2.102‘ 7 1:1 7 MARKET 41W CITY NE IV 8, CITY, Two O'CLOCK. Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the law few days has continued very quiet. Tea has remained at about former prices. For the finer descriptions of sugars late rates have been maintained, but inferior qualities have been rather cheaper. Coffee, rice, spices, and saltpetre, have been in limited request, at barely former quotations. In tallow the transactions have also been restricted to operations for consumption, and a downward tendency has prevailed in prices. About £12,000 was sent into the Bank of Eng land yesterday. It was announced yesterday afternoon that Messrs. T. and R. Raikes and Co., bankers, of Hull, had suspended payment, with liabilities estimated to amount to between £BO,OOO and £lOO,OOO. The failure also took place of Messrs. Mackay and Read, East India agents, whose engagements are supposed to be about £30,000. In the Liverpool Cotton market, yesterday, there was a fair demand, at previous rates. The sales amounted to about 10,000 bales. There is rather more activity in the general dis count market, but the demand is not so excessive as usual just before the payment of the 4th of the month, and the abundant supply of money enables the mercantile community to obtain the assistance they require without the slightest difficulty. The suspension has been announced of the old established bankiig firm of Messrs. T. and R. Raikes and Co., of Hull, with liabilities supposed to amount to about £lOO,OOO. The prospects of the liquidation have not transpired. Annexed is the circular issued : " Hull, 3d June, 1861. "We are under the very painful necessity of apprising you that difficulties in which we find ourselves placed oblige us, in the interest of our creditors generally, to decide upon suspending our payments. " We had until so late as Saturday entertained hopes of obtaining such assistance as would have enabled us to avert this crisis ; but our efforts in that direction not proving successful, we have without delay adopted the only alterna tive left to us. " Our affairs are under investigation by Messrs. Quillen :Ball, Jay, and Co., of Moorgato-street, London, who will prepare a statement to be laid before our creditors on the earliest possible day, at a meeting of which due notice will be given, and, requesting your kind forbearance in the meantime.—We are, &c., " T. AND R. RAIKES AND CO." The suspension has also been announced of Messrs. Mackay and Read, East India agents, with liabilities estimated at about £30,000. The follow ing letter has been addressed to the creditors by the solicitor to the firm : " Messrs. Mackay and Read, of Frederick's-place, Old Jewry, East India commission agents, have consulted me as to the position of their affairs, and I regret to have to in form you that I am compelled to advise them at once to suspend payments. I consider that this step will best pro mote the interests of the creditors. "The books are placed in the hands of Messrs. Coleman, Turquand, Youngs, and Co., who will forthwith prepare a statement, and as early as possible convene a meeting, of which you shall have due notice.-1 remain your obedient servant, " J, WILSON NICHOLSON. " 48, Lime-street, London, June 3." The half-yearly meeting of the Bank of British North America has been held to-day, when it was stated that the directors have made, as they conceive, ample provision for all bad and doubtful debts ; they have also deemed it advisable at this time to write off the whole of the preliminary expenses con nected with the opening of the branch at Victoria, in Vancouver's Island ; the above deductions being made, the available nett profit for the year amounts to £61,897 9s. ld., out of which they have declared a half-yearly dividend, payable on and after July sth next, at the rate of 6 per cent, per annum, free of income-tax. This will leave the sum of £1,897 9s. ld. to be carried to the rest of the balance of un divided profit, which, including this addition, amounted on Dec. 31, 1860, to £125,766 35., after providing for the dividend that was paid on the sth of Jan. last. In the Foreign Market the principal feature has been a decline of fully a per cent. in Mexican Stock, the report just issued by the committee not being considered favourable, and dealings have taken place at 211 22 ; Russian 43- per Cents. are steady at 91, Turkish 6 per Cents. are 71 1-, and ditto, 1858, 551 561. Renewed depression has been apparent in the market for Public Securities, owing to a continu ance of speculative sales and the projected loan for India. Consols are 90i-, z ex din.; for money, Olf; for the 6th inst., and 921 for July. The Ne,,v7 Threes and the Reduced have receded to 89t- ; but Exchequer Bills are firm at 6s. to 3s. die. ; Bank Stock has declined to 232 ; and India ditto to 228. Increased heaviness prevailed to-day in the Rail way Share Market, prices having been unfavour ably influenced by the depression in Consols. Eastern Counties and North-Westerns receded 55.; Caledonians, Lancashire and Yorkshire, Midlands, and South-Easterns, 108.; and Great Northerns, 15s. The Foreign undertakings have also barely main tained previous values. South Austrian and Lom bardo Ventian realise lid, and Great Luxemburg }lave declined to 7. For the Colonial lines there was only a moderate inquiry. Great Western of Canada have receded Os.; Bombay and Baroda, 10s.; East Indian have improved ss. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have continued inactive, at about former prices. Efts Stock 32 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities B9l a 3 per Cent. Consols Annuities New 3 per Cent.

