Mrs. Boynton (the first portion of whose evidence appeared in The Sun of yesterday), said—On one occasion, at Nice, an her asking the respondent for some money, he boxed her ears and shook her vio lently, and then locked her up in a dark bedroom. She was in the family way at the time. He left her locked up until the landlady heard her crying and came and opened the door. On their return from abroad, in 1851, they went to Notting-hill, and stayed at Mrs. Hodges' until after witness's confinement. She intreated her husband to re main with her about this time ; but the day before her confinement he left and went to the York races. He was af - er werds telegraphed for, and re turned for a week, when he again went off to some races, and refused to be at the christening. He subsequently proposed that she shou!d take up her residence at the lodge gate of his father's house. She refused to go to the lodge, and remained at her mother's. He stayed away from her nearly all the winter. He came up in 1852, when dividend time arrived, and took her to Cheltenham. While at the George Hotel there she had occasion to ask him for some money. He gave her a cheque, which she sent up to Capt. Hodges to get cashed ; but the cheque came back, and when she reproached him with deceiving her he became extremely angry, and struck her violently on the head. It was avery heavy blow, which eauced her comb to break. They came up to London in the spring, and he after wards took a furnished cottage at Beverley. They resided there from the summer until the ensuing spring of 1853. He never introduced her to any society at Beverley, and he was generally out shooting and hunting. He only once brought home a person to dine. The party was a very low per son, and in consequence of his coarse conversation she was forced to leave the room. While living there, a communication was made to her by a ser vant. The communication was about a person named Sarah White. They left Beverley in the spring of 1853, and hired a house iu Cambridge street, Hyde-park. Sir H. Boynton having died, they went to Burton Agnes in consequence, and while there, her mother, Mrs. Hodges died. They came up to London for the funeral, but Capt. Boynton left before the funeral took place. Shortly after this her husband rejoined the army. He joined the 17th Lan cers in the spring of 1855, and went to the Crimea with the regiment. Upon his coming back ill, at the end of 1855, she met him at Portsmouth. They lived together until he joined his regiment in the summer of 1856, in Ireland. She afterwards and they went t o D u bli n , w h ere she h i m, six months with ou t an y soc i e ty. I n joinedl 5 7 stay e d Captain Boynton got leave, and they went to Brighton. He left her there and came up to Lon don. Upan hearing the regiment was ordered to India she followed her husband, who had rejoined in Dublin, but he appeared annoyed at her pre sence, and only came twice to the hotel to see her within in a fortnight. He then went to England to sell his commission. When they came together again he had sold out, and they went to Scar borough. He frequently left her there for weeks at a time without any money whatever, and when he came back he refused to say where he had been. They afterwards lived at Brighton, but while there he left her constantly alone, and passed her in the street, as if he had never seen her in his life before. On her remonstrating with him, he struck her vio lently on the arm with a hairbrush, and she never afterwards dared to expostulate with him as to his unkindness, because she was afraid of his violence. She received an anonymous letter in April, 1858. At that time Captain Boynton was in Yorkshire, and she was with her child at Brighton. In con sequence of the receipt of that letter she left his guardianship and commenced the present proceed ing. Her husband had since once found his way into the lodgings she had taken near her sister's house. Cross-exammed—There were no books nor a piano at Burton Agnes. There were some old books of theology which she did not care to read. and there might have been a kind of piano, a hun dred years old: Her husband never treated her very kindly. She never heard any one say that he spoiled her. He was always unkind to her unless she did exactly what he desired. She had written to him affectionately, and he had answered her letters. The reason he dragged her into the hall at Burton Agnes was because he thought she had signed her money away to her mother. She did not call out or make any noise, although he dragged her violently,but she resisted as much as she could. She cried and went up to her room until he had recovered his temper. In the shop at Brussels she flatly contradicted her husband, but she did not remember calling him a liar. She might have dined quietly with him in the evening, but that did not prevent his pushing her along the street. He almost frightened her to death. The crowd followed them to the hotel, but no one inter fered. He was in the constant habit of boxing her ears so violently that she hardly knew where she was standing. They did not live happily at Nice. The present Sir Henry Boynton had lived at the Lodge at Burton Agnes, but she considered it was only a house for servants. It might have four or five rooms which were habitable. Some very affec tionate letters were read from Mrs. Boynton to her husband during cohabitation, which were Admitted to be in her own handwriting, and she said she had had some differences w'th him about money matters, and he had supplied her with money to pay debts which she had neglected to pay. Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., addressed the jury on behalf of the respondent. The following evidence was adduced in opposi tion to the ease of cruelty, the adultery in 1857 and I'3B not being dcsiied. Lady Boynton deposed that during the time the respoatlen i t wa a iint n it d io l sf i e is ve u r ife were at Burton Agnes, she never saw any disagreement between them.

