I b.iught ten in 1817. I had nothing to do with the fun& 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 B:oxam twice. He resided at Bayswater, and had his seat at a broker's. The defendant never told me he did the business through West or Crook. The defendant is not a broker. I wrote to him every day from the country. I never had the prices of the day sent to me. I have written to de fendant on a Sunday; perhaps between churches. No broker's contract was handed in with the document on the 16th of December, nor with the one in January or February. I never saw a broker's contract. Edward i'eter Cooper, the plaintiff, is my brother. lie used to be a manufacturer in Wiltshire. I am not doing any thing now for my livelihool. I am living with my mother in. law. at their mishap. AMATEITR SCULLS, Grand Heat. F. Marsbam (red and whit) T.

(From the Pates and Proceedings of the Souse of Comnumb., and he would postpone his decis;on for the following, reasons :—Fir3t, three of the children bad been ex amined of the tender ages of eight, eleven, and thirteen, whose evidence, when compared with that of the other witnesses, must be e•ximined c.ith caution by the Court. Moreover, in looking over the whole of the proceedings iu this case there were many circumstances which re quired deliberate consideration, independent of those to which he had already referred. The parties would not suffer by the postponement of his judgment. On the part of Mr. - Chesnut, he not paying alimony in conse quence of his being a pauper, could not suffer, neither from the temporary separation from his wife. With re gard to Mrs. Chesnut, she was now under the protec tion of the Court, and he would extend that protection over her ; for these reasons he would postpone his judgment.

SPENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID EIAIR DYE. The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or grey hair, whiskers, Fr,oustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black, without trouble (by 'dimply combing it through the hair), and pro tacos by one application a pleasing and permanent change. While other dyes destroy the hair by their pernicious properties, this liquid promotes its growth, nourishing the roots to the latest neriod of lire. Pe sons who have been deceived by preparations which have a horrible st .tich (1 ingero Its to the head), troublesome in their ap , lication, and unsatisfactory in their colour, will find Spencer's is!hinese Liquid Flair Dye a distinct article, agreeable in every respect, and that " none but itself can he its paraLel."

'Tis strange that such a dream simuld cross my brain, But so it is when poets take Champagne. The dream was this—that I was calmly strolling Inside the Hall, soon atter Rothschild's polling, When, all at once, I halted in my walking, On hearing voices, as of persons talking. So turning round to ascertain the noise, The talkatives, I found, were two big boys. One's name was Magog, and the other's Gog; And this is something of their dialogue : " Neighbour," said Gog, " I think this day's election Has furnish'd us with something worth inspection, And, certainly, this great proceeding closes Much to the credit of the Tailors, MOSES. I did not care for speeches, cheers, or votes, Half what I did for MOSES'S summer Coats. The excitement of the scene will do—but, dang it I The suits of MOSES a:together bang it." " Hear, bear I well done ! that's capital," said Magog, " I quite agree with ev'ry thing you say, Gog. There never were such waistcoats, coats and breeches, Since I and you have occupied these niches." "MOSES & SON," said he, " make dress most stunningly," (And here the little fellow wink'd most cunningly.) " I wonder what their prices are," said Magog, "Their articles have made me rather a-geg.' MOSES & SON would make us look quite slap, What do you say to trying them old chap ?" " I'll go," said Gog, " I want a morning .own, And here's a gentleman will help us down." , 0, dear? (thinks I) I'd rather be excus'd, And my compliance was at once refus'd. So down the giants came, with pond'rous leap, And I awoke and found I'd been asleep. LIST OF PRICES.

