Mr. EDWARD DAVIESON, Surgeon-Dentist, has introduced a material for the construction of ARTIFICIA L TEETH so extraor dinary that nature appears to have made good the ravages of TIME, DISEAkE, or ACCIDENT, and when fitted detec tion is impossible even though the wearer's mouth be closely examined. fhe price is so moderate that it is within the reach of all, and it is fitted without springs or other unsightly fastenings. The removal of stumps is unnecessary, and thus all pain is avoided.

It was held, indeed, formerrly that even the laws of nature were suspended. The birds of the , air, the leaves of the forest, and the dumb animals of the field could talk of the matter. The stair of man's blood could never be.effaced. It cried from the ground against the murderei till. retribution over took him, and, even when all these signs nod por tents had proved unavailing, there was a last re source which coulil never fail. An irresistible inipulse turned the murderer against hiniself. The consciousness of guilt, either embodied in' the apparition of • his victim or - presented 'in some dreadful form, beset him night and day, .611, at length, in despair and exhaustion, he surrendered himself to j ust i ce, or ot h erw i se pa id t h e so l emn forfeit of lif e f or l i fe.

In. those cases there is always a possibility of origi nalßa ataistlftsatisfaction misconception. cattionan oyf a rate, ju. y really violated, and therefore, whatever may be the weight of suspicion, there is no solid ground to build upon. Very different, however, is, the..u.sp.ext i - tPhea thatr Perhaps a t np h os e tthbe sanctuaryereebeen proved of life was was no murder of the case in examplei which have been recently presented. There it is certain there was murder — murder of the most foul and barbarous kind, and yet the criminals remain undetected up to this very hour. It is positively certain that the unfortunate widow at Stepney did not beat ont her own brains, and that the poor little child at Road did not cut its own throat. We may even say that, on the face of things, it appears as if these crimes ought both to have admitted of discovery with more than ordi nary ease ; whereas both remain shrouded in dark ness still. i<[C 3' 4 + x: .

The capital account showed that £479,186 had been received and £479,135 expended, leaving a balance of £5l. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, congratulated the proprietors on the increas ing prosperity of the undertaking. Resolutions were passed adopting the report, de claring a dividend at the'rate of 3 per cent. per annum for the half-year ending the 30th of June, 'and re-electing the retiring directors and auditor. A vote of thanks to the chairman closed the pro ceedings. The murder at Stepney was committed, in one respect, under circumstances undoubtedly favour able to the escape of the assassin. So secluded and unsocial were the habits of the victim that it was not until the fourth day after her death that the fact became known. That at least appears to be the necessary inference from the evidence obtained. Mrs. Emsley was seen alive at the window of her own house about 7 o'clock in the evening of Monday, the 13th of August. She was seen by two witnesses, both of whom lived exactly opposite her house. She was never seen alive afterwards, nor could any access be obtained to her dwelling, though many attempts were made, from which facts, as well as frqm the state in which the corpse was found, it is reason able to conclude that such an interval elapsed be tween the deed and its discovery. Excepting, how ever, for this one circumstance, all the chances of e populous and b k u n s o y w t n h , o r a o n u d g I t fthe case would s eem t o t e ll aga i ns t t h e mur derer. l a l l, rehwohueseresttohoe deceased a a sed w s w n d abutted, besides, on one of the principal arteries of London. Nothing, indeed, could be more marked than the publicity of the situation. The deed, again, was committed, in all probability, before dark, for it was particularly noticed that the shutters of the front parlour, which the deceased used to close about dusk, were not closed on the fatal evening— a fact plainly suggesting that her life was taken before the hour of closing. That time—the period between 7 o'clock and dusk, in the month of August, is precisely the time when a street like