(Before Sir P. Wood.) GYE V. GRAZIANI AND SM/TR.—THE RIVAL ITALIAN OPERAS. Mr. Rolt this morning, in accordance with the arrange ment entered into by both parties at the time the case Was first before the court, on behalf of Mr. Gye of the Royal Italian Opera, Covent-garden, plaintiff, for an injunction to restrain the defendant Francisco Graziani from violating or committing any breach of his agreement with the plaintiff, and that he (Graziani) might be prevented from singing at any theatre or concert in Great Britain out of the Royal Italian Opera, Covent-garden, and that he •in particular might be restrained from singing at the Theatre- Royal, Drury-lane. The learned gentleman, opening his case, having cited the agreement entered into between Mr. Gye and Signor Graziani, stated his present applica tion was a motion to restrain Signor Graziani from ap pearing at the Theatre-Royal, Drury-lane, of which Mr. Smith was leases. From the agreement, it appeared that Signor Graziani had entered into an agreement with Mr. Gye from the 26th of April, 1859, to the 31st July, 1859, but Graziani was to commence on the 2d of April if Mr. Gye wished, and notice was accordingly given to him (Graziani) to that effect before the doze of January. The salary the Signor . was to receive was £320 a month, and he was to sing at all operas and concerts for Mr. Gye, but no where else without the written permission of Mr. Gye, except at private or gratis concerts. What line of defence could be set up to the resistance of the motion he could not for a moment imagine, especially as a similar agreement between Mr. Gye and Signor Graziani had been acted upon in previous years. But it appeared that about the same time that these negotiations were going on Signor Graziani entered into a contract with Mr. Smith, of Drury-lane Theatre, and perhaps a key to his conduct might be found in • the fact that Mr. Smith had offered him £420 a month instead of £320. The pre tence set up by , Graziani was that at the close of 1858 Mr. Gye owed him two weeks' salary, and this was his justification for entering upon an engagement .with Mr. Smith, although meanwhile he had been hi communication with Mr. Gye as to the manner in which the said engagement was to be carried out. It clearly appeared that for some time Graziani had wavered as to the course he should adopt, and it would seem that Mr. Smith had given him an indemnity against a n y proceeding that might be taken against him, and the ' engage ment with Gye was repudiated. The indemnity was carefully withheld from the plaintiff, and he contended that until that indemnity was produced that the injunction must go. The learned counsel then observed that the fore going facts upon which he relied and proceeded to examine with great minuteness and at considerable length the dates connected with the whole transaction, and read a number of documents which set forth that Signor Graziani frequently wrote to Mr. Gye and Mr. Harris for payment of £l6O, and in one 'of his letters he (Graziani) stated that unless the money was paid immediately he should not hold himself engaged, and warning Mr. Gye '• not to depend upon him for the forthcoming season," This point was the 'whole upon which.the case turned, and upon which it was sought to justify the engage ment entered into with Mr. Smith. The screw had been attempted to be put on Mr. Gye, as he had asked Graziani to be kind enough to allow the payment. of the £l6O to stand' over until the commencement of the next season, but theise was no stipulation between the parties that Graziani's engaged at the Royal Italian Opera, Covent Garden, was to be conditional upon the payment of this £l6O at any specified time. The money was paid, however before the commencement of the Covent Garden season. After Graziani had discovered the position into which he had placed himself by the . contracts he had been induced to sign by Harris, he (Graziani) met that gentleman in a cafe in Paris, and there, • after publicly calling him all sorts of names, challenged him to fight a duel, but Harris declined the invitation—(laughter)—and contented himself by merely reminding Graziani that lie had signed the engagement. The learned gentleman said ho was entitled by law to the injunction, and concluded by reading the examination of Signor Graziani before the Master, which set forth that his signature to the engagement with Mr. Gye had been obteined through misreprbientation by his agent—that he afterwards considered, as the money owing to him by Gye had not been paid in September, as stipulated, the agreement void, and that he was at perfect liberty to enter into any . new engagement that might be offered. Such being his impression, he signed the engage ment to Mr. Smith to sing at Drury-lane . Theatre for the season 1859, upon• receiving an indemnity for the payment of any expenses' that might arise in the event of Mr. Gye, of Covent Garden Theatre. commencing any pro ceedings at law against him for an illegal bretich of en gagement. . • The case will not be concluded to-day. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--(THIS. DAY.) GUILDHALL. " NON MI RECORDI ". WITH A VENGEANCE.