AUSTRIA. The Breslau) Gazette confirms the account of the defeat of the united armies of Au,tria and Ru,sia on the 14th and 15th. The battle took place on the left bank of the Danube, in the plain betwe.n Wes-elburg and Raab, and lasted sixty-four hours. The llun gariaeg were commanded by Generals Arthur Georgey and Guyon, and the Imperialists by Hayti= and Rudiger. 23,000 Austrians and Russians, and 6 0 00 Hungarians, were killed. Field-Marshal b(thlick and several other officers of high rank were taken by the Magyars. The rout was complete. The Austro-Russian army fled from the field in complete disorder, followed to the frontiers by clouds of Hus sars and Ciskos, who cut up the fugitives - wherever they overtook them. FRANCE. The Cerelp Constitutionnel, lately presided over by M. Dufaure, has, on the occasion of its reorganizing itself and appointing new officers, published a manifesto explanatory of the principles by which it is actuated. The following are the principal passages : " The first sentiment (says the document) under the Empire of which the members of this reunion have as sembled is the firm determination to maintain the Con stitution. Most of them neither created nor wished for the Republic, but all have frankly accepted it, and, with out any arriere pensee, desire to preserve it. They do not confine themselves to merely according to it their acquiescence, they mean to afford it their firm co operation. In their eyes it is not sufficient not to be hostile to it, but it is important to aid and serve it. A Government is badly supported when it is only tole rated, and people are very ready to abandon it when they declare it impossible, and keep for another their de sires and their hopes. The hopes and desires of the members of the Cercle are for the Republic and for its firm establishment. They do not deceive themselves with regard to the imperfections which the Constitution may )resent; but'such as it is, it appears to them, if honestly executed, to offer all the essential conditions of a good Government; and being opposed to impatient wishes for an immediate revision, they do not admit that the Constitution can be modified except according to the forms arid at the time the Constitution has itself prescribed. Any irregular change would re-open to all parties the path of revolution. But, whilst they sincerely and firmly wish for the maintenance c , f the Constitution, the members of the Cercle do not admit that, under pretext that it is violated by the great powers of the State, the country can be thrown, as it has just been, into the perils and horrors of civil war. They str - ongly condemn such wild and criminal enter prises; all applaud the triumph of order; they will not refuse to the Government anything that may be neces sary for it to defend society; they will only stop at the point at which resistance would become reaction; and then, in restraining the Government, they would believe that they still aided it." Referring to Socialism, the mani.esto expresses itself as follows : "It is not such or such a form of government that this Utopian theory attacks, but society itself—all society. But at the same time that they are convinced of this truth, the members of the Cercle Constitutionnel have another conviction ; they believe that the first condition of success for the cause of order is that the combat shall be always openly sustained in the name of and for the Republic. Society and order,' it is alleged, must first be saved, the Republic and the Constitution can next be looked to.' But that is a bad way of stating the question I The first condition of order is the maintenance of the Constitution—the first condi tion of force is the power of the Republic. Force derived from the Republic and the Constitution can alone save society. Many adversaries of the So cialist doctrines sincerely believe that the only means of putting them down is to crush it by force. The mem bers of the Cercle Consitutionnel are fully of opinion that no violence should remain unrepressed, and that and that no bad propagandism should exist without one in opposition to it; but they, at the same time, think that there exists another and better plan of triumphing over it, and that is to labour seriously and con stantly for.the cure of social evils. Socialism is a Utopian scheme ; but social miseries are not chimerical. The greatest crime, perhaps, of Socialism is to set forth impos sible remedies for serious evils, and by its impuissance to cause evils, which it is the duty of society to relieve if not to cure, to be considered incurable. The best sen tence to pass on it is to oppose sound and useful reali ties to its wild Utopian ideas, and to prove that for all the cruel sufferings which it only knows how to envenom there exist not only true and profound sympathies, but sure alleviations or effi:acious remedies." The document concludes as follows, with a decla ration of its intention to support the present Govern ment:— " Profoundly convinced that in such times as ours the weakness of the Government is a great evil, and its force a necessity, the members of the Cercle Con3titutionnel have Dist constituted an opposition meeting. They have, &dm the first, declared positively, and they again declare their firm determination to afford to the President of the Republic and his Ministry frank and independent support. Sincere co-operation on e t their rt is assured to the Go vernmen t, an d precis 'because they would not hesitat e t o warn it frankly its errors by their counsels, and it necessary even by their vo:es, they will confer on it greater strength by their conscientious adhesion." MINING TELL IGEN CE. (From the Mining Journal.) During the past few days there has been a manifest improvement in the share market, and many shares have changed hands, especially in some of the leading and im proving mines. Improvements have been reported in lleigrston Downs, Alfred Consols, and Mary Ann, and shares have, consequently, been in demand at met. quota tions, and in the latter especially an advance has taken place. Camborne consols have been done at our present quo tations, in anticipation of some important improvement being near at hand. The directors in Tamar Consols, at their meeting, yes terday, declared a dividend of 10 per cent. Tincroft is represented to be looking remarkably well; 430 tuns of copper ore were sampled on Wednesday, the next will be considerably more. In Esgair Lli and Cwtn Erfin large number of shares have found buyers, and the mines are represented to be progressively improving, and will evidently, from present prospects, become permanent mines. The Welsh lead mines are stated to be generally in a very productive position, and some important discoveries are fully anticipated at Court Grange Mines (formerly Cefn). At the Stray-park and Camborne Vean meeting the accounts show the returns for the four months ending April, at 3,797/. SL, giving a profit of 6301. 183. ld.; balance in hand, 1,252/. I la. 7d. A dividend of 103. per share was declared, leaving credit of 7521. 