The Lord Chancellor heard unopposed lunatic peti tions mid appeals to-day. JUDGMENT.—THE DUKE OF LEEDS V. EARL AMHERST. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment to-day in this case, the arguments in which were concluded yesterday. We have already given a statement of the facts of the case, which came before the Court upon an appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor of England, direct ing an account to be taken of the sums received by the late Duke of Leeds, for waste committed by him indestroying the old baronial mansion of ICiveton Hall, disparking the park, and cutting down the timber upon it. His Lord ship was clearly of opinion that every point urged by the appellant had failed, and that the appeal ought to be dismissed with costs. His LORDSHIP having disposed of the unopposed lu natic petition on his paper, proceeded to hear the further arguments on the part-heard appeal of " Minor v. Minor," which involved a question of breach of trust in the management of certain estates. This case occupied ,the Court the whole morning. obtained the said judgment without giving any pre vious notice to the plaintiffs, so as to enable them to get the bill of exceptions sealed. The main object now sought was the sealing of the bill of excep tions. The bill of exceptions was most important, as it not only set forth that Norman as well as the other three was guilty of the act complained of, but that the plea of justification was not founded in truth ; and that, therefore, the Learned Judge misdirected the jury in in structing them to deliver the verdict they had given. The two defendants, Roe and Norman, were proprietors, publishers, and editors of a Cheltenham newspaper, and Bootle and the other defendant were their attorneys. The Learned Gentleman went at great length into the facts of the case, to establish the grounds on which he made the application. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said, there were not suffi cient facts before them to conclude whether the long delay in not sealing the bill of exceptions between the trial and the death of the late Lord Chief Justice had arisen from the negligence of the plaintiff. Still, n order that substantial justice might be done to the parties under the peculiar circumstances of the case, the Court was disposed to grsnt a rule to show cause why the verdiet should not be set aside, and a new trial granted ; and also it would be open to show that the judgment was irregularly signed for want of a term's notice to the plaintiff. With re spect to the other ground on which the rule was sought, that of causing one of the judges to seal the bill of ex ceptions omitted by the late Lord Chief Justice, the Court was of opinion they had no power to interfere. The rule relating to this point must, therefore be refused. Rule nisi, on the other grounds stated, granted. PARRATT V. E.ING.-THE TUNBRIDGE AND RYE-HARBOUR DIRECT RAILWAY. Mr. WORDSWORTH moved for a rule to show cause why an order made by the Lord Chief Baron in this case, should not be set aside. The order in question, which was made on the 18th of July, was to stay all proceed ings in an action to recover 1,3301., from the Right Honourable William King, for advertisements in serted by the plaintiff, in various newspapers, of the Tunbridge and Rye-Harbour Direct Railway, till a case pending in the Queen's Bench against Lord Beresford for the same sum was decided. He (Mr. Wordsworth) made the application after the decision their Lordships had 'given on Saturday last, which declared that the plaintiff could not proceed for the re covery of their debt against the provisional directors in their joint capacity, but only against them severally. Rule granted. SHAW AND ANOTHER V. CLARRSON.—LONDON, PORTS.. MOUTH, AND CHICHESTER RAILWAY. Mr. Sergeant BYLES moved for a rule nisi for a new trial in this case on the ground of surprise, and that the verdict was against evidence. The cause was tried at the last Middlesex sittings, before Mr. Justice Cresswell, and a verdict given for the plaintiffs for 6301. The plaintiffs are printers and lithographers, and the action was brought to recover for work done for the London, Portsmouth, and Chichester Railway Com pany, of which Mr. Clarkson, a proctor of Doctors' Commons, was a provisional director and chairman. The point at issue was, whether the company or the engineers were the contracting party. Messrs. Drayson, the engineers, were the projectors of the company, and gave the first order to the plaintiffs on the 15th of July last year, whereas the defendant did not join the company till the October following. The Learned Gentleman went at great length through the affidavits to show that the evidence supported the inference that the orders were given by the engineers on their own account, and that the company looked to them and not to the plaintiffs for the work being done. Rule granted. SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Secondary PorrEn.) BARNETB V. NEWTE. This was an action to recover the sum of 1121. 