THE MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LANCA- SHIRE RAILWAY COMPANY. The Lord Chancellor (in delivering judgment at the con clusion of the arguments of counsel on both sides) said—l have come to the same conclusion as the Master of the Rolls, dismissing the plaintiff's bill, but on different grounds. The Lord Chancellor founded his opinion on the personal exception taken against the appellant found in his own affidavit, in which he states that he was instructed by the directors of the rival company to institute this suit, and that they would pay all costs and charges. The Lord Chancellor said that the plaintiff was the mere puppit of the opposition company—that he was not acting as a bona fide shareholder as in the case of the South Eastern Railway Company, but that the whole suit was a mockery and an imposition on the court. The Lord Chancellor affirmed the decision of the Master of the Rolls, and dismissed the appeal with costs. THE LIFE ASSOCIATION OF SCOTLAND T. SIDDAL. This was a petition by Mrs. Georgina St. Simon, wife of John Simon, by her next friend, to get the payment of certain costs of suit paid out of 12,535 in court. Their lordships allowed four set of costs to be paid out of this sum, and declared the husband's assignee entitled to his interest in the 3 per. Cent Reduced Annuities devised to his wife in the Bank of England; and allowed the wife and daughter to apply for a suitable aliment out of the same. The completion of this order to be staid for that purpose. (Before the Lords Justices of Appeal.) APPEAL JUDGMENTS-SALTMAESII T. BARRETTS. The contention in this case between the executors and next of kin of the late William Saltmarsh, who died 22d May, 1837, arises on the construction of his will and codi cils, and the question raised was, whether the testator de vised the residue of his estate to his executors absolutely or beneficially; and whether there was not an intestacy. Lord Justice Turner concurred in the decision of the Master of the Rolls declaring that the executors did not take beneficially. Lord Justice Knight Bruce was of a contrary opinion. Their lordships affirmed the decision of the Master of tke Rolls, and dismissed the appeal without costs. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE J. DE "WOOLF COCHRANE. THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK.—Surrender of Mr. Coch rane, one of the directors. A petition was heard this morning in the case of J. De Woolf Cochrane for leave to surrender to an adjudication in Bankruptcy against the bankrupt, who was one of the directors of the Royal British Bank. Mr. Bailey appeared in support of the petition, and put in an affidavit of the bankrupt, that ho was in Palestine at the time he was declared bankrupt, and could not surren.. der according to the Act. Mr. Linklater, for the assignees, did not offer any oppo sition, and his Honour allowed the bankrupt to surrender. POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DANGEROUS CHARACTERS. CAUTION TO HOUSE KEEPERS.—Two men, named W. Robinson and John Pet tingell, the latter of whom has spent a large portion of his time in prison, was charged with loitering in Pall-mall, &c., with intent to commit a felony. From the evidence of Charles Brown, 104 A, it appeared that seeing the prisoners in Trafalgar -square the previous night, about nine o'clock, he watched them, in company of a gentleman, and saw them loitering about several streets at the West-end. He took them into custody, with the assistance of Sergeant Draper, and while going through George-court the prisoner Robinson tried to throw him, at the same time dropping a skeleton key. Pettingell had had four years' penal servitude, and was only just from prison after three months from this court for a skeleton key robbery in George-street, Hanover-square. He found on Robinson a key and silent matches, and also some matches on Pettingell. Mr. Coathupe, surgeon, 11, Charlotte-street, Fitzroy square, proved, while talking to Brown, seeing the prisoners pass, and he followed them with the constable and saw them together. Robinson said it was no use saying anything, and Pet tingell denied being in Robinson's company. Mr. Tyrwhitt having spoken in highly complimentary terms of the officer, and also of Mr. Coathupe for his trouble, discharged Pettingell, and committed Robinson for 21 days. THAMES. ALLEGED CRUELTY ON BOARD AN AMERICAN SHIP.— A wretched-looking creature, who said he was an Eng— lish seaman, and that his name was Feard, crept into the, witness-box, and said he had been dreadfully ill-used on. board an American ship called the Taylor, which arrived. in this port on Friday afternoon. The poor fellow was in. a deplorable condition and suffering great pain. He had. no shoes and stockings on his feet. Ono foot was bandaged,. and he said he had been knocked down and stamped upon,. and one of the officers had trodden upon his foot, and it was in a very mutilated state. ' Mr. Selfe—Where and when did this happen? The applicant—At sea, your worship. Mr. Selfe—l cannot interfere. I have no jurisdiction over offences alleged to have been committed on boaad. American ships at sea. The Applicant—l was ill-used and knocked about in the Channel. Mr. Selfe—That is out of my jurisdiction, and I have no• more power to interfere than I should have if the assault was committed in New York or Boston. The Applicant—They have lamed me, my toes are wounded, and I am disabled altogether. Mr. Selfe—Has any ill-treatment been used towards you since the arrival of the ship in the river Thames or in the dock? The Applicant—No, sir ; they knocked off after leaving the Channel. 4 , Mr. Selfe—My good man I cannot give you any assist ance in the matter. The seaman was then assisted out of the witness-box and advised to apply to the American consul. Our reporter was about to despatch his messenger with the above report when Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, of Arbour square, Stepney, said his attention had just been called to a poor seaman outside the court. The man was in a frightful state, his toes wore smashed, his legs swollen, and he was only fit for an hospital. The man said that, in addition to the assaults at sea and in Channel, the chief mate of the Taylor presented a loaded pistol to his (the seaman's) head yesterday afternoon in the London Docks, swore a him, and threatened to shoot him. Mr. Selfe—That is an assault. You may have a sum mons Mr. Young. 2RIS DAY'S SKIPPING. LoNnoN, July 13.—Wind this day at noon, South- Easterly ; moderate breeze, and dull weather, with slight rain.

