Two o'CLocK. At the first half-yearly meeting to dby of the shareholders of the Union Bank of Ireland, Mr. T. W. L. Mackean in the chair, the report submitted to the proprietors stated that notwith standing the depression in every branch of industry in Ireland, consequent on successive deficient harvests, the accounts showed, after paying all current expenses, a balance of profit amounting to £823 7s. Id. to be carried to the next account. The arrangements for the establishment of branches in several parts of Ireland were not completed till last March. An extraordinary general meeting of the share holders of the Oriental Inland Steam Company was held to-day for the purpose of receiving a report from the chairman (Col. Grimes) of his investiga tions in India into the conduct of the managing director, and of a resolution requesting his r.itire meet from tne management of the company. The Netherlands Land Enclosure Company held its t leventh annual meeting to-day, Mr. G. P. Bidder in the chair. The report, which was car ried unanimously, stated that, in consequence of the unusually severe storm of the 19th and 21st .December, 1862, which destroyed no less than 12 polders in the vicinity of the company's land, and occasioned great damage to the banks of the com pany, the payment of the half-yearly interest due this month on the 7 per Cent. Obligations could not be made. The Paris Three per Cent. Rentes, this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, opened at 67t. 10c. 67f. 15c.; firm, but inanimate. Soon after the commencement of business this morning at the Stock Exchange, an advance of 1 per cent. was established in the English Funds, occasioned no doubt by the more pacific view now taken of political matters, and the continued owe.- lent accounts of the clops. The rise, however, was not maintained after the arrival of a telegram from the Paris Bourse, showing no particular movement in the Rentes, and Consols receded to the prices 'which were current at the clase of yesterday after noon, viz., 93 4- for money and account. The New Threes and Re,inced Annuities are at the enhanced price-, of 939 I. The New 21 per Cents. are 771; and the 30 Years Annuities, 159. The Indian 5 per Cent. Loan is 1081 ; the 5 per Cent. Eufacad Paper, 1(07; the Deben-nres, 100 4 1 -,. A further decided advance has taken place in the Foreign Market, and business is active. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1862, are 67 1 ; do.

Caledonian have improved £1 ; Lincashire and Yorkshire, and South Eastern, 10s.; and Midland, 15s. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there has been no material change.

The shooting prospects are everywhere ex cellent. Ittfreshing rains would, however, be beneficial to th. , young broods, as long continued droughts often prove disastrous. The coveys are very wild, and strong on the wing, and not a bird is to be seen which will not ~, rise a hund re d yards before. I n Gl enaray, Gl encroe, Lochtyn, Fid , Lochaweside, Dalmelly, and all the other fine shooting ranges here, the prospects are reported to be u nusually go o d. The birds are far advanced, i n excellent c ondition, and very numerous. In the deer forest, superior stalking is a nt i c i pated. The fawns have been numerous, and the. herds of deer are in a splendid condition, owing to the fine grazing season. So many fine antlered stags have seldom been seen, and heads of twelve and fourteen points will not be difficult to find. ~ . ~-_ SHARE MARKETS—This day.

