TRANSPORT OF TROOPS BY RAILWAY. The commission appointed last session to receive evidence on the relative merits of the broad and narrow gauges has sat several times, but the information obtained has, with one exception, possessed very little, if any, interest for the public generally. The exception to which we allude is that of the evidence given at the sitting of the commission on Wednes day, when Sir Willoughby Gordon, Quarter-Master- General of her Majesty's forces, was examined relative to th 3 facili ties afforded by railways for the transport of troops. The fol lowing is a condensed report of the General's evidence : For the last three years and a half, ending the 30th of June, there were conveyed by railway 212,000 persons, of whom 9,600 were women and 11,000 children, without a single i accident being reported—a security previously unknown by any other mode of conveyance for troops. Has no preference for the broad or narrow gauge. Knew nothing of their com parative merits. Had never any want of accommodation on either. All the railway companies were anxious to meet the views of the Horse Guards. had as much accommodation as if the railways were under his own direction. By the CIIAIR3LAN—In case of war, could the railways be made available for the defence of the country? Witness— Certainly. The effect of the rapidity of the railways was such that they could do as much with a small army as could have formerly been done with a large one. The break of a gauge would diminish these advantages. The practical in eonveniencewould be similar to that o f a f erry . G reat in convenience would result crwii iiint of Cover. I know . the stations at Paddington and at Slough, and am enabled to speak of them. The break of a gauge at Slough would cause great inconvenience from the delay that it would occasion. It would be very inconvenient to unpack the baggage and ammunition after they ha been once stowed away. The effect to cavalry would be ;he same. When cavalry were removed, the horses were plas.e,4 in boxes lightly nailed up, and they came out of them r.Trer a journey of 100 miles per fectly fresh. 'The removal i'rif infantry, which might be ac complished in nine hourstrbx ,railway, would require 17 marchings, to effect the same distance. The expense by rail way is less. With regard lo cavalry, the horses cost no more than if they were in stable,.the only expense is for the men. The CHAIRMAN—Do )e:iu, think the Government should keep a portion of the railway stations for the carriages and boxes for the horses? Witness—ln time of war it might be desirable to have a stack of; , ,virriages and boxes at the dis posal of the Government. Hi my opinion an uniformity of gauge would be advantageous. It has been suggested that in case of an insurrection there would be a danger that the railways might be broken up. Ido not think that could be easily done. If such a thing was expected, patrols might be stationed on the line; the military would take care to pro vide against anything of that kind. The CHAULIIAN.—What would be the effect of lines of rail way along the coast in a military point of view. Wit ness—During the last war we had large bodies of troops along the coast in Kent, Sussex, and Devonshire, at a great expense ; but now we could concentrate our forces at one point. When the last war first broke out we had troops in Essex, Norfolk, Northampton, and so on northward. We had, besides, large bodies of troops in Kent, Sussex, Hamp shire, and Devonshire, which were all separate corps, and could not be moved without great labour and expense. In a similar state of things it would be much better to concentrate them at a central point in the interior, to be conveyed to the coast as might be required. The CHAIRMAN.—Then you think this point should be a focus, with radii diverging to the coast. Have you formed any opinion where that point should be fixed? Wit ness—l, have not. That would have to be decided on. ' There might be more than one point. The Martello Towers, which it was at one time suggested should be sold, might be very useful in repelling the approach of hostile steamers. this closed General Gordon's examination. RAILWAY SURVEYING.—On Sunday night, or rather on Monday morning., the gamekeepers in the employ of George Savile Foljambe, Esq., of Osberton-ball, Notting hamshire, were alarmed by seeing lights in various direc tions. 'Under the expectation of capturing a gang of poach ers, the keepers bore down, and came upon a whole troop of surveyors, employed for one of the Lincoln and Retford lines of railway. One party presented their pieces ; the other levelled their surveving-poles, with the flag at one end and shod With iron on the other, like so many foot-lancers. Now, did not strict truth forbid it, there would he here a fine field for filmy to describe the battle that ensued; but it so hap pened that the gamekeepers, finding the other party th e stronger o assinf the two, an d a l so that they were not poach ers , but treSpg by night to make a survey which their master pad forbidden by day, thought that discretion was the better part of valour, and they quietly beat a retreat, leaving the midnight surveyors, with their bull's-eye lan terns, chains, poles, and theodolites, in quiet possession of the field.—Doncaster Gazette. HUMAN VERSUS Rona POWER. Considerable sensation was created last week in the neighbourhood of Airgrie, by the appearance of a large carriage drawn by no less than three hundred men. In the front of the carriage a person was stationed, who seemed to direct this mighty Juggernaut, and on its nearer approach it was found to con tain an anvil block, weighing seventeen tons, which was on its way from Monkland Ironwork, to Gartness Ironworks, krone of Naysniith's steabi-hammers about to be erected shore. The carriage weighed three tons, making twenty tons in all ; and as it had to be let down a steep and rather awkward road, it was found necessary to apply intellige n t power f.n• the purpose. We understand the Monkland Iron Company are making a large addition to their malleable iron works at Calder Bank, for which they have ordered an en gine of abOut 200-horse power, and which will materially increase their power of production of rails, plates, &c.—Edin burgh Post. ST. IVES.—No pilchards have been taken since cur last report. The season draws to a close, but we hope to secure a few thousand hogsheads more before finally with drawing the seins. Up to this time about 10,000 hogsheads have been landed from the seins this season, which, at 505., will amount to just 25,0001., a tolerably fair sum to realise in a few weeks.—Penzance Gazette. Between H ove and Brighton a great number of candl plapot• position, imitation of wax) have been 4: rwoltle . h, and sold at hl. each by the finders, 112-fiaftelii--the weight, six to a pound.

