By Ir. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E., And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is tho -production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, - and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and profession al reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who arc subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

Of the cases brought into court 86 per cent. were below £l,OOO, and in 17 per cent. of that per tentage there were no assets at all, the average amount not being above £3OO.

Lord linouGnam thought Parliament would not agree to leave more than two commissioners. That was, however, a point on which he would not offer an opinion, but he was decidedly of opinion that the solicitors should not be deprived of their right of audience.

Peel, push a lady who was present aside, unpin an embroidered toilet, and conceal it under her dress or shawl, and walk away about a dozen yards, when she returned to Lady Peel's stand again and took from it a pair of gloves, which, with the embroidery, he produced; she put - the gloves in the front of her dress also, and was walking towards the orchestra, when she drew a piece of paper from her reticule-bag, and folding the articles she had taken in it placed them in the bag. He then went up to her and asked what she had got in her reticule, and she re. plied, " What I have got there is my own property." He observed, "It calanotbe your own property. I * saw you take it from and. lam a sergeant of police - , and you must sider yourself in my cus tody." She said, " Fut' God's sake don't take me. I will pay any amount for the articles. If You don't take me I'll tell you the truth. I bought them in the baZaar." He asked her to go back, when she begged of him not to take her, and then she said she had picked up the things at a place she pointed out, and which was about 40 or 50 yards from Lady Peel's stall. He (Bell) told her this was impossible, as he had seen her take them fromlady Peel's stall, on which she exclaimed, "Oh, my God, what shall I do, I'll pay any amount of money rather than go to the station. I will leave my gold watch and chain with you for the worth of the articles." He told her he could not take anything, but must take her to the station, which he did, and subsequently took the articles to the stand of Lady Peel, who identified them. He found on the prisoner a purse • containing half-a-crown and two rail way return tickets, and singular enough he. had information from a person whose name and address he had, that a lady had been robbed of a purse containing a half-crown and two railway tickets. Mrs. Myall deposed that she had kept a lodging house at,Sonthend 31 years, and in February last Mrs. Burroughs took a bed-room and sitting-room at her house, Mrs. Burroughs at the time living at 14, Marine-parade, Southend. Witness's house was 13 doors from No. 14, but it had no number ; it was Ivy cottage. The room was taken for a sick gentler n, Dr. Brown. Three days afterwards Dr. Brown came. lie only slept at the house. He took his meals out. A servant from Mrs. Burroughs came and fetched him to breakfast one morning, in case he should miss the train. Witness was paid for a fortnight, but the (lector did not stop all the time, He slept at her house at intervals. When he came home to sleep he did so at about twelve, or a little before. He left witness's house on the sth of March, and she saw him in Southend on the Wednesday following, coming from the train. She took her bill to the house where Mrs. Burroughs lived, and got the money there. She thought Dr. Brown looked very ill. Cross-examined Did not know how long Mrs. Burroughs remained at Southend. Benj. Brown, 27, Adam-street West, Bryanst.ou square—Had formerly a house on Downshire-hill, Hampstead. Dr. Brown took apartments there in March for a lady and her niece, her servant, and a little boy ; they came in the afternoon. Dr. Brown came in the evening and took tea with them. They stopped a fortnight, during which the doctor came there frequently, perhaps every other day ; he took tea with them; he came in a do,;-cart, and took Mrs. Burroughs out on one occasion ; was not sure if any one went with them, certainly no one but the little boy. Once Mrs. Burroughs .went with Dr. Brown and a servant in a cab, to go to London. They gave no reason for leaving; did not know where they went to; their letters were to be forwarded to a lawyer--- , -George Webb, Esq., King-street, Uheapsidc, London. Never saw them since. Mr. LewiS—But the purse you found on this lady is not the one so lust. Sergeant Bell—No, Sir. The purse found on the prisoner 1 find to b:s her own property, though at first I thought it was the one lost. In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis, the Witness further said that on taking the prisoner into custody he took her before the supurintendent, but did not make any statement to that officer. lie did not say he had seen the prisoner in the crowd attempt ing to pick pockets ; but he did say, from heeznan ner of moving; about among the crowd he suspected her of picking pockets. Ile did not say he saw