V. GOWER. This was a suit instituted by the husband to obtain a dissolution of marriage on the ground of his wife's adultery with his brother, Zachariah Gower, who is since dead. The Solicitor-General, Dr. Spinka, Q.C., and Dr. Tristram appeared for the petitioner, and Dr. Deane, Q.C., and Dr. Middleton, for the respondent. From the opening remarks of the Solicitor-Gene ral it appeared that the petitioner is a farmer at Bad dingham, io Suffolk, and also has another farm at Bungay. The respondent was a Miss Ley and was mar ried to the petitioner in January 1816. They resided at Baddingham, and appeared to have livel happily together until 1861, when a brother of the plaintiff came to live with them. In consequence of the business in which he was engaged petitioner was obliged to be much away from home, and the brother and wife wereleft much alone toget her. In May, 1863, the petitioner, accompanied by his wife and brother, left Baddingham to drive to the other farm at Bun gay, and sat beside the coachman while the other two were inside. On looking back he witnessed the grossest indecency going on between them. As soon as he arrived at Bungay he accused his wife of it, saying that that could not have been the first time it had occurred. He then made inquiries of the servants, and found that they had slept toge ther, and been seen in the stables, &c. Harriet Doyland said that her husband kept the White Horse, under Mr. Gower, at Baddingham. He left there about three years ago. She remem bered Mr. Zachariah Gower and Mrs. Gower' coming to her husband's house in 1863, and they went into a parlour and had a glass of brandy and water. Witness went into the room, to get some money, and she saw Mrs. Gower on the sofa, and Mr. Gower pulled her clothes down. Dr. Deane objected that the respondent had re ceived no notice of the adultery this witness was called to prove. The Judge-Ordinary said that under the circum stances he should rule this was not evidence. The Witness (examination continued)—She gave a message to Mrs. Gower from Zachariah to the effect that she had been with him as much as with her own husband. She replied that she could not help that, that the job was done, and she hoped her husband would forgive her. Cross-examined --They got into trouble when they were at the Black Horse, and lost the license. They kept the Royal Oak at Ipswich. She had been married for 30 years. Several other witnesses were called to prove other acts of adultery. (The case was proceeding when we went to press.) POLICE INTELLIGEKCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUG 11-STREET. OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT IN A DINING ROOMS.— John Lemon, described as a veterinary surgeon, of no fixed address, was charged before Mr. Knox with assaulting Frederick Darlesson, w.titer at dining rooms No. 30, Coventry-street. The complainant said that on the previous after noon the prisoner came into the rooms of his em ployer to dine, and after dining went to sleep. He woke the prisoner several times, and the last time he did so he struck him and knocked him down, and also struck a young gentleman who was dining at the rooms and came to his assistance. The prisoner behaved in a very violent manner, and broke some glasses on the table, and was the cause of a pane of glass of the value of 12s. being broken. A con stable was sent for, and the prisoner was then given into custody. Two gentlemen proved seeing the prisoner strike the waiter, and knock him down on his waking the prisoner up and asking for payment. Police-constable Smith, 45 C, said that on being called to the rooms he found thR waiter holding the prisoner down on the floor. The prisoner had been drinking. Mr. Knox asked the witnesses for the waiter whether he had done anything to provoke the prisoner, and they said he had not. The prisoner said he had been travelling from Dublin, and went to the place to dine, and, being tired, fell asleep. The waiter came and woke him up, and he shoved the waiter off, and then the landlord and another person came up and struck him, and he bled from the nose. Mr. Knox asked the constable whether prisoner's nose was bleeding, and the constable said it was. The prisoner said he had been roughly treated. Mr. Knox said it was outrageous conduct for a man to go into an eating-house and act like the prisoner had done. He would give him the option of paying a fine of £5 or a month. THAMES. ALLEGED MURDER ON BOARD SHIP.—On Tues day last a poor man, named M'Guinness, and his wife, dwelling at 54, Bell-street, Edgware-road, came before Mr. Partridge, and complained that their son, Allau Goodridge M'Guinness, ordinary seamen on board the ship Marlborough, had been brutally murdered on board that ship in the course of her voyage to the East Indies and back, and that four or five of the crew had stated that he was badly used by the captain. Mr. Partridge ordered an immediate inquiry to be made by Daniel Smith, police constable 415 K, who now came before the court with five sailors, and said the deceased was sent aloft to grease the masts in consequence of some neglect of duty, and while thus engaged he had the misfortune to meet with a coup de soleil or sun stroke, which affected his intellect, and he died ten days afterwards. He was not able to ascertain whether the captain had treated the young man with any particular harhness before he was attacked with sunstroke. After the sea man was taken ill he received medicine, and was attended by the captain until he died. _ - Mr. Partridge, after questioning the seamen, said he did not see any grounds for his interference, and he should leave the case in the hands of Inspector Allison, an experienced officer of the K division, who would make further inquiries, and interfere if he thought there were any grounds for doing so. JEALOUSY AND REVENGE. -Edward Clay, a young man, was charged with violently assaulting Miss Starkey. The parties had been very intimate, and both had vowed eternal constancy to each other. The prisoner had told her if he ever saw her with any other man, or if she was unfaithful to him, he would kill her. Last night he discovered the faithless fair one walking with a young mau arm in -arm, and the young man was whispering soft nonsense into the complainant's ear. The prisoner accused his swcatheart with unfaithfulness and a violation of her pledged vows, and committed a brutal assault on her. He struck her about the head and face, cut her mouth, and loosened three or four of her teeth. Her mouth was bleeding, when a police-constable, No. 251 K, came to her aid. The prisoner said he had been very ill, and laid up with fever. Ilis head was shaved, and he was very ill. The complainant said that Clay was a lazy, dissipated fellow, but his friends were very respectable. . . The magistrate said he must protect young women from such brutal assaults as these, and sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for two mouths, and kept to hard labour.

IREL All P. DUBLIN, June 7. Some light has been thrown on the Dungarvan mystery by the arrest of two men near Midleton, in the county Cork. On Tuesday night Sub-con stable Farrell and another policeman when patrol ling the road near Ballyedinond, met two travellers whom they took for cattle drovers on their way to Cork. They were old frieze coats, but the sharp eyes of the policemen detected something of the Yankee cut in the slouched hats and square-toed boots, which had been carefully disguised with mud, and had the angles somewhat rounded with a pen knife. They gave their names as John and Patrick Carr, but in such au embarrassed manner as to con firm the suspicious of their captors. On one was found an instrument branded " Armylinife,Union," which comprised a knife, fork, and spoon, each of which could be drawn out and used independently. On the other was found a very fine silver lever watch, and a pocketbook containing some coins, a card of the Connecticut Clock Company of New York, with a cipher on the back " William A. Stevens, 126, Adelphi, Brooklyn," a watchguard composed of alternate links of ebony and copper, land a handsome gold ring with an oval in opal. The constable, believing that a man in old corduroy trousers and tattered frieze coat could not have come honestly by such arti c l es , h a ndcuffed his prisoners. One of them said, " Well, as long as we have run we are jowled at la s t." T o w hich his companion re plied, " We are nabbed, Pat." The reporter of the Cork Examiner, who gives these particulars, further states : " They had gone but a little way when the first man, turning to his captors, said, There is no use, I suppose, in concealing it—since I am taken I might as well say my true name is Patrick J. Keane, late Captain of the 99th New York Volun teers.' And my name,' added the other prisoner, is Frederick Fitzgibbon, of New York." 'By the way,' remarked Keane, we have escaped 3ou a long time ; we met the Midleton police, and upon their questioning us I told them my father was a herd to Mr. Barry, of Carrigton-hill. The constable asked me where I was going, and I told him 1 was return ing to my father with some bread he had sent me to purchase.' Some bread was found on the pri soner when arrested, which no doubt lent colour to his ruse, and enabled him to baffle the suspicion of the Midleton police. Both prisoners laughed heartily at the success of their manceuvre. Keane entertained the police on the way to Midleton with stories of the great American campaign, through which he said he had served from the first battle of Bull's Run down to the capture of Richmond and final dispersion of the Southern army. He rattled sway in a jocular manner about his regiment., and alluded sarcastically to ' big' Joe Gleeson and his nepotism in promoting his brother over several senior officers in the brigade—himself among the rest—a proceeding which, he said, gave infinite dis gust to that section of the army. He also alluded to his intimacy with J. J. O'Connor, John O'Mahony, and many others whose names have be come prominent either in connection with recent events in this country or in the American war. That Keane had done his devoir as a soldier was sufficiently proved upon personal examination, for, being subjected to a strict search, it was found that there was hardly an inch of his body unmarked by sword-cuts or bullet-marks, even the backs of his hands presenting the traces of sabre-cuts, while the calves of his legs, his arms, and other parts of his person showed unmistakable scars. Before arriving at Midleton Keane asked constable Farrell, in a way designed to be indifferent, whether anything had occurred recently." He was then informed of the landing of the men at Helviek Head. The prisoners were brought be fore Mr. Ryan, R.NI., at Midleton, and in reply to his inquiries Keane repeated the statement that he had made to the police, adding that he was born in Ireland, but had emigrated 19 years ago. 