Boyn ton had no property of ' s ai d that"soorn:C the a time. pt. occasion his own until his father's The Marquis of NORMANDY rose to put a question to the noble earl the President of the Council with regard to the alleged annexation of the Duchy of Savoy and the county of Nice by Sardinia to France. When he gave no tice of his question on the previous evening, he stated it was not his intention to go into details on the subject, or the probable effects of the proposed arrangement, in viola tion of a treaty which England and the other powers of Europe were bound to maintain. But though he still ad hered to what he said on that occasion, he thought it due to himself to state that the public mind of Europe was so in tent upon the change, that he felt bound to ask his noble friend what was the actual state at present of the negotia tions? In giving that notice he felt he was departing from the usual custom, and he would not have done so if the Government acted as they formerly did, by giving in the Royal Speech every information. During late years we had seen a succession of surprises, affecting the national re lations and the policy of this country. This question had been mooted in newspaper paragraphs and anonymous pamphlets. The statement had appeared in two newspapers in Paris, and the question had arrived at such a point that an answer or an explanation must be given. A statement had appeared in two of the habitual, though not official organs of the Imperial Government ; it was first inserted in Le Pays and afterwards in La Patrie, and in the Indepen dance Beige, a paper of the largest circulation of any paper on the continent. They would find the first was the most adroit of the imperial organs, while the latter was blamed for being sometimes in too great a hurry, but the statements it put forward were generally found to be pretty near the truth. Le Pays constantly stated that it was the intention of the Emperor to adhere strictly to his engagements, and on the 22d of January there appeared a paragraph pointing di rectly to the supposed annexation. The noble marquis, in a voice which was not unfrequezetly inaudible, proceeded to quote scraps from French newspapers. From the journal last mentioaed he quoted the expression that " it was no more possible to make Savoy Italian than to suppress the Alps." Now he thought it would puzzle the writer to show ho w Savoy could be called French. How could it be said that Savoy was less Italian now than it had been for many centuries past ? The statement was, in fact, merely ad captandtein. The writer went on to say that " it was evident the day was drawing nigh when the super structure raised by diplomatists must disappear before the power of logic and the course of events." As to what had been written about the principle or doctrine of nationality ho had apprehensions far beyond the mere annexation of Savoy or Nice to France. There were contingent dangers—dangers attending the establishment of a doctrine which threatened almost every European State—dangers which we must not and could not overlook. Could it be for one moment imagined that England had no interest in the assertion of such a doc trine ? 'Why, let us look at our own possessions, scattered over the face of the globe, and then see how far we could recognise the principle of nationality. How could England stand this test ? How about the Mediterranean and the lonian Islands? (Hear.) What of Gibraltar, or India, or our dependencies in another hemisphere ? Why, if such were to be admitted as a valid ground there would not be a single country in Europe the foundation of whose title would not be shaken. Such a doctrine would be quite subversive of those treaties and of that order and regularity which 40 years' peace had brought about. Russia, indeed, prided her self upon her nationality. Now, as regarded Poland—did he think they could collect the scatterer remnants of a national existence ? The restoration of Poland to nationality would almost remind one of Mr. Canning's expression regarding the repeal of the legislative union :—" Repeal the union— restore the heptarchy." Well, then, as to Prussia and this doctrine of nationality—see how it worked from Posen to Aix-la-Chapelle. Again, witness its application to Austria. And here he must say that he looked upon the stability of