This was a suit instituted by the husband against the wife for a dissolution of marriage. The case was of the ordinary description, and granted a decree nisi with costs. Cerebral Organisation of Kohl.. That Franz Muller spoke truly in denying his guiltiness of murder, whether designed, or actually perpetrated by his hand, may be admitted as likely by persons competent to infer character from cerebral organisation. For Mullees head stands forward boldly from that animalised contour of brain which is now becoming familiar to persons much in contact with the lowest class of convicts. " The type of the criminal head and face," says a late writer in the Times, "is well known in Portland and its neighbour hood." . . So well is this type and its varieties known to duly in formed phrenologists, that any of them with a little skill in drawing could delineate with considerable accuracy the outline of the head of any convict, the details of whose life and crime were well established. In the case of Kohl, who Was executed on the 26th inst. at Chelmsford, for the murder of ruhrhop, there could be no doubt as to the type of his head. By the kindness of the High Sheriff of Essex I was permitted to take a cast of Kohl's head after his execution. The reality almost exceeded what I expected to see. If, as there is now little ground for doubting, the inborn moral and religious sentiments are the functional result of action in the coronal parts, or organs, of the brain, the animal feelings being in like manner connected with the basilar region, then Kohl may be said to have come into existence devoid of a moral nature ; and therefore to have been, what he has proved himself to have been, a born brute. I doubt if in the large number of casts of mur derers' heads in the phrenological collections there be half a dozen of so low and dangerous a type as Kohl's. In addition to the ordinary characteristics of the brute man, Kohl had that one which intensifies every other. He was a voracious eater and an epicure. The day before his execution he asked for an extra allowance of meat and bread, and at his last breakfast he called for new breed. Cceteris paribus, the heavy feeder is ever the more brutal. Kohl's demeanour since his condemnation was an alternation of outbursts of savage rage and lapses into meek and smil ing craftiness. He had to be watched as if he were actu ally that to which his nature so closely approached, a homicidal maniac, or a ferocious wild beast. The very full development of his perceptive organs gave him the intelligence so remarkable in most. of the savage races. He was " quick to learn," but not " wise to know." Of power to trace, prospectively, the concatenation of cause and 'effect he must have been miserably deficient. His forehead was "villainously low." Of coronal, or moral, development his organisation was "below Zero." Reli gious and moral sentiment he must have been almost totally devoid of. When even on the brink of "the jump into the dark," (the fear of which alone restrains many of the savages in this country from murdering), a word of truth did not burst from Kohl's lips. The contrast between the heads of Muller and Kohl must be very interesting to phrenologists. Even to the number of intelligent persons who, from ignorance of the doctrines of phrenology, or in attention to the language of the head (not an easy one to learn) think of.phrenology as if it were a crotchet of a few minds—not a new revelation of an original law of nature, which not to know and obey is to be ever in danger—the crimes, the fates, and the cerebral organisations of these men ought to teach a lesson of at least modesty in judging, and in speaking of, a subject of which all who have not studied it can speak only at random. Of course this observation does not apply to " critics," who have the privilege of knowing all things, not by ex but by in -tuition, and who are " all ready made." Let us not forget, in our detestation of crime, and in the just punishment of crimi nals, that no man chooses his own mental organisation, nor his education. In phrenology man is informed of a whole code of laws, revealed in God's good time, but as yet lamentably ignored and despised, even in quarters where all the divine laws ought to be reverently studied, and from which they should be loudly promulgated. School of Phrenology, 111, Strand, C. DONOVAN. Jan. 27, 1865. The Grievances of the Coalwhippers. Last night an adjourned public meeting of coalwhippers was held at the Phoenix Tavern, Broad-street, Ratcliff cross, for the purpose of receiving a report from the com mittee appointed at a former meeting, to decide upon what steps should be taken to maintain the present price of 9d. per ton per gang, for whipping coals from the colliers in the river or basins to barges or wharves alongside, and to re port to the men. C. C. HOOD, Esq., chairman of the Rateliff Board of Works, was unanimously voted to the chair. In opening the business of the meeting he expressed his hearty sympathy with the coalwhippers in their present emer gency. He had on former occasions of strikes supported the men, because he believed their complaint a just one, and one which imperatively demanded remedy. He enjoined them to be united amongst themselves, and to have faith