'That he, with others, had left New York for Ireland 15 weeks before ; that Lhe vessel had been detained by adverse winds and other circumstances till Ist June, when they landed at Ilelviek Head, being then out of provisions, and having on board only half a pint of water. Keane resolutely declined to state far what purpose he had left New York, or what was the na- ture of the business he intended to transact in this country. The other prisoner, Fred. Fitzgibbon, said he was a native of Dublin, that he had embarked from New York in the same vessel as his fellow-pri soner, but he also declined to tell the name of the ship, or or state what was the purpose of his visit to this country. When asked if they had any relatives in Ireland to whom they might make reference, both stated that no connections of theirs lived in this coun- try. Keane said he was a married man, and that his wife lived in New York. Both prisoners, while under examination, behaved in the most unobjec tionable manner. Keane is a man of middle height, square built, and of swarthy complexion, with a sharp, daring countenance, and of military appear ance. Fitzgibbon is somewhat less in size. Upon being committed to gaol Fitzgibbon immediately proceeded to write a letter to his relatives in New York, requesting an immediate supply of £4O or £5O to extricate himself from his difficulties. Keane merely requested that a pocket comb which had been among his effects when searched might be returned to him, as he did not wish to dress his hair with the prison combs. The inference from these disclosures is that these two men belonged to the party who landed at Helvick Head, that this party consisted of American officers specially detailed to act as leaders during the recent rising ; that they left New York for that purpose some time about Feb. 1, which would bring them to Ireland about March 5 ; but that having had an unfavourable voyage they had only arrived off the coast on Saturday, when starva tion—a word used by one of the prisoners—forced them to land. The whole party were conveyed from Dungarvan to Waterford on Wednesday under a strong guard, commanded by the resident magis trade, Mr. Redmond. A large crowd of people met the cavalcade near the town, and accompanied it to the doors of the prison. No manifestation of any kind took place. The feeling predominant in the people was more one of pity for the folly of the youths than sympathy with them. They are all quite young, generally strong and healthy-looking, and are remarkablyby Mr. well-dressed. Twenty-four of them were brought iu. The Earl of Huntingdon, accompanied Ir. Armst rong , J.P., Mr. Fitz gerald, J.P., and M r . Goold, R.M., visited the prison and inspected the prisoners shortly after their arrival. There are now 35 persons in Waterford Gaol under suspicion of complicity in the Fenian movement. It is stated that the Irish Attorney -General has refused to fiat the appeal to the House of Lords from the decision of the Judges in M'Afferty's case. No further proceedings to reverse the decision can now be taken. The General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church has continued its sittings during the week. The report of its Church extension scheme, read yester day evening by the Rev. Dr. Kirkpatrick, concludes by stating that they proposed nothing less than the evangelization of Ireland :—. " It is the work for which, more than for any other missionary work, we are richly furnished with resources. It is the work which, if diligently pur sued, will give us increased power and influence for kindred undertakings in other lands. It is the work this country urgently needs. Ireland has long been a proverb and byword among the nations. It is at this moment, as for centuries it has been, the great difficulty of England. Our statesmen are ut terly perplexed to find a cure for its numerous and varied wants and ills. In vain the enactments of law—in vain the decisions of the Bench—in vain our concessions—in vain our threats—we have not succeeded in reconciling the great mass of the people of Ireland to British rule. It is the Gospel alone which will avail to heal the wounds of this distracted country, and to bind its population in bonds of alle giance to the Sovereign, and of brotherly kindness to one another." PIGEON FLYING MATCII.--On Thursday 30 pigeon fanciers on tho Surrey side flow a match with pigeons from Ascot Races. The subscription was 10s., and the first bird arriving with the name of the winning horse of the Ascot Cup was entitled to the stakes. A small pigeon of the beard tribe won, performing the distance in 47 minutes. STATE OP TRADE'. MANCHESTER, June All sections of the mar ket have been quiet to-day, and business has been entirely devoid of animation. The market for shipping yarns has assumed a quieter tone ever since Tuesday, and to effect sales to-day slightly lower prices would have to be submitted to. Spinners generally being under contract hold steadily to their quotations, and it is only in exceptional cases that buyers can obtain any advantage. Sellers look for ward to a considerably improved demand so slon as the holidays are over. The exceedingly large business done in yarns during the last few weeks disposes buyers to pause, and in home trade yarns as well as those for shipping there is less doing to-day, at prices tending rather in favour of the buyer. The cloth-market is quiet, There is no actual change in quotations, though perhaps in a few instances prices have been rather against sellers where smal lots have been purchased. Buyers report that in some cases they have been able to operate l id. per piece lower than on Tuesday, while manufacturers have found yarns under 50's about -id. per lb. cheaper. The chief business doing is still for India, the demand for other markets being languid. BARNSLEY, 7th.