3s. 5d., ;he balance of an account for goods sold and delivered. Mr. WORDSWORTH appeared for the plaintiff, who is a stationer and printer. The defendant is a gentleman, who was one of the provisional directors of the Jamaica Southern and Eastern Railway Company. The claim was for books, printing the prospectuses, allotment let ters, and scrip shares. The original demand against the Company was 192/. 3s. 2d., but the plaintiff admitted the receipt of 801., which he applied to the first part of the account, the defendant not having come into the management in June, 1845, and remained therein till December. He, the Learned Counsel, would call witnesses to prove the active part which the defendant had taken in the affairs of the company, and the fairness of the charges, as it was now the prevailing opinion, both in and out of Court, that the tradesmen were, in such canes, in the habit of making higher charges to railway companies than to ordinary customers, which, however, was not the fact in this case. Mr. Shiers, the secretary to the company, proved that the work charged for had been done, and that defendant was one of the managing committee during the period above specified, and the goods charged for supplied. Mr. Fleming, a printer, and a Mr. Henneky, were called, and proved the value of the goods, and the jury gave a verdict for the amount claimed. BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.) IN RE WILKINS. This bankrupt, who was one of the partners in the firm of Beattie, M‘Naughten, and Co., of Nicholas-lane, Lombard-street, Levant merchants, whose debts and liabilities amounted to about 240,0001., and whose bank ruptcy was attributed to failures in the Levant, came up on his adjourned examination. Mr. James appeared on behalf of the creditors, and Mr. Cooke for the bankrupt. It appeared, in the course of a long examination, that the bankrupt had previously been in partnership in the firm of Wilkins and Preston, and Wilkins and Mongredi, and on the partnership being dissolved it was, he as serted, agreed upon that he should be released from all liabilities, as he had property in China and elsewhere, the proceeds of which would cover all the partner ship demands against him. As far as the transactions with Preston were concerned, the moneys had been received, but in the other he had, after joining the firm of M‘Naughten, renewed his liability to the amount of 4,0001. by a personal engagement. Mr. COWIE urged that the bankrupt had been to Constantinople, and on his return surrendered under the fiat against the firm, and adopted their accounts. He had prepared a statement of his accounts with Preston, and was proceeding with the other, but, not expecting to be called upon for it, he must now ask for time. There could be no doubt that at the time he dissolved partner ship with the other firms he believed himself and them solvent. Although released from claims by them, he was not released against creditors up to that time, but every thing had been or would be paid. The COMMISSIONER said if the bankrupt had been once released, he ought not to have again made himself liable after joining a new firm. Mr • JAMES said such a procee di n g greatly affected the stability of firms. Bankrupt had not a shilling to meet the demand on him. The case was ultimately adjourned for ten days. MARLBRU-STREET—(THIS DAY.) Robert Beddom e an d D av id Rea d , w ere charged with assaulting Andrew St one, l ast n i g ht, a t the bar of tho Crown and Grap es p u bli c -h ouse, Li tt l e Newport-street. Inspector Wh a ll, o f t h e C d i v i s i on , stated that the complainant was una bl e to atten d t hi s m orning in conse quence of the i n j ur i es h e had rece i ve d, a nd banded in a certificate to that effect from Dr. E. Gaudin. Stephen Edwards, master butcher, 21, Little Newport market, said he was sitting with some of his friends at a table in front of the bar of the Crown and Grapes, and the prisoners, who were strangers to him, were drinking at the same ba r , an d seemed the worse for liquor. Some little time after, a French gent l ema n, the complainant, with his wif e an d three young gentlemen in company, came in, and i n th e effort to pass the bar slightly pressed upon the prisoners. Read assailed him with abusive language, and wished to fight him, which the complain ant declined. Read then rushed up and laid hold of complainant by the collar, dragged him along the floor, and struck him with great violence. Feddome instigated Read to continue, who tore the man with his nails, struck him, and kicked him. Mr. HARDWICK remanded the case till Thursday next, and ordered the prisoners to find bail in 20/. each for their appearance to answer the charge en that day. THE LONDON GAZEITE. (THIS EVENING.)