1 ls. 7d. to next account. The agent's report of the present and future prospects of the mine are highly encouraging; but the present low standard precludes the possibility of givinr , large profits. At the Condurrow meeting, a dividend of 31. per share was declared; the balance in hand is 691. The manager's report is highly satisfactory. The 80 fm, level has im proved, and the lode is now worth 501. per fm. for tin. The 70 east is worth 151. per fm. for copper, and the 30 east is also worth 15/. per fm.; the pitches are working at a favourable tribute to the company, and the mine generally is looking well. At the Wheal Seton meeting, the accounts show a profit of 2381. 153. 11d. on MArch and April workings, which, with balance from last account, gives a credit of 4071. 193. 4d. carried to next account. The prospects of the mine have considerably improved since the last meeting. The north taunter presents prospects of early improvement, the stopes over the end producing 15 tons of ore to the fathom. The 80 end is producing 8 tons, and the stopes in the- back 12 tons per fathom. The stopes in the back of the 70, on the south part of the lode, are turning out 11 tons; the n firth part of the lode, whieh is not being taken away, will produce 6 tons more. The other levels and stopes are also productive, turning out 3 and 4 tons per fathom. A number of pitches in the various levels are worked on tribute, highly favour able to the adventurers. A great deal of dead work has been completed, and a charge of 5002, caused by the erection of the new steam-whim and crusher, is included in the above costs ; and, notwithstanding the decline in ,the standard, the mine will shortly be in a position of resuming her dividends. At the Lelant Consols meeting, the accounts for four months, endin g April, were audited, and a profit of 409/. 2s. 7d. shown to have been realised. The agent reports the trine to be now i n a position of becoming p er manent, a lthough the present d e cli ne in thAerapdriiteioenof.. tin militates much a g ainst her returns . force is being put on th lt p art of the mind which is sup posed posed to contain the valuable lodes of Wheal Margaret. At the East Pool meeting the accounts for April and May showed—Costs and merchants' bills, 1,1461. ls. 8.d.; by ores sold, 1,1041. 23. 10d.; leaving a balance ag ainst the adventurers of 41/. las. 10d. At the Trevean meeting, the accounts showed balance in favour of company, 55/. 17s. 11d., after deducting the debit from last account. By the death of Lady Car rington, the lease falls into the hands of her succes sor; and 'a committee was framed to negotiate with the present proprietor for a new lease, the company pledg ing themselves to erect a steam-engine, and sink the shaft to the depth of 40 fms. At the Tre;valden Mine meeting, a balance of 1671. 63. 2d. appeared in favour of the comp an y. F rom t h e highly promising petit ion of this min e , su pp or t e d b y the strong recommen dat i on of their i n t e ll igent agent, the meeting resolved tnat a steam-engine be immediately erected, fur the purpose of affording an efficient trial, to meet which a call of 21. per share was deemed necessary. At the Tremayne meeting the accounts showed ba lance in hand of 313/. Bs. 7d. The fall in the market prices of tin and copper has made a difference in the receipts - within th`h mor.th to the extent of 5001. Dispatche s were received yesterday from the Real del Monte, Bolanos, and , United Mexican Mining Companies. From Real d'ea Monte we learn that the property has *yen passed over fFaaa th e old company, in England, to pa i rohasers n Mexico ; and it appet4=that had the share holders come fo rward and supported the new company, proposed to be .ormcd in M arc h last, they would now The mines have b een , me Ea?n,ths, and there is e very prospect have begun to reap tne benefit. improving for ,; of their bccomiog again as productive as in earlier and pro erous times. of M Bolanos adviees are to the 4th May, In the El te Mine there has been nothing discovered of an y importance, hut considerable expl ora tory works h ave been carried on, an engine erected, which performs well, and other surface work com pleted. In Celestina an im provement of such interest had taken place, as to pre vent, at least for the time, the abandonment of the mine. The directors' report s t a t es th a t f urt h er subscriptions will be required to carry on the works. The advices fr , 433 the United Mexican are to:7th May. The improved condition of the mine had continued, and the last monthly returns had exceeded the expenditure by 9,219 dolls besides c - ivering the deficit of the former month of 1,792 Jesus and Purisima had some what det.eriorated; hut the more important point of Santo Toribo had given higher and 341 more promising produce.

THE COAST OF AFRICA CORRESPONDENCE.—Great complaints exist on the coast of Africa respecting letters and papers forwarded monthly by ships-of-war from England. Some stringent Admiralty order on the sub ject would render an essential benefit to those serving there. There is a recent instance of one ship-of-war communicating with another, and nearly parting com pany again before recollecting that she had a bag of let ters to deliver. We know that in some stations this sub ject receives the greatest attention on board the flag ships. PRESIDENCY OF THE ROYAL NAVAL SCHOOL.---We understand that Rear-Admiral Bowles, C. 8., M.P., has withdrawn his letter of resignation, and has consented to continue President of the Royal Naval School. The Admiralty have ordered not only the Royalist, now in the East Indies, but the Adelaide, intended as a steam-tug for Port Adelaide, to proceed to the Cape, and there to be employed as tenders to the Commodore's ship. It is reported that Captain Charles Fremantle, who paid off the Albion, 90, last year, after a short period of service in her, will again be appointed to the command of that ship. THE CANADA COMMAND.--.The command of the forces in Canada is to be divided between Major- General W. Rowan, and Lieutenant-General Sir John Harvey—the former to have the rank (local) and pay of a Lieutenant-General on the Staff; and the latter, in ad dition to his government, and also the pay of a Lieu tenant-General on the staff—by this arrangement a sav int.; will accrue to the public. THE HONG-KONG COMMAND.—A reduction is about to take place in the military establishment at Hong- Kong. It is to cease to be a Major-General's command, and to be placed under that of a Colonel on the Staff. It is rumoured that Colonel Trevor, 59th, is likely to be selected for the appointment. CHATHAM GARRISON.—We regret to announce that Lieutenant-Colonel Weare, K. 11., commanding the Pro visional Battalion, has been attacked with serious illness, which has confined him to his bed since Sunday last. VANCOUVER'S ISLAND.—The Hudson's Bay Company have submitted to the consideration of the Government the expediency of allowing Pensioners to emigrate to this colony, to be formed for service under Staff Offi cers in the manner adopted in the emigration to New Zealand. The Land Service Practice Battery, ordered to be con structed outside Fort Cumberland, for the Royal Marine Artillery, is not to be commenced until after the next official visit of the Lords of the Admiralty to Portsmouth. TROOPS IN THE TROPICS.