A decline of about it per cent. has taken place in he English Funds to-day, and there has been very little animation. The market is no doubt affected by sales to realise profits. as the position of mone tary affairs are very favourable. Consols are 89 ,1 I for transfer, and 89; for the account. The New Tereee and Reduced are 871 1 ; Exchequer Bills, 153. to 23. dis.; and India 5 per Cents., 105± 106.

Capture of the Florida, The Index, the London Confederate organ, gives ,he following official account of the capture of the Florida : The Confederate authorities in London have re. ceived a telegraphic despatch, dated Lisbon, from Captain Morris, commander of the Confederate steamship Florida, announcing the capture of that vessel on Cratober 7 by the Federal steamer Wuchusetts in the harbour of Bahia. At the time of capture the Florida was lying under the guns of the Brazilian forts and of the Brazilian fleet, and Captain Morris was on shcre, Captain Mcrris is now on board the Magdalena, bound fur Southampton. Miss Coutts in Spitalfie!ds. If we go from the house to the little homes of the poor whom it comforts, we may the more clearly see the worth of its work. Here are some cases from the experience of one of the district clergy; A man, 85 years old, has been married for more than half a century to the wife who, now ;,that the grown-up children have left the nest, is his only companion. They want food and even clothing ; they have sold their bed to pay their rent, and they owe rent. Brown's-lane knows that they have done their share of labour in this world, an 1 are entitled now to sympathy and solace, and Brown's-lane gave them all last winter what was necessary to their health and comfort. Old people in seasons of dis• tress are thus saved from the workhouse, the scraps of furniture, of which the oldest may have in their little household the most sacred memories—the sempier worked by the gill who is their child daughter in heaven, the little chair in which she sat, the patchwork quilt that granny made when she was young, and grandfather was courting her —these things are saved to them, and their own lives also are sustained. The mortality among the aged in the one parish, of which records are before us, was last winter lessened so considerably that only two of the number died, A whole family was fever.. stricken; the father and two children were taken to the workhouse, the mother and two children were left in the poor and dirty home, From Number Seven, Brown's-lane, meat, and wine, and whitewash came; the father returned convalescent, Meat and wine were still supplied ; every life was saved, and the family is now well and earning without help its own scanty living, A poor weaver, with a wife and five children, failed in eyesight ; meat and wine gave him his sight again, and to the help given while he was unable to work was added the find ing for him of work more suited to his physical condition. He has now begun the world afresh, and prospers. Here again, says the record, sus tained help is brought to an aged couple, whose united earnings are 5s a week. The old man has been run over, and is deaf. Here again help is given to a widowed grandmother, who lives with a wi dowed daughter, both trying in vain to get bread, shelter, and clot Ling, as washerwomen, Hero it is help to a poor old widow, who is dependent on a sickly son. And here again the help is to a wife with a bad husband, who has left her and her family to starve, or to a wife and children where the bread.winner is lately dead, or lamed by an acci. dent. A man who could find no work was set to the repair of bedsteads, and other necessary articles:that he found broken and useless, and in this way were restored comfort and tidiness to the homes of twenty families, at a total cost of £2 12s. 7d. for labour and material. If we leave the tent of the four shepherds, and, still on the Delectable Mountain, travel homeward by way of Columbia square, built by Miss Coutts to provide cheap, wholesome, and comfortable homes for 200 families, we may glance also at tho market which the same lady is causing to rise by its side, for bringing into the district—with which she has no tie but that of human sympathy—plenty of good food at the fairest market prices. We might turn aside, also, to look at the Ragged School that stands near by to feed the starved minds of the children. But it is more than an afternoon's work to see all that a wise head and munificent hand, prompted by a warm and sympathising heart, has been for months and years maturing for the wretchedest end of London.—Dickens's " All the Year Bound." HER MAJESTY'S STAOHOUNDS.—The Royal pack commenced the hunting season yesterday, with the meet, as usual, at Salt-hill. It was a splendid hunting morning, and the muster included the officers in garrison at Windsor, most of the sporting gentlemen of the neigh bourhood, and many from town, the field numbering be tween 200 and 300. The deer was nncarted in a newly ploughed field on Mr Henry Cantrill's farm, at Baylis, and went away towards Stoke-park, skirting by the palings, in the direction of Farnham, through Mr Darby's park, to Stoke-common ; away to Gerard's-cross, thence to Chalfont and West Hyde, and was taken between Rickmansworth and Harefield, in the open, after a sharp run of two hours. Bc•th horses and hounds of the Royal Hunt were in prime condition, and Mr Davie, the veteran huntEman, looked as juvenile as ever, This bankrupt was described as of Waterloo-place, Pall mall, and St. James's-fquare, wine merchant.

