(Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL.—MOTION FOR JUDGMENT.-PAEISII V. THE LORD CHANCELLOR AND THE SLEEMAN. This was an appeal from an order of Vice-Chancellor Sir John Stuart, on his chief clerk's certificate (Mr. Ileatih), and adopted by the Master of the Rolls in preparing the covenants of the lease between the parties holding that the tenant (appellant) was bound to pay the land-tax and rant charge in addition to £lO of annual rent. The Lord Chancellor was of a different opinion, and held that the tenant was not bound to pay either the land-tax or the rent charge, in addition to his annual rent of X4O, and varied the chief clerk's certificate to that extent, without costs on either side. INNS OF COURT VOLUNTEERS. ROLLS' COURT. (Before the Master of the Rolls and a Special Jury.) MORRISON V, BARROW.—TRIAL BY JURY AND MOTION FOR DECREB, PART HEARD. The further hearing of this cause, which has extended over two days, was resumed this morning at ten o'clock. The contention is, whether the agreement of July 29, 1859, for a supply of coal from Mr. Barrow's coal nines, in. Derbyshire, of 1,200 tons annually-900 at 35., and 300 at 2s. per ton for an unexpired term of 21 years, was entered into by him or his agent, Mr. Helton. The jury returned a verdict for tho plaintiff. The business in the courts of law at Westminster this morning was devoid of public interest. In the Court of Queen's Bench Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., was engaged arguing a point of law with respect to the taxation of a bill of costs in an arbitration case. In the Court of Exchequer Mr. Tindal Atkinson occupied the attention of the learned judges with a cause of illegal distraint. Mr. Justice Black burn sat in the Bail Court hearing a case of false imprison ment; and in the Probate and Divorce Court Sir C. Cress well, the Judge-Ordinary, was engaged hearing the argu ments of Dr. Deane in an application for probate of a will in the cause of Marsh v. Marsh and others. The cause bids fair to be a long ono, as the testator, a barrister, made no less than 25 wills, with nearly as many codicils, during his lifetime, and now no loss than 16 lawyers are engaged to asocrtain the intentions of the testator. SIIERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) THE STATUTE OF FRAUDS.*-IMPORTANT JUDGMENT..-- WYNN T. HENDRY. This was an action for goods sold and delivered. Plaintiff's case was that on a certain day defendant, and the captain of defendant's vessel, called in company with a gentleman named Crowder, and ordered 40 deals to be seat on board the ship. Soma were sent by truck, and some by water. Those sent by truck were duly received and ac cepted, but those sent by barge were refused. Mr. Crowder deposed that he advised defendant to take the rejected deals to Natal, at which port witness's brother would buy them. This forenoon tke members of the Ist and 2d companies of the Inns of Court Volunteers assembled in the Lord Chancellor's Court, to be sworn in by his lordship. The court was crowded. The LORD CHANCELLOR, previous to administering the oath, delivered the following address to the volunteers : It gives me high satisfaction that I have been called upon to administer to you the oath of allegiance on your entering as volunteers into the military service of the Crown. I rejoice in the national movement which is now displayed ; and the ardour with which you participate in it seems to me to be very creditable to the profession to which we belong. You are ready to defend the liberties of your country, not only in the forum, but in the field. (Cheers.) Gentle men, this movement is not prompted by any immediate apprehension of danger, nor from suspicion of the de signs of any particular foreign ruler or state. Fortunately, we are in amity with all nations, and I trust that we are long likely to continue so. (Hear, hear.) But the opinion generally prevails, and I believe is well founded, that the martial disposition of our population has not of late years been sufficiently encouraged, and that our defences against foreign invasion have not kept pace with the in creased facilities of effecting a landing on cur sacred soil. (Hear, hear.) Hence the danger of panic at home, and of holding out a temptation abroad, to take advantage of our supposed unpreparedness. England is free from all notion of aggression ; we are satiated with the excess of colo nial and foreign possessions, and we desire, without in terruption to cultivate the pursuits of peace—(hear, hear) —but to secure these blessings we must bear in mind that war may come upon us unexpectedly, and that to ward off invasion we must be prepared to repel it. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, in my early youth, when a student of law, I myself was a soldier; and perhaps I might say, " Militari non sine gloria." (Cheers.) I served in a most distinguished corps " the Inns of Court 'V olunteers" of that day remarkable for its discipline and efficiency ; and I had the honour of being reviewed in Hyde-park by his Majesty George 111., along with above 100,000 volunteers then and therd'assembled, ready to march to the coast. On the first alarm of the sailing of the Armada at Boulogne which only waited a fair wind for Sandwich or Pevensey. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, we did our duty while the war lasted ; but we, or rather the government of that time, must be blamed for allowing all the volunfeer corps in the king dom—amounting, I believe, to between three and four hun dred thousand men—to be disbanded and dissolved as soon as peace was proclaimed. (Hear, hear.) For near half a‘ century we have had no citizen soldiers among us, and we have depended for our safety against invasion on de fenders regularly in the pay of the state, who, renouncing all civil employments, professionally devote themselves to arms. (Hear, hear.) These are most gallant defenders, and we place unbounded confidence in their heroism ; but they may be greatly outnumbered by the immense bands of veteran troops who may be disembarked on our shores, and they ought to be supported by our citizens voluntarily trained to arms in every county, city, and parish in the realm. (Hear, hear.) Gentlemen, it delights me to think that we approximate to a consummation so devoutly to be wished for. You have seen a noble example which, I doubt not, will be universally followed, and let me ex press my anxious hope for your steadiness and perseverance in your military career. As the movement does not proceed from any momentary impulse or temporary cause, let it be permanent. (Cheers.) I have to congratulate you on being furnished with a now weapon, the Enfield rifle, said to be so much superior to that to which we trusted—the now ridiculed " Brown Bess." In devoting a portion of each day to martial exercises, I can say, from observation and experience, that you will neither impede your legal studies nor injure the interest of your clients. (Hear, hear.) Let the rifle be now daily in the hands of our fellow citizens as the bow was once in the hands of our ancestors ; and may English riflemen be as superior to all others as English bowmen once were. (Cheers.) The oath was then administered. 21118 DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET. Although the supply of beasts on sale to-day was only moderate, the demand for all breeds ruled inactive, at Mon day's decline in the quotations. The show of sheep was rather on the increase. The primest Do erns and half-breds supported previous rates, but long wools were dull, and in some instances 2d per Blbs. lower in price. Calves, though in moderate supply, changed hands slowly, and the curren cies had a drooping tendency. The top quotation was 5s 4d per Sibs. Pigs moved off slowly, on former terms.

Beasts Sheep .... 5,380, Sheep Calves Pigs Plaintiff said that 40 deals were ordered, and 40 sent. Mr. Buchanan contended that the delivery of deals by land was the quantity ordered. Those sent by water were not ordered, not accepted, and therefore could not be reco ♦ered for. Mr. Wynn—lf he had ordered brands, brands would have been sent. Defendant said that ho only ordered the quantity sent by land. He required boarls to place between some salt and the dry goods on board. Deals were of no use. When the deals sent by lighter were rejected, Mr. Crowder recom mended that the deals should be handed over to his brother, who would pay for them. Defendant expected freight for them. Mr. Crowder—l never received a freight note. Defendant—Freight is paid on the other side. Mr. Buchanan then produced a book in which was en tared the order to plaintiff, and there it stood as 40 boards. His Honour ruled that by the statute of frauds plaintiff could not recover for the goods sent by water and rejected. There was a division of a quantity of goods. Plaintiff would have a verdict for £3 Ils. 5d., being for those sent by land. NON-LIABILITY OF ){ASTERS FOR SERVANTS' ACTIO:IS-- HOARE V. GURDIS. This was an action to recover £1 for clothes supplied to a sailor. An advance note was produced, and after some objection on the part of defendant by Mr. Davies, plaintiff said he was not going upon the advance note, he was pro ceeding for goods sold and delivered. The facts were that defendant's servant called upon the plaintiff with the sailor and said Mr. Gurdis would be answerable for the amount. The goods were sent. Defendant's servant at the time, now not in defendant's employment, denied that he did pledge his master's credit, but plaintiff's shopman corroborated Mr. Hoare in every particular. Mr, Gurdis was then put into the box, and denied that ho ever authorised the servant to pledge his credit. His Honour—Defendant must have a verdict with coats, and plaintiff can bring his action against the servant kr deceit. WYMA.EX V. JUDKINS.