FRANCE. The distribution of medals the siwcessful French exhibitors at the Great Exhibition took place on Tuesday. Previous to the distribution, the President of the Republic addressed those assembled in the fol lowing speech : "Gentlemen,—There are certain ceremonies which, from the sentiments they inspire, and the thoughts they suggest, are not a vain spectacle. I cannot deny that I feel affected, and proud as a Frenchman, et seeing around me the honourable men who, at the cost of so many efforts, and so many sacrifices, have main tained with distinction in a foreign land the reputa tion of our manufactures, of our arts, and our science. This is not the first time I have rendered just homage to the grand idea which originated the universal Exhibition of London. But at the moment of crowning your success with a national recompense, can I forget that so many marvels of industry and of art were commenced amidst the din of insurrection , and completed while society is still incessantly agitated by the fear of the present, and by the menaces of the future ? And when pondering over the obstacles you have had to overcome, I said to myself, ' How great this nation would become if she were allowed to breathe at ease and to live w ith the life that is in her !'—(Cheers.) Yes I It was when public credit began to re-appear—it was when infer nal ideas incessantly urged the working classes to destroy the sources of industry itself—it was when madness, clothing itself with the mantle of philan thropy, was turning away men's minds from regular occupations into Utopian speculations—it was at such a time that you exhibited to the world those produc tions which seemed only possible in a condition of durable tranquillity. With such unhoped-for results I am justified in repeating how great the French Republic would become if she were allowed to follow her real interests, and to reform her institutions, instead of being incessantly troubled, on one side by demagogism, and on the other by monarchical hallucinations.—(Loud and repeated applause from every part of the amphitheatre.) Do these demagogic ideas proclaim a truth ? No! They circulate en every side error and falsehood. Disquie tude precedes, deception follows them ; and the means employed for repression are but so much lost to the pressing meliorations and the alleviation of misery. —(Applause, and cries of " C'est vrai ! C'est vrai !") With respect to monarchical hallucinations, though not productive of the same dangers, they also impede all progress and all kinds of serious industry. In place of advancing, there is only a struggle. Men are seen who, heretofore the most ardent supporters of the prerogatives and the authority of Royalty, be come partisans of a convention for the purpose of weakening that authority which is the issue of popu lar suffrage.—(Loud and repeated applause.) We see those who have the most suffered from, and who have deplored revolution the most, provoke a new one, and that for the sole object of baffling the will of the nation, and impeding the movement, which changes society, in its peaceful course.—(Bravo Bravo!) Yet those efforts are vain , All that time renders necessary must be accomplished. That only which is useless cannot be restored. i The presentce remony is an additional proof that f certain institu tions disappear without return, those, on the contrary, that are in conformity with the manners, the ideas, the wants of the epoch, may brave the attack of envy or of Puritanism. You all, children of the regene rated society that :abolished ancient privileges, and that proclaimed as its fundamental principle civil and political equality, you, I repeat, yet feel a just pride in being named reemb?re of the Order of the Legion of Honour. It is because that institution, as well as all others created at that period, WAS in harmony with the spirit of the age and the ideas of the nation. For from serving, like others, to make distinctions more marked and deeper, it effaces all such, and places on the same line merit of all kinds, to whatsoever profession, to whatsoever rank of society he b-longs.—(Cneers.) Ac cept, then, these crosses of the Legion of Honour, which, in conformity with the grand idea of its founder, are intended to confer equal honour on in dustry as on bravery, and on bravery as on scientific excellence. Before we separate, gentlemen, permit me to encourage you to renewed efforts. Undertake new labours without fear—they will prevent idle ness duriog the present winter. Hive no fears for the future. Tranquillity shall be maintained what ever may happen.—(Cheers.) A Government that relies for its suppert on the entire mass of the nation, that has no other motive than the public good, and that is animated by the ardent faith that guides you safely over the space where no path is traced, the Government, I repeat, will know how to fulfil its mission, because it has for it the right that pro ceeds from the people, and the strength that comes from God !" DENMARK. In a recent sitting of the Volksthing of Denmark, the Minister of Marine presented a Bill fixing the naval force at 4 men-of-war, 6 frigates, 3 corvettes, 4 brigs, 42 gun-boats, 2 steam-frigates of from 300 to 400-horse power, 4 steam-corvettes of from 200 to 300-horse power, and 8 smaller vessels—in all 73 vessels, carrying 946 guns and 9,623 men. The ex pense is estimated at 12,000,000 rixdalers. In 1845 the force of the navy was fixed at 108 vessels, 1,024 guns, and 12,477 men. THE BOURBONS. A letter from Vienna, of the 18th, in the Post Ampt Gazette of Frankfort, says :—" count de La rochejaquelin, who has been staying at Vienna, was yesterday suddenly summoned to Frohsdorff. He has not yet returned. The arrival of the young Count de Montmorency is expected there. It is said that he is the bearer not only of letters of condolence from the Orleans family, but also of direct propositions for a reconciliation. The Countess de Marne it is said expressed, shortly before her death, the desire to her nephew that he should become reconciled with the Orleans family, and, it is added that in her papers was found a letter for the Duchess d'Orleans, praying her to forget the subjects of dissension which have hitherto divided the two families. This letter was sent to its address, and it is to the effect ii; has pro duced that the serious steps taken to bring about a reconciliation are to be ascribed. It appears that the Count de Chambord is well disposed to a reconcilia tion if the Orleans family be no too exacting." LAUNCH OF A FRIGATE. The sight-loving inhabitants of Paris had on Sun day an opportunity of witnessing a spectacle such as the oldest among them had never before seen, and which the youngest may never see again—the hunch of a frigate pierced for 40 guns, within the distance of a pleaeant walk from the centre of the capital. So great was the curiosity excited that for some hours before the time announced for the launch every road leading to the spot was thronged with vehicles and foot passengers, and seats in the ordinary conveyances leading there to were engaged six deep. Long before the appointed hour the bridge of Neuilly was one mass of living heads, and the opposite side of the river was thronged with tens of thousands of curious spectators, whilst scores of pleasure-boats crowded the river. One o'clock was the hour fixed for the affair to come off, but the.spectators were doomed to have their patience put to the test, for it was nearly half-past four before the vessel touched the water. Fortu nately there were two fine military bands