QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) HOWARD V. GOSSETT. Mr. KELLY (in continuation from eur Afternoon Edition) said—Now this was not an arrest for con tempt. It was an attempt on mesne process to compel a person to give evidence—a pewer possessed by no tri• bunal in the country. He submitted that the House of Commons had no power to arrest any of the Queen's subjects on mesne process. They had a right to sum mon a person to their bar to give evidence, and on his refusal to attend, they had a right to adjudge him in con tempt, and having so found him guilty of contempt they had a right to commit him. But they had no power to commit him for anything but contempt, least of all had they the power to commit on mesne process to compel a party to give evidence, He would not go into the pre cedents furnished by the House of Commons, for pre cedents might be found there for every crime and every folly, from the taking off the head of a king to the com mittal of a person for serving a notice in a case of eject ment on a servant's servant of a Member of the House ; but there were no precedents to be found in cases argued and decided in courts of justice showing that the House of Commons possessed the power of arresting cn mesne process, and it was not a sufficient justification for them to assume that they possessed such a right, and he relied upon the judgment in the case of Stockdale v. Hansard in support of that position. The possession of such a privilege must be distinctly averred, and could not be taken by intendment, as was done in these pleas. The plea ought to have distinctly shown that the plaintiff had been served with the summons to attend—the averment that he had had due notice was not sufficient. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE—DO you contend that he ought to have had personal service ? Mr. KELLY contended that the plea ought to have shown that he had had such service as was usual. He therefore submitted that the warrant which was relied on as a justification was bad, inasmuch as it set forth no cause of arrest, neither did it give any directions as to the imprisonment. But the defendant could not fall back upon the averments in the pleas to aid the defective warrant ; but if the Court should hold that he could fall back upon those aver ments, then he submitted that the Court would not by its decision hold for the first time that the House of Commons possessed a power of imprisonment like that now sought to be claimed, and would not recognise by giving it their judicial sanction the existence of a power which had never before been claimed by any court of justice. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL felt the deepest concern in rising to defend the privileges of the House of Commons, the very existence of which was directly struck at by his Learned Friend's argument. The existence of these privi leges had always been admitted. It was admitted that the recognition and the exercise of them was essentailly neces sary to the House for the performance of its important functions, and it appeared that there was now a desire to strike down these privileges of the House one by one, by appealing to the judicial tribunals of the country. He trusted, however, they would find that protection in which he owed to the Court, but consistently with this Court, which would not render it un necessary for them to resort to self-protection. He trusted he should never forget the respect that respect, ho insisted in the strongest manner on the existence of those privileges of the House of Commons. Now, in this case, the first plea alleged, that certain matters and things were then in debate before the House of Commons, concerning which the House considered it necessary that the plaintiff should be examined at their bar, and that the House, in pursuance of its ancient usages and privileges, ordered the said plaintiff to attend the House forthwith, of which order the plaintiff had had due notice ; and that the said plaintiff did not attend, but wilfully, con • temptuously, and without reasonable cause or excuse, refused to obey such order, whereupon in order to compel the attendance of the said plaintiff, the House, accord ing to its ancient usages and privileges, and in accordance with the law and custom of Parliament, ordered that the plaintiff should be brought before the House in the custody of the Sergeant, and that the Speaker should issue his warrant accord. ingly; and that the Speaker, in pursuance of that order, and in accordance with the ancient usages and privi leges of Parliament, had issued his warrant, reciting the order of the House, and that upon that warrant the de fendant had taken the plaintiff into custody. Lord DENMAN—The order sets forth that he shall be brought to the bar of the House of Commons. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL was much obliged to his Lordship—it did so. The second plea was the same as the first, and the third plea alleged that the arrest was justified by the contempt of their ancient usages and privileges of which the plaintiff had been guilty, and concluded in the same manner as the first. To these pleas the plaintiff had demurred—admitting that the summons had been issued—admitting that he had had notice—admitting that he had contemptuously, and without excuse, neglected to attend—admitting that all that had been done bad been done by the House of Com mons in pursuance of its ancient usages and privileges, but affirming that these pleas were not a suffi cient answer to the action, inasmuch as the order did not set forth the cause why he was to be examined, or show why he had not a right to conceal himself, nor on what occasion he had been guilty of contempt; and the Court was called upon to decide that acts done in pursuance of the admitted ancient usages and privileges of the House of Commons, and according to the custom of Parliament, were illegal, and that in the most degrading, offensive, and contemp tuous manner that could be imagined. The first point on which he insisted was, that the defendant being an officer of the House of Commons was protected by the order of that House directing him to do to the plaintiff the thing complained of, and that such order of itself, and without more, was an answer to the action. The latter part of his proposition undoubtedly led to the consideration of the cor rectness of the judgment of the Court in the case of Stock dale v. Hansard ; and notwithstanding all the respect he bore to their Lordships, he must be permitted to say that he was not to be taken as being precluded by that judgment from firmly protesting against the decision in that case, in order that if hereafter that judgment should be called in question, his acquiescence on the part of the House of Commons might not be quoted in support of it. But this case essentiallydiffered