One correspondent points out that crossings might be made by means of a stem") which should produce perforations. Another, that Cheques intended to be paced through the clearing house might be printed in red, the others being in black. Neither of these methods, however, would afford facilities for OA casual holder of a free cheque to tie it up subsequently, either iu a general way, by !axing the words "and Company, or by making !t special to his own banker. The true plan consists in the use of chemical paper, and if bankers do not Choose to resort to this there need he little sympathy for any losses they may sustain.

(Sittings at Nisi Prin3, at 'Westminster, before Lord . _ Campbell and Special Jury.) HUGHES V. LADY DINORBEN.-LIBEL. The further hearing of this case was again resumed this morning. The court was as densely crowded by fashionably-dressed ladies as on the two previoue days. Mr. Harcourt Walker, the defendant's solicitor, was recalled, and examined by Mr. Bovill relative to the fol lowing persons having examined the anonymous letters who had not been called for the defendant, viz., Lady James, Lady De Burg, Lady Halkett, Mr. Clayrack, of the post-nffice, Mrs. Smyth, Mr. H. Mitchell, Lady Dinorbeu's land agent, and several others. Re-examined by Mr. Macaulay—All those persons, but two, were on the brief, and would have been called if the case had not been closed last night at seven o'clock. Some of these personages were now in court, but in con sequence of the close of the defence last night he did not give the notice to attend tc-day. Mr. Macaulay said it would be necessary for him to call snore witnesses for the defendant. Mr. H. Mitchell, cousin of the defendant, deposed that he bad had the management of Lady Dinorben's estates. He had frequently seen her write, and bad received letters from her. The letters to Lord Ravens worth and Mr. Liddell were not written in Lady Dinorben's character of writing. He knew persons' writing which very much resembled her ladyship's hand- writing. By Mr. James—Who are they ? Witness—Lady Dinorben's nieces, Mies Smyth and the late Miss Wallis. By Mr. James—Any other persons ? Witness Yes, Lady Dinotben'a sister, the Princess of Capua. Mr. James—Then it is a sort of fainily handwriting. Witness continued—He had received letters from these parties, and at first, before he I,)oked at the signa ture, he was puzzled to know from whom they came. He could not say if there was any peculiarity about the "w" or any other letter in Lacly Dinorben's hand- writing. Mr. Wm. Smith, bailiff to Lady anorben for_the last three years. During that time he had received_ e number of letters from her ladyship on business. lie did not believe the letters produced to be in her lady ship's handwriting. They were certaihly not in her handwriting. Mr. Macaulay objected to the introductioe of such remarks. Lord Campbell said it was not a fair topic to be ad dressed to the jury. Mr. James proceeded to examine the reasons for bringing this action, arising from the renewal of the dander in 1857, relative to the Anglesea election which w it ie re a d s n n e e c c e e s s s s a a r r y y btyo the e o p, de m a a n n d d sw c of c h w oi a s s m f u y r t t b h . e r T r ebne ,e a l substantial question for their consideration was, whether they could doubt, upon the result of the evi dence that bad been laid before them, that Lady Dinor hen'is hand wrote those letters. There was intrinsic moral evideoce in the letters themselves that spoke aloud. There was evidence in them, to his mind, that Lady Dinorben suggested the wicked malice of these letters, and there was intrinsic evidence in them that no one but Lady Dinorben was interested in writing them. The learred gentleman then referred to the contents of the letters, and asked the jury if it had ever been their lot to have received an anonymous letter, and that instinct from the contents lid not at once point to the moral assassin of their reputation. There was evidence that Lady Dinorben wrote the anonymous letter received by Miss Wallis, and he convicted Lady Dinorben of having written the.te letters, not on the evidence of two witnesses, but upon her own testimony, and her own acts. There was unhappiy a morbid feeling existing both in some men and women of taking pleasure in mischief, and people of fortune like Lady Dinorben were not re moved from that morbid desire. The learned gentle man next referred to the handwriting, and the evidence of the experts called by plaintiff, and comp'ained that the exp-rts to whom the letters were submitted by the defendant bad not been called. Not a single letter, document, or cheque of Lady Dinorben's handwriting had been produced for the information of the jury, and to enable them to compare them with the libels. There must be letters in the poes , s-ion of friend?, and there must be many documents with her ladyship's hand writing in one of those dark, ominous-looking boxss that were found in attorneys' offices, in the pose scion ,f defendant's attorney ; and the absence of the pro duction was more conclusive evidence of guilt than any other that could be produced. The learned gentleman laid great stress on the peculiarity of the letter " w" and which, he said, the defendant by her tell and her witnesses bad failed to explain away, .lthough Mr. Conyingham, chief