—The iron trade in the South Yorkshire district may be said to be a shade firmer in nearly all departments. At Milton and Elsecar matters are improving, and more work is being turned out. At the South Yorkshire works at Penistone the men are actively engaged in the manufacture of Bessemersteel, several hundred tons being turned out weekly. At the railway waggon works there is not so much doing as of late. At the Midland and Park gate works there is more work doing, and future prospects are encouraging. At Northfield matters are more cheering. In manufactured iron there is little improvement to report. The armour-plate branch is a little healthier. In railway materials, such as tyres, axles, wheels, &c., there is a brisk business. The coal trade remains without much alteration. In house coal there is a fair trade for the time of the year, both at the landsale pits and with the London and country merchants. In slack and smudge for coke making, and engine fuel, a brisk business is being done for the manufacturing districts. At the Lundhill colliery a great demand for coal exists for London and Lancashire, and a few Jaye ago no less than 880 tons of coal were drawn out in one day, besides slack, &c., a larger quantity than has been known to be drawn out in one day since the col liery was opened. LEIC ESTER, 7th.—ln consequence of there being but little new wool in the market, and the old in the hands of the dealers not being of the right kind, business with wool-staplers is much at a standstill. There is a good demand for the best quality of hogs, which appear to be the only things asked for by Yorkshire houses. Generally speaking, the trade may ba said to show a slight improvement over the past few weeks. 'Worsted yarns are flat, at somewhat lower prices, nor is any great improve ment expected until after the wool fair, the result of which manufacturers seem to be waiting. It is hoped that after the coming holydays orders will begin to rally. Cotton yarns are steady in price and firm, and silks higher. The worsted hosiery spinners are doing a much better business than for some time past. A large number of orders are being made up at regular rates, and altogether things look exceed- ingly hopeful for after the holidays. The improve ment in the autumn woollen hosiery trade continues, but it is of a very slight character, houses purchasing simply from hand to mouth. There is a good demand for cotton plain hosiery considering that it is nearly the errd of the Leicester season. At Hinck ley the trade continues very active, but this week the shipping orders have not been quite so numerous. The elastic trade shows a better demand for boot gusset webs, and orders to hand are fully up.to the average. Materials are still advancing in price. There is no new feature to report in the boot and shoe trade, which continues pretty brisk, with a fair shipping business. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. - - -- ASCOT RACES.-FRIDAY.

VICTORIA CLUB BETTING. The counter attractions of the yearling sale at Eltham caused the attendance to be somewhat limited, and it was late before any attempts were made to speculate on future events.

Those who can appreciate nautical skill and were not present at the cutter match on Friday lost a treat. Although there were but two yachts engaged in the race, they were so evenly matched that a gallant contest was maintainel throughout. The competitors were— Yachts Tons 0 wners Vanguard GO Phryna The irindex was to have gone, but, owing to the death of the owner's mother, she was withdrawn. The club steamer was the Antagonist, Captain Sumpter ; and Mr. W. N. Rudge was the officer of the day, in the absence of the noble comniod ore. The prize was of the value of 100 soya, and the course wasfrom Gravesend to the Mouse Light and back. Although on the first sailing of this disputed match last Thursday, the vessels, owing to a lack of wind, only reached a little below the Nore Light, there was a fine whole-sail breeze yesterday from W.S.W. ......... ... _ .. The yachts were started from off the Union Yacht House, whither a number of influential members of the club had repaired and slept on the previous night. The signal to prepare was fired at 6.56 a.m., and they were under weigh in five minutes afterwards. The Phryne, which had dropped down nearly a couple of lengths, had the best of the start, but off the Town-pier the Vanguard slipped down to her, and directly afterwards ran by her. The Phryne had a balloon foresail and jib set, the Vanguard only a balloon jib. They repeatedly showed alternate advantage, and on entering Sea Reach the Phryne to leeward lulled under the bow of the Vanguard, and the latter, keeping her course, touched the stern of the Phryne with her bowsprit. This might have been avoided by the Vanguard either jibing or luffing, which she could have done, as there was plenty of water between her and the shore. Off the Chap man the Vanguard passed the Phryne, but in a few seconds afterwards the latter ran through her lee. Approaching Southend, the Vanguard again passed and arrived at the Nore at 8 hrs. 36 min., being 52 sec. ahead of her rival. The Vanguard gained a little more, and then the Phryne set her " spinnaker," as it is termed, and gradually, by the advantage it gave, outstripped the Vanguard, and they reached the Mouse thus— - U.

