(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Torin Kindersley.) MOTION.-JOHN BEVIAL CROSS V. THE GOVERNOR AND COMPANY OF TILE BANK OF ENGLAND. This was a motion to discharge a distringas obtained by a creditor against the plaintiff on the ground of irregularity. It appeared that the plaintiff was beneficially interested in stock amounting to £13,569 14s. Three per Cent. Re duced Bank Annuities standing in the name of Hannah Cross, and others, St. George's-park, spinster, in the books of the Governor and Company of the Bank of England. The plaintiff has since become bankrupt, and the estate has passed to his assignees. The object of the distringas was to prevent a transfer of the sum of £4,000, which was a different denomination of stock of Three per Cents., standing in the name of Charles H. Morgan and others. The affidavits were made on a diffe rent state of stock from the original stock, and the distringas obtained was quite indefinite, and did not apply to any par ticular kind of stock. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor discharged the dis - tringas, and ordered the bankrupt's assignee to be called as a party to the suite. COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) BAILEY V. BAILEY AND DELLA ROCCA. This case stood cver from yesterday. Sergeant Shee, the counsel for the petitioner, applied for a postponement of the proceedings in order to obtain additional proof to prove the adultery. The Judge Ordinary informed the learned counsel that he had considered his application, but he could not accede to it. Dr, Phillimore then proceeded to address the court for respondent, and contended there was no evidence to justify the court being called upon to pronounce a decree for the dissolution of marriage. The evidence as to the adultery alleged to having been committed by respondent with co respondent was also insufficient. The respondent, Madame Bailey, it had been stated, had been in the habit of receiving visitors in her bed -room. but that was by no means incon sistent with the habits of a virtuous Italian lady, as even in this country not many years ago, as many must be aware, who had seen the works of Hogarth and other painters, that practice was much in fashion. Sergeant Shee having replied on the whole case, The learned judge said he would carefully consider and read ever the whole of the evidence in this case before he pronounced his decision. There was an entire absence of information respecting the course of life between the peti tioner and respondent or anything that could give the Court any idea of the cause of separation. COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEAL. 'Before the Lord Chief Baron, Justices Wightman and Williams, and Barons Bramwell and Channell.) TEE QUEEN V. GIBBON. The prisoner was indicted for having falsely sworn that he had carnal intercourse with Ann Bishop, in September, 1861. He was tried and convicted. Bishop denied the truth of the prisoner's statement when she went to affiliate upon another person a child which she gave birth to in 1861. It was contended that the swearing of the prisoner had relation to an unnatural issue, and, consequently, the indictment was bad. The case was argued some time ago, and stood over for judgment. The Court being divided in opinion the case was ordered to be re-argued before the 15 judges. THE QUEEN V. ALLINGTON ELIOT AND MARY ANN WHITE. The prisoner in this case was found guilty of indecent exposure, but a technical objection was taken at the trial, nd that objection was now brought under the consideration of the court. Their lordships ordered this case also to be argued before the 15 judges. QUE EN V. YEADON AND BIRCH. In this case the prisoners were found guilty of having maliciously assaulted one Hiram Roberts. Exception was taken to the conviction on the ground that the jury brought in a verdict, in the first instance, for a common assault, but the judge sent them back, and they then brought in a ver dict for a malicious assault. The court directed a new trial to take place. P OLIC_E INTELLIGENCE.—( Vas Day). MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY AT AUCTION ROOMS.—Gustave Muller, a smartly-attired young fellow, was charged with stealing a pistol and a bottle of scent at the auction rooms of Mr. George Bonham, 12, Leicester.street, Leicester-square. The prisoner was seen at the auction rooms the previous afternoon by ono of the porters, George Pond, and after examining a pistol ticketed for sale in the evening he left, and the pistol was at once missed. Information was given to the police, and the prisoner was subsequently found in Drury-lane, without the pistol, but having in his possession a bottle of sc,en,N, which was identified by Mr. Bonham as one of a number he had for sale, the property of a French man. William Whelan, 118 F, said he found on the prisoner 9s. 11d., and he had no doubt he had pledged the pistol for 10s., and that the penny had been deducted by the pawn broker. He found the bottle of scent on the prisoner. A remand was granted, there being no doubt the prisoner has been before in custody. ASSAULT ON A LIVERY STABLE KEEPER—A FAMILY FEUD.