LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.) -O. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr Commissioner Kerr.) THE CUSTOM ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE-CLEAVE V. IVATSON AND OTHERS. This was an action to recover £2, an alleged overcharge on commission, plaintiff being a speculator, and defendants a firm of stockbrokers of Capel-court. Plaintiff said he instructed defendants to buy £2,000 consols for him, and there had been an overcharge. De fendants had charged 1-16th commission, instead of 1-32 d, as per contract. It was the custom t 3 charge half commis sion where a special agreement was made. One of the defendants said that his firm did business upon no such terms as those stated by plaintiff. No respectable stockbroker would think of charging 1.32 d. It could he amply proved that 1-16;h was the customary half commis sion. Plaintiff'—But I have here the contract in which express terms are set out. Defendant—And I produce the statement of my accounts with the plaintiff, in which your Honour will see that we have never charged less than 1.16 th commission. llis honour--I should think not. It does not seem likely, Defendant—lf any alteration has been made in the terms of the contract, it is an error on the part of one of our clerks, who clearly had no right to make it Plaintiff—l go only upon your contract given after I had seen your advertisement, in which you agree to charge only halt commission. Defendant--And I may say that we have only charged that commission to which we are justly entitled. No brokers would charge less than 1-16th. Plaintiff—You perfectly well know that I am entitled to pay only 1.32 d commission, and this defence is a little sharp practice on your part. Defendant—Here is the statement closing the account. His Honour—You have settled the matter, and now you try to get the money paid out of the pockets of the defen dants by means of the process of this court. I do not think that defendants would consent to do business upon the terms you mention, Plaintiff—l hold in my hand the special contract signed on behalf of the defendants by one of their authorised clerks. In that contract there is an agreement to do the business for ma upon the terms mentioned in it. Defendant - Shall I cell my clerk His Honour—Oh, certainly. It does seem necessary. Defendant's clerk said that the contract put in originally stood at 1.16 th, but plaintiff requested that it should be altered to 1-32 d, and witness altered it in error. Defendant—As your Honour must know, the usual broker's commission is 1-Bth, and the half of that is 1-16th. This sum has been charged all through to plaintiff, and he has paid it. Our statement shows this, and we are pre pared to stand by it. Plaintiff--Will you swear that you never charged as little as 1-32 d on contango? Defendant—l do. I never charged less than 1-16th. His Honour —I find that defendant's elerk has explained the nature of the contract, which appears to be au error, and that the customary charges have been made. De fendant will have a verdict, Verdict for defendants. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day( WESTMINSTER. CAUTION AGAINST INTERFERING WITH THE POLICE ATTEMPT TO RESCUE A PRIbONER —James Paddock, coal porter, in the service of Messrs Sale & Co., coal mer chants, was charged before Mr Arnold with interfering with the police in the execution of their duty and with attempting to rescue a prisoner from the custody of a constab' e. Policeman 247 B, stated that about five o'clock in the afternoon of the previous day he was on duty in Brompton when he totk a man into custody. The prisoner came np and asked him to let the man go, he refused to do so. Witness told him that if he interfered with him (witness) he should take him into custody. The prisoner then told the man to lie dOwn on the pavement. When he dropped down, prisoner at the same time observed that he would not go away until he had witness's name and address. Witness subsequently had a struggle with the man in his custody. With the asssistance of another constable the prisoner was secured and taken to the police station. By Mr Arnold—The prisoner was drunk, and the man in my custody was charged with being drunk and incapable. Mr. Arnold (to the Prisoner)—Well, what have you to say to the charge ? Prisoner remarked that he thought the man in the cas tody of the police was one of his mates, but he found that he was in the employment of Messrs Ricketts and Smith. All he said to the constable was, "Are you going to lock him up ?'' He (the constable) said, "You have nothing to do with it." Mr Arnold—When you found that the man was not your mate you should have gone away. B 290 corroborated the evidence, and said that when the prisoner ran away he went after him and took him into custody. Mr Arnold—You are convicted for an improper interfer ence with the police in the execution of their duty. Prisoner was fined 405., or in default 14 days' imprison ment. MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE. The supply of English wheat on sale here to day was small. The demand, however, ruled far from active ; nevertheless, Monday's currency was supported. The market was moderately supplied with most descrip tions of foreign wheat. The amount of business transacted was somewhat restricted, yet prices ruled fir m. Floating cargoes of grain were steady in price, although the trade for them was in a sluggish state. Grinding barley sold steadilyat full quotations; other wise, the barley trade was quiet, on former terms. In malt about an average business was transacted, at full prices. The supply of oats on the stands was but moderate. On the whole, the trade ruled steady at very full prices. Bens were in small supply, and steady request, at es. treme rates. Peas moved 6ff steadily, and prices ruled firm. The flour trade was steady, and no quotable change took place in the currency. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt.

