IMP +, RIAL PARLIAMENT. ROUSE OF LORDS.-(TEUS EVENING.) The LORD GRANO - RU.OR took hie seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. The Biddenden Road, the South Shields Improvement and Quay, the Berwick, Northam, and Islandside Road, and the Strathspey Rating bills were read a second time. The Dublin, Wicklow, and Wexford Railway, and the South Eastern Railway (Capital) bills were read a third lima and passed. ADMIRALTY JURISDICTION BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR said this bill had come down from the Commons with an additional clause pro viding that the Admiralty Court should have the power of settling differences between co-owners of ships Without the necessity of going to the Court of Chancery. lie advised their lordships to agree to the clause. The amendment was agreed to. WILLS OF PERSONALTY BY BRITISH SUB- JECTS BILL. Lord KINGSDOWN moved the second reading of this m -till, which was to remedy the inconvenience entailed upon ritish subjects residing abroad by the necessity of making "rills in compliance with the statutes in force in England 'without their being in a position to know whether the ne cessary forms had been complied with. The noble lord Cited a number of cases to show how absurdly the present system operated. In the case of an Englishman residing in Paris, having real and personal estat e , w i s hi ng t o make his Will, he sends for his attorney, or, for greater safety, he conies over to this country, and having executed the instru- Ment he goes abroad and dies. His will, as far as personal .estate is concerned, is inv a lid, b ecause hi s d om i c il e h a d been changed before he died. Again, if a person wishing to travel made his will previous to his leaving England, and died abroad, his domicile had been changed, and his Will, so far as regarded his personalty, Was of no effect. He hoped their lordships Were familiar with what was meant by the term domicile, because if they were not he was sorry he could not enlighten them, notwithstanding he had while he was at the bar taken part in the argument of many cases which turned upon the meaning of the term domicile. LLEFT SPEAIING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIS EVENING.) The SPEAKrar took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time :—Brighton, Uckfield, and Tunbridge Wells R a il wa y ; D ews b ury, Bat ley, and Heckmondwike Water ; Elton and Blackburn Roads ; Inverness and Perth Juncti o n R a ilw ay; Ti ver ton Roads ; Universal Private Telegraph Company ; and Oldham and Ripponden Roads. The following bills were considered and ordered for third l 'eading :—Bishop's Castle Railway, Burton-upon-Trent 'Water, Great Northern Railway (Purchases of Hertford, ke• Railway),e and Whitehaven, Cleator, and Egremont Railway. The Dartmouth and Torbay Railway Bill, the P ,, rtsea Gas Bill, and the Holyhead Road Bill were read a second tirae. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented praying that the census laciw taken should bearranged according to counties proper; in favour of the extension of railways in India, an early and clear presentation to Parliament of the accounts of that country, and other objects 'alculated to promote the interests of British Subjects in India ; in favour of the Poor Law Removal Bill; from Bainbridge, in favour of allowing Roman Catholics in workhouses the free exercise of their reli 'nous rites ; in favour of the Nonconformkt mut in favour of the budget; that affirmation in courts of jus tice may be permitted instead of oaths in certain cases ; against the Poor-law Removal Act ; in favour of and against the repeal of the paper duties ' • in favour of the sys tem of national education in Ireland, &c. ITALY. Lord J. RUSSELL laid on the table further cones- POndence relating to the affairs of Italy. INDIAN SOLDIERS IN CHINA. Col. SYKES gave notice that on Thursday next he Would move for a return on the subject. MARRIAGE LAW AMENDMENT ACT. In reply to Mr. M. MILNES, The SPEAKER said that the house on Wednesday last declined to read this bill a 2d time, and passed a resolution to the effect that an alteration in the existing law relative to marriage, by which there would b e a different law in different parts of the kingdom, would be most inconvenient. It was competent to the hon. member to ask the house to name another day for the second reading of the bill. How ever, he thought that the most proper way of dealing would be to withdraw the bill and introduce another framed in conformity with the expressed opinion of the house. (Laughter.) . INDIAN ARMY. Mr. BENTINCK asked the Secretary of State for India 'whether he had any objection to lay before the house copies of the orders or communications sent or made by him to the Governor-General for carrying out the amalgamation of the Royal and local armies, and for giving effect to her Majesty's '.arrant for the formation of a staff corps