The contention arises between the vendor and purchaser of the advowson of the rectory of Haseley, in the county of Warwick, for £2,800. The purchaser alleges that the vendor did not inform him before he made the purchase-that there was a mm tg,age charge of £GOO under the Queen An a's Bounty ' again:4 the rectory ; that the benefice was incutu bored to the extent of £350, and outgoings £lO a year, and, therefore,- the qauchuser was entitled to convent:Aden to that extent, as the vender did net disclose these ineumbrances. The vendor alleged forget fulness on his part and offered to rescind the bargain, but declined to give compensation.

The Right Hon. Sir JOHN PAKTNnTON, G.C.8., who pr es id e d, o b serve d t h at h e deemed it one of the high es t h onours to occupy I . hat position.

During the long war with France, a frigate was captured from the enemy which was considered as a model of shipbuilding ; and the idea of clipper ships came from the United States. Many important improvements had been carried out by British shipbuilders and engineers, but, notwithstanding, much remained to be done. In naval matters Russia, the United States, France, and England appeared to be starting upon one gnat rate of competition, and the object which this in stitution sought to accomplish was that England should win. Referring to the Royal Navy, Sir John observed that the Mersey and Orlando were wonderful l'rigates, and a great experiment would be carried out by the construction of those two enor mous iron-cased vessels which were projected by the late, and he was glad to say sanctioned by the pre sent Government. He deeply lamented/hat he could not on that occasion meet with Mr. Brunel, but when he saw Mr. Scott Russell present he could not but sinepeely hope that. _notwithstanding all adverse circumstances, that mighty work, the Cireat Eastern, would still prove the triumph of science. (Cheers.) Sir John concluded an excellent address by alluding to the advantages which must result from the for mation of the institution. IHE VOYAGE OF THE LADY. By the Authew of " TILE THREE PATHS." Hurst and Blackett, 13, Great Marlborough-street. This Company has been formed under the Limited Liability Act for the purpose of the purchase and enlargement of the Queen's Hotel at Upper Norwood. The celebrated and well-earned reputation of the manage ment of this Hotel, for many years, together with its admir able situation—remarkable alike for the beauty of the scenery and the- purity of the air—have rendered It the favourite resort of numerous and distinguished visitors. The immediate vicinity of the Crystal Palace has added to its attractions as a residence, while, at the same time, the bracing character of the Surrey hills, amongst which it is placed, strongly recommends it to those seeking it for the Purposes of health ; indeed, the character of the Hotel' is so *widely known that it is not necessary to enlarge further on Its advantages as a profitable investment. The Hotel was orignally projected, and has since been con ducted by the present proprietor ; but that gentleman's other avocations, together with the increasing business of the Hotel, and the necessity for its enlargement, have now induced him to relinquish the sole management of the undertaking ; he still retains, however, a large pecuniary interest as a share holder, and the board will have the advantage of his experi ence and assistance as a director. The property, comprising the hotel, which at present con tains 140 rooms, with extensive stables (sufficient for 80 horses),' ample carriage room, and pleasure and kitchen gardens, and every necessary accommodation, has been carefully surveyed, and its value ascertained by an experienced valuer ; and it has been secured to the Company on what the directors be lieve to be advantageous terms. - The capital of £50,000, after providing for the payment of .the purchase-money, will leave amply sufficient means for *effecting the improvements and extensions which are con templated (estimated at least at 50 additional rooms), and the -directors are confident that these extensions will very mate rially increase the profits—at present considerable. In conclusion, the directors draw attention to the important fact that the undertaking possesses this great advantage, that the shareholders will at once enter into possession of an esta blished business, yielding already a handsome return. . Two auditors will be appointed to audit the accounts, which will be accessible for the examination of the shareholders. Forms of application for shares may be had at the offices of the Company at the Queen's Hotel, Upper Nor-wood, and of the brokers of the Company, Messrs. Price and Brown, 4, Change-alley. A sum of £1 per share must be lodged at the bankers on appli cation for the shares, and £llos., making up the first instalment o€£2lol. per share, must be paid on allotment. The remainhig £7 10s. will be payable in three equal quarterly instalmentch—, Now Ready at all the Libraries, in 3 vols., MAN OF THE. PEOPLE. By WILLIAM HOWITT.

