MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The supply of money in the discount market is now daily increasing, and as the number of bills brought forward for negotiation is small, brokers arc more willing to mark at 3-3- per cent. to obtain the best paper. Sixty-five thousand sovereigns, from Egypt, were taken into the Bank yesterday. The parting gold by the West India packet has been sold at 775. 100., and the refinable silver at ss. Op. per oz. In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon there was a slight downward movement in several instances. The National Financial Company (Limited) have issued a circular detailing the terms on which they have incorporated the business of that establishment with the Oriental Commercial Bank (Limited). Messrs. J. Henry .Schrod er an d C o . h ave an nounced that the half -yearly dividends on the bonds of the Four-and-a -Half per Cent. Swedish Govern ment Loan of 1864, due 15th April next, will be paid on and after that day, and that the bonds drawn for repayment must also be presented. Messrs. Baring, Brothers, and Co., have received by this mail, on account of New Grenada dividends, the following remittances :—From the customhouse of Santa Marta £2,009 11s. ld., and from San Jose de Cucuta £695 12s. 7 d.—total, £2,701 3s. Bd. The mail from Guayaquil has brought a remit tance of £832 7s. 3d. on account of the dividends of Ecuador. The lists of applications for shares in the Millwall Freehold Land and Docks Company will be closed on Wednesday next, April 5, at 4 p.m., for London, and at 12 o'clock noon the following day for the country. The share certificates of the General Irrigation and Water Supply Company of France will be ready for issue on Monday next in exchange for the bankers' receipts and letters of allotment. Tenders for £400,000 of New Zealand Govern ment 8 per Cent. Treasury Bills were opened at the Bank of New Zealand yesterday. Applications amounting to nearly £700,000 were received, of which sum £130,000 was above the minimum. The balance could all have been allotted in the room, but the agents for the issue of the loan have decided to receive applications till 12 o'clock on Monday next for the unallotted portion of the second series at and above £1 Bs. per cent. prem., and of the third series at and above £1 16s. per cent. prem. The whole of the first series was taken above the mi nimum. The stoppage has taken place of the large East India firm of Nelson, Tritton and Co., with liabili ties amounting to £900,000, of which, however, the greater portion will be provided for by other parties. Th e h ouse was established eight years ago with a moderate capital, but have since transacted an enormous business in all kinds of East India produce, and have been extensive shippers of rail iron. The firm have sustained large losses from other failures and the heavy fall in produce, but the immediate cause of the stoppage is the suspension the other day of Messrs. Smith, Douglas and Co., on whose estate they are creditors for a large sum. A favourable liquidation is expected, as will be seen from the following circulars issued to the creditors "26, Old Broad-street, London, RC., 31st March, 186'5. " We much regret to inform you that in consequence of continued failures of houses at home and abroad with whom we have been associated, we feel it our duty in the interests of our friends to plaCe our books in the hands of Messrs. Harding, Pullein, Whinney, and Gibbons, who will give their immediate attention to the preparation of a full statement of our affairs for your consideration. "In the meantime we may state that we have every reason to believe that the liquidation of our estate will be favourable to all concerned.—We are, your obedient servants, " KELSON, TRITTON, AND CO." wo O' At Paris, thi s d ay, according Two O'CLOCK. At Paris, this day, according to Mr. CLOCK. Re g. tole telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes were 67f. 40c. An improvement of + per cent has taken place in the English Funds, and a very large business has been transacted. The public appear to be taking Small quantities of stock off the market, and this, coupled with the prospect of a c ont i nuance of ease in discount circles, is exerting a beneficial effect upon values. Consols are 90 for money and the 6th, and 90+ I for the May settlement. The Foreign Market has also presented an active and firmer appearance. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1862, are 741 4 ; do: Consolides, 541 ; Mexican, 26 4, 27 ; ditto New, 24i . 26 ; Greek, 211 ; Spanish Paiasive, 321 s ; do. Certificates, 171; Italian, 64 4 ; do.

Metropolitan and North Eastern (Berwick), have each declined 15s. ; Bristol and Exeter, and Great Northern A Stock, 10s. ; and Lancashire and Yorkshire, Midland, and South Eastern, each ss. ; while Brightonlave improved £l. The Foreign and Colonial lines remain without change of importance. Bank and Miscellaneous Shares, in most instances, sustain former rates.

