The Royal Assent was given by Commission to the following bills :—Chief Justice of Bombay, County Management, Commissioners of Exhibition 1851, Rail way Act (Ireland) Continuance, Portendic and Albreda Convention, Wexford Harbour Embankment, Liver pool Improvement, Yarmouth Bridge, Belfast and County Down Railway, Norwich Gas, Andover Canal and Railway, Oude Ra lway, London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway (Shoreham to Henfield, &c.) ; Birkenhead Improvement, Dean Forest Turnpike Trust, Cornwall Railway, London and South Wales Railway, Mersey Docks and Harbours (New), Mersey Docks and Harbour (Consolidation of Acts), Halifax Park and Improvement; Manchester Corporation Water, Ware, Had ham, and Bantingford Railway, Ulverstone and Lancaster Railway, Coories, Machynlletb, and River Dovey Trainroad, Great Northern and Western (of Ireland) Railway, Limerick and Foynes Railway, Midland Great Western Railway of Ireland, Eastern Counties Railway, Bury Radcliffe (Water), Portsmouth Railway, South Devon and Tavistock Railway, Northampton Gas, West End of London and Crystal Palace Railway ; Llandaff and Can ton District Markets ; Blackburn Railway ; Darley's Estate ; Viscount Keith's Estat.,. The royal commissioners were the Lori Chancellor, the Earl of Hardwicke, and Lord Wensleydale. Their lordships adjourned during pleasure. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The South Yorkshire and Cleveland Railway, the Motackton, Middlesborough, and Yarmouth Water, and the Severn Valley Railway bills were read a: . second time. Tao Athenry and Tuam Railway, Manchester, Shef field, and Lincolnshire and Great Northern Railway Companies, and the Devon Valley Railway Bills were read a third time and passed. Viscount CLANUARTY presented a petition from the Board of Guardians of the Poor-law Union of Ballinasloe, complaining of the abuse of the powers conferred upon the Poor•law Commissioners by the 14 h and 1.5 . .. h Vic., c. 68, intituled "An act for the effeoeual relief of the sick poor of Ireland." The noble viscount also moved for certain returns connected with the poor , laws in Ireland. CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY BILL. Lord REDESDA.LE moved the third reading of this bill. He thought it right to inform their lordships that the bill would come into operation on the same day on which the Chester and Holyhead Railway Company were to sign the new contract for the acceleration of the mails between Holyhead and Kingstown. Lord COLCHESTER said a contract by this com pany. for the conveyance of the mails between London and Dcblin in 11 hour, had been nearly completed. Some difficulties had arisen which had prevented the , Chester and Holyhead Railway from completing their part of the arrangement, but it was fully expected that those difficulties would speedily be overcome when the contract would be completed. The Duke of SOMERSET said as this bill would give a monopoly of the whole communication be tween London and Dublin to the Chester and Holyhead Rail way Company, he should move that the third reading should be postponed ler a short time. He had been a member of a commit tee appointed to inquire into the state of com munication between London and Dublin, and having been convinced of the advantages which would result from carrying the report of the committee, he thought it his duty to oppose far the present the third reading of the bill. Lord REDESDALE said he would not press the fur ther progress of the bill, but he would make inquiries into the circumstances, and move the second reading this day week. After a few words from tha Earl of DONOUGIIMORE, the petition was ordered to he laid on the table. THE OATHS BILL, On the order of the day for considering their lord ships' reasons for insisting upon the amendments to the bill, _ _ The Earl of DERBY said he bad an amendment to move which would materially alter the character of some of the reasons, but he would n-tt do so until after the noble earl opposite (Granville) bad stated the objections he entertained to those reasons generally. Earl GRANVILLE rose and was [LEFT SPEAKING HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(This Day.) The SPEAKER took the chair at twelve o'clock. NEW MEMBER. Mr. J. St. Anbyn took the oaths and his seat for West Cornwall, in the room of Mr. Williams, deceased. NEW WRIT. Sir W. JOLLIFFE moved for a new writ for the borough of S!aculord, in the room of Mr. John Inglis, Lord Advocate, who has acoepted the office of Lord Justice-Clerk in Scotland. Tile motion was agreed to. SUPPLY—THE EMBASSY AT PARIS. On the order for going into committee of supply, Mr. WYSE said he saw with aetoni3hment in the es timates delivered on Saturday, a vote of 19,296/. fir the embassy-house at Paris, on which 135,000/. had been expended. He hop,d some explanation woulJ be offered on this point by the Goveroment. He thought it would be better that the ambassador in Yaris should be allowed 5,0001. a-year to find his owu bowie, as was the ease with the French ambassador in England. Mr. HAMILTON said he shouid be happy to lay on the table the reports and correspondence which was the foundation of the present vote. The house went into committee of supply, and several votes were agreed to without diicussion. On the vote of 10 0001. for Hong Kong, Mr. WILSON objected to the vote on the ground that it was for local, and not imperial purposes. Lord STANLEY said the Government had cut off every item from the expanses which was not necos easy. The vote was then aereed to. On the vote of 40,0001. for extra diplomatic expen. diture, Mr. WYSE objected to such a large amount, and thought that 30,0001. would be ample, and he moved an amendment to that effect. Mr. W. S. FITZGERALD said there were many diplomatic arrangements