BIRTHDAY OF THE ParNcEss ROYAL.--The birth day of her Royal Highness was celebrated on Friday, at Windsor, with the usual manifestations of loyalty. The bells of the St. George's Chapel and the parish church rang mer rily, at intervals, from an early hour in the morning until the close of the day. A royal salute was fired at twelve o'clock from the Belvidere, at Virginia Water, and also from the Corporation ordnance in th e L ong W a lk . H er Majesty gave a banquet at the Castle to celebrate the auspicious event. Their Highnesses Prince and Princess Nicholas Esterhazy and family, as well as the Earl and Countess of Jersey, and Lady Clementina Villiers, who were to have gone to Middleton-park, near Bicester, this week, are de tained in town from the circumstance that the scarlet fever is very prevalent in the village at the present time. It is doubtful if they go to Middleton before the second week in the ensuing month. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cam bridge has been pleased to offer the Countess of Jersey and her family the royal cottage at Kew until they can go with safety to Oxfordshire. The Right Hon. Sir Robert Gordon, G.C.8., was expected at the Clarendon Hotel on Saturday, from his seat in Aberdeenshire, en route to Vienna, to resume his diplomatic functions at the Austrian Court. VISCOUNTESS VILLIERS.—We are happy to learn that her Ladyship, by accounts received by the Earl of Jersey on Friday from Upton House, was considered by her medical attendants to be going on favourably, and as the crisis of the fever had passed, no danger was apprehended. The eldest daughter of the Noble Viscountess was also much better. THE LATE VISCOUNTESS CANTERBURY.—Viscount Canterbury, the Hon. Henry Manners Sutton, M.P., and Mr. Sanderson, left town on Friday for Clifton, near Bris tol, to attend the funeral of the deceased Viscountess. The interment does not take place at Addington, Surrey, where the family vault is, but at Clifton. THE LATE DOWAGER LADY HOLLAND.—To-day the mortal remains of her Ladyship are- to be removed from Great Stanhope-street, to be conveyed to Ampthill, Beds, where, to-morrow, the funeral is to take place at the parish church, where the deceased lady is to be interred in the same vault with the late Lord Holland. Colonel Fox, M.P., Sir Henry Webster, and Lord Lilford, will attend on the mournful occasion. The Duke and Duchess of Richmond, and the Ladies Caroline, Cecilia, and Augusta Gordon Lennox, are expected to arrive in Portland-place on Friday next, from Gordon Castle, N. 8., on their way to Goodwood Park, for the winter. The Duke of Rutland and a small party have been enjoying the sports of the field at Cheveley Park, nearNew mariet. Lord George Manners left the Park to attend a railway meeting Cambridgeshire early in the week. Viscount and ViscounNas Palmerston, Earl Cow per, Viscount and Viscou'atess Jocelyn, Lord and Lady William Powlett, the Hon. William Cowper, 4cc., with a dis tinguished circle are staying on a visit to the Hon. Spencer Cowper, at the Hon. Gentleman's seat near Lynn. The gen tlemen of the party had abundant sport on Thursday in shooting over the pres , :rves. RATING OE PRIF.CE ALBERT'S FARM AT WINDSOR. —A curious questi on is likely to come before the Windsor Bench of Magistrates in connexion with the rating of, F.lemish Farm, in the occupation of his Royal Highness Prince 'Albert; which is situated within the parish of Wind sor. At a vestry meeting, held at Windsor on the 18th of last Septeniber, a ;resolution .was unanimously carried, to the effect that it was the opinion of the parishioners that Prince Albert.hang a beneficial occupation in Flemish Farm, his Royal highness is justly liable to pay all rates and taxes due fri. the said property; and that the collector be in structed to make' application to the Prince for all arrears of poor -rates due to the parish. All the defaulters, with the ex ception of his Royal Hi g h ness , were serve d with the following notice on Thursday last :—" The period specified in the notice left at your residence for the payment of the poor -rates having expired, I beg to apprize you, that in default of im mediate payment, the usual proceedings will be forthwith taken.—W. TOWERS, Collector." The Prince's rates still remaining unpaid, we understand that an objection to the summons, and to the issuing of distress warrants, will be taken, upon the ground that as the Prince Consort has not either paid his rates or been summoned, the whole proceed ings should be considered null and void. It will be interest ing to see in what way the Windsor magistrates will act in the matter. KING'S COLLEGE HOSPITAL.—On Friday a ge• neral quarterly meeting of governors and directors of this charity took place at the board-room of the hospital, in Por tugal-street, Lincoln's Inn, when George Jaques, Esq., was elected secretary and house-steward, which office was vacated by the resignation of ,Mr. E. C. Stevens. In aid of the funds of the charity a: concert, on a very large scale, will take place on Monday next, on which occasion several eminent members of the musical world will afford their as sistance. LEEDS CORN MARKET, Nov. 18.—Our arrivals of all grain are moderate. There is a good demand for wheat, and for best qualities of new red rather over Friday's rates are obtained, while. old fetckes fully as much money; the inferior descriptions of new are in more request. Barley is taken off at prices quite as good as on Friday. Beans slow of sale, and the turn lower. In other articles no alter ation. THE GREAT BOAT-RACE BETWEEN POCOCK AND CLASPER.—The great match for 2001. between Henry Clasper, of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and William Pocock, of Lambeth, appointed for Tuesday next, is the leading topic of conversa tion amongst aquatic men of all classes. The event is looked forward to with very considerable interest, and there can be no doubt, from the well-known celebrity of the men, that it will be a most spirited race. So sanguine of success are the friends of the parties, that both, in their turn, may be said to have a slight call in the betting circles; indeed fancy and favouritism have induced persons who speculate largely in these matters to go to strange extremes, such as, in many respects, are not warranted by circumstances; but the majo rity of the large sums depending upon the issue of this great event have, we are assured from good authority, be• an laid out at. even. The distance to be rowed is five miles, th a race ex tending from Newcastle-bridge to Leamington Poir it. SUICIDE FROM LONDON- BRIDGE.