This was an appeal from a decree of the Master of the Rolls dismissing the plaintiff's bill. The suit was instituted by Emma Christian Crouch, by her next friend, against her husband, Charles Richmond Crouch, to recover the arrears of an annuity of £6O given to the plaintiff by indenture of settlement, dated Dec. 31, 1850. In March Mrs. Crouch separated from her husband. In the month of August, 1848, the husband agreed to make a settlement of £6O a year in favour of the wife, but no deed was executed at the time. After certain legal proceedings against Mr, Crouch and a reference to arbitra tion, he executed two deeds, which gave rise to the present suit. As to the first deed of separation it was provided ' that Mrs. Crouch, so long as she remained separate from her husband, was to have the custody of her two children. The deed contained a proviso that the same should become void if the husband and wife should at any time thereafter by mutual consent come together and cohabit as man and wife ; and by the second an annuity of £6O was given to the plaintiff, and after her decease an annuity of £5O to the two children—the same to be a charge on Mr. Crouch's pro perty. Mrs. Crouch now claimed the original annuity, with arrears. An agreement was made in April, 1852, by which Mrs. Crouch agreed to take £3O a year in lieu of the original annuity of £6O. Mrs. Crouch now claimed the original annuity, with arrears. It appeared from the evidence that she was leading a very dissolute life, which she did not deny; and also that after the deed of separation was exe cuted she and her husband cohabited together. The Master of the Rolls held that such a deed must be sustained or fall altogether. The Lord Chancellor said—The question in this case arises under the deed of settlement of 31st December, 1850, by which Charles Richard Crouch gave an annuity of £6O to his wife Emma Christian Crouch, out of certain free hold, copyhold, and leasehold property belonging to him under the will of his father. His lordship considered this was an absolute deed, not affected by the subsequent volun tary deed of separation, nor by anything that took place under it, and that the plaintiff, Mrs. Crouch, was entitled to the payment of this annuity of £6O, and also the arrears, whether she educates and maintains the children or not, and declared accordingly. His Lordship allowed - the appeal. Costs of all parties to be paid out of the estate. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. SPOILT FOR THE DERBY.—John Kennard was placed at the bar, before Mr. Bingham, charged with stealing a pork pie, under the following circumstances : It appeared from the evidence adduced, that at about half past two this morning the prisoner, with several companions, both male and female, went into Mr. Turner's House, a licensed victuallers, 162, Oxford-street, and called for some gin and peppermint. Shortly after they had been supplied with this, the barman heard the glass which covered a pork pie lifted from the counter, and, on looking round, saw the pie in the prisoner's hand. Upon being taxed with the theft he indignantly denied any intention of stealing it, and offered to pay for it, but, upon being searched, no money was found upon him. Prisoner, in reply to the charge, said he had had the mis fortune to fall into bad company. He denied any intention of stealing, the pie, which he said, was handed to him by one of the " ladies " in front of the bar. Instead of being there (in the dock), he ought to be ill the races, as a relation of his, named Green, a rider in the races, had sent him a let ter, saying that if he could manage to come down he would lend him some money to go on with, as he was out of work. Mr. Bingham said he would spoil him from going to the " Derby" to-day by ordering him to pay a fine of 205., or, in default, 14 days' imprisonment. PROVIDENT CLERKS' BENEVOLENT 1 UND. An election of six more annuitants upon this fund took place yesterday at the office of the Provident Clerks' Asso ciation, 15, Moorgate-street, when one clerk and five widows were elected to annuities varying from £l5 to £3O each. There is, perhaps, no benevolent institution in London which has achieved so much good in proportion to its means as the Provident Clerks' Benevolent Fund. It has been the means of relieving many cases of distress and of providing for the declining age of some, and the widowed and helpless condition of others. In this benevolent pur suit it has now been engaged for many years, and already annuitants absorbing fully £l,OOO a -year are placed upon its books, while, as an encouragement to those who are eli gible for its benefits, we are enabled to record that every elei 7,7 who has presented himself for an annuity has been elected, the appointment on the present occasion having been made without a contest. This is the more creditable to the energy of the management, as the cost of membership is so small as to bo almost nominal. It wants, however, but a little further extension of the sympathy manifested by the em ployers