Monday evening the large room at Burlington House, in which the Geographical Society hold their meetings, was crowded to hear a communication from Captain Maury, of the Unqed Sta:es, on the physical geography of the Antarctic Regions. Tho president (Lord Ashburton) occu pied the chair; and before the business appropriated for the evening commenced, he mentioned that another letter had been received from Captain Spoke, who is endeavouring to reach the sources of the Nile, and he stated that the Geographical Society were so much im pressed with the importance of sending an armed expedi tion to assist and protect Captain Speke from the hostile tribes in the north of Africa, that the council had,contrary to their usual custom, contributed £lOO for that purpose, and the Foreign-office had contributed a similar amount. It was hoped, therefore, that these sums, added to the pri vate subscriptions, would enable Mr. Consul Petherick to start on his proposed route. Mr. GALTON, of the Foreign-office, read extracts from Capt. Speke's letter, dated the 23d October from Zanguebar, in wb'ch he stated that he started on the 25th September with his Hotten tot guard, and that they had proved ex tremely useful, though he feared they would not be proof against the influence of the climate, as some of them had already been attacked with fever. Capt. Speko wrote in terms of confidence that he should accomplish the objects of his expedition, and expressed a hope that Mr. Petherick would meet him, Captain MAURY was heartily greeted when he came for ward to address the meeting, which he did in a forcible manner, and only occasionally referred to his notes. He commenced by noticing the nautical congress at Brussels in 1553, at which a plan of observations was determined on by the representatives o 1 England, the United States, Holland, France, and Russia ; and, in accord ance with that plan, instructions were given to the commanders of the ships of those nations to make observa tions in all latitudes. The result had been the collection of upwards of a million observations on the currents of the ocean, the direction of the winds, the temperature, the height of the barometer, and other meteorological phe• nomena, the whole of which Captain Maury undertook to discuss, and some of the results of which he described. He stated that, in pursuing the investigation of the physical geography of the sea, the inquirer is led into the exami tion of phenomena connected with various sciences, which he must pursue to arrive at satisfactory conclu sions. The points to which he especially directed the attention of the meeting were the directions and variations of the trade winds north and south of the equator, and the difference in the temperature and in the height of the barometer. Taking bands of latitude five miles wide from the equator, he fund that on the south the direction of the wind in the bands nearest the equator was more southerly than in the bands more remote, until, on arriving at south latitude between 35 deg. and 40 deg., the wind during exactly half the year was southerly, and for the other half northerly. The much larger propor tion of water in the southern hemisphere is sufficient to account for its warmer temperature, and Captain Miaow supposes the effect to be produced by the greater fall of rain observed in the south. On the coast of Patagonia the annual fall of rain, if estimated from the observed fal 1 during 41 days must be nearly 12ft., instea d of 2ft., as in the neighbourhood of London; and this great con densation of tie vapour he assumes causes it to part with its latent heat and warm the atmosphere. The lowest state of the barometer in the southern hemi sphere he did not attempt to explain, but contented him self with mentioning the fact that the average of a vast number of observations shows that the mean height of the barometer is half an inch less than north of the equator. Beyond 50 degrees south the wind blows generally towards tie pole, and this regular current of air Captain Maury attibutes to the comparative heat of the antarctic regions. .another curious fact is that the wind is much stronger in the south of the equator than on the north. The frequent appearance of large icebergs in the antarctic seas indicates that there must be land there, for icebergs are never formed at sea ; and he called on the Royal Geographical Society to promote explorations to the South Pole, which might open important resources. Ho I said that the region to be explored, of which we now know no more than of the moon, is only ten days' steam from Australia; and if this country did not shortly undertake to investigate the hidden treasures of the antarctic circle, the United States would "go a-head." Admiral FITZROY eulogised Captain Maury's exertions in promoting the knowledge of the physical geography of the sea, and mentioned some of the important practical results which had been obtained from his labours in facilitating the navigation of the ocean. The Government of the United States, he said, had acted with the utmost liberality in a upplylug g ratuitously the 700 quarto voluniea of sailing directions, compiled by Captain Maury, and 12,000 charts, which were of the greatest use to all navigators. Captain WASHINGTON was of opinion that little benefit would be derived from antarctic exploration, and he re minded Captain Maury that Cooke, Ross, and other cele brated navigators had already made the attempt. lie said that the United States had done less than any other mari time nation in making explorations, and as their whalers were very numerous in the south seas, he advised Captain Maury to recommend his own Government to make the attempt, for he was sure the Government of this country would not. He wished to know what was likely to be found in the frozen antarctic regions that would be worth the search P A NEVER FAILING REMEDY.- Dr. SCOTT'S BILIOUS and LIVER PILLS, pre pared without any mercurial ingredient, from the recipe of Dr. Scott, of Bromley, Kent, are a sure remedy for affections of the liver, indigestion, bile, sick headache, giddiness, loss of appe tite, lowness of spirits, &c.