VICE-PRESIDENT JOHNSON.—Governor Johnson appeared in the Senate yesterday morning. His health is entirely restored. He was as cheerful as any man could be after having recovered from so severe an indisposition.— Washington Chronicle. _ THE LATE M. HACHETTE.—A memoir of the late M. Hachette, founder of the greatest publishing house in France, has just been published. It is an instructive bio graphy of a self-made man ; who was a plain liver and high thinker ; who persevered through poverty, holding fast to the purpose he had set before him. He seems to have been a goodiriend to the better class literature of his country, and to have left a name dear to hosts of friends. M. About hastens to lay a flower upon his grave.—Athenawn. DONATO NOT ON HIS LAST LEG !—Despite an nouncements of Donato's incapacity to appear again on the stage, it seems, from an announcement in the Orchestra, that he is engaged for * the Porte St. Martin Theatre, Paris. PROFESSOR KISS, OF BERLIN, the sculptor of the "Amazon," had, it appears, long been suffering from con gestion of blood to the head, and was found dead in his bed on Friday last week. THE RESULT OF PERSEVERING INDUSTRY.—Last evening a large number of persons met at Mr. Moorton's, the Feathers Tavern, Warren-street, Totten ham-court-road, to witness a distribution for a curious piece of workmanship—a reversable hearthrug of handsome design. The hearthrug is composed of 36,000 pieces of woollen cloth of varied colours, and is the result of patient and persevering industry on the part of Sergeant Lambert, on sick leave from the E division of police, a great portion of the work having been carried on while ho was in hos pital. Mr. Aloorton commenced the proceedings by stating that he was glad to see so many persons had assisted in the matter. Sergeant Lambert had always well performed his duty, and he had no doubt the support the sergeant had received would act as an incentive to other officers. THE CONVICT POTTER.—According to the Derby Reporter, Potter, who was convicted of the murder of his wife at the last Derby assizes, and who was respited during her Majesty's pleasure, has been removed to Broadmoor Lunatic Asylum. " When the commissioners of lunacy visited him (says that journal) ho acted very cleverly, or his mind was overbalanced in consequence of the fear of death. Of course a respite is not a reprieve ; nevertheless, the impression is general that, as in the case of Townley, if he is ultimately pronounced sane, he will not be sent back to Derby to be executed, but will be removed to Pentonville Prison." SPRING. —In Yorkshire the first indication of spring was on Thursday, when March may be said to have made up its mind to " depart like a lamb." The month has been one of constant snow and frost, and in a great measure all agricultural pursuits were suspended. A sudden thaw took place on Tuesday night, and except under hedgerows and, walls on the hills, snow has disappeared. Another dry day or two will enable farmers to get upon the oat lands, of which crop the sowing must bo late. The change must bo of great benefit to the young lambs, among which some loss has been occasioned by the late hard weather. Midges in abundance, and a wasp or two, were seen on Thursday. APOTHECARIEW-lIALL.—The following gentlemen passed their examination in the science and practice of medicine, and received certificates to practise, on Thurs day, March 30 :—John Williams, University College ; H. Wilson South Sturton, Trafalgar-road, Greenwich; Edwin Burrell Westley, Bury St. Edmunds ; Charles Claridge Brewer, City-road. As an Assistant—John Lloyd, George street, Cardiff. ALTERATIONS IN THE SHIPS ROYAL SOVEREIGN AND PRINCE CONSORT.—It appears from a Parlia mentary return that the cost of the alterations and repairs executed on the. Royal Sovereign since her return from her cruise, last autumn, is £3,845. Tho expense of the altera tions executed on the Prince Consort, since her return amount to £7,107 18s. Bd. It seems that the cost of alter ing the Royal Alfred from the ordinary broadside to her present arrangement is £14,912. TEE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 1 , 1.F65 SHARE MARKETS—This day.

He was Deputy Lieutenant for Cornwall and Special Deputy Warden of the Stan narics. He died on the 13th of January last, at the age of 72, having executed his will in 1861, and added four codicils, the last dated Jan. 12, the day preceding his death, to which he made a cross. Pro vision under two marriage settlements is made for his wife, Lady Sawle. His son, the present baronet, who succeeds to the family estates, is also residuary legatee of the personalty. A charge, by way of annuity, is made on the estates in favour of his son Thomas, to whom some estates are bequeathed. There are legacies, contingent and reversionary, to his grandchildren.

