CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—This Day. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.) CHARGE OF ARSON. Joseph Ru , hton, 45, carrying on the business of a shoe maker, in Gray's-inn-lane, his private residence being at For3st-hill, was indicted for feloniously setting fire to the house of George Neal, he and other persons being therein at the time. The prosecutor was the brother-in-law of the prisoner, they having married two sisters, and resided at Forest-hill, the wife of the prisoner occuming a house adjoining. It appeared that the prisoner did not constantly reside with his wife, but was in the habit of visiting her every week, generally on Saturdays, and remaining until the following Monday. The fire in question took place on the morn,ng of the 20th of May, and it appeared that it had originated in ti.ree places, the gas-pipes having been cut in three places, and a quantity of turpentine had been set fire to in another plac , .. The evidence against the prisoner was, that on the night in question he was s( en in the neighbourhood of the house and could have gained access to the house, although lie denied having been there, stating he stopped at the shop in the Gray's .inn-road on the nit ht in question Upon the examination a foot mark was found in one of the flower beds, which corresponded with the prisoner's boots, a pair of which were found underneath a chest of drawers in the prisoner's bedroom at the back of the shop in Gray's inn -lane, and on their being compared by the police inspec tor one of them exactly corresponded with the foot mark in the flower bed, and a peculiar kind of clay or soil, similar to that in the garden, was attached to the boots. A number of witnesses were called, who Deposed to a variety of facts circumstantially connecting the prisoner with the fire. Tne jury returned a verdict of not guilty. NE W COURT. (Before the Recorder.) Thomas Henry Green, 70, a m.rine store-stealer at Lam beth, was indicted for unlawfully having in h's possession various metal bolts, the property of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty. The Recorder sentenced the prisoner to four months' im prisonment. Benjamin Everett, who was found guilty, cn Tuesday, on a charge of stealing a quantity cf leather, and whose case was mentioned yesterday, was again placed in the dock. An extraordinary number of witnesses were called, all of whom gave the prisoner a good character for honesty. The Recorder said he would well consider the whole of the case before passing sentence. John Snode Laws, lately carrying on business as a wine merchant in Mincing-lane, was indicted for obtaining goods within three months of his bankruptcy. There were a num ber of other counts against him, amongst them one that he caused several persons to accept bills of exchange by false representations, with intent to defraud. The de fendant pleaded net guilty. Mr. Gifford, on the part of the prosecution, applied to the court to exercise the power it possessed of striking out the latter part of the ch.rge against the prisoner, as it could not be said to be at all connected with the charges of in fringing the Bankruptcy Act and could only embarrass the prisoner in his defence. Mr. Hudd estone for the prosecution, opposed the appli cation. The prisoner was charged with obtaining a quantity of wine a short time befog e the bankruptcy, which he pledged, and then he obtained the bills of exchange upon the warrants for delivery, he having at the time no power to complete such a transaction. The Recorder, having consulted Mr. Baron Bramwell, said he should have liked the two charges to have been deat with by separate indictments, but as that had not been done, he should certainly not accede to the application of prisoner's counsel. The trial then proceeded, but as the facts have so re , cently been reported whilst the defendant was under exa mination at the Mansion-house, it is unnecessary to repeat them. The case will last the entire day. Metropolitan Rifle Contest at Wormwood S crubbs. Tne third annual meeting of the Metropolitan Rifle Association commenced yesterday at Wormwood Scrubbs. The programme for the third day's contest is a very ample one, and a peculiar merit is to be found in the conditions under which the prizes are to be contended for, the greater part of them being open not only to volunteers, but to all corners. The first prize consists of the Great Metropolitan Stakes for £lOO, seven shots each, at 200 and 500 yards. This prim? it has been considered expedient should be divided into 18 prises to those who might happen to be the highest on the score— viz , one prize of £25, one of £l5, one of £lO, five of £5, five