—On Friday night, about twenty minutes past ten o'clock, a man of colour, named Joshua Parker, who resides in John-street, Bermond sey, and has obtained a living by vending cheap publications mounted the parapet upon the north-side of Londe ea-bridge, and jumped into the river. The circumstance was witnessed by at least thirty persons who were passing at the time, but they were unable to save him. He had been sp , _taking but a few minutes previously to &young man, a fellow-lodger, of the name of Lyons, who was attracted to the spot almost immediately after the unfortunate event. The poor fellow on Sunday buried his wife, who had died of the I ,Tphus fever, and on Thursday his youngest boy fell a victin to the same disease. The unfortunate deceased was very m'.zch distressed, and has left three children, the eldest but ele7t.ir, years of age. A boat was speedily put off, but the body h Nid mot been found at a late hour at night. WESTMINSTER COURT OF SEWERS. -'j "he ordinary meeting of this Court was on Friday held at the Court-house, in Groek-street, Soho-square. The usual bn siness of the Court having been gone through, the proposii :ion'made by Mr. Lebreton, and passed at the last Court, • were brought forward for confirmation. A letter was read fr o m Mr. Doull, the assistant-surveyor, complaining of the pro p used plan for his dismissal without any charge of misconduct t having been made or proved against him, during his service of ten years. On the motion for confirming the resolution, l rased at the last Court, " That th e present surveyor's department is in efficient," Mr. Leslie o bj ected to such a court e. After a lengthened discussion, the resolution for the confirmation was put and carried nem. con. The other alterations proposed in the resolution, passed on Friday last, were then : taken seria tim and passed. Mr. Lebreton next moved, c That from a Lady-day next the services ef . Mr. Do u ll , the present as sistant-surveyor, be dispensed w ith, and the office abolished." The motion was earried by a majority of se ven t five, and the Court adjourned. A commencement has been made near S 'alisburr in the formation of the Wilt?, Somerset, awl emoutik Railyasp—FP'iltshirejnclependent. Notices that application is intended to be made to Parlia ment, in the ensuing session, on behalf of the undermen tioned schemes, appeared in the Gazette of Friday night : Herne Bay, Margate, Ramsgate, and Deal and Dover Junction.

PORTSIIOUTII, FRIDAY.—The Court-rnartiai ordered to try Second. Lieutenant George Shedden Dunbar, of this division of Royal Marines', on a charge of drunkenness, which trial concluded on Monday last, - when the sentence was sent up to the Admiralty for approval and sanction by her Majesty, re-assembled this afternoon at two o'clock in the mess-room of the Royal Marine Barracks, when the following was de livered as the finding : Charge—" For having been in a state of intoxication at the Victualling Store Barracks, Portsmouth, on or about the afternoon of the 30th day of October, 1845 ; such conduct being unbecoming the character of an officer and a gen tleman." The Court came to the conclasion, "That Lieutenant Dunbar was guilty of having been in a state of intoxication at the Victualling Store-barracks on the 30th of October last, but did fully acquit him of all conduct unbecoming the character of an officer and a gentleman, as, in the opinion of the Court, such intoxication was chiefly, if not entirely, pro duced by his previous indisposition, increased by his impru dent use of violent remedies. The Court having found the prisoner guilty to the extent above set forth, doth there fore sentence him to be admonished to be more cautious in future." The above sentence must be most satisfactory to Lieu tenant Dunbar, as, after a strict and careful investigation by fifteen officers of high rank and experience, his character has been cleared from all imputation, and must now stand higher than if it bad not been subjected to investigation by a public tribunal. The Victory,lo4, Captain Moubray, resumed her old posi tion off the Common Hard, Portsea, this morning, her moor ings having been examined and repaired. The Rattler screw steam-sloop, Commander Smith, was taken into the basin yesterday to complete the repair of her defects and fit her for service on the coast of Africa. The Dee steam troop-vessel, Master Commander Driver, was taken alongside the jetty this morning to complete the repair of defects and have her machinery examined and re gulated. The Netley tender sailed to-day for Devonport with super. numeraries. The Manceuvrer naval lighter sailed to-day with stores for Sheerness and the river depots. • The Leander 50-gun frigate is up in frame a n d h er wa l es and bilge-planks ught on. The workmen are now con structing a temporary shed over her, the weather having much retarded their progress; when the shed is completed the frigate will be proceeded with with all possible dispatch. The Rifleman steam-gun-vessel is in a similar state of progress; but being in a covered dock, her work is not re tarded by the state of the weather. She will be out of hand by the time required—sir weeks from the day of laying her keel. The Dauntless steam-frigate, of 1,454 tons, to mount 36 guns, building on the plan of Mr. Fincham, master ship wright of this dockyard, is in frame as far aft as the begin ning of the after dead-work. Sbe will work with a screw propeller, is being built on one ( f the new slips, and rapidly progressing in construction. The following are her dimen sions : Ft. In. Length between the perpendiculars 2lO 0 Length of keel per tonnage Breadth extreme Breadth moulded Depth of hold Burden, 1,454 tons. Horse power (screw), 520. The Arrogant, another steam-frigate, of 1,800 tons, to mount 46 guns, building on the slip which adjoins the above, on the design of Mr. White, of Cowes, is in a similar state of forwardness to the Dauntless. ..brne anxiety is manifested by the dockyard officers in charge of these two fine vessels on account of the apparently slow progress which is made in the work. The men appear not to be properly skilled into the methods used in Govern ment yards, being mostly all strangers and hired men. The shortness of the days also impedes the work. The Arrogant is only to have steam as an auxiliary, being ordered to be masted and rigged as a regular sailing frigate. The Daunt less, on the contrary, will be exclusively a steam. frigate, and have masts and yards of a lighter character, such as steamers of war usually carry. The Thalia, 42, Captain Hope, was inspected yesterday by the CommanderLin-Chief Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, and her crew mustered, as usual, prior to being paid off. The President, 50, Captain Stanley, flag of Rear-Admiral Dacres, is still at Spithead, windbound. In Harbour—The St. Vincent, Victory, Excellent, Vic toria and Albert, Thalia, Fairy, Dasher, Comet, Dee, and Echo steamers; Diligence navy transport, and Emerald and Fanny tenders. In Dock—The Prince Regent, Amphitrite, Trincomalee, Leander, Harlequin, and Rifleman. In the Basin—The Nelson, Edinburgh, and Rattler. At Spithead—The President. ROYAL MARINES. First Lieutenant S. J. Hadfield, with 11 privates of the divisional companies, and one sergeant, one corporal, and 11 gunners of the artillery companies, are ordered to embark in the Dee steam-sloop, Master Commander Driver, fer passage to Pembroke Dockyard. It is supposed the gunners are sent there for the purpose of taking charge of the ordnance stores, and manning the guns in the fort lately erected for the de fence of the dockyard. LA W INTELLIGENCE, ROLLS' Cotinr, Nov. §§. LANGLEY