GLAss.—This was an action to recover £lO damages for an illegal infringement of the carte de visite of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge. Mr Bowen May appeared for the plaintiffs, the eminent photographers; Mr. L. H. Lewis representing defendant, an artist, of Cheapside. Mr May, in opening the case on behalf of plaintiffs, said he appeared as the advocate of the Photographic Associa tion, but plaintiffs, although they belonged to it, were fight . ing the present case taing:y, and to protect themselves against piracies. There could be no doubt that plaintiff. had suffered to the extent of £lOO, but they only went in this instance for £lO, so that for the future it might be understood these piracies might not be carried out with impunity, Mr Maull said—This is the carte de visite of [his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, who sat to my firm for it. It was taken August 11, 1862, and it was duly registered. We are the owners of the negative and copyright. This is the piracy copy no doubt taken from our original. His royal highness gavo us permission to publish the carte de visite, and I have no doubt this was copied from it. There are accessories in this picture whch would not be in the possession of any one else. By his Honour—l mean the carpet, table, &o. By Mr May—First knew defendant was selling them in September. Cross-examined—The Duke sat on August 11. He sat at my request. W e considered it. a great benefit. The Duke did not pay for his sitting, but he paid for the copies. He paid 41 4s for 100 copies. I have not authorised the Pho tographic Association to mention my name. I left the mat ter in Mr May's hands. Ido not recollect that defendant wrote a letter disclaiming all knowledge of the sale. Re-examined—His royal highness paid no fee. We simply request a sitting for the purpose of publication. Mr Fox (plaintiff's manager) proved purchasing the copies produced at defendant's shop. There is no doubt of the piracy. lam an operator. We sold 8,000 to 9,000 portraits of Garibaldi in ten days, Cross-examined—Plaintiff has published another portrait of the Duke of Cambridge in his military dress. I shoule think 3,000 of the military portrait were sold. I believe the Duke sat to another photographer come years ago. . - His Honour—Do you object that they are not authors ? Mr Lewis—That is one of the objections. Mr Maull (recalled by Mr Lewis) —We took ten nega. tives. Two negatives were taken representing his roya highn.,.a in the eatno pnaitinn. Mr Nottage, manager of the City Stereoscopic Company ; in Cheapside, said this copy is evidently - a copy of the plain- Mr May—l believe that you have lately taken a carte Lord Palmerston ? His Honour—Oh, we have nothing to do with Lord Palmerstcn. Mr Lewis called his Honours attention to the act, and his Honour said there seemed to be a difficulty in the act. Mr. Lewis contended that there was no case, and quoted the Ist section of the act, by which it would be seen that before plaintiff could have any authority to claims on copyright he must have the permission of the Duke of Cam bridge in writing. Now, plaintiffs had only a verbal per. mission, and could not claim to be the proprietors. Mr May contended that the negative never belonged to the Duke of Cambridge, who had merely bought copies as an ordinary purchaser. Mr Lewis— Then it came to this, that any person's photo- graph might be produced whether he liked or not. His Honour--That would bo so. The Act is very indis tinct. I must take a note of objections. The fact is, there was no agreement in writing. The payment afterwards by his royal highness made a good consideration. The sitting of the Duke was also a good consideration. Mr Lewis—Then there was no registration in accordance with the terms of the act, The time of the first publication is not registered as required. His Honour—This is not driving a coach and six through an act of Parliament, but several railway vans. I think secs. 6 and 11 are incorporated. Mr Lewis—l contend that the author of a photograph is the person who sits. His Honour—Unless it be the sun: The object of regis tration is to give notice to whom the property belongs. Mr. May argued upon the objections. His Honour—l think the objection upon the registration and there being two negatives is fatal. Mr Lewis then addressed the jury as to the damages, in the event of a verdict being passed for plaintiff. The jury found for the 1110 claimed, and his Honour reserved his judgment.