The traffic from the increising district of Pimlico and Chelsea to the east end of London now passes princi pally round by the Strand, Fleet-street, and Cheapside, adding considerably to the crowding of those thoroughfares. The Lambeth Bridge will be situated half-way between Vauxhall and Westminster-bridges, and from one-half to three-quarters of a mile in distance will be saved when using this bridge and the fine open streets on the Lambeth side as compared with the circuitous and crowded route via the Strand. The bill for the new bridge has passed the House of Lords, and has been read a second time in the Commons. The engineer is Mr. Peter W. Barlow, and the _w_o r rk, which is on th e system t h a t h as b een a d o pted from .

RESTORATION OF CIIICIIESTER CATITEDRAL The com m i t t ee f or th e res t ora ti o n of Chi c h ester Cathedral are making fresh appeals to the public for funds, to e na bl e them to carry out the work they have undertaken. Mr. G. Scott's estimate of the probable expenses was £50,000, and towards this sum £30,000 has been contributed by the county of Sussex, in the diocese of Chichester. The balance Yet to be obtained is £20,000, and, to makeup this amount, donations will be received during a period of five years. The restorations will embrace the rebuilding of the tower !nd spire, the rebuilding of the four adjoining bays, varlo necessary repairs, and tte ?STARE MARKET.- (THIS DAY).

LAW IN2'BELIGENCE—(7h:s Day). HOUSE OF LORDS. (Peers Present—The Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, Lord Cranworth, Lord Wensleydale, Lord Chelmsford, Lord Kingsdoec-n, and other Peers.) APPEAL-EYRE V. M ( DOWALS (OFFICIAL MANAGER OF THE TIPPERARY JOINT STOCK BANK) AND ANOTHER EX PARTE AS TO JOHN SHERWOOD WHEATLEY ET E CONTRAS. The further hearing of this appeal was resumed this morning. This was a competition for priority of preference between a judgment creditor and a mortgagee under the Irish Registry Acts. The judgment was regularly entered up and registered prier to the registration of the affidavit of the mortgage creditor. The Chancery Court in Ireland preferred the judgment creditor's claim to the mortgage creditor on the debtor's estate, and against this decision the appellant appealed. Sir Hugh Cairns, Q.C., was heard in reply for the appel lant, and contended that under the Irish Registry Acts the authorities and decisions referred to the appellant's claim was preferable to the respondent's 'claim, and therefore the decision appealed from ought to be reversed. At the conclusion of the arguments the Lord Chancellor reserved judgment. charged with feloniously cutting and wounding Elizabeth Poole, the wife of a shoemaker, who is about seven months advanced in pregnancy. She was led into court for the first time, this afternoon, in a very weakly condition. Mr. John Brown Ross, surgeon, of No. 56, High-street, Shadwell, said he was called upon to attend the prosecu trix on the night of Wednesday the 22d ult., at the King David-lane station-house, and found her bleeding pro fusely from seven wounds on her head, neck, shoulders, and hands. Some of them were very dangerous wounds, calculated to do grievous bodily harm. The woman had been under his care ever since, and was at present very ill. He had with difficulty saved, her from a miscarriage. The prosecutrix was then sworn, and said that on the night of the 22nd ult. she was walkinE along Star-street, in company with a friend, when the prisoner rushed upon her and stabbed her on the shoulder, and followed this up by repeated stabs. She fainted and lost her senses. When she recovered she was covered with blood, and Dr. Ross was dressing her wounds. Mr. Woolrych—Had you quarrelled with the prisoner that day ? Witnes—No, sir, not that day. I saw her in the morn ing. On the Monday and Tuesday I had quarrelled with her. The prisoner who was greatly excited here shouted "Oh you wicked woman, she ilbused me that day (Wednesday) five times. Witness--We had blows the day before. Prisoner (loudly—Yes, and two days before she used me most cruelly. She gave me six cuts on my face and head, and tried to part me and my husband. The prosecutrix—The prisoner said on the same day she stabbed me she would not go to bed until she did for me. It is no use denying it she did fight the day before. The prisoner—Oh, you wretch ; you wicked woman. Several witnesses, who saw the prisoner stab the prose cutrii and heard her threats, gave evidence. Mr. Woolrych committed the prisoner to Nowgate for ,rial. ROY AL HUllf eI.NE SOCIE2Y. The 87th anniversary meeting of this institution was held yesterday at the Freemasons'-hall,--his