Mr. Whitehead had ascertained from the Minister of Finance that this 8 per cent. N you'd be exacted on the dollars of the dividend fund on being sent away, and was receiv ing every •support from her Majesty's Charge d'Affaires, !Ur. Mathew, in his endeavours to con tend again* .t this illegality, with what result re mains to be seen. The President, who had returned to the capital on the 7th April, was to leave it again en the 30tH to collect forces and take the command agianst Gen. Uraga, a Constitutionalist general, Who had defeated the Government troops under Gem. de la. Vega, and taken possession of San Luis Potosi, which was considered a terrible and most unexpected blow to the Conservatives.''

One of this description was lately presented. at the Commercial Bank. It was drawn by S. Collen on Herbert Lang and Co. Great Lion-street, E.C., London , an entirely fictitious address. It had also a number of fictitious endorsements, and had been negotiated at Brussels. Owing to the numerous cases in which the injus tice of the income tax is aggravatedby the attempts to en force it where it has no equitable application, a correspon dent suggests that attention should be especially called to a recent appeal in the Exchequer Court, the result of which may induce persons not to submit too freely to the inter pretation of Government officials regarding the bearing of articular imposts. ' A partner in a New York firm, resi ett at Nottingham, and acting as their agent, was re tret to wiy income tax not only on his own share, but on e nr're nrofits of the house, which consists of seven otherpartners, am. conducts its business in America like any foreign ti ni . Ile refused to pay more than his indi vidual share, and 'h e Att orne y-General proceeded against him and got a verdict, On an appeal, however, the whole of .the judges pronounced th e exaction to be illegal, the Lord Zul s e a f li J k ustice citing illustrations to show that the claim a unjust, absurd, and injurious, and that the plea of the e Crown would operate to proceeding th at could effect the most impolitic be adopted in a commercial country— that of " taxing those who come to us. as our customers! THEATRE -ROYA L, DUBLlN.—Madame Celeste, whose talents have gained for her a world-wide celebrity, has commenced engagement for a month at the Theatre- Royal, with the intention of producing the several pieces Theatre 'which, were so successfully represented at the Lyceum Theatre during the last London. On her pre senting herself before the w i s s t :audienceseason on the first eveninc , of leer performing, Madame demonstrations of applause, &e. a perfect welcomed with tremendous b accompanied e by waving of handkerchiefs, lasted several minutes, and for somientismome ovation— which overpowered her. Ai-length, however. having appropriatee-recovered herself. Madame delivered a very ex pressing her a cknowledgments to her kind friends, address, which was most enthusiastically received. The performances ',were , were " Le Chevalier de Vaudreuil, or the Court 'er "The Two Cities ui ' s ' and Mr. Tom Taylor's play of, in both of which the charming and truthful acti n .. of Ma dame Celeste was fully appreciated, and acknowledged by repeated marks of the warmest approbation, by one of the most distinguished, crowded, and enthusiastic audiences that were ever seen within the walls of a theatre. A new wheel for railway carriages has been in troduced to obviate the possibility of those breakages of tire from which a large proportion of the worst accidents have recently arisen. The tire in this case is solid throughout, having no holes for bolts or rivets in any part, and it is so Connected with the wheel that if one part were to break the remainder would still be held firmly in pesition. The system has been tested on the Brighton line for some months, and the results are said to have bmonstrated its safety and economy. The steamer which arrived at Queenstown yesterday with machinery damaged was the Teutonia, and not the • klammonia.. PREFERENCE SHARES. Blythe and Tyne 10 per c. pref.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before Vice• Chancellor Sir W. P. Wood.) JAQUES V. JAQUES-JUDGMENT. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor said—The contest in this case is whether a partnership for building cottages was entered into between the plaintiff, Alfred, and defen dant, Thomas Jaques, brothers, and whether the money advanced by the plaintiff and his father to the defendant for the purchase of land and houses built thereon was partnership property. The plaintiff claimed the property in question as partnership property, and the defendant claimed it as his private property. His Honour, on re viewing the evidence produced, which in many points was conflicting, and in some particulars not trustworthy, came to the conclusion that there was a partnership for building houses entered into between the the plaintiff and defendant, and that the money advanced by the plaintiff and his father to the defendant for the purchase of land and build ing houses thereon, was partnership property, and declared accordingly. His Honour directed the property to be sold, and the mortgagee, Mr. Shepherd, to conduct the sale ; the partner ship accounts to be taken, debts, interest, and costs to be paid, and residue, if any, divided, with liberty to apply. No costs of suit on either aide. HALL V. WILSON.