THIS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. Very limited supplies of fresh English wheat were re ceived fresh up to this morning's market. The trade, however, for both red and white qualities, was in a most inactive state, at quite the late decline of 2s per qr. The show of foreign cheat was large. All descriptions Were t urchased cautiously, and in several instances is per qr less money was accepted. The demand for floating cargoes was much restricted, at barely late rates. Barley met a dull inquiry, on rather easier terms. The malt trade, however, was tolerably firm, but the inquiry was far from active. For oats there was a fair demand, and prices were steadily Maintained. Beans moved off heavily, at the late reduction in their 'Value of is to 2s. per qr. Peas were in slow request, at previous rates. All k!nds of flour were a dull sale, and in some instances American barrels were only saleable at further reduced rates, ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat.

CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets dur ing the last few days have shown rather more ani mation. A fair amount of business has been done in sugars, full prices being realised for the superior kinds, while low descriptions have slightly given 'Way Coffee has continued in moderate request, and tea, at public sale, brought former prices. Rice, spices, and fruit have been in rather limited request without material alteration in values ; and in saltpetre and tallow the transactions have been confined to home requirements, The public sales of Colonial wool terminated yesterday afternoon. There has been a good attendance of both home and f oreign dealers, and the latter have bought freely at full prices, which were maintained for all de scriptions. A fair a moun t o f b us i ness was transacte d i n t h e Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and the sales amounted. to 12,000 bales, 2,000 of which were on speculation and for export ; prices continuing firm. A further sum of £24,000 in gold was purchased by the Bank of England authorities yesterday. There is a fair demand for discount accommoda tion both in the general discount market and at the Bank of England. Six per cent. is the current rate for first-class bills, and the banks and discount houses are proceeding with increased reserve. The following communication relates to the New Granadian Debt " The committee of Spanish American bondholders hav ing transmitted to his Excellency Senor Martin, at Paris, a copy of their letter to Senor Espirella, which has already bee n published, have received a reply from his Excel lency stating his full concurrence in the view taken by the committee ;of the entire validity of the existing agreement Senor Martin enters into details, showing that this agreement is in strict conformity with the laws of the State, and the proceedings of the Executive Government. This letter is being translated, and will be printed for the Information of the bondholders. " Senor Martin adds that if the printers perform their engagement, he expects to be able to commence the issue of the bonds under the agreement, and to NY the half-year's interest by the first of July." There has been rather less animation in the Market for Public Securities, bat continued de pression has been experienced. Symptoms of re covery were exhibited yesterday afternoon, but they were not of long duration, and prices this turning relapsed into their previous heavy condi tion, Consols being 891 for money, and 901 ti for the account. The New Threes and the Reduced are heavy at 891 ; and Exchequer Bills remain at 6s. to 2s. dis. Bank Stock has recovered to 233; India ditto to 228 ; ditto 5 per Cent. Loan is steady at 971 98 ; but the Debentures receded to 95t. There has been very little alteration in the Foreign Stock Market, and the dealings are of a moderate character. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 71 9 ; ditto, 1858, 551, 4 ; ditto 4 per Cent. Guaranteed, 1 00; Mexican, 216 22 ; Portuguese, 471 ; Spanish, 60 1; ditto Deferred, 43; and ditto Certificates, st. The dealings in the Railway Share Market have been extremely limited, and little change of im portance can be recorded in prices, the variations barely exceeding per cent. Bristol and Exeter (Midland), North Eastern (Berwick), and North Eastern (York), have receded 55., and Brighton, 10s. ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln improved ss. The Foreign and Colonial lines remains at former quotations. South Austrian and Lom bardo-Venetian realise 15k ; Great Luxembourg, 7-1 ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 191; Great Western of Canada, 10 s ; East Indian, 1001, 101; and Great Indian Peninsula, 981.

COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before Sir C. Creswell and a Common Jury.) POLLACK V. POLLA.CK—DEAZsTE AND MACNAMARA. In this case the husband, who is a sugar-refiner, and keeps one ofthe largest establishments in Prussia at Konigs berg, petitioned the Court for dissolution of marriage with his wife on the ground of her adultery with the co-re spondents. e . _ _ Macnamara denied the adultery and the marriage, and he also pleaded condonation and collusion; and Deane de nied the adultery, and pleaded connivance and collusive prosecution of the suit. The respondent did not appear, and Macnamara was not represented by counsel. Dr. Swabey was counsel for the petitioner, and Mr. Merryweather and Mr. O'Dowd appeared for the co-re spondent Deane. Dr. Swabey stated the case. This was a suit instituted by Mr. Solomon Pollack under rather peculiar circum stances. The marriage took place at the parish church, Marylebone, in 1852, and they cohabited chiefly at Konigs berg, but occasionally in England, at the commencement of 1859. In that year the petitioner became acquainted with certain circumstances, which satisfied him that his wife had committed adultery with both of the co-respon dents, and he immediately took steps to obtain a divorce. The offences were stated to have taken place at the house where Mr. and Mrs. Pollack boarded in 1858, at the Great Western Hotel, Paddington, and at Kew. It further stated that there were two children, the issue of the mar riage. Richard Laurance, a medical man, s rid that he was ac quainted with Mr. and Mrs. Pollack, and he knew the latter, whose maiden name was Worsley, previous to the marriage. He was aware that they lived at Holloway as well as Char lotte-street, Fitzroy-square, between 1858' and 1859. In cross-examination he said that the petitioner had a son eighteen years old by a former wife, from whom he had been divorced, as he understood, at his own instance. The evidence of a female named Emilie Ruditski, which had been taken by commission at Konigsberg, was then read. She said that she was in Mr. Pollack's service as nursery-maid, and was with them in Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square. Mr. William Macnamara, the co-respon dent, occupied a bedroom with his brother on the same floor as Mr. Pollack's apartments. Had never seen any improper familiarity between them. She saw Mrs. Pollack go into his bedroom sometimes with Mr. Pollock, and sometimes by herself. The latter circumstance did not excite any suspi cion in her mind. Mrs. Pollack admitted to her that she had sexual intercourse with Mr. Macnamara, who promised to marry her if she obtained a divorce. She had reason to believe that they slept together one night, and Mrs. Pol lack admitted the fact. Some other evidence was called, which was not very ma terial, and this closed the petitioner's case, which was abandoned, as far as Deane, the second co-respondent, was concerned. The jury found that the respondent had committed adultery, but there was no evidence to criminate the co- Despondent. Mr. Merryweather then applied for costs on the part of Mr. Dean. The learned judge said that he would consider the whole subject before deciding this point. The jury found a verdict to the effect that adultery had not been proved, and the Court dismissed the petition. DESPATCH OF GOLD 70 AMERICA. The despatch of £5,000,000 in gold to New York during the early part of the year was followed with only a short intermission, by a further sum of £1,400,000, forwarded within the past three weeks. Of this latter total, £320,000 had already arrived out at the date of the last advices, yet the rate of exchange showed no improvement, the quotation being still 1051. All the leading bankers in that city as well as the principal firms here are per plexed at this result. The apparently anomalous remittances in January and February were in some measure accounted for—after a variety of futile explanations had been attempted—by the rush of our people to purchase American securities at what they believed to be greatly depreciated prices, but since that time their operations are believed on the average to have tended rather the other way. With the cotton season closed and little produce to come forward except grain, flour, and salted provisions the fact that under th ese cir cumstances we are still remitting bullion at the rate of more than a million and a half a month may well excite surprise. The value even of the enormous quantities of breadstuffs we are receiving from New York cannot be estimated at more than about £1,300,000 per month, and, as the American impor tation of our goods, although greatly reduced, has still continued during the present year at a monthly rate of at least £1,000,000, the existence of a very adverse balance seems now inexplicable. But, of course, there must be a satisfactory reason for it, and a little reflection will show where it lies. For years past we have acted as bankers for America in nearly all her transactions with the East, and partially also in those with the Continent, Australia, and elsewhere. When a merchant in America sent orders to China or India he would direct the bills for the amount to be drawn upon his correspondents in London, and to provide for this liability he would remit bills or specie to our market. Hence there was a steady flow hither of Californian gold, and the rate of exchange at New York was nearly always in favour of England. But it now appears that since January there has been a remarkable suspension of American orders to the East, as well as to the Continent of Europe, and consequently that the claims on London falling due from those quarters on American account