clerk in the foreign lepartmea, had stated that he had seen a similar tetter in a South American and a Chinaman's writings. fie trusted the jury would deal fearlessly with this case sa he did. He said that a woman who would sit down and pen such venomous slander would not hesitate to deny it to avoid the penalty. Everything she bad was at stake on this occasion, and the woman who would spread venom into the family of my Lord Ravens worth, Mr. Lidded, and into the family of a young and affectionate wife—the woman who would sit down deliberately and write such a letter would, but for fear of the consequences, poison the sacramental sup, and eist fail to deny it. A woman who would commit the ,4reatest of all moral assassination, would not be de terred from coming forward and simper out &denial that -he had not seen the letters, nor knew anything about them. He called upon the jury to fearlessly do their duty, and by their verdict declare that Lady D:norben's hau I, and her band alone, wrote those anonymous letters. (Applause.) Lord Campbell, in summing up, said the painful and onportant duty involved upon them of determining a pure question of fact, which belonged exclusively to them, and upon which be should abstain from giving any opi nion whatever. If they considered the plaintiff had made out that either of the letters were written by tie defendant, he was entitled to the verdict. It had been truly said that there was nothing to bring home the writing of the letters to the defendant except the sins:- iarity of handwriting, and also that no adequate motive had been assigned for such conduct on the part of Lady Dinorben, and certainly .f she was aware that Mr. Hughes was tenant in tail, and could dispose of the estates, there was no motive for her ladyship to endeavour to pre.- vent his marriage. But if, in the absence of adequate motive, the evidenoe was so strong as to rem aye every reasonable doubt from their mind, they would come to the actual conclusion that she wrote the letters. At the same time he must warn them against being guided by mere conjecture or suspicion. It must be only on posi tive proof, that would convice all real , nable men, that Lady Dinorben was the author of the letters that they should return a verdict against her. The nol,le and learned lord then read over the evidence and in conclusion said be respectfully invited them to r.-tire, and take with them the admitted letters and the anonymous letters, assisted with the photographs and to well weigh in their own minds the evidence on both •ides, bearing in mind the large number of witnesses that bad been called who said the anonymous letters were not in the handwriting of Lady Dinorben, and her ladyship's own evidence that she did not write them. It was for them to form an opinion on the evidence, and come to a conclusion thereon. . By Mr. Bovill—Neither of them are like Lady Dinor ben's handwriting. He never noticed any peculiarity about the letters of Lady Dinorben's handwriting. He thought the anonymous letters were not in a dieguised hand. _ _ _ Lady De Borgo, examined by Mr. Vernon Harcourt —She had known the defendant since witness was a child. Sbe had not received many letters from her, but she was well acquainted with her ladyship's handwriting. She had already examined, the two letters in the declara tion and she was convinced they were not in her lady ship's handwriting, or her style of expression. Distinctly the letters are not in Lady Dinorben'e handwriting. By Mr. James—Should you say the lettere are in a disguised hand ? Witness—l am not sufficiently acquainted with dis guised hsnds to form an opinion. (Laughter.) I should say they were written in a natural hand. Lady James, examined by Mr. Macaulay— She was wife of Sir Kingston James, who was examined yester day. She was connected by family with Lady Diuorber. She was well acquainted with her ladyship's handwrit ing. She had bean familiar with it for 15 years. The two letters produced were certainly not in Lady Dinorben'e handwriting. Cross-examined by Mr. B ivill—She could not see the slightest similarity in the two letters t ) Lady Dinorben's handwriting. Her opinion was, the letters were not in the slightest degree like Lady Dinorben's handwriting. She believed the handwriting was disguised a little. She did not see one letter that resembled her ladyship's hand writing. She formed that opinion from her intimate knowledge of her ladyship's handwriting, Mrs. Smyth, examined by Mr. Vernon Harcourt— She was cousin of Lady Dinorben. She was well ac quainted with Lady Dinorben'e handwriting. She bad constantly corresponded with her for the last seven years. The two letters, the subject of the action, were not in Lady Dinorben's handwriting. The letter addressed to Miss Wallis was not iu her ladyship's handwriting. Cross-examined by Mr. James—She was related to and very intimate with Lady Dinorben. She told Lady Dinorben that she (witness) bad seen Miss Wallit's letter after her return from St. Leonards, after Mies Wallis's death. She never told Lady Dinorben that Miss Wallist's brother charged her ladyship with being its author. Mr. Wallis told witness that be believed that her ladyship was the author of the letter, b e was acc u s ing several persons of having Bent it. She abstained from telling La , ly Dinorben, because she did not wish to breed disunion between her Ladyship and her nephew, Mr. Wallis. When Mr. Wallis showed her two lines of the letter she told him she did not know the handwriting. Witness resided at Brompton, and Lady Dinorben had never for warded letters to wit nese to be posted at Brompton. [ qrs. Wallie's letter bears the Brompton post mark]. Lady Dinorben was frequently at witness's house, but she never wrote a letter there. Witness bad charge of Lord Dinorben's lunatic child by the first wife. Re-examined by Mr. Nlacauley.