" The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers,' and Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book could find its way into the hands of those who stiffer from the com plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied thatmany hundreds would be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of less Importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize— much money... ... This volume is well qualified to put an end to the empirical system of treating Spermatorrhesa, and to place the treat ment upon a more rational and physiological basis.

This was an action for breach of dramatic copyrigh, The declaration alleged that the plaintiffs were the pro• prietors of a dramatic piece called Old and Young Joe; and that on 17 different occasions the defendant had caused certain parts of it to be represented without the permission of the plaintiffs, and had thereby forfeited 40s. for each representation. The defendant pleaded not guilty, and that the plain tiffs were not the sole proprietors. Mr. Serjeant Byles and Mr. Russell were counsel for the plaintiffs ; and Mr. Warren, Q.C., and Mr. Hawkins for the defendant. The plaintiffs are lessees of the Surrey Theatre. The defendant is the proprietor of the Grecian Saloon, City road. Mr. Shepherd, the plaintiff, deposed that pre violisly to the year 1852 an author, named Courtney, was employed by them to write and adapt pieces for the stage, and in that year was sent by them, and at their expense, to Paris, to procure materials for adaptation. Upon his return he produced a piece, adapted from the French, which he entitled Old Joe and Young Joe, for which _they paid him 41. Previously to this Courtney had entered into a written engagement with them upon the occasion of his writing a piece called Lizzie Lee, that that piece, and all his subsequent productions purchased by them, should be their sole property in London, Court. ney reserving the property in it in respect of country representations. This agreement, which was in the shape of a letter, he had mislaid; and was unable to produce. Old Joe and Young Joe 'was produced at the Surrey Theatre in October, 1853. On the 15th November, 1854, Courtneyentered into another agreement in writing with them, that all dramas written by him up to that date, with certain exceptions therein mentioned, should be their property. On the other hand, Courtney, though called as a witness for the plaintiffs, in consequence of the difficulty arising - from the non-production of the original agreement, swore that that agreement related to Lizzie Lee and previous works only, and was not an agreement in prospectu. He also denied that he went to Paris at the expense of the plaintiffs, or that he was then in their employment by the receipt of wages. It was admitted on the part of the defendant that the piece in question had been performed 17 times at the Grecian Saloon Mr. Warren then addressed the jury for the defendant, who claimed the right of representing the piece by the written authority of the author, Courtney, and put in evidence a document, bearing date the 24th July, 1854, whereby, in consideration of 41. paid to him by the de fendant, Courtney assigned to the defendant the sole right of representing Old Joe and Young Joe, at the Grecian Saloon, or at any place within a mile thereof. Mr. Serjeant Ryles, in replying upon this evidence, contended that if Courtney procured the piece for the plaintiffs in Paris, when sent thera for the purpose by thorn, and at their expense, it was their, property, and Courtney had no power to assign it to the defendant. The Lord Chief Justice told the jury that there was a conflict of evidence, not between the plaintiff (Mr. Shep herd) and Courtney, his own witness, and as respected the original agreement, left it to the jury to decide be tween them. With respect to the other point, his lord ship said that if the jury thought Courtney had been sent by the plaintiffs to Paris, and had been employed by them to write or adapt the piece for them, he thought that gave them copyright in the representation of the piece, and they were entitled to recover. If they thought otherwise their verdict should'be for the defendant. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs ; and, in answer to the Lord Chief Justice, said they thought Courtney had been sent to Paris at the plaintiffs' ex pense, and had adapted the pieca for them. Verdict for the plaintiffs.

