IMPORTANT TO OWNERS OF HORSES.- After long expeyience, deep researches into chymistry, by the aid of costly machinery, I have discovered the means whereby oats, beans, and oiicake may be entirely dispensed with in the feeding of horses and cattle. I have now invented a compound meal, composed of locust beans, Indian corn, linseed, &c., at £l6 per ton, which is equal in value to £24 worth of oats, beans, or any other feeding material in the market. Two quarts of this compound meal, weighing albs., at the cost of 5d.. mixed with a peck of chopped hay, is a teed for a draught horse, and superior in every respect to three quarterns of oats, costing 7d. 14 barrels weigh net 1 ton 1 cwt., at 16s. per cwt., £16165. net cash, free, delivered by my own wagzons to any station in London.

At Fort Pitt Hospital every bed in the establishment is oc cupied, and within the last few days it has been found necessary to erect some hospital marquees in the hospital grounds for those patients who cannot be accommodated in the several wards. Volunteering from the Indian depots at Chatham for those British regiments which are below their proper strength has proceeded very satisfactorily, the East India regiments at that garrison hav ing given several hundred volunteers for the various corps which require augmentation. Yes terday 279 volunteers were selected . from the three battalions at Chatham, for the depots at _ _ _ Chichester, Parkhurst, and Portsmouth, to which stations they are ordered to proceed on Monday next. Of this number of volunteers, 109 were given by the Ist depot battalion, 73 by the 2d battalion, and 97 by the-3d battalion. The bounty paid to each volunteer is one guinea. PAINFUL CHARGES AGAINST A CLB HGY MAN. On Thursday the Rev. Llewellyn Powell, a cler gyman of the Church of England, and who some time ago was curate of Childwall, under the Rev. Augus tus Campbell, rector of Liverpool (who is also vicar of Childwall), was placed before the stipendiary m ngistrate -at Liverpool, on the charge of having obtained two sovereigns from Mr. Barrett, pro prietor of the London Hotel, under false pretences, and also with having stolen two silver ladles from the hotel, which he afterwards offered to pawn. The London is a house much resorted to by the local clergy on the occasions of their clerical meet in.'s and dinners, and it appears that the prisoner had recently been staying there. The prisoner, who is a young man of about 30 years of age, trembled violently whilst in the dock. Mr. Barrett stated that he was the proprietor of the London Hotel, Clayton-square, Liverpool. On the 20th of last month the prisoner called at his house, and after stay ing two or three hours in the front room, he remarked, " This is a very nice room. I will give you a few hints concerning it." He then wrote down his hints and signed his name T. R. H. Heywood." Witness thanked the pri soner for his hints. The latter then left the house, and witness saw no more of him until Tuesday week, when he called again at the hotel. After re maining for some time, the prisoner said to witness, " You are not looking very well. Come down for a week to my house at West Derby." Witness then believed prisoner to be Mr. Heywood, the banker, who resides at West Derby. In the evening of that day the prisoner asked witness to lend him a sove reign, and he did so. He remained all night, and took a bed. The next morning he went out, but came again in the afternoon, and after some time sent a note to witness by a waiter. The note, which was produced, ran as follows : —" My dear Mr. Barrett,—l must ask you to be my banker. Kindly lend me the same amount until to morrow, as I have been done very considerably on the Newton, You will find me at my old place." Witness took the note to the prisoner, and asked him what he meant by it, when he replied that he had been at the Grecian Hotel, in Dale-street, thatd afternoon, and had lost £lO on the Neivtonfhaneyi. cap, that it was money he had drawnleoudt o e wood's bank, and that if he would would phi him, money until the following. day he wo he d y cold not but that the bank then being closed get any money. Witn ess then lent him the money, believing him to be a partner in the bank . Witness s lept at the hotel that night, and went away on , the following morning. silver ladles produced were witness's. Mr. Walter, an assistant in the employ of Mr. Parley, pawnbroker, stated that on 'I uesday last the prisoner brought the two silver ladles produced to pledge. Witness observed thatthtehyh, and on had the na me of " Barrett , the London," upon them, drawing the prisoner's attention to this, he said he obtained them from an hotel in London. The wit ness, however, knowing the London, asked the pri soner to take a seat, on which he left the shop - and ran away. The prisoner was committed for trial. There is a further charge against him of having stolen a gold watch and chain from the Lamb Hotel, Wavertree. These were found upon him. • To-day's telegram is brought to us with lightning,:speed by magnetic force.

