The South is doing a good work for Missouri. We have to record the departure ore anther lot of negroes from our midst. The steamer Ryland brought 29 adults and children male and female.

FEARFUL BOILER EXPLOSION.—A most fearful boiler explosion occurred on the Shields Railway on Tues day. The coals are sent down this railway by incline to the staiths in the Tyne, and a man named Wm. Brunton was in charge of a standing engine about a mile and a half from Percy Main. Brunton had cleaned the boiler on Sa turday, and had sent two sets of waggons down to the docks at the Hayhole, when the boiler explodedwith fearful force. It was lifted up and torn into four pieces, the principal por tion being thr own across four rail wa y s an d over two deep cuttings. Another portion struck a cottage belonging to Brunton, and nearly demolished it, his wife having a very narrow escape. The engine -house was completely demo lished, and Brunton was buried under the roof and ruins of the building; and a portion of the boiler flying across the waggon way, as a set of waggons were running down the incline, cut the rope and caused them to rim adrift. A. woman and a little girl were riding behind, and as the wag gons increased in momentum they screamed most pitiably. The woman leaped off, but her legs got entangled in the roe, and she was thrown down and dragged some distance. The lad in charge of the waggons fortunately got the rope loose from the waggon and thus saved her ; and another man employed on the railway fortunately jumped upon the waggon and rescued the girl. The waggons ran with great velocity down to Percy Main, and, coming in contact with some standing waggons, smashed them and did a co nsiderable amount of mischief. As soon as a force could be gathered together a number of men were e mployed to dig out Brunton from the ruins, and his body was recovered about an hour and a half after the accident, fearfully mutilated. He was of course quite dead. The Cause of the explosion has not been ascertained, but it is supposed to have been caused by a scarcity of water.--.

COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. CHAMBERS-ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. REES. The further hearing in this part-heard cause 'was re sumed this morning. The question is, What is the true line of demarcation between the sea shore and the beach, or land embankment, at Llanolly, Carmarthenshire, South Wales P have had no instructions from the Commissioners on the subject. I have reported the result of the trial yesterday, and I am going to Scotland-yard after this charge termi nates. Mr. Henry—There is no doubt the prisoner quitted the force without leave. Mr. Lewis—Yes, your worship, but he has done no harm in so doing. Mr. R. Palmer, Q.C., is now being heard for the respondents. (Before the Lords Justices.) APPEAL.--IN RE THE ATHENAEUM LIFE ASSURANCE Mr. Henry —I shall inflict the full penalty of £5, or a month's imprisonment. That leaves the question open whether the Commissioners will prosecute the prisoner in the county of Lancaster. The fine was immediately paid, we understand, by Mrs Wilkins. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A LIEUTENANT OF ENGINEERS AND A BARRISTER CHARGED WITH STEALING KNOCKERS.—Lieutenant Caleb Robert Stanley, of the Engineers, Tower, and Mr. James Ferguson, barrister, of 16, George-street, were charged as follows : Thomas Brown, a police constable, said he was on duty at half-past two that morning in Regent-street, and when at the corner of Maddox-street be saw the two defendants going down the street ringing the bells of nearly every house, they being both drunk at the time. Mr. Inspector Webb, of the C division, said he must ask for a remand in this case, as in the cell in which the do-. fendants were locked up were found two knockers, and he should be in a position to prove that they had stolen them. The knockers were here produced. Charles Madgett said he was employed to clean the cells at the station, and that morning he found under the seat of No. 5 cell, that in which the defendants were, the two knockers produced. There were no others placed in the cell but the defendants. Ferguson said ho was the worse for liquor, but ho totally denied the charge of taking the knockers. Stanley said he knew ho was in the wrong. Mr. Webb said he should be able to produce the owner of one knocker, and other persons whose doors had been injured. The defendants were then remanded.

