Illustrated with Cases com piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi tioner of twenty years' standing. Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a condition little short of total prostration, then by the action of Electricity, imparting certainty and e ffi cacy to medical treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of SECOND LIFE.

Hence the prevalence of erysipelas, blotches, boils, rheumatism, and sore throat. Fortunately in Holloway's Ointment and Pills we have th e means o f promptly removingjthis class of diseases . These won d er f u l remedies not only suppress the inflammation, but expel the cause of it by a gentle excretion through the pores, and thoroughly invigorate the whole system; so th a t pa tients who have given Holloway's Ointment and Pills a fair trial are often delighted to find that when their disease is vanquished they are in better health than they ever were before, Directions are affixed to each box and pot. reasons the plaintiff had dismissed himself from the defendant's employment. To that the plai n tiff re plied that he had remained in Ireland, and had started on the second expedition, first, because he was not recalled, and the defendant knew very well where to write to him ; and, secondly, because his engagement was "to give an account of the laying of •the cable," and he therefore pleaded his contract would not have been completed unless he had done so. As to his undertaking with the Ximes, that he was compelled to enter into by an arrangement with the company; while, lastly, as to his supplying the defendant with " manifold" re ports, he had never agreed to do anything else, unless time 'allowed of it. But, moreover, the defendant had accepted the contributions of the plaintiff on three or four occasions subsequent to the 17th of July, and had inserted them in his papers- as from " our own correspondent." How ever against that the defendant attempted to show that all such notices had been copied into the Herald from the Express newspaper, and argued furt . her, that th e f ac t o f th e propr i e t ors o f th e Daily News having p u bli s h e d th e pl a i n tiff' s letters in their even i ng paper , th e E xpress, s h owe d plainly that the plaintiff's contra c t did no t pre elude publication, in th e fi rs t i ns t ance , i n th e evening . papers. That p os iti on was me t b y th e plaintiffs proving that the p ro p r i e t ors o f th e D a il y News did not publish, in the first instance, a single report in the Express previous to the publication of the 17th of Sept.; and that was only done when it was found that the plaintiff's contract with the Daily News had been repeatedly broken by the de fendant's publishing the reports as they reached hint in the Eveniny Herald, but supposing the de fendant was beholoten for the reports to the Express why had he inser*d them in the Herald as from " our own correspondent ?" 'Lastly, the plaintiff claimed a week's salary for the period intervening between his wrongful dismissal by the defendant and his absorption on the staff of the Daily News at a salary more than dauble what he received from the defendant. The plaintiff had received a sum of £l5 10s. from the Times for his report of the suc cessful laying of the cable, although it had appeared in the Evening Herald of the previous evening. The jury found for the plaintiff—Damages, £244, which was the full amount claimed, minus tha £l5 10s. received from the Times. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Before Mr. Justice Erie and a Common Jury., WOODS V. JOIINSTONE.--THE. ATLANTIC CABLE. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. J. Gray appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., and Mr. Barnard for the defendant. The plaintiff in this action, Mr. John Woods, is a young gentleman, and a member of a fa m ily iat for 40 years has been intimately connected with the London daily press. The defendant, Mr. James Johnstone, is the messenger of the Court of Bank ruptcy; and proprietor of the Morning Herald, the Evening Herald, and Standard newspapers. As early as at 16 years of age Mr. Woods was engaged as a reporter upon the Morning Herald , at first on a sessional engagement, but afterwards on an annual engagement, and when the paper was transferred from the hands of the late proprietor, Mr. Baldwin, to the defendant, Mr. Johnstone, Mr. Woods retained his position upon the establish ment. Thus engaged, in May, 1858, preparations were made for the laying down of the Atlantic cable, and it coming to Mr. Woods' ears that the company had decided upon only allowing two re porters to accompany the expedition, that is to say, one to represent the Times, and the second the remainder of the London daily prese, he made pro posals to the managers of the Morning Post, the Daily News, the Morning Ackiirtiser, and the Morning Chronicle, to be allowed to represent those several establishments on the occasion of the forth coming expedition. Mr. Woods' proposal was accepted,. by, those gentlemen,.upon the terms that, upon, the termination of his engagement, he was to be paid a lump sum for his services, each paper contributing its quota of the total amount. An arrangement of this kind was necessary, as it was impossible to say how long the expedition would be detained at sea. Having thus agreed, the plaintiff had an interview with the manager of the _Horning Herald, acquainted him with the determination of the direc tors of the company not to allow more than two re porters on board the Agamemnon, and at the same time with the agreement which the other papers were willing to come to with _him. He further stated his brother would represent the Times, and that he (plaintiff) would have