O ,IRO 5§141.4., -• , 7HE LAW ~ 01 SETPLEMENT.. ; • The present generation of ;attorneys when they look' b ick through their fathers' bills .of costs must give wistful thoughts to the old Law of Settlement. There were times not so very long, ago when an old bedridden' pauper was worth £5OO to an active firm; when every removal was a certain lawsuit, and the Quarter Sessions town was crowded with witnesses from all parts of the kingdom. The plan in those days was to fight everything, and to esta blish such a reputation for litigiousness that no parish would lightly take the step of removing a pauper to the territory of such a fierce neighbour. Sessions were something then. They were not only nurseries to the bar but ladders to the Solicitor- Generalship. More of the poor rates were spent in law than in bread. Settlement Law was a labyrinth of the most inextricable entanglements, but it was worth treading, for he who kneW it well passed through to fortune. Settlement Law had its leading cases, and it had its memoria technica, like Coke's Reports. Alas ! this is nearly all passed away. There are few men of the present genera tion who know of Bott, or Const, or Caldecott. There are even many leaders of Sessions to whom that great decision which combined in itself the poetry of the Settlement Law is all unknown. We may be pardoned, perhaps, if we recall it before it passes away for ever woman having settlement " Married a man with none. " The questi"n was—he being dead— " Itthat she had vas gone. " Qaoth:Sir.John Pratt, her settlement ." Suspended did:remain • " the husbandL-bnt, him dead, " tlt doth revive again. " Chorus of Puisne Judges— . " ' Living the husband—but; him dead, ~•••••• "' It doth revive again. " In those . days all poor were removable , and the d , of , magistrates at Quarter Sessions was to ran sack all the life Of some miserable old man until tht'y could fix his-birth. in some far away county, or, di2Eorer some hiring and service in some palish where the ratepayers were not cautious to allow no such expensive contracts.' This was the old system Upon which lawyers flourished and paupers pined, 'and peor.rates increased Until they threatened to swallow up rents. . Sir Robert Peel broke in upon this golden age by ruthlessly sweeping aw , y half the " learning" of that fine-spun 'law.. 'With an audacity which startled the lawyers and even the country gentlemen ,ofthe day he_proposed that a pauper—the most re movable arid ingt:perpreilaily moving animal in the kingdom— should be " irremovable" after a five years' residence in any parish. Henceforward paupers were of two classes—the old inhabitants, who had became irremovable by having struck a five years old taproot into the parish, and the recent corners, who had g . z.;ncil. no such right, and might be carried off to their places of settlement. This and some other provisions have done a great deal to beak up the old sessions business, and settlement cases are not much heard of now. Sir G. C. Lewis yesterday was so adventurous in his heresy as to wish that the Law of Settlement were entirely gone. There is no limit to the revolutionary principles one hears from the Treasury benches nowadays. Of course, Mr. Cayley sees confiscation in the idea. Mr. Henley was bold to prophesy that some daring innovator might hereafter be found to demand that there should be no removal at all, and that every man should have a claim to relief in the union where he had broken down at his work. Of course, no one, we hopee would think of going to such dreadful lengths as this ! Mr. Villiers, when he yesterday ventured to press a mild bill upon the subject, certainly had no such audacity. He only proposed that three years' residence, instead of five, should give a poor man the privilege of being irre movable, and that for the purpose of maintaining these irremovable poor the union should be the parish. He suggested only that when parishes have been thrown together for the purpose of management they ought to remain together for the purposes of settlements and ratings. Mr. Villiers and :those members who supported him in the debate thought that the fact of a dis trict having been marked out and constituted a union because its area was thought a con venient area for management, was proof in itself that it was a convenient area for rating. The very fact of these Union divisions having been established manifested a general consent that they are more convenient than the fortuitous and unequal divisions into parishes, which have no other recommendation than that they are as old as Alfred. Even, however, the recommendation of remote antiquity does not apply ; for Poor-rates themselves are only referable to the time when the Dissolution of the Monasteries and the doctrines of the Reformation produced at once the recognition , of the duty and the political necessity of a State provision for the helpless poor. There is nothing respectable or venerable in the old parochial system in its application to Poor-rates. IThe ecclesiastical point of view is of an entirely dis tinct character. Parish poor-houses and parish poor-rates have no association, except the tradition of those fine old days when parishes kept up a war of pauperS. We urge upon Parliament this bill on the grounds of good local government and common sense, as a piece of obviously proper legislation. But we also urge it upon the ground of humanity. Gentlemen may talk as they please about the venerable charac ter of the parochial system, but the only possible practical