THE, CIVIL WAR INAIITERICA. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY. The Hibernia, Captain Grange, has arrived with the Quebec mails of the 7th. In the Washington Senate, on the 4th, a resolu tion was adopted allowing hereafter a premium of 2 dols. for every accepted recruit to the regular army, and allowing soldiers enlisting as volunteers co in the regular army to receive their first month's pay in advance. A joint resolution, suspending all payments under the Act making payments to per sons employed in the department of the West, was taken up and pclssed. The Tax Bill was then taken up, and after some debate an amendment levying -a tax on cotton of half a cent. per lb. was adopted. The amendment to reduce the tax on the receipts of insurance companies from 3 to 1 per cent., was rejected, but was subsequently reconsidered and adopted. Mutual insurance companies were ex empted from taxation. Mr. Davis offered an amend ment to tax gold and silver plate, not over 50 (Ns. in value, 3 per cent., and billiard tables 30 dollars each, which was rejected. In the House of Representatives, on the 4th, Mr. Porter's motion to reconsider the bill to free the slaves of those uirebellion against the United States was rejected. Mr. P or t er s p o k e in favour of his motion, rand Mr. Phelps against it. Mr. Vallan dighatrA moved to table it, which was lost by a vote of 6 4 to 84, and the motion to reconsider the Bill - was then adopted by a vote of 84 to 65. Mr. Porter then moved to recommit the Bill to the select com mittee, with instructions to report a substitute offered by him, which was adopted by the same vote. The Secretary of the Treasury in a message sent to Congress stated that the total debt of the Govern ment on May '2:9 was 491,415,984 dole., and that the - interest pai:a average only 4.35 per cent. From tieneral Halleck the followine advices had been received : " Halleck's Head-quarter!, June 4. ,s General Pope, with 40,000 men, is 30 miles south of Corinth, pushing the enemy hard. He already reports 10,000 prisoners and deserters from the enemy, and 15,000 stand of arms captured. ThOusands of the en em y are throwing away their arms. A farmer says that when Beauregard learned that Colonel Elliott had cut the railroad on his line of retreat he became frantic, And told his men to save themselves the best way they could. We have captured nine locomotives and a number of cars. One of the former is already repaired and is run ning to-day. Several more will bein running order in two or three days. The result is all I could pos sibly deaire. " H. W. HALLECK, Major-General. " To the Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War." A newspaper despatch states that, immediately On the occupation of Corinth, forces from General Pope's division were sent out in pursuit of such Confederates as fled westward. General Granger, in command of two regiments of cavalry, soon came in the rear of the enemy, six miles south-west of Corinth, and engaged in a fight. He lost 50 men, but was afterwa rds lar g el y reinforced, when the Confederates were surrounded, The New York World correspondent, 'writing from Cairo on the Ist June, says— " As nearly as we can ascertain from parties who have just arrived from the army, there is no fear of the army of the rebels speedily uniting. The bulk of the army has undoubtedly gone down the Mis sissippi Central Railroad to Granada via Grand Junction, and the rest to Okolona, nearly 80 miles south, on the Mobile and Ohio road. A third and much the smaller portion of it is scattered along the country between Corinth and the Mississppi. These latter are the troops which have been em ployed in guarding the railroads running out of Corinth, who, witnessing the general exodus, took the alarm, and are now hastening over highways and byways to points further south, The point Okolona on the Mobile road can have no other significance than being at a convenient distance where to disembark the troops and return.with the rolling stock for other freightage. The destination of all the troops which have gone by that route is - undoubtedly meridian, where a branch road con nects 1E witu ctrumsa.. Th... two Dointa will, we believe, be the gathering points for-such remains of the army as can be gathered together. Large num bers of them are reported at Kossuth, Miss., and some at Grand Junction, but it is likely they will all remove to the main body further south." From the valley of the Shenandoah the following intelligence had been received : MARTINSBUBG, JUNE 4. g , Reliable statements from Strasburg say that Jackson's whole force, with his train and prisoners, succeeded in passing through toward Newmarket. t 4 The firing on Monday was an attack by Gen. Milroy on Jackson's rear guard at Fisher's-hill, a strong strategic point a mile and a half south of S trasb urg. " From the best information attainable the enemy held their ground and resumed their retreat during the night. " It is reported that Jackson's advance guard were in Newmarket on Monday night. Generals Smith and Long-street were in the valley with 15,000 men, but their exact position was unknown." " WASHINGTON, JUNE 4. " No intelligence of public interest has been re ceived from the valley of the Shenandoah. The rise in the Shenandoah em barasses military operations." " HARPER'S FERRY, JUNE 4. " Mr. Eichelegar, formerly of New York, bu recently engaged in business at - Winchester, reached here today. Himself and partner were taken prisoners by the rebels, but he managed to escape, and walked to this place. The rebels took 2 400 prisoners, forty of whom were officers and aszty civiliani. They were taken to Lynchburg. 'Oar fortes hold Martinsburg, and by this time are at Wi nc h ester . C o l one l K en ly o f the Ist Maryland, left Martinsburg on parole for Balti more, by way of Nine deserters Frederick, this morning, from Jackson's army were sent to Baltimore this after s u ß oon.

