The report showed that its total income for the past year, from all sources, 1 ameunted to 2,8761., while the expenditure for the came i period, including 14001 paid in pensions to the aged and infirm dependents upon its funds, was lower than the income to the extent of 6941., which had accordingly been adde I to the fended property of the institution. In the course of the evening subscriptions to the amount of nearly 8001. were announced in the room, and the pro ceedings; terminated with much eclat. The musical. ar rangements were excellent, and the dinner, both for its profusion and admirable manner of serving, left nothing to be desired, either for the reputation of the house or comfort of the guests.

COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancailor and the Lords Justices, APPEAL.-VANSITrART V. VANSITTART. The further hearing of this part-heard appeal cause was resumed this morning. The contest between the parties in this suit was the validity of enforcing in a court of equity the specifio performanoe of an agreement for separation, entered into by the husband and wife, whereby for a valuable consideration to be paid by the husband to the wife, it was agreed to abandon an action of divorce in the ecclesiastical court—to live in a state f separation, a -epmate main;,3nance to be paid to the wife and children, and provision made for the custody and education of the children- -and a reference to arbi tration of all matters in difference between then. The plaintiff, by her bill, claimed specific performance of the agreement, and the cast° ly, maintenance, and education of her chiljren. The defendant demurred to the equity of the plain tiff's bill Vice-Chancellor Sir Wm. Page Wood allowed the demurrer and dismissed the plaintiff's bill. The plaintiff appealed against this decision. The hearing of c)unsel having been concluded, their Lordships now delivered judgment. Their Lordships were unanimously of opinion that they could not enforce specific performance of this agreement, on the ground that it was against the parental authority of the husband in the education and custody of his children. Their Lordships allowed the demurrer and dismissed the appeal with costs. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTH WALES CIRO UlT—WErsElPoord, MARCY{ WILLIAMS Y. COLLEY-BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. The plaintiff, Margaret Williams, sought to re cover 2001. damages for an alleged breach of pro mise to marry her. Defendant pleaded the general issues, and that if he did promise it was while he was intoxicated. Mr. V. Williams for plaintiff, Mr. M'lntyre fo: the defendant. The plaintiff, about 22, was the daughter of a small farmer, near Newtown, Montgomei yshire, and the defendant, whose age was about 45, was also the son of a farmer who formerly lived at the Weeg, Newtown. Although the defendant was, according to his own account, a man in independent circumstances, and the plaintiff, because her father was dead and there was a large family, was obliged to go to service, still they were in a similar position in life, In 1855 the plaintiff lived as servant at Mr. Harmer's, the Weeg. The defendant lived with his mother, near the Weeg, but had other means of getting money. Having seen the plain tiff, and being pleased with her good looks he courted her, and matters had so far progressed in Sept. that the dresses and ring, and the license, were procured, and the wedding arranged to take place in the early part of October. The happy morn arrived, and the wedding guests were assembled. Making an excuse the bridegroom left the house, and his absence being longer than it was thought right, one of the guests went out to look for him, when he was seen scampering over a hill in the dis tance as fast as he could go, dressed in his best as he was. Hysterics followed, and the unhappy young girl b2carue very ill. Ultimately she recovered, and became acquainted with another lover, by whom she had a child. However, the old lover returned, and plaintiff and defendant renewed their former intimacy. Marriage wag again proposed, and it was arranged that the wedding should take place at New town. Tins was in Oc!oher last, and the defendant came to Newtown, where he procured another ring and a license ; and to make matters more certain, he went early to a c3ttage of afriend near the church as be did not wish to excite observation, not being dressed in his last clothes. It was now thought the connubial knot would be tied without fail The wedding guests were again assembled, the betrothed were waiting anxiously the hour of nine, but the defendant was evidently restless ; he went in and out of the house nervomly. At length he fairly bolted from out the cottage garden, and was gone "never to return." After this flight, and seeing no chance of a marriage, an aciion was commenced. Mr. M'lntyre contended there was no evidence of promise having been given. This, however, was overruled by the judge ; and ju ry returned hearing the speeches of the couniel, the returned a verdict for plaintiff—damages 151. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Marda 11. MANSION-HOUSE.—A man, who did not give his name, but who looked like a respectable me chanic in the iron trade, presented himself in a ra ther excited state, before Alderman Hale, to com plain of a grievance. He said he went to Ostend on Monday morning in a Belgian steamer, having a situation to go to there at 2/. 12s. 6d. a week ; but directly he landed he was asked for his passport, and as he had not got one, he was at once marched off to gaol, while his little bundle, containing three shirts, some stockings, about half a❑ ounce of t,-a, and a quarter of a pound of sagar, was overhauled four or five times. He was kept in prison till the vessel sailed again, and then marched on board like a felon, and was that the treatment which ought to be extended to a British subject ho should like to know Mr. Goodman (chief clerk)—What do you come here for ? This is a police court. Applicant—Come here for 7 Why, I think it is my duty, as a British subject, to make my treat ment known to the Lord Mayor. Alderman Hale—l very much regret the incon venience !you have been put to ; but it seems to me that you brought it all on yourself by going there, in violation of their laivs, without a pa s port. Applicant—l did not wish to violate their laws, but I consulted a friend, and be told me I should not want a passport, as I was going no further from Ostend. Alderman Hale—We have nothing to do with it here. If you have any complaint to make, you had better go the Foreign-office. Applicant—l think it shameful that a British subject should be so treated. I was offered the means of supporting myself and family, and pawned one of my coats to enable me to go there, but they kept me in gaol from the moment I lauded till they put me on board the steamer again ; and I say here what I could not say there—that they kept me in such a state I could not sleep. I consider that I have been cruelly treated. The applicant then quitted the court in a state of great excitement. GUILDHALL. —George Thompson, a corn mer chant, described as of 16, Chichester place, Gray's inn -road, 6, Barnsbury-street, 4, Albion-grove, Islington, and' 9, Kingstnead-terrace, Bath, was brought up on a warrant before Alderman Cope land and Sir George Carroll, charged with non-sur render to his bankruptcy after due notice of adjudi cation had been served at his last known place of abode. Mr. Sleigh, instructed by Mr. Scott from tbe office of Mr. Smith, of Tokenhouse-yard, attended for the prosecution, and Mr. Lewis, jun., appeared for the bankrupt. Mr. Collins,"' managing clerk to Mr. Hambs‘r, at tached to Mr. Commissioner Goulburn's court, pro duced the proceedings in bankruptcy, containing the petition for adjudication, the adjudication by Mr. Commissioner Goulburn, the day limited for his surrender, and a memorandum that he did not surrender on the 21st of September last, notwith standing he had been proclaimed at twelve o'clock and at three o'clock on that day. John Dowler, assistant messenger to Mr. Ham ber, said he serve• a notice of adjudication in bank ruptcy on the 28th July last, by sticking up a copy over the man•el-piece in the front parlour of the bankrupt's residence, at 4, Albion-grove, Barns bury. Witness stayed in possession, but cli.l not see the bankrupt there. He served the summons to surrender on the 17th August in a similar man ner. He did not leave any notice at any of the places of business. Joseph Huggett, a detective officer, said he ap prehended the prisoner on a warrant in the corn market at Bath, where he was passing under the name of Lewis Grant. On seeing Mr. Walker, who accompanied witness, tilt, bankrupt said he was very glad they had found him. On searching pri soner, witness found one 1001. note, one 51. note, and 61. in gold, and at his lodgings, 9, King mead terrace, Bath, several account books, a cash-box containing a gold watch and chain, and a gold pen cil-case ; and at the New Qitay Granary a large quantity of new sacks and a stock of difE rent kinds of corn, formir g part of the bankrupt's estate. On arriving at the Moor-lane station in London he again searched the prisoner, and found a diamond ring concealed within the lining of one of his braces ; and the prisoner explained that the ring w as his wife's, and that was the reason he had con cealed it. _ _ Robert smith, a corn merchant, in the New Corn Exchange, in Mark-lane, said he had sold 70 quarters of oats, amounting to '851., on the 25th of May last, to the bankrupt, and on the Ist of June, 10 quarters of beans ; and they had not been paid for up to the present time. The prisoner was the person against whom the proceedings in bank ruptcy were taken. Augustus Walker, clerk to MeE , sre. Walker andl Co., of Wentworth Wharf, Upper Thames-street, I corn merchants anil flour factors, said their claims for goods sold to the bankrupt amounted to 2901., which