BOW-STREET. littsr Smith, John Griffin, and Ellen Barber were placed before Mr. Hall, charged with assault ing the police. Police constable 112 F raid he was on duty last evening, near Parker -street, Drury-lane, when his attention was attracted by the female prisoner, who, being intoxicated, was dancing and singing and making a great disturbance. He went up to her to endeavour to persuade her to go home, when she commenced calling him anything but proper names, and as he was about to remove her from the place she commenced fighting, and, on closing with him, she bit him in the hand and on the knee. Griffin seeing the woman in custody rushed to the spot, and with a stick, which he held ia his hand, beat him so about the head that ho thought his life was in danger. He then for a short time seized hold of b tth prisoners, when Smith came forward and attempted to rescue them. Some other con stables fortunately ct.nae up, and all three prisoners were conveyed to the station, The constable's evidence having been corroborated, Mr. Hall asked the female what she had to say to the charge ? Barber—Say to it. Why, that it's all false, and he knows it. Drunk indeed I Why, how could I get drunk when I hadn't anything to eat all day ? (Laughter.) I've got a baby, and it's not likely I should get drunk. Mr. Hall—Then you say you were sober? Well, that only makes the matter worse. Barber—Oh, does it I (Laughter.) Then all I've got to say is, that I hadn't anything to eat, and having a baby— (laughter)--I don't think the drop o' beer I took could hive ttken effect of me. Mr. Hall—Well, Smith, what have you to say to the charge? Smith—l wasn't in the street at all, so I couldn't have anything to do with it. (Laughter.) Mr. Hall—ALd I suppose, Griffin, you were not there either ? Griffin—That's it, your whorship, I wasn't. (Laughter.) Mr. Hall—Then it's all a mistake of the policeman's, Le was not struck at all, and the marks about his face prove it? (Laughter.) Griffin—Well, I wasn't in the mess. I never hit him with a stick. How am Ito tell how he got the marks on his face ? The police constable said he never lost sight of either of the prisoners for one minute after the row commenced. Barber—lt's not true that I was drunk. I have wit nesses to prove that I had nothing to eat all day. (Laugh ter.) Mr. don't want to hear witnesses about what you had to eat. (Laughter.) I want to know what you had to drink. Barber—Well, nothing but a drop of beer, and I suppose the weather had some effect on it. (Laughter.) Mr. Hall—lt is very cowardly for three people to attack one man, and I shall fine you, Bather, 20s. or 21 days' im• prisonment, you, Griffin, to a month's impriconment, and you, Smith, to a fine of 30s. or 15 days' imprisonment. MARLBOROUGH STREET. CHARGE OF HORSE-STEALING AGAINST A BOY.— Churley Edwin Fennell, a respectable-boking boy, 14 years of age, and living at 17, Blomfi-ld- terrace, Paddington, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a horse of the value of £lOO, the property of Mr. Henderson, job , master, of the Grosvenor Riding School, South-street, Park lane. Robert Dille, foreman to Mr. Henderson, said that on Monday morning the prisoner came to the stables and said he wanted two saddle horses—one for himself and one for his brother—to go to the Crystal Palace, Sydenham, and that they were to be sent to 17, Blomfield-terrace, Padd.ng ton, at 10 o'clock, where his father resides. He returned, however, about 9 o'clock, and mounted one of the horses, and wanted to take the other with him, but he (witness) re fused to let him have it, and sent a man with him. The prisoner took the man to the Strand on some excuse, and told him to go back and tell him (witness) that he would ride home one horse himself, but before doing so he changed horses, taking the most valuable one. He, however, never came back with the horse. The man sent with the prisoner by the lest witness said that the prisoner, on sending him back with one horse, tad him that he would ride the other back himself, first having changed horses, and then said he sh , ,uld go to Sydenham by himself, but that if he did not he would re turn wi.h the horse soon, but that if he went to Sydenham he would return to the yard at six o'clock. Thomas Jones, 271 D, said yesterday afternoon he went to Willesden, and in the evening, after searching for the prisoner, found him in a pleasure boat on the canal. He also ascertained that the prison( r had been there the day before with two horses, which he had been letting out in cheap rides co the school children at Willisden. O. inquiry at the livery stables he (Jones) found that prisoner had had about 20 horses from different persons—sometimes out for four hours and sometimes for five. On searching his room he foun i a number of spurs and whips. Mr. Tyrwhitt inquired of the first witness the value of the horse taken from Mr. Henderson, and the witness Diike said it was £SI Jones said he also found that the prisoner yesterday bought a pound of sherbet and gave it to a man almost a stranger, and on asking the prisoner how he could have got to town without any money, he said that he should have ridden the horse along the towing path of the canal, and thus have avoided the toll gates• The uncle of the prisoner stepped into the witness-box, and on Mr. Tyrwhitt asking him whether he wished to say anything of the prisoner, he replied, "Nothing in his favour, sir." Mr. Tyrwhitt told the uncle the prisoner would be re manded for a week, when it is believed several other charges will be preferred. MARYLEBONE. CRUELLY WORKING A HORSE —Thomas Norman, a carman, was charged before Mr. Yardley, at the instance of Mr. W. Love, chiet officer of the Royal Society for tha Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with the following cruelty to a horse : • James Rutherford, one of the society's officers, said that he was in the Hampstead-road and saw prisoner in charge of a waggon containing a ton and a half of coal, having only one horse in it. Whilst under the railway bridge, and just before reaching the canal bridge, which has a very