EQUITY COURTS.—Nov. 4. (Before the Lords Justices of Appeal.) MAXWELL V. MAXWELL. This was an appeal from the judgment of the Master of the Rolls upon a special cuss submitted for the opinion of the court, under the following circumstances:—ln the year 1821, Peter Constable Maxwell, a gentleman con nected with Scotland, but resident and domiciled in Yorkshire, and having both real and personal estate in England, and real estate, consisting of certain heritable securities, in Scotland, made his will in the English form, and executed and attested so as to pass real estate in England. By that will he, by virtue of every right, power, and authority enabling him in that behalf, gave, devised, and bequeathed unto and to the use of certain trustees named in the will, all his roll estate whatsoever and wheresoever, and whether in possession or reversion, upon trust for his wife for life, with remainder for the benefit of all his children. The testator died on the day of the date of the will; and as the will, for the want of the formalities prescribed by the Scotch law for the passing real estate, was inoperable pass the heritable securities in Scotland, these descended upon the testator's eldest son as his heir, according to the Scotch law. The object of the special case was to take the opinion of the court upon the question whether the eldest son was bound to elect be tween the real estate in Scotland to which ho had suc ceeded by de: cent, and the benefit given him by the will, or whether he was intitled to both the benefit under the will and the real estates descended. The Master of the Rolls, upon the hearing of the special case in May last, had come to the conclusion that the Case was covered by authority, and that the heir was not put to his election. Lord Justice Lord Cranworth said he concurred in the correctness of the conclusion to which his learned brother had arrived. He took the general rule to be that general words prima facie imported only what was capable of being operated u pon by th e w ill. Where it was evident on the face of the instrument that it was in tended to exiend beyond that limit, as where other property was mentioned in express terms as in many of the cases cited, that would be a ground of distinction. There was, however, nothing of the sort here, and the Court would therefore be doing what was not warrant able if it relied upon conjecture, however probable, as to the testator's intentio n , a s a g ro u nd for departing from the general rule in the construction of this will. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—Nov. 4. (Sittings in Banco.) CRIMINAL INFORMATION. _ _ In this case, Sir A. Cockburn, Q.C., moved for a rule on behalf of Earl Fitzhardinge. The alleged libel was contained in an article in the Cheltenham Chronicle of the 21st July, 1852. Sir Alexander Cockburn read this article, which was of some length, and charged the Earl, who is Lord• Lieutenant of the county of Gloucester, with having appointed a batch of deputy lieutenants for the purpose of serving his own political purposes. From the affidavit of Lord Fitzhardinge it appeared that he had not for some years appointed any deputy lieutenants prior to the passing of the Militia Bill ; that he had then con sidered, to carry out the purposes of that act. more deputy lieutenants ought to be appointed ; that he selected a list of the gentlemen whom he considered eligible for the office; that in selecting these gentlemen he was actuated by no political motive ; and :that the allegations of the article complained of in that respect were wholly devoid of truth. Sir. A. Cockburn was proceeding to comment upon the affidavit, when he was stopped by Lord Campbell, who remarked that this case was pre cisely similar to that of Lord Lonsdale (which was fully reported in The Sun in November, 1851), where a rule was granted, and that the learned gentleman might take a rule in this case also.—Rule accordingly. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—Nov. 4. (Sittings in Banco.) TODD V. KERRIDGE. This was an action tried before the Lord Chief Jus tice of the Common Pleas, at the last Guildford assiv , s, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff, with 351. damages. Mr. Edwin James now moved for a rule to show cause why a nonsuit should not bo entered pursuant to leave, or the verdict set aside, as being against the evidence. The facts of the case appeared to bo as fol lows:—The plaintiff who was a governess, l as t J une twelvemonth, advertised in the daily papers for a situation. In consequence of this, Mrs. Kerridge, wife of the defendant, who is treasurer for the county of Surrey, residing near Dorking, wrote to the plaintiff, who afterwards met Mr. and Mrs. Kerridge at an inn in Dorking, when an engagement was entered into. The plaintiff was dismissed from the defendant's service in the following October, and by the present action she had sought to recover damages for such dismissal before the expiration of a year. The whole question arose on the plea of the general issue, the point being whether a governess was a domestic, or menial servant, and there fore subject to the same rules and customs with respect to a hiring as domestic or menial servants. Mr. Baron Alderson—What is a governess in point of law? Mr. James—A governess is a governess, my lord. (Laughter.) Mr. Baron Alderson—Yes, no doubt. The Queen is a governess, in one point of view. (Laughter.) . . . _ Mr. Barou rarlte—No governor. The Court eventually said they would take timo to consider the matter. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.—Nov. 4. (Before Mr. Commissioner Phillips.) IN RE TII)3tAS STEVENS.-GOING TO AUSTRALIA. This insolvent, a young man, was opposed by Mr, Sargood for Messrs. Baker and Grover, wholesale gro cers at I. l ortsea. Mr. Dowse supported. The insolvent was a grocor at Selborne, near Gosport, and was to sail from the London Dscks on the I 1 th September last, with his wite to Australia. His pas lug° was paid, and o❑ the day the vessel sailed he was arrested at the Docks and conveyed to prison. his wife had sailed, and he now applied to the Court to be libe rated. Judgment was deferred to file a copy of a will under which the insolvent had an interest. Galloway, the British Consul at Naples, before whom tho mate and crew preferred a complaint against him. He believed they said ho was an habitual drunkard. The entry was a false one, and ho tore it. Mr. Ingham—A most improper proceeding, indeed, to destroy any part of the log-book. Mr. Ingham—How often were you under the influence of liqucr? Captain Nicholson—Well, I can't tell, I know it was very often. . _ _ The Magistrate stopped the case, remarking that there was no doubt that the mate had acted with the honest intention of doing his best for preserving the ship and the lives o❑ board.

Serjeant Adams, Assistant Judge.) APPEALS. Tho court sat to-day to hear appeals. The total number entered was 60, of which 7 were by the London and North Western Railway Company, against the Southampton (St. Pancras) trust rates ; 6 were appeals by the London and South Western Company against the poor rates of Staines. There were two other rate appeals, and one against a conviction. The remainder were parish appeals, the majority of which were either struck out or went off on motion. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. M ARLBOROUGH-S""z EET.—A fred Jonas Probin, described as a medical s. 111 It, was charged with having thrown a quantity of co) ♦e liquid over the face and person of Mary Fallon. The face and hands of the complainant were much disfigured in those places on which the liquid had fallen. The complainant said she was a single woman, living at 27, Deau-street, Soho. The defendant, with whom she was on intimate terms, came to her apartments and threw some burning stuff over her face. Sho was in great pain for tho time, and had been obliged to have medical advice. Mr. Gwallan, surgeon, 14, Dean-street, saw the com plainant soon after the stuff had been thrown over her, and found among other injuries that some stuff had gone into her eye, and that a good deal of inflammation had taken place. Tho stain on the face and hands appeared to have been produced by some kind of preparation of iodine, which was of a caustic nature. Witness had no doubt, from the appearance of the complainant and from her statement, that the whole of the injuries had been caused by iodine. If the injury was not attended to, it would not unlikely result in loss of si g ht. The defendant said some angry words passed between them, and in a moment of passion he threw the stuff over her. The complainant did not wish to press the charge. Mr. Bingham considered that the case was of too serious a character to bo compromised, and sent the pri soner for trial. THAMES.