for India, dated J n., 16, 1861, together with copies of all dis ments and opinions recorded on that measure by members of the Council of India Jan. 1861 ? Sir C. WOOD said he did not consider it would be con venient to produce the documents in question. THE SLAVE TRADE. Mr. W. E. FORSTER asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the conference of the Ambassadors and Ministers of the Courts of France, the United States, Spain, Portugal, and Brazil, which in his circular despatch to her Majesty's Ministers at these Courts, dated Feb. 11, 1860, he proposed should be held in London in the months of May or June of that year, to consider what mea sures could be taken to check the increase of the slave trade, and finally provide for its total abolition, was held, and if not held in consequence of the refusal to attend such Conference by any of the above mentioned Powers, whether he had any objection to state which Powers so refused, and on what reasons they based their refusal ? Lord J. RUSSELL was understood to say that the United States would not consent to the proposition made te.the Government of that country on the subject. THE FACTORY ACTS. Lord H. LENNOX asked the Secretary of State for the Rome Department, whether it was the intention of ,the Government to introduce during the present session any measure to carry out the recommendations of Mr. Tremen keere, contained in his report on " expediency of subjecting the lace manufacture to the regulations of the Factory Acts ?" Sir G. C. LEWIS said it was intended by the Govern• taunt to bring in such a bill as that alluded to this session. EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN. Viscount RAYNHAM asked the, r , hancellor of the Ex chequer whether, in order to extend the 1 o l employment of women, it would, in his opinion, be advisaoi, l evy a tax upon all men employed in linendrapers' and other swo t .. of that description ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said much injustice was inflicted on women by their exclusion from diff e rent employments now entirely occupied by melik• but he did not think it would be desirable to use taxation for the purpose of regulating the distribution of labour. THE CONVICT HENRY DENHAM. In reply to Viscount RAYNHAM, Siu G. C. LEWIS said that the license against Henry Denham, who was convicted at the Lambeth Police-court, had been revoked. PAUPER CHILDREN. Viscount RAYNHAM asked the President of the Poor Law Board what steps he proposed to take witl4. reference to the condition of pauper children in workhouses, as stated in the report of the Commissioners on Education ? Mr. VILLIERS said that the subject was under consi deration. THE DUTY ON PAPER. In reply to Sir M. PETO, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he intended to proceed in the same way as last year, namely, to allow Id. in the pound drawback. DUTY ON SUGAR AND HOPS. _ _ Mr, DODSON asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what loss he estimated would ensue to the revenue of the financial year 1861.2 if the duties on sugar were re newed, from the Ist of July next, at the rates at which they stood in September, 1854, under the Act 17 and 18 Vic. c. 29, instead of at the rates at which they now stand ; and whether he would state at what amount he estimates the revenue to be derived from the excise duty on the growing crop of hops and from th© cus toms duty upon hops in the current financial year? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that a good deal of inconvenience would result if there was any alteration' in reference to the sugar duties this year. He estimated the deficiency from the failure of hops at about £1,400,000. NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. BRAND, a writ was ordered to issue for the election of a member for Banffshire in the room of Sir Langton Gordon Duff, who has resigned. THE BUDGET. On the motion for going into committee of ways and means, Mr. T. BARING said that in offering some objections to the :financial statement of the right hon. genitei n the Chancellor of the Exchequer he wished to disclaim any lu tention expressing a want of confidence in the Government, for budgets had been modified with out such being construed as any want of nconfidence in the ➢Ministry of the day. lie did not then 'wish to offer any opposition to the treaty with France, and aud 3 od that it would act for the mutual benefit of both owl- MONEY MARKET .AND CITY NEWS. --- - .1 --- CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The improvement in the weather, and the greater ease in the general Money Market, have caused a more cheerful feeling in the various manu facturing districts during the past week. At Leeds a fair business has been done in light fabrics for the summer demand. Business at Manchester has also shown symptoms of revival, particularly for goods suitable to the India markets, while at