pending, about which it was impossible to obtain a correct estimate. The committee then divided, and the numbers were— For the amendment Against it .. . Majority . Mr. WYSE then moved as an ammendenent that the vote should be reduced by 50001. The committee then divided-- For the amendment Against it Majority The vote was then agreed to. On the vote of 39,400/. for the Nonconforming and other ministers le Ireland, Mr. BAXTER moved the reduction of the vote to 366/., on the ground that grants of public money to different sects for religious purposes were objectionable. Mr. P. O'BRIEN opposed the amraendenent, though be would have no objection to support a motion for withdrawing, all public grants for religious purposes. Mr. J. LOCKE thon,zht that endowments ought not to be attacked piecemeal. He should be happy to vote for a general measure. Toe SOLICITOR -GENERAL defended the vote, which bad been in existence from the time of William the Third. After some discussion the committee divided. For the amendment Against it Majority .. 69 ~ 81 --12 The amendment was negatived. Mr. GILPIN moved ne an amendment to the clause to reduce it by 3461. 3s. 41. for new congregations since last year. Toe SOLICITOR-GENERAL mid that chapels bad been ',milt and congregations formed on the promise of this vote. The committee divided— For the amendment Against it ................... ... 147 Majority.. ...... . The amendment was negative!, an d the e i„„ was agreed to. The sitting was suspended at a few minutes before 4 o'clock, at which time Mr. PUTMAN summoned the house to hear the royal assent given to certain bills. At six o'clmk the house resumed, and was (LEFT SITTING.) THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVEN! STATE Of THE RIVER THAMES. PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEE.—(THIS DAT.) This committee met this morning, at No. 11 Room, to pursue the inquiry into the state of the Thames- Amongst the members present were Mr. Kendall (chairman), Mr. Roupoll, Mr. Ackroyd, Sir J. Shelley, Lord John Manners, Mr. Locke, Sir J. Y. Buller, Mr. Tite, Sir B. Hail, the Hon. Jocelyn Percy, and Mr. • Alderman Cubitt. The first witness called was Mr. Hawkesley, civil engineer, examined by the Chairman—l have paid spacial attention to the state of the river Thames. I have made frequent experiments on Thames water—the last took place yesterday, During the hot weather I made experiments in company with Dr. Letheby. The general result of • the observation is that in consequence of the high degree of temperature, and the small quantity of water coming down—being only six or seven times as much as the sewage falling into the river—l attribute the present im pure state of the river. I found that during the time of the hot weather the temperature of the water was 72, the highest I ever recollect. The water was very much discoloured, and the mad was of a black colour ; the odour was very bad. Having found that the sewage extended from below Woolwich to Chiswick, I made certain experiments to test the state of the Thames at given points. On Saturday fortnight, off Woolwich—coming up from Gravesend—about nine at night, I found the stench greatest in the centre, at Blackwell. The smell was distinguishable off Greenwich, it was perfectly nauseous. Ab the Tunnel pier it was less offeensive ; at London .bridge it was scarcely perceptible ; and at Waterloo -bridge there was was no smell at all. This was at low water. On the contrary, at high water I found a very strong stench in the vicinity of the Mimes of Parliament. It appeared to me to begin at Blackfriars-bridge, and to extend to Chelsea ; but its greatest intensity was at Waterloo-bridge. It diminished at Chelsea, and at Chiswick it entirely ceased. Dr. Letheby, in company with myself and Mr. Bidder, during the latter part of June, the 21st, 23d, and 26th, made certain experiments. Mid stream at low water was generally selected. We found the water to be in a most impure state—in a gal lon of the water taken off Greenwich we found 67 grains of impurity. Those 67 grains contained 24 grains of alkaline chlorides. At London-bridge there were 29 grains of impurity, at Blackfriars 27, at Hungerford 2Si, at Westminster 26, at Chelsea 29, but there it con tained only 1 grain of alkaline chloride. The Chairman—From your numerous experiments, can you tell us how soon the sewage is delivered from the Thames after it has been allowed to enter ? Mr. Hawkesley—About a quarter of a mile in each tide. The Chairman—At what point down the river could the sewage be introduced into the river without any danger of its coming back ? Mr. Hawkesley—Below Woolwich. The Chairman—Are you satisfied of that ? Mr. Hawkesley—Were the sewage put into the river below Woolwich some of it would come back, but not i❑ the same state as it formerly was. On its return it would be no longer sewage. The Chairman—Then when the sewage once passes Woolwich it never returns ? Mr. Hawkesley—lt never comes back as sewage, When it does return it is comparatively deodorised. The Chairman—That is your decided opinion ! Mr. Hawkesley—That is the result of my observa tions. The Chairman—ln the numerous experiments you have been engaged in did you find the evil on the in crease or decrease ? Mr. Hawkesley—On the increase. Toe Chairman— What means should you recommend to avert the present nuisance ? Mr. Hawkesley—l know of no other means of pre venting the nuisance except by removing the cause, of not allowing the sewage to enter it except at a point at which it could not return. The Chairman—Then your remedy is by intercepting the sewage. Mr. Hawkesley—Yes. Mr. Roupell—Then if the Thames was not embanked over, even the sewage had been diverted mud banks would still form and give off the offensive