—We noticed some short time since that a Board of Officers had been ordered to as semble to investigate and report as to the best means of providing sanitary accommodation for troops in the West Indies. It has recommended the use of hospital mar quees for sanitary encampments, which are, on all occa sions, to be double, with an interspace of eighteen or twenty inches, judiciously ventilated along the ridges. Each marquee is to accommodate not more than twelve men with bedsteads, which will give a space of nearly five feet for every bedstead, and between the two ranks of bedsteads, by night, four feet, and, when turned up by day, ten feet, thus allowing ample room for tables, forms, &c. This arrangement will entail a trifling additional expense, but the recommendation has been fully ap proved of both by the Ordnance and other military autho rities, and instncions issued immediately to have it car ried into effect. The marquees are on all occasions to be boarded when such is deemed necessary by the medical Officers. To meet the great objection also which is well known to exist on the part of soldiers to go into an hos pital, more especially during the prevalence of an epi (tunic, hospital marquees are to be provided in the proportion of one to every 100 men, for those who have such objection. The above arrangements we think very judicious, and such as we were led to expect when we observed the constitution of the Board. Ahhough great sticklers for a wise economy of the public money, still we feel assured that a trifling, indeed, any reasonable, expense would be readily acceded to by every rightly-constituted mind, wh:ch has fur its object to allay the fearful mortality which at times take place in tropical climates, and which, no far ther back than last year, decimated the ranks of the 66th and : 72d Regiments at Barbadoes. STAFF OFFICERS OF PENSIONERS.—Captain Christie having been removed from Taunton to the newly-created division of Deptford, London district, Captain Donelan has been appointed to succeed him at the former place, and Major Farmer, from Stockport, is to go to Armagh in place of Captain Donelan. Captain Story, of the 38th Regiment, is appointed to Stockport. ARMY IN IRELAND. —Exercise and 13111 practice ground has been hired at the following stations for the use of the troops, viz.:—Belfast, Belturbet, Naas, Ne nagh, Enniskillen, Armagh, and Cork. .uivid end Amount Name of company. per of Paid, Pro e.

Young ladies, bewitchingly attired in pink bonnets and French visites, and showily-dressed gents," the aim of whose existence appears to be that of rattling through the polka or the schottische with the velocity of a spinning jenny, nightly assemble at Ore morne, in immense numbers—their happy, self-satisfied visages, with the merry laugh, and lively prattle of their fair companions, affording a fund of inexhaustible enjoy ment to the Brothers Cheryble, who are tempted now and then by the splendour of the season, to abandon the dingy lanes, and never-ceasing turmoil of the still dingier city, for a sail on the river, and a stroll amidst the shady groves and tastefully planted walks of these delightfully situated and well arranged grounds. Nor are the juvenile part of the community, whose joyous scream of delight as a bril daring grenadi er liant rocket illumines panta the surrounding I t housand surrounding firma The battle and the br years firmament, or a " Flag th a t' s b raved a On the dizzy heights of the f e o z r e t ' ress of Moultan, a dd s greatly to the spirit of the scene, much leas their attendance; and one can hardly wonder tir ' eartoltsin since, irrespective of the beauties which nature and art have bestowed on the place, there are all kinds and de scriptions of amusement, from cricket and bowls, from archery and gymnastics, up to stage representations and musical performances—in fact there is something to please every taste. Then, again, for the contemplative mind, mind, there is a graphic panoramic representation California, a truthful though ideal illustration of a woodman's hut, buried in the gloomy solitude of an American prarie, with some admirably executed works in sculpture. These are the attractions to be witnessed in daylight, but when the shades of evening have closed in, there is a vocal and instrumental concert, a Ballet d'Action, and La Danse al Fresco, to while away the time till the Storming of Moultan, a spirit stirring affair—a long series of rational entertainments. We mast not omit making a passing allusion to a change which has been made in the mode of publishing the bill of fare. Now, instead of a flimsey sheet, you are sup plied with a neatly got up book, in a pamphlet form, bearing the tide of the " Theatrical Programme; or, L'Entre-acte," which contains some readable and amusing matter, besides a glowing description of the establishment. Altogether, these gardens present many novel and at ractivo features, and those who take plea sure—and who is there that does not—in healthful recreations, would experience no disappointment in paying them a visit. SWIMMING EXTRAORDINARY.—A singular feat of swimming took place lately at Hincksey, William Aldridge, a whitesmith and bellhanger, of Oxford, undertook for a wager to swim across Hincksey stream, at a part where the water is twenty yards wide and eighteen feet deep, with his hands and legs tied together, and he performed the task with apparent ease, and much to Cho astonishment of all the spec tatervi—Bristol JArti.curY.

He then moved that a rate of Is. 6d. in the pound should be made. The proposition having been agreed to, a church-rate of two-pence was carried, on a division by the casting vote of the chairman. A rate of 10d. in the pound, for the improvement-rate, the expen diture for which required about 2,2001., having been carried, the mooting separated. THE IRON TRADE OF SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE. — There is as yet no improvement in the iron trade, nor any immediate prospect of it. The :production of the district has been greatly diminished, and the withdrawal of the ordinary amount of money heretofore in circula tion amongst the operatives has caused considerable difficulty and distress amongst a great number of per son?. The coal trade is also suffering from depression, and a meeting of the masters was held at the beginning of this week, when it was resolved to shorten the time of labour, and limit it three or four times a week, rather than reduce the wages.

THE DISABILITIES OF THE JEWS. Mr. ANDERTON rose to move " That this Court do petition Parliament to remove the disabilities of the Jews from sitting in the House of Commons." Mr. WIRE seconded the motion. The motion was agreed to amidst loud acclamations, and the Remcmbrancer was directed to apply to a Peer of Parliament to present the petition to the House of Lords.

