descrying traces of unmuddled harmony in a part-song O ne day, he gave his two under-cellarmen faint hopes of gettin g on towards something in course of time. An anthem of llandel's led to further encouragement from him: though he objected that that great musician must have been down in some of them foreign cellars pretty much, for to go and say the same thing so many times over which, took it in any way you might, he considered a certain sign of your having took it in somehow. On a third occasion, the public appearance of Mr. Jarvis with a flute, and of an odd man with a violin, and the perform ance of a duet by the two, did so astonish him that, solely o f. his own impulse and motion, he became inspired With the words, "Ann Boar!" repeatedly pronouncing them as if calling in a familiar manner for some lady who had distinguished herself in the orchestra. But this was his final testimony to the merits of his mates, for, the in strumental dust being performed at the first Wednesday concert, and being presently followed by the voice of Mar guerite Obenreizer, he sat with his mouth wide open, en tranced, until she had finished ; when, rising in his place With much solemnity, and prefacing what he was about to s ay with a bow that specially included Mr. Wilding in it, he delivered himself of the gratifying sentiment : " Arter that, ye may all on ye get to bed !" And ever afterwards declined to render homage in any other words to tho musi cal Powers of the family. Thus began a separate personal acquaintance between Marguerite Obenreizer and Joey Ladle. She laughed so heartily at his compliment, and yet was so abashed by it, that J oey made bold to say to her, after the concert was O ver, he hoped he wasn't so muddled in his head as to have too k a liberty?

I)ll ring a fresh gale from the N., with heavy Squalls last night (states the Rev. R. Tyacke), the chie f Officer of coast guard discovered a vessel strande d on the Doom bar. He gave the intelli ree to the coxswain of the Albert Edward life oat of the National Lifeboat Institution.

Ultimately, however, t w as effected, an d th e crew o f three men were bee n and brought safely ashore, the boat having abs ent two hours and a half.

Thc:re has been rather more inquiry for accommo dation in the general discount market as usual at this period of the year, ,when preparations are in progress for the settlement of the twelvemonths' account.. The liquidation of the account in Foreign Stocks and Railway Shares has also commenced, and wi:►l, no doubt, cause a greater demand for money. The rates current being nearly equal to the Bank minimum, although there have been ex ceptional transactions at 18 per cent. The shares of the Anglo-Argentine Company were to-day quoted at 1, to premium. With regard to financial matters, an important calculation has been made with respect to the specie held by 24 of the principal establishments in Europe, including the Banks of France, England, Prussia, Austria, Spain, &c., and 24 local Prussian banks, amounted at the close of October to £104,414,439, as compared with £108,304,039 at the close of September. The securities held by these establishments at the close of October amounted to £109,133,003, against £106,829,080 at the close of September. The loans made at the close of October were £86,946,423, against £86,900,362 at the close of September. The note circulation was £181,716,501 at the close of October, against £177,297,821 at the close of September. The deposits were £117,736,890 at the close of October, against £121,588,312 at the close of September. A dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. is proposed by the directors of the Ceylon Company (Limited). The report to be presented on the 17th instant shows an available balance of £13,773, which, after, payment of above dividend, will leave a balance of £4,398 to be carried foe: ward. The liquidators of the Royal Bank of Liverpool have made a call of .1;10 per share on the ordinary and of £lOO per share on the preference shareholders. The latter, however, propose resisting the payment of the call. The annual report of the Crystal Palace Com pany, issued preparatory to the meeting to be held on the 18th instant, states that the result of the year's working for the twelve months ending 31st October last, shows a balance to the credit of £11,588, which, added to the sum of £3,272 carried over last year, gives a total of £47,860. After pay ment of the dividends on the debenture and pre ference stocks there is a net sum of £15,956. Out of this amount the directors propose a dividend of 1i per cent. on the ordinary stock, leaving £916 to to be carried forward. At the meeting held to-day of the African Steam Ship Company the report for the six months ending 31st of October last was presented. The accounts showed that after providing for the