-JUDGMENr. The only question in this suit was whether the testator intended his leasehold property to be sold by his trustees. His Honour, the Vice-Chancellor, on considering the terms of the testator's will, was of opinion that the testator did not intend that his leasehold property in Regent-street was to be sold by his trustees, but that it should remain in tact (untouched), and declared accordingly. Costs of all parties interested to be paid out of the trust funds. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Mr. Commissioner Holroyd was the sitting Commis. sioner, but was engaged at a private sleeting up to half past 12. IN RE HEATHER. This bankrupt was described as a builder, of East Mous fey, and came up for his certificate. Mr. S. Chidley appeared for the assignees, but did no oppose. Mr. Brough supported the application, and urged several points in the bankrupt's favour. His Honour said that the bankrupt had carried on busi ness beyond a time he ought to have done, but, as there was no opposition, he might take a certificate of the second class; but he ought to take warning, for if he came again he would not be so leniently dealt with. POLICE INTELLIGEN CE-( THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ANNOYING A TRADESNIAN.—Mr. James Kennedy, of 29, Castle-street, Oxford-street, feather manufacturer, was charged, before Mr. Beadon, with annoying Mr. W. H. Heath, hatter, of 2GI, Oxford street, in his business. Mr. Heath said the defendant came to his shop yester day, created a great disturbance, and, on his at length getting ?aim outside, he caused a large number ( f persons to assemble round the house by calling him a swindler, and he was therefore obliged to give him into custody. Defendant said he called for the settlement of an account. Mr. Heath ordered him out of his shop. saying, that if he did not leave he would turn him out. He told Mr. Heath he would call when he was in a better temper, when Mr. Heath sent for a constable, and he had been locked up ever since. Mr. Beadon (addressing the defendant) said his language on the pr4ious afternoon, when he was brought to this court, was so abominable to all persons, that he was obliged to have him locked up in the cells. He had never heard a man use more blackguard language. Mr. Heath said he told the defendant to call when he was sober, and then it was he called him a swindler. A gentleman who was in the shop at the time confirmed the plaintiff's statement, and said he heard the defendant addressing the crowd, and pointing Mr. Heath out as a swindler. Mr. Beadon said persons were not to be called swindlers in this way. If.-the defendant had any claim on the com plainant he could go to the county court. He should fine him 40s , Dr in default 14 days' imprisonment. THIS' DJ.Y'S MARKETS. lIAY MARKETS.

Vire learn from the Bombay Gazette that his Highness Meer Jaffer Ali Khan Bahadur enter tained the Parsee community of that place at dinner in honour of the late marriage of his daughter. He made a speech to them in which he said that he reckoned the Parsees as his brothers—" as, indeed, the whole human race is one common bro therhood." Of the impressions which England had produced upon him, his highness thus spoke : —" I was anxious that an occasion should arise when I could give an account of my sojourn in England to my fellow countrymen ; and by the grace of God an opportunity has presented itself to us this evening. I wish I could describe to you the remarkable intelligence of the Englishmen as displayed by them in their various dealings—social, political, commercial. So vast and varied is their knowledge in everything that they have rightly earned the title of being ranked amongst the first and foremost of nations on the face of the globe. On the first occasion when I visited England in 1844, I stayed there for about five months. The gentry and nobility of that delightful country treated me with all the kindness and consideration for which they are so remarkable. In 1853 I paid a second visit to England, and had occasion to prolong my stay there for five years. During that long period I had every opportunity of making myself acquainted with their manners and customs, their social and political laws, their judicial system, &c., &c. I moved amongst the leading men of the realm ; and my as sociation with Englishmen has impressed me with a very high opinion of their transcendent intelli gence in every branch of human knowledge. To appreciate