r. MUER. Mr. TermEn (on the part of the defendant) contended that the arguments on the side of the plaintiff had failed to es tablish the fact of a collusion having taken place between Mr. Prideaux and Mr. George Dyke Fisher. and therefore the case for the plaintiff could not be sustained. The Learned Counsel then cited the case of Kennedy v. Green, to show that the law was clearly laid down in conformity with the position he assumed, and continued his arguments at great length. _ _ Dlr. COOPER, on the part of the bankers, Messrs. Clutter buck, Theniall, and M'Kenzie, of Bristol, who claimed a lien on the estate for 1,6001. which bad been advanced to Mr. George Dyke Fisher on his promissory note and other security. Mr. LovEvr followed on the same side. Mr. FINNEY replied. His LoRDSNIP gave judgment, and went in extenso into all the features of the case, which have already appeared fully in The Sun. He considered that there was no proof that Prideaux was solicitor to Mr. George Dyke Fisher, nor was there any direct proof of what took place between him (Prideaux) and Mr. Robert Langley, He did not see why a man who considered that a claim which might prove troublesome, might not levy a fine without the imputation of being guilty of a fraudulent trans action. No case had been cited to show that Mr. George Dyke Fisher and Mr. Prideaux stood in a relation ana logous to that of any parties who came before the Court. He considered that from all these circumstances he must dis miss the case with costs. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT, IVov. 22. (13efure the VICE-CHANCELLOR OF ENGLAND.) _ GLASSE V. THE EAST INDIA CO3IPANY. The further arguments in this part-heard case were re sumed and concluded today. Our readers will recollect from our report on a former day, that the case came before the Court upon notice to dissolve an injunction granted against a Mrs. Marshall, a daughter of the plaintiff, and also against the East India Company, restraining the former from parting with certain East India bonds, and the East India Company from paying them. The amount of the bonds was 3,5001., and the question in the case arose from a dispute between the plaintiff and his daughter, with regard to the right to the bonds. It appeared from the affidavits that before the filing of the bill, five of the bonds had been out of the possession of the parties, and that three of them had been presented fur payment by the Bank of England, who had purchased them. Mr. Stuart, with whom was Mr. E. Wigram and Mr. Lloyd, appeared for the East India Company ; and Mr. Bethell and Mr. Speed supported the continuance of the injunction, !Mr. STUART having replied, His Hosrours gave judgment with respect to the general right of the Court to interfere in such a case as the present. He had no doubt that it had an inherent right to exercise its jurisdiction in cases of fraud, unless the Act of Parliament was so precise and cogent as to take that right away. Now, in the present case, there was nothing in the words of the Act that expressly declared that the East India Company should be liable to pay the bonds in whosesoever hands they might be, or by whatever means they had been obtained. It was not to be said that if A came to the East India Company with bonds in his hand, and he was knocked down by B, who by that means got possession of them, that the East India Company were bound to pay the amount to B. The case of the plaintiff presented a case of fraud, and that case bad not been met by the other side. The whole matter, It was true, might be explained, but that explanation remained to be given, and the Court could act only upon the case before it. The plaintiff's wife, it app eare d, lived, if his Honour might use the expression, in amicable separation from him; she died in October, having at that time belonging to her certain East India bonds. It was, represented that the daughter of the lady, who lived in a separate dwelling from the mother, came there after her death and took the pro perty away. The plaintiff then took out administration and prima facie, it did not appear that Mrs. Marshall had any legal right to those bonds. Then the present application was made to the Court that Mrs. Marshall, the daughter. should be restrained from parting with the bonds, and that the Rut India Company should be restrained from paying them either to Mrs. Marshall or any other person. Now that application appeared to his Honour prima facie to be one that ought to be granted. If the injunction to that extent was afterwards proved to be too large, the party making the application - Would have to pay the costs. With respect to the party having possession of some of the bonds, it might be right to dissolve the injunction upon, a proper case being made for that purpose, but no such case had at present been proved before the Court. Mr. &rum - IT—Does your Honour think that it is possible to retain the injunction against the East India Company with respect to all the bonds? His HONOUR considered that he had not at present a case before him, calling upon him to dissolve the injunction with respect to any of the bonds. As to the statement, that if the Court interfered it would enable the thief to part with the bonds with greater facility, his Honour considered that there was no foundation for such an assertion, for if the Court exercised that authority, which it undoubtedly pos sessed, the thief would be less likely to obtain the bonds. His Honour would therefore continue the injunction, but would reserve the question of costs, because it might appear upon further discussion of the case what thetruth of the facts realty was.--Injunction continued. Mr. BETITELL said he had another application to make in the same case, against the Messrs. Rothschild, in respect of certain Dutch bonds which they admitted to be in their possession. Mr. TRIPP, who appeared for the Messrs. Rothschild, had no objection to the application, provided Mrs. Marshall had been served with notice. Mr. BETIIELL said that she had. He thought the best course would be, instead of moving to restrain the Messrs. Rothschild from parting with the Dutch bonds, to allow them to sell them, and bring the money into Court, and then dis miss the bill against them, paying their costs. Mr. TRIPP said that his clients, the Messrs. Rothschild, had had notice from a respectable firm in Lincoln's Inn that the bonds had been purchased by trust money. Mr. BURGS, on behalf of the parties principally interested, had no objection to the proposition of Mr. Bethel!. The COURT then ordered that Messrs. Rothschild should sell thh bonds admitted by- their answer to be in their pos sessii-m, and bring the amount and the dividend into Court within two months, and , that therefore the bill should be dismissed as against them, with costs, to be taxed by the Master, and paid out of the monies standing to the credit of the cause. (Before Vice-Chancellor WIGRAM.) TESCHEMAKER V. SHIERENS. This is a snit on the part of Mrs. Teschemaker, formerly Mrs. Shierens, against the next of kin to her deceased daughter Albertina Shierens. Mr. and Mrs. Shierens were married in Demerara in 1816, and there was issue of two children ; and a settlement made between the parents gave, in case of the death of one of the parents, one-half the pro perty to the surviving parent, one-half to the children. ex cept that, in case the wife being survivor, should marry she should have but one-fourth of the whole. Albertina, the aaughtee, had died before coming of age, and the mother Mrs. Teschemaker. had appeared to have the daughter's por tion paid over to her. His Honour ordered inquiry as to the effect of the Duch law in Demerara, and as to the next of kin. IN RE LONDON AND SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY. This :petition prayed, on behalf of this Company, that the deposit of 35,0001. in Exchequer Bills, and 6621. 