ASSAULT ON THE REDAN AND THE MALAKHOFF BATTERIES. CAMP ABOVE SEBASTOPOL, JUNE 19. The following is a diary of events of the last three days. It will be seen the attack against th e R e d a n and Malakhoff was not so successful as had been an ticipated, but the temporary failure will no doubt within a very bzief period be replaced by events of a more favourable of, character. They must shortly begained possession by a repetition of assault, or by other operations. JUNE 16.—Captain John Vaughan, of the 38th Regi ment, while posting some adva nce d sentries in front of the left attack last night, received a mortal wound through the body from a rifle ball. Captain Vaughan was one of the most acti ve o fficers in his regiment, and a general favourite. There has been a tolerably active fire kept up all day from various parts o f th e lines. The Russians on the right have chiefly directed their efforts against the Mamelon Vert, scarcely a shot Thehas been thrown at the day has been very new works n ear the Quarry. hot, and is f o llowed by a close evening. Many of the cannon shot thrown by the Russians during th e last . few e have been recently cast. Th e surface is quite free from ay rust, and bears marks of being finished by e mployment of filing. lt is suspected th a t a foundry has been established on the north side of Se bastopol, and that the shot thrown by us into the town and fortifications are by its means turned t o account a gainst us. The calibre of the Russia ns i s greater as com pared with the calibre of our guns of relative size, so that we are unable to use the Russian sh o t, an d t h ey could use ours, only with considerable loss in power and accuracy on account of the windage. It is not impro bable therefore that they have resorted to the practice of melting down and recasting the iron obtained from our shot, and thus saved themselves the delay and difficulty of transporting others through the Crimea. Rear-Admiral Sir E. Lyons returned with his fleet on the 15th to Kazatch ; on the evening of the 16th the night attack by the steamers on the sea defences of Sebastopol began, all the steamers going in and dis charging their broadsides, so that some eight or nine vessels thus harass the Russian vessels very much. The plan for their going in is, I believe, on a method proposed by Lord Clarence Paget, but subsequently improved by lights placed in certain positions by Cap tain Spratt, of her Majesty's surveying -ship Spitfire, who anchored the Spitfire at ten p.m. off the shoal that extends from the west point of Streletska Bay. At half-past ten the Tribune slowly crept into the as signed position, and opening her broadside poured into the Quarantine Battery her shell ; she was enabled to do this twice before the apparently just woke-up enemy could return her fire. Passing out, she was fol lowed by the Righflyer, Miranda, Niger, Viper, Snake, Weazer, and two or three French steamers, at intervals of 20 minutes, thus ccsupying the attention of the Rus sians, and keeping their batteries manned all night. The Danube, with two launches from Royal Albert, also went in boldly to about 1,200 yards, and threw 24 and 12 inch rockets into the town and shipping. It was a dead calm and black night ; the discharging of the broadsides, the blaze of fire, the illumined sky from the rockets, and bursting of shell on the parapets of Qua rantine Battery, with the cross fire from the Russians, apparently cutting our vessels to pieces, made it a grand night scene. lam glad to say that our vessels sus tained no injury whatever. JUNE 17.—The bombardment opened at break of day. A rocket from one of the French batteries on the right of Careening Bay was the signal, and was followed im mediately by a heavy fire, which began at the right, and soon extended along the lines as far as the left of the o Greenhill attackr Th e French batteries beyond did not pen a general fire. The Selinghinsk Redoubt—the "Redoubte Blanche" as the French have called it, from its parapets—had been fullyarmed, as well as the Mame lon, and both were now pouring a continuous fire into the batteries which appear as it above the shore on the west of Careening Bay and into the Malakhoff Tower works. The new battery made by our engineers above the Q nd uaeq, containing four mortars and three long 32- potiere, was throwing a raking fire into a battery, known left of the he M u d Battery, on the proper right (our )Korniloff Bastion and the ruin of the Malay hoff Tower. The Russian batteries replied with energy. er The Gard en B atteries on the left of the Southharhn as were also very active against us, and surprise was expressed th at arrangements had not been made with ' the French works on the left for keeping these in check. The wi n d b lew from a north-eesterly direction, a ear ned th e smoke from the right along the batteries and across the rav i ne, in which it lodged like a thick mist towards the left. So dense was the cloud of smoke that the G reenhill attack was not visible to a spectator his positi on on the right, e xcepting at raretaking intervals, when e ith er a temporary slac k e ning fresheni ng o f the breeze for a f e wf the fire or a o minutes cleared th e obstr uct i on away.