Sir LEOPOLD M'CLINTOCK confirmed Captain Maury's opiaion, that icebergs are formed on land and launched on the water. Sir E. BELCHER was inclined to attribute the warmer temperature of the southern hemisphere to the Gulf Stream, which flows along the whole coast of South America, and even around Cape Horn. Captain JANSEN, of Holland, mentioned that by taking advantage of Capt. Maury's sailing directions the passage from Holland to Java and to Australia had been made in 10 and 15 days' shorter time than by the previous course.: Capt. MAURY replied to the remarks of Capt. Washing ton, observing that he was " stealing his thunder," for he (Captain Maury) claimed Captain Cooke as an American/ (Loud laughter.) After some observations from the President, thanks were voted to Captain Maury, and the meeting adjourned. CONTRACT FOR COALS FOR MALTA.

STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Nov. 27.—There has been a very steady market for yarns, and prices are gradually gaining in strength in consequence of the large business done on Thursday and Friday last for China ; shippers to China have been the chief buyers, but a few considerable purchases have been made for Calcutta. Prices are fully id. per lb. higher than last Tuesday, and the market closes very firm at the advance. There is not much business re ported for the home trade, and the Germans, who had begun to operate at the point of extreme depression, are now holding back. In cloths, as in yarn, a considerable business was done on Thusrday and Friday in fabrics suited to the China trade, at a slight advance on last Tuesday's rates. The letters from Shanghai and other commercial ports, however, do not report the market there as in a very satisfactory state, and it is supposed that the purchases here were of a speculative character. Some purchases were also made for India. Accord ing to letters from Calcutta prices were a little higher at last dates, and a rather more cheerful feeling prevailed. To-day we have not had much business for either China or India, but prices re tain the slight advance gained on China goods. Printing cloths are not so easy to sell at last Tues day's rates. Longcloths and T-cloths only . in moderate demand, at last Tuesday's prices. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report :—" On Wed nesday last, owing to the prospect of an easier money-market, there was rather a better demand for goods generally, and the downward tendency of prices was arrested. On Thursday an active de mand set in for 40-inch shirtings and other goods for China, and a large business was done in them at an advance of I.ld. to 3d. per piece on Tuesday's prices. There is less doing to-day, but this is owing more to the long engagements of manu facturers than to any falling off in the demand. Longloths and T-cloths have also been in more request, and in some instances a slight advance has been realized." LEEDS, 27th.—There has been but a small atten dance of buyers in the cloth-halls this morning, and the purchases made were confined to small parcels, as they have been for the last few market days. The trade at the warehouses, too, is rather flat, but not more so than is usual at this intermediate sea son of the year. The country clothiers report that they are not brisk, but that they are moderately well employed. Prices continue steady, and those of wool keep creeping up, but they cannot be quoted higher than last week. ROCHDALE, 26th.—The flannel market hes not been very well attended to-day, the wetness of the weather having kept several parties away. The trade, however, was a shade better than last week. The chief demand is for home consumption, little being doing at present by the export houses. Lan cashire and Welsh imitations and Saxonies are quiet, but dyed goods are very active for the season, and there continues to be a good sale for Yorkshire goods. Prices in general are firm. There has not been much demand for wool to-day, but prices are steady. Upon the whole the operatives in the flannel trade are well employed. IRE NA Vl'. Her Majesty's screw steam sloop Serpent was yesterday undocked at Woolwich, :and the new sloop Rosario, launched at Deptford in Nov. last, was docked in its place, to be prepared for service. The screw steam troopship Himalaya, Capt. S. Seccombe, had her steam got up