TWO O'CLOCK. 96 1 I Ditto Account (Jan.) 97 it The Madrid journals of the 28th ult. publish the detailed official report of the landing of the Ist corps d'armee at Ceuta, under General Echague, and of the first engagement which took place there; but it adds nothing to what is already known. The wound which that general received will, it appears, cause the loss of the first joint of the forefinger of the right hand. He had taken from Ceuta 500 convicts to be employed in constructing earthworks and performing the labo rious operations of the camp ; and the men were working with great readiness. A steamer, with 48 wounded (30 of them officers) and 110 sick, had arrived at Malaga. The Correspondancia announces that the con vention between Spain and the Holy See, relative to the sale of ecclesiastical property, was ratified at Rome on the 25th. SINGULAR HABIT OF THE TOAD.—The following account of a toad divesting itself of its skin in Wytham gardens, is from the gardener to the Earl of Abingdon, Mr. T. Mandor, who witnessed it. He says :—" I had observed it, in the hole in the garden wall, for several days , and made it a visit daily ; on ono of my visits I observed it in a very agitated state. I watched it for several minutes, until' it commenced stripping its skin from its body : it began at its hind legs, and proceeded by convulsive motions until it was stripped from its body, but not separated from its lips ; then it made one sudden pounce, and swallowed it in an instant."

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were moderately supplied with wheat, and the demand for most kinds ruled inactive, at about previous quotations. - Barley moved off slowly, on former terms ; and all other spring corn, as well as flour, met a slow inquiry, but without material change in prices. On the continent, the wheat trade has been very inactive, on rather easier terms. In the value of spring corn, how ever, very little change has taken place. The United States' markets come lower for both wheat and flour. The arrivals of English grain up to our market, last week, were only moderate. From abroad, we received 7060 quarters of wheat, 30,747 barley, 53,810 oal s, 282 rye, 2732 beans, 3036 peas, 3750 tares, 14,900 linseed, 4810 rapeseed, 10 sacks and 27 barrels of flour. The arrivals of wheat fresh up to-day from Essex and Kent, coastwise as well as by land carriage, were very moderate, and, owing to the damp state of the atmosphere, in but middling condition. The attendance of both town and country millers was rather limited, and the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce ruled inactive ; never theless, compared with Monday last, no change took place in the quotations. We were well supplied with most kinds of foreign wheat. For even the finest samples the inquiry was heavy, at about late rates. Inferior kinds were dull, at barely late rates. The demand for floating cargoes was extremely inactive. Owing to heavy arrivals from nearly all quarters, barley was a dull sale, at, in some instances, is per quarter less money. We were rather extensively supplied with oats. The demand for them was very inactive, and inferior samples gave way 6d per quarter. The few beans and peas in the market were disposed of at last week's currency. We have to report a slow sale for flour, at previous quo tations. bURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

The attendance of butchers was rather extensive, and the beef trade ruled steady at last Monday's currency, and at which a fair clearance was effected. The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, amounted to 2,200 short-horns and crosses ; and from other parts of England, 400 of various breeds; from Scotland, 200' Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, b5O oxen and heifers.

BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARTLIAGE.—CRISP V. SMOOTHY. ' This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a young woman aged 24, the daughter of a farmer residing near Lynn, against the defendant, a farmer and poulterer, at a place called Linton, in Cambridgeshire. The learned counsel for the plaintiff stated the case to the jury, and said an intimacy sprung up in May, 1859, and in September of the same year the defendant broke off all inti macy with the plaintiff, and refused to perform the promise of marriage he had given during the courtship. The learned gentleman then called the following evidence : Mr. Richard Houlton—l reside at Linton, in Cambridge shire, and I know the plaintiff, Miss Mary Crisp. I am a linendraper, and the plaintiff was in my employ. I know the defendant, Mr. Smoothy, he is a butcher, carry. ing on business in Linton. In the early part of March it began to be whispered about the town that the defendant had a kindly feeling towards her. I received a letter from Mr. Crisp. I afterwards saw Mr. Smoothy, and he thanked me that T had given him a good character, as I bad written to M. Crisp. He afterwards said he ought to have written to Mr. Crisp before. After this circumstance the defendant came to my house to tea. He came as a suitor to Miss Crisp. I saw them out together. They were going on quite right. (Laughter.) This state of things lasted about four months, and after this there appeared a little coolness. The plain tiff did not think so as it was the first time she had ever been in a similar situation. The plaintiff had no idea of the coolness, as she continued to make preparations for the marriage. ,He did not appear different until the morning before he withdrew his promise. The marriage was expected to take place in October, 1859, and the plaintiff left me on the Monday following the refasal. The plaintiff has been at Linton since the defendant refused to fulfil his promise. She is not at my house assisting in my business during my absence. She had no objection to return to Linton, as she said she had done nothing wrong . She is there now, but will leave on my return. Cross-examined—She was my assistant. She was a beginner, and used to reside in my house. The plaintiff was about 24, the defendant appeared 10 years older. lam aware that he is one of nine C hildren, and. 41).* bussinome he carried on was to an extent for their benefit. I don't know that he has £2B a-year for carrying on the business. There are 2,000 inhabitants in Linton, and besides the defen dant's there are two other butchers' shops. I think the de fendant farms about 100 acres of land. I can't be positive that it is as much. Re-szamined—The defendant's is the best butcher's shop in Linton. He is considered to be a man well to do, but I don't really know his position. Mr. Crisp, the father of the plaintiff, said—l wrote a letter to Mr. Smoothy in August, 1859, the substance of which was, that I had written to Mr. Holton, telling him 'I approved of the defendant's offer of marriage to my daughter. I wrote to her as follows : " Setcb, Aug. 23, 1859. I( My dear Daughter,—l received your letter of the 15th inst., and you wish aie to name the sum I can spare for your wedding outfit. You say you de not intend to go to Mr. Smoothy in debt, for which I much commend you ; and as your fortune in money will be but small, you must try and be as economical as you can, as you will always find industry and economy command the most permanent affection. " And now about the outfit. I shall be very short of money until Michaelmas. I will try to spare you £5 at Michaelmas. You must try to let Clara have part of it for the occasion. I cannot possibly send it bofore. . . . And now allow me to say just a few words. You may take it for granted that a man of sense will not look at outside trappings or appearance, but must again repeat that it is Internal culture, combined with industry, frugality, perseverance, economy, and forbearing temper that can command a lasting happiness to the marriage state. I shall be glad to receive a letter from you. With love to you and Clara,—l am, My dear daughter, your affectionate father, " WILLIAM CRISP." I received a letter from the defendant, in which he said he did not care about a marriage portion, as money did not make happiness. After my daughter returned to me she was in a very desponding state. r Cross-examined—My daughter is 24, and the defendant is about 30 or 32 years of age. I don't know that the defendant is one of nine children. I don't live at Linton. My daughter and:Mr. Smoothy never visited me. My re sidence was 60 miles from Linton. I had not seen him before the engagement was broken off. I have five other children besides the plaintiff. I never heard my daughter say she did not care whether the marriage came off or not. I am positive on the point. Miss Clara Crisp, sister of the plaintiff, said—l was at Linton last summer. My sister was there also. I now hold the situation my sister formerly held. I have seen my sister and Mr. Smoothy together. They behaved to each other as accepted lovers. By Sergeant Parry—l never heard my sister say she did not care whether the marriage came off or not. This was the case for the plaintiff, the promise of marriage not being disputed, the question was one simply of damages. Mr. Sergeant Parry addressed the jury for the defendant, and said it was much to be regretted that instead of the present suit being instituted an attempt had not been made to reconcile the two parties, as it appeared to him to be sim ply a lovers' quarrel. He however was not instructed to make