The French have appeared to suffer severely in the redoubt on the Mamelon Vert. The large line of battle ships remain silent. 10 &St.—Three rockets have just been fired by the French f rom the Victoria redoubt.

A consider. able number of guns on the right of the Malakhoff cover the R e d a n, but the Redan does not bear on the Mala. khoff. The Engiish troops are particularly not to show themselves in the trenches, so that the enemy supposing the assault to be confined to the Malakhoff-hill, may be' diverted from concentrating a force to defend the Redan. The - a tt a ck against the Redan is to be made by t h ree storming columns. They are to be under the command of Lieut.-General Sir George Brown. The columns are to be composed of men from the Light, Fourth, and S. eo cond Divisions. The columns from the Lightand Fourth Divisions are simultaneously to attack the two flanks of the Redan : the Light Division assaultingthe left flank, the Fou r th Division the right flank. column of th e S e - When these are carried, and a lodgment effected, the , Se cond Livision is to attack the salient angle, and to mak e a road there for the entrance of the w orkin g parties.

Colonel f 20 Yea, of the 7th Fusiliers, is to act as brigadier -general in the Light Division attack ; and General Codrington is to assume temporary command of the whole division while Sir George Brown commands the general attack. The storming column from the Fourth Division is to consist wholly of men of the 57th Regiment, and to be under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Shadforth. Capt. Peel, R.N., will command the naval contingent. Sir G. Brown is to be in the S-gun battery in rear of the second parallel, right attack ; Field Marshal Lord Raglan is to take up a position in another battery of the same at tack. The signal for the British assault is to be a flag hoisted in the 8-gun battery. A brigade of the Third Division, under Major-General Eyre, is to make an attack upon the Garden Battery, on the west side of the south harbour. It is to consist of the 18th, 38th, and 44th Regiments. Th 9 10th Hussars have received orders to hold them selves in readiness for special service. Fifty ItooperS. from each regiment of the Cavalry Division, excepting the 10th, are to move to the front at daybreak. It is generally supposed that a simultaneous m ovemen t w ill take place in the plain, that a part of Sardinian and French forces encamped there will cross the Tchernaya river and attack the Russian position on the Joker man mountain, and so draw off part of the troops on the north side, which might otherwise be brought across to reinforce the garrison of Sebastopol. It is presumed the 10th Hussars are to act in conjunction with this force. It is also asserted that the French will make a feigned movement on the left, taking ad vantage of any circumstances which may offer them selves. Another rumour states that the fleet will effect an entrance into the roadstead, and assist the land forces. The First Division is to move to the front at an early hour and form a second reserve. Such is supposed to be the general plan of the attack. Jame 18, 8 a.m.—A few lines will suffice to describe the result, so contrary to what was anticipated, of the assault upon the Malakhoff and Redan. It is a subject that no Englishman can wish to dwell upon ; for although the same indomitable courage was exhibited that shone forth so conspicuously in the fatal charge at Balaklava, it was displayed to as little purpose, and was attended by a like disastrous sacrifice of life. Shortly before 3 a.m. the attacking columns, supports, and reserves, being in their respective positions in the trenches, before the Run had risen to dissipate the dense vapours which a slight breeze from the eastward failed to remove, and just as the batteries were expected to open in full force, a sudden fire of musketry between the Malakhoff wor k s and the Mamelon attracted universal attention. Th e l ong li nes of am b ulance mu l es of the French were only commencing to thread their way through the ravines to the scene of intended attack, .lead ing troop of the cavalry expedition from below an w d a H s just appearing in sight, the reserve of Guards and wasg High landers had not yet arrived.