from that of Stockdale v. Hansard. There was no allegation in that case that that which was done had been done in pursuance of the ancient usages and privileges of the House, which was alleged in the present case, and which was admitted by the de murrer ; an] he would call their Lordships' attention to the judgment of each of their Lordships in the case of Stockdale v. Hansard in support of this view. It was impossible for their Lordships to avoid giving judgment in favour of defendant without deciding that the House of Commons bad no legal right to exercise their admiited powers and privileges. In giving judgment in the case of Stockdale v. Hansard, their Lordships had admitted that they had no right to question the exercise of those rights and privileges which the House of Commons was acknowledged to pos sess. The House of Commons had unquestionably pos sessed those different privileges and powers, and had exercised them from the earliest period without question, and they were absolutely necessary for the due per formance of its functions. The powers of the House of Commons were different from those of courts of justice. Courts of justice could not originate an inquiry. The House of Commons could. Lord Coke called them the great inquisitors of the realm, and referred to their own journals—to those journals, the authority of which was denied by Mr. Kelly, from a knowledge of those privi leges, and of the manner in which they were exercised. In the judgment in the case of Stockdale v. Hansard there was the strongest recognition of those very powers. In a case of conspiracy for an invasion which might be come the subject of inquiry before the House of Com mons, were they to give notice to a person who might perhaps be implicated in that conspiracy of the subject on which they wished to examine him, giving him in fact notice to abscond ? It was very doubtful whether a ma gistrate did not possess thb power of compelling the at tendance of witnesses. Lord DENmAx—What is the case with regard to coroners? The SOLICITOR- G ENERAL--It was very doubtful whe ther a coroner did not possess the power of issuing his warrant to compel the attendance of a witness, but the House of Commons had always exercised the power. Lord DENmAN—But I should like to hear you say a little more of the power of compelling the attend ance of witnesses, possessed by courts of common law. Suppose I was sitting here at Nisi Prins, and a witness were contemptuously to leave the court without giving evidence, and I were to be informed that he was in Palace-yard, and refused to attend., ought I to permit the course of justice to be interrupted, knowing that he was within the reach of my officers ? Have lor have I not the power to order his arrest ? The SOLICITOR-GENERAL—Your Lordship ought to have the power, certainly, but it is a power that has never been exercised, and there is no judicial decision on the question. Lord DENMAN—It is a most important question. Practically we dep en d upon su b poena and recognisance for compelling the attendance of wit nesses , b ut i t i s very im portant to consider whether or no we possess any further powers. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL now came to the question of the validity of the warrant, and he submitted that it was the duty of the Court to make every favourable construc tion on behalf of the House of Commons. The warrant was admitted to be in conformity with their ancient usages and privileges, and therefore the presumpti on must be in favovr of its validity. Mr. Justice WIGUTMAN—The warrant is to take him into custody, but it does not say where he is to be taken. How can that be a justification? The SOLICITOR-GENERAL apprehended that as the order of the House for his attendance at the bar was re cited in the warrant, that was sufficient to show the place to which he was to be taken. But he would not agree to argue this question on the low ground taken by the other side. He would not submit to the low and de grading compromise sought to be instituted between warrants issued by justices of the peace, and other. in ferior tribunals, and a warrant emanating from one of the supreme assemblies of the land. In early times no warrant at all was issued. The House sent the mace and that was sufficient authority. He denied the right of the Court to consider the validity of the warrant. The attachments for contempt issued by the superior courts never set forth for what it was that the person attached was to be examined. It had been laid down by Lord Coke that the House of Commons was a court of judi cature, and in such cases one court of co-ordinate juris diction could not question the validity of the proceeding of another. He, therefore, submitted that their Lord ships would not take upon themselves to decide against the practice of the Commons House of Parliament be- __ _ _------ -- cause th a t pract i ce differed __ from the forms observed in this and the other courts. He next proceeded to contend that it being thought the House had in this proceeded in a matter over which it undoubtedly possessed no jurisdiction, a court of com mon law had neither right nor power to inquire into the ',discretion of the House of Commons in this matter, nor into the formal manner in which that discretion was ex ercised. If it were admitted, as it must be, that the House of Commons possessed the power of compelling the attendance of persons before them to give evidence, no court would inquire into the man ner in which that power had been exercised. (The Learned Gentlemen cited an immense mass of authorities in support of his position.) But supposing the Court had power to scan this warrant, still he con tended that the warrant was quite certain enough for the purpose required. It was more certain than sending the mace to require his immediate attendance. He con tended that he had a right to bring in the averments in the plea in aid of the warrant, and if so, the ob ject and intention of the warrant would become apparent. He submitted, therefore, that a complete answer had been given to all the objections raised by his Learned Friend, and that the Court should give its judgment in favour of the defendant. He also submitted that even if the Court should be of opinion that the pro ceedings were void, there could be no action against the officer who executed the warrant. Lord DENMAN—We will hear you upon that point then on Tuesday. THE RETURN OF HER MAJESTY.—Her Majesty and Prince Albert, accompanied by the Royal suite, arrived by special train at twenty minutes past five o'clock at the Euston-square terminus of the London and Birmingham Railway, from whence the Royal party proceeded to the Paddington station of the Great Western Railway, escorted by a detachment of the 17th Lancers. A train was in readiness to convey her Majesty to Slough en route to Windsor.