Austria as one of the main elements of European security ; and he hoped and believed th a t, as regarded the Hungarian dominions, the loyalty of the Hungarian people was not yet shaken. The noble marquis went on to quote from the newspaper which eulogised the disinterested motives of France. and urged the desirableness and exj e limey of an nexing the county of Nice, for which the writer said the reasons were more satisf ac t ory an d conclusive than even in the case of Savoy. The two did not, in fact, stand the same footing ; for the t ru th was t h at Nice was far upon more Italian than even Piedmont itself. Nor could he at all per ceive any reason there existed for confounding Nice with Savoy. The noble marquis next quoted from the Inde P dance Beige, which stated that England was more desirous of extending Piedmont to the Marshes, rather than Central Italy, and that the treaty of commerce which England was about to conclude with France would incli ne the former to back up the policy of the latter, induce England to main tain strict neutrality, and with the consent of the cabinet of Turin permit France to enlarge her frontier. Now, it was not pleasant for an Englishman to read that the British Government was about to neglect high considerations of policy, and to overlook the welfare of Europe merely in order to benefit and promote her material interests. (Hear.) And even as regarded this much boasted of commercial treaty, it might after all turn out that we had got the worst of the bargain ; therefore, he was anxious to know what in formation his noble friend could give him upon the subject. He would not allow himself for a moment to suppose that the answer of his noble friend would be that ho knew no thing of the subject, for it was very evident that public at tention on the continent, and more especially in Franco, had looked upon the matter with deep interest, and h . e could see no reason why our Government could n ot obtain informa tion from an ally with whom we had such close and inti mate relations. During the administration of any of the nine foreign ministers who presided at the French Foreign office during the last six years he ventured to say , that h ad he, as a British minister,` taken the paragraphs in question to the Foreign-office, and asked if there was any founda tion for them, ho would have received a satisfactory and a categorical answer. He had experienced this him self upon the Swiss question, towards the close of the reign of Louis Philippe. In 1818, M. Da Lamartine said that the people of Savoy were averse to annexation with Franca, but now it was said in Paris that the Savoyards were unanimously in favour of the annexation. It would be strange indeed if such a change could, in so short a time, come over a people who were of so opposite an opinion so recently. A race, too, who had so long lived under the con stitutional House of Savoy—(hear, hear)—now to desire to w bri on n l g d be placed under the sway of a despotic Government.

He said he thought the importance of the subject would be sufficient to justify his introducing it to the attention of the house. It was most essential to the administra tion of justice that juries should be acquainted with the grounds on which their verdict was reversed. Unless courts of criminal appeal were estab lished, or ether means adopted to give such infor mation, the practical result would be to render juries indifferent to their verdicts if they could be set aside in the way that had been done in respect to the verdict in Dr. Smethurst's case. The hon. and learned ' member adverted to the trial and subsequent matters in connection with the subject under consideration. He did not impute any blame to the Home Secretary, but he con sidered this power he was called on to exercise was too im important to be entrusted to an individual. CRUELTIES ON BOARD AMERICAN SHIPS. Mr. M. MILNES asked the Secretary of State for Foregn Affairs what measures had been adopted with regard to the address presented to her Majesty on the 2d Aug., 1859, by this house, praying her Majesty to enter into nego tiations with the United States of America for the purpose of preventing the assaults and cruelties committed on mer chant seamen in American vessels; and called the atten tion of th 6 house to some recent occurrences of that