The general scheme and objects proposed to be embraced by this Company may be thus described, viz. :—The con struction, maintenance, management, and working of such works of irrigation, water transit, and water sup ply in India, with their auxiliary undertakings as may, from time to time, be found to be of a profitable character, after the necessary sanction of Government has been secured to each project. The works selected for first operations, and intended to be immediately entered upon, have been examined by en gineers of the highest attaintments and Indian experience, who urgently recommended them for construction by Go vernment as being, in their opinion, amongst the most mportant. and in promise the most profitable of their character in India. These works will consist of : Firstly,—lrrigating and Navigable canals, with all sub sidiary works throughout the rich and extensive alluvial Deltas of Orissa and the adjoining districts, receiving their supply from the copious and never-failing waters of three great rivers, the Mahanuddy, the Byturny, and the Brah many, which, with their affluents, intersect and command the trade and commerce of countries, together much larger in extent than England and Wales, and abounding in agricultural and mineral wealth. The land in Orissa alone, capable of being thus affected, is estimated to amount to about 2,000,000 acres. Secondly,—A main Irrigating and Navigable Canal, con necting the above works and districts with the port and city of Calcutta, starting-from Balasore and passing by Midna poor to the Hoogly River, opposite to Calcutta, with all subsidiary channels necessary to irrigate about 2,500,000 acres of good land contained in the surrounding country. The present Secretary of State for India, in Council, in March last, addressed to the Government of India an official communication calling attention to the im portance of constructing these works, and stating that her Majesty's Government were prepared to carry them into effect as soon as the plans and estimates were approved by the local Government. A desire to see an unguaranteed Company established led, however, he states, to their con ession to this Company. The main sources of profit will be : Firstly,—The sale of water to the Government for the irrigation of land. Secondly.—Tolls levied in respect of the use of the Canals and Water-ways by the public. To these may be added as available but subsidiary means f a lditional returns :- I.—The working of the Canals by the`Company by the conveyance of Passengers, Animals, and Goods thereon. 2.—Rent and otherincome derived from mills and factories established on the banks of the various channels. 3.—Cultivation and sale of timber and other produce raised upon the land of the Company. And, 4.—The supply of water for general purposes. Although these latter are now put forth as secondary only, they should by no means be lost sight of—the first of them has been already ascertained to be highly productive in India, and by the official accounts of the existing Canals in the North-western provinces of Bengal the profits derived from mills, timber, and bank produce, represent a large per tentage upon outlay. It is proposed to limit the issue of capital in the first in stance, to the sum of £1.000,000, divided into 50,000 shares of £2O each, and to take a first deposit of £ 1 p er share a only, with further payment of £1 per share when the inn] agreement has been concluded ; this will, it is believed, suttee to support effective operations for the first twelve months. Of all subsequent calls, full and timely notice "wilt be given to each shareholder. In the allotment of shares, preference will be given to these applicants who are shareholders in the Madras Irri gation and Canal Company, to the extent of the number of shares held by them in that company, and all future issues of shares in England will be distributed pro rata amongst such of the then existing shareholders in the present com pany as may be desirous of taking them. A full Prospectus and form of applications for shares may how be had upon request at the Company's Offices, 27, Can unn .street, E.C., Lendon ; or at the Company's Bankers, Messrs. Ransom, nouvcrie, and Co., 1, Pall-Mall East.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to c ure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the various forms of disease which . resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a sale guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subjec t specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within thus reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

In the good old days, " the fool of the family" was put into the Church. 