THE NA VY. The difficult operation of cutting in two a large 50-gun frigate and half launching the portion of the vessel cut away was performed in a very suc cessful manner at Chatham dockyard on Saturday, the frigate thus operated upon being the Arethusa, two-decker, in No. 2 dock, which is about being converted into a screw steamer. The Arethusa is one of the old class of frigates, built several years ago, but the Lords of the Admiralty having decided on converting her and several other vessels of the same description into screws, shewas brought up from the ordinary at Devonport to Chatham throkyard to undergo the requisite alterations to adapt her for a screw steamship. In order thus to convert her an addition of nearly 60 feet has to be nude in her length amidships., which necessitated the operation of cutting her in half and removing the separated portions of the vessel the required distance. The frigate having been cut asunder, the difficult task of removing the stern portion was com• mcnced at 10 o'clock on Saturday morning, in the presence of a number of spectators, notwithstanding th.t., heavy rain which fell, several of the officers of the Royal Engineers being also present. A power ful hydraulic machine having started the immense mass to be moved, the united efforts of numerous blocks and capstans worked by several gangs of labourers, were brought to bear on the vessel, which slowly coved down the ways prepared for it at the rate of about a foot per minute, until the ponderous body had been dragged 58ft. Bin., the length to be added to the. vessel, when the operation was com pleted, and the stern portion shored up and secured in its place. The entire operation, which lasted up wards of an hour, was most successfully performed under the superintendence of Mr. 0. W. Lang, the master shipwright, without accident of any descrip tion, or so much as a breakage of any of the tackle. The Arethusa is to be completed with all despatch. The Russian corvette Medved has sailed from the Motherbank for the Baltic. The Harrier, 17, screwcorvette, has been brought down Portsmouth Harbour, and will be placed in dock for overhaul and repairs. Capt. Sir F. L. M'Clintock, commanding her Majesty's ship Bulldog, has been elected an hon. member of the Royal Victoria Yacht Club by the committee, as a mark of their high appreciation of his gallant and successful mission in search of the Franklin expedition. The water will be admitted into the ship basin at Portsmouth to-day, and the vessels which have been under repair in the docks removed, and others placed in dock for that purpose. The screw steamship Hero, 91, Capt. G. H. Sey mour, steamed from Hamoaze, Devonport, on Fri day, into the Channel, to try her machinery, and returned to Hamoaze the same day. The screw steamship St. George, 91, was taken from her moorings in liamoaze, Devonport, on Friday, and placed in Keyham dock to be cleaned and valves overhauled. Rear-Admiral Sir T. S. Pasley, Superintendent of the Devonport Dockyard, struck his flag at sun set on Fri3ay on board the Royal Adelaide, 104, Capt. W. J. Williams, and has gone on 10 days' leave of absence. The duties of the dockyard will be performed by Commander J. Brown, and those of the ordinary by Capt. Williams. The paddlewheel steam storeship Dee, 4, Master Commander T. C. Pullen, from Portsmouth, arrived in Plymouth Sound on Saturday, with boilers for the screw steam troopship Perseverance, and was taken into Keyham basin in the afternoon. The following appointments were made on Satur day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Thomas W. Simeon and Lieut. Mexander R. B. Carter, to the Bull dog ; H. R. Kelly, midshipman, to the Grey hound ; N. 0. Roberts, assist.-surgeon, confirmed in theßetribution ; James Farrelly, assist.-surgeon, to the Monarch ; Samuel Grose, assist.-surgeon, to the Cadmus ; Joseph Halpin, assist.-surgeon, to the Edgar ; Wm. L. Bennett and Frederick C. H. Petch, master's assistants, to tha Bulldog; Henry A. Scrivener, clerk, to the Bulldog; Francis A. Martin, assist.-clerk, to the Formidable ; Francis T. Russell, acting third-class assist.-engineer, to the Himalaya, as supernumerary. TILE ARMY. We regret to have to announce the death of a distinguished veteran of the Indian army. General Sir David Leighton, K.C.8., the senior on the Bombay establishment, expired at his residence, Brafford-house, near Cheltenham, on the Ist inst., in his 88th year. Sir D. Leighton entered the ser vice of the late Hon. East India Company in 1795, and served in the Mysore campaign of 1799, and was present at the siege and capture of Seringapa tam. He accompanied the force under the late Duke of Wellington (then Col. Arthur Wellesley) in the operations against the Mahratta freebooter, Dondia Waugh, in 1800, and took part in the storming of the forts of Dummul, Rollebad, and Syrhingy. He served in Malabar during the re bellion in that province, in 1803, and in 1815 corn manded a brigade in the Deccan field force. He took part in the expedition under Sir Lionel Smith to Arabia, in 1821, which resulted in the subjugation of the Arab tribe of Beni 800 Ali. He held for many years the office of Adjutant- General to the Bombay Army, and the firmness, regularity, and impartiality which characterised his administration gave general satisfaction, and gained for him the esteem and respect of all those with whom he was brought in contact. The whole of the troops who are under orders to proceed to India curing the present and the fol lowing month are to be supplied with cholera belts previously to embarkation. The 55th (Westmoreland) Regiment, consisting of 35 officers, 834 men, 76 soldiers' wives, and 104 soldiers' children, with five horses, have embarked at Dublin on board the Foyle and Iberia steamers, for Portsmouth, where they will disembark and proceed for Farnborough, en