usual deprecia tion and all current expenses, and forming a fund to meet the cost of the ships contracted for, a balance of £6,728 13s. sd. remains. Out of this balance the directors proposed the payment of the usual dividend of Bs. per share, for the half-year ending 31st October. From the sum remaining the direc tors, after full consideration, recommend an addi tional payment to be made of 2s. per share, leaving £1,224 13s. sd. to be carried forward to next half year's accounts. While making this recommenda tion, the directors desire to point out that although the last half-year's operations have enabled them to recommend this additional payment, its continuance must of course depend on the result of the future operations of the company. At a meeting held to-day of the St. John Del Rey Mining Company the report of the directors was presented and adopted. It stated that the directors had the satisfaction of recommending a dividend at the rate of £4 5s per share, free of income tax, and they will carry, as usual, 10 per cent. thereon to the reserved fund. After making these payments there will remain to be carried for ward to the next half-year £3,009 13s 10d, out of which the income tax on last year's profits at 5d (£2,281 9s 10d) has to be paid. The cash in England on the 30th November amounted to £85,576 15s 3d, out of which the sum of £81,425 has to he paid far drafts running and dividends. in Brazil the cash amounted on the 30th of September to £14,788 7s 3d to meet the expenditure of the two following months. Messrs. Alex. Collie and Co.'s weekly circular with respect to the Manchester markets states as follows :—" Immediately after the issue of our last week's circular a visible improvement took place here in sympathy with a recovery ixt price and large transactions in cotton in Liverpool. Although a fair amount of business continued to be transacted up to yesterday in some classes of shirtings the in quiry has. not been general, and in consequence prices and demand have again relapsed to a par with those of this day week." The Lincolnshire is announced to have sailed from Melbourne with £336,000, and the Kent with £130,000. The tenders for £140,500 of South Australian Government Six per Cent. Bonds were opened yes terday. The number of tenders was 120, amount ing to £765,700, at prices varying from £92 103. to £lOB. There was an amount of 185,700 below the minimum and £680,000 above the minimum, which was declared to be £lO5. The tenders at and above £lO7 3s. will alone receive allotments. The tenders for the £500,000 6 per Cent. Bonds of the Metropolitan District Railway on the 20th inst. are to be at or above par, which is fixed as the minimum. The share capital over which these are to ride is £2,250,000. It is reported, in connexion with the examination of the luggage of passengers from the Continent at Charing-cross Station, that some of the Custom house officials are endeavouring to induce the Board of Commissioners to return to the old system of having one piece in every lot examined, instead of, as now, only one or two pieces in every 10 or 20 lots. The present method saves time, and is an accommodation to the public. It is believed also to work extremely well. Hence, unless the Board are prepared to justify the proposed backward step as a matter of imperative necessity, it is likely to be met by a general protest from all the travelling and commercial classes. The report of the Ceylon Company (Limited) to be presented on the 17th of December, shows an available balance of £13,773, and proposes an in terim dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, which will absorb £9,375, and leave £.4,398 un appropriated. Two O'CLOCK. According to Reuter's telegram this morning the French Rentes were 69f. 45c. More firmness is apparent in the English Stock Market to-day, a recovery of 1 per cent. having taken place. Business, however, is dull, both as regards investments and speculation. Slightly higher prices from the Paris Bourse have added to the firmness of the market. Consols are now 92/1 for transfer ; and 921 93 for the account. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 921 I ; Bank Stock, 244 32 ; India 5 per Cents., 1128 ; ditto 4 per Cents., 1001 ; Enfaced 5 per Cents., 104 ; ditto 51- per Cents., 1091 ; and ditto Bonds 53 prem. In the Foreign Market the settlement of the account is the principal business going forward The rates of " coltinuatioa" are easy, owing to the abundance of money and the character of the en gagements that have been contracted. Compared with the prices current yesterday afternoon, Greek are 1 per cent. lower, at 12; 13 ; Turkish 5 per Cents. 1-16, at 33 7-16 9-16 ; and Spanish 3 per Cents. 1-16, at 351 a ; on the other hand, however, Mexican have advanced I f, to 151 ; Spanish Pas sive remain at 258 1; and Italian, 45/ k.

