Masons, Plasterers, and the Trade, and alsa I Shippers. THE PATENT STUCCO PAINT CEMENT, surpassing every article hitherto introduced, possesses the fol lowing extraordinary and valuable properties. Remarkable adhesiveness, fixing most tenaciously to the smoothest surfaces (even to gl-ss). It is perfectly impervious to wet or damp. The more it is exposed to the atmosphere, the harder and more durable it becomes It is perfectly free from any of the caustic qualities of lime, and it may therefore be painted upon as soon as dry, as it is impossible that it can vegetate or change colour, nor can it be affected by frost or heat, or crack chip, or peel off. To Merchants and Shippers, it must form a meet important item of commerce, as it will keep for any length of time, as fresh as delivered from the manufactory; with regard to price, it is cheaper than any other Cement, and its lasting qualities, render it a fortune to builders and others investing capital in building speculations. The Patentees have appointed Messrs. Mann and Co., 5, Maiden-lane, Queen-street, Cheapside, their sole agents, at whose warehouses any quantity may be had, specimens may be seen, and every information afforded. THE PERFECT SUBSTITUTE for SILVER. CATALOGUE, with ENGRAVINGS ( Gratis), POSTAGE FREE.—The celebrity of the rich and silvery appearance and extrrme durability of the material made ex clusively by ourselves, has induced many attempts to foist upon the public the notoriously deleterious German Silver under the guises of " Albata Plate," •' Berlin Silver," &c. &c., against which we especially warn them. Aided by an eminent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our material so that acids do not afiect it ; it is now so well known and appreciated that it is universally superseding silver in all its uses.' The genuine metal, which is more durable than silver, can only be had at our warehouses. It is the same through out, and can be engraved and made in all the various articles that are in silver, from which it can only be told by reference to the stamp. Fiddle Threaded King's Pattern.

IMPORTANT AND SALUTARY IMPROVEMENTS have been introduced into the practice of Life Assurance by this Company, and the following are some of its distinguishing and important features, which have been introduced after mature deliberation. They will be most conveniently pointed out by referring to Policies, as divided into two great Classes —FAMILY PROVISION POLICIES, and MONEY TRANSACTION POLICIES. FAMILY PROVISION POLICIES.— In the well founded belief that Life Assurance business is profitable, per sons making provisions for their families and mmtemplating a long duration of time between the date of the Policy and the claim to arise under it, generally prefer Assurances which may carry with them a sight to participate in the profits to be re alised by the Company during the currency of their Policies. By the Deed of Constitution of this Company, the participa ting A ssured are entitled to the. Whole of the Mutual Profits, as if they had been Assured in a purely Mutual Society and they have, at the same time, the security not only of the funds of the Company, arising from the accumulated premiums, but also the proprietary funds and subscribed capital of the Com pany. To the Shareholders are alloted ONLY those profits which are realised by the investment of their own paid capital, and from the excess of the premiums derived from the nor.- participating Assurances. This mode of Division and Profits, so advantageous to the Assured of the Participating Class, is adopted only by this Company. MONEY TRANSACTION POLICIES.—An acquain tance with the records of the Courts of Law and Equity, proves that considerable changes were required in the practice and rules of Life Offices, to render this class of Policies valid and unimpeachable documents of security, which no foreseen circumstances or future accidents could invalidate. This Company hag endeavoured, and they think successfully, to render their Policies as indefeasible and negotiable secu rities as possible, con , istently with a due regard to the safety of the contracting parties; and to effect this object. the Company has introduced the following clause into their Deed of Settle ment : Clause 78.—" That every Policy issued by the Company shall be indefeasible and indisputable, and the fact of the issuing of the same shall be conclusive evidence of its validity, and it shall not be lawful for the Company to delay payment of the money assured thereby, on the ground of any error, mis take, or omission, bowever important, made by or on the part of the person or persons effecting the same, and that on the contrary, the amount receivable under the sant, shall be paid at the time stipulated by the to the person entitled thereto, as if no such error, mistake, or omission had been made or discovered, unless the Polley shall have been obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation. In order to provide against the defeat of a Policy in the hands of a Creditor, by the Debtor, whose Life is Assured, leaving the country, and going beyond the prescribed limits, the Company grant what they term WHOLE WORLD PO LICIES, whereby, on condition of receiving an extra premium, varying in amount according to the circumstances of the case, but fixed and determined at the time of issuing the Policy, the Debtor, on whose Life an Assurance has been effected. is entitled to go to, or reside in any part of the world, without in validating the Assurance; by which means the Creditor's claim is rendered certain. To enable a party to effect an Assurance at the LEAST POSSIBLE EXPENSE, and to entitle him to discontinue it at a less sacrifice than by any other plan, a seven years' flaj premium system has been introduced; and, upon comparing the following scale with any other whii.h has been devised for seducing present payments, it will be seen how much more economically a loan tran , action can be fortified by this kind of policy than by any other. The Half-premium system pos sesses a further advantage over temporary Assurances, or those for a Term of Years, from the Assured having the option of cantinuing for Life the Policy which he way have procured for a mere temporary purpose.