NEW COURT. (Before the Recorder.) THE CASE OF C. W. BEVAN. ( Continued from, our impression of yesterday. ) The first witness called was Mr. Stephen Cracknell, one of the directors, who, in addition to confirming the particulars entered into by the learned counsel, stated that when he called upon the prisoner to produce the vouchers from the Home Counties, prisoner said be had them, and sent the messenger down to fetch the book, but ultimately admitted that he had not got them, as there was a question of account between him and the company. Mr. Mills, a gentleman acting as secretary to the Home Counties office, was called, to prove the transac tion relative to the re-assurance of the policies, and said that when the prisoner paid him for the four, he asked him to let, him Nave the other two without paying the premiums upon them. Witness did so, and had much trouble to get them back. Prisoner owed him a private debt of some amount, which he piid with the cheque for 2011.1.75. 6d., and it was only by threatening to keep the balance that prisoner returned the vouchers. Prisoner came and paid the premium upon the remaining vouchers upon the day the directors had written to the Home Counties office about them. This witness admitted, in cro9s-examination, that there had been‘money transac tions between him and the prisoner, but not in any way connected with the present case. Witness was fond of sporting, and had sold prisoner two hones. Witness had written some works upon sporting, but was not a racing prophet ; neither was he the "Joe Muggins's Dog," of one of the sporting Sunday papers. The remainder of the evide 7ce, which was of a very lengthy and complicated character, went to prove that the manager of the Birmingham branch, having paid ever to the prisoner, upon the 16th of June, the sum of 1001. from a person naned Danks, the pisoner, instead of paying that over to the company, had used that money to pay for the offices at Birmingham, and had given to the person from whom he received it a receipt dated a month in advance. The prisoner had, it ap peared, after giving his word that he would not do any thing to cast any discredit upon the Deposit and General Life Assurance Company, put an advertisement into the Times reflecting upon it, and the result was that one of the directors had requested him to• put in a counter ad vertisement; but this he had not done, being, when re quested so to do, the secretary of the new company. From the general tenor of the answers given in the cross examination it appeared that the board directors bad been negligent in inspecting the affairs of the company, and seemed to have trusted nearly all to the prisoner without over:ooking him. Some statements having been made by prisoner rela tive to Lord Drumlanrig, the chairman of the company, his lordship was examined, and said—l once had from prisoner a cheque for 751., either in August or July, 1853, as director's fees. Ido not recollect sending from Limmer's Hotel for a cheque for 801. I have lent the company 300/. ; that was, I think, when I was in Scot land. Mr. Parry then addressed the jury for the defence, and in a most forcible and pointed manner argued that the prisoner's defalcations were not of a criminal cha racter, an implied authority having been given him to deal with the moneys of the company as his own. That it had not been shown that he had not paid the accounts required, although not at the actual time; again, the directors had, by their subsequent conduct, treated the defalcations in a way that showed they did not view them as criminal ; and but that the prisoner had become a rival to them, and made a claim upon them, this most malicious prosecution would not have been thought of. The Recorder, in summing up, pointed out to the jury the law of the case. The jury having been absent a short time returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Mr. Sleigh applied that prisoner might be let out on bail to surrender to meet the other charges when pre ferred. The Recorder said he saw nothing in the case to cause him to depart from the general rule. The charge was a very proper one to be brought forward, and prisoner mu,t be kept in custody until the prosecutors had time to consider if they should proceed with the other charges. The case lasted from the sitting of the court until past 8 o'clock. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. LAMBETH.