in each other, and he could assure them that they had the sympathy of all right-minded men. He thought there was every reason to be gratified that the factors had con ceded what the men asked. True, extraordinary pressure had to be resorted to, and they were for the time helpless to resist the men ; but small thanks were due to the factors for an ungracious and compulsory concession. But there was every reason to fear that a reduction to the old price of 7d. would bo attempted by the intro duction of surfeit labour. He sincerely hoped, however, that such would not prove the fact. He had been an ap prentice on the river himself, and could appreciate the diffi culties under which the men laboured. Mr. KENNEDY, a coalwhipper, complained of having been suspended from performing his work, and being summoned to appear before the factors, because his name had appeared upon the bills as hon. secretary to the movement. He ten dered his thanks to the men who had supported him and themselves by refusing to work until he was allowed to resume his duties. He hoped that in the event of a similar circumstance occurring to himself or any other who made himself prominent in that righteous movement the men would act in the same manner. The committee had waited upon several gentlemen since the last meeting, and their success had been such as far exceeded their most sanguine expecta tions. The committee recommended that a society should be formed, and a register of the names of the men kept, the men to take ships by rotation, so as to secure a certain amount of work to every gang. (Hear.) He hoped all the outsiders and basket-men would fall in with that arrange ment—(hear)—and register themselves. (Cheers.) Al luding to the benefits which had accrued to the men by their determined stand, he said that during the last three weeks the advance of 2d. per ton, taking GOO ships, with an average burden of 600 tons each, had distributed £1,500 amongst the men, and as many appeared at that meeting in " pea jackets" and better hats, he took it for granted that they were a little better off than pre viously. (Cheers.) There was a number of gentlemen (amongst whom was their staunch friend, the Rev. Mr, Atherton, the rector) who were anxious to support them, and the committee had received promises from various gentlemen to support the men, and a sum of money in furtherance of that object, amounting in the aggregate to a little over six hundred guineas, had been promised— (cheers)—which it was proposed to invest in the names of trustees, to be appointed by the men themselves, to form the nucleus of a fund, to which they must subscribe, to render the establishment of a society, with rules certified by Mr. Tidd Pratt. The details and rules would be sub mitted at a subsequent meeting. Several other speakers having addressed the meeting, the proceedings closed with the usual compliment to the chairman. Fearful Accident• Last evening a fearful accident occurred at the Catholic Free Schoolrooms, St. Peter's-street, attached to the Church of St. Mary's, Horseferry-road, Westminster. The build ing adjoined the model lodging-houses in St. Peter's street, and was a somewhat ornamental structure. The basement floor was used in part as a playroom for the children after school hours, and the upper floor as the schoolroom. It was about 60 feet long and 30 feet wide. The church to which the school is attached being in debt, those in authority established a lottery to clear it off, and tickets were sold among the congregation and others in the district, entitling the winners to certain prizes. The invitation was as follows :—" A. M. D. C. No. . A grand drawing of prizes in aid of the Church of St. Mary's, Horseferry-road, Westminster, will take place in West minster on Thursday, the 26th of January, 1865." The list of prizes included a handsome ormolu Paris clock, an ivory crucifix, a very handsome cabinet, a handsome tea service, a lady's silver watch, a very handsome missal register, lace (church pattern), a musical snuffbox, a port folio desk, besides many other valuable prizes, including gold brooches, gold rings, writing desks, travelling cases, ladies' workboxes, dolls, statuary, vases, pictures in frames, purses, stereoscopes, photographic albums, &c. The tickets were sold at 6d. each, and were to be had of the Rev. G. Lambert, Rev. W. Cardwell, and Rev. V. Zanetti, 12, Earl-street, Westminster ; also the Rev. P. Gallwey and fathers of Farm-street Church, at 9, Hill street, Berkeley-square. The meeting took place, and at a quarter past 8 the distribution of the prizes had be gun, when suddenly and without any notice whatever a portion of the flooring gave way. • There were at the time nearly 500 persons —men, women, and children—in the schoolroom. Without the slightest warning ono of the beams which crossed from the eastern to the western side gave way, and upwards of 100 persons were thrown down to the floor beneath, amid the frightful screams and ago nising cries of those who were injured. It was at first supposed that a fire had burst out, and to a certain extent such an impression was a fortunate one, for the alarm being given the Fire Brigade men hastened to the spot, foremost among whom was Conductor James Cottrell, of the Escape Brigade. He