exhalations? Mr. Eawkesley—Yes. Mr. Roupell—Not only offensive, but injurious Mr. Hawkesley—Yes, certainly. Mr. Roupell—Fever in certain parts is mainly, to be attributed to organic matter mixed with the water ? Mr. Hawkesley—Yes. Mr. Roupell—Can the water, after being deodorised, safely be introduced into the river ? Mr. Hawkesley—Yes. Mr. Roupell—And the inhabitants of the metropolis need not be under fear of bad results following the erec tion of the deodorising stations, because such can be carried out without danger 1 Mr. Hawkesley—Yes. Mr. Tite—What is your'opinion of the system pur sued at Rugby ? Mr. Hawkesley—The system at Rugby has, commonly speaking, been a failure. It covered the expense, but there was nothing to be got out of it. Mr. Tite—That system was to distribute the sewage over the land ? Mr. Hawkesley— Yes, Mr. Tite—De ycu know of any scheme or system by which the sewage can be deodorised in the sewers on its course before it entered the Thames. In your opinion is such a thing possible ? Mr. Hawkesley—No, not having a proper re gard for expenses. I don't think the sludge could be carried off through pipes, and the removal by barges would be expensive and very offensive. The committee shortly afterwards adjourned. THE UNITED STATES. (From the Times Correspondent.) NEW YORK, JUNE 29. The excessive heat of the past four days has sus pended all business. The sun has blazed down from a brassy sky without a cloud to intercept its rays. The heated bricks and stones in town have turned, the atmosphere they reflect into something resem bling what I suppose the interior of an oven may be. In the countryl the foliage of the trees has withered under the blaze. Not even the usual sea breeze has come in the evening to rslieve the ex hausted frame. The long hot nights have been more insufferable even than the day. From every quarter we hear the usual acounts of the effects of such protracted and powerful heat r upon the imprudent labourers. The columns of the journals record many instances of death from sunstroke, sometimes instantaneous, sometimes with more protracted suffering. The Moses Taylor arrived from Aspinwall on Sunday With $1,799,502 in gold. The reports of the gold discoveries on Frazar's River are fully con ' firmed. All doubt in regard to the richness of the mines is dispelled, and the floating vagabond bor der-ruffian gold washers of California were moving up in mass. The considerations which should in fluence prudent men—viz., the difficulty in getting there, the cold climate, the impossibility of working for at least two winter months by reason of the cold, the high price of provisions, and the immi nent danger of a conflict with the hardy tribe of Indians, whose rights the white vagabonds never regard,—these considerations have no weight with th class of men that are in motion. The authori ties of the Hudson's Bay Company are evidently alarmed at the prospect of such an invasion. They have issued a proclamation, warning persons from entering Frazer's River for the purpose of trade, such acts being contrary to law and infringements ipon the exclusive rights of the Hudson's Bay Com pany ; and that all persons, boats, and ships, found 14 days after the date of the proclamation in Fra zer's River, or in any of the bays, rivers, or creeks of the British possessions on the orth-west coast of America, without a licence from the Hudson's Bay Company, shall be liable to forfeiture, and will be seized and condemned according to law. There is plenty of trouble ahead. The class of men whom the Company propose to exclude have not much respect for proclamations. They have as little re gard for such sort of " powder," and as little re spect for a paper claim to the exclusive occupation of a continent, as the British fleet had for the similar claims of Commissioner Yeh. Ido not sup pose that any attempt would be made to enforce a forfeiture of a vessel. The mere assertion of the right appears to have stirred up the gold diggers wonderfully. The same steamer brings intelligence that the Governments of Nicaragua and Costa Rica have granted to Mr. Vanderbilt and his associates the exclusive right of working the transit route by way of San Juan,—the river and lake. The former grant to the Transit Company is revoked for failure on the part of that company to comply with the conditions of the grant ; and now Mr. Vanderbilt has ob tained, for the little sum of 100,000 dole. lent to Nicaragua (and for which a State Royalty upon the income is pledged), and the further sum of 32,000 dols., the control of the route, and the possession of all the property of the former comparies. This transfer and grant are said to have been anterior to the supposed concession to M. Belly. The Act of Incorporation, as published, is dated the 6th day of May. The concession referred to in it is dated the gth day of March. We have also, by the same source, intelligence of the completion of the proposed arrangement for consolidating the separa' e republics of the Isthmus into a Federative body, with a common central Government. This measure was recommended by the United States' Goys:no - lent many years ago ; but at that time the difference between the States of Costa Rica and Nicaragua ran so high, and the mutual jealousy between the United States and Great Britain was so great, that it was impossible to bring it about. The relations between the United States and Mexico are complicated by the retirement of the United States Minis'er to that country, who has demanded his passports in consequence of the at tempts to enforce the involuntary loan. The cor respondent of the Tribune says—with what truth I cannot say—that " It is probable that Col. Forsyth has asked for his passports, knowing the intention of Mr. Bu chanan to recall him, and wishing to withdraw with