—When Mr. Wallis showed her the latter she said if anything it was one of the family's writing. She never at any time considered it Lady Dinorben's v%riting. Lady Halkett, ex tinined by Mr. Macaulay.—She was the widow of the late General Sir Odin Halkett. See had been acquainted with Lady Dioorben since 1825, and bad frequently corresponded with her. Wit ness was well acquainted with Lady Dinorben'e writing. The two letters referred to above were not in he Lady ship's handwriting—decidedly not. Cross-examined by Mr. Bevill--There was not the least singularity in the handwriting ; witness had not brought with her any of the letters she had received from Lady Dinorben ; she thought the letters in question were not in a disguised hand, Mr. Macaulay then proceeded to sum up the evidence on the part of the defendant. He called the attention of the jury to the present aspect of the case to what it at first assumed. Fur two days they had had to try a ques • tion of handwriting, and now the question was, to which side credence was to be given. He analysed the evi dence f r the plaintiff e f the manner in which they spoke to the handwriting. Ali of them, he said, were tainted with bias, and were unable to form a competent opinion on the handwriting, observing that the letter respecting the Anglesea election, which had given rise to the calumny against Lady Dinorben, and attributed to her ladyship, had been abandoned. Tne evidence he had laid before the jury for the defendant was as strong and as cogent as with propriety could be given to a jury upon subjects such as these, to prove her ladyship's innocence of the charge imputed to her. He did not le vite them to consider and discuss the question of handwriting in a petty niggling curl or farm of a certain letter, but to con sider and decide the question of the general expression of the writing. All that the evidence resolved it• elf into was this, tbat La ly Dinorben used a peculiar form of writ ing wh i c h was adopted in these letters, but that was no proof that her ladyship must have written them. No reliance could be placed on the paper of one letter and _ the envelope being of the character supplied to Lady Dinorben, because the shopman stated that they sold of that particular envoi )pe at least 200,000 a year. The learned counsel defended the conduct of Colonel Smyth, Lady Dinorben's brother, who, he said, had acted ae a brother ought to have acted on bearing such a calumny on the character of his sister. The real ques tion for their consideration was the motives that could have led her ladyship to write these letters. The in ternal evidence did not show that any motive could then ladyship mind, because immedi have operated on her la d y .. ately on the death of theilunatic lord he became possessed of the estates, and were at his entire disposal, and his marriage had nothing to do with the acquisition of the estates. It was too bad to attribute them to her lady ship, for there was abundant internal evidence in the letters to show that they came from a quarter where there was a strong derireto prevent the mei riage at that time, or with the particular lady to whom h e was engaged. All he claimed for Lady Dinorben was, that she was entitled to the same credit as any ordmary witness that had not been impeached, and not to discredit her be cause she was interested in the case. She was not to be discredited unless she was contradicted, and he chal lenged the plaintiff to show any one matter of fact in which there was a balance of testimony —oath against oath. Mr. James, in the absence of the Attorney• General, addressed the jury on the whole of the case. He denied 1 thin was a malicious attack by Mr, Hughes on hie rela tive. It was not a question of L. s. d.. but one not only affecting the character of Lady Dinorben--which he admitted was at stake, and that their verdict required all their intrepidity and firmness —but it was also a question of deep interest to society at large. It was a question whether titled slanderers should be permitted to pour their anonymous venom into the peace of any family they might select. It was a question that was not to be decide 1 by a family quorum, as Mr. Macaulay had suggested, or in any boudoir in Bel grave square, but by the stern sense of justice in an Eogtish jury. It was a question whether these libels, first addressed to my Lord Ravensworth, and after wards to Mr. Hughes, which, if believed, might have brought unhappiness into this family for ever, alma' it be passed by with impunity, or if a jury should be called upon to pronounce an opinion on them. This The jury retired at 20 minute!' to two o'clock, and, after an absence of 10 minutes, returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff. The damages were taken, by consent, at 40s.