rendered most invaluable assistance in rescuing men, women, and children from the windows of the building. In their agony and fright they tore down the window sashes, and would have leapt to the ground beneath had they not been restrained by the police. A lark() number of the wounded were conveyed to the West minster Hospital, whore they were at once attended to. Thirty persons remain there, of whom several are not ex pected to survive. Nearly 50 were attended to and enabled to leave, while a groat many were conveyed to the resi dences of their friends without receiving hospital treat men% Among the severely injured, we regret to state that Miss Adelaide Fallen, the matron of the Penitentiary, remains in Westminster Hospital. Up to the time of this report being written no dead bodies had been discovered. LATEST PARTICULARS THIS DAY. This melancholy catastrophe, we regret to state, has not been unattended with fatal consequences. The name of the sufferer to whom the injuries re ceived proved fatal is Miss Adelaide Fallen, the matron of the Milbank Penitentiary, who expired this morning, at half-past 11, in the Westminster Hospital, despite the greatest exertions of the me dical attendants. Another inmate of the institu tion, an aged female, whose name is unknown, lies in such a hopeless state, that Mr. St. Albin Hawkin, the house surgeon, despairs of her recovery. The number, of sufferers at present in Westmin ster Hospital amounts to 26, 16 of whom were ad mitted last night and nine this morning, most of whom, with the exception we have stated, are doing well. Superintendent Gibbs and Inspector Hawkins, with several constables, aided by a body of labourers, have turned over the whole of the ruins ; and although it was strongly reported that at least three bodies were buried beneath, we are happy to say such is not the case, at least nothing has been dis covered after the most minute search. The heap of torn wearing apparel, such as shawls, bonnets, boots, shoes, &c., presents a very melancholy spec tacle, especially as relatives come up to make in quiries respecting many of their friends now from home. Intelligence of the death of Miss Fallen has been forwarded to the coroner, so a full and searching inquiry will be made into the whole of the circum stances connected with the calamity. The following is a list of the persons most severely injured at present lying at the Westminster Hos pital : Mary Ansbury, fractured arm, fractured ribs, and con cussion of the brain; this is a very serious case. A woman whose name is unknown, and who has not yet been identified in any way, has fractured ribs, severe comminuted fracture of the leg, and fractured arm. She has been insensible ever since she was brought into the hospital, and no hopes whatever can be reasonably enter tained of her recovery. Ann Keeley has sustained a compound comminuted fracture on the nasal and maxilliary bones, and severe lacerated wound in the face. This is also a chse which is also hopeless. Eliza Shaw has also a lacerated wound on the forehead, a fracture on the frontal bone and concussion on the brain. The surgeon gives but very little hope of this case. Mary Neil has fractured ribs and lacerated wound on the face. Mary Cooper has comminuted fracture of the clavicle, fractured ribs, and lacerated wound on the forehead. Agnes Magrath, a little girl, hus fractured ribs and frac tured humerus. James Magrath, father of the above-mentioned patient, has fractured scapula, and his foot has sustained severe injuries. Margaret Downing has compound fracture of the arm and concussion of the spine ; this is another' case which it is much to be feared will have a fatal termination. Ellen Shaw, sister of the previously mentioned inmate of the hospital, has severe lacerated wound in the arm and concussion of the spine, injuries which, like those of her sister, have but slight hopes of a favourable result. Bridget Lench has fractured femur and severe contusions of her back and side. Kate Scammerton has fractured clavicle, fractured arm, and severe contusions of the leg and foot. Michael Murphy, fracture at the base of the brain and fractured ribs. Robert Howell, concussion of the spine and other in juries. We are requested to state that subscriptions for the re lief of the more destitute sufferers by this terrible occur rence are being received at the Charing-cross branch of the National Bank. After a perusal of the foregoing account of this very lamentable catastrophe of last evening, our readers will be interested to glance at the following extract, taken from a book which is but just published, the third and concluding volume of Mr. Charles Knight's Autobiography. The passage refers to an incident in one of the provincial theatrical expedi tions undertaken by Mr. Charles Dickens and his amateur company of comedians. Speaking of Sunderland, Mr. Knight says : We had arrived there from Newcastle in the middle of the day, and found that Charles Dickens, who had started early to walk, was busied at the Musical Hall making the necessary arrangements. It had been recently erected ; had never been used; and was in some parts not completely finished. Our manager was a long while absent, but at length he came to the inn, looking jaded and anxious, and, what was