objection to the alteration now proposed is that it seems to tend in some way to abridge the opportunities for those shifts and contrivances whereby from time immemorial small districts have endeavoured to enjoy all the services of an able bodied labourer, and to cast his maintenance when in decrepitude upon some other district. This is obviously not only contrary to general policy and general morality—so much, indeed, that criminal their away it tendedwork ; to crowd is thit this which the policy of employers of labour to make their labourers them to has the inhabitants of some other district, so that when the Union consists of a little town and some surrounding rural parishe s the maintenance of the irremovable poor is This system of tactics on the part of the rural th parishes is m e t on part of the town proprietors by evictions, removals, e pulling down of cottages, and other devi ces for he extermination of popula tion. The war is as o ld as poor rates themselves, and it has as many charms to some gen tlemen, and to som e b u ild ers of first-class country houses, as the old border warfare had t o th ose who thought themselves ill-used by another Union. The majo rity yesterday of 187 to 44 in favour of the bill leads us to hope that the House of Commons is not prepared to step backwards towards the old evils of the parochial system. There are, as Sir G. C. Lewis said, " halting-places between a paro chial and a national rate which we may prudently occupy," but these halting places are not yet reached, and certainly the very moderate ad vance which this measure proposes does not bring us even to a high road leading to a national rate. linzes. We learn by a letter from Havre that the con struction of a harbour of refuge between Calais and Bou logne has been decided on, and that plans of the work are to be begun early nezt month, IIIE CIVIL WAR IN AiII.E.RICA edi T to h r e o f f o t l h lo e w v ic a g ily le_t l t , e e r ic h s a : s — been addressed to the NEW YORK, Jane 25. Sir,—l notice, as we all do with the deepest in terest, the comments of the English press on the present condition of our unhappy affairs. We thank the News for the fair and manly treatment of the subject, and also wonder at the sophisms by which the rebellion is made to appear in some of Your journals as the exercise of a natural right, a politi cal right, and a political necessity. It is no such moment. thing. We have no natural right to commit violence upon Fanother, except in the case of self-defence, and no assault whatever has been made by the Go vernment on the Southern States in any form or manner of an aggressive character hitherto, or now, except to repel assault and suppress insurrection. The South has, in fact, not a single act to com plain of. Their hated institutions have been held up by . the untiring and open support of the North, in conformity with the constitution, and slavery would long ago have disappeared except it had been from the moral influence of the pro visions of that instrument which recognised the institution. The South has had most of the Pre sidents, most of the power, and a majority of the most distinguished plaeeS under the various administrations of the country. However it may have winced at the rapid growth of the North; it was a result that is not attributable to any oiher than natural causes, and upon which no partial or general legislation has been or could be brought to bear. Nor have the Southern States had any political right to secede. There was no provision for such an act made in the constitution. On the contrary, every power necessary to make secession possible was taken away by that compact. No .State could enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation, grant letters of marque and reprisal, emit bills of credit &e., enter into any agreement or compact with another State, or with a foreign power, or engage in war unleSs actually invaded. Secession as a poli tical right was - thus cut off by the constitution. The very first steps by which practical secession, was promoted were compacts, treaties, alliances war, letters of marque and reprisal—the very things prohibited by the constitution. Whatever rights were reserved to the states in the amend ments to the constitution could not have been those which were expressly withheld from them. But if there be any such right, there was and is no political necessity for asserting it. Whatever political wrong might theoretically or practically have been done the South, it was by their own con 'sent, for it has always had a majority in the govern ing powers. It has this day a constitutional majo rity in the present congress, and could pass any needful laws, as well to remedy their grievances, if they have any, as to control the measures and policy of President Lincoln himself. They could have wholly overthrown the Morrill tariff, and kept out of the state offices every enemy of their own. Ample opportunities of amending the constitution to suit the territorial questions were at hand, and their allies in the North would have yielded them the benefit of their abstractions, for in the new ter ritories the possession of slaves is not a possibility through soil and climatic influences. Plains with out rain and without vegetation would have tempted no planter from his cotton fields. The whole claim was a farce, and as a farce it would have ended. But in England it is asked what benefit will or can arise from the subjugation of the Southern States. Subjugation is not our object. We are only seolzi.