The general half-yearly meeting of the Old British Iron Company was held to-day, at the office% of the Company, at the South Sea House, Threadneedle -street, at two o'clock, Sir G. Larpent, Bart., in the chair. The CHAIRMAN then went through the report, the sub stance of which was that when the call of 11, per share was made in February last the directors, hoped that the amount realised would be sufficient to satisfy all the claims on the company at that time unliquidated, and they were happy to say that those ho pes were fully re alised on the present occasion. —(Hear, hear.) The re were now now no debt s owin g b y the co mpany ; and the members were merely kept together until the calls made could be obtained from those who were at present concern u eer)— an d i t now on l y to law. A SHAREHOLDER inqu ired wh y the letter announcings according defaulters, but wh o y et were able to p a y. During the last six months ther e bad been no ex p en ses whatever in remained c u o in n e d d uc tu t of w ittahe up ornpany--- their u the name of the defaulters had not been sent; round? The CHAIRMAN said that he thought the ;resolution to that effect had been hastily passed at the Last meeting, and on consulting the solicitors of the company, it was conceived advisable not to circulate the Intt ; but an announcement had been forwarded to each ste,areholder, stating that it was ready, and might be seen at the office. There were several sums still to be obtainedy some of them of magnitude, and as the negotiations w , ere almost ripe for conclusion, he believed that it would be be r to say nothing further upon the subject. Mr. Ilrrenrss inquired what was the am ount rev ved since the last meeting? The CHAIRMAN said, that the whole of the money re ceived was 13,1771. 14s. Id. Mr. IlrrcHstis then expressed his satisfaction at the conduct of the directors. A SHAREHOLDER then inquired what w. as the pro- . spect for the future. The CHAIRMAN replied that if the busine; is could be wound up within six months, a speciel general meeting would be called for the purpose, but if they could not succeed in that object they must abide by the ,ir deed of settlement, and bring the business to ; a conclu sion at next usual half-yearly meet ing. Of one thing ho had the satisfaction to • inform the meeting, and that was, that nothing woul 'd for the future be taken out of their pockets, but in all probabi lity something would be returned to them.—(Hc tar.) Thanks were then voted to the directors I tied the chairman especially. The latter returned than: ts, and 0 0 meeting was dissolYed. ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.) HAYNES V. TAYLOR. Mr. TURNER resumed his arguments in this case, which occupied his Lordship the whole morning. VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England took unopposed petitions, short causes, and cause petitions to day, none of which possessed any point worth a special notice. QUEER'S BENCH.----(THIS DAY.) IVIOTIONN FOR NEW TRIALS. The Court gave its decision this morning on the fol lowing cases, in which motions for new trials had been made during the term :—A case involving the question of the jurisdiction of the Barnet magistrates—rule re fused; Gurney v. Gurney—rule granted; Phillipps v. Brodley—rule made absolute, and the verdict reduced to 71.; Gale v. Lewis—rule refused; Sutton v . Maguire— rule discharged. ADMINISTERING THE OATHS OF ALLEGIANCE TO HER MAJESTY'S MINISTERS. Shortly before twelve o'clock Lord John Russell, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord Palmerston, Earl Auck land, Lord Grey and the Right Hon. C. Wood, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, arrived at the Court, and after a short sojourn in the Judges'-room, proceeded into the court, where the oath of allegiance was ad ministered to them by the Clerk of the Court, the Judges, the bar, and the spectators standing. The oath testifying that they would not use the influ ence of their offices to " injure or weaken the Protestant Church as by law established in England, or to disturb the bishops and clergy of the Church in the possession of any rights and privileges to which they are by-law en titled," was next administered to each, commencing with Lord John Russell. _ - The Noble Premier, and, in fact, the whole of the Ministers, appeared in excellent health. At the completion of the ceremony they bowed to the Court, and withdrew. The Court has issued the following notice with respect to the sittings after term:— " The Court will on Monday, the 30th inst., and the five next following days, and on Thursday, the 17th December, hold sittings, and will proceed in disposing of the business in th© crown paper, the special paper, and the new trial, and will give judgment in cases which shall then be pending." The Court was occupied during the remainder of the day with cases which involved no points of public in terest. BAIL COURT,(THIS DAY.) THE QUEEN ON THE PROSECUTION OF THE CORPORATION OF NORWICH AGAINST THE LOWESTOFT RAILWAY COM PANY. Mr. UNTHANK moved for a rule for a certiorari to re move the judgment in this case from the Quarter Ses sions to this Court. The indictment was filed against this railway company for the construction of a bridge over the river Wentsell. The success or failure of the indictment would rest upon the construction of the Lands Clauses Act, and same other railway enactments, passed during the course of thelast session. It was the wish of both parties that the case should lee tried in this Court before a special jury.—Application granted. THE QUEEN V. THE SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. Mr. BIRLIE moved in this case to enlarge a rule which had been obtained by Mr. Martin, for a mandamus, di rected to this company, until next term. The ques tion was one of considerable importance, and the sum at stake was 43,0001. The mandamus called upon the company to go before the Sheriffs to assess the damage done to a certain manufactory. The company main tained that they were not obliged to take any more of the factory and land adjoining than was absolutely ne cessary for their purposes • and the proprietor con tended that, as one part of Le factory buildings being taken would spoil the whole, he was entitled to the full value of-the property in Awpensation. In order to de cide the question many witnesses must be examined and many plans prepared, which it would be utterly im possible to prepare this term ; and the jury could not properly assess without the fullest details of the whole circumstances.