LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices,) JUDGMENT-APPEAL-WILSON V. KEATING. The further hearing of this part-heard appeal was resumed this morning. Mr. Selwyn', Q.C., was heard for the appellant, This is an appeal from a decision of the Master of the Rolls decreeing specific performance of an agreement to take 525 shares in the Newcastle Bank at £5 per share. It appears there were two agreements to take shares to double that extent, one payable in 1855, and another in 1856. The appellant repudiated the agreements on the ground of fraud and misrepresentation, and that the decree com plained of was not asked by the plaintiff's bill. Mr. Stevens followed on the same side. The Lord Chancellor was of opinion that the decree of the Master of the Rolls should be affirmed. His lordship considered that the appellant was perfectly cognisant of the original agreement of sth October, 1856, and that he knew perfectly well what the arrangement was that Sadleir entered into for the transference of these shares to him, and that money was not paid, and he undertook to pay them. It appeared to his lordship that the defence set up, that he held the transference of these merely as a trustee for Sadleir, entirely failed. Lord Justice Knight Bruce and Lord Justice Turner concurred. The Lord Chancellor affirmed the decree of the Master of the Rolls, and dismissed the appeal with costs. IN RE THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK (EX PARTE MIXEN).- APPEAL MOTION. This is an appeal motion by the official manager, on two summonses, calling on the defendants to show cause why they should not be put on the list of shareholders on the first, second, and third issues of the Bank for £lOO,OOO, £200,000, and £300,000 shares, and pay accordingly. The winding-up is before Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard K indersley and his chief clerk. Mr. Giffard, Q.C., has been heard for the official manager. Mr. Field followed on the same side. The arguments are proceeding, POLICE INTELLIGENCE. -(I HIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. FLAGRANT CASE OF CRUELTY.—PROPER PUNISH MENT.—Mr. William Love, the chief constable of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, attended to prefer a charge of gross cruelty against William Henry Millar, driver and owner of the cab, 536, residing in Queens-road, Notting-hill. Mr. Love stated that on morning of the Bth inst., whilst in Oxford-street, the defendant passed him driving a mare and cab, and he observed that the animal was in a very miserable condition, and could scarcely draw the cab. He removed the harness and found several suppurating wounds upon its back, sides, and shoulders, all of which the har ness was pressing into, the animal's flanks presenting a shocking appearance, being covered with large wheals, its teats being completely raw, the flesh having been literally jagged out with the whip, and clotted blood adhering to the wounds; the punishment having evidently been in flicted with a short handled thick thonged whip, having what is termed a " blood knot" on the end of the thong, and as he had another whip he (Mr. Love) had no doubt it was used for the purpose of inflicting the torture. The case was one of the worst he had ever under his notice. The defendant admitted the flanks of the horse were in a bad condition, but said he had worked the mare but little since it was complained of by Mr. Love. Mr. Beadon indignantly denounced the defendant's con duct as being cruel and monstrous, observing that it was a flagrant case, and fined the defendant £3 and costs, or one month's hard labour in the House of Correction. The defendant was locked up in default. THAMES. SUICIDE OF JOHN BARDOE, THE LIBERATED SLAVE,— This morning was appointed for the re •examination of Oude Ajur, the liberated African slave, better known as John Bardoe, for wounding four Asiatic seamen in the Strangers' Home, West India-road, Limehouse, to which place he was removed after his trial, and acquitted on a charge of assault ing and wounding a city police-constable named Oliver on the roof of a house in the Minories. The witnesses, interpreters, and others were in attendance on the magistrate. The Court was filled -with persons anxious to hear the proceedings. At 12 o'clock the police van arrived with the prisoners under remand, but without Bardoe, and soon afterwards Sergeant Walker, who has charge of the van, announced that the un fortunate creature had put an end to his existence by hanging himself in his cell in the Clerkenwell House of Detention. This morning, at two o'clock, the night watch man in the prison while going his rounds called to the prisoner, and he answered him. Two hours afterwards the same watchman again called to him, and no answer being returned he opened the door of the cell and found the un fortunate man quite dead. The manner in which the deceased hung himself did not transpire, but it is believed he strangled himself with his handkerchief. There is no doubt that his misfortune's, his fear of being sent into slavery again, and the severe wounds he received in the terrible conflict with the city police constable, preyed upon his mind and caused him to commit suicide. At half-past 12 o'clock Lieut.