18a. in cash, made according to Act of Parliamen, might now be paid over to them. The order was granted. ' IN RE PRESTON IMPROVEMENT ACT. This petition on the part of the Vicar, prayed the payment of certain costs incurred preliminary to to the sale of the vicar age, in terms of the Act of Parliament, which directed the payment of incumbrances on lands out of the purchase muuey. His Honour thought the petitioner should have claitned out of the invested fund, as against the Commis sioners, and could not therefore• make order in terms of the petition. , • coma' OF QUEEN'S BENCH, N0v.22. The early part of the day was occup i e d in hearing a case upon a bill of exchange, which, it was contended upon the one side was a valid bill, passed for a consideration, and upon till', other that it ceased to be a debt, having come within the o!:,eration of the statute of limitation, EX PARTE. SIR JAMES SOUTH. Counsel on behalf of Sir James South moved for a rule nisi 'for a criminal information against Captain Grover for writing a letter tending to provoke a breach of the peace. The affidavit of Sir James stated that in October last he wrote some letters to the Times newspaper, which were published, and which called public attention, and that of the Royal So ciety, to the fact that the names of several persons had been published as belonging to the Provisional Committees of certain Railway Companies, and having the letters " Ir.R. S." affixed to them, to which they had no claim whatevor. Amongst those was the name of Captain Grover, who stated in a letter to the Times that he was a fellow. When the matter in public terminated, Captain Grover wrote to Sir James a friendly letter, in which he com plained that he had done him an act of injustice. This letter Sir James did not answer, and treated two others which followed with silence also; but the third contained the language 'which had given rise to th e p resen t ac ti on such as cowardl y knave," Bse. The Counsel then addressed the Court at great length upon the impropriety of using such language from one gentleman to another, and the conse quences_itat were likely to follow it. Lord DENMAX, in giving judgment, said it appeared to him that there had been a great deal of m ; sconception upon both sides. The object of Sir James was evidently to bold up certain parties to public observation under the circumstances stated; but as those letters contained no alle gation of misconduct, they did not warrant a re course t o personalities. It was quit e ev id e nt that Captain Grover had used language in his letters which he (Lord Denman) had no doubt he would upon reflection very much regret. However, the Court did not think the circumstances such as would warrant it in granting the application, and thereby be a means of keeping up ill-feeling. It was therefore hoped that the matter would end here, and that no more would be heard about it. favour of the rate were improperly allowed, and 41 against it had been improperly rejected. In fact 115 bad votes had been taken, and 41 good ones rejected. There was a Joint- Stock Company in the parish of Wakefield, called the Aire and Calder Canal Navigation Company. A persois named Wilkinson, a clerk to that Company, claimed the right of voting on behalf; and entered six votes in favour of the rate, although he, admitted that he had received no authority to do so. A station of the Leeds and Manchester Railway was in the town, and the staaon-master claimed the right of voting on behalf of the company, although he admitted that he had received no special authority to do so, and entered six votes. The same circumstance occurred witii regard to a gas company, a water company, the trustees of a proprietary school, and other establishments of a similar nature. Under these circumstances, it was evident that if a proper scrutiov bad been made, the majority of 15 would not be in favour of the rate. There were instances of persons voting as agents of private partnerships; and, on one occasio*, a magistrate of the West Riding entered six votes, as representing some out-buildings of a lunatic asylum, although he admitted that he was not one of the visiting magistrates, nor had he even any authority from his brother magistrates. There could be no question as to the jurisdiction of this Court in these cases. It had been held by the Court of Queen's Bench, in the case of the King v. St. Margaret, Westminster, that although the Court could not issue a man damus, compelling the parishioners to make a rate, yet it could issue a mandamus to call a meeting of the parishioners, in order to consider the propriety of making a rater The case was, therefore, plain, that this Court could issue a mandamus, calling a meeting of the parishioners of Wakefield to take their opinions on the question as to this rate. A caveat had been entered against the rate in the Ecclesiastical Court, but that circumstance did not interfere with the power of bringing the case under the cognizance of a temporal court. Some doubt existed as to whether a scrutator was necessary in a poll, but in this case there could be no doubt, as the returning officer himself had admitted the necessity of a scrutiny. He had the power of having one if he thought proper, but as he did not this application was made with the view of compelling him to enter an adjournment of the vestry from the 14th, in order that the question might be again considered, or to compel a scrutiny of the list of voters. Application granted. THE QUEEN v. THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY COMPA-NY. Mr. BoVILLE applied for a certiorari to bring up an in quisition, by which a deodand was imposed, in order that it might be quashed. It appeared that the inquisition was held on the body of Charles Dean, in the month of August last, and on the face of that inquisition there were several fatal errors, which rendered it liable to be quashed. The first was an irregularity in the mode of description. The in quest had been held at three different places, and it could only be held to be complete at the last sitting; yet the foreman in the verdict had said, " being now duly charged to inquire, &c." That charge must have been given a the first sitting, and not at the last, and could not be described by the word " now." The other objections were founded on a total