—Application granted. EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.) MAWSON V. EARL OF MEXBOROUGIL-MAPISON V. EARL OF 31EXBOROUGH.-NA.WSON V. EARL OF MEXBOROUGH4 The actions brought in these cases were founded upon several money bonds given by the defendant to the plaintiff, for various large sums 'of money advanced to him—the first for the sum of 2,0001, the second for the sum of 1,0001., and the third for a further sum of 1,0801. The whole of the actions were undefended, and verdicts returned for the defendant in each case. The counsel in the case prayed immediate execution, which was accordingly ordered. REYNELL V. LEWIS. The Attorney-General having obtained a rule nisi for a new trial in this case, on the ground of misdirection, Mr. Knowles, Mr. Crampton, and Mr. Willes, appeared to show cause against the rule. The plaintiff was an advertising agent, and sought to recover a sum of money alleged to be due to him for advertisements in connexion with the Central Kent Rail way. The defendant was a provisional committeeman of the railway in question. The alleged misdirection was, that there was no evi dence to go to the jury to bring home liabilities to the defendant; neither was there any evidence to show that he had ever attended a meeting of the provisional com mittee. Mr. KNOWLES now contended that there was ample evidence to go to the jury, and the fact of the defendant having been a member of the provisional committee, made him'a partner in the concern and liable for the expenses incurred until an Act of incorporation was obtained ; and when that Act was obtained, then each member of a provisional committee was to be con- sidered as a partner with the other shareholders. In the preliminary expenses of establishing the scheme the provisional committee was nothing more than a partner ship for the purpose of carrying out a certain object, and each member was to be bound by the decision of the r t O w n el P v A e ß p K er E s — on l s n t the e c n a s o e f o w f ho a m pr w o e v r i e sio fo n r al in c e o n m r: that e o r fa. tain expenses, would their decision bind the would Lord. have majority .r m mi n i i atioerre certain expenses, would their decision bind the minori t B y ? 34 M r r B K: r o on p E A s n — K I z p l p r do he n e n o dt thinkit w o u t l m y effect. Mr. Baron ALDERSON—If such committee should pro ceed to incur these expenses in the manner they always do, namely, leading p eo p le to su p pose that the committee were unanimous upon such a point, in that case the Dli- DOrity would be clearly liable, unless they took the pre caution to let it be known that they dissented from such proceedings. Mr. Baron PARSE—Certainly. In the course of the argument of Mr. Willes Baron ALDERSON wished to know whether it was not the custom of some advertising agents to select those papers for advertising which allowed them the largest amount of profit, without reference to the circulation or quality of the paper ? The ATTORNEY -GENERAL—It was so stated upon the trial ; in the present case, he believed, a large number had been inserted in the defunct Iron Times. Mr. WILLES proceeded with his arguments at some length. The Attorney-General was about to reply, when The CounT intimated that, in consequence of the lateness of the hour, the further hearing of the case had better be postponed till to-morrow. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) On ti;;;;;;;blin g of the Court this morning, Mr. Justice COLTMAN said, that the Court had fixed December the 17th, for the trial at bar,Davis v. Lownes, and the Court, if required, would sit day by day up till Christmas- day. NEWTON AND WIFE V. BOOTLE AND OTHERS. This case was an action for an assault and false im prisonment, tried before the late lamented Lord Chief Justice Tindal, at Guildhall, in February, 1845, under the following circumstances :—When the defendants' case was nearly closed, the jury, under the direction of his Lordship, found a verdict for the plaintiff, against three of the defendants, upon the issue of not guilty ; and a verdict for the four defendants on the plea of jus tification, subject to a bill of exceptions. The present case originated in an action of trespass, brought by two of the defendants against the plaintiffs. They obtained a verdict. A writ of capias ad satisfaciendum was issued for costs, and on that, the assault and impri sonment complained of took place. On the trial, after the close of plaintiffs' case, and before the defendantshad. called their witnesses, the Lord Chief Justice raid he was of opinion that with regard to one of the defendants, 'Geo Norman, be was entitled to a verdict on all th e i ssues ; but with regard to the other three, that they were guilty, but that they were justified under the circumstances of the case. The application he had now to make to the Court was rather of an original nature. It was, that a rule should be granted to show cause why the judgment in the case should not be set aside, on the ground of irregularity ; or why the Justice (companion of the late Lord Chief Justice Tindal) should not affix his seal to the bill of exceptions allowed by the late Lord Chief Justice on the trial, which bill of exceptions bad been sent back to the plaintiffs on the 16th, unsealed ; or why there should not be a new trial, on the ground of mis directionor a rule in any such other form as the C ourtm ; may see fit. Though the trial had taken place so far back as February, 1845, judgment had only been signed on the 14th of the present month, which he sub witted was altogether irregular, -45 the defendants tsad PRICE OF SUGAR.