Grove-road would be most full of people, looking about them, loitering on the pavement, or standing at their own doors for the coolness of the air. It seems clear, indeed, from an accumulation of cir cumstances, that this must have been the hour at which the murder was done, for the deceased was found lying in the top room of the house, and fully dressed, whereas her bedroom was on the first floor, so that she had not retired to rest. The doors, too, were found unlocked and merely on the latch, showing that no violence had been employed to effect an entry. The obvious conclusion from all this is, that the murderer must have been admitted to the house before it was shut up for the evening, at an hour, probably,when the unfortunate woman, suspicious as she was, was willing to do business. Assuming, too, that these inferemees arc correct, the last day's inquest brought to light a fact of an extra ordinary character. A witness living nearly opposite deposed that on the Tuesday morning she saw the window of the top front room opened. " I mean," she added, " I saw it moved by a hand." This would prove either that the murderer was in the house ail night, or that he returned in the morn ing, and deliberately, for some purpose of his own, opened the window of the room in which his victim lay. And all, this occurs in a neighbourhood so populous and so observant, that we are told when the poor woman was last seen, and how her house looked, and who came to knock at her door hour after hour, and day by day Of the Road murder we can only say that for iniquity and mystery it is without a parallel. In that case none of the common incentives to the crime could have existed. The poor little victim had no property to be carried off, and could have created no enemies. It seems, indeed, as if he must have been seized in his sleep, and put out of the world before he could wake to consciousness. If, however, it is truly alleged that the house was not forcibly entered from the outside on the night of the murder, the conclusion becomes inevitable that some person under that roof was concerned in the deed. How strongly these persuasions are enter tained will have been seen from a memorial which we recently published, and which prays the H°' Secretary to grant a special commission for inve_f o. l In tl; a crime h.wTinhn.gecot gating a crime so strangely concealed- s ou t of a room in 'which its realists rest upon the fact that the area ofts"re , as t h e manifestly circumscribed, and urge down stairs into the found tha among criminal or an accomplice must b ,ht to effect the tne pre:lift:lns certain specified persons, the law noout by ordinary discovery by extraordinary means.

The adjournment was even sine die, simply, as the coroner remarked, because there was no such evidence in his possession as would justify him in fixing a time for resuming the investigation. We cannot but regard *hese ex amples as exceedingly discouraging, and we hardly know, indeed, what interpretation to put upon them. cas T e h s. at Tit h ri ne q vuerYl Are murderers more subtle than formerly, or the officers of justice less acute ? What are the con ditions which are turning the balance of chances in favour of the criminal ? To these questions we see no obvious reply •, but it deeply concerns the interests of society and the character of the nation that murder should be deprived of that impunity which it seems beginning to enjoy. —Times. A HUMAN SACRIFICE.—A strange affair is related in the Russian journals :—At Moscow, 10 nights back, the occupiers of a vast house at the corner of Great West-street were awakened by the glare and crackling of a fire, and on getting up found that a large pile of fuel, consisting of logs of fir trees which had been collected in the courtyard,. was in flames. The conflagration was extinguished as qiuckly as possible. On examining the remains of the fire, the cal cined bones of a woman were found, and it turned out that a widow, named Theleska T—, about 40 years of age, who had li , ed in the house, had disappeared. Nothing could be heard of this woman, and as she had repeatedly declared that in these times the sacrifice of human victims was neces sary to appease the wrath of God against sinners, the con clusien was come to that she had lighted up the fire ena placed herself in the midst of it to be consumed.

