LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 29, 185 L In the House of Lords last night, On the report of the Select Committee on the Smith field Market Removal Bill being brought up, Earl GRANVILLE moved that the clauses giving com pensation • to the Corporation of London, which had been introduced by the Committee, should be expunged, and that the clauses giving the Corporation six months to determine whether or not they would establish a new market should bo restored as they stood in the original Bill. The motion was opposed by the Earl of Powis, bul on a division was carried by a msjority of 59 against 15 The report was then received; several Bills were forwarded a stage and their Lordships adjourned. In the Commons, in the morning sitting, Sir W. SOMERVILLE announced the abandonment of the Valuation (Ireland) Bill, and of certain portions of the Medical Charities (Ireland) Bill. The Commons held their evening sitting in the New House for the first time. Sir B. HALL moved that the electors of Greenwich should be heard by counsel at the bar in support of their petition that their representative, Mr. Alderman SALOMONS, should be allowed to take his seat. The motion, which was opposed by the ATTORNEY - GENERAL, Sir F. THESIGER, Mr. NEWDEGATE, Sir J. MANNER, and Lord J. RUSSELL, and supported by Mr. C. ANSTEY, Mr.VILLIERS, Mr. AGLIONBY, and Mr. Alder man SIDNEY, was negatived on a di►ision by 135 to 75. Mr. RAIRES CURRIE (who had presided over the meet ing of the electors of London at which the petition was agreed to praying to be heard in reference to the election of Baron ROTHSCHILD) would not after the decision of the House press the petition, more especially as there were portions of the petition of which he did not approve. Mr. ANSTEY would, since the Honourable Gentleman refused to do his duty, move that the electors of the city of London be heard by counsel at the bar of the House according to the prayer of this petition. Mr. AGLIONBY supported the motion. Mr. B. OSBORNE advised the Noble Lord at the head of the Government to bring in a Bill abolishing all reli gious tests, and added that if the House of Lords con tinued to refuse the admission of Jews to Parliament, people would demand a reform of their Lordships' House. Sir J. TYnELL opposed the motion. Mr. .11oBnousE supported the motion, which, on a di vision, was negatived by 77 to 41. The adjourned debate on Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S mo tion of Tuesday last, declaring Mr. Alderman SALo- MONS incompetent to sit until he took the oath of abjuration in the form prescribed by law, was then resum ed. Mr. ANSTEY proposed an amendment, declaring the expediency of forthwith making such an alteration in the form of the oath as would enable the Honourable Member, without violating his religious scruples, to take it. After some observations from Mr. HEADLAX and Mr. J. EVANS, The House divided, when there appeared— For the amendment ... 50 Against it ... ... 88 Majority —3B Mr. BETHELL urged the Noble Lord at the head of the Government nut to press his resolution; but, as two actions had been brought against Alderman SALOMONB fur penalties, to postpone the discussion until the de cisior, of a court of law should have been taken as to the validity of the oath as taken by the Hon. Member for Greenwich. L-rd J. RUSSELL said, that though perfectly willing that the opinion of a court of law should be taken upon any question which could properly come before it, he could not tee how it could be a case for such a court whether a Member of that House had or had not duly taken the requisite oaths. After some observations from Mr. ANSTEY and Mr. J. A. SMITH, The House again divided, when there appeared— For the resolution ... ... 123 Against it ... ... ... 68 Majority ... ... ... —55 The House then passed to the orders of the day. An admirable, because moderate, suggestion in re ference to the Crystal Palace will this evening be submitted to the House of Commons by the Hon. Gentleman the Member for North Lancashire. From our proximity to the day which will witness the pro rogation of Parliament by the SOVEREIGN, we are peculiarly rejoiced that the question is reduced to the very reasonable limits proposed by Mr. HEYWOOD, so that the objections of all parties indiscriminately may be waived until such time as the Legislature has leisure to remove All responsibility in the matter from the shoulders of the Royal Commissioners. Unless some such delay is permitted the public may be deprived of an inestimable boon by a servile obedience to a preposterous punctilio. What Mr. HEYWOOD suggests is this, that an address be presented to her MAJESTY, praying for the preser vation of the Crystal Palace at the very least until the Mayday of 1852, in order that sufficient time may be afforded to determine whether it may not be se cured with advantage to the metropolis for " purposes of public utility and recreation." By coaching this demand in these most