This morning was appointed for Mr. Robert Rosier, who bas been cited to this court at the instance of the Rev. Bryan king, the rector, to appear to answer the allegations in the articles which have been filed against him. It will be remembered that on Tuesday, the 21st inst., Dr. Phillimore, who attended on behalf of Mr. King, ten dered certain articles against Mr. Rosier, who appeared in person, charging hint that, during the Litany service in August last, when the Rev. W. P. Burn, the officiating minister, fell down in a fit, he shouted Out, " This is a judgment of God upon the Puseyites he is dead—down with Bryan King !" and that upon other occasions he was guilty of chiding, brawling, and behaving irreverently in church. The judge would not allow all those articles to be pled, and they underwent very considerable modifications: In their amended form Mr. Rosier was called upon to answer them on Tuesday last, the 28th ult., but owing to a mistake in the hour he did not make his appearance in court. A pereinctory order directing him to attend to-day was then served upon him, and ho put in his appearance accordingly. Dr. Twiss inquired if he was prepared, to put in his an swer to the allegations made against him ? Mr. Rosier said he had not received a copy of the amended articles and was not prepared with an answer. The Proctor, for Mr. King, reminded the learned judge that the articles were amended on the last court day, when Mr. Rosier was present. Dr. Twiss (to the registrar)—What would be the ordi nary course of procedure in such a case. Dr. Shepherd (the registrar)—said he could get a copy of the articles at the office, and by them amend his own. Mr. Rosier said he had been fully prepared to put in his plea to the whole of the articles as they were originally framed, and which were entirely untrue. • WYLD'S MAP OF THE WORLD, , on Mercator's projection, beautifully engraved, and containing the most recent geographical information, 4 sheets, '6 ft 3 in" by 4ft 2 in, £1 118 ; in case, .f. 2 2s ;on rollers, var nished, £33s.

Ezekiel Simons, a Russian Pole, said—About nine or ten months ago the prisoner came to me and said he was the chief of a society for sending away peoplo who could not afford to pay all the expenses of their passage, and asked me for 10s. It was through another person that he saw the prisoner. The prisoner, at his house, 19, New man -street, Princes street, said he could assist me, and asked if wanted to go to America—New York. I said " Yes." He said, "If you want to go you must pay me a deposit of 105.," which I gave 'him. He then said "As soon as the ship is ready I will come and tell you," and he took down our addresses. Ho said "You nted not get provisions, as you will have a card to get them on board." I left, and the prisoner called on me in six weeks, and asked if I was ready. and gave me to understand that I should have to pay £3 10s. more for myself and wife for the passage. I said I was not ready but would sell all my things and get the money. Ire said, " You'll have 10 days to sell them in," and I then said I would give him the rest of the money when I got on the vessel, but the prisoner never came again. Lastnight the prisoner said, " Whatever you charge for your loss I'll pay you." I should not have parted with my money but that I believed he was the chief of a society and I should be sent to America. My things realised £5.