R I NISTON E'S EYE SNUFF.—Under the Patronage of his late Mjesty, her Royal Highness the Duc h ess o f Kent, and the Lords of the Treasury, is universally recommended by the Faculty for its efficacy in removing dis 4rders incident to the Eyes and Head. SIGHT RESTORED!—NERVOUS HEAD-ACHE AND DEAFNESS CURED! Crucknell and Feaver ;" the composition was that Crucknell should go out, that Feavcr should take the partnership assets, and that Feaver should pay the part nership debts ; and the partnership debts, instead of being paid in full, should be paid I Is. 6d. in the pound, and that Nash should put his name to a promissory note, to secure the fourth instalment. That being the c:imi:o - proposed, it alleges that, after that proposal %I' fiS made, Nash objected to be security for the fourth instal ment, unless Crucknell would agree not to sue Hitch cock, and Truman, and Lewellin, or either of them, in respect of any cause of action whatsoever that he might have against them jointly, or any two of them separately, or either of them individually, down to that period. Then it alleges that Crucknell agreed, that if Na:h would give his indorsement to such of the creditors— What I want to draw your Lordships' attention to is, that the arrangement proposed was the usual arrange ment, or a composition deed, before I go into the argu ment upon this;—that if all the creditors of the firm will accept,lls. 6d. in the pound, we will agree to take the .11s. 6d. in the pound, and Nash is to give a security. This Nash - Objects to give that security, unless the plain tiff will agree not to sue any of the defendants, in re spect of any cause of action. Then it alleges this agree ment, that if Nash would give his security to such of the creditors of the firm as should be pleased to accept I Is. 6d, in the pound, the plaintiff would agree never to sue Truman, or Hitchcock, or Lewellin ; not that Nash would•give his security to all the creditors of the firm, so that all the creditors shottldTelease, but tIIO limited agreement was, if Nish would agree to give his security to such of the creditors of the firm as should come in. He would not agree without that stipulation. Then it alleges that Nash did give his security to such of the el:editors as came in—namely, those creditors of the fourth part, who executed the deed. Mr. PEACOCK—I appear for the defridant William Hitchcock, and I will shortly explain to you the view upon which the plea is formed. It appeared the plain tiff had a cause of action against the defendant for a misrepresentation; the declaration states that Thomas Feaver and Thomas Lewellin were in partnership, and that they were, about to dissolve partnership, and did afterwards dissolve that partnership in 1837. It then alleges that Thomas Feaver and Thomas Lewellin were at that time indebted to the defendant - and Richard Lewellin in a sum of 3,000/. • that the plaintiff was de sirous to enter into partnership with Feaver, and that the defendant misrepresented the circumstances of Feaver—that is the declaration. Now the answer to that is this—that the plaintiff and Feaver afterwards were in debted to the defendants and Richard Lewellin in 2,1071., and he was also indebted to William Nash and other creditors to the amount of 40,0001. Then there was a proposal made for a composition, and it appears that William Nash, who was one of the creditors, had off -red to become surety for one of the instalments of the composition. It appears that afterwards, and before the creditors had come in and consented to take the composition, and before Nash had actually bound him self to -any of the creditors, Nash refused to become surety for the composition unless the plaintiff would give up any cause of action he might have against the defendant in respect of the misrepresentation. Mr. ERLE—Any cause of action ? Mr. PEAcocK—Any cause of action. • The LORD CHIEF BARON—Has he giveri it up ? Has the plaintiff released him .? Mr. PEACOCK—No, my Lord, he has not released him, but the plaintiff represents to Nash, that if he will become security for him for the last of those instalments to the defendant, and his other creditors, he represents to Nash, he will give up the action as against the defendant. Then :he question is, whether, if Nash, confiding in that stipulation, and the defendants also confiding in that, came into a composition which is binding upon them, and prevents them from suing the plaintiff for the full amount of their debts, whether it would not be a fraud upon Nash, and those other creditors, who came into the composition on the faith of that representation, that the plaintiff; after they have done so upon the faith of that representation, should violate that agreement he has come to with Nash, and sue the defendant in this action for the original cause of action. That is the question. The Loan CHIEF BARON—This is a questio n b e t ween I the plaintiff and the persons with whom he made the' contract. By the mast simple, delightful, and fragrant Compound!