±2.. tieing the words of a former Presi dent, Mr. Van Buren, «;`o restore the lest rights of the States." The certain result of the war in this respect may be seen in the condition of Maryland at this moment. That slave state but a few weeks ago was in a state of insurrection, the national autho rity was overthrown by overt acts of legislature and people, and blood was shed in the streets of Balti more by a lawless mob. By the energetic action of the general Government order has been restored, the State Government has refused to secede, though its demagogues sought to have it do so, and the con gressional elections have just terminated after a peaceful contest, by a return of representatives pledged to the union and the constitution. This is all the subjugation Maryland has undergone or any other State can undergo. It is in the same way that Missouri is subjugated and no other. It is idle, therefore, to use the word in any such sense as it has been used in the South or in England. But let us see, even if we did use the term in its very hardest sense, if we could not make out ajus tification. Have we not as good a right to over throw the establishment of a dangerous rival re public on our own soil as England had to subjugate Ireland and annex Scotland ? Would it suit your Government to allow those countries at this day, under any pretext of natural rights or political wrongs, to set up kingdoms or sovereignties for themselves? No more could we. Look at our geo graphical and physical structure. A great barrier of rivers and lakes on the north, the Atlantic on the cast, the Gulf of Mexico or, the south, give us a na tural and marked boundary by which we are com pressed into unity and solidity. Our southern bays head northward, and get their value from northern occupation at their frontiers. Our mountains run northwardly and southwardly, the backbones of the whole, and not like ribs, cquatorially, with im passible elevations, as those of Europe, or those which separate your island extremes, like the Grampians. Our extremes of climate melt away as they meet in the middle states, and a splendid average of natural advantages makes us truly one. Even cotton may be raised in Southern Illinois, and our northern wheat flourishes in Virginia. We are therefore entitled to maintain our homogeneity by force of arms, just as God has given it to us, and just as you would do. But more than tr is, the vast majority of the po pulation who inhabit the northern and middle states could not permit the existence of a hostile or even independent confederacy within the limits I have sketched. It would be a perpetual source of war, and forei gn i n t e rf e rence. uneas i n ess, discord, Should a Southern confederacy establish a mo narchy, as Mr. Russell says they would, our own Republic would be endangered, and possibly some European power would sooner or later as enemy and invader attempt our destruction. It is needless to pursue this argument. We cannot per mit any other nation than our own, and one especially whose basis, slavery, is hostile to the very principle of liberty , to rise up with opposing inter ests to endanger all our interests, our perpetuity, and our progress. Europe is continually at war to maintain the integrity of boundaries, the perma nence of institutions, and the preservation of na national unities : why, in the name of heaven, have not we a right to act in the same manner? If war is so tragic and so hateful on this side the Atlantic, why do you not recognise it to be such on yours? You have subjugated India, a far distant country, to preserve the integrity of the British empire : may we not be allowed a similar privilege ? Nor are these feuds of ours to be eternal. What ever ill feeling may now be engendered will pass away with the coming if not the present generation. What have become of the wars of the red and white roses ? Where are your Jacobites ? Their memory survives only to point a moral and adorn a tale, not living to endanger your relations with Scot land, but to fill your libraries with the most beau tiful of your romances, and soften your hearts with the tenderest of ballads. So with us. Our material interests will soon close up our present wounds, and, like reconciled combatants, we shall become better friends, When wild war's deadly blast is blown, And gentle peace returning. Let England, then, keep her hands off, and let your ministry imitate the policy and principles of the great Canning, who, while Spain was endea vouring to resume her authority over the revolted South American States, refused to acknowlege them until. the mother country had time to make the attempt to retain them., This was his language to Mr. Brougham in debate, and this was the very point of his communications to the French Govern- ment, when he protested against any direct inter ference of any third Power in the matter. If the Union cannot be maintained, after a fair trial, we shall find it out first and will let you know. This is the actual condition of public affairs at this The seat of the Confederate Government has been removed to Richmond, and so is the seat of war. The two capitals are become the outposts of the two armies. General Scott has thrown up miles of en- trenchments on the heights around Washington, and with an army in the field of more than 100,000 men, of which 6,000 are regulars, well commanded, and 100,000 more within four days of Washington, has this position—one wing is at Fort Monroe and Annapolis, with strong forts and many armed steamers