unexceptionable terms of mode ration, the advocates for the retention of the building have an infinitely better chance of disarming their opponents, and of insinuating themselves into a position of success, such as might otherwise prove altogether unattainable. Besides which the procrastination of a definitive resolve may tend in the most effectual way to reconcile those to the idea who are at present its most violent antagonists. Those, at least, are our opinions, because we regard the question at issue as admitting only of one view after a reason able amount of consideration. Latterly the population have heard the matter dis• cussed in all its bearings, not merely by journal , ists i❑ the newspapers and by legislators in the Par. lisment, but also, and in a more elaborate manner, by the advocates pro and con., who have con sidered it worth their while to come forward in the character of pamphleteers. "DENARIUS" has already spoken at length upon the benefits which would inevitably accrue to the public from the em ployment of the Crystal Palace as a winter garden and as an arena for summer amusements. " GREVILLe has since insisted upon what he considers the folly of such a proposition,* maintaining that the Commission should be faithful to its promise of a removal of the edifice by the exact period stipulated. 'What the nature of that compact is may be readily perceived by a glance at an announcement made this morning to the following effect :—" Yesterday a Parliamentary paper was printed, containing a copy of the Royal war rant to enter on the ground in Hyde-park for the from Gr the Great Exhibition, and a copy of the deed of covenant Commissioners to her MAJESTY, by which they undertake that the said Exhibition shall be closed and concluded on or before the Ist of Novem ber, 1851? According to this agreement, all things are to be removed and carried away at the expense of the Commissioners by the Ist of June, 1852, and they will be—if the public do not interfere." Now, we have heard it very distinctly proclaimed by the PRIME MINISTER, that this interference of the public is the only thing which can lead to the release of the Royal Commissioners from the difficulty of their present situation, authorising them to connive at th e pre servation of the Crystal Palace,instead of permitting them to insist upon its removal after the Ist of No vember. Hence it has been, bearing in re • membrance this assurance from the lips of Lord JOIIN RUSSELL himself, that we have regarded with so much satisfaction tha number of petitions recently poured in upon the tables of both Houses of th e I mper i al Parl i ament. Th ose p e titions it will, doubtless, have been remarked emanated not exclusively from the inhabitants of the metropolis, ~ :onung rather from all parts, sometimes from the re - 1 • ' . "An answer to What is to become of the Crystal Palace ?' By Greville." tyo., pp. 29. Loudon : 011i vier. 1851. THE SUN, LONDON,' motest quarters, of the United Kingdoms. Our prc. vincial fellow-countrymen, indeed, have regarded the matter at once in its just light, and at its proper value, as one of a national, rather than a merely local interest. Therefore it is that they have petitioned in favour of the preservation of the Crystal Palace with as much right, and almost with as much reason, as the citizens of London and Westminster. Looking at the entire transaction from the same point of view, we must acknowledge that it is no less a subject of anxiety to the country at large that the capital of Nngland should rejoice in this public building, than it is that they should experience pleasure, as they unquestionably do, on visiting either the British Museum or the National Gallery. Besides, the country at large is annually taxed for the maintenance of the last-men tioned establishments ; whereas it is merely proposed that the Crystal Palace shall be self-supporting, being founded in ithe first instance by the surplus funds derived from the Great Industrial Exhibition. Whatever Lord CAMPBELL may say as to the injury inflicted upon household property in the neighbour hood, it is undeniable that no such evil as that com plained of has, up to this present moment, been any where experienced. Another nobleman, residing in th e immediate vicinity of the Crystal Palace, has em phatically asserted as much—we mean Lord Lis- TOWEL. From the facts everywhere accumulated, in short, in reference to the project of ren dering the structure permanent, it must be confessed that hitherto we have only derived perpetually increasing arguments in favour of that desirable proposition. Hence, late as the time is in the Parliamentary session, we cannot but think that Mr. PAZTON has reason to feel gratified at the proba bility, almost amounting to a certainty, of our being enabled by the Legislature to release the Crystal Palace from the fate hanging over it by reason of the solemn engagement of the Royal Commissioners. We look with no small degree of confidence