Honorary distinctions have their value and im portance : for, they are symbolical. It is thus when any considerable municipality evidences its respect for a great warrior or a great statesman by conferring upon him the so-called rights of citizenship—by pre senting a gold sword to a veteran soldier, or inscrib ing a renowned orator's name upon a burgess ticket. The honour, here, as with most gifts, subsists not in the thing itself, but in what is thereby signified. It is consequently prized by our public men out of all seeming proportion. It is even considered of im portance by them when they are enrolled among the members of one or other of the more distinguished of the great City Companies. Insomuch that many an other King's Chamberlain besides POLONWS might lite rally be answered on his asking if he were remembered —" Excellent well, you are a Fisk' . on ger !"—or a Gold smith, or a Spectacle-maker, or what not, as the case might be. Other corporations than that of London are in the habit of testifying their appreciation of distinguished public services precisely in the same way, and none among them seizes the rare oppor tunities for doing this which present themselves in the lifetime of a generation, more eagerly, more generously, or more conspicuously than the dis tinguished corporation of Edinburgh. The Free dom of the City there, as in London, is bestowed, at uncertain intervals, upon one another of our Public Men, quite irrespective of party polities. A. Liberal Lord Mayor or a Liberal Lord Provost might at these times with per fect consistency pronounce a glOwing eulogium upon a Tory Administrator. Or—of course—vice versa: a Tory Lord Provost might do the like without any derogation from his consistency by pronouncing a warm panegyric upon the member of a Liberal Go vernment. It is the Eminent Citizen of a free empire, not the Party Chief, who is honoured upon these occa sions. And it is, therefore, not incongruous ou the part of the Right lion. Wm. CHAMBERS, the Lord Provost of Edinburgh, that within so brief an interval it should have fallen to his lot to enroll as burgesses and freemen of Edinburgh, and to eulogize in cor dial terms of admiration, each in turn, as an Orator, and it may be added even as a Reformer of illus trious and historical reputation, now the right hon. member for Buckinghamshire, Mr. DISRAELI, now one of the most formidable of his opponents, one occupying a seat below the gangway on the other side of the House of Commons, a great Orator and Tribune of the People, such as Mr. BIIIGIIT, the member for Birmingham. Party politics upon these occasions are forgotten. They are felt to be out of place. Direct reference to them at such moments would be worse than a gaucherie—would be a betise. It was so evidently regarded only yesterday at Edinburgh, when the Lord Provost presented to Mr. Bnionr the certifi cate constituting him a burgess and freeman of Edinburgh. Eveu on the verge of a General Election, partizan views of any kind did not admit, there and then, of enforcement. Speaking, as he doubtless always does, from his conscience, Mr. BRIGHT had, for once, to speak in a manner exclusively (to adopt the Prime Minister's phrase) from his historical con science. His remarks were, for the most part, retro spective. They were almost necessarily so, for inas much as the privileges of citizenship then conferre 1 upon the member for Birmingham were so conferred on him " especially" on account of his brilliant and successful services in the promotion of Free-trade. A recognition of those services, by the way, rather after date after date by more than a score of years! But, no matter. Better late than never—and, so conferred, the recognition of those long-past services could not but be acknow ledged by the great Free Trader, with especial refer ence to those his earliest and, we cannot but think, his most resplendent achievements. Referring thus, to those historical achievements, it is particularly noticeable that; Mr. BRIGHT yesterday did not arrogate to himself honours that were not justly his own. He availed himself, on the contrary, of that conspicuous opportunity —eagerly seizing it, indeed, as a golden occasion upon - . which to do now as Sir ROBERT PEEL did three and twenty years ago—to place the palm-crown where it was merited, namely, where it would encircle the name of the true victor in that bloodless field of glory, the simple, noble, honoured name of RICHARD COBDEN. Speaking of the tremendous struggle in which he was engaged between twenty and thirty years ago, in companionship with Mr. COBDEN, the member for Birmingham yesterday remarked, "I worked at-it for seven years, and for five years almost without interruption, and I did nothing else but work for free trade duriog these years—in alliance, as you know, with one of the most remarkable men that our country has ever produced, and one of Vie best men than any now living have ever known." And he added—" When I look back to him whose name must ever ba foremost in any history or memory of that struggle, when I consider his remarkable industry, his wonderful sagacity, his enlarged information, the combined force and gen tleness of his character, his most persuasive