their several virtues, to admire their mechanical ingenuity, and to become acquainted with all that exalts our mind and enlarges our heart, we must be there on the spot. No descrip tion, however full and glowing, could adequately convey the idea I have received from personal visit of the magnificence and grandeur of England and ha people. One of the most remarkable things that struck me was the system of their l eg i s l at i on and government. Their form of government i s th e yet seen. To the peopl e o f t h e East, it strikesnge that the p eop l e s h ould have control over the acts of the Q ueen ; i n po i nt o so f much fc people govern the cou n t ry; and to my be best fact, I tthehave us a s very tr mind it should be so. If we go deeper into the subject, we will see that the people of a country should be the ruling body. I was also struck with the mode in which justice is administered. I would go no further than in 3 self —you are all aware, gen ' tlemen, of the particulars of the case, you see how equitably they have disposed of the matter. Let us all pray for the permanent establishment of the British power iu India, and for the welfare and prosperity of their nation wherever they go, and wherever they are." _ . The youngest brother of the present Parsee baro netwho w ere 36 i n has, we learn from the Bombay Gazette, com memorated the anniversary of the d ea th o f hi s f t a h t e h e s r in , a S l i l r jam s e je t b pr y payin g the debt s o f a ll , number, and whose debts amounted to 5,000 ru p ees . cause teoeu; It appears that. notwithstanding the accounts continuously received of the glut of English goods, our ex ports to the Australian colonies during the first quarter of the present year exceeded those of the correspondi ng p er i o d of 1859 by £267,865, or more than 13 per cent. They were also 6 per cent. in excess of those of 1858. Hence it is plain that through improper advances by joint •stock banks or other facilities some transactions of the reckless character of those which were exp sed in 1857 are still carried on. In the ease of Mr. John Blaikie, the Aberdeen lawyer who ab sconded last month, leaving deficiencies to the amount of £200,900,. it has transpired that he was an active speculator, not only in shares, but in consignments of cotton and other goods to China and elsewhere. THE PULLING ER FRAUDS.—The Committee of the Stock Exchange met yesterday with a view to the publica tion of a report on the Pullinger frauds, but some facts having transpired to show that other members, in addition to the four now suspended, may be found to have been engaged in - transactions for him, they adjourned the matter for further consideration. The brokers in question are a highly respectable firm, and it is said the operations in cluded time bargains in Turkish Stock, COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

GREAT EASTERN.—STEAM PACKET HARVEST.— The Southampton and Cowes steamboats are daily loaded with passengers attracted by the Great Eastern steamship, lying in Southampton river. The packets from Southamp ton to the Isle of Wight allow their passengers to go on board the Great Ship without any extra charge, and the next steamer takes them on to the island. They thus ac commodate the public and fill their coffers. RESTORATION OE THE APPARENTLY DRO TVNED. At the present bathing season the following directions for the restoration of the apparently dead from drowning can rot fail to be of essential service. Their leading principles are those of the late Dr. Marshall Hall, and are the results of the latest discoveries. The favourable opinion of the principal medical bodies und of three hundred medical men in this country, as also those of the chief medical bodies of the continent, have been obtained by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution on the subject. These directions have been extensively circulated by the institution throughout the United Kingdom and in the colonies. They are also in use in her Majesty's fleet, and have been translated into French, German, Spanish, and Swedish. Send immediately for medical assistance, blankets, and dry clothing, but proceed to treat the patient instantly on the spot, in the open air, whether on shore or afloat. The points to be aimed at are, first and immediately, the restoration of breathing and the prevention of any further diminution of the warmth of tha body; and, secondly, after breathing is restored, the promotion of warmth and circulation. The efforts to restore breathing, and to preveat any further diminution of the warmth of the body, must be commenced immediately and energetically, and must be persevered in for several hours, or until a medical man has pronounced that life is extinct. Efforts to promote warmth and circulation must be deferred until natural breathing has been restored. TO RESTORE BREATHING. TO PREVENr ANY FURTHER To Clear the Throat. DIMINUTION or WARMTH. 1.