The little business done to-day was nearly confined to the Goodwood Stakes, and early cn Shipwreck appeared to have rather a shaky appearance ; 10 to 1 was laid and offered, but ultimately 8 to 1 was the highest offer made. Schism, Starke, and Brownie received a fair amount of support ; 25 to 1 each was taken against Voltella and Guilder, and also would have been taken about either Queen of the Vale, Surprise, or Anthem, but 20 to 1, the highest offer, was declined. 4to 1 was freely offered on the field for the Goodwood Cup. We quote some of the offers made on that event, premising that we did not see a single transaction booked.

LEGER OF 1863.—The entries for these, the three greatest events of the year, ara the largest on record. The Derby has closed with 258, the Oaks with 191, and the St. Leger with 210 subscribers. This shows a vast majority over the greatest number in any one year hitherto. The largest entry of previous years for the two Epsom events was in 1859 for the Derby, the num ber of subscribers being 246, and for the Oaks in 1849, when they numbered 172. Thus the year 1863 will show an in crease of 12 for the Derby, and 19 for the Oaks. The St. Leger of 1862 has had hitherto the heaviest entry, but the succeding year will show an increase of 27. The following comparative table will show at a glance the increase already mentioned : Greatest Entry Hitherto. In 1860. In 1863.

THE HIGII-PRICED YEARLINGW,—The 1,500 guinea yearling, by West Australian out of Ellerdale, purchased by Col. Towneley at the Middle Park sale, has been named Nugget ; and the 1,000 guinea yearling (half-brother to Diophantus), by The Cure out of Equation, has been named by Lord Stamford )Enopides ; and his colt, by Wild Dayrell out of Moodkee, for which his lordship gave 1,100 guineas, at the same time, Umballah.

The French Government have offered to exempt the company from harbour and other d ues , w hich would amount to upwards of £ 5OOO a-year, pro vided such daily communication is established. At present the communication is only tri-weekly. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Six o'clock. ITALY. At letter from Turin of the 9th says:—" The Marquis Caracciolo, a deputy in the Parliament, is about to go to Lisbon on a mission similar to that which the Marquis De Torrearsa fulfils at Stock holm. As to Belgium the Government has not yet sent to it any notification. The system of Count Cavour which is followed by his successor was net to force the march of events, and in particular not to create any embarrassment to Governments whose position might be difficult. With regard to Russia, there is no appearance thus far that tho presence of M. De Stackelberg will lead to a b renewal of diplo matic relations ; and that diplomatist maintains great reserve. The Official Gazette contains several nominations of governors of provinces. Among them is that of Count M. Amari, the Sicilian Sena tor, who is distinguished both by talent and eharater ; he has been appointed to the governor ship of Modena. The choice of the other persons isnot so happy, inasmuch as they are not supposed to possess superior qualities ; but perhaps they will be found better than their reputation. The Minister of the Interior has dismissed a vast number of governors and intendants (prefects and sub-prefects) in the Kingdom of Naples; he has in fact executed a veritable Saint-Bartholomew among them. The victims are altogether unknown, and probably they are the creatures of M. Liborio Romano. That deputy is very angry at the matter, and in the sitting of the Chamber to-day he wanted to address an interpellation to the Government on the subject ; but the President, in accord with the Government, succeeded, not, however, without some difficulty, in postponing it indefinitely. The Ministry is anxious to avoid a Parliamentary debate on the affairs cf Naples, and it cannot be blamed, seeing that cir cumstances are not favourable for discussion, and that it is not prudent to pour oil on the flames."