nature. Ho drew attention to the outrages perpetrated on board certain American vessels, and as it did not appear the Go vernment of this country could interfere in such cases. according to the state of international law, he trusted some means would be devised to abolish the practices in question. The effect of these outrages proved de'rimental to our own service, for one captain of a vessel said lie regretted he did not live under American instead of English law, as he could then do as he pie ised. Lord J. RUSSELL said, in reply to the question of the hon. memberK(Mr. D. Griffith), he did not believe that 30,000 French troops would be sent to Leghorn, and he had every reason to believe that the Em peror of the French entertained no such intentions with regard to annexation as the hon. member alluded to in his motion. In regard to the remarks of the last hon. member who had addressed the house, he begged to inform him that Lord Lyons had been communicated with, and it was ekn sidered by both Governments that the best course that could be adopted would be to refer the matter to the hands of the i respected representative of America in this country, Mr. Dallas. An interview had taken place with that hon. gentleman, and no doubt existed that men in both coun tries were in favour of a settlement of the question on the ! ground of humanity, and to redress the grievances occurring under the present system. A convention was preparing for that purpose. When the terms of that convention had been agreed on and rabFed, no time would be lost in bring ing in a bill that would meet the views of his hon. friend. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. Mr. BOVILL asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether it was the intention of her Majesty's Government to propose any alteration in the constitution of the Court of Probate and Divorce. He drew attention to the arrears of business that had ac cumulated in that court in consequence of the insufficient number of judges, and strongly advocated an amendment in its constitution. Mr. BOWYER objected to this court; but if it were per mitted to exist, it should be rendered as efficient as pos sible. He considered it, as at present constituted, a sort of encumbered estates' court for the transfer of women. ttNerhooalleSnssicsrtotliturtGliarmst:wisOCaaollscf. transacted dointhe niVy necessary L EWISot es law, Divorceat j i o d uhd t a h gc v Ae e oe u h ntr o het u e% as, Ordinary,pe judicialprNoevsra s et inoa a cnn w e doooafffir fortei j heuteehdr other judges , t eu, s b as syit por tions ap pointed from the ttheh e nba etudxtasepinnue : when iceeresodefo, ef t ca h :tnlho e ndeb c nin o ec ouoo obtained turi common law a w uh, established bv a at s djdubedfngeoaeal usn fdemuchtheuhn common odmuchbutmm beenont with egilrara aeti r h eteaegfnroatrr judges,hw d t ah t n o * attendance found consistent with th e conven i ent pa c of public business, especially a t cer t a i n moments in the 0 of com mondegsreact u h rts law, and particularly when it number of of wasdesired to constitute c a e c s o s u ar r y. court of Therefore, f f o o r r e w , h th ic e h re a l l v a a r absome ground and the subject had been under the consideration Chancelor, and her Majesty's Govern men t were pre sent prepared to take any steps to increas e the numbernntat r the common law judges for the purpose of secu ring of an addi tional attendance in the Court of Divorce, or to appoin ta second judge ; but they thought it might be practicable to enlarge the class of business which might be disposed ofl); the Judge Ordinary, and therefore to render unneces. - sary the attendance of the common law judges, except in cases of great difficulty and importance With regal • d to the remarks which had fallen from the hon. and learned member for Dundalk, h o could only say that the question of enabling the Judge Or -1 dinary to exclude the public during trials of a particular nature was a question upon which the noble lord - opposite (Lord J. Manners) had given notice of a motion for leave to bring in a measure, and therefore it would be premature in him (Sir G. C. Lewis) to express an opinion upon it. With regard to the general policy of the Divorce Act, he must decline entering into any discussion, unless same specific motion were made. He (Sir G. C.