The sittings of the Supreme Court bad been removed from Kandy to Colombo, on account of the sickness.—The Lancet. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of November 20.) Swum— To-day there were sellers of all inferior and brown descriptions of West India upon further reduced terms, making the fall compared with last Friday Is. per cwt ; nevertheless few buyers were to be met with, and some parcels were pressed for sale, but the better kinds of yellow and grey were wanted, and full rates offered, but few parcels could be obtained. The quantity of all sorts sold to-day was only 160, making the total sales for the week 910 blids and tres. REFINED.—The supply continuing to increase causes the refiners to be free sellers, and they submitted to further re duced rates for all descriptions; the home trade, however, in consequence, have been induced to direct their attention more to Refined Sugar. and a good business has been trans acted. MAußrnus.—This afternoon at public sale 5,703 bags of Mauritius Sugar were offered, and chiefly sold at and after the sale ; good and fine yellow kinds fetched the full value, but inferior and brown sold is per cwt cheaper. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal Sugar offered at public sale amounted to 2,872 bags and 10 casks, and nearly the whole sold. White and strong yellow sorts, of which the chief part consisted, fetched very full rates, but other sorts sold Gd to is lower. COCHINEAL is wanted, and at public sale this afternoon 68 bags of Honduras Silvers and 14 bags of Black were offered, and all sold at stiffer rates, the former low to good at 4s 6d to 5s 3d, and the latter 5s 9d to 5s Ild for ordinary and middling. COCOA.—West India has been more sought after, but holders not being sellers at previous rates operated against business, and 640 bags of Trinidad at auction only in part sold. For Foreign Cocoa the market has a dull appearance, and late rates cannot be obtained. Comm—This afternoon none of any kind was offered at public sale, and privately there was scarcely any demand from exporters or the home trade. The worth of good ordi nary pale Native Ceylon is only 37s to 38s per cwt. FOREIGN.—This afternoon at public sale 17 bxs of Havan nah sold at 44s 6d for brown-228 hhds 5 trcs 2 brls of Cuba Muscovadoe, mid yellow 56s 6d to 47s 6d, low 45s to 465, good brown 445, inferior 42 6d, being rather cheaper ; 48 bxs white Cuba sold at 58s to 58s 6d, one lot inferior 51s, washed 57s 6d, and 74 bxs yellow ditto, good 50s to 52s middling 48s to 49s 6d, being full rates. RlCE.—There has been less desire nianifested to operate in Bengal this week, and there are sellers upon rather lower terms, still only small parcels have changed hands by pri vate contract; 3,170 bags at auction yesterday were all i taken in rather above the value. SPICES.—To-day at public sale 80 bags of Pimento were taken in at 4%d for good ; 161 casks of limed Nutmegs from Madeira were only in part sold at 3s id to 3s 2d for second sort, which is rather lower; two cases of brown Penang, good 3s 7d, and slightly mouldy 3s ; 3 casks Amboyna Cloves withdrawn ; 5 chests Mace were taken in, fine red 3s Bd, and good 3s 4d per lb. SPlRlTS.—lmporters of Jamaica Rum evince firmness, and insist upon fully previous rates for all descriptions; there has been a brisker demand this week,chiefiy mm the home trade. Leeward Island is wanted at 2s 7d to 2s 8d per gallon, proof strength, but few parcels are to be had. There are several buyers of East India, upon previous improved terms, bat the stock in first hands is nearly exhausted. Demerara is in short supply, and being wanted, prices rule firm at 3s 8d to 3s 8d for strong surts. Brandy has met with little attention. INDIGO.—The market has an improving appearance for all descriptions of East India. Bengal has been in good demand for exportation, and the home trade have been purchasers to a fair extent; the rates paid have been equal to those of the last quarterly sale to 2d per lb advance. Of Madras several parcels found purchasers at a rise in the full value of 2d to 3d. Other kinds have been in fair demand at October rates to a small advance. SALTPETRE.—HoIders have refused to submit to any fur ther reductiogAn prices, but the home and export demand at present ialiinited for all qualities, and 1,950 bags of Calcutta at auction were only in part sold at the previous currency.

