KEARNS STORKES. This was an aetion brought by the plaintiff, an elderly ladj, against the defendant, one of the sons of the late Sergeant Storkes, for compensation for illegal detention in a lunatic asylum. The plaintiff wont to France with Sergeant Stoikes and his family, and some disagreements having arisen between herself and the sergeant's sons it was alleged that she was a lunatic, and she was accordingly placed under restraint. She protested against the procefuliugs, and ultimately she was released. She now sought to recover ample and sub stautial damages for such treatment. The plaintiff's examination had not terminated when our report left and the case is not likely to conclude to-day. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Before Air. Baron Martin.) BUCKLE Y. MIDLAND RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action brought to recover the value of a horse which the plaintiff alleged he lost in consequence of the defendam's carelessness. The accident to the horse occurred in Belsize-lane, where the company have a tramway across the road, and it was crossing this at nine o'clock ono evening that the horse stumbled, and received such injuries that it died a short time after. The plaintiff alleged and called four witnesses to prove that the road was in a highly dangerous condition previous to the accdent, after which it was repaired. A veterinary sur geon was examined as to the value of the horse, which he thought would be abOut £l2. He, however, ad mitted in cross-examination that he did not look at the horse's mouth when ho first saw it after the accident, but he was quite certain the horse was aged from its general appearance. The animal died from inflammation, but there was nothing inconsistent with death from natural causes. iMr. Huddleston, Q.C., appeared for the company, and said he should call witnesses to prove that the road was not in a bad condition, and the accident was not to bo attributed to any waut of caution on the part of •the railway company, as they had parties placed at the spot night and day to guard the public against accidents arising from the passing of a locomotive at frequent period° over the= tramway. He also said the value of the horse was much exaggerated. The evidence was veil) , conflicting, and from the pro gress made in the cause it seemed likely to occupy the court until the hour of rising. CRIMINAL corßp—This Day. OLD. COURT. (Beforo Mr. Justice Blackburn). THE CHARGE OF SCUTTLING THE SHIP SEVERN. The trial of the four prisoners charged with scuttling the ship Severn with intent to defraud various insurance companies was resumed this morning. The case for the prosecution having closed, the remainder of the day was occupied by Mr. Sleigh addressing the jury for the pri soner Webb. The verdict is not expected before Tuesday morning. POLICE INTELLIGErTCE.--This Day. - THAMES. ATJDACIOUS ROBBERY BY A SERVANT GlRL.—Julia Ryan, an Irish girl, aged 17, was charged with stealing a variety of property belonging to Mr. William Rayner, the land lord of the Lord Campbell public-house in Campbell-road, Bow, and Mrs. Mary Vincent, his mother-in-law. The prisoner had been in the service of Mr. Rayner for a fortnight only, and her general conduct had been so bad, and so many articles were missing, that Mrs. Vincent, a widow, on behalf of her son-in-law, gave her notice to quit yesterday. As the hour for her departure approached she became very uneasy, and appeared to increase in bulk. Mrs. Vincent missed other property to a considerable amount, and sent for a police constable named Nicholls, 430 K, who took her into custody. On the way to the station-house the prisoner gave up eight foreign coins, two handkerchiefs, a piece of lace, and a pair of scissors, all being the property of Mrs. Rayner. She was searched at the station-house by Matilda Fountain, the wife of a police-constable, to whom she represented that she was in the familyway. Mrs. Fountain immediately delivered her of two shawls, four pairs of stockings, a pair of boots, a shirt, a child's frock, three pieces of calico, a flannel bag, and a piece of sheeting, all fastened round her waist under her petticoats by a piece of string. All the property was identified by Mrs. Vincent, and she valued the various articles at £5. The prisoner offered no defence, and said she was guilty. The magistrate said the prisoner was a most audacious thief to have stolen property valued at £5 in one day, be sides the property she had stolen at other times. lie com mitted her for trial.