-THE SEWING MACHINE. This was an action to recaver £lO cash paid for a sewing machine, one of defendant's patents. Mr. Buchanan appeared for the plaintiff, a widow, and said that £lO had been paid for a machine sold by defen dant, but which machine would not sow. Mr. Mortimer said he paid £lO out of Xl2, and the machine was sent to the plaintiff. It would not work, neither could defendant's man make it. Mr. Worley deposed that he took the machine back to the defendant, who said he would not give 50s. for it. Defendant said that the machine was a very excellent one and worked beautifully, and it was false for any one to say that defendant's man could not work it. The plaintiff came to defendant and took lessons, and after breaking a needle in the machine left the premises. Defendant was willing to give plaintiff anotner machine when some new ones were made. His Honour found for the plaintiff. Defendant had plaintiff's £lO, and had received his machine back. There was no doubt plaintiff was a troublesome woman, and in all future cases defendant had better make an out and out bar gain. Defendant—l have sold 1,500 machines, and never had a complaint before. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DA F.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. OBTAINING GOODS Br FALSE PRETENCES. - Ann Walker, a servant, was charged before Mr. Bingham with obtaining a gnantity of grocery goods from the shop of Mr. Joseph Dobson, grocer, 288, Oxford-street, by false pre tences. Mr. Dobson said the prisoner came into his shop on the previous evening and ordered some grocery to be got ready by her return in a few minutes. On coming the second time she took up the articles from the counter, and raid, "They're for the Victory," and as the proprietor of that house (Mr. Turner) was a customer, he allowed her to have them; but the thought coming across his mind that he did not know her, be rent an assistant after her, and he found that instead of going to Mr. Turner's she went up Oxford street. Ho sent to Mr. Turner, who said she had loft his house about two months. Mr. Turner, of the Victory, 167, Oxford-street, said the prisoner left his service two months, and she had no autho rity to obtain goods in his name. A brother of the prisoner stepped forward and said he believed his sister had acted under the control of her hus band, and that she was only from Yorkshire 10 months. Mr. Bingham said he should remand her for a week to see whether this was the only case against her. Sllor ROBBERY. -Arthur Steggall was charged with stealing, from the shop of Mr. Richard Tucksy, *draper, of 58, Mortimer-street, a Paisley shawl of the value of 18s. Mr. F. Tuckey, brother of the prosecutor, proved hear ing a noise in the doorway of the shop on the previous evening, and on going ont saw the shawl drop from pri soner's hand. The prisoner said another man took it. The value of the shawl was 18s. He had lost two dresses on Saturday night in a similar manner. Prisoner denied taking the shawl, and said he was in employ as a tailor. Police-constable 47 E said the prisoner gave a correct address, and he knee the other man alluded to as a bad character. Mr. Bingham remanded the prisoner, offering to take bail. THAMES. IMPUDENT ROBBERY ON BOARD A SllTP.—James John son, a well-known thief, about 50 years of age, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged with stealing a jacket, the property of Auguste Volckman, a German sailor belonging to th 3 foreign ship Edward Charlotte. This morning the Edward Charlotte was being hauled out of the Wapping basin of the London Docks into the river, and the prosecutor took off his jacket and laid it upon the deck while he was at work. Tho prisoner took the op portunity while the crew were busily engaged to snatch up the jacket and immediately jump on shore. The robbery was immediately discovered, and a Thames police-constable, a constable of the II division, and several labourers and ethers went in pursuit of the thief. He was traced from street to street for nearly an hour until the track was lost for a short time. While the officers and others in pursuit of the prisoner were making inquiries about him ho made his appearance ;in High-street, Wapping, and was taken into custody. Ho was asked for the jacket he had stolen, and he took the officers to a house in Tent-street, St. George, near the London Dock wall, where the jacket was discovered. It was now identified by the owner. A Thames police .constable said the prisoner had been twice convicted of felony, and that on tho last occasion he was sentenced to four months' imprisonment and hard labour for stealing copper in the London Dock. The prisoner said he had been at work on board ship and picked up the jacket by mistake. Mr. Selfe—You stole the jacket. You take advantage of ships leaving the dock to steal anything yox can lay your hands on. I sentence you W one wouth's imprisonment and hard labmr. MEAT MARKETS. NZWOATE AND LEADENHALL.

