Best Booms.—For our own part, we think there is somethingperfecty terrifying in being askedaars into a fine, stately drawing - room , the polishe shining with unnatural brightness the fire-irons arranged in stiff angles, evidently never WT . ' priated to their purpose—the tables viost geometrically studded with glossy, unread volumes o f rubbish, and the besilked and betasselled sofas looking as i f they were in tended for anything but sitting on. We give an involun tary shudder as we are left to gaze upon costly chimney ornaments and japanned screens, whi' e the lady of the house is, most probably, making a rush to execute the metamor phose of dress and cap. We would much rather have been introduced to the common parlour, where we should have beheld some signs of social vitality, and thawed ourselves i n to good-humoured cheerfulness ; but then and there we m i g ht have seen a basket of stockings and socks undergoing the process of repair ; the youngsters might have been lug ging.the chairs about, and left a tailless horse and wheelless cart in the foreground. We might have formed suspicions that bloaters had been among the matin condiments, and oh I most dire of all I we might have found the mistress in a somewhat rumpled morning wrapper and a " fright of a cap ;" still we should greatly prefer the risks of breaking our neck over Noah's ark, sitting down on a heap of un darned hose, and encountering a fifth-rate head-gear, to the petrifying, topsirit-damng fifteen minutes we are often sentenced in a "bet room." The children, if there happened to be such humanising things in the esta blishment, look upon the walls with a sort of reli gious awe. They never " play" in the " best room ;" they never dream of clutching at the splendid bell-rope ; they never have the most remote idea of making Lord Ma or" s coaches of the embroidered footstools ; they never ma of playing " 80-peep" behind the richly-fringed damask drapery ; they never dare to speculate as to whether, with a stout pin, they could pick out the eyes of the queer little man on the Indian card-box ; mirth and mischief are thoroughly mesmerised, and the little darlings sit or stand as though their life-tide had been suddenly manufactured into the " best starch."—Elica Cook's " Jottings from stay Journal."

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. ;Before the Lord Chief Justin and a Special Jury.) WHITTY V. VISCOUNT DILLON. This was an action brought for the recovery of the com mission upon the valuation of the timber on his lordship's estate, of which he was desirous of disposing during his lifetime, on account of his leaving no heir to the title or estate. The claim was resisted, owing to the value of the timber being disputed. The case,which was totally devoid of public interest, was expected to last the whole day. EXCHEQUER COURT. (Before the Lord Chief Baron and a Common Jury.) CUSANI V. DALE-BREA6II OP PROMISE. This was an Reim brought by Olt plaintiff against the defendant, a tradesman rokling at Doncaster. The pro mise was not denied, but the question in dispute was that of damages. Mr. Sergeant Shee was for the plaintiff, and Mr. Digby Seymour and Mr. Jones for the defendant. The plaintiff, it appeared, was the daughter of a dealer and importer of foreign birds, in the disposal of which the daughter assisted. It was during a visit to Dancaster upon business that the plaintiff first became acquainted with the defendant, and after some time that acquaintance ripened into love. After a correspondence of some length the de fendant made a promise to marry the plaintiX as soon as the necessary arrangements could be made. Everything ent on happily for some time, but after the marriage had been deferred for a considerable period the defendant was asked his rcason for so long delaying the performance of his promise. He made various excuses, one of whiA was that he could not find a shop which would suit his purpos", as he was anxious on his marriage to increase his business, and would require large premises. After a further delay the defendant was again asked about his marriage, when it turned out that his affections had been previously be stowed on another young lady, who had been absent for some time. On the lady on wham his "first love" had been bestowed again appearing, he wrote to the plaintiff, telling her the whole facts of the case, explaining to her that the passion he thought dead had revived, and that however much he admired her ho could not overcome his former attachment. There was no question against the amiability or virtue of the plaintif f , and the case was only an illustration of the old saying, "Be sure you are off with the old love before you are on with the new." The jury found a vet clict for the plaintiff—damages, £lO THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Six o'clock, AUSTRALIA. The following telegram has been received at Mr. Reuter 's office : SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY.