of clerks, and by the mercantile and commercial classes generally, -to render the boon of an annuity a cer tainty to every applicant for many years to come. It is not too much to ask that every one in this great city, interested in this institution (and who is there in the great commercial metropolis not interested in its well being ?), should contribute a trifle annually to its funds. Considering the class of society to which the clerks belong, the necessity which exists for their maintaining a respect able exterior, and the too often insufficient remuneration awarded to their services, this institution may be said to possess peculiar claims to sympathy and support, more especially as its benefits are restricted to those whose pru dence and self-denial has led them, at their own cost, to become members. The chair yesterday was taken by Richard Henry Jones, Esq., Chairman of the Board, who addressed a few observations to the members assembled, pointing out the duty which devolved upon them of promoting, by every means in their power, the well-being of the Fund, and the advantages they themselves would reap from their lending it their best efforts. The poll was then formally opened, and was closed ai three o'clock, when the following were found to be elected viz. : James Grint, to an annuity of .. £3O Cecilia A. Barrett „ .. 15 Ann Ady .. 15 Emma M. Costa 15 Mary J. Drower „ .. 15 Ann Harris „ .. 15 The result was received with much satisfaction, and a few appropriate words were addressed by the chairman to the successful candidates and others present, calling upon them to make known the benefits of the fund, and thereby in crease its power of doing good. An unanimous vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman and to the much-esteemed Treasurer, John Abel Smith, Esq., who was present dur ing a part of the proceedings, and the meeting then ter nunated.

Their lordships met at two o'clock. The Royal Commissioners having taken their seats in front of the throne, The LORD CHANCELLOR ordered the Usher of the Black Rod to summon the members of the 1 House of Commons to attend at the bar. 2 In a few minutes afterwards Mr. John Evelyn 3 Denison, attended by his mover and seconder, Mr. Wilson Patten and Sir F. Baring, and attended by a goodly number of members of the House of 1 Commons (considering it being the Derby day) 2 appeared at the bar. 3 Mr. J. E. DENISON then addressed their lord ships, saying —In obedience to the commands of her Majesty, the House of Commons have proceeded, in I exercise of their undoubted right and privilege, to the 3 election of their Speaker, and I have to acquaint your lordships that, however unworthy of it, I am the object of their choice, and I, with all humility, have now to ask her Majesty's most gracious approbation of that choice. The LORD CHANCELLOR said—Mr. John Evelyn Denison, we have the command of her Majesty to assure you that her Majesty is so fully sensible of your zeal for the public good and your sufficiency to discharge the arduous duties to which you have been elected by the members of the House of Commons, that she fully approves and confirms you their Speaker. The SPEAKER—My lords, with the most profound gratitude and respect I submit myself to her Majesty's commands, and it now becomes my duty in the name, and for and on behalf of the Commons of England, to lay claim, by hum ble petition, to the free exercise of all those ancient and undoubted rights, immu nities and privileges —more especially those of freedom from arrest and molestation for them selves and servants—free access to her Majesty when occasion may require, and that her Majesty may be graciously pleased to put the most favour able construction on all their proceedings and actions, and for myself, my lords, I have to entreat that if any errors should be committed, they may be attributed to me, and not to her Majesty's faithful Commons. The LORD CHANCELLOR—Mr. Speaker, we have it further in command from her Majesty to assure you that her Majesty most readily confirms all the rights and privileges of her faithful Com mons which have ever been granted by her Ma jesty's Royal predecessors; and with respect to yourself, sir, although her Majesty is sensible that you stand in no need of such an assurance, her Majesty will ever put the most favourable con struction upon all your words and actions. The SPEAKER then bowed to the Lords Commis sioners, and retired from the bar. The LORDS COMMISSIONERS then bowed to eae other and retired. The LORD CHANCELLOR, having divested him self of his robes as a Lord Commissioner, shortly afterwards re-entered the House and took his seat on the woolsack. The swearing in of peers was then proceeded with and continued for a short time, when their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMAIONS.—(Tms DAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at the Clerks' table shortly before two o'clock. The right hon. gentle man did not appear in full official costume. The mace was to-day laid on the table, and not in front of it, the form observed yesterday. The Usher or the Black Rod entered the House shortly after two o'clock, and, addressing the Speaker, said the Lords Commissioners desired the immediate attendance of the House in the 'louse of Peers. . The SPEAKER then proceeded to the House of Locds accompanied by most of the mem bers present. In about ten minutes he (returned, and having taken the chair 7 :aid— I have to state that I have been this day to the House of Peers, where I communicated to the Peers forming her Majesty's Commission that the house had proceeded to the election of a Speaker, and that its choice had fallen upon me. My Lords' Commissioners, on behalf of her Majesty, have confirmed the choice, and also her Majesty's most gracious approval. I, therefore, on behalf of this house, laid claim to the ancient and undoubted privileges heretofore enjoyed by this house; especially the privilege of freedom from arrest for ourselves and our servants—the freedom of de bate—free access to her Majesty at all rea sonable times when we desire it—aid also that her Majesty would put the most favourable con struction upon our words and actions, and my Lords Commissioners were authorised by her Majesty to concede those privileges to the house. Having made this communication to the house, I hope hon. members will allow me to take this oppor tunity of again offering them my sincere and grateful acknowledgments for the high and honourable position in which they have placed me, and to invite them to aid me by their counsel and support in maintaining the authority of the chair. My next duty is to subscribe to the oaths. The oaths having been administered, the right hon. gentleman resumed the chair. The SPEAKER than informed the house that the members would be sworn in in the alphabetical order of the counties. The CLERIC having road over the names of the counties, the swearing•in of members was proceeded with, and continued up to the hour of adjourn ment. THE BAA T KRUP2:VY BILL. A meeting of the general committee of mercan tile legislation of the National Association for the Promotion of Social Science was held at Birming ham yesterday (Tuesday), in order " that such alterations in the Bankruptcy , Bill as may be agreed upon may be incorporated with the bill before it is again introduced, and to make arrangements for a vigorous support of the measure in the next session of Parliament." The attendance included Mr. G. Hastings, who presided ; Mr. Samuel Morley and Mr. Andrew Edgar, of London ; Mr. Heath, of Liverpool ; Mr. Johnson, of Leeds ; Mr. Hewett, of Sheffield ; Mr. Bruton, of Bristol ; and Mr. Van Wart, Mr. Samp son S. Lloyd, Mr. A. Ryland, and Mr. Browett, of the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce. The CHAIRMAN, in introducing the business, explained the present state in which the measure now stood. The bill, as agreed upon by the mer cantile community, was introduced by Lord John Russell in the late parliament, and was passed through a second reading, when some amend ments were proposed by Mr. Morley and a com mittee of London merchants. These alterations merely related to some of the details of the mea sure, more particularly relating to the election of the trustees, which, under the bill was vested in the general body of creditors, while the amend ment proposed to vest the appointment in the inspectors, who would be elected by the creditors. By this means it was anticipated that much trouble and annoyance to creditors from persons canvassing for office would be avoided, while the interest of the estate would not be jeopardised. It was thought desirable, Parliament having been dissolved, and as the bill would have to be again s e introduced into po Parliament, that a general meeting of the com mittee should be called to consider thiooprorate r d ed amen dments, and, if approved o f, to n pro them with the bill, which might then bee or a without the necessity of its being referred to a select committee. Mr. Hastings noticed some of the ob jections which had been urged against the bill by the officials of the present qourts ; amongst others, the statement that the passing of the bill would entail an expense upon the country of £lOO,OOO per annum, and would swe ep away the present fund of £1,500,000, now standi ng in the - name of the Ac countant-General in Bankruptc This sum, which Mr. Hastings rema r k e d was the: accumulation of unclaimed divi dends, would still remain under another name, and the interest be applied, as at present, in the payment of the salaries of the judges of the court ; so that the statement about the addi tional expense that would be thrown upon the State was quite fallacious. Mr. MORLEY having at some length explained the nature of the proposed alterations a lengthened debate ensued, and it was ultimately resolved that the amendment should be incorporated in the bill which should be re-introduced into Parliament; and a sub-committee was appointed to take steps for obtaining the vigorous support, of the various Chambers of Commerce to the measure.