(Before Sir John Romilly.) lUDGMENT-PRETTY V. SCILLY. His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—This is a question which arises on the construction of the act of Par liament, and a dispute is raised on the question of title. The bill is filed for specific performance of the act, .and to have the usual declarations made. It appears that the certificate complained of applies to the minerals under the lands al loted. The certificate furnishes a good title t? all the allot ments, except as to the mines and minerals of the allotment to the lord of the manor, to which, it is said, a good title is not given. The question is raised on the construction of the 58th section of the Enclosure Act, 45 Geo. 111., cap. 9, an act for enclosiog the lands, meadows, and marshes of Great Campton, in the county of Dorset. His Honour observed that the general rule in the con struction of public statutes was that the special clause ruled the general clause, and looking to the 28th, 29th, and 58th clauses of the Act, he was satisfied that the certificate of the chief clerk, as to the allotment of one-sixteenth part of the land to the Lord of the Manor, gave him a good title not only to the lands, but also to the mines and minerals under the lands. It could not be intended to give him only a superficial interest in the surface soil. His Honour declared that the certificate of the chief clerk, giving the Lord of the Manor that preference—the preference to the mines and minerals under his allotted lands—must be con firmed. CARTER V. SEERIGHT. This case again stands over for judgment. CITY SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) TEETH.-A PAINFUL TRIAL. -ALBERT V. YULY. Mr. Lewis appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Green for the defendant. The action was brought to recover ZS 10s. for a set of teeth supplied to defendant. It appeared that plaintiff is a surgeon-dentist, and that he was employed by defendant to make him a set of teeth. Having done so, he took them to defendant's house, and tried them on, when they were pronounced a misfit. They were taken away, and again tried and left, and defendant was told to persevere —(laugh ter)—but defendant had no patience, and they were again returned, plaintiff promising to make a fresh set. Upon their being taken home, plaintiff promised to try them ; but when plaintiff called to see how they answered, defend ant said it was no use trying, for they hurt him so much that he could not possibly keep them in his mouth. He said to plaintiff, " You have taken a great deal of trouble in this matter, here is 30s. for you." To this plaintiff re plied, "Ten times that would not pay me. You had better persevere--(laughter)—and I expect to be paid." Defend ant said, "Oh I that is absurd. I shall not keep the teeth, but here are two pounds for your trouble." Plaintiff took the £2, but only on account, and took the teeth away with him. He sent themback a day or two afterwards, but they were returned. He thought defendant should have given them a fair trial. He was a very irritable man. (Laughter.) His Honour—Well, Mr. Lewis, what can we do ? I don't see how you can expect the poor man to persevere in spite of his teeth. (Laughter.) Mr. Lewis—lie could not expect the teeth to be easy the first day. He has not given them a fair trial. Witnesses were called, and one, a surgeon-dentist, said that, looking at the model of defendant's mouth (produced) he considered it would be quite a month before the teeth would be easy. His Honour—And would he have to persevere the whole month ? Witness—Yes. His Honour—l should say that would be a painful trial, :Laughter.) For the defence it was urged that defendant was not bound to keep tile teeth if they did not suit him, and a Miss Lewis was called, who stated that defendant suffered very much from sthe teeth. In her experience the teeth should be easy the first day. Mr. Lewis—How do you know ? Witness—l have seen many teeth fitted. Mr. Lewis—Oh 1 that's nothing. Now, don't be offended, pray have you worn false teeth ? (Laughter.) His Honour—Oh f fie, Mr. Lewis. Now, come, don't you think that is rather too pointed ? • Witness—(laughing, and displaying a singularly regular white set)—Never, sir. (Laughter.) Mr. Lewis—Then I won't take your evidence. His Honour—What can we do I Now come, Mr. Lewis, you are a clever fellow, how will you put this ? Mr. Lewis—l contend that he has not given the teeth a fair trial. If a tailor sends you homo a suit of clothes, ordered, and they don't fit, it does not follow that you are not bound to keep them. If they don't fit he alters them. His Honour—l don't see that, Suppose the trousers were the only ones you had, and they didn't fit, that would carry out the old saying--" Lying in bed while your breeches are mended." (Roars of laughter.) Miss Lewis—The teeth rocked in Mr. Yuly's mouth, and made him throw up his food. His Honour—Well, after that—why Mr. Lewis will throw up his case. (Roars of laughter.) Mr. Lewis—No, I won't. His Honour—Then we must nonsuit you. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.) BOW-STREET. DESERTING FROM THE POLICE FORCE.—John Joseph Duigan, a smart-looking young fellow, lately a sergeant in the E division of police, was placed at the bar charged with withdrawing from the force without notice or leave in writ ing, and also with neglect of duty. _. . The prisoner was yesterday indicted a t the Middlesex Sessions for stealing a silver watch and gold chain, a piece of cloth, three rings, and the sum of £47 14s. 7d., the pro perty and money of Edward Wilkins, but a difficulty having arisen he was discharged. The facts adduced in evidence against him on this occasion were as follows::—The prisoner was a police-sergeant in the E division of police, and acted as divisional clerk at the station in George-street, St. Giles's. The prosecutor was a police-constable in the same division, and his wife was employed at the station just mentioned as cook to the unmarried constables who lodged there. The prisoner and Mrs. Wilkins eloped on the 29th of December, and on the 20th of Janury, in consequence of a telegraphic despatch forwarded to LiVerpool by Mr. O'Brien, the superintendent of the prisoner's division, who had received private information, Scott, a Liverpool detec tive, went on board a ship called the Switzerland, bound for America, and there ho found the fugitives passing under the name of Wells, and occupying one berth as man and wife. The things mentioned in the indictment were found in the prisoner's possession, and also some money, part, no doubt, of a sum of £47 14s. 7d., which the woman had withdrawn, just previous to her flight, from the savings bank in Mon tague-street, Bloomsbury, where it had been deposited in her own name. They had paid £l5 10s. for their passage to Now York. When the adultress found she was detected, she threw her arms round her paramour's neck, kissed him, and said, " Never mind, Jack, we'll be together again yet; the tailor's (alluding to her husband, who had been a tailor before he entered the force) no use." Inspector Pethers, E, proceeded to Liverpool and brought them back to London, and the prisoner was charged with feloniously appropriat ing the prosecutor's property. After the evidence for the prosecution closed the assistant judge asked the learned counsel who conducted the prosecution whether ho could point out anything in the evidence upon which he could leave it to the jury whether the prisoner had been guilty of the felony in the county of Middlesex. There was no doubt ample evidence upon which a Liverpool jury could act, for at Liverpool the prisoner was found in actual possession of the property, but there was not the least proof either of the adultery, which no doubt had taken place at Liverpool, having first occurred in Middlesex, or that within the juris diction of the county the prisoner possessed himself of these articles or the money. The point raised by the learned judge could not be met, as the prisoner was ordered to be discharged. The evidence offered against the prisoner this morning was given by Superintendent O'Brien. He stated the pri soner was what was called a sergeant-clerk. On the 29th of December he was reported absent without leave, and nothing more was heard of him until he was taken into custody for stealing the rings and watches. He was posi tive the prisoner never gave notice of his intention to quit the force, and he also know he had not received written leave to do so. Mr. Lewis, jun., who appeared for the prisoner, said there was no doubt the offence committed by ;his client came within the 15th section of the Metrop o lit a n Police Act, which authorised a magistrate to inflict a penalty of £5 or a month's imprisonment, for quitting the force without notice ; but he hoped that, as the prisoner had been con fined for some days, and had lost his situation, the magis trate would remit the penalty. Mr. Henry—lf I take that view of the case, the prisoner is still liable to be tried for the offence committed in Lan cashire, as the judge was of opinion that there was nothing to show that the prisoner possessed himself of the prosecu tor's things in Middlesex. Do the commissioners intend to indict him at Liverpool ? _ Inspector O'Brien—l cannot say, your worship, I COVENT GARDEN.