Before this shelter bad been obtained, and while the troops were fighting within and around the Malakhoff, the flag was hoisted in the 8-gun battery. Late in the day previous the arrangement respecting the composition of the storm ing column under Colonel Lysons had b een changed. Instead of 200 men front the 23d F us ili ers and 200 me n from the 34th Regiment, the column was to consist wholly of men of the• 34th Regiment, the number remaining the same. This involved other changes in the composition of the supports and work ing parties. The storming column from the Fourth Division remained as before arranged. The signal for the assault was no sooner given than it was perceived, and at once these brave men left their shelter in the trenches. Just what the Russians were waiting for : the columns had no sooner shown themselves than the fire from above opened. It was a raging storm, an in cessant rain of grape and rifle balls. The dead and wounded strewed the ground ; it was a miracle how any escaped. On the left, Col. Shadforth had fallen ; on the right, Col. Lysons, wounded in the knee, found himself close to the deep fosse, but, out of his 400, with not more than 40 around him. Neither the woolsacks nor the ladders were at hand, but that was a matter of little import, for the parapets were covered. with dense lines of the enemy, and on every side the deadly grape swept down its victims. The Redan was filled with troops. Supports sent to the storming parties could not be of any avail, and nothing was left but to retire, with the hope of renewing the attack at a more season able opportunity. The deaths of Brigadier-General Sir John Campbell, Colonel Lacey Yea, and Colonel Lysons is a serious loss to the whole army. The 57th had their colonel and two officers killed, and seven officers wounded. The 34th had four officers killed and four wounded. The 33d Regiment had four officers killed and two wounded. The 7th Fusiliers had one officer killed and nine or ten wounded. In the Rifle Brigade two officers were killed and three wounded. Lieutenant-Colonel Mundy, of the 33d Regiment, who was lately wounded in the shoulder, and left the sick list to take his share in this attack, received a gunshot wound near the hip. Lieutenants Valentine Bennett and Langford Heyland, of the same regiment, were killed ; Lieu tenant-Colonel Johnstone lost his left hand, .and Captains Quayle and Thomas Wickham were badly wounded, the former, it is feared, mortally. Major- General Jones, of the Royal Engineers, who was in the 8-gun battery in the right attack, received an inj iry in the forehead from a stone driven from the parapet by a round shot, and suffered from profuse bleeding. In the same battery Captain George Browne of the 88th Regiment, h a d his right arm carried off by ' a round shot. The same shot killed two men at his side.

They a ave tare, indeed, for the pre sent prisoners in the battery they hken ; they are unable to leave it withou6 b ein g exposed to a deadly fire. Their loss is not known but one or two messages have beet managed to be sent. The 18i,h Regiment has particularly suffered. Fears are also expressed respecting General Eyre. The regi ments will not be able to quit until darkness has arrived. Altogether, our loss, it is calculated, will amount to between fifty and sixty officers killed and wounded. The number of men killed and wounded is not known. Many bodies are still lying on the ground near the Redan. Sonic of the wounded have contrived to creep in to our trenches : among oth ers, an officer who first fell wounded at the ditch of the Redan. He held up a white pocket handkerchief, as a si gna l t h at he rendered himself, but the Russians standing on the parapet fired a. volley, and again wounded him in the chest. The Russians mast have suffered severely, for the shot and shell fell thickly in the Malakhoff batteries and Redan, while the enemy crowded the wo r k s. About n' 5 a.m. some very heavy firing was heard on the extreme left, and it was generally attributed to broad sides from our fleet. A hope was suddenly felt that they had forced their way through the sunken ships at the mouth of the roadstead, and would soon divert the fire from the Russian steamers, whiCh were making se vere havoc in the Fre t nr e l fir columns as ol e u e mn e s d, ne a a n r d t t h he the hopa w Mamelon.as di But dissi pated. pated. in a short time h The expected attack on the right, by th e army in the plain, against the Inkerman h e i g h ts, was also eagerly listened for, but nothing was did not take place.

JUNE D.—The success of yesterday induced the enemy lasi night to make a sortie in force against our advanced works and those of the French. At half past 12 o'clock a tremendous fire of musketry opened, and the divisions in front were called under arms. The fire ceased, however, without their assistance being required. No particulars are known beyond the fact of the Rus sians being gallantly repulsed. Their loss must have been great a 9 they retired from the fire of the batteries. The Guards and Highlanders gave the greater part of the trench duties in the right attack. It is currently stated that an expedition consisting of a force of Sardinians and French, togethel with 500 men cf our 10th hussars, is to start t o -d ay in the three i ion of Mackenzi e ' s farm. The 10th Hussars were usaler orders last night to move to the plain about two hours before daybreak this morning. rAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENI CE. information relative to the move ments gives the i subsequently to his letter of the 21st : Our Malta correspondent in his letter, of the 24th ult., crew line-of-battle ship Navarin, and "The French 8 1 with four masts (the Great Repub.