Bradford, Huddersfield, and Rochdale, moderate transactions have taken place in light fancy cloths, and a decided improvement has occurred in the hosiery and lace department at Leicester and Not tingham. In the hardware districts there is no material alteration to notice, although in a few in stances a 'more buoyant tone has prevailed. At Birmingham there has been a slight improvement in the demand for home requirements ; and at Shef field, Walsall, anti Wolverhampton the receipt of a few continental orders has given increased employ ment to the operatives ; a large number of whom, however, are still only working "short time." In the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday, business was not quite so active, but prices were firm. The sales were about 8,000 bales. The Discount Market continues in a quiescent state, the inquiry for commercial purposes being very moderate, while the absorption for joint stock enterprise and speculative adventure is unusually limited. There is an abundant supply of money, and as the quantity of bills brought forward is small, the rates, which are influenced by compe tition, still show a downward tendency, owing, however, to the augmented demand for silver on Eastern account, and the possibility of a reflux of gold to the Continent. A ftather decline in the Bank of England minimum quotation is less confi dently spoken of, although large supplies of specie are expected from Australia, the West Indies, &c., which will probably be sufficient to meet the ex port demands. The half-yearly meeting of the Oriental Bank Corporation has been held to-day, at which the re port was adopte-d, and a dividend of 6 per cent., together with a bonus of 4 per cent. was declared, making a total distribation of 16 per cents. for the past year. There has not been much animation to-day in the market for Public Securities, but, owing to some speculative purchases Consols have risen to 92 for transfer, and to 92 928 for the account. Business, however, continues very dull. The New Threes and the Reduced remain at 9011. Bank Stock has advanced to 234. India 5 per Cent. Loan is steady at 1011 2fr; ditto 4 per Cent. Enfaced Paper has improved to 781; ditto 5 per Cent. to 941 ; and Exchgquer Bills. 2s. dis. to I.s. prem., showing no alteration. Business in the Foreign Market has been quiet, but prices in some instances have improved. Turkish 6 per Cents, are 701 ; ditto, 1858, 531 54; Dutch 21 per Cents, have advanced to 63i 641 ; Russian 5 per Cents. to 102 ; and Spanish to 491 1 ; Danish 3 per Cents. are 82. Ths, ; thc railway anare Market have been on a rather limited scale and the variations in values unimportant. Great Westerns, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Midlands have improved 55., Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee declined 10s. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there has been only a limited business transacted. South Austrian and Lombardo are steady at 121. Grand Trunk of Canada have declined to 201, and East Indian to 99 ; Great Indian Peninsula have im proved to 941 951. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been dealt in to a limited extent, at about previous quotations. London and Westminster have de clined ss. ; and Union of Australia ss.

The Church Estates Com• missioners report the sales of reversions and purchases of leasehold interests which they have approved during the year, and state that since August, 1851, they have approved 2,127 transactions, and the value of the property dealt with exceeds £7,750,000. They add that there is a sensible dimi nution in the number of transactions reported for the last year, and that the decrease may point to the conclusion that the system of voluntary enfranchisement by the episcopal and capitular corporations will only require to be maintained for a limited period. INCREASING VALUE OF LAND IN THE HOME COUNTIES.—The Eyeworth estate, lately advertised for sale by auction, has been disposed of by private treaty by Messrs. Chinnock and Galsworthy, of London. The pro perty, consisting of the whole of the parish of Eyeworth, containing about 1,220 acres, with the advowson attached, and producing about £1,480 per annum, has realised the large price of £55,000. There being no residence on the estate, it can only be regarded as a pure landed investment, being at the rate of upwards of 361 years' purchase.—Bed ford Times. POOR RELIEF IN IRELAND,—I n the year ending at Michaelmas last 170,649 ind9or poor and 8,965 outdoor poor were relieved in Ireland,—an increase over the pre vious year of 16,843 indoor poor and 3,540 outdoor. Still the numbers were - small ; although all but a mere fraction were —lieved in the workhouse, the average daily number of indoor poor .-.4 only 41,341 —an increase 0f972 over the previous year. The (xpeuaiture amounted to £454,266, or 9d. in the pound on the valuation .E . rateable property, £12,280,029.