present , wno beguiled the time, and a large number of the Orpheonist s who sung a variety of glees. A few minutes after four, a bustle at the entrance-gate announced to the parties in the galleries, among whom were a number of elegantly-dressed women, the anxiously -expected arrival of the President of the Republic. He came on horseback, dressed in plain clothes, and only attended by two grooms. Oa arriv ing, he was greeted with a unanimous and hearty shout of " Vive le President!" " Vive Napoleon !" w hich was loudly repeated by everyone in the gal leries as he advanced down the yard to the seat pre pared for him. H e a ppeared muc h gratified by his rece ption, and b ow ed repeatedly as he passed a l ong . u Previously to the arrival of the President,he c l ergy of the parish, of Neuil had gone through ceremony of benedictio n, and the g the usua l moment the P res i. dent reached his place, t he last operations were pro ceeded with. To nautical men, the la unch was one of more than ordinary curiosity, from an inno vation on the usually adopted system of tending part of ding the vessel into the water stern foremos t. The the river, on the banks of which she wa s built, and which is the inlet running b e t w een t he _IN bord e rs_ 11eu..,i of the park attached to the late royal Château of 1 and th e s mall island opposite, is very narro w , scarcely wider than the vessel ' is long, and it. was therefor e necessary to adopt the plan o f launching her " broadside on." The principle is the same, though doubtless more complicated. Instead of two " ways" there were seven, whilst greater me chanical means is necessarily required to move the vessel. That first of all levers, the wedge, however, soon did , the busin ess ; an d as soon as the " doge shores' were knocked away, a few heavy strokes at the wedges placed at the inner or " shore" end of the ways quickly set the mass in motion. The vessel, which bears the name of the Ville de Paris, is a very pretty craft, and is a perfect model of a 40- gun frigate minus the keel, and about 5 feet below the bends, thus giving her a fiat bottom, a plan of building which was necessary to lessen her draught of water. When afloat, however, thi s d e li, ciency is not visible. Her length on deck is about 150 feet, with a breadth of beam - of i 0 feet. Her upper deck is flush fore and aft, and her height be tween decks is a little more t h an six feet. She is to be lightly rigged es a frigate, _or the pup and have the neces sary number of guns ion board f teaching gunne ry. When complete, h er dr aft water will be about about five and a half feet. This vessel, which is built by a joint-stock company, with the authorisation of the Government, is intended as a practical and theoretical Preparatory Naval S chool , THE SUN and is under the Patronage of M. C. Dupin, Admirals ! Dapotet, 1111 g-in, and de• Villeneuve, General.s Luria ton and Turtas, and ivf vl. Bouhier, de r &lase, Fremy, Heckeren. Boys will be herein prepared for merchant service, and also for the superior naval schools at Brest, Toulon, &c. The practical part of the educa tion of the pupils will be given by the officers and crew of the frigate, which is composed of men who have alrt‘.ady served in the navy. She will be commanded by a Lieutenant de yaisseau. The pupils, in addition to the necessary instruction to qualify them for sea, w ill go through the usual routine of general education, under proper masters. It is expected that the school will be opened in the early part of 1853. This may truly be said to be an age of wo nders. How would our forefathers stare with astonishment, could they be told that on the 23d of November, 1851, a 40-gun frigate was launched almost within sight of the gates of Paris, and that a whisper of the event being made at the office of the Minister of the Interior it would be known in Lon don almost as soon as the person communicating it could leave the court-yard of the hotel. REPRESENTATION OF THE SCOTTISH UNIVERSITIES. We notice that a proposal is agitated for giving representatives in the House of Commons to the Universities of Scotland. Much might be said in favour of the measure ; and it is held with great reason that if the schools of Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin enjoy the privilege, so ought the kindred in stitutions of this country. We would claim for the case of our universities a full and respectful atten tion. But for the ensnaring test imposed on lay professors, those schools would be next to perfect in their arrangements. Here the rich and poor meet together without a shadow o f grade or distinction, and no subscriptions to artic les of reli▪ gion are ex tracted from the students, as in the case of the English colleges. Speaking generally, the expense of educa tion is far from being heavy ; and the teachers are men particularly well qualified for thei▪ r duties—in many instances scholars of eminence and of European fame. This has always been the case, and it is but justice to say that commonly the patronage of the chairs in the universities is wisely and advan tageously exercised, even where (as in case of the Edinburgh Town Council) men not scholars them selves are patrons. Nor is it a trivial matter in such a discussion as the present, that though there have been seats of learning even in Great Britain not re garded as favourab l e to political liberty, the univer sities were of old highly popular in their constitution —in effect, republics, of which the citizens, as we might say, were scholars, and no more. While rank in the social state dictated most galling exclusions, and while the people were too often oppressed by turns by the monarch or by the nobility, while birth and station conferred the most dangerous or invidious prerogatives, the man sprung from the people had one city of refuge in which talent and scholarship were held as nobility—where, at least, the mortifying dis tinctions prevalent without were in theory laid aside. Hence some of the most eminent scholars of past ages were persons of what is called " lowly" origin, of much the same class as that out of which our own scholars, divines, and professional men have originally in most cases sprung. We cannot now sufficiently appreciate the value of this benign ordination of Providence dur ing former ages, when the people in most cases were the slaves of feudal masters—the serfs, it might be, of a domineering, tyrannous lord—learning could not be despised, and it gave honour to its professors. The consequence and respectability so obtained were gene rally on the side of the masses, while, in other cases of distinction, fame and power were usually attainable hut lay a caste proud, haughty, and exclusive. Nor in the more noted seats of learning was the scholar a mere student, having no connexion with his school but as a learner. The republican form of govern inant already adverted to had conferred large powers and privileges on all connected with those institutions—a relic of which we fancy we detect in the popular election of the Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow. During the dark ages, too, commerce came to the aid of science. Enlightened activity, engaged in traffic with distant nations, gave importance to the merchant, often a patron of learn ing. Andit thus happens that in the ancient univer sities, and in the chartered towns and seaports of Europe, we find the fairest and most matured deve lopment of public liberty and the real rights of man. We are desirous to make these observations as we could wish to find the people