an imaginary eclat." The intelligence from Utah by way of San Fran cisco confirms that received by the overland route. Only a few Mormons remained at Salt Lake city to take care of the crops. Three sur , veying parties had gone southerly in different directions. Some supposed that Brigham Young had selected as the place of his future residence an unexplored tract of country between the Central route and the old Spanish trail to New Mexico ; ' while others, probably better informed, sup posed that Sonora, or ono of the adjoining Mexican States, was to be the future home of the Saints. While the United Sates' Government are driving them out at the point of the bayonet because their theocratic fora, of despotism and their social insti tutions conflict with those of the rest of the United States, and make an existence under the same Government impossible, doctrines more extraordi nary than theirs and more subversive of all that is good in society are freely proclaimed index the very shadows of the Puritanic mountains of New England. Persons dissatisfied with the rest of the world, and admirers of themselves, have just been gathered together under a canvass tent among the mountains of Vermont, with an explosion of gasconade tibaldry and lasciviousness that puts Brigham Young to the blush and Mormonism in the shade. Marriage is denounced as the cause of the slavery and degra ' dation of woman, whereby she loses the control of her name, her person, her property, her labour, her affections, her children, and her freedom ; and a pretty delez,ate from New York—representing what department in our Babel I cannot say—'._,n "the sunny side of 39," with pretty curls, bewitchine smile, sparkling eyes, and sweet elocution, held forth upon this text in a spe,ch that fills a column and A-half in the morning journals. She treated her subject con amore, but in language that will hardly bear transcribing. Discontented minds of every sort were there represented, complaining— sonic of the restraints of the marriage tie, some of the weight of the Church and religious institutions, some of the sin slavery, some of the unjust distribution of operty—all of the sinful mote in the eyes cf offending friends and strangers, none of the beam that was blearing their own vi-ion. Two or three times a-year there has to be just such a " stanapcdo" of "isms." The public is amused or shocked, ac cording to its fancy, and the spread of these peon liar teneti is effecmually checked by the absurdity of the display.

The United Service Gazette says : "We have much pleasure in announcing that the ships intended to form the Channel fleet will be brought forward immediately for commission. Rear-Ad mizal of the Red Sir Charles Howe Fre mantle, K.C.B , one of the most active an d de servedly popular in the service, was on Thursday appointed the commander-in-chief, and will forth with hoist his flag at Portsmouth on board the Duke of Wellington. Sir Charles Fremantle is in his 58th year, which, as the admirals' list goes, must be thought young. He is also full of vigour, and, upon the whole, we may congratulate the First Lord upon the discretion he has displayed in selecting this officer from among the numerous aspirants for this distinguiled post. The flag cap tain and other officers composing the staff have not yet been named. Great care will be necessary with regard to the captain and commander of the flag ship, for these are times in which a little delicate handling will do great things towards manning the fleet, while the want of it will be productive of much mischief." . _ The screw steam ship Royal Albert, 121, from Malta and Gibraltar, arrived in Plymouth Sound in the afternoon ; she saluted outside the break water. The Hon. East India Company's screw troopship Undaunted, Commander Franklyn, arrived in the Thames yesterday from India, having on board 120 invalid troops belonging to various cavalry and infantry regiments now serving in India, the whole in charge of Major C. Langdon, Royal Artillery. The following officers also came home in the Un daunted,—viz., Lieut.-Colonel A. Horne, 13th Light Infantry ; Capt. T. E. Green, 82d Regiment; Capt. G. C. Hunt, Medical Staf; Capt. Water man, 13th Bengal Native Infantry; Lieut. C. A. Armstrong, 10th Regiment ; Lieut. C. P. Miller, 82d ; Assistant-Surgeon J. J. Mulock, 06th Regi ment, and Assistant-Surgeon H. R. L. Veale, M.D., Royal Artillery. During the voyage from Calcutta nine deaths occurred on board. On the disembarkation of the invalids at Gravesend they were forwarded yesterday to Fort Pitt general hos pital, Chatham, where those requiring surgical treatment were admitted into the hospital, and the remainder sent to St. Mary's invalid depot to await their discharge. Yesterday - the Nimrod, Harrison commander, arrived at Gravesend from Ceylon, having on board a party of invalid troops belonging to the 37th Re giment and the Royal Artillery. The following offic.l.-s also arrived with the troops :—Captain S. Sarpe, 20th Regiment, late of the Ceylon Rifles, in charge of invalids ; Lieut. S. Halahan, and Ensi g n C. D. Baynes, C ylon Rifles, who are both invalided home. The Nimrod sailed from Colombo on the 11th March, and had a remarkably fine passage. Tic ee deaths occurred on beard during the voyage, viz., two men of the Royal Artillery, and one of the 37th Regiment. The invalid troops, together with four women and 15 children, were forwarded yesterday afternoon to Fort Pitt, Chatham. On Saturday the reinforcements for the Bth (the King's), 19th, 20th, 24th, 29th, and 35th (Royal Suss'x) Reeiments, selected from the battalions of infantry at Chatham, left that garrison and pro ceeded to Gravesend, where they embarked from ' Custom-II:Also Quay on board the Annie Roydon, clipper, 1,170 tons, for Calcutta.