route for Aldershott VOL Et TEER FIELD-D,ll' IN 11YDR-PAR.K. It is somewhat unfortunate that the volunteer movement, though especially of a defensive cha racter, should from its outset have had to struggle with the opposition of an implacable foe. With more than ordinary pertinacity, the weather for months past has exhibited itself under a disagree able aspect, and has literally done its best " to throw cold water" upon rifle corps wherever they were found. Even now, when the near advent of Midsummer day might naturally augur a more genial mood, a fiercer storm of wind and rain has not often Nen felt through Hyde Park on Satur d,iy list, when it had been announced that a bri gade field -day of nearly 3,000 riflemen, under com mand of Lord Ranelagh, would take place. Fortu nately, the perseverance, or stubbornness—Napo leon said it was the ignorance—of Englishmen is such that they will not acknowledge a defeat ; against all the volunteer movement has achieved a success, and in accordance with the same un flinching spirit, the field-day having been speed upon, was held on Saturday, under torrents of rain, which might well have justified a postpone ment. The different corps arrived upon the ground shortly before six o'clock ; from the pre valence of over-coats in particular battalions there at first some difficulty in recognising the different uniforms, but the following regi ments were represented in greater or less num bers :— TheQueen's Volunteer Engineers, South Middlesex, li Middlesex, nu.n g e ate, North Middles e x. W es t Men's College. of the ,Hampstead, and W or ki ng various th corps the Queen's was in the greatest strength, upwards of 500 mem bers being present ; white that which attracted most attention by its brilliant uniform and whichsteady march ing was the corps of Engineer at a short distance might have been mistaken fora battalion of the Guards. The evolutions were chiefly con fined to marching past, wheeling into line, l . n tak ing ground at particula r distances, as i th e, and e state of the weather rendered it extremely desirable l that the proceedings should not be unduly but the alacrity and good humo ur wiihprowhioenhgedh (' ; se veral manoeuvres were exec u t e d were deserving of the highest praise. Two excellent bands dig much to mitigate the sense of damp discomfort to -which spectators and volunteers were alike e x _ po n e el and the review was watched with interest by the occupants of a number of carriages. Lords Rad stock, Ranelagh, and Earl Spencer were among the commanding officers present, and the force under arms vrAs estimated at between , 1 500 and 2,000 men. bALE CiiY' SATURDAY. One of the most terrific storms with which the metropolis has been visited for several years com menced on Saturday evening, and which, although of short duration, exceeded in its disastrous effects that of last Monday. The wind had i een blowing during the forenoon from the eastward, and sud denly shifting about two o'clock to the S.S.W., in creased in violence until seven o'clock, when a most furious gust broke over the metropolis, inflicting a considerable amount of damage. The hoarding at the terminus of the new street at the corner of St. Martin's-lane was blown down, and another in Long-lane, Smithfield, was levelled with the ground. In the suburbs on the south side of the river the • destruction of property was immense, the roofs of several houses being completely stripped, the wreck of tiles, slates, and chimney pots falling with vio lence into the streets, by which several persons were seriously wounded and contused. Several trees were blown down in the vicinities of Clapham, Nor wood, and Wandsworth, house property being also materially damaged in those localities. The Middlesex side of the river did not escape un scathed ; in the vicinities of Russell, Brunswick, and Mecklenburg-squares much property was de stroyed, and in Clerken well and Islington the da mage was immense, the streets and highways be ing strewed with broken tiles, slates, and broken brick-bats, blown from the roofs of houses and chimneys, several stacks of which were blown down. Considerable damage was done to the trees in Hyde Park, the Green Park, and St. James's Park, and the shrubberies and young trees in the Regent's, Victoria, and Battersea Parks suffered considerably from the violence of the gale. At Charing cross, when turning from Trafalgar-square, a four• wheeled cab and horse were thrown on their side, the driver being much injured. The gale increased in fury on the flood-tide, and at high water yester day morning became a perfect hurricane. On the river the confusion amongst the shipping from mid night until 2 a.m. is indescribable, tiers of vessels ware torn from their moorings and driven to the north side of the river, where the collisions occa sioning much damage were numerous. Several barges, lighters, and tug-boats that had been driven over filled with water and sunk, and the water drift or spray breaking over the embankments of low lying wharfs and landing-places they were inundated to some depth, the receding tide carry ing off light and buoyant articles, and numerous gangs of workmen were employed yesterday in re pairing damages. At 3 o'clock the hurricane had subsided into a moderate gale, accompanied with showers of rain at intervals, and towards evening the wind drew more round to the westward. It is feared that accounts from the outports on the south and west coasts will bring very distressing and melancholy intelligence. THE GALE ON 211 E SOUTTI COAST. LEWES, SUNDAY ETENING. Along this coast the disasters have been many and serious, to say nothing of the damage done to landed property, which is great. Several wrecks are reported both at Shoreham and Brighton, or rather along the coast between the two, and many bodies have already been picked up. It is at