THE POTTERS' EMIGRATION SocIETT.—On Wed nesday evening last Mr. Evans, founder of the Petters' Emigration Society, delivered a lecture at Carpenters' Hall. The large and commodious room less well 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 ear 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 - e in e . 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," andtolabregeriqcuhan.in minerals. The third estate, comprising the 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 eveninv. The society appears to be in a progressive and prosperous state, the receipts for the last week being 1221. 17 9 il.—Manchester Examiner. FIRE AT BETIINAL•GREEN.—Last evening, about five o'clock, the inhabitants of Ann-street, Bethnal green-road, were greatly alarm-d in c , nsequsnee of the outbreak of a lire upon the premises in the jeint oecupa tion of Mr. Silverton, a fancy cabinet-maker, and Mr. Taylor, a trimming manufacturer, situate in the above named thoroughfare. The flaw's originated from some cause at present unknown, and so rapidly did they pro gress, that in the space of a few mieutes the whole of Mr. Silverton's stock in trade became ignited, and when the fire genet , aced the roof it ascended so fearfully as to endanger the contiguous property. The mains of the East London Company having yielded en abundant supply of water, the perish engines and firemen set to work most vigorously. but they were utiabir to get the mastery over the conflagration until prop-qty. roughly estimated in value at from 4001. to 500/., had been deatroytA.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, July 10. ;Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Justico DENMAN ant a Common Jury.) COOPER V. BLOXAI4. Mr. Martin, Q.C., and Mr. Bovill appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Watson, Q.C., and Mr.Byland for the defendant. Mr BOVILL, in the absence of Mr. Martin, stated the ease to the jury, and raid 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 s e ct i on o f t h e Act imposed a penalty of 500 L apon any person who should sell any stock of which he was not actually possessed. and then enacwd that i any brok,r or agent should negotiate a contract for the sale of any such stock, knowing that the seller was not actu ally possessed of the same, he should be liable to a Pe :l illy of 1001. for each tffence, o ne h a lf to go to the Qieen and the other half to the person who should sue fur the :amo. The defendant was now sued for having acted as an agent in violation of his sec' ion of ;he Act. The de claration contained s-viral counts, setting out several dis. tinct transactious to a I age amount, which the del', ndant had negotiated tor a parson named the Rev Rol•er. Cooper, the brother of the pr. sent pkit.tiff. ielendant was not a member of • the Stock Exchange, but was one of a elass of pers ms who were called " alliva tons." These p, rsuns exercised their v•lcacion in the sicinity of the Exchange, and, like alligators, they some !flues preyed upon their victim ; but whether the tie iendant was an "alligator" in this sense would be seen by the evidence. The Robert Cooper was a clerk in holy orders, and form--rly held a curacy in Wiltshire, but he had been completely ruined by the course into which the defendant had led him. He had either paid or given security to the defendant to the extent of 4,000/ and had given up his curacy. The friends of the Rev. Mr. Cooper filed a bill in Chancery against the de fendant, the object of which was to mike him disgorge some of the money which he had recuived, and to stop the circulation of certain bills, to the amount of LOON., which Mr. Cooper had accepted. In the bill in Chan cery the defendant was asked when, and from whom he had purchased certain st , ,ck, to which he had answered that his answer would expose him to penalties under the Stock Jobbing Act. He could not, therefore, complain of the present proceedings, which had been instituted by the friends of Mr. Cooper, who felt that he was bound to come into the witness- box and state the whole of the facts. The Rev. Robert Cooper was then examined by Mr. MARTIN—IIe said, in the year 1846 I became acquaiated with the defendant. I was introduced to him by Mr. Youngmichael. The defendant was an agent. He bad the seat of an office at No 6, Spread Eagle-court, near Threadneedle-street. The office belonged to Mr. West, who af!erwards gave 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 office, I believe. I ordered him to sell 60,000/. stock. He left the office, and was absent about ten minutes. On his return he 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 CJoper 60,0001. Consols, at 8 8k, for the 16th of December. " WILLIAM BLOXAM.") On the 24 of January I gave him an order to sell more stock. Th e amount o v a was 20,000/. I had no Con sols. The defendant left the office, and on his return he gave me a c mtract. This is it :—(The paper was then put in and read, as follows: 88 `i . S; or ) 1d t f h o e r t l h 6 o th ß o e f v. Jn o u b l e r r y t :C ‘ o L o o p n e d r o 2 n, o ,0 j 0 1 0 " ! . . C W 1, 0 . n 1 5 13 8 . 