THE SIIORTIIANI) WRITERS' ASSOCIATIO.N.—On Monday evening last Mr. Seni or delivered a lecture at the meeting of this society, bell at Dick's CAfoo-house, Pleat street, taking for his subj-ct " The Reporters' Gallery." With but a brief sketch of the labour that is performed in the gallery, the greater part of his address was descrip= tive of the general duties undertaken by reporters on the metropolitan and provincial press, and was illustrated by many anecdotes gathered during fifteen years' professional experience. Mr. Woods occupied the chair, and seconded the vote of thanks to the lecturer which had been moved by Mr. Pearson. THE.

THE SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANT. This was a writ of inquiry sent down from the Court of Common Pleas, in which the jury were called upon to assess the damages laid at £2,000 suffered by the plaintiff through an accident on the defendants' line, defendants having buffered judg ment to go by default. Mr. Digby Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. Clarke ap peared far the plaintiff ; Mr. O'Malley t►»d Mr. Alama representing the company. Mr. Seymour, in cpening the case to , the jury, said that the plaintiff was a clerk in the emp:oy ment of the well-known engineers, Messrs. _Penn & Co., of Greenwich, and the accident through which he had suffered the injuries complained of took place as far back as Sept., 186 G. It might be no cessary to explain to the jury that the great delay that had ensued before thci action was brought was caused by the desire of the plaintiff and his friends to see bow far he was likely to recover from the effects of the accident. The accident occurred on the 4th Sept., 1865, and upon that occasion he left London by the quarter past nine o'clock train to proceed- to Greenwich. While he was being con veyed along the line, an engine coming in an oppo -site direction, ran into the train, and knocked the carriage in which the plaintiff was travelling off the line. The plaintiff had been most severely injured, and was now unable to perform his duties in his ac customed way. Medical evidence would be called he (Mr. Seymour) understood on both sides, for the plaintiff had been seen by doctors of eminence, both on his own account and on behalf of the company. There could be no doubt that the plaintiff had suffered a severe shock to his nervous system, and was unable to perform his duties with that case and regularity that had been usual with him. One of his eyes was much injured, and there can be no d'aibt that he had been generally permanently shaken in his system. Under these circumstances it would be for the jury to say to what damages the plaintiff was entitled. . The plaintiff was called and detailed the nature of the accident and its effects upon himself. lie was under examination when this report left, and the easels likely to last some time. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day, MARLBORO UGH-STREE F. CLEVER FRUSTRATION OF A PICKPOCKET,-- Joseph Harris, a costermonger, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a pocket-handkerchief from the person of Mr. W. Brock, of 12, Clarence chambers, Haymarket, secretary to the Scottish Reformation Society. The prosecutor was passing along the Haymarket yesterday afternoon when he felt a tug at his coat pocket, and on turning round saw a portion of his pocket-handkerchief in the prisoner's band, the prisoner not being able to withdraw the whole of it, the prosecutor, in consequence of having bee:! robbe.l of his handkerchief at the same pine on Saturday last, having taken the precaution to sow the corner of it to the lining of his coat pocket. The prosecutor secured the prisoner, and handed him over to Police-constable Lloyd, 151 C. Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for three months, with hard labour. ROBBERY FROM A CAB—Thomas Johnson, de scribing himself as a billiard marker, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a railway rug and a parcel of books, the property of Mr. Banks, of No. 60, Regent's-park-road, from a cab in Regent street. John Wright, of No. 63, New Compton-street, said that on the previous evening he saw the pri soner go up to a cab in Regent-street, and take out a parcel and a railway rug, and walk away with them. Tie told the cabman, who went after the pri soner and brought him back. George Arber, cab-driver, badge 7,797, laid that on being told by the witness that the prisoner had taken away a rug and parcel which had been left in his cab, he went after the prisoner and brought him back—the prisoner having got rid of the property— and gave him into custody. Richard Kent, 191 C, proved receiving the pri soner in custody from the last witness, and said the parcel and rug were picked up in a doorway, where the prisoner had thrown them. The prisoner said that he had no occasion to steal a rug as he had plenty of money, but only 11d. was found on him. There being every reason to believe that the prisoner has been previously convicted, Mr. Tyr whitt remanded him for further inquiries. 1 I i p .,,,.,. Closing hare, Railways. 1 ''"'"' l l'ric - .