-Colonel H. Marsh Hughes, the Secretary of the Sailors' Home, addressed the magis trate, and said the black man, Bardoe, was dead. He had committed suicide. Mr. Yardley—Has he indeed. When did that occur ? Lieutenant-Colonel Hughes—This morning . , sir, he tore his sheet to pieces and hung himself. Sergeant Mather, of the police van, here said that the Governor of the Clerkenwell House of Detention informed him the poor fellow had strangled himself at an early hour this morning. Mr. Yardley said this - was a most lamentable end to a most lamentable 'affair. No one in this country was to blame but the person who brought the deceased, and made a slave of him; and who intended to treat him as a slave again, was very much to blame. Lieutenant-Colonel Hughes —It was a most disgraceful transaction on the part of the foreigners. Can there be any objection to my seeing the body of the deceased ? I under stand there are some very remarkable marks on his person which I am most anxious to see. Mr. Yardley said that, from the kind manner in which Lieutenant-Colonel Hughes behaved to the deceased, and the great interest he had taken, and the humanity he had evinced towards all destitute and friendless men of colour who arrived in this country, there was no doubt his wishes would be consulted by the authorities. He could see no objection whatever to Lieut.-Colonel Hughes seeing the body. The case, however, was out of his hands. The man was dead, and the coroner and a jury would hold an inquiry. He inquired how the wounded men were pro gressing. Mr. Corner, a respectable surgeon, of Poplar, said he had been in attendance on the wounded men daily, and they were all doing well. Two were nearly recovered. The other two were invalids at the time they were wounded, and their recovery would, consequently, be slower. Lieut.-Colonel Hughes—ls there any occasion for the wounded men to attend here ? Mr. Yardley—None at all. As far as I am concerned there is an end of the matter. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.

THE ALLEGED MURDER AT NEW CALABAR.— John M'lntyre, the sailor who was brought up on Thurs day at the Liverpool police court, charged with the murder of a fellow-seaman named John Maxwell, was again brought before Mr. Mansfield yesterday. It appeared from the evi dence that there had been a quarrel between M'lntyre and Maxwell, and that Maxwell in the first instance had been the aggressor, and had knocked the prisoner once or twice down on the deck. M'lntyre, in order to escape the violence of the deceased, ran below ; the deceased followed ; and it was when Maxwell was endeavouring still further to punish the prisoner that the latter drew a knife and stabbed the de ceased three times in the breast. He died almost imme diately. For the defence it was argued that the prisoner only used the knife in self. defence ; and as for the charge of murder, it could not be sustained. The prisoner was com mitted on a charge of manslaughter, a n d th e mag i s t ra t e ob served that, though do iubttfl-acwhheitshdeirit a y iury to send the ontheecviaseet thef prisoner for trial, it was v dc , th e evidence adduced. • SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

DEATH OF A CHILD FROM INTOXICATION.--An inquest was held at Cheddar last week on the body of Frank Wall, aged nine years. Deceased, who was employed in a hay-field, had been sent for a gallon of c id er , an d was absent for three hours. On his return it, appeared that nearly three quarts of the cider had been drunk by the de ceased. He was in a fearful state of intoxication. He was allowed to remain in the field till nearly 10 o'clock at night, when one of the witnesses, a labouring man, took him home. He died a few hours afterwards from apoplexy, arising from immersion in cold water, while under the in fluence of liquor.—Sherborne Journal. A MODEL MOTHER.—At the Salford Town Hall, on Tuesday, a woman named Eliza Ann Seddon, was charged with having neglected her infant child. A police officer stated that about three o'clock on Monday afternoon, he was called into a cellar in Dale-street, when he saw the child, about two years old, lying quite naked on a dirty ma' tress in a very filthy state, and looking extremely thin and much neglected. He went in search of the mother, and found her half tipsy in Clowes-street Ellen M‘Dermott said she was attracted to the prisoner's cellar by some chil dren, who told her that a child was lying there naked and in want. On entering it she found the child described by the last witness. While she si'as in the cellar the prisoner came in and knocked her down. She had seen the pri soner take up the child by the leg and exclaim " Die, you if it was not for you I could be married." The child was produced •in court, and it appeared much emaciated. The prisoner was cotamitted to pram for three months. THE NAVY. The screw steamship Revenge, 9:1, was towed on Wednesday from Keyham basin to the Devonport dockyard, to expedite her fitting. .