111-natured people pre tend that the Chief Commissionership of Works is a providential institution for the disposal of the " weak brother" of an Administration. The com plement of her Majesty's Government, as of her Majesty's ships is made up of idlers and non-com batants, not of executive officers only; and the Office of Works is a department assigned to the most agreeable and useless class of functionaries. A man may possess all the instincts of an orna mental gardener or a farm steward, without own ing any other qualification for responsible employ ment. The philosopher and wit of a fashionable tea party may be great in a small circle, and a petit maitre maybe a prodigy of wisdom in a draw ing-room, but take him out of his element and he sinks into a frivolous and vexatious bore. Now there is nut a word to be said against the selection of Mr. Cowper, as a genial dilettante gentleman who by universal consent was to make a model Minister of parks, and gardens, and public places. It is Mr. Cowper's misfortune rather than his fault that—in a very small way—he enjoys the reputa tion of a bel esprit. Hence the ambition to break through the silence which surrounds the services of a Commissioner of Works, and the determination at all risks to make a noise about his name. It was not enough to purge the Serpentine by a Niagara of sewage; something must be done before the end of the Session to convince an indifferent public of the undeveloped capacities for mischief and annoyance of that enlightened despotism, the Chief Commissionership of Works. The " encroachment on the privacy of Kensington-gardens," which has not only stirred the wrath of all the metropolitan vestries, bat ruffled the equanimity of the great tax paying and long-suffering public, is, we are fully persuaded, nothing but a freak of restless vanity on the part of an amiable and intelligent, though flighty and fussy chief of a department too limited for his energy and importance, This we believe to be the head and front of the Chief Commissioner's offence, against which we are receiving daily letters enough to fill our columns ; but as Mr. Cowper has obtained an indemnity for his railings and hurdles from the rump of a derelict House at a morning sit ting in August, and as, moreover, he is supported by the bullying impudence of powerful backers out of doors, we must say our say again upon this unwar• rentable and intolerable proceeding. We learn from a very old proverb what class of equestrians it is that rides with the most reckless disregard to conse quences. Perhaps it is the " beggar-on-horseback" interest that a great mounted contemporary repre sents on this question. It is a stale trick enough to set up an "Aunt Sally" in the shape of" aristocratic invasion of the rights of the people, 'a bugbear which it may be convenient to set up because it is so easily knocked down. But no reasonable being who has by speech, or letter, or petition, protested against Mr. Cowper's horse-ride, has charged the " aris tocracy" as a body with a wilful and wanton blun der, repugnant alike to the tact, the spirit, and the liberal social feeling of English gentlemen of an cient rank and large estate. Assuredly there is nothing of the grand seigneur in the air of Mr. Cowper's patrons and apologists. It is not the country gentlemen who have parks, and fields, and gardens of their own, and whose acquaintance with the saddle is not confined to a park-hack in Rotten row, that would grudge the quiet possession of Ken sington-gardens to the vast numbers of their unpri vileged fellow-citizens who are condemned to trudge afoot through life, to dwell the long year through in weary streets, and seldom to get a glimpse of leaves and grass, except in those public parks which, according to Mr. Cowper, are not parks, and in those gardens which, by the same authority, are not gardens. It is our fate to be divided in politics as far as the poles asunder from Lord John Manners ; but we do him sim ple justice when we say that we are not sur prised at his generous defence of the rights of the public, whose comfort and happiness Mr. Cowper and his friends hold so cheap. Whatever may be, to our thinking, Lord John Manners's failings as a politician, he is too genuine an aris tocrat to abet a paltry encroachment which a purse-proud epicier might be ashamed to commit. No ; it is not the much-abused aristocracy, in any authorised sense of the word, for whose favour Mr. Cowper has catered and canvassed so frivo lously and so unscrupulously—it is the great Snob interest—the brilliant Stuckupocracy, the power ful tribe of Fungi, to whose vulgar love of osten tation he has pandered, and whose patronising corn. placency he has conciliated with evident success. It is the Snobs, who claim the supreme right to prance and caracol before astonished nurserymaids, and to display the horsemanship of the haute ecole to admiring women and helpless children, under the shade of Kensington-gardens, ameng, the quiet haunts of the poor, the sickly, and the infirm, and who cannot be content with the stare, the blaze, and the scandal of Rotten-row. _ _ To the great Snob interest, however, it is only fair to add another, to whose influence, in a ques tion of this nature, no social reformer can be in sensible. And Mr. Cowper, we know, is a social reformer. We speak of course of the great Demi rep interest; of what at Paris might be denomi nated the Rigolboche persuasion. With these comme it en faut members of society Rotten-row is some thing more than an institution—it is a busin ess; and as Mr. Cowper is also a sanitary reformer, it may be that the shady avenue of the Gardens is purposely surrendered to the suitors of Th a i s an d Lais in order to purify our moral Serpentine by diverting it into more sequestered path s . W e are anxious to imagine the best we can for Mr. Cow per; for nothing can be flimsier than the imperti nence of his apologists, while nothing can be more audacious. One contemporary, for instance, who mounts an uncommonly till animal on Ails occa sion, pretends to assume that people who walk in the Gardens and desire to retain their quiet enjoy ment, know nothing of the que s ti on; th a t a few families in the surrouding