of £3, and five of £2. The next a prize of £11; a sweepstakes divided into three prizes for long Enfields, five shots at 200 yards; a prize of £2l, five shots at 500 yards, for all comers with any rifle; a sweep stakes, to be divided into three prizes, five shots at 500 yards, for all comers with any rifle; a prize of £2l five shots at 500 yards, with long Enfields, open to all corners ; a prize of £2l, five shots at 200 yards, for all corners wi h any rifle; a sweepstakes, divided into three prizes, five shots at 200 yards, for all comers with any r ifi,; a prize of '2l, five shots at 600 yards, with long Enfields; a prize of £2l, open to all comers with any rifle, five shots at 600 yards; a sweepstakes, to be divided into three prizes, five shots at 600 yards with long Enfields; a prize of £ll for long En fields, five shots at 200 yards ; and a similar prize at 500 yards, besides several more prizes and pool shooting. The meeting was under the management of Colonel Lind say, of the St. George's Rifles; Captain Olderehaw, Cap tain Lochner, Lieut. Homfray, Lieut. Robinson, Captain Styan, Lieuts. Marrner and Hawkins, and under the imme diate patronage of Colonel Lindsay, of the St. George's; Lord Grosvenor, of the Queen's Westminster; Colonel Radstock, of the West Middlesex ; and Colonel Wood, of the Paddington 'Volunteer Rifle Corps. The arrangements were on the same principle as those adopted at Wimbledon with respect to scoring, targets,, and rules, the hits being added to the number of points This meeting has every year increased in importance, and the financial condition is very satistatory. Amongst those on the ground yesterday were Lord Bury, colonel of the Civil Service Volunteers; Colonel Holford, Captain Rosa, Major Ru-sell, Captain Williams, 19th Middlesex (winner of Lord Dudley's prize last year at Wimbledon); Sergeant Gibbs, of Bristol, and several of the Lest shots of the day. There were, in addition to the prizes above enumerated, several pool targets, which were extensively patronised, and the system of dividing the produce every two hours amongst those who were successful in obtlining bulls' eyes gave general satisfaction. The committee also allowed two shots at 6d, each, for the purpose of sighting, before the com , mencement of every prize, if re quired, and this was much approved of. The markers were obtained from the different regiments of Guards, and to ensure c Irect scoring they were in attendance on Wednesday evening for the purpose of practice. The Government ammunition of 1863 was used, and sold on the ground. The business of the meeting was not commenced at the time originally stated (nine o'clock) in consequence of the weather, which was very bad, the wind blowing violently across the range, and this very materially interfered with the arrang ments, and prevented an accuracy of aim, not withstanding the aid of the Elcho shooting screens which had been provided. The committee arranged to pay all the prizes in cash, but Mr Steward, optician, of the Strand, had a tent on the ground, in which were displayed a number of telescopes, opera glasses. &e., of the first class, adapted for rifle-shoot ing urposes, trom which the amount of the prizes could be selected, and several of the competitors expressed their in tention to avail themselves of them. In the pavilioa near to the ground Messrs. Mappin and Co., of Oxford-street, exhibited a beautiful display of silver and electro-silver plate, suitable for prises, and of very elaborate workman ship. The Great Metrop•ilitan Stakes naturally excited much interest, and the competition for them was most spirited ; but as the entries remain open during the whole of to-mor row, we shall defer giving the score until the contest for that prize is concluded. As far as it has gone, in conse quence of the state of the weather, the shooting has been rather of a poor quality. The following is the result of the day's shooting as far as it could be ascertain , d at nine o'clock last night : The fist prize of £5 was gained by Sergeant And-rson, of the Queen's Westminster, by 17 marks ; the second by Lieut. Marriner, of the 'W est Middlesex, by 17 marks. The following gentlemen tied with 16 marks for third and fourth prizes :—Hamman, 14 , h Kew ; Fellows, Victories ; Lieutenant Wa;mesley, 7rh Kent ; Corporal Backhouse, Civil Service ; and Private Little, West Middlesex. These ties will have to be shot off to-morrow. The third competition was for a sweepstakes, five shots at 200 yards. The following were the highest scores : Private Dighton, 3rd Middlesex .. 17 Ensign Starkie, Queen's Westminster 16 Sergeant Abbott, 30 h Middlesex .. 16 Lieutenant Penny, Bristol .. .. 16 Ensign Black .. .. • • .. 16 Serg.