ALBERT GUARANTEE SOCIETY. • In this case the rule was discharged. The action had been brought against the Albert Guarantee Company to make good certain deficiencies that had been discovered in the accounts of a clerk for which the company was security. In the first action a verdict was given against the company for £lB only, but a rule was obtained by the plaintiff for the setting aside' that verdict on various grounds. OA cause being shown against the rule this morning, the Court was of opinion that the verdict ought to stand, viz., for the plaintiff, for the sum of £lB, but without costs against the company. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAI . MARLBOROUGH -STREET. A DESPERATE THlEF.—Dennis Larry, a rough-looking fellow, one of a number who nightly hang about the Hay market, was charged before Mr. Beadon with stealing a pocket-book from the p:7rson of Mr^. John Ainsley, mess man of the Tower Hamlets Militia, St. George's Barracks. The prosecutor said that, seeing a disturbance in the Haymarket, at half-past ono that, morning, he stopped a moment to see the cause of it, when he felt a touch at his pocket ;he turned round and saw his pocket-book in the prisoner's hand, and another man, tried to take it away. He detained the prisoner, the other man getting away, when the prisoner became very violent, and bit his hand. As there was a large mob, he got a cab and went to the police station for more assistance to quiet the mob. Charles Brown, 304 A, said he saw the prosecutor take the pocket book from the prisoner's hand. On the way to the station the prisoner kicked several times in a violent manner, and a young man who assisted him (Brown) was also assaulted by the prisoner. The prisoner, making a strong but ineffectual attempt to get up a cry, said he was " guilty." Mr. Beadon said the prisoner was not content with steal ing the pocket-book of the prosecutor, but also bit bim and assaulted the constable. He should commit him for six months with hard labour, and he was obliged to Mr. Ains ley for the way in which he had acted. THAMES. ILLEGALLY PAWNING CAUTION TO PAWNBROKERS. —An assistant in the employ of Mr. William Byas, a pawnbroker, of No. 147, Rateliff-highway, appeared before Mr. Selfe to answer to a summons taken out against his master by a foreign tailor, residing in Whitechapel, for taking in pawn five pairs of moleskin troasors, the same being in an unfinished state, contrary to the statute. It appeared that the prosecutor had given the materials, 10 pairs of trousers, to a poor woman named Harriet Sim mons, to be made up, and the whole of them had been pawned. The woman was taken into c ustod y by a police constable named Pearce, No. 120 H, and she was ar• raigned on the charge of illegally pawning, ordered to leave the dock, and go into the witness box. On being sworn she stated that she pawned the five pairs of as trousers now produced at the shop of Mr. By. Three were pawned at one time on the 18th of April, and two pairs on the 12th of the same month. She lent her landlady five other pairs, and they were also pawned at the defendant's shop. Mr. Byas's assistant said he only knew of the five pairs of trousers produced, and they were finished. Tho prosecutor said the trousers were not finished—they were not pressed, and could not be sold in the state they were in. He had been a great loser by the system adopted by many pawnbrokers, of taking up shop 'work which he gave out to poor women to be made Mr. Selfe said if the trousers were finished it must have been apparent to the pawnbroker that the goods did not be long to the woman who pledged them. It was not likely she would buy three pairs of moleskin trousers one day and two pairs on another in an incomplete state for the purpose of pawning them. There was not a worse evil in existence than the practice of pawnbrokers taking in slop work. It led to great misery and the ruin of many persons. lle would put a stop to it if he could. Ile fined the defen dant £2 2s. 6d., being double the value of the trousers Pawned, and they must be restored to the prosecutor. The penalty was instantly paid. LORD BROUGuAm.--The rumour that Lord Brougham was engag e d i n th e com p os ition of a complete treatise on the British Constitution turns out to be correct. It wili, we understand, be published du ing the ensuing winter by Messrs. Griffin and Co.—Critic. Mr. Murray has in the press, and will shortly publish, Francis Bacon, Lord Chancellor of England,' by Hepworth Dixon, being an inquiry into his life and cha racter based on letters and documents hitherto unpublished. This work, though new in form and in material, will con tain the substance of the articles which appeared in the " Athenteum" in January last. CALEDONIAN FANCY DRESS BALL.