While other dyes destroy the hair by their pernicious properties, this liquid promotes its growth, nourishing the roots to the latest period of life.

VI"ON OF A VOi'ER I laid me down beneath night's sombre pall, And dreamt a dream of London's Civic Hall. 'Tis strange that such a dream should cross my brain, Put so it is when poets take Champagne. The dream was this—that I was calmly strolling Inside the Hall, soon after noth , child's 1.111 N% When, all at once. I halted 'n my walking, On hearing voices, as of persons talking. So ter •Ing round to ascertain the noise, The talkative,. I found, were two big boys. One's name was Magog and the other's ("log; And this Is something Of their dialogue : NehatiNnir," said I tlibik this day's election Has furntib'cl us with something worth Inspection.

The large and carnmodious room was ivell filled; and the lecture, developing the principles and objects of the society, was listened to with much interest. From the statements of the lecturer, it would app ea r th a t the Potters' Society i s now in possession of three large estates in Western America. The first estate, compris ing 1,600 acres, is now peopled; it is named Potters yille. The second estate, comprising 2,000 acres, and named Emancipation, is in the course of peopling. It is on the south bank of the Fox River, and is said to com prise a succession of " oak openings," and to be rich in minerals. The third estate, comprising the large quan tity of 12,000 acres, is situate on the north brnk of the Fox River, and runs parallel with Emancipation. Two hundred families are now located on the last purchase, and from the remarks of the lecturer it would appear that the colonists are well satisfied with their change of country. Mr. Evans lectured at Bury on the previous Monday, and at Staleybridge and Ashton-under-Lyne on Thursday and Friday evenings. The society appears to be in a progressive and prosperous state, the receipts for thelast week being 1221.17 a. 9} I.—Manchester Examiner. FIRE AT BETHNAL-GREEN.—LaSt evening, about five o'clock, the inhabitants of Ann-street, Bethnal green-road, were greatly alarmed in consequence of the outbreak of a fire upon the premises in the joint occupa tion of Mr. Silverton, a fancy cabinet-maker, and Mr. Taylor, a trimming manufacturer, situate in the above named thoroughfare. The flames originated from some cause at present unknown, and so rapidly did they pro gress, that in the space of a few minutes the whole of Mr. Silverton's stock in trade became ignited, and when the fire penet ated the roof it ascended so fearfully as to endanger the contiguous property.

I bought a few railway shares in the autumn of 1845. I bought ten in 1847. I had nothing to do with the funds in 1846. I had to do with railway shares. I never gained anything by railway shares. I was introduced to the defendant by Youn,michael. I received the balance when it was in my favour. I have received money from Doxittn twice. [le resided at Bayswater. and had his seat at a hr..ltor's. The defendant never told me he did the business through West or Crook. The defendant is not a br..ker. I wrote to him every day from the country. I never• had the prtc,s of thus day sent to me. I have written to tle tendant on a Sunday; perhaps betw-en churches. No broker's contract was handed in with the document on the 16th of December, nor wi h the one in J snutry ur Fef.ruary. I tiever saw a broker's contract. Edward l'ecer Cooper. rho- plaintiff, is my brother. He used to he a manufacturer in Wiltshire. I am not doing any thing now fur my livelihuoi. I am living with my mother in law. J-tin Beaton, clerk in the Bank of England, was then: called, and proved that, by the direction of the ac e uunt at it. t.e had searched the bo ks of the C o esels from he year 1840 to the present dn.., and that neither Mr. Cooper nor the defendant bad had any during a ny part of that period. George Webb, the secretary of the Stack Exchange. was then called, and proved that the defendant was not, and never had been. a member of that establishment. Mr. MARTIN then proposed to put in the bill and answer in the Court of Chancery, but not being fur nished with an examined copy, the evidence was objected to and withdrawn. Mr. WATSON then addressed the jury for the defen dant, and contended that there was no sufficient evidence to show that the defendant knew that Mr. Cooper was not possessed of the stock in question. The jury must be satisfied that the defendant .knew that fact before he could be made liable to the penalties imposed by the Act. Mr. Cooper himself admitted that he had paid the differ ence when it was in his favour, and now, when his speculations had proved unsuccessful, he sought to make the defendant answerable. Lord