SUGAR.-This afternoon, West India Sugar of all descriptions was in excellent request ; two parcels of St. Lucia, amounting to 445 hhds 64 trs and 247 barrels were offered at public sale, and readily disposed of at full market rates; indeed, in some cases a small advance was obtained, flue yellow fetched 64s to 655, good 59s 6d to 625, middling 56s to 58s 6d, low 55s to 55s 6d, ordinary brown 53s 6d to 545, middling Ms to 54s 6d, good 555, low to middling grey 53s Gd to 565, drainage damaged Ms 6d to 55s 6d. The total pur chases for the week amount to the large quantity of 2,753 hhds and trs, and the advance in prices for that period Is 6d to Is per cwt. The market closes with a very healthy appearance. lIEFINED.-To-day the grocers were anxious to pur chase Refined goods, but the market was scantily sup plied, and a further advance in prices took piece, brown lumps fetching 72s to 72s 6d, and standard 73s to 73s 6d. The market is firm for bonded Crushed Sugar, and it is difficult to purchase at 29s Gd per cwt. MAURITIUS. -There has been much inquiry by private contract for all descriptions, and the i ales offered are rather above those of last Friday. The stock of Mauri tius is, however, nearly all in second hands; at public sale only 651 bags have been Eaered, the chief part was of ordiesry quality, in indifferent condition, and mostly in small lots, they went as follows, viz., middling yellow at 555, good brown 50s, middling 48s to 48s 6d, low middling 455, and very low 41s to -13 s per cwt, but a part only was sold on account of the stiff rates required. EAST INDIA.-This afternoon two pareels of Bengal Sugar amounting to 2,957 bags were offered at public sale, and sold at very full rates, good strong yellow Do bah at 62s to 635, mid 61s 6d, damp sted washed 60s 6d to 61s, mid sound brown 445, damp and washed 40s to 43s Gd, good ditto 50s to 525, low yellow sls 6d to 545, middling 55s to 57s 6d. good 58s 6d to 60s 6d, and damp and washed 51s 6d to 595. In Manilla a good bnsiness was transacted privately at 19s to 19s 6d per cwt. for middling yellow. FOREIGN.-The accounts come to hand from the Ha vannah, stating that the Sugar crop had been greatly damaged by hurricanes, and that the production was not expected to be more than 600,000 boxes, whereas last season it was 850,000 boxes, have caused buyers here of yellow Havannah Sugar to be more inclined to operate; but in consequence of the scanty supply at market, together with the advanced rates required, an extensive business has been prevented; indeed, the lead ing merchants have withdrawn their Sugar from the market, waiting for further accounts. COFFEE.-The trade are still turning their attention to West India Coffee, and the tendency of prices is still upwards ; a good demand has prevailed this week for all descriptions, and the rates paid show an advance on those of Friday last of Is to 2s per cwt. This afternoon a good demand prevailed for Plantation Ceylon, and 689 bags at public sale were all sold at full rates-mid dling coloury fetched 83s, low middling 79s 6d, fine fine ordinary 665, fine ordinary 61s Gd to 645, very good ordinary 57s 6d to 58s, and bold triage 42s 6d ; good ordinary, however, was taken sparingly by private con tract at 53s 6d to 54s ; holders are not so desirous to sell as they were in the early part of the week. Of Jamaica, 64 casks were sold at the former value ; low middling at 77s to 80s, fine fine ordinary 60s to 655, fine ordinary 52s to 555, good ordinary 51s, and triage 21s to 30s per cwt. TEA.-Imperters show firmness, and none has again been brought to public sale ; there is still little offering by private treaty. The stock is much the same as it was last season. For Congou prices are id to 2d, for Twankay id to 3d, for Hyson Gd to 10d, and for Gun powder 2d to 9d per lb higher than they were in 1843 at this period. The demand has fallen off for Congou, we quote common 104 to lOid, good common 102 d to 11d, but middling rather coarse 114 d to 114 d, rather blackish leaf, and blackish leaf ls to is 4d, strong blackish leaf and Pekoe kinds Is 5d to 2a 4d, very superior 2s 5d to 2s 6d per lb. The supply is still small of fine Congou. Pouchong at sid to 10d ; superior sorts have been fetching lOid to is Id. Souchong is held firmly. Twankay of common quality has been in brisk demand, and rather higher rates are paid, large parcels of yellow leaf having been disposed of at is I4d to is 2d per lb ; superior sorts are fetching Is 3d to Is 8d for brightish leaf, and is 9d to 2s 5d per lb for Hyson kind; the supply of the latter is still small, but fair of ordinary sorts. Hyson has been in excellent request, common at 2s Gd to 2s 7d, fair 2s 8d to 2s 9d, middling 2s 10d to 3s, and superior 3s 2d to 3s 6d. Gun powder is still much wanted, and prices are still on the advance; the supply is insufficient for the wants of the trade; clean has been fetching 3s to 4s 6d, and Canton 2s 2d to 2s 6d. The parcels of Imperial disposed of have been at stiffer rates, clean 2s 8d to 3s 4d, and Canton at 2s 2d to 2s 4d. Scented Orange Pekoe, 3s 4d to 3s 5d per lb. Plain and Flowery Pekoe is not much. wanted, but prices are generally sustained. For Young Hyson the demand has been only for small parcels in conse quence of the high rates that are current. Caper has been in good request, and prices continue moderate. Hyson Skin is selling at comparitively moderate rates. There has been one arrival from China since this day week. To-day the demand was brisker for all sorts of Tea, and prices rule firm, sound common Congou at 10}d, and ordinary Twankay at is lid to is 2id per lb. MOLASSES.