parishes are the only people who visit the Park and have a monopoly of its enjoyment. These are pretty strong assump tions; but what shall we say of an attempt to re verse the question at issue by representing the en croachment of a few hundred riders on the Gardens as a popular advantage—as a concession of Mr. Cowper's, in the interest and for the sake of the general public ? So that according to this defini tion" the public" a re th e f e w who ride, and the " aristocrats" are the many who walk. This may be a capital joke for a mounted cynic ; but Mr. Cowper will do well to listen to less dangerous logic, though it be conveyed in the plain language of a sermo pedestris. After all, the Chief Commis sioner has probably achieved his object; his lofty soul has emerged from the mists of a popularity too like indifference, and has bravely confronted a rising storm of public dissatisfaction and disgust at an encroachment which was not called for, is not wanted, is of a doubtful advantage to very few, of positive annoyance to numbers. The petitions against it do not of course come from Cumberland, or Connaught, or Caithness, but only from Pad dington, Marylebone, and Kensington ; whilst the petitions in its behalf are actually touted for, as we are confidently assured, by paid servants of the public. Meanwhile the avenue from Kensington to Bayswater, between the Broad walk and the Round Pond, is already a quagmire, and the foot paths are becoming a labyrinth of sheep-pens.— Daily News.

RYDE, FRIDAY EVENING. The race for the £5O prize for cutters belonging to the Royal Victoria Yacht Club was left unfinished in yester day's dispatch in consequence of the departure of the boat for Portsmouth, but it terminated in a manner which was rather unexpected, and for once "the old Arrow" has been compelled to surrender the prize. After rounding the Nab sight-ship for the second time she was upwards of nine minutes a-head of the Audax, when she carried away her gafftopsail halyards, which, after considerable delay, was in some degree repaired by rigging a new jib, but this accident had given the Audax a fine opportunity of overhauling her, though not to such an extent as to give her the first place. Having proceeded in this way for a few minutes, the Arroiv was rapidly widening the distance betwema her and the Audax, when off Anglesey she carried away her bobstay. Another interruption took place, and she was compelled to sail the remainder of the course with her jib half set. Not withstanding this she showed her superiority by coming in first, and but for the allowance of time which she had to make to the Audax, would still have obtained the prize. The time of arrival on the completion of the second round was as under : Arrow 5 39 0 Audax 5 43 0 The Julia gave up shortly - after going the first round. The allowance of time between the different vessels was as follows : M. S. The Julia to allow the Arrow 2 0 Ditto ditto ditto Audax lO 21 Arrow to allow the Audi) x Therefore with this allowance the Audax won the prize by about four minutes, but which for the above-mentioned untoward events must have gone to the Arrow, as she had it entirely in her own hands. The race of to-day was for a prize of £5O, for which the following vessels contended : Yacht. Owner. Flag. Z ouave R. Arabin, Esq. French tricolour. Ella The second round was concluded as under : x. IL S. Zouave 3 51 30 ........ Ella The prize, therefore, goes to the Zouave, who, in addition to the allowance of time to the Ella, bad six minutes to spare. The afternoon was devoted to boat rases and other aquatic sports, and, notwithstanding the prevalence of a strong cold wind hom tho AV.N.W., the pier was crowded by fashionables. In the course of the afternoon the new life-boat presented by the Royal Victoria Yacht Club was exhibited off the pier It was subjected to a variety of experiments, being frequently upset, and she righted herself with great rapidity. She will be stationed Rear to Black Gang Chine, at the back of the island, and will no doubt be of great assistance in the preservation of human life. About £l,OOO have been sub scribed for the purpose of paying the men to look after the boat and to form the crew. The experiments yesterday gave the highest satisfaction. THE LEANDER CLUB COAT AND BADGE. Yesterday the annual contest amongst watermen's ap prentices for a coat, badge, and freedom, presented by the Leander Club, was rowed from Westminster to Putney, with the following results : H. Styles, Isleworth P. Cole, Chelsea C. Brown, Richmond 3 J. Farr, Battersea W. Wallinger, Paul's Wharf E. Wright, Bankside J. It. Beckett, Lambeth .......... Mr. J. Perish, coxswain of the Leaader Club, was the manager of the race, which is always looked forward to with much interest, and the Venus steamer, Captain Sharplin, accompanied it. Brown was the favourite, being bathed at even against the field. Immediately after the start, which was well effected, Brown and Styles singled themselves out, and made a close and fine race for first place, till off Nine-elms pier, when Styles began to clear him, and taking the lead, kept it, and won by a couple of hundred yards. Cole came up to Brown hand over hand at Cubitt' s a nd they rowed scull and scull half a mile, when Cole got the second place, and held it. Farr, at first was close with Brown, and rowed a smart race, but could not maintain it, and fell astern ; the next two men were close together and were fairly matched.