He (Sir bill was not yet circulated, but an the second reading, and then he (Sir to express his opinion on the particular instance that house, b.O thought he should be Sir G. C. LEWIS moved for leave to bring in a bill for the better management of highways in England. The 'ex eeanditure on those roads defrayed by highway rates had risen from £1,85-1,000 in 1850, to-L*2,118,000 in. 1867. The bill which he intended to introduce was founded in a great measure on one that had been proposed by the late Under- Secretary of State. In the General Highway Act there was a power given to the parishes to petition the justices of quarter sessions to unite one parish with others, for the pur ' pose of forming a highway district, for the maintenance of highways, and to appoint a surveyor. If the justices of quarter sessions thought fit to make an order on the sub ject it took effect, and the district was formed. That was the state of things under the present law, but it was scarcely ever resorted to, inasmuch as it could only be put in motion by a petition from one pariah, without any power of com pelling the assent of the neighbouring parishes. That act was, therefore, found to be inoperative. The hon. member for Pembrokeshire introduced a bill, some years ago, for the purpose of establishing road districts in the six counties of South Wales. That bill gave a compulsory power for the formation of districts, and since: it had been in opera tion he could bear testimony to the satisfactory manner in which it worked. It produced a more efficient repair of the highways without any increased expense. The plan on which the present bill was framed was this : It gave power to the magistrates of quarter sessions to divide counties into districts of parishes for the repair of highways. It provided that waywardens should be elected, and possess powers similar to those possessed by the boards of poor law guar dians under the poor law. These local boards were to have power to appoint surveyors, clerks, and treasurers. The machinery, therefore, should be of the most simple charac ter, and quite in analogy with that which had been in ope ration for so many years for the relief of the poor. There was every reason, therefore, to lesqse that it would work in an efficient and satisfactory manner. The bill proposed to give the town councils similar powers for dividing the t avns into districts as were given to the magistrates of quarter sessions in counties. That was the outline of the bill, but it con tained one material deviation from the bill of last session which he should explain, and which he trusted would faci litate its passing in the pressent session of Parliament. He had had himself charge of bills of this nature, and was therefore well aware that the great obstacles to their success arose from the fact that whilst in many parts of counties there existed a strong desire to obtain powers of the sort— for he had received many applications for the intl. - sanction of a measure of this description—in others there was no such desire of possessing similar powers. This want of unani mity, therefore, was the greatest obstacle to the success of measures of this kind. "What he proposed to do was to make it optional with the magistrates of each county, whether they . would or would not introduce it in that county—that the justices of quarter sessions should make a provisional order in the first place, the consideration of which was to be postponed till the following quarter sessions ; and if then confirmed it was to become a compulsory order. A similar provfsion was made with regard to the town councils. In this way those parts of counties which might desire to avail themselves of the measure would be able to do so, whereas it need not be introduced into those parts where there was no desire to avail themselves of it. He hoped the house would give a fair consideration to the measure, and that it would become law during this session. Mr. BRIGHT said he waited in the house with a view of knowing whether the right hon. gentleman would give any reasons for the introduction of this bill, and after listening to the right hon. gentleman he believed he did not now give the real reason fur it. He found the bill introduced sessioa after session with some kind of statement like that of the right hon.gent lanais. He could only suppose that the measure was found by the right hon. gentleman in ono of the pigeon holes of his office, and that his predecessor had extracted a pledge from him that he would go on with it, as he was not left long enough in office himself to do so. Ho had not seen any petitions in favour of the measure, nor had he heard a savingsingle human being that he felt aggrieved by the present system, or wished to see a departure from the old system of the country. The right hon. gentleman began by stating the magnitude of the interests concerned—that on the highways not connected with towns more than a million had been expended, whilst on the highways in towns or the streets £BOO,OOO had been expended. But the right hon. geatlemae drew no inference from these figures. Per haps he wished the house to conclude that there had been some waste in that expenditure. Ile did not tell the house that in most towns the most perfect system of local govern ment that could bo devised existed, and that the whole management of the highways was vested in the occupiers who paid this largo sum, and they appointed annually the officers by whom it was expended. It was therefore per fectly natural that there should be no complaints and no petitions on the subject. He undertook to say that no body of ratepayers throughout the kingdom wished to have the bill passed.