INNS OF Cf)UBT. The Council of Legal Education have issued the following rules for the public examination of the students to be held on the 30th and 31st of Octo ber, and the Ist of November, 1860. r The attention of the students is directed to the following riles of the Inns of Court " As an inducement to students to propose themselves for examination, studentships shall be founded of 50 guineas per annum each, to continue for a period of three years, and one such studentship shall be conferred on the most distin guished student at each public examination ; and, further, the examiners shall select and certify the names of three other students, who shall have passed the next best exami nations; and the Inns of Court to which such students be• , long may, if desired, dispense with any terms, not exceed ing two, that may remain,to be kept by such students pre viously to their being called to the Bar ; provided that the examiners shall not be obliged to confer -or grant any stu dentship or certificate unless they shall be of opinion that the examination of the students they select has been such as entitles them thereto. " At every call to the bar those students who have passed a public examination, and either obtained a studentship or a certificate of honour, shall take rank in seniority over all other students who shall be called on the same My. "No student shall be eligible to be called to the Bar who shall not either have attended during one whole year the lectures of two of the Readers, or have satisfactorily passed a public examination. " RULES FOR THE PUBLIC EXAMINATION. OF CANDI DATES FOR HONOURS, OR CERTIFICATES ENTITLING STUDENTS TO BE CALLED TO THE BAR. " An examination will be held in Michaelmas Term next, to which a student of any of the Inns of Court, who is de sirous of becoming a candidate for a s' udentship or honours, or of obtaining a certificate of fitness for being called to the Bar, will be admissible. " Each student proposing to submit himself for exami nation will be required to enter his name at the Treasurer's office of the Inn of Court to which he belongs on or before Tuesday, the 23d of October next ; and he will further be required to state in writing whether his object in offering himself for examination is to compete for a studentship or other honourable distinction, or whether he is merely de sirous of obtaining a certificate preliminary to a call to the Bar. " The examination will commence on Tuesday, the 30th day of October next, and will be continued en the Wednes day and Thursday following. "It will take place in the Benchers' Reading-room of Lincoln's-inn, and the doors will be closed 10 minutes after the time appointed for the commencement of the examina tion. "The examinations by printed questions will be conducted in the following order : "Tuesday morning, the 30th of October, at half-past 9, on constitutional law and legal history; in the afternoon, at half-past 1, on equity.

" Thursday morning, the Ist of November, at half-past 9, on jurisprudence and the civil law. In the afternoon, at half-past 1, a paper will be given to the students including questions bearing upon all the foregoing subjects of exami nation. _ _ . "The oral examination will be conducted in the same order, during the same hours, and on the same subjects as those already marked out for the examination by printed questions, excep: - , that on Thursday afternoon there will be no oral examination. "The oral examination of each student will be conducted apart from other students, and the character of that exami nation will vary according as the student is a candidate for honours or for a studentship, or desirous to obtain a certificate. "The oral examination and printed questions will be founded on the books below mentioned ; regard being had, however, to the particular object with a view to which the student presents himself for examination. "In determining the question whether a student has passed the examination in such a manner as to entitle him to be called to the Bar, the examiners will principally have regard to the general knowledge of law and jurisprudence which he has displayed. " A student may present himself at any number of exa minations until he shall have obtained a certificate. overt: " Any student who shall obtain a certificate may presen himself a second time for examination as a candidate for the studentship, but only at one of the three examinations immediately succeeding that at which he shall have ob tained such certificate ; provided that if any student so pre senting himself shall not succeed in obtaining the student ship, his name shall not appear in the list. " Students who have kept more than 11 terms shall not be admitted to an examiEntion for the studentship.