a cabin to himself as one of Sir C. Bright's staff. In answer to the ap plication the manager, Mr. Evans, said that before coming to any determination upon the subject he must consult with the proprietor of the Herald. Subsequently Mr. Woods had an interview with Mr. Evans and Mr. Fowler, the commercial mana ger of the paper, and it was then agreed that Mr. Woods should go in the Agamemnon as the special correspondent of the Morning Herald, receiving nothing beyond his usual salary of two guineas a week, but with permission to communicate at more or less length to other newspapers. Accordingly the following letter was received by the plaintiff, dated the 12th of May, 1858 : "My dear Sir,—l have much pleasure in stating that it has been agreed by the proprietor of the Morning Herald and Standard newspapers that you should be authorised to furnish the account of the laying of the Atlantic cable. Wishing you may have a pleasant trip, I remain, my dear sir, sincerely yours, " D. M. EVANS." Armed, therefore, with this authority, Mr. Woods proceeded in the first instance on the trial trip to the Bay of Biscay, and on his return thence sup plied to all the papers above specified a narrative of the proceedings. This was on the 10th of June. Mr. Woods went out in the Agamemnon on what is known as the unsuccessful attempt to lay the cable. The Agamemnon remained at sea more than a month. Immediately on landing Mr. Woods forwarded a long account of the attempt to all the London papers he represented. His report reached London on the 14th, in time for publication in the evening papers, and accordingly Mr. Johnstone, the defendant, did publish it in the Evening .Herald. The morning papers, therefore, of the 15th, instead of having recourse to Mr. Woods' copy, as forwarded to them, extracted the narrative of the unsuccenful undertaking from the Evening Herald—in other words, the defendant forestalled the publi cation of the report in his evening paper, and it was therefore useless to the morning journals as origi nal matter. Accordingly, on the plaintiff's apply ing on his return to London for payment for his contributions to the Morning Post, the Daily News, the Morning Advertiser, and the Morning Chronicle, all that he succeeded in obtaining was £3O from the Daily News, and £lolox. from the _Advertiser ; the Morning Post, as well as the Morning Chronicle, refusing to pay him anything, on the ground that they were not indebted to Mr. Woods, but to the Evening Herald, for the report appearing in those journals. Indeed, the same objection was raised by the Advertiser, although eventually Mr. Woods' services were requited by that establishment to the extent mentioned. It was here that the plain tiff's first claim against the defendant arose. The question was, did the express contract entered into with the proprietor of the Morning Herald allow of the defendant publishing the plaintiff's reports in the first instance in the evening paper. On the one hand, it was put forward on behalf of the plaintiff that, considering the small remuneration which he was to receive from the Herald for the services to be rendered, it would have been pre posterous to expect that he would forego his chances of gain from the publication of his letters in the other morning papers, by permitting them previously to appear in the evening papers. The undoubted custom, as recognised by the press, was that when a notice had previously appeared in any other paper, a subsequent publisher was entitled to use it without any cost or remuneration to the con. tributor. Mr. Evans and Mr. Fowler were both, it was alleged, perfectly cognisant of this practice, and therefore, when they were made aware that Mr. Woods went out to contribute to other papers, independently of the Morning Herald—that esta= blishment thereby effecting a considerable saving —they must have felt that to publish the plain tiff's reports in the first instance in the Evening Herald was precluding the plaintiff from all chances of remuneration from the other establish ments contracting with them. On the other hand, the defendant affirmed that Mr. Woods was en gaged as the reporter of the Morning Herald, the Evening Herald, and the Standard newspapers; that he was bound to report, consequently, for all three ; that in the interview between the manager of the defendant and the plaintiff not one word was said about excluding the Evening Herald from the benefit of plaintiff's report ; and that, in fact, the plaintiff offered to undertake the service as a kind of vacation trip, and for the benefit of his health, which had been impaired by a recent illness. The Agamemnon sailed again on the 16th of July, and this time the cable was successfully, laid. On that occasion Mr. Woods' brother,' the correspondent of the Times, did not accompany the expedition, but by an arrangement with the company the plaintiff undertook to supply the Times with a report of the proceedings. This undertaking, however, was given without any authority from the proprietor of the Herald. The expedition returned to Valentia on the sth of August, and Mr. Woods forwarded in 'manifold' a narrative of the successful laying down of the cable to all the papers he had contracted with. But this time again Mr. Woods' arrange ments with the other journals, independently of the Herald, were forestalled by the publication in the Evening :Herald of the 1 lth of August. Mr. Woods remained in the west of Ireland for the next two MANSION -HOUSE.—James ToyeZ, William months watching the progress of matters connected Sodo, Emma Richards , Alfred Newbury, and 1 with the establishment of the telegraph, but finally James Beaumont were charged with having re left Valentia on the Ist day of October.

