LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, July 7. (Bitting& in London, b-fore Mr. Juitice WIGHTJIAN and a Special Jury.) SARTORD V. THE LEGAL AND COMMERCIAL FIRE ASSURANCE SOCIETY. The hearing of thts case was resumed this morning. The defendants' evidence called this morning was directed to show that there were strong reasons for sus pecting that the fire had been occasioned by the procure ment of the plaintiff. The point of this evidence was, that a man was seen coining out of the house at the time of the fire, that the house was, nevertheless, locked up, that the lock was a Chubb leek, and, therefore, not easily opened, and that the key was in the possession of the plaintiff's servant. With respect to the property in the house, a great many witnesses deposed that, from what remained after the fire, it was not of the best sort of trade materials, and that it did not exist in such qtian titles as to justify the amount claimed for the loss. The Witnesses generally stated the amount at about 400/. It Was farther proved that, a little time before the fire, the plaintiff was pressed for money, and had been sued for very small sums. Mr. Sergeant SUEE replied. Mr. Justice WIOHTMAN told the jury that the ques tions to be considered were—first, whether there was evidence to support the plea that the fire hal occurred by the procurement of the plaintqf ; and, secondly, whether the claim sent in so greatly exceeded the real value of the goods on the premises at the time of the fire as to amount to a fraudulent claim. If the first question was answered in the affirmative, there was an end of the else; if in the negative, then the second question would come to be considered. If the claim was fraudulent, then, a ccording to the terms of the p olic y , the plaintiff could not recover. If it was not fraudulent, the verdict must be in his favour. The jury retired forsoree time, and then brought in a finding that the plaintiff did not procure the house to be set on fire, and on that issue found a verdict for the plaintiff. As to the other issue, the jury found that the claim was a fraudulent claim, and on that issue the ver dict was for the insurance company. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, July 7. (Nisi Frius Sittinz at Guildhall, before Lurd Chief Justice WILDE and Special Juriei.) BURTON V. WILSJN AND OTHERS. This was as action of assurnpsit fur work and labour done, the maintenance of which turned upon the con struction of a building contra:'. It was a case of not the slightest public interest. The pListiff was non suited. BARRY v. HILL. This case, in which but little progress had been made at the rising of the Court, was sn action of assumusit, to recovcr a ;:•ortion of the profits male by the defend ant on the talp.u-ififion of pa•ldy, cr rough ice, in cons.:- quwnce of a t!):3 - arnutiica , ion made by the plaintiff to the defendant, at the defPndant's reque.q. COUR 1' OF ENCILEQUER, July 7. (Nisi Prins Sitting at Guildhall. opt'ora the Chief Baron and a Special Jury.) SHIPTON V. LAUNDER. This was an action to recover compensation in da mages for a loss occasioned in the reinival of a large quantity of iron plates and hoops, by ress;n of the al legal ni,gligence of the de:endsm's serv-iffis. Mr. Sergeant Alien, aith Mr. Mil, aNeared for the plaintiff ; Mr. 11 , :rtin, with Mr. Bramwell, for the aefertin% The plaintiff is extensively engaged as a canal carrier, and lu-re a wharf and p!ac of ba,in,ss at the City Canal Ba.in. The defendant is a lighterman re siding at Limehouse. In the month of August last, a quantity of sheet and hoop iron, of the value of 300/., was sent up by canal from Staffifdshire, to be f o r.var , i, ft by a foreign vessel. and the plaintiff employed the def,ndlnt to cativey iron in a barge from tha City Canal basin to the Lon don Dock , , where P,e vess4 was lying which was to take the iron to its foreiga destination. The iron was shipped on board the defendant's barge, at he City Canal, on the 8:h of August las!, and was brought alongside the vessel in it w:]s to he shipped on the 10th of August ; but was there foand to be damaged from wet, a,) that the captain obj , !cted to take it on board, and Yyglesias and Co., of Mark-lane, the London agents of the foreign purchaser, declined to receive it or for ward it to their foreign correspon lents. The iron was, therefore, after some unsuccesjul attempts to riavore the srnoahnrss and polish, returned back to the plaintiff, and thrown on his