—Thos Jay was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with assaulting his brother, Mr. Wm. Jay, livery stable keeper, 9, Adams-mews, Grosvenor-square. It appears that the defendant was requested to leave the premises of his brothers, George and William, but refused, and struck the complainant. In answer to the magistrate, the complainant said the defendant was employed on the premises, and all lived in the same house. The defendant had been requested to leave, but would not, and was drunk at the time. 81 C said he saw the defendant strike the complainant, and he was they. given into custody. Mr. George Jay said he wished the defendant to be bound over to keep the peace. Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered the defendant to find one bail in £lO for six months. THAMES. DARING ROBBERY—EXPOSING GOODS FOR SALE IX THE PUBLIC STREETS.—Mary Ann Smith, aged 19, was brought up on remand before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing 30 yards of linsey, value 205., the property of Nicholas Dawson, linendraper, 17, Crisp-street, Poplar. The linsey was exposed for sale on the top of other goods outside the prosecutor's shop, offering a great temptation to the dishonest and the destitute. The shopkeepers of the district will, however, in spite of urgent and repeated remonstrances from the magistrates of this court and other courts, continue to expose their goods for sale in the street outside their shops, and lead people into temptation. The prisoner took advantage of the goods teing outside the shop of the prosecutor to remove two pieces of linsey and put them under her shawl. A person who saw the robbery committed went into the shop and gave information. A young man named Albert Justian immediately proceeded in quest of the thief, and overtook her a few yards from the shop with the property in her possession. The prisoner said she was guilty. Mr. Selfe—You have given a false address, and you are known to the police, but it is not known whether you have been convicted before. You are, I believe, a thief by pro fession, and I shall pass upon you a severe sentence, which is that you be imprisoned for six months and kept at hard labeur. The practice of exposing goods for sale outside of shops is a very bad one indeed, and ought to be discon tinued. TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN DUBLIN. (From the Dublin Evening „AMU of yesterday.) A. painful tragedy was enacted this day at 26, South Cumberland-street, Dublin. A man, named Mollin, had been a waiter in an hotel at Bray, but left his situation in September last, and since then had been unable to obtain employment, and consequently was brought to poverty and had barely sufficient food to suffice for to-day. After having sold the little property he possessed, it appears a quarrel arose between him and his sister-in-law about his shirt collars, when ho took up the poker and rushed upon her, inflicting a serious wound on her left temple. She fled from him, and his wife interposed, but he turned upon her and most savagely attacked her, cutting her with the poker on the 1,, - ,ad in several places. She, however, suc ceeded in getting away. Rendered mad at being thwarted in his murderous attack on his sister-in-law and wife, he took up a knife, and catching hold of the youngest child, a boy of two years, he inflicted a fearful gash across his throat, severing the head almost from the body. Then seizing the elder he cut his throat, but the wound did not cause instantaneous death. He now appeared to have become conscious of what he had done, and cried out in the most agonising and frantic manner for help. Weeping bitterly he was taken into custody and :did not offer the least resistance. The eldest child died shortly after being taken to the hospital. On being brought up at the police office, the murderer was remanded till the following morning. In the last accounts from California it is stated that the amount of silver now produced in that State is estimated at £1,200,000 per annum. At the theatre of Nice, four nights back, a curious incidext occurred. On the performance of "La Ceneren tola," one of the actresses, Mlle. Mistr ali Vetant, having gone too near the footlights, sot fire to her dress, but Ron coni, who was singing by her side as Don Magnifico, extin guished the flame by pressing the dress between his hands. In so doing, strange to say, he did not interrupt for a mo ment the morceau he was singing, and the actress, on her part, deriving confidence from his remarkable calm, went on with the performance as if nothing had happened. The audience were so pleased with the self-possession displayed Ronconi, that they summoned him three times before the curtain with loud applause. 