The .magnificent ship Cherubim, of B a lti more , which now lies at Market-street wharf discharging her cargo, arrived at this port on the 19th ult., but for many weeks previous t o h er arr i va l muc h anxiety had been felt for her fate, as she left New York early last spring. A s s h e was k nown t o b e a fast sailer and a staunch vessel, the probabilities were even stronger that she had been utterly lost. From her first officer we have gathered the story of her long detention out, and it is a hard one. The Cherubim left New York on the 9th of May ; it was 193 days afterwards that she entered our harbour. But when she did arrive, she came in perfect order and in capital condition. She seems to have suffered all the nautical troubles that could possibly be crowded inside of 193 days. She was 46 days drifting through calms and beating against light headwinds before she reached the equator on the other side. Off Cape Horn the wind was a gale, and directly in the teeth of the good ship, which plunged and rolled and staggered under it for 56 days. On the 19th of August she sighted the island of Diego Ramirez to the west, some 20 miles. Just 19 days afterwards, after a prodigious deal of hard sailing, they sighted the same island, bearing in nearly the same direction about 15 miles off ! The wretched Horn once rounded, matters were more moderate till they reached Valparaiso, into which place the ship put for water and medical attendance—for ti • cruelest of the story is yet to be told. On the morning of the 25th August, while things were at the worst off the Cape, and there were some two feet of water rolling across the main deck, it was found that the top of the pipe leading down to the water tank, in which the whole water supply is kept, was gone. The salt water, of course, poured down into the tank, and the 40,000 gallons, upon which they had confidently relied, was every drop of it ruined. It was impossible that this could be the result of an accident. The pipe was plugged up tightly at once, and a piece of canvas nailed over it. Next morning plug and canvas were both gone. Who perpetrated the villany it was never discovered, but his object was readily surmised; Some poor fellow, in his despair, hoped by spoiling the water to compel the ship to put back. Providentially, a single cask on deck, as provision against accident, had been filled just before the mishap. All hands, officers, men, and passengers, among whom were Captain Skinner's wife and ohildren, were put upon an allowance of a pint a day,':from that time till their arrival at Valparaiso, 35 days afterwards. Of provisions there was an abundance, the ship having taken a year's supply at Now York. The exposure brought on scurvy, with which, one after another, many were terribly afflicted. One man died and was buried at sea. Four others were left in the hosr,ital at Valparaiso, but were doing well when lasi seen. Fresh supplies of water at that place, and a tarry long enough to give all parties fresh meat and vegetables enough, restored health on shipboard. The ship had a pretty good time from Valparaiso, arriving at San Francisco 43_4ays.—San Frazto . sco paper, THIRD EDITION. AS UN OFFICE, Six o' Clock. TA TTE n SALL S'—(THIS EVENING.)