Grace the Duke of Somerset, First Lord of the Ad miralty, in the chair. Among others present were —Lord Henniker, Sir William Fraser, Sir Walter Stirling, Messrs. Montagu Gore, E. T. Baker, W. Hawes, the Rev. Prebendary Jackson, Drs. Baker, Hutchinson, &c. The chairman said that having had the honour of being selected to preside at this meeting, he felt the greatest pleasure in doing so, well knowing as he did the value of the institution. He then called upon the secretary, Mr. Lambton Young, to read the report. It stated that during the past year 156 cases, attended with risk to the lives of 187 persons had been brought under the notice of the society, and of the persons immersed 172 were successfully treated, the remaining 15 having been past recovery; there were also 27 cases of attempted suicide. During the same time the society had conferred as rewards for gal lantry to those who risked their own lives to save the lives of others 24 honorary silver medals, 65 bronze ditto, 14 vellum and 16 parchment testimonials, besides 72 pecuniary rewards of various amounts. 68,792 persons had bathed in the Serpentine during the last 12 months at the hours appointed for morn ing and evening bathing, when the society's boats were in attendance, and 27 casualties had occurred, of which two were fatal, from not having been discovered until beyond recovery, and five pers o n s were saved from committing suicide through the watchfulness and prompt attention of the society's boatmen. Last winter the estimated number of sliders and skaters on the ice in the parks and Kensington-gardens was 563,570, of whom 146 were rescued, by the appliances of the society, from a watery grave —viz., 15 in the Regent's park, 51 in Kensington-gardens and Hyde park, and 80 in St. James's-park. Since the establishment of the society upwards of 30,000 lives, mostly in or near the metropolis, had been saved and restored to their country. The report concluded by stating that the society was founded to preserve from premature death persons apparently dead, not only from drowning, but from hanging, lightning, cold, heat, noxious vapours, apoplexy, or intoxication. The chairman then presented the medallions of the society to the following, accom panied in each instance by a few suitable remarks : —To Dr. Christian, the principal medical officer of the society, the gold medal, for his zealous and un wearied exertions during the last 15 years; the silver medal to Dr. W. H. Mackintosh, of the 10th Brigade Royal Artillery, for saving gunner James Murphy, who sank while bathing in about twelve or fourteen feet of water at the bottom of the cliffs under Fort George, Guernsey, on the 9th of July, 1859; to Mr. Pilbrow, third officer of the steamer Hindostan, for saving Major Ormsby, who accidentally fell from the gangway of the steamer Bengal while at anchor in the river Hooghly, near Calcutta, and was being rapidly carried away by the strong current of the river, on Sept. 22, 1859; to Mr. Aus in Cooper, second officer of the ship Agincourt, for saving Mr. S. Gardner, midshipman, who fell overboard, in Port Phillip, Australia, on March 26, 1860, the night at the time being very dark and tempestuous ; to a Brazilian sailor named Anastasio Romualdo, for sav ing a British seaman named Brown, who, being in toxicated, while in the act of stepping from a boat on board a steamer, fell into the water at Para, Brazils, on May 31, 1860; to Donald Urquhart, for saving five women out of a part of 12 persons, whose boat capsized in the Dornoch Frith, Suther landshire, on 19th August last; to Ensign Chute and Private Quigley, of the Bth Regiment, for saving an officer's servant who fell overboard the Clara troopship at Spithead on the 4th of Septem ber last ; to Dr. Marcus Dill, of Ballymena for saving a lunatic named Hammill who attempted suicide by jumping off the rocks into the sea at Portstewart on the 14th of September, 1860 ; to Captain Harding° for saving a boy who fell over board from the ship Persian at sea on the 20th of July, 1860 ; and to Mr. Harton, medical student, for saving a woman, who attempted suicide by jumping off a bridge, a height of 30 feet, into the river Shannon, at Banagher, on the 29th of August last. The meeting was addressed by Lord Henni ker, Sir W. Fraser, Mr. Montagu Gore, Mr. Baker, Mr. Pownall, the Rev. T. Jackson, and Mr. W. Hawes, and certain formal resolutions having been proposed and duly carried, a vote of thanks was passed to the chairman, and the proceedings ter minated. ROYAL LONDON YACHT CLUB.