very unusual, depressed in spirits. He called me aside and told me that there was a notion amongst some people in the town that the place would fall down. The recollection of the catastrophe in the Brunswick theatre was full upon his mind ; but he had done all that man could do save stopping the performances. He had gone over the building with a surveyor, who had assured him that all was safe. Several of us went with him early to the Hall, examined under his advice all the modes of getting out connected with the stage, and at the same time were urged not to talk about about our fears so that the ladies might be alarmed. The place was crowded. The performances went on, Our manager struggled with his nerves, and kept them under ; but I saw upon him all night the effect of the apprehension. There were at least a thousand people present, and when they huzzaed and stamped their feet till the roof shook again, we turned to each other, and heartily wished the night was over. Between the fear and the excitement of the popular demon§tration, everybody had a racking head• ache. PLANE V. PLANE. This was a suit instituted against the husband by the wife for dissolution of marriage on the ground of cruelty, desertion, and adultery. The parties resided at King's Lynn, the respondent being a horsedealer. The petitioner was much younger than the respondent, the marriage having taken place when she was but eighteen. Tho petitioner, in her evidence to prove the cruelty, said her husband had on many occasions struck and otherwise grosgly ill-treated her. _ . While the evidence to prove the adultery was being offered, the respondent, who was standing in the body of the court, loudly admitted the fact, and was about to enter into particulars, when The Judge Ordinary ordered him to be silent, adding that assertions went for nothing, as the fact must be sub stantiated by evidence. _ _ The case then proceeded, and it was at one stage thought that there was collusion, but the petitioner distinctly denied it. The mother of the petitioner said her daughter had told her that her husband had forced her, at the peril of her life, to sign a paper admitting that before marriage .she had led an improper life. The Judge Ordinary granted a decree nisi. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE JAMES HALL. This bankrupt was described as a builder of Kensington, and to day he came up on the order of discharge. The ac counts, which are said to be of a very voluminous charac ter, have not yet been filed, but the debts are stated at a heavy sum, creditors being secured to some extent by mortgages. Mr. Lawrence, on behalf of the assignees, said he must apply for an adjournment, as the accounts were not yet completed. This had arisen through no default of the bankrupt, but entirely in consequence of the complicated character of the business transactions. Mr. Boydell stated that he appeared for a large creditor, and asked for the particulars of a settlement made by the bankrupt upon Patience Julia Hood, of Brompton, in No vember, 1863. Mr. Lawrence replied that this matter had been before the Court on a previous occasion, but the assignees would endeavour to accommodate Mr. Boydell before the next meeting. His Honour then ordered a further adjournment. IN RE FREDERICK SMITH. This bankrupt was described as a commission merchant of Fenchurch-street, and to-day he came up for his order of discharge. The accounts showed debts £39,751 against assets £9,930, thus leaving a deficiency of about £29,800. Mr. Lawrence, for the assignees, did not oppose, and stated that the bankrupt had suffered severely by losses in trade. His Honour (to bankrupt)--What capital did you start with ? Bankrupt—£l,ooo. I account for the large deficiency through the failure of several firms with whom I had done business. There are liabilities on bills which should have been paid by other parties. All the bills were trade bills, some of them being for goods assigned t o me. 'His Honour remarked upon the large amount of the de ficiency ; but, in the absence of opposition, granted the order of discharge. In some other large cases adjournments for accounts were ordered. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A DRUNKEN CABMAN—COMMITTAL WITHOUT A FINE. — Joseph Newman, a cabman, _badge 12,555, was charged before Mr. Knox with being drunk during his employ and making use of filthy language. From the evidence of Grigsby, 66 G, it appeared that on the previous night, about 11 o'clock, he saw the defendant, who was seated on the box of a cab, drive his horse on the pavement near the Princess's Theatre, Oxford-street. Two ladies who were in the cab then got out, and Grigsby ob serving that the defendant was very drunk, got the assist ance of another constable, and put the defendant into his cab and took him to the station, he all the way making use of very filthy language. The defendant said he was not drunk, and that it was through an accident to the reins that his horse got on the pavement. Mr. Knox, having examined the defendant's license, said he found that the defendant had been fined three times for drunkenness, the last time 205., and that about a fortnight ago. He would not now give the defendant the option of paying a fine, but would commit him for a month, and endorse that upon his license. He considered the defendant a totally unfit man to drive a cab. PROPER OBJECTS FOR A REFORMATORY.