TREATMENT AFTER NATURAL BREATHING HAS BEEN RESTORED. To promote Warmth and Circulation. I Commence rubbing the limbs upwards, with firm grasping pressure and energy, using handkerchiefs, flannels, &c. (by this measure the blood is propelled along the veins towards the heart). The friction mustbe continued under the blanket, or over the dry clothing. 2. Promote the warmth of the body by the application of hot flannels, bottles, or bladders Of hot water, heated bricks, &c,, to the pit of the stomach, the armpits, between the thighs, and to the soles of the feet. 3. If the patient has been carried to a house after respira tion has been restored, be careful to let the air play freely about the room. 4. On the restoration of life a teaspoonful of warm water should be given ; and then, if the power of swallowing have returned, small quantities of wine, warm brandy and water, or coffee, simuld be administered. The patient should be kept in bed and a disposition to sleep encouraged. General Observations. The above treatment sliculd be persevered in for several hours, as it is as erroneous opinion that persons are irre coverable because life does net soon make its appearance, cases having been successfully treated after persevering for many hours. Appearances which generall ac COE pally Death. Breathing and the heart's action cease entirely ; the eye lids are generally half-closed ; the pupils dilated ; the jaws clenched; the fingers semi -contracted; the tongue ap proaches to the under edges of the lips, and these, as well as the nostrils, are covered with a frothy mucus. Coldness and pallor of surface increase. Royal National Lifeboat Institution, London, May, 18G0. ALARMING RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR LIVER POOL.—At a quarter past two yesterday afternoon, the train from Southport was passing the Sandhills-statio where there is a great curve, when the engine ran off the line, and, as well as two of the carriages, which were filled with passengers, turned over. The alarm created by the occurrence may be better imagined than described. As far as can be at present ascertained, the fireman only was in jured.

A letter from Florence, dated May 21, says Amongst the distinguishing features of the age we live in there is not probably one which will leave such memorable results behind it as the energy which Englishmen have shown in the pro secution of new and strange careers—the indomita ble courage and perseverance they have displayed in circumstances perfectly novel. India presents an immense number of such instances, where men were called on for the exhibition of qualities which in their ordinary life, had never been developed. Our colonies, especially Australia, are full of such ex amples; and it is really in no vain-gloriousness that we can say that the Anglo-Saxon race lends itself more readily to the spirit of the time and the demands of emergency than any other of which history tells us. We have but to turn over the files of a newspaper to adduce examples. One of the ablest, if not the very ablest, of our Indian generals at this moment, passed years of his life in the half inglorious indolence of a secretary of embassy, re markable for little beyond the facility with which he indulged that indolence. The event, however, called for the man, and we have seen how he an swered the call. It was following out in reverse the train of thought thus suggested I found myself a few days back in a lonely and almost deserted street of Florence. A high wall at one side, over which :some trees showed their foliage, was an swered at the other by a large, irregular old build- , ing, whose jealous-looking windows betrayed the convent. Looking somewhat closer, however, I per ceived that the place was no longer tenanted by the devout, butwas in reality an artist's studio—the name C— F— on the door modestly announcing the proprietor. " C— F— !" muttered I to myself: strange accident of name. It was only a few years ago I knew one who bore it, the most flattered and eagerly sought, the handsome aide-de-camp, the best look ing and most accomplished fellow of a crick cavalry regiment, one of those men who carry with them into life tko cachet of gentleman so distinctively, whose breeding is so eminently true and real that even the scandalmongers of society are fain to let him pass unmolested, and suffer his claim to notice and distinction to be preferred without objecting. Some reverses of fortune, I know not exactly how caused, had compelled him to leave the army; but, with influential connections, and the popularity of his name, I had little doubt of his obtaining some public employment—in fact, such a man, highly gifted and accomplished as he was, could not fail of receiving his just recognition. I had asked three or four who knew him, and all I could learn was he had been at Constantinople at such a time ; so and so had met at such an embassy at dinner, and he had been shooting with somebody else at such a place; when suddenly the same name on the door post of the convent brought up the man to my mind. Curious to see him who bore the designa tion—amusing myself with the idea