(Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Remilly.) IN RE BRISTOL GRAMMAR SCHOOL. --JUDGMENT. The contention in this case was whether the head-master of this school was entitled to receive boarders into his house as scholars, in addition to his salary and free house. His Honour said—On perusal of the medical evidence pro duced, and the answers returned by several masters, which I have carefully considered, I have come to the conclusion that I cannot allow the introduction of boarders into this school. Ido not mean to lay down any general rule of exclu.ion of boarders into charity schools, every such case would depend on its own circumstances, but, on con sidering th evidence produced, his Honour was inclined to think that he better way would be to follow the examples of Harrow and Rugby schools, and exclude the higher classes from the lower, except under peculiar circumstances. It was generally found that the higher and lower classes did not amalgamate in tender years, and the introduction of the higher classes into free schools would destroy the character of the charities. Ilia Honour considered the salary here sufficient to secure the service of an efficient master, if not it might be rai se d b y t h e trustees at any future period. Hi s R ouour said he could not alter the scheme of not raising the Capitation fees. His Honour approved of the scheme generally, and order e d cos t s o f a ll puttee to be paid ou t of the charity estate. 87 89 97 98 d, 1 Lidj 62 ,77 82 72 77 70 75 par I p 1 j(11 14 is 20 - - 1140twn Bengal.gu.sp.c.

M RLB OROUGH - STREET. UNPROVOKED ASSAULT BY A MANUFACTURER.—ME. James Best; described as a lace manufacturer, of Notting ham, but at present staying at the White Bear, Piccadilly, was charged before Mr. Beadon with the following unpro voked assault on Sergeant John Rogers, 6 C, a very respec table and useful officer, and who on account of his know ledge of French, is often specially employed. Sergeant Rogers said that about half-past ten the previ ous night he went to the Blaek Horse, Oxenien-street, Coventry-street, to serve a notice on a man to appear at the sessions. He was in conversation with Mr. Davis, the landlord, who had formerly been his landlord, and a friend, having his police coat on at the time, when the, defendant noticing a ring he had on said, " No wonder such as. you can wear rings. • I suppose you've a prostitute that keeps you at home." He told him he wished he would ad dress his conversation to some ono else, when the defendant said, "Don't be an apo—put yourself in position, and I'll show you what I'll do :with you." He then got a con stable to assist him, and took him to the station-house. The defendant had been drinking, but knew perfectly well what ho was about at the time. ;d (d 5 7 Defendant 'said he was not aware what he had done. Sergeant Rogers said he had a dozen respectable wit nesses. Mr. Beadon said the defendant had nobusiness to conduct hhsself like a ruffian, and fined him £3 or a Month's impri sonment.

Mr. BLACK asked the Secretary of the Treasury if the mania the Preventive Service in Scotland have any printed or written regulations or instructions delivered to them for their guidance; and if so, whether one of these rules is, that the offence of marrying shall be visited with dismissal from the service; and whether the prohibition against marriage applied equally to the officers and the men? Mr. LAING said that the penalty was inflicted because it had been found that unmarried Inen discharged their duties more efficiently, having four nights in the week to be employed on night duty, which was disagreeable to married men. The nten were informed verbally of this regulation on entering the service of, the Inland Re venue. With regard to the officers, unmarried men were inyariubly selected, and when they married they were re moved to some other branch of the service when properly qualified successors , could be secured.