absence of allegation of place. • The accident was said to have taken place on a certain railway, but the county or parish in which the said railway existed was not mentioned. An engine was described as moving to the death, striking certain car riages on a railway, but with no allegation of place. There was also a bad arrangement of sentences in the return, which totally disconnected the death from the cause; the collision of the carriages was entirely separated from, the death of Mr. Dean. The 6th and 7th Vict., sec. 2, cap. 83, bad provided that inquisitions should not be held void, from the omission of certain technicalities, which it described at length; but the errors in the present inquisition were totally out of the pale of the statute, and were necessarily fatal to it, as no indictment for murder or manslaughter could be founded on it. The Learned Counsel then cited several authorities in support of his application. Application granted. THE QUEEN V. EDWARD MARSLAND. Mr. PASHLEY mored for an attachment against the person of Edmund Marsland, for contempt of Court, in not attending as witness before the Revising Barrister for a parish in the county of Chester, after having been served with a subpoena to do so. This evidence was material in an objec tion raised against some voter's claim, and in consequence of his absence the claim had been allowed. Application granted. COURT OF •EXCHEQUER, Nov. 22. (Sittings in Banco.) LORD Y. SIMMONS. This was an action brought to recover compensation in the shape of damages for a misrepresentation made by the de fendant in respect of a certain school, to which the defendant pleaded Not Guilty, and ‘ the case was tried before Mr. Baron Platt on the 11th instant at Nisi Prius, when the jury found for the plaintiff, awarding him 1501. damages. Mr. W. H. WATSON now moved for a rule nisi, to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and a new trial had, on the ground that it was against evidence. It, would appear, that some short time ago, the plaintiff per ceived an advertisement in the public prints, stating that a school was to be disposed of in a beautiful part of the coun try, which afforded an, excellent opening for any young man who was desirous of commencing business as a school master; and directing that enquiries should be made at M. De Porquet's, the French bookseller and school - agen t, in Tavistock-street, Covent-garden. The plaintiff, being anxious to embark in such a profession, applied at M. De Porquet's ' and there learned from a paper signed by the de fendant, that the school was situate at Brill, in Buckingham shire. The school consisted of twenty-five boarders and twenty-five day scholars, and the academy was carried on in a very excellent hon.!•, replete with fixtures and other conveniences. The defendant assigned for the reason of his giving up the establishment, tLat he had just succeeded in getting a Post-office appointment i:r 3O OL, and he could not attend to it; and eventually relying upon these representations the plaintiff agreed to take the school. He paid upwards of 401. for the fixtures and goodwill of the establishment, and 1301. for furniture, snaking in all 170/., but on his going to take possession of the estab lishment, he discovered that he had beeen deceived by the defendant, there being only two scholars, and the house itself being in a very dilapidated state. He complained of this to the defendant, but finding he could get no redress from him by remonstrance, he was 1 iven to the present action, and the jury awarded him that which the defendant denied him. The Learned Counsel, however, con tended that they had done so erroneously, for it was elicited on the trial that the plaintiff was cautioned by a former applicant, that he was deceived in the impression he entertained of the flourishing condition of the school; and he was distinctly told by the defendant that the school was in a depiessed state, but the clergy of the parish would make good the deficiencies. Ho therefore con tended there was no misrepresentation, or at all events, if there was the plaintiff had allowed himself to be deceived with his eyes open, and as it was a well known rule of law that a party having the means of knowledge had no remedy if he allowed himself to be deceived, the verdict ought to be set aside. Mr. Baron PLAIT said he was decidedly of opinion that there was gross: deception 'practised upon the plaintiff, for the goods which were sold for 401. were only worth 18/. 18s,. and instead of the defendant holding a lucrative Post-office situation, he was a stationer in the Edgeware-road, a penny post attached to his shop. Mr. WATSON replied that the plaintiff had the means of knowing all this, and he rushed into the difficulty with his eyes open. Mr. Baron ALDERSON said it would appear, from the re mark of his Learned Brother who tried the cause, that he was satisfied with the verdict; and •he thought, therefore, that the Ltarned Counsel had better endeavour too PlOw the damages were excessive. . The Loun CHIEF BARON—I should, like ‘ to knoW if the remarks of Mr. Watson have made any impression on the Learned Judge who tried the cause. . , • Mr. Baron Pharr—No, indeed, they have not. • • Mr. WATsosi said the Learned Baron had taken a very violent• view of the ease. With regard to the damages being excessive, that must be evident to everybody. The plaintiff was still in possession of the school and the' furniture, and i a sufficient equivalent for the money he had expended. Besides, he had,allowed himself to be deceived with his eyes open, arid had means of knowing the actual position of the school, but neglected to avail himself of those. The LORD CHIEFBARON did not think that fact mitigated the deception. Mr. WATSON—Why, my Lord, if a man represents a horse to be sound and the liorse walks lame before him, surely the party purchasing the horse with his eyes open cannot after wards complain of deception. Mr. Baron PLATT—Suppose the horse is warranted to have two eyes but only has one, and Mr. Warsos—Just so, my Lord; the party purchases the horse while staring at the pale eye ! Can he afterwards complain of the deception ? Mr. Baron PLATT—But suppose the purchaser is blind, would ha not have a right of recovery? Mr. WATSON—Why, my Lord, that alters the case. There the party has not the means of knowing that he is being de ceived. The Loan CHIEF BARON said the Learned Judge who tried the cause being satisfied with the verdict, they must con form to the practice of the Court, and not disturb it. With regard to the damage, it was evident that deception had been practised, and the Court could not reduce them. The rest of the Court concurring in this opinion, the rule was refused. COURT OP COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 22. (Sittings in nanC:'•) %Vitali V, tivicittß AND &rnEns‘. Mr. Sergeant CHANNET, on the part of the defendant Hun ter, and Mr. Sergeant SIIEA, on the part of the other de fendants Sidney and Thompson, showed caused against a rule moved by Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, for a new trial in the above case, which was