TROOPS FROM INDIA.—CHATHAM, JUNE 21.—Last night the following detachments of regiments serving in India arrived at the Invalid Depot, Fort Pitt :—one private of the 3d Light Dragoons, six men uf the Oth root, three ,eciceacct. and throe privates of the 32c1, twenty-three privates of the 53d, one sergeant and one private of the 61st, and one sergeant and thirteen privates of the 98th Regiment, under command of Lieutenant Drought, R. Croasdaile, of the 61st, with seven women and sixteen children; and after medical inspection by the chief medical officer, Dr. M. Henry, seven teen were sent into the hospital. The whole of the troops are from the Sutlej, and landed at Gravesend from the ship Trafalgar, Captain Robson. The ship sailed from Calcutta on the 11th of February, and put in at the Cape on the 15th of April, where she remained four days. The number of casualties on board were seven previous to the ship arriving at the Cape. Captain T. Hussey Burgh, of the 61st, died on board, and at the Cape private Ratcliffe, of the 53d, fell down the companion into the hold of the vessel and was killed. The following soldiers died on the voyage :—Private P. Re mington and private Joseph M'Grath, both of the 10th Foot; private John Driscoll, of the 29th ; private Hugh Hughes, of the 32d, and private J. Owen, of the 53d. Those troops that did not require medical treatment were sent to St. Mary's Invalid Depot for examination by a Chelsea board. The 17th Regiment will arrive at Chatham in two divisions; the first division under command of Brevet Lieutenant- Colonel M'Pherson, comes in on Friday, the 22d ; and the head-quarters, under command of Lieutenant-Colonel Stoyte, arrives on Saturday, the 23d. The strength of the corps is as follows :—four field officers, ten captains, twenty subalterns, five staff, forty-seven sergeants, sixteen drummers, and 738 rank and file. DEATH OF " THE BARD OF COLOUR."—OD ' Tuesday morning, between ten and eleven o'clock, Robert Rose, a West Indian, who is the author of .everal poems, and is known as " the bard of colour," lied suddenly, at the Salford lock-ups, under the in fluence of a fit of delirium tremens. For some time past, ae has been very intemperate in his habits, more espe cially durieg the last three weeks, and on the evening of Saturday last, he is said to have drank the almost incredible quantity of a pint of whiskey, a pint of brandy, two quarts of ale, and three bottles of porter; and on Sunday morning, the servant of the house where he lodged, in St. Stephen-street, fetched him acme more liquor. For seven or eight days previ ously to this, he is said not to have been in bed at all. Ind to have taken no food since Friday last. On Mon day evening last, he had been spending the evening with some friends at the Manor Inn, Salford, and at twelve ~'clock was taken home by a friend in a drunken state. On getting home, however, he behaved in a very violent manner, and eventually turned out into the street, where he commenced to undress himself. A police-officer was ent for upon this, and he tried to persuade Rose to go home, and behave quietly. He would not, however, do so, and was altogether so violent that the officer was obliged to take him to the lock-ups. He was brought up before the magistrates at the Salford Borough Court on the following morning, when it was so evident from his behaviour that he was labour ing under delirium tremens, that ho was re manded back to the cell, and notice was given to the relieving officers of the Salford union, that they might remove him to the workhouse, in order that he might afterwards be sent to the lunatic asylum. Mr. Dean had accordingly visited him, and he was remaining in the cell until his removal cou ld be effected, under the charge of twoodic.ers, when his violence suddenly subsided, and he appeared gradually to sink. The chief constable, on being informed of the state in which he was, sent for medical assistance, but before his arrived he had expired. An inquest was held upon the body last evening, before Mr. Henshall, deputy-coroner for this division of the county, when a verdict of " Foun4 dead" was returned, the jury at the same time adding the expression of their opinion that his death was caused by the excessive drinking of ardent spirits.—Manchester Guardian. DEATH FROM ASIATIC CHOLERA IN READING.— We regret to state that a decided and fatal case of this disease occurred in Reading, in a wharf near Blake's bridge, which, as many of our readers know, is at the back of the county gaol. The patient was a married woman named Bowman, aged twenty-three years. It appears that about three weeks ago the man Bowman, his wife, and a family of three little children came from Wokingham, l o d g ing in a mi sera bl e loft over a stable, sur and the parents found employment in bark-strippin g on offal heaps and close t o t h e wa t er . S oon after arr ival they w ere a ll more or less affected the wharf, roundedtheir i b r y by sickness, except the deceased, but no one applied for medical assistance until Wednesday last, when the youngest child (eighteen months old) was brought to Mr. Walford, surgeon, suffering from low fever, after an attack of vomiting, &c. Mr. Walford prescribed end the child grew better ; but on Thursday night the u n f or t unate mot h er symptoms of the same kind. night o and until nin e o ' c l oc k , a nz y et idu m uw o e i r dt n i i i t n hv g ui lweahnleltn Bowman went to Mr. y Sw e ha s es t yesterday Wal ford. That gentleman was out and engaged in a case he could not leave, but the man finding him, was sent on to Mr. Vines, who immediately prescribed, and paid the greatest attention to the case. At two "'clock in the afternoon Mr. Walford joined Mr. Vines in his exertions, but between three and four o'clock the poor woman expired. The body was interred this morning very early in the Cemetery, and the family have been removed. They had been, as may be sup• posed, in a state of great destitution, and the external circumstances were such as to account for the aggra vated nature of the attack.—Berkshire Chronicle. F OREIGN FRUITS AND V EGETABLES.—Every sea sonable variety of fruits and vegetables has now begun to arrive in large quantities from several of the conti nental states, including more particularly Holland and France. The vessel Magnet, from Rotterdam has brought 69 baskets of new potatoes, 18 baskets of gooseberries, and 4 baskets of cucumbers ; the Soho, from Antwerp, 20 baskets of vegetables, 5 baskets of strawberries (a novel and interesting article of supply from the continent), and 50 baskets of various other kinds of fruit ; the Rainbow, from Rotterdam, 565 baskets of new potatoes, 301 baskets of gooseberries, 16 bas kets of cucumbers, and 7 baskets of cherries ; the Columbine, from Havre, 29 baskets of green peas, 7 baskets of new potatoes, and 373 baskets of various kinds of fruit; the Batavier, from Rotterdam, 460 baskets of new potatoes, 3 baskets ofcucumbers, 17 baskets of cherries. 