her attempt to pick the pocket of two ladies, and watched her in consequence. He did not say that the purse produced was one of the things he had seen her steal. She (the prisoner) gave her true name and address, and he had been to her address and found that*he was living with her husdand, and had everything that was needed for a lady's comfort. The prisoner did not at first say she picked up the things ; on the contrary, she said they were her own, and that she bought them. There was a crowd about the stall of Lady Peel, and the things might fall by pressure or be brushed off, but this was not the case, as he distinctly - saw the prisoner take the things he produced in the manner he before stated. The lady was much ex cited when he spoke about his being an officer and taking her into custody; mentioned who and what her husband was, and stated his• respectable posi tion in, society, and said she would give anything rather than be charged with such an offence. She also said that she expected her husband in the Palace to join herself and her mother ; and lie (13e11) found that her mother was there, so that this would account for the two railway tickets. Police-constable Stephen Baldwin, 200 P, was next called, but his testimony was a mere corrobo ration of the hit witness, and Bell, at the conelu sion of his evidence, requested a remand. Mr. Lewis, in addressing the court on behalf of William Nevin deposed that he kept a livery stable at Downshire-hill ; recollected Dr. Brown putting up a dogcart and horse at his place about half a dozen times; recollected Mr. Brown and a lady and a little boy going out in the dog-cart once; they were out two hours and got very wet, being caught in a storm. Ellis Kerry, station-master at Southend in the month of March last, as conductor of the telegraph, saw Dr. Brown there. Saw him on several occa sions. He received telegrams addressed to Mrs. Burroughs on Feb. 20 from Dr. Brown. One was sent from Smith to Brown on March 15, one from Brown to Smith on the same date. The messages were sent to the head office. He did not know the contents. John liersty, clerk in the chief office of the tele graph company—The messages were produced, and disclosed nothing further than that Dr. Brown and Mrs. Burroughs were in communication at the period spoken of by the last witness. Jeremiah Brown, innkeeper, at Horsham, said — He kept the Railway Inn. Was the brother of plaintiff, whose maiden name was Brown. She re sided with her mother, sometimes staying with him, from the death of her husband till she went into Dr. Brown's service. Recollected Dr. Brown coming to his house about the 14th, 15th, or 16th Dec. last. He said, " Brown, Mrs. Barnes has :gone back to Burroughs's." He said, " Yes, Mr. Burroughs was left alone, and at the solicitation of Mr. Thomas she went back to take care of the house till he could get some one." Her mother went back and stopped with, her. Dr. Brown said, " By all means fetch her away. I believe Mrs A parnes to be as honest and virtuous a woman as an 7 we have about ; she has always been kind to my children, and served us in an honest upright sort of a manner, and any thing I can do for her I shall be happy to do. The fact is, Mr. Burroughs is infatuated with Mrs. Barnes; lie has tried hard to send Mrs. Burroughs away with me to come on me for damages, and last of all he has turned her out of doors: I believe your sister to be a virtuous woman, but Burroughs is a villein ; get her away." In consequence of some thing he (witness) heard he went to Mr. F. Bur roughs, the attorney, before he heard of this letter. In consequence of these reports his sister had been unable to get a situation. When he heard of this letter he instructed Frank Burroughs to commence proceedings. Cross-examined--First heard of the letter from Dr. Burroughs. Believed he saw it. Had not heard prior to seeing Dr. Brown that Mrs. Bur roughs had ruu off with that gentleman. Re•examined—Dr. Brown said, " Your sister is a virtuous woman, but if people will come forward in a court of justice, what is the use of her asserting her innocence." Mr. W. Lanham Thomas examined—l am Mr. Burroughs' partner. When the servants were about to leave I asked. Mrs. Barnes to stay and take care of the house. She at first refused, but at last assented on the condition that her mother was to be in the house with her, and that arrangement was made. That evening I attended a labour case, and on my return took tea with Mr. Burroughs. That was in the kitchen, because there was no fire in the parlour. Mrs. Barnes and her mother were there. Cross-examined—Dr. Brown came for his boxes. The kitchen door was not locked. Dr. Brown knocked, and came in. I did not know when I made the suggestion about Mrs. Barnes that there had been any quarrel in reference to her. Mr. Bur roughs told me there had been a disturbance be tween himself and his wife, and it had been sug gested she should go away for a few days. Mr. Frank Burroughs, a solicitor at Sydenham, and brother of Mr. Burroughs, the surgeon, said— I went down to Horsham, I believe on the 13th of December, in consequence of a telegram from Miss Smith. Dr. Brown left