TEE FRENOII EXPEDITION TO CHINA We learn front Toulon, of the 7th (states the Pat?* of Tuesday), that the last preparations for the expedition to China arc just completed. That magnificent vess4 31, La Reine des Clippers, freighted by the Government to receive a portion of the mili tary passengers that were disembarked from the sailing frigates, Las just left the port on her voyage to Hong Kong. _ _ The arranger ants ordered by the Emperor to reduce the crowding of the troop vessels have al ready produced the best results. The two screw transports, the. Rhin and Nicvre, anchored in Santa Cruz roads, at !Teneriffe, on the 22d December, tutd the report sent 1 tome to the naval authorities states that neither vessel has had a case of sickness ; and in regard to air, room, and food, cl ery man on board was satisfied that his hygienic position was ex cellent. There remains at Toulon only the Duperre, whose equipment is rapidly advancing, and she will be ready for sea in a few days. This vessel is placed under the coran Land of Captain Bourgeois, who on arriving in Chitia is, it'is said, to be appointed to the superinteniience of the division of iron gun boats. The construction of these gunboats is going on with great activity, and they will be completed by the time agreed. on. Several are finished and one of them is even vow undergoing her last trials. As they are all of the same model as regards hull, en gines, and armutnent, it will be needless to try them all. It is thought that the European steam trans port will be able to begin shipping six gunbeats she is to take to Chita about the 15th. The others will soon follow. Several of the seaport journals have spoken of a plan now in agitation for establishing a steam packet service between France and Indo-China. The statement is right in the main, though some of the details may "be rectified. The necessity of the route through :Egypt is admitted. Thence the principal line would run from Suez to Shanghai, having several lwanch lines, one of which would certainly be directed to Reunion. Shanghai has been fixed on for the Chinese end of the line because it is now the most important of all the Chinese ports, and becaut e it is the great market for China silk, of which the French manufacturers have been for years consiolerable consumers. Shanghai is besides the place best adapted for the residence of Europeans, and offers most convenience for the re pair of vessels, and for a - coal depot. ATROCIOUS MURDERS AT SR.]. The first and. second mates of the American barque Anna, of New York, have boon brought this week before the magistrates for the Isle of Wight, on the information of John Thomas and Abraham Rock, seamen on board the vessel, on a charge of having murdered. John Turtle and several other sea men during the voyage from Legona to England. The information of the dreadful circumstances was communicated to the police on the vessel arriving at Cowes. The names of the mates are Edmund Lane and George Hires. It appears that the vessel first sailed from New York to Mobile in June last, with a crew consisting of eight men betides the captain and officers, and they included 3 elm Turtle, a man known on board as Frank, William Johnson, David Pagins, James Armstrong, and William Pomeroy, who are now dead. At Mobile Lane struck Armstrong on the right eye with a mallet, felled him from the fore castle to the maindeck, and knocked out his eye. He was then sent by Hires to do something to an "ear-ring" under the bowsprit, but being unable to do so he was dragged along in the water until Abraham Rock went to his assistance, when Lane exclaimed, "Don't haul the nigger in ; cut the ear ring and let him go !" In two minutes after Arm strong let go his hold and was lost. The ship sailel from Mobile to Legona, in South America, and from thence to Cowes. On the voyage Hires accused Turtle of stealing rum from his cabin, and as he was obeying one of the mates' orders Hires caught him by his head, hauled him down upon the deck, stamped on his head, and kicked him with his heavy sea-boots. Turtle's head and eyes were observed to be bleeding, and he went to his berth. Hires said to a seaman, Thomas tell him, " If he don't come out and get on to the pumps, I'll murder him." The unfortunate man's reply was, " I can't get up if they kill me." Hires went to him, pulled him out of the bunk by his ears, threw him down in the forecastle, and stamped upon him heavily. He was laid by Thomas in the forecastle. In a few minutes Hires said, " Tom, is that old nigger dead yet ?" He was then dying, and expired the same night. His body was sewn up and thrown overboard two days afterwards. While he was being sewn up it was seen that the bone of the forehead was broken in the " centre. The same morning a scuffle was heard in the sail-room ; it proved to be Hires holding Johnson down on the tool chest, with both hands to his throat, chok ing him. There was blood issuing from his mouth, and he died at six o'clock the same day. He said, previously to his death, " Jack, I feel very bad, and am dying—the mate has choked me to death." His tongue was hanging out of his mouth. The man Frank died about seven days before the arrival of the vessel at Cowes, after having been severely beaten by the chief mate, who said, while the man was at the wheel, " If you go a quarter of a point off your course I'll murder you." Directly after Lane struck him on the head with a belaying pin. This took place off the Start Point. The man cried " Murder" twice, said " Oh, God!" several times, and called once for the captain. The unfortunate men who fell victims to the brutality of their officers were men of colour. The prisoners have been remanded. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.