an action for an illegal distress. On the original trial the defendants had pleaded Not Guilty, and also that the distress was made under a fieri facias, instructing them to seize the gees of plaintiff for a debt due to Mr. Gurney. The replication was that the tres pass of which the plaintiff comp l a i ne d was not the original distress, bat that the defendants remained in possesion : f t er receiving a notice from Mr. Gurney that they were to with draw from possession. To this the defendants pleaded that the notice received by them from Gurney was not a notice to withdraw entirely from the distress, but only to give up certain goods which had been claimed by a third party. The notice, which was produced in evidence, was as fol 10W5:— " Gurney s' Wallter, withdraw, under fieri facies herein, the goods being clai m ed." The ycliet of the jury was for the defendant. It was now represented, on the ple, of the defendant?, that the above hotice Only mear'.." withdraw from possession of the gdtkts Which haVe been claimed," and that the &i.," - dents were justified in retaining in possession of the goods. sergeants ertAti!l% arid Suit: having spoken at some le Oath stiplidit or tile above Vreifi Mr. Sergeant TAtiouitti replle,d otraiepatE of, ihe plantain oltid urged thei thenotlee applied tO all the ptidds seitiec; Arad that tne words "the goods being claimed aitiotitited to a statement that the reason for withdrawing the distress was, that some of the goods were claimed.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. On Saturday two men, named Claret' and Davis, were placed at the bar, before Mr. Twyford, on a charge of steal ing a marble figure of a cow, value 201., the property of Mr. Brown, a sculptor, in University-street, Tottenham-court road. It appeared, from the evidence of a workman in the employ of the prosecutor, that the figure was placed Tor show in the sculpture-room of his house, which was open all day, and, about a fortnight ago, was missed. It was so heavy that it would require two men to carry it away. He had since seen the same figure at the shop of Mr. Whistler, a pawnbroker, in the Strand. A shopman in Mr. Whistler's house proved that the cow was brought to his master's shop by the prisoners on the Ist instant. They placed it on the counter, and said they wished to pawn it. Witness lent them 30s. on it. A day or two afterwards Davis called again, and inquired whether witness could not advance more money upon it. He gave him another sovereign, and. told him that, if he would call again, he would ascertain its value, and, if possible, grant him a ftrather loan upon it. In the meantime, however, they were both taken into custody. Joseph Thompson, a police-constable, stated, that from in formation he received, he apprehended Clarey about a week since. He told him he was charged with stealing a cow, upon which he declared he knew nothing of it. He subse quently took the other prisoner into custody, and, he on learn ing the charge, said he had been employed by Clarey and a man called " Jerry " (a well known thief) to pawn the cow, and that he had received only two shillings as his shar;.‘. of the proceeds. The prisoners, who declined making any defence, were com mitted for trial. APPODTTMENTS. Captain—H. B. Martin, to the Grampus. Master—J. Hutching , , to the Grampus. Surgeons 'J. H.

TAYLOR. —We lament to learn that the tomb of Dr. Taylor, in the field near Hadleigh, which was the scene of his martyrdom, has, within the last week, been very much injured, either by wanton mischief or by malignant feeling against the memory of him who sealed with his blood his confession of the Pro- teStalt flith.-Norfolk News. QUEEN-SQUARE. On Saturday, George Banham, 84 B, was charged before Mr. Burrell with breaking a poor girl's arm. Sarah Brady, the complainant, who was very poorly and wretchedly clad, said, that on the evening of Saturday week she had occasion to come to Westminster, and was returning towards home at about 12 at night,when she met a man with whom she had been acquainted. She was walking by his side up Tothill-street, engaged quietly in conversation with him, when on arriving at the corner of a court, defendant came up, and, orderingher to go on,shoved herdownthe court. She told him that she did not live that way, and was going home. Defendant, however, would insist upon her going that way, in consequence of which she remained in the court for a minute or two, until he had gone on another part of his beat, when she came out and joined her friend, and they pro cecded to the corner of Dean-street, where she was bidding him good night, when defendant came up again, and, with out speaking a word, seized her by the arm, turned her round, and pushed her some distance up the street, and then left her. She leant up against a hoarding, and finding her self in great pain, and her arm useless, she informed her Mold, who recommended her to go immediately to the Wesminster Hospital, which she did. It was there found that her arm was broken, and the house-surgeon having set it, she went to the station and complained of defendant's conduct. The young man alluded to, and another who was in com pany with him at the time, confirmed the girl's account of the defendant's violence. Inspector Forbes was then called, and said that when com plainant came to the stati ,, n to prefer a complaint against the policeman she was drunk. Defendant had been in the force six years, and bore a very fair character. There had been some trivial reports against him, and one for drun kenness. Mr. 'BURRELL observed that, after the distinct evidence which had been given for the prosecution, it would be very difficult for him to come to any other conclusion than that the girl had been treated with great violence. She might have been obstructing the way, but that would not justify such treatment as she had received. He did not impute to defendant for a moment that he had intended to break the girl's arm, but he had been guilty of great violence towards her, and he must convict him in the penalty of 51. The fine was paid,_ WANDSN'ORTIL On Saturday four labouring men applied to Mr. Clive for summonses against a man named Davis, who is a " gauger" on the Richmond Railway, for the non-payment of wages. John Nagle, the spokesman of the party, stated that he went to work on the Richmond Railway, at Barnes, on Mon day week. A man named Davis, who is the gauger on that portion of the line, engaged him and others, and agreed to give them 2s. 6d. a day fur their labour. When they asked for the money Davis gave them what he called shilling tickets, and told them to go to his shop. Having no money they were obliged to go to his shop and be satisfied with what was° given them. He, with eight or nine others, asked. Davis on Friday morning to let them have money instead of tickets. He said he could not settle with them then, and kept them waiting until twelve o'clock, when they were told, as they had broken the day, they were not allowed to go to work; so that at the present time they were without work or money. _ . . Mr. .CLIVE-I am afraid you can make nothing of it. You have consented to be paid in tickets, and it is very probable that there is little or nothing coming to you. If, when you first went to work, you had refused to accept tickets, but required money, and the party had declined giving it you then, I would, upon your applying to me, have granted a summons instantly Even now I will grant you one, but I fear you will be throwing your money away. The applicant then said he would take a summons out, but on being asked for the court fees, two shillings, he de clared that he had no money. Mr. CIE observed that he should not grant the sum moo unless the fees were forthcoming. The applicant and the other men declared that they had not a fartiling in the world, and left the Court. HORRIBLE OUTRAGE. OSWESTRY, Nov. l9.