May, arrived at Spithead early yesterday morning from Greenhithe, on her way to join the Zambesi expe• dition under Dr. Livingstone. The Emerald, 51, screw, Capt. A. Cumming, steamed into Portsmouth harbour yesterday morn ing at high water from Spithead. She will be placed in No. 7 dock to repair any damage she may have received on the occasion of her recent mishap in Alderney harbour. The following vessels are in the steam basins and docks of Portsmouth yard :—ln the steam basin, the Prince of Wales, 131, screw three-decker—ma chinery on board and ready for steam trial ; Prin cess Royal ; 91, screw, complete in steam department, nearly so at the hands of the mast-rigger, and ready for immediate commission ; the Frederick William, 86, screw, in a forward state in her steam department. This vessel and the Prince of Wales are new, recently launched in this dockyard, and will probably be the laat vese,et of their class that, will be seen in the same basin under similar cir cumstances. The Immortalit44, sere w,is complete in machinery and rigging ; has the greater part of her stores on board, the whole of her armament and shot, and makes her official trial of speed at the measured mile in Stoke's Bays to-morrow. The Sutlej, 51, screw, one of the finest of the converted class, is also nearly complete in machinery, and will li be ready for her official trial very shortly. The Pelican, 17, screw, recently launched from Pem broke yard, is receiving her machinery, &c. The Cygent, 6, screw; new, is coppered, and is complet ing in her engineering department. The Medea, 6, and 'Stromboli, 6, paddles, have both undergone extensive repairs to hulls and machinery, and are ready for commission. The Vigilant, 6, screw, has had a thorough overhaul to hull and machinery, and is now reshipping the latter. The Minx, screw, tank vessel, has just undocked from No. 8 dock, and is preparing to resume her duties at Port land. In the two docks connected with the basin are the Eagle, 50, sailing frigate, Commander Strode, and the Gorgon, 6, paddle, Commander B. C. Pim. Of the old docks in the yard—in No. 1 the old frigate Briton is breaking up. In No. 2 the Harrier, 17, screw, is receiving her coat of paint on the comple tion of her repairs at the hands of the shipwrights' department. In No. 3, the Prince Regent, 90, is undergoing conversion to a screw. In No. 4 the Volcano, paddle, floating factory, is being coppered and completing her repairs. In No. 5 the Coquette, 6, screw, is undergoing repairs, which appear to be come more extensive in their nature every day. In No. 9 the Octavia, 51, is undergoing conversion to a screw. Omitting the Gorgon, the Eagle, and the Minx from the list as being vessels already in com mission, the remaining vessels enumerated represent a force of 633 guns, propelled by a steam power of 5,350 horses. The screw steam coastguard ship Hogue, 60, Capt. R. J. J. G. Macdonald, having had defects made good, and having been supplied with a new bowsprit, was removed from Keyham basin on Saturday, and placed at her sailing moorings in Hamoaze. The paddle steam storeship Rhadamanthus, 4, F. N. Sturdee, master-commander, from Woolwich, with marine engine gear, &c., was hauled on Satur day into Keyham basin, Plymouth, where hercargo will be discharged with all speed, and she will then be placed alongside the Royal William Victualling yard to load provisions for that part of the Channel fleet which is at Milford. The hired transport Salamanca, Capt. Livesay, sailed from Plymouth on Saturday with soldiers, soldiers' wives, and families for the East Indies. The hired shipwright W. Clapp, who rescued. James Gray, belonging to the Steam Ordinary, Dovonport, fiem drowning, bn Thursday last, is for his gallant conduct to be placed on the established list when the first vacancy occurs. The War Department steniner Balaklava. Mr. Wm. Pellatt, master in command, sailed froth Wool wich on Saturday, laden with military stores for the West, calling at Sheerness. The hired transport Venilia, with a heavy freight of hutting and building materials, was towed down the river on Saturday from Woolwich Ar senal, on her voyage to the Cape of Good Hope. The "Etna, 16, 200 horse-power, another of the steam floating batteries which are now undergoing repair at Chatham dockyard, has been completed at that establishment, and was hauled out of the 2d dock on Saturday. Daring the time this floating battery was in the hands of the shipwrights she underwent a thorough repair, and every defect was made good. The iron sheathing with which the hull is covered has been removed, and the bottom coated with com position. The Trusty, 14, 150 horse-power, another of the floating