UNFOUNDED CHARGE AGAINST THE PHYSICIAN OF KING'S COLLEGE HOSPlTAL.—Yesterday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at the Prince's Head, Duke's-court, Bow-street, on the body of Margaret Mailers, aged 60, of No. 11, Broad-court, Long-acre. Robert Mailers, the husband, said, the deceased had been ill for some time past. On the 2d inst. she became an out-patient of King's College Hospital. Being a baker he had to work all night, and on Monday evening, when he left home, the deceased told him he would not' see her alive in the morning. Upon returning home from work he found her dead in bed. She had complained to him of having been kept waiting a long time at the hospital when she went for advice and medicine. Mr. Bainbridge, surgeon, of St. Martin's-lane. said, that he had examined the body, and found death to have been caused by disease of the heart. She bad probably been seized with a fainting., fit, not an uncommon circumstance from such a disease, and no one being near to apply brandy, sal volatile, sir some other restorative, had been unable to rally; R e had examined her medicine, and found it proper for hel complaint. Dr. Guy, physician of King's College Hos. pitai, said, that where there were as many as forty or fifty ont-patients to attend to, the deceased might ha., e been kept waiting a short time, but no longer than wa cessary. The jury expressed themselves satisfied tliat there was no ground for the charges, and returns d a verdict of "Died from fainting, caused by disease of the hearti • THE ROYAL STAGHOUNDS.—The meet on Wed nesday, which took place at Pale Hill, between H. ayes and Hillingdon, was attended by the Earl of Grant rifle, the Hon. Mr. Denman, Captain Seymour, several obi cers of the Ist Life Guards, and a field of upwards of l e e n! hundred. The Highflyer stag, upon beingunew d went away to Gutteridge Wood , through Mr. C !ox's grounds, at Hillingdon, to the Common, thence on t( ) the West Drayton station, where it d o ubled to Caw: ley ; thence crossing the country t o Uxbri d ge, it faced r ight through the town over the Colne into Bucks, awn; y to Long Coppice, and doubling across the Beacons; field road to Denham. The stag again crossed the river, making away in the .direction of Harefield Church, o n to Ruislip, where it was headed back to the villw,te of Harefield, and there taken, after a run of between three and four hours. The Ea rl of Graniille and a largo Add were up at the finish. FIRE AND NARROW EscAPE. — Yesterday morning , at an early hour, a fire happened in the house of Mr. Lewis, Devonshire-street, New North-road, Islington, attended with considerable damage. Some children who were sleeping in bed narrowly escaped. Fortunmtely the inmates had not retired to rest, and by their unified exertions the flames were subdued, but the contents of the room were destroyed. AMSTERDAM, Nov. 17.—According to letters fr Niel, of the 6th of November, her Majesty the Qut and his Royal Highness Prince Alexander, were still in that city. They had removed from the Hotel de Prat aec to the fine villa of M. Aviger, the banker, one of the principal persons of that place. It is not known )Ww long they intend to remill them I THE LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. WARWICK, ()CT. 19.—Yesterday a writ of inquiry was executed before the Sheriff of this county, at the Shire-hall, to assess the damages on judgment by default, in an action brought by Mr. Haywood, attorney of Bir mingham, and Mrs. Haywood, his wife, against the directors of the London and Birmingham Railway Com.. pany, for injuries sustained by the wife, in consequence of the alleged gross negligence, want of skill, and default of the defendants, through their servants. The damages were laid at 5001. Mr. Sergeant Allen was retained by the plaintiffs, and Mr. Macaulay for the defence. Mr. Sergeant ALLEN having opened the case to the , jury, Sylvanus Partridge was sworn—l am a wholesale dealer in London. On the 2d of June, 1845, I happened to be a passenger from Leamington to Birmingham, by the railway, in a first-class carriage. I there met with Mrs. Haywood. We proceeded in safety to the station at Coventry, and while there, after stopping a short time, preparatory to being moved on to the London and Birmingham line, a tremendous concussion took place; a blow came as from behind us. That was oc casioned, as I was informed, by one of the servants, by some carriages being forced against the points. Our carriage bounded into the air. There was a second blow in a few seconds, from the same cause, I presumed, aagsaoiccsctasmioenwediththgereaby the first Haywood was concussion. After violencerstMrs. forcea