BRITTAIN AND CAMP. This was a petition by a husband for a dissolution of marriage, on the ground of his wife's adultery. The respondent and the co-respondent pleaded a denial of the adultery. Mr. Wordsworth, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Pigott, and Mr. Turner were counsel for the petitioner • Mr. Lilley, Mr. Laxton, and M r . M ar ti n f or the re spondent. The co-respondent appeared in person. The petitioner was formerly a cabinet•maker, but has now retired from business, and resides at Waltham-cross. He married the respondent in 1840, he being then about 25 and she about 19 years of age. They have one child, who is between 15 and 16. The act of adultery alleged in the pe tition was distinctly proved by a servant named Judd, who stated that she hid witnessed it one evening in Feb., 1857. She told her master whit she had seen about three months afterwards, and he immediately separated from the respondent. The co-respondent is a journeyman carpenter, a married man with a family, who lives near the petitioner's house. Among the witnesses called by the petitioner was his son by the respondent. No evidence was given on behalf of the respon dent, but the witness Judd was cross-examined at considerable length for the purpose of impeaching her credit, and it was suggested that the jury ought not to convict the respondents of the serious offence of adultery upon her unsupported testimony. The jury found that the respondent and the co respondent had committed adultery. His Lordship, after the verdict was delivered, recalled the witness Judd, and put some questions to her with reference to another . person with whom Mrs. Brittain was alleged in the petition to have committed adultery. The case was then adjourned until the sitting of the full Court. SYKES V. SYKES. Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Mr. Bevan conducted he petitioner's case; Mr. Macquecn appeared for he respondent. The - petitioner, Mrs. Hannah Sykes, prayed for a judicial separation from her husband, William Sykes, on the ground of cruelty. At the time of their marriage, in _June, 1857, the petitioner was the widow of a Mr. Perrin, by whom she had three children, and was carrying on a good business as a cabinetmaker and broxer in Manchester. It ap peared from her evidence that within a month of the marriage the respondent commenced a course of brutal ill treatment, and continued it during the remainder of their cohabitation. He used the most foal and violent language, threatened "to be her end," beat her with his fists, dragged her from her bed by her hair, and kicked her when she was in a state of pregnancy. She was more than once obliged to take refuge with her neighbours, and at last, in a few months, left his house, but was forced by him to return. He repeated the acts of violence of which he had before been guilty, and was further guilty of cruelty to her children by her first hus band. On the 17th of July she finally left him. The respondent pleaded a denial of the cruelty and condonation. In support of the latter plea he stated that a few days after the final separation, and before the presentation of the petition, his wife came to his house and allowed him to have conjugal intercourse with her. He also mentioned subsequent occasions on which they had met, and again had intercourse. Mrs. Sykes was recalled in reply, and denied that she ever had intercourse 'with her husband after her separation except on one occasion, when she called upon him to talk about a pecuniary ar rangement, and stated that then it was without her consent and against her wish. The jury found that William Sykes had been guilty of cruelty, and that Mrs. Sykes had not condoned it. His lordship decreed a judicial separation. EVANS V. EVANS. Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., and Mr. Field appeared for the petitioner. Mrs. Lydia Evans, the petitioner, prayed for a dissolution of marriage. She was married to the respondent in 1835, at Worcester, where she carried on business as a dressmaker, and he was employed as a plasterer. They afterwards cohabited at Bir mingham. He was in the habit of treating her with great cruelty, and frequently sold off all the furniture she had purchased with her earnings. In 1850 he was bound over to keep the peace towards her for twelve months. At the expiration of that period he applied for admission to her house and threatened to kill her. She refused to admit him and he went away, and he never afterwards re turned or contributed to her support. He has since been living at Hackney wit h another woman, The respondent, in his answer, denied his wife's allegations, and made various charges against her, but did not appear to support them. The jury found that the respondent had been guilty of adultery and of cruelty, but not of deser tion. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Feb. 18. '7l .1=.73. - .o; , es .. , •,.: Emma Richards in the coth yglta t ik t - at ,s-al k worth, and I watched them titNibeyricaoid the Dover-road. The man carried a bundle under his arm. They took a cab and rode to Finsbury -square, where they got out, and they then walked in the direction of Hoxton. Emma Richards took the bundle,_and Knight, the detective officer, and I continued to follow them until they reached Beau mont's house, No. 109, Bridport.place, New North-road. Beaumont keeps a kind of leaving shop, with parcels on the shelf with tickets on them, like a pawnbroker's shop. Goods consisting of dresses, &c., are exposed in the window-- for sale. Upon arr i v i ng th ere , th e man whom I had previously seen with Emma Richards left her outside while he went in. The private door was then o p ene d f rom th e i ns id e, an d Emma Richards entered with the bundle. Knight and I followed her, and I found Beaumont behind the door. When I reached the parlour door, which is close to the stairs, I saw Knight with Emma richards and the man. I looked for the bundle and found it on the kitchen stairs, wrapped in the shawl I produce. I left this in charge of a cabman who was waiting for me. Emma Richards then wanted some water, and the man went down stairs to fetch it. I followed him into the kitchen and spoke to him. I then went up stairs to look for him, and found that he had escaped over the back wall, as I suppose. By the Lord Mayor—Emma Richards was taken to the station-house by Knight, on whose return we searched Beaumont's house. The bundle I allude to contained 181 silk handkerchiefs. Mr. Lewis (for the prisoner Beaumont)—Did Beaumont tell you that the man had called to see a lodger of his named Mack ? Witness—Yes; but he first of all said that this man had been in the house an hour. Theman was sitting by the side of th e fi rep l ace i n th e par l our , there being present at the time Emma Richards, Beaumont and his wife, and Knight the officer. That was after Emma Richards had been taken into custody. Beaumont was asked who the man was. He replied " Oh, he has been h ere thi s h our; he is waiting for one Of my lodgers named Mack." After the man had made his escape Beaumont said that he knew nothing at- all about the man, but that Mack lodged there, and that be expected him there by 11 o'clock. We waited Sill between 12 and 1 o'clock last night, but no Mr. Mack came. I went there again this morning between 11) and 11 o'clock, and I ascertained that he had not been there. The witness then produced, at Mr. Lewis's request, one of Mack's cards, bearing Beaumont's address. Beaumont was taken into custody by Knight. Knight (the detective officer) was next ex amined for the prosecution. He said,—l accom panied Legg yesterday, and watched the prisoner, Emma Richards, and saw her carry into the private entrance of Beaumont's house the bundle of silk handkerchiefs produced. After she had been admitted I pushed the door with all my force, and it was either closed, or somebody was holding it very hard. I forced it open and found Emma Richards, there being somebody behind the door, but who I do n o t k now. I overtook Emma Richards just as she got inside the parlour door, and she im mediately called o u t as l oud as she could, " We are all lagged. Oh ! dear !" and dropped on the floor. Just as I got in the door I saw somethin g which I believe to be the bundle th rown down til t ; kitchen stairs. My impression is, that it was not thrown down by Emma Richards, but by the person in the passage. I told Legg to go down after the bundle. A man was sitting in an easy chair in the parlour, but whether that was the same man that we had seen in the house with Emma Richards or not I cannot:tell. I said to Beaumont, who at that moment came into the parlour, "Is that the man who had just come in with this woman ?" He replied, " Oh, dear no, he has been here a long time, from half an hour to an hour, waiting for our lodger." I asked him where the men was who came in with her ? He replied that he did not know ; that he did not see any man come in along with her. Emma Richards then complained of being faint and asked for some water. The man said he would fetch a drop of water, and Legg followed him down. The man, however, did not return. I