COURT OF EXCHEQUER. THE QUEEN T. PERHANI.-THE BUILDERS' STRIKE. 'Before the Lord Chief Baron, and Barons Bramwell and Channell.) The Lord Chief Baron this morning gave his decision in this case, which was an application made by Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., for a writ of habeas corpus to bring up the body of William Perham, who had been convicted at the Clerkenwell Police Court, under the 6th of Geo. IV., c. 129, sec. 3—the act against intimidation or obstructing persons in their work. The learned gentleman had made a similar application to the judges in the Court of queen's Bench, which had been refused. The Court held that it was not necessary for the informa tion to be in writing, and that the magistrate having heard the evidence, and agjudicated thereon, the conviction was in accordance with the terms of the act. Application refused SWINFEN V. LORD CIIELMSFORD. - RICIIITS OF COUNSEL. The arguments of Sir F. Kelly and the other learned counsel engaged in showing, cause against the rule for a new trial being concluded, Mr. Kennedy commenced his reply in support of the rule, and was proceeding when we went to press. It is not at all likely that the arguments will close to day. r COURT FOR DIVORCE AND MATRIMONIAL CAUSES. ,Before Justices Cresswell, Wightman, and Byles.) COLES V. COLES. This was the petition of Mary Ann Coles, praying. for dissolution of marriage with her husband on 'the ground of adultery, coupled with desertion and bigamy, and the re spondent entered no appearance. Mr. Field was counsel for the petitioner. The parties were married at Si. George's, Southwark, on the 9th October, 1851. They cohabited until January, 1856, with occasional separations arising from the inability of the petitioner to maintain the respondent. In the begin ning of the last mentioned month he deserted her, and in the same year was married to a female named Wood in the parish church at Leeds,with whom ho had since lived under the name of Johnson. It further appeared that since the petitioner left the respondent he had enlisted in the Scotch Fusilier Guards, in which he was at present a private. The respective marriages were proved, and the petitioner, who attended in charge of the sergeant of his regiment, was fully identified. The court decreed the dissolution of the marriage. FAULKNER V. FAULKNER AND MOORE. This was the petition oT John Joseph Faulkner, praying for the dissolution of his marriage with his wife, on the ground of her adultery with the co-respondent and other persons. The petition stated that the marriage took place in 1841, at St. Andrews Church, Holborn, and the parties lived together till 1847, when the petitioner discovered his wife's infidelity. The petitioner was a practical engineer, and it appeared that there were two children by the marriage. The court pronounced the dissolution of the marriage. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Baum Mr. Commissioner Evans.) IN ME AMISS. This bankrupt was described as of Conduit-street, Bond street, tailor, and passed his examination without oppo sition. The accounts, by Messrs. Paul and Turner, show —Debtor, £797 ; good debts, £2OO. IN It}' TEESDXLII. This bankrupt was a licensed victualler in the country, and applied for his certificate. Mr. Lawrence, for the assignees, did not oppose, but rather asked for a certificate of the second class. Ills Honour said, as no creditor opposed, the certificate would be granted. (Before Mr. Commissioner Cioulburn.) IMPORTANT QUESTION. A case was brought before the Court on a question in which an accountant had held the account books of the bankrupt, on the groußd that he lied a lien upon them for work done in endeavouring- to effect an arrangement with the creditors. An intimation having been made by the Court, that tho messenger. ought to take possession, the books were given up without prejudice. His Honour now said, that was a proper course, but he did not consider ho could settle' the question, and would like to tee it returned to the Lords Justices or the highest Court of Appeal. Ho quoted a case in point in which it was suggested by the Vice-Chancellor that the matter should be referred to a jury. Nearly similar, but not perfectly so, he thought this a case on which the opinion of the Court above should be taken. The question was whe ther a trader could place his books in the hand of an ac countant for a purpose, but being declared a bankrupt, the accountant would hold them against the assignees, except on payment of an account which they could not tax. He thought the assigndes ought to consider the course they should adopt. The case was adjourned. The Gloucester Election Commission assembled yesterday in No. 10, Committe-room, House of Comthons. After some witnesses had been examined, the Royal Com missioners announced that the inquiry would be resumed on Wednesday next at No. 8, Fludyer-street, Westminster, but on that day only pro forma business would be trans acted. Notice will be given when the examination of wit nesses will be resumed. SCULLERS' RACE BBTWEEN FINNIS AND CORBY. --Yesterday afternoon a smilers' race came off between J.

All preliminarioshaving been arranged, the men took up their positions, it being nearly high water at the time.