I remember well having my curiosity excited by this, to me, noTel form of taking medicine, and holding on by the back of a chair to watch the modus ope• randi. Very much to my astonishment Lady Clermont held a liqueur bottle over a cup of tea, and began to pour out its contents, with a peculiar purblind look upon the back of a teaspoon. Presently she seemed suddenly to be • come aware of what she was about, turned up the spoon the right way, and carefully measured and added the quantity to which she had been rcsttictsd. The tea so strongly "laced" she then drank with great apparent gusto.—The Iron, Grant/ay Berkeley's Life and Recollections. A REBUKE.—Host.—" Fish is very expensive just now, I can tell you.

Mr Tyrwhitt—You are the most incorrigible old woman in all London, and you spend three parts of your time in prison. You must pay ss. or be committed for 14 days. OußAGnous CONDUCT —John Mulcahy, a rough look ing fellow, was charged before Mr Tyrwhitt with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting the wife of Mr Tapps, of the Bay Mallon Tavern, Great Portland-street, and ho was also charged with wilfully breaking a looking glass and foul glasses, the property of Mr Tapp. Edward Prior, barman to Mr Tapp, said that about half past four yesterday afternoon the prisoner came in and called for some ale, with which he was served. The priso ner then got into conversation with some persons in the house, and after paying for the ale, called for some beer, which he did not pay for. About half an hour afterwards he told the prisoner he had not paid for the beer, and that ho had better pay on delivery. The prisoner then became very abusive, making use of the most abusive language He then told the prisoner that he had better leave the house, when he went to a table and took up a pint pot. Thinking the prisoner was going to do some mischief with it, he took it from him. The prisoner then took up another measure, and flung it with great force at him, but fortunately las avoided it, as also did Mrs Tapp, who was standing close by, the measure passing not more than an inch from their heads, and smashing a looking-glass and four glasses, a piece of the looking-glass falling on Mrs Tapp's head and cutting it. He then jumped over the counter and secured the prisoner, and prevented him committing any further violence, and sent for the police and gave him into custody. Mr Tapp having proved the amount of damage, Mrs Tapp said she heard the prisoner making use of the most disgusting and abusive language. The prisoner was allowed half an hour before being asked to pay for the beer, and was asked civilly for the money. She was standing close to the barman when the prisoner threw the measure, which nearly struck her, and a piece of the looking-glass fell on her head and cut it, making it blood and leaving a scar. The prisoner said he was drunk, and did not remember anything about it. Seymour, 76 E, said, on going to the house he found the barman and the prisoner struggling together. The prisoner was drunk. Mr Tyrwhitt fined the prisoner 10s, or 14 days, for the assault, and ordered him to pay the amount of damage, 15s, and a fine of 58, or to be committed fur 14 days, WESTMINSTER. ROBBING A MASTER.--Emma Elizabeth Moore and Margaret Dyson, two very ladylike women, wero charged with stealing various articles, the property of Mrs Edith Eliza Pym, an independent lady, residing at 11, Claverton street, Pimlico. Mr Horatio Pyre, a gentleman, son of Mrs Pym, said that his mother, for a considerable time past, had been robbed. From information received he went on Tuesday to London-street, Ratcliff, and there found Mrs Dyson, who is a married woman only 17 years of age, and gave her at once into custody. Her lodgings wero searched, and some knives and forks, cups and saucers, gloves, and other articles were found, which witness identified as the property of the family. There was also a linen cover which had belonged to a deceased member of the family. Ha went back to Claverton street and gave Moore into custody. The prisoners were sisters, and Moore was cook to his mother. Dyson's husband was at sea running the blockade, and he did not wish her to be severely punished. the things were valued at 10s. Mrs Jane Pacy, Dyson's landlady, No. 1, London-street, Ratcliff, sail that Dyson lasd lodged with her five months, and had b.en married four months. Her husband was at sea. Her sister frequently brought things to her, and she went every other Saturday to Claverton-street, slept there, and returned on the Monday, bringing various articles with aer. Witness had known both prisoners at Lyme Regis, tn. Dorsetshire. Dyson bore an excellent character, tut Aoore's cuaracter was bad. The prisoner Dyson had given notice to leave when apprehanded. John llornblow, detective sergeant, of the K division, proved apprehending the prisoners—eno at Ratoliff, and the other (Moore) at Pimlico. Moore denied the robbery, and nearly fainted when told by witness ho was an officer and should apprehend her. The charge was read over, and Moore confessed the robbery, and sad that she had given the things to her sister. Pris Iner Dyson said, is defence, her sister had given her the things, and said they were bought and paid for. They were remanded till Friday, THAMES, TUB CONVICT'S WIFE --A REGULAR SHOPLIFTER.