19 baskets of gooseberries, and some packages of melons and vegetables of different kinds; the Sir Edward Banks, from Ostend, a quantity of new potatoes; the Ocean, from Rot terdam, 1,327 baskets of new potatoes, 231 baskets of gooseberries, 158 baskets of cherries, and 238 baskets of currants and other fruit ; the City of Better dam, from Rotterdam, 140 bags and 362 baskets of new potatoes, 4 baskets of cucumbers, and 451 baskets of gooseberries ; the Antwerpen, from Ant werp, 147 baskets of cherries, 3 baskets of strawberries, and 6 baskets of new potatoes; and the Venezuela, from Havre, 589 baskets of various kinds of fruits, the pro duce of France. These extensive supplies of fruits and vegetables from abroad must, doubtless, be an important addition to the profuse supplies of home-growth in the metropolitan markets at the present time. DUTY ON PAPER.—Messrs. W. and R. Chambers, of Edinburgh. have presented a petition 'to the House of Commons against the paper duties. In the course of the document they state, that they had abandoned a perio dical work which had a sale of 80,000 copies weekly, be cause of its being unprofitable ; whilst the duties would have made a very high remuneration for their capital and labour. Another fact which they impress upon the House is, that in five years they have paid for printing paper 63,4251,, of which 14,335 was exacted as Excise duties. And 'lastly, they point out an ;anomaly which only requires, we think, to be properly known to secure a remedy in some shape or other. It is, that works can be printed in the Isle of Man on paper duty free ; and gh l t e h ia n s e ri t da t l i t t y l i o r y e el t e i b ak a te k t t l i . o n n f t g t that such works are i n t ro d uce d in great quantitie s i n t o va is t d oha o net n s tsmh—eu next ag session.ngr el em a r advantage the hs p ef r nap a oi rr c we t t i s c rea a bnd l et l ei y ntrh.g e e q rm u le i at e against the tax from all qua rters ca n f a il to secure k ilo hope. 124 45% SHORT CRAFTERS ON KISSING._When a Bahl mare girl is kissed she says she is taking chloroform, and remains imensible as long as the operation lasts.

B. B. Cabbell, and the petitioner, Mr. R. T. Crucifix (a subscriber to the charity), for the purpose of declaring the trusts upon which the funds of the charity were to be held by the trustees; and that the Muster might be di rected, in settling such deed, to make provision for keep ing up the number of trustees appointed, as any of them should from time to time die, or otherwise cease to act. The petition was presented by Mr. Crucifix, on 13,tialf of himself and all others the subscribers to the charity called " The Asylum for Worthy Aged and Decayed Freemasons," except the five defendants. The charita ble association was formed in 1835, by several of the brethren of the order of freemasons, and others, arid considerable sums had been subscribed for the support of the charity, the management and direction of which were vested in a committee of the subscribers, but with out any deed of trust. The present funds consisted of about 2,066/., which was vested in the funds in the de fendant's names. In 1845, one of the defendants was removed from his office of trustee, by a decree of the Court; and the other defendants declining to act, a re terence was made to the Master to appoint five new trustees. The Master had appointed Lord Southamp ton, Lord Aboyne, Colonel Anson, Mr. Cabbell, and the petitioner trustees. Mr. Elderton appeared for the petitions, Mr. Goren consenting on the part of the trustees. The order was made accordingly. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, June 23. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before tho LORD CHIEF BARON and a Special Jury.) NOTTIDGE V. RIPLEY AND ANOTHER. This was an action of trespass by a maiden lady against her brother-in-law, and another person, occupy ing the position of her trustee, for an assault and false imprisonment. The defendants pleaded not guilty, and also a plea in justification, alleging that the plaintiff was a person of unsound mind, dangerous to herself and others, and that they had, therefore, caused her to be placed and kept under restraint, using no more violence. than Was necessary for her safe custody, which was the trespass now complained of. Mr. Cockburn (with whom was Mr. Montague Smith) conducted the case for the plaintiff; and Sir F. Thesiger (with Mr. Crowder and Mr. Bovill) represented the de fendants. It appeared from the opening statement of the plain tiff's counsel, as well as the testimony of the witnesses, that the plaintiff is one of five sisters, and the only one now unmarried, and that, up to the close of the autumn of 1846, she resided with her mother at Rose-hill, in Suffolk. The plaintiff is, and her sisters, previous to their respective marriages, were, possessed of fortunes in their own right, amounting to about 6,0001., invested in the Government funds. Three of the plaintiff's sisters were married about the same time to three per sons, named Price, Cobb, and Thomas, who were members of a sort of religious community, known as the " Lampeter Brethren," who entertain peculiar views upon religious subjects, and amongst other things denied the efficacy of prayer, and did not think the Sabbath entitled to any particular respect or observance. A number of persons belonging to this community, amongst whom are the brothers-in-law of the plaintiff, Price, Cobb, and Thomas, and their respective wives, have lately established them selves in a large building at Charlidge, in Somerset shire, which is called " Agapemone," or " The Abode of Love ;" but before this establishment was prepared fur them they travelled through different parts of the country. At the close of the year, 1846, the plaintiff, who, it appeared, was particularly attached to her sisters (Mrs. Price and Mrs. Cobb), left her mother's residence, and went to the west of England, and in company with one or both of her sisters successively visited and resided roe some time at Weymouth, Bridgewater, and Spaxton. Before the " Agapemone" was completed and fitted for the reception of the present occupiers, a Mrs. Prince and the plaintiff had lodgings at Spaxton, at the house of a person named Waterman, and it was whilst the plaintiff was residing at this place the occurrence took place which occasioned the present action. In November, 1846, the defendant Ripley, who is brother-in-law of the plaintiff, and engaged in business at No.ll, Great Tower street, London, accompanied by the other defendant, proceeded to the cottage where the plaintiff was living, and having obtained an entrance by the back of the house, went into the room where she was sit ting, and laying hold of her, dragged her out of the house, notwithstanding her struggles and screams, and forced her into a carriage, without either bonnet or shawl, having nothing on her feet but carpet slippers, and then drove off as fast as they