After that she recovered her seat ; she had time to do that before the second shock, and then her head took an oblique direction, and fell in the direction of one of the wooden arms which separate the seats. In the course of a minute I assisted her. She was in a state of con siderable excitement at first, and in a fainting condition. She was fearfully stunned. When helped out of the carriage I gave her my arm into the waiting-room, and she quite tottered. Her face and forehead appeared to be cut, and the side of her head was covered with blood. The eye on the left side was much injured, and covered with blood. She was bordering on insensibility. She was in a very distressing condition. As we were going over the platform at Coventry there was a considerable number of persons, some of whom exclaimed, " Shame!" " Carelesssness 1" Mr. MACAULAY objected to this line of examination, and the Under-Sheriff ruled that it was irregular. Witness resumed—On the occasion of the collision I saw one of the superintendents of the London and Bir mingham Company. He was on the platform, and as sisted Mrs. Haywood into the room. I don't know his name. He expressed strongly his regret at what had taken place, and said it was sad carelessness or blunder ing, and should be looked to immediately. Mrs. Lord examined—l am the mother of Mrs. Hay. wood. She was married in the year 1840. She is now 31 or 32 years of age. Up to the 2d of June, 1845, my daughter had enjoyed good health ; she was a st rong robust young person. I have been constantly with her since, with the exception of a short absence. lam sorry to say there are effects of the collision to be seen now. She has not the proper sense of seeing from that eye which was injured; she has lost her sense of smell. I perceive—and that is the great grief—that there is a de terioration of the mind; she can't write without feeling exceedingly ill afterwards for the whole day. It is quite out of the question, also, for her to superintend her domestic affairs. It has been necessary to engage another person to take charge of them. She sustained an aliena tion of mental power which exists up to this time. She complains at times of a peculiar pressure on the nose, and then voids blood from the nostrils; that is accompa nied by fainting. Independently of this, she has com plained of general incapacity, arising from pains in the hands and arms, and a pressure on the brain. Since that time I have been obliged to accompany her from place to place, it being advised that she should be carried about. Cross-examined—Mrs. Haywood has been confined since the accident, and suffered very much. She was confined in July last. When I say that her mind is affected, I do not mean to state that she is incapacitated from attending to her household affairs—l mean that she is suffering from both mental and bodily infirmity. She cannot sit down now to write a letter. When she sits down to read or write, it occasions great pain in her head, and she cannot do either.—ls there any ten dency to mental imbecility?—She cannot concentrate her thoughts to write a letter. I do not know that I can give you a better answer than that. After reading a page or two of a book she is obliged to put the volume ' down. Mr. Dickenson Crompton sworn—l am one of the surgeons of the Hospital at Birmingham. [Witness de scribed the injuries sustained by Mrs. Haywood.] She has since been in a very excited state. Is easily alarmed. Complains of great pains and noise in the head, and has difficulty in doing the slightest thing. Is better than she was, but still complains of many of the same symptoms. Mr. Richard Jones sworn—l am a medical practi tioner, residing at Leamington, of many years' standing. I knew Mrs. Haywood before she was married; during her girlhood, in fact. She was a strong and healthy person. I saw her the day before she left Leamington —that would be on the Ist of June; she was then in a good state of health. I consider she is in a nervous excited state now. She yesterday complained to me that her memory was affected; so much so, that in writing a common letter she experienced the greatest difficulty. Her whole nervous system is much dis arranged. It is impossible to say that these symptoms will be permanent; they will wear off in time; some modifications have taken place, and, in all likelihood, still greater modifications may occur. I think this may be done by amusing her mind, under proper treatment, especially as she is unequal to the usual recreations of reading and writing. I believe something in her con stitution has been radically injured, and I think that it is very probable all the symptoms have come on