Mr. PEACOCK—Yes, my Lord, and the defendant; because if your Lordship will allow me to call yt ur at tention particularly to this plea, you will perceive this composition was a valid composition, and the defendant came into this composition upon the faith of that repre sentation which had been made to Nash, that Nash came into the composition also as one of the creditors upon the faith of that stipulation, and Nash also gave his secu rity to the other creditors, which induced the other cre • ditors to come in upon the faith of that representation. The question is, is it not a fraud, when all these parties have been induced to change their circumstances upon the faith of this representation, that the plaintiff; imme diately he got them into that situation, should turn round upon them all, and bring this action? That is the ques tion. Now there are many cases to show that an action may be prevented, if that action would be a fraud upon a third party. If it were alleged that, if the parties were to bring an action, it would be a fraud upon a third party, that would be a defence to the action. The LORD CHIEF BARON.—I am of opinion this plea is bad upon the grounds stated in this demurrer. That the plea may be double or multifarious cannot be a defence ; the pleading in such a manner as to be an imperfect and bad plea, does not necessarily prevent its being double ; and in my opinion, although the mode in which this is pleaded as a fraud upon the other creditors would not be sustainable, yet it is the attempt of the defendant to take that ground ; and he also so argues his plea. So with respect to the question, whether he does not mean to set up accord and satisfaction upon that ground, I think it is bad. We shall have the question by and by, whether accord and satisfaction be a good plea in this action—whether this plea is good as accord and satis faction ? All I can say is, that, though generally speak ing- a great deal of that which is stated upon this plea might be evidence to point to a conclusion, yet the plea does not state it with sufficient distinctness, if it rested only on accord and satisfaction. At all events the plea is bad, being double ; therefore I think the demurrer must be allowed. Mr. Baron ALDERSo7.—According to the argument there are t e defences :—the agreement with Nash that he should Fecome surety, in consideration of which the party is not to proceed against the present defendant— the agreem en t w ith th e defendants themselves to make out the debt for 11s. Gd. in the pound, with the additional stipulation—and then the fraud upon the rest of the creditors, as it is said, in entering into that arrangement with the knowledge that this was the arrangement between the present plaintiff and the defendant. The plea sets up ail these defences, and the•argument sug gests all those are separate defences. It seems to me the plea under all those circumstances is bad. The case must turn ultimately upon the agreement between the parties, and it would be a lawful agreement if it were with the knowledge of the rest of the creditors : that is to say, the superior advantage which the defendant gets over the rost of the creditors by having this demand released, would be no answer, because, if the reason of that stipulation were known to the creditors, there was no fraud in it, because they entered into it with full knowledge of what was done between the parties. Mr. Baron GITRNEY—I am of the same opinion. Mr. Baron ROLFE—I am of the same opinion. [ADVERTISEMENT.] IMPORTANT TO - ALL THOSE WHO EXPECT TO DE RIVE. BENEFIT FROM DRINKING SODA WATER.