steep ascent, he lashed the horse muse brutally, in order to make him " take the bridge" with such a heavy load. The animal made a dead stop, utterly unable to proceed any further. Witness remonstrated with him on his cruelty, and on looking at the horse he found whip marks under the belly and on the most tender parts. There was matter otizing from wounds on the shoulders and other parts. Mr. Yardley, who had seen the horse, said it was in a most wre ched state. F,ederick Hubbard, coal-dealer, of 3, Rathbone-place, Oxford-street, the owner of the horse, said he was not aware it was in so bad a state. Mr. Yardley—Nonsense, sir; don't stand there and tell me that. I never saw a horse more sensitive in my life. It is impossible to touch the poor beast without its showing pain all over its body. It is a scandalous shame, and I shall fine the prisoner 10s. and in default of payment seven days hard labour in the House of Correction, and, Rutherford, if the master does not pay the fine take a sum towns out against him for sending a horse out in such a state. The master paid the fine, and said he would have the horse destroyed. THAMES. TAKEN IN AND DONE Fox.--A poor man, named Weaver. came betoze Mr. Partridge and stated that he pur chased the duplicate of a chain, which was represented to be gold, of an acquaintance, and redeemel it. He had since taken it to Mr. Carpenter, a very respectable pawn broker, in the Callum street-road, St. George-in. the-East, who said the chain was only silver, and electro-platei with gold on the surface. He gave 3s. for the duplicate. The chain was in pawn for £2 155., and it cost him in all three guineas. He believed it was only worth a few shillings. Mr. Partridge—l cannot help you at all. You have made a very bad bargain indeed. Applicant— I hav e indeed, air; I have been taken in and done for, Mr. Partridge --I should think that chain is only worth a few shilli ngs. A pawnbroker's assistant in court said the utmost value of Ihe electro pla ed silver chain was 15s. The applicant said he was very much surprised that any pawnbroker should lend sos. on a chain only worth 15s. Mr. Partridge —It does seem very strange, indeed. I cannot help you, but it the person who sold you the dnpli cate is worth powder and shet you can proceed against him in the County Celia. I have no jurisdiction in the case. Muss FICENT LEGACIES. —The Edinburgh Courant hex : I:G am 3 r ol t ,understandse.set who that died the onh late t of 1 e bequeathed t following legacies to the under-mentioned educational and cnaritable institutions, viz. :-1.

All the ribs, veins, and prominences of the leaf are thus inked over. Now, if the inked leaf be placed on paper and rolled in the same manner, it yields 01 course an impression of itself, and gives an imprint of its finest parts. It will be seen from the result of the race that those who followed my advice, and backed my despised outsider, Blackdown, never mentioned by !-Ltiy other writer, will have no reason to regret their investments. I concluded my remarks in the Sun of Monday es follow : " The only one that has an outside chance is Blackdown, who is in Drewitt's stable, and is doing good work." A FRESH MAN. GOODWOOD RA:InS-11TEDxrst,AT. The c:lorier.s weather and the attraction of "the Stakes" brought together a large and distinguished concourse to day. To give a list of the company would be to include nearly all those members of the aristocracy who have fled from the metropolis to seek in cool sea breezes and the agremens of country houses, the rest so much needed after the fatigues of the London season. We observed his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Beaufort, the Duke and Duchess of Montrose, the Earl and Countess of Winchelsea, the Earl and Countess of Stamford, E ar l and Countess Spencer, the Earl and Countess of Lincoln, the Earl of Derby, the Earl of Coventry, the Earl of Zet land, &c., while many of the "faithful Commons," released from senatorial cares, were more agreeably occupied in speculating on the different chances of Buckstone and the French mare, and whether Anfield really was the certainty his party asserted. The Stakes have been shorn of much of their interest of late years from causes which it is not necessary here to enter upon. The general opinion that this year's entry was of an in different quality was borne out by the fact of no one animal being prominently in the batting until Anfield came with a rush, on the strength of a very favourable trial with Stanton. Messrs. Payne and Greville are gentlemen who do not often make mistakes, and the public endorsed their judgment by elevating their hJrse to the Premiership. This post he continued to hold through good and evil report, though Bellman trod close on his heels. The Wasp gelding was held in high estimation by his stable, and Balham had his friends. The result was a blow to the gentlemen, the win ner turning up in an extreme outsider, Blackdown, a colt who had been tried very high with Bally Edmond, but the secret had been so well preserved that up to the last moment his friends were able to obtain a remunerative price about him.* Bellman and Zapateado, as will be gathered from the account of the race given elsewhere, broke down, The Findon brought 12 young ones to the post, and an interest ing contest resulted in the victory of Paris, who had been satisfactorily tried with the Clown. Linda represented Mr. Naylor's stable, and was in immense demand, but she could never quite reach Paris, whose victory was the more surpris ing as on his last appearance in public he ran a very mode rate animal. Tomato was reported a little off, which will account for the figure she cut in the race, Macaroni's ap pearance in the Drawing-room Stakes was of course an event, The winner of the Derby looked and went splen didly and had the race in band, despite his penalty, from the first, winning easily by two lengths. The following are the full details of the racing, which commenced with The Goodwood Derby of 25 soles each, 15 ft, for 3-yr-olds ; colts Bst 101 b, and fillies Sat 71b. Maiden horses allowed 31b.