Legacies and annuities are left to his brother, nephews, nieces, and their children ; also to his servants. The interest of £2OO is to be given to four poor widows of St. Ives, and the like to four poor wi dows of Fenstanton, Hunts. The Phare de la Soire of to-day says :--,‘ A judi cial inquiry has been instituted at Lorient, by order of the Government, into the conduct of certain persons accused of attempting to disturb the internal and external security of the State by aiding and abetting the armament of the Olindi, now known as the Stonewall Jackson." A grand dinner, to which a number of the depu ties were invited, was given at. the Tuileries last evening. s • The Marquis de Lavalette.,yesterday took posses sion of the Ministry of the Interior, and, according to custom, received all the heads of his department. "It is rumoured," says the Temps, " that M. Boudet, lately elevated. to the dignity of Senator, will be appointed Secretary to the Senate, in the room of Baron de Lacrosse, deceased." The Ministerial journals of Berlin condemn in very strong language the proposition of the Secondary States to the Diet in favour of the Duke of Augustenburg, and call upon that body in very decided, almost menacing, terms to reject it. " COCK AND BACON!"—It is an error to stick to the culinary routine which makes to-day's dinner party the echo of yesterday's, and the second-sighted fore taste of to morrow's. Is there no fish in the sea but turbot? None, besides salmon, in the stream? Are certain roasts and boils alone presentable, all the rest being unwholesome if not poisonous ? It is to avoid this monotonous same ness that men betake themselves, in despair, to sundry sown dining-places, and relish repasts at German tables d'hote. They would accept a Chinese chef de cuisine, and taste hashed dog—though the cookery might be execrable and the hash still worse—for the sake of enjoy ing a little gastronomic variety. It is the samo in other things. • You shall see a man neglect a pleasing andpretty wife to flirt with a stranger, who is coarse, plain, and twice her age. But there is a wide difference between matrimo nial and culinary constancy. The one is a virtue, the other a weakness which may give rise to curious mistakes. A German traveller, well received in London, went a round of dinner-parties. For about the twentieth time he sat down to fowls at top and. ham at bottom. " Mein Gott !" ho exclaimed, cock and bacon again ! There is nothing to be had but cock and bacon." And he forthwith entered in his notebook, " The English live principally on cock and bacon."—From " London Society."

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. EXCESSIVE CRUELTY—THE FULL PENALTY INFLICTED. —Mr. Rene Allaire, dyer to her Majesty, of Conduit-street, Regent-street, and Mortimer-street, Cavendish-square, and Henry Field, a carman in his employ, were charged the former with causing a horse to be cruelly tortured, and the latter with cruelly torturing the same animal. Mr. Love, from the office of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, attended to support the complaint, and called Simeon Sell, officer of the society, who said that on the morning of the 24th ult., in Conduit street, he saw Field in charge of the horse in question, which was attached to a van standing at Mr. Allaire's door. The horse was standing on three legs, holding the fourth up. He afterwards saw Field driving away from the house, the horse limping, and being unable to put the lame foot on the ground, and appearing to be in great agony. Mr. Knox—l saw the horse myself last week, and a more hideous sight I never beheld. It could hardly stand, and was, indeed, unfit to live. I can conceive nothing more horrible than the state the poor creature's hoof was in. What became of the hoise ? The witness stated that the horse was slaughtered. He had the foot taken off, and the whole bf it was in a state of rottenness, and must have been diseased for a length of time, and the horse have endured excruciating pain. Mr. Allah) admitted sending out the horse, but professed ignorance of its being in such a bad state. Mr. Allane said he had no knowledge of horses whatever, and was not aware that the horse was unfit for work. Ho fed his horses well, and could show receipts from his corn chandler to verify his statement. Mr. Knox said he could not admit the plea of ignorance. The case was so palpable that a child might have had sense enough to see that the horse was unfit for work. It was not a question whether or not the horse was fit to be worked. He must say that a case of more hideous cruelty had seldom come before him, and that gross inhumanity had been displayed in sending such a horse out to work, and although the horse had been destroyed, he should mark his sense of Mr. Allaire's conduct by inflicting the full penalty of £5 or two months, and Field would be fined ss. or seven days. The fines were paid. THAMES. A GREAT FALL IN EGGS.