—This annual fete, in aid of the Scottish charities of the metropolis, has been again so fortunate as to secure the Queen's especial p a tronage ; and from th e i n t eres t it has occasioned in fashionable circles there is every reason to believe the pre sent ball will prove a great success. A meeting of the pa trenesses took place on Thursday, at which the following ladies were present :—The Duchess of Atholl, the Duchess of Roxburgh°, the Countess of Kinnoull, the Countess of Eglinton, the Countess of Fif e , the Lady Anne Mackenzie, the Lady Louisa Moncrioff,.the Lady Aveland, Lady Heron Maxwell, and Mte. Farquharson of luvercauld. After the usual routine matters had been considered and approved, it was announced that three fancy qua d r ill es wou ld b e f orm ed un der the several directions of the Countess of Fife, the Countess of Kinneull, and the Countess of Eglinton. Lady Fife's quadrille will be danced in Highland costume. The other " sets" are not yet designated. TM KING OF NAPLES AND THE POPE.—If seems, however, that the wretched King, whom the Jesuits have trained up in superstition and bigotry, is himself so alarmed by Garibaldi's progress as to show symptoms of the most abject fear. It is stated on go o d au th or i t y th a t o n one day he telegraphed five ' times tothe Pope to implore the protec ' tion of the Pontiffs blessing. Three times the blessing was sent by the Pope along th e w i res ; b u t w h en th e same charm was solicited for the fourth and fifth time, the offi cials were directed to send the blessing without harassing the poor Pope, wh o authorised any number of benedictions to be sent off ready-made to the panic-stricken pupil of the Jesuits.—Eecord. EXTENSIVE TOBACCO SEIZURE.—The Hampshire County Police made an extensive &Azure of tobacco on Thursday morning, near the New Inn, at Westend, a vil lage about three miles from S in Southampton. The prize con sisted of 36 bales, each containing a half cwt. of unmanu factured tobacco, a waggon drawn by two horses, pos session of the whole of which was taken by the lucky cap tors a nd the tobacco lodged in the Queen's warehouse in the , S ou thampton Docks., The driver of the waggon was taken into custody. The name and address of "Eli Stone, Salisbury, Wilts," were on the waggon . FAGGING WORK OF PRIVATE SECRETARIES, 'Do you mean work ? I thought you had about the easiest berth in the whole Civil Service." "Ah 1 that's just the mistake that people make. Because we don't cover whole reams of foolscap paper at the rate of 15 lines to a page, and five words to a line, people think that we, private secre taries, have got nothing to do. Look here," and he tossed over scornfully a dozen or so of little notes. " I tell you what, Mark ; it is no eas y thi ng t o m anage the patronage of a Cabinet Minister. Now I am bound to write to every one of these fellows a letter that will please him ; and yet I shall refuse to every one of them the request which he asks." " That must be difficult?' "Difficult is no word for it. But, after all it consists chiefly in the knack of the thin... One must have the wit from such ash ,rp and Waspis% word as No to pluck the sting.' Ido it cvery day, and I really think that the people like it." " Perhaps your refusals are better than other peoples acquiescences." "I don't mean that at all. We, private secretaries, have all to do the same thing Now, would you believe it ? I have used up three lifts of note paper already in telling people that there is no vacancy for a lobby messenger the Petty Bag office. Seven peeresses have asked for it for their favourite foot men. But there—there's the Lord Petty Bag." Cornhill .11a9azin-e. BRITISH MINES. Share Mines. Closing I B Don u sine. ess Paid.'

Vice Admiral Arthur Fanshawe, K.C.8., struck his flag on board the Impregnable, 104, on Wednes day evening at sunset, and went on a month's leave of absence. The duties of Port-Admiral will de volve on Sir T. S. Pasley, Admiral Superintendent of the Devonport Dockyard. The trial of the engines of the paddlewheel steam sloop Geyser, 6, has given entire satisfaction. She was taken to the sheer hulk at Devonport on Thurs day to have her masts put in. The screw gunvessel Wrangler, 4, Commander Beamish, is to have her defects made good at Dcvonport. She went into Hamoaze on Thursday afternoon for that purpose. The paddlewheel steam tender Advice, M. Ray mond, second master commanding, will have her defects made good at Devonport, and return to Queenstown. The Hecate, 6, paddle, arrived at Spithcad yes terday morning from the eastward. The Lizard paddlewheel steamvessel, Lieut. E. E. Maunsell, has arrived at Sheerness from Devon port and Portsmouth, with supernumeraries for the Barracouta, 6, paddlewheel steamsloop, Commander W. Wood, and the Torch, 5, screw steam gunboat, commissioned at Chatham, by Commander F. H. Smith. Admiralty orders were yesterday received at the office of the steam reserve in Woolwich Dockyard, instructing the enrolment of first and second class boys for the navy, at present limited to 20 per week, to be increased to 50 per week. The days ap pointed for the examination and reception of the recruits have been fixed for Tuesdays and Thurs days in each week. The following transports have been chartered by the War Department for the shipment of stores from Woolwich,—the Eliza Nelson, Gottenburg, Prosperous, Scorfie, and Plover. Mr. T. 11.