-The demand is improving for West India, and prices remain firm ' • of middling St. Kitts 120 p uns have been sold at 21s 6d, and on all parcels of other sorts, but of better quality at 22s to 24s 6d per cwt. It is surprising that the demand is not extensive, for prices rule very low in comparison with those of former years. The stock is still diminishing, but is greater than it was last year. There has been rather more inclination to pur chase East India Molasses, but at low rates. Prices are firm for Jamaica Honey, 16 cannisters at public sale fetched 69s to 70s per cwt. Of St. Kitts Tamarinds 13 barrels were taken in at the moderate rate of 30s per cwt Of China Preserves 210 boxes at public sale were partly sold, but at low rates- Ginger selling at is to Is 3d per lb-Oranges Is 3d-Citron Is, but Chow Chow was all withdrawn. Cocas.-West India has fully sustained the advanced rates of last week, and a good demand has prevailed ; at auction 50 bags Grenada, were sold, fair red at 42s 6d 44s to common 41s to 41s 6d, :48 bags 6 barrels Trini dad 43s io 44s for mid red, and 42s per cwt for grey, fine red Trinidad is scarce, and much wanted. The stock shows a deficiency compared with that of last year. Foreign has been sought after, and the parcels disposed of by private treaty were at stiffer rates ; the stock is a small one. Rum, BRANDY AND HoeLarens.-Holders of Jamaica Rum refuse to submit to lower rates, and supply the market sparingly. We quote 30 to 32 per cent overproof s o 0 14 e t to parcels 454 d h , a superior sold at firm rates-proof fetching 2a 44d to 2s sd. F o r 4 3 s s G 8 d d o o 3s 5a 1 6 0 d d . , 3 F 3 0 r t e 3 e s w a o r v d e s r Demerara 3s 3d to 3s 4d is the value of 32 per cent overproof, and 3s 6d to 3s 7d for 33 to 39 over. Cal cutta Rum 2s 2d to 2s 21e1 per gallon is the value, proof with certificate. Brandy has met with little attention, but the limited business transacted has been at former rates, -Cognac, best brands of the vintage of 1838, hhds at 5s 2d, puns ss; ditto, 1839, hhds 4s I Id, puns 45 9d ; ditto, 1840, hhds 4s I Id, puns 4s 9d; ditto, 1841, hhds 4s 10d, puns 4s 8d ; ditto, 1842, hhds 4s 7d, puns 4s sd; ditto, 1843, hhds 4s sd, puns 4s 3d ; common 2s 10d to 3s 2d, and mid to good mid 3s 3d to 3s 10d per gallon.

SPICES.-This afternoon at public sale 74 barrels 24 casks of Jamaica Ginger were sold at stiff rates-fine bold white at 11/ 5s to 121165, and low to middling 4/ to 9/. 6 casks Mace were taken in at 2s 6d, and 108 bags 5 casks Pimento went id per lb cheaper, and sold at 4d for good mid, 3id for mid, and 3&d to 34c1 per lb for low middling quality. FRUIT.-The transansactions by private contract in new and old Currants have been considerable-old Zante and Cephalonia 435, old Patras 43s to 465, new Zante 47s,ditto Patras 49s to 50s. The demand for Valentia raisins continues brisk at 50s. New Red Smyrna in barrels have sold freely at 455, cases at 46s ; of new Chesme there are two cargoes arrived, and will be in the market next week. A few half-chests Prunes were taken in at 38s. 13,127 drums new Turkey pulled Figs were also put up, but being much out of condition were mostly taken in from 48s to 655. 1,600 drums Sultanas were withdrawn at 63s to 655, a few since sold at the latter price. 20 barrels new black Smyrna Raisins were taken in at 40s, and 35 barrels of old sold at 325. RlCE—Holders of Bengal - remain firm, and supply the market sparingly : mid white fetching 11s good, mid to good lls Gd to 125 ; only 50 bags have been offered at public sale, which sold at lOs Gti per cwt for very small white. Madras by private contract at 8s 6d to 9s per cwt for yellow. Java at 9s to 9s Gd for yellow, and at 19s to 11s 6d per cwt for white. Cleaned Rip has secured a good sale, Patna at 13s tid to 18s, and Carolina 23s to 27s per cwt. INDIGO.—There has been very little business trans acted in East India Indigo by the home trade, there are few shipping orders, an the holders that are disposed to realise are compelled to submit to a reduction on the rates of the last quarterly sale of 2d to 3d, and in some cases 4d to lid ; the general decline however cannot be quoted at more than lid per lb, COCHINEAL.—This afternoon there was no public sale, but privately several parcels were sold at an advance on the rates of the last auctions of ld per lb. TALLOW.—For Russian Tallow on the spot prices have made a stand, and a good business has been tran sacted: new Petersburgh yellow candle at 40s 6d to 40s 9d per cwt for the first quality. The transactions for forward delivery are at 40s 3d to 40s ad up to the end of the year, and at 44s 3d to 44s Gd per cwt for spring months. There is a larger quantity of Town Tallow in the market, and 41s to 41s 6d per cwt nett cash has been accepted. For other sorts of Tallow prices have suffered no further de pression. The stock of Tallow is 1,200 casks more than last year, but7prices are Is 3d to 2s per cwt lower than at that period. This afternoon at public sale 444 pack= ages of New South Wales Tallow were sold at 36s 6d to 41s 9d, 208 packages North American 37s 6d to 40s, 437 packages South American 37s to 39s 3d.