hand. The depreciation in value occasioned by the injury - was said to be 701., and the carriage by canal, which was also lost to the plaintiff, was 20L, and the present action was brought to recover those two sums. On the part of the defendant it was inshted that he Was wholly blameless, as the herge in which the iron Was brought to the dock was in a perfect state, and the iron itself was covered with three tarpaulins, and care• fully preserved from wet. The dampness which was ob served, it was said, was to be ascribed to an eff,c;, caused by change of temperature, and known in the iron trade as" sweating," and it was admitted by plaintiff's witnesses that the iron when seen in the docks was fit for home consumption, though not available for exportation, and 1 that the depreciation in value did not exceed ten pounds. After the defendant's case was opened, a conference took place between the Learned Counsel, and it was finally agreed to withdraw a juror, an arrangement by which each party bears his own costs. The above was the only special jury case tried during the day, and the Lord Chi,f Baron announced in the course of the day that at the Guildhall sitting, after Michaelmas term, he proposed to reverse the usual order, and proceed in the fir, t instance with the trial of special jury causes, leaving the cmninon jury cases to be tried during the last week of the sitting. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, July 7. (Before Mr. Cormnis,ioner GOULBURN.) IN RE JOSEPH SLATER. The bankrupt, a warehouseman, of 36, Friday-street, camp up to pass his last examination. His debts are 4,3171 and his liabilities 2,7731. Toe assets are—good debts 2671. and stock that has realised 1,2691., but out of the latter amount a sum of 1,0031. is claimed by Mr. William Darby under an execution. Among the prin cipal creditors are—Wessrs. Armitage and Wart, Man chester, 143 L; John Third and Son, Manchester, 421 L; W.

The bankrupt passed his examination. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (Continued from our Afterno )n Edition of Saturday.) THE TRIAL 01 PRINCE GRANATELLI AND OTHERS The Learned Coarisel (Sir F. Kelly) concluled a speech of singular eloquence, by calling upon the jury not to believe the witnesses for the prosecution; at least, such of them as had been taken from the very • dregs of Sicilian society, and expressing a confident hope that the jury, under the direction of his Lordship, would re turn a verdict of not guilty, as it respected all the de fendants. Mr. MONTAGU CHAMBERS, Q C., addressed the jury on behalf of C,ptain Moody. Tney might have supposed from the evidence that in Captain Moody they were try ing an officer holding a commission in the British army. If they thOught that they were greatly mistaken, for he was none other, in truth, than the agent of a great and pavorful steam company organized in this country for purely commercial purposes, and knew no thi6g whatever of nautical terms or a nautical vocation. lie contend , d that the meaning of the word "equip," the most material word in the Act of Parlia ment, was, as taken from a dictionary of English syno nymes, to "furnish necessary materials." How could it be said the furnishing of those vessels in the way described by the witnesses for the prosecution had been such an equipment of those vessels as answered that sensible de finition, or brought the acts of those defendants, and least of all Captain Moody, within the meaning of the Act of Parliament under which this indictment was framed? If an able and meritorious officer like Captain Moody was to be sacrificed under that Act of Parlia ment for acts so innocent as bad been proved against him, the sooner that Act was burnt by the common hangman the better. Mr. Justice COLTMAN summed up the case to the jury. He said the charge against the defendants substantially was, the fitting out a vessel to go out on an expedition on the part of the Sicilian people against the King of the Two Sicilies. The question was, were the fury satisfied that this vessel, the Vectis, was fitted out within her Majesty's dominions for the purpose of sommitting hostilities and being used either as a vessel of war, or as a transport, against the King of the Two Sicilies by the Sicilian people, and that that object was se carried out in the treating this vessel, as brought the ca se within the meaning of the Act of Parliament; no thing more was essential to bring the case within that Act than that the vessel should be one so