PRACTICAL INSTRUCTION in GEOLOGY and MINE RALOGY is given by Mr. TENNAN T. at 149, Strand, W.C. (From the Morning Advertiser.) "Blessed is he," says Swift, "who expecteth nothing, for he shall not be disappointed." If there had been any high expectations regarding the Reform Bill, so often pro mised and so long delayed, of which Lord John Russell was known to be the parent—there would, most certainly, have been grievous disappointment in the public mind, when the provisions of the measure became known to the country. The fact, however, that nothing great or worthy of the people's acceptance was expected, will prevent any general or deep disappointment. We were among those whose expectations were the least enlarged, but assuredly, moderate as they were, they did exceed what the measure is now known to be. That the Bill will pass, there can no longer be a doubt. The Tories, for the sake of appearances, may offer a sort of opposition to some of its provisions, but in reality they must be .deligbted with it. Aiything so in adequate, anything so complete a mockery of real Reform, coming from them, would have been received with shouts of mingled indignation and derision. One simple fact will show how worthless and delusive the measure is. It will only add, according to Lord John Ruisell's own calculation, 194,000 new electors to the exist ing constituency. Now, what claim can this addition to the electoral body have to be regarded as a large and liberal extension of the franchise, in a country con taining a population of somewhere about 18,000,000 ? The present constituency, accerdinc , to Lord John Russell, amounts to 440,7 iO, and the addition now to be made to it will fall short of a third. If the existing constituency is confessedly altogether inade quate to ensure a faithful representation of the national opinions and wishes, so small an addition as this will ma nifestly leave matters much in the way in which this Re form Bill found them. To have b rou g ht in so poor a mea sure as this, is no better than gravely trifling with the country. It would have been far better not to have brought in any bill at all, than such au inadequate measure as that which Lord John Russell last night laid on the table of the house. It will satisfy no one except the Tories, or such of the Whigs as are in their liearts opposed to all reform. The country will feel that it has been deceived, and that feeling will lead to very unpleasant results. Instead of the measure quieting the demand for representative reform, it will only kindle It 3 slumbering embers into a flame. Nathan Abrahams said—About nine or ten months ago I went to 19, Princes-street, with another person, who is now in America. I asked if Napoleon was at home, and prisoner said he was Napoleon. The prisoner said he sent poor people to Ametica, and asked if I was a single man. I told him I had three children, and he said he wanted £7 of roe, and he would himself send sue. I said I could not pay £7, and he then reduced the amount to £5. Prisoner said he was master over a society, and asked at once for £l. I had 10s. with me, and he took that as a - deposit of the £5, and to insure me being sent. He said he would call and tell me when to go. A month after the prisoner called at my house, and told me to be ready in a few days for the voyage, and asked for some money. I said, when the vessel was to sail I had £1 to receive from a Jewish charitable fund, and that the money would be paid for me. The prisoner did not call again after that. I have been to his house frequently, but could not see him, and have not till last night at the police station. • Sergeant Rogers, who took the prisoner into custody, having deposed to that. fact, said, in answer to Mr. Lewis, that he knew Mr. Sands, who was formerly an in spector of police, and was employed to send refugees from this country by the French and English Governments ; but they were not persons in distress, but political refugees, not Russians and Poles only, but French, Italians, and ethers. Mr. Lewis having cross-examined the witnesses, the pri soner was remanded for a week, bail being taken for his re- appearance. FIRE AND Loss OF LlFE.—Yesterday morning, about six, a fire broke out in the private residence of Mr.W. Featherstone, No. 5, Pleasant-place, Bankside, Southwark, and, we regret to say was attended with fatal consequences. In a very short time from the discovery of the fire the escape attended,followed by the brigade engines from South wark - bridge-road ,Tooley- street, and Waterloo-road stations. By then the whole of the top part of the house was en veloped in flatues, and unfortunately Mr. Featherstone was in the midst of the fire which was raging so fiercely that no one was able to enter the place. The neighbours and fire men eventually succeeded in getting the flames extinguished but not until the top portion of the house was burned out and the remainder considerably damaged. Upon the fire men entering the ruins as soon as the flames were extin tinguished, they found the unfurtutate man burned over the whole of his body in a frightful manner and quite dead. The deceased was 60 years of age. There is no doubt but the poor fellow was burnt to death before the escape was called, or even the existence of the fire became known. THAMES. ROGUES IN A BAKEROUsE.—John Smith, aged 18, and Henry Cole, 39, journeyman bakers, in the employ of Mr. Henry Brown, of No. 126, Royal Mint-street, alias Ruse - ary-lane, and Benjamin Barnes, a grocer and general dealer, of 93, in the same street, were brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a large quantity of bread, the property of Mr. Brown. It appeared froni the evidence that yesterday morning at the early hour of six o'clock, a police constable of the C di vision, named Hugh Andrews, saw Cole and Smith leave their master's bakehouse, in which they were employed, with a basket cf bread, which they conveyed to the shop of the receiver, Barnes. Andrews thought the transaction a very strange one, but did not take either of the parties into custody, because he thought it was possible that Barnes, who is a bread seller, might be one of the prosecutor's customers. In the course of the day, however, Andrews communicated what he had seen to Mr. Brown, aid in consequence of what he said he was again on the watch this:morning, and between the hours of six and seven o'clock saw the prisoners, Cole and Smith, again leave their master's bake-house with a basket, which they conveyed, as before, to the shop of the prisoner Barnes who was in waiting to receive the plunder. Barnes took from the basket 18 half-quarters loaves, which he arranged upon shelves in his shop. There was a batch of bread in Mr. Brown's oven which would have been spoiled if the journey man bakers had been immediately apprehended, and they were allowed to finish their work and draw the batch from the oven.