yesterday (Tues day) morning, in Plymouth Sound, for the pur pose of going into Hamoaze to undergo repair, but owing to the boisterous state of the weather she did not make the attempt. Mr. Thunder, engineer of the Hero, 91, was by sentence of court-martial, on Monday, at Plymouth, dismissed from that ship. The paddlewheel steam store-ship Rhadaman thus, 4, Master Commander F. R. Sturdee, took on board new boats, and proceeded yesterday (Tuesday) from Plymouth for Deptford. The screw steam corvette Charybdis, 21, Capt. Keane, at Devonport, is to be fitted and stored as soon as possible, when she will sail for her destina tion, the East Indies. Having been cleaned and her valves overhauled, she was removed yesterday (Tuesday) from No. 3 dock in Keyham steam-yard, and placed in the lock, preparatory to going into Hamoaze to-day (Wednesday). The screw steam gunboat Porpoise, tender to the Royal Albert, 121, was put into No. 4 dock in the Devonport dockyard on Monday morning to have defects made good. The screw steam frigate Ariadne, 26, Capt. Van sittart, was appointed to be hauled into Keyham basin yesterday (Tuesday), for docking to-day (Wednesday). The paddlewheel steam sloop Gorgon, 6, Com mander Bedford C. T. Pim, from Portsmouth, ar rived at Plymouth yesterday (Tuesday), and went into Hamoaze. She will coal and provision, and take the mooring brig Swift ender her care, and then proceed to the Cape of Good Hope. The North Star, 22 gags, a splendid screw cor vette, 400 horse power, with covered deck, is being built in the Sheerness dockyard. Her armament will consist of 20 guns, 8 feet 10 inches long, weigh ing 90 cwt. each, and two pivot guns, 10 feet long, weighing 90 cwt. each. Her tonnage will be 1,856 and 82.94. As soon as she is launched a similar vessel, to be named the Weymouth, is to be imme diately commenced. The Orestes, 21 guns, 400-horse power, screw steam corvette, which was launched in August last, has undergone a trial of her engines, which worked admirably. Her engines are of a new description, called " plunger" engines, and were manufactured by Messrs. Napier and Son, of Glasgow. She is now in No. 3 dock, having her salt water distil ling apparatus fitted. The Orestes is considered one of the handsomest vessels afloat, and is much ad mired as a piece of naval architecture. The Collingwood, 80, sailing ship, is in No. 2 dock, Sheerness, being converted into a screw steam vessel, 400-horse power, and is near completion. The Leander occupies No. 1 dock, and is being con verted from a sailing ship into a screw stdm frigate, 400-horse power, having been lengthened some 40 feet amidships. In the basin are the Anson, 91, screw steamship, 800-horse power ; Atlas, 91, screw steamship, 800-horse power; New castle, 51, screw steam frigate, 600-horse power ; all of which are having their boilers and engines fitted, and are or dered to be brought forward immediately for the first class steam reserve. There are also in the basin the Wanderer, 4, screw steam despatch boat, 200- horse power, and the Virago, 6 paddlewheel sloop, 300-horse power, both of which are undergoing re pairs and being fitted for the first-class steam ordi nary. Orders have been received at Sheerness to prepare the Malacca, 17 screw steam sloop, 200-horse power, for the first class steam reserve, and to hold her in readiness for the pennant. The Cumberland, 70, guardship of the steam or dinary, Capt. C. F. Schomberg, has been paid wages under the superintendence of Capt. C. Wise, super intendent of her Majesty's dockyard, and her crew granted eight days' leave. The Miranda, 15, screw steam sloop, Commander H. C. Glyn, left Sheerness harbour on Monday, and proceeded on trial of her engines, after undergoing the necessary repairs, which were found to work satisfactorily. Notwithstanding the unfavourable ness of the weather (a strong wind and tide being against her), she attained a mean speed of 8 knots an hour. She was inspected yesterday by Vice-Ad miral W. J. Hope Johnstone, commander-in-chief, and staff, and sailed for Plymouth. The Barracouta, 6, paddle, Commander W. Wood, whose arrival at Spithead from the West Indies with invalids was reported in The Sun yesterday, hauled down the yellow quarantine flag from her fore yesterday morning, and discharged her invalids to hospital. She will go