batteries, will be taken into the dock vacated by the 'Etna this day, to be overhauled and repaired., The Adder, paddlewheel steamer, M. J. Minchin, master-commander, was put out of No. 2, dock, at Chatham, on Saturday afternoon, having been re paired and painted. The Duke of Somerset, Rear-Admiral the Hon. F. T. Pelham, C. 8., C. 8., Capt. Charles Eden, and Mr. S. Whitbread, M.P., arrived at Holyhead on. Thursday morning from the metropolis, to com mence, as Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, the customary autumn tour of inspection. Rear- Admiral Lord C. Paget, C. 8., as First Secretary, joined their lordships on Friday morning from his seat in the principality. During several hours that day their lordships were engaged in a thorough inspection of the public works in progress at that harbour. Their lordships left Holyhead early on Saturday morning for Queenstown. Orders were on Saturday received at Chatham directing 275 men of the East India . troops to be held in readiness to embark at Gravesend for Madras in the Barham; 50 of the ' . East India recruits to embark at Gravesend in the Malabar for d roalcutta ; 'and 103 non-commissioned officers and men of the 2d battalion, 14th Regiment to embark at Cork for Auckland. The George Kidd has also been char tered to convey troops to the Mauritius, but the corps that are to proceed in that vessel have not been named. Ensigns C. F. Barry and J. Sealy, lstWestlndia Regiment, left Chatham garrison on Saturday, and embarked on board the West India mail steamer for the Baliamas, to join head-quarters. The detachments of Royal Artillery, Royal En gineers, and the St. Helena Regiment selected to proceed to St. Helena are ordered to embark at Gravesend, on board the Akbar, on the 10th inst. In securing land in the neighbourhood of Ply mouth for the requirements of the new fortifica tions, the Board of Ordnance appears to be adopting a very prudent and economical course. Where land is absolutely necessary for the site of a fort it is purchased; but when a field is not required imme diately for building purposes, and it falls'within the range of the proposed fortified lines, the Govern ment buys at once the right of building thereon and thus prevents any unsuitable erection. The owner continues -in undisturbed possession, and uses the field as now for pasture or farming purposes. Should the site, however, be required hereafter, the Government of the day will have to pay for if only the then current agricultural value of the land. The following appointments have been made at the Admiralty :—Lieut. I. N. Croke to the Aga memnon ; H. C. Sedmond, master, to the Asia, for the Harrier; Arthur Thomas, master, to the Cum berland, for the Miranda; John Gray (e), surg., to the Spiteful ; Arch. L. Archer, M.D., surg., to the Ariel ; J. Johnstone, surg., to the Foxhound; D. Porteous, M.D., assist.-surg,, to the Landrail ; C. L. Cunningham, acting assist.-surg., to the Spiteful; R. F. Ellis, master's assist., to the E igar ; Wm. Brenner, acting third-class assist.-engineer, to the Cumberland, for service in the Myrtle ; Wm. Scott, acting third-class assist.-engineer, to the Indus, for service in the Redwing ; and T. Cape, acting third class-assist.-engineer, to the Algiers. „ [ADVERTISEMENT.I—Honoway's Pills.—Spasms, flatu lency, constipation.—So many persons suffer from these disorders that a description of them is unnecessary, but the recommendation to take Holloway's pills for the cure of disordered digestion will be repaid with gratitude by all who give them a single trial. No medicine will so safely and speedily restore a deranged stomach or torpid liver to order. No other preparation will so effectually and healthily conduct digestion—so that spasms, flatulency, and other torments of dyspepsia cannot by any possibility arise, or if present, will be soon cured. The power of these pills in re moving acidity of the stomach, sick headache, biliousness, diarrhoea, dysentery, and debility is wonderful. They act as tonics, -alteratives, and general regenerators of the frames WIIITEHAVEN JUNCTION. The 31st half-yearly meeting of this company , was held in the new offices, Whitehaven, on Thurs day, the Earl of Lonsdale in the chair. The report stated that the gross receipts of the company for the half-year ending the 30th of June last had been £16,969, and the total expenditure £9,007. The gross receipts exhibited an increase of £3,237 over those of the corresponding period of 1859. The revenue had again been charged with £l,OOO towards the renewal of the permanent way. The balance available for dividend, after the pay ment of interest or mortgages, preferences shares, and all other charges, was £5,397. From this sum the directors recommended a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent, per annum, and that £l,OOO be car ried to the contingency fund. This fund would then amount to £3,000. A balance of £397 would remain *to the credit of the current half-year. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, congratulated the shareholders on the im proved position of the company. Mr. MILLER seconded the motion, and it was adopted. Mr. BRAGG moved that a dividend of 16s. per share, less income tax, be paid on the 13th of September. Mr. CAMERON seconded the motion, which was agreed to. Messrs. W. B. Clarke, W. Lamb, and W. John son were re-elected directors, and Mr. R. Gibson auditor. The proceedings. then terminated. P OLIC 3 IN TEL LIG ENCE—Sept. 1. SOUTHWARK.--ALLEGED MURDER OF A WIFE BY HER HUSBAND.—At a late hour on Saturday Patrick M'Carthy, a middle-aged man, described as a labourer, was brought before Mr. Burcham by Sergeant M'Cloud, charged with causing the death of his wife by violence. The officer said that he was on duty in Redcross street, Southwark, about one o'clock on Saturday morning, when he was called to No. 7, Thorn's buildings, and in the upstairs front room he per ceived a female lying dead on a bed. The prisoner was there, and several other persons, and witness asked him whether he was her husband. He said that he was, and that it was a bad job for him, but he did not use any violence. Witness told him he must take him into custody, and as the prisoner was about to say something he gave him a caution. The prisoner then said that his wife came home drunk and fell down. Mr. Burcham asked whether the woman appeared to have died recently ? Sergeant M'Cloud replied that she was quite cold when he was called in, and appeared to have been dead three or four hours. Before leaving the house the prisoner said that he had severely injured one of his feet, and when his wife came in he was sitting on the edge of the bed bathing the foot. She had a child in her arms, and she asked him to take it. He told her that he could not take it just then, and she slapped him on the head. He put his hand up and pushed her away. She fell down, and her head came in contact with a large box. She vomited very much, and he immediately took the child from her, and tried to lift her up. but his foot being so bad he could not, consequently he called in a man from tbe lower part of the house, and then he found her to be insensible. They bathed her temples and rubbed her hands, and finding that she did not re vive he sent for a doctor, who immediately at tended, and found she was dead. Mr. Burcham—W ere there marks of violence on the body ? Sergeant M'Cloud—l did not perceive any. Hu nose appeared to have bled very much. Dr. Leach attAndA her, but he is not.preseut. Mr. Burcham (to the prisoner)—You have heard what the officer has stated. Have you any questions to a , ..1c. him ? Prisoner—No, sir. It's all true what he stated. My feet are very sore, and while I was bathing them she came in, and I was afraid she would fall against me, and I put up my hand to keep her off, when she fell down. John M'Carthy, a lad about eight years of age, son of the prisoner and the deceased, said he was at home when his mother came in, and she was very passionate. She wanted father to take the child, and he pushed her, and she fell backwards against the large clothes box. She never spoke afterwards. Helen M'Carthy said—l am in service. The de ceased is my sister, and unfortunately she has lately been much addicted to drink. The prisoner, however, is a very sober and industrious man. I have not been in their house for some time, but I know they were not very happy together. Mr. Downs, the builder, of Queen-street, here came forward and said—l have known the prisoner some years, and he is a very steady man. Unfortu• nately for him, he hurt his foot lately, and has not been able to work. Mr. Burcham—This is a very painful case, and one that I cannot deal with. The prisoner must be remanded for the attendance of the doctor, who will make a post mortem examination of the body, and then can explain the probable cause of death. The prisoner is therefore remanded until Wednesday next. THE INDEFATIGABLE MRS. COBBETT AGAIN.