must for some time be unusually small. The Americans not having to provide for such claims have been enabled to instruct us to remit to them in specie those amounts we should otherwise have had to retain in preparation for payments to other parties on their account, Thus, while their rates of exchange have been rendered most unfavourable to us, those between China and England and the Continent and England have been advantageously influenced. With this solution we can understand how it is that since the beginning of January we i.ave parted with £6,000,000 of gold to America, instead of receiving from her a certain amount, as under normal circumstances we should have done, and that the Bank bullion, nevertheless, stands at this moment almost exactly as high as at that period. We shall at the same time be relieved of such disquiet'as may have prevailed from the many statements circulated as to the nature of the Ame rican drain and the predictions as to its conse • quences. Sound observers could see from the first that, practically, there could be no long-continued injurious draught upon our resources from that quarter, but the form in which the matter would right itself was not so readily apparent. Conse quently, when the power of America to take our gold seemed, week after week, to increase against all former experience, every logical calculation was contradicted. There was a certainty, however, p tht la a ine i d n . T t had e e v i g a n d ole th p e he a n n n o m m e a n ly a h w a o v u e ld evbiedenetxly been but the result of one of those changes in the channels of commerce which invariably take place from great political disturbances. America has taken an excess of our gold simply because she has not required us to pay it away for her, as usual, to other hands. That which we should otherwise have had to send to China, Germany, Russia, France, or elsewhere, we have sent to New York. Our pay ments for American cotton, grain, &c., have been direct instead of indirect. Practically, therefore, there has been no abnormal drain. If a man who has been accustomed, as agent, to pay £lOO to a neighbour is told to cease that payment and to send the amount to his principal, his own position is the same in either case, and this is exactly that which has happened with us. Of course, we have suffered from the fact that our grain requirements have ex ceeded, month by month, all previous anticipations, while the demand for our goods in America has, on the other hand, been impaired, but these points are wholly subordinate, and do not affect the all-im portant conclusion that the intrinsic disturbance to our commerce and money market from the crisis in America has been and must be confined within nar row limits, and that all the assumptions with which the public have been frightened with regard to her suddenly developed faculties for the absorption of bullion have been founded only on idle delusions,— Times City Article. 2111 S DAY'S SHIPPING. , LONDON, Juno 7.—Wind this day at noon North- Easterly ; moderate breeze, and cold, Cloudy, rainy weather. _ Ma P je o s ß ty T , S B MO sh tT i T p H ß , OFF BURST CASTLE, June G. — Arrived—M ag d a l ena , steamer, from Brazils. ul j ld u o n g e , f 6 ro .— m \Viad Plymouth N.E..— Arrived—Her PLYMOUTH, June 6.—Wind N.E. — Arrived—Her Ma jesty's ship Gasper, from Spithead.

AMATEUR THEATRICALS AT CAMPDEN HOUSE. On the evening of the sth inst. a brilliant audi ence crowded to the charming little theatre of Mr. W. F. Wolley's princely mansion (Campden House), to see a performance, by distinguished amateurs, in behalf of the Royal Benevolent Society. The corps dramatigue consisted of the amiable and gifted Lady Anne Sherson ; Mrs. .Milner Gibson, so emi nent for talent, goodness, and true charity; the Hon. Mrs. Wrottesley, one of our best ac tresses, though an amateur ; and of the beauti ful and all • accomplished Miss Barker, sup ported by that first -rate actor, Mr. Wal ley, the noble-hearted, kindly master of Camp den House ; Mr. Maitland, Mr. Selwyn, Lord Raynham, Lord Kinsale, Captains Porter, Perry, and Bowlis.

From .) Count Cavou r i s gone the . The Times mind almost refuses to believe what but a week ago it would have been a doubting of Providence to think at all pro bable. It is as when, on a sudden darkness, the eye is still possessed with the object that last filled it. But just now all minds were on Cavour. In what form would he cast the still un settled, still hot and seething Italy ? How would he win Venice and Rome from the lingering foreigner? How would he overcome the more serious difficulties arising from diversity of race, mutual jealousy, and conflicting traditions ? These questions, and many others, were asked when it was thought they would soon be answered, for busi ness did not slacken in the hands of Cavour. In a small city on a rural,stream, surrounded by moun tain peaks, he parleyed with every Sovereign of Europe, and compromised himself with none, in behalf of the greatest cause that ever fell to the lot of statesman. Italy has conquered the world ; Italy, in its turn, has succumbed under the very weight of its invaders; but never before did the resources of one mind, dealing with friends and with foes, raise a bulwark stronger than the Alps against them all. There was not a European Court which did not find itself brought face to face with Cavour. With every one he had a standing con troversy for Italy. The harvest was over ; the harvest-home was being celebrated ; it was but the gleaning that remained. All at once the master spirit has left us. The affairs remain—the man is no more. It is the very soul of Italy that has fled. We may range through all history and find