By M. L. M. Carey. Booth. We have before us a goodly volume of handsome appearance, illustrated with some half-a-dozen beautiful sketches, recording a four months' cruise in a Dahabeeh (or river boat) upon the Nile. The travelling party consisted of five Earopeans—tha fair author of the narrative, "Cousin Phil" and his daughter Selina, to whom conjointly the work is dedicated, Find Thomas and Sarah, the man-servant and lady's maid—objects of unmitigated astonish ment to the native dragoman, whe, when he found they were each to have a cabin on board the Daha beeh, regarded them as "very great personages indeed." This dragoman, Mahommed el Adleek, with El Abi , :d and Ali, two of iris com,Danions, are depicted in the frontispiece, seated on the deck of .‘ tae Caire," as the Dahabech is named. Very pic turesque do they appear in their oriental costume, as displayed in the coloured engraving. There is also a picture of the crew of the Cairo" at breaf fast on the bank, and views of Boulak, the port of Cairo, the island of Pei:ae, and other scenes, very charmingly drawn, we ' resume, by the hands of the authoress and " Selina." The narrative is for the most part in the form of a journal, end possesses some of the advantages and aiso some of the dis advantages of that style of composition. It is easily and pleasantly written, and we realise the scenes and take part in the adventures detailed to us; but, at the same time, a great deal of very trivial and unnecessary matter is occasionally in troduced, and the style at times becomes too collo quial and undignifiLd. With the exception of these blemishes the journal proves very pleasant to read, and introduces into very unaccustomed scenes. There is an amusing account of a visit paid by the ladies to the house. of Sheik Abool Gowad, at Girgeh. Under the auspices of the invaluable Mohammed .hey are introduced to the Sheik and his mother. Selina wore dark gloves and gauntlets, and her " black hands," compared with her " white face," caused a great deal of whispering and specu lation among the hosts, and she was finally requested by Mohoratned to pull eff her gloves, and to show that hands and face were suitably alike. The gloves they had never seen before. The visit to the Bazaar is very interesting, and the account of the Eastern mode of embroidery is given in detail, and will be attractive to lady readers. The cover of the book displays some splendid specimens of the mosquito chat plague of the East, and very pitiful are the writer's complaints of the misfortune which occasionally befalls the unwary, who, shutting close the musquito curtains at night, sometimes shut in the musquitoes, with very direful results. The "Cruise in the Daheheeh" will :on acquaintance prove, we doubt not, as entertaining to its readers as it has done to the fair journalist and her com panions. Adventures and Researches Among the Andaman Islanders. By Dr. Mou9.t. Hurst and Biackett. The Andaman Islands, situated in the Bay of Bengal, are little , known even by name in this country, and their inhabitants hold about the very lowest rank among the diversified races of the human family. Nevertheless, Dr. Mcuat's book on this unpromising theme is full of interest, and we loubt not that many who open its pages will, like ourselves, be surprised to find its contents so gene rally attractive. In the course of the year 1857. immediately after the Indian mutiny, Dr. Mouat, then in Calcutta, was summoned to join an expedi tion to the Andaman Islands, in order to examine how far they were adapted for the establishmen: of a convict station, and to select a suitable site for such a settlement"—his colleagues being Dr. George Play fair, of the Royal Army, mac.' e evidentlyto n beauty o P w possess severer l e Lieutenant J. A. Heathcote, of the Indian Navy. My last evening in Calcutta," writes 1)r. Mouat, " was spent in the society of the Governor - G eneral and his kind-hearted and accomplished lady. Alas ! it is only a few years since, and they are n ow both no more ! To my certain knowledge they are both mourned throughout our Eastern Empire with a depth and intensity of sorrow, with feelings o f such deep personal regret as are seldom felt for those who have occupied a station so exalted." We must transcribe the following beautiful and evidently heartfelt tribute to Lady Canning : "I can scarcely trust myself to speak of the lamented Countess Canning. Her - popularity in India was, as it deserved to be, unbounded. Every one who has ever had an opportunity of coming in any way in coatact with her can only have words of praise to b. stow in speaking of her personal character. All were immediately attracted by the ma tchless