C'slder's company, gth battalion Royal Artillery (N field-battery), at present stationed at Bristol, is under orders for the Crimea. About 400 recruits have jalned the Artillery during the past month. A number of these belonged to the Militia regiments. Works of considerable importance for, the defence of the southern coast are now in progress in Sussex, the ex penses of which were set down in tne Ordnance estimates at 10,0001. From Romney, in Kent, to Newhaven, there are 74 martello towers, which were erected when England was threatened with invasion by the first Napo leon. They are about a quarter of a mile apart, about 35 feet tigh, and fitted for one gun on a dwarf traversing platform. Each of these is calculated to hold 12 men, and underneath are magezines'and stores. Near East boorne is the Langley Redoubt, mounting six 8-inch guns ; and the circular redoubt at Eastbourne mounts 11 24 pounders. A new battery is in course of erection at Cuckmore ; when completed it will mount six 24- pounders. At Thatchington and Newhaven new fortifi cations are also being erected. The latter place is be coming a port of considerable importance, and at the mouth of the harbour extensive works are in course of construction. They are to present an angular front to the sea; internally there will be brickwork. The batte ries will be composed of earthwork, 30 feet thick, rising 9 feet above the level of the eastern pier. The dimensions of the work are 112 feet from each of the angles in the interior. The magazines are of brickwork, and 50 feet square. Each front of the batteries will mount three guns of heavy calibre on swivels. At Brighton there is a battery of six 24-pounders ' and thence to Little Hamp ton the coast i s unprotected. At the latter place new fortfications have been just completed and armed ; six field pieces were also placed there laSt-week for the use of the Sussex Artillery Militia. The whole of the above forts except Brighton are occupied by the Sussex and Norfolk Artillery Militia.. Among the number of wounded soldiers paraded for her Majesty's inspection on her recent vieit to the Case mates at Chatham, was Corporal Wro. Courtney, of the 46th Regiment, who was wounded in the head by three Mlni6 rifle balls, entering the forehead, just as be was taking aim over a heap of stones at the Russians in a : Al e pit ; he also had a ball in the right shoulder, and two in the right and one in the left leg. The whole of these balls he received at cne time from the rifle pits. He was employed in the outpost duty, looking out for the Russians ; he volunteered for it, having hag. some expe rience in such service when he was in India. Her Ma jesty, on looking at his card, kindly asked him a few questions and examined his forehead. Large pieces of bone have come out from the places at which the balls entered; two of the balls have been extracted. Tier Majesty said she should keep his card and would do something for him. He produced his greatcoat, which was riddled with bullet holes. Her Majesty said she hoped he would keep it, which he promised he would do. , Courtney is a native of Brighton ; he was at Gib raltar-with the 44th when the Crimean war broke out, and the 46th proceeding to the war he volunteered into that regiment. He has been a volunteer into four dif ferent corps when they have been ordered for service, and if his wounds would permit him he would willingly volunteer again and go out to the East. He expects shortly to receive his discharge. He was at the battles of the Alma, Inkerman, and Balaklara, and, although he was in the midst of those engagements, he escaped without receiving any injury. It is doubtful whether the 98th Regiment will pro ceed to the Crimea so soon a, intended, in consequence of the non -arrival of the detachments which took pas sage from India in the Maidstone Indiaman and the Lord Raglan freight -ship. THE DEMONSTRATION- IN HYDE PARK. The scene which took place yesterday in Hyde-park will long be remembered by those who witnessed it. Three o'clock was the advertised time for the proceed ings to begin, and, notwithstanding that Sir Richard Mayne had had placards posted in the metropolis, an nouncing that the meeting would not be allowed to take place, long before that hour Constitution-hill and the walks in St. James's-park were literally crowded by thousands who were all wending their way towards Hyde-park. By half-past two o'clock there must have beeu nearly 150,000 men, women, and children present. Many, judging from their dress, were of the respectable class, The proceedings commenced by a man, whose name did not transpire, getting up an d commencing an address. He said that he had been invited to accotrinany Lord Robert Grosvenor to church that morning. He went ac cording to th e printed in v it a ti on , b u t, i ns tead of having the honour of accompanying his lordship to church, he found, after waiting some time, that his lordship had left town the previous day in a hired carriage, because he was afraid to take his own, lest he might be known. Now, he would just ask if any man, with the least grain of common sense, seeing that such was the obnoxious nature of the bill he had introduced, dare to get policemen.t hoefnxvioneeishetmlsoinarnTdashtnweasrtai up in the