Another man is in custody for participating in the crime. Emma Brown stated that she was in the par lour of her shop on Thursday evening.b.st between the hours of 5 and 6 o'clock, and hearing a noise in the shop she entered it and saw the prisoner, who vial; close to the door and about to leave, when she asked him what he wanted. He replied that he wanted a drink of water. She refused to give him any, and he ran out of the shop. A boy came into the shop directly afterwards, and in consequence of a communication from him, she looked over the window board and missed four watches and 10 brooches. Another man was in the shop with the prisoner. Mr. Benson--What is the value of the property stolen ? Witness—£7, sir. I saw the watches - and brooches a few minutes before the prisoner was there. The Prisoner--Was there any light in the shop? Witness—Yes ; four gas burners were lighted. The Prisoner—Did any one else see me in your shop ? Witness —Yes, a girl; she is here to corroborate me. Mr. Benson—There is no occasion total( her now. Another man is in custody charged with being con cerned in this daring robbery. He is remanded till Saturday, on which day the, other prisoner will be brought here. A new phase of co-operation bas been developed at Rochdale. For some time past a theatre has been greatly needed in tho town, and .at length a few working men took up the matter, launched a co-operative society, with shares of £1 each, and obtained a fund of £6,000. The theatre, which was opened a few nights ago, will ac commodate 2,200 persons. A SHIP ON FIRE.—The William Hunter, screw steamer, of London, Captain Cowie, which arrived at Falmouth on Monday evening from Taganrog for orders, fell in with a ship on fire, of about 900 tons burden, at 5.30 p.m. on Sunday, about 50 miles W.S.W. from the Lizard. Captain Cowie approached within a quarter of a mile, in the expectation of finding the crew in the boats, but he discovered none, and left her. On Monday morning, at seven a.m., they spoke the steamer Cintra, of Liverpool, with signal flying, " I'm in distress," and they reported she had boon towing a barque and fouled the tow-rop3 in her screw. The William Hunter took the Cintra in tow for two hours, intending to reach Falmouth, when the tow-rope broke. The William Hunter then put two hawsers on board tho Cintra, but at that moment the latter succeeded in clearing her screw, loosed the hawsers, and steamed away S.S.E. THE PROPOSED PROCESSION IN LIVERPOOL.—As soon as it became known that tho Fenians of Liverpool proposed hiving a procession on Sunday next the Orange men of the town, who are at least an equally numerous bole, proposed to form a procession to walk such a route as would inevitably bring the two bodies into collision. Yesterday the mayor (Mr. Whitley) had an interview with a deputation of Orangemen, and after pointing out the danger of breaking the peace of the 'town, promised if they would withdraw from their intention ho would use all legitimate means to prevent any procession within his jurisdiction. The deputation admitted tho force of what his lordship said, and promised to lay the matter before their lodges. His worship also had an interview with 13 Roman Catholic priests, who promised to advise their people to keep away from the proposed demonstration. Yesterday afternoon a meeting of magistrates was held, and it was determined not to allow the procession, and to take all due precautions for the preservation of the peace. Yesterday a portion of the military stationed in the town (the head-quarters of the 7th Regiment) was removed to Bury. There now remains in the town a military force of about 500 men, The polio force numbora 11001 211 E FRACAS AT IVEIVMARKET. The adjourned summons against the two jockeys— Henry Parry, of Newmarket, and Thomas Cannon, of Stockbridge, for the assault on Mr. James Lethbridge Templar, on Newmarket Heath, on the Cambridgeshire day,was heard at the police-court, Newmarket yesterday (Tuesday), and although the case was compromised, the proceediugs were, it will be seen, of an extraordinary description. 