Every Englishman will be glad to hear that the bravery of the small band of our countrymen al ready in the ranks of Garibaldi elicited his heartiest praise at Melazzo. That famous shot, Captain Peard, was made a Colonel for his conduct (always intrepid) on that day which saw the standard of the Sicilian patriots wave over Messina. Colonel Dunne, who won the Victoria Cross, commands a corps in Garibaldi's army. Another Englishman, Colonel Forbes, is commandant of the town and fortress of Melazzo. A document arrived yesterday in London, in which the great Italian General ex presses the highest admiration of his British volun teers. Captain Styles, formerly of the Fusilier Guards, and who carries on his breast the Crimean medals of England and Turkey, and now of Gari baldi's staff, has arrived in London for a few days, and will enable the riflemen of the metropolis to judge of the lightness, grace, and remarkably pic turesque effect of the Gariboldian uniform. The gallant captain landed with Garibaldi at Marsala, and was in the actions at Calatafimi, Palermo, and the crowning battle at Melazzo. There is no doubt that if any of our volunteers, with a turn for ad venture and some little military training, should fancy to exchange for a time the battle-grounds of Hampstead or Bromley for those of Calabria at this holiday season, they would receive a warm wel come from Garibaldi. Captain Styles would, we are sure, be happy to give any explanations on this subject that might be desired. To have fought under Garibaldi will one day be thought one of the proudest memories a man can boast of.—Daily News. .. , , A - . - e ~-!--,- - - C .------- A K ( .e.--z - -e'- 7 , , - ---) 2 , 4 E ‘1 S PAPER ( , ki...... - ..; - . 7 ,/_ FOLIC TELLIGENCE ' - I' '' '- ''''' , •. . 4... : ::- - :;':. --- 4 ' 4.-. • --.. •-srA.: . 1 , ;•1\ ' ' •••-'-',. ;.,. , .

The case had been repeatedly remanded at the instance of the defendant, who always contended, through Mr. Lewis who appeared for him, that if he had an opportunity afforded him to examine the complainant's books he should be able to establish. his innocence by making it clear that he had paid away in complainant's business at various times the, whole of the money which he was charged with. embezzling. He alleged, too, that with the view to. deceive a person inthe country, for whom the com plainant acted as agent, the complainant had syste matically omitted receipts and payments from his accounts, to which he (the defendant), who acted. as his cashier for some time, and kept his books,, was privy against his mind. The complainant, on the other hand, always denied and ridiculed that allegation, but evaded the questions put to him to such an extent as to draw down upon himself a sharp rebuke from Sir R. Carden, wholirst heard the case. Eventually, however, at the suggestion of the Lord Mayor, on whom the final adjudication of the case devolved, the complainant granted the requi site permission unconditionally ; and he and the defendant, each assisted by an accountant of their own choice, went over the disputed accounts. The result of this examination was that yesterday Mr. Lewis, on the part of the defendant, put in a state ment of accounts, showing, on the one hand, that the total amount received by the defendant for his master, and not entered in the books, was £l7O 16s. 4d., and that he had paid away for his master, and not entered in the books, £l7l 13s. 7d. ; so that, upon that state of facts, and it was scarcely, if at all, questioned by the complainant's accountant, there was a slight balance in favour of defendant. There was then a dispute about £l3 155., which the com plainant charged the defendant with misappropriat ing, but that was eventually abandoned by the complainant ; so that, in the end, the case fell to the ground ; and the Lord Mayor, amid some manifesta tion of applause, discharge d the defendant. PRICE 4 D . STAMPED, 51). SUMMER .ASSIZES. HOME CIRCUIT.—GUILDFORD, Aug. 10. (Before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn and Special Juries.) FRAY F. YOULES. This action, which was partly heard on Monday and Tuesday, was resumed yesterday. Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Robinson appeared for the plaintiff, and Sergeant Parry, Mr. Joyce, and Mr. Jones Levi for the defendant. The action it will be remembered was brought by the plaintiff, who was formerly a lady's maid in the service of Lord and Lady Zetland, to recover damages from the defendant, who is an attorney, for having compromised an action she had brought against the Earl and Countess for detaining clothes and money, and jewellery belonging to her, with out her sanction. Sergeant Parry yesterday proceeded to address the jury for the defendant, who, he said, instead of having neglected the interest of the plaintiff, or damaged her in any manner, had in reality been prosecuted by her without the slightest grounds, and he could only account for her conduct by the supposition that her mind was distem pered. He then referred to the nature of the action, and said it appeared to him that the plaintiff by her own evidence had put herself out of court, for she would not venture to deny that she had sanctioned the arrange ment that was come to, and he believed that if his learned friend had acted according to the dictates of his own good sense and discretion he would long ago have retired from the case. With regard to this transaction Mr. Voules had actually paid £2OO in costs out of his pocket in the actions against Mrs. Potter and Lord Zetland, and he refused to have anything to do with a compro mise until Sergeant Wilkins, who was Miss Fray's counsel, expressed his opinion that it would be madness to proceed with the action, that she was sure to be nonsuited, and that the only course for her to take was to accept any offer that might be made to her. Even then it was all done upon Ser geant Wilkins's responsibility, and he explained her position to her, and the plaintiff consented to the offer, and an endorsement to that effect was made upon his brief, and also upon that of Mr. Do3le, who was also one of her counsel. He said it appeared to him that the plaintiff was a most dangerous woman, that she was bringing actions against every one with whom she came in contact, and that he himself, or even the jury, might think themselves lucky if they escaped from being dragged into litigation by her. Mr. Johnstone, a gentleman who acted as manag ing clerk to the defendant in 1855, was then exa mined, and he stated that he received the instruc tions from Miss Fray, in reference to the actions against Mrs. Potter and Lord and Lady Zetland, but at that time she did not mention a word about spirit-rapping or gambling in the establishment, but she represented that Mrs. Potter, the house keeper, was jealous of her in respect to Gunn, the groom of the chambers. When the case came on for trial Mr. Voules had expended £2OO out of his own pocket, of which sum the fees to counsel amounted to £lOB. When he was in consultation with Sergeant Wilkins with reference to the case, he said that no jury would believe her story about having 50 sovereigns in a box. The result of the action against Mrs. Potter was, that the jury gave her £lOO damages upon the count for defamation of character, and the verdict was for the defendant upon the counts relating to the money and clothes. Sergeant Wilkins advised the record in the action against Lord Zetland to be withdrawn, on the ground that Miss Fray had been contra dicted by six witnesses, and that it was use less to go on with it. A rule nisi for a new trial in Potter's action was obtained on the following morning, and while this matter was standing over, the other action against Lord Zetland came on for trial at her earnest solicitation, but all Miss Fray's counsel agreed that there was very little chance of success either upon the law or the facts, and they strongly advised her to accept any offer of com promise that might be made. It was under these circumstances that an offer was made by Lord Zetland's solicitor to pay £3OO to settle all the actions, and Sergeant Wilkins said it would be madness to refuse it. The plaintiff would not at first listen to the proposition, but Sergeant Wil kins had a long conference with her, and convinced her that she had no other course to pursue, and she then consented to the arrangement. (Mr. John stone here produced the briefs of the learned coun sel, upon which an endorsement to the effect stated had been made by them. He also produced an affidavit of the plaintiff, in which she, herself, ad mitted that she consented to the arrangement.) The witness went on to state that he believed his lordship, who was counsel for the Earl of Zetland, was himself present when the arrangement was come to between the counsel on both sides. GUILDHALL—Patrick Sullivan and John Foley, a couple of stalwart Irishmen, were charged. before Alderman Conder with the following brutal and savage assault upon a young woman of the name of Sullivan : Julia Sullivan, who appeared with an extensive wound upon the right side of her forehead, about half-an-inch in width and three inches in length, said she was standing at her own door, in Union court, Holborn, about seven o'clock on Saturday evening, when the prisoners came up the court, and called out for the best Kerry men to come out and fight them. After a while they went away, but returned in a short