—SCIIWeppO'S Soda Water is so universally known and appreciated, not only throughout the United Kingdom, but throughout the civilised world, that any enconium on its merits might appear super fluous; but as since its original introduction, upwards of half a century since, many imitators have started up, with more or less claims to public patronage, J. S. and Co. take the liberty of reminding their friends and the public that the above Cele brated Water continues to be manufactured on the largest scale and upon the most scientifi c principles at their chiefes tablishment, 51, Berners-street, London; and also at their three branch Manufactories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby ; and that consumers may be supplied with the genuine article at most of the respectable Chemists, Confectioners, and Italian Warehouses in every province of the United Kingdom. The just reputation of their manufacture, and the consequent de mend for it, have tempted unprincipled persons (many of them of apparent respectability) to prartice a deception, against which Schweppe and Co. are anxious to caution the public The deception referred to is that of passing off a spurious article for " Schweppe's," by selling it in Schweppe's marked bottles. The temptation to this is, the cheapness of the infe rior water, although in most cases the consumer is charged the same. By this artifice a common water is surreptitiously palmed on the public for the genuine —the reputation of the la ter is prejudiced by the substitution of a bad article—and a certain proportion of the public patronage diverted from its legitimate channel. To obviate these several evils, Schweppe and Co. have adopted the plan of placing a Red Label over the cork of each bottle, representing the Royal Appointment in the centre, and the name of their firm on each side, with out which none is genuine. Schweppe and Co. refer with opride to the fact that they constawly supply the Royal Palaces f t London and Windsor, as well as the principal Nobility in the three kingdoms ; nor is the demand for their Soda Water less constant on the continent and in other parts of the world. Merchants and Shippers in general connected with the Ea t and West Indies and our numerous Colonies are continually transmitting orders received from their respective agents and correspondents, and highly gratif) ing is the testimony Schweppe an d Co. are in the habit of receiving from gentle. men returned from abroad, of the luxury afforded them by their e Soda Water when met with in tropical climates, and of the high condition in which it is generally found..

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, June 16. THE QUEEN V. WALTON. The Court was occupied the whole of the day with this case, which was an action brought against the defendant for the in ft ing , ment of a patent. The evidence was of a purely technical character, and totally dev. 4 4 of general interest. There is no probability if the case terminating this day. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, June 16. DAVIS V. HUMPHREYS. This was an action for assault and false imprisonment. The plaintiff was employed by the defendant to collect rents, as .d tell under the suspicion of keeping back portions of the mo neys which he received. On one occasion having received a sum of money for which he did not account, before the defendant learned it had been paid, the lat ter caused him to be taken into custody, and brought before the Magistrate at Queen-square upon a charge of felony. The Magistrate would not entertain the charge, but discharged the plaintiff. For this imprisonment the action was brought. Thd Jury having retired, for nearly an hour, re turned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 801. EXCHEQUER OF PLEAS, WESTMINSTER HALL, June 6, 1842. (Before the LORD CUIEF BARON, Mr. Baron ALDERSON, Mr. Baron GURNEY, and Mr. 'aron ROLFE.) CRUCKNELL V. HITCHCOCK —CRUCRNELL V. TRUMAN. DEMURRER. Mr. EnLE—I appear before your Lordship in support of this demurrer. The declaration recites that Thomas Fen ver and Thomas Lewellin carried on business in partnership ; and were about to disssolve, and that Thomas Feaver and Thomas Lewellin were much indebted to the firm of Truman, llitchcoek, and Richard Lewellin. Thi.4 declaration, after reciting the partnership of Feave- and Thomas Lewellin, and that they si ere about to dissolve, and that Thomas Fearer and Thomas Lewellin were in debted to the defendants and others, and that a proposal had been made to the "plaintiff to be a partner with Fearer, and that Feaver and Crucknell should pay all the debts of Fearer and Lewellin, and while the plaintiff ' was considering on this subject, and inquiring into the state of affairs of Fearer and Lewellin, the defendant falsely represented to him that he might safely enter into the copArtnership ; and he brought a