For this gross outrage two pretexts were alleged—first, that the party did not carry a national flag, and second, that the flag of truce was not sent by the hands of a commissioned officer. Both these pretexts are utterly idle. Dr. Bacon, who bore a flag of truce into the enemy's lines last November, carried no national flag, and I presume that in a majority of instances when com munications have passed over the lines, since the landing of the expedition, no national flag has been shown. And as to commissioned officers, a flag may be sent by the hands of a civilian, or any person whom the commander shall select. All that is re quired in flags of truce is that they shall be se n t in good faith, and not for the purpose of delay or espial ; that they shall be unarmed, and in no stronger forc e than is necessary." missing On the 18 t h the Gen. Dix, sng men were returned. commanding at Fortress Monroe, had relaxedall restrictions Sn uon trade with Norfolk. An order, d ated Francisco, April 30, issued by Brigadier-Ge nera l Wright, commanding the Department of th pacific, e e confi,cates the property of certain persons for aiding and abetting the Con federates. The entire route of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail road was open. A letter, dated Mississippi Flotilla ' abo ve Fort Pillow, May 29, says : " Here we are in front of the enemy's works with a fleet larger, better protected, and better appointed than at Fort Henry, Fort Donelson, or Island No. 10 ; better protected, and more effective, probably, than either of the squadrons which achieved such signal success at Port Royal or Hatteras Inlet ; before us a work, certainly not superior to some of these in strength, and in some respe3!s more dan gerously fatal to its defenders in the event of a brisk attack than most of the above named. Beyond, and with only intervening some few defences not pro bably very formidable as yet, but becoming more so with every day's delay, lies the city from which the rebels are now drawing the chief supplies for their vast army at Corinth, acknowledgedly their last hope in this struggle. Already deserters repre sent that their stock of provisions is becoming short, and at the same time reports from Memphis indi cate that all the available stores in that city are being seized by the Confederate Government for the sustenance of its troops. Arkansas, and Texas aleo, which h,:ve latterly contributed largely to the main tenance of the rebel army, are now compelled, by the occupation of New Orleans by the national forces, to make Memphis their route of communica tion. Let these sources of supply be now cut off by the occupation of Memphis, and the huge army col lected at Corinth must fall by its own weight. " Yesterday afternoon one of the newly-arrived 'rams' made a reconnaissance below the Point, ap parently to watch the effect of our shells, and re mained in full view of the rebel fort some 20 minutes without any attention apparently being paid to her presence." Later despatches are as follows " CHICAGO, 6TH. si Cairo despatches say the steamer Shinghers has arrived from the fleet. At the time she left flames were breaking out from the barracks at Fort Wright, and the gunboats had dropped down the river. The steamer De Soto is expected this forenoon with full particulars. " Cairo. 6th " .rort Wright is evacuated, and we are now in possession. The fleet has passed Fort Randolph, en route to Memphis." The following is General Banks's report of the engagement near Wincheflter on the 26th ult " Headquarters, 3d Brigade, Lamp near Williamsport, Maryland. " Agreeably to instructions received from head quarters of the division, I have the honour to report the movements of my brigade in an engagement with the enemy on the 25th inst., in front of, and less than a third of a mile from, the town of Win • cheater, Vi r ginia. At dawn in th e morn i ng I re ceivedinformation through the o ffi cer comman di ng the pickets that the enemy in large numbers were driving them in and approaching the town. I im mediately formed my brigade in line of battle, the right resting upon the commanding ridge, the left extending into the valley. The ridge surrounds the town, which it holds as in a basin. It is less than one-third of a mile distant, and presents many key points for positions. I placed my artillery, battery M of the Ist New York, composed of six 6-pounder Parrott guns, under Lieutenant Peabody, upon the ridge, and thus awaited further developments. About 5 a.m. skirmishers from the 2d Massa chusetts, on the right and crest of the hill, became sharply engaged. At about the same time I directed the battery to open on the columns of the enemy, evidently moving into position just to the right and front of my centre. This was done with admirable effect, the columns disappearing over the crest. For more than an hour a fire of shell and canister fromseveral rebel batteries was directed upon my position. My brigade, being somewhat protected by a ravine, suffered but little loss. The fire of our skirmishers, and the spirited re plies of the battery, with heavy musketry and artillery firing on our left in Donnelly's Brigade, were the only marked features of the contest until after 6 a.m. At about 6 30, perhaps nearer 7 a.m., large bodies of infantry could be seen making their way in line of battle towards my right. They moved under cover of the dense woods, thus con cealing somewhat their numbers. I directed the 29thPennsylvaniaRegiment, Colonel Murphy, and the 27th Indiana Regiment, Colonel Colgrove, to change position from the left to the right of line, holding the 2d Massachusetts Regiment, Lieute nant-Colonel Andrews, first on the right in the centre, cue oa YviLloonsin Itegiment, umbel .auger, forming the left. This movement I had hardly completed, despite a new battery which opened upon my line, when three large battalions of in fantry, moving in order of battle, came out from their cover, and approached my brigade. They were received with a destructive fire of musketry, poured in from all parts of my brigade that could reach them. Confident in their numbers, and rely ing upon large sustaining bodies, suspicions of which behind the covering timber in our front were surely confirmed, the