time„one being armed with a shovel and the other with a pair of tongs. Mrs. Shannon, a neighbour, was standing also at her own door, when Sullivan threw the tongs at her. Com plainant, with others, endeavoured to get the tongs from them, and, failing in doing so, she then went in search of a policeman, and when she came back she found Mrs. Shannon in danger of being assaulted and tried to pull her away from them, upon which Sulli van struckher (complainant) upon the forehead with the shovel. The blow stunned her for the moment, she reeled, and was near falling, when Foley struck her on the arm, then upon the shoulder, and finally upon the back of the head with the tongs. She was just able to walk down the curt to go for a police man, and on the way she met a man named Sulli van, who, seeing the blood flowing; from her head, advised her to go to a hospital. She accordingly went to the hospital, which she was not able to leave till this morning. M's. Shannon was examined in corroboration of the complainant's story, after which Mrs. Sullivan was called on behalf of the pri soners, and said she had. IT.O drinking with them on Saturday night, and took them to her own house in Union-court, to get them a cup of tea. Directly Mrs. Shannon saw them she sent for all her friends to come and murder them ; and young Jack Shan non, her son, threatened to do for them. Mary Shannon had the tongs and struck Foley with them on the head, and he put his 'lards behind him and said he would never strike a woman. Mrs. Shan non's friends then made their appearance armed with full ginger-beer bottles, which flew about like cannon balls. The tongs belonged to her, but she could not say how Mary Shannon got them. Julia Sullivan, another of the clan, but no rela- tion to either side, said she heard one of the pri soners call out for the best Kerry man, and Mrs. Shannon replied that she was a woman who was able to stand up in her clothes any day against the best of them. She then struck Sullivan with the tongs, and although he had got the, i shovel he did not strike her. John Sullivan was then called, and although it was stated by all parties that he could speak Eng lish as well as anyone, he persisted in answering every interrogatory in his native Irish, which was, of course, perfectly unititelligible to the Court, and he was therefore ordered to leave the witness box, Alderman Conder said this was a Most scanda lous outrage, and the conduct of the prisoners in getting drunk and fighting unoffending women was most disgraceful. They seemed to have no power over their own actions except to do mischief. As Sullivan appeared to have acted much worse than Foley, he should make a difference in the sentence, and he therefore committed Sullivan for six months, and Foley for three months, with hard labour. The Lord Chief Justice said he did not remember whether he was present, but he knew that he was very angry that such a compromise was made. Mr. Johnstone went on to state that upon the trial that took place in that coart upon the action for the £5O promissory note, the plaintiff, in her examination, admitted that she was aware of the arrangement, and that she had consented to it. After the transaction had been completed Miss Fray was constantly talking about it, and appeared pleased to think that she had put Lord and Lady Zetland to very great expense, and said that no doubt his lordship had a very large fee. (A laugh.) The Lord Chief Justice, to whom his original brief in the cause had been handed to explain some portion of the proceedings, said that did not ap pear to be so. The fee was a very moderate one. (A laugh.) In answer to questions put by the learned judge, Mr. Johnstone stated at the trial at Guildhall, Miss Fray, in her evidence, did not say a word about spirit rapping or gambling, or that an im proper intimacy existed between Dr. Malcolm and Lady Zetland. By Serjeant Parry—Dr. Malcolm, when he was examined at the trial, said that the plaintiff was labouring under a diseased'mind. The statements were positive:yr contradicted by that gentleman, and every other person whom she had referred to. Mr. Voules, the defendant, wa's then examined, and he confirmed the evidence of Mr. Johnstone. The jury here interposed, and inquired of his lordship whether it was necessary to hear any more of the case. AVESTMINSTER.