After having been in delibera tion for upwards of two hours they returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff, damages £2O. His lordship asked the jury on what grounds they had come to that decison, and was informed on the case generally. His lordship told the jury the case was ono that called for substantial damages, or else the verdict ought to be the other way He wished to know whether they were of opinion that the plea of justification had been made out, or whether it had been made out only in part, and if so, what pail? Thay had beater, therefore, return and reconsider the matter. The jury were again locked up, and after an absence of over un hour returned into court, and the foreman an nounced that they found a verdict for the plaintiff on all Lie issues. Damages, .£2O. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The annual field inspection of the Royal Guards (Mue), under the command of Lieut.-Cul. Baia., was made at Windsor on Tuesday by Major- Gen. Lord GJoge Paget, K.C.8., Inspector-Gene al of Cavalry. The Penelope, armour-platei ship, will succeed the Pembroke guardship at Ilarwich. The Ilercules, Capt. Lord Gilford, and the Belle rophon, CE pt. F. M trtin, returned to Spithead from Dover yesterday afternoon. The Minotaur, armoured iron frigate, Capt. Jas. G. Goodenough, arrived at Spithead yesterday afternoon, on her return from the Baltic. As this was the first occasion of the Minotaur entering Spithead otherwise than as a flagship, salutes were exchanged between her and the flagship of the Port Admiral. The cost of the gunpowder annually burnt in honour of Admirals commanding in the home ports must be something extraordinary. It certainly appears that in the case of our naval offi cers a less expensive mode of saluting each other than blowing away punpowder would not detract in the slightest from their individual dignity, would save the nation some money, and would, at the same time, be exhibiting a due regard for sound sense in lessening a lavish adherence to a barbarous custom.

July 1; PRICE OF GOLD. The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and Vie short exchange on London is 2M. 250. per II sterling On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of 106 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold at the above price is of high r value in London than in Paris. A TERRIBLE RISK.—JERSEY, Tuesday.—Three metropolitan excursionists hired a waterman's boat in St. Helier's harbour on Sunday, and went, as was supposed, to row in the bay. They thought fit, however, to turn Noirmont's Point, and rowed about seven miles to the west. Here they were caught by one of the currents which only practised sailors understand, and carried towards the coast of Prance. They drifted about all night, and, fortunately, the weather, which has been uncertain and shifty of late, continued fine. Next day, famished and exhausted, they got towards the Jersey shore again, and landed at La Rocque in a deplorable plight, owing their lives to the exceptional forbearance of wind, wave, and current. George Jewell presided at the meeting of the Colonization Society, in Hartford, Connecticut, 'Tuesday evening, Juno 1. Its work, that of helping coloured people to go to Liberia, has been aided during the past four years by the State society with $70,000, and it has sent 2,231 negrws to Liberia in that time. The society owns a ship worth $30,000, which will carry 650 passengers, and a building in Washington worth $50,000. Among the rpeakers were Rev. Dr. Haight, Rev. Dr. 31.‘Lean, of New Jersey, Governor Jewell, and President Roberts, of Liberia (a coloured man, who has laboured 40 years in the work.) He gave a very interesting account of the successful expe riment of a Republic in Liberia, and descritod the colleges there Adis a tiourighthg condition.

The silk weavers at Leigh, in Cheshire, bare thia,*reek struck work. It appears that at the mills of Messrs. Ifart.T, where most of the bands are employed, a notice was late'y posted up, to the effect that a fine would be inflicted for irregular attendance at work. This innovation the work men resent, on the ground that, as they are paid by the piece they have a right to choose their own thee. At a meeting of the operatives connected with the diffe rent branches of the building trades in Liverpool, held on Wednesday night, it was resolvtd that a weekly levy of is. a man should be made for the purpose of ,us sting the masons in the prest nt dit-pute with their masters. The wages dispute in the cotton trade in the Oldl am dis trict is practicaly settled, the operatives at the mills in Oldham, Royton, 1104:wood, and Cicrepton accepted the 5 per cent. reduction and returned to their work. The house painters of GhtFgow, who have Loan out on strike since the Ist of lay, have agreed to rsajourn their strike until r. more COLINTLit nt retied. THE CHARGE OF LIBT,L AGA.INS7' THE " NORTH 1V IL TS ilE11.11,1)." The case of " Cadogan v. Piper," the action by the Hon. Mr. Cadogan against the proprietor t f tLe North Wilts remit!, was resumed on Thursday in the Com t of Queen's Bench. The se‘setruy of the Elect] ie Telegraph Com• . patty was called as the last witness fur the plaintiff, and he had leen in attendance each of tl.o previous days, but was not now present. After waiting for some time without his arriving, the learned judge ruled that it was unnecessary to wait any longer. Mr. Giffard, Q.C., then proceeded to address the court and jury. He called special attention to the letter of Mr. Evans, which, he said, was the first point from which they bad started. After having read the whole