great and small. This menaces Richmond from the sea, and by railways leading thither. A reserve at Baltimore, with Fort Mlienry to hold that place, is ready to op'rate with that wing, or with the main body at Washington, or the heavy columns from Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Western Virginia, approaching . Harper's Ferry in front, on the flank, and in the rear. Opposite Waglington, around and beyondlis entrenched camp, is the main body, ihreateningthe enemy, who is strong at Ma nassas Junction. Skirmishes of outposts, as at Fair fax and Bethel, are taking place, as whirls of dust precede the thunderstorm. While in this position, Gen. Scott has beenclosing,his western and northern columns around Harper's Ferry with such a crushin g force as to render its capture or evacuation:inevitable, and the news today' is, that thnalter 'alterna tive has been accepted. The retreat of the rebels opens the Baltimore "and Ohio Railway, and lets in the Western troops to hundieds of thousands more. One great battle is likely to be fought, but if brought on immediately it will be from the despe ration of the Confederates, who are totally unable from, want of mean's to long! keep the field. Our Fabius Cunctator understands this. Our Etrength is increasing every hour, but that of our enemy is decreaSing by desertion, want of food, want of money, and want of unanimity amongst themselves. A t Cairo we have a force large enough to command the Mississippi river, and gunboats are preparing to descend with it to Memphis. At New Orleans, which is blockaded, our smaller vessels are thread ing the takes and bayous, and'the people there have fears of an immediate descent upon them. At Fort Pickens the enemy remains inactive, while our security is greater by increased works and garrison. Key West has become a Union port, and the people are raising a small body of men to join the Govern ment forces. Yuu have thus a bird's-eye view of the whole. In Missouri the Governor is endeavouring to ex cite the secessionists to act ; but a division under General Lyons, who recently, posnaed upon a body of 2,000 secessionists and captured them, is march: ing a brigade to jefferion, the soat of government, and will probably take the governor and his asso ciates prisoners.' That' State, h6wever, is another example of 'what " subjagation" is to be—a com plete restoration of the • national authority, and a regular and orderly obedience to state A laws . under its wing, one of its greatest, best, and most useful interpositions. In Western Virginia a convention has been held, where more than forty counties are represented by duly elected , delegates. A Provi sional Government is to be established, declaring the existing State Government is noAxitirt. The reins of power will be assumed, and public affairs conducted precisely as if Virginia was still in the Union. This is the return stroke of the secession lightning, and it cannot be resisted. Meantime the North is full of unhappy fugitives from the South, flying for their lives, with the loss of property and health, with borrow before them destruction behind. The negroes are running to our camps and forts whenever they find an opportunity, and give valu able assistance, fur which they are paid. I will tell you something which will astound you. If you want any cotton this year, you must at once tell the Southern leaders to lay down their arms. The slaves have made up their minds to burn up every bale of cotton produced this year. They will not murder their masters or their unprotected families, but the cotton crop is doomed. Immediate sub mission to the government can alone prevent this catastrophe, and if you encourage the rebels, let Manchester shut up shop. The late discovery of the art of cottonising and spinning flax is making a great noise here. We have found a material that is far superior to cotton in many respects. Our prairies are covered with it. It has been sown in many Western States, and the knowledge of the new process is everywhere being disseminated. The seed and the fibre will pay better than any other crop, and we think a re volution in this branch of agriculture, manufac tures, and trade is at hand. I have some samples which are demonstration, and which I propose to send you. The subject has already been taken up by the Academy of Sciences in Paris, and the Bri tish consul in this city has written home fully on this subject. I close this despatch with a summary of the news down to ten o'clock, the latest moment left me. Be yond all question Harper's Ferry is evacuated, and the rebels are attempting to join their main body. The United States troops will press the fugitives and endeavour to cut them off. General Scott says this is his last campaign, but it shall be his best. In Missouri the flight of the governor is announced with our forces on his heels. The letter of Jefferson Davis to the Maryland legislature, in which he expresses a desire for peace, is genuine. A friend of mine, who is inti mately connected with him, and is so by marriage, says he has no stomach for the fight, though the bravest of men. He went reluctantly into seces sion and with a heavy heart. It was such men as Toombs of Georgia a ho did the mischief—such men as Wise. Civilians have made this war, and noble and brave men have to fight it. You have seen such things in England. Money is abundant. The Pennsylvania loan of three millions has been taken at par. Two hundred millions of dollars could be had by the Government f it wanted it. AMERICUS.