grace and elegance o f h er ma nner, and the kind ness beaming in her eye at once won the homage of every ss d e g s ae vipsnsdatthu dignity ice l eh i sd g hastnteerdrore herself strengthens fthd c hoe amasseswemni p st hi femalei a s nn h do t r accomplish ments; e e a neth t : . c ,ttoaehfNir and Not a, tt but eua o ntt n h sl diligenceane d ce i b usefulda i she t h k character, zeal elevates the mind. Every one who was admitted into her presence she received with the most refined courtesy; and none could converse with her long without perceiving that all the other excellencies of her mind and heart were enhanced by that Christian grace which is the crowning beauty of an elevated female character. The virtues she manifested in her intercourse with society were evidently not assumed, as mere means of attraction iu he circle in which she moved; but were the natural out growth of her character, the root of all that was beautiful in her life and intercourse being within. Never will the memory of her inexpressible sweetness of disposition fade from the memory of those whose misfortune she endea voured to alleviate, and the smile with which she showed her sympathy in the happiness of the more fortunate is im pr,:ssed indelibly on their hearts. No doubt, like all human creatures, she had her weaknesses, but she knew how to conceal, :,to overcome, or extirpate them. Never did her innate kindness more delight in alleviating the sorrows of the unfortunate than during that fearful mutiny which overwhelmed so many once happy and prosperous families with uuexp'cted calamiti s. The sympathies of her noble nature were a source of joy and comfort to all during that period of trial and probation, and in many a grateful heart is the r ecollectio n o f her unwearied goodness cherished with a dev otion e q ual to that with which the pious Catholid regard e • the p atron saint whom he believes to be his constant feutrd and guide amidst all the temptation, sin, and sorrow tiL7flugh which ho must pass on his way to a better and higher life." At the close of the volume, Dr. Monett again re turns to Government House, bringing with him an object ,f universal curiosity—a real live Andaman —who, dressed in unaccustomed clothes, is pre sented to Lord and Lady Canning. " Most of the time Jack spent in their Vresence, he was greatly absorbed in self-adtuiratit , ini Ob serving his figure at full length ; i t! the large pier glasses with which the apartment was adorned, he stationed himself before one and regarding his own image with undisguised satis faction, Le continued grinning at himself with e leer expressive of the utmost self-admiration, con s'antly repeating with a strange chuckle, " Jack! Jack !" and then bursting out, in violation of all good manners, into an irrepressible fit of laughter, in which we found it difficult to prevent ourselves joining." Jack proves, however, more teachable and tractable than the majority of his tribe, but his health suffurs from the confinement and the climate, and he is obliged to return to his native town. He is put on shore and left there, divested of his costume in order that he may be received back by his savage brethren, who are singularly rude and inhospitable. Speaking of the Andaman Islands, Dr. Mouat ob serves that they form "an almost invisible dot on the map of the world, the civilisation both of the East and of the West has passed them by without in any way affecting the condition of their inhabitants. In these islands man is probably still in the same condition in which he was when they were first settled.'' "Their inhabitants acknowledge no law to restrain and guide them in life. Not only have they no knowledge of a supreme Being, but they are even destitute of such a rude system of religious faith as is generally found even amongst men in the most savage state. Their language is harsh and disagreeable, in an imperfect state of development, barely sufficient for the expression of their few and simple wants. Totally ignorant of agriculture, they have no means of making provision for the future, and must be satisfied with such fruits and herbs as the earth spontaneously produces, or with the shell-fish they pick up on the shore." Thanks to Dr. Mouat's explanations, we become to a certain extent acquainted with the manners of this uncultivated people, and we find, in addition, in the pages of this volume a variety of anecdotes and details on matters of general interest, For example, here is a description of some of the men engaged in the Expedition : _ _ "Many of them were NI ild adventurous seamen, who had led roving and unsettled lives in all parts of the globe. Excitement and danger were the elements of the