speech, when I look back upon his transcendant merits, I confess I am amazed that it took all that, and the energy, and the labour, and the resolution of scores and hundreds of thousands besides, to re peal the Corn Laws. I say lam amazed that on so clear a question it should be neces sary to make so great an effort to bring Par liament and the people to comprehend their true interests." And yet it was so ; and it is only in remembrance of the fact of its having been so, that the country can to the full appreciate its own profound and lasting obligation to men like Mr. COBDEN, Mr. BRIGHT, Mr. VILLIERS, Mr. GIBSON, and others who were associated with them in that grand movement. Cogently put—put with all the poignancy of wit and all the force of a syllogism— was the great truth those patriotic reformers were then during so many years vainly striving to bring home to the popular judgment, when Mrs. SOMERVILLE wrote that memorable sentence (so aptly quoted yesterday by ➢ir. BRIGHT in his speech at Elinburgh) —" Surely as much food as a man can bay, with as much wages as a man can get, for as much work as a man can do, is not more than the natural, inalien able birthright of every man whom GOD has created with strength to labour and with hands to work." Noble words—a noble utterance : than which, as Mr. BRIGHT said yesterday "nothing can be more simple, nothing more true, nothing more conclu sive." And yet, for all that, words embodying a truth which could only be beaten into shape upon the sounding anvil of the Anti-Corn-Law- League. Of that League the two foremost men, beyond all comparison, were Mr. COBDEN and Mr. BRIGHT. Mr. COBDEN was there, at the head of them all, facile princeps. But after him, directly after him, stood forth the name of Mr. BRlGHT—distancing all competitors. Not one of the other members of the League approached him in energy, in eloquence, in burning and soul-born enthusiasm. His enthusiasm has never abated, his energies have never relaxed, his eloquence has ripened, so to speak, and has become in a manner so far perfected by practice that he is recognized by Whigs and Tories alike, by Liberals and Conservatives, as the first of all the Orators of his time, as Lord DERBY is still, when at his best, the first of all Debaters. Always impulsive and impetu ous ; often--to our thinking—mistaken in his views, ungenerous in his denunciations, and ex travagant in his assertions, Mr. BRIGHT is throughout (we cannot but think, even when we re gard him as the most mistaken, the most ungenerous, and the most extravagant) actuated by the highest and the most unimpeachable motives, motives the most patriotic and the most conscientious. His faults, however, were not among the faults of Mr. COBDEN. The latter—without those faults, faults of all the most fatal to an administrator —was, more than once during the closing years of his life, offered in vain high position among the Cabinet Ministers, under Lord PALMERSTON'S Premiership. It is very generally understood, now, that, upon the formation of the next Liberal Government, a positio❑ of that kind will not only be offered to, but accepted by, Mr. COB NEN'S many years colleague, Mr. BRIGHT. In the interests of his country, and in those also of his own reputation—if only he could temper his judgment to the equable serenity of his great coadjutor in the days of the League ! If only he could acquire somewhat of the calm and force of toleration ! Perhaps—with the responsibili ties of office (it is our only hope in his regard) there may come that mitigation of what we may call his constitutional arrogance : there may come at last — when it is most'needed--- -some shew at least of gracious toleration towards his antagonists. IT is stated that no fewer than 201 cases are down for trial at the Divorce Court for the term which opened on Monday. This is an unusually and lamentably large number. It may be said that they bear only an intmitesimal proportion to tlte immic,or of marriages. But as it is generally only in the last extremity that husband or wife resort to Sir JAMES WILDE, it is to be feared that the proportion of unhappy marriages is anything but infinitesimal. In most of these two hundred and one cases patience has been tried beyond endurance. In a far larger number the last ounce has not yet been laid upon the overburdened back ; yet there has been misery where there ought to have been happiness, cruelty where there ought to have been tenderness, constant bickerings where there ought to have been words of love, blows where there ought to have been caresses. As a rule, it is only when the measure of sorrow has run over that a man or a woman will proclaim to all the world that a cruel blunder has been made, that happiness and honour have been shipwrecked. The Divorce Court no more represents the number of wretched marriages than the Registrar-General's returns of deaths represent the number of persons suffering from headache or any other ailment that is not fatal. But while men and women will, for the most part, refrain from appearing before the judge, even when they have good reason to seek his aid, there are a few that resort to him whom he ought to dismiss with censure. It is very