-- A. woman, about thirty years of age, who gave the name of Louisa Bull, but whose real name is Gates, the wife of a conviot, was brought before lir Partridge, on remand, charged with shoplifting. Elizabeth Emma Partridge, of 40, Martha-street, St, George-in-the-East, said that on Saturday evening, about nine o'clock, she went into her master's shop and saw the prisoner there, looking at some ribbons shown to her by another female, named Strasmore, who said, "There was a mauve ribbon in one of those boxes, is it there now I" Wit ness looked, and said, " No, it is not there." The prisoner said the missing ribbon was in one of the green boxes. TA showed the prisoner the boxes. The ribbon was not there. She begged of the prisoner to move from the counter, and said, "It ma) have fallen over the counter on to the floor, It was not there. She then asked the prisoner to look in her pocket, and told her it might have fallen into her pocket. The prisoner said she had nothing in her pocket but what she had paid for, and took up her pocket and held it out. She then took the prisoner into the kitchen, and she sat down in the chair. Mary Halt, another shopwoman, came in, and said she had bettor take the ribbon out of her pocket, and that was all she wanted. The prisoner said she should not. Mr Hancock, a member of the prosecutor's establishment, came in, and said he should fetch a policeman if she did not give up the ribbon. She said she did not care who was fetched. Mr Hancock then went out and brought in a policeman, to whom the prisoner was given in charge. The prisoner then dropped a neck-Lie from her pocket in the kitchen. Caroline Strasmore, in the service of Mr John Hall, an extensive linendrapor in the Whitcchapel-road and Martha street, said the prisoner first looked at some neck ties, and then said she would not have any. The prisoner then asked for ribbons, and looked at a great many pieces. There were none that would suit her. Witness missed a roll of ribbon from the box on the counter, and told the other assistant the ribbon could not be found. Tho witness then identified 13 neck ties, two pieces of ribbon, and three pairs of drawers, valued in all at 30s. The prisoner droppodsorne of the property from her person. The remainder was taken from her. In answer to a question by the prisoner, the witness said .—You had selected one pair of drawers. Charles Stannard, a police-constable, No. 439 K, was called to the shop of Mr John Hall, in Martha-street, and took the prisoner into custody. Before she was searched she dropped seven or eight neckties at his feet in the station house, She asked if he would not settle it. He said, "No, I can do nothing cf the kind." She said, "It is done, and I have done it before." He saw her take a roll of ribbon from her pocket, and put it back again. Ho afterwards re ceived the same roll from the female searcher. The searcher also took some neckties and three pairs of drawers from the prisoner's pocket. The prisoner was the wife of a convict named Gates, and she had been often in custody. The prisoner, in defence, said she was very tipsy when she committed the robbery. Mr Partridge—lt is the most deliberate case of shoplift ing I ever met with, and I have no doubt it is not your first offence. You are committed for trial. MARSDEN, TUE LEEDS FORGER.—It will be re• membered that this person, an ironfounder at Leeds and Castleford, escaped to America shortly after the collapse of the Leeds Banking Company, which establishment had negotiated forged paper for him to the extent of £70,C00„ From the examination which has been conducted into Marsden's affairs by the assignees, it would appear that he accounts in no fewer than five other banks, including ono in Leicestershire, and three is the North and West Ridings of Yorkshire. In each of these establishments there is a small balance lying to his credit. Ho was also connected with some seven companies under the Limited Liability Act, in two of which his name figured as a direc tor. Occasionally, by way of satisfying the scruples of the Leeds Banking Company, as to the bona fide nature of his transactions with business men, Marsden would adopt the following plan :—He would accept a bill, drawn in favour of "Messrs. Jack Straw and Co., machine makers," for £500; send an impersonator of " Jack Straw," to the bank, who would bring back the cash and hand it to Mars den. the remuneration being probably a glass of gin and a crown piece. Several of such instances of defrauding the bank Lave already transpired, Marsden was also able to do a fair buihess with the ironfuunders, who had found they could buy castings from him at about £1 less per ton than they couli make them for themselves. CRYSTAL PALACE—ONE SHILLING DAY,TheSday, Nov. I.—Admissions on payment, I,396—ditto by season tickets, 614—total vibitors, 2,010. We are generally in extremes at Worcester. Either it is hard going, or we are splashing through water up to the fetlocks in mud, This year " the faithful city" has dropped its bad character. and, with a clear and balmy atmosphere and the ground in good order, the meeting has brought together large fields and a very tolerable attendance. War rior, pulling double all the way, carried off the Handicap Sweepstakes, and landed the odds laid cn him very easily. For the hurdle race West-and, from Wadlow 's stable, was made a prodigious favourite, but, refusing at the first flight, extinguished his chance and the hopes of his backers. Mo rocco, whom Nightingall was scarcely able to hold, took up the running from this point, and after a race with Ross won cleverly by a neck, Au objection was raised by the owner of Roes that the other horses had act jumped the re quired number of hurdles, but it was overruled. The Nursery brought out, as it always does here, a good field for the half-mile scamper, in which Lcoville Equandered her horses with the greatest ease. The Autumn Handicap was thought a good thing for Prince Plausible, who with the top weight of Bst 41b found he could not give 281 b to Grosvenor when it came to the finish, Lord Wilton's colt running very cleverly. The Severn Bank Steeple chase—with rather bad judgment, seeing the light was waning, placed last on the card—had a field of a dozen, the winner turning up, after less than the usual inci dents, in Acrobat, who made most of the running, and cantered in with only Meanwood near him. li andicap Sweepstakes of 5 soya each, with 25 added, fcr all ages.