He considered that the remission of one penny on the income tax and the repeal of the paper duty were not justified by the circumstances of the country, and proceeded upon an assumption of peace and prosperity, none of which could be relied on as certain of realisation. (Hear.) He did not think that the surplus which the Chancellor of the Ex chequer contemplated was as certain as the right hon ourable gentleman suggested, though at the same time he believed the expenditure, which was esti mated at over £69,000:000, would be found suffi cient for the exigences of the country, for he could not suppose a finance minister would underestimate that expenditure. The statement relative to the China war was not at all con clusive, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer might find that he had made a miscalculation in reference to that impost. He then reverted to the repeal of the paper duty, and said that the interposition of the other house last year in reference to this tax was a real blessing to the country. (Hear hear, from the Conservative benches.) He thought it was neither wise or safe to remit the tax alto gether, and he appealed to the Government to reconsider this subject. 7he Chancellor of the Exchequer said that the way in which the income tax could be reduced was by diminishing .the public expenditure, but he trusted that any such diminution would be 'effected without in the slightest degree affecting the efficiency of the public ser vice, for that would be a most injurious economy. The bon. gentleman then went through the different points of the budget, and said he did not consider the budget either wise or politic, or oven honest. As his object was to elicit a full discussion, he would not adopt the course of offering a direct negative to the motion.

The supplies of wheat on sale in 'most of the country markets held on Saturday were limited. For good and fine qualfties there was a fair demand, at mostly full quotations. Inferior sorts, however, were a dull inquiry. Barley, oats, beans, and peas commanded full currencies. The flour trade was in a sluggish state. Throughout the continent wheat has changed hands heavily, and prices have had a drooping tendency. All descriptions of spring corn are dull. In the United States very little change has taken place in prices. Only limited supplies of home produce were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad amounted to 20,103 quarters of wheat, 2,060 barley, 15,812 oats, 625 beans, 851 peas, 30 tares, 3,037 linseed, 2,228 rape • seed, 745 maize, 923 sacks and 528 brls. of flour. The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to this morning's market were again'on a very moderate scale, but the con tinuance of favourable wearier has tended to further im prove the condition of the samples. For good and fine qualities the demand ruled steady, and prices were fairly supported. All inferior parcels, however, were a dull in quiry, but without leading to any quotable change in their value. The inquiry for foreign wheat was devoid of animation. Generally speaking, however, holders were firm, and, com pared with last week, no alteration can be reported in prices. Floating cargoes were in limited request, at about pre vious currencies . Fine malting barley commanded a steady sale, at quite last week's quotations ; but inferior kinds, as well as grind ing and distilling sorts, were a dull sale, on former terms. The transactions in malt were of a limited character, at the prices current on Monday last. The oat trade ruled firm, at an improvement in the quo tions of 6d per quarter. Beans were in good request, at an advance of is per quarter. Grey peas brought is per quarter mere money ; but other kinds, especially white, were very dull. In flour a very moderate business was doing. Yet late rates were fairly maintained. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

There was only a moderate supply of foreign stock in our market to-day. On the whole, the demand ruled steady, at about previous quotations. From our own grazing districts, as well as from Scotland, the arrivals of beasts fresh up this morning were seasonably good, and in full average condition. The attendance of buyers was rather numerous, and nearly all breeds of beasts commanded a steady inquiry, at last Monday's currency. The eiskreme value of the best Scots was 5s per Sibs. The receipts from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam bridgeshire, amounted to 2,000 Scots, ; from other parts of England, 500 various breeds; and, from Scotland, 400 Scots and crosses. We were again fairly supplied with sheep, the quality of which exhibited some improvement. The mutton trade ruled firm, at full quotations. The beat old Downs in the wool realised 5s 10d, out of the wool 5s to 5s 2d per 81bs. Prime lambs commanded a steady sale, at full prices. Otherwise, the lamb trade was in a sluggish state. The quotations ranged from 6s to 7s 4d per 81bs. From the Isle of Wight, 320 lambs reached us in p 'or condition. We have to report a dull sale for calves at a decline in the currencies of 2d per 81bs. The top price for veal was 5s 6d per 81bs. Pigs—the supply of which was moderate—ruled steady, on former terms.

The business doing in our market is still confined, for the most part, to good and fine yearling and old hops, at, in some instances, further enhanced rates.