—James Smith, a seaman, aged 34, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with being drunk and disorderly, and with wilfully and mali ciously doing spoil, damage, and injury to 1,200 eggs, against the peace of our Sovereign Lady the Queen, her Crown, and dignity. Ann Magner, egg merchant, in Ratcliff-highway, said the prisoner was intoxicated, and throw himself right against the shop window, which gave way and was broken, and all the eggs on the window board rolled out into the street and were destroyed. Mr. Partridge—How many eggs were broken ? Witness—Only 1,200, sir. Mr. Partridge—Only 1,200. Why how many do you keep in your window ? Witness—Sometimes as many thousands. We only had a small quantity. He would have paid me, only he found the number so great. Mr. Partridge—Did he do this on purpose ? Witness—No, sir ; he did not do it purposely. Elijah Long, 380 K, said tho prisoner was very tipsy, and had not yet been paid off from his ship, an homeward bounder. Mr. Partridge said ho would not detain the prisoner for breaking the eggs, as he had not done it wilfully. Mrs. Magner said it was done wilfully. The sailor put his shoulder against the window and smashed it, and away rolled every egg on to the pavement. Mr. Partridge said the witness had most distinctly sworn the breaking of the eggs was not done purposely. Mr. Magner—l quite misunderstood you. Mr. Partridge advised the sailor to pay the woman for her 1,200 eggs, and took his own recognizances to appear this day. On the case being called on the sailor was not in attendance. It was stated that ho had been paid off at a shipping office, but he had not paid for the eggs and the window. Mr. Partridge told Mrs. Magner she had better sue the sailor in the County Court. lie would not adjudicate upon the case, for he was not satisfied with the evidence of wilful damage. WILD SPORTS IN THE EAST.—Catherine Dacey, aged 24, was charged with wounding her mother-in-law with a boot, at No. 2, Crown-court, Rosemary-lane. Mary Carroll, 30, was charged with scalding Bridget Hyde, at No. 10, Slough-alley, High-street, Wapping, and Patrick Granton, a labourer, was charged with beating his wife in Blue Anchor-alley, Whitechapel. The parties are natives of Ireland, and live in Irish colonies where rows, "scrim mages," fights, and bloodshed are frequent. Mrs. Dacey was quarrelling with her husband, and hurled one of his heavy boots, studded with iron heels and large hob nails, at him. The boot missed him and struck his mother on the head. A severe wound was inflicted, and the sufferer was taken to the hospital. Chandles, a police-constable, No. 117 H, produced a medical certificate that the woman in the Hos pital could not be permitted to leave at present, and that the wound was a dangerous one. The prisoner was remanded. Tho evidence against Mrs. Carroll was that while quarrelling with a neighbour she poured some boiling water out of a tea-kettle into a basin and threw it over Mrs. Hyde, scalding her neck and shoulders in a fearful manner. Hughes, 206 H, the police constable who had charge of the case said, that some of the hot water went down the woman's throat. She was in the London Hospital and could not be moved. The prisoner was unmarried. Mrs. Mary Glunton, a most audacious woman, charged her husband with hitting her with his fists and marking her face, and stated he took her shawl and a sheet from a room and made an attempt to burn them. She had not lived with him for.six months, and he " bate and murthered her last summer." The prisoner, whose face was scared, said his wife " fell upon him like a bull-dog, and tore him to atoms." Roche, the gaoler of the court said, the prisoner in a fit of jealousy scard his wife's person with a red-hot poker, some time ago, and their own daughter then proved an act of adultery against her mother. Mr. Partridge said that Glanton and his wife were a very bad couple. He ordered that tho prisoner should enter into his own recognizances to keep the peace towards his wife. WESTMINSTER. THE MATILIMONIAL CAUSES ACT—WOMAN MUST WORK. —A very respectable-looking woman, about 35 years of age, applied to Mr. Selfe for a protection order, under the Divorce and Matrimonial Causes Act. Mr. Selfe having inquired what were the circumstances, Applicant said that she had been parted from her husband for three years, during which time she had no maintenance whatever from him. Mr. Selfe—Did you leave him or he leave you ? Applicant—He left me. He deserted me without caring what became of me. Mr. Selfe—Do you lmow where ho is ? Applicant—l do not. Mr. Selfe—Have you seen him since he left you, as you describe, three years ago ? Applicant—Once only, about two years ago ; but then I saw him in the street, but nothing passed between us. Mr. Belle—How have you supported yourself since your husband left you ? Applicant—l have been supported by my friends. Mr. Selfo—Have you done nothing for your own living ? Applicant—No, my friends, who are very respectable, have kept me. Mr. Selfo—To enable me to grant you an order the property to be protected must have been the fruit of your exertion. In the words of the statute the magistrate has the power to protect any money or property she may acquire by her own lawful industry. At present I have no power to assist you, as you have not acquired anything in the mode described. Applicant—My friends have not put me in any business for fear my husband should come and claim it. They would set me up now, but for that fear. They of course do not like the notion, after his desertion, of establishing me in any business which he may come and claim at any time, and then go away again. Mr. Selfe repeated that at present he could not help her, and she withdrew. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This day.