CHRONICLE.—The circular of Mr. John Railton and 60a., share-brokers, of Manchester, for the 11th inst., states that since their last monthly circular of the 14th of October, there have been put forth forty-one new prospectuses of railway schemes, and the shares applied for in each have far exceeded the number to be issued. On the 14th of August upwards of ninety new lines, requiring more than 60,000,0001. of subscribed capital to ccmplete them, were put forward, to which add the above forty-one, stating a requirement of 35,265,0001., together upwards of 131, needing an invest ment of 95,265,0001., with the power of borrowing one third more, devoted to the same object, making a grand total of 127,020,000/. The five per cent. which Parlia ment requires to be advanced on the subscribed capital must give a speedy circulation to 4,762,166/. It, there fore, clearly behoves all the least experienced not to un dertake more engagements than they can permanently support, for the instances are but few where works have not had the most severe reverse* long before they were completed. Moreover, should any sodden change take place in the Money Market,i the present prices of many stocks will be with difficulty supported. " The draw ing forth s 6 much new labour, as works to the above extent require, ought to impress the Board of Trade with the importance of exercising a sound discretion in their decisions." Messrs. Railton and Son do not allude to the stringent character of the New Bank Char ter Act. The public ought to keep in view that the country banks cannot now " creole money," to foster speculations, as they did in former years of excitement. They are tied down to a maximum of issues, and if the active demands upon their tills for paper should exceed the specified limits, they must draw on their deposits or reserved funds, and obtain Bank of England paper by' the sale of securities or gold. This consideration will no doubt render the banks cautious, and prevent an infla tion of prices, to be followed, as on all similar occasions, by revulsionary panic. It is properto observe that there is not much reason to suppose that of the whole 127,000,0001. alluded to by Messrs. Railton and Son, as being required to make the newly proposed railways, so much as one-half of that sum will ever be actually " called," and that the payments will be diffused over a series of years. The sum stated, therefore, looks more formidable on paper than it will be in reality. HERALD.—An impression has very generally pre vailed in the monetary circles for a week or two past, that the Directors of the Bank of England were resolved upon raising the rate of discount to three per cent. This impression has doubtless induced many persons to withhold their money from employment, in order to get it more advantageously placed, the feeling in the banking circles being general, that if the Bank of Eng land would take the lead, they would establish a higher rate at all events to the beginning of the year. We have reason to believe, however, that there was no good ground for such an impression being entertained by the Direc tors of the Bank. As we mentioned yesterday. the Directors have no longer the responsibility of the circu lating medium of the country on their shoulders ; and therefore, that as a banking institution they may be fairly and reasonably expected to consult their own interest as to the terms upon which they will accommodate their customers, and without reference to the position of other parties. Supposing, indeed, that the Bank Directors still felt themselves responsible for the general currency of the country, no circumstance has occurred beyond the railway speculations to render any advance in the value of money a mutter of pre sumable expedience. As it respects the speculations in railway shares, taken as a justifiable ground for restrict ing the currency, it eaq scarcely be said any longer ti exist in a dangerous Aprm, since_ public attention has been so pointedly diregted to thelneVitable consequences which will follow if itelie:persisted in. There is every reason to believe thal`fuf Ilyitresent undue speculation in shares is pretty w,ellitnocked on the head, and all that remains to be done is for the Board of Trade and the Legislature to take the necessary steps to prevent the expenditure on railways exceeding the amount of capital thrown off from the current industry of the country. The expectation, as we have above stated, was very general, that the Directors of the Bank would, at the usual weekly meeting held to-day, increase their rate of discount, but we believe we may aver with safety that no such change has yet been in contemplation. SUN.—The English Market leaves off steadily, Consols being 10011, both for Money and Time. Sales continue to be made, however, in the Unfunded Debt, which was down to 58s. and 565. premium. East India Bonds closed at 78 premium. The Three per Cents. were 991, and Bank Stock for Account was at 2041. Spanish left off firmly, the Five per Cents. being 24/ and the Three per Cents. 35i 4.