It is expected that a small body of troops will be encamped shortly on the Dines at Great Yarmouth. The 15th Hussars have left Ipswich and Norwich, and it is expected that the barracks in those towns will be for some little time unoccupied. The paddle-Wheel steamship Virago, 6, Captain Dunn, arrived in Plymouth Senna yesterday morning. She left Montevideo May 17, arrived at Rio Janeiro on the 25th, and sailed the 28th, St. Vincent June the 23d, and Fayal July the 3d. The Virago brings home Captain Jasper H. Selwyn, of the sloop Siren, on promotion, and Lieut. A. H. Fitzroy, invalided, from Rio Jaueiro. She re turns in consequence of baying broken the main shaft of her engine in the Parana. The Virago was commissioned May 7, 1856, and has been chiefly employed in the suppression of the slave-trade on the east coast of America. During the months of March and April of 1857 and 1858 her crew suf fered severely from yellow fever at Rio Janeiro, where she lost 2(3 men and seven officers, including Commander Haggard.

RICKETTS AND ANOTHER V. CARPENTER AND ANOTHER. EX PARTE AS TO CERTAIN RESPONDENTS. - FURTHER HEARING. This cause was appointed for hearing this morning, at 11 o'clock, to be re-argued by one counsel of a side. The further hearing of this cause, which was ad journed on Friday, was resumed this morning. Mr. Rolf:, Q.C., resumed and concluded his reply. The only point in contention is whether, upon a fair and true construction of the will of the late Gener Carpenter, the demise of an annuity of 2,500/. to the widow of hie son, the late Colonel Carpenter, who was then unmarried, in case the son survived his father, was a good and valid bequest, in the event of the son pre deceasing the father and leaving a widow. The Master of the Rolls held the bequest good, and the appellant appealed. Counsel now admitted that the demise to the grandson was good, but disputed the bequest to his father's widow. At the conclusion of the argument of counsel, the Lord Chancellor adjourned the farther consideration of the case till Thursday. POLICE INTJ:LLTGENCE.—(This Day .) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A SUNDAY NIGHT IN GREEN'S- COURT.Z—James Gibbons was charged with assaulting Mary Moran, in Green's court, Soho. The complainant said she wag in Green's-court on the previous night, when she had a few words with the wife of the prisoner, and shortly after the prisoner Caine up and struck her, and while on the ground kicked her vio lently in the mouth. Two or three men came up and separated them, and she was taken into a house, and advised to stay till he would be gone. Mr. Lewis, who appeared for the prisoner, put several questions to the prosecutrix, from which it appeared that she and prisoner's wife, in addition to having " a few words," were dragging each other about by the hair of the head, a thing not at all uncommon in the court, and one witness observed that he thought nothing of such things in the court, for it appears that the cases from the locality, of a similar nature, gave the court at times plenty of business—that morning two or three applications for warrants and summonses having been granted by the magistrate. Police-constable Barnes was called, and he said flat he thought the wound on the prosecutrix's mouth was done by a blow and not a kick. The prisoner was fined 402., or a month', The prosecu rix came into court afterwards and said she had been threatened to have her life taken fc,r coming into curt. Mr. Beadon sent an officer to caution the peraoa cc,xn plated of. THAMES ROBBING AN ORCHARD.—SITAIMAIIY PUNISHMENT.— Two boys, named Alfred Waller and James Barker, were brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with etealing apples. Mr, Joseph Smith, solicitor, defended the prisoners, Samuel Saville, a gardener, of No. 2, Plough Cottages, Stepney, said ho was in the employ of Mr. James Adams, the proprietor of a garden and orchard arjoin ing the Tower Hamlets Cemetery. On Saturday after noon he found the two prisoners picking apples from a tree in the garden of his em pl o y er , an d putting them into a handkerchief on the ground. The handkerchief was full of apples, and he valued them at is. In cross-examination by Mr. Smith, the witness said he flogged the two boys, one with a cord and the other with a stick. He also made them fast to a tree and kept theses tied up until his governor came. Mr. Salfe—lf you think proper to take the law into your own hands I can't punish them, and they are dis charged. &Ir.r. Smith said the boys were treated with barbarous cruelty by Savage, he meant Saville, and he in tended to apply fora summons against the gardener for assaulting them. The hack of one boy was in an awful state—in fact in such a state as was almost beyond belief. The boys bared their back, and there were a faw marks such as would happen after a slight punishment. Mr. Selfe—l have often bad a worse back thkii either of these boys, There has been no unnecessary severity. POLICE INTELLIGE.NCE.-July 10. GUILDII A LL. —ErfEAORDINAEX CASE OF AFFI LIATIOX.