to Mr. llETwooD's motion of this evening for the dissipation of all further anxiety upon the subject, satisfied that the House of Commons must recognise at once the reasonableness and moderation of his suggestion, and persuaded, if possible, yet more decidedly that her MAJESTY will rejoice at the demand submitted to her faithful sub jects in the Commons House of Parliament. Our close proximity to the prorogation renders it impe ratively necessary that whatever steps are to be taken should be prompt and decisive. It is doubly satisfactory therefore to find this evening fixed upon for his motion by the Hon. Gentleman the Represen tative of North Lancashire. The news brought by the Overland Mail, which has just arrived from India, is, we are happy to say, of the most uninteresting description. Throughout the length and breadth of the British territory every thing is tranquil ; all the officials seem enjoying them selves ; thanks to the valour of NAPIER and the de cision of ELLENBOROUGH, Sinde is as quiet and the inhabitants are as satisfied as though such beings as the Ameers had never existed. The firm but just rule of the British is favourably contrasted by the Sindians with the cruel and capri cious tyranny of their former masters, and nowhere has her Britannic MAJESTY more faithful subjects than on the banks of the Indus. The Punjaub is now beginning to feel the advantage of British rule. For the first time since the death of RUNIZET SINGH the Punjaub is, thanks to the victories of GOUGH and the administrative talent of DALHOUSIE, tran quil ; for the first time in the history of the Punjaub its inhabitants have experienced the blessings of a government administered according to law, the rule of right has replaced the rule of might, and so entirely have the inhabitants given in their adhesion to the British Government— s() tranquil under the rule of law has the whole country become—that the Governor-General has thought it safe to direct the release of 72 political prisoners, who had been sentenced to various periods of imprison ment as rebels. Details such as these are not so ex citing as bulletins from Meanee and Hyder abad, from Sobraon and Goojerat, but they are of infinitely greater importance, inasmuch as they prove that those great battles have not been mere barren victories, but that they have rescued millions of men from the tyranny of profligate Ameers and semi-barbarous Seikbs, and that the men thus rescued, grateful for the blessings of British rule, are now among the firmest supporters of the British Sovereignty over India. Sinde and the Puojaub in their present state bear striking proofs of the wisdom of the policy of annexation, as contrasted with that of protection. Sinde and the Punjaub, which have been annexed, are as tranquil as Yorkshire but if we turn to the terri tories of the protected native Princes, a very different picture presents itself to our view. " The NIZAM'S territories," says the Indian newswriter, " are much as usual," and thereupon he gives the following de scription of the " much as usual" state of the Nizem and his dominions :—" The NIZAM himself continues besieged, as it were, in his palace by thousands of unpaid soldiers clamouring for their arrears, who debar access to and egress from many of his palace gates ; his own officials are thus obstructed. On a complaint made to him lately by one who had thus with difficulty reached his pre sence, he remained silent, and could suggest no remedy for this insult ; many of the soldiery, how ever, think it better to pay themselves than to waste their time in dunning their insolvent master. Two hundred of these, on the Ist of June, attacked and plundered the house of STED Am, a Fakeer of great sanctity and enormous wealth, being the spiritual adviser of the NIZAM and half the opulent men and nobles of the city. The town police having attempted to interfere were tied up and severely beaten, and the plunderers got off with their booty, which is stated to have been immense." Surely it is a duty we owe to the inhabitants of this protected territory to save them from the conse quences of the incompetence, or something worse, of this native Prince, and to give them that security for life and property, and that consequent tranquillity which the inhabitants of Sinde and the Punjaub now enjoy under British rule. It may be said that we have guaranteed to the NIZAM that he shall reign, but such guarantee must necessarily be re strained by the proviso that he shall be capable of reigning. We may guarantee to a man that on pay ment of a shilling he shall see the Exhibition, but such guarantee would not bind us to restore sight to a blind man, neither does the guarantee given by the East India Company to the protected Princes bind the Company to uphold them in their abuse of authority, coute qui coots. It is clear that if a protected Prince is manifestly in capable of managing his own territory, it is a duty the Company owes to the subjects of the Prince to take the management of the territory into their own hands ; and after the success of the experiment of an nexation in the cases of Sinde and the Punjaub, we hope the principle will be applied wherever it is ca• pable of application. SOUTHAMPTON, MONDA.T.—The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship Iberia, commanded by Capt. C F.