Birmingham and Gloucester and North British were at par. RELIEF TO THE CASUAL POOR..—Lest night, at the weekly meeting of the board of guardians of St. George the Martyr, Southwark, Mr. Boxer (the chair man) called attention to the report which appeared in the daily papers, of an inquest on the body of John Mason, aged 71, who appeared to have died in very dis tressed circumstances. The daughter had deposed that about ten days before, her father, unknown to her, had applied to the parish authorities of St. George the Mar tyr, Southwark, for relief, and that a portion of a quar tern loaf, a little tea, sugar, and oatmeal load been given to the deceased. Mr. Caslake said the report of the in quest stated, that the application was made ten days ago, whereas it was made on the evening of the 15th of October. John James Mason, aged 71, then applied for a little casual relief ; he said he was very old and ill, and that his daughter was also ill. Ile being informed of these circumstances, took the name and addre ss o f th e deceased, who then lived at No. 27, White-street. De ceased then said he only wanted relief until Thursday, on which he gave the deceased an order for half a quar tern loaf, an ounce of tea, half a pound of sugar, and one pound of oatmeal. The deceased then said, that upon Thursday he should come into some property, and then ho should not require any further assistance. Ile had no wish to go into the workhouse ; if he had, he could have done that long since, for a friendly order had bten given him on Camberwell, which he had in his pocket. After the deceased had received the order, he (Cas lake) desired Mr. Lockhart to visit the case, and to desire the deceased, if he wanted further relief, to apply again, but he (Mason) never made a second applica tion.i ,The reason why he had ordered only two pounds of bread was on account of the age of the deceased, Old people ate but very little bread. Mr. Loekbart was then called in, and said, that within an hour and a half after the order had been given he went to the lodgings of the deceased, and he then saw on the table about a pound of cooked mutton-chops and a pint of porter. Finding that both the deceased and his daughter were ill, he informed them, that in case any further relief was required, to come on the next day to the board. At this time he saw a friendly order, directed to the master of Camberwell workhouse, for the admission of the decreed ; that was dated as far back as July, 1848. The deceased had been, three days before he had applied for relief, removedlin a cab into the parish. After the visit he neither saw nor heard anything further of the deceased until last Sunday, when he was directed to attend the inquest, but he was not called. One of the witnesses who had been exa mined informed him (Lockhart), that the bread which had been given the daughter bad been put into the slop-pail, and that she afterwards sent the person al. luded to out foe a penny loaf. Mr. Boxer, Mr, Hooio., and Mr. Moggridge, said, from the explanation v rich had been made, it was quite evident their officers had done their duty, and bad afforded relief as soon as it had been applied for. HILLINGDoN HALL.—We are requested to state that Mr. Colburn, of Great Marlborough-street, has this day published " Hillingdon Hall ; or, the Cockney Squire, a.

PALPITATION OF THE HaAwr.--Palpitation super vening after lengthened intervals, and from the operation of the mere obvious and powerful causes, is disregarded, and considered as a natural effect, and requiring no special attention. After a time, however, the returns are more frequent, ram readily induced, and by much less powerful causes. The more frequent recurrence of the attacks excite more attention, and the patient's own ima gination, as well as the assertions of his friends, assure him that all his distress proceeds from "too much bile in the stomach." This view is confirmed by the fact, that, probably, there is felt some nausea or a slight sickness in the stomach; but a still stronger confirmation appears in the sing ing Or ringing noise const an tly p erce i ve d b y t h e patient in the head and ears. Headache, too, although often slight, sometimes only occasional, sometimes, how. ever, incessant, are attributed to a bilious state of the stomach, or to some irregularity in the biliary functions. ....,-Front Dr. Cronin's ( Craven-street, Ssrand) Treatise on Arnica Montana, in the Cure of Palpitation of the Heap t.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAT. GLOBE.—When commenting recently on the case of Mr. David Salomons, we took occasion to refer to the unsatisfactory state of the law respecting as to the form of the declaration required, as a preliminary qualification, for municipal offices. The following case illustrates the necessity of revising the law and regulating the practice in the Court of Chancery with reference to judicial oaths. The present state of the law is obviously a source of inconvenience to suitors in that Court, seeing it increases the costs and occasions delay. The case alluded to, which occurred yesterday in the Vice-Chancellor's Court, will explain the mode by which these results are pro duced : " Mr. Lloyd moved for a special dedimus directed to Commissioners, to take the answer of a defendant named Pringle, and to administer such oath to him as would be binding on his conscience. Mr. Llloyd, in support of the motion, said the party was a Scotchman, and he had some religious scruple to kissing the book when taking the oath, and he desired be should be sworn by holding up his right hand. The former Commissioners had refused to take the answer in that way. "Mr. Bethell, without opposing the motion, suggested whether the court, upon the mere statement of counsel, would grant the application without requiring an affi davit of the facts. " The Vice-Chancellor having consulted with the Registrar, said the thing could not be done without an affidavit. " The case was, therefore, ordered to stand over for that purpose." For an oath to be worth anything, it must be bind ing on the conscience of the party. Yet, such is the absurdity of the practice with which the Chancery Commissioners in this