—John Fleck, chief mate of the ship Eliza beth Nicholson, from Palermo, was charged with assault ing Captain Nicholson, owner and master of the same ship, and imprisoning him in his own cabin. Captain Nicholson said the ship which he commanded had made a voyage from Shields to Naples, Palermo, and London. There had been several altercations between him and the mate on the voyage, and a very unpleasant feeling appeared to exist among the crew. On the Bth of September, after the mate had been very insolent, and boasted that he would put him below in confinement, he proceeded to adopt more severe measures. At that time the ship was south-east by south off Cape St. Vincent, 16 miles distant. Between the hours of four and si x o'clock the mate ordered him to go below, which he re fused to do. The mate then commenced playing his flute, and at eight o'clock repeated the order for him to go below a second time, and on his again refusing, th e taste called the hands aft, and they, with very little co remony, and by direction of the mate, f irced him over the companion and shoved him below into the cabin. He was then thrust into the mate's chair on the larboard side of the cabin, in which he was held back by John Smith, ono of the seamen, Ile told Smith to let go, and he said he would not, and must obey the mate's or ders. He was then lashed to the chair. The mate, who seemed in high spirits, seated himself in his (the captain's) chair, and made an entry in the log-book, which he never read to him, bat got nil hands to sign it. After this the crow were ordered to overhaul his berth, and they turned over everything, and took away what they thought proper, including the medicine chest, a small box of tools, a hitcher, and a bottle of brandy. He was then shoved into the state room, and the door locked upon him. Being very much vexed by such conduct, he forced open a small door, which he knew was held by two small nails, and rushed out of his place of confinement. Mr. Fleck immediately ordered the seamen to lash him a second time, and they succeeded, in spite of his resistance, and by force and violence lashed him to the leg of the cabin table. His arms were fastened by the elbows round his body, and his wrists were lashed with spun yarn, and fastened down to his right thigh. He was obliged to lie on the cabin floor, and he could wither sit nor stand. Cross-examined —He had torn a leaf out of the official lo; bqok. It contained an entry made by Captain NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSUOUTH, Noy. 4. The following midshipmen were examined yesterday on board the Victory, and found qualified for the rank of lieutenant:—Messrs. Henry B. Phillimore, of the Sins Pareil ; Augustus IT. Law, of the Encounter ; and 11. J. Challis, supernumerary of the Victory, late of the Growler. Mr. Hume J. Beatson, magtees-assistant, aloo qualified at the same tiny.: for second-master, R.N. The Avon steam tender arrived hero yesterday from Plymouth, with supernumeraries, and sailed again in the evening. The Norwegian steam-corvette Nidaros, Captain Hagerup, is daily expected at this port ; also the Hessian corvette Dvina ' now in the Chann a. Commodore Lord Adolphus Ficzolarence, G.C.H., ar rived at this port this afternoon, and hoisted his first class broad pendant on board the Blenheim, 60, for the purpose of saluting, when the customary gunpowder compliments were exchanged between that ship and the Port-Admiral's ship Victory. After which the pendant was struck on board the Blenheim and hoisted on board the Royal George, the hulk of the Royal yachts. We understand his Lordship: gave hospitable entertainment to her officers and crews on the occasion. The remains of Mr. Henry Davy, the late Master-At tendant of this dockyard, were removed to-day in the Devon lighter to Plymouth, for interment. ' The Encounter screw corvette, Captain O'Callaghan, has adjusted her compasses, and is now ready for service. The Duke of Wellington, screw three-decker, will be taken into dock to-day, to be coppered, &c. PLYMOUTH, Nov. 4. Her Majesty's borretteDido, Captain Moorshead, was yesterday towed up harbour by the Confiance and Pike steam-vessels.EAShe is to be placed in dock to have de jeers made good. The defects of the Rodney, 92, Captain Graham, C. 13., and Termagant, 24, screw-frigate, Captain Gifford, at Devonport, are to be made good; but it has not been stated whether they will go into harbour for that pur pose. Their lordships appear anxious that the St. Jean d'Acre, 101, screw-ship, at Devonport, should be has tened, and they have given directions for 150 more ship. wrights to be put on her. In order to give place to the Dido the Madagascar will be taken out of dock, where she was put on Tuesday to bo fitted as a store ship for Rio Janeiro to relieve the Crescent. The Avon sailed on Tuesday