Several other Roman Catholics have also met and subscribed a sufficient sum to commence the building of a school in connection with the institution.—North British Daily Alfail. - - - 'BOILING A CHILD.—The Douai journals relate an extraordinary instance of ignorance in a village near that town. A physician called a few days ago to prescribe for the sick child of a peasant woman and ordered a warm bath. " What is a bath ?" said she, " Heat some water in your pot on, the fire, and put the child into it." A few mi nutes later a neighbour entered and found that the woman had put the child into the pot with the water, and had placed the little creature on the fire which she was dili gently stirring up. Of course the neighbour rescued the child from the horrible fate with which it was threatened. RAILWAY LIABILITY.—On Wednesday a ques tion of railway liability came before the Manchester County Court. The plaintiff, Mr. Burland, summoned the London and North-Western Railway Company for the sum of £1 6s. 6d. On the 31st of August, Mr. Burland booked from the London-road station, for Liverpool, at ten minutes past two. The train from this station usually meets at Ordsal lane, the Liverpool train from the Victoria station, Man chester, but on this occasion it was fifteen minutes late , and the plaintiff was disappointed of his engagement in Liverpool, and had to go into Shropshire to complete it. Tho plaintiff sued only for the additional expense, he had been compelled to undergo for his journ e y . The advocate, for the company said he had no defence, as it was a ques tion of liability, and the verdict was consequently given for the plaintiff. FRIGHTFUL FALL FROM A SKYLIGHT. —Yester day, as the female servant of Messrs. Rotten, Grant, and May, fish-salesmen, of No. 9, Billingsgate Market, was shaking a mat on the flat roof of the house, she accidentally slipped, and fell backwards through the skylight, carrying away its iron framework, and in her descent falling upon a second skylight, beneath which were fortunately some herring pads, which broke the force of the fall, otherwise she must have been killed on the spot. She was picked up insensible and taken to St. Thomas's Hospital, where it was ascertained that she had sustained compound fractures of the thigh and wrist, and several severe contusions. Her recovery is considered doubtful. MORALITY OF THE PRESS.—An exposure of the means by which some journals are kept before the public has Occurred this week in the North of England.

Meredith, a portly man, with a sun burnt countenance and largo moustache, who was described as a seaman, and was alleged to have been master of a ship and settler in Australia, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with creating a disturbance in the Black Boy public-house, Wapping, assaulting the landlord, by striking him on the back with a poker, and also assaulting Robert Moss, a police constable, 478 K. It appeared from the evidence of Moss that he was called upon by the landlord of the Black Boy to quell a disturb ance in the house. The prisoner was there conduct in, himself in a most violent manner, and the land lord, who was hurt, complained of an assault upon him. Moss first expostulated with the prisoner, who threatened and abused every body in the house, and seemed disposed to commit violence upon Moss. The constable attempted to take him into custody, on which the prisoner became frantic with rage, and swore he would annihilate the constable. The prisoner ran back into a room, snatched a poker from the fire and attempted to strike Moss with it. The blow was parried, and a severe struggle took place, in the course of which the prisoner struck the policeman and kicked him on the left leg, which disabled him for some time. Other assistance was called, and the prisoner, who plunged and kicked violently, was after some trouble consigned to a police-station cell. The prisoner threw off his coat, and, pointing to his torn shirt-sleeves and his bruised arms, said in a boisterous manner, "This is the Way I was served. I was dragged out of my own room and ill-used. I did not take the poker, sir, but I said, if anyone came into my room where r had a lot of money, I would kill them. Moss said the landlord of the Black Boy said he knew nothing of the prisoner, and he had no business in the room at all. The policeman thou: at the request of the magistrate bared his left leg. It was blackened from a recent kick. Mr. Selfe—Do you see that ? The policeman has re ceived a terrible kick. _ _ Vv The prisoner (loudly)—I did not kick him, sir. I have been violently ill-used. Mr Selfe—You are a Welshman, are you not ? The prisoner —Yes, sir. I am an ancient Briton. I belong to the ancient race. The Meredith:3 have been a famous people. Mr. Selfe—You are mistaken in supposing that the police man had no right to enter the house when called upon by the landlord. If the police had heard murder called, and violence being used, he was justified in his interference. The prisoner loudly, and beating the top of the desk with his fist, " By the God that mad: me, I never used any vio lence." Let me have justice. I never touched that raan, I swear it by the living God that made me. Two men were hero once for assaulting me and breaking my arm. You then did me justice, and I hope you will do it to me now. Mr. Sslfe—l will do you justice. It is quite clear you kicked the policeman, and you seem to be notorious for getting into rows. I fine you 20s: The prisoner took a sovereign from his pocket, flung it with great violence on the table of the Court, and said, there, Goyernor, take your money. I have plenty. Mr. Selfe—lf you aro brought hero again, I will send you to prison. 1111 S DAY'S MARIC.ETS. THIRD EDITIO►N. SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock. LONDON GAZETTE-(THIS EVENING). FOREIGN-OFFICE, Nov. 24.

The quantity of English wheat received fresh up to-day was very limited, and the show of samples was small. Good and fine qualities were disposed of at Monday's currency. In other kinds the transactions were limited ; nevertheless, previous rates were supported. Upwards of 11,000 qrs. of foreign wheat having come fresh to hand the supply was rather on the increase. Mil lers purchased cautiously, yet holders were firm at full quotations. There was a slight improvement in the inquiry for float ing cargoes off Falmouth, but no change took place in prices. We had a steady though not very active demand for most kinds of barley at full prices. Fine malt moved off steadily at fully previous rates, but inferior parcels were a dull inquiry. For oats the demand was in a sluggish state, and damp corn was the turn in favour of buyers. Both beans and peas were in request, but not dearer. About an average business was doing in flour, at full prices. ' ARRIVALS THIS WEEK Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats. Flour.