Zora on the extreme right, in company with Despair, were the first to show in advance, having Liston and the favourite on the left, Melandra and Weatherglass lying off several lengths. They ran in these positions to the bottom of the hill, where Despair was headed by Liston, who waited upon Mr. Bryan's mare to the enclosure, where she was beaten, leaving Liston to canter in the winner by a length and a half. Despair, who headed Zora in. the last few strides, finished second by half a length. The others were beaten off some distance. Sweepstakes of 300 soya each, h ft, for fillies, Bst 71b each.

On settling into their places Jack o' Hearts, evidently for the purpose of serving his stable companion, immediately rushed to the front and made play at a strong pace, followed by Loiterer, the favourite, Blackdown, and Zapateado in a body ; then came, at an interval of a couple of lengths, Bar chettina, Balham, and Blondin, nearly abreast, the rear being brought up by Bellmaa and the Maid of Masham filly, With little alteration they proceeded to the turn out of the course, rounding which Zapateado ran into the second place, Magnum Bonum going on third, with Blackdown, Blondin, and Barchettina inclose attendance. As they pro ceeded along the skirt of the hill to the far turn, Lord Zet land's colt gave way to Magnum Bonum, who, with Bar chettina and Blondin at his girths, was observed, on reap pearing in sight, several lengths in advance of Balham and Anfield, who headed the others, Lord Glasgow's and Bell man retaining their rearward position, and half-way up the hill were joined by Zapateado, Loiterer, and Barchettina. Jack of Hearts maintained his advantage round the turn into the straight, closely attended by Magnum Bonum, Blackdown, Anfield, Balham, and Blondin, to which lot the race was evidently confined, and who came on in com pany into the bottom, where Jack o' Hearts, having per formed his required task, gave way, followed in a few strides further by Balham and Blondin. Blackdown then immediately went to the front and came on with a clear lead on the far side, waited upon by Jack of Hearts, Mag num Bonum, Anfield. and Blondin. At the enclosure An field came with a rush and joined the leaders, but, after running a few strides in company, Morgan called upon Blackdown, who pulled in advance and won very cleverly by three parts of a length. .' . ack o' Hearts finished a bad third, as far in advance of Magnum Bonum,who was placed fourth; Blondin was fifth, Balham sixth, Loiterer seventh, and Barchettina next, beaten off a long way; then came at wide intervals Wasp gelding, th e M aid o f Masham filly, Zapateado, and Bellman, the two latter having broken down badly ; the positive last being Canzonette, who trotted in a long way in their rear.