While the corporal punishment was being inflicted on hoard the Csar, in Keyham-dock, on Thursday morning at seven o'clock, several artisans and labrairers then entering were attracted alongside by the cries of the prisoner, and expressed dis approbation by hisses and groans, in which they were joined by the Turkish sailors assembled on the deck of their own ship, which lies near. On this the Marines of the Caesar were sent on shore, and were drawn up in a line to disperse the people, when Burney, act ing leading man of shipwrights, and an apprentice was seized and reported.

Commissioned chaplains and officiating Clergymen are, therefore, not to exact fees for the performance of any of these duties. " B. HAITES." RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. GREAT WESTERN AND BRENTFORD. Yesterday the ceremony of opening this com pany's docks and railway was performed with great rejoicing at Brentford. Special steamers from Lon don and Westminster bridges, decorated with flags, and conveying the friends of the undertaking, opened the new docks at about 20 minutes to four. About the same time special trains started from the Southall station of the Great Western Rail ' way to B ren tf or d, convey i ng t h e d i rectors and their friends. The event was celebrated at the Town hall, Brentford, by an excellent dinner, at which Mr. Davey, the deputy chairman, presided. Various loyal and other toasty; were given and responded to, and the whole of th e procee di ngs were conducted in a satisfactory manner. It is fully e x p ecte d that this short branch of 41 milesin length, from the Southall station of the Great Western Railway to the docks at Brentford, will be of great advantage to both companies. Hitherto all the heavy traffic upon the Great We stern Railway .destined for th e port o f L ondon has left the main line at Bull's-bridge, whence it has been taken down the Grand Junction Canal to Brentford. For a long time past the means of transit thus afforded have proved quite inadequate for the greatly increased traffic which the opening up of the Welsh coalfields and th e connecti on o f the Great Western line with Birmingham, Wolver hampton, Birkenhead, Manchester, and other places have brought upon it. Between Bull's -bridge and Brentford there are upon the canal no 'fewer than eleven locks, and the delay which these occasioned was enhanced in winter by frosts and in summer by droughts. The tonnage dues also were heavy, and all these circumstances affected very prejudiciatly the goods and mineral traffic upon the t run k li ne . Th ese consi d er ations led to the construction ot the new railway and dock, which were yesterday opened for publig traffic. Starting from a junction with the main line at Southall, whi c h i s a b out a m il e an d a h a lf on th i s side of Bull's-bridge, the new line proceeds in a south-easterly direction through a highly-cultivated market gard en di str i ct to the dock at Brentford, a distance of 4 4 miles. At p resen t on l y a s i ng l e li ne is laid,because, in th e fi rst i nstance, goods tra ffi c alone will be conveyed upon it, but the whole length is ballasted for a doubl e li ne, and platforms and stations are being construoted at the town of Brent ford and at the dock for the accommodation of pas sengers, which will be opened in about a fortnight. A considerable revenue is anticipated from this source, because the dock being exactly opposite one of the entrances to Kew Gardens, whe re a ferry has long existed, passengers may, by th is ro ute, be The of Paddington t he line has to presented Kew n 35 few i minutes.engi neering difficulties; but at Windmill-bridge t was necessary to carry the railway under both the high way and the Grand Junction Canal. There are thus at this point three distinct modes of transit cross ing each other, a ll a t diff eren t ang l es , b u t hav ing a common centre. On the top is the road, below is the canal, and underneath is the railway ; the total height from the rails to the road does not exceed 34 feet. To execute this work the canal had to be