clear that the Divorce Court is in danger of being used by immoral persons as a means of escaping from a bond which checks their licentiousness. A pair, of loose morals, who have got tired of each other and wish to enter upon other connections, will deliberately connive at each other's sin, in order to obtain a dis solution of the marriage bond. There are, again, men who will deliberately marry girls of damaged reputations with the intention of suing for a divorce when weary of the union, knowing well that they will always be able to find arguments in support of their suit if they will but place their frail partners in the way of temptation. Cases like these require the keenest discrimination on the part of the judge. It is the interest of all parties to deceive him ; while he, acting in the interests of public morality, has to exer cise all his faculties in defending himself against deception. Sir JAMES WILDE has already shewn that he is not easily misled. We should not be sur prised if some of these two hundred and one cases afford him further opportunity for exposing and frustrating an immoral conspiracy. NEW DIVORCE .ACT.—The new Act passed in the late session will practically take effect during the present sittings of the court. Where there is no appeal, the re spective parties aro at liberty to marry again as soon as the decree absolute is pronotuced. CHANCERY SALES.—The official returns show that 817 sales of estates were made last year under orders of the Court of Chancery. The amount realised was X 2,000,551. In the preceding year the amount was X 1,787,518. THE CIVIL SERVICE.--The thirteenth report of her Majesty's Civil Service Commission, together with appendices, was published yesterday morning. The report itself contains a summary review of all tho proceedings of the commissioners from May, 1855, up to the last day of Juno in the present year. During that period the total number of candidates whose names have appeared upon the lists have been 59,658. Tho actual number. however, which came before the board for their decision was 46,523, and of these certificates of qua lification wore granted in 28,596 cases. Of the remainder, however, only f',461 were rejected as abso7utely dis qualified. THE WOMAN'S KINGDOM. By the Author of "John Halifax Gentleman," &c. 3 vols.—" The 'Woman's Kingdom' sustains the author's reputation as a writer of the finest and noblest kind of domestic stories. The main object of the narrative is indicated with unusual clearness by the title. And women, whose lives are made up of work and love, and busy men, whose various occupations and natural hardness, allow them leisure and humour for the occasional p,rusal of pleasant talL s of homely intereat, will agree in thinking that the novelist's lesson is given with admirable force and sweetness."—Athentewn.

He came to this city to esta blish a Water Cure Institution at Moyerelli, near Bucharest, but the scheme, owing to the want of capital, has been given up. POLICE IN7'ELLIG ENCE-- This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. STEALING MARKED MONEY.--Robert Noble, a young man in the employ of Mr. Job Keevil, whole sale and retail cheesemonger, of No. 273, Oxford street, as a shopman, was charged before Mr. Tyr whitt with stealing a half sovereign, the money of his master. Mr. Froggatt appeared for the prosecution, and in opening the case said that the prisoner had been in the employ of the prosecutor about six months, and during that time he bad lost a considerable sum of money, and yesterday Sergeant Cole of the C division having been communicated with, he took such steps as led to the detection of the pri soner as the thief. Mr. Froggatt then called Mr. Tray ton White, foreman to Mr. Keevil, who said that during the past six months he had fre quently missed money—always gold. Yesterday, about four o'clock, he counted the money in the gold till, and found three sovereigns, two half sovereigns, and a £5-note. At five o'clock he again counted the money, and found the amount to be the same as before, and any gold which had been taken ought to have been dropped into the till, of which he (witness) kept the key. About half-past five Sergeant Cole, who had previously been com municated with, came in and called the prisoner into the back parlour, and he was then taken into custody. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witn-ss said he had missed considerable sums from the till at diffe rent times. _ _ Mrs. Grant proved receiving a half sovereign from Sergeant Cole marked with cross on the top of the corner, and on going to the shop of Mr. Keevil yesterday, and making a purchase of the prisoner, gave him the halt sovereign. The prisoner put the half sovereign into the till with the silver, and in taking out some silver to give her change she noticA him take out the half sove reign, lay it on the table, and then placed a piece of paper over it, and she then communicated with Sergeant Cole. Sergeant Colo of the C division, said that in consequence of a communication from Mr. Keene, he marked half a sovereign and gave it to the last witness, and in consequence of information he went yesterday afternoon to Mr. Keevil's and called the prisoner into the parlour in the presence of Mr. White, and told him that he (Cole) was a police officer, and asked him if he had any objection, as Mr. Keevil had been losing large sums of money, to show him what money he had about him. The prisoner said he had one half-sovereign, but after wards said he had two, and in producing them one was the marked one, and he (Cole) then told him that he should take Lim into custody. The prisoner replied, .