0 4 1; ,) ,. t I had no Consols. It was a mere time bargain. I had to pay the diff-renee on the 16th. On the 23d of Ja nuary I gave the defendant an order to buy; that was in his office, or somewhere about. He gave the this paper as the advice note of the buying.—(The bought note for 50,0001. was here read.) Oo the same day I gave him directions to buy 80,000/. '2onaols. The defendant af terwards gave the a memorandum of the difference.- - (The memorandum v.a4 here put. in and read, stating the witness's 1035 to be 6901 155.) No transfer was made of stock. 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, be sought to make the defendant answerable. i i s n Lsuoprpdoshrtipoisatihdetthwaot, counts — op t i h n e io t n h , ir t d h a er n e d w th a e s Lord DENMAN th e n su mm e d u p th e ev id ence to the evidence fourth; and there was also evidence that the defendant was an agent within the meaning of the Act of Par liament. His Lordship rematked, that be 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 omnts, whether the deters la,nt 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, ,nd any thing 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, it was tufficient to convict the re cetver if at the time of receiving the goods he had the conviction that they had been stolen, and they turned out to have ben 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 night be c , ..nvicte , l 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 aultj•ct, hi - Will(' say the defendant was aware of tha.t." rho sufficiency of that evidence, howev,r, wa3 fur the ho could judge frcm all the circumstances whether the defendant must have known that Mr. Cot.per was nut actually possessed of the stuck the sale of which he (the efendatit) had negotiated. The jury then found a verdict far the plaintiff, which a: • to;:iy .ntered in his favour, with a penalty of lON. on the third count, and a penalty to the same atnouut on trio luurth count. This was the last day of the sitting at nisi Arius. July 11. The Court sat this motritug at Westminster, for the pu pose of delivering judgmtnt in several cases which stuod over for consideration. JUDGMENT AT FAULT. Lord DENMAN, at the sitting of the court, said tha► their Lordships had fallen into a mistake in naming this day for the delivery of judgments, the - Act of Parlia ment not giving any authority to the Court to pronounce iudgment unless on those days in the vacation on which Nisi Prius Sittings were held. The intention of the Court, when it named this day for the delivery of judg ments was, that they should take effect if pronounced in last term; but that effect would not, it now appeared, attach to them as a matter of law; and, except by con sent of the parties, they could not take effect as judg ments before next term. The Court would, however, now deliver them, leaving the consideration of the mat ter open to parties for agreement as to whether they should be considered as judgments of last term. THE QUEEN V. THE JUSTICES OF GLOUCESTER. In this case an application had been made to the defendants, magistrates of Gloucester, to make an order of maintenance on the putative father of an ille gitimate child. The application bad been once heard, 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, he party being prepared to offer additional evidence. That, in tact, 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 tavour of parishes against a person charged as the puts jive 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 itiough 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 msndamu' must therefore be made absolute. HALRETT V. THE DIRECTORS OF THE lIERCIIANT TRADING AND SHIPPING ASSOCTATI,N. _ This was an action to recover damages on an in. urance effected on a vessel in the company of which the defendants are .directors, and resulted in a 'verdict for the plaintiffs. Judgment was entered on that verdict for a sum of 1,0741. 16s. 8:1. Exo cation was subsequently issued against the company. of whose body Earl Talbot was a member; and on the , execution failing of being satisfied, a rule was ub tamed 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 Are, and on which he paid a sum of 1751. 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 54,800/. had been proved. To meet those debts, there were only assets to the amount of 8,0001. 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 DENMAN now went over the 'facts of the case, and pronounced that the plaintiff was 'precluded, by the form of his policy, from having recourse against the pro perty of the individuals of the company to satisfy his c:itim. The judgment of the Court, therefore, was, that the rule must be discharged, with costg. BEAUME, BROTHERS, V. RICKETTS. The rule in thi3 case way discharged. JENKINS V. HuTCHINSON. Lord DENMAN delivered judgment i❑ this case. The question at issue was, whether the defendant could be sued, who had signed a charter-party note under sale, as agent, without having authority to bind his prin cipal. The Court was of opinion that the party who exe cuted an instrument in the name of another, he only acting as agent for the other, could not be sued on the instrument, • COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, July 10. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Lord Chief Justice WILDE and a Special Jury.) BARRY v. HILL. This was an action brought by the plaintiff, s 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 Sniith 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 Kinglake, 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 importel 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 t h e di ff erent treaties, he communicated his Information to the defendant's firm, stipulating for one-third of the profits which should arise from the discovery. They avaihd themselves of the information, and ultimately, by the exertions of the plaintiff in their behalf, large profits were realised. The firm then refused to acknowledge 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 c:•rtain periods, and ultimately by a treaty in 1827, continuing it in force until further notice, it was stipu lated aat no higher duties should he levied on the pro duce of the United Sates imported into Enghsod than were levied on the produce or manuFactures of other foreign countries. This was confirmed by subsequent statutes, and remained in force at the time of the agEee mut betty en the pugs'. 13y a statute passed is the fe-A 4th William IV. a duty of 2s. 6d. per bushel was diteefed ohe levied upon rough rice, but if imported f r en A Vritish possession the duty was to be oely per quarter. By a statute of the 6th and 7th William IV. the lower duty was extended to Western Africa ge nerally, whether British possession or not. Mr. Barry, the plaintiff, whose attention had been directed to these matters, discovered that when the last-mentioned statute extended the lower duty to Western Africa generally, the same privilege of th e tr e aty o f 1 815 b e l onge d to t h e United States, and that a duty of Id. per quarter ought to be paid upon rice imported from that country, in stead of 2s. 6d. per bushel,'Svltich was then paid. There were only four houses in England engaged in this par ticular trade—Messrs. Foster and Smith, and Messrs. Ewbanks and Co., of London; and Messrs. Simpson and Co., and the defendants, Messrs. Hill and smith, of Liverpool. The pl a i n tiff d e t erm i ne d to try w h et h er hi s view of the law was correct, and entered into communi cation with Messrs. Foster and Smith, offering to ac quaint them with' a very profitable secret upon certain terms. Tbe negotiation was 'conducted through a gen tleman named Coleman, and' a letter was signed by Messrs. Foster arid Sniitl, agreeing to alloW the plain tiff one-third of the picifits derivable from the.communi cation. A similar agreement was afterwards entered into with Messrs. Ewbanks and Co. The plaintiff then sent his brother with the letters signed by Meisrs. Foster and Smith, 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 profits, if the secret should turn out advantageous.' The 'defendants said they had no objection to the terms proposed. The plaintiff did nott bin at brotherg trhialpeteitt by m byu e t c communicate tehnetehded thate s fe e n cr d e a t nt ,m e atters tti rg o , 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 thi 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 succPeded in obtaining the ad in6sion of rough rice from America upon payment 01 the lower rate of duty upon the deposit of Exchequer bills for the difference, and whien, by the unwearied exertions of the plaintiff, were afterwards given up, arid the personal bonds of tho plaintiff and the defendant were accepted. All these proceedings were from time to time communicated by the plaintiff to the defsnlant, 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 acting as the agent of the defend•int in the negotia ti,n wieh Government. The plaintiff never ceased in his endeavour, with the British Geverument, and, at the ex eitatiou of kix years, after the most untiring activiy end unremitting elo rtions, he ultimately succeeded in obtaining a Treasury minute, dated August 6, 1842, whereby the bonds were ordered to be cancelled w hide had been given to secure the higher duty, and thus the Exchequer-bills for securing the higher duty upon the cargos s already imported by the defendant having been returned, the den ndant found himself a gainer to the extent of about 12,0001.; but although Messrs. Foster and Smith, as was stated, had honourably fulfilled the agreement which they had entered into, the defendant refused to acknowledge the services of the plaintiff. A great number of official witnesses were then called, and a mass of documentary evidence was put in, which concluded the plaintiff's case. Sir FREDERICK MERGER then submitted that there was no case to go to the jury upon the special count, and made several objections, two of which the Learned Judge thought were sustained, viz.:—lbt. That there WAS a variance between the contract laid in the declara tion and the one proved, the promise laid in the declare titn being that the contract should be new to the de fendant, whereas the promise proved was that it should be new to the trade, or at least to Messrs. Ewbanlyand Co. and the defendant. Idly. 