—ExTRAOE,DINAnY AFFAIR. —Thomas Constable, a grey-haired, mild-looking man, attired in a blue frock, was charged with creating a great deal of terror under the following circumstances : Caroline Exhall, a smart, dapper little girl of 18, who described herself as the daughter of a shoe. maker in the neighbourhood of the Old Kent-road, said she had left her home a month ago, and had lived with the defendant under promise of marriage; and two or three days ago her sister, aged 16, came, with her father's consent, to live with her at a coffee shop defendant had taken, at 1, Oakley terrace, Chelsea. On Thursday afternoon com plainant heard her sister scream, and going to the spot found defendant conducting himsc if ia a very indecent way to her sister. Defendant then seized an enormous bowie knife, sharpened the edge of it, and then approaching made a stab at her, and the point of the knife cut her dress, although she re ceded a little. He then fastened a belt round him with two bowie knives and a revolver in it, and paraded himself in front of the house. Then he took off the things and lay down on the bed, and finding be had no weapons with him she awoke him, and asked him for money to enable her to return home. He had frequently before threatened to cut her to pieces, and she and everybody in the house feared that when night came and all were asleep something dreadful would happen. Further evidence was given showing that so much consternation was caused by defendant's extraor dinary conduct that some of the neighbours went to the police station and entreated the police to come and take him into custody. The knives and revolver were produced by the police, and it was clearly shown by the sister that defendant had put his hand upon her in a very in decent manner. The Chief Justice said he did not like to interpose or to stop such an inquiry. Mr. Kennedy then rose, and said he was very glad the jury had interposed, as he was placed in a very peculiar position. He now, however, felt him self justified in saying that when he came into court he had not the remotest idea of the defence that could be established, and that if he had been aware of the strength of the evidence for the de fendant, he would never have undertaken the case. He was, of course, only anxious to do his duty, and it appeared to him that, upon the facts now before the Court, he ought not to proceed any further. The Lord Chief Justice said he could only express his opinion that the learned counsel had conducted the case with the most exemplary propriety. It appeared to him after the evidence that had been given that it would only be a waste of time, and he would be stultifying himself if he proceeded any further. Defendant declared that he had always treated the complainant very kindly, and denied that he had been guilty of auy impropriety to her sister. He had brought the knives and pistols from Aus tralia, and neither attempted to stab, nor had any notion of hurting complainant; he merely got the things out for a joke. Complainant said it would have been no joke if he had cut her head off, which she really believed he would have done in the night.• Mr. Arnold thought his conduct very unbecom ing and extraordinary, and calculated to create great alarm. Supposing he had not meant to do any harm, it was most dangerous f o r 9 person to be brandishing about such weapons, which no Eng lishman needed here, and it was n atural that the complainant and others in the house should feel great alarm. As no specific charge had been made against defendant for the indecent a ssault upon the sister, he (Mr. Arnold) wou ld not punish him for th at, but should require h i m to find bail. He was committed in default. Sergeant Parry said he thought it only due to his learned friend, Mr. Hawkins, who'se name had been mentioned by the plaintiff in her examination, to say that he was prepared to contradict all she had said. He had never spoken to Lord Zetland in his life, and had not only never shot with him in September or October, but certainly had never done so at the Easter vacation. (A laugh.) Mr. Bovill, who, it appeared, had watched the proceedings on behalf of Lord and Lady Zetland, said that the plaintiff had made many slan derous statements in reference to the esta blishment of his lordship, and he was most anxious to state that they were utterly false, and that if there had been any opportunity of doing so, they would have been positively contradicted. The Lord Chief Justice said he thought that any contradiction of such statements as those made by the plaintiff was quite superfluous. The jury said they were of the same opinion. A verdict was then returned for the defendant. - HOPLEY, THE CONVICT SCHOO.L,MASTEIt.—Hop emoved on Thursday morn from from the county leT was r prison -at Lewes, where he has been confined s i nce hi s con vectionto the convict prison as Millbank, W es t m i ns t er . popular excitement the prison a u th or iti es con veyed p r isoner to Cook's Bridg,e Station, about three m il e s from the town, to meet the up t ra i n t o L on d on . o a o t i h d a M.