large sum of money into the partnership, which has been wholly lost. The second count recites the same facts, and state that the defendants had been sureties for Fearer and Lewellin fora large aindimt, and upon inquiry of them they concealed the fact that they were sureties, and falsely represented they were not sureties, whereby the plain tiff was induced to become partner with Feaver, and lest all the capital which he brought into the concern. Then the plea is, that after the cause of action had ac crued, Crucknell and Feaver, the new partnership, ha I become indebted to the defendants, and to Nash, and to several other creditors ; and that a proposal had been made by Thomas Feaver to certain creditors at a meet ing that if the creditors of the plaintiff and Fearer would take I Is. 6d. in the pound on the amount of their respec tive debts, payable by four instalments, that Nash would become security for the payment of the last of such instalments. That proposal was made, and it was the opinion of the several creditors that the proposal should be accepted as soon as all the creditors of Cruck nell and Fearer acceded to that proposal, with a proviso that there should be time for the creditors to express their consent or not ; and also that in that agreement should be contained a release to the plaintiff from the claims of the said creditors of the said plaintiff and Fearer. Then it states that before all the creditors had come into this proposal—this Is the part of it that is ma terial—that before they had all agreed, William Nash, who was to be surety for the fourth instalment, objected. refused, and declined to become surety for the said instal ment, unless the plaintiff would forbear to take and never thereafter would take any proceedings whatever against the defendants 'William Hitchcock, Christopher Truman, and Richard Lewellin, or either of them for cr in respect of any cause of action, or any . right of proceeding what ever, which he then had against them or any of them, for, or in respect of any cause of action, or any. right of proceeding whatever, against them or any or either of them on any account whatever, and would abandon all such cause of action. Then it alleges that the plaintiff declared, represented, agreed, and promised to and with Nash, that if Nash would become security for the payment by Feaver of the last instalment to such of the creditors of Crucknell and Feaver as should be in duced to accept such composition of Ils. 6d. in the pound in satisfaction of their respective debts, he (the plaintiff) would forbear to take, and never would take, any proceedings whatever, or sue the said defendants and the said Richard Lewellin, or either of them, for, or in respect of, 'any cause of action, or any right of proceeding which he then had against them the said defendants, and the said Richard Lewellin ' or either of them, on any account whatever, and he declared that he abandoned, acquitted, and discharged, the defendants and Richard Lewellin and each of them therefrom. Then the plea goes on, whereof the defendants and Richard Lewellin, and Nash and the other creditors, had notice, and thereupon be fore the expiration of the time allowed, all the creditors of the plaintiff; and Feaver, except one Thomas Light foot, consented to accept the proposal and offer, the de fendant and Richard Lewellin confiding in the re presentation and promise of the plaintiff, and being in duced so to do by reason thereof. Then it further alleges that Lightfoot, one of such creditors, refused to come in unless he could get security for the three first instalments, and upon that, the defendant and Richard Lewellin agreed to become security to Lightfoot for the three first instalments, and it alleges that they did that with the consent and approbation of the other creditors of the plaintiff, and of the said Thomas Fearer ; and it alleges they did that confiding in the representations of the plaintiff, and being induced to do by reason thereof, they did this voluntarily. It then alleges that Nash se cured the last instalment to such of the creditors to the said plaintiff and Thomas Fearer, as were induced to accept such composition of I Is. 6d. in the pound in satisfaction of their respective debts, being creditors, parties hereto of the third and fourth parts, to the indenture hereinafter mentioned. It then alleges that for that purpose Feaver delivered the promissory notes, and that Nash indorsed he promissory notes for the fourth instalment. It