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 ani America guaranteeing the im portation of paddy at the low duty, such convention, un confirmed by Act of Parliament, bad not the force of law, and the Custom-house authorities would not be warranted in levying only the lower duty. The Learned Judge was then about to leave the question to the jury upon the common counts for work /hid labour, Bcc.. when the parties intimated that a compromise might be effected, which was then agreed to as follows :—lt 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 take❑ 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 bauco for the delivery of judg ments by consent had been appointed for to-day, but at the usual hour for 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 Judges having also to leave town for a► similar purpose, it was impos sible to form a court. CONSISTORY COURT, July 11. (Before Dr. Lushingtun.) HALL V. HALL. Dr. ADDAMS applied to the Court for a divorce, it being a suit promoted by the wife, Mrs. Georgians [lull, 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 htr family, a Mr. Penstord, when she met with Mr. Hall, and to whom she was clandestinely marri-d ; 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 same chamber as man and wife. Some time after this they a prated, and Mr. Hall afterwards cohabited with a female of the name of datotador, f. r which Mrs. Hall now sought for a di vorce, which he (Dr. Addams) had no doubt but, the Court would grant. Tne Learned JuDGE said he had no hesitation in granting the divorce as pray.d; there appeared no op plsition to tho suit. SAUNDERS v. SAUNDERS. This was an application made to the Court to pro nounce Mr. Saunders, the party in the suit, in con t.-rapt, for not having paid the alimony as arded to Mrs. Saunders. Mr. Saunders appeared in person. He stated his posi tion at the present moment was very diff.-rent to what it was when the alimony was granted to his wife. He said he was ready to obey the order of the Court, but he had lost all his West 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 allowed as alimony, and was for the support of his chil dren, was very improperly disposed or. His son bad been sent to St. Petersburgh fqr.no other object than the waste of his money and his time ; but whatever the Court ordered he would obey its direction. The LEARNED JUDGE said he had no power to alter his previous judgment; whatever was due urvier the head of alimony must be paid; and if Mr. Saunders's circum stances were changed, he must apply to the Court for relief in another form. KING V. KING. This was an application made to the Court for a divorce on the ground of adultery. ,The suit was pro. moted by the Hon. Mr. Robert King against his wife, Mrs. Ann Gore King. for having committed adultery with the Viscount St. John. Drs. Jenner and Bay ford 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. ADDAmssaid 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. vorce. CHESNUT V. CHESNUT. This was a suit promoted by the Rev. Mr. Chesnut, late curate of St. Peter's, Walbro o k, a nd T r i n ity Ch urc h, Newington, against his wife for restitution of conjugal rights. The parties were married on the 4'h 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 early a period as five months after her marriage, and that was continul d until the period of her separation from him in March, 1848. He was in the habit of associating with low and aban doned characters, frequently striking her, and applying offensive terms to her, and, in conclusion, dissipated the while of her handsome fortune, loaving her and her children to beggary; she was, therefore, compelled to reek the protection of the Court, who, he was sure. noald not retwe to grant her the separation from her bushar,d which she now sought. Dr. IlowAap was heard on the part of the reverend gentler:34n. The Learned JUDGE said he had listmed with great atra-ution to the arguments in this very larnyntable case, - - (53 Subs.) Mr. H.

The weather was again delightfully fine, and the an ticipaion of good sport produced, as on the previous d a y, a vast assemblage of spectators, who evidently expe rienced considerable gratification.

Northman then gradually drew the nose ol his boat about a couple of yards in advance of Mar t,h,tu, who, off the committee-barge, gave symptoms of picking him up.

Eddy With a view to encourage emulation amongst parsons of all classes, and to hold out an inducement to provincial crews to enter the Hats at this regatta, it was determined by the committee that crews should be eligible to enter both iu the Champion and this race; the winner of the former of course prohibited; and to compen sate the provincials for any expenses incurred in coming to London, it was further determined that the sums of 151., 101., and 51. should, in addition to the other prizes, he awarded to them, as either first, second, or third, if either occupied those positions at the finish. 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 is 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 thenext few strokes had a foot in advance of the Wandsworth party, and in this order they passed the committee-barge, when the winners went to work in gallant style, shot right ahead, and came in first by a length and shalt in advance, alter a struggle of the must gallant and lasting description.