well affected towards our great schools, and taking an interest in their welfare. We believe, however, that a very good feeling exists in Scotland towards the academic insti tutions of the land. And how could it be otherwise, when in those schools young men out of every con ventional rank are educated, and impelled to seek after excellence, not, however, unattainable or unknown elsewhere ? We have known a working man of the better class contrive to send two sans to the univer sity, one of whom is at present a distinguished aca demic, and holds a professor's chair. Such is the honourable pride of Scotsmen—such reputation and status may be obtained by a youth apparently born to poverty. But to revert to the representation of the Scottish Universities, we could wish to find it largely discussed by the press and country. Many may consider that if there is to be a knowledge qualification of some kind instituted, then all learned men of every school or of suitable qualifications, however attained, might have the franchise. And there is something in this. It may, however, be contended that apart from the universities being the most determinate form in which the learning of the country appears, and apart from their comprehending as alumni by far the larger por tion of the scholars of the country, the stable position end high standing of those great schools would justify the bestowal of the franchise, leaving knowledge and scholarship otherwise to be provided for as a general arrangement, if indeed the educated class are to have the franchise without proprietary qualification. All this should be pondered carefully ; and it may be assumed that Ministers are ready to give due respect to opinions shared in by a large and respectable por tion of the people. It cannot be said that Scotland has had its proper quota of representatives, and in some such way we might come to have a larger in fluence in the House of Commons and over the Go vernment than is the case at present. —Greenock Advertiser. BANKING INSTITUTE. On Tuesday evening the first monthly meeting of this jostitution was held at the London Tavern. and was inost numerously attended. J. W. Gilbert, E-q., was in the chair. The CHAIRMAN congratulated the meeting on their having got over the preliminary arrangements at tendant on the formation of the institution, and being abodt to celebrate the first of their monthly meeting.. It was not a meeting for business, but for discussion, and he would call on the secretary to read the report of what had occurred since the preliminary meeting. The Secretary then read a short report, which stated that the honorary offices had been accepted by several gentleman of high character in the commercial world, among whom were Sir Moses Montefiore, James Wilson, Esq., M.P., James flelme, Esq , J. W. Gilbert, Esq , and others. Two hundred mem bers bad enrolled themselves in the society, and ar rangements had been made to open rooms at the Hall of Commerce by the Ist of January, and also for commencing the formation of a library. The CHAIRMAN said they bad met to discuss ques tions connected with commercial transactions, and especially those connected with their own calling, and this might cause them to enter on the consideration of many subjects which at first sight might not appear to have an immediate relation to banking pursuits ; but they would do so only as practical men, and endeavour to give all their discussions a practical bearing on the objects of their profession. It was probable that they would have to discuss the question of guarantees, of matters relating to the health and comfort of those carrying on the business of banking, as well as that of life assurance—all of which would be considered in their order. In their proceedings they would follow the plan adopted by the Statis tical Society, the Society ,of Arts, and others. The chair would be taken by one of the officers of the institution or a member of the council, and all the arrangements would be made by the authority of the vwily council. A paper would be read which had been pre io submitted to the council, who would be re sponsible so far as that a proper subject was selected, but not for any h t opinions which might be expressed. At the close o f vote taken with regarde lecture there would not be any into the truth or inaccuracy of the opinions containedwhichitwas hoped it ; but a discussion would follow, b y urts m th a a d t e much information wants and aTenv t dh o een a i p n ply that_ n line would be derived, and eff and woulds requirements ei . cib be formation practically e t s h s e a of their calling. on the question, " How far is the security g of bankers' men who were locks affected by the recent ingeniou s They were much experiments in patent lock yw s obliged the Mr. DALTON, the secretary, then proceeded in v entboyrsthoef thaettbeensdtalnocceksofof the day. to read a paper on the subject. Few subjects connected with the Great Exhibition excited so much interest 891 the great " Lock Controvert y:' It was reported that a wonderful gentleman on the other side of the water, named Hobbs, bad picked all the locks in the world ; but nevertheless Messrs. Bramah were much surprised when that gentleman walked into their shop and offered to open their lock with which they had so long defied the mechanical skill of every other aftist in that line ; hut having already opened one of Mr. Chubb's, be went to work, and succeeded in doing so in sixteen days. After going at length into this controversy, Mr. Dalton atruetion not as so e n proceeded to say th a t th e great secur i ty o f l oc ks de pended much o 9 nt f h .e e t c ie o t tn i e p f lic t a h t e i i o r n m o a f k t e h , ei a r e con struction the er they cannot be obtained so as to be depended on LONDON, from any one but the makers. Messrs. Chubb and 1 . 3 r cp 1 1 ) 9 A 1 -N - 1 - t-,7 Mr. Ilro'l•r„ therefore tho questiort arose whether the lucks usually employed by bankers were now less secure than before. The resistance required by these locks was twofold, viz. :—against force and against fraud. Robberies in banks by violence in this country were rare, although frequent in America. In the case of the robbery at Messrs. Rogers and Co.'s, it was no doubt effected by fraud, the keys having been copied. The latest burglary on a strong-room by violence was effected by an instru ment called a Jack-in-the-box, which Mr. Chubb had sent this evening for inspection. (The instrument was exhibited, and the mode in which it was used explained.) This was now provided against by Mr. Chubb. It was a question whether Mr. Hobbs had picked Bramah and Chubb's locks under cir cumstances such as robbers might employ • and however that might be as to Chubb's (the defect of which bad been remedied), the fact of his being sixteen days about Bramah's seemed to be an answer to it; besides which Mr. Hobbs was possessed of very extraordinary powers of manipula tion peculiar to himself. On the whole it seemed that both Chubb's and Bramah's locks were nearly if not altogether impregnable and sufficient for erdiaary security. It had been suggested, however, that every banker should have more than one lock, each of a different construction, on his strong-room door, in order to complete their security. On the whole, in answer to the question, " How far the security of bankers locks was affected by the recent scientific and ingenious experiments on patent locks ?" he should says, that although the locks had been picked, and could be picked, it had been done under circum stances not likely to occur