far prepared s o to be able to go to sea as a sea-going vessel, and capable of receiving a warlike armament on board of her, and that that was done with the int ent of carrying on the hostilities erred to. Th e j ury would have to consider , first o f all,whether there wa s a if com bi na tion for this purpose ; they were satisfied there was a combination o f the nature spoken of, they would have to consider whether these three gentlemen, the defendants, or any one of them, were shown to have been parties to that conspiracy. The jury reti re d a t t wen ty minutes after four o'clock, • And at ten minutes to five o'clock returned into Court • •with a verdict of Not Guilty, as it respected all the prisoners. The verdict elicited some marks of approbation from tbe people in the gallery. ' : POLICE INTELLIGENCE. WORSHIP-STREET on On Saturday, Thomas P ovey , a labourer, employed the Eastern Counties Railway, was broughtu examination, beore Mr. flammill, charged Z i iohaffivi‘tnhai feloniously abstracted a quantity o f s ilk tabaret, of value of 15L, the property of Messrs. Walters and SDI] Bilk-manufacturers in Wilson•street, Fin s b ur y, and three ' men, named Samuel Jones, Joseph Lucas, and James Thompson, were charged with having feloniously re ceived the same, well knowing i to be stolen. , It appeared from the evidence that the property in question was stolen from a package. consigned t o t h e prosecutor, during its transit trom Braintree on the 2 1 nst., in one o the luggage trains of the above railway, and although immediate inrorenation of the robbery was communicated to the pile- , every effort to elucidate the transaction, or obtain any clue to the missing grope: ty, was wholly unsu .cessful until about ten days since, when it Was discovered that the granter part of it was ex posed for sale in /h.. window of Messrs. Hampton and Russell, furniture dealers, in Leicester-square. Inspector Shackell, of the railw a y police, accompanied by Sergeant Teakle, both of whom were dressed in plain clothes, ac cordingly proceeded there, and upon asking the price of the article, which was exhibitEd to them by a shopman, the latter informed them that it was 3!:, 9J, a yard, but lat the same moment one of the partners entered, and offered to sell it to them at the rate of 3s. 31. The officers then stated who they were, and on aeking Mr. Russell, the partner, how he became possessed of the property, he replied that he had purchased it of a man named Jones, and produced v. bill of sale relating to the transaction. Having seccred the property, and after some difficulty ascertained the residence of Jones, they proceeded there, and in answer to their questions he ad mitted having sold the article, but he had acted in the matter as the agent of Lucas, who was thereupon appre hended, and in the first instance he denied all knowledge of the property, but on being confronted with Jones, at length acknowledged he had rect ived it from the prisoner Thompson, who, being captured in his turn, declared that he had been directed to dispose of the silk by the prisoner Povey, upon which the latter was sought out and secured, when he alleged that he had et en employed by a truck ' driver, named Bolton, to sell the property at any price he could procure for it. The man Bolton, however, volun tarily came forward, and positively denied all participa tion in the matter, or that he had ever seen the silk until it was shown to him by the officer. Mr. Hampton, of the firm of Hampton and Russell, stated that, on the 14th ult., the prisoner Jones came to their warehouse, and offered them for sale the goods in question, consist. , ing of upwards of 42 yards, for which he demanded 3s. a yard, but observing that the article had been cut into four pieces, and was soiled and crumpled, they refused to allow him more than Is. 3d. per yard, which he ulti m tttly accepted, and witness considered that to be the fair value of the article. George Cheeseman, the prosecutor's foreman, and Abraham Brown, the weaver of the goods, identified the property, and estimated the value of it at si. '3d. per yard. Mr. Heritage and two other solicitors addressed the magistrate on behalf of the three last-named prisoners, contending that there was no evidence to establish a guilty knowledge on the part of their clients; but Mr. HammiLL considered it was solely a question for a jury, and ordered the whole of the prisoners to be committed for trial. THE ARMY AND NAVY. (From the United Service Gazette.)