The deceased, who was the architect of his own fortune, was of humble extrac tion, and entered the bank in which he afterwards became a partner, as a junior clerk. He retie ed from the firm about five or six years since, having amassed a princely fortune. We hear, on pretty good authority, that Mr. Palmer has left behind him property to the value of upwards of £200,000, more than £170,000 of which are invested in Consols. About £25,000 have been bequeathed by him to various charities in Bristol, and about a like amount to personal friends, among whom the names of Lady Haberfield, Mr. Isaac Niblett, and others are mentioned. The executors and residuary legatees are H. A.

Hurst and Blackett's " Standard Library " is enriched this m mth with a new and revised edition of " A Life fbr a Life," by the author of "John Halifax, Gentleman." The volume, eegantly printed, bound, and illustrated, and at the small price of 55., will, doubtless, be among the most popular of this excellent series. "A Life for a Life" is certainly one of the best works of its distinguished author, and the present s lition is rendered peculiarly interesting, from flue fact of its containing a new preface, in which, among other topics, the writer explains the important alterations she has made in the story. THE ARMY. Yesterday afternoon the foundation stone of the handsome memorial which is to be erected to the memory of those officers and men of the Royal Engineers who full in the Crimea during the Rus sian campaign, was laid at Chatham by the Duke of Cambridge. The memorial, the erection of which • has been for some time in contemplation, will be. built at the eastern end of the parade ground Brornpton Barracks—a site which perhaps i one • of the best that could have been selected, as it will form an appropriate termination to one of the finest of our barrack parade-grounds. It will • be built from designs furnished by Mr. Digbv Wyatt, and will consist of a lofty central arch 22 feet in height, with two side arches, each about 13 feet in height, and of appropriate width. The entire structure will be upwards of 30 feet in height, 44 feet in width, and 10 feet in depth or thickness. It will be elaborately ornamented,and will be faced with marble, on which will be inscribed the name . of every officer, non-commissioned officer, and pri vate of the Royal Engineers who fell in the Crimea. On the architrave will be engraved the motto of the Royal Engineers—" Quo firs et °feria ducunt." 'The cost of the structure will be at least £7,000, exclusive of the iron work, which will be formed from the guns taken from the Russians, and given by the Government. The whole cost will be de frayed by the subscriptions of the officers and men. The builders ,are Messrs. Mansfield and Sons, of Gray's-i.iiiTioaa. Hie rtsyat IlighnpNe arrived at the Strood station shortly before 12 o'clock, attended by his aide-de aainp, anti was received by a guard of honour, selected from the Royal Marines and the East India regiments, the guard being composed of none but men who had served in the Crimea and were decorated with the Crimean medal. Major A. A. Douglas, Royal Marines, commanded the guard, the colours of the Royal Marines being held by Lieut. Thomas. The Duke proceeded at once to the garrison, and on arriving at the drawbridge the guns from the Cornwallis battery fired a royal salute. The whole of the troops of the garrison, to the number of about 6,000 men of all ranks, were drawn up on the parade-ground of Chatham Bar racks, under the command of Colonel Jervis, to await the arrival of the Duke of Cambridge, and his Royal highness having spent a short time in inspecting the men, proceeded to perform the cere mony of the day. In order to give effect to the proceedings, very extensive preparations had been made ; every inch of the lofty scaffolding used in the building of the memorial was covered with flags, while from four lofty poles were displayed the colours of England, France, Sardinia, and Turkey, the nations which fought together in the Crimea. Above the scaffold was placed the word " Crimea" in branches of laurel. On each side of the stone were galleries for the accommodation of ladies, the general public, among whom the gay uniforms of nearly 200 efficez s were conspicuous, being admitted in the space round the stone. The approaches were lined on each side by the troops of the Royal and Indian Engineers. On his Royal Highness reaching the barracks he was received with a general salute, the band playing the National Anthem, Among