The officers and many of the leading members of the National Rifle Volunteers gave a banquet at the Westminster Palace Hotel, Victoria-street, West minster, on Thursday evening, after the regiment had been keeping the ground for the inspection of the Middlesex Engineers by Colonel M`Murdo, the affair being improvised by the officers of the former corps, in order to express to their Lieut.-Colonel, Sir John Villiers' Shelley, Bart., M.P., their sym pathy .with him under' 'the misfortune he had suffered in being. recently subjected to certain calutrinieg,land to declare their confidence in hie honour and integrity. Major Walmisley presided, and amongst those present were Major Emsley, Dr. Heise, Captains Nichols, Lynn, Salmon, Hardy, Isaacs, Routledge, and Bohn ; Lieutenants Jones, e Savage, Syms, 'Brocklebank, Baker, Smith, and Burn ; Ensign Ware, &c. Ample justice having been done to the viands, The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the usual loyal toasts, took occasion to remark upon the gracious manner in which her gracious Majesty and Prince hacl andsalutespecially dtheeerps in Hyde-park that afternoon, e e its Lieut.-Colonel, 'their honoured, guest on that evening. The preliminary t oasts having been disposed of, The CHAIRMAN rose and said he had a very diffi cult task to perform in bringi ng before them the e xceedingly delicate matter whi c had led to their assembling on that evening. The entertainment had been got up without previous arrangement, as it was felt that no time should be lost in sympa thising with Sir John Shelley upon the distressing transaction which within the past few days had dragged his name before the public. (Cheers.) No expressions of his were .necessary to convince Sir John Shelley or his friends of their views, or those of the public at large, with regaid to the heinous and incredible offence which had been attri buted to him. They wished to take the earliest opportunity of expressing their . con &knee-ie. his honour and integrity, and .their contempt, indignation, and disgust at the cheep Whic - 'a - bad - been made agait s ltn—(cheers)—butres , at the.satee time he . felt.theiter John Shelley was too well known for them eetees'ay anything in ex pressing their unanimous syti3eitaby with him. He had heard . that Sir John's constituents in West minster were taking steps to give a similar etpres sisen oftsympe.thfeeith him, but it wasSelethet the corps should be in-the vanguard of the people of .Weatbainiter; 'He concluded, after passing a r high etelogium on Sirlulan ",lielley, by proposing his health; which weseireek . with greatenthusiasm. eSir-JouN VeSsfeletY, in rising to respond was Very'kindly cheered. He said—Although I ,have been engaged in . public life fortnore than a quarter 'cif a . century, I never - tad :.reason to address an audience with a greater sense of the difficulty of expressing my feelings than on the present occa sion.. (Loud.appliuse.). I have received this as it were public mark of sympathy from the corps with The• greateat-satisfaction. , 1 have also received letters from a variety of persons entirely unknown to me from different parts of the metropolis and.the country, and,:whae i is most gratifying to me, 'from many ofemy own constituents. (Cheers.) The kindest feeling has boon shown to me in Westmin ster, and:that - would not have bedn so` but for the number of years I'hase endeavoured, tothe best of my ability, to do my duty ;- and ts all my consti tuents have always the opportunity- of seeing me whenever they wish, they have come to know what sort of man I am. (Applause.) Usually when Man is accused of an offence :he - has some prelimi nary opportunity.. of . preparing for• his defence— there is a summons, or something of that sort, but in this case it is right to tell you that when I came bactz from Haiesfietcl at 12 o'clock ,on that day I •keew nothing Of 'the course of proceeding or even that erfes proceedings had been taken against me. At five mintites'past 12, I was told that an officer from Marlborough-street wanted to see me, and as I am always visible to Whoever calls, I told him ece be e shown in. Ha was in private clothes, and seid to me, " I am sorry to say that you are my prisoner." I asked him what was the matter, and he replied, " Tee whole proceeding is so out pageone le would rather not say a word,:but ask you to read the warrant." I read the warrant, which only stated the case generally, lat once tent for Mr. Dialseemy solicitor, who advised an adjaairnment ;• but I said if I could not getootinsel, in .time, I would rather defend myself as an Eng lishman than ask for a delay. .