Lush, curate of Greywell, Hants, prevailed upon a couple, who had been married at an Inde pendent chapel fourteen months before, to be re-married by him ; the parties being described in the banns, and in the register, as a bachelor and a spinster respectively. For this offence against the law he was committed for trial at the Winchester assizes; but, in tho interim he thought it proper to confess his error, and the prosecution was abandoned. In his apology, he acknowledged the validity of marriages performed either in dissenting chapels or before Superintendant Registrars, and also that they were " binding in the sight of the Church." Another clergyman, who has either forgotten these facts, or who is determined to brave the penalties of the law, has, it would seem, just committed a similar offence. On the 21st of June, a young couple were married at the Independent chapel, Monmouth, the man being an Episco palian, and the woman a Baptist. Eight day after, the vicar of St. Briavel's, Coleford, the Rev. H. Walmesley, re-married them; describing the man in the register as a bachelor, and the woman as a spinster, and entering the woman's maiden name. The Government having been questioned by Sir Morton Peto, whether they intended to prosecute the offender under the 4th of Geo. IV. c. 76, s. 29, Mr. Bruce, the Under So cretary of State, has replied that-- " He did not think that the conduct of the vicar in ques tion was such as to make him liable to prosecution for felony under the Act 4 George IV., c. 76. Either the first marriage was valid or it was net. If it was valid, then all that wr.s done was superfluous, and could not be the subject of prosecution. If the first marriage was invalid, then everything was properly done. It was clear the conduct of the vicar was not an offence against the law. It might be an offence against good taste and good feeling, and as such to be condemned." In this answer Mr. Bruce has either avoided the question put to him—which was, whether Mr. Walmesley would be prosecuted for the false entries made in the register—or he is wrong in his view of the law. For Mr. Walmesley has clearly violated the 29th section of the act referred to, which adjudges any one to be guilty of felony who know ingly makes a false entry in a parish .register; F eeing that he has registered the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Huila as that of a bachelor and spinster, he at the time knowing that they were legally man and wife. He cannot even shelter himself behind the provision of an act of Parliament passed since the occurrence, of the Grey well case, and passed for the purpose of meeting the views of High Church clergymen, who are shocked at the idea of contracting a marriage without any religious service. For the 12th section of the Marriage Act passed on the 29th of July, 185 G, provides, that if the parties to any marriage contracted at a registry office shall desire to add the reli gious ceremony of the body to which they belong, they may present themselves to a minister of that body for the pur pose. But it is expressly provided, that the Superinten dent Registrar's certificate of marriage must be produced, and "nothing in the reading or celebration of such service shall be held to supersede or invalidate any marriage so pre viously contracted, nor shall such reading or celebration be enterd as a marriage among the marriages in the parish registry." As to the off-hand official assertion, that if the first marriage was valid, " everything that happened subse quently was null," it may satisfy Churchmen, but it will not satisfy Nonconformists, who are the best judges as to the mischievousness of such proceedings as those of the vicer of St. Briavel's. With much difficulty they have suc ceeded in securing the right to celebrate their marriages in their own places of worship, instead of in those of the Es tablishment. They know by experience how assiduously Churchmen try to prevent persons availing themselves of that right. Is it likely, therefore, that they will quietly allow a public functionary, who is bound to respect and uphold the law, to break the law for the purpose of casting contempt on Nonconformist marriages, and producing the impression on unthinking people that they are neither sanctioned by the legislature, nor can be followed by the blessing of Heaven Fortunately, what the Government declines to do may be done by others ; and, without wishing for any resort to vindictive proceedings, we hope that this case will be vigo rously dealt with by the Committee of Dissenting Deputies, who did good service by their proceedings against Mr. Lush in 1856. It is more than a matter of feeling which is involved ; for the greatest practical evils may arise if the clergy of the Establishment are allowed with impunity to make delusive entries in our parish registries.—(From the forthcoming volume of the Liberator.) Mr, Gladstone's Chance of Becoming Leader of the House of Commons. Mr. Gladstone's management of the House of Commons closely resembles the Irishman taking his pig to market than any other kind of leadership. The want of sympathy between him and his audience shows itself very strikingly. He cannot bring himself to understand an Englishman's aversion to crooked ways, either intellectual or moral. His performance upon the night on which the Exhibition build ing was disposed of has left behind it, in the minds of num bers of men, doubts of his political honesty which it will take years to efface. Yet it was a blunder which a genuinely dishonest man would never have committed. A man who had been accustomed to practise upon the credulity of his follow-men might not have been afraid to induce an assem bly to purchase a bit of land which was heavily encum bered, by the assurance that