diverted, while a cast-iron trough, 8 feet in depth, was formed for the purpose of carrying the canal over the railw a y. Th e tow i ng -path consists of cast iron roadway plates, bracketed out from the side of the trough, and the whole structure is borne upon strong abutments of brick, supported in the middle by a centre pier. One hundred and forty tons of cast-iron were used in this work, and the cost of its construction was about £5,000. At a little more than three miles from the junction the railway crosses over the loop line of the South-Western. A viaduct, 240 yards in length, carries it through the town of Brentford, where it crosses the London road by a wrought-iron bridge of 50 feet span, and the Grand Junction Canal by a similar bridge of 70 feet span. From the end of the viaduct a double line is laid into the dock, just before reach ing which the canal is again traversed by a bridge of 90 feet span. The dock itself is a work of considerable impor tance, and the facilities which it is intended to afford the Great Western for the conveyance of heavy traffic to and from the Pool are expected to be very great. The dock encloses four and a half acres of water, having a depth of 13 or 14 feet at high water, and an ample depth to float barges at low water. Here every convenience, such as covered sheds, cranes, shipping, staiths, and so forth, are provided, so that the shipment of goods and minerals may take place with the utmost ra pidity. It is calculated that the journey from the dock to the Pool will be accomplished in one tide. Every attention has been paid to insure the solidity of the works. The dock is said to be perfectly watertight throughout the whole area, and so well provided with rails for the goods' accommodation that upwards of two miles of line are laid on this part of the undertaking. The space and ap pliances were estimated to admit of traffic to the extent of 500,000 tons annually, an amount which the dock has been specially designed to accom modate. A telegraph from the dock to the Pool of London completes the arrangements of this un dertakihg. The Great Western Company under take the working of the line, and guarantee to carry at least 100,000 tons of goods and minerals over it annually, exclusive of coal, coke, and stone. The present traffic at Bull's-bridge, how ever, and contracts already entered into warrant the expectation that double the specified amount of traffic will pass over the line. It appears that the actual cost of these works, as executed by Messrs. Treadwell, the contractors, under the superinten dence of Mr. E. F. Murray, the resident-engineer, has been only £130,000; and the total cost from first to last, including pi eliminary, law, and Par liamentary expenses, and the purchase of land, has not exceeded £200,000. ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE IN LEEDS. On Thursday afternoon, a little before three o'clock, Mrs. Watts, a widow, aged 75, and who re sided at 4, Westminster-place, Castle-street, West End, Leeds, rushed to the door of a neighbour named Miss Tutin, with a towel wrapped round her throat, and told her that her throat ha& just been cut by one of her lodgers, named Abraham Fawcett. As she remov e d th e towel the blood spurted out like water from the spout of a kettle. Miss Tutin gave the alarm, and the poor old woman was shortly afterm ards attended to by Mr. Nunneley, surgeon, who sewed up the wound. Mrs. Watts was next asked where Fawcett was, and she replied that he was cutting his throat just as she rushed out of the house. The neighbourhood being alarmed, Mrs. Watts's house was examined, and sure enough Faw cett was found on the floor of Mrs. Watts's bed room bathed in blood. The room had the appearance of a slaughter-house. From the fragmentary narra tive other residents in the house, it would appear tha t asa furnished at intervals by Mrs. Watts and the Fawcett, a young man of 35, was employed i Watts n for 12 hall-lane. He has lodged with Mrs. cloth dresser as Mr. King's establishment cherish yea , years, and was generally supposed to • of a ohild.