(Cheers.) Sir'John Shelley tHënréferrcd to the letter which he-had re ceived froit Mr. Train, which came as he about to oppose the tramway, and he only took the insult, he said, to refer to that opposition. He said he had to let the case go'"dn the first-day without any op portunity of cross-sxaminifilalre ititegiMittietThe pipers went down into the country without stating that any defence had been made. On the seeand day he was ably defended by Mr. Garth. He did not know who his enemies were, but he should like to meet them face to face on the hustings at Covent-garden, where they would receive an ex pression of the electors of - Westminster upon .*heir conduct towards him, but he did not wish the worst enemies he ever had in this world should ever know what it was to go through the suffering which he had endured when this accusation was hanging over his head. Sir John's observations were received with great applause, and the proceedings were prolonged till a late hour. THE NEW LAW APPOINTMENTS We are happy to state that arrangements have been made by which the Government will obtain the services of Mr. Roundell Palmer as Attorney- General. It is understood that Sir William Ather ton will accept a judgeship which is likely to be shortly vacant, and that the office of Solicitor-Ge neral will be conferred on one of the Comm& law yers in the house. We believe that Mr. Palmer will be a candidate for Wilton, for the representa tion of which Mr. Antrobus retires. There is every reason for congratulating the public on tnese ne appointments, In Lord Westbury we have a Chan caller who is not only a most eminent lawyer, but who possesses also the mind of a jurist, and has long been intent on endowing the country with a, more compendious, logical, and symmetrical juris prudence. Those who know how much the law of England, though for the most part founded on just and liberal principles, fails in the qualities of order and simplicity, how much of delay and uncertainty and expense to the suitor, how much of anxiety and weariness to the practitioner, arise from the nature of this learned chaos, and who are also aware how opportune the present time is for the great work of consolidation and arrangement, if riot of codification, will be glad to find that the legal profession is to be presided over by a man I who at least is not wedded to abuses nor afraid of confronting difficulties. But an able Chancellor in the House of Lords cannot do all that a Government requires. The House of Commons contains many lawyers who are fond of criticising measures of Law Reform. Although we cannot say that they are more capricious or fasten on a bill with a greater desire to tear it to pieces than the Law Lords, yet, with a weak Attorney and Solicitor s General in the Hotbe, the fate of the brovernrnen t, a best considered measures would be a most unhappy one. Ai the present time there is no egtuyi of eminence on the Liberal s ide of ith e House of andthe bar Commons. The Conservative tendencies not been changed by the temptai have been very conspicuous of l a te t y a e n a s r 4bich ha tb ve e hold out to a long tenure of office by the d Liberals d Palmer is one of therising t.lv a d w v b o o c s a e t e o . p i n lk i l o r n . s_R agreeo u n d ,w -ith those of the pre when in Parliament sent Ministry.

MADELEINE SMITH.—The Plymouth Tournal states that this young lady, who, it will be remembered, was tried at Edinburgh a few years ago for poisoning her sweetheart, a young Frenchman, the verdict returned being " Not proven," has recently " turned up" in the neighbour hood of Plymouth. It was reported immediately after the trial that she was sent to Australia. Our contemporary says she has captivated many hearts in the neighbourhood of Plymouth, and has finally been, or is about to be, married. lADVERTISEMENTI—HoIIOway's Pills.—Self-Preserva tion. —How many thousands irrevocably lose their health through neglect of early derangements and carelessness of the first symptoms of disordered action?