report of Mr. Cadogan'a evidence at the trial at the Old Bailey, he asserted that it was impossible to come to any other con clusion than that Mr. Cadcgan gave evidence at that time, the effect of which was to give an impression which he (Mr. Cadogan) knew was not true. The charge made by Mr. Evans agairst Mr. Cadogan was that he made use of the information he derived from the telegraphic messages by his position as a director cf the company for stock-jobbing purposes. The jury who tried the case in 18.57 did not know the facts which had been proved before the present jury. He asked whether anyone believed that Mr. Cadogan would be unable to remember whether he had sold the MAO on the 13th of December referred to at the trial. He also asked whether great value could be attached to Mr. Cadogan's evidence after such circum stances had cccurred. Mr. Giffard dwelt at great length on the details of the trial in 1E37 as it Lore upon those of the . present suit, and especially deprecated the line of conduct adopted by the brothers Thomas and Albert Evans. Ile strongly defended the witness Mr. Sandilands from the accusation of having committed perjury, and commented with great severity upon the whole of the treatment to which Mr. Thomas Evans had been subjected. Ile also dilated at considerable length, and in terms of the most emphatic censure, on the means which bad been taken in every direc tion by the llon. F. Cadogan to relieve him self from the more than questionable position in which he had placed himself in relation to the telegraph com pany, and also to the contractor for the refreshment department at the French Exhibition. Rela tive to the letter which was sent by Mr. Cadogan to the newspapers in explanation of his connection with the French Exhibition, be (Mr. iffard) did not hesitate to say he had suppressed a por tion of the truth, and had suggested that which was untrue, for the purpose of vindicating himself and at the same time misleading the public. The judge will sum up to-day. A large meting of grocers was held at Birming ham on Wednesday, about 400 being present, when it wits resolved to alamlon the present system of selling sugar, awl in no case to sell it at a loss, or under wholesale market •aluo. _ . .

Tint SUTHERLAND GOLDFIELDS.— A. despatch from Helmsdale, in the fforthan Ensign, about the Sutherland gold diggings, is as follows " Towards the close of last week some of the digging claims turned out very well, and a few of the lucky diggers made from 10s. to 12s. a day for a few days. This raised the ebbing spirits of moat of the men, and all hands are now working with a little more courage. Most of the old claims are running out, and a general desire is expressed that a new allotment of ground should be marked off, but it is not known if this will be conceded. A few new bands are still arriving, and the number of licences issued for the month now amounts to 170. One of the Inverness jewellers visited Kildonan last week, and purchased a considerable quantity of gold at £3 10s. an ounce." INFANTLCIDE.—A shocking case of child murder has formed the subject of a coroner's inquiry at Wimborne. The mother, a single woman, named Emma Pitt, re spectably connected, was mistress at the National School, Paik Home, near Wimborne. On Tuesday she was seen to be suffering great pain, and on her going home after school hours, the suspicions of the neighbours having been aroused, a search was instituted in the school-house, and in one of the drawers in an upstairs room was found the dead body of a child. The child had been beaten on the head with a heavy flint stone, and its tongue, which was cut out at the root, was found wrapped rp in another part of the drawer. The jury returned a verdict of Wilful Murder against Emma Pitt. CURIoUS CASE OF SOMNAMBULISI4.—A curious case of animated trance or chronic somnambulism has come to public notice in Chicago. A man was observed one evening walking in a peculiarly straggling manner along Washington-street. Thinking that the man was intoxi cated, a policeman approached him, intending to send him home. When questioned by the patrolman he returned no answer, and although his eyes were open, there was a fixed, strong glare in them that alarmed the officer, and led him to believe that the man was insane, and to take him into custody. He was recognised as Joseph Ireton, a young man about 24 years of age. He was in a state of partial coma. He had been in the opera house during the - early portion of the evening, from which place Le was ejected, it being supposed he was drunk. The next morning he was found to be in the same condition as upon the previous night, and the city physician was summoned. The doctor seemed to be unable to de' ermine exactly %that malady, if any, the man was labouring under, and pronounced the case to be one of the strangest that he ever witnessed. When Ireton was placed in a standing posi tion in the centre of the floor, his head would drop forward slightly, and he would be to all intents sleeping soundl: - . He was placed in several other attitudes, tl e result being precisely the same. He would allow the lids of his eyes to be opened and closed by the fingers of another party with out giving any signs of feeling, and the lids would remain in the position in which they were placed. All endeavours to make him talk or eat anything were perfectly futile, sleeping appearing to be the only thing that 110 WU capable .444ktfil TELEGRAPH COMPANIES. 10 Angio-Ameffcan 'Pei, lint all 24 24 28j 1 10 Anglo Mediter Te1.,1ina.... 10 131 14} at Atlantic Telegraph lO 21 1:3 at Do. 8 per cent. lOO 63 73 7J 67 at B. and I.