—The first match of the season amongst yachts of this club, for various prizes was sailed on Saturday ; but, owing to a foul, and conse quent protest, the contest for the first class was undecided, the matter being left in abeyance until the proper authori.. ties shall hai7e heard evidence and fully determined upon it. " A letter from Rome," says the Gazette de France, " announces as probable the marriage of two Nea politan princesses, sisters of King Francis 11. It is said that Donna Isabella is to marry the Grand Duke of Tus cany, now a widower, having lost his first wife, a Saxon princess ; and that negotiations are in progress for the mar riage of Donna Annunziata with Count de Flandres, second son of the King of the Belgians." UNIVERSITY ELECTIONS BlLL.—This bill has been materially altered by the select committee. An elector is to be allowed to vote by a voting paper only by nominating other electors, one of whom must deliver his voting paper for him at the poll and declare that he is personally ac quainted with the vote and believes the voting paper to be genuine. Dr. Abraham, of New Broad-street, has been elected a Governor of Dulwich College, for the parish of St. Botolph, Bishopsgate, without opposition, in the place of Robert Parnall, Esq. CAPTURE OF A SUPPOSED SWINDLER.—Ernest Brown, charged with embezzling £lO,OOO irom a firm in Throgmorton-street, London, has been captured at D'Urbaa by detective Spittal, wbo has brought him back in the City, NOVEL IMPORTATION OF STOCK.—The Mermaid, which arrived from Canterbury last week, had on board 38 sheep from Mr. George Rich's celebrated merino flock, con sisting of 28 rams and 10 ewes. Some of them are intended for the breeding establishment of the Emperor Napoleon at Ramb millet, according to the arrangement concluded with Baron Daurier by Mr. Rich on his visit there in 1859. The remainder are for the improvement of Mr. Rich's own esta blishment in England. The sheep will, no doubt, obtain for Mr. Rich the recompense he merits in the full appreciation of the admirable qualities of his New Zealand-bred flock by those who are well able to form an opinion, —.Austr alian and New Zealand Gazette. SHOCKING SUICIDE OF A RAILWAY CASHIER AT HULL.—A shocking occurrence took place yesterday morn ing at Hull. Two men, James Akroyd, clerk at the goods station of the North-Eastern Railway Company at Hull, and Charles Brook, under-cashier in the same employ, had been out together on Saturday evening, and returned to the house of Brook, 30, Regent-street, about half-past 12 o'clock. Both went into the back yard previous to going into the house, and Akroyd was about entering the house by the back door, when he was alarmed by the report of a pistol. He instantly ran back to Brook, whom he had left standing in the yard, and found him on the ground bleeding pro fusely from the head. A pistol, which lay beside him, pre.. sented conclusive evidence that he had deliberately shot himself. Akr,,yd carried his companion into the kitchen, and Dr. Bell and his assistant were very speedily in atten dance ; but notwithstanding their exertions, Brook died about two o'clock. Besides the pistol with which he shot himself, another loaded one was found in his coat pocket, which favours the supposition that the suicide was premedi• tated. As to the motive for the commission of the rash act, it will only be made apparent after the inquest. Deceased was very respectably connected, and occupied a responsible position. It is, however, affirmed that he was addicted to betting on horse races, and some time ago possessed one himself. lie was absent from business on Saturday,— Jianchottr .Exatitfricr , SP oR,TING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALLT-MOxpAr. The Epsom ng day commenced this afternoon and made a large progress. Money changed hands with a rapi dity whi, h augured well for the final adjustment of balances, which will take place to-morrow (this day), and altogether iho business of paying and receiving is likely to be easily arranged. It would, of course, be premature to cuter into any detailed account of the winners and losers until the " winding-up act" is accomplished ; but it may be safely stated that the results of the Derby and Oaks has inflicted no heavy blow on the Ring, and exercised no sore discou ragement over backers of horses.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER-MONDAY. We had another quiet day here. The only animals sup ported for the Northumberland Plate were Underhand and Yorkminster. For the Ascot Cup, Thormanby was in de mand at 7 to 4 taken freely. There w4s a strong desire with some parties to get against The Wizard, for 100 to 6 was laid several times, but some offers to take 100 to 5 were not responded to.