since that period. Mr. MACAULAY, for the company, put in a mass of correspondence, with a view to show that the plaintiff had never made a specific demand upon the directors, or they would have been willing from the outset to make any fair and reasonable compensation. The basis of the defence was the following letter, ad dressed by Mr. Creed to the plaintiff:— " July 28, 1845. " Sir,—Having laid before the directors your letter to me, of the 9th inst., on the subject of the injuries sus tained by your family by the collision which occurred at the Coventry station on the 2d inst., I am directed to confirm officially all that I had stated to you in conver sation, as to the sincere regret of the directors for the sufferings of the passengers who were hurt, and their desire to do all fairly expected from them in their cha racter of trustees for the proprietors. " As respects the servant who had care of the -points, there was much to induce the directors not to visit his offence too heavily. He had served the company from the year 1838, without having once been reported for a failure of his duty, and has always borne a uniformly good character. His conduct on the 2d, although very blameable, was rather the result of an error in judgment than one of negligence, since it was from the belief that be had time to do two things instead of one, which required his whole attention. Weighing all the circum stances of the case, they thought that, to a man in bin station of life, a suspension of ten days, and a further fine of a week's pay, being seventeen days in Ole whole, with a severe censure, was, though a comparatively lenient punishment, as much as the service and cha racter of the individual called upon them to inflict; and 'I am much mistaken in my opinion of your feelings, if you would, under similar eircumstamees, have done more than was necessary for the sake of example, and that you, like the directors, would have felt that it was im portant, for the sake of example, that weight should be attached to previous good conduct as that negligence should be uniformly punished.--;t am, dear Sir, your obedient servant, " RICHARD CREED, Sec.

MANNING THE FLEET. TO THE EDITOR 07 TER TIMES. Sir,—The vital question of providir ig men for the fleet in the event of war deserves the most anxious considera tion of every Englishman, padre'a larly of those who exercise a powerful influence over t!kie public mind. No Government can propose efficient easures until the pub lic is awakened to the perilous deficiency. Hitherto there has been an astonishing apfsthy on the subject, and in the House of Commons any naval question is the signal for a holiday, and great. difficulty is experienced in getting together enough Members to form a House. Yet it is a question that eioes not require any know ledge of seamanship, and Mr. Ward was just as fit to grapple with it while in opposition as s -in g ee S h o e as ar be come Secretary to the Admiralty. g th ey peace no single step has been which all who have aboli tionpo- of impressment—a systen2l thefit pro fited d b y meansi t condemn, e f defence the which eh u r w eofn never in e eb c d a . n again supply y supplied by a The alarming deficiency can ie p h olic e y ur p r e e rs s e eure vere e d s zoinayforb: course o steady an f d yceosnrssistednutrilninge wohf aradually organized, and the safety of the coun t ry esta blished. The evil is too deeply rooted to be remedied iz t a few weeks or by any single m eas u re ; a nd that lea d s me to what is at present almost a fatal obstacle—the cot latitu.. tion of the Admiralty, which is entirely changed l with every Administration; and no new Admiralty t ;an be expected to see with the same eyes as their prede c •essors. Hence is the right arm of the country paralyse r d; and there is scarcely a possibility of a remedy for , e vils so deep-seated as to require, not a single Admire t lty cir cular, but a firm and steady adherence to a vi raise and far-seeing course of policy. I believe the present Admiralty to be compose 61. of ex cellent men, well disposed to give attention to tl els sub ject; but how long will they hold office? and :if they commence a system of the character I tdescri' ee, they full well know that it will be thrown overboard 1 by them successors. Thus is the navy a political shut of ?,cock, bandied backwards and forwards by party; and ' a fatal inconsistency marks the whole conduct of naval a Haim Until the country realises the dangers to which z the is thus exposed, there is little hope of remedy; and it is earnestly to be hoped that the Times will not cet Ise to urge it on the mind of the public.—Yours, Nov. 18, A CAPTAIN, R .N.