the distinguished officers who ac companied his Royal Highness were General Sir J. F. Burgoyne, G.C.8., Inspector-General of Fortifi cations ; wen. Sir C. W. Pasley, K.C.8.; Gen, Sir Henry Jones ; Gen. Oldfield, K.H.; Gen. Il,Eyre, Col. Sandham, Col. Gordon, C.B. ; Stotherd, Col. Walpole, Col. Stanton, C.B. ; Col. Westmacott, &c. The ceremony commenced by the Rev. Mr. Green, senior chaplain of the garrison, offering up an appropriate prayer ; after which Mr. 1). Wyatt presented his Royal Highness with a photographic view of the proposed memorial, together with the plans, which the Duke of Cambridgespent some time in inspecting. A silver trowel was then handed to his Royal Highness, with which he spread the mor tar, after which the stone, which was decorated with laurel, was lowered to its place, the RoyalEngineers' band playing " Sleepers, awake !" from Men delssohn's " St. Paul." After the stone had been lowered his Royal Highness examined it with the square, and then struck it with the mallet, after which lie said " I declare this stone to be well and duly laid," a fact which was immediately announced by a second salute of 21 guns fired by the Royal En gineer Train. His Royal Highness afterwards in spected the corps of the Royal Engineers, the troops marching past in slow and quick time, and execut ing a few other manoeuvres. The Duke of Cam bridge, before leaving the garrison, artook of luncheon in the mess-room of the R o y a l Engineers, to which about 100 distinguished officers had been invited ; on his Royal Highness leaving the gar rison the guns from the battery fired a second ea lute. The officers of the Royal Engineers gave a grand banquet in their mess-room last night, i n honour of the occasiox, the band of the Engineers performing during the dinner. Notwithstanding the reduction of the Queen's bounty from /5 to £4, to recruits engaging with the Royal Marines, the augmentation of the corps is proceeding briskly. Captain Wood and Captain Casey, of the Woolwich division of Light Infantry, on reserved half-pay, have been ordered on recruit ing service. The former has left Woolwich for Derby, and the latter is about to leave for Newark. Officers belonging to the Woolwich division on leave have received instructions to return to their duties at head quarters on the 19th inst. as the usual course of field drills, for the summer season, will commence on the following day, the 20th. ACCIDRN7' ON TILE EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. Yesterday morning Mr. Humphreys resumed, at the Lecture-hall, Tottenham, the inquiry into the circumstances attending the deaths of Edward S'okes, Timothy Satchel], William Rowell, and Philip Cornwall, who died from the effects of the accident which occurred on the above lino on the morning of the 20th ult. It will be recollected that amongst the wounded persons was a gentleman named Beane, 70 years of age, a miller of Powndon. He sustained very seri injuries, both legs and both thighs being broken. He was conveyed to the White Hart Inn, where hi remained in a very precarious condition till Wed nesday evening, when he expired about 6 o'clock. The inquiry yesterday had reference to the death of Mr. Beane, as well as the other deceased persons. The company were represented by Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, instructed by Messrs. Crowder, May nard, and Co., solicitors. A number of witnesses were examined, including Mr. Sinclair, the locomotive engineer. That gentle man gave it as his opinion,after a careful examina tion of the pieces of the tire of the engine wheel, that the breaking of it was caused by an imperfec tion in the welding—that defect being probably caused by a little dirt getting in. It would be im possible to discover it externally, It was quite clear that the driver had discovered the accident, and was taking every means to stop the train. The inquiry was further adjourned. Captain Tyler, the Government Inspector of Railways, was present during the day to watch the proceedings on behalf of the Board of Trade. Since the last inquiry the names of several other persons injured by the accident have transpired. The most serious case is that of Mr. Haylock, a farmer of Haggerstone. lie lies at the Green Dragon, Bishopsgate-street. Both legs were broken, and he had sustained other serious injuries. One of his legs was amputated yesterday, and last even ing he was in a very dangerous condition. The other injured parties are progressing as favourably as the serious nature of their Injuries will permit.