with supernumeraries for Portsmouth. Mr. Roberts, President of Monrovia, his lady, and suite, embarked on Monday, under a salute of seven guns, on board her Majesty's steamer Dee, Lieutenant- Commander G. S. C. Smith, which sailed this morning for Monrovia and the Cape of Good Hope. It will be satisfactory for merchants corresponding with the Cape of Good Hope to know that all the begs for that colony were transferred in Plymouth Sound, on the 15th October, to the General Screw Steam Shipping Company's mail packet Calcutta from the Melbourne (late Greenock), which sailed the same day, incurred damage on the 19th, and o❑ the 24th put into Lisbon with her mails saturated by leakage, top gear carried away, and every probability of her being obliged to go into dock, discharge cargo, and bo repaired.

NE W SYSTEM OF 'MANUFACTURING SUGAR. A few days rgo, we had an opportunity of witnessing an improved process for ranking sugar, recently invented and put in operation by Mr. IL Bessemer, civil engineer, at his premises, Baxter-house, Old St. Pancras•road, and, in common with several gentlemen practically con versant with the subject who were present, have to ex press the high gratification we experienced at the re sults brought under our notice. In the present condi tion of our West India colonies every improvement in the manufacture of sugar, and everything that tends t cheapen its production, cannot fail to excite interest, and a brief description of this now process may not there fore be unacceptable to the reader. This we shall at tempt to do in language as free from technicalities as the nature of the subject will admit of. In the manu facture of sugar from the cane the saccharine juice is by the usual system expressed by a roller-mill, which, on an average, obtains from 50 to 55 per cent. of juice; where as the cane, according to the most eminent writers, con tains 90 per cent., the remaining 35 per cent, being left in the " cane trash." Mr. Bessemer, by a great im provement on his original invention of the cane-press, is now enabled to obtain, by a principle of continuous pressure, from 75 to 80 per cent. without any additional cost. In order to produce granulated sugar from the juice of the cane it is necessary to separate a large pro portion of the water in which the saccahrine matter is held in solution. This has hitherto been effected by boiling the water passing off in the form of steam. It has, however, been discovered that the heat necessary to produce ebullition effects a rapid chemical decomposi tion of a largo portion of the sugar under operation, which assumes a dark brown or blackish colour, and is perfectly uncrystallizable, in which condition sugar is commonly known under the name of molasses or treacle, and amounts to 40 per cent. of the entire quantity of saccharine matter present in the juice. In the new pro cess just patented by Mr. Bess emer , thi s se p ara ti on o f the aqueous portion of the fluid is no longer effected by boiling, but is dependent on that beautiful law of nature by which evaporation is carried on s p on t aneous ly, an d every a o t f m o r s a p i h n e r a , g ain vaporizisd, and caused to ascend . To carry this into practi c e a small pan only is required,in which is placed a s c r e w o f a p , culiar construction, presenting about 6,000 superfi cial feet of surface, which is kept wetted by slowly revolve E i h n " th er e ing in the fluid to be evaporated ; and in contact with this wet surface some 10,000 cubic feet of warm atmos pheric air is forced per minute by a co mmon blowing fan. Tho aqueous portions of th e so l ut i on are t h us rapidly absorbed by the air, and pass oft as a perfectly invisitsle vapour, while the temperature of the fluid is only 110 degrees Fahrenheit. The most remediable fact is that the evaporation at this low temperature is equal to that of firepans of the same dimensions, with a powerful fire beneath them. A vast a mount o f f ue l i s thus saved, and a still snore important result obtained from evaporating at this low temperature is, that none of the saccharine matter is converted into molasses, nor is there the least perceptible increase of colour. Hence, not only is the quantity increased in this single process 40 per cent., but the superior quality of it would com mand, as we aro informed, 7s or 8s per cwt. i n the mar ket over the ordinary colonial produce. In the usual mode of manufacturing sugar, after the crystallization has taken place, the "mother liquor," in which the crystals aro formed, is separated b . y a