS.—That you MO' understand how keenly this strange beauty of the Diamond affects even those whose business it is to cut, polish, refine, and remove from its grosser covering or in crustation, the stone wh;ch is perhaps ewe day to be s "king's ransom," take the following fact. The artist who was employed to cut the Koh-i-noor was months at his task. With such veneration did he set himself to his work, that if his hand trembled in the morning when he rose before continuing his responsibi2ity of shaping or thinning this magnificent treasure, he stayed work for the day. Long he pondered whether he should venture to thin or diminish the size of this delight of his eyes—whether he should dare to lessen its weight, even though he increased its bril liancy. But he went on as a great workman, loving and honouring what he had to do, and the jewel was thinned and pared somewhat, and be came the magnificence and glory we now see it. I can well believe and estimate this Oriental worship for " The Diamond," and can understand an artist's sacrifice for quality instead of quantity, as my dogged friend at my elbow suggests. Will it be consM.ered childish for me to aver, moreover, that I thoroughly relish the allege*? of Sinbad the Sailor's adventures in the valley of Diamonds, and his account of the merchants' stratagem to obtain the jewels.—Once a Week.