the same evening, and my brother's wife the following day. I took lodgings for her in Guildford-street. Two or three days after I went with my brother there. I believe he kissed her. He asked her to come back, but she refused unless Dr. Brown . and the children returned. My brother refused to allow him to come back. I had advised her not to leave, and so did Miss Smith; but I said if she was determined to go I would pro tect her. I said she ought to go to her mother and sisters at Charmouth, in Dorsetshire. She would not accede to that. She returned to her husband's house, and left again about the 4th or sth of January. I have never seen her since, and cannot discover where she is now. Cross-examined—l heard of the disagreement between my brother and his wife about Mrs. Barnes from Dr. Brown. When Dr. Brown said she was my brother's concubine, I said, " Why did you not turn her out of the house." Dr. Brown said that my brother had turned round and spoke of his wife's familiarity with him. He told me that Mrs. Burroughs knew of it. The only fact he stated was that my brother had been seen to go into or from the plaintiff's room. I . saw my brother afterwards. He said things should not remain as they were. I believed what Dr. Brown had said until my brother denied it. I advised m y brother to get rid of Dr. Brown. I had several times before that visit sug • his client,-said he had in attendance persons of the highest position to speak to the hitherto irreproach able character of the lady at the bar, who assured him that she was placed there most unjustly. She solemnly declared she had 'picked the things up, and inadvertently placed them in her bag ; hut he trusted his worship would take a liberal view ebbe act, and not deem it 'accessary that the case should be sent for further investigation. Mr. Elliott, however, observed that it, was a ear.ze that, however respectable th po , it ion of the party, must go for trial. lie then remanded the prisoner, but accepted bail, two sureties in J.;500 each, for her attendance on a future day. WANDSWORTH—ANOTIIER STRIKE AMONGST WORKMEN After the disposal of the night charges, William Taylor, one of the summoning officers, informed Mr. Ingham, the sitting magis trate, that there were 32 navvies in the waiting room of the court, and there was also a number of others down stairs who required summonses for wages. He said it appeared that a number of workmen were engaged upon Wimbledon-common in the formation of the butts for the National Rifle Association, and the week before last they were paid by the foreman, who had engaged them, 3s. 641. a-day for their labour. Last week there was a new foreman, and when they went for their wages on Friday night he offered them money at the rate of 2s. and 2s. 4d. per day. They refused to receive it, and had accordingly struck work. Mr. Ingham said he had no doubt all the cases were similar, and therefore there was no occasion for each to take out a summons. One would be sufficient to try the question. The officer was instructed to pick out the most intelligent from amongst the number. A respectable-looking man then came before his worship, and repeated the statement. He also said, that a gentleman rode upon the gro unds that morn ing, and wished to know where the men were, and he was told that it was Monday, and they were drinking. The gentleman said he understood they were gone for summonses, and that the work must not be stopped. Mr. Ingham inquired the name of the person he wished to summon. Th e applicant said Mr. Scott, of Parliament street, as he was the manager. Mr. Ingham said a summons should be granted, and if it was necessary he would grant a summons in each case. LETTER 11 CARRIERS.—With reference to a letter upon this subject, signed " A Rector under the Quan tocks," which appeared in the Times of the 21st April, we are informed on authority that a special inquiry has been made into the case with the following result. The postman referred to walks 18 miles daily (not 22 as stated). His weekly journey therefore is 108 miles, instead of 163, as alleged. The man is in good health, and is in no danger of dying of consumption, and his predecessor is now alive, instead of being dead of that disease, as alleged. The admitted journey, however, is considered too long, and a small addition is to be made to the postman's salary.— Times. CRINOLINE AND HATS IN CHURCH.