enemy's lines moved on, but little shaken by our fire. At the same time, in our front, a long line of infantry showed themselves rising the crest of the hills just beyond our position. My little brigade, numbering in all just 2,102 in another moment would have been overwhelmed. On its right, left, and centre, immensely superior columns were pressing ; not another man was avail able, not a support to be found in the remnant of his army corps left General Banks. To withdraw was now possible ; in 'another moment it would have been too late. At this moment I should have as sumed the responsibility of requesting permission to withdraw, but the right fell back under great pressure, which compelled the line to yield. I fell back slowly, but generally in good order, the 2d Massachusetts in column of companies moving by flank, the 3d Wisconsin in line of battle moving to the rear. On every side above the surrounding crest surged the rebel forces. A sharp and wither ing fire of musketry was opened by the enemy from the crest upon our centre, left and right. The yells of a victorious and merciless foe were above tho din of battle, but my command was not dismayed. The 2d Massachusetts halted in a street of the town to reform its line, and then pushed on with the column, which, with its long train of baggage w aggons , division, brigade, and regimental, was making its way in good order towards Martinsburg. My retreating column suffered serious loss in the streets of Winchester; men and women vied with each other in increasing the number of their victims by firing from the houses, throwing hand grenades, hot water, and missiles of every description. The hellish spirit of murder was carried on by the enemy's cavalry, who fcllowed to butcher, and who struck down with sabre and pistol the helpless soldier sinking from fatigue, nnhcoding his cries for mercy, indifferent to his claims as a prisoner of war. This record of infamy is preserved forthe women of Win chester. But this is not all. Our wounded in hos pital, necessarily left to the mercies of our enemies, I am credibly informed, were bayoneted by the rebel infantry, in the same apartments where we, \ alien victors on the fields of Winchester, so ten- Qerllnursed the rebel wounded. The rebel cavalry, doubted, it would t a u ppear, gave no quarter.

THE NAVY. The Meeanee, 80, screw steamship, 400-horse power, was removed from the basin, in Sheerness yard, on Tuesday, after her bottom had been cleaned and several serious defects in the coppering made good. She is now ready for removal to her station at Leith, where she is to take the place of the Edin burgh, 60, screw, coastguard ship, Captain C. F. Schomberg. The Rattler, 17, screw steam sloop, 950 tons, 200 horse power, is in the basin at Sheerness, being fitted with all despatch for the Ist division of the Sheerness steam reserve. The Rattler is a new vessel recently launched at Deptford, and is fitted with a pair of horizontal direct acting engines, by Messrs. Mauclslay, Son, and Field. She will be taken on the contractors' trial of her engines in a few days. The vessel is to be supplied with one 401 b. pivot Armstrong, two 401 b Armstrong, 16 321 b. broad side guns, and a 121 b. hoviitzer for the boats. Intelligence was yesterday received at Chatham that the 20th company of the Royal Engineers will shortly arrive at head-quarters from Fremantle, Western Australia, after an absence of eleven years. The company left England in 1851 to form the colony of Fremantle, and during the time they have been stationed there the men have built a large con vict establishment and other public biildings, and laid out roads in every portion of the colony, Two of the companies of Royal Engineers, the 15th and 18th, despatched to Canada on the occa sion of the anticipated hostilities with the United States, will shortly be withdrawn from that station, and despatched to the Mauritius to relieve the 11th and 21st companies, whose period of foreign service has expired. The 4th company of Royal Engineers, which also left England a few months since, will, it is understood, be ordered from Canada to Halifax, Nova Scotia, to relieve the 7th company, which re turns to England on the completion of its period of colonial service. Orders were yesterday received at the head-quarters, Chatham, directing the wives and families of the non• commissioned officers and men of the 4th company to be forwarded to Canada to join their husbands. The Resistance, 18, iron screw ship, 3,668 tons, 60 horse power, is being brought forward for the penant with all despatch, under the superintend ence of Capt. W. C. Chamberlain. Six gangs of shipwrights belonging to Sheerness yard are busily employed making alterations. She is to be commis sioned at once. The detachment of Royal Engineers, numbering 31 non-commissioned officers, employed in the in struction of the cadets at Sandhurst College, have joined at head-quarters, Chatham, in charge of Capt. L. A. Hale, Royal Engineers. The ship Dartmouth, belonging to Messrs. Somes, of London, arrived at Plymouth yesterday evening. She left Calcutta on the Bth of March, and the Cape on the 24th of April, with a detachment of the 75th Regiment, consisting of 7 officers and 252 non commissioned officers and men ; 22 deaths occurred upon the passage. The troops will land at Plymouth. The screw steam sloop Columbine was yesterday undocked at Woolwich, preparatory to being for warded to Sheerness, and the Rapid, lately cona missioned, was docked for final examination. The paddlewheel steam sloop Alecto, commander Baby, Y.C., recently arrived at Woolwich from the West Coast of Africa, with disabled machinery, is ordered to be paid off on Wednesday, next, the 25th. Commander Raby, whose signal acts of bravery had already procured him the decoration of th Viptnv;. r--, 1.. his late successful onslaught on the insurgents at Porto Novo in which one of the seamen was killed. He is now suffering severely from the effects of the climate. The Prometheus, also from the West Coast of Africa, will be paid off on Saturday. Mr. Holder was yesterday promoted to second class clerkship in Woolwich Dockyard, vacant by the decease of Mr, Roy. The construction of the various defences for the protection of Pembroke