It is at once surprisin g 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 conserve ' furies, 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 ha, prevailed fur some days. 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 proftssurs, in the clearness and . sim plicity of their discourses, which render - lhekraost recondite hurren 4 popular, and the most abstruse science iffiellrgible even to the child. The surpass ing merit ot Dr. B , chhoff,,er in this resp ec t i s suffietently welt - known to our readers, and it is only those who frt quently attend his lectures that can do justice to the ,asy good humour and temperate gaiety with which he ena niivens the driest subj-cts, and the utluboured eloquence of diction with which be untblds the riches of science to his charmed auditorics. Ills example, and that of his Ike highly gifted coadjutor, Dr. _Ryan, seem to a great degree to influence the several professors who are from time to time associated in the grand objects of the esta blishment. The principal subject of Dr. Baehhoffeer's present series of lectures is the production of artificial ice, and the experiments with which they are illustrated very much Kirpa , s in beauty and interest anything that could be anticipated. The process which the Learned Pro• lessor has to explain is the invention of Mr. Masters, of Reg, nt•streat, confectioner, who is known to the public as a mechanical inventor of great success end ingenuity, of which his knife-cleaning and sharpening apparatus is a very remarkable and useful example. The freezing invention is likely to exceed very far indeed moat Others of the day in its hitherto unthought-of utility, for, as we have heard a philosophic auditor of Professor 13achhoff ner's observe, last evening in the lecture-room, " we may soon expect to see Mr. Masters adapt the principle of these apparatus t) the reduction of temperature in hos pitale, and in the mansions of tropical climates, so that the British East Indian may enjoy at Calcutta the re freshment of his present sanatorium on the lower Himalayas!" 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 globe. But, al though his apparatus was perfectly successful in fact, yet it was found more expensive or less convenient than the application of natural ice to the ordinary purposes of the confectioner, and the butler, and eten of the physician, who seems to have been but little thought of in relation to this subject, until the benevolent genius of Masters included suffering humanity in his inventive contempla tions. Leslie's apparatus never came into use. Natural, or as it is called technically, " rough" ice, continues to be the great refrigerator, and not only temperstmaiw4. southern Europe, but Egypt, India, and even ceive largo and expensive supplies from North A4Pirallit so that the ice trade has been a staple brartelz•of American commerce, which, however, is destined to re ceive at least a check from this important invention ; fur it is demonstrated that four quarts of pure spring water are converted into solid chrystal ice, whilst, 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 productd, 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 purpose 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, exhibits d by Dr. Bachhoffner, are of the most elegant forms, and of no more than the die:hoary bulk of the decanters, basous, jugs, and other ornaments of the table and sideboard. One very beautiful vessel, about the size of the ordinary fumed affixed for a moment to the neck of a decanter, serves to strain and ice instan t ineously the wino poured through it from the bottle. A decanter stand or tray, of elegant fashion and common size, is contrived to keep your wine cool, or cold (it 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 equal.y applicable to the making of butter as ot ice, with an equal saving of labour and expense. Ic;' , creams and water ices are chipped and beaten up while in the act of fret-zing—at the rate of a dessert for 300 persons in twenty minutes—at the cost of-one ,person's attendaucs, and about one halipenny per quart. Yet far more important, although less profitable to the inventor, is the metallic cap, which Dr. Bachhoff.ueri those desperate last night, for spplicati . or l i de t i o , t t h h o ,, h a ead i ,Lt , n tio t of desperate and panful cases in • • ' res o rted to. Ice is not always at hand. The material of DS Osters' freezing mixture is to be had at ever y etiemi,e4, fi nd every chemist, apothecary, and physician should ha provided with Masters' refrigerating head-piece, whit:, our space precludes us from more fully describing. Much greater good than at first sight appears will doubtless result from an ex.teneltd ap plication of these itivention. FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT AT NEWIIARKET.—A most dreadful accident occurred here on Tuesday afternoon to Miss Julia Marson, by which it is feared the life of that tnost umiahle young lady will be sacrificed. Mrs. Marson was superintending the malting of some preserves, when Miss Marson entered the kitchen to speak to her mother. She went close to the fire, and having on a muslin dress, it is supposed a gush of air carried it near the bars. In one instant she was in a sheet of fire. Mr. Manson ran down from his bedroom ou hearing the dreadful screams, and a Mr. Blyth, who had just left the house, and was not more than a hundred 3 ards 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. Sur gical assistance was immediately sent fur and the Jody put to bed. On removing the ashes that adhered to her, it was discovered that the only part on which any skim remained on the b my was where the stays had protected that the body is not it, the remainder was one mass of burned flesh.