The New Epidemic in Russia. (REUTER'S EXPRESS.) FLORENCE, March 28. The Nazione of to-day says :—" Our esteemed friend, Doctor Galligo, Director of the Medical Journal L'lmparziale, has consented, at our request, to favour us with the following summary of an article upon the serious epidemic fever now preva lent in Russia, intended to be inserted in his journal upon the Ist of April, next. " We have received from our distinguished friend Dr. Tillner, physician to H.I.H. the Grand Duchess Maria of Russia (who has just arrived from St. Petersburg) some important details respecting the disease now raging in that capital, which has been so much spoken of by the whole of the political press of London. " This malady appears to be neither a fever of an intermittent or continuous nature, nor yet a simple typhoid fever ; but it certainly is very viru lent and dangerous. According to the opinions of the Russian physicians it is the same fever as that which was observed for the first time in Scotland in the year 1819, and denominated in that country the intermittent fever, from the length of the inter missions and the prolonged attacks. This fever is ushered in by cold shivering, alternating with re markable heat (from 40 to 41 degs.. centigrade or 106 degs. Fahrenheit), the pulse beating 130 ; great prostration and disorder are observable in the nervous actions, although the state of the mental faculties remained unaltered, frequent pains are felt in the head and limbs. Great pain is also felt in the left hypochondriac region, and examination of the palpi tation and percussion proves the spleen to have im mensely decreased in volume. The skin is yellow in colour, owing to the liver being likewise affected by the malady. The initiatory attack of the fever lasts from seven to eight days, and terminates with a very copious perspiration. After the first paroxysm an interval occurs of seven or eight days, during which the patient appears almost as well as ever, but at the expiration of that period a second attack manifests itself like the first, but accompanied with still greater prostration. This continues also about seven days, terminating like the other, with profuse perspiration. Sometimes a thirdparoxysm declares itself after a further interval of seven days, one of the symptoms being a burning thirst and complete aneurism, and the patient sinks into the most pro found state of prostration. The rate of mortality is 8 per cent., and the victims of this malady die during the second attack, usually from a kind of general paralysis, or through serious derangement of the nervous organs, with real decomposition of the blood, and an enormous increase in the spleen. The liver becomes greatly enlarged, but the intes tines, on the other hand, are either found healthy or else hardly congested. "Everything has hitherto failed to shorten the duration of the febrile attacks. Salts of quinine, given in large and small doses, have been quite inef fectual to overcome the attacks characteristic of this malady. In the second paroxysm, in which there is increased prostration of the forces, the most powerful stimulants have been administered, such as moss wine, alcohol, ether, camphor, &c., but they produce little or no effect. The chief cause of this disease is supposed to be the arrival in St. Petersburgh of an immensenumber of workmen from the neighbouring provinces, and even from the most distant towns. It is said that there are just now in the capital forty three thousand workmen more than the usual number. The consequence of this is, that they cannot work, and are obliged to live in un healthy localities and to live upon the black bread, which contains this year much more horned rye than in previous years. It has been discovered by chemical analysis that this bread contains one per cent. of horned rye in the flour with which it is made. Thus, every worl;ing man living on the same may be calculated to eat 100 grains of horned rye per diem. Besides this, the oxen, cows, and other animals, being no longer slaughtered in St. Petersburg, but at Moscow, whence the meat is de spatched ready prepared ; the heads, hoofs, feet, and intestines of these animals, which previously formed one of the staple articles of sustenance of the poorer classes on account of their cheapness, are no longer to be had at St. Petersburg, and the poor are now compelled to live almost exclusively upon the above mentioned bread, which contains injurious sub stances partly contributing to produce the disease in question. " The Russian Government has been so impressed with the great mortality, and the vast number of sick which daily increases, that they have nominated a committee which has instituted, and is instituting, the most serious investigations with regard to this strange and fatal malady, which, as aforesaid, is exclusively confined to the poorer classes." ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. REPRESENTATION OF EVESIIAM. The writ for the election of a member for this borough, in the room of the late Sir Henry Wil loughby, was received here on Friday, and pro claimed by the Mayor; and the election is fixed for Wednesday next. There is every reason to believe that Lieut.