amount was still unpaid. Mr. Wise, the landlord of the house 4,•Albion grove, identified the prisoner as the tenant of that house from Michaelmas, 1850, up to the present time. That was the prisoner's private residence. Mr. Grant, the prisoner's stepson, said the last time the bankrupt slept at 4, Albion-grove,was in July last. Mr. Sleigh said that was the whole of the case for the prosecution, but he thought it was right to in form his friend, Mr. Lewis, that he should probably prefer an indictment against the prisoner at the Old Ba . ley, for obtaining goods within 3 months of his bankruptcy, under false pretences, and with intent to cheat and defraud his creditors. The prisoner was then committed to take his trial at the Central Criminal Court. MARYLE BONE. —EMBEZZLEMENT BY A CLERK IN A TELEGRAPH OFFICE.--IMPORTANT TO THE PUBLIC. —A young man named Charles James Davis, a clerk in the office of the L9ndon Elec tric and International Telegraph Company, at their office at the railway station of the London and North-Western Railway, Euston-square, was placed at the bar before Mr. Long, charged with having embezzled ss. received by him for and on account of his employers. Mr. John Lawton, woollen manufacturer, Staley bridge, Staffordshire, depoed that on the 2d inst. he arrived in London by the train, and that he paid the prisoner ss. for the transmission of a message to his home ; he subsequently ascertained that his message had not been sent. Mr. Turner, a clerk in the office, proved that he had not received the money from the prisoner, whose duty it was to hand it to him. The prisoner had been absent from his post two days. Hull, 168 S, said that on the previous night be took the prisoner into custody at 10, John-street, Bermondsey, and that when told what he was charged with, ha said he certainly did receive the money and gavo a receipt for it. He felt sleepy and forgot to send the message, and when he awoke he tore up the the paper to light the gas with. The prisoner was committed. for trial. He was bailed for his being forthcoming at the sessions. WORSHIP-STREET.—EXTAORDINARY RAIL WAY ROBBERY.—Thomas Jones, 23 years of age, described as a hawker, but well known to the police as a swell mobsman, was charged before Mr. Hammill with stealing a valuable gold watch fr.( m the person of Mr. James She, a clerk in her Ma jesty's Customs, and residing in the Queen's-road, St. John's Wood. Prosecutor said—On the evening of the 18th of September last I was a passenger by the North London train from Fencburch street to Camden Town. When I first entered the carriage and took a seat by the door a young girl sat opposite me, but the prisoner immediately following me she resigned that position, and the removal brought him im mediately opposite to me. As the journey pro gressed his manner excited my attention, for I con sidered him intoxicated. He was ex , remelyrestless, frequently rose and looked out of the window, re seated himself, and repeatedly kicked my shins. The last time this occurred I turned and faced him, upon which he seized the gold chain suspended round my neck, opened the door of the carriage with his right hand, and sprang out ; the chain broke in two places, a portion remaining with me, but my watch had disappeared. I distinctly saw the thief fall, but the robbery and the escape were o nearly simultaneous, that although several per sons were in the same compartment, all were ap parently so astonished as to render them motionless. The tamn was at full speed at the time, and the spot selectad for this daring act I believe to be near the canal bridge of Sir George Ducket's canal, be tween Bow and Hackney-wick. Mr. Hammill—Have yeu any doubt that the prisoner is the man who robbed you ? Prosecutor—l have some, from ❑ow observing that the prisoner's whiskers are more scant than they then were, but in every other respect he is exceedingly like ; even the coat he wears I believe to be the same be then had on. His right arm was continually resting on the window ledge, and I par ticularly remarked the lining of the sleeve. Sergeant Francis, of the N division, deposed— About half-past eight o'clock on the evening of Friday, th- 18th of September, I was at Hackney Railway station, and was informed by Mr. Slits of this robbery, and a description of the thief. I in stantly suspected the prisoner, and proceeded along the line of railway towards Bow. Three men whom I met and questioned stated that they had seen a man without a hat a short time previous, and they believed him. to be an escaped lunatic. On the following morning, while searching, I discovered traces of some person having crossed among the weeds of the canal referred to, and I also found a quantity of blood in a field near the Victoria Park station, and, as I think, adjacent to the spot where the robbery was effected. Three or four days after wards I ascertained that the prisoner was in Hollo way Prison, under sentence by the Lord Mayor for larceny from the person, and his sentence expiring this day, I instruc , ed Burr, 426 N, being on sick leave myself, to take him into custody on this charge. On examination of the prisoner's trousers, I found a cut and corresponding scar on one of his legs. The watch has not been recovered. On a future day I shall be prepared with further evide,, ca. ,The prisoner, who denied the charge, and cross examined the witnesses with a view to shake their testimony of his identity, was then ordered to be brought up again this day week. SOUTHWARK. —SAVAGE ASSAULT ON A FE MALE.