Newhaven, however, that the shipping has suffered most. Here, during the whole of Saturday and throughout the fol lowing night, the wind blew a complete hurricane from the south-west. In the evening many vessels were seen off the coast, struggling hard against the tremendous sea which prevailed. Some got away and weathered the storm—others were not so suc cessful. A schooner (said to be the Wander, o Hastings) is a total wreck, the crew saved. The Woodside, of Southampton, laden with coal, was cast ashore. The captain is lost. A fishing smack, the John Wightman, of Hastings, came ashore, and was cast upon her broadside—crew saved. The Eliza Jones, of Carnarvon, laden with grain, also came ashore and is greatly damaged ; her cargo lost or rendered worthless. A French fishing-boat from Dieppe is greatly damaged, but no lives lost, An other fishing-boat from Hastings, on entering the harbour was partially swamped, and lost two of her crew. The damage altogether is estimated at several thousand pounds. The life-boat lay between the piers, manned by the Preventive Service, but really had no opportunity of rendering any service, the swell being such that it would have amounted to folly to venture out. The crew of the Eliza Jones had a narrow escape, having been obliged to fly to the rigging, while the sea rolled almost mountains high ; here they remained three or four hours, when they were got off. JP RECK OF TBE HAMBURG, HAMBURG STEAMER. The Harburg, London and Hamburg (cattle) steamer was wrecked in the gale of Monday last, after several hours exposure to the storm, the crew, with the exception of two, narrowly escaping with their lives. The Harburg was a fine steamer be longing to the General Steam Navigation Company, commanded by Captain Whittiogham. She has of late been chiefly employed in the conveyance of cattle from the Continent to London, and at the time of her unfortunate loss was on a passage from Hamburg to the Thames with 1,500 head of sheep and cattle on board. She had reached within 40 miles of the English coast when the gale com menced, and the officers and crew state that the sea rose higher than ever they had witnessed. It swept over the ship with overwhelming force, and the wind blew in such fearful gusts as to tear the canvas into ribbons. The hatches were battened down, and every precaution taken to prevent the vessel filling. The cattle and sheep were hurled from one end of the ship to the other in frightful confusion, and the crew had to take to the rigging to escape being killed. As heavy seas struck the vessel, the live stock was carried over board, while those below in between decks were either smothered or trampled to death. So tremen dous were the seas as they broke over, as to carry away the funnel, spars, bulwarks, stanchions, and everything standing on deck. Although the en gines were kept going the vessel made no headway, bat was driven across the North Sea on to the Dutch coast at Texel. The destruction of the ship appear ing inevitable, several of the crew took to the boats. The captain and some of the hands however re mained by the vessel in the hope that there might yet be a chance of saving her, and at length had to take to the rigging, where they were rescued by the life-boat. Two of the men, however, in endeavour ing to swim ashore perished. Another of the com• pang's fleet, the City of Hamburg, narrowly escaped foundering in the storm. She was also laden with sheep and cattle for London, and on her arrival in the river presented the appearance of a wreck. Her bulwarks, rails, spars, and everything on deck were carried away by seas which swept the ship, besides the loss of 500 of her live stock. MORE WRECKS AND LOSS OF LIFE. SHIELDS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON. The intelligence of the loss of the Edgar Athling, East Indiaman, reached here yesterday. She be longed to Mr. E. Yeung, of this town, and was a fine 13 years' ship. She sailed from here 03 Wed nesday week, for Aden ; and encountered the fear ful hurricane off Lowestoft on Monday morning. She lost her masts and was thrown on to her beam ends by the fury of the storm, and di ore about in, that helpless state until Tuesday, when she foun dered. Her officers and crew, 22 in number, were saved by smacks. The master's wife and a little child were also rescue d an d b roug ht on shore, though in a very exhausted state. Tile vessel and cargo were worth nearly £lO,OOO. The vessel is insured in the c l u b s h ere f or £ 7,500. The most distressing particulars are arriving of the effects of the gale. At l east 1 00 north country seamen have perished ; for, besides the amount of devastation on our own coast, we are likely to be severe sufferers by the eff‘,..cts of the ga l e on the Dutch coast. Several colliers' vessels are ashore--one, the Earl Talbot, totally lost ; and two vessels that sailed from North coast ports are lost, and all hands but one have perished. A Sunderland paper gives the following particulars of the loss of the barque Jane Green, on the Durham coast :—She was coming down from Sheerness on Monday morning, and the wind suddenly changed from S.E. to E., and th en to N.E., when it began to blow a terrific gale. The sleet and rain was falling fast, and the captain could not make out what part of the coast they were on. Thinking they were not so far north as it was afterwards proved they were, he attempted to wear her round, but without success, the fore topmast-staysail being carried away. The captain, considering he was near to Redcar rocks, let go both his anchors, but they came home, and the ship speedily drove on shore at Black Halls, four miles north of Hartlepool. The anchors being out, kept her from washing up the beach, and she was there fore soon knocked to pieces. The men then at tempted to get on shore on pieces of the wreck, on the spars, or