The superior subscription at 10fr. The deposit of a tenth to be paid in nine days, at Paris and in the departments, is more than two hundred and fifty-one millions (250,955,977fr.)t I immediately adopted the necessary measures for restoring to circulation as soon as possible that portion of this sum which has to be returned to the public. The reimbursements made at Paris amount already to upwards of seventy-three millions. The data required to serve as a basis for the liquidation being now possessed by the administra tion, this intricate labour will be carried on with the greatest activity. I have the honour of submitting for your Ma jesty's approbation the principles in accordance with which the distribution will have to be made. The loan authorised by the law of the 2d of May instant comprises a principal sum of 500 millions and a supplement of 20 millions, intended to facili tate the liquidation and cover the expenses of dis count. 107,043,166 On this sum of 520 millions we have first of all to strike off 1. The amount of the 10-franc subscriptions that are irreducible. 2. The capital of the Rentes due to the subscribers of 20, 30, 40, and 50 francs, who, by means of the minimum of 10 francs of Rentes established by the decree of the 3d inst., will receive more than their proportional quota. These two sums added together amount to 116,561,956 f. The surplus, or 2,393,997,820 f., will have to be, as far as it is practicable, distributed at the rate of a franc to the mark amongst all the other subscribers. The mathematical share accruing to each would be 170 f. 4c. per cent. of the sum subscribed. But the rules that regulat the ledger of the pub lic debt, and the principles laid down by the above mentioned Ministerial decree ‘that determines the conditions of the loan, would not permit me to follow out so strict a calculatiOn. As in the pre vious loans, the liquidation having to be made by multiples of 10 francs for the discountable rentes, and by multiples of 100 francs for the other category, certain subscribers will recei ve a li tt l e more, and others a little less than the nominal quota. From all these differenc es a disposable balance of no great importance will result. From motives of equity I think this remanet ought to be assigned to the small subscribers of 70, 80, 140, 200, 260, 320, and 380 francs, they being least favoured by the reduction scale. Should the Emperor accept these propositions I beg his Majesty th at he will deign toinvest with his approbation the present report. I am, with the most. profound respect, sire, your Majesty's most humble, obedient, and faithful subject, Approved P. MAGNE. NAPOLEON. * Loan of 250 millions . Loan of 500 millions .

It appeared from the examination of several witnesses that the deceased was a tailor and draper, and cairied on his business at the West •end of the town. He had lately been paying his addresses to a young lady residing in Lamb's Conduit-street, and it appeared that every preparation was made for their nuptials, when she informed him that she had alte re d h er min d , th at s h e did no t intend to eneteL to the marriage state, an d s h e was g oing with some friends Australia. The intelligence evidently eveningvidently of Tuesday,sliocke shocked the the . de ceased most severely. On h 24th ult , he had his l as t interview with his " betrothed," when he was deeply affected, and implored her in the most affecting manner to alterhermind, and not go to Australia. She, however, stated that every arrangement was made, and that she must go. From this time a most decided change took place, the unhappy young man became dis tracted, and in company with his friends on the subse quent day said " that he had received his death blow —that his love was unbounded for the young lady, and that he would die for her." About ten o'clock on Tuesday night last Edward Parish, 3g E, was on duty in Lamb's Con duit-street, when he heard the report of a pistol, and on going to the spot he found the deceased on the pavement ; a pistol was near him—he was conveyed to a surgeon's, and subsequently removed in a cab to the above institution. Mr. Ashton, the house surgeon, who attended the deceased on admission, proved that death was caused by the pistol shot through the lungs. The jury returned a verdict that deceased committed the act while under temporary mental derangement ORATIONS BY M.R. T. 214450 N JONES.