any such proposition, and indeed had such been the case the pain the present proceedings had occasioned would, he thought, prevent anything of the kind now taking place. .The letter from the father which had beea received in court showed that the plaintiff had been most carefully brought up, and there could not be a person in court who did not admire his upright and straightforward conduct. The de fendant it was not pretended had addressed himself to any other female or offered marriage. The Lord Chief Justice—Do you contend the defendant offers to fulfil his promise ? Mr. Sergeant Parry said he had not such contention; but all he was instructed to urge in mitigation of damages was, that the :jury should weigh well the position of the defendant, being one of nine children, and give only such moderate damages as he could pay. _ _ The Lord Chief Justice said the present was a very dif ferent case from those usually presented to a jury, for it appeared that the defendant had lost a treasure, for accord ing to the careful manner in which her aunts had trained her a more valuable wife than the plaintiff had never fallen to the lot of man. It was truly unfortunate that no at tempt had boon made to reconcile the two ; ; but as the pre sent course had been adopted, the jury must award damages against the defendant for the non-fulfilment of his promise. After a few minutes deliberation the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages £5O. COURT OF DIVORCE. :Before Sir C. Cresswell, Mr. Baron Watson, Mr. Justice Hill, and a Special Jury.) ALLEN V. ALLEN AND D'ARCY. In this ease a suit was instituted by Mr. Allen against his wife for a divorce, by reason of her adultery with the co=respondent. Mrs. Allen had put in an answer contain ing a denial of the charge, and a recriminating plea that her husband had also committed adultery. She also charged him with cruelty, and alleged that the adultery on her part, if any, had been connived at and condoned by the petitioner. The jury, after a short absence, returned into court with the following verdict :—That Mrs. Allen had been guilty of adultery with Robert D' Arcy, or some other person ; that Thomas Allen had connived at the adultery, and that he had not condoned the offence. We find that Mrs. Allen had condoned the adultery of Thomas Allen with Mrs. Claverton. The Judge Ordinary dismissed the petition with costs. The resolution of the problem of tunnelling by machinery, so important to the future of mining, is being worked out, with continued success, in the boring of the Alps for the tunnel of the railwaf that is to connect France and Sardinia. The tunnel is between Modane in the Sardinian territories and Bardoneche in France, and is upwards ofeight miles long. From the enormous height of the mountain, no air-shaft was possible for this length, and con sequently the tunnel had to be carried out by drivings at each end only. Under the old system the want of air would have rendered this impossible, and even if it were possible it would have taken 40 years to complete. By the method adopted all diffi culties of ventilation are removed, and the work will be finished in six years from its commence ment. The holes in the end are bored by machinery, and charged and blasted by manual labour. Upon the latter part of the operation, therefore, there is no economy ; but the machine bores the holes in 1-12th the time that would be required by manual labour. But even this does not represent the entire econom of time, tor In an end Wher e only two men coul d work, and consequently only one hole be perforated at a time, by ordinary means, six effective holes can be simultaneously bored by the machine; thus 72 holes are bored in the time taken before to com plete one. Of course it is not to be expected that holes bored by a machine should be quite equal in effect to those pitched and bored by a skilful miner; but this is in some degree compensated by the simul taneous firing of several holes, for which this ma chine affords such facilities, and which is known to be so effective; besides, such minor considerations sink into insignificance compared with the power of boring 72 holes to 1. The time and labour required to charge the holes remain, as we have said, unaltered, as also those of removing the stuff. But allowing for these, it is estimated that altogether there is a saving of 5-6ths, or that the same amount of work can be done in 1-6th of the time. The power used for working the borers em ployed consists of condensed air, compressed to six atmospheres by water-power. The use of this motive-power is the great feature of the success of the operation, for, after working the boring machine the air escapes into the tunnel, and, expanding to its natural volume, not merely supplies the ne cessary air for ventilation, but creates a strong and continuous outward current, carrying away all the impurities of combustion and respiration. And this compressed air not merely affords a perfect ventilation ; it also keeps the atmosphere at a very low temperature, arising from the well-known principle that a large amount of heat is absorbed by any gas or fluid by expansion. So much is this the case in this tunnel, that when the air is first discharged from the machine its absolutely freezes any water with which it may come iu contact. 