The annual inspection of the Royal Marine Artillery at their head-quarters, Fort Cumberland, near Portsmouth, was concluded yesterday by a display of practice from mortars, guns, and rockets, such as is seldom witnessed in a single day. The weather was beAutifulty fine—a southerly breeze sufficient to cool the sun's glare, but not sufficiently strong to produce any adverse effect on the flight of any of the various projectiles fired. Half-past one was the hour named for the commencement of the proceedings, and about that time the bugle sound ing the assembly in the square of the fort gave the first note of preparation, and the deputy-adjutant general of the corps, Major-General S. R. Wesley, commenced his inspection, accompanied by Colonel- Commandant G. Frazer and a staff of officers. The two Armstrong guns at once attracted the attention of the general, and their crews were put through a sharp course of drill, at the conclusion of which the general not only expressed his satisfaction at what he had seen, but also his surprise at the cir cumstance of no ammunition having been yet re c&ved at the fort for these guns. The Laboratory was next visited, where the first course of practical gunnery was gone through with a p Arty of men summoned promiscuously from the rinks. The principle and formation of Sir W. Armstrong's beautiful " time" and percussion fusees was also minutely entered into, and questions put to the men relating to it, the answers to which and also to the course of gunnery elici!ed the warmest com mendations from the General. The next point visited was the enclosed battery of 8-inch guns, reprei.enting a section of a ship's side, and the 10- inch land service mortar battery. Practice was first commenced from the ship gun battery at a target, about six feet square, distant 550 yards. The target was swept away at the first discharge ; a pole, which had been left standing, went the 1 second ; and the remainder of the shots displayed an extraordinary degree of excellence for quick firing. The mortar 10-inch battery followed suite, the mark aimed at being a flag at 560 yards. A salvo from four mortars was fired, and the flag dis appeared. Two more salvos followed, and all the shells fell at the spot where the flag had been hoisted. This firing was all the more creditable, as, on the word being first given in the batteries, " Prepare for action," three non-commissioned officers stepped in to lay the mortars. The General, however, ordered them to fall back, and directed that three younger soldiers should take their places. The General and his Staff next proceeded to the beach in front of the fort, where was drawn up a battery of field guns, comprising one 12- pounder ihedium gun, one 8-inch howitzer, two 24-pounder howitzers, and three 12-pounder how itzers, all ordered for firing with diaphgram shell ; a rocket battery, consisting of three 12-pounder tubes, and one 24-pounder. The 32-pounder shell gun on the south-east portion of the works was also ready to join Li with solid shot and shell. Splendid practice was made from all ; the diaphragm shells bursting over the poles at sea, representing targets, at 1,000 and 1,600 yards distance. It was the opi nion of many officers well known for their skill in gunnery, and who were on the ground to see the practice, that better firing could not be exhibited. The whole closed with the discharge of a 24-pound rocket at 45 degrees of elevation, the flight of which was magnificent beyond description. " Cease fir ing" was now sounded by the buglers in the rear of the guns, and the men were marched into the fort and all mustered, with the officers at their head, on parade ground, where Major-General Wesley pro ceeded, and addressed them in highly eulogistic terms, alluding particularly to the firing from the 10-inch mortars, and expressing the g ratification it afforded him of being enabled to report so favour ably to the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty o n the thoroughly efficient stete of the division. The men were then dismissed to their quarters, and thus concluded one of the most satisfactory inspec tions that perhaps has ever been made in the an nals of that corps. The 2d battalion, 11th Regiment, arrived at Ports mouth yesterday from Aldershott. Capt. Saunders's I Battery of Royal Horse Ar tillery arrived at head-quarters, Woolwich, from Norwich, was yesterday inspected on Woolwich common by Colonel D'Aguilar, C. 8., in the absence of Colonel Lake. C. 8., who was seized a few weeks ago, on parade, with a sudden and severe attack of paralysis, which it is feared will incapacitate him for further service. The troops, whose guns have been exchanged for the Armstrong, went through a course of offensive and defensive moyements, and a general round of field manoeuvres, and acquitted themselves with marked satisfaction. It seas yesterday announced at Woolwich that the Whitwerth 80-pounder gun at present deposited in Woolwich Dockyard, and which was recently tired off at Shoeburyness against the iron-elamped sides of the Trusty, has been purchased by the War Department for experimental purposes, to be car ried on under the direction and supervision of the most experienced artillery officers. The experi ments will take place on Southsea-common. 