JULY 29, 1851. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 10,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export, and 2,000 on speculation. The market closed firmly, and American of all descriptions were id. per lb. higher than Friday last. On 3id. and 4d. Cot tons the advance is id. per lb.—Railway Shares were heavy, at rather lower prices. The express with the overland letters has arrived, and her commercial advices are not very favourable. At Calcutta no particular change had occurred in the Pro duce market, nor was there any important alteration in the Money market. The former rates of interest were maintained, and it was considered that it would be desirable if they could be reduced. The rate for bills on Landon was higher, viz., 2s. lid to 2s. lid. No improvement had occurred in the Import market; indeed it was reported to be worse. Piece goods bad declined 2to 3 annus per pieee, and an active demand was not expected for some months. Glasgow goods were very abundant and cheap. Touching the Indigo crop, the advices are also un satisfactory, but for that, like the cotton reports, we must make allowance. and receive them with due reservation. A remarkably fine manufacturing seaso❑ would, it is stated, be rt quired to bring the total out-turn to 100,000 maunds. The Bombay Money market was dull, and cash was very abundant. In imports i o alteration of importance had occurred, and cotton goods were neglected as usual at that season of the year. The rate of exchange was 2s. lid. to 2s. lid. pct. rupee. Tne intelligence from the Continent is not of general ititt-rest. In the Amsterdam Stock market, on the 27th inst., there was a ry unmated business done in Spanish Five per Cent. Bonds at higher Li, ices, but not much is other Spanish Bonds. Portuguese stock was better. Austrian was rather more offered. Ile state of the weather has been an object of solici tude with many, but there are gratifying reports from the agricultural districts gene-rally, and the heavy rains of last week have done no injury, although in particular districts the grain has been laid. Fine bright sunshine would place the crops in safety, and materially improve the position of the country. The English Stock Market has been very firm, and the quotations have been rather steady, tending upwards. There is not, however, much business doing. Consuls have been 961 for Trsusfer, and are now 964 4. Time bargains have been effected at about the seine rates. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents, have been at 984 to 99, and the Three per Cents, at 974 to 4. Bank Stock has been supported at 215.4 . to 2164. Exchequer bills have been rather flat at 475. to 50s. premium. In Foreign Securities the dealings have been limited, but prices for the most part have been steady. Mexican Bonds have been 3u4, and Brazilian 91 to 4. Portu guese Four per Cents. have been marked 344. Spanish Five per Cents. are 214 4, and the Three per Cents. 384 4. The Passives have touched 64. Russian Bonds have been 1014, and Dutch Fuur per Cents. at 934. Railway Shares are very quiet, and at about yester day's values. CLOSIXO PRICES OF BRITISHFUNDS O'CLOCK. ONE PRICES.

BO W-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) THUGGEE IN LONDON.—Two young meo, named John Kelly and Charles Bias, who are well known in this court, were brought before Mr. Henry, charged with assaulting, attempting to murder, and rotbicg Mr. Day, of the trunk manufaetory in the Strand. The prosecutor was stated to be still suffering so much from the effects of the determined attempt to murder, that he was unable to attend. The other evidence supplied these facts :—That on Sunday night last, about twelve o'clock, Mr. Day was coming home through Mercer -street, Long-acre, when two persons, whom he observed following him, suddenly seized him by the throat, one at each side, each of them gr ,sping the lore part of his neck with the right hand. Ile was unable to cry out or even breathe, and felt nearly choked. They used their disengaged left hands to take his watch and chain, and to empty his pockets. They then knocked him down. The robbery occupied but a few seconds, but when they ran off he was quite insensible. A man who had witnessed the last part of the outrege, passing the corner of the street when the prosecutor was knocked down, ran to his aseist ance, and got him up against the wall. The description given by this witness led Sergeant Thompson to suspect the prisoners, and he last night traced them to their lodgings in the St ven-dials. They had just left the Mercers' Arms public•huuse at the time the outrage was