could. Eventually they brought the plaintiff to London, when they proceeded to place her in a lunatic asylum belonging to a Dr. :still well. Here she was kept, notwithstanding her appeals to the heads of the hoase, from November, 1846, to January 1848, when she effected her escape, and wrote to her relatives at Cambridge. Mr. Cobb, one of her brothers-in-law, instantly came up to London, and met the plaintiff at an hotel where she was staying after her escape from the lunatic asylum. He accompanied her to the railway, with the intention of conveying her back, but on their arrival at the Farriegclon-road sta tion, one of Dr. 6tillweli's keepers met them, and in sisted upon re-conveying the plaintiff to the asylum. Mr. Cobb accompanied the plaintiff and keeper, but when he got to the place he was turned out, whilst the lady was kept. The relative, having now ascertained where the plaintiff was, applied to the commissioners in lunacy, by whom an inquiry was instituted, of which the result was the order for her release. After the plaintiff had obtained her release, through the interven tion of the lunatic commissioners, she proceeded to Char lidge, and took up her abole at the " Agapemone," where she is now residing. The action was brought to recover compensation in damages for taking her by force from Spaxton, and her subsequent detention in Dr. Still well's establishment. Two or three witnesses were called in the first instance to depose to the actual circumstances attending the re moval of the plaintiff from Spaxton, and to show that the defendants were the parties by whom her removal was effected. It was expressly admitted, however, by the defendant's counsel, at an early stage of the trial, that they were the persons who had authorised the plaintiff's removal. The Rev. Louis Price, the brother-in-law, of the plaintiff, deposed as follows:—I was married to a sister of the plaintiff in June, 1845. I have known the plaintiff since 1844. There has always been a great intimacy between the sisters. The plaintiff came at the end of 1845 to stay with us at Weymouth. We removed to Bridgewater. There is another sister married to Mr. Cobb. Eventually we all went to Charlidge. I had great opportunities of seeing the state of the plaintiff's mind. I and my wife dwell at the " Agapemone," and Mr. and Mrs. Cobb also. It is considered as " a private family," entertaining religious views of our own, and in those views the plaintiff concurred. There was no un soundness of mind about her. She was very gentle, quiet, and lady-like. I was not at Spaxton when she was taken away. We did not know for some time after where she had been taken to. We heard in 1848, be fore April, where she was. Mr. Cobb went up to see her, and I went up in consequence of the miserable let ter she wrote to us. I went to the defendant Ripley's, but not to the asylum. I wrote several letters to the lunacy commissioners, the first on the 9th of April, 1848, and she was liberated in the next month. notis not an a s a s oci ati religious on. notbut a a ,C, privateross- Cross-examined—Ours ain family," and OursO u rs religious society. We do n,,t call ourselves by any name from that time the family has been living in " Agapeinone.* eme(l now, but we at one time called ourselves " Lampeter Brethren." This family has existed for a year or two, and Before that we used to go about the country together and preached anywhere--in the open air, if we could not I get a house. We made announcements of our arrival. God is the head of our family, and no one under God. It was not a part of our belief that God was manifested in the flesh of any individual amongst us; no, nor any such blasphemy. %Ve did not pa) any peculiar homage to Mr. Prince. If a person said that he was God incarnate, he was not of sound mind, or at all events he was under a delusion. I was ordained a priest of the Church of England, and had a curacy in South Wales. Prince, after he left Charlidge, was curate at Stoke, in Suffolk, near to Mrs. Nottidge. The bishop dis missed me from my curacy. I cannot tell of my own knowledge that Prince was also dismissed. Mr. Thomas was ordained a deacon of the Church of Eng land, andiMr. Starkic was the rector of Charlidge, but has ceased to be so some years. We at length established "the family" at Charlidge, in the " Agapeinone." I had no money, nor had the others any until we married the Misses Nottidge. My curacy in Wales was 70/. a year. Mr. Rouse, the attorney for the plaintiff, is one of " the family," and lives at " Agapemone." There are 50 or 60 in " the family" circle living in the house. We have horses and carriages and live in good style. There has been a farm purchased. There was a chapel there ; b u t we have converted that into a dwelling. Some of our friends are in the Bank, and some elsewhere. We ab jure prayer altogether as a matter of religion, but we pray by offering up praises to God, by a life of goodness to God, and by outward manifestation, such as singing, and by healthy exercises, and "hockey" is one. I con sider that all we do is to the " glory of God." That is the commandment of God. I cons id er t h at we are glorifying God when we eat and drink. Every one does as he pleases on the Sunday. We make no difference between that day or any other day. All play at "Hockey," females as well as males. I married Harriet, 1 Mr. Thomas married Agnes, and Mr. Cobb married Clara. We were all married on the same day at Swan sea. The five sisters were at Charlidge, to be present at the opening of the chapel. I was married on the 9th of July 1845, and saw my wife at Brighton in 1844. I never preached on the sea shore at the time I was a mi nister of the Church of England. I knew them before. Those living in the house aro " the family," but we call every one a " brother" who lives in God. In answer to the CHIEF BARON, the witness said, if it be true that once a priest is a priest for ever, then I am still of the Church of England. Cross-examination continued —I saw my wife in 1844 at Brighton, but never went to her mother's house there; and after they left Brighton I then corresponded with her. My wife is about 40, and is older than the plain tiff. The day after my wife went to CharHdge I do not know that Prince told her that it was the will of God that she should marry Thomas, and Clara that she should marry Cobb. lie never told ma so. I made her an offer. I considered that it was the will of God that we should marry, but I did not tell her so. The five ladies were at Charlidge, and in one day thr ,, e of teem agreed to marry three of "the family." The young ladies came there with Thomas and Turner, two of " the family." the day After their arrival the matters . - Were completed- tar 'our .- marriage,t.--- The. day on wh 7 ch the earn atony was to be perfOrtned I rEeert tth Mr. Princ-, and he di.l not, tell us tha;', three the had cwiet.ted, ";n b. d . -e xe to the will of G',,)," t..e marry Miss .Not.iclge w•e.s present on that. oce,4si,m.