Dockyard and the haven at Milford have been vigorously carried on during the spring. Batteries are now in course of erection on four commanding sites—viz., Popton Point, Hub- berstone Point, and South Hook Point, while new fortified barracks are in progress at Scoveston. Up- wards of 500 men are engaged on these fortifica. tions. The Eclipse, 4, screw-gun vessel, 200-horse power, and the Lilly, , 4, screw gun-vessel,2oo -horse power, are being brought forward with all despatch for the first division of the steam reserve at Sheerness. Each of these vessels will carry an armament of one 1101 b. Armstrong, one 681 b., and two 321 b. spherical shot guns. Several gangs of shipwrights are actively employed upon them, and the vessels are to be ready by the middle of July. A court-martial was held on Tuesday on board the Formidable flagship, at Sheerness, to try Peter Kennedy, stoker, belonging - to the Virago, for assaulting, on the evening of the Bth of June, Mr. H. J. Sones, assist.-engineer of the ship, in Blue Town, Sheerness. The charge was preferred by Commander William G. Hope-Johnstone. The Court found the prisoner guilty, and sentenced him to receive 48 lashes, and undergo three years' imprisonment. Several shipwrights from the Sheerness Dock yard are employed at Shoeburyness in preparing the Warrior target for further experiments. This target has proved more invulnerable to shot than any of those which have been tried, In order to keep pacewith the advance which has been made during the last few years in the size of ships, the new wet and dry docks and floating basins in eourse of formation of Chatham will be sufficiently capacious to receive vessels at least 100 feet longer than any of those now attached to the navy. The works now in progress will include three basins, the smallest of which will be larger .;41,ns. of The area of the three basins, exclusive of the additional large docks also to be constructed at Chatham, is considerably more than that of the total area of the docks and basins at all our dockyards, including two small basins at Woolwich and Deptford, which are altogether useless for large ships. The total area of the existing docks and basins at the various naval ports is 41 acres, but the three new basins to be formed at Chatham will give an area of 591 acres, the largest basin being 301 acres in extent, or about five times the size of the principal basin at reyham, the largest of the kind in England. The second basin will cover an area of 22 acres, and a smaller basin, mid-distant between the two others, with which it is connected, will be seven acres in extent. The new works to be undertaken at Chatham will make that naval establishment considerably larger than the Cherbourg dock yard, where there is a floating basin 50 acres in extent. They will include three large docks each 500 ft in length, and nearly 100 ft clear, and two of about 400 ft in length, and 80ft clear. The new docks will be formed on the south side of the large basin, with which they will communicate with locks, two locks also communicating with the largest basin. Each lock will be 85ft clear, with a depth of water on the sills of 30ft, by which the Warrior, Black, Prince, and other vessels of that class drawing 27ft of water will be docked without having occasion to be lightened, an operation ren dered necessary to all line-of-battle ships entering either of the existing docks, with the exception of Keyham. In the last, under certain circumstances, as much as 27ft of water can be obtained at spring tides. The length of the largest basin at Chatham will be little short of 2,000,ft, with a breadth of 700 ft, which will enable six of the largest line-of battle ships to lie alongside each other at the quays, while under pressing circumstances double and even treble that number can be accommodated. The length of the second basin will be 1,600 ft, with a mean breadth of 700 ft ; and that of the smallest basin 700 ft, with a breadth of 430 ft. Each basin will have 30ft of water at neap tides. In order to obtain the necessary depth of water for ships of the largest size to ascend the Medway as far as Chatham dockyard—which, from the numerous shoals allowed to accumulate in the river, they are now unable to do—a complete system of dredging the river will be - carried out. By this means the necessary depth of water will be obtained, while tha navigation will be rendered less difficult by several of the sharp projections being removed,and a complete embankment of the river formed. Al ready the whole of St. Mary's Island, extending towards the Medway some two .or three miles, has been embanked by means of convict labour, and this will be continued towards the estuary of the Medway. The river from the dockyard to Garri son Point, at Sheerness, a distance of about 12 miles, will be deepened to form a channel 600 ft wide, and 27ft deep at half-tide, which will give 31ft at neaps, and 35ft at springs. At present the depth of water at low tide in Chatham harbour is only about 17ft., rendering it necessary for the Wellesley,. 72, and other vessels of war moored in the interior, to be lightened of all their heavy stores to prevent their taking the ground. In addition to the new basins and docks the proposed enlargement of Chatham dockyard will include the erection of large build ings for the steam factory, boiler-shop, and fitting shops, with the necessary stores , The en tire works, including the excavations for the proposed docks and b asins, will be executed by the c onvicts at Ch atham, who have been occupied for several mon ths Past in the manufacture of the bricks re quired in the undertaking.