house and assert that it was his intention to persevere in forcing the measure down their throats ? What was the feelingof the metropolis on the subject ? Let any member of the House of Commons who was in favour of pushing the bill forward look at the respectability of that vast assemblage, who, by their presence, shoxed their disgust at the measure, which, he had no hesitation in saying, would ruin thousands. His lordship could not see the necessity that existed for closing the club houses,. which were at all hours open for the accommo dation of the noh!es of the land, the clergy, and bishops, prevent the bill passing ; and, although he did not like ttbbt the o e ( v ) : ecl a t ho s u f , 1 fact l e i t i't,e. to go anythingwagh suds sd d ,o n tumh e ta t ootr i fnwtt determinedtooehruwnfl e ndn r interfered a l ousde withoa alltd the i e4t, uhrahalfpennydisturbance, cee, co s u te lc a l m tO g n . u o a t r s d 'o ed ti b n y ud 2o " oa th o a d t, h e a v v e e n h'i h s is t l o o w ri t l i sh r i e ) s , i s de b r:c o. e . , hemansion w a dt k h oftli ecro, constables b M i easr hiddenqui s pro perty. He maintained that there was not a man in London among the working classes who entertained the least hostility towards his lordship„but the present meet ing ought to show that they never would receive the coercive measure he had brought forward. The people here commenced to cheer, when a cry of " the polic" n o naep h swri n om d ttieolc b atb r r o eihr i h i l ali g e i ; r:i w t nbs i a e n r s i was raised. At that moment some 30 or 40 police offi cers came marching towards the spot, but before the officers had time to get there the speaker had succeeded in getting away. A great number of men, on finding that the man was not allowed to address them, commenced hissing and hooting at the police, and crane cried out, "Do wn w ith the crirhers !" This gave rieu to an extraordinary scene of confusion,—some of the men commenced knocking the constables' hats off, and to protect themselves, the men were obliged to use their truncheons with consi derable force. A man name; 11 essell was knocked down i by a policeman, and his hen:: '7as laid open. He was conveyed to the Royal Humane Seciety's receiving-house, where his wounds were dressed. A little child, six or eight years old, was forced down by the erntiid. trArnnlpd upon, and so much injured that it was deemed necessary to remove it to St. George's Hospital. Several carriages containing company, but nothing like the number in the ride last Sunday, came in sigh', when every one present commenced crying out, "G to church," and " Take your horses out." The police, findiree that this frightened the homes, commenced seiz ing those who uttered the expressions. In return, the crowd laid hold of the officers, and endeavoured to take their prisoners away, when the constables resorted to most vigorous measures, and several poor misguided fellows were struck over the head and the back of the neck so violently that the blood gushed forth. They were at once taken to the temporary lockup at Mr. Hanbury's ° the head park-ke e p er ' s, w h en they were handcuffed and kept in custody until a sufficient number of cabs could be procured to convey them to the Vine street station, Piccadilly. About 4 o'clock not fewer than seven cabriolets started for the station, each containing prisoners, some of whom were sadly injured by the truncheons of the police. As the cabs left the park, escorted each by a body of police, the officers were groaned at, but no rescue took place, although several attempts were made. Sir Richard Mayne and Superintendents Gibbs (13), Walker (N), and Inspectors Banks and Darkin (A), with Inspector Brennan (G), and several others, had the entire control of the police. Many of the constables were in different parts of the park, and were not called togmake their appearance until it was deemed abso lutely necessary to have the whole force at hand upon the scene of action. .The moment the men came upon the ground they were groaned at and pelted with stones, which some of the spectators had taken care to fill their pockets with. One man, al though repeatedly warned, continued to pelt the police as he stood on the bank of the Serpentine, and being aided by others standing near, a large number of officers went forward to clear that part of the park, when the man, seeing that he was likely to be taken, leaped - into th e Serpentine, and bad swam about half way over the river when be showed every in dication of sinking. Mr. Deputy-Superintendent Par sons, of the Royal Humane Society, at once put off in a boat and rescued the man, when he was forthwith claimed by the police as their prisoner. He was locked up in the temporary station in the park, and afterwards removed to Vine-street station-house. Shortly before 5 o'clock the crowd assumed such a threatening aspect that it was found necessary to send off for further reinforcements of police, and in a very short apace of time a large body of t'ce M and L division under the command of Inspector Harmswortb, were sent to Vine-street-station to guard the place while the con stables of the regular division were sent to Hyde-park. One man, finding that it was utterly impossible to ad dress the crowd in