Ido not know that either of th , • ladies ob jected to the marriage taking place until a cotnmunica tion had been made to the mother on the subject. I never heard it said to them tHat they must lead the " Book of Jonah," and then they would see the conse. quence of their disobeying " God's c , mtnancl." I in tended to marry one of them before they came. There were not any marriage settlements made. Each lady had 60001 I have received my share. After the chapel had been opened the plaintiff and the other sister returned to Brighton, and my wife went to Rose hill, her mother's house, to fetch her clothes. Her moth. r was then at Brighton. Mrs. Thcmas also went to Rose-hill, but Mrs Cobb remained behind. In ab , ut a wet k they returned, and then we all went to Swims, a, where the marriage took place, Mrs. Cobb and Mr. Cobb, and I and my wife, are living in the " Agapeua.me." Mr. Prince does not assume the signature of "Amen." I have never seen these letters before. They are not his handwriting that I can tell. I have seen him write, but I cannot give a belief as to these having been written by him, although lam familiar with his writing. It re sembles his writing, however, in some resp , .ets. There are some of "the family " whose writing is very much like Prince's, and I think the letters are from one of those—one of " the family." There are two or three of "the family" who write very much alike. Mrs. 1 3 , ince, Mrs. Starkie, eta]. Mr. Price, write very much alike. Mr. Prince has used the word "Amen," and frequently puts it at the end of the letter, and no other signature, but I do not mean it as a signature. lie puts " Amen "at the end of his letters, but I cannot say that he does so as a signa ture. The plaintiff has been at the " Agapetnone " ever since her return from the asylum. When she came back she made over all her property to Mr. Prince to protect it from any other persons—from the defendants. I knew from her that her property was in the Bank, in her own name. I cannot tell whether Prince has it in his own name in the Bank. I did not know that Miss Nottidge has had a note signed Amen," stating that " the lord had need of 501. for his glory," before she gave the money. We have all our separate properties. The ex penses are paid by the managers; Mrs. Cubb is some times manager, and several others. Whoever wants money can have it. Sir F. THESIGER—What a pleasant establishment. Is there any vacancy?—(A laugh.) Cross-examination continued—So far as I know, the plaintiff pays the expenses of this action. Her money is in the Bank in the name of Mr. Prince, and she can have anything she likes. We have some bloodhounds in the establishment, and we take them out when we like. They were not loose when the attorney's clerk was there. The doors were not locked to prevent him from corning in any more than against any one else. I don't know that subpcenas were thrown over the wall. The plaintiff does not play at "hockey," but she some tinas rides out in the carriage and four. When Mrs. Prince was living at Waterman's, Mr. Prince was at Weymouth. We do not all kneel down in a circle round Mr. Prince. Re-examined—l was dismissed from my curacy about 1844 or 1845. It was nut in consequence of my holding Peculiar opinions, but because I had held certain meet ings for religious purposes of which the bishop did not approve. At that time I had not preached in the open air. All our singing is the singing hymns, and our in strumental music is of a sacred character. There are hundreds of the same community besides those who are in the " Agapemone." We breakfast and take all our meals in the same room together. We have a large room. Our praises of God are by singing sometimes in the open air, and at other times in the rooms. It is a very large building. They have never made an attempt to make out my wife to be mad, nor that I was mad, or Mrs. Thomas, or Mrs. Cobb. The plaintiff told us what the defendants had been doing with her money whilst she was shut up—namely, Mr. Ripley had taken it contrary to her wish or will, and that the reason of her wanting it to be placed in other hands was, that she would not let him take it, aLd so it was put to Mr. Prince's name. Mr. William Cobb, the next witness, corroborated the testimony previously given ; and The Learned COUNSEL for the plaintiff having an nounced that there were several witnesses in attendance, the conclusion of the trial was postponed until Monday (this day). POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGII-STREET. George Burnham, shopman to Mr. Stockbridge, silk mercer, 34, Oxford street . , was summoned for indecently assaulting Miss Eliza Heather, a girl nine years of age, daughter of a solicitor living in Camden-town. It ap peared that the young lady was taken by her mother to the shop where the defendant was, for the purpose of being fitted with a visite. The defendant tried this gar nient on the young lady while her mother turned her back for a minute or two to examine an article of dress, and having made a purchase she left the shop. On reach ing the street the child told her mother that the defen dant had put his hands beneath her clothes when he tried the visite on her. The mother was very indignant, and returned to the shop and demanded the defendant's name. The defendant said he was a married man, and it was not likely that he should asault the chill when he could get plenty of girls ol,ler than she was. The child, however, persisted that he had committed the of fence charged, The defendant denied the charge, and said the mother was dissatisfied with the purchase she had made, and this was the way she had adopted to get back her money. Mr. HARDWICK said he considered the charge proved, and fined the defendant in the highest penalty of 51. and costs. L .4 iIIBETH. Mrs. Ellen Susannah Batley attended before Mr. Nor ton, to support a summons taken out by the parish offi cers of Lambeth against her husband, Mr. Richard Batley, in consequence of his refusing to support her. The husband did not attend, but Mr. Wontner, who appeared for him, reminded Mr. Norton that on the 4th of November last he appeared before his worship to answer a charge similar to the present, and his reply to Mrs. Batley was, that she had cajoled Master Batley, then very little more than nineteen years of age, into a marriage by gross misrepresentations; and his friends, finding that he had become united to a most disreputable person—in fact, a common street-walker--they lost no time in removing him from her residence, and, under the circumstances, the young gentleman having no private income or property apart from his friends, the latter refused to contribute anything to his wife's maintenance. On his (Mr. Norton's) recommendation, they consented to pay her 7s. a week until such time as a divorce could be legally obtained, and this amount was paid to her until Mr. Batley, her husband, had discovered such un equivocal proof of her adultery, that it was impossible he could longer contribute to her support. Mrs. Batley, a fashionably-dressed and good-looking young woman, was here sworn, and deposed that on the 9th of October last, and just