We are enabled to state that the English detec tive officers sent over to Paris to apprehend the Baron de Vidil succeeded in effecting his capture in that capital on Thursday last. Telegraphic intel- ligence of the fact was received late the same even ing at Scotland-yard, with a request for instruc tions. The question arising upon the Extradition Treaty not having been yet settled, the officers have been desired to retain the accused in custody, and await further advice from London. THE FRIGHTFUL ENCOUNTER IN NORTBUIIIBERLAND-STREET. It was fully expected at Charing-cross Hospital, last evening, that Mr. Roberts, one of the parties engaged in the fearful struggle, would not survive the night, but this morning it was thought the man was much better than could have been expected. There are now some hopes that he will in some measure recover from the injuries, although they are of the most alarming nature. Major Murray also improves. A. bullet has been extracted from his neck, and the result has been less suffering on his part. The report of the state of the two parties received at Bow-street Police -court agrees with that given above, but notwithstanding one of the magistrates win remain at the court until late this evening. With respect to the cause of quarrel nothing definite has yet been discovered , but Maj or M urray gives the following v ersion of the affair : " Yesterday morning, about half-past eleven, I had come from London -bridge by the boat to Hungerford. I was going to 28, Parliament-street, the office of the Gros venor Hotel Company, of which I am a director. Mr. Roberts stopped me on Hungerford-bridge, and said to me, ' Major Murray, I think.' I said, That is my name.' He said, ' You are a director of the Grosvenor Hotel Com pany.' I replied, Ido not know any greater shareholder than myself but one ; how do you know me ?' Ho said, I have seen you at your meetings at the hotel in Palace yard,' meaning the King's Arms. He said, 1 hear that you are about to borrow money.' I said, lam not aware of it.' He said, My office is close here ; come with me ; I want to speak to you on the matter.' I went with him, and sat down by the escritoire. He said, What are your terms ?' I replied, I really can't tell you; I don't know that we require money, but I will come and tell you at 3 o'clock to-morrow. All at once he came right be hind me, fired a pistol, and shot me in the back of the neck. I fell. When down, he shot again, and the ball glanced from my forehead over the temple on the left side. He stood over me several minutes, and I could feel his breath. I feigned to be dead. He went into the next room, and when I saw him come in again I sprung up, seized the tongs, and beat him as long as I could. When powerless, I removed him to the front room, and finding the doors locked, I jumped out of the window. I never saw him before in all my life." _ _ It appeared that, though the inmates of the house (North umberland-chambers, 16, Northumberland-street) heard the sound of pistols, they paid no attention to it, as it was no unusual circumstance. For two months past Mr. Roberts had been in the habit of firing pistols in his rooms. It would now seem that he must have been practising with ball, as one of the marble jambs of the chimney-piece is much disfigured by bullet-marks. There is also a bullet hole in the wall immediately adjoining. Just under the portion of the wall which is thus marked is a pool of clotted blood, marking the spot where Major Murray fell from the effect of the first shot. The bullet marks on the marble and in the wall do not appear to be recent. The spot where the Major fell is close to the escritoire (previously alluded to), and diagonally opposite to the window from which the Major ultimately escaped. Under the window is a heap of books, papers, fragments of broken furniture, and pictures, all saturated with blood and wine. Among this heap were the remains of two broken wine bottles, which Major Murray had smashed upon the head of Mr. Roberts. An other bottle not broken, but smeared with blood, had apparently been used in the same manner. Mr. Roberts' chambers consist of two apartments, a large drawing room in front with three windows looking into Nor thumberland-street, and a smaller (hack) sitting room, with two windows overlooking the yard. A handsome ormolu writing table, at which Major Murray must have been sitting, has its baize-covered top broken away from the frame, and pushed all awry. The back of a chair is wrenched almost away from the seat. The drawer of ano ther table has been pulled out and dashed to pieces, though the table itself is untouched. The tongs, with which the s.,verest injuries had been inflicted on Mr. Roberts, were broken into half-a-dozen pieces. The window from which Major Murray escaped was nearly 20 feet from the ground. Close by the window is a wooden water pipe, by which he must have descended. At about five feet below the window the pipe turns off at an angle, and proceeds almost perpen dicularly by an adjoining wall. On this portion are distinct footmarks. From this pint he must have leaped or dropped about 16 feet to the ground. WILLS AND BEQUESTS. (From the Illustrated London News.) The will and codicil of the Hon.

GARRICK'S SHAKESPEARE CHAIR.—This famous Hoganliian relic yesterday was brought to the hammer, at Messrs. Puttick and Simpson's Leicester-square, and drew to the rooms a large number of persons. As great interest attaches to the chair, the following may not be un interesting to our readers :—lt is of elegant form, and has on the back of it a carving, in the celebrated mulberry wood, representing masks, musical instruments, and other apprca priate emblems, the whole from designs of Wm. Hogarth, who also executed the medallion. There are several ac counts of the chair, and how it became the property of Gar rick. One is, that it was a gift from the Corporation of Stratford to Garrick ; and another, that it was made fOr a Shakespeare Club, and afterwards given to Garrick. There is no doubt the bust of Shakespeare on it was by Hogarth's own hand, and is said to be the only one remaining from his hand. After a spirited competition, the chair was. knocked down to Mr. Radcliffe for 300 guineas. N