few parallels. A conqueror dies with an empire to be consolidated or divided ; a young Prince dies with a Reformation unfinished; the only child of an unpopular Sovereign or the heir of a new dynasty is cut off by a sudden stroke; a nation waging a great war loses at once its chief ad viser or its foremost warrior ; a political principle loses its champion —his labours just begun or just ended. In all those cases there is unexpected con solation. The work is finished or in good hands, or, after all, there is nothing to be done ; and the world is only relieved from a personal usurpation in order that it may return to its former and better self. In the present instance a work which, on the evidence of history, is at once most difficult and most noble, has been achieved by the genius and enter prise of one man. Cavour held in his firm grasp those famous Italian Republics that were never united except to conquer Europe or under the pres sure of a world. Will that new unity survive the hand that made it ? Will Italy remain in fact, when it no longer lives in the conception of that powerful intellect and that resolute will ? The most singular combination of qualities, and the determination to abandon self, and almost honour, in the pursuit, were necessary to win success. If such a combina tion be necessary to retain it, that combination will not be found. There are statesmen, and diplo matists, and scholars, and heroes, but there will not soon be another who can be all, and more. But what if the knot itself required this extrica tion ? There never was a great cause that did not require its martyrs, and was not founded on their sacrifice and cemented by their suffering. Twelve years ago the cause now so triumphant was repre sented by a defeated army, a banished and dying Sovereign, a disgraced Minister. United Italy had become again a dream and a fable. It no longer existed even in pamphlets and speeches. But the other day Charles Albert lay in his tomb, enveloped by faded chaplets, mouldy sonnets, and miltewed orations. The living voice was silent, the living arm WC9 paralysed, and the living heart was broken. Among the many dreams of Europe and the many hopes of its old nations, there was none so impossible as that Italy should rise from the dead, and be that independent nation which it was not even under Imperial Rome. The policy which raised Sardinia from her very ashes, which made her the ally of Western Europe, which proved her soldiers in the East, which made Austria the aggressor, which obtained at least one more pro vince for Italy, which made every Italian sure of a leader, and so made Sovereigns fly before popular demonstrations, and armies dissolve before a band of adventurers. This was all Cavour's. His was the head that planned it, the heart that gave it life, and the arm that carried it through. Had this been ail, it might still have been classed with the work of the men who sally forth in quest of States in the New World, and make a little might do duty for much right. Cavour could go on with his work. He could reform Administrations, assimilate States, bring order out of chaos, found legislative assemblies, make them do their duty, and all the time prepare the ground for future operations still more difficult. Such is the man who has been cut off in the midst of his labours. While we write, it is but a few hours since he was spending his last breath for the encouragement and union of Italy. He has fallen in the struggle of thought and word as bravely as the soldier dies on the battle-field. All speak well of his successors, except that they are not Cavour. They are even too honest, and too rigidly exact, to use the politic al t which Cavour used against those who deserved no better treat ment. There are none with the versatility required to deal with the novelties and surprises of a revolu tionary period. But the present crisis of Italy's fortune may still come under the general law which seems to make the greatest men martyrs to their own cause, and founds every covenant with sacrifice. Italian unity—the creation, as some think, of 'violence, of duplicity, of treason, and of all the questionable acts ever practised by the weak against the strong, by the oppressed against the oppressor—has now the consecration of a great death, fitly crowning a life of anxiety and labour. They who die in a cause bury their own errors, and purge the example which they set. The discordant elements of Italy might not be harmonised by eny living statesman, and may yet acknowledge the authority of one who speaks from the grave. It is no humiliation to bow to those whose power is in our own bosoms, and who can only enforce their opinions by making friends of our own instincts. Cavour will be as great a name in the tomb as in the Council Chamber of Turin. Possibly, too—though this is more precarious—his death may go far to disarm the jealousy of those who think Sardinia too much a gainer by Italian revolution. The living do not envy the dead, at least on earthly grounds. France and Austria may pay court and deference to an illustrious shade who is no longer in a condition to provoke their jealousy. Even the great Liberator may now feel more respect for the man who has at least died for his loyalty. The Court of Rome need not congratu late itself on the silence of him who, being dead, yet speaketh. There is no need, then, to conclude the game of Cavour over, and not to be played out. There will be other Cavour: raised up by his example, and not so easily to be cut off as a mans natural posterity. This year, indeed, all is q uiet, and all will be quiet; but before another year we shall see whether the example of the great Italian statesman is