on the premises of bankers. Mr. CHUBB and Mr. BRAMAH then exhibited and explained the principles of several locks. Mr. BRAMAH explained that the lock picked by Mr. Hobbs had been made SO years ago, and a part of the mechanism, which was in the locks of the present day, composed:of a different material, was made of soft iron, capable of being bent. The challenge had been accepted on the terms proposed, and Mr. Hobbs had opened the lock in sixteen dsys ; but if the trial had been on one of those made in modern times it would have taken him sixteen months, if he ever did open it at all. Mr. Hoßas next exhibited a lock made by Messrs. Newell, of New York, the principle of which was that the key was formed of moveable bits, which it was in the power of the owner of the lock to withdraw and replace in it, so that every one, in fact, made his own key, the changes in which were capable of being multiplied in the lock in proportion to the bits of the key. It is thus secure against all impressions, and even against the maker himself. Among other pro perties possessed by this lock was a contrivance by which it resisted any attempt to blow it open with gunpowder. After a vote of thanks to the lecturer and the gen tlemen who had exhibited and explained the princi ples of their locks the meeting separated. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 26. (Sittings in Banco.) The Judges of this Court held a sitting in Banco under the County Courts Act, in order to hear ap peals against decisions pronounced in the county courts. BRIDGES V. lIAWKESWORTII. This was an appeal against a decision of the Judge of the County Court of Westminster, upon a case which had been tried before him, and in which he had given judgment for the defendant. The appeal was heard at the sittings after last Trinity Term, when it was argued by Mr. Gray (with whom was Mr. Heath) for the plaintiff, and by Mr. Hake for the defendant. The Court had taken time to consider the judgment, which was now delivered by Mr. Justice PATTESON, who said—This was an ap peal against the decision of the Judge of the 'West- minster County Court, in a case which was brought before him under the following circumstances :—The defendant was a stationer, carrying on business as 21, Charing-cross, and the plaintiff entered his shop upon business, and seeing a parcel lying upon the floor, he stooped and picked it up, and observing it to con rain notes, gave it ,to defendant's apprentice, who called the defendant, and the plaintiff then told him what had happened. The defendant said he would take the notes and keep them for the true owner. The plaintiff assented. On the following morning the plaintiff called, and, finding that the notes bad not been claimed, a conversation ensued about advertising them. The defendant did advertise them, bat no one appeared to claim them. The defendant paid the expenses of the advertisements. The plaintiff after wards called upon the defendant to restore them, and offered to repay the money expended for the adver tisements. The defendant refused to accept this money, and offered plaintiff 21. 10s. " for his honesty," which was refused. The defendant subsequently offered the plaintiff 51, but refused to give up the notes, saying that he had made himself liable to the true owner, whenever that true owner should appear. The defendant declared that he should send the notes to his banker, and altogether refused to deliver them to the plaintiff, though the plaintiff offered him a satisfactory indemnity against the claims of any per son who demanded them as owner. On these facts the Learned Judge of the County Court held that, neither of the parties having any title as against the true owner, the shopkeeper in whose shop the notes were found had, for the purpose of protection to the true owner, the preferable title as to possession against the actual finder who found it there, and therefore gave, judgment for the defendant. We have consi dered this case very attentively, and we think the judgment erroneous. The notes which are the sub ject of this action were evidently dropped by mere accident in the shop of the defendant by the owner of them. The facts do not warrant the supposition that they had been de posited there intentionally, nor has the case been at all put upon that ground. The plaintiff found them on the floor, they being manifestly lost by some one. The general right of the finder to any article which has been lost, as against all the world except the true owners, was established in the case of " Aniory v. Deiamairie," 1 Str., 505, which has never been dis puted. This right would clearly have accrued to the plaintiff had the notes been picked up by him outside the shop of the defendant ; and if he onee had the right, the case finds that he did not intend by deliver ing the notes to the defendant to waive the title, if any, which he bad to them, but they were handed to the defendant merely for the purpose of delivering them to the owner should he appear. Nothing that was done afterwards has altered this state of things; the advertisements inserted in the newspapers, refer ing to the defendant, had the same object. The plaintiff has tendered the expense of these advertise ments to the defendant, and offered him an indem- nity ogainst any claim to be made by the real goner, and has demanded the notes. The case, .herefore, resolves itself into the single point on which it appears that the Learned Judge de cided it, namely, whether the circumstance of the flutes being found inside the defendant's shop gives him (the defendant) the right to have them as against the plaintiff who found them. There is no authority to be found in our law directly in point. Perhaps the nearest case is that of " Merry v. Green, 7th M. and W., 623,1 but it differs in many respects from the present. We were referred in the course of the argument to the learned work of Von Savigny, edited by Chief Justice Perry, but even this work, full as it is of subtle distinctions and nice reasonings, does not afford a solution of the present question. It was well asked en the argument, if the defendant has the right, when did it accrue to him ? If at all, it must have been antecedent to the finding by the plaintiff, for that finding could not give the defendant any right. If the notes had been accidentally kicked into the street, and there found by some one passing by, could it be contended that the defendant was entitled to thorn from the mere fact of their having been origi nally dropped in his shop ? If the discovery had never been communicated to the defendant, could the real owner have had any cause of action against him because they were found in his house ? Certainly not. The notes never were in the custody of the defendant, nor within the protection of his house, before they were found, as they would have been had they been intentionally deposited there, and the defendant has come under no responsibility, except from the communication made to him by the plaintiff, the finder, and the steps taken by way of advertisement. These steps were really taken by the defendant as the agent of the plaintiff, and he has been offered an indemnity, the sufficiency of which is not disputed. We find, therefore, no circumstances in this case to take it out of the general rule of law, that the finder of a lost article is entitled to it as against all persons except the real owner, and we think that that rule must prevail, and that the Learned Judge was mistaken in holding that the place in which they were found makes any legal difference. Our