MARLBOROUGH COLLEGE.—The annual distribution of prizes at this college took place on Tuesday last, in the presence of hie Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge and several members o f th e ar i stocracy. The ceremony derived peculiar interest from the fact tbat the late head master of tke school a va il e d hi mself of the occas i on to take his farewell o f th e esta bli s h ment preparatory to proceeding to the scene of his new labours as Lord Bishop of Calcutta. Af ter th e di str ib ution o f t h e pr iz s, his lordship received some very handsome and highly gratifying testimonials of esteem both horn the old Marlhurians and from those who have lately been under his care. The gift of the old Mailburians consisted of a richly chased silver waiter, bearing the arms and seal of i Marlborough C o ll ege , an d an appropriate Latin nscpp lion. Tne testimonial of the present pupi e com prised two pieces of plate : one was a splendid candelabrum, also forming an epergne, of an entirely new design,b.d ap propriately taken from the Indian lil y . T he t plecr was a silver inkstand, with classica l representations of the tour elements in relief. All these works were exe cuted by Mr. C. F. Ha ncock, the eminent silversmith and jeweller, of Bruton -street, Bontl-sreet, whose skill and taste were, as usua l, conspicuous in the design and ex, cution of each. Tirit NEW NATIVE ABET IN INDIA.—The full Swing is from the letter of a Staff officer of high rank :---‘ We are gradually raising a larger native twee than we had befdre. Every statio n has its lev y , all armed with per cussion muskets, and properly drilled. Ido not think a soul in the country knows the number of armed na• tives in our service. It is a sad mistake permitting it. What with police, mounted police, North-West Pro vinces p olice, police resullabs, and such like, in addition to levies, every civil officer is raising an army of his own, under no control, and it will end with our having an enormous armed force, not coining within the provisions of the Mutiny Act. The civil officers will never give up their p3wer to raise men in this way it it is not aeon stopped. I do hope Sir Cohn will protest against it. I know it is being noticed ; but unless something is done soon to stop it there will be a difficulty in getting rid of the men, to say nothing of the impolicy of turnii.g drilled men adr.ft at present." The precise amount of specie by the oat-going mail is 202,3751., all silver except 303/. in gold.; of *hick 173,7731. is for India, and 23,602/. for China and the S raits. APOTHECARIES' HALL—The following are the names of gentlemen who pa•sed their examination in the acienee and pracAce of medicine, and received certifi cates to practise, on Thursday, the 17,11 of Jane : Arthur Benjamin Ewen, Long Sutton, Lincolnshire; John Crew, Tethury, Glocestershire ; Enoch Robinson, Marsden, near Huddersfield ; John Rand, Hadleigh, Suffolk ; William Coyle Dodson, Hamilton-terrace, H ig hbury ; C har l e s Edward Chapman, Preston, Lan cashire ; John Adsetts, Derby ; Harding Rees, Beacons field. The petition presented by Lord Brougham last night cvis one, we find, of considerable importance, and in raving a point of ecclesiastical law. It was the petition „1 J, Wright Wilson, E q., barrister-at-law, complain ing that he had been, as a candidate for the borough near which he resides, attacked for electioneering purpose] by proceedings in Chancery, in which various charges were made, all of which he had the means of re feting, but he had entered into articles of separation from his wife, and there was a decree for specific performance followed by an injunction to restrain him from suing for re-titution of conjugal rights. He appealed to the House of Lor/ls, and when his cancel (Sir F. Kelly and Lord Justice Turner) began to open these matter. of his case Lord Cottenbam said he was with them , there could be no such injunction, therefore the counse l left the case in that respect untouched, and fittes t ' months after Lrd Cotteoham gave hid judg merit, in which, having forgotten what took place at the hearing, he decided against Mr. W. i'son, and in favour cf the injunction, and also njecti g the evidence which his Lordship had said( ought to be admitted. The g to that in the Sheddon ease,ri o ev n an w c h e ic i h s aLlmorodsst Grey,equal LyndLurst, and Brougham endeavoured to obtain jus tice fcr the party, but being outvoted, Sir F. Kelly has now brought in a bill to amend the law in that par ti ular. A n d i t was t h e o bj ect o f M r . W. Wilson's p tition, am ong other things, to obtain a correction of the law so erroneously laid down by Lord Cottenhans, without hearing the argument. The Lord Chancellor, we understand, has issued as order, declaring that, having regard to the present state of the business in the Liverpool District Court of Bank. ruptoy, the vacancy occasioned by the death of Come missioner Stevenson ought net, in his opinion, to b. filled up, and directing that it shall not be filled sp until Rather orders.