—At Bow ness Church, a young gentleman put his hat under the seat, and shortly afterwards two prepossessing young ladies sat next him. At the conclusion of the service the ladies left the church first, and the gentleman stopped in search of his hat, and to his surprise found it gone. He called the sexton, and applied to that worthy functionary for advice, who sug gested that it might have been caught in the ladies' crino line, and entangled in the crinoline sure enough it Was. After bobbing against one of the your ladies' legs for a distance of about twenty yards the hat aropped out, much to the surprise and astonishment of thvee following. JtiNE 12, 1860. THE SUN, LONDON, ITESDAY EVENING, THE INSURRECTION IN bleiLl. We receive through Genoa some numbers of the Unita ltaliana of Palermo, publishing various documents connected with the insurrection. One is a proclamation announcing the armistice. It runs thus : " Sicilians—The enemy has proposed an armis tice to us, which in a generous war like that in which we are engaged, I have thought it reason able not to refuse. The interment of the dead, the care of the wounded; in a word, all that is called for by the laws of humanity, has always honoured the valour of the Italian soldier. Besides, the wounded Neapolitans are also our brothers, although they act with cruel enmity, and are now plunged in the darkness of political error ; it will not, however, be long before the light of the national flag will lead them to swell the ranks of the Italian army. In order that the terms of the stipulated convention shall be main tained with good faith, we publish the following article of convention between the undersigned at Palermo, 31st May 1. The suspension of hosti lities shall be prolonged for three days from the present time (noon of the 31st May), at the expi ration of which the General-in-Chief shall scud one of his aides-de-camp in order to fix, by common accord, the hour for the resumption of hostilities. 2. The Royal Bank shall be handed over to the Representative Crispi, Secretary of State, in re turn for a proper discharge, and the detach ment which now guards it shall go to Castella mare with their arms and baggage' 3. The embarkation of the wounded and of families shall be continued, no means being neglected to prevent abuses of any kind. 4. The transport of provisions shall be free for the two belligerent' parties at all hours of the day, every proper ar rangement being made that the measure shall re ceive full effect. 5. Permission is given to exchange the prisoners Mosto and Revilsa, for the first lieu tenant-colonel and another officer—for instance Captain Grasso. _ _ " FRANCISCO CRISFI, Secretary of State of the Provitiorml Government of Sicily; 66 6 FERDINAND° LANZA, General-ill-Chid:" The same journal, in its number of the 3d, pub lishes the following proclamation : " Sicilians—A tempest almost always follows a calm, and we ought to prepare ourselves for the storm, although the desired object be not attained The conditions of the national cause were brilliant ; triumph was secure from the moment when a generous people, trampling under foot humiliating propositions, resolved to conquer or to die. Un doubtedly, our situations is every moment improv ing, but that must not prevent us from doing our duty and securing the triumph of our sacred cause. Get arms and arm yourselves; sharpen your steel, and prepare every means of offence and defence. - v-- - - To shall have time enough for enthusiasm and cheers when the country shall have been cleared of our enemies. Get arms and arm youselves;l repeat. He who does not think of procuring some arm during these three days is a traitor or a coward ' • but the people who fight among the ruins of thetr burnt houses for liberty and for the lives of their wives and children can be neither cowards nor traitors. " GA RIBALDI." Some of the Genoese journals publish the 'following letter from Garibaldi : "My dear Bertani—l authorize you not only to make any advance or any loan on account of Sicily, but also to contract any debt, becausQ we have here immense means to satisfy every one. • " Yours ever, " GARIBALDI." A private letter adds that Garibaldi's officers and those of Lanza's corps entertained each other rcci procally, and that the Neapolitan troops at Palermo certainly inclined to the cause of insurrection, It is stated in a letter from Palermo that ,Gari baldi has placed the Duke do Verdura at the head of the new municipality he has formed in that city. The bombardment did considerable injury to the town, and many houses were in such a dangerous state that the Duke de Verdura has given orders for pulling them down, in order to prevent acci dents. The duke is said to be very popular in Pa lermo, as well as Baron. Pisana, the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The following proclamation has, says the Gazette du Midi, been circulated in Venetia, and may, that journal remarks, explain the military precautions Austria is taking in the province : "Brethren—The signal of redemption will not be long delayed. Austria is endeavouring to crush you, but be of good heart ; let your pa triotic efforts be employed with great firmness in the approaching reawakening of Italy. The un fortunate men who are groaning in the prisons of I'eterwardcin are not only your sons and brothers, but ours; but those who, led on by the brave Gari baldi, and animated by the love of their country, have gone to deliver Sicily, arc they less your brothers than ours ? If you suffer the outrages of servitude, display the pride of martyrs. Dispersed in all the territories of Italy, the raugces of Venice, by sacrifices and courage, have already added to our history its most glorious page ; on the day of insurrection they will know to add to it a second one. That day approaches ! Keep alive in your hearts hatred of the abhorred enemy, and faith in the future of Italy' The magnanimous King who vanquished at Palestro has not ceased to feel his heart beat for you. His hand still holds his sword, and that sword protects our cause !" A Country l; once.