left Legg in charge of Beaumont's house, and took Emma Richards to Bow-lane station, where she was charged with hav ing received the property produced, knowing that it had been stolen from the premises of the prose cutor. When the charge was entered the inspector on duty asked her if she wished to give any expla nation with respect to the property; she then turned to me and said, " I can't say any more than what you know about it. You know where I fetched it from, and who gave it to me." I said, " I most certainly did not, and that had I observed any one bring it to her I should have taken him into custody." She said, "I think you saw the person give it to me." I repeated to her that I did not, and that the first I saw of her with the man and the parcel was at the time she was erossini , the New Kent-road. She told me that she did not know the name of the man who had given her the parcel. I then asked her whether she would give the name of the person to whose house she was going to take it, and she said that she did not know the name, but was to take it to a draper's shop at Horton. I then returned, and saw Beaumont and his wife, and told them that Emma Richards had stated to me that she was to bring the goods to their place. Beaumont said he had never seen either the man or woman in his life till that day. , I said " Don't you know that man at all who was here when we came ?" Mrs. Beau mont replied, " We know nothing about him, sir. He had not actually sat down when you got into the house." I said, " Mr. Beaumont, you told me that that man had been in the house more than half an hour or an hour." He replied, " No, he had only just come in and sat down when you got in." I then searched his place, and found some new tablecovers, and a good deal of other property, some of which I brought away, although none of it relates to this charge. I th en t oo k hi m into custody on the charge of receiving 40 pieces of silk hand kerchiefs, and told him that in all probability there would be other charges against him. Mr. Lewis said, he was in possession of the re ceipts relating to the other property to which Knight had referred. Legg, manthe behadofficer, w s a ee s n tl i i n en ß r e e a c n a m ll e e l d it , ,s an p d al s .l a e i n d that . was the man he had previously seen in the cab with Emma Richards. Knight, cross-examined b l Mr. Lewis, said, — As soon as I entered the house Legg ran to the kitchen stairs and brought the parcel back ; not much con fusion or noise prevailed, .for Beaumont, ii 1 , and the man stood still, while Lc an ques tioned them. Beaumont and h i s w ife off ered us arch every facility to se, the house. Emma Richards —Did I not tell_you that I was to take the parcel to t h e first linendrapees shop on the right? Knight—You did not. You said you were to take it to a linendraper's shop in Hoxton, the name . of which you did not know. Mr. J. Vavasseur identified the 40 pieces of silk a s part of the property which had been stolen from hi s premises on the night of the burglary. Mr. Wontner said this was the whole of the evi dence he intended to offer on the present occasion. The Lord Mayor —The prisoners will be re manded for a week. Mr. Lewis said his client had been taken into custody under the misapprehension that he was the person who ,had been dealing with the property. The man who had called at Beaumont's house with Emma Richards went there for the purpose of seeing a lodger named Mack. The Lord Mayor remanded the prisoners for a week, refusing the application of Mr. Lewis to accept bail for Beaumont's appearance. GUILDHALL.—Henry Cass, a young man of highly respectable connexions, was charged with obtaining goods by means of forged orders. Four charges were proceeded with against the prisoner, in two of which it appeared he had ob tained goods of Messrs. Cook, Sons, and Co., of St. Paul's-churchyard, to the amounts of £2 16s. 3d. and £3 10s. 11d., and in the other two cases the goods were obtained of Messrs. Caldecott and Co., of Cheapside, to the amounts of £3 10s. 11d. and 17s. 2d. The prisoner pleaded guilty to the first two charges, not guilty to the third, and said he should reserve his defence to the fourth. The prisoner was committed for trial on the four charges. BOW-STREET.—Two men, named Rigby a n d Wilson, the former of whom de scribed himself as a painter, and the latter as a. printer, were charged f w ro it m h attempting s t e al st e al sae7ula9n3t, pru ityof gas-fittings r y-lane ' an d also with committing a burglar y at the White Hart public-house, 1 91, D rur y -lane.