'The screw steam transport in the service of the War Department, the Lord Panmure, Mr. H. T. Moore, commander, sailed yesterday from Wool , with Arsenal, laden with the following stores:- 2,500 boxes of Martin's patent shells for firing liquid metal, 1,600 boxes containing 8 inch shells, 150 ditto 32-pounders, 135 ditto 68-pounders, and 150 boxes of solid shot; together with 1,000 pen tagon improvedpowder cases, eight heavy g un car . riages, &c. MOB 211BETEVG OF KI MS. There are times in the lives of all men when they have a claim to our pity, and just now the man with most clalin to it is the Emperor of the French. He is encountering almost irresistible temptation. But the other day it was arranged that he should go to Baden Baden to meet the Prince Regent of Prussia, in order, it was said to renew the mutual confidence shaken by some expressions in a private letter which a busybody had got hold of and taken to Paris. The Emperor must Fee the Prince of Prussia, and receive from his own lips the assurance that no Minister could be authorised to convey. So the Prince of Prussia arrived at Baden on Thursday evening, and the Emperor was ex pected to arrive last night. The story, as told, affected nobody else, and there was no reason why the two should not despatch the business in half-an hour, and be gone their several ways. But Ger many does not give Emperors so scant a measure of civility.. When a great pike comes into her waters every mmnowmust come to greet him. There they all are—such a conflux as one never thought to seo till the Archangel gathered them. The Grand Duke of Baden, the King of Bavaria, and the Grand Duke of Saxe Weimar had already arrived yester day afternoon. There were expected the Kings of Saxony,' Vtrurternberg, and Hanover, the Grand Duke of Hesse Darmstadt; the Dukes of Coburg, Gotha and Nassau. All the Kings, and it is not said how many other Sovereign Princes, are to as sist at the meeting between the Emperor and the Prince Regent. What can all this mean ? One certainly has read of the like before. It used to be said that "history never repeats itself," but an older authority says " there is nothing new under the sun." If you open a window in a summer evening you have a similar result. Moth after moth emerges from the outer darkness, flies at the candles, wheels a giddy circle or two, is absorbed in ;he fiery vortex, and falls to the table writhing and spirmingin un availing agony. All there people are just. doing whet their fathers did before them. It. runs in the bloat!. A great E:iglish naturalist affirms that trout inherit from their forefathers a horror of the hook and a scepticism as to bait. The German trout love the hook and rise at the coarsest bait.. Nothing deters them. The German crow sees his father nailed to the barn door, and flies into the selfsame toils. The visit of the Prince Regent to Baden is, of course, casual. lie happened to be going there by the invariable ill-luck that is always taking a. cer tain class of persons into harm's way. The Empe ror of the French, hearing of his visit, invites himself to share the pleasure of the excursion. The Prince Regent is afraid that the smaller Powers of Germany will put an ill construction on the in terview, and conclude, in fact, that in return for the Rhenish provinces the Emperor is about to present Prussia with a sackfull cf little crowns. Nothing, however, would please the Emperor so much as a personal interview with the numerous victims of these morbid suspicions. So they are 01l to be present—ostensibly to FCC that they are not sold in their absence, but we should think also with the idea that positive advantages are not altogether out of the question, The man who can destroy them can do them good, if he thinks fit- The mlp of Europe is disjointed ; landmarks are removed ; there is giving and taking; a State threatened with absorption may reasonably plead not only for ex istence, but for a modest degree of aggrandize ment ; so every crowned head in Germany, except Austria, is to do honour to the Emperor of the French. how pleasant it