SIEGE OPEMATI , NS AT CHATHAM —The siege opera tions at Chruhrtui it is expecr,ed will take place anout the terminati:in of the present tnoidn. - CHATHAM GARRISoN —We are hrppy to hear, from the last, communication we have received, that C. , lonel Wean) is progressing towards recovery, and that his medical atteudants have given a favourable opinion upon his case. GRAND REVIEW IN DUBLIN —lt iS expected that a review of all the troops in the Duolia districts will take place during her Mjesty's WAR•OFFICE APPOINTMENTS.—The Right Hon. Fox Millie, Secretary as War, has appointed R. C. Kirby, Esq., to be Chiet Examiner of Army Accounts, in suc cession to El ward Marshall, Lg., who has retired. It is most likely that the Grecian, 16, paid off a short time since at Davenport, from the Brazils, and now re fitter], will be put into commission next week for another term of service. _ _ _ SANITARY PRECAUTIONS AFLOAT.—The Admiralty have issued strict injunctions to the respective Com manders-in-Chief at the Home Ports, that a medical officer shall vi,it each ship in ordinary at least once during the day, whether his services be required on board or not.

RELIGIOUS EXPEDITION.—The Emperor of Morocco having solicited from the English Government the means of conveying two of his sons and suite to Mecca on a pilgrimage to the shrine of the Mussul man's prophet, the Admiralty have acceded to his request, and have commissioned the Growler, steam sloop, at Devonport, for the purpose. Captain Studdart, it is expected, will be ready to leave England by the 26th inst., for Tangier, to embark the Princes of Morocco, and after he has conveyed them to Mecca, and back again to Morocco, will join Sir W. Parker's squad ron, for permanent service in the Mediterranean. We have to announce the death of Major-General Hugh Percy Davidson, at his seat, Stanley Hall, Shrop shire. The deceased was formerly Lieut.-Colonel of the sth West India Regiment. MINING INTELLIGENCE. tFrom the Mining Journal.) The share market has not been brisk this week althouV, in the aggregate, perhaps, the amount of business transacted has not fallen tar short of an average. The reports from the mines generally are of an encouraging character, and all that is required to create business is an advanced standard fur copper, and im proved price for tin. The ample statistical details of the produce of English and foreign mines during the past quarter must] be con-idered of much importance, as enabling a clearer and more correct opinion being formed of the mineral market than has hitherto been possible. The total sales of copper ores for the quarter amount to-Cornwall, 3(1,631 tuns, realising 187,1671. 15s. 6d.; and Swansea, 14 925 tons, producing 206 206/. Bs. 6d. The extent of business transacted by the principal smelters can be im igined from their public purchases of copper ores alone, by two houses, amounting to-Messrs. Williams, 105 2411.; and Messrs. Vivians, 91.7801. We have also given a carefully prepared detail of the dividends from profits on mines paid to share holders from lit of January to the 30th of June, which will be found to amount to 85.2741. on thirty-one English mines ; 1.3751. on Irish; 5,0001. on Welsh ; 30,690/. on foreign mines. During the past fortnight a depression has taken place in Devon Great Consol Shares-consequently, several have changed hands at different prices. An improvement has since been made at Wheal Josiah, in the 80 fm. level west, where the lode is now estimated worth 150/. per fm. Buyers continue for Mary Ann shares, and some bu siness has been done-94 tons were sold last week, realising nearly 1,400/4 60 tons were raised within the month, and 34 tons were the accumulation of several months, which obtained a far better price than antici pated, and not the raisings of two months, as then inad vertently stated. Buyers are to be found for Alfred Consols, West Caradon, East Wheal Rose, and South Frances, at limited quotations. Shares in the following mines have been transacted since our lasts-Devon Great Consols, South Frances, Trelawney, West Caradon, East Tamar, Mendip Hills, Keswick, Mary Ann, Devon and Courtney, South Mol ton, Kingsett and Bedford, Calstock, Alfred Consols, Bedford United, Wellington, Tamar Consols, Camborne Consols, &c. The annual meeting of the Asturian Company was held on Saturday last; but, in consequence of the nego tiations pending for the sale of the property, it was deemed advisable to adjourn to the 31st inst., when the directors considered they should be in a position to sub mit to the proprietors for their consideration offers for their property from the Duke de Rianzares, as well as other parties who entertained the matter. The balance sheet was prepared, and open to the inspection of the shareholders, but would not be published before the ad journed meeting took place. At the West Caradon meeting, a profit of 1,135/. 15s. 9d. appeared for the month of March and April, and a dividend of 50s. per share was declared. The sales of copper amounted to 5,564/. 3s. 9d., and a balance of 1,7681. 18s. 4d., carried to the credit of the next account. At the East Wheal Rose meeting, a dividend of 4,4801. was declared on the workings of March and April, amounting to 351. per share. The sales of silver lead ores realised 12,6481., leaving a balance of 2,7171. 4s. sd. in the purser's hands. From private letters we learn 1 that the mine is looking remarkably well, no official re port appearing with the st atement of accounts. n p t e h r l y s h account s d was ec l a h r e e l d d onStohuet2hclW, v‘ h h e e a n i ad Frances i v e for April and May workings.