into Portsmouth harbour this morning. The Mersey, 40, screw, Capt. H. Caldwell, C. 8., lying at Spithead, had the " blue peter" flying all yesterday, and was expected to have proceeded to her destination—the West Indies—but was detained until past sunset picking up stragglers. She was to sail last evening, or at latest, at daylight this morning. The Bulldog, 6, paddle, Capt. Sir F. L. I\l'Clin tock, alongside Portsmouth dockyard, has com menced caulking and making good defects to paddle boxes and bulwarks. The Algiers, 91, screw, Capt. G. D. O'Callaghan, will go out of Portsmouth harbour to-day, and take up a berth at Spithead. The communication between Nos. 7 and 10 docks in Portsmouth yard, now being carried out by the contractors, Messrs. G. Smith and Co., of Pimlico, is ordered to be completed by the Ist of March next, as the docks will then be required by the authorities for the purpose of receiving the Warrior, iron cased frigate, now building by the Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company. On the completion of the work, these two docks, by the removal of the central caisson, can be thrown into one, with a total length of 615 feet, the caissons being placed in the sunk grooves at each end. By using the western rebate and the steam basin out side groove for the caissons the total length may be increased to 645 feet. The breadth and the depth will be necessarily very unequal, the new portion, or No. 10 dock, as it is now termed, being of greater depth than No. 7 by five feet, and also of greater width in that portion which will be the nearest point in contact with a ship's bilges. The breadth between the entrance gate piers and the coping will be 83 feet at one end and 80 feet at the other. The homogeneous metal introduced a short time ago in Woolwich factory for forging steam boilers is ordered by the Board of Admiralty to be applied experimentally in the manufacture of chains, links, and similar purposes, and to be reported on accord ingly, after being carefully tested. The entry of additional smiths, metal workers, and foundrymen at Chatham Dockyard, to be employed on the iron-plated war steamer intended to be built at that establishment, is to be suspended for the present, in consequence of the whole of the prepa rations not having been yet completed for commenc ing the huge ship. Additional workshops and forges will have to be erected in close proximity to the second dock, in which she is to be built, but as yet no commencement of these erections has been made. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Henry T. Bogers, to the Jason ; Lieu t. G. T. Medd, to the Flying Fish ; Lieut. F. S. V . Meulin, to the Marlborough, additional, for disposal; R. P. NV. Powney, midshipman, to the Jason ; F. J. Easther, mid shipman to the llarier ; J. Sproule, surgeon , to the Ar . el ; and Joshua Connolly, acting 3d class assistant •engmeer, to the Cumberland. The Calcutta quotations of Rupee paper by the present mail show an advance of i par cent., which has been followed by for the Five per Cents., and a r i se o f I per cent. on this side, the clos ing quotations to-day being 951 to and 1011 to. for the dive and-A-liall per Cents. rtICE 4D . STAmpED, sr. THE ARMY. The hired transport Sultana, having on board 700 tons of stores for Hong Kong, and being d e _ tained at Woolwich about 14 days, in consequence of the counter-order relative to the departure of a troop of the Military Train under orders for China, has filled in with provisions and hospital stores from Deptford, and has sailed from Woolwich for her I destination. The men having volunteered for the service from various troops belonging to the Ist Battalion are ordered to be again dispersed through the battalion for home duty. The attention of the French Government having been called to the existence and merits of the Me chanics' Institute and Library in Woolwich Arse nal by the recent publication in Paris of M. Esquino's historical book, containing some descrip tive and circumstantial remarks on that institution, dotted down during his inspection of the depart ments of the arsenal last year, Col. Tulloh, superin tendent of the carriage department, has received a parcel, through the medium of the Secretary of State for War in Pall-mall, by order of hialkir- 4 -.04. , the Emperor Napoleon, enclosing a couple of volumes for presentation to the above-nanr blishment, entitled " Journal d'Olivier . d'Ormeson," published by M.