--A most extraordinary c a se o f affiliation was decid e d at t hi s c9urt on Satu r day, by Alder manOn the Gabri e l an d Alderman Hale. The cas e b a d b een four Vines before the Court previously, tilbtelday. and remanded for further evidence un behalf of t h e plaint i ff, Ann Butler, that s h e w as a previous exa mi n ati on it was shown on inr.rried woman, formerly. living. at Horsham , in Sussex, and that her husband had deserted her in 1841 and had gone to Anierica, since which time she had seen riethin(r of Vim. of their acqua4tance did The defendant, T. Retford, the elder, N7assitetired butcher, residing in West-streef, Horsham, and he became acquainted with the plaintiff, but the precise date of the com inencemeotappeared money not transpire. It must, hOwever, have been prior to 1847, as it was sent years 1847 and 1848 from :fforsha.m,• while she was Eying at Brighton. During' tb her during during the 1849 no money appeared to have been sent to plaintiff ; but in the beginningcf 1850 s he was sent there A gain, and on Feb. 6 she was delivered of a chikl. The defendant gave the plaintiff's mother 31. to p a ,yttho doctor, the nurse, and other e x penses attending the confinement, which it was stated she sent to her daughter by a post-office , f rom order Jane Monnery to Ann Btu t 1 e r . grs. Green, the plaintiff's sister, also pr . eyed re cjving various suing of money from defendant for har Sister for y ears after t h e birth of the child ; mo s t of which Was t ranszn i tted b y .i)ost-office , order The regular periodical payments Were kept up till the month of March last, when they ceased, and the re sult WAS the preent procei4ding4. Mr. Burt, solicitor of East Grinstead, crosz-eia mined the witnesses very closely as to the mon e y Win; sent by 13)st-office orders at the times stated, and then contended that, as he waa in a posi tion to negative that portion of the evidence, the magistrates ought not to crldit ale other Ortion of it. Alderman G - Abriel said he did'not th Tlll it was of any conscquenca the inaccuracy in the statenseut about transmitting the money; fur if it had been naisapproprieed it would not have af f ected thy. question. The real print was, had :he defendant givep. the 3/. and other sums for the specific pur pose of maint3ining the child. Mr. Burt said he contended that the money had never been given at all, anti there was no corrobe rative• proof of any one payment. Besides th a t h e contendtd rhat the child was no illgiti nytte, as the. husband of the plaint:if was liVing in England from G, JULY 12, 1858. 1847 to 1850 in the vicinity of where the wife re sided, and there was no impediment to their meet ing. He was in a condition to prove the prezence of the husband iu Horsham at the times lie had stated, and also that no post-office orders had been sent to the plaintiff at the times stated. Looking at these circumstances, and the advanced age of the defendant, he trusted the magistrates would hesi tate before they would bastardise a child on such doubtful evidence. He then called John Grazebrook, who said he was a butcher, residing at West-street, Horsham. He knew Henry Butler, the husband of Ann Butler. He saw him last Sunday at Shoreham, but he was living at Brighton. He knew that he went to America, the first time in 1841, and returned in July, 1847, and left again in July, 1850. He did not remem ber having seen him during the years 1818 and 1849, but believed he must have seen and drunk beer with him several times. He never saw his wifi with him. Mr. William Goldsmith, the present postmaster of Horsham, produced the post-office books, by which it appeared that no sum of 3/. had been sent to the plaintiff during the year 1850 ; that no order had been sent during the whole of the year 1849, but that for some years, both before and after, she had been in the habit of receiving them. Mr. Burt submitted, on this evidence, he was entitled to the decision of the Court in favour of his client. Alderman Gabriel said his brother magistrate and himself had not the slightest hesitation in adjudg ing the defendant to be the father of the child, and made an order for the payment of 2s. 6d. per week and costs. Mr. Burt said, with all duo respect, he would appeal against the decision. BOW-STREET. —John Winter and Charles Wellbeloved, described as "commission agents," were charged with causing an obstruction in Great Queen•street, by betting. One of the constables of the F division (Venes, 96) stated that he was in Qmeen-street, Lincoln's inn -fields, at two o'clock in the afternoon, when he saw the defendants standing together on the pave ment. One of them was looking at a newspaper, and the other was writing something in a book. He knew they were betting, and therefore he de sired them to go away. They refused, Winter say ing, "If I go anywhere I'll go to Bow-street to re port you, for you have no right to interfere with me." I then took them into custody. On our way to the station Winter stopped and said, "I want to step in hero for a moment," pointing to a shop. I said, "No, you won't, though, you'll go to Bow street ;" and I refused to let him go into the shop. He then struck me a violent blow in the face. The prisoners were seaeched at the station, and several betting-books, papers, Sec., were found upon them. Ho had cautioned the prisoners once before the same morning. Mr. Jardine, who appeared somewhat surprised at the charge, sent over for the sergeant on duty at the