There had been a great deal said about conferring the elective fran chise upon the working classes. For several reasons he had approved and supported the reduction of the franchise, and be saw no reason whatever to regret the course which he had taken. Lord Grey, who had well considered the question, said with regard to the direct representation in Parliament of the working classes, that they should be enabled to send a limited number of members who should directly represent them in the House. When such words came from so high an authority as Lord Grey, he (Sir Robert Peel) thought they deserved the most serious con sideration of the Government. Whatever scheme of Re form might be brought forward, they would find him always bearing in mind the great importance of the working s a a Ho was glad to see that the r ti middle ' were taking a more lively aircnl andsse s e classes country Ho interest than hitherto in the improvement of their social and political condition. The income of the working classes was very large, and therefore it was very import ant that they should be fairly and fully represented in th• House of emulous, THE SEINE STEAMER. SOUTHAMPTON, Saturday Morning. The passengers and crew of the West India mail steamer Seine, who have been transferred to the Parana and 2Eola at the Motherbank, are to be released from quarantine to-day, an order to that effect having been received from the Privy Council, provided all are well on board after a 24-hours' quarantine of observation fron the transfer, which took place yesterday. They were expected to land in the docks about 1 o'clock to-day. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Feb. 1. Great interest is felt about the appointment of the Provost of Trinity College. The position is one involving deeper interests than the appointment of a bishop, as it may affect the higher education of the country, as well as the character of the Irish Church for many years. There are two names before the public in connexion with the vacancy. Dr. Lloyd, the Vice-Provost, and Dr. Todd, on whose behalf it is said a pressure is being put upon the Govern ment by very influential personal friends. The Daily Express, which is devoted alike to the inte rests of the University, the Church, and the present Government, freely canvasses the claims of these two gentlemen. and most earnestly deprecates the appointment of Dr. Todd. It is admitted that he is an eminent and a learned man, as well as a good writer. But he is regarded as too much of an anti quary, too mediaeval in his tastes, too priestly in his spirit, " well known to belong to the most extreme section of the High Church party among the Irish clergy." Now, the Provost is the head of the Di vinity School, and has absolute control over the services in the College Chapel, at which the students are compelled to attend. On this ground, it is affirmed,' the appointment of Dr. Todd would be in defensible, " A heavy blow both to the Church And the University." In fact, the authorizing of Ritual ism in the Dublin University would be nothing short of a national calamity. It would never do in this age to attempt to convert it into a semi-monastic institution. Lord Rosse, the Chancellor of the University, is decidedly in favour of the Vice-Provost. He has ascertained the feelings of the Fellows on the sub ject, and found that they are unanimous for him, with the exception of a single junior Fellow, who was a former pupil of Dr. Todd, and wishes to take no part in the matter. Perhaps the contrast be tween the two candidates could not be better ex pressed than by saying that Dr. Todd would be at home in the Presidential chair of the Royal Irish Academy, and Dr. Lloyd in the chair of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. The University has special claims upon Lord Derby's Government, which it would be ungrateful as well as imprudent to disregard. These claims the Daily Express urges with much force : The appointment of the Provost is a trust reposed in it to be exercised for the benefit of the University, the Church, and the nation at large. No Government would venture to do an act which would proclaim to the world that public interests are sacrificed to private friendship and importu nity. Still less conceivable would such a sacrifice be when the University of Dublin is the N;Ctilll to whose throat a Conservative Government is asked to apply a sacrificial knife. To no constituency in the United Kingdom is Lord Derby more deeply indebted than to the University of Dublin..lt is of 'sal impoi;:ance to the conducting of the business` of the nation that the chief law officers of the Crown should have seats in Parliament. At the risk of being called a nomination borough, Trinity College has never refused to return the candidate in whose election the Government were interested. She elected Mr. Walsh with out opposition, and is ready to return the Solicitor-Gene ral. Her Chancellor and her Fellows now unanimously ex press the modest desire that they should have as their pro vost the man who is at once their brightest ornament and, in academic standing, at the head of the university. A very little inquiry will suffice to satisfy the Govelament that the opinion of the governing body is endorsed by the university at large. If it be disregarded, with what face could the Solicitor-General present himself at the hustings to obtain a favour, in return for which the Government, of which he is an officer, had refused to acknowledge a posi tive right ? Deputations from the committee of the conference of Irish railway directors, and from the 11Iausign house and corporate bodies of Treland, waited on his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant at the Castle yes terday, for the purpose of presenting meniorials to him on the subject of It9ll railway reform. The deputation of railway directors was received by his Excellency iu the Pre3ence Chamber. _ _ _ The Attorney-General was present with the Lord Lieutenant. The Lord Mayor, after some intro ductory remarks, read the memorial, from which I quote the following : It appears that the capital in lt:sh railways on the 31st of December, 1865, was £26,395,100, and the net receipts, After payment of the working expenses, .f . . 