-Colonel Bourne, the Conservative can didate recently announced in this journal, will be returned without opposition, the liberals wisely de clining to contest the seat. At a meeting of the Liberal party held this week it was decided not to put forward a candidate on the present occasion. Mr. Lange, it is understood, has abandoned any intention of coming forward ; while Colonel Addi son and several of the Whig party from London, and a Mr. Johnes, from Montgomeryshire, have made an appearance in the borough, but on ascer taining the general feeling in favour of Colonel Bourne at once withdrew their pretensions. Lieut.-Col. Bourne not only possesses the united support of the Conservative party, but has the coun tenance and sympathy of the large landed proprie tors of the district, together with all-important, active support of Mr. Rudge, an influential borough magistrate. Several influential members of the Whig party have also accorded their support to Col. Bourne, and there is little doubt that he will be returned without any opposition on the present oc casion. YORK. Yesterday (Friday) afternoon a meeting of the principal Conservative electors of this city was held at Harker's York Hotel (convened by circular), to receive a communication from Colonel Smyth, M.P. who has represented the city for 18 years. W. D. HUSBAND, Esq., chairman of the Conser vative committee, was called to the chair ; and he announced the determination of Colonel Smyth to retire from Parliament at the next election. An address from the gallant colonel was read, expres sive of his thanks for the support which hehad always received, and for the kindness ever evinced to him. The meeting next considered the question as to a successor to Colonel Smyth, and it was unanimously agreed to invite James Lowther, Esq., nephew of Sir J. H. Lowther, Bart., of Swillington Park and Wilton Castle, Yorkshire, to become a candidate for the representation. Mr. Lowther and his respected uncle (who repre sented York from 1835 to 1847) being in the city, a deputation was appointed to wait upon Mr. Lowther, and that gentleman, accompanied by Sir John Lowther, immediately repaired to the meet ing, where he at once accepted the invitation amidst enthusiastic applause. The name of Lowther has long been honoured and esteemed in the old city, and a more popular selection could not have been made. YOUGHAL.-Sir John Arnott has come forward as a candidate for the representation of Youghal at the next election, and has addressed the electors. Mr. M'Kenna has also issued an address. Mr. Hobson makes the third candidate for the seat, and is doubtful whether there will not be a fourth in the person of the present member, Mr. Isaac Butt. MOVEMENT OF THE GUARDS. —Yesterday the second battalion of Coldstream Guards, which have been doing garrison duty at Windsor Castle since the 15th of September last, were relieved by the first battalion of Cold stream Guards, under the command of Colonel Carlton.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day ) SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.) sEropnzin T. BREMBRAGE. This was an action to recover damages for the loss of certain property in defendant's coffeehouse. Mr. Buchanan appeared for the plaintiff, who is a waiter ; Mr. Beard, representing defendant, who is a coffeehouse keeper. Mr. Buchanan said that his client was a waiter, and he had a room at deferlant's house. In this room there was a chest of drawers for the plaintiff's use, and he put his money and a gold chain in a little box, which being locked, was placed in one of the drawers. When he first took the room he used to lock his door and give the key to the land lord, but as the landlord (defendant) said there really was no occasion for his doing so, he left the key in the door when he went out. Upon his return one day he went to his box and found that he could not unlock it, and dis covered afterwards that the lock had been forced. All his money, some £5, and his gold chain had been taken away, and a foreign farthing, which had been lying loose in the drawer put in the box. Under these circumstances plaintiff applied to defendant to make good the loss, and upon a refusal the present action was brought. Mr. Beard took an objection, that this case did not come within the terms of the Innkeepers' Act at all. Mr. Buchanan urged that where a person kept open house fot refreshment and let beds, he became an innkeeper within the meaning of the act, and was liable for property lost in his premises by a guest. Mr. Beard inquired how plaintiff was the guest in this ease. Mr. Buchanan said that he took the room at ss. per week. Mr. Beard—Then that is a mere lodging, and takes the case out of the act at once. His Honour (Mr Kerr)—Yes, that would be so ; Mr. Buchanan, you cannot get over this. Mr. Buchanan—l see it, your Honour, and I will elect to be nonsuited. Plaintiff nonsuited.