—James Gray, a thickset man, dressed like a drover, was charged before Alderman Mechi with breaking a glass in the George public-house, keptby Mr'. Deardney. The prosecutor said that the prisoner did not appear to have been drinking ; but the prisoner declared that he did not remember b.ing in the house at all. (Laughter.) The Alderman discharged him with a caution to be more careful of himself for the future, and the prisoner left•the dock tendering thO Value'of the glass to Mr. Deardney. MORE EMBEZZLEMENT.—SAD CASE.-Charles , John Le Marchant, a very respectable -looking young man, aged 26, was charged with embezzling various sums of money, the property of his employers,' who are tallymen. Mr. Perry, from Mr. Buchanan's, appeared for the defendant. It appeared that the sums alleged to have been taken by the prisoner were very small, only a few shillings. The prosecutor, Mr. Park, said the prisoner had beet' in his employment for 12 months. He produced a statement showing that prisoner had received 6s. from a Mrs. Toro good. Mrs. Hill proved:paying a!mall sum to the prisoner. Mr. Perry cross -examined the witnes at considerable length, and elicited that the prisoner had frequently. re. ceived monies from witness, for which he had given regular receipts. ML Smith proved paying a small sum to the prisoner. Neither of these sums had been accounted for by the pri soner. One witness from whom prisoner had received 2s. 6d. said that the prisoner brought him the money and asked him to pay it to Mr. Bark, who refused it. The Alderman put some questions to the prosecutor as to the sums received by the prisoner being entered in a book, and there being some doubt, ordered the prisoner to be dis charged. "THE COLD SHOULDER."—A CASE OF OBSTRUCTION. —Mr. James Hudson, a silk agent and warehouseman, of Milk-street, appeared in support of a summons taken ot,t against Messrs. Brown and Davis, for obstructing a certain courtway, in Clement's-court. Mr. Nason appeared for the defendant. The plaintiff said that , the entrance to and egress from the court was blocked up almost constantly by a sledge, used by defendants in their business• This sledge was a great obstruction, and plaintiff* came forward upon public grounds. • In his cross-examination, plaintiff said that Mr. Davis was a gentleman, but Mr. Brown had given him the cold shoulder. (Laughter.) ' He never had any quarrel with Mr. Brown, all he had was the " cold shoulder," (Laughter.) Ho (plaintiff) used the court himself, and meant to have a door leading to it. He used the court in his ordinary course of business. He had been very uncivilly treated by defendant's porter, who was the terror of the neighbour hood. As to the size of the sledge he would not and could not say anything About that—indeed, there was . rio occasion as Mr. Mason had taken care to inform himself of the dimensions this morning. Defendant's porter was the terror of the neighbourhood, but he (plaintiff) never called him a viper. (Laughter) Defendant's foreman was called, and said that the sledge was removed as soon as the work in which it was necessary was. completed. It was placed against the wall of the court on its edge. Plaintiff had insulted this witness very grossly. He (plaintiff) used the court for his purposes. The sledge complained of had been in the court for nine years, and no one had ever said anything about it. Mr. Mason said he could call witnesses who resided in the locality, who . ivould depose that the sledge was not a nuisance. Mr. Alderman Mechi said that was nothing, as the act of parliament was very stringent, and the article obstructed one person who complained, and he had the right to redress, There was nothing to prevent the defendant using the sledge, but it must be removed into defendant's premises. If this was done he (the Alderman) would not convict. Mr. Mason—That being so we will remove it. Alderman—Oh! I must convict. I shall be very sorry. You had bettor be good friends. The parties thou left.the court. MARLBOROUGH-STREET Henry Williams and William Stanley, two young men, were charged with stealing from the carriages of Alfred Wilson, Esq., of 19, Leiuster-gardens, Hyde Park, a lady's cloak. James Collins, of 65, Britannia -street, Gray's Inn road; said that 110 was in 56110-square between three and six on the previous evening when he saw Williams, who walking in company with the other prisoner, go up to a gentleman's_ carriage, which was standing along with several others, and take from it the cloak produced, and the two prisoners immediately started off down a court. He followed them and as they were running he saw Williams take from his pocket a pocket handkerchief and wrap up the cloak in• it. He then saw them go into a passage 'Of a ' private house near New port market, and' on their coming out he ' heard William say he wished Jere had been a "poque" in the cloak, the word "poque," among the fraternity meaning pocket-book. He afterwards saw them go into a coffee house and informeera constable. Mr. Binghani aslced the witness if he had not seen him before, when he replied that he was at the court on the previous day, having charged two lads with picking pockets. Alfred Wilson, Esq., of 19, Leicester-square, identified the cloak as his property. Veres, 969, proved taking prisoners into custody with the cloak in their possession. Williams was said to have been in custody before, and the other to be the companion of thieves. Remanded. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock. NEWMARKET RACES.-(THIS DA r.