ORANGES IN THE AZORES.—Nowhere are oranges of more importance than in the Azores. 'ruse islands live on them, bpth directly ss food, and indirectly as a profitable industry. Just as in other . parts of the world a man's wealth is reckoned by the number of sheep, cattle, or horses which he can call his own, so here the orange. tree forms the unit of value. You do not say, such a one is worth so many thousand pounds, but that he has a quinta containing so many trees, High and low, rich and poor alike, derive their incomes from oranges. Whether it be for good or evil, the population are certainly not " divorced from the soil" in the Azores, for while the great proprietor has his 1,000 or 1,500 stems, the peasant rejoices in the "orange tints that gild the greenest bough" upon his own dozen or half-dozen trees. During the years when the orange-trees are yielding no fruit, maize or beans are grown between their ranks, but seldom afterwards, unless the owner be very poor or very greedy. The islanders de vote their whole time, thought, and energies to the cultiva tion of the orange, and watch over the trees with great care and anxiety, to preserve them from the violence of the elements, or the ravages of that destructive in sect, the coccus. The crop is generally bought by the merchant before it has reached maturity, and there are professional valuers who have attained great pre cision in calculating the produce of each tree. After the bargain is made, however, the weather or the insect may play sad havoc with the quints, and cause heavy loss to the purchaser. the well known St. Michael oranges, so much esteemed in this country, come from the Azores, whi c h , upon an area of 229 miles, yields annually oranges to the va lue of about £90,000, and to the number of nearly 300,000,0001 A seventh of this quantity is usually con sumed by the inhabitants ; the rest is exported,—Chambers' Journal, AMERICA. (REUTER'S EXPRESS,) LIVERPOOL, June 2. The Inman screw steamer City of York, from New York on the evening of the 18th ult., arrived here this afternoon, via Queenstown yesterday. The following despatch from Secretary Stanton to Major-General Dix, gives the latest information from the Army of the Potomac : " Washington, May 18, 11.15 a.m. " We have no report of operations since my last despatch. The latest information from General Grant was that the roads had greatly improved. Large reinforcements had reached him, and he de signed to move against the enemy without delay. "It is the design of the Government to keep up ;he national force until the rebellion is over thrown, and in el der to provide Figainst any in opportune reduction when the service of the 100 days' men go out, a draft to fil up their place, and all other reductions, will be ordered to take place on theist of July, by which time the new enrol ments Will be completed. "No order is yet issued," The following official despatch had been ad dressed to the Associated Press by Secretary Seward in reference to the forged proclamation issued in the New Fork World : 6, Department of State, Washington, May 18. "A paper purporting to be a proclamation of the President, countersigned by the Secretary of &Eat, and bearing date the 17(11 day of May, is reported to this department as having app eare d i n th e New York - World of this date.

State Department or any other d epartment o f this The Dispute between the Coroner and Vestry of St, Pancras, Yesterday, at the weekly meeting of the vestry of St. Pancras (Mr. Churchwarden Lawford in the chair), the vexed question of the coroner's beadle ship was again brought under consideration, by the production of the opinion of Mr. Lush, Q.C., and Mr. Weisby, as to their right to dismiss Murray, a coroner's officer, and appoint another man, named Holland, in his place. After stating their case, the vestry call upon counsel for their advice as to whether they have any, and what power, to compel the coroner to deliver his warrants to Holland, whom they have appointed ; whether Murrey, having teen dismissed by the vestry, can legally execute the coroner's warrant and receive payments made by the justices of the peace ; whether the vestry have any, and what remedy, against the coroner; whether the vestry have control over the constable in the execu tion of the office, and what, if any, proceeding should be taken by them. The opinion of Messrs. Lush and Welsby is against the vestry on every point. In their opinion the vestry have no power to compel the coroner to send his warrant to any particular person, and he may send it to any constable or police officer within the district where the death occurs. They do not find that the vestry has any authority under their act to appoint constables or peace officers, or to designate, under the denomination of " coroner's beadle," or otherwise, any particular constables or peace officers to perform the duty of executing the warrants of the coroner. Murray being a constable for the metropolitan district, they considered that all that was necessary for the pur pose. They answer the questions if the Vestry have any remedy against the coroner or right of control over the constable in the .negative, and do not advise any proceedings by the vestry against either. Mr. BISHOP moved that the opinion of counsel be referred to the committee, to report upon the steps necessary to be taken under the circumstances, bat it was negatived by a large majority, and the case and opinion ordered to be entered on the minutes of the board. " WILLIAM IL SEWARD, Secretary of State," The New York World has issued the following explanation of the appearance of the " bogus" proclamation in its columns : " The World, in common with the Journal of Commerce and all the city morning papers, was made the victim of a malicious hoax by some scoundrel, who, imitating the mani fold copy of the Associated Press , sent around the extra ordinary proclamation which appeared in our col umns . listed Supposing i t i n i t g w on a d s all faith,rig right, the d th e nightfalfalsity editor ty was in charge pub. ti , t discovered until the edition was nearly worked off.