very slo w p receli of drainage through holes made in the bottom of the hogsheads ; but, as the whole of the dark vi sc id s y rup will not drain out by the mere action of gravity, a coat ing is left upon the crystals, which renders them brown and of less value. By another most important invention of Mr. Bessemer this drainage is effect©d with extraordi- nary rapidity and perfection, by continuously pa ss i ng a very thin stratum of sugar over a fine wire gauze sur face, beneath which a partial vacuum is formed, and on which a number of fine jets of water (like a syringe) ar e allowed to flow ; the passage of the water through th e interstices betw ee n the crystals of sugar entirely r emoves the syrup from their surface, and rend . ere them at once sufficiently d ry f or s hipment. The time during w hi ch tho sug ar i s expose d to the action of the water is one seventh of a seco n d only, during which minute interval the water is drawn into the vacuum chamber, w i t h out being allowed sufficient time to dissolve any portion of the crystals. This instantaneous conversion of br own Sugar into white must however be witnessed to be appre ciated. Th ese are th e most striking, as they are the most useful inventions, applyed by Mr. Bessemer to the manufacture of swear, t h ou gh there are a variety of oth er important det a il s ' a description of which seems l ess called for. W e u nd ers t an d the improvements hav e re ceived th e appro b at i on o f n umerous scientific and prac tical men, several of whom have exp ressed the o p i nion that this adoption will bo ono of the first steps toward s the rest orrt i on of t h at pros p e rity which has so long be en withheld from our sugar -growing colonies, POISONING THROUGH EATING COCKLES —A most me lancholy sensation has been created in the neighbour hood of tbo Hotwells and Clifton, Bristol, in consequence of the death under circumsstancos of a very remarkable kind, of a fine little girl of six or seven years old, the daughter of a respectable tradesman named Stokes, who resides at the Mardyke.house, flotwell.road. The de ceased child was very fond of cockles, and she obtained permission of her parent to purchase a pint for her supper. No peculiar effect was observed immediately to follow the meal, and the child retired to her bed at her usual hour, and slept till early in the morning, when she awoke complaining of a burning sen sation in her throat and stomach, 'accompanied by excruciating. thirst. Soon after vomiting came on, and I subsequently violent purging and the symp toms which usually accompany the administration of irritant poisons. The symptoms continued, unchecked to any material extent, and at about five o'clock in the evening the little sufferer breathed her last. The death is ascribed to the pretence in the cockles of a kind of parasitic insect which is sometimes found contained in lkem. Nam - BANK.

TO THE EDITOR OF THU MORNING HERALD. Sis,—You were so good as to insert in your columns, a short time ago, a letter I had received from Geneva on the subject of the Madiais at Florence. The interest felt by the public is very great ; and I may therefore request you to publish the accompanying letter from Lord Roden, the head of the deputation to the Grsnd Duke from many of the Protestants of En gland and the Continent. Your very obedient servant, Nov. 3, 1852. SHAFTESBURY. (Copy.) Florence, Oct. 26,1852. Dear Lord Shaftesbury,—l feel it my duty, together with the other British members of the deputation, Lord Cavan, and Captain Trotter ; to communicate to you, as president of the Protestant Alliance, the course we have adopted since our arrival here, as well as the result of our endeavours to obtain the object for which we have been sent. On our arrival at Florence on the morning of the 22d, we found that some of the foreign members of our de putation were already arrived ; we immediately put our selves in communication witn them, and, after asking God's blessing and guidance upon our proceedings, we came to the resolution of addressing a letter at once to the Tucan Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, with out the intervention of any diplomatic agent ; praying to bo admitted an audience by his Imperial and Royal Highness tho Grand Duke. A copy of our ap plication I herewith enclose (No. 1). During many hours of close consultation for two successive days we wore engaged in discussing the substance of our address to the Grand Duke, should we bo admitted to the honour of an audience by his Imperial and Royal Highness. Lord