AN UNGRATEFUL THlEF.—Charles Major, aged 19, who was described as hating no home, was charged with steal ing M. in silver and five rings, the property of John Hillier. The prosecutor is a greengrocer and fruiterer, of No. - 3, Sidney-street, Commercial-road, and about three weeks ago the prisoner, who was then in great distress, applied to Mr. Hillier for employment, and said he was starving. The prosecutor being in:want: of assistance, and his business taking him out of doors the greater part of the day, "he took the prisoner into his employ, assigned him a room in his house, and made him as comfortable as possible, intending, if he behaved himself, to make him a partner in his business. On Saturday, the 30th of April, Mrs. Hillier sent the pri soner upstairs to .fetch twenty shillings in silVor from a drawer in her bed-room for the purpose of giving change. Shortly afterwards she handed the same amount of silver to the prisoner, and told him to put £1 back again in her drawer, and he went up stairs apparently for that purpose. At half-past 11 the same morning Mrs, Hillier sent the prisoner out upon an errand. He did not return, and, upon going to her drawer, Mrs. Hillier not only missed the 20s. worth of silver which ought to have been placed there, but also missed five gold rings, two with itones, a keeper, a wedding ring, and a mourning ring. They were in the same drawer as the money, and nobody had access to that drawer but the prosecutor and his wife and• the pri soner. Circumstandes afterwards transpired which left no doubt that the prisoner had been robbing his kind bene factors of both money and property. .. • The rings stolen were valued at three guineas. • • • The prisoner in defence said he could take a "'loath" he never took anythink whatsomdever, and nothing was found upon him. .. The prisoner was committed for trial. THE WAR IN ITALY. (From the Times.) Hitherto we have read the riddles propounded to us by the daily telegrams with a moderate success. There is an interval of five days between the enig matical sentence Which comes by wire and the inter pretation which halts after it. We accordingly now find our correspondents from the scat of war de scribing the Austrians as gathering in force upon the northern bank of the Po, making •pontoon bridges, pushing - slender parties across the great river, and marching in force upon Tortona and Voghera. They. describe, in fact, those demonstra tions which we •have already picked out from 'the telegrams, and picture the Austrians as ready to cross • the river and attack the French and Sardinians posted among the hills and fortresses on the southern .side, and to attack then .. both in front and "flank. • Our correspondents now describe, with as much • certainty as can be, perhaps, expected under the circumstances of great discou ragement in which they are placed, those movements which seemed to .place .the Austrians in such a posi tion with regard-to the French army and its coin municztions that a conflict near Marengo appeared at one moment inevitable. We know, however, that during the five days that have elapsed since these letters were written an entire change has taken place in the Austrian position. The invaders have with drawn all those troops which rendered a battle im minent; they have left to the French the valley of the Scrivia, which forms the eastern boundary of the battlefield of. >farengo, and which washes the walls of Tortona.;. they.are no longer occupying in vast numberssome 20 miles of the northern bank of the Po, and theyno longer appear inclined to decide the fortune of the campaign by a decisive • battle. They seem to the . distant observer to have changed their tactics altogether. They have quitted the dangerous neighbourhood of the French and the fortresses, and they have spread themselves along the line of the river Sesia. The telegrams have marked them. step by:step, first retiring from the south bank of the Po then evacuating Tortona and Voghera, then spreading themselves northwards to Vercelli, thence north again towards Gattinaro, but always on the lino of the Sesia. The places men tioned in yesterday's telegram are on the road to Gattinaro, and between that place and Vercelli. It seems that upon both.banks of this river they are throwing up defences, as though they contemplated a protracted occupation of the position they have now chosen. The river Sesia, which now marks the position of the invading army, comes down from the frontier mountains, and has its rise not far from the Simplon Pass. It crosses the plain of Piedmont at its widest breadth; and falls into the 'Po near the fortress of 'Casale. The Austrians therefore . are now in line right . across the flat country, and have their right wing resting upon the foot of the Alps, and their left on the Po, close to the fortified city which they were thoughtto be about to attack. • • They were face to face also with