of how unlike would be the swell cavalry officer with the pale checked artist—l rang the bell, and asked permis sion to see the studio. he artist, I was informed was from home, but I could see the studio. In the vast chamber, which had once been the chapel o! the convent, and which was now arranged with the most consummate taste, I saw a number of busts, many of which—seen qt a glance—l could rccog nise. Mario and Grisi, a distinguished Welsh ba ronet, and a_ well-known Irish beauty. Fro:n these, however, I turned to examine the greater and more pretensions work to which my attention was now called. One called the Cast away represented a young sailor, storm-tossed on a raft, at a moment when a strange sail has come in sight and answered his signal. The form of strength and symmetry wasted by privation and suffering, but not painfully emaciated—the terrible eagerness of the face, as with a last effort he seems to cry for aid—the strength which, in the very act, appears to fail him, were all depicted with consummate power. There was all the narrative power of a late great writer with the life-like traits which mere description never reaches; and, greater than these was the great avo:k of art, the graceful delineation of form, the most accurate study of the human anatomy, and the truest adherence to all the prin ciples of art. Besides this—but as yet only- existing in the state of model—was one of the most beautiful concep tions I have ever seen. It was the undraped figure of a girl sleeping ; the expression of the features, slightly moved by some passing dream, but still relaxed in sleep, harmonised beautifully with the repose of the attitude, and as if to contrast with whose peaceful loveliness a proud eagle, with arched neck and piercing eye, stands cowering at her feet, seizing as his prey her slipper, for it is the fable of Rhodope, the Cinderella of Eastern story, which is here told, To represent the utmost amount of beauty, the most consummate perfection of form in all the voluptuous abandonment of sleep, and yet retain throughout the purest sentiment of the ideal, is the triumph of this work. The whole conception is chaste as the spotless marble that reveals it. I have but space to mention one other work—a half-finished model of Lady Godiva. She is of course undraped, but the masses of her flowing hair fall in wavy sheets over her, as with bent-down head and modest mien she moves slowly on. The figure is a charming one; it is a womanly grace in all its highest perfection, Bnt probably the critical eye will be equally struck by the horse, which shows how thoroughly the artist must have studied that animal's proportions. The pace is a slow one, and consequently more difficult to render ; but every muscle is portrayed, and every articulation de lineated with so truthful a nicety that I only know of one instance to compete with it—Rauch's admirable equestrian statue of Frederick the Great. Disappointed at not meeting the artist himself— for I own that my visit had been prompted by the curiosity I have mentioned—l asked some questions about him. "He was very young —an Englishman," my informant proudly said, un uomo bellissi»2e, who could do everything ; he rode, drew, sang, and spoke foreign languages. "Had he ever served in the British army," I asked. " Yes ; here was his portrait," and he pointed to a water-colour sketch, and the sculptor stood revealed in the handsome officer of the Lancers! 110 P INTELLIGENCE. WORCESTER, May 26.—Our growing crop is for the most part favourably spoken of by the planters to-day ; yet there are exceptions, on cold wet lands, where the bine is looking weak and yel low, and does not make much progress. We hear of a few flies having been seen here and there, but nothing of any consequence. Market very quiet. OTFORD, May 23.—The bine is making rapid progress, and tying is going on vigorously. WALDRON, May 23.—The hops in this neigh bourhood have done wonders this week ; the poles generally speaking are all set up, and the business of tying has commenced in good earnest, which in many cases the women are troubled to get along fast enough with, as the hills furnish plenty of bine. CANTERBURY, May 23.—The bine is growing rapidly, entirely beating the tyers, who are few in number. Great quantities of flea still infest most grounds, and the leaves are much injured by them. The bine carries an excellent colour, and is at places some feet up the poles. No fly has made its appearance at present. PLAXTOL, May 24.—The past week has made a great alteration in the appearance of our hop grounds. The bine is growing rapidly, and looks healthy in most places, _ _ . HEA - DcoRN, May 24.—The hops are growing fast, and in some places are running away from the tyers. TUNBUIDGE WELLS, May 24.—The hop polling is nearly or quite finished, and the bine has grown very fast this last week. WARBLETOS, May 24.—We have only to chro nicle the fact that the weather during the last fort night has been capital for the growth of the plant, and that the hop tying is progressing busily. There is, however, a complaint that in some gardens the plant is not clean.—Sussex Express.