'The magistrates cn the bench wore J. Dobede, Esq. (in the chair), Major Fryer, the Rev. W. Godfrey, and Doctor Bennett. The court was crowded, the auditory including nearly the whole of the Newmarket trainers and jockeys, who evinced considerable interest in the proceedings. Mr. Morowether, barrister, of London, instructed by Mr. Salmon, of Bury St. klinumds, appeared for the prosecu tion ; and Mr. Sleigh, barrister, of London, for the defen dants, being advised on the part of Par:T by Messrs. Ki . choners and Fenn, of Newmarket., and on behalf of Cannon by Mr. Leech, of Dvby.. The magistrates' clerk having stated the charges, ex plained that.when the case was first gone into on October 29, soon after the assault complained of was committed, a mass of evidence was taken, but he was not aware whether the counsel desired it to be read. Mr. Merewether said such a proceeding would not be necessary. Ho explained that he had been instructed by Mr. Salmon to prosecute, which accounted fur his presence there, and he thought himself bound to acquaint the Bench with certain proceedings which had taken place since the last examination. He intended frankly and candidly to put the magistrates in possession of the facts of what had happened, and would rely upon their good sense and judg ment for their approval that what had been done was right and proper. The prosecutor. Mr. Templar, acting under the advice of his relatives and friends, the case becoming more and more troublesome, had consented to refer the facts to two gentlemen of undeniable integrity, fur them to de ckle whether or not the affair was ono to be brought before the court, and the defendants to be dealt with according to law. The young men both bore high characters in their profession, and several of the masters of one of them were personally known to him (Mr. Merewethei). The defendants had always been held in high respect by their employers, and their characters ha i done them good service in this case. Tho result bad not been, as was at one time feared, of a serious nature to Mr. Templar, and both that gentleman and his friends, considering that the defendants had boon induced in a moment of wild excite ment to do an act quite inconsistent with their &Hy walk in life and in entire opposition to their previous good cha racter, had decided upon the course he had mentioned, and had taken the case before gentlemen who were in a posi tion to command respect. Those gentlemen bad been asked, first, whether or not the case was one to be taken before the court, and, secondly, what ought to be done. In taking this course, Mr. Templar stood upon his undoubted right to do so, and Lord Ailesbury and Mr. Thomas Hughes, the member of Parliament for Lambeth, the well-known author, who had done perhaps as much good to the world as any other man living, were asked to decide. Ho (Mr. Merewether) and his learned friend, Mr. Sleigh, attended before those gentlemen, and the whole of the evidence was taken as a fact. He trusted that the magistrates would allow him to read the decision, because it was of the utmost importance that the greatest publicity should be given to it. The learned counsel then read as follows : " At the request of all parties we have consented to arbitrate in the matter of the assault on Mr. Templar by mounted jockeys, among whom wore Cannon and Parry, at Newmarket, in October, 1867. We have considered the question whether it was a case in which Mr. Templar might with propriety forego further legal proceedings, and being clearly of opinion that it was such a case, and Mr. Templar having consented to forego all further legal redress, we order, firstly, that the accused pay all law costs and ex penses which have been incurred by Mr. Templar; se condly, that they pay a sum of - for the assault; thirdly, that they sign an apology, to be dictated by us. " AMESBURY. " TUOMAS HUGIIIS." Mr. Mcrowether explained that the blank was left in the decision because the arbitrators could not agree on the sum to be awarded to Mr. Templar for the assault, and which was to be devoted to some charitable institution or otherwise, as Mr. Templar