1801. THE OCTAVIA STEAMSIIIP, One of the most important screw trials which have taken place for some time in her Majesty's navy took place at Portsmouth yesterday, being the offi cial trial of the Octavio, 51, screw. The ship was built some years since at Pembroke, from the de signs of Sir William Symonds, the then Surveyor of the Navy, as a sailing frigate, but has never yet been placed in commission. In 1860 she was placed in dock at Portsmouth for conversion to a screw frigate, and was taken out of dock on completion of her conversion in the early part of this year. Her alterations of form consequent on conversion were cutting in two parts and lengthening amidships, and an alteration to her stern to adapt it for the propeller. The bow was untouched, and it there fore retains its original bluff form, which was one of the most marked characteristics of the ships de signed by Sir William. The importance att Ached to her official trial yesterday was owing to the fact of her being the first completed of three vessels the machinery of which had been made with a view to special results, in accordance with orders from the Admiralty to that effect. The machinery of these vessels—tb e Constance, Arethusa, and Octavia—was contracted for by the firms of Messrs. Penn and Son, Randolph and Elder, and Maudslay, Sons, and Field, who competed to produce each a pair of en gines, without limit to cost of manufacture or of design, that should be, as far as they could produce them, economical in their working, each to be of 500-horse power, nominal. The Octavia's engines have been designed, and their principle patented, by Mr. Sells, chief draughtsman to Messrs. Mauds lay, Sons, and Field, and consist of three cylinders with surface condensers, the latter having upwards of 11 miles length of pipes, and two air-pumps. The cylinders are 66in. in diameter, with a 3ft. 6in. stroke. The three cranks, in lieu of the usual two, impart a more equable motion to the shaft by di viding the circle of its revolutions into three equal parts instead of two, as heretofore. The cylinders are surrounded by " water-jackets," and are thus completely encased in steam, being the first screw engines that have bean so fitted in her Majesty's navy, although the same principle was applied sus cessfully to a paddle-steamer many years ago. The boilers are tubular, and as nearly as possible two thirds the size of others of the same power of engine in other ships. From trials already made it has been satisfactorily proved that the consumption of coal in working the Octavia's engines will not ex ceed one-half that consumed in ordinary instances. The boilers are fitted with Mr. Field's patent super heating apparatus, which yesterday worked exceed ingly well, giving a temperature at the engine of 320 deg. It is cased on one side with a water space into which the feed water is pumped before passing into the boiler for the purpose of raising its tem perature. The steam, after passing through the engines, is thrown by the air-pumps into a tank in the formof distilled water, in which state it re-enters the boilers by a pipe from the tank. The length of the engine-room is 27ft. 6in., and that of the stock hole only 26 feet, one boiler only being on each side. This great economy of boiler space enables the ship to carry a greater quantity of fuel, and yet it must be remembered that the ship yesterday eras doing work with these two boilers equal to what she would have done with double her present boiler power had she been fitted in the ordinary way. The ship's steam and vacuum gauges were the patent of S. Smith, of Nottingham. The performance of the machinery throughout the trial was most satisfactory, and was really surprising even to those accustomed to the working of marine engines, from its extraordinary equability and smoothness of movement. The ship left Portsmouth harbour soon after 10 a.m. in charge of Mr. Jones, Government pilot, and commanded by Capt. H. Broadhead, the noting of the perform ance of machinery, &c., being under the supervision of Mr. G. Murdoch, inspector of machinery afloat, and Mr. Miller, second chief of the Steam Factory Department. Tho morning was bright and fine, but with a breeze of wind of quite the force of 4 from west.

Public opinion in England is too well acquainted with the propensity of French Imperialism to sudden transformations and theatrical surprises, to make a financial collapse which was inevitable for a political conversion which is impossible. The Ethiopian has not yet changed his skin, and the Empire is not yet Peace. Every form of govern ment, like every human institution, has qualities which count for its being, and for whatever chances of duration it possesses; but there is always a leaning on one side or the other, and in the absence of any resisting force, whichever way the fabric leans it will sooner or later fall. The leaning of French Imperialism is certainly not on the side of peace, liberty, or economy. These are the characteristics of a limited and re sponsible government, in which the civil element prevails, and under which men say the thing they will ; not of a government all the forces of which are practically centred in one man's sovereign caprice, and which has six hundred thousand bayonets to keep from rusting. It is amus ing and edifying enough to see an all but omnipotent ruler making his people a partner in his difficulties, and generously giving them full leave to pay his debts. The reclaimed prodigal is not too nicely judged; only in the present case it is the