—Susan Robinson and Ann May, middle sged females of gipsy-like appearance, were placed at the Ear before the Hon. G. O. Norton on the following du arge. Ann Aldis, servant to a gentleman named Preston, residing in Grove-road, Brixton, deposed that about five months ago, the prisoner Robinson called at her master's house with seine lace for sale, and having represented that she was in very great distress, she (witness) give her a small quantity of tea (about an ounce), and some cold mutton and bread. On Monday last she called again, and said that she had been taken up for the tea witness bad given her, and sent to prison for two months for having it in her posses sion. She also said that she had concealed the name of the person from whom she got it, but unless the (witness) made up the Si. she had to pay to her, she shoild not suffer for her any longer, but would give up her name, and she should be then had up for the tea, and then the whole thing must come to her inakter's knowledge. Witness told her, that the tea was her own, and she had a right to give it away if she thought *per ; upon which the prisoner observed "bat the mutton and bread was not." Witness feeling alarmed lest her mistress, who was a very nervous lady, sbculd hear the prisoner, went up stairs and brought the prisoner down two half crowns, and on handing them to her the prisoner exclaimed " Oh ! my God, is this all you are going to give me ?" and began to cry, and make a great noise. Witness fearing her master would hear her, , went up stairs again, and brought down another half crown, which she gave her. She then went away, say ing she would call on the Tuesday evening, when she must have some more money, as she must have the Si. ---adv by eight o'clock on that evening. She did not Tuesday, but on Wednesday evening a man, -sgejf to be her husband, called at her said his wife -- w - oijd esil on Lao _ 'ne her, who represented tau... master's house, and asking .-- ' o'clock the prisoner call shortly after. At about seven • -to g i ve __ her, called, and witness having no more money ~.. ~, co3, handed her 9 f shawl, a pair of star, and fr soyinph_ . IPRICE sn. and though she expressed dissatisfaction at not receiving money, she went off. Mr.Norton—What did the second prisoner do Witness—She merrily stood nearly opposite my mas ter's house with the child Robinson now has in her arms, and on leaving the house Robinson joined her. Mr. Norton—l suppose the prisoner's threat amounted to this, that unless you gave her 51. she would have you apprehended for stealing the tea and other things you gave her from your roaster ? - Witness—Yes, sir, that was it ; and she said that if I was taken up my master would know it. Mr. Norton—And in consequence of these threats you gave her the 7s. 6d. and the articles you mentioned ? Witness—Yes, sir. I was so alarmed that I scarcely knew what I did. Mr. Norton—Has the prisoner Robinson ever offered to tell you your fortune ? Witness—No, sir, never. Police-constable 61 P said that while on duty in the Grove-road, Brixton, on the preceding evening ho saw the prisoner Rohinson come from the house of Mr. Brie. cow and join her companion, who held her chill. He asked her what she did at the house, and she replied that she merely went there to beg. Observing something bulky under her arm he approached to take her into custody, and she instantly dropped the pair of stays and gown piece subsequently owned by the last witness. The prisoner Robinson, in reply to the charge, said the articles arid the money had been given to her volun tarily by the young woman Aldis ; and May said she happened to pass the house at the time, and, at the re quest of Robinson, she merely held her child while she went in. The constable contradicted the'statement of May, and said he had frequently seen her in the company of Ro binson. Mr. Norton said that the offence was not only of a most serious but scandalous character, and much feared that it was one that had- been carried on to a consider able extent. He then remanded the prisoners. „, WORSHIP-STREET. —Anne Williams was brought up on remand before Mr. D'Eyncourt,stipon a charge of hocussing and robbing Mr. Isaac Brown, a fringe manu facturer, in Bethnal-green. The prosecutor stated that between ■even and eight o'clock on the morning of Wednesday se'nnight, he en tered a public-house in Holywell-lane, Shoreditch, and called for a glass of pale ale, at which time he observed a number of low characters of both sexes standing on either side of him in front of the bar. As soon as the liquor was placed before him, he was induced to turn his head on bearing a sudden exclamation, which was evi dently intended to divert his attention, but he drank the ale immediately afterwards, and the instant he had swallowed it he became perfectly stupified, and he had not the slightest recollection of anything that subse quently occurred until the lapse of several hours, when he found himself in bed at his own house in a state of extreme stupor and exhaustion, and discovered that he had been robbed of about 4/. in gold and silver, together with his gold signet ring, pencil case, and watch and guard, the latter of which articles was now produced by the police. The prisoner was again remanded. ANAPA, TAGANROG, AND MARIOUPOL. Anapa the last is also in every sense the most important of the towns and