whatever they could lay hold of. Five were cast on shore in a most exhausted and almost lifeless condition; but the rest of the crew either sank from exhaustion or were killed by pieces of the wreck. The captain had nearly reached the shore when a wave overwhelmed him, and he sank, and was not seen again. Every effort was made by the people in the neighbourhood to s,uceour and res t ore th ose w h o were c ast on s h ore . The bodies of the captain and the apprentice (both of whom were much r es p ec t e d) were picked up a mile north of Hai tlepool, and an inquest was held there yesterday. The vessel, a barque of 417 tons, went to pieces in about two hours, and the coast near Black Halls was covered with pieces of the wreck. The owner of the vessel, Mr. John Tully, shipowner, of Sunderland, yesterday received in. telligence that another of his vessels had foun dered in the gale. The Vernal, a brig of 214 tons register, bound from Sunderland to New Dieppe, with a cargo of coals, had received such injuries during the storm that the crew had to abandon her near Texel, and they have since landed all safe near Yarmouth. L 411 F INTELLIG ENCE,—June 2. ,1. COURT FOR DIVORCE AND MATRIMONIAL CAUSES. (Before the Judge Ordinary, Mr. Baron Martin, and Mr. Justice Willes.) CALLWELL V. C U.LWELL AND KENNEDY. Mr. Justice Hill, who was one of the judges be 'ore whom this case was tried in May last, came nto court this morning to hear an application on the subject of the settlements. The fury had returned a verdict for the petitioner, and had assessed the damages against the co-te spondent at £3,000. Dr. Phillimore, Q C. (with whom was Dr. Tris tram), for the petitioner, stated that Mrs. Callwell would be entitled to £1,384 on the death of her father, which was settled absolutely upon the hus band. Mr. Callwell had settled £4OO a•year on Mrs. Callwell. Mr. Callwell proposed that the £1,384 should now be settled on Mrs. Callwell without power of anticipation, and after her death that it should go to the children ; that the £4OO a-year should be returned to Mr. Callwell, and that the damages should be settled upon a child of Mrs. Callwell's of whom he believed Mr. Kennedy to be the father. The Judge-Ordinary said if it was not Mr. Call well's child he could not ask the court to make a provision for it. What was Mr. Callwell's income ? Dr. Phillimore said he was instructed that it was between £3,000 and £4,000 a-year. Mr. Serjeant Pigott said he appeared to watch the case for Mr. Kennedy, and he would only sug gest that any order which the court might make with refence to the damages might be limited to £1,500, in pursuance of an understanding which had been come to between himself and his learned friend. The Judge-Ordinary said it would be most dan gerous to recognise anything like an arrangement between the parties, and the court could not do so. Mr. T. Jones, for Mrs. Callwell, said that she neither desired alimony nor any benefit from the £4OO which had been settled upon her, but she did claim to have the absolute disposal of the £1,384. He reminded the court that it did not appear on the trial that Mrs. Callwell had been guilty of, any turpitude, that she had been cast from an ele vated station in society, and that it was desirable a respectable position should be assured to her. The Judge-Ordinary said that the performance of the duty cast upon the Court was attended with very considerable difficulty. The act gave the Court, power to direct a settlement to be made, but it pro vided no machinery for carrying that direction into effect, Time must be taken for consideration. IRVINE V. IRVINE AND GILL. Dr. Dean, Q.C., and Dr. Swabey appeared for the petitioner, who charged his wife with adultery ; and Mr. Pritchard for the respondent, who denied the adultery, and pleaded condonation and a coun ter charge. The case was part heard on Tuesday last, and was then adjourned for the amendment of the pe tition and for the production of farther evidence. The marriage took place in 1845 at Hartlepool, and there were two children. The petitioner was the mate of a vessel trading to Australia. In July, 1858, he left England, and returned in April, 1859. He lived with his wife for a few days at Limehouse, and then discovered that she was seven months gone with child, and separated from her. She was de delivered of a child in June, 1859. Two witnesses, a friend of the respondent named Forster, and a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Irvine, were called this day by Mr. Pritchard, and proved that after Mr. Irvine's return he slept with his wife for a few nights, and it was contended that the Court ought therefore to presume condonation, in asmuch as he could not have been ignorant of his wife's condition. It was, however, elicited in cross examination that there was a quarrel about her pregnancy a few days after his return, that it had not been mentioned before that quarrel, and that immediately afterwards he went away from the house. The Judge-Ordinary said the Court had no doubt that the respondent had failed to establish her plea of condonation, and there appeared to be no ground whatever for the plea of recrimination. The mar riage would, therefore, be dissolved. ROGERS V. ROGERS AND HOLMSHAW. Mr. Jacob appeared for the petitioner, Dr. Wad dilove for the respondent, and Mr. Forster for the co-respondent. The petitioner charged his wife with adultery. She pleaded a denial, and the co-respondent pleaded that he should not be 21 years of age until April next, that he had no property, and that he had lost his situation. Mr. Rogers was a tanner in a large way of busi ness at Stourport, in Worcestershire. In February, 1850, he married the respondent, his age being then 28, and hers 21, and they lived happily to gether until September last. Mrs. Rogers was fond of music, and the co-respondent, George