Bruce hoisted his flag (white at the fore) as Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, on board the Excellent, at noon yesterday, under the customary salutes from that ship and the Vic tory. Admiral W. Bowles, C. 8., hauled down his flag from the main of the Victory at sunset yester day. This morning Viee.Admiral Bruce removes his flag to the Victory, the flagship of the Comman der-in-Chief at the port. It is expected that Lieut. Francis G.

Robinson receive the usual step of rank on the hauling down of an Admiral's flag. A letter dated Torbay, Tuesday, received at Ply mouth, from one of the officers of the Channel squadron, says that off the Lizard the ships were taken all aback, and could not again form a line. The Edgar, Queen, and Donegal remained out. Be sides the casualties to the Queen, Diadem, Algiers, and Mersey, already reported in lhe Sun, the let ter states that the Aboukir lost her cross-jack yard and starboard quarter-boats, the Royal Albert pitched her jib-boom under at times, and the Trafal gar lost her jib-Loom ; she will probably call at Ply mouth before proceeding to the Tagus. Her Majesty's gunboat Torch, launched from the builder's yard ou Tuesday, arrived at Woolwich yesterday, and was towed down to Chatham yard to be fitted for service. Her Majesty's Royal paddle-yacht has been paid off at Portsmouth, and recommissioned again on Tuesday. Yesterday the commissioned officers on board received their commissions from the Admi ralty, through the hands of Capt. Hon. J. Daimon. The official trial of the Bacchante, 51, screw, at Portsmouth, is expected to take place on the 6th instant. An accident occurred yesterday morning on board the Ariadne, 26, screw steamer, at Spithead, which, by an extraordinary piece of good fortune, was unattended by any serious consequences. At the usual hour in the morning the topgallantmasts were being sent up, and the operation was nearly com pleted, when the mast-rope of the rnaintopgallant mast broke, and the spar came down with terrific force from its lofty position, and, breaking its way through the upper deck, struck one of the 10-inch maindeck guns on the breech, which checked its further progress. The breech was slightly elevated, and rested on the end of a handspike for the pur pose of cleaning, and so great was the force of the blow ori the gun that the end of the handspike was broken short off. This was all the damage done, none of the hands on deck being touched by the spar in its descent. The Hero, 91, screw, Capt. George 11. Seymour, is expected to sail from Spithead this morning for Lisbon. The crew of the screw steamship Sanspareil, Capt. Wilmot, C. 8., in Plymouth Sound, were mustered and inspected on Wednesday by Capt. Jerningliam, of the gunnery ship Cambridge, pre paratory to her departure for Queenstown. She will call at Pembroke. The screw steamship Conqueror, 101, at Ply mouth, received her powder on Wednesday ; her crew were to be paid yesterday. The hired transport Nuggett has arrived at Woolwich for the embarkation of troops for New Zealand. The War Department have chartered the North fleet, the Speedwell, and Fontanelle, to ship mili stores from Woolwich arsenal. _ The steam storeship Rhadamanthus, F. R. Stur dee master, sailed from Plymouth for Pembroke on Wednesday. The military store screw transport Lord Pan inure, Mr. H. T. Moore master commanding, which vessel sailed from Devonport on Sunday, arrived . at Woolwich on Wednesday, having dischared 700 empty powder barrels at Purfleet. Her cargo con sists of 70 ship's guns, over-vented, 30 tons of re turned shells, 700 chests of the obsolete muskets (for the Tower), which have been replaced by rifles, now in general use in the army, aiid sundry cases of returned stores. The Lord Panmure reports • having experienced a most fearful gale in the Chan nel, carrying away her foregaff, headboard, sails, &c. On coming to anchor in the Downs the chief officer was severely disabled by a fall. From the violence of th gale communication was cut off from the shore, and no medical assistance was procurab. until the ship's arrival at Woolwich. The Indiana screw steamer, hired transport, em• barked yesterday at Portsmouth for Corfu a de. tachment of the ffrst battalion 9th Foot, 11 officers, 3 officers' wives, 4 officers' children, 2 female ser vants, 314 rank and file, 20 soldiers' wives, 35 sol diers' children, and 1 horse; for Gibraltar, a detach ment of Royal Artillery, 51 non-commissioned officers and men.