The Herald, we understand, printed the false proclamation in a large edition, but, fortunately for them, discovered it in time to supprpss it in their regular edit i on.

Cardinal Wiseman and " The Times," (From the Queen ; Saturday, June 4.) A fine sample of Journalistic morality was given in a late number of the Times, which at the same time, sheds a curious light upon some transactions which have lately oc cupied the attention of the public. In a recent pastoral let ter issued by Cardinal Wiseman, the Roman ecclesiastic and statesman takes occasion to comment with some severity upon some passages in the letter which Garibaldi addressed " to the English nation." The phrases which Cardinal Wise man selected as the text for his reprobatory discourse were certain expressions about the "Goddess of Reason" and the " Temple of Reason" in opposition to the Papacy, and as the meaning of these phrases must be familiar enough to those who have studied the history of the first French re volution, the Cardinal seized the occasion to ask a question —not impertinent, under the circumstances—whether the British nation, and especially that portion of it which affects orthodoxy in its opposition of Romish domina tion, is prepared to follow a worshipper of the " God dess of Reason" in his plans for despoiling the Pope of his temporal possessions. Upon this, the Times inter posed the to gis of its publicity to defend Garibaldi, and could find no readier means of doing so than by accusing Cardinal Wiseman of a forgery. "Doubts (to quote the mild explanation of the Times itself) were expressed as to the genuineness of a passage quoted by his Eminence from Garibaldi's letter"—in other wards, whether words had not been attributed to General Garibaldi which ho really never used at all. Cardinal Wiseman, however, is not a man to be put down so, especially when he has spoken " by the card." He sends to the Times a copy of Garibaldi's letter ungarbled, entire, and as he wrote it. To this there is no reply— litera scripts manet, and the Times can no more argue the wards out of the letter than Bas sanio could rail the seal from off Antonio's bond. The manner in which the great journal attempts to extricate itself from the dilemma is curious. It admits the validity of the Cardinal's plea, as, indeed, it could scarcely do otherwise, and then sacrifices the sanity of the recent god of its idolatry. The version which it had seen of Garibaldi's letter was th a t which appeared i n th e Morning Post ; which, h owever, had been garbled, and Garibaldi's "foolish expr ess i ons " were omitted f rom it. The Times can now "hardly d oubt that the General him self, If he could now revi se thi s strange rhapsody, wou ld withdraw the offensive contrast between the idolatry o f Reason end the Papacy."

MARSHAL PELISSIER'S OBSEQUIES.—A letter from Algiers of the 26th of May states that the death of Marshal Pelissier produced a very painful impres sion throughout the colony'. On Tuesday, the 24th, the public were admitted to see the remains of the Marshal, which lay in state in the Government Palace. The desire was so great to see the inanimate form of the Marshal for the last time that, to prevent accidents, it became necessary to place sentinels and police agents at the gates of the palace to regulate tho approach. French, Spaniards, Arabs, Israelites, and strangers were all admitted in turn. The Arabs were not the least anxious to obtain admission. The silence in the interior of the Palace formed a striking con trast with the noise of the streets. Visitors passed through galleries hung with black to the chapelle ardente. The de ceased was extended on a state bed, dressed in the unitorm, of a Marshal of France. He held his baton in his right hand, his kepi lay at his feet ; his head and face were un covered, the features unchanged. Priests and Sisters of Charity were praying round his bed. The passage opened for visitors was lined with sentinels. Mass was celebrated in the chapelle ardente on Tuesday morning by the Bishop of Marseilles, and on 'Wednesday by the Abbe Sachet, Vicar-General. . Signor Giuglini will make his fa, - --- rst appearance at Exeter Hall, ;in conjunction with Madame Parepa, Miss Romer, Mr W. H. Cummings, and Mr Santley, at the National Choral Society's performatce of the " Hymn of Praise," and " &abet Mater," on Wednesday next. The band and chorus will number 700, the whole under the direction of Mr G, W, Martin. Agricultural Chemistry, M. Boussingault, whose important labours in scientific agriculture are well known to our readers, attributes, in the 33 volume of his " Agronomie, Caimie Agricole et Physiologie," just published, to the oxalic acid contained ir. guano, qualities hitherto overlooked by other chemists. If, he observes, guano be treated by water, and the solution be immediately filtered, crystals of neutral oxalate of ammonia will be deposited by evaporation ; the mother-ley thin contains sulphate and phosphate of ammonia; but if, instead of filtering, the mixture. lie left to