that partof the parks which the police had in charge, proceeded to the public path leading to Albert-gate, and commenced speaking in something like the following terms, noise being so great it was hardly possible to take a correct note :—" Men of Old Eng land ; awake, rise from your slumbers, or be for ever fallen 1 We are determined to have nothing to do with Lord Robert Grosvenor's 'send us to church bill.' Oppose it every succeeding Sunday, as you have done to-day. The meeting yonder will make his lordship tremble when he sees the morning papers to-morrow, and, if on Wednesday next he persist+, the remedy lies in your own hands. Let me advise you to be temperate, but firm ; don't fear to demand your just rights and privileges, but throw off the shackles of oligarchical op pression and misrule. If you do .not I tell you, you will be irretrievably oppressed and ruined. Is it not a pity that the inhabitants of this great metropolis— the greatest in the civilized world—should have their liberties placed in the hands of my Lord Robert Gros venor and such men as Lord Ebrington ? Then let us to a man be up and doing. I see a great number of women present, but if you do not oppose this obnoxi ous bill, take my word you will receive a second edi tion of my friend Douglas Jerrold's curtain lectures. I would ask you whence come war and fighting among you? Simply from having such bigotsin the house as Lord R. Grosvenor—a good man, no doubt. But we won't be coerced ; we won't go to church because he says we must, unless, we like to go. Look at the present war ; is it not carried on at the expense and the sacrifice of blood of the productive'classes ? (" Yes.") I main tain that everything the industrial classes have lost has been through such men as Lord Grosvenor. I would, therefore, recommend that you should accompany me to his lordship's house—it is only in Park-lane, I mean near Grosvenor-gate—and ask his lordship whether he has made up his mind to withdraw this horrible, humiliating, and depresmg bill." The speaker quoted several pas sages of Scripture to enforce his argument, and said, " Princes are rebellious, and (so is Lord Robert Gros venor) companinans of thieves. Understand me cor rectly—l mean the man who robs another of a Sun day's dinner when he is not paid till, perhaps, the morn ing of that day. His lbrdship wants to drive us to church and make us religious by act of Parliament; but it- won't do, and we are determined to oppose the mea sure." Just at this time Mr. Superintendent Gibbs and Mr. Inspector Simmonds, of the B division, having been noticed moving along the carriage road, led the speaker to believe that they were about to pounce upon him. Upon this be quitted his position and ran away, the crowd, who had surrounded him, crying out, " Well, he is a jolly parsOn after all." . By 8 o'clock the immense crowd began to leave the park,.but many had previously left to see Lord Robert Grosvenor's town house. From inquiries made at 9 o'clock last night at the Vine street Police-station the reporter was informed that not fewer than 104 persons who bad taken part in the riot ous proceedings had been lodged in the cells of the sta tion. They will be taken before the magistrate at Marl borough -street this day. At St. George's Hospital it was ascertained that seven or eigbt persons had been brought in, who were severely injured, and who, after their wounds were dressed, were taken away in the custody of the police. A man named Thomas Page, a bricklayer, of Lisson gro7e, received a severe injury to his ankle. This demonstration is to be repeated, at least so some . of the speakers stated, 'next Sunday. MONSTER MEETING AT GREENWICH-PARK, A variety of proclamations had been for some days circulated in the neighbourhood of Greenwich, convening a great meeting at the Observatory, in the Park, at three o'clock. •At the appointed hour about ten thousand persons assembled, and ineffectual efforts to address the meeting were made by several individuals ; their exer tions, however, were restrained by the interfereno3 of the police. MARTIN AND ANOTIIIIR v. TRE CRYSTAL PALACE COMPANY. This case came before the Court of Exchequer on Mon day last. The declaration stated that the plaintiffs sued the de fendants for materials- provided, and on an account stated.' The defendants pleaded never indebted. Mr. Knowles and Mr. Thompson appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Bramwell and Mr. Bovill represented the company. Mr. Knowles, in opening th e case, said the plaintiffs were wood engravers, carrying on business in Long-acre, and de fendants were members of a company, incorporated under an act of Parliament, for the purpose of erecting and con ducting that well-known edifice at Sydenharn, the Crys tal Palace. The object of the action was to recover 1631. for work done, and materials, supplied to the de fendants. It would be well to state that up to the open ing of the Palace there were various departments, two of which were designated respectively " the fine arts department," and the " literary department." Soon after the opening of the Palace, guilt books were issued by the company, and, in order to make them more complete, it was deemed advisable to illustrate them with plates. The plaintiffs, who