atmosphere in which they lived ; and as they were utterly reckless bf their lives and persons, it was with difficulty they could be induced to exercise even ordinary caution when they were threatened with the most imminent perils. The officer who commanded them was a man according to their own hearts; he was the most daring of their number, and always in front when there was the least chance of an encounter of any kind. His life had been a very adventurous one, and the ex perience of danger had not taught him to fear or avoid it. He was on board the Prince, at Balaclava, in that terrible storm of November which so soon followed the battle of lukerman, and was the sole survivor of that lamentable calamity. When the unfortunate vessel went down, he was washed by the tempestuous sea on to a ledge of rock, from which perilous position he was with great difficulty rescued by means of ropes let down from the overhanging heights Such was the spirit of adventure by which this fearless man was animated, one might well imagine that on that eight of dark and ominous memory he had imbibed the very spirit of the Black Sea tempest." rite '` Matrimonial Parade" describes a . very original scene, and " David's Venture' in selection of a wife is an episode of much interest, but our extracts have elready extended so far that we must bile leave of Dr. Mouat's pleasant pages. FINE ARTS. The Lord s Prayer. Illustrated by Lorenz Froliell Trubner. A series of etchings upon the Lord's Prayer. every eentence being the text for an illustration. Some of these ilustrations are singularly happy, and the idea of the work is likely to render it popular. To say that the actual pictures come very far short of •_he ideal, conjured up by that sublime prayer, and familiar to us all from infancy is only to express what is, perhaps, inevitable. Nothing less than an inspired pencil could do justice to such a theme. In the first page, the Saviour looking up to His Father and ours, is teaching his followers to address the Almighty by that tender appellation, which is at once the token of our adoption and the bond of our common brother hood—" Our Father." The readers of " Bleak House " will remember the touching description of the death of poor neglected Jo. There, on his death-bed, for the first and last time, he learns to pray, and only those two words come to his dying lips Our Father—it sounds very good—it does,' says the dying boy—" Our Father!' " Give us this day our daily bread," is one of the happiest of the artist's sketches. The scene is a corn.fieid, and there in the midst of the harvest given by God —a peasant is dividing a loaf of bread among his children. A charming group, suggestive of peace Ind plenty, while from above beams dow❑ the benign face of the Divine Giver of all good gifts. •'Lead us not into Temptation" depicts the strug- ogling Christian clinging to the rock, while the sirens and the tempters allure him to the waters of destruction, and is very effectively pourtrayed. [he work is dedicated to the Princess of llcles. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day, (Before Mr. Potter and a Common Jury.) FRED. LILLYWHITE AND HIS LITTLE BILL WITH MR. VAN HARE-LILLY WHITE V. VAN HARE. This was a writ of inquiry sent down from one of the superior courts to assess the damages sustained by plaintiff in consequence of defendant not meeting a certain bill. Mr. Frederick Bent, of Cannon-street West, for the plaintiff, said—My client is the celebrated cricketer, and defendant is manager of the horses at . Cremorne Gardens. My client, for the accommodation of Mr. Van Hare, accepted a bill of exchange for £25. Plaintiff had none of the money, and he very naturally expected that defendant would pro vide for the bill at maturity. Mr. Van Hare, however, did not think proper to take up his little bill, and of course the holder applied to plaintiff. He found the money, and paid the dishonoured acceptance, but was compelled to put ma second bill of X %7 Is, as he borrowed money to pay the first. The plaintiff felt that he had not been fairly treated by his friend, and sued upon the £25 bill. Defendant had suffered judgment to go by default, and plaintiff now sought com pensation for the trouble and expenses to which he hart been put. Mr. Lillywhite was called and said I accepted the £25 bill to oblige Van Hare. It was in the nature of a loan from me When he did not pay the bankers served me with notice of dishonour, and they gave me from Saturday till Monday to take it up. With Mr. Watling's assistance I succeeded in doing so, and then I borrowed £25 to put all straight. I paid £2O 2s. for the loan, and I claim the last item. The jury will assess the damages as the actual loss sustained, not taking into consideration the incidental ex penses. The jury awarded plaintiff £27 Is. damages. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. :MARLBOROUGH -STREET. A CASE FOR THE DIVORCE COURT.— CRUELTY TO A WIFE.—Mr. James Wild, of the coffee and news-rooms, Leicest' r-square, appeared before Mr. Knox to answer the complaint of his wife, Mrs. Eliza Wild, for violently as. saulting her. Mr. Louis Lewis, of Ely-place, appeared for Mrs. Wild, and said that he should not go into details, but content him_ self with stating that his client had again to complain of an assault committed on her by her husband—part of a long course of brutality pursued towards her by him—and that Mr. Wild had been three or four times summoned to that, court, owing to his violent conduct. After calling Mrs. Wild, who would depose to the treatment she had received, he (Mr. Lewis) would ask his worship to deal with the case is he thought fit. Mrs. Wild (whose countenance was much disfigUred, owing to a bad black eye) then deposed that on Tuesday night week her husband behaved in a very gross manner () wards In-r in the cofleeroom, before a number of persons. She resented this and went upstairs, when he followed her up and struck her in the face. He then threw her on the bed, twisted her hair, and knelt on her. She got up, and he then took her by the hair and threw her on the floor, and again knelt on her and beat her, bruising her all over. He had been drinking a little, and all the while made use of the most disgusting language to her and the children. In answer tq a question, Mrs. Wild said her husband had treated her very cruelly for a long time past. A gentleman lodging in the house (Mr. Gosnold) deposed that hearing screams, he got out of bed and dressed him • self, and on going to Mrs. Wild's room he found her on the floor. On her getting up, Mr. Wild flaw at her, and grasped her by the throat. He pulled Mr. Wild away, but he after wards struck Mrs. Wild on the eye with his fist, and on the sorehead with a candlestick, end he believed that but for his interference the affair would have ended in a very serious manner indeed. In answer to the charge, the defendant set up a defence which only aggravated the complaint against him. Mr. Knox, after severely rebuking the defendant for his unmanly defence and animadve!ting in strong terms upon his cowardly conduct, committed him for two months with hard labour. ASSAULT ON A POLICE INSPECTOR AND SERGEANT Henry Mortimer, a rough looking fellow, was charged with atsaultiug Inspector Charles Bowles and Sergeant Apple. toi., 26 C. It appears there was a ball at Willis's Rooms, and the prisoner caused a great disturbance by running to the car riAge doors. Ho was requested to desist, but he refused, and on being removed assaulted the inspector and the ser geant. Ha was committed for 14 days. WESTMINSTER. UNPROVOKED AKRAULT.—CharIes Smith, a respectable young man, charged \ with an unprovoked assault upon Elizabeth Dunning, a pretty looking girl, of about eighteen, whose mouth was cut and her lips much swollen. Complainant said that she was passing through Polton street, Chelsea, last night accompanied by her sister and a young man, when, as they res.ohed a lamp, just where de fendant was standing, he laid bold of her (complainant) by the arm and wanted her to go with him. On being re pulsed for such conduct he gave complainant a blow, the effect of which she now exhibited. She produced a hand kerchief soaked with blood. The young man who accompanied the complainant said that she and her sister were on either arm of him when defendant caught hold of the complainant as described, and after being asked what he meat by such conduct, said he wanted to give her a smack on the mouth, an d did so, and then also struck him. A. p o liceman said that he heard th e call of 'c Police," and on going to the spat found the complainant bleedefe n ing d very profusely from the -face, upon whiAt he took the d d bn leainant into custody, when he co m p lained that he ha treated by the young man in company with the compa and his companions. Defendant now repeated this, and said that he had never Ile had been been in such a position as the present befor b eca use he e severe ly beaten by the man's companions acci dently touched them . There was a p ceman present who could prove that he (defendant) was r espectable. The policeman in q uestion said he had known him for six years , and that he was a respectable hard working man. Defendant said all the case against him had been micro t d mid he never st ruck a blow till he was himself presen e , attacked. Mr. Selfe said that the assault upon the. young woman was severe, and would spoil her good looks for some time. li e might give her £1 as compensation ; if he did not h o would be fined £2. ga gave her £l, SECOND EDITION.