The judgments against which this appeal has been brought were pronounced in an action raised in the Court of Session, at the instance of the above named appellant and of the father of the appellant, Alexander Ramsay, jun., against Sir James Ramsay, of Balmaine, patron of the Ramsay Mortification of the United College of St. Salvador and Sc. Leonard, at St. Andrews, and against the Principal and Professors of the said United College, and as such admini stratc,rs of the Ramsay Mortification. The Court of Session Second Division decided against the appellant's claim as a competitor for the Ramsay Bursary at St. Andrew's Col lege. In 1854 the appellant was a competitor for the Ramsay Bursary, along with two other individuals of the name of Alexander Ramsay, of Forfar, and John Ramsay. The examinal ors preferred and certified Alexander Ram say, of Forfar ; but, after holding the bursary for several years, his right was challenged, and his election was set aside as beyond the proper ago in 1859. The appellant now claimed as second best at the examination of 1854. The Court rejected his claim, and he appealed. On hearing the appellant's counsel, and without calling for a reply, the Lord Chancellor affirmed the decision of the Court of Session, and dismissed the appeal, with costs. Messrs. Connell and Hope, Prince's-street, Westminster, and W. and J. Cook, W.S., Edinburgh, were solicitors for the respondent. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before Sir Cresswell Cresswell.) MILLS V. MILLS. This was a suit instituted by Maria Antonia Mills for a judicial separation, on the ground of her husband's adul tery, and there was an appearance by the respondent, but no answer. Dr. Fhillimore, Q.C., and Mr. Alewdell were counsel for the petitioner. It appeared from the statement of council that the parties were married at Vienna on the 3d of November, 18 ?5, and cohabited until 1837, when the respondent deserted her, and formed an improper connection with a female, with whom he had since been living, and by whom he had a family. It was not until 1857 that the petitioner dis covered where her husband was residing, which was at Seine Port, near Melon, in France, and as he evinced no disposition to atone for his misconduct she resolved to adopt the present proceedings. Her application was limited to judicial separation, for although she alleged desertion, being a Roman Catholic, she could not, accord ing to the doctrines of that Church, avail herself of the full relief which the Court was empowered to afford by a disso lution of marriage when that offence or cruelty on the part of the husband was established in addition to adultery. It farther appeared that at the time of the marriage the peti tioner was living with her father, who was a retired profes•• sional man named Kriel, and that there was nothing in her conduct to justify her husband's desertion. The wit nesses in support of the petition were resident in France, and their evidence had been taken by commission before the Tribunal Premiere Instance at Melun. The evidence, which was very voluminous, was then read, and it set forth that at the present time the respondent was living at his chateau at Seine Port with a female, who passed as his wife, and that his son by her was 15 years old. The way in which the petitioner discovered where her husband was living was by receiving a letter in London from him which was intended for the woman with whom he was cohabiting, who also happened to be in London on a visit at the time. Dr. Edward Zumnerm, a jurisconsult, was examined to prove the validity of the marriage certificate produced. Sir C. Cresswell said that he must take time to read the depositions before deciding. The case accordingly stands over. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) BO W-STRE'ET. THE SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A CLERGYMAN.—TIIO Rev. James Roe, a clergyman of the Church of England, was brought up this morning on remand at the Bow-street Police-court, upon a wart ant charging him with having forged certain documents with a view to defraud the exe cutors of the late Edward Roe of the sum of £6,000. The facts of the case appeared at length in The Sun of the 23d ult., when the prisoner was first placed at the bar. Mr. Humphreys appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Wontner defended the prisoner. Mr. Abraham Surrey said—l am an engraver, and occupy a shop in Fleet-lane. The prisoner, in August last, came to my shop relative to some alterations being made in some stamps I had previously made by order of Mr. Perrator. I made the alterations on the stamp and returned it to the . prisoner. I also made 12 moveable letters that formed the words "Macclesfield" and " Bath," and the figures 1,5, 9, and 2. I made no other letters such as " D," " T," or th e figures 1,2, 59. On the Bth of August the prisoner came to my shop about 10 o'clock in the morning, and produced the stamps I had previously made for Mr. Perrator, with all the fittings. He told me he had been referred to me by Mr. Perrator to make some altera tions in the stamps. He afterwards told me