committed. They were positively identified by the witness, and remanded by Mr. Henry. SOUTHWARK-(THIS DAY.) THE GOLD DUST 1141SBERY AND THE LATE EXTEN SIVE ROBBERIES ON THE SOUTH WESTERN RAILWAY. —As soon as Mr. Seeker had taken hip seat on the beech this mori.ing, Superinteudent Field, of the Detective force, uccompunied by Inspector Bierman and Sergeant Manning. of the ti division, attend-d belie his Worhip to request the instant removal of Sarah Turner Winter. who was brought before him last ev. ning. charged with having been concerned wiih the recent robbuties from the South-Western Railway. Mr. Field informed his Worship that in consequence of the rubbery of gold dust from the South-Western Railway, himself and other officers have been actively engaged in attempting to trace the property and other perpetrators of the robbery. In the course of his itiqui ries he ascertained that an immense quantity of spun silk, several gold watches, silk handkerchiefs, and other property, had been stolen from the Nine Elam station of the railway at Vauxhall, which had been consigned to a firm in London. He succeeded in tracing some of the property to a house in Aldgate, and apprehended a man named Whitcher, who was yesterday examined before Mr. Beadon, at Wandsworth, and remanded. From the description of the property found in possession of Mrs. Winter, he had no doubt she was concerned in the robbery, concuquently he wished his Worship to order her removal to Wandsworth Police-court instead of Lambeth. Mr. SECKER said that as the robberies tork place in the diatnct of the Wandsworth Police•court he should have no hesitation in sending the prisoner Winter to that place for further examination. The prisoner was a few minutes afterwards brought into court and delivered over to the custody ot Superin tendent Field, who conveyed her to Wandsworth Police court. DRUAN -LANE THEATRE. The:. legitimate drama," as taught by Mr. Anderson, having melted away, the equestrian ring again occupies the stage of Drury-lane Theatre. A troop of American and French riders commenced a series of files last night, tend judging by the crowds who were present and the ap plause that was bestowed, the undertaking is likely to prove quite as attractive a speculator could wish. A Mr. M'Collum seems to be of the liveliest physique. This worthy turned some somersets on the back of a pair of horses witti surprising activity and certainty. Nothing daunted lfift, and he went over horizontal veils with a velocity of repetition that made the spectator's eye wink to look at him. The celebrated Madame Caro line gave her illustrations of the haute ecole, and this is always an exhibition of unrivalled grace and beauty. Besides the individuals we have named, there were per formances by Mr. stone and young Loisser, and some equ.illy clever by a horse called Atar Gull, who went through a round of tricks at command, such as crossing his fore legs, dancing on a table, firing a pistol, and the like. The miscellanea which were interposed by way of relief to the acts of equitation consisted of contortions by one Monsieur Clive, who tied his body into knots with supreme contempt for any physiological opposition, and the " harmonics" of Mr. Arthur Nelson, who, with a buttoned stick, played tunes upon some blacks of pine with marvellous address, producing a sort of chiu•chop ping effi ct, but at the same time a scale of sounds remark ably distinct and correct in intonation. The American clowns who officiated in the ring were not humouriats of the brightest order. They talked themselves into the worst possible odour, and gave such offence at last by their silly and pointless loquacity as to provoke down right condt mnation. HAYMARKET THEATRE. Mr. W. Harrison, the well-known English tenor singer, made his first appearance last night as the lover in the Son and Stranger, in lieu of Mr. Donald King. Harrison was applituded with great heartint ss when he entered, and these flattering demonstrations were re newed from time to time in the course of the evening. His singing has lest none of iis former characteristics. This charming operetta seems to increase nightly in favour. The singers are now thoroughly versed in their duties—it need hardly Lie said with proportionate ad vantage to the gen« ral result. ST. JAMES'S THEATRE. The performance of Adrienne Lecouvreur, last night, was unexpectedly errs sted iu the most interesting part of the concluding scene. When, under the influence of the poison, the senses of Adrienne begin to wander, and she imagines herselt before the audience, Mademoiselle Rachel tottered, and fell back into the arms of M. Ra phael, who luckily was near enough to interpose his aid and break the fall. The curtain dropped, nud atter an interval of some minutes M. Raphael came forward, and explained to the audience that Mademoiselle Rachel was taken suddenly ill, and that it was impossible for her to continua the piece. The admirers of the great tragedian will be pleased to know, however, that the attack was merely a nervous one, from which nothing serious is to be anticipated. The immediate cause of the contretemps was sufficiently grotesque. Some persons had contrived to introduce a small dog with them into the theatre, which began to bark just at the absorbing moment when Adrienne receives the casket containing the poisoned bouquet. This unseemly interruption took a peculiar effect upon the nerves of Mademoiselle Rachel, whose performance throughout the evening had betrayed an unusual degree of excitement, and diaconc.