LAW INTELLIGENCE—(nts Day). SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Joyce.) IMPORTANT TO CITY MERCHANTS.-TOMLIN AND ANOTHER V. ABRAMAMS. This was an action to recover £4 odd loss upon the resale of some fruit, &c. A clerk in the service of the plaintiff attended, and was asked by the Judge what he knew of the affair Clerk—On the 9th January our broker sold to defen dant-- Mr. Buchanan (for defendant)—How do you know that ? Clerk—l have here the broker's sold note. His Honour—That will not do. We must have the broker here. Have you ever applied to the defendant for this money ? Clerk—Not personally. His Honour—Then you know nothing about it. Clerk—l know that our broker gave notice to defendant hat the goods would be resold. Mr. Buchanan—That is simply a statement, and It is of no use your making statements about facts of which you can know nothing. His Honour—The production of the broker's contract is not sufficient, and you must call the broker. Clerk—Will your honour grant an adjournment His Honour—Yes, but you must pay the costs of defen dant's attorney. Adjourned. IMPORTANT ACTION UPON A DISHONOURED CHEQUE. PLATT V. NICHOLAS. This was an acticn upon a dishonoured cheque for £6 15s, sgned by the defendant. Mr. Masterman, for the plaintiff, put in the cheque marked "no effects," and Bata that the case had been ad journed for a witness. Mr. Buchanan, for the defendant, handed up a paper signed by plaintiff, which stated that the cheque was to be provided for by a Mr. Malam (the witness spoken of). Mr. Malam was called, and the plaintiff was asked about his knowledge of the contents of the paper put in by Mr, Malam. His Honour could not accept explanations of such a clearly written document as that put in by defendant. Plaintiff signed it with his eyes open, and would be non suited with costs. Nonsuited accordingly. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—( This' Day.) MARLBOBOUGH•STREET. E XTRA ORDINARY CASE—MADLLE. TITIEN'S COACH MAN CHARGED WITH DRUNKENNESS—THE EFFECT OF AN IMPRDIMENT OF SPEECH.—Henry Forty, a respectable looking man, a jobmaster, of Queen's-terrace, St. John's wood, was charged before Mr. Yardley with being drunk and doing damage with his brougham to a cab, the property of Mr. Coltman, of Vincent-square, Westminster. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Marlborough-street, appeared for the defendant. After some discussion, Mr. 'Yardley said he could not entertain the charge of damage, btit that was for another court. The charge of drunkenness was then gone into, and cer tainly was a very curious one, Mr. Lewis stating that it was a matter of great importance to the defendant, who was a very respectable man, having several horses and broughams, and who was engaged to drive Madlle. Titiens to a concert at the Hanover-square Rooms on the previous day, being engaged by that lady by the month to do so, and that lady jobbing his brougham. Hellich, 171 C, said the defendant was drunk, and an other witness and Sergeant Glass, C 3, who took the charge, confirmed him. For the defence, Mr. Krols, Mdlle. Titien's nephew, Dr. Turle, of Boundary-road, St. John's-wood, and Mr. Nation, solicitor, of Orchard-street, were called. Tho first named said the defendant was sober when he left his aunt's house a short time before ; Mr. Nation said that the defendant had done some business at his house in the after noon, and was then quite sober ; and Dr. Turlo said that the defendant had suffered an accident two years ago, hav ing his skull fractured, and that the defendant was subject to determination of blood to the head, and which gave him the appearance of being intoxicated, and, in addition, the defendant had an impediment of speech that would make any one think that ho was not sober. Ho believed the de fendant to be a very sober man. Mr. Krols further added that he went with his aunt (Madlle. Titiens) at eight o'clock to bail defendant out, and he had no appearance then of being intoxicated. Mr. Lewis having made some further remarks on the case, which lasted nearly two hours, Mr. Yardley said there had evidently been a mistake on the part of the witnesses, they mistaking the impediment in the defendant's speech to be the effects of drink. The defendant was then discharged.

FRANCE AND BELGIUM.—The Brussels Indepen dance of the Ist says :—We learn from a sure source that the Treaty of Commerce with France will be signed to-day at Paris. It is thought it will be before long submitted to the sanction of the Legislature. A letter from Vienna states that some experi ments which have been recently made in that city with gun cotton have answered remarkably well in the case of the infantry rifles. It is said to facilitate loading so much that the men are enabled to fire 55 times in 91 minutes.