station, upon which it was explained that the ciarge wns not for betting in the street, but for "causing an obstruction by betting in the street." He added that there were great complaints of the assemblage of people for betting opposite a cigar shop inQueen-street. The defendants complained of the unwarrantable interference of the police. There was no obstruc tion—there could be none in a broad thoroughfare like, Queen-street from two people talking together, and yet they were dragged through the streets, and searcbe.l at the police station like common felons. Surely there could ba no law in England to justify such treatment as this. Winter admitted that he struck the officer, but under great provocation, for his arm was black and blue from the unnecessary violence used by the constasl,.. Mr. Jardine said it was perfectly lawful, no dou'r,t, to t:i.ke any persons into custody who per sisted in obstructing the footways by congregating together and betting there. The obstruction was not proved in this ca. , _e, and therefore the defend ants might be discharged. THE DAGENHAM' MURDER. On Saturday morning George 13lowitt, a farm labourer, was brought up for the third titne before a full bunch of magistrates, at the Court-house ad joining Ilford Gaol, Essex, charged with being con cerned with several persons in the Murder of Geo. Clarke, a police constable of the K division, who was found lying dead and mutilated in a corn-field in the parish of Dagenham, on the evening of Fri day, July 3, 1846. Mr. 11:awlings, solicitor, of Ronaford, appeared for the prisoner. Mr. Supeiilitendent Howie, of the K and Inspector Whieher, of the detective force, were in attendance on the part of the Metropolitan Police Commissioners. The Chairman addressed Inspector Whicher, who had charge of the case since the prisoner's appre hension, and ssked him if he had been able to ob tain any additional evidence iu con%exion with the murder ? Inspector Whicber answered in the negative,. and said that be and other officers had been engaged, but they had not succeeded in getting any o• her testimony. The rumours that were in circulation last week were unfounded. If they had been true they would have been highly important in the case. The Chairman.—Then you have no other evi dence to bring before the bench? Inspector Whicher.—No, excepting that this morning, just before I entered the court, the wit ness Smith said that she had someth;ng mom to say. I told Ler that she had bettor not tell me, but state what she had to say before the magistrates. The Chairman—ls the witness Smith here ? Inspector Whicher—Ye ,,, , Sir. The woman Smith was here interrogated, and on being sworn was allowed a seat near the bench. The Chairman—What have you to say in addi tion to your lest statement? Witirs—l am certain that George Blewitt is the second man who struck the polic,t , rnin Clarke. The Chairman (to the chief clerk)—Then let the depositions be read over. The clerk having done so, the witness Smith said—l also saw Mrs. Blewitt and Henry Blewitt, the son, at the cottage on the night of the murder. I did not see Mrs. Blewitt afterwards. The c ha i rma ,,..._Wh-) is Henry Blewitt Mr. Rawliug,, the solicitor (to the prisoner)_ Henry Blewitt is your son 7 Prisoner—Yes, sir. Too chief clerk then inquired if there were any other questions to be asked of the witnesses ; when Ins ector Whicher s girl there was one other ques tion he wished to pit to the witness Archer, who made a statement on Monday week last that he saw the deceased (Clarke) late on the night of the mur der pass his (Archer's) house, while at the inquest held upon the body of deceased he (Archer) had sta - el quite the contrary. Archer was recallol, and said he did see the de ceased on the niriht in question. Inspector Whicher said—l apprehended the pri soner in the parish of Dagenham, Essex, on the 29th of June last, where I charged him with being con cerned with other persons in the murder of George Clarke; when he replied, "I will go with you, f. , r I am quite sure that ;;he (Slrs. Smith) cannot say anything to hurt me." Mr. iiawlings here rose, and wished to ask Mrs. Smith why she Ind not informed the Court before that Mrs. Blewitt and her son were present at the cottage on the night of the murder? Mrs. Satith, in reply, said—Because I had for go'ten it. The Chairman said, as they had no other evi dence, he and his colleagues would retire, and after an absence of 20 minutes they returned info court. Upon resuming his seat the Chairman said—We have determined that this important and mysterious case, which has attracted so much , public notice, shall be submitted to another tribunal. The prisoner was then addressed by the Chair man, and cautioned in the usual form when he said, " I am no t gu il ty of it. " , After a few words from the Chairman, the pri soner was removed from the bar. The whole of the witnesses were then bound over to prosecute, and the trial was appointed to take place at the ensuing assizes at Chelmsford. NEW SWISS RAILWAT.—The railway from Geneva to Ceppet has just been opened to the public. The line runs along the lake, and the point's of view from one end to the other are exceedingly fine. There aro three sta tions or this short line. ALLEGED MISCONDUCT OF AN ENGLISHMAN AT THE MADELE/NE.