-rted her so entirely as to lead to the result we have described. The audience behaved with the utmost courtesy, and dispersed, after M. Rapha e l' s exp l anat i on , w i t h out mani festing any expressions of discontent. CREMORNE GARDENS. SIEGE OF GIBRALTAR - IN THE BAY OF CHELSEA. Last night a repetition of a new feature, termed naval fe es, was carried out with increased brilliancy and effect. The Iron and Citiz , n Steam-boat Companies liberally . granted their un i te d f orce to a id i n t h e ann i ve rsary of . thnt great n ava l ac hi evement, t h e storm i ng an d t a king of Gibraltar from the Spaniards in 1704. The esplanade pier was ingeniously covered to represent the heights of Gibraltar, fortified as they were in the reign of Charles the Fifth—its broad frontage; to old Father Thames at full tide allowing ample space and play for the con federate fleet of steamers, commanded by . the company's superintendents, Messrs, Bence and Aitchison, whose skill, precision, and activity well supported these tem porary characters ire the impersonation ot the gallant admirals, Sir G. Rook and Sir Cloudtsly Shovel. Shortly before eleven the fleet took their moorings op. posite the fort, and almost instantaneously a bugle sounded, which was taken up by the drums and fifes, beating the call to arms. A signal rocket was now fired from the commodore's vessel, which wa s i m . mediately responded to by lights from every other, both small and large; and upon a sh e ll b e i ng received from the fleet the cannonading commenced from the fort, accompanied by showers of shells from every part ot the esplanade, while the drums, files, and bugles were sounding on all sides. In the midst of this appa rent confusikar, and under cover of the effective firing of the fleet, the daring feat was attempted b y t h e crew of some smaller boats to gain a Lnding by what was re presented as the South Mole Hend, which attempt proved abortive from the springing of a mine, a capital explosion, here taking plac e . 12 he engagem ent was con tinued with great spirit for some time, tim boats firing and retiring with admi ra bl e precision, till suddenly an explosion took place, th e sa il ors scaled the fort, the ninon-tack replaced the Spanish colours, and God save the Queen': was presented in pyrotechnic light, on the highest point, whil e t h e b ands played the nationa l airs ot ." Rule Britannia" and " G o d save the Queen," the visitors enthusiastically taking up the airs and the cor responding. wor d s. The scene at this u3ohnent, and for some time afterwards, was very brilliant. Blue lights and rockets, Venetian lamps, and Turkish fires illumined earth, air, and water, as each and boat clear 6 d the tort, the banks cf old Thames reverberated the . cheers of th e delighted crowds, who will long remember this new treat among the varied features of Cremorne. JOURNEYMAN TAILORS' BENEV OLENT IN STITUTION. —The ann u al genera l m eeting of this society was held yes terday at the London Tavern, for the. purpose of electi ng three pensioners from a list of 61 tincliclates. Jr. W. Lee Wright was in the chair. This society has for its object the relief of aged and infirm journeyman tailors and their widows, the benefits of which are available to the journeyman tailor of every nation, i nc apacitated from labour, at .d who has sub scribed for a given period to the funds. 112 pen s i oners h ave been remaining, each ond e r ach thei funds of the institution, and 61 were pensioner being allowed 20/. 16 s a year, with medicine, and medical atte n d ance. 1 4, 774/ . h a d been inv ested with the commissioners for the reduction o f coals. the nati nal debt on behalf of this institution. The secre tary read a short report, which wa s genera ll y sa ti s f actory. It stated that it was the intention of the committee to obtain a charter of incorporation, but that step was delayed from an unwillingness to trench upon the funded property. It also alluded to the great benefits the institution had con ferred upon so large a number of deserving persons, enabling them to spend the e ven i ng of the i r l if e i n comparat i ve com fort, instead of being confined within the walls of a union workhouse. After a few observations from the chairman, the report was received and adopted. A ballot then took place for three pensioners, and the meeting separated. Mr. Hume, M.P., who is slowly recovering from