(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) LIVERRPOOL ST. LEGER. North role Three ran. LAN-THIS DAY. COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary and a Common Jury.) SPICER V. SPICER. This was a petition presented by the husband, a surgeon, the son of a butcher, for the restitution of conjugal rights ; the respondent pleaded, in reply, cruelty, and prayed for a judicial separation. The respondent, Phoebe Grant Spicer, said she was mar ried to the petitioner in 1854. On the way to church Mr. Spicer took off the ring with which she had been previously married, and said it would do again, as he had not pur chased one. She expressed a wish that a new ring should be bought, and petitioner accordingly bought one in the Edgeware-road. After the marriage Spicer became very cool, and while they were at Killarney her husband struck her violently ; after that he had threatened her a ith a carving-knife, and told her he would lead her a hellish life. The reason he married her, he said, was for her money. Her husband, she said, ill..treated her from the hour they were married until the separation took place. in cross-examination she denied twitting her husband with being the son of a butcher, and also that she struck the broom against the fire-irons to imitate the marrow bones and cleavers. Thay travelled about a good deal, but she knew of no place at which they stopped at which she was not most grossly ill-treated by her husband. A Juror—On the occasion of the travelling who carried the purse ? Mrs. Spicer—l paid all the expenses. Mr. Day, a chemist and druggist, said in 1854 he was an assistant to Mr. Spicer. On a Sunday morning about six weeks after marriage, he recollected a cry of murder in the house. He went to see the cause of the disturbance and found Mr. and Mrs. Spicer quarrelling. He heard Mr. Spicer call his wife a fool, and afterwards saw him strike her. He had also heard him threaten to throw a dinner plate a her head. Mrs. Everett, a lodging-house keeper at Harwich, said, in 1855 Mr. and Mrs. Spicer occupied apartments in her house for about two weeks. One day she heard a cry of murder come from Mr. Spicer's room: She (witness) went to see what was the matter, and found them both fighting on the floor. Mr. Spicer got up as she was enter ing, and said to his wife " I'll do for you yet." He also called her names unfit for publication. (The case was proceeding when we went to press.) POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY AT THE OXFORD MUSIC HALL.—George Parker, a well-dressed young man, from Long Millgate, Manchester, described as a brushmaker, was charged with stealing a watch, of the value of £lB, at the Oxford Music Hall. Oxford-street. Richard Loten, butler to Mr. Henry Killick, of Walton Hall, near Eccleshall, Staffordshire, said at ten the pre vious night he went to the Oxford Music Hall, in company of four females, and had not been in the hall more than five minutes when he felt a twitch at his watch-chain, and saw the prisoner, who had been pressing against him, pass his hand from his waistcoat-pocket, and at the same time saw his chain fall, and his watch was gone. He immediately seized the prisoner's hands, but the watch was not in them. The place was very crowded, and the prisoner managed to get his hands down in front of him. He charged the prisoner with stealing his watch, and with ap parent surprise he exclaimed "What do you mean s" and he then gave the prisoner in charge. In answer to kr. Knox, prosecutor said he had his watch safe on entering the hall, as he looked at it in the entrance to see the time, and put it back safe in his pocket. He had noticed the prisoner pressing against him, but thought he could not help it. The watch was of the value. of £lB. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF COMMONS-THIS DAY. The SPEAKER did not take the chair until half-past twelve o'clock, the house not having been constituted be `'ore. The Lords amendments to the following bills were agreed to, and the bills were ordered for third reading : Carmarthen and Cardigan Railway Bill —Kettering and Thrapstone Railway Bill—Metropolitan. Meat and Poultry Market (Western Approach) Bill—Stafford and Uttoxeter Railway Bill. The Aberystwith and Welsh Coast Railway Bill (Lords), and the Polteney harbour bill were read a third time, and passed. WEIGHTS AND MEASURES (IRELAND) ACT (1860) AMENDMENT BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, and clauses 1,2, and 3 were agreed to. On the 4th clause, Sir H. BRUCE moved an amendment to the effect that the power of appointing inspectors should be transferred to the grand jury of the county instead of the Lord Lieu tenant. Mr. MAGUIRE said he had supposed the object of the right hon. baronet (Sir It. Peel) was to particularise the bill, and he thought this provision would have a contrary effect. He wished the bill to pass, because he considered it would prove a beneficial measure. .The fact was, that the magistrates ere gradually losing their power over the con stabulary, who were growing daily more a military than a civil power, and yet this bill proposed to extend the power of that force. After some discussion, Sir R. PEEL said that he was anxious to meet the views of hon. members. He would agree to a provision by which the local justices would be substituted for the Lord Lieu tenant in the appointment of inspectors, on condition that the former made the appointment within a month. If, however, they failed to do so, then the Lord Lieutenant should have the power with which this bill proposed to invest him. Mr, MAGUIRE considered that the compromise of the right hon. baronet should be accepted. Other hon. members dissented, and the c3mmittee divided on the amendment— Ayes Noes Majority —2l In cross-examination by Mr. Edward Louis, of Great Marlborough-street, prosecutor said there was a great crowd inside, but none at the entrance. The watch was wrenched from the ring, which was afterwards picked up. Alice Bramall, of Heaton Norris, said she was in com pany with the prosecutor, and confirmed a portion of the prosecutor's evidence. Mr. Robert Lister, who is employed at the Oxford Music Hall in keeping order, said he picked up the ring of the watch near the spot where the robbery was said to have taken place, and handed it to the sergeant. Robert Carter, 117 E, proved taking the prisoner into custody. The prisoner said he was from Manchester, and had an excursion return ticket. The amendment was accordingly negatived, and the clause, with the alteration proposed by Sir R. Pool ; was agreed to. LEFT SITTING. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—YESTERDAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. NEW MEMBER. Mr. WYNN, who was introduced by Lord Hotham and Mr. Omtby Gore, took the oaths and his seat on his election for Montgomeryshire. NIGHT POACHING PREVENTION BILL. Sir B. LEIGHTON briefly proposed the second reading of this bill. Mr. MAIN WARING second the motion. Sir G. GREY said he was surprised at the second read ing of this bill being thus proposed, as it had been printed only that day. He considered that such a measure should have the fullest consideration. The bill increased to a very considerable extent the strengthening of the game laws, and gave the police very arbitrary powers in de taining persons suspected of the unlawful possession of fire-arms or game. It did not, however, define what con stituted unlawful possession, which was left to individual judgment. He trusted that the house, while he admitted that the subject required the attention of legislation, would agree with him that it was one which required great con sideration. He was not aware that there were any cir cumstances which required the passing of a bill like the present, which, on the face of it, was hastily framed. His - attention had been directed to the subject last year, by the receipt of a memorial from 28 chief constables, stating that they were most anxious that the services of the police should not be required directly or indirectly in the preservation of game. (Hear.) He then called for a return, which was furnished, and from which it appeared that, ac cording to the statement of ten chief constables, the murders arising out of poaching affrays for two years amounted to nil. (Hear, hear.) It could not, however, be denied that in two or three counties there were frequent collisions between gamekeepers and poachers. Having re ferred to the existing game laws, the conflicting judicial decisions arising out of the game laws, he analysed in detail the provisions of the bill and concluded by appealing to the hon. baronet to withdraw it for the present. Sir H. STRACEY said that the arguments of the right hon. baronet (Sir G. Grey) were intended to throw ridicule on the bill. He had considerable experience on this sub ject, having acted for several years as a magistrate, and he considered that it was desirable to extend the powers of the police, and he referred to the statements of certain competent persons to show the extent of poaching and the desperate character of persons engaged in that pursuit. It appeared that several of those poachers were men who had been convicted thieves, and some of them had been sentenced to penal servitude. In some in stances persons were detected in the possession of hares and pheasants whose insides were stuffed with silver forks and knives. (Laughter.) In the re turns that were made to the Home-office there was no reference made to the poaching committed out of season, and according to judicial statistics the crime had considerably increased. He contended that by the course the right hon. baronet (Sir G. Grey) pursued he was throwing the mantle of protection over poachers—(Oh, oh) —and by doing so, over thieves. (Oh, oh.) He thought the police were the most proper body to suppress poaching, and the right hon. baronet (Sir G. Grey), by not introducing or supporting a curative measure, would be responsible for any murdeis arising out of poaching this year. Mr. FOSTER opposed the bill, which he considered would convert policemen into gamekeepers. By the pre sent law they were compelled to abstain from interference in the preservation of game, which rendered them more effi cient in the discharge of their present duties. (Hear, hear.) He denied that poachers should be regarded generally as thieves, and an opinion prevailed that wild game was not regarded in the same light as other property. In his judg ment nothing that Parliament could do would alter that opinion. He concluded by moving that the bill be read a second time this day three months. Mr. HU NT supported the bill, as he thought any of its defects could be remedied in committee. He alluded to the extent to which poaching existed in his county (Northamp tonshire), and said that if any of the foreigners in this country would accompany him to Northamptonshire he would show him an extraordinary spectacle, namely, persons taking railway tickets and carrying openly all the impi.ements for poaching. If a foreigner were told that the object of these men was to rob persons of their just pro perty, and, if necessary to murder those who were employed to protect that property, they would naturally express their surprise that the police were not permitted to prevent rob bery and possible murder. (Hear, hear.) He advocated the passing of the bill for one year, and then if it were found to work well, they could pass a continuation bill, or if otherwise, they could deal with the subject by some other measure. Mr. Lewis addressed the magistrate at some length, con tending that although no doubt the prosecutor had been robbed of his watch, there was not sufficient proof that the prisoner stole it. Mr. Lewis then referreti to the case in which a gentleman had been charged at tle Westminster Pclice•court, but subsequently discharged. Mr. Knox said in that case the prisoner lied respectable witnesses to character, and asked if the prisoner had any, for, as far as he knew at present, he might be the most re spectable young man in Manchester, or the biggest thief. 