The Constitutionnel publishes the following letter from one of the'Sisters of Charity who farm part of the mission to Siam. It is dated from Bangkok, sth November : " You are aware that our vessel was ordered to call at this place on her way to her destination. We arrived at the mo - ith of the river Menam on the 11th Sept., and, in order that we might not lose time in going up the river, the captain hired a large covered barge to convey us to Bangkok. We started in the evening with a brilliant moon light, and arrived at about five in the morning. We met with the kindest reception from Mgr. Pal legoin, and attended mass with him, while the captain occupied himself with procuring lodgings for us in the town. The news of our arrival soon spread; the native Christians told the missionaries in the neighbourhood that the French religieuses with white wings (alluding to our head-dress) had come, 2nd several of them hastened to welcome us. We told them that we were only birds of passage among them. All, even the _venerable bishop, walked about barefoot. Soon after Ave bad taken possession of the lodgings which the captain had found fur us, we were visited by a schoolmistress and a number of Christian girls, who brought us presents of fruit and cakes. For some few days we never went out excspt to attend. mass. On the 16th the first Prince of the kingdom paid us a visit, accompa nied by Viscount de Castlenau and an interpreter, and followed by a number of slaves who walked with their heads almost bent to the ground. The Prince is tall, but so corpulent that he could scarcely walk. His dress consisted of a long silk robe, a white calico wai s t co at, an d a scar f o f y e ll ow silk. He was barefooted. His head was shaved in the Siamese fashion, with only a tuft left on the crown. The first slave carried a gold box containing betel nut, and the second a gold vase containing cigars and a pocket-book. The Prince, on entering, saluted us in the European style, and put some questions as to our professions and our occupations. He told us us that if we wished to see the first King, the Consul had only to apply for an audience. On leaving, the Prince tapped our captain on the shoulder, and said he should be very glad to see lain at his house. The Consul, at our request, arrangad that the visit to the King should take place on the 3d October. On that day we proceeded from our residence to the palace, which is at some distance, in the barge of Monseigneur, ornamented with the French flag ; the Consul and a French missionary follow ed us, each in his boat. On landing we had to walk under a burning sun through a long street paved with red bricks, and as we passed we saw the stables of the royal elephants. We were received at the palace by a page under a sort of canopy, and were requested to sit down while he an nounced our arrival to the King. We had to wait for some time, when the Consul, seeing that we were fatigued, sent a second message, and we were immediately admitted. The court of the palace was filled with an immense number of slaves seated on their heels. The King stood to receive us at the door of the audience chamber. He is a man of middle height and very thin, and the ex pression of his countenance has a sternness which marks the absolute sovereign. His dress consisted of a long loose silk dress, a white shirt, a small thin silk waistcoat, and a Scotch cap and slippers embroidered with gold. The consul presented us, and the missionary addressed a few words to his Majesty in the Siamese language. _The King looked at is for some moments in silence, and then, hold- ing out his hand to me, asked if I spoke English. On my replying in the affizmative, he said in that language, ‘laelies, do you wish to see the Queen Consort ?' and then, without asking the gentlemen to enter, he requested us to follow him. He walked very fast through a large hall filled with princes and mandarins, who all prostrated themselves with their faces to the ground. A number of little chil dren dressed in silk, and covered with gold chains and bracelets, flocked around us. We followed the King through several passages in the midst of a double row of females all bent to the ground. His Majesty suddenly stopped, and asked us if we spoke Latin ; he said he did, and, to convince us, recited the formula In tunnine &c. He then took the crucifix attached to our rosary, saying that he knew a great deal about our religion. We at length reached a handsome saloon furnished in the European style, and where there was an arm-chair in gold, a present from the Queen of England. On entering he introduced the Queen Consort to us. She was dressed in a long robe, with a scarf thrown over the right shoulder. she is rather a good-looking woman, and about forty years of age. The King also presented to us the Queen's three children, and a number of ladies with about thirty chil dren. He then asked us to sit down, and himself offered some figs in gold baskets ; and next opened a liquor-case, and poured out some euragao from one of the bottles, and handed a glus to each. He