—Th e Nord of Brussels having in a letter from Paris, accused the Abbe Deauerry, the core of the Madeleine, of having had three Englishmen turned out of the church while quietly witnessing a funeral service, the Univers publ:alies a letter from t`le abbe, in which he says :—" Three Englishmen were seated, not in a pro per manner, but half turned round, and with their elbows on the top of their chairs to the right of tho catafalque. When we had passed near them in proceeding to receive the body at the door of the church, they never rose, but kept in the same strange position. I hoped that on our return, seeing nit come in procession before the body of the deceased, they would at least have talc, nlt better position, even if they did not stand up, which they. were called upon to do out of respect to the . b; dy and the mourners who followed it. They, however, did not move, but remained seated, with their arms thrown carelessly over the backs of their chairs. I then considered it my duty to oblige them not to leave the church, but to place themselves at a greater distance from the ceremony. I did not order them to be turned out of the church, but to be placed beyond the chapel; opposite to which the body was about to be placed." MARKET NEWS.-4This ) CORN EXCHANGE. There was a steady, but by no means active demand for wheat in most of the country markets held on Saturday, and prices of all kinds were rather on the advance. For spring corn and flour, the inquiry ruled firm at extreme rates. The continental marketS were much less firm for both wheat and spring corn, owing to the fine rains which have lately fallen. Our American advices continue inactive. Up to our market last week, the arrivals of English grain wore very moderate. The imports from abroad were limited for the time of year, viz., 7,223 quarters of ' wheat, 2,702 barley, 6,714 oats, 439 beans, 770 peas, 45 linseed, 75 hempseed, and 50 sacks of flour. The arrivals of English wheat, fresh up to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, wore moderate, but in good condi tion. Ile attendance of both town and country buyers was by no means extensive, and for all kinds of wheat of home produce we experienced a slow inquiry, when com pared with Monday last, at about that day's improvement in value to is per quarter decline. Our millers are very short of stock, and there is scarcely any foreign flour in the market. There was a full average quantity of foreign wheat on offer, chiefly ex granary. Fine dry samples were hold firmly for more money; but sales progressed slowly. In low and inferior qualities very little was doing on former terms. About an average business was transacted in floating cargoes of grain at full quotations. Scarcely any home-grown barley was on offer, and the show of foreign was very moderate. The barley trade ruled steady on former terms. Malt was in moderate re quest at full prices. The export demand having fallen off there was less ac tivity in the oat trade. Prices, however, were supported. The few beans in the market sold at full quotations. Peas were in steady request at extreme quotations. We had a fair demand for flour at last week's improve ment in value. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE. Wneat—Essox 3; Kent.

About an average time of year supply of beasts was re ceived fresh up from our own grazing districts, and the condition of most breeds was good. Prime beef was in fair request, and last rilonday'4 quotations were well sup ported. Otherwise, the demand ruled heavy, and foreign stock sold at reduced currencies. The general top figure for beef was 4s 4d per 81bs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 1,200 Scots and short horns ; from Lincolnshire, 720 short horns; from other parts of England, 300 of various breeds ; and, from Scotland, 76 Scots. With sheep we were again extensively supplied, but their condition was by no means first-rate. All breeds met a slow sale at a decline in the quotations of 2d per 81bs. The lamb trade-- owing to increased supplies— was heavy in the extreme, and prices gave way 4d per 81bs. About 500 lambs came fresh to hand from Ireland. The few English calves in the market sold at full prices ; but foreign calves were rather cheaper. Iu pigs very little business was transacted, at last week's currency.

SINGULAR CIRonaISTANGE.—In relation to the Hitless and death of Col. Campbell, of the 90th Regiment, at Lucknow, Mrs. Case, in her Journal of the Siege, men tions the following :—" A white fowl had been brought to Mrs. Inglis for sale, hut she thought the price, five rupees, much too high. However, Col. Inglis bought it. Ice legs were secured, and it constantly hopped about before our door. Mrs. Inglis thought it was too bad that it should be eating our lice, and was just going to order it to be killed and cooked for dinner, when little Jobe ny claies running into the room—' Mamma, mamma, the ,A hits fowl has laid an eg g This saved its life. Col. Campbell was very fond of an egg—it was the only thing he could take well. The white fowl from this notable day laid an egg daily till Colonel Campbell died, after which it never laid another. We have brought the fowl away, and maybe it will some day be in England." I AWE ELTIMEMENT.