6 The average progress of the tunnel is about loft. per day on each side, through hard rock. The eco nomy is not great, if anything, as yet, for the entire affair being new and experimental had entailed many expenses. But when wo consider the enor mous economy of machinary over manual labour, wherever the former is possible, we cannot suppose that this will ultimately prove an exception to the rule, when the practical details and difficulties have been once worked out. The importance of the possible application of such a machine to mining purposes, even if. there be no economy in it, we need not point out to our readers. Time is often worth anything to the miner, for in his pursuit, alone among all others, money cannot expedite a piece of work beyond a point. Fancy driving a cross-cut through stiff ground at the rate of 50 fins. per month, or sinking a new perpendi cular engine-shaft at a proportionate rate. There are times when such results would be worth any money, and we really believe that, judging from the experience of the Alpine tunnel, there is nothing visionary in considering such a result possible in the future. We certainly are not inclined to think that driving levels or carrying on other works on the course of the lode can ever be effected by machi ner y, for the direction, &c., require to be so suddenly varied that the continued changes would more than destroy the saving of time. But in the case of cross cuts or perpendicular shafts, which have to be driven or sunk straight from point 4o point, we are confident that the present century will see the suc cessful application of mechanical contrivances. We should be glad to see some of the teeming in genuity of our mechanics applied to work out this point in a practical and sensible manner. It is one that will probably involve many difficulties, which can only be surmounted by continued perseverance, and no one must be disheartened by first failures. The primary problem of the motive-power seems to be solved, for compressed air has the great mining desideratum of affording a supply of pure and cool air—an arircle decidedly in request in our deep mines.—Mining Journal. LADY FRANKLlN.—Everybody must admit that Lady F l r s a y n ed k te l e i Nlp n ,ley is have ec t o ih n n l eg y a. r a d n Aa a nm shortai buta n be dtoi nite eo a fs i s hn t r o ec re n , g we n- when i bn n i l d hi e tey d r w wric a li n ladyship was waiting most auxiously to learn the fate of the brave men she had despatched in search of her husband, she fell ill, and a consultation of physicians was held at her residence. One of these gentlemen, whilst he felt her pulse, begged her ladyship would open her hand. Her frequent refusals occasioned him so much disappointment in ascer taining the precise state of her fever, that he took the liberty gently to expand the fingers, and he then perceived that they were grasping a small miniature of Sir John. " Madam," exclaimed the gentleman, with deep sympathy, "my prescription must be unavailing if you are determined to keep before your eyes an object which, although de servedly dear to you, serves only to confirm the violence of your distressing symptoms." " Sir," replied the noble woman, "this picture has been my sole comforter over since the departure of my husband, and I am determined it shall be inseparable until, if he be dead, I am so heppy as to drop after him intothe grave."—Court Circular.

COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL-JAUNCEY V. KNOWLES. This was an appeal from a decree of the Master of tie Rolls, declaring the partnership dissolved as on 3d July, 1859—that one-half of tho premium paid, £375, was etue to the plaintiff, and directed the usual partnership accounts to be taken. The plaintiff alleged that the defendant had misrepre sented the profits of his medical profession at 4800 a-year before he became a partner, and paid the premium. At the conclusion of the arguments of czounsel on both sides, the Lord Chancellor affirmed the &dere° of the Mas ter of the Rolls, and dismissed the apprJal with costs. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(TIIIS DAY.) . MAIMBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY AT THE CAFE DE L'OPERA.—CAUTION TO SHOPKEEPERS. —Thomas Stocker, alad age 17, was charged as follows :—Sergeant Henry Allen, 20 0, said that at a quarter past eight on Saturday evening, in Golden-square, he saw the prisoner carrying a large brass name-plate, about nine feet long, on his shoulder, wrapped in a counter pane. The prisoner was walking at the time very fast, and his (Sergeant Allen's) suspicioni being excited, he went after him and Ftopped him, and on asking what he had got on his should, he replied, "a plate," and that he was going to take it to Portland-place for alter.ation." He then told him he should take him to Vine-street, and he then said a man put it on his shoulder and told him to carry it for him, and on asking where he was to carry it to, he said, " wherever the man went to," but there was no one near at the time, nor in sight. He then seeing what was on the plate, "The Cafe de POpera," &c., went there, and found that it belonged to the prop , ietor, and had been removed from the front of the house under the Colionade, in Pall-mall. He had ascertained that it had screws to it, but no nuts were on at the time. Mr. George Epit ans, proprietor of the Caf4 de I'Opera, 3, Collonade, Pall -Mall, said the plate was his property, and of the value of £6. It had been taken from the front of hie house, and he had seen it safe in the course of the day. In answer to Mr. Beadon, the prosecutor said that the nuts were not, onthe screws, thus rendering it easy of re moval. The prisolier, who said he was guilty of the robbery, was then committed for trial. • As such robberies are rather frequent at this timo of year, the dark and foggy nights aiding the thieves in their ope rations, the above may perhaps prove a useful coution.