—THE SOCIAL EVlL.—William Knight, a lazy looking fellow, who stated himself to be a waterman, was brought up, charged with commit ting a brutal assault on Lucy Hamburn. The complainant, a poor miserable-looking young woman, who exhibited several bruises on the head and face, said she had lived with the prisoner about two years and a half. On the previous night when he came home, because she had no money to give him, he struck her and knocked her down. As she was . get , ing •up he seized a padlock and struck her on the face with it. She ran out of the house calling out "Murder," and meeting a police constable, they returned to the house, and she gave the prisoner into custody. The Magistrate asked her whether he ill-used her befo.e ? She replied that he was frequently in the habit of ill-using her because she could not supply him with money, but she never conirlained to a magi strate before. His worship asked her how he atained his livli hood I She answered that he was a waterman, but he seldom did any work. The magistrate inquired whether she followed any employment ? She replied that she did not.. Unfortunately she was compelled to walk the streets when the prisoner did not work to get food and pay their lodgings. The magistrate was surprised at a young woman living with such an idle fellow, and actually assist ing him by her prostitution. He asked how old she was ? She said that she was 20, and had no friends in London. When she first lived with the prisoner he was kind to her, and supported her. In answer to the charge the prisoner admitted having struck her, but she aggravated him very much. The magistrate told him he was a cowardly, idle vagabond, and persons of such a savage nature as he must be taught by the law to keep their passions under control. He must be committed to the House of Correction for two months with hard labour. HAMMERSMITH. —CRUELTY TO A PONY.—A boy named William Davis was charged by Seaman, one of the officers of the Royal Society for the Pre vention of Cruelty to Animals, with the following gross conduct to an old pony : It appeared from the evidence of Seaman that about three o'clock on Wednesday afternoon he was in the Uxbridge-road, when he saw the prisoner in charge of a pony attached to a wa- h - car fl t. ogg il in e g was standing crossways upon the shafts and unfortunate animal most unmercifully with the whip he had in his hand. Witness stopped him and asked him why he ill used the pony in that manner, to which he replied that it was old and worn out, and that he could not get it along. It appeared that he was going to Brentard for wash. Witness examined the pony, and found the pa r t s under the flank were v er y mu c h l acera t e d . Th e pony appeared very weak, and was certainly not in a fiitletaFteattohewr of work. ' the boy said the pony was well fed, hilt he was old, and all the victuals it could have wouldnot make the pony look any better. The Magistrate having cautioned the prisoner, finel him 2s. 6d., which heimmediately paid. ORDER OF THE MEDJIDIE.—Among the recipients of this order we Lind the name of Lieut. Slade of the 57th Regiment (the " old die bards," as they are called from their behaviour in the bloody and well-fought field of Albuera). Thia gallant young officer is the eldest son of F. W. Slade, Esq., Q.C., and is already decorated with the Crimean medal and the Sardinian Cross of Valour, and is now a student at the Staff College, Sandhurst, havii g taken a high place among 14 other officers, wh.) suocesefuily competed at the late examination at Burlington Nouse for 15 vacancies with 54 can(idates.

The message which was received from the clerk of the course, however, will remove all doubts on this subject. For the Doncaster Handicap, Gammoner, who on Monday had been made the first favourite, was sent to the ri g ht about, and Wrestler took the lead in the betting.

It is stated that as soon as the news reached the Queen, at OsbornB of the arrival at Southampton, in the Pera steamer, of the wounded officers from India, her Majesty telegraphed to the Admiralty-office at that port, revestiog to be furnished with their names and any other particulars respecting them. The strong personal, interest taken by her Majesty in all that relates to the army is well known to the public, and we trust that this prompt act of condescensioa may be looked upon as the forerunner of some appropriate reward to officers who hare deserved so well of their country.