On Thursday night, when our correspondent was at the house, which is one of a row of cottages in the centre of a densely populated district, hundreds of people were congre gated about, the greatest excitement prevailing. He found Mrs. Watts in a very dangerous condi tion, the wound having been re-opened by a fit of coughing, and the bleeding having continued for half an hour before medical assistance could again be procured. The incision is a deep and long wound. Fawcett has also inflicted a desperate gash on his Own throat, and he has been asleep—probably from the stupefying effects of the liquor—almost ever since the occurrence.

At the Westminster Police Court yesterday Christo Buonocore, the " Fire King" at Cremorne Gardens, was re-examined on the charge of attempt ing to poison Franc's Fillipone, described as the " Emperor of Fire." m. G. Guohni was engaged as interpreter, both prosecutor and prisoner being Italians, unable to speak English. Mr. Wontner defended the pri soner. The prosecutor stated that he and the prisoner had been for some time acquainted, and an arrangement had been entered into between them to perform in public. On Wednesday week prosecutor called at prisoner's house and had some strawberries and rum. Prisoner appeared anxious to get prosecutor out of the room on an errand, and subsequently induced him to go for some more fruit. On his return he partook slightly of more of the strawberries and rum, which he thought looked much altered in their colour. He afterwards went upon the water, when be was attacked with great pain at his heart and sickness, while his head felt as though it was being struck with hammers. He suspected that the strawberries and rum had been drugged, and, returning to prisoner's lodgings, found that what had been left of the mixture had been thrown into a vessel as unfit for use. On the following Sunday Darbani Rabini, another Italian, connected with the Marionette Theatre, told prosecutor that pri soner purposed his death, and showed him four bottles of poison which the accused had given him (witness) to accomplish it with. In cross-examination prosecutor denied that he was prisoner's servant, but alleged that he was his partner ; in confirmation of which he produced an agreement between them, which left it to be in ferred that prosecutor was being initiated by pri soner into the mysteries of " fire-proofing,' and was to allow a certain sum out of his professional engagements. Dabarde Rabini said he received the four bottles produced from prisoner 17 or 18 days ago to take care of. On Wednesday week he asked him for one of them, and restored it the next day. On the following Saturday evening prisoner came to wit ness, and complained that somebody had sent a letter about him to the French Government, through which he had been forbidden to enter France, and that prosecutor had much calumniated him. He added that there were some people better taken away from the face of the earth •, said that he i t t , ns took the bottles and affected et l alluded to prosecutor, and then gave him directions to use the bottles, by putting poison in his beer or food. Prisoner concluded his instructions , by telling him consent, that when he had " executed that c ommission " he would trust him with another setcoretc. order that he might save the prosecutor's life. He gave them to Mr. Sim pson, the proprietor of Cremorne, who immediately called the attention of the police to th e circum stance."thing On • ondayweek This prisoner said, must M be accomplished this week; this man must be ended this wee k . Mr. F. Godrich, of Sydney-place, Onslow-square, proved that he had examined the contents of the four bottles, and found three of them contained prussic acid, and the fourth strychnine. The prussic acid in one of the bottles was thirty times as strong as that ordinarily sold. Mr. Arnold inquired whether the prussic acid out of one of the bottles which had been partially used, and which was of indifferent strength, given not in so small a quantit y as to cause death, would create feelings of sickness, stupor, and pains in the heart and. head. Witness said it would. Mr. Wontner urged that prisoner bad imparted the greater part of his secrets to prosecutor and the Italian witness, who were concocting the charge to get rid of him, and an arrangement to pay part of his earnings to his teacher. Mr. Arnold remanded the accused till Tuesday, and refused to take