judgment, therefore, is, that the plaintiff is en titled to those notes as against the defendant, that the judgment of the Court below must he reversed, and Judgment given for the plaintiff for 551. The plain tiff, of course, will have the costs of appeal. The judgment was at first entered for 551., the amount of the notes actually found, but as the sum to be recovered i n t h e county court cou l d not ex cee:i 50/ , the judgment was entered for that sum. (Sittings at Nisi Prins, before Mr. Justice Wightman and a Common Jury.) BSNNETT V. LADDROKE A• Mr. Bramwell and Mr. Pigott tgott appeared as cou nsel for the plaintiff ; fir, M . Ch am b ers con . ducted the defence. This was an action of tr espnss, occasioned by the defendant having caused the plaintiff to be arrested upon a charge of felony. The plaintiff was a tailor, who had carried on bu siness in Sackyille-strert, and had resided in St. John's Wood. In May last, becoming embarrassed EEURSDAY EV in his circumstances, he made an assignment of his p i •-• ) t 1113 C:" 1i ors, ` giv- op possession of his house in St. John's Wood, in which a Frenchman, of the name of Noissons, had apart ments he took unfurnished lodgings in the house of the defendant, who was a dairyman in Albany-street. An agreement was thereupon drawn up between the plaintiff and defendant, the former signing it in the name of Noissons, for the purpose, as he alleged in his evidence, of avoiding the danger of having the furniture in that house seized upon by his creditors. It appeared that an unfriendly feeling was soon after wards created between the parties in consequence of the plaintiff feeding his dogs in the kitchen, and of alleged irregularity in his hours for returning home at night. The result was, the plaintiff having been locked out on one night at half-past ten o'clock, and having been afterwards given into custody by the de fendant on the charge of obtaining possession of the apartments under,,h false or forged name. The plaintiff, who was examined, stated that he had received authority from the Frenchman, through his (the plaintiff's) wife, to use his name, and that he had informed the defendant subsequently to his taking possession of the apartments that he had done so, but that his real name was Samuel Charles Bennett, and that while he occupied the apartments the defendant had always addressed him by his proper name. The plaintiff was taken upon this charge to the station house, and from thence to the police office, where, upon the case being entered into, he was discharged by order of Mr. Broughton, the magistrate. Mr. M. CHAMBERS, who addressed the jury in an able speech for the defendant, denounced the conduct of the plaintiff in assuming another name, and stated that defendant—having made inquiries of Mr. Nois • Ms, who at that time had been carrying on business as the patentee of stoves in Regent-street, and having been informed by that gentleman that he gave the plaintiff no authority to assume his name—thought r-- he was warranted in giving him into custody. The Frenchman having since left the country, there was no means of ascertaining the truth upon this point. There were no witnesses called for the defence And the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff— Damages 101. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 26. :Sittings before Sir F. POLLOCK, Chief Baron, and Common Juries.) BARBAT V. ALLEN. Mr. Hirslet appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr, Gifford for the defendant. This was an action by the plaintiff,who is a French man, for 281., the expenses of a journey to Paris in the course of last summer, for the purpose of getting up parties of excursions to visit London and stay at defendant's hotel. The plaintiff not being able to speak English, the negotiations between plaintiff and defendant were carried on by a Colonel Parrent, who was now called on the part of the plaintiff, and proved the engagement entered into by the defendant. In cross-examination he described himself as in tendent of an hotel. He had been charged at the Old Bailey with stealing some property ; it was said he had run away with another man's wife, and that he had stolen the things she took with her, but he was immediately acquitted. He was not charged with stealing a pair of breeches. He was never charged with stealing an umbrella. A friend of his took one by mistake, and left an old one in its place. The one taken was afterwards restored to its owner. The broken English and manner of the witness ex cited great merriment throughout the court. The plaintiff having been examined through an in terpreter, and having proved the expenses incurred by him on defendant's business, the counsel for the de fendant addreesel the jury, and was about to set up a defence to be substantiated by the evidence) of the de fendant's wife, when his Lordship said he should not receive her evidence. The Learned Counsel upon this said it would be useless for him to contend against the plaintiff's case. The wife having been tendered as a witness, pro forma„and rejected by his Lordship, the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for 271., one pound being deducted by arrangement. ELIICK V. GOMPERTZ. This was an action on a guarantee entered into by the defendant, that two bills of exabange, accepted by Mr. M. J. O'Connell, should, be duly paid when due. Mr. Webby, Mr. Hawkins, and Mr. Pearce ap peared for the plaintiff; Mr. Knowles was counsel for the defendant The plaintiff stated that, in March last, the de fendant requested him to sell some wine to a friend of his, Mr. M. I. O'Connell. Plaintiff agreed to do this if defendant would guarantee the payment, and ac cordingly the defendant gave him the following un dertaking :—" In consideration of your handing me two drafts on Mr. M. J. O'Connell for 2001. and 1501. respectively, I undertake to get them accepted and to see them paid." The bills were accepted, but not paid by Mr. O'Connell. Mr. KNOWLES objected that the document did not disclose the whole consideration, and was, therefore, invalid under the Statute of Frauds. His LORDSHIP having overruled the objection, The COUNSEL for the defendant submitted to a ver diet for the full amount claimed. EXCHEQUER CHAMBER, Nov. 26. • (Errors from the Court of Queen's Bench, before Mr. Baron PARKE, Mr. Baron ALDERSON, Mr. Justice CRESSWELL, Mr. Baron PLATT, Mr. Justice WIL LIAMS, Mr. Justice TALFOURD, and Mr. Baron MARTIN.) ---------- HENDERSON V. EASON. The question in this case was whether, where one tenant in common, who has had the sole enjoyment of the land, farmed it, and taken the produce, can be sued in an action of account by his co-tenant, under the statute 4 Anne, c. 16, s. 27, although it may be uncer tain whether the occupying party has received any surplus profit. The case was argued in the sittings in error after Hilary term last. Mr. Baron PARKE now delivered the judgment of the Court, and said the declaration alleged that Ed ward Eason eince dead, and whose executor Hender son the plaintiff in error is, and Robert Eason, were tenants in common of certain lands and hereditaments from November, 1833, to November, 1839, and that the said Edward Eason in his lifetime had the care and management of the whole of said mes suages, lands, and hereditaments, to receive and take the rents, issues, and profits thereof, to the common profit of Robert Eason and Edward Eason, deceased, and as bailiff of Robert Eason, of what he received more than his just share and proportion thereof, to render a reasonable account thereof, and