family that has eaten the husks, while the prodigal has been devouring any number of fatted calves. A new loan is only a calf the more added to that consider able consumption of cattle. The commercial and mercantile world, then, is willing to take the recent penitential litanies in Franco for what they are worth, and, as in charity bound, to hope all things and believe all things, and to expect nothing but a loan. Wh&t new spirit M. Fould's Menzoire, and the return to office of a discarded Minister " through a triumphal arch," may infuse into the deliberations of the Senate and the debates of the Corps Legislatif, is an interesting problem. It may be that the friendly openness of M. Fould and the generous humility of his master may have so disarmed the independent criticism of the Chambers that even hostile voices will join the chorus of gratitude for favours to come, and a Budget in which " the Unforeseen" will form the largest chapter will be voted with accla mation, if not with tears of trustful devotion. The members of the Imperial Chambers are men of feeling as well as men of figures, and as cold lookers on we are disposed to tremble for the rigour of their consciences in the face of such an affecting appeal to the tenderness of their hearts. It may be well to beware of exaggerating the in fluence of the financial situation, as disclosed by M. Fould, upon the future course of the Empire. The new Minister of Finance, beyond all question, is a man of peace, of business, and of moderation, and we are loth to apprehend that as soon as he has completed the operation he is called in for his occu pation will be gone. But t - "ghten the patient is not to cure a disease so deepseated as the finan cial disorder of the Empire; and here we have a patient who is probably not half so frightened as he looks. The shameless spendthrift becomes the unblushing insolvent, and the heir to large estates will sell his very soul to any lawyer who will find him in pocket money when he has made havoc of all his " expectations." It is obvious that M. Fould , must make a solitude of the Imperial palaces and purlieux before he can cut or cauterize away the rank disease thathas preyed on the vitals of France for the last ten years. Perhaps he will be content to have facilitated by his Memorial and his mea sures an indispensable transaction, and adminis tered some passing relief to the public mind in a difficult and dangerous season. How, then, will the political situation of the Em pire at home and abroad be effected by this confes sion of sins followed by the customary form of ab solution ? At home it may be imagined that the prestige of the Government will suffer ; the silent and invisible censorship of opinion will be come more and more vigilant and searching ; public speech will wax bolder and bolder; and the empire will cease to be considered ay evil. To eereil. n by the timorous and selfish c lassesa of h. our nerg To argue thus is to know very little s b w o u a r y s s b i n y the d m e r a i s o s g , o t r o o a f l l t the i G e s o v o e n r d n m a l e l n p t a s w s i h o i n e s h , or of the magnificent resources of the land, E Emperor must and the l abour of France.

Imperialism must live and move and have its being in a vast army trained and taught to worship the hereditary saintship of Napoleon, and to regard all Europe as its camp of glory. To suppose a sincere reduction of the French army under the Empire is to suppose that it is not the one great object of the Emperor of the French to keep his throne. Without seeking to disparage, therefore, the good intentions of M. Fould, it may be prudent to hold our congratulations in reserve. But there is yet another consideration which appears to impose re straint upon our hopes, and that is the foreign policy of the Empire. the It is pleasant to anticipate a time whent re foreign policy of the Empire will not be of a " B u ut to excite the attentive anxiety of EuroP t e h st is im u a n te r s es of unrest wnheieighhbswouerllisngt.h thearmaments a Napoleonic tradition ; it is t F uld's raemoria leonism.

Second Run—Time, 6 min. 29 sec. ; speed in knots, 9254; revolutions of engines, 56. Third Run—Time, 5 min. 31 sec. ; speed in knots, 10.256 ; revolutions of engines, 54. Fourth Run—Time, 6 min. 37 sec. ; speed in knots, 9 . 068 ; revolutions of engines, 50. The mean of the six rune (full power) was 12.255 knots, and the mean of the four (half power) was as nearly as possible 10 knots. The temperature of both engine-room and stokehole was of an unusually cool character, as the following figures will prove : At 1130 a.m.—Engines working up to full power. Engine room platform, 51 deg.; stokehole—centre, 68 ; forward, 55 ; aft, 58±. At 1 p.m.—Engine room, 55 deg. ; stokehole—centre, SO ; forward, 65 ; aft, 6S.

The trial may be looked upon as most satisfactory. To ascertain, however, the full value of the improve ments, the Octavia, as soon as ready for a cruise, should be temporarily put into commission and sent to Lisbon and back, the consumption of fuel, speed attained, and other important items being carefully taken account of during the voyage.