indisposition, is now at Brighton, whither he has gone for the benefit of a change of air. Two Englishmen, Messrs. Sheppard and Botton, have received a charter for the construction of a subma rine telegraph between the Danish islands and the Duchy of THE LATE ACCIDENT AT CLAYCROSS. MIDLAND CIRCUIE—Derby, July 28. (Before Mr. Baron PARKE and a Special Jury.) RLAKE V. MIDLAND RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover damages fur the death of ber husband, who had received the injuries which caused his death on the company's line. Mr. Mellor, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Miller, and Mr. Flood, were for the prosecution; Mr. Humfrey, Q.C., and Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., for the company. Mr. FLOOD opened the pleadings. In this case Mrs. Ellen Blake, administratrix to the late Mr. John Blake, was the plaintiff, and the Midland Railway Company were the defendants. The declaration stated that John Blake, in his lifetime, was a passenger on the Midland Railway, from Birmingham to Sheffield, and fur want of due care and attention he was killed. The damages were laid at 10,0001. The defendants pleaded that they were not guil , y. Mr. MELLOR stated the case. He had the honour, along with his Learned Friends, of appearing as counsel for Mrs. Blake, the plairtift in this case, who is the widow and aduainistratrix of Mr. John Blake, of Upperthorpe, Villas, near She ffiel i, where he carried on business under the name of " Make and Parkin," Meadow Works. On the 19th May, the day of the accident, he had been on a journey or business, and was returning from Binning ' ham to Derby, and from Derby to Sheffield. Ile took a second-class ticket, and got into a carriage which was last but one in the train. They bad proceeded a short way beyond Claycross station when the passenger train• was run into by a luggage train, by which very serious injuries resulted; Mr. Blake received such injuries that in a very short time afterwards death ensued. Mr. Meynell, a magistrate in the county, also met with his death. The action was brought by Mrs. Blake, who imputed to the Midland Railway Company, both the di rec. ors, superior officers, and servants, gross negligence in conducting their line in a parsimonious manner. After alluding to the Act under which this action would come, viz., 9th and 10th Viet., c. 93, he said that they charged the directors, superiors, and servants with neglect; this he should nut have the slightest difficulty in proving. The train by which Mr. Blake was to start from Der ny was appointed to leave Derby at 9 5 p.m., by the table table. It was 15 minutes, however, behind time on that occasion, and he very much feared that was nut an uncommon occurrence. It was not put down in the tine table to stop either at Driffield or Wingfield stations, but on the evening in question it stopped at both, whereby another ten minutes was lost. Thus they would see when it arrived at Claycross tunnel, it had lost twenty-five minutes. It passed the north end of that tunnel at about six minutes to ten. The regula tions of the company are to have two men—one placed at either end of the tunnel, which telegraph the coming and going of the trains through this tunnel. Mr.BUNFREY intimated that he should be very happy to save the time of the Court. 'lbis was merely a ques tion of damages. Huw the accident occurred had nothing to do with the action, inasmuch as it was only fora pe cuidary consideration. Mr. MELLOR thanked his friend, but thought it would, be essential to his case, and likewise to the minds of the jury, to go fully into it. It was very singular that his Learned Friends did not allow judgment to go by default, instead of making this remark at the last moment. His LORDSHIP thought that as they did not want vin dictive damages it would not be necessary to go into the cause of the accident. He thought they could only look at it in a pecuniary point of view. A long discussion here ensued upon the question be tween his LORDSHIP and Mr. MELLOR, but it was ulti mately decided that the case should only be gone into in a pecuniary sense. Mr. MELLOR then proceeded with his address. He could not help thinking that it would have been more honourable and fair to have made this admission before, and not when the shoe commenced to pinch. He should take the liberty of just giving a short narrative of the case. He had told them that Mr. John Blake was in the Sheffield business. He was of the age of thirty-four, and his wife was twenty-six, at the time of the lamentable occurrence in question. Mrs. Blake had just been con fined of a still-born child; and on the night that Mr. Blake was killed he was expected home by a loving and kind wife. But to return to the scene of the acci dent. The train had got about 250 yards beyond Clay cross station when it was found necessary to stop the train, the pump-rod of the engine having given way. The guard, immediately on stopping, ought to have pro ceeded