(Fron the Journal of Gas Lighting, 4-e., Nor. 22, 1859.) The standards which the Treasury were required to provide by the third section of Lord Redesdale's " Act for regulating measures used in the sales of gas," have been duly deposited in the office of the Comptroller of the Exchequer, No. 6, Old Palace Yard, Westminster. They comprise a weight of 62-321114. avoirdupois ; a bottle containing that weight of distilled water at a temperature of 62 deg. Fahr., and a barometric pressure of 30 inches ; and a King's cubic foot transferrer. The whole have been prepared under the direction of and verified by the Astronomer Royal, assisted by Pro 4!ssor W. Miller, of Cambridge. The weight is - of brass, and has made by Mr. L. Oertling, the well known balance-maker, of Store-street, Bedford square. The cubic foot bottle is a copper cylinder with conical ends terminating in tubes, the bottom one being closed by a cock, and the upper one be ing open. Ithas been manufactured by Messrs. Ladd and Co., of the Old Jury, the hydrometer-makers to the Excise ; and the cube feet transferrer has been made by Messrs. Crosley and Co., of the Southwark Bridge-road. It does not appear to be considered necessary at present to prepare any standard multi ples of decimals of the cubic foot measure, but gas companies and otheis can have the indices of their own testing gasholders adjusted to The Exchequer standard, or they can procure duplicates of the cubic foot transferrer, and adjust the indices themselves. They may, by adopt ing either of these courses, ascertain at once what meters do and what do not comply with the tests prescribed by the Act, and thus mitigate to some extent the inconveniences to which the further delay . in the appointment of inspectors under the Act is now subjecting them. MURDER ON THE HIGII SEAS. Yesterday, Francis Boland, a seaman, aged 48, was brought up at the Thames police-court, charged with the wilful murder of Edward Hyland, an other saman, on the high seas, on thellth of July last. Mr. Y: C. Evans, superintendent of the Thames police, said the depositions in thii case had been taken by the British Consul at Lagos, on the West Coast of Africa, and by him transmitted to the Board of Trade. The ship Medina, in which the alleged murder was committed, arrived with the witnesses in the St. Katharine Dock on Wednes day afternoon, and, he caused the prisoner to be ar rested, and ordered the attendance of the witnesses who came home in the Medina. The British Consul had sent home in the same versel a black man, who was not one of the crew, but a labourer on board, and he would give evidence of the transaction. Mr. Evans handed in the papers connected with the case, and the investigation, which extended until a late hour, was proceeded with. Mr. George Mortimer Farrow, chief mate of the Medina on her late voyage to Africa and back, said the deceased Hyland was an able seaman on board. On the 11th of July the ship was at anchor in Lagos Roads. The captain was absent on sire, and the witness had the command of the vessel. Ile was taken ill two or three days before the transaction occurred. At eight o'clock on the even ing of the 11th of July he was about tp set the anchor watch, ar d heard a disturbance. He went on deck and was met by the cook, who said the deceased and the prisoner were fighting, and that Boland was using a knife. Witness was very ill at the time and could do nothing. The cook had just left him for the purpose of going to the com batants when Hylan d fell upon the deck. The cook said he was stabbed—was killed, and the blood rushed from the deceased's wounds on to the deck. He went up to the deceased, who was insensible. The prisoner came up to him, and he said to him, " You have been using a knife ; what is the cause of this ?" He believed the prisoner said he had no knife. The prisoner was partially intoxicated. Witness ordered a boat to be lowered, and sent for the doctor on board her Majesty's ship Medusa. There were three wounds inflicted on the deceased ; one of them was in the abdomen, and the bowels protruded. While the deceased was on the cabin floor the prisoner said to the surgeon of the Medusa —" All he has got was intended for me ; if ho had not taken a knife to me I would not have taken one to him ; he has cut me on the head." There was not the slightest appearance of a wound on the prisoner's head. He did not find the knife with which the wounds were inflicted. In answer to questions by Mr. Selfe, the witness said the crew bad been plundering the ship'sstores, and that was the cause of the fatal occurrence. The seamen got at the champagne and ale. When I found the prisoner partially intoxicated after the occurrence, I asked him where he got drink from? He said, "We have been down in the hold and taken a cask of ale, and all hands will pay their share of it." In consequence of what I heard, I ordered some bottles to be passed up from the fore crstle. A man named Woodness passed up 16 bottles of ale. I asked him if there were any more, and he replied in the negative. I opened a case of champagne. There - were five bottles missing. After some further evidence, the prisoner was committed for trial on a charge of wilful murder. RACING FIXTURES FOR 1860.

They demanded an addition of abo7it 11 per cent., alleging that that was the scale paid at 131ackbi u-n. Mr. Leech said he would look into the matter, but they rt fused to wait, and quitted the mills. KEEPING APPOINMENTS.—I shall never forget a word of wholesome counsel given me by an old preacher, as I was starting in my new careel—" Billy, my son, never miss an appointment.