As at the end of the currenti month,there was a considerable balance of assets over liabilities in resiwet of the operations, the meeting was adjourned to the 28th Aug declaration and p a y ment of a ciinvsidt, reports of the prospe cts o f the mine e dividend i. c e ht ) g nh h sei l m e a r y d gnr o aa f gt ie t , ry h . e s ir.g The sales of copp+ i ore, I this year, amount to 4.2971. 31. 6d. At the Craddock Moor meeting, a balance of 361. 133. 3d. stood ia favour of adventur e r s . The agent's , -- re port is favourable as to future p ros p ec t s , especially e regards Vivi-in'a lode, which affords, f r o m the discovee ris made, every encouragement for more energetic ope , rations. At the Gonamena meeting. the halanc' , in favour of adventurers was found to be 461. 9s. 7d.; but a call of 103. per share was deemed meseary to meet the cur. THE SUN, LONDON, rent expenditure. The prospects of the mine are repre sented as progressing, and more favourable than they have been for some time past, • The Balleswidden account for March and April shows a balance against adventurers of 491. 12s. 6d. The Bow Hack account. for the three months ending March, leaves a debit of 1391. 7s. 6d. against the adven turers. At the Lewis annual meeting, the statement of ac counts shows a balance against the company of 2 2351. 12s. 9d.; whilst the credit taken for new engine, ore at grass, and subsist i❑ April paid, gives a balance in favour of the company. The reports are highly favourable, and it has been estimated that 11,200/. worth of ore has been discovered, and laid open. We learn that for some time past the returns from East Crowndale have not been at all commensurate with the estimates. Some dissatisfaction, consequt-ntly, has been expressed by the directors, who, it is reported, in tend, by an improved system of manag.ment, to place the mine under a better arrangement, so as to afford a profitable development. New works are in course of erection at St. Austell for smelting the tin of the Great Pelgooth and other mines of the neighbourhood. In foreign mines there have been some transactions, especially in United Mexicans, which have been done at an advance. Asturians have been very much sought alter since the meeting of Saturday. St. John del Rey, Guadalcanal, Copiapo, Australasian, National Brazilian, and North British Australasian, have changed hands. The Imperial Brazilian letters are to the 30th April. The gold report shows the returns, from 13'..11 April to date of dispatches—Congo Soto, 12 lbs. 0 oz. 1 d wt.; Banana], 81bs. 8 on . . 5 dwts. = 20 lbs. 8 ozs. 6 dwts.: making together, from the Ist January, 144 lbs. 5 ozs. 15 dwts., and advises the transmission of 70 lbs. 6 oz:. 5 dwts. 14 grs., value about 3,0001., which has been duly received. The manager's report is furnished under most discouraging appearanc'ss as to future prospects, and the only favourable point at present appears to be in the Big Pump vein. But, under a more energetic and practical management, which will take place in a little more than two months from the present time, we anticipate more favourable representations. After a return of 204 lbs. of gold in fifteen days, we do not calculate on so sudden a transition as this spiritless report assumes. The Copiapo advices are to the 30th of April, and are very lengthy, and particularly interesting—indeed, the prospects of this company are now gratifying, and we hope, before long, they will be paying regular dividends. The Belgownie, with 454 tons of copper ore for the com pany, arrived at Cork oa the 4th. The National Brazilian advices are to the 26th April. The produce from Cocaes, from the 1311 to the 23d of April —mks. 5 5 7 4; Cuiba, from 6th to 26th April, 4 1 7 17: total mks. 10 7 6 21. The report states, samples have been Early taken from the stopes in the new ground. west ef the elide, and the least productive has been found to give two oitavas per ton, and others equal to 4 1-6th per ton; only 4 ims. of the lode has been opened, frem which the sainpl'-a were taken, and the lode being 6 tries. wide, the most reasonable calchations are that the whole will prove equally productive. The St. John del Rey letters are to the 17th April, and the geld extracted to that day (bring twenty days' working) appears to be 15,125 oitavas, from 821.05 cubic feet of 3111,(1. In consequence of a deficiency of la• bourers, the usual supply of new work has not been re turned, and they have had recourse to the retuse heap, to keep the stamps in operation. The Alien report for the menth of May estimated the returns at 1901 toes of ore, pro lucing 11 86 t..us of tine copper. Improvements have taken piece ie the Itelpas Mine, bat in consequence of toe sudden chai , g, from winter to z , urnrner, the great influx of w :ter, arising hum the thaw of snow, has obliged the msnag.