THE RIGHT SORT OF " HOLY FATHER.''--The Siecle commends to the notice of the Ultramontanists the following, which has been circulating, in the form of a hand ; bill, through the workshops of Paris .—" If the Holy Father followed the example of Christ, and showed us by his conduct that he was the chief disciple of his Master, meek and lowly of heart ; if instead of talking about his patrimony and his Peter's pence, he spoke to us of the heavenly country and the treasures of faith and morality; if, like his Master in the temple, he drove the traders out of it that the whole edifice might be filled only with works of purity, charity, and piety ; if, lastly, he gave ns the Hob, Gospels for eur solo commandment, then it would be, who should be first to welcome him ; then it would be repeated a thousand times, Behold tlio Pontiff we want " 1 g lite tlo Aviy Father OCTO: PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION.

The Earl of DERBY presented petitions in favour of an equalisation of the poor rates. ROMAN CATHOLIC PAUPERS. The NOBLE EARL also presented a petition, praying that Roman Catholic paupers might be allowed the free exercise of their religion. The Marquis of NORMAN BY presented similar petitions. The Duke o f ARGYLL sa id h e h ad received a copy of the petition presented by the noble earl, and had made inquiry into the complaints of the petitioner. He found that by the rules the ministers of any persuasion professed by anyan in mate of a wor kh ouse were a ll owe d f ree access hou of the d ay. The only case he knew of at in which the rule had been infringed was at a poor-house where the inmates not belonging to theEstabl;shed Church were allowed to go out to attend their own place of worship. With respect to the rules for the religious education of the pauper children, he thought they were good, provided that they were fully and fairly carried out. The noble lord read a number of reports from workhouses where com plaints had been made with reference to the subject co in _ plained of, and said he was of opinion that no substantial grievance existed, and that there was no necessity for any alteration in the law with reference to the subject. The Earl of WICKLOW said the complaints were not against the law or the commissioners, but against the guar. Cans of the poor who prevented the education of the ohil, dren. Earl GRANVTLLE said a committee of the House of Commons was sitting, and that was one of the points under thoir oonoidoration. The subject then dropped. PRIVATE BUSINESS. __ _ The Shrewsbury and Welchpool Railway Bill was read a third time and passed. MARRIAGE LAW AMENDMENT BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. The Earl of ENNISKILLEN asked why it was that clergymen of the Established Church were not to celebrate marriages in Ireland after 12 o'clock, and Roman Catholics were permitted to perform the ceremony up to two o'clock. (Laughter.) The LORD CHANCELLOR said he had consented to this clause in order that wedding breakfasts might be post poned a little later than usual. (Laughter.) The bill passed through committee. LEASES, &c., BY INCUMBENTS RESTRICTION BILL. This bill passed through committee, and was ordered to be reported on Monday. QUEEN'S PRISON BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. TIIE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT. The Marquis of NORMANBY asked her Majesty's Government whether they had any objection to give a copy or extract of any despatch from Sir J. Hudson forwarding the report made to the Parliament now sitting at Turin as to the numbers of electors qualified to vote at the late election, and of those who gave their suffrages to the present sitting members, and of those who voted for other candidates. Tho noble marquis said, as the Sardinian Chambers had given the information to the public, the Government would not refuse to give copies of the papers he asked for. • Lord WODEHOUSA said no such despatch had been received. He was, however, assured that the Parliament of Turin was a fair exponent of the feeling of the Italian people. The house then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.--YESTERDAY. Mr. MnssEY, in the absence:of the Speaker through in disposition, took the chair at four.o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed:— Barnsley Coal Railway, Birmingham Canal Naviga tions, , 'Kingston-upon-Hull Docks, Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (New Line, &c.) Liverpool Im provement, Middleton and Tonge Improvement, Mon mouthshire Railway and Canal (Lease, &c.), Mon mouthshire Railway and Canal (New Lines, &c.), Newcastle-under-Lyme -Marsh Lands, Oawestry, Elles mere, and Whitchurch Railway, Parsmultown and Por tunina Bridge Railway, South Yorkshire (Keadby Exten sion), Sowerby Bridge Gas, and Thorne Moor Drainage, &e. The Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway (Additional Works) Bill