Frederick Holmshaw, who was an organist and a teacher of music, visited at her houses. On the 24th of September last Mrs. Rogers went, as she represented, to pay a visit to an aunt at Wakefield. A few days afterwards Mr. Rogers followed her to Wakefield, but was surprised to find that she had never been there. He instituted inquiries, and at last traced her to London. She was then cohabit ing with Holmshaw in Albany-street, Regent's park, and they passed as man and wife under the name of Mr. and Mrs. Russell. The Court dissolved the marriage, with costs against the co-respondent. SAVORY V. SAVORY. Mr. Field appeared for the petitioner. This was a petition by a wife on the ground of adultery, coupled with desertion. The respondent was a licensed victualler, and had kept several publichouses in different parts of London. He was married in 1834, and cohabited with his wife until 1840. He became embarrassed in circumstances, and in 1810 he left her in a house in Baker-street, and has never since provided a home for her or con tributed to her support. She has been maintained by her family. The respondent has cohabited with a girl named Elizabeth Fletcher. The Court granted a decree. REAM V. HEATH AND LONGLEY. Mr. Macqueen was counsel for the petitioner. The marriage in this case took place in October, 1852. Mr. Heath is a scourer and dyer in St. Pan cras. He and his wife lived happily together for about six years, and had two children. In August, 1838, Mrs. Heath asked permission to visit two of her aunts at Brighton, as she was not in good health. Her husband allowed her to go, and she stayed away for six weeks and then returned. About a fortnight afterwards she went away again, under the pretence of paying a visit to a relation at Woodford. In consequence of information that he received from his father, the petitioner made inquiries, which resulted in the. discovery that his wife, instead of going to Brighton and Woodford. had been living in lodgings at Hoxton with the co respondent, a clerk in a mercantile house in the city. He thereupon separated from her. The Court dissolved the marriage. WEST V. WE ST AND PENNEFATIIER. . Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Dr. Spinks conducted the petitioner's case ; Dr. Swabey.appeared for the respondent, and Mr. Garth for the co-respondent. Lieutenant Colonel John Templer West prayed for a dissolution of his marriage with Mrs. Marga retta Jane Maria West on the ground of her adul tery with Captain Ponnefather. The respondent and co-respondent pleaded a denial of the adultery. Dr. Phillimore stated that the petitioner was married on Feb. 1, 1849, to the respondent, who was the daughter of a Mr. Delapole, a gentleman of ancient family in Devonshire. They lived to gether happily at Malvern, Ryde, and other rlaces, and had two children—a son, born in September, 1850, and a daughter, born in June, 1853. Five or six years ago, Colonel West sold out of the Guards and travelled upon the continent with his wife. In May, 1859, they were staying at Malta. On the 23d of that month, Colonel West was obliged to go to London upon business, and he left Mrs. West at Malta. In the fulloNsing August he received infor mation that Mrs. West had eloped with Captain Pennefather, of the 41st Regiment. He and his brother went in search of them, a:A found them at Duotno d'Ossola, Piedmont. A duel took place be tween Captain Pennefather and Colonel West, and on Colonel West's return to England he commenced this suit. The following wit.iesscs were examined : Henry 'Wyndham Wcst.—l am a cousin of the petitioner. After his marriage he resided at Ches hamplace, than at Malvern, then at Hyde. As far as I could obA:rve, he always behaved kindly to his wife. Major Frederick West.—l am a brother of the petitioner, and I was present at his marriage. 1 visited my brother and his wife from that time down to 1858. They lived amicably together. In 1859 I went with my brother to Italy. We went to Duomo d'a•sola. About the 22d of August we saw Captain Pennt rather and the respondent. They were together. A duel took place between my brother and Captain Penefather. We returned to England. In December, 1859, I went to 107, Jermyn-street, St, James's, with the solicitor, and' 1 VI 0 Tait /MTh, LONDON; MONDAY;rBVBN/NG,'"'arrirE 4. Istrd. with Ellen Hayes. We saw Captain Pennefather and ray sister-in-law. Ellen Hayes—l am a chambermaid at :‘,lorley's Hotel, Trafalgar-square. In 0 - .10 - uLr last Captain Pennefather came there. A lady was with him who passed as Mrs. Pennefather. They occupied apartments as man and wife. The lady said that Captain Pennefather was her second husband. I afterwards saw her and Captain Pennefather at 107, Jermyn-street. _ No evidence was called on the part of the respondents. Dr. Phillimoro said the petition contained a prayer with regard to the settlement, but no appli cation on the subject would be made that day. The Judge-Ordinary suggested that the decree should be suspended until the application had been made, as there might be a petition for permanent ali mon v. Pr. : 7 Nvabey said the respondent did not ask for alimony. The Court then pronounced the decree. CASE V. CASE. Dr. Spinks appeared for the petitioner. Mrs. Selina Catherine Case prayed for a decree on the ground of the adultery and desertion of George Tinkler Case, who is a well-known con certina player. He married the petitioner in Sep tember, 1816, and lived happily with her in dif ferent parts of London. Mrs. Case, who wept very much while giving her evidence, stated that in 1852 his conduct towards her began to change, that he stayed out late at night, and sometimes all night, and that he did not appear to take pleasure in her society. In April, 1856, when they were living at South Bank, she was very ill. Her husband wrote to her sister to say that he was ' obliged to go into