might deem proper. Mr. Merewether then read as under : "Lincoln's Inn, December 6, 1867. "The arbitrators, before proceeding to consider the amount to be awarded for the assault, named Lord Gran ville as umpire in case they should disagree ; and bAng ultimately unable to agree the question of amount was re ferred to him. Lord Granville's decision was in the words following : "'I am of opinion that, in addition to the legal ex penses, tho jockeys should pay the medical expense up to the end of 1867, and £lOO each for the assault. " ‘(3ignod) GitANVILLE.' " We therefore award accordingly. " AMESBURY. " T. lIUGHES." Mr. Merewether, in continuation, said the magistrates 'would not regret the time he had expended, having regard to the prospects of the young men, if such a course as had been suggested should be come to. He might toll the magistrates what he had not disclosed to his learned friend, namely, that Mr. Templar was a fine, frank young man, distinguished for great nerve and judgment, and directly he had had time to reelect he had set his face as much as possible against anything the ulterior proceedings of which would bring any degradation to the defendants. He was desirous of tempering justice with mercy, and himself had stated that it went hard against him to take the bread out of their mouths, as he deemed it was in an unguarded moment that they had been the cause of injuries to him self. There was now a general exhibition of the hand of mercy to the defendants, and he (Mr. Merewether) trusted they felt thankful that the prosecutor's injuries had not turned out more serious, and that they would retain their characters, which had stood them in much good stead that day. Therefore, with the permission of the Bench, ho would withdraw the prosecution. Mr. Sleigh said he had very little to say in addition to what his friend, Mr. Merowether, had stated. The two young men who had that day surrendered to their bail had hitherto borne the most exemplary characters, but in the excitement they had become mixed up with a disturbance, for which they were now exceedingly sorry. Mr. Templar had undoubtedly adopted a wise course. It had been pub lished that the Bench had characterised the case as of a most disgraceful nature. He was not surprised at such an expression of opinion; indeed ho would have been surprised had any other been given, but the defendants regretted very much that in a moment of excitement they had become mixed up in the affair, the result of which had been per sonal injuries to Mr. Templar. lie (Mr. Sleigh) had no hesi tation in saying, however, that had the case gone on, the number of witnesses who would have been called would have put a different complexion on the case. He did not wish to say one single word in extenuation, but it was a genuine mistake, and the defendants did most deeply de plore it. They were fully prepared to accept tho decision come to by Lord Ailosbury and Mr. Hughes, having suf fered agony of mind and torture of suspense which they would not cease to feel for many a day. The magistrates then retired, and after a short consulta tion returned. Mr. Dobedo remarking that as the prose cution was withdrawn there was nothing for the Bench to consider. They neither expressed their concurrence nor dissent. Major Fryer stated that he believed it was himself who had characterised the assault as a most disgraceful one. Soon after the affair his opinion was asked in the matter, and he thought it should be brought before the Jockey Club, who had the control of the Heath during the races. He regretted that the advice was not acted upon. When Mr. Salmon stated the case at the first hearing he did so iu the strongest language. Ile (Major Fryer) was, an eye witness of the affair, and considered it most outrageous, and regretted that it had not been taken to a civil court. Mr. Merewether remarked that he also was an eye-wit ness of the affair, and thought it a-most extraordinary scene. As no serious results were now apprehended, the prosecution would be withdrawn.. The proceedings then terminated. ' Foreign Mail Packet List. MAILS DUE.