Several passages were eloquent and forcible, and the general tenour of the oration showed extensive reading and reflection. He briefly enumerated the chief incidents in Burke's political career, his acquaintance with Fox, John son, Garrick, and the other celebrities of his time ; his vehement defence of the American colonists against the reckless policy of Lord North ; his speeches on Indian questions, his impeachment of Warren Hastings ; his reflections on the French Revolution, and his policy on that occasion, con cluding the lecture with some remarks on the present state of Europe. Mr. Jones's excellent memory enabled him to quote several passages from Burke's speeches, many of which produced great effect, and his oration throughout was listened to with marked attention, and frequently applauded. In speaking of Burke's junction with the Rocking ham ministry, and his exclusion from the cabinet, he remarked that the real reason for his ignominious position was not to be found in the professed excuses of Lord Rockingham and Mr. Fox, but in the fact that he did not belong to any family of territorial dignity or political influence—an allu sion to the well-known tendency of Whig states men which was loudly applauded. In treating of the trial of Hastings, the speaker had a difficult task to avoid comparison with Macaulay's eloquent description. In alluding to Burke's reflections on the French Revolution he remarked that he thought his views on that subject entirely mistaken, as' most Englishmen did at the present day. In his con cluding observations on the present state of affairs on the continent, Mr. Mason Jones strongly upheld the policy of neutrality. and the loud applause of his audience testified that they shared his opinion. The room was crowded, and the audience appeared to be highly gratified by the discourse. On Satur day, June 4th, and on Friday, June 10th, Mr. Mason Jones will give his two concluding orations on Sheridan and Curran. Those who have not yet heard him should take those opportunities of judging of an eloquence which is entirely natural, and which, with experience and cultivation, pro mises future distinction. TILE FRENCH LOAN.-REPORT TO • THE EMPEROR. The Moniteur of yesterday contains the follow ing:— PARIS, May 28. SIRE,—The administration has just received the Last communication touching the loan of 500 millions. I hasten, as in duty bound, to render an account`to your Majesty of the final result of the subscription, and make known to the public the bases upon which the rentes that have to he sub s2ribed in the ledger of the national debt will be distributed amongst the subscribers. On the day after the closing of the operation, when I had the honour of addressing my first report to your Majesty, the returns from the departments had only partially arrived. I could then only indicate, as 1 took care to announce, temporary estimates, which have been since found to be far below the reality, and are now completely ascertained. As the subscription approached its term, the desire of the public assumed more and more the nature of a patriotic demonstration. The annexed list, which states for each department the exact number of the subscribers and the amount of the capital subscribed, is an eloquent testimony to the sentiments of confidence and devotedness that have impelled the people to enter the subscription offices ; I have much happiness in laying it before your Majesty. According to this list the number of persons who took part in the subscription by paying into the receiving offices of the State the earnest of one tenth, amounts to nearly seven hundred thousand (690,190). In itself alone this total surpasses by more than a hundred thousand share-takers that of all the subscribers to the three first loans taken together.* I need not point out the full importance of this in a political and financial point of view. It is thus divided : At Paris In the departments 445,165 The sum subscribed is above two milliards five hundred millions ( 2 , 50 9,559,776 fr.) ; it is equal to more than five times the sum demanded. Paris has supplied The departments A HUNDRED 70 ONE ON LORD DERBY. (From. the Freeman.) LORD DERBY'S BETTING-BOOK. In these days of mesmerism and clairvoyance no one need ask how we saw and heard Lord Derby soliloquising with his betting-book in his hand, which, in his most private apartment, he had just drawn forth from his pocket, to console himself after having had to make all pleasant with a neutrality deputation—with those plebeian cits who have no sympathy with the majesty and gentleness of Austria, who would not even draw a cheque of fifty pounds to save her from subsidence in Austria Proper. No .v, said his lordship to himielf, his little book, and the four walls —now then, is the time to make up for all I lost on Toxopholite last year. A pretty: ,-,. round sum I ha'd to make good for backing him: !: on the Derby; this time I'll bet, not for the Derby, but for Derby himself. Yes, yes, the master will , do better than his horse. If I can't win the Derby, • I say, Derby shall win. Ha capital. But what •: shall the odds be, ten to one, or a hundred to one? Let me see, there can surely be no doubt that I am safe to win. Twenty-six seats I know I have gained—let them get over that. Fifty-two on a. , division, my L or d s P a l me r s ton an d R ussell! what , say you to that? Yon crammed the House to the uttermost, you inflicted a majority of forty votes, save one, upon me, and you see what you have got by it—gained a loss of sixteen votes! My lords and gentlemen, you of the Whigs I mean, I shall beat you by much more than half a neck or so, I shall win in a canter. I really must say a hundred to one on Derby and Dizzy. [Servant enters.]