the country to fulfil an engage ment, and asked her sister to take charge of her during his absence. She went to her sister's house, and her husband went away and never after wards cohabited with her, He had been frequently requested by her sister to provide a home for his wife, but he bad always refused. When he was asked where he was living, he said that he had no home, and that lie slept at any place where he hap pened to be. Mrs. Case's evidence was corroborated by her sister. It was then proved that since 1856 Mr. Case had been cohabiting with a ballet-dancer named Eliza beth Cruft, in Great Portland street, and that in 1857 he had a child by her. The Court dissolved the marriage on the ground of adultery, coupled with desertion. WILLIAMS V. WILLIAMS AND CRISPIN. Mr. Pritchard appeared for the petitioner. This was a petition by a firewood manufacturer, at Haggerston', for a dissolution of his marriage, on the ground of his wife's adultery with one of his apprentices. The hearing was adjourned for further evidence. MAY V. MAY AND PEARCE. Mr. Brett and Mr. Pritchard appeared for the petitioner. __ George May was formerly a seaman at Fal mouth, arid he there married the respondent in 1848. He afterwards removed to Liverpool, ob tained employment as an outfitter and took a beershop, which was managed by his wife. She contracted habits of intoxication, and he was obliged to give up the beershop. He made several at tempts to reclaim her but did not succeed, and at last he was obliged to separate from her, He made her a small allowance, with which she went into lodgings. In the spring of last year a shoemaker named Pearce was lodging in the same house, she formed a criminal intimacy with him, and it was clearly proved that on the night of Whit-Sunday they had slept together at another house in Liver pool. They were sent away from the lodgings they then occupied, and have since lived together. Their lordships dissolved the marriage. HEENAN TESTIMONIAL IN THE UNITED STATE& (From the New York Herald.) An adjourned meeting of the finance committee appointed to collect funds for the "Heenan Testi monial" was held in Goldbeck's-hall last evening, and, notwithstanding the inclemency of the wea ther, was liberally attended by the friends and ad mirers of the American champion. The meeting was called to order by Mr. James M. Turner, the chairman of the committee ; and Mr. Thomas Banker was appointed secretary. A communication from Michael Phelan was read, enclosing his cheque for 100 dollars, and stating that he had several other subscriptions promised which would be handed over to the committee in due time. The communication was adopted, with a vote of thanks. Mr. JAMES IRVING, one of the committee, stated that he had collected 850 dollars, and expected to largely increase the amount. Mr. GEORGE HILL stated that he had collected between 500 and 600 dollars. Mr. C, ENELI US W. CAMPBELL reported the sub scription of a similar amount, and that he was already cognisant of a collection by different gen tlemen of several thousand dollars. The CHAIRMAN offered the following preamble and resolution, which was unanimously adopted,— " 'Whereas, John C. Heenan, the acknowledged fistic champion of the world, having, by his pro sional skill and unflinching integrity of character, sustained in a masterly manner in England the fair fame of his native country and her people, in a com bat with the late fistic champion of England ; there fore, be it Resolved—That a committee of five be appointed from this body, whose duties it shall be to corre spond and advise with such parties throughout the United States as in their judgment can, by personal exertion, further the objects of this organisation ; and that they (the parties so addressed) be invited to co operate with us in making the Heenan testi monial a national ovation. The CHAIRMAN stated that committees were being organised in Boston, Providence, Philadel phia, Baltimore, New Orleans, and other large cities, to co-operate with the New York finance committee, and that he believed a sum largely be yond the general expectation would be realised. A gold belt is expected from California; an elegant watch and chain is being manufactured by the friends of the Benicia Boy in Troy, and various testimonials from private individuals are under way. Letters are received every day from all sec tions of the country making, inquiries and forward ing contributions, and a zeal appears to be mani fested all over the United States to " render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's." As fast as the money is reek iced it is deposited in the bank of Dun can, Sherman, and Co., subject to the order of John C. Heenan. Ducing the evening three gentlemen came forward and gave twenty-five dollars each towards the object of the meeting. All classes appear to be subscribing liberally, and our merchants and brokers especially are following moderately in the wake of their British brethren. The committee expect to raise about fifteen thou sand dollars, but the probabilt.y is that the amount received from all quarters will not be less than twenty-five or thirty thousand dollars. As only a portion of the twenty subscription-books were handed in, it is impossible to say what sum has thus far been realised. A vote was passed thanking the press of the city For the stand it has taken in favour of John C. Heenan, and the support generally rendered to urn. The thanks of the committee were also moved and passed to Messrs. Duncan and Sherman, the bankers. The CHAIRMAN stated that he had been informed that a plan was on toot to get up a testimonial for Sayers, and he hoped, if such was the case, that we should not be behind-hand. No response was made, however, and the subject of a Sayers testimonial dropped. A resolution was adopted to the effect that the subscription-books should be left at the principal hotels and public places ; and it was suggested that some arrangement should be made by which even the widow's mite could be handed in to add to the magnificent character of the ovation. The name of Mr. Charles Ottegnon was added to the committee, increasing its number to twenty one ; and there being no other business before the meeting, an adjournment then took place until Monday evening next. CORPORATION REFORM, CITY OF LONDON.