This was a writ of error from a decision of the Exche quer Chamber in Ireland, and the question raised was whether a clergyman of the Church of England could law fully marry himself by reading in private the marriage service of the Church of England. Their laleships were of opinion that the marriage was not lawful, and that the children of the marriage were no legitimate. Their lordships gave judgmeLt for the plaintiff in error, and reversed the decision of the Court below. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. Before the Judge Ordinary and Justices `ll , ightman and Williams. LIUDDONT v. TRE ATTORNEY-GENERAL AND PATRICK. This morning Miss Slleaduil .pplloa eo tr,.e court to allow her further time to make her application for a re hearing of the above case. In making her application the young lady earnestly entreated the Court to grant what she required, because she felt, if time was allowed her, she should be able to prove that she stated in her affidavit merely that fraud, falsehood, and perjury had been com mitted by the other side, in order to obtain a favourable judgment. The Judge Ordinary asked Miss Sheddon if she was now making her application for a re-hearing. Miss Sheddon said she was simply askinethat increased time for making out her application might be accorded her. The Judge Ordinary told her she did not require an order from the Court to do that. The Court could not interfere at the present time, She could do as she pleased, whether she made the application or not, and take the responsibility of such a step. The Court had nothing to do with it. Miss Sheddon said she should like to inform the Court why she did not then make the application. The Judge• Ordinary said there was no necessity for her doing so. If the application was made on a future day the Court might say that it was made late, ar,d then the rea sons could be stAthd, which might or might not be consi dered sufficient. Miss Sheddon said she would not urge the point further. At the termination, of the former trial the whole of the papers that had been produced in tout t were returned to Mr. William Patrick, who since that time had died. Now, as a great number of those documents had come upon her by surprise she begged the Court would make an order to enable her, or her counsel, to inspect such portions of them, under proper supervision, as might be thought necessary. A statement had been made by the Court that her father had surreptitiously abstracted certain documents from the Court of Session, but that statement she could only think had been made by parties who had the greatest interest in the proceedings. She altogether denied that any of the papers had been obtained wrongfully by her father; the papers had been obtained by herself, and if anything of a surreptitious nature had been done, which she utterly denied, she :was the person responsible. Her father had never set foot in Scotland after the year 1852, and it was not until the hearing that herself or father heard that there was any such charge against them, and they had been taken completely by surprise, as also by the production of documents which had been withheld from'her inspection. It was absolutely necessary in order that her counsel should be in a position properly to make out affidavits to be used in making the motion for a rehearing, and which documents were believed to be in the hands of Mr. Carmen and Mr. M'Kewan, two of the trustees of the late Mr. William Patrick. She also desired that these gentlemen be called upon to appear at the hoar lug, and to produce the documents, more especially a letter dated June 14, 1839, and th 9 letters of Dec., 1798 and 1799, and also the bond for £4,000, said to have been executed by her grandfather, which she asserted was a forgery. Her father had been most relentlessly persecuted for fourteen years, and for the last four years and a half he had been confined in prison, but on Saturday last he was restored to liberty, and no one but a daughter whose parent was placed as hers had been could feel the joy she felt at such a moment. He had not had the opportunity of e.osely and minutely looking over the papers, and now that :he was at liberty she trusted that, under proper supervision, they might be allowed to exa mine and take copies of such as they thought most mate rial. It was true that, towards the close of the former trial, she had been allowed about twenty mi nutes' inspection of the documents that had occasioned her so much surprise. Her father being in prison, she was accompanied by Mr. Nethercliff, an expert in handwriting, and while that gentleman was occupied making his notes Mr. Carmen's conduct was such that to preserve self respest she was compelled to leave the room. Mr. Miller, who was also present, was excessively insolent; and having had to endure it once she would take care she did not suffer the same indignity again. Scott had truthfully drawn the picture of daughter defending her aged father; and Glossin, they all knew, did not scruple to turn round and insult that girl. She could not say how extremely difficult she felt her present Position, but as there could be little trouble and expense in granting her request, she implored the court to grant it. It was a duty it held to itself as well as justice to her father. If the court had been misled into making statements that were inconsistent