DENiami then summed up the evidence to the jury. His Lordship said that, in his opinion, there was evidence in support of the two counts—the third and the fourth; and there was also evidence that the defendant was an agent within the meaning of the Act of Par liament. His Lordship remarked, that he had never before tried an action founded on this Act of Parliament, and expected at first that there might be some difficulty about it. It turned out, however, to be a very simple thing. The parties had made a bar gain, and agreed to pay the difference; and the ques tion was, on the third and fourth counts, whether the defendant had made the contract, as alleged, with the knowledge that Mr. Cooper was not actually possessed of the stock. No doubt it was a very improper proceed ing on the part of Mr. Cooper, who was a clergyman, and anything but creditable to him ; but the simple question now was, did the defendant know that Mr. Cooper was not possessed of the stock ? In the case of receiving stolen goods, h was tufficient to convict the re ceiver if at the time of receiving the goods he had the conviction that they had been stolen, and they turned out to have been so ; and so in this case, if the jury, knowing that,Mr. Cooper had no stock, should believe that the defeLdant was aware of that circumstance, he might be convicted in these penalties. There was some evidence that the defendant had knowledge of that fact, for the witness had said, in answer to a question on the suhj,ct, -I should say the defendant was aware of that." Ise sufficiency of that evidence, however, was for the jury, ho would judge from all the circumstances whether the defendant must have known that Mr. Co.ier was not actually possessed of the stock the sale of which he (die efendant) had negotiated. The jury then found a verdict far the plaintiff, which a ;tit, ly • ntcred in his favour, with a penalty of 1001. on the third count, and a penalty to the same amount ou env iuurth euuut. This was the last day of the sitting at nisi pries. July 11. The Court sat this moinThig at Westminster, fur the pu pose of dellverieg judgnunt in several cases which stood over ior considerstivia. JUDGMENT AT FAULT. Lord DENMAN, at the slung of the court, said tba, their Lordships had fallen Into a mistake in naming this they tor .be celivery of judgments, the Act of Parlia ment not giving any auth,,rity to the Court to pronounce liol4mPot 1101,ba on those days in the vacation on which Niai Prius Sittings wort. h.ld. The ,ntention of t he Court, when is named this day fur the delivery of judg tneuts was, that ihey should ttke kilt- et it pronounce d iii laht tt rut; but that effect we uld not, it now appeared, attach to tiieui as a matter of law; und, except by con sent of the parties, they could not take effect as judg ments b tore !text term. The Court would, however. ow deliver them, leaving the eun.ideration of the mat• ter open to parties tor agreement as to whether they .huuld be considered as judgments of last term. THE QUEEN V. THE JUSTICES OF GLOUCESTER. deTe n ndants, rua l irs i trtit i" ortri, order of maintenance on the putative father of an ille gitimate child. The application bad been once board, and dismissed, on the ground of the absence of cor roborative evidence. Subsequently, another summons had been taken out for a re-hearing, but was dis missed by the justices on the ground that the cause had already been disposed of. A rule for a mandamus was then obtained, calling on the defendants to show cause why they refused to hear the application, the party being prepared to offer additional evidence. That, in fact, was the question raised for the opinion of the Court. It had been contended that no second hear ing, in cases of this description, could be permitted; but the Court was of opinion that the 7th and Bth Victoria, c. 101, gave the mother of a bastard child a remedy similar to that which existed under the previous law in layout. of parishes against a person charged as the puta tive father of an illegitimate child. Looking at the statute, the reasonable construction of it seemed to the Court to be that there should be a second hearing, even though the case had been disposed of at the first hear ing, upon the merits, it being open to the magistrates to treat the new evidence with great caution. The Court, then, was of opinion that the magistrates were not warranted in refusing to hear the case, and the rule for a mandamus must therefore be made absolute. HALKETT V. THE DIRECTORS OF THE MERCHANT TRADING AND SHIPPING ASSOCIATION. This was an action to recover damages on an in surance effected on a vessel in the company of which the defendants are directors, and resulted in a verdict o f whose was boy for the plaintiffs. Judgment was entered on d sub E se r q i v a T en a t i l b y os issued was a that verdict for a sum of 1,0741. 