— It was stated on Saturday at Guildhall that the Remem brancer had received an intimatisn from the Government to the effect that the bill for the " Better Regulation of the Corporation of London" would not be proceeded with this session. This makes the eighth time that similar results have followed the introduction of bills by Government for the above purpose. MR. SPURGEON AND THE NOBILITY.—This cele brated preacher attended at Abercarn on Wednesday last, where he preached in a large field belonging to Mr. Rogers to at least 20,000. Our informant says that among those present were the Lord Lieutenant of Monmouthshire, and Mrs Leigh : Lord Tredegar, Lady Tredegar and family ; Lord Llanover, Lady Llanover, and family ; and a large number of the leading gentry of the county. Previous to commencing Divine worship it was represented to the great preacher that it would be advisable for the large concourse f people to move aside, to enable the several carriages and-tour to approach nearer the platform, so that the occu pants might nore easily hear him, upon which he replied that he did not conic there to preach to horses, but to men ; four horses and a carriage would occupy the ground of 50 • people, and, therefore, the horses and carriages must remain where they were. We aro also informed that after the service the Lord-Lieutenant sent for Mr. Spurgeon, and invited him to come to Pontypool ; but Mr. Spurgeon re plied that ho was sorry he could not comply with his lord ship's wish, as ho had full engagements for the next two years,. Cardtff and Merthyr atcardian. THIS DAY'S MARI:BLS. CORN EXCHANGE. The leading country markets, hold on Saturday, were somewhat scantily surplied with wheat, yet most descrip tions changed hands slowly, at about stationary prices to a slight advance. The barley trade was far from active, and the transactions in most other articles were far from numer ous. Throughout the continent, most descriptions of produce have supported their previous value, at which about an average business has boon passing. In the - United States, both wheat and flour have moved off slowly, and prices have had a downward tendency. The arrivals of English grain up to our market, last week, were very moderate. The imports from abroad amounted to 17,842 qrs of wheat, 4,985 barley, 16,817 oats, 609 rye, 40 bean., 4,037 peas, 672 tares, 5,160 linseed, 5,678 rape seed, 161 sundry seeds, 3,066 sacks and 2,1E5 barrels of flour. A very limited supply of wheat was reeei% ed fresh up to-day from Kent, and the receipts from Essex were only moderate. The small number of samples on the stands, and the reduced stocks of foreign in warehouse, produced great firmness on the part of factors, who mostly demanded 3s per quarter more money than last week. Sales, how ever, progressed slowly, but prices may be called is to 2s per qu rter higher than on Monday last. - We were but moderately supplied with most kinds of foreign wheat. There was great firmness on the part o holders, and prices were, in most instances, quite ls. to 2s. per quarter higher. There was a slight improvement in the inquiry for float .. ing cargoes, at full quotations. Scarcely any English barley was on offer, and the supply of Foreign was very moderate. Sales progressed steadily at fully late rates. Fine parcels of malt moved off steadily ; other kinds slowly, at full prices. The oat trade was firm, at fully last week's currency. The supply was only moderate. Beans were in short supply, and steady request, at full prices. Peas moved off firmly, at extreme rates. The flour trade was by no means active. Prices, however, were firmly supported. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET. The total imports of foreign stock into London last week amounted to 6,722 head. In the corresponding week in 1859 we received 4,452 ; in 1358, 2,962 ; in 1857, 2,531; in 1856, 2,305; in 1855, 2,880; and is 1854, 3,369 head. IMPORTS INTO LONDON LAST WEER. From. Beasts. Sheep.

Foreign calves came freely to hand. A very moderate supply of beasts was received fresh up this morning from our own grazing districts, and the gene ral quality of the stock was very middling. The attend ance of both town and country buyers was numerous, and all breeds sold freely, at an advance in the quotations of 2d. per 81bs. The best Scots readily produced fully ss. ed. per 81bs. The arrivals from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam bridgeshire amounted to 2,200 Scots, short horns, and crosses —from other parts of England, 420 various breeds. No stock reached us from Ireland, and scarcely any supply came to hand from Scotland. We were seasonably well supplied with sheep ; but prime breeds were comparatively scarce. The mutton trade was much less active, and last Monday's currency was barely supported. However the best Downs realised 6s. par 81bs. There was a fair demand for lambs—the supply of which was moderate—at previous quotations. The best Downs from the Isle of Wight sold at 7s. ; from Essex, 7s. 4d. to 7s. 6cl. per 81bs. We had a good sale for calves, at quite 2d. per 81bs. above last week's prices. The top figure was 6s. 10d. per 81bs. Pigs changed hands slowly; nevertheless the quotations were supported. It will be seen that compared with last yeaz the value of stock is still very high. Apparently there is no prospect of any important decline in it. Per 81bs to sink the offal. s. d. s. d.