I was to con sider myself at work for him, and not Mr. Perrator, and also asked me to spend a couple of hours with him, as he wanted me to make some alterations that were very parti cular. He also said something about Mr. Perrator not taking the order if he could not execute it. He said he wanted alterations in both stamps. In the circular stamp be wanted the space enlarged to about 12 letters. Mr. Collie thought it unnecessary to go into the minutire of the alterations ; the depositions already contained the material fact of prisoner calling on the witness. Mr. Humphreys wished to show how the prisoner gave his directions to the witness. Mr. Surrey then went on to say that the prisoner tried the whole of the letters by taking impressions in a book, and afterwards ho appeared to compare them with some thing he had therein. I endeavoured to alter the stamps accordir g to the wishes of the prisoner. The prisoner showed me some tracings similar to a Post-office stamp. When ho came to me in August he did not wear either beard or moustache as he does at present. A number of witnesses were in attendance, but a remand is to be again applied for by Inspector Whicher, who has the case in hand. MARLBOROUGH- STREET. FRIGHTFUL ASSAULT WITH A KNIFE.—Mary Hodgson, a stout violent tempered woman, was charged before Mr. Mansfield with assaulting her husband, Robert Hodgson, a messenger, residing at No. 2, Noel-street, Soho, in the following desperate manner:— From the evidence of the complainant, whose nose was scarcely visible for adhesive plaster, it appeared that he went home about II the previous night, his wife being in bed and the worse for liquor. She asked him to give her some money, and he said he would the next day. She then got out of bed and seized him by the hair and whiskers, and on his trying to push her away she struck him in the face with a knife, splitting his nose completely in two—so entirely, indeed, that the sides of it lay on his cheek, and cutting his lip. He then gave his wife into custody, and went to the hospital, where his nose was sewed up. He had had one child by his wife before marriage, and she had often assaulted him before. Greenham, C Division, handed in the following certifi cate : " Middlesex Hospital, June 4. " Robert Hodgson came to this hospital, and is suffering from an extensive wound on the nose and lip. ,t W. NORRIS MARSH, House Surgeon." Mr. Mansfield said it was a serious case, and the prisoner must be remanded for a week. The prisoner frequently interrupted the proceedings. CLERKENIVELL. THE ATTEMPTED MURDER AND BURGLARY IN ISLINGTON.—The girl Redkinsoß is still unable to attend to give evidence against the three prisoners at present in custody on the charge. Last week it was stated that she had sustained a relapse, but owing to the care of the authorities at the Royal Free Hospital she is again progressing favourably. This morning, however, she was enabled to take slight exer cise on foot in the grounds attached to the institution ; but any stress of the intellect of the patient is prohibited at the present time. In about a week it is fully expected she will be able to give her evidence, The prisoners in accordance with the remand from last Tuesday, were formally placed in the dock and then con veyed back to the House of Detention.

On the grass lands, also, the effect will be most beneficial. Similar (mouth reach us from 'Mew Ad other 091111tieNt THE BANKRUPTCY BILL. The Bankruptcy Bill has been _printed with the alterations introduced by the Select Committee to whom the measure was referred by the House of ' Lords. The bill, when it left the House of .Com mons, provided for the appointment of a chiefiudge in lieu of the present Cominissioner6 in London. The object o f thi s P rov i s i on was t o i nsure uniformity in the decisions and practice of the Court, to pro vide an economical and satisfactory court of appeal, and to procure for the administration of the bank ruptcy laws the same d ecorum t h at i s observed in other courts ofjustiee. The Select Committee have struck out this part of the bill, and leave the law to be administered by the existing Commissioners. The bill provided that the creditors should decide whether a bankrupt's estate should be realised by agentsfraosen by themselves or the official assignee. The Select Committee refuse to give the creditors such option, and leave the estate to be realised as at present. The bill provided that the creditors should b e p er i o di ca lly i n f orme d of the course of liquidation of a bankrupt' s es t a t e b y rece i v i ng a statement from the official assignee. The S e l ec t Committee refuse to assent to such inform a ti on being conveyed to them. The bill provid e d th a t any debtor might petition the Bankrupt c y C our t f or an adjudication again s t hi mse lf. Th e S e l ect Com mittee will allo w any non-trader to do so, but only those trader d e b tors whose estates will realise £l5O. The bill provided i n the cases of trust deeds for giv ing validity to such deeds where the holders of bills of exchange could not be discovered. The Select Committee refuse to permit private arrangements to be effected unless all the cre di tors can be. found. These are some of' the .changes made i n t hi s im portant measure, and will justify the observati of on the Lord Chancellor, that they might more aptly bo termed alterations than amendments. THE "ESSAI'S AND REVIEWS."