one week after her mar riage, her husband was taken away from her house by his friends, and from the beginning of November up to the 6th inst. she had been allowed 73. a week. Since the 6th, however, it had been stopped, and the conse quence was that she had to apply to the parish of Lam beth for assistance, and received 2s. 6d. Mr. Wontner said that as Mrs. Batley was not bound to answer such questions as would criminate herself he should decline cross-examining her, but should call a witness whose testimony would prove beyond a doubt the act of adultery on the part of Mrs. Batley; and having done this he should with confidence call on his worship to dismiss the summons. Mr. Lewis Martin Allen, a coach maker, 303, Albany street, Regent's Park, deposed that as a friend of the family of Mr. Batley, he in the month of Oct. last went to Tunbridge Wells and made inquiries at No. 4, Clarence place, for a Capt. Newton, who Mrs. Batley represented to be her father; but no such person at that or any other time resided there, so that the representations of Mrs. Batley were false. Witness subsequently saw some letters which had been addressed to Cap' sin New ton by Mr. Batley, jun., but which had been returned through the post. On Saturday night, the 6th instant, he (Mr. Allen) saw Mrs. Batley and a gentleman walk ing along Brook-street, West-square, and observing that they had entered No. 140, which is a common brothel, be informed Mr. Batley, who was not far off, of the fact. Mr. Batley and himself soon after entered the same house, and Mr. Batley sent the female who kept it out for some beer. During her absence Mr. Batley, witness, and another person who accompanied them, went up stairs, and, on forcing open the door of the front room on the first floor, they found Mrs. Batley and the man iu bed together. The man, who was stripped to his shirt, jumped out of bed, and p ut hi mself in a fighting attitude to strike Mr. Batley, but witness stepped between them, and told the man that his friend was the husband of the lady then in his company. At this time Mrs. Batley, who was also stripped to her under-dress, and was also in bed, covered her head and face with the bed clothes ; and on her husband attempting to drag off the clothes she slipped out at the foot of the bed and became exceedingly violent, and it was with some difficulty she was kept from striking her husband. Mrs. Batley, who evidently felt it difficult to restrain ber passion during the above statement, declared that the whole affair was a gross conspiracy, that her husband employed the person who had taken her to the house, and said that on the night in question, Mr. Batley had hired a room in the same house, stating, whe he bad done so that ho intended bringing a lady there. Mr. Allen admitted that Mr. Batley had t.ken a room in the house as a mere blind f o r th e p u rpose of detecting his wife, understanding that she had Ix en in t h e con stant habit of going there.

JOHN. THE Cc U N TIFV ItKETS, LIVERPOOL, JUNE 23.—There have been good arrivals since Tuesday of foreign wheat, flour, beans, and Indian corn, but of British produce the supplies are still small. At yesterday's market holders of both wheat and flour evinced much firmness, and a moderate business was effected at the full currency of Tae-day. Oats and oatmeal met a dull sale, but prices were unchanged. There was a steady de man d for barley, beans, and peas at late rates. A fair quantity of Indian corn charged hands, yellow at a decline of 6d per quarter, but fine white corn being scarce, brought an advance of 6d per quarter. To-day the trade is dull, and prices of all articles remain firm at the quotations of yesterday. 111ANcitEsTra, JUNE 23.—Throughout the week a good demand has been experienced for flour, and choice qualities of fresh-made English have readily realised a further improve ment in prices. Oatmeal, on the contrary, has met less in quiry, and the previous currency was with difficulty supported. The arrival of oats from Ireland, and of malt coastwise, at Liverpool and Runcorn, are this week to a moderate amount but trifling of other articles from those sources. From abroad the imports comprise a liberal supply of wheat, beans, and In dian corn, with a fair quantity of barrel flour (in which is in cluded about 2,00) barrels of Canadian), the first to hand this season, and a cargo or two of barley. At our market this morning wheat advanced fully 2d per 701 b. READING, JUNE 23.—Wheat, per quarter, 34s to 60s; bar ley, 25s to 355; oats, 16s to 23s ; beans, 30s to 40s; peas, 30s to 38s.

E—At our market to-day the numbers were —oxen, 356 ; sheep, 1,115 ; lambs , 2,004. There was a small supply of cattle, which caused prices to rise considerably. Best ox beef 53s per cwt., mid dling from 45s to 506 per ditto, sinking the offal. The supply of sheep was large, which caused a fall in price of 2 3 pe r head from last week' s p r i ces. B est quality barely 6d per lb. in the wool, clipped sheep 40 to 5d per lb., sinking the offal. Owing to the number of lambs, which caused a dull sale, lambs down from 2s to 2s 6d per head from last week's prices. Prices varied from 5s to 16s per head, according to quality. Coax, JUNE 22.—We have to report s everal arrivals of, grain laden vessels—pri nc ip a lly ma i ze — an d th es e have had the effect of depressing the market for this article, which must be quoted fully 7s 6d to lOs per ton lower on the week. Our supplies of home grain are so miserably insignificant as not to be worth noticing. We have to report a firmer feeling in prepared and foreign wheat, with but little business. The tendency of oats is downwards, and we have no sales to re port. We have more firmness and animation in flour, and a fair consumptive sale going on, without, however, any actual change in prices. Coarse descriptions continue to be sought after. Indian corn, owing to the recent arrivals, has become a dull sale at a decline of 7s qd to 102 per ton, the business doing, even at the reduction, being very restricted. We quote the extreme asany price of prime Galatz 8/. 7s 6d, but the actual value of that quality is about 81. ss. Pr ices range from 71. 15s up to the last mentioned figure. In dian meal is very little inquired for, although its value has receded proportionably with that of the raw material.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A Dreadful Enlargement of the Knee Cured by Holloway's Pills.—Abram Banks, an elderly man living near the Dry Creek, South Australia, had such a painful affection and enlargement of the knee that he despaired of ever recovering the use of his limbs, the numerous remedies that he made trial of failing to banish or even to mitigate the disease. In this suffering condition he was ad vised to try llolloway's Ointment and Pills, and he com menced a regular application of them, which in a short time effected a complete cure. The Adehide Observer, of the 25th March, 1848, publishes this as one among the many astonish ing cures effected in south Australia by these invaluable Medi cines.—Sold by all Druggists, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, '244, Strand, London.