his said share thereof when he should be required se to do, according to the form of the statute, &c. There was an averment that Edward Eason, deceased had in his lifetime received more than his own just, share, to the amount of 2,0001., and that he did not render a reasonable account thereof. And that since his death Henderson, the executor, the plaintiff in error, had not accounted. To this declaration there were two pleas-Ist, denying that Edward Eason in his lifetime had the care, &c., as bailiff, to render a reasonable account thereof; 2d, denying that Edward Eason received more than his due share, upon which issue was joined. It appeared that the tenements and lands consisted of a farm, and that Edward Eason, de cease d, was in the sole occupation and possession, and cultivated and farmed the land, and appropriated the whole of the profits to his own use. Daring the whole time, the lands never were let to, or in the possession of, any tenant paying rent, nor did he re ceive any rent, issues, or profits other than the pro fits and produce derived from the culture of the land. The trial w es had before Mr. Justice Coleridge, and the question now arises upon his ruling to the jury. There is no doubt as to the law before the statute of Anne. Now, if one tenant in common occupies the whole, there is no remedy unless he is bailiff to his co-tenant in common. The declaration is framed upon the statute. Now, under the statute, he is bailiff only, as having received more than his share, as is explained by Chief Justice Willes, in Wheeler v. Horne, in Willes' Reports, p. 209. In the Act of Anne the receipt of issues and profits is not mentioned, but only the receipt of more than comes to his just share, that is, more than his just share within the statute. The statute includes all the rent received for both, and where one receives the whole or more than his share, he becomes bailiff for the other as to that excess. But it is difficult to extend the statute beyond that. Thus, if two are tenants in common of a room, and it is solely occu pied by one, and nothing is received, it would be hard that the mere occupation is to be accounted for, and that is not within the statute as was decided by Lord Cottenham. Again, if one tenant in common occupies, and expends money upon a farm, and it comes to more than a fair rent, as if he cultivates hops, and he takes the whole of the crops, he could not be called upon by his co-tenants for an account of his profit and losses. The risk is his own, and in taking all the produce he cannot be said to be taking more than his just share, for he only receives a return for his capital and labour. Upon the whole, therefore, we think that the direction of the Learned Judge, on the second plea, was wrong, and that there must be a venire do novo. COURT OF INLAND HEVES UE. Nov. 26. (Before 11. P. STEPHENSON, Esq., C. J. lIERRIES, Esq., and A. MONTGOMERY, Esq.) This Court resumed its sittings this day, after a pro tracted recess of nearly six months, to dispose of a portion of a long list of cases in arrear. CONVICTION OF A LICENSED VICTUALLER FOR THE POSSESSION OF ADULTERATING MATERIALS. Edward Vincent, of the Duchess of Kent, Deverell street, Dover-road, was charged with havin g in his possession certain articles for the a d u lter ation of beer, and to be used as a substitute for malt a nd hops. Mr. David Scott, a supervisor of E x c i se , said on the. 26. h of April last he went to the premises of t h e &fondant, who carried on business in Deverell-street, Dover-road. lie was accompanied by Messrs. Duly NING, NOVEMBER 27, 1851. and Pargeter. When he got to the house he saw the Wai au ject of his visit. Witness asked him to accompany him to the cellar, and he did so, and they first entered the beer cellar. In the course of his exami nation he found a large quantity of bottles, and amongst them one large bottle containing about a gallon and a quarter of liquid, which he had since ascertained to bo a compound of getaian and treacle. Upon being questioned about it the defendant said it contained cherry brandy, and on witness's request he tasted it, and after having done so he said that he could not tell what It was, but it must have been in the cellar at the time he took the house. He said that he had been in the house for about three years. It did not appear that the bottle had been recently used. Witness then asked defen- • dant if he had used any of the liquid by mixing it with his beer, and he said that he had not, as he always used foots sugar. In the bar upstairs he also found a bottle of the tincture of capsicum, but the possession of this article was not included in the pre sent charge. The defendant denied having stated in the cellar that he used foots sugar, but afterwards admitted that be used it in consequence of the officer telling him that if he had put any thing into the beer he had bet ter acknowledge it, and it would be better for him, as they should be sure to find it out. Mr. Scott said the defendant distinctly told him in the cellar that he put foots sugar into his beer, which he wrote down in the place at the time, and, moreover, he showed him the cask into which he had put it. Mr. Benjamin Elmy said he was in the cellar at the time of the occurrence, and the account given by Mr. Scott was true. Mr. Commissioner STEPnENsoN—What appear ance bad the bottle at the time it was found ? Mr. Elmy said it had the ordinary appearance of the other bottles. The cork was not encrusted and was easily removed. _ _ Mr. C. B. Forsy, assistant chemist to the Board of Inland Revenue, said he had received two samples of the mixtures which had been seized on the defendant's premises. One sample consisted of saccharine matter and a bitter substance which he believed to be gen tian. This mixture was commonly used for adul terating beer. The second sample was tincture of capsicum. Mr. Commissioner STEPHENSON (to the defendant) —ls it possible to believe that so bulky a bottle as that (pointing to it) could have been in your cellar for three years without your knowledge ? The de fendant said such was the fact. Mr. Commissioner STEPHENSON—Do you mean to tell the Court that you could have so large a bottle, containing, as you say, cherry brandy, for three years and know nothing about it? The Court gives judgment against you in the penalty of 25!. 1L,0.: II CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. THIkD COURT, (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) Angelina Adams, alias Mary Ann Burhe, aged 18, was indicted for wilful and corrupt perjury. The defendant, a strange, sickly-looking girl, ap parently younger than stated, pleaded not guilty. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Ballantine appeared for the prosecution, which was instigated by the authorities of Hammersmith parish. The COMMON SERGEANT asked if she was defended, and, learning that she was not, directed that she should be, and the Under-Sheriffs requested Mr. Huddle stone to watch the proceedings on her behalf. Mr. BODKIN having stated the case to the jury, called Mr. John William Nicholls, clerk to the magis trates of the Hatnmersmith Police-court, who stated that on the 17th of October the prisoner brought to their court by the authorities of the parish, and after Mr. Paynter, the magistrate, had given a private hearing to the parties, he granted, at the instance of the prisoner, a summons against Mary Joseph, one of the sisters of the Good Shepherd Convent at Hammersmith, for an assault. When the summons came on for hearing, the prisoner having been duly sworn, made a statement in evidence to the following effect :—That she was of the Pro testant faith and had been in service in Liverpool, where some months before she had met a man, a Ca tholic priest ; that he brought her up to London and took her to the convent at Hammersmith, where she had been confined ; that they had tried to make a Catholic of her, and that in consequence of her re fusing, the superiors had cut her hair off as a pu nishment. She most minutely described how it was effected, stating that it was in the month of July ; that two women held her down (there being four present), whilst sister Joseph cut it off. She had several times requested to be let out, but was kept a close prisoner, and had escaped on the morning of the 16th by getting through a wall in the garden, where some repairs were going on. Mr. Paynter having heard the case dismissed the complaint against Mary Joseph, and directed the guardians to institute these proceedings. Mary Joseph was next examined, and her ap pearance excited much curiosity in court. She was attired in a black cloak and bonnet, covered with a thick black crape veil, and a close white cap setting closely to the face. She stated herself to be portress to the Good Shepherd Convent, Hammer smith, which is an institution for the reception of penitent women who have led a loose life. On the 15th of October the prisoner came there with a letter from the Rev. Dr. Connelly, of Moorfields. She gave the name of Angelina Adams. She stayed there that night, but was sent away the next day for deceit, having denied that she had been there before, though recognised by one of the penitents as having been there for some months during the year 1848. Prisoner is a Catholic. Protestants are admitted. Her hair had not been cut off there ; I have nothing to do with that part. Cross-examined—We have no other than Catholic worship within the convent, ,and all who are in there have to attend. Mrs. Maria Gibson, of Upper Seymour-street, a widow, said that she met prisoner at the Catholic Cha pel in Upper Rosoman-street, Clerkenwell. That was in February last. She was wretchedly destitute, and witness took her home to live with her, and kept her for some time. She was suffering from a scrofu lous disease and weakness. After keeping her some time, witness not liking her ways, prisoner left her, and she next saw her in July ; sbe was at her door step in a dreadful state of illness and want ; all her hair had been cut off, which she said had been done at the workhouse when she had the fever. Witness took her to the Free Hospital, Grey's Inn-lane, and then she went to the Charing-cross Hospital, from whence she discharged herself, and witness saw nothing more of her until she was in custody on this charge. B c Mr.HUDDLESTONE—I do not think her mind was affected, hut she seemed dreadfully depressed at her poverty when I first saw her, and I thought she would commit suicide. She is very much to be pitied. She has not a friend, and her sufferings are very gre-it. Sister Ellen, another nun, habited the same as sister Joseph, deposed to letting the prisoner out of the convent on the morning of the 16th of October. Mr. Charles Hibberd, overseer of St. Pancras, proved the prisoner to have been admitted to the house on the 27th of March last. She left on the llth of July. Mr. Waldegrave, the parish surgeon, said her hair was cut off by his direction. Being suffering from fever, she was quite unconscious at the time. She suffered from scrofulous swellings in the abdomen, and was in a very bad state. Julia Smith, nurse at the workhouse, said that she supported her in bed whilst her hair was cut off, which was done by the barber. It further appeared that on the 11th of August she went to the Free Hospital, Gray's Inn-lane, where she left of her own accord on the 29th of August, and on the next day went to Charing-cross Hospital, where she was at once taken in, her case being deemed so urgent. She left there on the 30th of September, against the wishes of the medical autho rities. The Rev. Mr. Conelly, of the Catholic Church, Moorfields, said that on the afternoon of the sth of October his attention was called to the prisoner, who was in the body of the church. She seemed very ill and distressed, and in answer to his questions said she had never been in any place of worship; that she had been an orphan from two years of age ; that she was a prostitute, and had been from thirteen years of age, a life she wished to leave ; and added, that she was then residing at a brothel in Half Moon -street. She seeming sincerely penitent, he gave her some money to get a lodging. Not knowing that she had been at the Hammersmith Convent he communicated with the superior, and gave her the letter that procured her the admission. The Rev. Mr. Long, another priest, said he had known her from her childhood, and had got her into St. Patrick's School. Sh e was brought up as aCa tholic. Upon leaving there she went to a situation, which she left. He ultimately got her into the Good Shepherd Convent. That was in 1848. After some further evidence, Mr. HunneesTorm addressed the jury for the de fence, and in a very eloquent speech dwelt at great length upon the wretched condition of the prisoner, whose statement, he contended, had not been made with any wilfully corrupt intent, but under the in fluence of great mental as well as bodily suffering, and concluded by saying that he felt sure that after what had transpired, not the slightest stain would he attached to the ladies of this most humane and bene volent institution. The jury, after a few minutes' deliberation, Ac quitted her. Mr. BODKIN requested the Common Sergeant to ask on what ground. The Commox SERGEANT said he could not do that. Mr. BODKIN wished to know if than thought her Several of the jury said no. The case seemed to excite great interest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Albert Kionsburg, who was some days age ex amined upon the charge of having obtained utirl r fraudulent pretences a diamond bracelet from Messrs. Lachnisnn, of William-street, Dublin, jewellers, was brought up for final examination, upon the applica tion of one of the firm to send him to that city, by virtue of a warrant issued by a magistrate there. Mr. Yates appeared for the prosecution; Mr. Lewis for the defence, which was " mistaken identity." Robert Navin, an officer of the Dublin mete politan police, said—l produce a warreot, signed "W. Tin deli," a magistrate of Dublin, for the apprehension of Adolph Kielman for obtaining a diamond bracelet under false pretences. I have no knowledge of him, but I believe there are witnesses as to his identity, and that the prisoner is the person. Here Mr. Goodman, the chief clerk, read over the evidence of Mr. J. E Lachmann, one of the partners in the Dublin firm. It stated that the witness had seen the prisoner at the house in William-street as Dr Kielman, from which circumstance, connected with the fact that the witness had received a letter from his brother upon the subject of the fraud, it was presumed that Albert Kionsburg was Dr. Adolph Kielman. A gentleman of commercial respectability had, it appeared, called at the Mansion-house after the pri soner had been remanded on the former day, and offered bail to any amount for his appearance, from the firm conviction of the innocence of the accused, who had positively denied that he knew anything at all about the matter. Mr. Lachmann, cross-examined by Mr. Lewis, said—l was present when the prisoner called upon my brother as Doctor Kielman, and my