16s. Bd. Exe cutionagainst r ; t b e e n d e ° L P that ay ' execution failing of being satisfied, a rule was ob tained calling on Earl Talbot to show cause why execu tion should not issue against his property, in order to make good the sum claimed by the plaintiff. The ground on which the rule was obtained was, that Earl Talbot was a large shareholder in the company, to the extent of 1,000 shares, at 501. each, which he took when Lord In• g -titre, and on which he paid a sum of 175/. On the execution against the company's goods having failed, the plaintiff issued a fiat, and the company was declared bankrupt, plaintiff being appointed assignee. The debt. of the company amounted to 60,0001, of which 54,8001. had been proved. To meet those debts, there were out) assets to the amount of 8,000/. The directors kept out of the way, and the plaintiff therefore applied for leave to issue execution against Earl Talbot. The Court having heard the arguments of counsel in the case, took time to consider. Lord DENNAN now went over the facts of the ca.e. and pronounced that the plaintiff was precluded, by ihe form of his policy. from having recourse against the pro perry of the tudi.iduals or the company to &attar 3 his c aim. The judgment of the Court. therefore, was, that the rule must he discharged, w i th c BEAUN, BROTHERS, V. RICKETTS. The rula in ttiti Case %a) d•setiarg d. --JENKINS V. HUTCHINSON. Lord DENMAN oeltvered j,digiueut in this case. The question at issue was, whether the defendant could be sued. who h.d signed a charter-party note under sale, as agent, wi.hout having authority to bind his prin cipal. The Court was of o pinion that the party who exe cuted an instrument in the name of another, ho only acting as agent for the other, could not be sued on the Instrument, COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, July 10. (Sittings at Niai Prius, before Lord Chief Justice WILDE and a Special Jury.) BARRE V. HILL. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, a ship owner and broker, carrying on business in Nicholas lane, in the City, against the defendant, a merchant at Liverpool, and surviving partner of the firm of Smith and Hill, of Liverpool, to recover a sum of 5,5971., for certain information and services supplied and rendered to the defendant. Mr. Cockburn, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Kinglalce, and Mr. Montagu Smith were counsel for the plaintiff, and Sir Frederick Thesiger, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Channel], and Mr. Cowling for the defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff was a gentleman particu larly cognizant of the effect of the different tariffs and rates of duties upon articles imported into . this country, and having noticed that the duty charged upon paddy, or rough rice, was higher than ought to be taken ac cording to the different treaties, ho communicated his information to the defendant's firm, stipulating for one-third of the profits which should arise from the discovery. They availed themselves of the information, and ultimately, by the exertions of the plaintiff in their behalf, largo profits were realised. The firm then refused to ackno w ledge the claim of the plaintiff, and this action was brought against the defendant to recover such share, and for compensation for the time and labour bestowed by the plaintiff in securing such profits. It appeared that in the year 1815, by a convention between this country and the United States of America, subsequently followed by others, continuing it for evrtain periods, and ultimately by a treaty in 1827, continuing it in force until further notice, it was stipu lated that no higher duties should be levied on the pro duce of the United Sates imported into England than were levicd on the produce or =mutat:tures of other foreign countries. This was continued by subsequent statutes, and remained in force at the time of the agree - I meat b etween the parties. Py a !statute peeped is the 3d and 4th William IV. a duty of 2s. 6d. per bushel was directed to be levied upon rough rice, hut if imported from seßritish possession the duty was to be only Id. per quarter. By a statute of the 6th and 7th William IV. the lower duty was extended to Western Africa ge nerally, whether British p )seession or not. Mr. Barry, The plaintiff, whose attention had been directed to these matters. discovered thet when the last-mentioned stature extended the lower duty to Western Africa generellyt the same privilege of the treaty of 1815 belonged to the United States. and that a duty of Id. per quarter ought E,w o ie i w7 b ibei e a:rit p ,,,nkfatis i 3r2 d paaidt.:;)64u p i ...