REFORM IN KENSINGTON.--At the usual fort nightly meeting of the Kensington vestry on Wednesday night last—Mr. Wilkins in the chair—the following resolu tion was carried amidst considerable cheering :—" That a petition be addressed by the vestry of the parish of St. Mary Abbotts, Kensington, to the Honourable the Commons of England in Parliament assembled, requesting that the Honourable House would, in any measure that may be adopted for the reform of the representation of the people in Parliament, be pleased to take into consideration the strong claims of the parish of Kensington to be represented by two burgesses on account of its wealth, respectability, awl population," LOLA MON2'EZ IN CARLISLE, The Carlisle Journal of Friday says :—Last night this celebrated lady delivered her lecture, " Portraits of English and American Character," to a numerous, though not crowded, audience, in the Athenaeum. She was unaccom panied upon the platform. The features most noticeable in appearanceher . and d emeanour were h er l ow forehead—the tenta fronte7 so much admired by the Romans,—her fine eyes,—her arch and expressive mou th, the lips closing with a firm compression which one might expect from Madame's energy of character,—her voice fresh and unworn, and evincing a naive and delic a t e susc eptibility of what she read, —her occasional Irish pronunciation,—and her mischievous smirk, when speaking of American courtships and the free doms of American flirtation. We borrow the following sketch of her lecture from a Manchester contemporary : There stepped upon the platform a lady of middle height, delicate in limb and graceful as a fawn, with a head in which the intellectual is considerably developed ; a face of pleasing —some of our friends were inclined to say fascinating —expression ; a clear, sweet-toned, yet ringing voice, and an enunciation so distinct, that we venture to think not a word was lost throughout the evening in that vast area and that curiously-packed audience. Madame Montez wore a high dress of rich black silk velvet, with a small collar of white point lace ; her dark hair was free from the encumbrance of jew e ll er y, and she dispensed with rings or bracelets, or that other class of modern ornament to which good taste give a less complimentary appella tion. In the delivery of the address there was consummate art displayed; every point told, now exciting smiles and laughter, and anon, with rare eloquence, drawing forth en thusiastic plaudits. Curiosity, no doubt, to see so remark able a character, brought those thousands together, but it was evident that large numbers found their attention secured, and their interest excited in the subject of her dis course, and in the artistic mode of its delivery. We have seen no portraits of the far-famed Lola which give the slightest idea of her personal appearance ; for the charm lies not in that sharply-cut Grecian nose, or that fine grey eye, or that mouth i n w hi c h i n t ens ity i s strikingly marked, but in the impression of general character noticeable in manner and voice, which are expressive at once of fancy and feeling. The room was densely crammed in every part, although the expedient of placing forms upon the plat form and in every possible available place was resorted to. In fact, ninny thought themselves fortunate in obtaining standing room, and the forest of faces was perhaps such as could be scarcely witnessed in one room in any other town in EnglAnd. Lola Montez commenced her lecture by pointing out the difference between the Americans and the English, and said that the settlers in the western states were most unlike the English, for there was congregated a salama•• gunda of all nations, having a character which England had not originated, and which she need not regret that she had not. The English were proud of the past history of their country, the Americans looked forward to a glorious future, for their constitution, comparatively speaking, was but of yesterday's growth, and the graves of the first settlers there were still to be seen. She cha racterised the spitoon as one of the institutions of America ; although she was glad. to say that it was gradually disappearing from the drawing rooms of New York, Philadelphia, and Boston, and she proposed that an Anglo-American commission should be appointed, which should sit twenty years, to settle the great " saliva ques tion," which would have the effect of keeping the two nations from going to war about a coast of Mosquitoes, in the deadly swamps of Central America. She considered the excitability of the Americans was co-extensive with their gullibility, and she cited the case of the visit of Kossuth to America to show how they raised up an idol to themselves one day to demolish it the next. A leading feature in the American character she considered was speed—the leading feature in the character of the English strength, and whilst the Yankees might be good at attack, she did n o t cons id er that they could compare with the English for defence. The element of speed characterised everything in America ; fortunes were made sometimes before breakfast one day and lost before dinner the next ; men often entered into the learned professions with only three n!onths of preparation, and in six months they occupkd leading positions in those professions. '- With mgard to the religion of the Americans, there were about one hundred and fifty different sects there, and devotion was carried on with that vehemence which was rarely found in England allied with sanity. The power of public opinion and the freedom of the press in America were next commented upon ; as was also the re markable freedom allowed to young ladies, who could be taken to balls and concerts by any respectable persox with out the slightest objection being raised by papas or mammas. She considered the American ladies very handsome ; but if she had - been a man, she would have preferred an Englishwoman to an American for a wife. The equality of the sexes was greater in America.' than England. A man took no pleasures in which his wife did not participate, and there was not that cringing of one class to another, nor that undue deference paid to - wealth, in America, which were too common in England. She con eluded her lecture with a glowing peroration upon the im portance of England and America maintaining a proper and amicable political alliance. The above is only the merest outline of the lecture, which must be heard to be appreciated, for the style of the delivery of the lecture by Lola Montez is a thing which can never be pourtrayed by dead letterpress. ME7'ROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS. The weekly meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works