—Our home at St. Leonard's was a nondescript sort of d..nicile—half an English farm-house, half a Gothic villa—situated in the neigh bourhood of a vabbit-warren, amid a vast range of hilly and woody country, intersected with gurgling streams and large patches of cultivated land ; sheets of golden wheat fla-bing out between dark brushwood slopes, and emerald fields of turnips, spreading at the feet of the tall, frowning forest monarchs. A noble espalier pear-tree, and a luxuriant vine, trailed all over the white fronts, and many a clustering bunch of luscious purple fruit might be seen in the autumn sunshine, ripening on the gabled roof, resting its juicy weight on the patches of stonecrop, and causing divers speculations among the juniors of the household as to whether there was a passi bility of reaching them from the top casements; and occa sionally they did disappear in a most miraculous manner. There was a rude sort of garden spreading round, where carnations and cabbages, laburnums and lettuces, scarlet beans and sweet-williams, brocoli and black currants, rose trees and radishes, sprang up in plentiful and brilliant con tiguity ; and there was one little corner where some moss coyered flints, a spontaneous profusion of dock-leaves, and an overhanging elder, afforded an asylum for a couple of pet frogs,' to the dismay of certain boarding-school. bred cousins who visited us in the midsummer holidays. One side of this Eden wilderness was bounded by a rip pling stream of lucid water, known as " Miller's Brook," across which, close by the frogs' hermitage, were a couple of rough planks, forming a bridge, leading on to a fresh, grassy bank, where flags, and rushes, and forget-me-nots, grew thick and odorous, under the shadow of poplars and older s ; and beyond lay the "Long Water Meadows," with Dives's farm in the distance: On the other side was an ancient rambling sort of orchard, inclosed with old grey paling, all covered with yellow lichens, and wefted with: wiry ivy, with an occasional azure periwinkle and red dog-, rose peeping out, reminding one of Infancy's blue eyes and ruddy cheeks playing with the wrinkled brow and silver hair of a grandfather. Ay, that was an orchard I where bouncing cats-head apples shook their fists in the nigger faces of muscle-plums ; where green-gages bursting with sugary juice tumbled into the cool grass, and gipsy filberts rattled down about our ears with very gentle assistance then the mulberries and the "swans-egg" pears, and the damsons and the cherries—oh, such cherries!—may-dukes and bigaroons, and black hearts and morellos, hanging like coral and jasperwreaths from the drooping boughs, propped up here and there by a broken rail. Ah, what mouths, what pinafores, what hands, used to be seen in that old orchard during the cherry season; whatmorning gluttony, what evening excesses, were carried on in defiance of all paternal authority and serious prognostications of cholera and sudden death. We taught the very sheep-dog to mumble the delicious food, and old " Watch" was often seen with his grizzled muzzle deeply stained with the for bidden fruit—to say nothing of the pony having real non pareils handed to him, by dozens, through a gap in the paling, and whole capfuls of the finest "Orleans," or melting " swans-eggs," being bestowed in munificent generosity on any ragged wayfarer who looked with longing eycs on our de- predations. This paradise of an orchard led through a 'rate into a lengthy sort of co p se , th e copse l e d i n t o a cloverfield, and the cloverfield skirted a lane with luxuriant hedge-rows, where bees, butterflies, and grasshoppers, made assigna tions with the honeysuckle and sweet •woodruff; where the infant stragglers half hid th emse l ves among t h e wild briefly and tall foxgloves, and sat th rea di ng " c h eeses " from the mallow, or flinging ox-eye daisies at each other by the hour together. About a quarter of a mile down this lane, just at the commencement of the village, was the blacksmith's rustic forge and thatched cottag e , w h ere th e r i ng i ng ham mer made cheerful music, and as h a pp y a family dwelt as p m ed igh an t n e i n ee tn t ne in ias a tie da a y n 's d one sera Eliza Cook's "Jottings from my Journal." [ADVERTISEMENT.]—HOIIOWay'6 Ointment and Pills.-- Indisputable Facts.—The merits of these remedies have been and are acknowledged in both hemispheres, and few would presume to impugn the experience of the whole world. Testimonials from all parts vouch for their effi ciency as curatives. The ointment soon displays its vir tues in overcoming abscesses, swellings of the joints, en largement of the glands, cutaneous eruptions, sores, ulcers, and in allaying inflammation and pain in rheumatism and gout. It heals by cleansing all animal fluids with which it comes in contact, and promotes a sound and permanent cure. It removes all obstructions to the free circulation through the minutest vessels, and repairs mischief by con stantly securing pure blood.