—TWO boys, named John Beacham and James Maloney, both wretchedly clad, and one without shoes, were charged before Mr. Knox with begging in Old Bond-street. Philip Shrives, 82 C, a plain clothes constable, proved seeing the two boys in Old Bond-street yesterday afternoon begging, and on some money being given them he took them into custody. Beacham expressed a wish to be sent to a school. Mr. Knox said he would remand the boys for a week, that inquiries might be made as to their parents, and to consider whether they could not be sent to a school. THAMES. DARING ROBBERY OF TEA IN A WAREHOUSE. — John Holby, a young man, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with stealing a chest of tea in a warehouse of the Midland Counties Railway Company in Rosemary-lane, Whitechapel. Thomas Moorcroft, a watchman, said that last night at fifteen minutes past 11 he was going his rounds in the Midland Company's warehouses, of which he had charge, and found the prisoner in a shed concealed among some bags on which he was lying. The prisoner affected to be fast asleep. He laid hold of the prisoner's legs, pulled him out of his hiding place, and asked him what he was doing there. The prisoner made no answer. He told him to get up, on which the prisoner said, " Oh, dear, Mr. Moorcroft, let me go," to which he replied, "No ; if you was my own father, in the position in which I have found you." He then called Mr. Harrison, one of the clerks,who asked in the prisoner's hearing what he had been doing. The prisoner replied, " I have been doing nothing." There was an overcoat belonging to the prisoner lying close to where he was found. Every pocket was filled with tea. The pockets of the coat which the prisoner had on were also full of tea. Tho whole of the tea was taken out of a caddy in the shed. The caddy was broken open. . . . . John Oldfield, porter, received the caddy of tea out of a van. It was then perfect. He knew the prisoner, who was formerly in the company's employ and dismissed three weeks ago. The prisoner had no business on the com pany's premises last night. Alfred Friend, clerk, in the service of the Midland Rail way Company, said the caddy of tea, weighing 321b5., had been broken open and emptied of its contents. There was about 171 b. of tea found in a bag at the head of the warehouse. It was tea of the same quality as that in the chest. Edward Bilson, a police-constable, who received the prisoner in custody, gave corroborative evidence, and The prisoner, who offered no defence, was remanded for a week. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE IN A HOT BATH.—Thomas Wood cock, aged 28, and described as a grocer's assistant, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with attempting to commit self-destruction in a hot bath in the public baths and washhouses, East India Dock-road, Poplar. John Matthews, an attendant at the Poplar Baths, said the prisoner paid for and went into a warm bath last night, and that he soon afterwards heard a gurgling noise. He went into the bath-room and found the prisoner with his head under water, and had some difficulty in saving him. The prisoner said he intended to suffocate himself, and would do it. The prisoner, who appeared very ill and desponding, said he had a very bad wife, who was constantly inebriated; she came to the house where he had a situation, made a disturbance, and caused his master to discharge him. He had offered his wife a separate maintenance to keep away from him, but she would not accept those conditions. Mr. Partridge directed that inquiries should be made about the prisoner, and remanded him until to-morrow. A FRUGAL MINISTER.—The following amusing story is told in a Paris letter :--It is the imperial custom to send occasionally to members of the Corps Dip lomatique the key of the imperial box at the Grand Opera. This is usually done soon after the arrival of a new mini ster. There is an embassy here in which great changes have recently taken place, and a "pro tem." ambassador reigns. Last week he received the key. Perhaps he looked at the bill and did not like the performance ; perhaps he was engaged ; at any rate, he did not go ; but being, like the late Mrs. Gilpin, "of a frugal mind," he liked nothing to be wasted, so he sent his servants ! Imagine the astonishment when the house turned its glasses to see who was coming into the box ! Picture to yourself the wonder of the housekeeper when, leaving the arm of the butler, she advanced into that red velvet bower ! I wonder what they thought of the gilded bees stuck all around them, and how they enjoyed the performance.. - Report says that, however much the recipients may have been delighted, the donors were not pleased, and it is believed that next time his Excellency the Minister goes to the opera ho will have to pay." The Imperial Court of Paris has just reversed the judgment of the Civil Tribunal of Versailles on a demand for judicial separation by Mrs. Trelawny, better known by the name of Countess de Beauregard, against her husband, and has accordingly pronounced the separation, SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This day.