Ile (Mr. Bright) thought, on the contrary, that it was an argu ment against it. He did not wish to speak in unfavourable terms of the magistrates of quarter sessions by whom this bill was to be pat in operation; but they were not the class of persons in whom the ratepayers had much confidence. They were appointed by persons under the Crown, or by the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster. In his own neigh bourhood whole batclic.4 of maxistrates had been appointed fur p ditical reasons. (Hear, hear.) Almost every owner of land of a thousand acres was a county magistrate. These were the gentlemen who formed the c.turts of quarter ses sions, and to them was to be given the power of upsetting for, and h r e e a m r remedying y , in h g e all th old parochial arrangements — of creating new districts le 'of right ho. grievances o t act, and that the aa gen tleman said that South Wales had an f lu w il hi ' c ' h hi n ci t i )b n od o y bo c d o y mp alakinededf.o . rid the expense no e ministration under it had been no worse a represen tationb—i lfNs.dvoo w ui l h ndg i which had away existed i w s e t d h fur th lcet centuries. elective P r Ph e e l arg ument ym t , l a i n an ted th o a r t was required to justify a measure w which existed asked for. It was a transferenceof the power of greater than before, but some strong h e i r ch parishes to a body in the hands of the ratepayers of the d George Watkins, a detective officer in the City force, said lie apprehended Edgar outside the Marl borough Head, in Bishopsgate-street, and on telling him it was for stealing an iron safe, he said he had heard there were inquiries made about him, and he had been up to Somerset House about it. He asked Edgar what he was doing at the Marl borough Head, and he . said looking after some tools which had been stolen. Witness then took Edgar to the police-station, and found on him a key be longing to one of the closets at the end of the corri dor in which the office is situated from which the safe was stolen. He denied being concerned in the robbery, and said ho left Gresham House on the night of the robbery by the front door in Old Broad-street. He had his basket of tools on his shoulder, and Moore was with him, but they sepa rated in Broad street. Edgar further said that he reached home at half-past seven o'clock on the night in question, and did not go out again until the following morning. He repeatedly inquired if Moore had been arrested. Edgar also said he had never left Gresham House on Monday week,having a number of little jobs to finish. This took place when he was first apprehended and before he was discharged. On Friday last witness went to Edgar's house, at 35,- Montague-mews, Montague-Street, with Sergeants Brett and Leonard, of the detective force, where he again took Edgar into custody, and upon telling him that the cabman had been found who took him and Moore up with the iron safe in St. Mary-axe, he appeared very much agitated, and said be was not the party. He also denied calling at the Marlborough Head for some tools which he had left there during the day. He said he went home past the Bank, through Cheapside, Newgate-street, and Holborn-hill. On the same evening witness met Moore near his house, in Hor ton, and took him into custody on the same charge. He told Moore they had found the cabman, who had identified Edgar, and from his description Moore was the other man. Moore asked if Edgar was in custody, and, on hearing that he was, said it was a most unfortunate thing that he should have been seen with Edgar, but he was quite sure the cabman could not identify him. The cabman took the prisoners up about 200 yards from the en trance to Gresham House and put them down at about 100 yards from Montague-mews. Cross-examined by Mr. Beard—He took Moore to the police-station, where the cabman identified him as the man who called his cab off the rank in Bishopsgate-street. He did not say he did not think Moore was the man, nor anything to that effect. Neither he nor Serjeant Brett left the room with the cabman after seeing the prisoner, and be fore he was identified. He did not remember either of the officers with him suggesting to the cabman that he could tell the prisoner better by his walk. Moore walked up and down several times in the station, but the cabman did not afterwards say . he had a little belief lie was the man. He accompanied witness to Edgar's house, and there identified him as the man he saw with the iron safe in St Mary axe. Edgar had only his trousers and shirt on, and thecabman was net quite certain, but when he (Edgar) put the rest of his clothes on, the cabman said he was quite sure he was the man. Edgar asked if he might go out, and he was told he could do as he pleased. The officers had no further con versation with. the cabman, but they consulted E a Hong dg a r themselvesor try a rrd to ro w t h h e e th s e a r fo th h e r y st. sho l u l ld ey take de cided, however, upon securing Edgar. James Stokes, the cabman , re - callea , and cross examined by Mr. Beard, said he went wi th Ser a:ea jeants Brett, Watkins, and Leonard, to Edgar's house. Ile remained outside while the officers went in. When lie was called in he did not shake his head, and say he did not know Edgar. He went into anot her room with them, an 1 there being more light there he recognised him at once. Ho did not say he only thought he was the man. His attention was drawn to the prisoner's basket of tools, bit nothing was said about a public-house. He could not swear he saw the officers in a public house giving out bills offering a reward of £5O f or the apprehension and conviction of the men who took the safe. He did not expect to get the £5O reward. Mr. Field, the landlord of the Marlborough Head, identified the prisoner as the same person who had called at his house fora basket of t oo l s, which the cabman saw him bring out while the iron-safe was in his cab.