Fester and Smith, offering to ac (plaint them with a very' prof table secret upon certain d in terms. The negefiation Was conducted through a gen tleman Messrs. named Coleman, and a letter was signed by Messrs. Foster and Smith, agreeing to allow the plain tiff one third of the pre ffts derivable from the communi cation. A similar ter;reernent' was afterwards entered into with MessrQ. Ewbanks and 'Co. The plaintiff then sent his brother with the letters signed by Messrs. Foster and &fifth, and Messrs. Ewbanks and Co. to Messrs. Simpson and Co. and the defendants . ; 'of Liverpool, re questing them to agree tO the same terms, viz., to allow the plaintiff one-third of the Waits, if the secret should turn out advantageous. The defendants said they had no objection to the terms propsed. the plaintiff did not at that time communicate the secret, matters not being ripe, but it so 'happened that the plaintiff's brother left by accident at the defendant's counting house the letters of agreement signed' 'by Messrs. Foster and Smith and Messrs. Ewbanks, from which it was inferred that the defendant's firm were perfectly aware of the terms agreed to by those firms. The plaintiff then proceeded to try the experiment, and accordingly im ported a cargo of rough rice from Charlestown, but the higher duty was charged by the officers of the Customs. The defendant, likewise, upon the advice of the plaintiff; imported a cargo, upon which the higher duty was also charged. The plaintiff then memorialised the Commis sioners of Customs, without success, and afterwards he memorialised the Board of Trade, but with no better success. In order then to obtain the assistance and in tervention of the American Government, he procured a cargo of paddy to be imported into this country in the name of Junius Smith, an American citizen, and again the higher rate was charged by the Custom-house au thorities. -He then applied to Mr. Stephenson, the American Minister, by whom the question was laid before the Government, and the plaintiff also caused it to be mentioned in the House of Commons; and ulti mately, by means of the most untiring and unceasing exertion, the plaintiff succeeded in obtaining the ad mission of rough rice from America upon payment of the fewer rate of duty upon the deposit of Exchequer bills for the difference, and which, by the unwearied exertions of the plaintiff, were afterwards given up, and the personal bonds of the plaintiff and the defendant were accepted. All these proceedings were from time to time communicated by the plaintiff to the defendant, who invariably acted upon the information received, and a great many letters passed between the parties, from which it would appear that the plaintiff was actin as the agent of the defend int in the negotia tion with Government. Thr plaintiff never ceased in his endeavours with the British Government, and, at the ex piration of six years, after the most untiring activity and unremitting ex. rtions, he ultimately succeeded in obtaining a Treasury minute, dated August 6, 1842, whereby the bends were ordered to be cancelled which hail been given to secure the higher duty, and thus the Exchequer-bills for securing the higher duty upon the cargo.-s already imported by the detetidaut having been returned, the der. ',dant found himsvlt a gamer to the extent of about 12,0001; but. although Messrs. Fo.ter and Smith, as was stated, had honourably fulfilled the agreement which they halt entered into, the defendant refused to acknowledge the services of the plaiuriff. . A great number of official 9/ itnp.ses were then called, and a waits of decuu3eutery evidence was put in, which coital ded the plaintiff's cage. bir FREDERICK Nit:BIDER then submitted that there was no case to go to the jury upon the special count, and wade several objf cfions, two of which the Learned Judge thought were sustained, viz.:-Ist. That there w.a a variance between thecontrect laid in the declara tion and the nne prov,d, the promise laid iu the declare tto n being that the contract should be new to the de fendant, whereas the pr..mise proved was that it should be new to the trai or at least to Messrs. Ewbank and Co. and the defendant. 2dly. That the communication was not a valuable one; on the contrary, it was false and untrue; for, although there was in force a convention between this country an i America guaratlteeing the im portation of paddy :A the low duty, such convention, un confirmed by Act of Parliament, had not the force of law, and the Custom-house authorities would not be _warranted in orly the lower - duty._ The the ft7ri upon the common counts for work and So., when the parties intimated that a compromise might be effected, which was then agreed to as follows:—It was agreed that inasmuch as there were four actions pending against different houses in the paddy trade for the same cause, a sum of 11,0001. should be accepted as the sum due from them altogether, and in the present action the verdict should be taken for 2,7001 as the de fendant's share, without costs. This was the last day of the sittings. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, July 11. A special meeting in banco for the delivery of judg ments by consent had been appointed for toddy, but at the usual hour fur meeting, a message was received from Mr. Baron Parke that he had been obliged to go down to his circuit, and that some of the other Jadges having also to leave town for a similar purpose, it was impos• siblo to form a court. CONSISTORY COURT, July 11. (Before Dr. Lushington.) HALL V. HALL. Dr. ADDAMS applied to the Court for a divorce, it being a suit promoted by the wife, Mrs. Georgiana Hall, against her husband for adultery. The parties were married on the 11th September, 1848. Mrs. Hall at the period was staying with a friend of her family, a Mr. Pensford, when she met with Mr. Hall, and to whom she was clandestinely married; she afterwards re • turned to her father's house, and they never cohabited together. In February, 1849, they met at Boulogne, where they occupied the smile chamber as man and wife. Some time atter this they separated, and Mr. Hull afterwards cohabited with a female of the name 01 Batchelor, f.,r which Mrs. Hall now sought for a di vorce, which he (Dr. Addams) had no doubt but the Court would grant. The Learned JUDGE said he had no hesitation in granting the divorce as prayed; there appeared no op position to the suit. SAUNDERS V. SAUNDERS. This was an apoticdaiun made to th© Court to pro nounce Mr. Saund , rs, the party in the suit, in con t.mpt, for nut having paid the alimony aK arded to Mrs. Saunders. Mr. Saunders appeared in person. He stated his posi tion at the present m•nnent was very diff•rent to whet It was when the alimony was granted to his wife. H. •aid he was ready to °he) the order of the Court, but he lisd lost all his Vest India property, and his family affairs were in Chancery. His wife had ample means of her own, but he was sorry to say the money he had ...Bowed as alimony, and was for the support of his chit dr.-n, was very improperly disposed of. - His son had b. en s ent to St. Petersburgh fur no other object than the. w,sro Di' his money and his time ; but wbatever the Court ordered he av“uld obey its direeriuo. The LEA,nisign JUDGE said he had no power to alter his previous Judgwent; wha'ever was due un ler the head .ef alimony tau•t be Vaiii; and if Mr. Slunciers's circum stances were changed, he Mist, apply to the Court fur re lief in another tom. [PRICE SD• lanti he would postpone his de c i s i on f or t h e f o ll ow i ng re t.sons :—First, three of the children had been cx an caned of the tender ages of eight, eleven, and thirteen, whose evidence, when compared with that of the other wi to esses, must he examined w jib caution by the Court. Nl(Areover, in looking over the whole of the proceedings iu ti)is ease there were mtiny circumstances which re qui red deliberate consideration, independent of those to h .ucli he had already referred. The parties would not sutler by the postpme•nent of his judgment. On the rr; of Mr. Chesnut, he not paying alimony in conse yu of his being a pauper, could not suffer, nehher try m the tempizary separation from his wife. With re gal azi to Mrs. Cheanur, she was now under the protec tio n of the Court. and he would extend that prote,,i over her ; for these reasons he would postpone his jud.g, mcnt.

T' Ito weather was again delightfully fine, and the an• tiCif a ion of good sport produced, as on the previous day, a vas.,t assemblage of spectators, who evidently expe rienc,ed considerable gratitieation.

The race was a very good one. It is said to be " Chitty's practice " to o pen with a rattling start, and the winner did so in the present instance so effectually as to succeed in his cans AMA.TEUR SCULLERS' RACE, for a Silver Challenge Cup, presented by Mr. J.

They effected a capital start, and wero all scull and scull for a few strokes, and then the two first-named drew- slightly ahead of their opponents; but it was so good * race that they were unable to shake them off for some .diatance. Northman then gradually drew the nose of his boat about a couple of yards in advance of Mar sham, who, off the committee-barge, gave symptoms of picking him up. Berry, who had been fouled shortly atter the start, was unable to repair the disadvantage occasioned by his misadventure. As the leading boats nt , are d the Crab -tree, Marsham put on a fine spirt and brought the nose of his boat up to that of Northman's, but was unable to mend his advantage, and was finally beaten by three lengths. Second Heat. C. Clifford (purple) ... 1 G. C. Harpour (light blue) ... 2 There was a third gentleman entered, but he did not come to the post. Mr. Harpour took the lead and kept it up to the Crab-tree, where he had a good lead; but it was evident soon after that he had over exerted himself, and was uuablu to continue towards the close of the tu.re.