Warrior got away slightly in front, but was immediately pulled back, and the running was taken up by Lothian's King, closely followed by Vanquisher, Norma, Countersign, and Warrior, in the order we have given them, to the river side turn, where Vanquisher obtained a decided lead, Coun tersign at the same time runnirg wide, being loft in their rear. At the half-mile post Warrior joined his horses, the three running together to the half-distance, where Grim shaw brought the favourite to the front, and won easily by three parts of a length. There were three lengths between the second and third ; Lothian's King finished a bad fourth; Countersign was beaten a long way. The Hurdle Race, a handicap of 5 soya each, with 40 added.

Un passing the stand Morocco, over pulling Nightingale, rushed to the front and cleared the hurdles, slightly in advance of Clementi and Douche, who were followed by Little Lady, Ross, Bowman, and Little Dorrit, West-end, who followed, being a long way in their rear. They ran thus to the mile-post, where Little Lady headed Morocco, and came on with a decided lead, Douche lying third, with Ross,Littlo Dick, and Bowman next to the turn for home, where Morocco again came in the front, and, with Ross and Bowman in close company, ran to the dis tance, where Bowman was beaten, leaving the two to finish ;ho race home, Mr BAker's nomination Winning very cleverly at last by a neck ; four lengths between the second and third; Little Lady was fourth, Little Dick fifth, and Little Dorrit sixth. Douche, Clementi, and Overton trotted some distance in their rear, but . did not pass the post. West-end returned to the enclosure after his refusal. On returning to scale Mr Lincoln made en objection to the winner on the ground of having gone the wrong oourse, and, after hear. ing evidence thereon, the race was awarded to the owner of Morocco.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This day.

Spiritualism. This afternoon the Wizard of the North (South, East, and West !) surpassed all his nine years' triumphs in the exposure of the Spiritualistic Humbug of Table-rapping and Rope-tying. His youngest daughter, Miss L'zzie Anderson, was the Ariel of this Prospero. Her extraordinary per., .fortnances in the rope tying and untying ray won for her and for her astonishingly ingenious father again and again that ovation which they, both of them, so eminently well deserved. Tho Brothers Davenport were altogether ccliped, Professor Anderson's seance shutting them up far more effectually than their own " secretaire." The Convict Muller, When the Sheriffs left Muller's cell on Monday morning after informing him that they had fixed Monday, the 14th of November, for his execution, he for the first time showed symptoms of his dissatisfaction with the verdict of the jury. He once or twice said he had been convicted upon false evi dence, and implied that the evidence to which he referred had been adduced by some of the witnesses for the defence. From this moment the confidence which up to the time of the judge's summing up had so characterised the de meanour cf the prisoner, seemed to take possession cf him again, and in the course cf the el ernoon he expressed an earnest desire to ece Mr Beard, his solicitor. Ile cf a wards passed the day principally in rending, and .5:: pt sounder through the night than he did the two previous nights. Yesterday Muller seemed completely re stored to his wonted self-composure, and he appeared less anxious and looked decidedly better than at any other time since his apprehension. In the morning he, for the second time, expressed a wish to see Mr Beard. this fact was communicated to that gentleman, who, with the utmost readiness, and at some personal inconvenience, sought to gratify the wish of the wretched man. He proceeded to Newgate at three o'clock in the afternoon, and was con ducted by Mr Jonas, the governor, to the gloomy cell in which the . prisoner, guarded night and day, is doomed to pass the remainder of his snort existence. When the door of his cell was opened he was seated on ' the wooden bench inside. He evidently did not at that moment expect to see Mr Beard, so suddenly was he struck with an expression of pleasure and surprise. He instantly extended his hand to his welcome visitor, and earnestly thanked him for what had beer done on his behalf. He was attired in the same clothes in which he was tried, his hair was carefully