‘ Well, I do not know how I came to do it, and what possessed me to do it 1 cannot tell. It is the first time I ever did anything of the sort, and I hope Mr. Keevil will forgive me and bail me." The prisoner, who was in tears after being con victed, said—l have nothing more to say but that I took the half-sovereign, and I am very sorry for it. Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for trial. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 4,186 g. WESTMLNSTER. A WELL-DRESSED SCAMP.--A gentlemanly-look ing well-dressed young man, who gave the name of Alexander Shann, and appeared about 25 years of age, was charged with robbing lodging-houses where he had gone under the pretence of looking for apartments. On Tuesday fortnight the prisoner went to the house of Mrs. Wood, 6, St. Holbrake-terrace, St. John's-hill, New Wandsworth, and inquired about rooms for himself and his daughter, a little girl at school. He was shown them, and while Mrs. Wood went down into the kitchen to get a pen and ink he went up stairs again, and was met coming down by Mrs. Wood. The excuse he made was that he went up to look for a book-case to put his books in. Di rectly he went a gold watch ancliehain, value £12,. were missei, and he was not seen again until in custody. He was not so fortunate at 3, Montpelier-square, Brompton, the house of Mr. Morier, on Wednesday week. He was shown over the rooms, stating he had come from India, and while upstairs a watch was taken out of a drawer. lie was detained in the drawing room, and after a policeman was fetched the watch was found by the servant on the drawing room shelf. It was not there wh en h e entered the house, but in one of the bedrooms he had visited. At the station he refused his name and address. He was remanded till Tuesday. THAMES. ROBBING READY FURNISHED LODGINGS.-.-Her_ man Lordes, a German, of No. 4, Stanley-place, Sandy-end, Fulham, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing eight sheets, two white counterpanes, 10 towels, one stuff dress, 12 yards of gingham, and a black shawl, the property of John Muller and Catherine Muller, his wife, of No. 175, Cable-street, Whitechapel. The prisoner lodged for some time in the house of the Mullers, and a few weeks ago he suddenly disappeared, and the articles mentioned disap peared with him. He was subsequently arrested in Fulham, and pawnbrokers' duplicates relating to a portion of the stolen property found upon him. Two paWnbrokers' assistants produced the pro perty, and Mrs. Muller identified it. The prisoner was living in her home in June last. The prisoner, in defence, said that a sheet, which Mrs. Muller identified, was pawned before he left her house. During part of the time he lo•lged in the house he had charge of it. There were eleven other lodgers in the house, and all of them went out early in the morning. Mr. rapt committed the prisoner for trial. THE BISHOP OX SLAVERY. The Bishop or Oxford spoke at the annual meeting of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa, held at Liverpool on Monday. At the close of a long and elo quent address, the right rev. prelate observed : One of the objections put forward to the Universities' Mission was that because great difficulties, great disappointments, and deep sorrow had attended its first movements, therefore they had better abandon the thing and give it up in despair. Now he maintained that that was an absolute want of faith. When had there ever been anything done for God, as to which he did not test the faithfulness of those who set about doing it by bringing them into the winter of adversity, in order at once to try and to per fect their trust? He thought there were reasons why they should expect difficulties in the beginning of this work. They should remember that the efforts of Britain for the conversion of Africa was not a mere thanks offering, but rather an expression of true penitence for misdoing. They saw the great cause of the suffer ing of Africa at the present moment in the miserable demoralisation wrought by the accursed slave trade. Who had been the principal abettors and foxuentors of that trade, but we, the people of England? It should be remembered that mere sorrow for the past was not repent ance. True repentance was in trying to make amends for the wrong that had been done. His lordship resumed his seat amid loud applause. THE MONEY-LENDERS AGAIN, Vice-Chancellor Stuart has had before him the case of Burnett v. Boss and Beyfus, in which Mr. T. A. Roberts, on behalf of Captain Burnett, moved ex parte for an injunction against Messrs. Boss and Beyfus, discounters, Maddox-street, under these circumstances :—On the 26th of May last Captain Burnett went to the office of the de fendants and obtained from them an advance of £9O, and