Notwithstanding the rowing of the previous day there were a number of persons who appeared to think the Durham crew would give their opponents their work to do; but the general opinion was in favour of the Claspers (not the same as rowed with the Coombes, but their brothers) and Sheppard's crew, but there was much diversity of opinion upon the subject. The appearance of the men was extremely confident, and the expectations of a good race were not disap pointed. It was a splendid start, and they were oar and oar with one another for the first three minutes, when the Wandsworth crew began to peep out in front, closely waited upon by the Durham, who in the next few strokes had a foot in advance of the Wandsworth party, and in ibis order they passed the committee-barge, when the winners went to work in gallant style, skot right ahead, and came in first by a length and a half in advance, after a struggle of the most gallant and lasting description.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Justice DENMAN and a Common Jury.) COOPER V. BLOXAM. Mr. Martin. Q.C., and Mr. Bovill appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Watson, Q.C., and Mr. Ryland for the defendant. Mr Bovia, in the absence of Mr. Martin, stated the case to the jury, and said this action was brought to re cover certain penalties which the defendant had incurred under the Stock Jobbing Act, the 7th George 11., c. 8. The Bth section of the Act imposed a penalty of 500/ e h s t es sh . o e uld sell any stock of which he negotiated . and a then contracten lcr enacted thatr tthe e i f salean y broker uwpanany o y r a personcatg u e a n l should y wP of any such stock, knowing that the seller Iva, not actu ally posses s ed o f t h e same, he should be liable' to nalty of 100/. for each off ence , one h a lf to go to the ci i tte P e e" n and the other half to the p e r son w h o s h ould sue for the same. The defendant was now sued for having acted as an agent in violation of his section of the Act. The de claration contained several counts, setting out several dis tinct transactions to a large amount, which the defendant had negotiated for a person named the Rev Robert Cooper, the brother of the present plaintiff. The defendant was not a member of the Stock Exchange, but was one of a class of persons who were called " alliga tors." These p'raons exercised their vocation in the vicinity of the Exchange, and, like alligators, they some 'lmes preyed upon their victim ; but whether the de fendant was an "alligator" in this sense would be seen ny the evidence. The Rev. Robert Cooper was a clerk in holy ord , irs, and formerly held a curacy in Wiltshire, nu*, he had been completely ruined by the course into which the defendant had led him. He had either paid or given s.eurity to the defendant to the extent of 4,0001. arid had given up his curacy. The triends of the Rev. Mr. Cooper filed a bill in Chancery against the de fendant, the object of which was to make him disgorge some of the money which he had rec.ived, and t stop the circulation of certain bill, to the amount of 1,0001., which Ir. Cooper bad accepted. In the bill in Chan cery the defendant wa. &Aced when, and from whom he had purchased certain st A, to which he had answered that tis answer would expose him to penalties under the Stock Jo bing Act He could not, th. refute, complain of the prevent proceedings, which had been instituted by the friends of Mr. Gayer, who telt ha' he was bound to corn- into the witin.-as box and state the w h of the facts. The Rev Rub.-rt (J ..per was tha-n exmoined by Mr. M Bata, in the year 1846 I bec4tne acqusieted .i,h the & fendant. I was introduced to him by Mr. Youngmichtel. The defendant was an agent. He bad the seat of an office at No 6, Spread Eagle court, near Threadneedle-street. The offico b.-loinced to Mr. West, who afterwards gate it up to Mr. Crook. Soon after I was introduced to the defendant I had transactions with him in buying and selling stock. That began in the year 1847. Claims were made from time to time for diffe rences, which he said I owed him. The result was, I gave several bills of exchange in respect of the alleged differences. (The bills of exchange were here called for by the plaintiff, but not produced by the defendant.) The amount of differences was about 1,5001. I paid the defendant some amount in cash; that was about 4001. In December, 1848, I was in London; I was not at that time possessed of 60,0001. consols. I never had any con sols. I should say the defendant was aware of that. I gave the order by word of mouth, in the efface, I believe. I ordered him to sell 60,000/. stock. He left the office, and was absent about ten minutes. On his return ho gave me the contract. This is the document. It is in the defendant's handwriting. (The paper was then put in and read as follows : " London, Dec. 29, 1848. " Sold for the Rev. Robert Cooper 60,0001. Consols, at 88k, for the 16th of December. " WILLIAM BLoxAm.") On the 2d of January I gave him an order to sell more stock. The amount then was 20,000/. I had no Con sols. The defendant left the office, and on his return he gave me a contract. This is it:—(The paper was then put in and 'read, as follows: " Slid for th e R ev. R o b ert C oo p e r 20,000/. Console, at 88i. for th e 16 t h o f J towtry. `6 W. B.") " London, Jan. I, 1849 . I had an Console. It was a mere time bargain. I had to pay the ditf,rence on the 16th. On the '23d of Ja nuary I gave th e d e f en d ant an or d er to b u y ; that was in his office, or so mew h ere a b out . H e gave me this paper as the advice not e o f t h e b uy i ng .