When he introduced a bill to the same effect last year it went through a second reading, but in committee his prin• ciple was abandoned, and another of an. entirely antago nistic character was introduced. He could not consent to the bill in that form, and ultimately it was rejected. With regard to the bill of Lord Cranworth, which had come down from the Upper House, he must object to it, That bill was limited to rendering it compulsory on trustees to make such rules for the education of Dissenters as they might deem advisable. In fact, it was merely a homes pathic measure, and would not meet the evilscomplained of by Dissenters. The next bill before the house was that of the hon. and learned member for Belfast (Sir H. Cairns), to which he objected also, as it was founded on the prin ciple that the usage for a certain number' of years conferred a right in reference to these schools. That might be a sound legal doctrine as applied to private individuals, but he contended it should not be applied to public charities. He (Mr. Diflwyn) proposed that the schools founded up to the first year of Elizabeth, and prior to the passing of the Toleration Act, should be regarded in the same light as foundations for general purposes, but he did not propose to interfere with any endowment subsequent to the act in. question. He contended that his bill would remedy a grievance, but would effect no dismition or any injury on the interests of these schools. He also argued thatomme • rically considered, and id consequence of the internal dis sensions that prevailed in the Church of England, that Church was not qualified to discharge efficiently the trusts of these endowed schools. The hon. member said that the bill was framed so as to meet the objections raised against the fOrmer measure which he had introduced. Mr. LOWE advised the rejection of the bill, which he said originated in consequence of the decisions of the Courts of Equity, that the• doctrines taught in those schools should be those of the Church of Eng land. By this bill they were called on to take away from the Church ef England rights which it held by Act of Parliament, and on instruments of great antiquity which had been adjudicated upon for 300 years. He eulogised the bill of Lord Cranworth, which Rrovided, for the education of children of Dissenters without interference with their reli gious tenets, and its adoption by the right reverend bench, was a proof of the fair principle by which. Churchmen wore aotuated in reference to this matter. He was as desiroils to effect for Dissenters all that they were entitled to, a's the hon. member who brought forward this bill, but l• felt perfectly satisfied that the mea sure would not accrimplish the object contemplated: (Hear.) Mr. SELWV.:4 moved that the bill be read a second time this day six vuonths. lie contended that there was every desire on tt,e part of Churchmen, when placed in a position to do so ~to extend to Dissenters all the advantages of edu catio:„. In support of that position he adverted to the riactice that prevailed in the university which he repre sented, where facilities were afforded to persons of all religious denominations to avail themselves of the bone .f The. hon. and learned member then adverted to the legal bearing or the question to prove that the bill would lead to confusion in the law courts, and would be found inoperative in practice. Mr. CAULFIELD seconded the amendment. (LEFT SITTING.) FROM THE GAZETTE OF LAST NIGHT DOWNING-STREET, MAltelt 19.

Bd. Of this quantity 20,142,3501 b. was exported, while the imports were 2141 b. of brown paper, made of old rope or cordage only, paying a duty of £2 4s. 7d.; 211,178 square yaris of printed, painted, or stained paper-hangings or flock paper, which contributed £2,564 to the revenue ; and 1,586,2491 b. of waste paper and paper not otherwise enumerated or charg ed with duty, on which £9,981 was pa id as d uty. Of • t hi s latter quality of paper 557,4441 b. was re •exported ; 240,0521 b. of paper gilt, stained, coloured, or embossed, and all fancy kinds not being paper-hangings, which paid £2,430 to the Custom-house; giving a total of £14,977 received as duty on foreign paper. of all kinds. As compared with the returns of 1834 the total weight of paper, pasteboard, &c., charged with duty in 1859 is nearly !trebled, the weight on which duty was paid in 1834 being only 76,138,9451 b., although the amount of duty in consequence of modificatiOns in the Excise, by no means exhibits a proportionate increase.. There is, however, no cause of complaint on this head, as the increase to the revenue by paper duty as compared with 1834 is £595,668 7s. Bd. The exports of paper, pasteboard, &c., show a wonderful increase during the period between 1834 and 1859, being in the latter more than four-fifths more than were in the former year, THAMES. CRIMPS AND TOI/TERS ON BOARD Snir.---John Fitz gerald, aged 41, a rough looking fellow, from the neigh bourhood of Old Montague-street, Whitecbapel, was brought before Mr. Yardley charged with forcing himself on board the ship Southern Belle, in the St. Katherine Dock, and refusing to leave the vessel when.ortlered. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Coster, the chief officer of the Southern Belle; and Mr. S. Cooper, a watch man in the employ of the St. Katherine Dock Company, that immediately on the arrival of the ship in the dock she was boarded by a great number of Sews, slopsellers, runners, touters, crimps, and boarding house keeperS, all very anxious to do business with the crew. They inter fered with the business of the ship, and were directed to leave and not solicit orders or custom of the sailors until the ship was moored. Several of the motley rabble refused to leave, and were quickly bundled on shore. The prisoner, who was in the forecastle of the ship soliciting orders and thrusting a slopseller's and a boarding-house keeper's cards into the hands of the crew, was repeatedly ordered to leave and refused to do so. Cooper said the prisoner must go, and that he might come on board again when the ship was moored. The prisoktir said he wanted to buy fat off the ship's cook and would not leave. Mr. Coster directed Cooper to remove the prisoner, who said, " I won't go on shore for a b---- like you," and used other threats and bad language. He also said, "if be had the watchman he would knock his b---y head off,' and then struck at the watchman, who parried the blow and took the fellow into custody. Mr. Mumford, Superintendent of the Dock Company's Police, said that a regulation had been made prohibiting any persons boarding ships until they were properly moored without permission of the officer in charge. Mr. Yardley said the regulation was 'a very proper one indeed, and be hoped it would be enforced. Very great' mischief and disorder had been occasioned by hosts of crimps, touters, and slopsellers boarding ships on their ar rival and before they moored, and in many instances drag ging sailors out of them. It was an offence punishable with a fine not exceeding £2O, or imprisonment for three months, and he was determined to carry out the law, w n d prevent a rmurreno.--of thy-dips...v.4Na "sucues irlitea had taken place. He fined the prisoner 205., and in. default eight days' imprisonment. 21118 LAY'S MA-RA:ITS. CORN EXCHANGE. The sujsply of English wheat in to-day's market was very moderate, and the condition of the samples was by no means first-rate. For most kinds there was a fair demand, at Monday's advance in the quotations. Foreign wheat—the supply of which was seasonably good—moved off slowly; nevertheless, prices were well supported. Floating cargoes of grain were quite as dear as last week. The barley trade was somewhat active at extreme cur rencies. We have again to report an inactive demand for malt, at late quotations. The transactions in oats were only to a moderate extent. Prices, however, were supported. Both beans and peas were very firm, and all kinds of flour were held'for rather more money.