fortresses on the litto ral of the Black Sea, abandoned by Russia since the commencement of this war. The town, situ ate on the north-east coast of the Euxine, at the northern termination of the Caucasian range, 47 miles south-east of Yenikale, is inhabited by a miscellaneous population of Circassians, Tartars, Greeks, Jews, Armenians, Russians, and others, to the number of about five thousand. The adverse relations of its masters with the tribes inhabit ing the mountain country in its rear have al most neutralised the great advantages offered by its situation, and p reven t e d it s growth. Its exports are at present grain, tallow, butter, hides, peltries, wax, &c. It is, however, as a military post that it has been most prized by Russia, most deplored by Turkey,. The fort, built by the Turks in 1784, was taken by the Russians in 1791 and in 1807, and only given up with the greatest reluctance. In May, 'lB2B, a detached Russian corps, assisted .by the fleet, and commanded by the redoubtable Menschikoff, laid siege to Anapa, and with great difficulty surrounded the place with a long line of circumvallation, inter secting the neck of land 'on which Anapa is ,itu ated, and extending on each side to the sea. In a few days the works were advanced to the glacis, and three breaches hiving been made, the gc,vernor was summoned to surrender. The garrison had consisted of three thousand men ; they had de fended the fort for forty days ; Navarino had de stroyed the fleet which might have brought them relief, and nothing remained but to surrender. Upon the conclusion of this war Anapa was not restored; at the peace of Adrianople it was ceded to Russia, with all tho coast towns and forts, from the Kouban to Fort St. Nicholas. The name of this last fort will be remembered (although its Turkish denomination of Shaf:katil is, perhaps, better known) as having been taken by the Turks at the opening of last year's Asiatic campaign. Anapa, at the other extremity of the coast line, closes the list. At any other time the transfer of this military position from the Russians to the Cir cassia.no-the most vigorous and constant of their enemies—might have been deemed art event of con siderable importance, but its evacuation at the pre sent moment is peculiarly interesting as a sign M the severe pressure under which the power of Rus sia is visibly collapsing. The Guide Maritime dans la Mer d'Azoff gives the following details of Taganrog, against which the successful expedition has just taken place : " The greatest depth of the basin of Taganrog, si• tuate very nearly at the bottom of the gulf of the Don, is 10, 11, and 16 feet from the channel of the Pereve loki, in a south-west direction to the extremity of the Petrouchina bank. The soundings given here are, all those of the Don, almost fictitious, as the land-winds reduce them considerably, and in some places down t) zero. Every sort of vessel lies during that period embedded in the mud, and occasionally for a ong time. The port owes its foundation to Peter the Great. Even in his time the diminution of the waters of the Sea of Azoff was remarked, and the pre sent site of Taganrog was chosen on the declivity of a promontory or cape, in the hope that a sufficient anchorage should always be found. The new port ac quired at its commencement some commercial import ance, but its disadvantages RCM became apparent. The Don, which empties itself with impetuosity at the bot tom of the gulf, drags down with it the sands which the south winds heap up on the coast, and it is owing to this that the water is so shallow near Taganrog and in all its basin, It has been before observedpoforthose h inosetoe tthatw Seao a s.

Of Marioupol it says, that "It is a place of much commercial activity. In it is gathered the grain brought from the interior, and taken by Genoese merchantmen, who have not forgosten this route, which was so well known to their ancestors, and where the Genoese flag was at one time so powerful. Beyond Marioupol the coast, bordered with cliffs, run 94 miles to the south-west and terminates at Cape Bie lossrai, at the foot of which is formed a tongue of sand, seven miles in extent, to the south-west, curving towards the west. There are 14 feet of water at about a mile from the shore, from Marioupol to Cape Bielosarai. The same bottom is foand the whole length of the tongue at half a mile from its eastern shore. It changes to the south-west of the lighthouse and successively throughout the whole western part, when only 14 feet are found at two miles from land. From the north-west of the light house along the coast which runs towards the west sea gets deeper, and at a mile it is 16 feet." Mn. ROEBUCK'S COMMITTEE ON THE ABM BEFORE SEBABToPoL.—The committee assembled yesterday, for the 49th time, for the purpose of still further consider ing their report. All the members were present at 12 o'clock with the exception of Col. Lindsay, who did not arrive until some time afterwards. They sat until 4 o'clock, not then baying agreed to their report. In con sequence of Mr.