Cavan, Captain Trotter, and I, felt that the great object of our mission was the case of the Madiai ; we were, therefore, unwilling to mix up any other subject with it, which might either retard or prevent altogether the release of those two faithful Christians, whose persecution has created so groat a sympathy throughout Europe. In the evening of yesterday we received a reply to our communication from the Duke of Cassaglione, a copy of which I also enclose (No. 2). We feel that the substance of this answer is such as to induce us to hope, that al though our immediate request has been denied, yet that it is the intention of his Imperial and Royal Highness to extend his pardon to the Madiai at no saw , taut period. We, therefore, think that it would be im prudent in us to take any further . step at the present time, except to send to the Duke of Cassaglione a copy of our address to his Imperial and Royal Highness had he favoured us with an audience—a copy of which I also enclose (No. 3). It is our intention to ask the leave of the Tuscan Government to visit the prisoners at Volterra, and at Lucca ; and, I hope on our return to England, we shall be able to give you and those whose delegates we are every information with respect to the circumstances in which the Madiai are placed, and the hopes which we entertain for their speedy release. We do not think it right to enter into greater detail at present, and will only add that we hope to finish our business hero so as to leave this, on our return home, early in the next week. We have great cause to be thankful to God for his great mercies, which we have received during the whole of this undertaking and in our long journey across Europe : and we are most grateful for those many prayers which wo know have been offered up on our behalf. Believe me, dear Lord Shaftesbury, Very sincerly yours, (Signed) RODE N. The Earl of Shaftsbory, President of the Protestant Alliance, London. The following is the letter of the Duke of Cassigliano above referred to : " Florence, Oct. 25, 1852. "My Lord,—l have submitted to my august Sove reign the letter addressed to me under date the 24th inst., signed by the gentlemen at the head of whom appears your name. " His Imperial and Royal Highness, while appre ciating the course you have adopted in this matter, would certainly have repelled any political pressure (pressiine) whatever, and the honourable diplomatic agents resident at this Court would have been careful to avoid it. " The Madiais (man and wife), Tuscan subjects, to whom you refer, have been condemned to fire years' imprisonment by the ordinary tribunals for the crime of propagating Protestantism (de propagande protestante), which is prescrihed by our laws as an attack upon the religion of the State. Their punishment is the appli cation of these laws, and their appeal for a reversal of their sentence has been rejected by the Court of Ces sation. _ His Imperial and Royal Highness, in reserving to himself the exercise of his high prerogative in such cases and at such times as he way judge right, cannot permit any interposition in a case which concerns the administration of justice in his States and his acts towards his own subjects. My august Sovereign, recognizing the benevolent sentiments by which you have been actuated, but not considering it necessary to listen to any kind of inter vention on this subject, commands mo to inform you, my Lord, that ho regrets being unable to grant the audience solicited by you and the other gentlemen who have signed the letter which has been addressed to me. " Accept, my Lord, and convey to those gentlemen, the assurance of my high consideration. " LE DUC DE CASSIGLIANO. " To the Right Hon. the Earl of Roden, blorence," In consequence of the refusal to off,rd an andience, Lord Roden, and his colleagues, acknowledging the pro mise on the part of the Grand Duke to exercise his pre rogative at the fitting moment, thought it incumbent in the discharge of their mandate, to present the following expression of sentiments which they had been authorised to lay before the Grand Duke : " Alonsigneur,—Your Imperial and Royal Highness already kncws with what object, and in what quality we have the honour to present ourselves before you ; not only have we avoided recourse to diplomatic intervention, which would have compromised the exclusively religious character of the step we have taken, but we manifest now again our express desire, that this step shall not be made the ground of any future political action. " Hero are only simple