buried and forgotten in the grave. (From the Daily Keys.) Cavour is dead. Who that read these tidings yesterday will profess that even to-day Le has got from them more than a vague sense of some porten tous derangement of the facts on which the politics of Europe have turned ? The event has too many bearings and suggests too many consequences to be grasped at once. In every free country Cavour was almost as the name of one of its own statesmen ; while in all countries he was regarded as the man on whose decisions the most momentous European questions hinged. Like most great events, it has come upon the public by surprise. Probably most people have at one time or another been disposed to ask themselves what would happen if Cavour disappeared; but the thought has been instantly repressed : the re sults to be apprehended were too painful. Now that the fact has to be looked in the face, we can see many reasons why we might have expected it. The fatal excesses of labour in which the Count indulged to the total exclusion of recreation and repose; his customary annual attacks of illness; and the well-known atrocious abuse of the lancet in Italian medical treatment, are enough to make it unreasonable in us to be startled at what has happened : but we are startled, nevertheless. The hold which Count Cavour had taken of the public mind was in proportion to the rapidity and vigour with which he developed a policy directed as much to the satisfaction of great European necessities as to the independence and greatness of his own country. We must go back to some great formative period of history—far beyond the ara. pre tended" peace" of 1815, when Europe was b b f u ture rously and traitorously hacked about, to to the . in _ s ti e 1 men of generations remedial work to do—back tottnhee ' of Richelieu and Oxenstein, to find and the conceptions, the skilful c ombinations , i works proclaim masterly execution of Cavour. 1 bold m sight of their a fflicted with the his character.

The alliance with France for the over throw of Austrian supremacy in Italy was a com pact all the wore daring because me had better considered than Count Cavour the risks which a small state runs when it accepts the military aid of a powerful neighbour. The result at first seemed rather to warrant the early apprehensions than approve the final resolution of the Minister. At the crisis of Villafranca, Louis Napoleon constituted himself the sole adviser of Victor Emmanuel, and expressly excluded Cavour from the counsels of his master. Had the policy of the Minister been less than national and Italian he had now been irretriev ably undone. But the Lombards, the Tuscans, the Romagnese knew the man who had stood by them, and took up the cause in which he had taught them to confide, and sustained it until he was again at the helm of his country's affairs. The extension of the free Italian Kingdom which followed his return to office was not accomplished without sacrifices which sorely tried all Italian hearts, and which, as Cavour was well convinced, could never be repeated even by him. The time is not come for publishing the history of these transactions ; but whenever it arrives it wi IL be seen that not Garibaldi himself could have striven harder to prevent the separation of Nice from Italy. The remarkabl e events w hi c h h ave s i nce ex hibited his policy, the annexation of Umbria and the Marches,. with that of the Tw o Si c ili es , are fresh in every memory, and his settled pur pose to complete the work b y acqu i r i ng R ome and Venice are just as well known. While he was alive nobody ever doubted that he would obtain both. Before the first article of his faith and the chief aim of his career—the unity a n d nat i onality of Italy—a hundred consideration s wou l d perplex and stagger pedantic lookers on, and i n truth we must add some others, which have at times made the most candid friends of Italy dou bt and p ause , were set aside. Onward he went without precipitation and without delay, as free from rancour as from remorse, sometimes compelled to suspend, but n ever induced to ren o u nce the pursuit of his magnificent ends. And now he is gone ; and his mighty energy, his calm and fa r - see i ng p ru dence, his vast political knowledge can no more be useful to his country. It is natural to ask—Who will take up and finish his work ? The feeling congenial to the hour is, that the loss sustained in his death is irreparable:, We may admit this undeniable truth without ex- N aggerating it. What Italy needs in her political situation is power ; and Cavour was power. His character as a versatile and resolute statesman, full of resource, and with a knack of rising stronger from every defeat, was appreciated in every court of Europe, and entered largely into the calculations of the enemies of his country. Again, the condi tion of Italian affairs demanded a decision and unity of administration, to which the concentration of power in a single hand was very favourable The prestige of Cavour's name, like the ascend ancy which he enjoyed in the Cabinet un challenged, was of gradual growth, and its loss cannot be supplied. But we cannot, on reflection, participate in the fears which so naturally arise that the conduct-of Italian affairs must necessarily become embarrassed in consequence of his removal. Italy, which has given great ministers to every principal country in Europe, will not now be want ing to herself. It is true the hour is one of great graVity. Danger menaces, foes and friends may be tempted alike to presume on fancied weakness. But if the public men of Italy display a spirit of self-abnegation and unity equal to their ability— if the