subsequently of £lOO, for which he gave them two bills of exchange for £3OO each, an assign ment of his cornmision money, and a warrant of attorney ; but they gave him a letter by which they under took to accept £3OO in full discharge of their claims, if paid on or before the 3d of October. On the 3d of August, how ever, they signed judgment for £1,200 on the warrant of attorney. On the 3d of October Captain Burnett went with a friend to Maddox-street to pay £3OO, but he found the offices of the defendants closed and nobody to re ceive the money. They now insisted that he must pay £6OO, the full amount of the two bills of exchange, although he had received only £l9O, and had paid £5 as expenses. The Vice-Chancellor granted an injunction restraining the de fen !ants from availing themselves of their securities on the plaintiff bringing £l9O into court, to which he at once as. sented. The Anglo-American Submarine Telegraph Cora pany have established an office in Paris to enable people to send messages to the United States direct from Paris. The Cork. Examiner states that the late Irish Chief Justice Lefroy is to be at length rewarded with a peerage (Irish). Ile is over 90 years of ago. At the sitting of the Court of Queen's Bench, Mr. Justice Haynes and Mr. Justice Brett were sworn in— the former as one of the puisne judges of this court, and the latter as one of the puisne judges of the Court of Ccmmon Pleas. Mr. Baron Ckasby was also sworn as a baron of the Exchequer. Notice was given in the Court of Common Pleas that the Hon. Mr. Justice Willes bad, by the other judges of that court, been selected to be placed upon the rota for the trial of election petitions during tho ensuing year. No fewer than fifteen bakers in Sberborno and the ne;ghbenrirg villages in Dorset were fined last week for selling bread undcr weight. In order to meet the fines levied they raised the price of bread a penny a gallon im mediately. The Rev. E. W. Whately, an Irish incumbent, has undertaken to say that if his father, the famous Archbishop of Dublin, had lived to take part in the present struggle on the Irish Church he would have been found on the side of Mr. Disraeli. "He would have been either foi the disestab rnent of both the Irish and English Churches, or for neither." EDUCATION IN THE COLONY OF VICTORIA. — The report of the Board of Education for 1867-68 states that it has been estimated that 17'93 per cent., or one in 5'58 of the total population, and 61'32, or nearly two out of three, children between five and fifteen years of age, are attending schools with a degree of regularity which is not equalled either iu England or America. Steps are being taken to secure a local memorial of the Rev. Dr. 11'Neile, the new Dean of Ripon. A large num ber of the Dean's friends Lave met together and formed a committee to secure the erection, in Livcipool, of a marble statue to commemorate his scrvices to i eligion and educa tion; and to assist the movement subscriptions are invited. The Futscriptions are limited to .£5 from each person, so that the memorial may really iedfcate the feelings of a large number of the inhabitants of the town and the neigh bourhood. The opponents of Mr. Roebuck, at Sheffield, are determined to " leave no stone ut Wined" which shall c nsure his jection. TL ey have discovered that he was the chairman of the Estates Bank, whose "smash" caused so much suffering amongst its shareholders. That they do net give any credit to Mr. Roebuck for ex treme purity may be imagined. Loud are they in their de nunciations. So far have they gone that the journal support ing Mr. Roebuck has reason to believe that the attack upon that gentleman will be made the ground of legal proceedings at an early day. GLASGOW UNIVERSITY.—The students of Glasgow University are bestirring themselves in view of the election of Lord Rector, the term of office of the Lord Justice-Gene ral (Mr. John Inglis) expiring this year. On Monday, immediately after the opening of the winter session, the students belonging to the Conservative Club met, and unanimously nominated Lord Stanley for election. The Liberal Club met at the same time, when the names of Gladstone, Mr. Lowe, and Mr. Bright were proposed. On a show of hands being taken, the nomination of Mr. Bright was carried by a large majority. OUTBREAK OF FEVER.—Fever is raging to a very serious extent in Falmouth. There is great complaint of the sanitary condition of the town, and a large number of the principal inhabitants, finding that neither the borough nor the parish local board would attempt to carry out an efficient system of drainage, have memorialised the Home Secretary on the subject. Both boards have the powers of the Local Government Act, and although the parish board has been in existence five years, and the borough board about two years, the sanitary condition of the town is, it is contended, if anything, worse than ever. TIIE EARL OF DERBY BECOMING A TAILOR.