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. rreturns, in respect of assessed taxes to which he I was liable. The Attorney-General, Mr. J. Locke, and Mr. Bevan were for the Crown; and Mr. Sergeant Hayes and Mr. H. Matthews for the defendant. It appeared from the evidence that the defendant had omitted to return a man servant, a dog, and a tilted cart. The latter he was in the habit of using in going to and from his place of business to the railway station. Mr. Sergeant Hayes did not adduce any evidence on the part of the defence, but submitted that the defendant was not liable, as the terms of the act under which the information was filed applied only to the place where the defendant resided, and there was no proof that the defendant resided at either of his shops. He also contended that the cart was exempt from duty, and the defendant used it for the purpose of his business when he drove in it to and from the station, and that if the defendant had been guilty of the offence specified by the act, he was only liable to one penalty of £5O, and not to that sum for each of the alleged omissions, The learned baron said he would reserve the points for the Court above, but he should hold, as at present advised, that the defendant was liable to the whole four Penalties. Perhaps, however, the Crown would be satisfied with one of 150. Mr. J. Locke said he would press for the four penalties. Mr. Baron Wilde said he recollected when the Crown was not so severe. Mr. J. Locke said he would consent to accept two penalties if the defendant would not move the Court on the points of law. Mr. Sergeant Hayes could not agree to that pro posal. The Lord Chief Baron directed the jury to give a verdict for the Crown for £2OO. Verdict for the Crown accordingly. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL Y. GOBETZ. On Tuesday the Exhibition was thronged, and, as usual, three-fourths of the visitors had to return home more or lean completely wet through, for of course the rain set in as the time for leaving drew near. Cabs commanded fancy prices, and empty omnibuses returning to the building, though as far off even as Hyde-park or Piccadilly, were in the most gallant manner escaladed and carried by storm, and by dint of force compelled to take about one third more than their legal allowance. There are not half enough omnibuses plying to and from the Exhibition to carry the numbers willing to employ them. This is sufficiently shown by most omnibuses having actually quadrupled their fares, so that any enterprising proprietor of those vehicles may de pend that there is ample demand and custom for at least a hundred more of those conveyances than are now placed at the disposal of the public. On Tuesday the total attendance was 53,916, of which number 48,524 were by payment, and 5,392 by season tickets. His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and the Princesses Alice and Helena were among the early visitors, and remained throughout the greater part of the day. The nave and base ment courts of the building were, as usual, very crowded, and the Royal party confined their visit mainly to the galleries, where, little as they appear to be known, some of the most interesting collec tions in the whole Exhibition are shown. To these a long visit was made by his Royal Highness and his sisters, who also for a short time visited both the Annexes. When the space in the building was first allotted by some most unfortunate mistake the entire space of the whole edifice was given away among exhibi tors, nothing being reserved for stairways or pas sages for the public. When this error was disco vered a rearrangement of space was necessary, but r.-- ;,,c.,;..pa noon. thoug_h other fo reign countries were. The Prince of Prussia him self wrote to the Commissioners for additional space for the Prassian Court, and it was not given, because it could not possibly be given. At this period (last November) a little soreness was undoubt edly felt by some continental nations at the limited space allotted them, and at what they considered the preference given to France. One half of the building, it must be recollected, is occupied by Eng land and her colonies—that is to say, half the world. The other half is given to foreign nations, and of this other half more than two fifths were allotted to France, leaving less than three fifths for all other nations. So much for the refusal of space. The want of light and air may be explained in fewer words. When our neighbours took possession of the space which they have now occupied with such infinite credit to themselves and advantage to the Exhibition they proceeded to board it in from the basement floor up to the galleries, and from the gallery up to the roof of the nave. This proceed ing called forth such strong remonstrances from other countries, who were thus totally excluded from light and air, that the Royal Commissioners at last persuaded the French to reduce their parti tions by some four feet in height. But as to the manner in which they subsequently laid out the ground plan of their court the Commissioners could not unfortunately offer even advice. The conse quence is that it has been mapped out in such nar row and tortuous - passages that scarcely two people can pass abreast in many places, and as under these circumstances a seat would be a serious obstruction to visitors, very few benches have been put in the French court, and we believe no French exhibitor wishes any to be there at all. If they desired it, they have only to ask and they may fill their court with seats to-morrow. This was an information against the defendant, a jeweller, in Commercial-street, Whitechapel, for selling tickets in a foreign lottery. Mr. Welsby was for the Crown, and Mr. Hodg son for the defendant. The defendant, Mr. Gobetz, was proceeded against under G Geo. 111., c. 35, sec. 29, which dint Any nerson who should sell a ticket for a chance in any foreign lottery should De Haw. to . penalty of £2OO. It came to the knowledge of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue that the defen dant was advertising the sale of tickets in foreign lotteries, and by their direction two officers in the detective force went to his shop and purchased each a chance in the Royal Netherlands State Lottery, for a sum of 6s. 6d. The defendant had been warned not to deal in these tickets, but he continued to do so, and the Crown therefore proceeded against him for the recovery of two penalties. Mr. Hodgson, on the part of the defendant, sub mitted that the act did not apply to the sale in this country of tickets in a lottery established by lawful authority in a foreign country. Mr. Baron Wilde was clearly of opinion that the legislature intended to prevent gambling by the Queen's subjects in foreign lotteries by means of tickets sold in this country. Mr. Hodgson said, in