— "Please, my lord, did you call me ?" " Oh, no, John; this gout is, is—very plaguing. J o h n , w should not swear ; but bad as it is, I was only laughing to myself to think how I have dished the " Whigs. I don't tell you, John, not to let out what you found your master laughing at ; it may be useful at Chesham-place or the Reform Club ; and, perhaps, at Cambridge House, too. You'll meet some of the servants soon, no doubt." "I understand, my lord, —l'll tell them all not (o repeat what I ought not to have told them, and then all the Clubs, and The Morning Post, too, will soon know of it." [Exit John.] A clever fellow that! something will surely turn up, before we are turned down, for him. Derby and Dizzy, I was saying —why, yes. What an odd race this‘is. Hem ! A pair of us on both sides. Derby and Dizzy, little Johnny and Pam. Odd that ! Who can say which is first—whether 'tis Dizzy and I, or, as Old Wolsey would have said, I and Dizzy ? Well, any how, I can 't w i n unless Diz z y and I reach the post together, nor can the Rthers unless they both are in first ha, ha! rich, that. But then my pair are a pair. We never try to get ahead of each other. He is best pleased to be first in his way and 3 in mine. But those two Whig jades—if one sees the other ahead he would rather lay hold of his tail and pull him back if he could, so jealous is one lest the other should be nominally first. Blockheads ! Why Russell and Palmerston must both be really in any Cabinet they were both in, just as I and my pair; I hope they won't see what fools they are before the grouse wants them, and then we are all safe enough till 1860. Yes, I think I'm safe with a hundred to one for Derby and Dizzy against Russell and Palmerston. [Takes up " The Morning Post" of Monday.) Oh, fudge—" no schism in the Liberal camp " isn't there ? " The assertion of irreconcilable differences or personal rivalry between the two is a pure myth." Well, The Post ought to know. It was no myth, however, that Lord John turned Lord Palmerston out in 1851 for acting too in depez dently (I keep Malmesbury in better order), and Palmerston paid Lord John out the next year; and then that Vienna business ;—no, these are not myths. "No reason to doubt that, when_Prcsign" —yes, when I do—first catch your hare—" I shall advise her Majesty to send for Lord Palmerston"-- yes, will I—" and if the Queen should say she would rather have Lord John, the old Foreign Secretary, who has so willingly assisted so many Administrations, would again place himself at the disposal of his friend.' Friend !—hem ; well. The Post should know.• " Assisted so many Administrations." Ah, well, that's true enough—a very Talleyrand—none ever came amiss to him. Yet, why wouldn't he come to me ? Only Saturday last my wife and daughter were at Lady Palmerston's reception ; yes, here it is in The Pagt! I don't., however, quite like this talked-of friend ship; they- may both join against me; but how long will they keep together ? [Very gravely and slowly]—l don't like - it, no I don't. Ten to one will be safer. [Looking at a "Morning Star."] These penny papers—wonderful things to be sure, but can't last. Bright's organ, they say, that. "I don't know that person" don't recollect that I ever saw him. Cotton lords I—hang them all ! Ah, but South Lancashire, though ! Well, some of them are patriots. And this Bright broad-brim —Dizzy says he's really a wonderful fellow, and he did us good service last session. Aye, and so he may this. He and his dont't care a rap for either of the two lords.. They want their Low Borough Franchise, the Ballot, Church-rate Abolition (hang that cool-headed son of mine), and they won't vote with the Whigs unless Messieurs lee Vigs give them some of these things. We must work that dodge, then, and we - will, too. We'll get it round to friend Broadbrim, and Roebuck, and Gibson, and the rest of them, that the country will utterly despise them if they sell themselves to the Whigs, and if they get none of their demands in return. And then if Lord John does concede any substantial Reform, why he and Palmerston will never weak together. A bright thought that, friend Bright. You and yours will certainly act independ ently. Our journals shall praise your freedom from faction, and your consistency, and your determination not to be made the football of party. Well, then—let us reckon ae- b ain. Fifty majority they pretend to make out of the returns, although I turned their majority of thirty-nine into a minority, by my twenty-six new seats, At the worst, I fancy, the Radicals will muster many more than fifty—they will walk out, if we manage them well, on a party motion ; and I shall beat 'em, that I shall.

THE WAIL Accounts from Cork speak of the melancholy and deserted state to which that harbour is reduced by the war in Italy. Instead of a great crest of masts, from which floated the flags of all nations, there is now nothing but a silent waste of waters. 1 THE O'CONNELL FAMILY.

The examination for the fellowship commences on the 15th of next month. It being the first vacancy for some years past, the competitors will be unusually numerous. At present no less than nine candidates are in the field, but it is probable that this number will be diminished when the ex amination day arrives. CALEDONIAN AND CRINAN CAN AL.--A tourist who has taken the field somewhat earlier than usual informs us that, notwithstanding the recent disaster at the Crinan Canal, the communication along that line known as the Great Glen of Scotland continues uninterrupted. The eight or nine miles of the Crinan Canal are, indeed, wholly dry. strewn with enormous boulders, fragments of rock, wood, sand, an d other debris of the flood, but parallel witli the bed of the canal runs a good highland roan, and omni buses have been placed on it, conveying passengers from one steamer to another with expedition and ss.fety.