Christians, representing mil lions of other Christians, who desire no other arms than prayer—no other force than that of their Divine Master. This is an Embassy of a new kind, and which manifests, we dare to think, our respect for the sentiments of the Prince to whom it is sent. " Our brethren said to us, Go not in the name of such or such Protestant power, but in that of the Lord Jesus; bear to the Sovereign of Tuscany the expression of profound sympathy which is excited by the situation of Mons. and Madame Madiai. We dare to hope that sympathies so general will be taken into consideration by your Imperial and Royal Highness.' " We will not, Monseigneur, commit the impropriety of expressing au opinion upon the law that has been applied, and on the manner of its application. It does not belong to us truly to meddle with legislation, or th e admicistration of ,justice in your states. We feel simply the need of adding a word which will justify our pro ceedings, by showing that what we desire for partners of our oven creed we do not refuse to those who are straegers to our faith. " Roman Catholicism is free in the Protestant coun tries which wo represent. Your Imperial and Royal Highness comprehends why we rectal this fact. How could we have dared to address our memorial in favour of our brethren, the Madiais, if we knew not how to respect ourselves the liberty of Roman Catholics. " We should have been wanting in the profound re spect wo owe your Imperial Highness had wo hesitated to hold this language. " Respect is not only on our lips, it is in our hearts. The evangelical Christians who sent us hero have all learned by the study of the Holy Scriptures to honour established powers, and their prayers for your Imperial and Royal Highness are joined to those which from all parts et Europe and America rise for our brethren, the Madiais. " Wo dare to hop., Monseigneur, that your reply w give nouiplete joy to those who sent us. (Signed) " 110 DEN. A. DE GASPERIN. A. DE BONIN. CAVAN. F. DE Mar.lONT. TROTTER." , NEW WA TER Costrart Y.—The " Wandle Water and Sewage Company" has been formally introduced in the market, with a nominal capital of half a million sterling in 101. shares. It will be remembered that the bill embodying the objects of the proposed association actually engaged the attention of the Select Committee on the Metropolis Water Supply last session, but that owing to its being delayed till a late period of the session, it was judged expedient, with a view to avoiding unne cessary expenditure, that the bill should be withdrawn, upon the understanding that the same measure would be proceeded with in the new parliament. The objects of the association aro the supply of an unlimited quantity of pure water from the River Wandle and its vicinity to the inhabitants of the southern portion of the metropolis extending from Richmond to Deptford, Streatham and Norwood; and the simultaneous execution of sanitary improvements. The rates of charge aro to be much lower, it is stated, than those of the Lambeth and South wark and Vauxhall water companies. THE MEMORY' OF THE DEAD.—At a meeting of the corporation yesterday, one of the members, Mr. Codd, a Roman Catholic, submitted a motion to the effect that the Lord Mayor having apprised the House that the Earl Marshal has reserved for the members of the cor poration 25 places in St. Paul's Cathedral, to attend the funeral obsequies of the late illustrious Duke of Wel lington, his Lordship be requested to ascertain the names of the members who are desirous to be present on the occasion ; and should the number exceed that for which accommodation has been provided, that the members be then selected from those by ballot. After a sharp dia. mission the motion was carried by a majority of 26 to eight. The minority was wholly composed of Roman Catholics. IRON FOUNDERS IN GLASGOW.—The following are the number of foundries in Glasgow and suburbs, viz.: —North side of the town, 17 ; west side of ditto, 1 0 ; south side of ditto, 7 ; east side of ditto, 9 ; total, 43. These are all in full operation, with the exception of three standing. NEW FOREIGN llsatr.wAY.