kept one himself, and proposed as a toast The Catholic religion and Jesus, the Saviour of the World.' The King, who constantly spoke Eng lish, talked to us of Mgr. Pallegoiu, whom he called nay ' friend,' of Queen Victoria, and of several illustrious men in England. He also spoke of the Pope, and requested us to come and look at a portrait of his Holiness, which he had in a pietty little boudoir. Wherever the King went, ho was followed by a young girl, one of the body-guard, who carried a sabre on her shoulder, and whenever his Majesty stopped, she placed herself on her knees close to him. We were afterwards conducted by the King to his library, where he complained that the worms had devoured almost all his books. Oa returning to the Queen's saloon, we found the table covered with different dishes of meat and pastry. At the close of the repast, the King handed to each of us-a small cake, and took one himself. He expressed to us the pleasure he felt at seeing French religieuses at his table. His Majesty spoke very correct English, but pronounced the words with some difficulty. v During all these ceremonies, the little children played about us with great glee, and fondly caressed us. On our leaving they all held out their hands and said Good bye,' the only English words they knew. We then took leave of his Majesty and returned to our lodgings, and in a short time after a number of slaves came, bringing us the figs which had been served at the Royal table. On the following day we returned the visit of the Prince, and were received with less etiquette than at the King's Palace. The house of the Prince formed a most singular museum. In the rooms there was a complete confusion of European, Siamese, and Chinese furniture, saddles, hats of all forms, chronometers, books, Cared' lamps, gold and silver vases, cloth and hair brushes, and caskets full of precious stones, all scattered about pele-nmcle, on and under the furniture. On our leaving, the Prince requested that we would make known in France that we had met with a welcome reception, which I promised to do." PUBLIC FEELING IN VENETIA. During the late representation of a ballet in the theatre of Treviso, a city in the Venetian provinces, the consummate agility and artistic feeling dis played by one of the performers was such as to evoke the most rapturous expressions of applause on the part of the spectators, who had gathered together in unusual members, on account of the present festive season of the year, as well as of the extreme scarcity of diversions on the other side of the Mincio—the consequence of the unhappy issue of political events. According to custom, the stage was inundated with a shower of wreaths and nosegays proceeding from every part of the house. The girl, whether yielding to the im pulse of the moment, or previ3usly instructed in the part she was to play—and the event proved her to be a docile "pupil—selected from the floral tribute which lay at her feet three wreaths—one green, the other red, and the third whits—blended them together, and advancing to the foot-lights, made a graceful acknowledgment of the enthusiastic plau dits of the multitude, and with fervid significance pressed the national colours to her bosom. The effect may be well conceived. The public re sponded to the demonstration with the rapid and spontaneous vehemence of the south. The symbol of Italian independence was greeted with frenzied and deafening acclamations. Terpsichore, in vested with the attributes of Athens Poliouchos, the guardian deity of the State, achieved a doubl triumph. On tie following morning the father of the girl was summoned before the police. IVhen, however, it was discovered that he was entirely the .pr.e cinednionecienntigofhta,llbceowmapsliciciistmy i i s tl e t d he w e it v h en a t ns aodm f_ mot mu for the future, and the recommendation to prevent the recurrence of a similar scandal, by giving strict orders to his daughter henceforth to refuse all testimonies of popular approbation, and re morselessly to trample under foot all wreaths and flowers that mi g ht be thrown to her. The dancer promised obedience, and the piece was announced first acknowledgment On th e secon d p er f ormance th e acknowledgment of her skill was an enor mous group of yellow immortelles bound with a black silk ribbon of conspicuous dimensions: In obedience to her orders, the girl advanced as on the first occasion, exhibited the black and yellow em blem to the view of the whole house, ard then de liberately placed it under her feet. If the excite ment was great before it was now increased a huncredfold. The outburst that followed baffles all description, and ended in the abrupt termination of the performances and the closing of the theatre for the remainder of the season. Messrs. Da Costa, De Brath, and Co., a respect able firm in the River Plato trade, whose stoppage for about £60,000 was announced on the 7th of November, issued a circular yesterday that they are prepared to meet their ac ceptances in full, with interest at the rate of 5 per cent. per alum, ~,' Y~ C I