was held yesterday at the Guildhall ; Mr. J. Thwaites in the chair. The financial statement was presented, which showed a total general balance of £262,280 Ils. 7d. DEPTFORD LOWER-ROAD MAIN SEWER. Tno tender of Mr. Walker of £695 (the lowest) was accepted, for the cleansing of the above sewer. THE LATE FALL OF HOUSES IN KENTISH-TOWN. The Superintending Architect laid before the board a report from the district surveyor on the late fall of buildings in Kentish-town. It stated that Mr. Philip Hardwick, under whose control the buildings in Garsford-street had been erected, had taken every precaution for their safety. The materials were perfectly satisfactory, and the fault was in the mode of construction. Mr. John Stevens, the builder, engaged with a bricklayer to carry up the brickwork at 355. per rod for labour, but failed to dictate any terms of control over his subordinates, and failed also to keep pace with them for the supply of timber, and in the execution of the carpenter's work. The bricklayers were remonstrated with for not waiting, but they refused, and went on to finish their job, and carried up the party walls B and C to the top. The latter having chimneys and a badly constructed scaffold only on one side, had no support or stay on that side, for a height of 30 feet or more ; the wall thus built in the winter, and without bond of any kind, broke off at the level of the:second floor and knocked down the upper portion of a party wall. The concussion caused the flank wall to buckle, and the top portion to fall outwards about 36 hours afterwards. It was perfectly upright before, but built for two stories and upwards without timber. The accident was attributable entirely to the carelessness of the workmen, and the want of proper management in the builder. The report then goes on to recommend that in any future amended act a discretionary power to be given to the district surveyor to allow such bond as may, in his opinion, be an advantage to the structure, without being a detriment in case of fire. This communication was referred to the Committee of Works and General Purposes. THE APPROPRIATION OF BERKELEY-HOUSE. Mr. Leslie brought forward some resolutions in favour of a cancellation of the agreement with Government in refer ence to Berkeley House, but The CHAIRMAN said as the plans for the alteration of Berkeley-house were now before her Majesty's Govern ment, until that resolution, authorising their presentation, was rescinded, these resolutions could not be entertained. Mr. LESLIE said if that were so he would now give the necessary notices for that purpose. The board then adjourned. MURDER IN SHEFFIELD. An atrocious and cowardly attempt to take the life of a man was made on Thursday morning, opposite the' General Post-office, Sheffield. William Wilson, a brass-turner, who lives in No. 8, Court, Fitzwilliam-street, a few minutes before one o'clock, was opposite the end of the Harts head, and was proceeding homewards, when an unprovoked attack was made upon him ; and, from the nature of the injuries which he sustained, there can be little doubt that the object of the assailants was to destroy his life. Accord ing to the wounded man's account of the transaction, three or four men, who came out of a passage opposite the Post office, which is known as the Hart's-head, ran at hin., and one of them plunged a knife or some other'pointed instru ment into his abdomen. The men immediatety ran away. From the effects of the stab the man fell to the ground, and lay totally incapable of moving. At that moment there were no other persons near. He retained con sciousness,:and called out to the best of his ability for assist ance. Two or three persons who were passing that way went by without taking notice of his appeal, believing that he was under the influence of liquor. Ultimately a man named Peter Ross, a tt r acted by his moaning, went to his assistance. Th© injured man reque sted Ross help him; and Ross accordingly raised him from the ground. He found that he was covered with blood.ri- : J Ro bslsatro shall, a compositor, who was passing, assisted carry him into the post-office archway. Ross unfastened come of the injured man's clothes, as h laii.slsdaowfno thisun in d t hhteehear,atarnehtoi to bowels were protruding. As soon g ve the Town-hall for assistance , leavin . Mr. Marshall, who was alicene.s:caorndsstajbolieneGd s.Owen, the market watchman, and p his return Ross found that the persons in care of Wilson were preparing to carry him to the Town-hall, and he ac cordingly assisted. On the arrival of the injured man at the Town-hall, messengers were sent for surgical assistance. Mr. Bland, of the Brunswick Hotel, Haymarket, hearing of the occurrence, very kindly went in search of a surgeon, but was unsuccessful in five or six.instances. In the mean time, h owev er, information was sent to Mr. W. H. Booth, Pari;di s e-square, who was promptly in attendance. He found the man lying at the Town-hall in a very exhausted condition, and on examination ho ascertained that the in testines were protruding from a punctured wound on the right side of the abdomen, just over the region of the liver. His clothes were completely saturated with blood. After the necessary surgical treatment, the man was removed on a stretcher to a room in the building where he would be more comfortable, but he died in the course of the day. He was a married man, in the employ of Mr. John Lambert, in Charles-street. LIVERPOOL BOROUGH BANK.—In the Liverpool Borough Bank case of " Scott v. Dixon" the application for a new trial has been refused. This decision will, of course, bear fatally upon the prospects of the Directors of the Western Bank of Scotland in their attempts to escape that civil responsibility which the shareholders—after having observed the determination of the Government to interpose a screen against every other kind of process— have resolved, if possible, to establish. It may likewise lead to some new movement in connection with the liqui dation of the Northumberland and Durham District Bank, which seems at present to be most adroitly kept from public remark, although it is generally alleged to have involved features such as have not been exceeded in any analogous affair. In this respect, therefore, the result may . be hailed with the greatest satisfaction. Regarded on strictly per sonal points, however, the case is one of hardship. M r. J. Dixon, the defendant, who, as director of the L iv erpool Borough Bank, has now been condemned to on faith oni loss sustained on a purchase of shares effectedn enter e d the blish opposition of his colleagues in endeavouring toescted c the doubtful state e akethe g ood the of the last report of the board, ha d lon g de sound management.