then alleges that on the 14th of February, 1840, an indenture was made between Thomas Fearer of the first paq, the plaintiff of the second part, William Eyres the younger, Samuel Eyres, and Joseph Byres, of the third part, and the several other persons whose names and seals were thereunto subscribed and affixed, being the de fendants, and the said Richard Lewellin and divers cre ditors of the plaintiff and Feaver, of the fourth part, and the said Thomas Fearer and the plaintiff of the fifth part. Then, after reciting those matters, it contains a release by the creditors of the third and fourth parts, those who should have executed to Fearer and Cruclc nell, of the debts due from Fearer and Crucknell to them. The LORD CHIEF BARON—The plaintiff not being one of these. Mr. Baron ALDEnsoN—Yes. The Loan CHIEF BARON—The plaintiff was not one of tho f• signing it. Mr. ERLE—He was party to the deed as the late part ner of Feaver. Your Lordships see Crucknell had been induced to become a partner of Thomas Feavcr, that was the cause of action, and, as we allege, lost all his money, being induced to do so by the representation of the defendant. Then, after that partnership was constituted, after Feaver and Crucknell, the new partnership, had got into very large debts, then this composition arrangement was pro posed and come to on behalf of Feaver and Crucknell. You see that is the line of the composition ; Crucknell complains " I was induced to get into this losing part nership, and I have lost all my money . Then th e de fendant says--" After you and Feaver had be come partners, and after you had become very considerably indebted, a composition was proposed to be accepted by the creditors of this new firm of ,729 THE QUEEN DOWAGER. PORTIMOUTH 7 WEDNESDAY EVENING.-A few minutes after four o'clock this afternoon the Volcano steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander C. J. Featherstone, came into the harbour with the Royal Standard flying, having on board 1 et- Majesty the Queen Doviager, their Serene Highnesses the Duke and Duchess, and the hereditary Prince of Saxe Meiningen, the Earl of Denbigh, Earl Howe, and several other members of the Royal suite. As the steamer proceeded up the harbour, the yards of the St. Vincent and Victory were manned, and they each fired a Royal salute. The Port Admiral, Sir Edward Codrington, and the Admiral Superintendent, the Hon. D. P. Bouverie, and the Commander-in-Chief of the district, Major-General Sir Hercules Pakenham, immediate:y went on board the Volcano to pay their respects to her 3 `ajest , and toreeeive her commands. In the expectation that her Majesty would land, a gu , rit of honour was drawn up at the King's stairs, where a great number of persons had congregated to meet her Majesty upon 'anding. Her Majesty, however, instead of landing, prig.: eded on board the St. Vincent, accompanied by the Duke arid Duchess and the Prince of Saxe Meiningen, Earl Howe, and others of the Royal suite, and by Admiral: Sir E. Codringtou awl Bouverie, and by General Sir H. Pakenham. After going over and inspecting every part of this splendid ship, the Royal party next wenr. on board the Victory, the vessel in which the gallant Nelson fought his last action, and received his death wound. As her Majesty was a considerable tine on board these two ships, it was too late for her to land, and she therefore went on board the Volcano, in which she was conveyed to Ryde, where, at the Pier Hotel, dinner had been ordered for the Royal party, and where her Majesty remained for the night. SountaatetroN, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—Her Majesty the Queen Dowager arrived by railway at one o'clock today, and proceeded, attended by Lord Hone and her Suite, to the Royal Pier, for embarkation on board the Volcano. While her Majestylwas standing on the Pier, Captain Lewis, Commander of the Braganza Peninsula Company's steam-ship, resolved upon complimenting her Majesty with a Royal Salute fr,:•ru the Braganza. Her Majesty seemed Battered with the attention paid her, but her pleasure was sadly damped by a distressing accident that occurred to G. Hex, the gunner of the Braganza, who, at the second or third'gun, was in the act of ramming -home the cartridge, when, from the gun not being thoroughly spmged out previous to putting in the cartridge, the charge ignited, and shattered the poor fellow's right arm in a dreatiftal manner, the bone being splintered into more than twenty pieces, the jaw