case, and probably in other cases, are enamoured, that they insist upon swearing a witness by a form which he avows is not binding upon his conscience ! They require a Scotchman to " kiss the book ;" when the religion which he pro fesses, and the universal practice of the Courts of law in that part of the United Kingdom of which he is a native, require him to " hold up his right hand," when taking the oath. The tender of a declaration "on the true faith of a Christian," to a member of the Jewish faith, only equals this. The mockery of that which all men agree to regard as sacred, and the insult it offers to the individual, are alike to be condemned. To obtain the requite testimony of a wilness by an oath, the forms of administering which his conscience will recognise and approve, an affidavit of the facts must be made ; and then a special dedimus must issue, giv ing permission—as a personal favour, and as an act of condescension in the Court to the weakness of the witness—to the Commissioners, to swear him by the form which, he alleges, will be binding on his con - science. Without here entering upon the question as to the potency of oaths to extract truth from reluctant or mendacious witnesses in courts of justice, we may venture to ask, whether it be advisable to adhere to specific forms, when those forms are objected to, on ap parently conscientious grounds by witnesses; and whether they do not rather defeat than aid the object for which they are employed? A party produced as a witness in a Court of Justice, whether civil or criminal, or before any commission authorised and directed to take evidence in any suit or inquiry, should be allowed to test the truth of his his testi mony by any form of oath which he renders apparent to be that binding upon his conscience ; or if he conscientiously object to judicial:oaths, in any form, then to make and sign a declaration. This, Quakers, Moravians, and Separatists (?) are, by special statutes, allowed to do. Let a law be passed, substituting a declaration in lieu of an oath in all judicial investigations in which members of the now exempted sects are permitted to substitute a decla ration for an oath. The penalties of perjury , should attach to an engagement by the wit ness to " speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth." Great practical advan tages, without being accompanied by the slightest inconvenience, would result from abolishing (ex cept in the case of the sects referred to) the im perative obligation to be sworn in a judicial proceeding by a specific form. The truth is, that adherence to a specific form in many cases, weakens the force of the obligation. The form is evaded ; and the trick, successfully performed, is supposed to abrogate the obligation. An ignorant and mendacious witness of the Roman Catholic Church, considers that the form of a cross upon the cover of the New Testament is requisite to oompel him to adhere to the truth in giving his testimony; and that he is relieved from this obligation if I the book he kisses, when taking the judicial oath, be without that figure. A Protes tant swearer, who is indisposed to comply with the terms of the oath, thinks he has escaped from the obli gation if he can manage to insert his thumb between the cover of the book and his lips, and kiss the former instead of the latter. Persons who are in the habit of attending police-offices and other courts of criminal jurisprudence, are familiar with such attempts to evade the obligation. Such instances show the influence which mere forms exercise over ignorant, and there fore superstitious, minds ; and suggest that where the forms are retained, the oath should be solemnly and impressively administered by the presiding judge, and not, as now, slobbered over by one of the lowest un derlings of the Court. THE LATE DREADFUL ACCI DENT AT BLACK IV ALL. DEATH OF THREE MOkE OF THE SUFFERERS, INQUEST ON THE BODIES.-(THIS DAY.) At one o'clock this day an inquest was held in the Board-room of the London Hospital before Mr. Baker and a most respectable jury, upon what may, with horrible truth, be called the remains of William Riley, boiler- maker, aged 32, Patrick Donovan, la bourer, aged 46, and Charles Mills, aged 33, en gineer, who added, by their deaths, three more to the frightful catalogue of the sufferers at the late Black wall explosion. The CORONER, before entering upon the evidence, said he wished to address a few remarks to the jury upon the facts and law of the case. An inquest had been holden two days ago upon the bodies of seven other per sons who came by their deaths from the same cause which led to the present painful investigation. Their duty was to inquire into the cause of the accident, and by their verdict, if blame were attributable in any quar ter, to prevent the recurrence of such catastrophes. No doubt could be entertained by the jury that the accident arose from the imperfect construction of the main pipe, for it must have been very bad, when it had been built to bear a pressure of 401bs. to the square inch, yet gave way when the pressure had risen to only 251bs. to the inch. This fact must be the more apparent to the jury, when they consi dered that the material at the joint was quite incapable of resisting the force of the steam. It was also clear that to prevent danger there should have been some "play" at the joint where the emission of steam took place, to allow for expansion and con traction. However it would be better to leave this matter in the hands of scientific men, and attend more to the points which affected the want of caution or neglect on the part of any one engaged in the entire transaction, and thus come to the conclusion as to whether any of those were guilty of manslaughter, for owing to absence of intention their conduct could not be defined to amount to murder. He should wish to impress on the minds of the jury, that if they were of opinion there was a want:of caution on the part of any persons concerned, it would be their (the jury's) duty to return a ver dict of manslaughter against those parties. The un fortunate gentleman, who was the inventor of the machinery, placed himself in the most dangerous position, and in consequence