- Layard having to prepare for his mo tion in the House of Commons t o - n i ght, the committee again adjourned until Monday next. - "Monsieur le Ministre,—l have already informed your Excellency of the operations which threw open to the allied fleets the entrance to the Sea of- Azoff, and the first results obtained by the allied squadron, which Commanders Beral de Sedaiges, of the Lucifer, and Lyons, of the Miranda, were ordered to take as far as Berdiansk. To-day I send your Excellency some more circum stantial details. It was advisable not to allow the enemy, whose works had been forcibly interrupted by the winter, time to com plete the defence of the peninsula by new works. The assistance of a body of troops was indispensable, if not to force the passes of Kertch and Yenikale, at least to make sure that, when our cruisers had passed them, they should not find them closed behind. Now that we have been enthled to examine more minutely the obstacles accu mulated by the enemy at the entrance of the Sea of Azoff, and those that were preparing against us, Admiral Lyons and myself congratulate ourselves doubly on having insured the success of the expedition by de manding the aid of a division of the Army. The material daniatre already done to the enemy, the embarrassment that he must necessarily shortly experience from the de struction of immense stores c.f provisions destined for his army in the Crimea, the moral effect of a new invasion carried to the banks of the Don and to the shores of the Putrid Sea, all demonstrate the importance of this expe dition. D,sp , t e the interest the Commander-in-Chief them selves attached to it, it was only in the first days of Apr] that the execution of the plan could be seriously thought of. During th's time the project had been care fully studied. Admiral Lyons had received the most precise reports from his cm , iainq, and the-commander of the Fulton, Lieutenant Le Brig: who had been cruising offKertch since February, had also provided me with details respecting the defences of the straits, the facili ties offered by the coast for a landing, and the strength of the Russians in the peninsula which made me enter-) tain no doubt of the success of the operation, provided it could be done promptly and with secrecy. On the 20th of May it was agreed upon between the Commanders-in-Chief and tl,e Admirals that an expedi tionary corps, consisting of 7.000 French and three bat teries, under the orders of General D'Auternarre ; of 3,000 English and one battery, und errrier fr al mn Brown ome;: of 5,000 Turks. and a battery borrowed Pasha's army, ehould embark on board the squadrons and ba conveyed immediately to Kertch. On the even ing of the 22d the troops, artillery, and materiel em barked on board the vessels appointed to receive them. The French squadron consisted of the following ves sels The Montebello. Captain Bassiere, in which I hoisted my flag ; the Napoleon, with the flag of Rear-Admiral Charner • and the Charlemagne. Steam-frigates—Pomone, Caflarelli, Mogador, Cacique, Descartes, Asmodee, and Ulloa. . Steam-corvettes—Veloco, Primauguet, Phl6gethon, Berthollet, Roland, and Caton. Steam-sloops—Lucifer, Megbre, Milan, Brandon Ful ton, and Dauphin. Bombarde Vapeur (steam mortar-boat)—Le Vautour. The staff of the army had added to the expedition, for their particular service, the steamer Egyptian and two sailing vessels. They had, moreover, placed at our dis posal, to tow the barges to the shore, one of the steam tugs of Port`liamiesch, the Beicos. The command of the beach was intrusted to M. Gio vannetti, one of the officers of my staff. The steam-frigates Cacique, Descartes, and Ulloa car ried three batteries of artillery ; the Asmodde conveyed the horses of those batteries which could not find plaoe on board the other frigates. The mules and materiel of the ambulance, as also the reserve ammunition, were placed on board the Caffarelli. Eizht barges, each catable of containing a gun har us seed with gun-carriage, were placed on board the ships and on the poop of the Pomone, for the landing of the troops, and especially for the landing of the artillery. On board the steam despatch boats, whose small draught of water allowed them to approach within a short distance of the shore, were embarked the sth and 14th battalions of Chasseurs•a-pied ; the 19th and 26th Regiments of the Line were embarked on board the frigates and steam-corvettes. The 74th and 39th Regiments, which, with the 14th battalion of Chasseurs, formed the second brigade, were conveyed by the three men-of-war and by the Pomone. Every arrangement was made beforehand for landing simultaneously at least 3,000 infantry, which were to be promptly supported by three pieces of