extenuation of the defen dant's conduct, that he was a foreigner, and had been for some time in the habit of selling tickets in these lotteries without knowing it was illegal. He had also been fortified by the decision of Mr. Sergeant Storks, the judge of the Shoreditch County Court, who, in 1858, in a case brought before him, said he was clearly of opinion that the act only applied to lotteries got up in this country, and that if a lottery was legal in Holland they had no right to question the legality of the sale of tickets for it in this country. The defendant thought he was more justified in acting upon this decision than upon the interpretation given to the act by the police. The fact of the sale of the tickets not having been denied, The learned Judge directed the jury to find a verdict for the Crown. Mr. Welsby said he would be content with one penalty, and the jury returned a verdict for the Crown for £209. Leave was given to move upon the point of law raised by the learned counsel in the event of the £2OO being paid into court within a week. LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—Tune 18. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.-,Tune 18, COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. Edward Gregory, 34, was charged with the man slaughter of James Driscoll. ITIL• 0--r-- r—bieeut.a. TU. prisoner was de fended by Mr. Sleigh. The prisoner and the deceased it appeared WPrP employed with a number of other l abourers u p on the works of the Metropolitan Railway at King's cross, where a station is in the course of erection, the former being what is called the ganger of the others. They were both employed upon sumo gir ders, or ribs, upon which an arch was to be thrown over the line, on the evening of the 27th of May, when it appeared that a quarrel took place between them, and after some very angry words blows were exchanged between them. The deceased struck the prisoner on the arm and face with an iron instru ment called a podger, which he was using in his work. The struggle continued for some time, and at length, according to the evidence of two wit nesses, the prisoner laid hold of the deceased by the collar and one of his arms, lifted him off his legs, and deliberately dropped him down into the cut ting, a depth ot nearly 40 feet, and by the fall be received such severe injuries as occasioned his death very shortly afterwards. There was some contra diction, however, as to the circumstances under which the deceased fell or was thrown from the girder, and one of the witnesses stated that he saw the struggle, and. that he expected both the men would have fallen from the place where they were, and that he threw a rope over the deceased to save him, but he was very excited and pulled it off. An other witness also said that the deceased was the worse for liquor at the time of the occurrence, and that he had threatened the prisoner with personal violence. Mr. Sleigh in his address to the jury for the de fence endeavoured to show that the unfortunate oc currence was the result of accident, and argued that that this was more likely than that the prisoner should have lifted up the deceased, who was proved to be a man nearly as heavy . and powerful as him self, and have thrown him into the cutting in the way that had been stated. The learned Judge having summed up, the jury, after a short deliberation, found the prisoner g u ilty of manslaughter, but intimated that some of them entertained a doubt whether the prisoner intended to throw the deceased from the girder. Th e learned Judge, in passing sentence, said it was clear that the death of the deceased had been occasioned by the illegal violence of the prisoner, and it was fortunate for him that the jury did not believe that he had intentionally committed the wicked act of throv, ing his fellow workman from severe such a height, for if they had done so he should have felt it his duty to inflict a very punish ment, as such an offence would have bzen very little short of murder. He then sentenced the prisoner to twelve months' hard labour. KIRBY AND WIFE V. TILE CRYSTAL PALACE COMPANY. This was an action to recover compensation in damages for injuries sustained through the alleged negligence of the defendants. The defendants pleaded not goilty. Mr. Sergeant O'Brien and Mr. Powell were coun sel for the plaintiffs; Mr. Sergeant Ballantine and i Mr. T. S. Pritchard were counsel for the defendants. The plaintiff is a gas-fitter in Greek-street, Soho. On Good Friday, 1861, Mrs. Kirby, her sister, and a little boy went to the Crystal Palace. Upwards of 50,000 persons were present that day, and the crowding on the return of the visitors to the trains was very great. When the plaintif f 's wife got to a temporary barrier erected near the turnstiles the pressure was very great. The barrier was swayed by the pressure, and the foot of one of the upright posts came back on her foot. She fainted, and was after some little delay taken to the ladies' waiting room, and Dr. Thomas was called in. He found the foot and leg dreadfully contused and swollen. She was afterwards conveyed to her home and attended by Mr. Winstone, surgeon, of Haverstock hill. He was in daily attendance on her for nearly two months, and there was great difficulty in keep ing off mortification. He attended her altogether about four months, and his charge amounted to 136 15s. She still euffered much pain in her foot. Evidence was also given to show that the plaintiff had incurred additional expense to between £4O and £5O. The defence was that the barriers were properly erected by competent persons, and in a manner that experience had proved to be successful. There had been occasions when larger numbers were present and the ;barriers satisfactorily answered the pur poses required. There was great difficulty experi enced by the police in managing the crowd on this day. They were more unruly and troublesome than usual, and the company contended that this was an unavoidable accident, over which they had no con trol and for which they were not liable. They ex ceedingly regretted the accident, and as trustees for the shareholders they were bound to defend the action. Evidence was given by the police and, others to show the construction