brushed, and he appeared otherwise to have bestowed some pains in dressing himself. He was allowed to pass into a strong room, where in the presence,, although not altogether in the hearing, of Mr Jonas, he conversed with Mr Beard for about twenty minutes. Tho purport of the prisoner's conversation did not exactly transpire, but suffice it to say it was neither a state ment nor the "confession of his crime" which contem ponaries have suggested the probability of his making. On the contrary, it was rather a reiteration c f his innocence, and his persistence in the assertion that the hat found in the carriage never belonged to him. He complained also about the evidence of some of the witnesses, denouncing that of one in particular as almost entirely false. He subsequently shook hands with Mr Beard, who promised to visit him at any time and whenever Muller wished to see him. This .afforded him evident gratification, which he acknowledged in repeated thanks. It is said that petitions will be signed, praying for a commutation of the prisoner's sentence, on the ground that if he committed the murder it was unpremeditated and an act of momentary impulse. ABUSING A BANKER.—At the Leeds Town Hall on Saturday. Mr Martin Tobin, cloth merchant, of Albion-street, Leeds, appeared before the magistrates to answer the charge of using insulting language to Mr Wm. Beckett Denison, of the firm of Messrs Beckett and Co., bankers. Mr Denison thus deposed :—On the 26th of Oct. I was travelling from Apperley Bridge to Leeds, by rail. At the Kirkatall Station Mr Tobin got into the carriage. Ho had formerly had a banking account with us, and I had been obliged to speak to him about it. Mr John Yewdall was in the same carriage. As soon as Mr Tobin got in he said, " Oh you are here, are you, Mr Denison ? I have been looking for an opportunity of catching you for some time." I said, " Now, Mr Tobin, Ido not wish to have any communication Ni ith you, and I give you warning that if.you use any offensive language towards me I shall apply for a warrant on my arrival at Leeds." Notwith. standing that warning he continued from that moment in cessantly until I reached Leeds to use all sorts of oppro brious language towards me, calling me a liar, a diebonour able fellow, a low fellow, an ass; that he had only been restrained by his solicitor from coming to the bank and laying a horsewhip across my shoulders, and all sorts of disgraceful, abominable, and untrue insinuations, this being continued for a quarter of an hour. :Mr Yewdall said to him—" Now, Mr Tobin, I recommend you to be quiet; you have been in trouble once before, and bad much better calm yourself." Blr Tobin admitted having said to a M r "You Denison, into the carriage at K here,youoontemptible ass," upon irkstn : De areso n, on getting which the magistrates said that they considered the case proved against the defendant. Mi. Tobin, however, went on to say that Mr Denison had used insulting language towards him, and that the bad feeling had arisen out of a lawsuit between thrm about the banking account, 7he Court thus pronounced their decision :—We consider the language you have used is most unjustifiable, and particularly to a gentleman placed in the almost publio position in which Mr Denison occupies. We shall require you to enter into your own recognisances of £lOO to keep the peace towards Mr Denison and all her Majesty's sub'. ieute for six months, and to find two sureties of £5O each. Mr Tobin produced the necessary sureties, and the parties then lett the court.—Hanchester Examiner. CANDIDATES FOB THEATIIICAL APPOINTMENTS. —Mr. Symons, of the Theatre Royal, Sturt-etreet, Ballarat, advertised several days ago in the Argus for a dramatic company. and several of the applications he re.. ceived were certainly of the most amusing description. One young lady, writing a good hand, but having a merely bowing acquaintance with spelling, stated that she had con siderable experience on the stare as an at ti4e, and wanted a situation where talent was not required. The following is a correct copy of another of the applications, and it is certainly worth preserving :—" Dear Sur, —Having a great decire to learn the hart of a dramatic player, I beg to offer my survice on the stage as assistant in removing the senereys or aney other cappesitey as you may think fit. Having a little nolige of musick, I should be able to take a part in duets by a little practice.