being shattered also, and several of the teeth broken. Her Majesty evinced the greatest possible affliction at the dis tressing event, and desired that the best snrgieal assistance should be instantly obtained, and that her Majesty should be made acquainted with the result. The patient was immedi ately conveyed to the residence of Mr. J. Wiblin, Boylestreet, who' happened fortunately to be present, and under his skilful attention the arm was set in such a position as to render it possible that the limb might he saved, but at seven o'clock this evening, when Captain Lewis visited hilt*, great apprehensions were entertained, we regret to say, t at in the course of the night the limb will require to be amputated. The poor fellow , has a wife and family. Her Majesty left the pier at two o'clock for Ryde. RVDE, THURSDAY AFTERNOON.—This morninz her Ma jesty, accompanied by the Duke and Duchess and the Print* of Saxe Meiningen, &e , embarked on board the Volcano, and proceeded for a trip to the back of the island, going oat by the eastern passage. It is thought she will go round the island, and return by the Needles passage. A public meeting of the inhabitants of Ryde was held tr-dav at the Town-hall, which was must numerously attended, end at which it was unanimously agreed to present a loyal address to her Majesty, which will be presented to her Majesty either this evening, upon her return from her trip, or to-morrow morning. It is understood that her Majesty will return to morrow. Several, residences are spoken of in the island as having been selected by her Majesty for her occupation, among others Vernon Castle has been named ; but at present this is mere conjecture, as nothing in this respect has yet been decided upon. Her Majesty, up to this hour (five o'clock), has not yet returned, but is momentarily expected. 'lt is understood that she would land for a short time at Veutnor. Her Ma jesty and the Duke and Duchess and the Prince of Saxe Meiningen have expres . :ed themselves much gratified at their visit to the St. Vincent and Victory. LA DIES' DRESSES.

MESSRS WIGNEY'S BANK RUPTCY. Butcarrotr, JUNE M.—Pursuant to adjournment from Yes terday, the Commissioners under this fiat (Messrs. Merritield, W. Attree, and C. Cooper), met this afternoon at. one o'cloc►, and delivered their decision as to the passing of Ilse bankrupts. Previnmsly to doing this, the bankrupts were desired, in the usual manner, to empty their pockets ; upon which Mr. J. N. Wigney stated that his pockets wore empty, and Mr.. Cement Wigney placed 3s. upon the table. The watches of the bank rupts and their wives Lad been preciously given up. Mr. MF.RRIFIELD (the senior Commissioner) then observed, that the usual course on such occasions as the present eas to return the watches to the bankrupts, unless that course were objected to by the creditors. Mr. Hallett (ono of the assignees) the/capon stet d, that the assignees saw noshing in the conduct of Mr. or Mrs. Cle ment Wigney to justify them in withholding their watches; and the creditors assenting, the watches and the 3s. were re turned to Mr. C. Wigney. With regard to the other bankrupt (Mr. I. N. Wigney), Mr. llallett stated that the assignees did Out recommend that h s watch be returned. One of the creditors, Mr. Ward Capps, coach-proprietor, expressed an objection to the return of the watches to Mr. I. Wigney, whereupon The CommissioNaes stated that they must be retained by the assignees for the benefit of the creditors. Mr. AiERRIFIELD then delivered an elaborate decision of the Commissioners, to the effect that in their opinion the bankrupts had complied with the Bankrupt Law to the utmost of their power, and the assignees not pressing for a postpone ment of the final examination, the Commissioners decided that they did not feel justified in refusing to allow them to pass. The bankrupts acconlingly passed their final examination. The assignees are understood to have instituted a suit iii equity against the executors of the late Mr. W. Wigney, father of the bankrupts, to recover the amount of the liabilities of the bank at the time of his death, and which his executors failed to discharge, paying the whole of his property to legatees, and leaving the bank debts to be liquidated by the money of subse quent depositors. Upon the success of this suit will depend whether the amount of the dividend will be about 10s. in the pound, or, as was expressed by Mr. James in the yesterday's examination, a mockery of a dividend.