—(Th e b oug ht note for 50,0004 was here read.) O n the same day I gave him directions to b u y 80, 000 /. Consols. The defendant af terwards gave roe memorandum of the difference.— (1 he I , .2.ritudutti as here put. in and read, staling the witness's 1036 to be 6904 153.) No transfer was made of stook. KING V. KING. This was an application made to the Court for a divorce on the ground of adultery. The suit was pro. muted by the Hon. Mr. Robert King against his wife, Mrs. Ann Gore King, for having committed adultery with the Viscount Sr. John. I)rs. Jenner and Bayford were heard in opposition to the allegations. Dr. Haggard and Dr. Harding in sup port of them. The Learned JUDGE in going over the allegations ad mitted many, but ordered the 28th allegation to be amended. HARTLEY v. HARTLEY. Dr. ADDAMS said this was a suit for a divorce, pro moted by the husband against his wife for having com mitted the act of adultery with a Mr. Thompson, an engineer on one of the railways. The act was,said to have been committed at Liverpool, where Mr. Thompson took a house for the purpose of carrying on the illicit intercourse with Mrs. Hartley. There was no opposition to the suit. The Learned JUDGE, in consequence, signed the di voree. CHESNUT V. CHESNUT. This was a suit promoted by the Rev. Mr. Chesnut, late curate of St. Peter's, Wallirook, and Trinity Church, Newington, against his wife for restitution of conjugal rights. The parties were married on the 4th Dec., 1832, Mrs. Chesnut having a fortune of 10,000/. as a marriage portion, and there were five children, the fruits of the marriage. Dr. WADDELOVE, on the part of the wife, stated the lady for whom he appeared had to complain of a con tinued course of cruelty which had been pursued towards her by her husband from so only a period as five months after her marriage, and that was continurd until the period of her separation trom him in March, 1848. lie was in the habit of associating with low a nd aban doned characters, frequently striking her, and applying offensive terms to her, and, in conclusion, dissipated herthe whole of her handso me fortune, leavin4 her and children to beggary; she was, therefore, compelled to Leek the protection of the Court, who, he was sure, would not refuse to grant her the separation from her toisl‘a,,d which she now souaht. w,4s ItLard QU the 0:11 of the reverbhd gentleman.

The contest was continued with great spirit, the Agnes having a slight lead up to the high bridge, where, in consequence of their shooting too much into the bight, they fouled the' Wandsworth cre w , which had the of , ct of creating a slight stoppage to the Chelsea boat. The Oxford men, who kept a very good course in the race, then went well in advance ; winnieg by a length and a half. The Agn es crew were ranch chagrined at their mishap. AMATEUR SCULLS. Grand Heat.

It is at once surprising and gratifying to observe the , crowds who flock daily to this noble temple of practical science, to enjoy the vast treasures of instruction and entertainment which are presented here, notwithstand ing the innumerable temptations to out-of-door amuse ments scattered at this season in every direction, throughout the sylvan menageries, the public conserva tories, and the histrionic gardens around the metropolis; and it is a matter of great credit to the management of the institution that the ventilation and temperature are so agreeably regulated in the thronged halls, galleries, and theatres of the institution, during the tropical heat which has prevailed for some dep. At no period have the varied lectures been more attractive or instructive, and the successive audiences appear, from month to month, advancing in the intelligence and interest with which they attend to them. This, of course, must in some measure be accounted for by the acknowledged improvement of the public taste in the appreciation of the most refined sources of pleasure; but still very much is due to the singular excellence of the Polytechnic professors, in the clearness and sim plicity of their discourses, which render the most recondite learning popular, and the most abstruse science intelligible even to the child. The surpass ing merit of Dr. Richhoffner in this respect is sufficiently well known to our readers, and it is only those alio frequently attend his lectures that can do justice to the easy good humour and temperate gaie:ty with which he enlivens the driest subjects, and the tin laboured eloquence of diction with which be untillds the riches of science to his charmed auditories. hlis example, and that of