The committee to whom was referred the Lon don, Chatham, and Dover Railway Bill (Metropo litan Extensions), yesterday proceeded to consider the proposed bill for converting the Thames Tunnel to railway purposes—Mr. Ridley in the chair. Mr, Hope Scott, Q.C., and Mr. RodsVell appeared for the promoters or the bill; the only opposition came from the London Docks Company, who were represented by Mr. Sergeant Wraugham and Mr. Murphy. Mr. IL Scott, QC., briefly opened the case for the promoters of the bill, who he stated had agreed with the Thames Tunnel Company for the purchase of the Thames Tunnel for £150,000, and the expense of the works, including the purchase of the tunnel, would amount to £BOO,OOO. It was proposed to make a railway, commencing at Deptford by a junction with the main line of the Brighton and South-Eastern Company, passing through the Thames Tunnel, and terminating in the parish of St. George-in-the-East by a junction with the Blackwall Railway where - it crosses Cannon-street road. A railway would then commence from this point to the Fenchurch-street Station of the London and Blackwall Railway. • It was then proposed to make a line from Deptford to the Commercial Dock station of the Greenwich line, and terminating in Deptford by a junction with the main lines of rail. way belonging to the Brighton and South-Eastern Company ; and a railway commencing in the parish of St. Mary, Rotherhithe, and terminating at a point immediately adjoining to, and on the eastern side of, the general offices of the Commercial Dock Company, with the appropriation, alteration, and discontinuance, either wholly or partially, of its present use by the public as a passenger thorough fare. The learned counsel then recapitulated the advantages which must necessarily be derived by the public in having a railway commuuic9tion directly between the railways on the north and south sides of the Thames, and at the same time convert a national work, which was now altogether unproductive, into a very desirable means for com pleting that railway system The scheme was a most valuable one, and was only opposed by the London Dock Company. Mr. D. Pollock, engineer, was examined by Mr. Redwell, and he said he had had it in contempla tion for some time to adapt the Thames Tunnel to railway purposes, about which there could be no difficulty whatever. It would be the means of re lieving greatly the street traffic. It was originally intended by Mr. Brunel to be used for street traffic, but that had never been done, and as the tunnel had not been used by the public to the extent antici pated by Mr. Brunel, the work had proved an en tire failure, as the shareholders had never received a farthing dividend, and there was a large debt due to the Government. Mr. Mason, clerk to the Thames Tunnel Com pany, said he had been so for 24 years, and was engaged in the construction of the Thames Tunnel under Mr. Brunel. There is three feet of limestone rock under the tunnel. It could be safely used for a railway as it is perfectly dry. • The tunnel is ap proached by a spiral staircase, and is only available now for foot passengers. In round numbers the tunnel cost £468,000. The masonry of the Thames Tunnel is three feet in the thinnest part, and is the strongest masonry in the world, and when some works were required to be done Sir I. Brunel offered the men one shilling for every inch they could get out, whole. It was so solid that it ap peared like rock work. Mr. Jennings, engineer to the Grand Surrey Canal Docks, was examined by Mr. Rod well, and said he considered the conversion of the Thames Tunnel would be attended with great advantage to the public. It would also be of great benefit to the Surrey docks, as it would give them a commu nication for their timber trade With all the railways in the north of London. This bill had the entire assent of the Grand Surrey Dock Company. Mr. (1, 11.11nisch secretary to the Grand Surrey ' Docks Company, said he had examined the plans of this company. The acreage of the Surrey docks was about 160 acres, and they were looking; for ward to a great increase in the timber trade. If this line waslormed, it Would relieve London-bridge of the timber traffic which now passes veer it. Mr. Gaussen, a provisional director of the Thames Tunnel Company, said he had directed his attention to the subject of railway communication by means of the Thames Tunnel. There had been an objec tion raised to o the formation of the railway under the London docks, but he had no doubt