The circ umstance of his b e ing singled out for attack, while the other directors, who might hare saved the bank if they had listened to his re monstrances, have thus far been left unscotched, will there fore, on equitable grounds, be a subject of regret. IDOLATROUS OATHS IN ,HINDOO COURTS OP JUSTICE. The Rev. Dr. Duff, writing to the Witness on the subject of oaths, says :—" Here is another notable sign of reaction under the new reginze. In former times sundry anti-Christian and idolatrous oaths were administered in all our courts to the natives. The Mahommedan was sworn on his Koran, the Brahmin on a text of the Vedas, and other Hindoos by the water of the Ganges, or the name of some tutelary deity. To the Hindcos themselves, these oaths, particularly tl at of swearing by the water of the Ganges, were very offensive. Indeed, rather than take them, they often submitted to imprison ment for contempt of court. Need I say how utterly abhorrent the administration of them became to the real Christian judge. At last the conscience of one man forbade his being a party to the idola trous usage; he refused any longer to administer these oaths. In his hone s ty an d consc i ousness h e paid the p ena lty, b y b e i ng d egra d e d , if not vir tuallysuspended, for two years. This precipitated the discussion of the question as to their total abo lition. And soon it was found that if they were aN sl a il s t not speedily a b olished, other civilians, high in office, would resig n th e service. At length, in 1840, a de cree o a passed,ur x, instead.ce excellent and l e a ntln form friendof eo fo l e a i their abolition ui o isubstituted vbring in g about this happy re Hawkins had an influential share. What, then, will he say now—what will the Christian people_ of Great Britain say, when they are told that, about a week ago, a bill was introduced into our Legisla tive Council, and read a first time, for the express purpose of restoring these idolatrous oaths ? It is not, however, to be read again a second time till the lapse of four months—the ieclared object being to allow time for obtaining an expres sion of opinion alike native and European. We shall not fail to do what we can here. But it is at home that the mainspring of influence is to be found. May we not, then, expect that, on receipt of the deplorable intelligence, all the Evangelical Churches of the British Isles shall rise in one mass, and give forth such an expression of sentiment:oas may serve to blast the odious measure in its bud, and cover its authors with confusion and shame ? May not the Indian Minister be called on to interfere in t'he matter without delay ? Or, if he is not armed with power to control our Legislative Council, may not the Imperial Parliament be called on to inter pose its resistless authority to deliver us from the threatened iniquity ? " The only pretext alleged for bringing forward so disgraceful a bill is the exceeding prevalence of perjury. The prevalence of this high offence against God and man is, alas! a matter of immense noto riety. Perjury is as rife as rice in India ; but the restoration of idolatrous oaths is surely not the cure for it. When these oaths were formerly adminis tered, fraud and chicanery, bribery and corruption, lying and perjury, f orme d i n a ll our I n di an c ourts the almost absolute rule ; truth, the rare and soli tary exception. Affirmation, with or without oath—it is all one ; with or without oath, it is an almost universal lie ; and the idolatrous oath only adds one sin to another. No, no ; apart from the only effectual remedy which the re novating-influence of Christianity supplies, the true and proper legal remedy is the enactment of a law for the summary punishment of perjury. At present the state of the law on the subject of perjury is such that, practically, the most notorious perjurer can escape with absolute impunity. This he knows full well; and hence he scruples not openly and un blushingly to pei jure himself, with a smile of im pertinence, or a scowl of defiance, in the very face of the judge ! Let the British people, then, insist on the non-restoration of the abominable idolatrous oaths ; let them insist on the abolition of them in the Queen's Supreme Courts ; let them insist on the passing of an effective law against perjury, and one important step will be gained towards the clearing of the horrid Augean stable of our judicial system. When asked why such a law should not be passed at once, the usual answer is, that many at least of the present judges, could not be trusted with the