with the fact, it was but right such should be most rigidly examined into—justice demanded that the charges should be searchingly investigated, and she felt certain, if it should appear that the court had been wilfully misled, it well knew how to vindi cate its own dignity. She pleaded thus :earnestly on this point because her counsel, Mr. Collier, had not read or even seen some of the documents, and it would be impossible for him to master the difficulties with which the case was surrounded without the fullest information. She did not wish for anything that was unreasonable, and .uicly it could not be considered so by her ciolting that the 'par ties at present having the custody of the papers of the late Mr. William Patrick should be cited to that court to pro duce them. Dr. Deane said he appeared for the respondents. The Judge Ordinary thought he had no locus stanch. There was, in fact, nothing before the Court. Miss Shed don had, as•he understood the case, made three applica tions to the Court first, that the time for making the application for, the rehearing of the suit might be postponed. Secondly, that certain documents should be inspected and copied by order of the Court ; and, thirdly, ,flut certain persons be cited to appear ,svith those docu ments. With respect to the first there was no occasion to apply to the Court to grant further time for making the application for reopening the case. When the application was made then would be the proper time fcr the Court to say whether the reasons offered justified the application, as the Court could not deal with it. With reference to the production of the documents referred to, they related to a suit that had been before the Court. That suit had ter minated, there had been a judgment, and the documents were retained in the hands of the parties who had produced them in court, and he could not at the present moment order their production for the purpose Miss Sheddon re quired. With respect to citing certain persons to appear, there was as yet no proceeding or suit in that court to attend which he could cite them. As he had said before, there had been a suit and there had been a judgment; and if an application to re-bear that case was to be made, the Court would then hear patiently all the reasons that could be advanced for such a proceeding. The other Judges concurred with the Judge Ordinary. Miss Sheddon thanked the Court for its attention, and withdrew with her father and friends. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before the Assistant Judge.) IMPORTANT TO MEMBERS OF THE VOLUNTEER RIFLE CORPS.-REILLY V.FRINNERY. This was an action to recover £5 35., the value of a rifle supplied to defendant, who is a member of the 4th Surrey Rifles. _ _ Jewitt, of Leadenhall•street, appeared for the de fendant, and pleaded payment. John Baker said he was manager to the plaintiff, who is an ironmonger carrying on business in Oxford-street. In October, 1859, a rifle was supplied to defendant. The price was £5 36., which had not been paid. There was a contract with the regiment, but witness had not brought it. By Mr. Jewitt—Knows a person named Sergeant Doughty. Mr. Dewitt (handing the witness a document)—Now read that. What is it ? _ _ Witness-- is a receipt signed by the sergeant acknowledging payment of the money for this rifle. Mr. Jewitt—And signed for Reilly ? "Witness—Yes, but he had no authority from our firm to sign for us - or to receive money on our account. He i s not in our employ, neither is he our agent. I believe he was confidential agent to the 4th Surrey Rifles. Z 11,4 Ye laQver supplied him with rifles, but I have delivered rifles to hina t and delivered to him the one now sued for. I never agreed to pay him a commission. He has had presents, but was never led to suppose that he was to have commission, though he now claims it. I was introduced to the corps by a cer tain gentleman. Mr. Jewitt—Our case is that we have paid the money. Doughby brought the rifle to defendant, and produced a bill from Reilly. My client looked upon him as the agent of Reilly, and paid the debt. His Honour—The difficulty is to show that Doughty was the agent authorised of the plaintiff. It does not follow that because Doughty was authorised to get orders that he was also empowered to receive money. You see defen dant had an account from the plaintiff, and, consequently, must have known to whom he was indebted for this rifle. Mr, Dewitt—The sergeant is here, and your Honour will hear his evidence. Sergeant Doughty said he was formerly in the 4th Surrey Rifles, but now was not. The receipt put in was signed by witness. Had introduced a number of members to plaintiff', and had altogether received from plaintiff's manager about 30 rifles. Baker promised to give witness a commission of 5 per cent., and witness claimed something now. Witness had received money and paid it over to Baker, w ho allowed witness to do so. Baker—Never without you produced the bill. Witness—lndeed you have. Baker—l never received money from you without a pro• per bill. Witness—l have paid you money when I have received it in my ownname. Mr. 3 - swift—Name one person who has paid you, under such circumstances. Witness —Mr, Martineau, a member of the corps. Baker —A precisely similar case to the present. Witness—l know you say so, but 1 have paid you and often have tried to bring it to your