-m-nt t, sus nerd all operatieee in tee deep levels for a few dabs. At the United Mines, Old Mines, and I , lichell's, the pro Mee kiss b?eu on the in crease. At Ryper's and Manear's, though the is orkings sre at present poor, the prospects are good, and a favour able chsuge is shortly expected. At Carl Johsn's pro fitable returns are yi , ll,d; the monthly produce, though small, is unu•ually good. The priAtn., on the whole. has been superior to that hitherto rep red. The intro ductien of the tribute syseen having obviated the nec, salty of carrying on the expnsive dressing opera Lions, there will be little' work to be performed during the summer at tee stamps or separation, and the hands forme, ly empleyed at these machines will be enraged in more remunerative work. The improvements which are reported fully confirm the anticipations which we expressed in oar columns of the 23d June. PROTEST OF HUNGARY AGAINST RUSSIAN INTERVENTION. Count Ladislas Teleki, the Hungarian Envoy in Paris, has published the following protest, which he has received from his Government : " The Hungarian nation, struck to the heart, has triumphed with the aid of the Almighty over a revolt which a perjured dynasty has excited against the laws and the Constitution by intrigues and by force. The country has driven back as far as the frontier the Austrian armies, who, in order to cppress the liberty and the in dependence of the nation had invaded its territory. In virtue of its imprescriptible right as a nation, in virtue of the duty of legitimate defence, the Hungarian nation unanimously pronounced the fall of the house of Haps burg-Lorraine, as perjured and criminal. Never did a nation tight in a more just cause. Never was a dynasty more justly punished; never had a nation more right to hope, that its Governent, the unani mous expression of the will of the people, may be able to efface, by supporting itself on order and peace, the traces of a long d, spotism. And nevertheless re see rushing on our frontiers in Gallicits and at Cracow the armies of the Czar, ready to invade Hungary at the first call of the house of Hapsburg, without any declaration of war. All these preparations prove that the house of Hapsburg does not hesitate to call in the aid of the Russians to re-establish its de spotic power on the ruins of Hungary. The Hungarian nation is resolved to repel this fresh aggression. It is decided to shed the very last drop of its blood, rather than recognise for its master a King who is the murderer of his people. In coming to this firm resolution it re ligiously believes in the justice of its cause, because it is a holy one; but it does not the less protest, in the face of God and of all civilized nations, against the iniquitous intervention of Russia, which in the interest of a perjured despot, tramples under foot the right of natious and the imprescriptible rights of man. It pro tests in the consciousness of the duty of its self-defence to which it has been reduced. It protests in the name of that eternal right of nations, which has ever been the sacred foundation of the mutual relations between states. I protests in the name of treaties, of declaration, and of guarantees which place under the aegis of the sentiments of justice common to all people the existence of him who is threatened with death. It protests in the name of the balance of power in Europe, in the name of liberty and civilizstion. It protests in the name of humanity and of the innocent blood which cries for vengeance to the God of Justice. The Hungarian nation c.eints on the sym pathy of every nation which loves right and liberty re sponding to this cry. But were it abintioned t,y all, strong in its conscience, it does not the less declare be fore God and betore men, that it will never yield 'o the violence of tyrants, and that it will straggle to its last breath in the defence of its rights against tile attacks of despotism.