the Dora line, Which' General Della Marmara publicly declares to he the strategic line of the Sardinians. The evolutions which have thus changed the Austrian. front 'must have giving op portunities to a' dashing enemy, and reports are already rife that: Garibaldi, with his flying bands, has seized occasion to strike a blow. The Con tinental papers have reported or invented a story of an attack at• Vercelli, wherein Garibaldi and Cialdini surprised and routed the early Austrian occupants of that town and brought away 300 prisoners. This story is only not impossible, for if such a feat had been accomplished the Sardinians would have 'wrung it merrily through Europe with peals of telegraphic bells, and we should not be left to hear of:it until, after a five days' interval, it filters through.the medium of a Turin letter and a Belgian newspaper. It had been generally be lieved, but as far •as we know upon no certain au thority, that Garibaldi was in the mountains, watching the:operations of that division of Austrians which advanced . into 'the Alps, and which was ex pected to debouch upon the - - Dora line, but is now with some probability supposed to have .had no other object than to watch the Alpine passes, and to prevent the ' game :of 1800 being played over again. These fastnesses have no railways and no electric wires, and it .is not impossible that Gari baldi may have • attempted some unreported, but just rumoured, enterprise in that quarter: • What this change in the Austrian front may mean we no longer, pretend to guess, except that it, manifests a sudden disinclination for the immediate neighbourhood of the French, and an intention of making theMselves as safe as possible at a distance from Alessandria. It may be a choice of battle• field and a ohallongp to api tuliud battlo it may be a precaution until the rains have ceased and the spongy soil has drained itself dry enough for military operations and hard enough for the transport of guns ;• it may be a gathering like that of starlings at - sundown preparatory to some wheelings and whirlings abOut and then a rapid disappearance. The Sardinians who are charitable enough to-hope all things, hope for this, and expect to see their enemy evacuate their country, and retire by way of Piacenza to Mantua and.--Peschiera,leavingthe revolted Duchies to enjoy their freedom, and even the turbulent little town of Como to delight in its relief from •its Croat garrison. All is very vague guesswork as to what the future may be ; it is quite sufficiently difficult to extract, out of such materials as we have any tolerable idea of the present. We see the Austrian army stretched in line across the plain of Piedmont, but we can see no more. IMpenetrable mystery shrouds the doings that are going on in the hills that look over Genoa and-in the valley of Asti, and no pains are spared to prevent the escape of any fact which can throw light upon the intentions of the Franco- Sardinian army. We may, if we please, assuage our curiosity by the perusal of official bulletins, sometimes generally -explicit as to the presumed woes and difficulties of the Austrians; but no one can tell more than that day by day, and hour- by hour, the migrations of troops from France to Italy still goes on, and that the swelling multitude must soon burst out somewhere from beyond the narrow con fines that now constrain and coceal them... It seems impossible that the Austrians can retire with out fighting a battle, and it is equally impossible , that the French can remain much longer without striking a blow at them. The plain of. the Sesia offers a fair field for a fight, but the Austrians have probably made their position there, on the banks of an unfordable *river too strong to make it quite eligible to the- French. It would appear; however, from all this, that the Austrians have already as sumed a defensive position, without, so far as we know, any one aggressive operation having been made against them by the French. Eve r ythi n g continues to confirm" wh at was at the time the in. stinctive judgment of all Europe—that this inva sion was a'false movement on the part of Anstria, and an error from which she cannot extricate her , self either with honour or profit.

The fol lowing were the starters, viz.:— Mr. Cosser, Mr. Foster, and Mr. Catty. The latter had the best station. Accompanied by several club eights the start was effected. Isles took the lead, fol lowed by Foster, and a desperate race followed between these two, with alternate leads to the Point, Catty and Cosser making a pretty race. The race between Isles and Foster became so determined that they fouled three times, and the third collision having been caused by Isles, the race was decided against him. He came in first, Foster second, Cosser third. The second prize is in abeyance, the first going to Foster. Mr. Ilenty, Mr. Isles, THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.