THIRD REA .INGS. The Pembroke Township—Dublin, Wicklow, and Wex tord Railway (Amendments)—Wa,e, Hadham, and Bunt ingford Railway (Amendments) —and Stockport District Water bills were read a third time, and passed. THE CASE OF MR. BISHOP. The Marquis of NORMANBY said ho would on Mon day ask the noble lord the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he would lay on the table of the house a copy of the despatch relative 0 the pardon of Mr. Bishop by the King of Italy. Earl RUSSELL, imme , clittely on the noble marquis taking his seat, said he should not have the slightest ob jection toproduce the document referred to. THE STATUTE LAWS. The LORD CHANCELLOR rose to call the atten tion of the house to the present state of the statute law in the courts of law and equity, and for the purpose of introduc ing a bill for the revision of the statute law. The noble and learned lord said he proposed to do little if anything more than revise the proposition of that great man, L9rd Bacon, which appeared in a production of his entitled the amendment of the laws of England, the wisdon and excel lency of which, although it had been admitted from age to age, yet, from that singular inertia which characterized ti,nglish legislature nothing had been done. The object of the measure would be to insure a greater certainty in legal decisions that a case might be recorded according to the statue rather than by precedent. The noble lord, in assert ing the necessity for such a measure, quoted statements made by Lord Eldon, Lord Ellenborough, and other learned lords, in various cases that had come before them. (LEFT SPEAKING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS.--This Day. The SPEAKER took the chair at twenty minutes after ,welve. NEW MEMBER.-KINSALE. Sir George Coulthurst took the oaths and his seat. The hon. member was introduced by Mr. Herbert and Mr. Beamish. THIRD READINGS. The following bills were read a third time :—Elginshirs and Nairnshire Roads, Bridges, &e. ; Hadlow Railway ; Waterford and Passage Railway and. Ferry. FISHERIES (IRELAND) BILL. Col. VANDELEUR said he understood that the right hon. baronet intended on the second reading to make a statement with respect to the purpose of the bill. It would be doubtless exceedingly satisfactory to the Irish members if he would do so on the present occasion. Sir R. PEEL said he was quite prepared to do so ; but he considered that the discussion that would to-day be entered upon would fully answer the purpose of an expla natory statement. (Hear, hear,) Col. ,VANDELEUR , expressed his satisfaction at the statement of the right hon. gentleman. Sir R. PEEL moved that the house should go into committee on this bill. Mr. SCULLY said if they were legislating for a new country like New Zealand they would probably not permit wiers and bag nets in the rivers, but it was impossible that they could take away the rights of proprietors without compensation. He did not altogether approve of the bill of the hon. and learned member for Wexford (Mr. M'Mahon), but at the same time he did not like to see its chief features plagiarised by the bill of the Government. He proposed in regard to compensation that the value of the fishing rights of the various parties interested should be estimated and capitalised, and paid by annuity or in some other way. The bill did not appear to him to make proper pro vision for compensation, No time ought to be lost in placing the law on a better footing. Anglers ought to be taxed about 4d. per lb. for each " individual " salmon they caught because they materially contributed to lessen the breeding of the fish. (Hear, hear.) Sir H. BRUCE said there was no doubt that the bill of the hon and learned member for Wexford was one for the confimation of ancient rights, confirmed and secured under the Act of 1812, and that the bill of the right hon. baronet was simply a compromise. He denied that the sea fisheries were so injurious as had been stated ; it was the sweep nets in the rivers that croated the great damage. Mr. BRUCE said any sea fisheries within miles of the mouth of rivers would be interfered with. After a few words from Mr. Cox and Sir R. PEEL in ex planation, the house went into committee, and the various amendments, occupying no less than 10 closely printed pages, and chiefly of a technical nature, were proceeded with. The discussion occupied the remainder of the sitting. The house resumed at six o'clock, and was (LEFT SITTING.) LONDON GAZETTE—This Evening, At the Court at Windsor, the 11th day of June, 1863.