Roland was awake and cairn, hut so feeble that he made no effort to rise; and it wan his calm, indeed, that alarmed me the most—it was like the calm of nature thoroughly ext.austed.

" The name, the name—well, that is much; but the living soul!—I wish Austin were here." " I have sent for him, sir." Roland pressed my hand, and wis again silent. Then he pecan to mutter, as I thought, incoherently, about " the Peninsula and obeying orders; and how some officer woke Lord Wellesley at night, and said that something or other (I weld not catch what—vie phrase was tech nical and military) was iranossible ; and how L Ord Wellesl-y asked' Where's the order-book?' and lookhog into the order-book,• said, • Not at all 'imp ,ssible, for it is in the order-book;', and so Lord Welle , ley turned round and went to 81 , , p again."

THE CHOLERA AT PORTSMOUTH.—Within the past few days this pestilence has broken out at Portsmouth, and bids fair, from the census of fatality in so short a space of time as three or four days, to become a long and devastating tenant of the filthy purlieus of that borough. About twenty cases have shown thernsolves in Ports mouth and Gosport within the past week. ,_Four f a t a l cases in one house occurred on Saturday. No descrip tion can convey an idea of the tolerance by the authori ties of the abominations which bread disease and encou rage death in the public streets and confined thorough fares of Prospect row, Montagu-street, Buckland, t h e Buildings, and such like localities. We are informed that the two first cases showed themselves in a filthy place close to a locality, if not the identical spot where the sweating fever raged in the reign of Elizabeth, the plague in 1666. and the cholera in 1832, wh en many cases proved fatal; yet in the face of this past and pre- Sent viiitation tbo haunt is allowed to be the most infa mously dirty in the garrison.

PIPS MS DIARY, MONDAY, JUNE 18, 1849.—This Day a great Cricket hatch, Surrey against England, at Lord's, and I thither, all the way to St. John's Wood, to see the Place, having often heard talk of it, and the Playing, which Mr. Longstoppe did tell me WAS a pretty Sight. Paid 6d. to be let in, and 21. for a Card of the Innings, and bought a little Book of the Laws of the Game, cost me la, 61. more, though when I had got it, could hardly under stand a Word of it ; but to think how much Money I spend out of Curiosity, and how inquisitive I am, so as to be vexed to the Heart if I cannot thoroughly , make out every Thing I see ! The Cricketing I be lieve very fine but could not judge of it; for I think I did never before see any Cricket since I was a little Varlet Boy at School. But what a Difference between the Manner a Bowling in those Days, and that. Players now use; for then they did moderately trundle the ball under-hand ; bu, now they fling it ov,r-handed from the Elbow, as though viciously, and it flies like a Shot, being at least Five Ounces and a Half in Weight, and hard as a Block. I saw it strike one of the Bat-men on the knuckles, who aced and shook his Fist, a; methought well he might. But to see how handy some did catch it though kn.ick“:l off the Bat by a strong man with all his Force; albeit now and then they missing it, a u 1 struck by it on the Head, or in the Mouth, and how any one can I,:arn to play Cricket without losing his front Teeth is a Wunder. The Spectators sitting on Benchts in a Circle, at a Distance, and out of the Way of the Bad, which was wise ; but some on a raised Stand, and others aside at Tables, under a Row of Trees, near a Tavern within the Grourds, with Pipes and B,er ; and Many in the Circle also Smoking ant Drinking, and the Drawers continually going the round of them to strve them la;quor and To'ascco. Bat all as quiet as a Quakers' Meeting, except when a good Hit made, or a Playa r bowled out. and strange to see how grave and solemn they looked, as if the Sight of Men in ,ihite Clothes, knocking a B all about, a ere Something serious to think on. Did hear that many had Wagers on the Game, but doubt it, for methinks the e had b:en more i.iveliness if much Betting, and Chance of winning or losing Money. The Company verb numerou4, and among. tnern some in Carriages, and was glad to see so many People diverted, although at what I could not tell. But they enjoyed them-elves in their way, whatever that was. and I in mine, thinking how droll they looked, so earnestly attending to a mere Show of Dexterity. 