Both then made a long board to the south ward, and did not come about until close over to the end of Isle of Sheppey, where, on rounding, the Van• guard crossed the Phryne's head. From this moment until the end of the race there was not a shadow of doubt as to which would reach the goal first. In every board the Vanguard, turning like a top, in creased her lead, and the race finished in the follow ing time : H. M. Vanguard 1 25 Phryne Both owners having hoisted signal protests against each other for what had occurred in Sea Reach, the parties adjourned to the Union Yacht Club House, where the matter was considered. The result was that the protests were referred for the future con sideration of the sailing committee. ----- THE PANTOMIME AND EGERIA MATcii.—Nothing was seen of theso ve3sels until the return of the others near the Nore, and it was stated that it was a mere private trial of speed. MR. STANSFELD, M.P., KILLED BY TELEGRAPH. —The New York journals received a telegram a few days ago announcing the death of Mr. J. Stansfeld, M.P. for Halifax.

Detachments of non-commissioned officers and men of the Royal Artillery, 4th and 10th Brigades, Ist battalion of the 15th Regt., 2d battalion of the 22d Regt., 30th Regt., and the Royal Engineers, have been placed under orders to proceed from Chatham, on Thursday next, the 13th inst., and embark for Canada and New Brunswick. The draughts for Canada will embark on board the screw steamer Nestoria, and those for New Brunswick in the St. David. Yesterday a party of non-commissioned officers and men of the Royal Engineers left headquarters, Brompton Barracks, Chatham, to embark on board the screw steamer Tamar, 2,812 tons, 500 horse power, for conveyance to Malta, where they will be employed on the works being executed in connec tion with the defences of that island. By direction of the Field-Marshal Commanding in Chief, Deputy Inspector General H. Hugh Massy, M.D., president of the Army Sanitary Committee, has been engaged the entire week in the sanitary inspection of the barracks occupied by the troops, the hospitals, forts, and other military establishments at Chatham district and garrison, in which duty he has been assisted by the principal officials connected with the various departments. Yesterday Dr. Massy was engaged in the inspection of Chatham barracks, occupied by the corps attached to the Ist and 2d Depot Battalions. Yesterday Major-Gen. J. 0. Travers, C. 8., In spector-General of Royal Marines Light Infantry, attended by Capt. J. M. Lennox, Aide-de-Camp, completed his summer inspection of the Chatham division of Royal Marines Light Infantry, in which duty he had been engaged the greater portion of the week. The portion of the inspection entered upon yesterday was for the purpose of testing the efficiency of the officers of companies in handling their men and exercising them in battalion and company drill. At 11 o'clock a.m. a small battalion of eight com panies was formed on Chatham lines, when the cap tains of companies and the subalterns of the division were selected by Gen. Travers to drill the battalion in different movements. The battalion returned to headquarters at 1 p.m., and the inspection of the division was brought to a close by Major-General Travers in the afternoon with results it is understood exceedingly favourable to the efficiency of both offi cers and men. To-day the Inspector-General is expected to visit and inspect the detachments of Royal Marines at Milton-barracks, undergoing a course of instruction in the use of the Snider rifle, which has been served out to the whole of the non commissioned officers and men of the Royal Marines at Chatham.

The insane asylum at Northampton has 412 pa tients, a greater number than ever before. The hustler and coachman of the institution, reliable iu all respects, fancies himself a wonderful physician and the superinten dent of the asylum, and about twice a week discharges Dr. Earle and all his assistants. A new mill, 140 by 50 feet, and three stories high, will be erected this season at Huntington by the American Quilt Company, an organisation of New York and Boston capitalists, for the manufacture of Marseilles goods.

Sidney Smith, a good authority on this subject, says, "In composing, as a general role, run your peu through every other word you have written ; you have no idea what vigour it will give your style." The same writer says, " All pleasantries should be short, and, for that matter, all gravities too." tuu et j 1 201 too 1