must be to be reminded of the events not quite two generations back Would they like another Confederation of the Rhino? The gambling-tables are opened on that familiar scene, and principalities are the stake. Is it to be roulette or rouge-et-noir ? We should like to see them all put down their title-deeds on the table, and to watch their countenances as the Im perial croupier rakes them all into his heap. It is scarcely possible to pity those who invoke their own doom, and commitle/o de se in the act of dishonest expectation. The Emperoes feelings can only be those of a modern sportsman as he enters a well-stocked preserve, and sees the foolish birds bustling about on all sides. Let us put ourselves among the bystanders at this new " Conversation House," as they call the place at Baden, and bet how many rouleaux the Emperor will win, and how much small change he will fling back to the Prince of Prussia. He really cannot help it. "It is the curse of kings to be surrounded." We need not say that Austria is delighted. The meeting at Vil:afranca was nothing to this, for :low could the Emperor of Austria help the stupidity of his generals ? Indeed, he made the beat bargain ho could, and certainly did not court his fate by obsequiousness. Nothing, however, but an actual appetite for self-humiliation could bring Prussia, with a crowd of small sovereigns, to attend the levee of a French Emperor at Baden ! For our part, we are sorry to see the material of which Central Europe is composed. We seem to be surrounded by illusions. They seem to flutter round a substan tial Emperor in flesh and blood as the shades gaped and gibbered about YEneas in the infernal regions. It is of no use to have even wishes about such peaple. they must go their own way, for good or for evil. If they simply disappear, it cab make no difference, and certainly will not diminish the stock of Euro van virtue. — Times. THE NORTH ATLANTIC TELEGR4PH. TO 311 E EDITOR OF TDE SUN. you allow me, in reply to numerous inquires, to state, in very fow words, the progress and present position of this undertaking P In answer to the application for a survey of the seas and coasts on the route of the proposed tele grapl,, made by the deputation -which waited on Lord Palmerston in last, the following l‘Ater Las been received ftom the Srcrctery of the Admi ralty : " Admiralty, Junv 6, ISGO. 4 ' Gentleman—ln reply to your letter of this date requesting to be informed what assistance her Majesty's Government have decided to give in sur veying the proposed route for telegraphic commu nication with America via the Fai oe Islands, Iceland, and Greenland, I am commanded by my Lords Com missioners of the Admiralty to acquaint you that Lord Palmerston was informed that my Lords would take immediate steps to prepare one steam-vessel for the purpose of obtaining deep sea soundings en the proposed line of telegraphic communication which they consider will be advantageous upon general grounds , as well as for the advantage of any company which may hereafter be prepared to establish such communication with the continent of America by the route in question; but their lord ships are not prepared, nor are the means at pre sent available, to enable them to undertake a de tailed survey of the costs of the proposed route.—l am, gentlemen, your most obedient servant, " W.

Hamilton's Inlet on the Labrador coast. The ex pedition will also on its return take a line of sound ings fifty miles south of the outward voyage. The steamer Bulldog, under the command of Sir Leo pold M'Clintock, has been ordered for this service, and will sail on the 20th inst. To complete the survey of the whole route, the steam yacht Fox has been purchased, and Captaia Allen Young, of Arctic reputation, engaged to pro ceed in command of her to survey the coasts where the cables will be la id.

AMr RICAN RIFLES FOR GARIBALDL — The orga nisation of the insurrectional Government of Sicily is being continued with great activity. Among the last decrees issued by the Dictator is one which merits special mention. It has for object that the domains of the Crown in the island aro to be divided between the volunteers who have followed Garibaldi and the poor citizens who have taken part in the revolt. News had reached Palermo that a vessel laden with 25,000 muskets and revolvers purchased in America had put in at Cork. It is stated positively that a commis sioner, delegated by the Dictator, is about to be sent to that port in order to arrange the best means to be adopted to ' enable these arms to reach their destination, 61; ; 9134 d 4 t I 1 , 851 21 140 142 102 101 1 PI 91 WI 10 111 12 p LO 112 2.14.5 7.4.0 d iROTHER REFORM BILL.