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—Nn. ! COURT FOR DIVORCE AND MAI NIAL CAUSES. (Before the Judge Ordinary, Mr. Justice man, and Mr. Justice Williams.) THE SHEDDEN CASE—JUDGMENT. Mr. Collier, Q.C., having concluded hi the Court, after a few minutes' adjournm , ceeded at once to pronounce sentence u questions which had been submitted to it. The Judge Ordinary said they had now at the last stage of this very singular inT inquiry the length and complexity of wh caused the Court to feel in a very consider gree the responsibility that rested upo There were two or three circumstances, b which somewhat diminished that feeling. first place the evidence had been given r slowly, and so much immaterial matter mixed up with what was material that had abundant time to consider the weig should be assigned to the latter. Another stance that might have embarrassed them N fact that the female petitioner had been lel considerable time to conduct the cause with( assistance of counsel ; but the intimate kno , which she had displayed with every fact, m or immaterial, connected with the history family, and the singular tact and dexterity she had shown in the management of her ca tirely relieved the Court from any appreb on that score. Besides, a portion of the el had been given, and the whole had bees ably commented upon by an experienced sel. Lastly, the Court felt that the me not a question depending upon nicely be evidence, but it was one upon which tht all been enabled to come to a most clef unhesitating judgment. The question was t this :—Had a marriage in fact been solar( whether with or without religious rites, bt the father and the mother of the elder pet before he was born ? During fourteen da court had had to discharge the functions o men ; but they could not content themselv€ giving, like jurymen, a simple verdict ef no—they felt bound to state the reaso which they drew the conclusions to which come. The facts on which the case turned - numerous. The evidence given by the pe of the alleged marriage was confined to N , called habit and repute ; but they said tin distance of time it would not be reasonat pect them to supply better testimony of Now the first question that suggested itse ing with the case was, why should the have been a secret one? The only reason now attempted to suggest was that Mr. the father of the bride, objected to the cause the difference between her age and Mr. Shedden was too great ; and then it was saw that immediately after this secret marriage the parties cohabited together as man and wife, down to the death of the petitioner's father ; that in the meantime everybody knew of it ; and that Mrs. Shedden visited and was visited by the ladies of New York. But what a strange reason to give for keeping a marriage secret ! If Mr. Wilson ob jected to his daughter being married to Mr. Shed den because he was too old, would he be reconciled to the idea of her cohabiting with him without being married so far as he knew at all ! But, again, was this the reason the petitioner had always given ? In 1833 he was in treaty with Mr. Patrick for the purchase of the Roughwood estate, and in a letter of the 14th June he wrote, " Though I am unable to establish my right just now, yet what is known on the subject would not be in your favour. I conceive it my duty to inform you that my sister told me that my mother was a respectable young person, living with her parents on a small farm on my father's estate, and that he did not publicly acknowledge her on account lof her humble birth, but that he nevertheless treated her as his wife." If that was so, what became of the reason now alleged for the secresy of the match' This, by the way, was the letter of a man who stated that till 1848 or 1849 he had I never had the slightest intimation that any mar riage had taken place until the ceremony which was performed on his father's deathbed. But this was not all. He went on to say :—" Moreover my sister told me in 1829, when she mentioned this cir cumstance to me, that a woman was still living who was present at the private marriage." After these two opposite reasons assigned for the secret mar riage, what confidence could be felt in the