Ricasolis, Ratazzis, Farrinis, Mamianis, Minghetti, Pepolis, and others only —as assur edly they will—lay aside any personal considera tion for the sake of their country, we shall look for a successful prosecution of that policy which its illustrious author lived long enough to develops, and which with his dying breath he bequeathed to his country. THE DIVORCE COURT. • A singular question, involving consequences of the utmost practical importance, has just been decided in the Divorce Court. We have heard a great deal of retest years about the prohibited degrees. The repeal of the law which pro hibits a man from marrying his deceased wife's sister has been urged by interested parties with a pertinacity which at one time promised to be suc cessful ; and it is remarkable that the agitation of that question did not sooner cause the point to be raised which has just been decided by the full Court of Divorce. In order to explain what that point is we must go back to the reign of Henry VIII., when the statutes defining the prohibited degrees of consanguinity and affinity were passed. The first of these was passed in the twenty-fifth year of that King's reign, its principal object being to annul his marriage with Queen Katharine, his brother's widow, and to legalise his marriage with Anne Boleyn. By this statute the prohibited degrees were first defined and declared, and among these marriage with a wife's sister or with a brother's wife was expressly forbidden. The next statute was passed three years later, namely, in the twenty-eighth year of the same King's reign, chapter seventh ; and it was to the interpretation ot this Act that the attention of the Divorce Court was recently called. By this Act the King's marriage with Anne Boleyn was an nulled, the Princess Elizabeth declared illegiti mate, and the crown settled upon the issue of Jane Seymour. It further contained a repetition of the prohibited degrees in precisely the same terms as those in the previous Act, but with the following peculiar and most important addition :—" And fur ther to declare the meaning of these prohibitions it is to be understood that, if it chance any man to know carnally any woman, that then all and singu lar persons being in any degree of consanguinity or affinity to the parties so carnally offending shall be deemed to be within the cases and limits of the said prohibitions of marriage." We have heard it insinuated that this peculiar provision was inserted for the purpose of more effectually annulling the King's marriage with Anne Boleyn, on the ground of his criminal intimacy with a very near relative of that unfortunate per sonage previous to their marriage. Best to leave to those who are learned in the scandals of that age to determine whether the alleged liaison between King Henry and Mary Bullen, the sister of Anne, before the ma rr i age of the latter, really existed, or whether it was a malignant calumny invented by the Papists. It was of course no part of the duty of the Court of Divercete Ainet quire into the circumstances under which the of Parliament in question was passed. The only point it had to determine was, whether or not the peculiar prohibition which it contained, and which we have already quoted, was still in force. It became necessary to determine this from the fact that a divorce was sought for on the ground that the petitioner, previous to his marriage, had cohabited with his wife's mother. We understand that applications of a similar kind were forthwith to be made in the event of the success of this novel suit. It is very remarkable, as the Judge Ordinary observed, that the question had never been raised before ; and this circumstance no doubt had its proper weight with the Court in inducing it finally to reject the prayer of the petitioner. But the time which elapsed between the argument and the judgment, and the cautious terms in which the judgment itself was pronounced, seem to show that the matter was involved in no little doubt and difficulty. The Judge Ordinary, in concluding, truly remarked that the absence of any previous application of a similar kind was strong evidence as to the general opinion as to what was the state ot the law upon the subject. " But," he added, " even supposing the question to be doubtful, they_ o should not think themselves justified in putting three f the first time upon a statute passed above exp ose centuries ago such a construction as weuld would be alle gations the truth or falsehood of which uncertain the difficult to prove, and so rendering marriages to the peril of impeachment it would eE the issue of status of many persons, oupP 8 . been lawfully married, and renderingbastardised upon an such marriages liable to b e a the marriage, might objection which, at the time e h them to have be wholly unknown te as P ion in question, was o the case we shall not Into the legal merits that the act of Henry, which enter.

Justi ce and morality alike forbid that such fertile sovvo , s of dissension should have been opened after the lapse of upwards of three lytmared years. Meanwhile we trust that some of our law reformers wilt take the matter up. Let a short declaratory Act be passed, setting the matter at rest for ever. Questions of such immense im portance to the peace of society ought no longer to be left in a state of uncertainty. Now that they have been raised they ought to be definitively settled. Lord Lyndhurst's Act, passed in the year 1835. disposed of all questions touching the affinity of married persons down to that time. Let another Act of a similar kind be passed now which shall effectually prevent in future all such applications as that which has just been. rejected by the Court of Diyoree.--Merning rest- 81 i of i