brother sub sequently acquainted me with the fact, that Doctor Kielman had defrauded him of the article. Mr. Yates said he could carry the case further by further examination of the prosecutor. Mr. Lachmann—l saw the prisoner in London on Thursday evening, and asked him if he knew me. He stuttered for an instant, and gave no answer. I then said, " You do know me ; you have robbed my brother ; you stole a diamond bracelet from him, and committed forgery upon a friend of mine of the name of Harris." He then said, in German, to me, " For God's sake do not bring me into any trouble." I said, " I have no alternative ; I must give you in charge." He said then that he was in the greatest distress, that he had no money or property of any kind except the gold chain round his neck, which was belonging to Mr. Harris. I told the waiter to fetch a policeman. Mr. Yates—ln what language did he make these observations to you ? Witness—ln German. I told him to speak in English, which he understands per fectly, in order that those present might understand him, but he did not. This took place at a house at the corner of the Royal Exchange. Mr. Lewis—Why did you not make use of this statement before ? Witness—Because I thought that what I had stated before was quite sufficient. Mr. Yates submitted that enough had been shown to justify the magistrate in giving up the prisoner to the officer. Mr. Lewis called the attention of the alderman to the stringent nature of the A ct, to support a charge under which it was but reasonable that the testimony should be therefore very clear and distinct. He con tended that the identity of the prisoner with the Doc tor Kiehl - lan accused of the fraud was by no means satisfactory, and he supposed the case of a person personating Doctor Kleiman in Dublin, and obtaining the bracelet upon that misrepresentation. He asked, too, what sort of satisfaction the prisoner was to ex pect if, upon being taken to Dublin, it was admitted that he was not Doctor Kielman Alderman WIRE said that all he had to do in the case was to see that the warrant was a genuine document, and that the prisoner was the person who was believed to be meant in it as chargeable with an indictable offence. As for the doubt which Mr. Lewis seemed to entertain on the subject of retri bution, should the identity happen to be defective, a court of law in either country would soon settle that business. The prisoner then, against the advice of his solici tor, began to remark, and in very good English, upon what he considered to be the inconsistency of the statements of the principal witness, but his appeal to the alderman strengthened the case against him, and he was handed over to the Dublin officer. A young Irish labourer, named John Barry, was charged before the Lord Mayor with having robbed and assaulted Johanna Healey, a countrywoman of his, in Sevenstep-alley, Houndsditch. The statement of the prosecutrix was interrupted by bursts of laughter from a crowd of her dissolute neighbours, who appeared in the justice-room. The LORD MAYOR—Complainant, are you a married woman ? Complainant (after a little hesitation) — Well, I am, I believe. It's two years ago since I saw my first husband. The LORD Me.roa—ls he dead ? Complainant— No, your Lordship, not that I know. The LORD MAYOR—Have you got any family by him ? Complainant—Every one of nine children. The LORD MAYOR—And what do you know of the prisoner at the bar. Is he your second husband ? Complainant—No, your Lordship; but he has been making a fool of me. She then detailed the following facts :—The prisoner had been courting her about three weeks, and as her husband had gone away without giving her notice, she thought she might as well have his place supplied, so she listened to the man who proposed to be his successor, and they went together off to a priest's house, over the water, to get the business done. When they knocked at the door the priest wasn't at home, and they both returned to her house in Sevenstep-alley, after getting leave from the priest's servant, and slept together that night. Next morning, after breakfast, she began to reckon the money she had in her purse, amounting to half a sovereign and some silver, with which she intended to purchase a basket of fruit, but the moment she laid it upon the table up the prisoner whipped the gold, said he was entitled as her husband to all her property, and away he went to buy a new pair of breeches, leaving her with the miserable re mains of her last month's earnings for the support of her family. Finding that he was a common deceiver she determined to quit his acquaintance altogether; but on Tuesday night he walked into her bedroom in his new breeches, and wanted to take up his quarters in the place, to which his reverence's servant told him he had a claim as her intended husband. She virtu ously refused to acknowledge him any more, and in sisted upon his speedy departure from her chamber, whereupon he beat her violently about the head, and was apprehended by the police. The LORD MAYOR (to the complainant)—Have you any witnesses. Complainant—Yes, your wor ship; my daughter was witness to everything that happened between us . Margaret He a l ey, who appeared years old, said, I am her daughter,ao be about l ndsawth pri soner come in and give my mother ever so much im pudence ; my mother got up, and said she would have no more of it, and then he gave her three whacks across the mouth, and set her in a pool of blood ; and he told her he'd have her life. The prisoner —Your Lordship, she followed me everywhere, and bothered me so, that I was obliged to become her husband for a time ; and then she wanted to have it all her own way, and she hit me with her brogue ; so I thought it best to give her a clout or two. The prisoner was fined 20s. for the assault, and not being able to pay the fine was sent to prison for 21 days. BO W-STREET. Benjamin Davis, a well-dressed young man, who has been repeatedly convicted of thieving, was charged with stealing a brace of pistols from the chambers of a gentleman in Duke-street, Adelphi. The prisoner called at seven o'clock in the evening, and seeing a little girl who had the cure of the cham bers, represented himself to her as a friend of her master's, with whom he had made an appointment at the chambers. She said that her master was out, upon which the prisoner entered the rooms, and told her that he would wait for him. After remaining for a few minutes he walked out again, in a suspicious manner, and told her that be would call another time ; and on the following morning it was discovered that a case, containing a brace of pistols, had been stolen. Mr. Kinnaird, a civil engineer, who occupied the chambers, deposed to having missed the pistols, which warn worth 10/. ; and Sergeant West, of the F division, identified the prisoner as a notorious thief, who had usually effected his robberies by pretending to offer newspapers for sale at gentlemen's chambers. The prisoner, who offered no defence, was remanded. William Poole, a lad of 13, who had been employed at the Oriental Club•hou4e as an errand boy, was charged on suspicion of stealing a letter containing two bills of exchange for 6001., and his father was charged with receiving the same. Tne letter had been taken from a letter-box in the ball of the club, The me was remanded for further inquiry, the elder prisoner beiflg litu,ratd on bail. --- EXTRAoRDINARY EWE SIIEEP.—There is now exhibiting in the shop of Mr. Ilaxeltine, butcher, of Dud ley, a most extraordinary fine sheep of the Cotswold or long wool breed.