—lt is stated in n letters from Copenhagen that Sir Charles Fox, as was pated, has obtained the concession of the Roskilde- Kortor Railway on favourable terms, the state giving a guarantee of 4 per cent. The line is believed to be about 50 miles in length. It is understood, however, that some official formalities remain to be gone through. Surveys of the Copenllagen and Elsinore line are also being pro:ecuted on tted'ount of English opitsliata, AI3D-EL-KADER. The Constilutionnel makes the history of Abd-el- Kader the subject of a very long article, in which it says : Abi-el-Kader, in the wiar which he waged against France, had the merit of introducing a new law of na tions hitherto unknown in these countries. The Mus sulman, though charitable and hospitable during peace, is pitiless during war. From the time of the Turks, no prisoners were ever taken in the struggles of the Osman lis against the Arabs. Abd-el-Kader, imitating our ex ample, adopted another practice. Ho ono day gave un conditional liberty to 80 French prisoners, in return for which we released several thousand Arabs. We wish we could add that he always remained firm to these maxims. Would to God he had closed his ears to the sanguinary advice which was given to him at a moment of forgetful ness and despair. But let us draw a veil on the disae. trous scenes of the Moulouia, which we know have left a bitter souvenir in the heart of the Emir. The organis ing spirit of Ablel-Kader is not only manifested in th e administration of the tribes, but in the creation of his regular baltalions , of his disciplined cavalry, of his ar senals, cannon-foundries, and powder manufactories, and of all the means of defence which be brought into use to stop the conquest of the French. We must only speak with esteem of these attempts of a heroic enemy, who, admitting the superiority of our civilisation, endeavoured to acquire its secrets. What matters it if the event dis appointed his previsions, and if he could not, as he bad announced, make his horse drink at the fountain of the Great Mosque of Algiers, if his efforts have only tended to complete the work of our domination. It is not a trifling glory for him to have struggled against warriors such as Marshal Bugeaud and the young generals formed by the war in Africa ; the power of the conqueror is certainly a title of honour for the conquered. Too much praise cannot be given to tho obstinate courage of Abd-el-Kader in that memorable struggle. Some traits taken promiscuously will better show his character than long recitals, After the capture of the Smala he was told that his wife and those of his lchalifas had fallen into the bands of the French. The blow was a terrible one. Abd-el-Kader, apparently, at least, was unmoved. Praise be to God 1' he cried, these people cause mo much uneasiness, embarrass all my movements, and turn me from the right path. I shall be more free for the future to harass the infidels.' Understanding. besides, like a skilful politician, what influence might be exercised on his fortune by an event which destroyed his prestig', and e hicti had robbed him of his family end of his ser vants, he wrote on the following day to one of his khalifas, The French have made a razzia on my Smala during my absence. We have lost some women, but we are not ssrry for it, as we are less encumbered for war. The wives of Ben-Allel have been taken, but the next day he married the dauehter of Berkani; we, therefore, think no more of it.' His correspondence with his lieutenants, who became more and more discouraged, show him to be always indefatigable and ardent in the struggle; ap pealing by turns to ssntiments of religion and to inspira tions of patriotism, concealing his defeats, and, like a lion, evading by stratagem and turnings the pursuit of the huntsman. Abd-el-Kader never displayed more re sources of mind than in his days of adversity. His emissaries never ceased going through the country, creating diversions and re-lighting the torch of war. Twice compelled to take refuge in Morocc ), he at length succeeded in embroiling us with the Emperor Abderrah man—a difference which was put an end to by the bat tle of Islay. He afterwards attempted to dethrone the Emperor himself in order to renew the struggle with the Moorish forces. Failing, however, in his attempts, he again sought an asylum in our territory, and soon after delivered himself up into our hand, declaring that his role was finished, and that he had no other ambition than to live free and unknown in a Mussulman country. Never could a greater homage be paid to the generosity of our country. He would have been pitilessly put to death by A bderrahman; with us ho found an honour able captivity, and now he has had full and entire liberty given him; ho is treated by us not as an old enemy, but as a friend." 16,908 7,740 29,017 15,090 ,COUNTRY -MARKETS, DERBY SMITHFIELD MARKET, NOY, 2.—Thero a good supply of fat beasts to-day, but the demand flat.