evidence of habit and repute ? Against that evidence there was the testimony of Mr. Neilson, who declared that Mr. Shedden always passed for a single man, and who was of much greater age than those wit nesses who had been examined on the other side. There was likewise the evidence of John Barr, which, if Barr had not perjured himself, was ex ceedingly strong. If the case had stopped here he (the learned judge) might, perhaps, have felt some embarrassment, though he believed he should even then have held that the petitioners had not adduced sufficient affirmative evidence to warrant his form ing a judicial opinion that a marriage had ta ken place previous to 1798. With regard to thedeath bed marriage on the 7th of Nov. in t hat year, w h a t t te P It reason could be assigned for taking could not, on the hypothesis:of the petthitaiosnerp_s, have been taken in order to make repar i ation for any wrong done to Anne Wilson ; ne ither could t have been prompted by a religious scruple as to the law fulness of matrimonial cohabitation without the sanction of the Church, because Mr. Shedden well knew that his cohabitation with the mother of the petitioner would never again be resumed. What other cause was there ! It was suggested that the deceased might have thought that a second mar riage might have been easier of proof than the fir s t. But that could hardly be. All New York, it was said, knew of the first marriage, and Mrs. Shedden visited and was visited by the families of Dr. Ros well, Mrs. Rankin, Mr. Hamilton, Judge Pendle ton, and the other persons of repute of whose acquaintance the petitioners boasted. Tile decease d might moreover have made a de claration which would have been conclusive. The only other motive for the marriage was the idea that it would legitimate the children whom the parties had had out of wedlock; and that, so long as it suited his case, was the reason assigned by the petitioner himself. He had been continu ally pressing upon his uncle the fact that his father had always intended him tohave the Rough wood property, and that he (Mr. Patrick) had basely availed himself of a technical objection to defeat the intention of the deceased. It had been suggested, indeed, that Mr. Shedden had by some means been led to suspect that there would be a conspiracy to deny his former marriage ; and that to make sure he had had the marriage re-solemnised with ecclesiastical forms. If there really had been such a design, who could have been partie; tatrc ° in the ik conspiracy ? Clearly no one but Mr. I in New York, and M.

Nevertheless, the House of Lords, and in his !fore this court, he had stated even the duplicate of the (leen or was that all.

As to the case having been fairly argued there, no one could entertain any doubt who had read the wonderful, acute, and learned case pre pared by Lord Brougham—the only one he had ever drawn up for the House of Lords. Yet on the mere surmise, he must be charged with having assisted Mr. Patrick to plunder the estate. The charge of fraud against Mr. Patrick having fallen to the ground the whole case of the petitioner must fall with it; and he (the learned judge) must there fore pronounce that he, William Patrick Ralston Shedden, was not a legitimate child of his father, and was consequently not a natural-born British subject. One word as to the position in which the petitioners were left by this decision. For the male petitioner he could have no sympathy. He might have brooded over his fancied wrongs until he had lost his faculty of judgment ; but the course he pursued had been such as must totally exclude him from sympathy. For the female petitioner, he (Sir C. Cresswell) did feel most deeply. He had no doubt that she had been brought up belief of the truth of her father's story ; and from the intimate knowledge which she had shown of every particle of evidence connected with the cases, it was clear that she had dwelt upon it for year a in a full and years with the unhesitating confidence o f dutiful and affectionate child, until it had a t iv l h a a a t t become interwoven with her very nature It must be one of two things.

On the motion of Mr. Bovill, Q.C., the petitioners were condemned in the costs, and certain papers which they had obtained from Mr. Patrick in the Court of Session, Wm ordered to he restored to him.