of the barriers and the un ruly character of the crowd. It was also stated in evidence that the barrier could not have swerved as described by the plaintiff's wife. The stakes driven into the ground were found secure the same night, but the top rail was broken. The pressure upon the barriers was very great for two hours. The learned Judge having summed up, The jury returned. a verdict for the defendants. BECKLEY V. LAURIE. Mr. Brett, Q.C., and Mr. H. James were counsel for the plaintiff; Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. R. Clarke were counsel for the defendant. The plaintiff is a saddle and harness maker, carrying on business in Oxford-street, next door to Messrs. Laurie and Marner, carriage makers, of which firm the defendant is the senior partner. The plaintiff purchased his , business from Mr. Laurie. He paid him £ 3OO a year rent for the pre mies,'and £l5O a year under an agreement relative to the purchase money The plaintiff made all the harness required by Messrs. Laurie and Marner, and the course of business between them was that the plaintiff gave bills as his payrneutb becum o duo, which were held and ren ewed b y Mr. Laurie until the settlement of the business accounts. They both banked at the Union Bank ; and, by inadvertence the defendant paid on e of the plaintiff's bills into the bank which the latter charged the plaintiff with. This reduced the plaintiff's balance to about £B. Not knowing what had been done the plain tiff drew a cheque for £5O in favour of one of his cre dit o rs, which, on presentation was not paid. The plaintiff.alleged that in consequence he had suf fered in the withdrawal of the confidence which that creditor formerly reposed in him. 'the Lord Chief Justice suggested a settlement of the case. There was no dispute as to th e facts, and it was evident that what the defendant had done was done in mistake. The learned counsel conferred together, but were unable to come to terms, and the case proceeded. Before the conclusion of the plaintiff's evidence, The Lord Chief Justice again interfered, observ ing that no possible good could result from the exposure that was likely to take place. It was to be regretted that respectable tradesmen had differed in this manner upon a matter that a mutual friend might have satisfactorily settled in five minutes. Both parties were at fault. There was no doubt the plaintiff had suffered some damage. The learned counsel on both sides said they were ready to abide by his lordship's decision. The Lord Chief Justice then directed a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, £25. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.) Edward James Smith, 31, letter carrier, was in dicted for stealing a post letter containing one £5OO Bank of England note, and also a valuable security. Mr. Clark and Mr. Metcalfe prosecuted. It appeared that the prisoner was a letter sorter and carrier, and was charged with being in posses. sion of a post letter containing money ; being told that him lodines would be searched, and asked if he had any other notes, he said he had one large one, and the officer there found a note for £5OO in two halves. The prisoner accounted for the possession of the note by stating that he found it in Finsbury square, and had kept it in hopes of getting a re ward. This note was afterwards found to have been sent as far back as January last year from a stock broker, at Sheffield, to a client in London, by post, but was not delivered. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty, and upon another indictment to which the prisoner pleaded guilty, sentence was deferred. John Smith, 26, labourer, was indicted for at tempting to murder James Jones. Mr. Clark and Mr. Orridge prosecuted. The prisoner, it will be remembered, was a con vict in the Milbank prison, and had attacked the prosecutor Jones, who was one of the w arders, and stabbed him with a weapon which he had c d o e n i; strutted out of a piece of iron t ied to a woo handle. him mad, he the excitement he was un der made The prisoner, who was not defended, sa id that having been in a lunatic asy lum. an d he was sentenced Thejury found him guilty, to penal servitude for life.

On Sunday, the 13th April last, after dinner, she was dressing her her room, 31, Charles-street, Westminster, her self neinshe observed the prisoner Come in with some thing like a knife or razor in his hand. He at once struck her with it across the forehead several times, until she bled profusely, and he afterwards beat her about the head with a stick until the bones of her head became sore and had been so ever since. A. surgeon, Dr. M'Cann, of Parliament-street, was sent for, and he directed her immediate removal to the hospital, where she remained for seven weeks. She had not had any quarrel with the prisoner, but he had told her before this happened that she should not live to see May day. Prisoner (sullenly)—l never used any such words. If I had wanted to take her life I should. have locked the door. I merely intended to draw some of her blood, and that is the fact of the matter (sensation). If she does not work at devilish arts or witchcraft I am willing to forfeit my life for her. The evidence of the prosecutrix was corroborated by her husband, a venerable-looking old man, who preyed that after the struggle he found on the table in the room where it occurred his own razor, which he had not seen or used for months. W. Marshall, constable 227, was then called and proved that from information he received he went to the residence of the prosecutrix, whom he found bleeding profusely from the head, and supporting herself with a chair by the side of the bed. The prisoner was there, and said, " I have done it, and Ido not wish to run away." The witness told him not to say anything to criminate himself, as the wounds might prove fatal. The prisoner he then saw drop a razor from his hand, and said he had done it with that and a stick, which witness would find under the table. Beth razor and stick were covered with blood. The prisoner added, " She (pointing to the prosecutrix) ought to have been dead years ago." Witness had the pea secutrix conveyed to the hospital on a stretcher, and took the prisoner in custody to the station-house. George