— At a meeting of the North Staffordshire Licensed Victuallers' Society, at Stoke, on Thursday, Mr. C. B. Adderley, M.P., who presided, told the following amusing story of the Earl of Derby. His lordship had been ad mitted a member of the ancient guild of tailors, and seeing him shortly afterwards, he (Mr. Adderley) said, "Do you know what you have been swearing, Lord Derby ?" His lordship replied that he did not. " Well, then," said Mr. Adderley, " I have read the oath, and you have sworn that you will take to:tailoring., and do nothing else all your life." The thirteenth rep3rt of her Majesty's Civil Ser vice Commission, together with appendices, was pub lished on Tuesday. The report itself contains a sum mary review of all the proceedings of the commissioners from May, 1855, up to the last of June in the present year. During that period the total number of candidates whose names have appeared upon the lists, has been 59,658. The actual number, however, which came before the board for their decision was 46,523, and of these certificates of qualification were granted in 28,596 cases. Of the remainder, however, only 9,461 were rejected as absolutely disqualified. THE PUBLIC HEALT/I.—The mortality in London continues to be exceptionally heavy. The deaths regis tered last week were 1,521, exceeding by 151 the average number, and by 100 those of the previous week. The annual rates of mortality in fourteen of the principal towns, per 1,000 of the population, were—Bristol and Birmingham, 20 ; Sheffield, 21 ; Dublin, 24 ; London, Edinburgh, and Bradford, 25 ; Hull and Newcastle-on- Tyne, 26 ; Salford and Leeds, 27 ; Liverpool, 29 ; Man chester, 30 ; and Glasgow, 34. In the present return is mentioned the death of a woman in St. Margaret's Work house, Westminster, at the age of 100, leaving five sons and daughters, and a host of grandchildren and great. grandchildren. Her eldest son is 73, and her eldest daughter 75. DivoncE APPEALS. —An Act of Parliament, passed in the late session, will practically come into force during the present sittings of the court. The object of the Act is to prevent unnecessary delay in the final deter. mination of suits for dissolution or nullity of marriage. Liberty is now given, when there is no right to appeal, to the parties to marry again at any time after the pro nouncing of the decree absolute. Appeals to the House of Lords are to be within one month. No appeal is to bt allowed in undefended suits for dissolution of marriage unless by leave of the court. It is enacted that " this Act shall extend to all suits pending at the time when the same shall come into operation, notwithstanding that a decree may have been pronounced therein ; provided, nevertheless, that this Act shall not affect any pending appeal, nor shall the same prejudice any subsisting righ of appeal aaainst a decree already pronounced, provide, such appeal be lodged within one calendar month afte this Act shall come into operation."

BEES, TVIHTEHAVEN. this opportunity of mentioning Dr. Newman's name; neither should he forget to mention the name of Mr. Charlton, who had Leen a great and noble benefactor to the work. (Applause.) He called upon the company to drink the health of the arcbi tect and benefactors. Mr. CIIARLTON responded, and thanked his Grace the Archbishop for so kindly including his name as one of the benefactors of the church just (From the fiThitehaven Herald.) This church, which was solemnly opened on Thursday last, is perhaps one of the most striking buildings which has yet been reared in England for Catholic purposes. Its conception is altogether bold and novel. Some might say that it set at de fiance what has been hitherto considerej a funda mental principle of Gothic architecture, viz., the multiplication, and not the magnifying of Darts. Be this as it may, it is a great success, and both within and without bears evidence of treatment upon wheli few would have dared to venture, and which in the hands of any but a man conscious of his own power would inevitably have proved a fai:ure. The building is 124 feet long by GO wide, and Cl feet high. It is constructed entirely of Walk Mill stone with Birkham stone dressings, both supplied from quarries in thc immediate neigh bourhood. The doors are of oak, and the tym panum of the doorway is carved with figures of our Divine Lord blesing St. Bees. The builder of this very beautiful esifice is oar townsman, Mr. Cousins, who may well be proud of his work. He has carried out most intelligently and carefully, in all their elaboration and fitness of detail, the designs of the architect, Mr. E. Welby Pugin. opene 1. Mr. THO3IAS BURTON (from London) returned thanks on behalf of the architect, Mr. Welby Pugin. The proceedings then terminated. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. - - Before - the Chief Justices, and Justices Bylo, Keating, and Brett.) SIMPSON V. MULLETT. Mr. Bulwer moved for a rule calling upon the plaintiff to show cause why the verdict given in this case should not be set aside. The trial origitiallY took place at Ipswich, and the jury gave 3 verdict for the plaintiff for £5O, the matter in dis pute being who was to receive the stakes deposited to abide the result of a wager. The stakehold er laboured under some difficulty, as one of the per' sons principally interested in the wager, which was to run from Ipswich to the Bull Inn, Aldgate, and back in thirty-six hours, repudiated the articles which had been drawn up, and therefore the wager never came off. The action was for the value of the stakes, but the holder of the money thought, as the wager had never taken place, he was justified in withholding a portion , the stakes until it was decided who should recei o them. The Lord Chief Justice said the Court would grant the rule, but after consultation with yis learned brothers he had to couple with the intima tion a suggestion that the £25 should be hande d back to the person who deposited it, leaving each party to pay their own costs. The Court thought that would be the most charitable way ef settling the matter, which was full of difficulty. in the Court of Exchequer their lordships well occupiel with a question relative to the payment 0' a bill of exchange, and the Judge Ordinary Os engaged in hearing an intricate probate case. FORGERIES OF TRADE MARKS.. AN UNPARILLELED PIECE OF IMPUDENCE• It is well known that Continental traders—Ge r " mans in particular—have been in the habit of irn i " Wing the trade marks of English manufacture rs of note, and under cover of these forg.nies of s3lling base imitations of English goods. For merly there was no means of checking thes e frauds ; but the commercial treaty with Prussi a ' and the exertions of the Association for the pro' tection of British Trade Marks, have rendered ope' rations of this kind somewhat hazardous. Ce ll ' sequently, the pressure of fear is beginning t ° effect a reform which regard for honesty was power' less to bring about. The audacity of the forgeri es referred to is well illustrated by a circumstan ce , just come to our knowledge. Messrs. W. Bartle' and Sons, the eminent Redditch needle maker e ' have been amongst the chief sufferers by b 53 imitations of their goods and trade marks" needles of the worst description having been s old in Germany under cover of labels purporting to b e issued by the Redditch firm. The other day, gl ee this fraudulent trade became dangerous to th °sel engaged in it, Messrs. Bartleet received from 3 Prussian firm a packet of labels professing to b c : their own, and so closely imitated as to deceive v O O only ordinary purchasers, but almost the roak er t themselves. With these labels, Messrs. Bar tleet received the following letter : Meg " Having given up the manufactory of ne e— f since several years, we have still a quantity labels with [of] your firm, which, before the Ore mercial treaty with Prussia, we were allowed to us e ' and which we did, according to the orders of our customers. if We enclose a few labels, and would ask yo ,t t you are inclined to take them at one-third the CO3 price. Waiting your reply, we are," &c. Ive The exquisite impudence of this production is , ja fancy, unmatched in the annals of trade piracy.

After the conclusion of the morning service, the Archbishop, Bishop, clergy, and a number of lay friends dined in the Globe. The Archbishop oc cupied the chair, and he was supported on the right by the Bishop (Dr. Chadwick) and P. 11. Howard, Esq., of Corby ; and on the left by A. B. Steward, Esq., of Newton Manor, and the Very Rev. P. A. Allinson, Provincial of the Order of Benedictines. After dinner, The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of Pope Pius the Ninth. He alluded to the rumours which were current about the Pope being in bad health, but he was happy to say that so far from that being the case, he had private letters from Rome, and from those about the Holy Father, which stated that his health was perfectly good, and that he was vigorous and in high spirits. Ile (the chairman) read yesterday in the railway a sentence by a writer who was certainly no friend of the Catholic Church—he meant Gibbon, the historian—that sentence was to the effect that the temporal Go vernment of the Pope was " free from the dangers of a minority, the excesses of youth, the expenses of luxury, and the calamities of war. He (the speaker) held that the Pope was the highest type of a Christian sovereign the world had ever known. (The toast was drunk amid applause.) The CHAIRMAN again rose and proposed the health of her Majesty the Queen. (Applause.) He believed that the reign of her Majesty would be re garded as a reign of justice, a reign in which in equalities and distinctions which were galling to her people were (because justice required it) re morselessly swept away. (Hear, hear.) He briefly showed the advantages of Government by union over government by division. In the face of con solidated France, united Italy, and Germany rising into a Great Power, it appeared to him that this was not the time when England should remain dis united, and anything that could make England, Scotland, and Ireland one in heart and one in mind, was not only the policy of justice but the policy of safety. (Applause.) He would not go further into detail, because that would not be fitting on such an occasion as the present. He went on to remark that during the reign of her present Ma ' jesty the Catholic Church had enjoyed more and more of just and equitable dealing. (Applause.) Mr. HOWARD proposed the health of his grace the Lord Archbishop of Westminster. (Applause.) He believed this was the first time the Archbishop had come so far north to take part in