were acquainted with Mr. Phillips, who was connected with the literary department, applied to him at the latter end of 1852, to obtain for them the engraving of the plates for the fine arts department, and accordingly on the 12th of January they received a letter from a Mr. Groves, dated from the Crystal Palace, who said their communication had been forwarded to Mr. Phillips, and that it would be laid before the proper officers of the company. Subsequently the plaintiffs executed and were paid for a small order by the financial officer of the fine arts department, and they continued to work for the company till the Christmas of 1853, when the bill amounted to 191. odd, which on being sent in was duly paid. Things went on in this way, and at last the work, which was sometimes sent to the Crystal Palace and sometimes to Bradbury and Evans', amounted to 1631. In the meantime a change bad taken taken place in the fine arts department—Mr. Bonhomie's situation—the gentleman who had conducted that branch of the busi ness—having been filled by Mr. Delamotte. The plain tiffs applied to Mr. Delamotte for payment of their ac count, and having been referred from one to the other, they wore finally compelled to bring their action to re cover the amount for the actual work supplied to the defendants. The Chief Baton—lt appears to me that this is a question of law, and not a matter for the consideration of the jury. Mr. Knowles thought he could establish the defend. ants' liability. Lundy examined—He was one of the plaintiffs. He was acquainted with the late Mr. Phillips, who had an office at the Crystal Palace, and at the latter end of 1852 they applied to him for the engraving of the plates for the company, and on 16th of January, 1853, they received a letter from Mr. Groves, eayin4 their application had. been forwarded to the proper quarter. Mr. Owen Jones had an office in the fine arts department, in which office Mr. Bonhomie was engaged. On the 15th June, 1853, they had sent some "blocks" to a Mr. Sharpe, Barnsbury, Islingt m, for which Mr. Kinlock, the manufacturer of the fine arts department, paid. Some of the woodcuts which were sent to Mr. Sharpe were distributed throughout the guide books. When the goods were sent to Sherpa he signed delivery tickets. The Lord Chief Baron suggested that the case should be stated for the opinion of the court. The learned counsel for the defendants would afford every facility in his power, and state the grounds on which his defence rested. Mr. Bramwell said if be admitted those documents in evidence they would be used against him. His clients had defended this action from a point of honour, as they were in no degree respon'sible for the claim m ide by the plaintiffs. He would protest against any imputation be ing cast on the defendant.. - The Lord Chief Baron—There is not the, slightest im, potation on your clients. After a short discussion between the counsel on bith sides, the cause was referred to Mr. Rose, with power to the learned counsel to adjudicate finally upon it or to draw 'up a case for the opinion of the court. A verdict•was then entered for the plaintiffs, subject in ...raf dr An • • PRICES OP BIIABES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK.

Solo naons, opticians, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly. nbserve opposite the York Hotel. By her Majesty's Roy 1 Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race course, Opera, and Perspective Glasses, to know the distances of objects viewed through them—of great importance to the army, navy, and others. These telescopes possess such extra. ordinary powers that some 3i inches, with an extra eye piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distan , , and an object from le to 20 miles. They are of larger and al sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary ing from 4 to 6 inches enab'e us to discover more than the above, and the Georgian, with his 6 satellites, &c.—The Royal Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small, powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and known miles distant ; they answer every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera hou se', country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at S to 10 miles. They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting , t o sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera, race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful power.—Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the great est transparent power. The valuable advantage derive' from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons ar enabled to employ their sight at the most minute °eel, pation—can see with these lenses of a much less magnify ing power—and they do not require the frequent change. to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Dea - ness—Now Discovery. —The organic Vibrator, an extraordi nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafness, entirely different from all others, to Surpass anything of the kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing _wises in the ears is entirely removed; and it affords all the assist ance that possibly could be desired. 39, Albemarle-street, n• 2.11- COUNTRY MARKETS.