THE CANONRY AT WINCHESTER.—It is stated in the Churchman yesterday, on authority, that the canonry of Winchester Cathedral, recently vacant by the death of Archdeacon Hoare, will not be filled up. STATE OF TRADE.—BRADFORD, Jan. 26.—Though money is now very easy, yet no demand for wool is the result of the improvement. The most scanty busi ness has been done to-day in wools. There was rather more inquiry for hogs, but the offers were generally too low to be accepted. Prices were rather unsteady. Wool might be bought on terms a shade easier than a fortnight ago. In worsted yarns the continental trade continued very depressed. There was scarcely any de mand. Stocks are accumulating, and spinners are said to be generally stopping frames. The home trade was still quiet. There was some activity in certain sorts, chiefly in twofolds and 40's. Prices were very irregular. The piece trade was inanimate, although some thought there was a trifle more business done. The manufacturers of mohair lenos, white warp Orleans, and camlets continue well occu pied with orders previously received. In other respects there was no change. The home houses, who ordered pretty freely in November and December, and are now re ceiving the goods so ordered, are now giving out small orders for the purpose of assorting. There was no demand for plain goods. The American houses are inactive. The tendency of prices is to soften. A WATERLOO SOLDIER.—There was interred at the Cemetery, Brompton, on the the 26th inst., Maj tor hJeamre es Reginald Graham, late of the Sc ots Greys, and on . f tired list. This officer was ne arl y the last remaining o those who served in that disti n g uished corps on the 18th of June, 1815, and was one of the last in the field on that me morable evening. IT LES. 02i gli 81 2i 92 i MARKETS—This Day. MARK LANE. The supply of English wheat on sale here to-day was very moderate. The attendance of business was small, and the trade both for red and white qualities ruled in active. Selected qualities, however, were firm in price, and in the value of inferior produce no change took place compared with Monday. With foreign wheat the market was but moderately supplied. Nearly all descriptions were in slow request, but prices ruled stationary. Good and prime old foreign wheats were decidedly firm. Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at late currencies. The supply of good and fine malting barley was small, and the demand for such qualities ruled firm, at extreme rates. Inferior barley was a dull inquiry, at about stationary prices. Malt changed hands to a moderate extent, at late rates. There was a good supply of oats on sale. Sweet corn was in fair average request, at full currencies, but heated and inferior parcels sold heavily, at about stationary prices. Both beans and peas met a slow sale, at late rates. Flour changed hands to a fair average extent, and prices were steadily supported. ARRIVALS THIS IVEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour. English and Scotch.- 920 3,860 4 , 360 6 , 520 1 , 190 _..