a great religious ceremonial. [A. voice—" On the west coast."] The Archbishop had come here to be present at the opening of a church of no little architectural pre tensions, which bad just been opened by the re nowned Ordt•r of St. Benedict. Ile need hardly say anything in proposing the health of the Metropo litan of England, because he was well known by reputatio:i to the Catholic Church for his zeal, and to the world at large by his great attainments in literature and learning. (Applause.) The CHAIRMAN thanked the company very cor dially for the manner in which his health bp,' been drunk. He accepted the honour with great thank fulness, because it was to him a pledge of their kindly goodwill and sympathy, for without such goodwill and sympathy he should almost feel too weak to bear the burden laid upon him. The burden was this, that it would be ahnoat impossible for him to make a false step without involving them all in its consequences. He was glad to say that he re ceived from all parts of England kindly assurances, which gave him strength sufficient to hold out against many storms that blow. (Applause.) He was responsible for seeing that he made no mistake which would involve the whole province in its con sequences, but it was also his consolation to know that he derived his support from an equally exten sive field. In the performance of his duties he bad to go north, south, east, and west; and he had . frequently the refreshment and renewal of confi dence which such expressions as theirs conveyed. Ho need only say it had been to him a real happiness to come to Whitehaven ; and it had been a real happiness to see the love and unity of Catho lics in this place ; to see how peaceably and chari tably they were bound together, and how the love of the Catholic Church had manifested itself all around them. (Applause.) The Rev. Mr. LYNASS then proposed the health of Dr. Chadwick, Bishop of Ilexham. The Bishop returned thanks. The CHAIR3IAN, in proposing the President and Provincials of the Order of St. Benedict, spoke in high terms of that order, and expressed the pleasure it gave him to meet so many members of the order on that occasion. The Very Rev. P. A. ALLINSON, Provincial of the Benedictines, in responding, entered at consi derable length into the history of the order, and concluded by proposing the clergy and laity of the diocese of Hexhana and Newcastle. The Very Rev. .Monsignore E 1 RE returned thanks on behalf of the clergy, and Mr. JAMES DEES on behalf of the laity of the diocese. The CHAIRMAN said they had come to what he might call the'toa.st of the evening. They had come to Whitehaven to rejoice with the flock of White haven over the completion of this beautiful church ; and he was now about to ask them to drink to the health of Father Lynass and his flock. (Applause.) There was an old saying that when a priest began to build a church he should order his coffin ; and that was nearly true; very few priests survived long after building a church, although he hoped Father Lynass meant to be an exception to that rule. The labour, toil, and vexation. connected with such a work were very considerable ; and it re quired great zeal and perseverance on the part of the priest, and great kindness on the part of the flock. (Applause.) lle begged to propose the health of Mr. Lynass and bis flock. 111 r. LYNASS, in responding, said he should have pleasure in telling his flock how the great Arch bishop had spoken of them, and thereby show them that their work had not gone unnoticed. Dr. New man had also written that although unable to be present in body he should be present in spirit. (Ap plause.) The CHAIRMAN said one more duty remained. The Church which bad that day been opened was one of singular beauty. It was spacious and graceful, and it was so arranged as to be exceedingly well fitted for the divine purposes for which it was intended. Its spacious aisle, its large unobstructed nave, and the appointments of the choir were well adapted for the worship of the Catholic Church. In fact, the architecture was of singular beauty, and he felt that they should not part without drinking the health of the architect and all benefactors, and among them his dear old friend Dr. Newman. his first friendship with Dr. Newman was formed in the year 1829, verging upon forty years since, and it had been one of his most valued friendships. Dr. Newman's character and his consistent life as a humble Catholic priest made him a ltuninou.s exam 7,r bin} rt n ff.} A ut Tr. TIER MAJESTY. BALMORAL CASTLE, Nov. 2.

(Before Justices Byles, Hannen, a,nd Hayes.) STEELE V. TIIE MIDLAND RAILWAY COMPANY. Tills case, which has been repeatedly before the various courts, occupied the attention of their lordships this morning, an application being made by Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., on the part of Mr. Steele, to set aside the award which had been made by a jury on the ground that the assessor had not properly put the case to the jury for their decision. "Ihe point in question seems to be that the company, having injured Mr. Steele's pro perty by the small part they had taken, should be compelled to take the whole of it, which they were not willing to do.