was considered, and ordered fur third reading. WESTMINSTER TATPROVEMENTS BILL. On the motion for the consideration Mr. A. SMITH said that the objects contempkted by the original bill, namely, improvelnents of West minster, were never brought under the consideration of the Commission, as the subject had been re ferred to Lthe bondholders. That bill contemplated the making of Victoria-street, and the opening of the Abbey to public view. If, however, the plans of the bill were carried out, and the buildings as proposed erected opposite Westminster Hotel, the effect would be to shut out from view the Abbey front. He moved that the bill be re ferred back to a select committee. Mr. BAILLIE opposed the amendment, and did not think the house was called upon to enter into the question as to whether the commission had performed their duty. The company had for a long time been in an insolvent state, and they oould not carry out their proposed improvements. The great object of this bill was to give them power to wind up their affairs. After some further discussion the amendment was with drawn, and the bill was considered and ordered for third reading. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the repeal of the paper duty; in favour of the removal of the duty on tea and sugar ; in favour of the free exercise of the Roman Ca tholic worship in workhouses; against the Poor-law Removal Act; in favour of the budget, Btc. A few petitions were presented in favour of the repeal of the paper duty, but the early part of the evening was occupied in the presentation of petitions from different parts of the country, and from all classes, against the repeal of that duty, as being un called for and dangerous, and praying that if any remis sion of taxation could be effected, that on tea and sugar should be substituted. SHANNON IMPROVEMENT WORKS (IRELAND). Col. FRENCH moved for copies of all memorials and letters addressed to the Irish Government, the Lords Com missioners of her Majesty's Treasury, and the Commis sioners of Public 'Works in Ireland, by proprietors of land adjacent to the River Shannon, in the counties of Galway, Kings, Roscommon, and Westmeath, complaining of inun dations caused by imperfect or injudicious works ; and, of all correspondence between those departments in reference to such representations, and of all answers to the several complainants respeotively during the ten years ended the 31st day of March, 1861.—Ordered. EAST INDIA (COURTS MARTIAL). Mr. FREELAND moved an address for copy of the General Order issued by the Commander-in-Chief in India, in reference to courts martial appointed for the trial of officers charged with insulting Mahometana while engaged in religious worship in Egypt.—Ordered. THE FOREIGN OFFICE. Mr. COWPER, in reply to Mr. Tite, said that Mr. Gil bert had prepared a new elevation of the plans and deaigs' for the Foreign and Indian offices, which would be enb" mitted to the inspection of the house before the works we" proceeded with. GREENWICH HOSPITAL AND scliooLs, In reply to Mr. LIDDELL, beeu some antra- Lord C. PAGET said that there had „owl and the corn tions both with respect to Greenwich fort of the pensioners.

Lord PALM— . ho olajesty had granted a pension of cording for his * 4°l ' c i os e, the Westmoreland poet. That ao a ye to 4°l with a recommendation in advice " I f g l ad by Lord Carlisle, Lord Lansdale, and a largo a „ e titio "gTergymen and gentlemen. Mr. Close was &•7;:": w Thb er of a n those who had rais e d h imself by his genius andliterarr o f abilities f rom a humble station of lifer a nd no doubt he would consider the mark of distinction from her Majesty with the greatest pride. He was not aware that Mr. Close enjoyed the distinction of being Poet Laureate t o th e sable warrior alluded to, but he feared that he would not rece i ve from him a butt of sack. (Laughter . ) HOUSE AGENTS. Mr. HODGKINSON asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, whether he would so modify the ninth resolution intended to be proposed in committee of Ways and Means (the resolution relating to house agents) as to exempt from its operation all persons letting and receiving the rents of unfurnished houses only; and, if not, whether he would consent to exempt from its operation those persons who were agents only for houses none of which shall be let for a higher rent than £25 per annum ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he proposed to exempt those persons who were% the agents of houses which were not valued at higher than £25 a year. FACTORIES AND BLEACH WORKS. Major EDWARDS asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he had any intention to increase the number of sub-inspectors of factories in the event of the Bleach Works Bill coming into force previous to the page" ing of the proposed Government Lace Works Bill! , Su Q, C, LEWIS said that he )2,44 110 yet reeeird 944 El