Hurst and Blackett. There is much to attract notice in these volumes. Sea voyages are often made the subject of the novelist's productions, but we do not meet every day with so touch foie° and pathos as are apptient at every tutu of .11.1:s really admirable ro3orcl. 'toe events ate nothing out of the cto willoa , xx ith th e exception of the story of Mrs. Alilier, but the man ner of the writer is s., impressive that the reader :s irresistibly led along to the end. The character of Mrs. Miller, who is the most striking personage met with, is very effectively ,>.i.ven, and one feels a strange sympathy for that interesting being from the first moment of introduc tion to her, when she is resplendent in beauty, and full of majestic dignity, till the last sad silent moment, when all are assembled to wit ness an awful but sublime spectacle—the giving up of the lifeless remains to the great waters. A funeral at sea is always un affecting sight when the least cared for or most insignificant is consigned to oblivion ; b ut w h en the favourite of all onard or the admired of all eyes is taken away, then, in deed, is it such a moment as none who witness the ceremony can ever forget. The account here given is very affecting ; all divers interests seemed merged in that of sorrow for her who was taken away by a sudden death from such a wretched life. Only her two husbands were prevented from witnessing the funeral ; but each in his heart knew her inno cent, though rage and disappointment had practi cally bereft them of reason. The discovery of the existence of her first husband was publicly made, and painful as such a disclosure was, it was doubled by the brutal conduct of the man who had the want of common feeling to rush forward and insult her. It was not to be wondered at that such an occurrence caused a severe shock to an excitable being like Mrs. Miller, and it was, therefore, ss ith sorrow, bat no surprise, that her fellow-passengers obeyed the summons to follow her to her ocean sepul ture, who had been their pride and ornament. " A moment and she was gone, gone until the great sea should give up its dead." In the appendix the reader may well regret that most of those who figure conspicuously in these pages met with sad ends during the fatal events that took place during the Indian mutiny, but so far as the story goes, all seems to end prosperously, and to promise auspi ciously. Rose isa delightful character, very different from Mrs. Miller,but she is the more loveable of the two. Gentle and gracious, she ever seeks to form the happiness of those around her, and she certainly succeeds ' • while, to judge from h er manner , h er ' s seems to be the blessed gift of those who please themselves while only thinking of their friends— Smooths not another's rugged path alone, But scatters roses to adorn her own. One of the most amusing caricatures is the far famed and mach-dreaded Mrs. Turnbull, whose pre sence was like a nightmare to all on board. With her tracts and her treatises, her fearful denuncia tions of evil to come, and her pertinacious prose cution of her plans, she is, indeed, a dreary and a direful personage. Captain Malcolm, the ship's commander, is a fine specimen of a noble race— the true English sailor. Mr. Cox, the chief mate, is a dashing sketch, and his conduct is a curious mixture of the precise and the humouroas. Alto gether, with the peculiar features met with in the various passengers, the several styles of the crew, and the general spirit and tone of the work, this record of " The voyage of the Lady" is a most readable narrative, and those who have watched the good ship on her outward voyage will take leave of her with regret when she is at last arrived at her destined port in the capital of our mighty Indian empire. Another remarkable delineation is that of Captain Hawkins, who does sot appear very prominently on the scene, but who gives more promise indicative of belonging to that heroic sort who have made famous the name of England from the rising of the sun till the setting of the same. Of that stamp were the men who marched with Havelock to regain the lost and to make sure the precarious possessions then as sailed by fierce and unscrupulous foes. Among the other scenes of interest and excitement met with in these stirring pages there are one or two descrip tions of rough weather; and the fearful storm that the "Lady" luti to encounter near the end of her voyage is most powerfully narrated. Those who desire an entertaining, and yet an uncommon style of book, will do well to possess themselves of this chronicle of nautical adventures. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING TXB WEEK. (From the Report of the Registrar-General.) In great part of the week that ended on the 10th inst. the air was exceedingly cold; it continued cold in a less degree till near the end of last week ; and the London returns exhibit a consequent in crease in the mortality. The deaths, which had declined to 1,097,1 V3C aguiu Lu 1,563 in the week that ended last Saturday. In the ten years 1850-59 the average number of deaths in the weeks corre sponding with last week, corrected for increase of population, is 1,362. The deaths of last week were therefore in excess of the estimated number by 201. By comparing the results of the last two weeks it appears that the deaths by bronchitis rose from 230 to 267 ; those by pneumonia from 114 to 140 ; those by asthma from 20 to 27. Phthisis or pulmonary consumption, which carried off 143 persons in the previous week, was fatal last week to 171. The deaths from pulmonary diseases in the aggregate (exclusive of phthisis) were 450, while the corrected average for corresponding weeks did not exceed 305. Twenty-nine persons died last week from small pox, of whom nearly half were 15 years old and upwards. Of the whole number of deaths from this disease 13 were contributed by the districts on the south side of the river, chiefl by the Borough road sub-district, and St. Peter, \Valworth. There were 33 from scarlatina, and 10 from diphtheria. Of 8 deaths produced by burns and scalds, 2 were those of children whose clothes had caught fire, 2 also of children scalded by coffee in vessels acci dentally upset; two women died from their clothes taking fire, and another from burns received when in a state of intoxication. Five children were suf focated in bed ; and a woman was choked by a piece of meat. A painter died from ague and lead poi soning. A stone-mason in Devonshire-street, Bishopsgate, died in consequence of want, and a man, aged 74 years, gunner, R.N., at 23, Umber ston-street, St. George-in -the-East, from " want of proper and sufficient nourishment." Last week the births of 1,016 boys and 977 g irls , in all 2,023 child ren , were registered in Lon don.b' In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1850-49 he average number was 1.724. ROBBERY OF A LADY'S MARRIAGE JEWELS. At the Liverpool police 7 court, on Friday, Thomas Williams, the boatswain, and Wm. Dryhurst, a seaman, of the African mail steamer Armenian, were charged with stealing a box containing valu able jewellery. The following are the facts of the case, which were elicited after a lengthy investiga tion :—ln the month of December last M. Lucien Laulhe, of 96, Rue de Clery, Paris, forwarded a casket of jewellery to Boulogne, to the consignment of Mr. R. E. Atkins, who, in turn, forwarded it, via the London and North-Western Railway, to Liverpool. Messrs. Paris and Co., of Tower-build ings, to whom it was consigned, shipped the casket on board the Armenian, royal mail steamer, for the West Coast of Africa. The parcel, which con tained a pair of diamond bracelets, diamond ear rings, gold brooch, and a gold chain, of the whole value of £176, was consigned to Messrs. Hardison Brothers, of Teneriffe, by whom it was finally to be delivered to a party at one of the Canary Islands, the jewellery being intended as a marriage gift for a young lady. While the parcel was on board the Armenian it was, by some unexplained oversight, misplaced, and when the vessel arrived at Teneriffe, as it could not be found, the ship ult ima tely pro ceeded on her voyage without h avin g delivered the casket. It was known to the crew that theparcel had been missed, but nothing was seen of it until the ship arrived at Sierra Leone. While the steamer was at that port Williams a nd Dryhurst discovered the mislaid casket in the steamee . s maga.zine, concealed beneath some guns. They immediately secured and opened the em yt b y ox c , a a e nd o, r e c rb re o t a e r d d. its D eo ry nt h e m u n Ir t a s i subsequentlyg the obtained a quantity of twi ne fro th e 's store, wrapped the jewellery separatefive separate and con cealed th em in thestrawoe b of his bed. The Armenian returned to Liverpool on Monday last, and the five parcels of jewellery were removed from the ship by Dry hurst. He conveyed them outside the Wellin gton gates, i.h.. a a n n Ida then aand gave two of them to W illiams. 7 i. .. o i Dryhurst then believed t a h c a e t tlahrreien of the and lV o went parcels have since been disposed of. On Wednes day afternoon the two men called at the shop of Mr. W. Samuel, je eller, of Paradise-street, and offered for sale a pair of handsome and valuable gold bracelets, set with diamonds. Mr. Samuel's suspicions were aroused, and telling them to call on the following day, in the meantime communi cated with the police. Detective Cozens was sent in search of the men, and apprehended Williams, and from the information that prisoner gave after wards took Dryhurst into custody. On be ing told of the nature of the charge, both the prisoners admitted the misappropriation of the property. The prisoners were remanded f or a week, with the view of ascertaining what had be come of the property which had not been recovered, the only articles found up to the present time bein g the two I- acelets tendered for sale to Mr. Samuel.