—In the course of the afternoon Mrs. Cobbett, the wife of Mr. William Cobbett, who has been some time incarcerated in the Queen's Prison, attended before his worship to seek his assistance in getting her husband libefated. Mrs. Cobbett, who had several acts of Parliament in her hand, courageously took the,part.of her hus band. She said he was illegally imprisoned at the suit of Mr. Wood, and in looking over the acts of Parliament she thcught his worship could order his discharge. Mr. Burcham—But I have no jurisdiction in the matter. Mrs. Cobbett—You can come into the prison and take my husband's deposition. I know you have jurisdiction. I have had counsel's opinion on the subject, and my husband has looked over the acts of Parliament, and he is improperly arrested. Mr. Burcham—According to the document you have just handed to me your husband was arrested on the 11th of July, 1856, and was afterwards take n to the Queen's Prison. If you want any assistarnio; to release him you must apply to th e suPe courts. look into the Mrs. Cobbett—l think, Sir, if you statutes, that you have power to in.terfere. You the law does not authorise h is imp perceive that it was an action ofriesjoencmtmeenn.tt, a n d Mr- Burcham—What is y our application to me then ? Mrs. Cobbett—l want you to grant a summons against Mr. Wood to sho mortgagee , why he detains my husband. He was the and as an action under the Turnpike Act the Court ordered him to pay the costs, and in default of that they locked him up. Mr. Burcham—Your husband has been arrested and if illegally your either legally or illegally, re medy lies wi th the Court from whence the ca. sa. was issued. Airs. Cobbett----But the court is eloped now. Mrs. Cobbettßuet Mr. Burcham—yes know that • but there is a lways a judge to be found m a b i e t r , it's no use un less before a f u ll court, and I think you have power to assist me. In fact it would be the quickest remedy. I - cant to know why Mr. Wood falsely imprisons my husba n d, an d that you can inquire into by granting a summons. I know that a full court would order his discharge, but this is a new point, and I want your worship to have the parties before you. Mr. Burcham—l have no jurisdiction in the mat ter. Your husband has been arrested under a ca. sa. from a superior court, and if anything has been illegal your remedy will be in the first instance to apply to a judge to get it cancelled, and if so after wards your action of false imprisonment may lay. Mrs. Cobbett—This is-very hard of you. You can grant a summons and hear the case, as it is in your district. Mr. Burcham—l tell you I have no jurisdiction in the matter as a magistrate. Mr. cobbett is im prisoned, at all events, under colour of law, and I have pointed out to you your remedy, and that is, apply to a judge of one of the superior courts. I cannot issue a summons. Mrs. Cobbett—Can't I indict them ? Mr. Burcham—You can if you like, but it is not for me to decide whether the imprisonment is illegal SE PTEINIBER 3, 1860. N AMER WA TilE "P.R1,1 The Kew York Ilerald has an article on the Prince of Wales. After recounting the programme of the intended reception at New York. to include a banquet and a ball, the writer says :—" Our ances tors helped to conquer the magnificent colonies through which Albert Edward is nowsmaking his triumphal tour. The fishermen of Marblehead, the farmers of Masiachusetts and New York fought against the chivalry of France at Louisburg and Quebec. Yankee blood was poured out like water on the plains of Abraham, and Yankee voices min gled in the cheers whiCh were wafted on victory's wings to the gallant Wolfe, who fell in victory's arms. In good time, however, these colonies—busy New York, stern New England, and fair Virginia— separated themselves from the mother country, and our ancestors proceeded to the construction of the free system of government under which it is our happiness at present to dwell. It is only a little more than two centuries since the first Englishman placed his foot on the soil of the old dominion. The Republic itself is but 84 years of age, and now the States stand foremost amongthe nations. The sturdy child rivals the parent in the material elements of power. Columbia disputes with Britannia the su premacy of the seas. - In every port all around the globe the stars and stripes are intermingled in all fraternity with the red cross banner of St. George. In trade and commerce, in literature, manufactures, agriculture, the fine arts, the exact sciences, and Mechanical inventions, the child has proved itself worthy of the parent stock, and the mother may be proud of her offspring: During all this time the rest of the world has not been at a standstill. Continental Europe has been the theatre of a grand struggle between absolutism and the principles of self-government. Freedom's battle bas been often lost through the treachery of pretended' friends - or by means of the superior strength of open foes. The allied despots have beheld in England the only refuge for the friends of the people. Albion has been as a sanctuary for the champions of constitu