The correspondence states the regulations which the Commissioners of Inland Re venue suggest, with a view to prevent (as far as practi cable) damage to the revenue. With relation to other damage, it appears that London brewers express little or no desire for legislation in favour of the proposal, and some of them state that the result will be to lower the standard quality of beer, and increase an existing practice resorted to by unscrupulous dealers, retailers, and exporters, of mixing beer of inferior quality with that made by brewers of established reputation, and selling the mixture as the produce of the best breweries. Messrs. Barclay, Messrs. Hanbury, and Messrs. Whitbread state that they should not avail themselves of the proposed law, as they find that the quality of beer is never so good as when malt only is used. Certain Liverpool sugar refiners reply that the want of visible interest in the subject on the part of the London brewers is no proof that they do not desire the permission and would not avail themselves of it extensively, and that indifference on the part of the brewers ought not to de prive sugar refiners of an outlet for their lowest product. TERRIBLE ACCIDENT FROM A PILE-DRIVING MACHINE.--On Wednesday last an accident oc curred on the South * Yorkshire Extension Railway. A time-keeper, named George Truswell, was writing in a time book on the top of a pile that had been partly driven in to form the dam previous to the erection of a bridge, when the pile-driving machine was put in motion, and the hammer came down, striking his head, which was much c o pi ut,a e n ce d s, then both his hands. The left hand was smashedt and two of the fingers of the right hand were injured very much. Medical assistance was obtained, and it was found necessary afterwards to amputate the left hand. ACCIDENT TO A MAIL TRAIN.—On Thursday morning, about three o'clock, an accident occurred to the Scotch down mail train, which left London at 8.40 on Wednesday evening. After leaving Lancaster, a bank engine followed, and, overtaking the mail train, ran into and completely doubled up the rear vans. The guard and a commercial gentleman were injured, and so great was the shock that the mail was delayed fully two hours. The Nazione of Florence announces the arrival in th t city of the Bishops of Versailles And of Soissons, the former going to Leghorn, and the latter being about to make some stay in the new capital of Italy. A letter from Padua states that, owing to the students having publicly burned the Encyclical, the prelate, Mgr. Panella, resigned his post as rector of the University; but his resignation has not been accepted. A singular accident occurred three days back to the mail diligence which runs between Liege and Arlon. The vehicle had arrived at Bosson, and the horses had been taken out to change, when a storm, which was raging at the time, set it in motion and drove it backwards down the hill which it had just before ascended. The vehicle ran alone for about a hundred yards, and then upset into a ditch at the side of the road. Fortunately, only one passenger, a young man, was inside, and he escaped uninjured. 1805. 3t5 58 711 8;3) 1225 145 27 402 113 132} 88 75i 308 1051 10 431 31 26 185} 185 1( 81 110 938 143 5531 131 181 571 JOS I I all 101 100 1 100 2 100 100 100 100 10► 100 100 100 100 ICO 100 100 100 100 10 100 100 2.1.0 2.14.6 3.4.0 2.7.0 2.13.6 9.10.6 60/ all 1.1.0 7.8:3 8.13 4.18.( 4.3.6 21i 3 321. 3.10.6 2.8.0 7.1.6 10.6.7 i8.1§.91 10.17.61 964 130 i 17! i inii .45i 8 53i 4 79 81 8i 41 9 8 1 61 . 1011 9:11 gli 2 I