that it could be executed without damage to' their property. There would be no danger whatever, nor would it he antagonistic to the interests of the London Dock Company. It would tend greatly to relieve the streets of traffic, both of passengers and goods. If this line were made he believed it would be a paying line, and a good investment. After some further evidence of a similar nature had been taken, the committee adjourned. SOCIEIY F 01? PROJIOnwo THE AMENDMENT OF THE LA IV. The usual fortnightly meeting of the members of this society was last night held at their rooms, Waterloo-place; Lord Broughant in the chair. LAW OF LIBEL IN FRANCE. his LORDSHIP, on taking the chair, said he was anxious, before the meeting proceeded ,to discuss the question of the Attorney-General's bankruptcy bill, to call the attention of the society to‘the state of the law of libel, or what was new discovered to be the law of libel, in France. It appeared that his excellent friend, Mr. Prevost Paradol, was about to he prosecuted for a pamphlet which he lately pub lished, but in which it was impossible fur any man why read it to find anything worthy of prosecu tion ; but after the recent decision of the Court of Cassation, in the case of the action brought by the sepresentatives of the late Bishop Rousseau against the Bishop of Orleans, one could scarcely pronounce anything. impossible. His lordship having ex plained the nature of the suit, and the course of the proceedings through which it passed, went on to say that the old Duke Pacakie, when he heard that the court grounded its decision upon a law of his proposal made in 1819, said that as he was morally dead, being upwards of 90 years of age, he had, on their own interpretation of the law, ground of action for libel, as well on his own part as on that of his old colleague, the late M. D. Score, as the de cree was tantamount to a post-mortem defamation ; and that, had such a law existed in the time of Tiberius, the four Evangelists might have been pro secuted for defaming Judas Iscariot. The law of England, however, had no such rule, although it did protect persons existent against the pain of having their deceased relatives libelled, on the prin ciple that such abuse might lead to a breach of the peace. LAW OF BANKRUPTCY. Mr. EDGAR stated that the committee had re ceived a valuable paper on the " Law of Bank ruptcy" from the Queen's Ancient Sergeant, but as it came late, and did not exactly come within the order of reference, they were unable to place it before the society. It was a comprehensive view of the law of bankruptcy in the principal commer cial countries of the world. Lord. BROUGHAM, looking at the report of the committee, which has been already published, said it considered the official assignees only in one point of view—viz., as the custodians of the estate. Mr. LAWRENCE said the society had postponed the consideration of that point until they had the favour of his lordship's attendance. He believed that the 30 years' experience which they had of the working of the official assignees ought to con vince them of the necessity of retaining them, for the duties which they performed were such as should belong to no one but a recognised. public officer: The Attorney-General's bill, however, pro posed to get rid of them indirectly, by divesting them of all control at the moment the trade as signee was appointed, who would be paid by the ereditors, arid have the right to appoint a manager and his rate of remuneration. Lord BROUGHAM-It will be difficult in the House of Lords to get Lord 0 verstone to consent to that. The proposal to do away with the inter ference of the official assignee at the moment that his services are most required, I consider to be monstrous, and calculated to bring back all the abuses of the old system. Mr. LAWRENCE proceeded to say that in the pre sent temper of the House of Commons it was the House of Lords the people looked for calm and de liberate legislation, and having pointed ant several cases, in which no one but a recognised public officer could protect the estate from being dissi pated by jobbery or made away with by fraud, con cluded by moving a resolution to the effect that it is not desirable to interfere with the official as signees in regard to their present duties. Mr. GILMOUR seconded. the motion, and drew attention to the fact that the system of trade as signees did not work well in Scotland, notwith standing that it was furnished with safeguards RECENT WILLS' AND BEQUESTS.