-CASR OF DR. ROWLAND WILLIAMS. Wo believe we are correct in stating that n o citation has yet issued from the Court of Arches in pursuance of the Bishop of Salisbury's suit against Dr. Rowland Williams. Hopes have been suggested in some quarters that his lordship may yet be in duced by leading representatives of his own opinions in the Church to reconsider his threatened course. Should he persist in removing the questions of scholarship at issue from the court of literature into one of law, he will be met at the outset by the technical difficulty of proving such kind of publica tion as constitutes a legal offence. His lordship is reported to have applied to the defendant to aid him in furnishing such proof, but to have received in reply only the name of an eminent firm in Doctors' Com mons. Should the cause come on for hearing upon its merits, it will appear that, while the difference ira point of sentiment between the parties is very great, the difference in doctrinal statement is not so great as has been pretended, and that in respect of parity of appeal to Scripture there is no differ ence at all. Dr. Williams is represented by his friends as stopping short of the more decided lati tuiinarianism of what has been called the Rugby school of divines ; in that he softens and guards with- limitations the harsher or more mysterious propositions which the successors and pupils of the late Dr. Arnold have for the most part thrown entirely aside. In the interpretation of prophecy he contents himself with asserting strongly a literal historical sense, approximating to the views of Jewish interpreters, without elenying a second sense of spiritual reference to Christianity. It may b difficult to show to the satisfaction of a court of law that this assertion of a double sense, by way of typical analogy, differs essentially from doctrines current in the schools. It would appear to have transpired that the doctor intends to abide by the prophetical theory put forward by him as expressing entirely his personal view, but that, in reference to his general analysis of the late Baron do Bunsen's opinions, he will claim the privilege of a reviewer to put forward as worthy of consideration the doc trines of a distinguished author without a lt oget h er accepting the responsibility. Th ere i s pro b ably sufficient intimation in the essay of discrepance be tween the author and his reviewer for the latter to be able to claim in a court of law that his expres sions in the essay may be interpreted by compari son with the sentiments which he has put forward in his own person in his well-known work on " Christianity and Hinduism," as well as in various sermons and pamphlets. THE ENGINE DRIVERS' TEN HOURS BILL. On Sunday, at a meeting of the Central Com mittee of the engine drivers and firemen, held at their clubhouFe, in Manchester, a copy of the bill which it is proposed to present to Parliament was submitted for consideration. The preamble of the bill sets forth that legislation with a view to the limitation of hours is necessary, as well for the protection of the public from accidents as for the advantage of the men. The clauses propose to bind railway companies, under a penalty, not to employ enginemen more than ten hours per day, and it is made illegal, also under a penalty, for the men on their part to work for a longer period. The time of the men is to be reckoned from arrival at to departure of their engines, and provision is also made for unforeseen casualties where the ten hours' will of necessity become ex ceeded, in which case extra payment is required. to be made. The clauses were fully discussed seriatim, and the directions were given for the immediate introduction of the bill into the House of Commons. In the course of the discussion, it was stated that efforts had been made to create disunion in the ranks of the men ; but those efforts had proved futile, except in a few rare and unworthy cases. Copies of the bill had been ordered to be sent to the various districts in the kingdom. Meet ings had been held in Leeds and other places, and the clauses of the bill had received very general approval. Some instances were mentioned in which threats had been held out against those who had taken a prominent part in the movement, and a determination was expressed to support these men against any tyrannical proceedings. The men were urged to combine more strongly than ev er in this advanced stage of the agitation for the amelioration of their position. A cordial vote of thanks was a p n a s d s ed th teo utmostt the Pre s d n e a n n t i m o t y t h o p C r e e v n a t i r i a e Cl Com E m e t i w t t e e e e n , eighty and ninety men were present.

A Bill for consolidating and amending the proce dure of the County Courts is now before Parliament, brought in by Mr. M‘Mahon and Mr. Sergeant Pigott.