Searle, police-sergeant 32 A, proved that he took the charge against the prisoner when he was brought in by the last witness. On hearing the charge witness used the expression, " Poor old woman !" On which the prisoner said, " Damn her, she ought to have been dead years ago. Serve her right. She has done me harm enough. I did not wish to kill the old lady outright. I wanted to see her blood, - which I have done. It is not for what I shall have to suffer in this world, but in the next." Mr. C. Clarke, house surgeon at the Westminster Hospital, proved the reception by him of the prose cutler and the nature of the injuries she received. Her life was in meat danger for some time, so much. eo that he had felt it his duty to send for a magis trate to take her evidence. The prisoner, when called on for his defence, re peated his former statement, as already given in ev idence, and added that the reas on why he shed. her blood was that she should not possess that power over him that she had done ; 200 years ago such a woman would have been put to death for withcraft without any ceremony. Mr. Baron Bramwell told the jury . that though a plea of insanity had not been raised in the present case, he would draw their attention to the laws by which that plea was regulated. Having done so, his lordship said it was for the jury to say, upon the facts proved before them, whether, applying those laws to which he had directed their attention, they were of opinion that the prisoner at the time knew what he was doing and what would be the conse quences. As, if so, he was responsible for the a c t he undoubtedly committed. The jury, after conferring for a few seconds, re turned a verdict of guilty of wounding with intent to murder. Mr. Baron Bramwell expressed his concurrence in the verdict, and sentenced the prisoner to be kept in penal servitude for life. Richard Henry Walker, a respectable-looking young man, surrendered in discharge of his bail, to answer an indictment for feloniously killing and slaying Charles Field. He was also charged on the coroner's inquisition, with the murder of Charles Field. Mr. Eyre Lloyd prosecuted, and Mr. Dickie de fended the prisoner. The facts of the case were exceedingly simple , The prisoner was the driver of a Hansom, and the deceased the driver of a four-wheel cab, and while in Piccadilly about 12 o'clock on the night of the Bth of May a quarrel ensued between them,which ended in the prisoner leaving his own vehicle and ascend ing the fore wheel of that of the deceased, seizing him by the collar or the leather belt to which his badge was attached, and in a struggle they both fell. to the ground, the head of the deceased coming in contact with the kerb-stone. He was conveyed to the hospital, where he died on the 25th May, of the injuries he had received. The prisoner when taken into custody said he was very sorry for what had. happened ; but the deceased had called him a liar, and had struck him with his whip before he (pri soner) had done anything to him. It was also ad mitted that tko prisour had visited deceased fr,._ q ucntly at the hospital, and had paid him every attention by contributing wine and other comfort to him. The Jury returned a verdict of guilty, and The learned Judge, after remarking upon the peculiarities of the case, sentenced him to one day's imprisonment. COUNTRY MA ItKLS. LYNN-T UESDAY.

LEICESTER, June 17.—There has been rather more doing in some departments of the hosiery trade this week, but still many operatives are but partially employed. At Loughborough and Hinckley there appears more activity. As manufacturers have for a long time past only worked to order, stocks on hand ere very limited. Yarns are firm, and prices remain extremely high, spinners producing cau tiously, so as not to overstock the market. There is not much alteration in wools, and but little business is doing. NOTTINGHAM, ISth. The lace trade in most classes of goods continues active. There is a good demand for all articles suitable for trimming, and shawls and mantles are in request, A little m')re is doing in foundation nets, but prices remain extremely low compared with the rates at which the raw material is selling. Cotton quillings meet a good demand, and silk quillings are an excellent sale. Foreign and home buyers have been in the market this week, and orders to a liberal amount have been given. Thero is a little doing for the Northern States of America, as also for Germany. In the hosiery trade there is some improvement, and several classes of goods are decidedly a better sale than for some time past. There are no stocks on hand. Yarns hold exceedingly dear. LORD CLIFDEN AND LADY STAFFORD._Theae now celebrated two-year-olds have been purchased by Lord St. Vincent, and will join his lordship's string at Beckhamp. ton. Many reports have been circulated as to the price paid for the Derby colt, but we are in a position to state that £5,000, with a contingency in the event of winning the great race at Epsom, was the actual sum. The price paid for the filly has not transpired. FATAL ENCOUNTER WITII A TIuLL.—A man named William Hartly was killed by a bull on Saturday se'nnight, at the High Gate Farm, near Kirkby Lonsdale. The deceased, who was cousin and servant with Mr. Geo. Banks, of that place, was left in charge of the farm in the absence of his master and the other servants, and shortly after tea went into the bull-house and brought out one of the bulls by its halter, intending to take it to water. On getting into the yard that bull set at him, knocked him down, and immediately began to gore him.2slVlrs. Banks at once ran out, and, taking a rake, got on to the wall, and tried to drive the bull off, but witho ut success. She ran to Overtown, about a quarter of a mile distant, and procured assistance, but on getting ba ck to the farm she found the bull had left the man and w as tossing his hat about, The unfortunate man was removed into the . house, but he never spoke, and in a few minutes breathed his last, Ho has left a wife and two children to deplore his melan choly death. The bull has since been destroyed.--Cum berland Pacquet. HULL-TUESDAY. --- A small supply of English wheat at market to-day, which was taken oat is to 2s per qr advance.