The programme for the first three days of the Ascot meeting is nearly complete, and it is evident no stone has been left unturned to place the Royal gathering at the top of the tree, there being such a superabundance of valuable items in the list to em ploy horses that the Royal Stand Plate, with 200 soya. added, has not filled, Altogether, nearly £3,000 has been 'got together (independently of the Queen's Gold Vase) to be given away, being an increase upon the sum supplied last year of quite £l,lOO, and nearly doubling the added money of two years ago ; and the bill of fare contains five new items, the chief of which is the Queen's Stand Plate, for all ages, over - the T.Y.C. (3 fur longs 136 yards), and it is certainly the most exciting event set for Tuesday, being worth a clear 600 guineas to the winner. I shall look for the Matilda colt and Lady Clifden in the front rank at the finish, with the Drone and Mentmore running well up. The Queen's Gold Vase, two miles, will not cause any great excitement. Horror ought to beat Magnum with but 31b the worst of the weights, having shown himself of a better class. The Trial Stakes, new mile, has an entry of 26, and Gaspard, 4 yrs, Bst 111 b, with Restes, 3 yrs, Bst 31b, are the best class animals engaged ; and if Restes can beat Gaspard with a 91b penalty in the saddle, the Baron may draw first blood at the Royal meeting. The Eighth Triennial for 4-yr-olds, two miles, has all the appearance of a " good thing " for Mouravieff. There is a bonus of 200 sovs with the Ascot Stakes, two miles and a half, for the first time, and two thirds of the twenty-seven acceptors may be tempted by the £9OO awaiting their pleasure, the handicap being one of the best of the year. I ex pect to see Farmer's Daughter colt or Flitch the winner. On Wednesday the Fern Hill Stakes, for 2 and 3-yr-olds, half a mile, may promote a second meet ing between Lady Clifden, Big Ben, and Little Lady, who, with Folkestone and one or two others, will do good battle for the youngsters, while Fravola can be trusted to take up the cudgels for the 3-yr-olds; and, if in the humour, she may get a very good measure of Lady Clifden, who looks the most like a winner on paper. For the Royal Hunt Cup I prefer the chances of Ancient Briton, Woodburn, and Forager. The Ninth Triennial, for three-yr-olds, should fall an easy prey to The Wizard; but the Second Biennial on the same course, might produce a race, Thor manby having been so firmly opposed for the Cup within the last few hours that I hardly know what move is up, and he may not see Ascot after all the noise made about him and the Cup. In his ab sence, Simple Simon or Gamester ought to furnish the winner. For the New Stakes 41 two-year-olds have been nominated, one more than last year. Brown Duchess or one of Lord Stamford's ought to furnish the winner. On the last day only two items claim present notice, the remaining six having yet to be named for. Mr. Merry may secure one, and the Wizard the other. A FRESH MAN. LAW INTELLIG.ENOE.--(THIS DAY. COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before Sir C. Cresswell, Mr. Baron Martin, and Mr. Justice Willes.)" SIMS V. SIMS-A MONTH AFTER MARRIAGE. Dr. Phillimore, Q.C., and Mr. Pritchard were counse] for the petitioner, and the suit was undefended. It appeared that the petitioner is the daughter of a small farmer, living at St. Stephen's, Cornwall, and she applied to the court for a dissolution of marriage on the ground of her husband's cruelty and adultery. The respondent was a miner and in good circumstances, and after the mar riage, which took place in November, 1856, both parties lived together at the house of the 1 , , father. In about three weeks or a rr , ::111,, the respondent com menced his ill-treatmeil , uiva in the habit of coming home in a state of drunkenness, pulling her out of bed, striking her on the body and on the face, kicking her, and, pulling her by the hair. He also frequently blackened her eyes, and was in the habit of ill-treating her father and mother, and sisters. Ten months after the marriage she gave birth to a child, and the respondent ill-treated her during the period of her pregnancy. In the early part of 1857 he left her and cohabited wirh another woman, by whom he had a child. He did not return to the petitioner, and it was believed that he was at present in America. The facts were fully established, and the cou 'decreed :he dissolution of marriage. TBIS DAY'S SHIPPLY6I. LONDON, June 4.—Wind this day at noon—West ; strong breeze, with rain.

Tn. Aff.NUAL SALE OF PER MAJESTY'S 1/I,..ARLING'S. The drenching rain which fell with scarcely a few minutes' intermi,sion on Saturday, cid not deter purchasers of blood stock from attending; tile annual sale of her Majesty's yearlings at the Royal Pad docks, Hampton Court. Both the home and foreign market were well represented, and amongst the throng which surrounded Mr. Tattersall, who, in con sequence of the inclement weather, was compelled to convert a closed carriage into a rostrum, were many of the principal trainers, and several leading pat laws of the turf. The 20 yearlings averaged 221 I guineas each. At ti mes compet i t i on was very spi rited, and excited much interest. A chesnut colt, by Stockwell out of Stamp, realised 810 guineas, and it was knocked down to Lord Coventry, after much brisk bidding with Mr. J. Merry, Lord Stamford, and Sir Joseph Hawley. The yearlings purchased by Me. Carter are, we understand, for the King of Sardinia. Several fillies were knocked down to Messrs. Dudley and Bruce for exportation to Ame rica. The stock seemed in admirable condition, and the care which had evidently been bestowed upon them by Mr. Ransom, the stud groom, was warmly and deservedly acknowledged by all per sons prei.ent. Prior to the sale a very substantial and appetising luncheon was provided, of which every one was tree to partake, and the repast was presided over by the daughter of Mr. Ransom with much grace and attention.

CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.—We are informed that a large number of forged notes, bearing date the 15th of February, 1860, are in circulation. They are admirably executed, and bear so close a resemblance in every respect to genuine ones, that the most experienced persons. are likely to be deceived by them. The vignette at the head of the notes defies detection, so closely is it copied from the Bank of England note. The paper is of a deeper colour than a good Bank .note, and the water mark is not only a perfect imitation in every respect of the paper manufactured for the Bank, but it cannot be removed or obliterated by damping —a test hitherto supposed to be infallible for discovering the genuineness of Bank-notes.