tion liberty, no matter whence they might come. As a matter of course, the continental Powers, des potic to a greater or less degree, view with secret hostility this tight little island, the ever-ready asylum for distressed patriots of every clime. Just now this latent antagonism has taken a more posi tive shape, and it is more than probable that Europe is on the verge of a tremendous conflict, wherein all the despotic Powers will be united against Eng land, with a view to destroy its prestige and reduce it to the grade of a dependent State, In such case the British people would receive the sympathy and moral aid of only 3ne of the great Powers of Chris tendom—the United States of America. Not only would we feel the natural sympathy of blood or kin, but we would pray for the success of the British arms in a political point of view, for it is in England alone, so far as the European Goverments are concerned, that we can discern anything like recognition of the natural and inalienable rights of man. The Governments of England and the United States are different only in form—essentially they are the same. . We speak the English language, and our social habits and manners assimilate to a great degree with those of the English people. Their blood is our blood ; their interests are our interests.' Under all these circumstances, the visit of the immediate representative of the British monarchy—the descendant of a line of kings who reigned over our ancestors during 700 years—is an event of the highest social and political signifi cance; we might almost ba justified in giving it a degree of religious solemnity. • As the Prince journeys through the prosperous Republic—as he views the evidence of our material progress and prosperity, the world should be made to know that, although we no longer acknowledge the right of his family to wield the chief executive power in the land, yet we are still loyal to those great principles of human freedom, of constitutional Government, and of the grand landmarks of liberty, set up during six centuries by successive British lawgivers, all, of which stand now as fresh as when first deposited in the archives of the kingdom. An if at some future day, when Edward VII. reigns over the dominions which Victoria now governs so wisely and so well, he is called upon to fight the good-fight for the faith that is in all of us, he may safely count upon 'the young Republic of the West as his ready nay, eager ally. Let his reception in the United States be a warning to the absolutists and a comfort to the friends of free government wheresoever they may ba dispersed." RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. EXETER AND EXMOUTH. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on Friday, at Exmouth; Mr. J. H. W. Ayles bury in the chair. The report stated that, with one exception, all the land had been agreed for ; and after deducting £l,OOO. the estimated value of the land to be resold, the liabilities of the company in respect to this item might be taken at £1,700, and there were no other liabilities except those incidental to construc tion.

Mr. Ebrington, the engineer, reported that during the last half-year the progress of the works had not been so great as he expected, but the weather had been adverse. The contractor, was now making greater efforts to complete the works, and two miles of permanent way out of the five had been completed.

On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by Mr. W. CLARKE, the report was adopted. Mr. J. C. SOMERVILLE, referring to the exten sion of the line to Wells, said the directors were ready to proceed with the works at once, but they had met with unanticipated impediments from the landowners. H 9 hoped, however, that a satisfac tory arrangement would be ma de, and that the directors would not be obliged to have recourse to the compulsory powers of their act for obtaining the land required for the purposes of the line. A resolution empowering the directors to issue 5 per cent. preference shares for completing the line to Wells, such shares to be redeemable in a certain number of years to be decided on by the directors, was adopted. A vote of thanks to the chairman and directors terminated the proceedings. SEVENOAKS.

Cook, the secretary, read the which stated that the gross receipts amounted to £16,482, being an increase of £1,588 over those of the corresponding half of 1859, and this increase of revenue would be available for increase of dividend, the expenditure for the past half-year being no more than for the corresponding period of 1859. The expenditure amounted to £7,030 for the past half year against £7,102 for the corresponding half of last year.