his l•ete highly gifted coadjutor, Dr. Ryan, seem to a great degree to influence the several professors who ar• trots time to time associated in the grand objects of the eats. blishment. The principal subject of Dr. Bachhoffner's present series of lectures is the production of artificial ice, and the experiments with which they are illustrated very much surpass in beauty and interest anything that could be anticipated. The process which the Learned Pro teaser has to explain is the invention of Mr. Masters, of hi: g' at•street, confectioner, who is known to the puhlio as a mechanical inventor of a rest success end ingenuity, of which his knife-cleaning and sharpening apparatus is a very remarkable and useful example. The freesing iaventiou is likely to exceed very far indeed most others of the day in its hitherto =bought-A utility, for, as we have beard a philosophic auditor of Protissor Bachhoff aer's observe, last evening in the lecture-room, " we may soon expect to see Mr. Masters adapt the principle of these apparatus to the reduction of temperature in hos t itals, and in the mansions of tropical climates, so that t' e British East Indian may enjoy at Calcutta the re et'.!shment of his present sanatorium on the lower llunalayas!" About thirty years ago Professor Leslie produced a freezing apparatus by which he oonfidently predicted that. we should be able to produce ice on a large scale in the hottest climates of the glebe. But, al though his apparatus was perfectly successful in fact, yet it was found more expensive or less con►enient than the application of natural ice to the ordinary purposes of the confectioner, and the butler, and even of the physician, wh•. seems to have been but little thought of in relation liicrtide d";t:kilit !Flit !lain 1 5 ST Tr hi l s - inventive - : tions. Leslie's apparatus never came into use. Natural, or ea it is called technically, " rough " ice, continues to be the great refrigerator, and not only temperate and southern Europe, but Egypt, India, and even China, re. ceive large and expensive supplies from North America., so that the ice trade has been a staple branch of American commerce, which, however, is destined ho re ceive at least a check from this important invention; for it is demonstrated that four quarts of pure spring water are converted into solid chrystal ice, whilit, in the same process, and simultaneously, that is, in four minutes, two quarts of dessert ice ready mixed, and flavoured with cherry, lemon, ginger, or what you like, may be produced, at the expense of less than one penny, and kept cold and firm on the table for hours, on the hottest day—in Calcutta or Hong Kong ! Masters' apparatus for the parpose is a small rotary churn, worked easily by a child, costing but little, and scarcely larger than a common tea-urn. Besides this, all the varied apparatus of Masters for supplying and applying ice, exhibited by Dr. Bachhoffner, are of the most elegant forms, and of no more than the ordinary bulk of the decanters, bacons, jugs, and other ornaments of the table and sideboard. One very beautiful vessel, about the size of the ordinary funnel affixed for a moment to the neck of a decanter, serves to strain and ice instan taneously the wine poured through it from the bottle. A. decanter stand or tray, of elegant fashion and common size, is contrived to keep your wine coo►, or cold (if you like) to the end of the feast. Butter, by similar means, is kept firm and sweet ; water, wine, or lemonade, cool, upon the sideboard all the dog-days through. And, by the bye, the churn is equally applicable to the making of butter as of ice, with an equal saving of labour and expense. Ice creams and water-ices are e hipped and beaten up while in the act of freezing—at the rate of a dessert fur 300 persons in twenty minutes—at the coat of one person's attendance, and about one halfpenny per quart. Yet far more important, although less profitable to the inventor, is the metallic cap, which Dr. Bachhoffner ex hibited last night, for application to the bead, in those t desperate and painful cases in which the applii..ation h o ice is resorted to. Ice is not always . at hand. b Te material of Masters' freezing mixture . is to e had at henai•t's and every chemist, apothecary, and p e hTs y lcia c n should . be provided with Masters ' refrigerating head - piece. which our space prec,ut es us from more fully describing. Much greater good than at first sight appears will doubtless result from an extended ap plication of these inventions. FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT NEWMARILET.—A most dreadful accident occurred here on Tuesday life afternoonetthto Miss Julia Marson, by which it is fe are d the most amiable yoang lady will be sa cri fi ce d.

Mr. Maroon ran down from his bedroom on hearing the dreadful screams, and a Mr. myth, who had jest left the house, and was not more than a hundred yards off, hearing the cries, returned, caught the poor girl in his arms, put her on the ground, and extinguished the remaining flames, but scarcely a vestige was then left of her clothing.