artillery and a section of a rocket battery. _ On the 24th of May, at daybreak, the two squadrons were united at the appointed rendezvous 12 miles south of Cape Takli. The barges and boats for the disembarka tion t4e;-e lowered, the ships of the line cast anchor in about six fathoms, the other steamers formed a line of escort, and steered towards the bay which forms the lower point of Karniesch. The light bteatners.ca4 anchor at hom four to five cable lengths from the shore, the cor vettes and frigates as rear as the depth of water per mitted. At 1 o'clock in th formed around the I. General D'Autecoa, ,f.ernoon the boats full of troops ge hearing the distinctive signal of Some Russian horsemen had appeared on the lie guts, but a few shells from the Eng fish vesiel.s and from the Megere sufficed to disperse them. If the enemy had assembled troops to oppose the landing it ww evident they dared not appear in the plain, which could be swept by the guns of our vessels, and that they would remain beyond the range of our artillery. The signal to advance was given to the boats, and a few moments afterwards the two battali,ifis of Chasseurs landed on the beach, to the shout of " Vive l'Empereur," and formed in columns to climb the heights. The English troops, who landed at the same moment as ours, took up a position on the left, and immediately advanced. During this time the Dauphin, Caton, Lucifer, and Milan, went to take the troops of the 2d Brigade from the men-of-war and Pomone. At half-past three the whole of the infantry was landed, and the disembarka tion of the artillery and horses was going on actively. We were aware that the enemy had established a bat tery of 26 guns of heavy calibre on Cape St. Paul, and another battery of three guns on Cape Ak-Bournon. These batteries were not the only obstacles which the Russians had intended opposing to the vessels that might attempt to force the passage of Cape St. Paul ; a great number of vessels had been sunk in the passage. Vs persed by currents and the melting of the ice, these yes eels formed so many ads not indicated by th e lead, and of the position of which we were completely ignorant. The enemy had, moreover, sunk explosive machines (bowl:es). We found sores of them in the Kertch arse nal, which we were enabled to examine at leisure. A triple brass wire, covered with a gutta'ercha wrapper, placed them in communication with an electric battery in the battery of Cape St. Paul. It would have been easy to explode these submarine petards when our vessels were within the straits, and the effect would have been decisive, if the explosion took place at the proper moment. Although we knew very little of these details still we expected to meet at the passage of Cape St. Paul with a resistance in proportion to the considerable efforts made by the enemy for its defence • but we relied to overcome it by the combi ne d efforts of the allied troops and squadrons. About 2 p.m. I had hoisted my flag on board the steam-corvette Laplace, Captain Caboureau. which had joined the' squadron the evening before. I made for Cape St. Paul, to examine the works more closely, when a violent explosion, soon followed by suc cessive reports, apprized me that the Russians were blowing up their powder magazines, and had given up the idea of contesting this first passage. The abandon ment of Cape St. Paul seemed to indicate that the enemy had reserved a more advantageous line of defence, behind which they would concentrate, and await us. The old castle of Yenikale offered, in fact, to the Russians a, re. doubt the thick masonry of which would have withstood ths fire of our field batteries for a long time. A long line of floating batteries and transport ships armed with guns barred this second passage, in which th e d e pth o f the wa ter is not more than 13 feet, and therefore only acces sible to " avisos" or gun-boats. This line of floating batteries added their fire to the cross fire of the batteries of Yenikale and of the Russian battery erected on the Cheska bank. Our information respecting this part of the straits was very incomplete, and we might presume that we could not force such a position without an obstinate struggle. These latter obstacles were, however, to vanish with the same facility as the others. _ I have already informed your Excellency, by my de spatch of the 26th May, of the engagement which took place immediately after the evacuation of the batteries of Cape St. Paul between the defences of Yenikale and the English gun-boats, supported by the Fulton and Me gere. This engagement lasted till sunset, and the vessels engaged cast anchor in the Gulf of Kertch. This : In a ; nceuvre doubtless hastened the resolution of the enemy, for about eight o'clock in the evening a loud explosion announced to us that they had evacuated Yenikale in the same manner as they had abandoned their first • of defence.