1, fOr my part, soon out of Patience with the Length of the Innings, and the Stopping and Interruption sifter each Rua, and so away, more tired, I am sure, than any of the Cricketers. Yet Ido take Pride, as an Englishman, in our Country Sport of Cricket, albeit Ido not care to watch it playing; and cer tainly it is a manly :lame, throwing open the Chest, and strengthening the LimbS, and the Player so often in Danger of being by the B+ll.-Puneh. A MYSTERY . . EXPLAINED.—Forty years ago boy disappeared from the farm-house of Northrig, parish of Shotts, Lanarkshire, then occupied by a man named Alston, and his whereabout has remained a mystery ever since. Suspicion at the time fell upon Alston, the boy's master, which led to an investigation by the proper authorities, but nothing to criminate him was elicited. Time rolled on, and the affair was almost forgotten, but received aew light last week by the discovery of a human skeleton on the neighbouring farm of Stanhill. Some workmen while cutting a drain in a moss on the above farm came upon some bones, at the depth of three feet, wrapped in a checkered blanket. Dr. Grossart, of Whitburn, visited the spot, and is of opinion that the skeleton 'is that of a person not come to maturity. The blanket that enveloped•the bones is just as fresh as the day it was laid in the moss. The bones are dark coloured, inclining to brown, and from their lightness and elasticity, must have lest their earthy salts. Large pieces of adip. wire were found adhering to several of the large bones. Although there is no direct evidence, this is probably the remains of the lost buy.—Correspondent of Glasgow Citizen. AN ANCIENT GOOSE.—On Sunday last, Mr. W. Turnill, of Beceborough, experienced a loss of a singeler nature—no less than the death of a favourite goose, which had been on the premises at Braceborough for sixty years, and prior to that had been in the possession of Mr. John Smith, of Deeping, St. Janes, for forty years. The bird was consequently 100 years old at Lis demise.—Stawfwd Mercury. FIRE IN LAMBETH.— Yesterday (Sund iy) forenoon, between t. n an eleven o'clock, a fire broke out in a long range of premises belonging to Messrs. Baker and Sons, the builders, of Palace New-road, Lambeth. The flames originated in that portion of the w irks termed the " fitting shop." This building was about 70 feet long by 30 or 40 wile, compthed principally of timber, but filled up with machinery anal st .am-engines. The West of England Brigade were quickly at the scene, followed by numerous other engines ot the London establishment, when the firemen found the building in which the flames c.iinmeliced enveloped in one sheet of fire, and strong fears tv , re entertained for the safety of the premises on either side, espowally those belonginv, to Messrs. Haman! and Nixon, the builders. The supply of water being most abundant, was judicioudy scattered over the burn i miss, but ;he firemen were uuacle to get the II ones extineuished until the fitting and blecksaiith's shops were sparest consumed, atel the store-rooms over were burned our. Toe cestly machinery and steam engines are :Aso injured by the action of the tire, but it is under et iod that the latt-r cm be repaired at a (rifling • xp use. Tee total loss is very considerable, end unfortunwely Messrs. Baker were urenetred. From the exereiew.iiin made since the fire ivas ex ineuished, there is no doubt enterraile d but that the flame ; were caused by the :pen tsne.ius ignition of soul- , old ropes stored away in the basement floor of the building.