about half a mile down the line with danger signals and explosive lights. This he did not do, and whether there was a sufficient time for him to do it in was a question which bad not been solved, some alleg ing one opinion and others a contrary one. Immediately atter this a goods train ran into them, killing Mr. Mey nell on the spot and injuring 16 or 17 more or less. Mr. Blake was found dreaafully injured, and about an hour afterwards he was put in a van which was going to take him to Chesterfield, but he died on the way. The lug gage train starts five minutes after the passenger train, a regulation which he thought extremely faulty, because by that they were depending upon mere mechanical skill as a certainty, not for one moment looking at contingen cies which might occur. Notwithstanding the luggage train was detained ten minutes at the junction and five minutes more at Belper, yet from Derby to Claycross it had gained halt an hour, and knowing that there was a passenger train before them. It was driven that night by a man who had never driven on that line before, and who had only been driver a week on the Lincoln line, and another week shunting. It appeared rather singular that a man who bad never driven on the line More, and who had such little ex perience, should be set to drive a train at night time. There was another matter which he must allude to; at the Clajeross station the company have a man employed only during the day time, and before leaving at night he turns on a white signal, which indicates " all right," and that the line is clear. Now the man goes to bed, consequently he knows nothing of what transpires during the time he is asleep. A train might break down just beyond the signals, and another following, :wing the white light, would of course proceed. Was this a proper system of organisation? What was the state Of things at home during this time? Instead of Mrs Blake seeing her husband, she receives the startling and appal' hog intelligence of his death. She is at this time in a delicate state of health, and as they might naturally suppose, this made her much worse. With regard to the question of damages, that would be a subject for their consideration, it not being bound by any process of law. He was certain they would find it th e i r d ut y toin demnify Mrs. Blake, and give her sufficient damages for the irreparable loss she had sustained. They must look at the position in life she occupied, and whatever was the social position Mrs. Blake enjoyed prior to the death of her husband, it would b e th e i r d u ty t o pl ace h er in again. In the first place, Mr. Blake had a very handsome house, worth 2,0001., handsomely furnished, which was worth 6001 more. This was freehold, but it was mortgaged to the extent of 1,000/. Now, according to estimates, it appeared that a man's life in good health, at the age of 34, was worth 31 years. They must a lso bear in mind, that Mr. Blake, having died intestate, his property went to his brother as heir-at-law. Mr. Blake was also entitled to a fourth share in " slack works" at Sheffield, which was adequate to 1001. per annum. He had also 100 shares in the Sheffield Union Bank, which were worth 12/. each. Mr. Blake had been married be fore, and he had got a very handsome fortune with his wife, about 8,000. He entered 'into partnership in the Sheffield trade with a Mr. Parkin in 1845. They began in a comparatively small way compared with many other houses, but they turned over last bear between 30,000 4 l it 'h a e l y kc a t t , er b e ut ab f o r u o t m ex th te is nd b i u n s g ine th ss ei a r lt t o ra g d e e the in r t a h n e d A4om,oeor ican he received about 250/. per annum. The Learned Counsel concluded by making an earnest appeal to the jury, after which several witnesses were called who proved what Mr. Blake's effects wero worth. Mr. HUNFREY addressed the jury on behalf of the defendants, and after entering into many statistics, proved that the plaintiff would now have 7,0001. clear is her own right, putting on one Bide all the contingencies to which life was subject. They must bear in mind that the business in which Mr. Blake was engaged was one that fluctuated considerably; and then, when they thought of the position Mre. Blake was in previous to her marriage with the deceased, without fortune, they would feel themselves justified in returning a verdict for a very small amount or damages. His LORDSHIP, in summing up, pointed out to the jury the various matters a for th e i r cons id era ti on , a nd said it was a question for them to consider that Ur. Blake's property was worth in total 13,000 L, a nd by Mrs. Blake being a Yorkshire widow she would receive about 7,000/. She would, therefore, be a loser in tact of about 6 Ma ; and it was for them to say what amount they would award. After on hour's deliberation, the jury returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 4,0001. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice MAULS.)