'With the view of inquiring into the prisoner's character he would remand him for a week, and the poli,le at Manches ter could be communicated with. The prisoner was remanded for a week. document supported his charge of having endeavoured to throw ridicule on that important subject, which affected the morals of the country and the rights of property. (Hear.) To show to what extent poaching prevailed in some partsof the country, he referred to reliable statements to show that poachers were frequently seen returning by railway laden' with booty, with whom the police were not allowed to interfere. He thought that his right hon. friend (Mr. Henley) had placed this question on a very low ground, when he said that the bill would render it necessary to double the police, and to increase the expense of Govern ment. For the objects in view, he thought such considera tions were not entitled to any weight. He referred to returns supplied by the police of Worcestershire in order to show that in that county there were 695 living ooca sionally by poaching, and 520 who depended entirely on that means of subsistence. After a few words from Sir G. GREY, Mr. BASS said that in the counties with which he was acquainted night poaching was increasing. With regard to the power proposed to be given to the police, he had to remind the house that they had more power in reference to the preservation of salmon than it was proposed to give them under this bill. Mr, CAIRD opposed the bill. It extended to Ireland and Scotland, neither of which countries hacl asked for it. He should like to know what the farmers said to the bill. They did not object to a moderate quantity of game, but it was an excessive preserving of game that tempted poachers. Mr. BARROW believed that night poaching was in creasing, and ought to be diminished, but he denied that this bill would do it. Sir: B. LEIGHTON and Mr. STANILAND supported the bill. Mr. NEWDEGA.TE feared that if the bill were rejected without consideration, the house might be said to give a direct encouragement to packers. Although he did not approve of the provisions of the bill, he hoped the Govern ment would allow it to be read a second time. Mr. SCULLY rose, and was greeted with a loud shout. He objected to the bill, but would pair off, if members would consent to strike out the word Ireland from it. He never voted with the Government, but he hoped the Government would vote with him on this occasion. (Laughter.) The house divided— For the second reading Against it Majority The bill was read a second time. LEASES, &c., INCUMBENTS RESTRICTION ACT AMENDMENT BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed.

Mr. HENLEY said the right hon baronet (Sir G. Grey) had dealt efficiently with the provisions of the bill, and he (Mr Henley) would confine himself to its principle. Before the house legislated on any particular subject, it was necessary that a case should be made out for such legislation, which he denied had been done in the present case. Mr. HUNT—It is admitted. Mr. HENLEY was prepared to admit that there was such an increase in the crime of poaching as called for legislation on the subject, and he thought that this bill would have a directly contrary effect on the repression of poaching.

No matter how plain your cook may be, so long as your dinner is well dressed. A few compliments go agi eat way. A little savoury pale is quite enough. Try too many, and you'll find they'll prove heavy. When the ladies retire from the dinner-table, it is not usual for you (supposing you to be a gentleman) to retire with them. In this instance the same law extends to the mistress as to the servants :—" No Followers Allowed." In the hands of an inferior artiste, whether an omelette turns out good or bad is quite a matter of toss up. It is the same with a pancake. Keep ill-natured people from your table, as you would sour fruit. They are sure to disagree with every one.

ANOTHER IRRUPTION OF THE FLEET SEWER.— serious outbreak of th e Fl ee t Yesterday afternoo n another Sewer and inu ndation of the works co nsequent upon the heavy s t orm w i t h h of the Metr o p o lit an R P lace, s is was visited. Between f our an d fi ve o ' c l o ck, as the workmen em p lo y ed at the new station erect— ing at gi n g's•cross and uncompleted portion of th e t unne l at th e corner of Acton - street, Bs gnigge-wells-r oa d, wer e atyhem took metropolis b us y at their labour, they were alarmed by a sudden rush of water into the works. A warning cry was in stantly raised, and the men made their escape in all directions. So rapid, however, was the influx of the water, that those at the bottom of the works were up to their knees before they could extricate themselves, and were obliged to leave their clothes and tools behind them. In less than ten minutes the water was 15 feet deep, reaching up to the roadway, and displacing and cracking the huge timber shores like matchwood. The cellar s and basements of the houses at Battle -bridge were speedily overflowed, and the utmost alarm prevailed. Upon inquiry into the cause of this irruption of the water, it was found that the storm-water pouring down from the high land had broken through the wall of the diverting sewer at the corner of Caledonia-street, York-road, and, finding its way into the channel of the old sewer, had forced an en tranc into the railway works. In about an hour, the flow of the storm-water having subsided, a body of labourers were set to work to repair the breakage, which it is hoped will be effected by an early hour this morning.