the title was clear from all encumbrance; but he would not expose his own trick to his mortified dupes within a fortnight of its success. It was eminently the proceeding of a man who had every desire to be honest, but who had so crooked and warped his own mind that he had become unable to discern whether a given course of conduct was or was not likely to offend other men's moral perceptions. All these defects intensify each other in the minds of those whom they affect. A very large mass of the House of Commons are offended by the extreme superciliousness of manner with which Mr. Gladstone treats every opposition that threatens to be formidable. He treats the house as though he seemed in all good faith to believe that his supercilious objurgations are gentle and dignified remonstrances. His perceptions upon this subject are so strangely blunt, that it is difficult to shake off the impres sion that he learnt his present style of speaking in some previous state of sxistence, when he was in the habit of ad dressing other Gladstones formed like unto himself. It would seem that these wonderful beings decidedly liked being snubbed in the tone in which the usher of a country school rebukes his little boys, and found that an abundant garnish of unnecessary words was rather an assistance to them than otherwise in comprehending the statement of simple matters of fact. But there is no immediate proba bility that an English assembly will attain to this height either of tolerance or of perception, A considerable num ber in the House of Commons again bear a grudge against him for the harshness with which his legislation has been directed against their class interests. These, however, are grounds of dislike which men do not care to avow very openly ; and possibly they would gradually wear away if they were not supported by others more respectable. But they add no little intensity to the vigilance with which his sins against direct and straightforward dealing are detected, and to the force with which they are denounced. Just as Lord Palmerston's popularity of manner makes men very kind to the virtues of his policy, the schoolmaster tone that has become a second nature to Mr. Gladstone prevents even his professed supporters from affecting the slightest blind ness to his many political failures.—Saturday Review. 6CULLERS' MATCH }OR £2oo.—The exciting sculiers' mutch for £lOO aside, between Robert Chambers, champion of the Thames and Tyne, and Robert Cooper, was decided on the Tyne on Tuesday evening, in the presence of a large muster of spectators. The lace was rowed in outrigged boats, the distance being from the high Level-bridge to a boat, moored off Waterson's Gate, about one mile. A vast deal of interest was centred in this contest from the well-known speed of the champion, and the fine rowing power displayed by Cooper in his late race n on the Thames with Everson ; while the hollow manner _ :which he defeated Tagg in a mile race on the same day in which he boat Everson induced his friends to back hi m freely at the odds of six and seven to four, upon Chambers.

The report of the select committee of the House of Lords, together with the minutes of evidence on gaol discipline, forming a blue book of M 2 pages, has just been published. The present state of dis cipline in the gaols and houses of correction is dis cussed at considerable length, and the conclusion arrived at by the committee is, that it is desirable to establish without delay a system approaching as nearly as may be practicable to a uniformity of labour,diet, and treatment ; and that whilst indus trial occupation should in certain stages farm a part of prison discipline, the more strictly penal element of that discipline is the chief means of exercising a deterrent influence, and therefore ought not be weakened, as it has been in some gaols, still less to he entirely withdrawn. Association or a mixed system of association and separa tion, prevails in many gaols. Such anomalies, how ' ever, are, in the opinion of the committee, very ob jectionable. They should be removed at the earliest practicable time; and their present existence can only be justified by the difficulties of reconstruction, an d the natural reluctance of the local authorities to incur a heavy expenditure. Referring to the course of legislation, now extending over many years, and to the opinion of the highest authorities, the committee consider that the system generally known as the separate system must now be accepted as the foundation of prison discipline, and that its rigid maintenance is a vital principle in the efficiency of county and borough gaols; and they recommend that legislative measures should be taken to render the adoption of separation obligatory upon all gaols and houses of correction in England and Wales; in short, that it should be made to pervade the entire system of the prison. There are also many cases, the committee urge, in which it would be possible to substitute the shorter . terms of three and seven days' solitary confinement on bread and water for the present sentences, rang ing from seven to twenty-one days, with hard la bour, a term which they consider requires an au thoritative definition by Act of Parliament. The committee further express their opinion that the treadwheel and crank do not demoralise the pri soner, as is commonly asserted ; they recommend that every prisoner sentenced to hard labour, shall, unless exempted by medical authority on grounds of health, be employed at the treadwheel or crank not less than eight hours per day the first three, and not less than six hours per day during the next three months of the first year of imprisonment; and, as a condition of the receipt of the Treasury allow ance, that all gaols and houses of correction s h a ll