administration of it. Let us, then, have proper law, and proper judges to administer it. Here is a subject worthy of the deliberation of Lord Stanley and his new Council." A DIABOLICAL EXHIBITION. (Front the New Orleans Delta.) In the year 1832, said to us yesterday a distin guished legal gentleman of New Orleans, I visited Paris in the course of a professional tour, that my Americanism might be polished down by a little attrition among the gentle particles of Parisian society. I found the world of Paris in a very con siderable state of excitement, in consequence of an extraordinary performance which was nightly exhibited by an eastern juggler, and which was nothing more or less than the apparent decapitation of a man in the presence of an audience, under the very noses of a committee of medical gentlemen, who stood only so far distant while the operation was being performed as to escape the swing of the long two-edged sword with which the juggler smote off the head. I went to see the exhibition, which took place in the theatre, in company with several American gentlemen. The theatre was crowded with between two and three thousand spectators, and the curtain was up, displaying a common table, six feet long, upon the stage, at the very edge of which I obtained a seat, having gone very early. At the given time, the juggler, a singular-look ing man, came upon the stage, with his shirt sleeves rolled up to his shoulders, and bearing a long heavy, two-edged sword. He upset the table upon the boards, and showed that there was no con cealed drawer or other recess, and placed him self in the blaze of the footlights, near the edge of the stage. In a few words he stated what he was going to do, and requested some of the audience to come forward upon the stage, that they might see there was no deception. A number of medical gentlemen, who had been chosen as a com mittee to investigate the matter, if possible, took their position upon the stage, and soon after the victim, who had been sitting in the parquette, mounted the stage removed his coat and cravat , turned back his shirt-collar, and laying down upon his back on the table, elevated his chin to more fairly expose his neck to the headsman's weapon. The juggler then raised his keen and fearful-looking sword, and, giving it a wide sweep, brought it down —I say brought it down upon the neck, for no one could see that he did not, even those within three `eet of him—upon the neck o f the subject with great force. Blood spurted high into the air, some of it falling on our party, and deluged the stage, while the most fearful sound, a something between a groan and a shriek of horror from the whole assemblage, shook the building, and numerous women and some males fainted in their seats, and were borne out by the ushers of the house. The juggler raised his sword again, repeated the blow, and the dis severed head fell upon the floor ! Taking it by the hair he held. it up to the audience for about five minutes, until the blood had ceased to flow from the severed arteries, the lower jaw had fallen, and the face had assumed the appearance of a corpse, then throwing it heavily upon the stage he requested the committee to examine it, which they did, passing it from hand to hand. They then examined the dy on the table, from the head less neck of which the blood had not yet ceased to drop upon the floor of the stage ; they lifted the limbs and, let them fall with the limp Inertia of lifeless matter, and, of course, pronounced the man dead to all intents and purposes. After they had concluded the investigation, the juggler informed the audience that he was going to put the man's head on again, and restore him to life. Taking up the head, he laid it on the table, fitted the two parts off the neck to each other, and be g s to a bo ut to mutter and make signs over the corpse. five minutes the lately decapitated man turned ghastly and horrible face, white as snow, towards e xceeding, the audience, and excitement followe , the first blow if anything, that which occurred when the eyelids of the sword fell.

The police succeeded in apprehending the ringleader, a lad about 19 or 20, who was brought up at the police-court yesterday (Friday). The prisoner, who gave his name as John Lever, residing at 13, Ray-street, said that he did not throw any stones. This statement was contradicted by the officer who took him into custody, and Mr. Mansfield severely reprimanded the prisoner on the in famous outrage which he had been guilty of, and finedh a i i n? u £2 and costs, or two months' imprisonment with 4