REPRESENTATION OF CORK AND TRALEE.-DUB LIN, Jan. 26.—At a meeting, to-day of the Cork Liberal Franchise Association, a letter was read from Dr. Lyons, M.P. for that city, announcing his intention of resigning on the opening of the session. Mr. M'Kenna, a director of the National Bank, starts forTraleo in the Ultramontane interest. An interesting discovery has just been made in a ;umulus at Ekaterinoslaw, in Russia. It consists of a trea- sure which formerly belonged to a chief of the Huns. Among the different articles is a heavy gold diadem, in which is set a cameo of amethyst of ancient Roman workmanship, also a large collar, bracelets, and drinking cups, with handles formed by animals, the whole of which are in gold of remarkable workmanship. The Marseilles journals complain that the wea ther continues, as for nearly two months past, almost in• cessantly wet, and far too mild for the season. In several other parts of the South the state of the atmosphere is nearly the same. The snow which fell at Lyons some days back has been succeeded by heavy rains, accompanied by a south wind and high temperature. The Rhone has risen considerably within the last two days. FATAL DUEL.—The Moniteur de la Meurthe an nounces that M. Pompuzan, 34 years of age, veterinary sur geon of. the 2d Dragoons at Toul, has been killed in a duel by an officer of the same regiment. The weapon used was the sword. The seconds declare that everything was con- ducted in the fairest manner. Directly M. Pompuzan fell he was carried to the hospital, but he was dead before he arrived there. THE PERUVIAN EXPEDITION.—The Union and America Peruvian war corvette remain in Plymouth Sound, fitting out. Strenuous exertions are being made by the leaders of the expedition to get the vessels effec tively manned. On Tuesday 16, and on Wednesday 43 men were shipped. The majority of these men are pro cured from London. The crew that have been previ ously shipped, it appears, have, however, been much dissatisfied with their treatment on board. Mutinous feelings have been exhibited, within the last few days, and on Wednesday morning over 20 of the men formerly shipped left and came ashore, refusing to continue in the service.- The Madrid journals state that the Spanish iron clad frigate Numancia, which has been getting ready for sea at Cadiz, and was to leave that port for Callao on the 26th inst., to take part in the attack on the sea defences of that place, has received counter orders, and will not leave Spain. This decision is attributed to the last news received from the Chincha Islands, according to which a settlement of the Hispano-Peruvian difference appeared probable. The half-yearly meeting of shareholders of the Scottish Australian Investment Company was held to-day, and a dividend recommended at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum. During the last few days rather less activity has prevailed in the .Markets for Foreign and Colo nial Produce. Sugars have barely sustained previous rates, and coffee has been less inquired for. Rice in some instances has been sold at slightly reduced rates, while in tallow the opera tions have been confined to a few speculative trans actions for forward delivery, at about previous quotations. The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders of the Oriental Financial Corporation was held to-day. The report presented for adoption stated that the gross profits from the commencement of the business in April last have amounted to £21,762 13s. 2d., which, after deducting expenses of management, rebate of interest on bills, and all other charges, and carrying 10 per cent. to the credit of prelimi nary expenses and office furniture, l eav es abalatneeree of £16,975 18s. 11d. Out of th is sum the did have appropriated £70 6 3 s. to the paymentreeofa interim interest to 30 th June last, per cent. per annum, and £3,298 2 dend to 31st December , 1864, at t h e rate of 8 pe r h cent. per annum, leavi n g at. t B h d e . fo b rdi e f 8 v i to be carried forwar d to tthee r sitoeuxal o f £12,9 71 3 s. 3 d. -tdaayeco°fulte.

Th e di rec t ors recommended that out of this sum, £384 3s. 2d., b e i n g at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, should be written off preliminary expenses ; that £2,029 18s. should be appropriated to the payment of a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, free of income tax, upon the paid-up capital of the 1 company.

Her finery, jewellery, and ornaments can be shown only to those of her own sex ; and in every way her seclusion is as complete as that of the Turkish women. On the other hand, the Armenian women seldom do any hard work; they remain at h6tne while theirhusband labour in the fields, and they enjoy, probably on accoun t of their acquaintance prior to marriage, much respect and confidence from their husbands than falls to the share of the Turkish wife, who, moreover, has to divide with two or three rivals the little affection or re spect which her husband deigns to bestow on her. As the Armenian woman can only talk in her own house below ' her breath, that none of her male relatives may hear what she says, it follows that the consequence which usually re s sults from the residence of so many women in one house, incessant quarrelling, is quite avoided.--470ner'S JOUribed from London to Persepolis. 100 100 2 100 100 100 100 10) 100 100 100 100 10 100 100 100 i ~..