mind. Mr. Jewitt—Name another. Witness—Mr. Nash. Baker—Will you swear you gave Nash a receipt in your own name ? Witness—No. Sometimes Reilly s i gne d th e bill s . I cannot mention any other but M ar ti neau. Baker—Did I ever give you authority to sign for the firm ? Witness—Never, You owe me commission. ...a I hold the money to pay myself. Kea uonour You ilea not any right to do so. If you have any claim upon the plaintiff for commission y ou should sue him, but you have no right to hold the money. Baker (t) the witness)—For what did you leave the corps ? Witness—Never mind. His Honour—That will do. It is perfectly clear that the defendant is liable. He has paid the wrong person, and an unauthorised agent. Mr. Jewitt —My client having paid the money a long damage, considered that he was bound, upon public grounds, t) defend the case, and ascertain the facts. His Honour—There is no imputation upon your client, who has acted perfectly fair throughout. He can reco ver from the Sergeant. The verdict now will be for the plaintiff. P OLIVE INTELLIGEN CE.—( This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A POLISH REFUGEE CHARGED WITH THREATENING TO CUT HIS WIFE'S THROAT.—Joseph Sesnoski, a Polish refugee, by trade a bootmaker, was charged before Mr. Selfe with threatening to cut his wife's throat. The wife, having stated that the prisoner had several times threatened to cut her throat and his own afterwards, that he had beaten her children several times, and that he had beaten her black and blue and struck her in the eye, handed in the following certificate : This is to cet tify that Joseph Jesnoski, a Polish refugee, residing at 24, Dudley-street, is unfit to take care of him self, and is dangerous t others. T gave a certificate to this effect seven weeks ago, when he was in St. Giles's Work house. He remained there some weeks, but was sent out, his wife tells me, because he was not sufficiently insane. Tilos. YOUNG, Government Medical Officer to the Polish Emigration Society. 8, Sackville-strcot. Mr. Selfe—lf the man is a lunatic, this is not the proper place to bring him to. (To the prisoner)—Your wife says you threaten to cut her throat ? . _ Pi isoner—When ? • I know nothing about it. Mr. Selfe—l think the wife wishes to get rid of the burthen of him. The wife—He has a pension from Government, and that will go to keep him. A constable having stated that he had seen the prisoner going about for weeks as early as 5 o'clock in the morning, dancing and kicking about, and that the other lodgers in the house were frightened of him owing to his violence, Mr. Selfe said he knew Mr. Bennett as a very humane man, and did not think he would send a man out of the house if he was insane' a ho wife said he had done no work for three months, and he was very spiteful and dangerous. Mr. Selfe—lt is a very strong measure to deprive a man of his liberty because he is a little queer. I will take Lis own bail in £lO, but if he behaves unruly again he will go to prison for three months. stock 12} 10 stock 6.4.0. stock stock stock stock stock stock stock 25 stock stock stock 10 1%16.4 10 stock stock stock stock stock 10 stock 25 stock stock stock stock stock 12 10 stock 10 toe stock stock stock stock Share) 1 I Closing Business Railways. pai d Price.

Eliza Fletcher, a married woman, said she was em ployed at the Thames Plate Glass Company's Works, and her husband was a seamen, and serving in the fleet in China. On Friday afternoon last she received a remit tance of £2O from her husband, at Hong Kong. The pri soner's wife knew she had received the money, and sail "what you don't want at present you had better give me to mind, for the lock of your door is a very defective one." She handed £lO of the money to Mrs. Alcock, and that person promised to take particular care of it. She ex pended the remainder of the money in necessaries, and the payment of her debts. On Saturday after noon she asked the prisoner's wife for the £lO, and she said her husband had taken it from her. She went in search of the prisoner, and found him at the Crown public-house, in Blackwell, and asked him for her money. He said he had not got it. She asked where it was, and what he had done with it, and he becape very abusive, and said that was best known to himself. A young woman named Simpson, the niece of the last witness, said that she lived with her aunt at No. 4, Ann's place, Orchard-house, Poplar, and saw the prisoner take the money from his wife. James Stock, a police constable, No. 184 K, said that when he took the prisoner into custody he said he had lost £8 of Mrs. Fletcher's money. The prisoner said that a girl he fell in with cut hie pocket and took the money away from him, and he could not help it. Mr. Woolrych—You had no business with the poor woman's money at all. The Prisoner—My wife gave it to me. _ _ Mr. Woolrych asked the prosecutriz why she entrusted he money to the prisoner's mire., Mrs. Fletcher—Tho prisoner is my landlord, and I thought hip wife would take care of the money. His own dm 1 saw him take the gold out of a purse and throw the purse down. Mr. Woolrych said the prisoner had better find the money and restore it t 3 the poor woman. He should for the present remand the prisoner until Monday next. The prisoner, who is a glass-cutter, said he did not care, and left the dock in the most unconcerned manner. THE WEATHER.