digest for some time, the case is quite different; the oxalic acid goes on dimi nishing in the liquid as the digestion proceeds, and phosphoric acid is formed instead ; after 24 hours, this acid and the ammonia are in sufficient quantity to form an abundant precipitate of phos pate of ammonia and magnesia, when a solution of sulphate of ammonia is poured in. The phosphate of ammonia is produced by the oxalate, which, being dissolved, acts upon the phosphate of lime ; hence, by double decomposition, we obtain a soluble phosphate of ammonia and an insoluble oxalate of lime. From this our author concludes that the oxalic acid of guano is a principle of far greater importance than has hitherto been supposed. Both earthy and ammoniacal guano he considers to have the same origin ; but in OA former the disappearance of ammonia is probably due to local circumstances, such as the abundance and frequency of rain, which naturally favours the de composition of organic substances and the dissolu tion of ammoniacal salts. And indeed that part of the South Sea coast where ammoniacal guano is found, offers this peculiarity that from Tumbes to the desert of Atacama rain is almost unknown, while in the parts not comprised between these limits, north of Tumbes, in the impenetrable and marshy frorests of the C.oco, it rains almost inces santly. At Pay ta,south of that province, it had not rained for 17 years, at the time M. Boussingault was there; and further south, at Chocope, in 7 deg. 46 min. S. lat., the rain which fell in 1726 was men tioned as a memorable event. Nor are there any storms on this Peruvian coast. An inhabitant of Para or Sechura does not know what thunder is, unless he has travelled. This is the zone within which ammoniacal guava is found; north and south of this zone, guano, exposed as it is to tropical showers, g. nerally contains no ammonia or soluble salts, but retains an unsoluble one, phosphate of lime. This third volume of M. Boussingault's work contains much interesting matter concerning climate, temperature, &c., chiefly comprising the results of the author's own experience and accurate observa tion.

President of the Royal Scottish Academy, and member of the Royal Academy, the honour due to his unrivalled eminence in his especial department of his art was not less freely, nor with less pride in his genius, paid in England than in his native country, to which he, during his whole life, so lovingly and so beneficently clung. John Watson Gordon was born in Edinburgh some 74 years ago. He studied at the Academy of Trustees for the Encouragement of Manu facture in Edinburgh. He early turned his attention to that branch of his art in which he has achieved so high a reputation. He first exhibited in the Royal Academy in 1827, continuing to do so up to the present exhibition. In 1841 he was elected associate, and in 1851 member of the Royal Academy. He has filled the chair of Presi dent of the Royal Scottish Academy, which owes to him so much of its vitality and its position, since the death of Sir W. Allan, in 1850. In that year, also, he was appointed limner to her Majesty, for Scotland, on which occasion he received the honour of knighthood. Sir John was unmar ried.—Scotsman. A NEW GIGANTIC BALLOON.—Mt. Comell has just completed a new balloon, which is somewhat larger than the one in which ho has made the high ascents, in company with Mr. Glaisher. Like its celebrated prede cessor, the present machine has been constructed at Tot tenham —this time under canvas, on the aeronaut's pre mises, and we may add entirely from Mr. Coxwell's own resources, both 'as regards artistic and pecuniary ability, There is a peculiarity about this balloon which admits of a vast increase of capacity, should enlargement be at any time necessary, in order to compete with continental " Geants." This novelty consists of the telescopic elongation, so to speak, of the balloon, by means of indiarubber cloth intro duced when required into the equator. Messrs. Fantle. we and Jacques, of the Tottenham Indiarubber Works, are trying a few experiments to ascertain which is the most suitable material for Mr Cox well's purpose; and they have permitted their designer, Mr Williams, to attend to Mr. Coxwell's requirements, and also to execute an immense figure of Britannia, as a specimen decoration to the balloon, to be transferred thereupon when it shall have achieved its first ascent. The magnificent addition to aeloptatic art will be inflated in the centre transept of the Crystal Palace, on the 6th, 7th, and Bth inst. It is rumoured that the novel idea of a concert inside the balloon is to be carried into effect each day during the exhibition. An engine of two-horse power will keep up a continual supply of fresh air, so that the orchestral department may net be inconvenienced. Some interesting experiments on the propagation of sound will be connected with this balloon concert, and thus, like most of Mr Coxwell's undertakings, amusement will be ass - )ciated with science.—lottenhans Adverttser, June 1.