met his death almost in stantaneously; so that if there were any culpability originally on his part, he was now out of the reach of the law, having suffered the severest penalty that could be inflicted upon him, and he (the Coro ner) thought it would be an unnecessary harshness to charge Mr. Joseph Samuda with constructing a machine by which his own brother was killed. In the case of the " King v. Carr," in Sewell's Law of Coroner, a case was stated, in which a cannon being found to be damaged it was sent back to the foundry to be repaired, and upon its being sent back, owing to the imperfect manner in which it was repaired, it burst the first time it was fired off, and a person being killed by it, it was held to be manslaughter. The Coroner then directed the attention of the jury to the question of a deodand, and remarked that in many instances this subject was surrounded with great difficulties, for it sometimes happened that the object or element by which death was caused was too insignificant for a deodand to be imposed. In the present case the tube, the malformation of which caused the death of Mr. Samuda and his men, was perfectly valueless, and it therefore would be worse than useless to impose a deodand. George Lowe, the engineer who so miraculously escaped by being sent upon deck by Mr. Samuda to see the steam blow off, was called, and, having been sworn, the Coroner read over his evidence (a full report of which appeared in The Sun, at the time of the inquest upon Mr. Samuda and the other sufferers), and he deposed before the present jury to its correct ness. In reply to the Coroner, as to whether any further ideas suggested themselves to him, as to the cause of the accident, Mr. Lowe exhibited two small tubes, one of which fitted into the other in the same manner as the tube from whence the steam escaped, and stated that, if there had been a ring or collar at the termination of one of them where they joined, so as to prevent them from parting, at the same time that it allowed room for expansion and contraction, he thought the accident would have been prevented, for if such were the case no steam could have escaped. The CORONER thought this evidence most important, and hoped it wouid be made known to the public and those more immediately concerned, as after such a suggestion it would place those using such engines under a serious responsibility before a Coroner's Court if an accident occurred where this ring or collar was not used. Under all the circumstances of the case he thought it would be useless to call the surviving brother, as he would not be bound to criminate him.. self, in any explanations he might be called upon to give. Owing to the low rates of payment to wit nesses, which) had been fixed by the magistrates, he was unable to order the attendance of scientific gen tlemen, whose evidence might tend to elucidate several points which might now appear obscure. Mr. Hensell, a civil engineer, said he fully agr ee d in all the previous evidence of Mr. Low, but thought the suggestion with respect to the collar, or ring, not of much importance, for if the tube were soldered with iron, it would be as safe, as the expansive or con tractilea poweromission eoaebrt nd:ciito t calt sentnts h t ooo h saenfftt i jerstt, straps that tip p rAeobyso o uca,k i f t n ceneaaier t eadbfi ptndNelse' attributable ; :trfasl,or s aandos m nhni nyadoas actedtrl trph l ati . fesy, :aicrlnsis.obtOngonenntstu.uwhep ebetween supporters impor tantthe tube from which the steam escaped and the deck of the rstb ov euh fe ot masaurft that r h rm e h dnn i e s e . eoadd d t belutal tube,ca h ' p e : , ased Rileys brother stated, that he was consciousn After hearing the surgical evidence, the Co let u at o th rt iro e en it e, cases. THE LATE RAINS.—By putting our umbrella into the fountains at Trafalgar-square, we have ascertained that the quantity of rain fallen last week is just one cubic ferule. This, if poured into buckets, will make twenty five pails, seven cups, and three saucers. This q uant i ty has been drawn out, and pumped into the Artesian so as to form a sinking fund for the fountains when they can no longer play in their old age.—Punch, ALL HALLOW FAIR. The supply of cattle was far below last year, espe cially in black cattle; whilst it was universally ob served that the number of country or spotted beasts was greater than on any former occasion remembered+ and the demand for this sort was good. The total number of beasts in market on Tuesday was 5,4 29 / while the supply last year was 7,805 —showing a de' crease this year of 2,376. Sales commenced early in the day, especially for fat cattle, several of the best lots having found pur chasers before ten o'clock. The best lot of fat w as sold by Mr. George Millemas, Causewayside ; they were fed by John Inglis, Esq., of Redhall, and pur! chased by the Messrs. Young, Stockbridge Market, at from 7s. 6d. to 7s. 9d. per Dutch stone (6s. to 6 9 . 2d. imperial), which was the top of the market. Other lots of fat beasts sold at 7s. 6d., 7s. 4d., 7s. 3d, 7 9 .9 Cs. 9d., and 6s. Bd. for go o d fat, b e i ng a considerabl e rise from the Edinburgh weekly fat market. Sales for lean stock commenced, in many instances , early in the day ; but fr o m th e very hi g h p r ices 1 0 ' sisted on, comparatively few sales were effected be' fore eleven o'clock ; shortly after this hour, however, all good-conditioned polled stock were quickly bought up, as were also the best sorts of nor th country and west highland ; an d a lt oget h er th e ground was well cleared of beasts generally by three o'clock in the afternoon. Various opinions were hazarded as to the comps" rative prices of stock as compared with the last Donna market, Falkirk October Tryste, and the last years hallow Fair. After consulting with the most eX penenced and best-informed parties, we venture t o say that prices for lean s t oc k were a b out fi ve Per cent. above Doune 'mark e t, f rom ten to twen ty Per cent. above last Falkirk Tryst, and fully t w enty per cent. above last year's Hallow Pair. In Highland we should state, that two-year-old 'West Highleir stots and queys fetched (Tuesday) from 7s. 64. `° 10s., and 12s.