Lord REDESDALE gave notice that, in committee on this bill, an amendment would bo moved respecting the Irish bishops. He had considered the clauses of the bill relating to the seats of the Irish bishops, and considering them a breach of the privileges of the house, he should move that the Irish bishops do retaia their seats in their lordships' l o use for life. RELIGIOUS, &c., SOCIETIES BILL. Lord 110111LLY moved that the house go into commit teo on this bill, the object of which was to improve the ad min•tration of religious and educational societies, by giv ing them powers, under certain restrictions, of incorpora tion. Tho LORD CHANCELLOR oppo ed the bill as R went too far, and would allow designing persons to pa rado themselves before the public as incorporated by act of Parl'anrtnt. After a few words from Lord CAIRNS, the bill was with drawn. COMMITTEES. The Ecclesiastical Delapidations Bill, the Poor Relief (Ireland) Act Amendment Bill, and the Inatn Lands Bill passed through committee. DIPLOMATIO SALARIES BILL. On the motion of the Earl of CLA.RENDUN this bill was read a second time. Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—This DAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at 2 o'clock. THE REVIEW AT WINDSOR. Colonel FRENCH asked what arrangement had been made for the accommodation of the members of the House of 'Jommons at the review which was to take place to morrow before har Majesty and his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt at Windsor. Mr. AYRTON, in the absence of the Commissioner of Works, said the authority of the commissicsier did not extend to the Great Park at Windsor, which was the pro perty of her Majesty, and was udder the care of the ranger, and the arrangements therefore would taken charge cf by the Commissioner of Wood ;and Forests. TILE BANKRUPrOY BILL. The house then went into committee on the Bankruptcy Bill, and pr'ceoded with the amendments to the remain ing clauses, which occupied the remainder of the sittiug. HOUSE OF COMNIONS.-LAST EVENING. THE MORTALITY AT BARKING. Mr. BRUCE, in reply to Mr. Eastwick, said there was no intimation that any assistance was required by Sir H. Rawlinson, who was at present engagrd to ascertain the causes of the mortality at Barking and as to the chemical state of the water in the adjoining creek. If a medical inquiry was desired the inhabitants could communicate with the Home-office, when the matter would at 01108 be at tended to ; but it. did not appear at all necessary that a legal assessor should be appointed. THE EXPLOSION AT HOUNSLOW. Mr. BRUCE, in reply to Viscount Enfield, said there was no permanent inspector of gunpowder works, but where any demand was made a competent person was at once sent to make the inspection. About three years ago an inspection was uncle of the works at Hounslow, and everything as far as safety was concerned was considered highly satisfactory. The cause of the explosion, as far as it could at present be ascertained, as there had been no verdict yet returned of the inquest, was that it had been occasioned by some accident to the machinery. There did not appear to be any reason for the apprehension of danger on the part of those per sons living in the vicinity of the works. There had been no evasion of the precautions laid down in the Gunpowder Act, neither was there any neg'ect on the part of the local authorities. THE DUBLIN FREEMEN'S DISFRANCHISEMENT B ILL. Sir G. GREY, in reply to Mr. Collins, said ho would fix the second reading of this bill for Monday next, with a view of their seeing if some specified time could not then be fixed for proceeding with the bill. PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS . (SCOTLAND) BILL. Mr. GLADSTONE, in reply to Sir 11. Auetruther, said there was every desire to proceed with this bill, but a postponement of its consideration Was necessary for a short time, but he hyped it would become law during the present session. THE REVIEW AT WINDSOR. Colonel FRENCH said a grand review was to take place iu Windsor Great Park before his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt on S aurday next, and as it was to be given on a very extensive se de he wished to know whether any arrangements had been made for the con veniet ce of the inentbms of the House of Commons. Mr. LAYA.RD sa d as no notice hat beon given of the question he could not give the gallant member an answer. (oh, oh.) ASSESSED RATES BIL L. The house then went iuto committee on this bill, when Mr. V. 11A1tCOUR r proceeded to move his amendment clause 4, the object of which was to give the occupier the p:ivi!eg,e of tha municipal and Parlia mentary ft/tin:his?, notwithstanding that the owner had made provision for the paym tit cf the rates. He said lion. members might s what tl►ey pleased, the truth was that the present bill was in fact a now reform bill which had become necessary in consequence of the blunders con tained in the act passed lust year. Mr. GOSCHEN pointed out that the lion. and learned member was acting upon a most erroneous assumption, for the Government would certainly have been open to his weighty indictment if they had overlooked this point. The bill was not a new Reform Bill, and its collect was simply, as the Government had pledged itself, to redress au ad mitted grievance without raising up political questions. The amendment was negatived by a mni)rity of 291 to 42. Several other clauses relating to notices, proof of rates, and other matters of procedure having been agreed to, the bill passed through committee. The report of the Civil Offices (Pensions) Bill, after a pertinacious but ineffectual opposition from Mr. Fawcett, was agreed to. Several other bills were also advanced a stage, and the house adjourned. TilE BOMBAY MAIL. SUEZ, June 25.