With all these appari tions he is nevertheless devoted to his pro fession, and makes a large income at the bar. Unfortunately he generally meets with seri ous disasters in the pursuance of his heroic adventures, and after being disabled many times throughout the book is finally married with a green shade over his eyes. No such accidents, however, can effect the devotion of the heroine, Lady Susan, whose miserable position naturally makes her the more readily appreciate the merits of her incomparable chevalier. She is the daughter of a penniless Earl, a frequenter of the gaming table, and has been brought up by a prim old aunt, in a retired part of Yorkshire. The story plunges in medias res at once, for the very first chapter is entitled " The Rescue," and introduces us to Lady Susan and her aunt returning home from a visit, along a very perilous road, at nightfall, when a combination of extraordi nary accidents befal them. A terrible thunder storm comes on just as they are slowly mounting a dangerous path overhanging a precipice, and two highway rabbers seize this very inconvenient moment to attack them. Of course the ladies are panic-stricken, when Bohun appears upon the scene and extricates them from all their difficulties, though getting severely wounded, and having previously been concerned in a similar affray, he is quite disabled and laid up in Lady Susan's house, the object of her anxious care. Here the kitchenmaid, a relative of one of the robbers, tries to poison him, but the cunning of the lawyer out wits her. Under these exciting circumstances, and being freed from the surveillance of the aunt, who is ill from frrght, it is not surprising that an at tachment springs up between the hero and the lady he has rescued. The correct Lady Susan does not scruple to engage herself without her aunt's knowledge, and indeed meets the gentle. man quite half way. However, owing to some complications of Bohun's affairs they have some years of anxiety and patience to endure, in the course of which each side meets with remarkable adventures. All is at length happily settled and the parties are able to indulge the good appetites which we are so often told they possess, at a sump tuous wedding breakfast. The minuteness with which many little incidents are told verges on the ridiculous, but there is certainly enough incident to supply two or three ordinary novels, and those who would like for a cha,:ge to go back to the scenes, incidents, and style of conduct of forty years ago, may find amusement hr the annals of " Maiden thorpe." TILE ROY AL HUMANE SOCIETY. A meeting of this society took place yesterday at he offices of the institution, Trafalgar-square, Mr. T. E. Baker, the treasurer, in the chair. Mr. Lamb ton Young, secretary, submitted 15 cases for con sideration of the committee, in which persons had risked their own lives in rescuing others. The fol lowing was referred to the next general court for the award of the silver medallion of the society : Mr. W. Ramsay, clerk, for saving Jemima Ray, who accidentally fell into the River Tay, at Spring-• land, near Perth, on the sth of October. The bronze medallion was awarded to the following :—To John Dunn, ablebodied seaman on board her Majesty's ship Mutine, for assisting to save James Fleming, an ablebodied seaman of the same vessel, who was knocked off the bowsprit at sea, in lat. 8.40 N., long. 94'10 W., on the 24th of June ; to Miss E. H. Chubb and Margaret Cubbon, for saving Eleanor Cowley and trying to save Christian Cowley and Ann Kewley, who went beyond their depth while bathing in the sea at Ouchan, Isle of Man, on July 16th ; to William H. Francis, ablebodied seaman of her Majesty's ship Diadem, for saving William Murphy, a boy, who fell into the sea at Halifax on the 6th of September ; to Henry R. Cooke, for saving a boy, aged 12, who was carried away by the sea beyond his depth while bathing at Margate on the 19th of September ; and to John Council, hatter, for saving Samuel Dutton, who accidentally fell into a pond at Denton, near Manchester, on the 2d of October. The claim of William F. Murrough, for saving Annie Paterson, who fell into the sea at Passage West, county of Cork, on the 29th of Sep tember, was referred for further particulars. Thanks on parchment were given to the following :—To William M. Taylor, for saving a boy who acci dentally fell into the Surrey Canal, Camberwell, on the sth of October ; and to Thomas Sharer, ship broker, for saving William Windus, a little boy, nine years of age, who fell into the Regent's Canal, Caledonian-road, on the 13th of October. Pecu niary rewards of various amounts were given to the following :—To William Prime, labourer, for trying to save William J. Francis, who accidentally fell into the Regent's Canal, Mile end, on the 19th of ? August; to Dennis Collins, a publican, for receiving at his house and assisting to recover Mrs. Rosen burg, who attempted to commit suicide by jumping into the Grand Surrey Canal, Old Kent-road, on the 26th of September; to William Little, wood-turner, for rescuing Caroline Horman, who attempted sui cide by jumping into the New River at Highbiary on the 7th of October ; to Thomas Vaughan, barge builder, for saving Charles Sinclair, who fell into the Regent's Canal Basin, City-road; to William Barson, servant, for saving Sarah and Henry Russell, who fell into the New River at Highbury on the 19th of October; and to James Hurley, labourer, and Henry J. Godfrey, water man, for saving Julia Hunt, who fell into the river Thames at Hungerford on the 20th of October. Mr. Williams, the superintendent of the society, reported that, notwithstanding the severe weather of the last few days, there were still several bathers in the Serpentine every morning, although on Mon day the frost was so intense that upon coming out of the water they were unable to comb out their hair. On Tuesday and yesterday a large number of sliders and skaters visited the water in St. James's Park, the Long Water, and the Round Pond, but no accidents of a serious nature occurred. In St. James's Park, on Tuesday, the number of skaters and sliders was 1,500, and durin g the day 22 men and boys were immersed-9 of them at one time— but were rescued by the society's boatmen without any other injury than a severe ducking ; on the Long Water the number was 150, and on the Round Pond 200. Some other business of a mere formal nature having been disposed of, thanks were voted to the chairman, and the Court adjourned. TBIS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. IM?ERIAL WEEKLY AVERAGES.