Charge of Bigamy against a Baronet• -The fon) 7/111g, appeired in oar LateJt Edition of yesterday evening : To-day, Sir Culling Eardley, Bart., was placed before Mr. Flower to answer a charge of bigamy. The defendant was apprehended on a warrant which charged him with - feloniously marrying, on the 12th of September, 1867, Mary Alleync, his wife, Emily Florence, being then alive. Mr. Gifiard, QC., prosecuted, and Mr. M. Williams appeared for the prisoner. Mr. Magee said—l reside at No. 4, Lancaster street, Hyde -park. I❑ the year 1553 I was living in New York, and at the time I had my daughter, Emily Florence, residing with me. In the course of that year I bee trne acquainted with the defeadant, Sir Culling Eardley. He ultimately paid his addresses to my daughter, and was married to her on the 12th D,2., 1859, at Calvery Church, in the episcopal diocese of NeW York. The mar riage was performed in the ordinary way by a person in holy orders. I heard the defendant and my daughter consent to become husband and wife. I afterwards saw the prisoner sign the register. Mr. M. Williams—You saw the prisoner sign something Witness—The clergyman said it was the register. As long as I remained in New York the newly married pair lived together as husband and wife. Cross-examined by Mr. M. Williams—l first became acquainted with the prisoner at the latter end of November of the year 1859. I knew him to be domiciled in New York three oc four weeks before the marriage. Mr. Williains —Can you swear that of your own, knowledge? Witness—Y - cs, I can. Mr. Williams—You positively swear that you saw the defendant 21 clear days in New York be fore the marriage. Witness—Well, I'll not be positive, but' think it WAS SO. Mr. Williams—Wbo was present at the mar riage? Witness--Cyrus Field and some of his family. fie is a person of known respectability, I think, in. England. Another gentleman, who is at preseut in court, was also there. Mr. Strepham produced the certificate of the officiating minister in New York of the marriage properly signed and sealed. Mr. Moseley said—l was present at the marriage in New York of the prisoner and Miss Magee. I have a sart of recollection about the signing of the registering ; it is nine years ago. I went into a room after the ceremony. Mr. M. Williams—You will not be quite certain about signing the register ? Witness—Well it is now nine years ago. William Henry Bannister—l am the registrar of marriages for St. George's, Hanover-square. I produce the register of the marriage between Sir C. Eardley and Miss Alleyne, oa the 12th September, 1867. The marriage was performed before me by licence, at the registrar office, in the parish of St. George's, Hanover-square. Mr. Robert De Tracy Gould—l am a barrister of the American bar, at which I have practised for many years. lam acquainted with the law of the State of New York. I have heard the evidence given by Mr. Magee of the ceremony in Calvery Church. If it took place as that gentleman has described, it was a perfectly valid marriage according to the law of America. It is not at all necessary to enter it on the register to make •it legal. It is quite unnecessary and quite exceptional. Mr. Williams—You have no doubt an authorised copy of the law with you ? Witness—No, I have not. Mr. Giffard—What is the law with respect to domicile ? Witness—l❑ the State of New York no domicile is required. Mr. Flower—Nothing is required, then, as to domicile ? Witness—No, nothing. Mr. Willi.unzi —Nor before the British Consulate ? "Witness—No. Mr. Williams—No witnesses ? Witness —No, but it is taken as -matter of pre caution. Mr. Giffard—Thenthere aro no banns required? Witness—No, nothing. You can be married in your own house, or even i❑ the open air if you like. Mr. Joseph Stretton, of 3, Gray's Inn-square, said—l am one of the attesting witnesses to the deed of separation which was executed by the pri soner and by his wife, Emily Florence. William Buck—l am warrant officer of this court. I apprehended the prisoner last night at No. 5, Grosvenor-villa, Junction-road, Upper Holloway. That was the evidence for the Crown. Mr. M. Williams said he had to say on the part of the defendant that after taking advice the pri soner came to the conclusion that his marriage in America was invalid. Mr. Flower said he should send the case for trial, and before he admitted the prisoner to bail a Judge at Chambers would have to be consulted. NAVAL A PPOIN TME NTS.