be provided with a sufficient supply of hard labour ma chinery for the average number of male prisoners sentenced to such punishment. W i t h respect to the question of prison diet, b e modified, they present scale may with advantagthee w hile admitting that the e ff e ct produced are of opinion that, as regard s by confinement upon prisoners, an d the necessity of f ur ther investiga tion is needed; and, under certain ingredients in the fo o d, these circumstances, tho committee recommend that a commissicn b e appointed to inquire i nto these questions w ith au thority to determine b y experiment the p o i nts re f err ed to them. Daring short sentence s , or the e arlier stages of a long confinement, th e pr i soner should ma dea to dispense with the u se of a mat tress,should sleep upon planks, a s and Sho is the eas e i n m ilitary prisons. The usual period of 97; to 10 hours devoted to sleep the com mittee think exceeds the fair allowance due to health, and i s i e . jurious both to the prisoners and to the prison dis cipline. They would, therefore, limit the time w hi c h the prisoners are a ll owed in bed to eight hours. A portion of the evening,after the labour of the day, might be devoted to school instruction; but under no circumstances should the school become a substitute for labour. In reference to prison punishments, the committee state that "the most experienced 'witnesses are unanimous as to the wholesome influence of corporal punishment ; some, indeed, have stated that they have never known it ineffective : and the committee wish to record their opinion of its great value as one form of disciplinary correction." In con clusion, the committee recommend that power should be given, in cases where the borough gaol is too limited to admit of satisfactory arrangements, to the corporation or governing body, to contract with the county gaol upon such terms as the Secre tary of State shall approve; and, further, that these borough gaols which are not required for purposes of present or future utility should be scheduled in a bill for entire abolition. LAW INTELLIGENCE--This Day, COURT OF BAN'Kr;UPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.) IN RE :707.N LEE SCOTT. In this cazz. his Honour passed the bankrupt's exami nation, and granted the order of discharge, but that deci sion was appealed against, and the Lord Chancellor had directed that the matter should be referred back to the learned Commissioner for further evidence. _ Mr. Griffiths complained that the opposing creditor had not complied with the order of the Lord Chancellor to bring the matter to issue without delay, that the matter might be decided before the vacation, but the order had not been drawn up, and consequently the case was not in his Honour's paper of business fur the day, but the matter stood in the Lord Chancellor's list for the day. The bankrupt had volunteered to submit to any further examination, however searching, and to give every expla nation ; it was therefore a very hard case that he should be prejudiced by the 'aches of the opposing creditor. Mr. E. C. Lewis protested against the irregularity of taking matters not in the list before the business of the day. It was a matter of constant occurrence, and led to great inconvenience. He was engaged in a cause from 11 o'clock, and it was now 12, and he must ask the Court to proceed with the business on the list. His case had been adjourned till this day. His Honour said he did not see how he could proceed at all. He had decided on the case, as he was led to believe, on its merits. He was now told that his decision had been appealed against, but he had nothing before him to show that. Mr. Griffiths said there was no doubt of the fact, but the to o r d t a r n a w e e s p o the tha idfe-: passible,i e Honour's decision question was wa s vitalf whow i a m s p be conveyed to the Lord Chancellor before his Lordship rose to-day. His Honour said he would not allow applications to in terfere with the regular course of the business of the day, but after the list of the day had been gone through, he would hear any arguments on either side.

BULWER'S TRIBUTE TO LAMARTINE !—When Alphonse Lamartine, by an immortal speech, in which there is no wit and no sparkle, struck down to his feet the red flag, we recognised intuitively the difference be tween the maxim-maker's knowledge of the conventiona world and the poet-orator's knowledge of the universal human heart. Honour to Alphonse Lamartine for his knowledge of the heart in that moment which saved the dignity of France and the peace of Europe, no matter what were his defects in the knowledge of the world—defects by which rulers destined to replace him learned to profit Honour to that one triumph of poetry put into action Honour to Alphonse Lamartine !

I stake my money on the odd numbers, and my neighbour on the even. If I win he loses, if I lose he wins; but, in either case, the bank—which, in the present instance, is represented by the press—gains its commission. And there are other resemblances between the game of advertising and that of the green baize tables. If you must gamble, the first rule is—Go in heavily, and play high. In that event, you may win a great " coup ;" but if you go on with peddling stakes and a cautious system, you are absolutely certain to lose. So, if you must resort to puff a dvertising—advertise, every. where and anywhere, to the utmost of your means, or your credit, s.nd you will end in the House of Lords or—in the Gazette. But if yo u trate with advertising, you will lose your money without a doubt. As the majority of mankind have not the courage to piety a bold game in any pursuit, it is certain that, as a rule, advertisers make small ventures, and waste their substance foolishly, --Once a Week.