927,147, or at the rate of £3 10s. per cent. The working expene‘:.! might be materially reduced by amalgamation, and a large redut;:ion might be made in the rates and fares with as fair a prospect of repayment as in Belgium. They desire particularly to call your Excellency's attention to the fact that the Impe rial Government has sanctioned important encouragement for the construction of railways in India and Canada, and they respectfully submit that the peculiar disadvan tages which Ireland has had to contend against, and from the effects of which she is still suffering, entitle her to as much consideration for the development . of her resources as has bean shown for the distant portions of the empire. In conclusion, your memorialists most respectfully urge on your Excellency that the severe losses which Ireland has sustained by the famine, the slow adaptation of agriculture to the altered condition of the country, the absence of mineral wealth and of extensive manufacture; and the smaller means of the people, entitle her to government con sideration. They earnestly trust that your lordship w"1 recommend the Government you represent to introduce measures into Parliament for the purchase of the Irish rail ways, and, by thus promoting its improvement, strengthen the ties which unite the separate but component parts of this groat empire. Similar memorials were also presented' on behalf of the municipal bodies of the leading towns in Ireland. His Excellency, in reply, stated that the Government were fully aware of the great import ance of the question, and had already given the subject their most serious consideration. Some little delay, however, consequent upon tile issuing of the report of the Royal Commissioners, might arise before the a:Wenn:tent could give a definite expression of opinion on the matter; but he trusted that that report, when it did appear, would be in favour of some action being taken. As far as he'was himself concerned, the deputation might be assured that he would give the MOVerriettt every - reasonable support iii•arging upon the Lords of the Treasury the importance , of railway reform in Ireland. The Attorney-General, who was in attendance on. his Excellency, in the absence of Lord Naas, Chief Sec _ • retary for Ireland, stated to the deputation that the Irish Executive, from the Lord-Lieutenant to the most subordinate member, were unanimous in re- commending in every way the carrying out of the wiiihes suggested in the memorial. The deputation then withdrew. The Cork Herald mentions the names of several possible candidates for the vacancy which has been created in the representation of the county by the death of Mr. G. R. Barry, M.P.. We quote a few of them :---Mr. Isaac Butt, Capt. Smith Barry, Mr. Pope Hennessy, Mr. V. Scully, and Mr. H. L. Puxley. DUBLIN, Friday Evening. An inquest was held to-day at 16, Middle Gar diner-street, on the body of Mrs. J. Scott, a young married lady, who killed herself yesterday morning by falling from her bedroom window, on the third floor, into the street area. She had previously at tempted to poison herself with laudanum, to avoid singing at an amateur concert. Dr. Beatty deposed that she was of unsound mind. Verdict accordingly. THE PLACE FOR SPORTSMEN.—WiId game has always been found in abundance in the vicinity of Napa, but the present season surpasses any that has gone before since the flood—the flood of 1862. Geese, brauts, and honkers ara seen in untold numbers on the foothills in the neighbourhood of Cameras, covering hundreds and hundreds of acres, and their gabbling can be heard for miles and miles around. Ducks are so numerous that in their flight overhead during the night they entirely obscure the moon and stars, and the noise produced by their wings sounds like " the rushing of mighty winds." Hundreds are killed by night hunters, and leaving the henroosts in disgust, the fox and the coon alike lick their chops in the anticipation of their night's feast, and proceeding to the tube swamps, "lay low for black ducks." Quail now go in flocks on account of their numbers, and will no doubt continue to do so until spring. Hares are many, and their ears are longer than usual. All other small game in like proportion.—San Francisco paint. 3.2.0 18.18.9 ;35.15.6 4 9-16 12 I I I 261 1 5 4; 86} I 84j } 4 2.1.0 29i 2.1.1.(5 31 2.14.0 8.3.6 3.0.0 all ()M.() 14.9.fi 584 5.17.0 SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Specula tion was, however, confined to the races of the day, no thing being done on future events. The fields were bad in each instance, and the contests wore devoid of interest, each race being won easily. in the Steeplechase Crusade fell, after going a mile and a half. The Rogue blundered, nearly coming on his head, and causing Kuott to break his stirrup-leather, the jockey riding the remainder of the race with one iron.