—During the last few days this usually quiet little town has been disturbed by the commis sion of an outrage, for which, in some of its revolting de tails, it were difficult to find it parallel. An aged woman, named Susannah Ryder, late a pauper in the Ellesmere Union Workhouse, had gone to reside with her son, a labourer, who, with his sister, occupied a cottage near Llanymynech. The mother, who 1,3 presumed to be subject to mental aberration, was at such Ones wholly ungovern able, and even desperate when contr %dieted. She had a predilection to wander from home ; and it was the pro vince of the daughter, a sickly young wOinan, to prevent her leaving the cottage when under the inthience of this malady. On Friday morning, the son having gone to his employment, the old woman got up to go out, which the daughter resisted, but finding expostulation ustelos, she locked the door, putting the key into her pocket. This served to increase the old woman's fury. Seizing an iron-mounted bill-hook, she, at one blow, laid her helpless victim prostrate on the floor, and, whilst in a state of total insensibility, pro ceeded with savage ferocity to inflict several wounds on her head and body; but her rage did not stop there. Having dragged the body of her apparently dead child into an adjoining apartment, the wretched maniac proceeded to the commission of another act of atrocity which can be no further described. The inmates of an adjoining cottage having overheard the original altercation, and being aware of the old woman's violent disposition, knocked re peatedly at the door, but failing to obtain admittance,' sonic person went for young Rider, the son, who, with some of his neighbours, made forcible entry into the house, when they found every appearance that a desperate struggle had taken place. In the inner apartment the body of the daughter was discovered, from which a stream of blood had flowed tot the threshold of the door. The outer room was also strewn with clots of blood, and human hair torn off in the struggle. The wretched old woman, who was disco vered huddled , up in the corner of the room, was imine- diately secured. A„broom handle (the, last weapon used) ' lay near her, one end clotted with gore. Mr. Owen, a me dical gentleman, was called in, and restoratives having been copiously administered,, the , poor sufferer showed signs of life. Her wounds having , been dressed, she was placed, in bed, and on the following day wai sufficiently recovered .to be able to explain the origin of the conflict. The miserable mother has been taken before Mr. R. Aubcsy, one of the 31 - a r gistrates of the Oswestry Bench, for a preliminary examina tion. Mr. Owen, the surgeon, stated that the partial reco- very of the girl was solely attributable to the powerful sti mulants administered, but he entertains no hope of saving her life. The old woman, who was remanded for further examination, betrayed a wildness of demeanour throughout the inquiry, but exhibited at the same time a degree of cun ning in answering the questions put to her, carefully abstain ing admission that might criminate herself. The son is said to be a most industrious young man, and has hitherto devoted all his earnings to the maintenance of his mother and sister. The Royal Society and Society of Antiquaries each held their first meeting for the session at their respective apartments in Somerset-house yesterday evening. The time of each meeting was chiefly occupied by the announcement of presents which had been received during the recess. At the former, Professor Faraday will on an early evening read a paper on his new theory of the identity of light with heat and electricity. LINCOLN'S INN, Nov. 20.—The undermentioned gentlemen were called to the bar, and were sworn in :--Mr. J. Browne, Mr. E. W. Robertson, Mr. E. Martin. Mr. E. N. Ayrton ' Mr. D. Stuart, Mr. M.

Any one visiting them and not asking questions would suppose that the old veteran ;vho exhibits them is the only person who derives any emolunient from them, but we hear that they cost about 500/. a-year to keep them in repair, and there is 300/. a-year more paid to the chaplain for doing duty there. —Plymouth Journal. WOOLWICH GARRISON, Nov. 20.—An important point has been decided by the Board of Ordnance, respect ing the legality of the attestment of recruits from the Royal Artillery and Engineers, by Sir John Webb, the director-general of the Ordnance medical department, and a ' 'stice of the pea ce for the count y of Kent.

EX FAME TIDE r•AArstlloNEns OF WAREFIEM Mr. BAYNES applied for a rule to show cause Why i Man damus should not issue commanding the IteV. Sanntel Sharpe, vicar of the parish of Wakefield, to entet on the vestry ke cords an adjournment of a vestry Meeting of October 14. The Learned Gentleman stated that tin the 10th of At t iAilit notice was gi ven th a t a meeting of the.pariAoneri Veil , axe field, to take into consideration the making br A church -rate, would be held. The rate Wits to be made for the parish church of Wakefield, :AIM 1`.;0 for another church, which w as maintained und er a p articular 111. The parishioners - 4 , sem bi e d o n the 14th, and it was proposed that a - rate of on e penny in the pound ;Wald be levied. S :.;atute under the 85th of Geo. , ,-, -.fie person proposed that the %/Airy should adjourn ' °r '_4 months, and that proposition was seconded, but was negatived by a show of hands. After a short disatissintli the vestry decided again s t th e rate. A po ll was d emanded on the ' 18th, which poll continued until the 2d of September. 0 that day the vicar declared the poll to be closed. The number in favour of the rate was declared to be 2,376, and the num ber against it 2,361, leaving a majority of 15 in favour of the rate. During the course of the polling, the vicar received the votes unassisted by any member of the legal profession, and when any vote was objected to, the vicar made a memo randum of it, saying that it would be entered into thereafter. He said that such votes and the poll in general would be examined by a scrutator. As the pall closed, a demand was made for a scrutiny, and the vicar declared that he would go home and count the numbers, and then seal up the books to be examined by the scrutator. It was then pointed out to him that he had in one case inserted only one vote where four ought to be allowed. On his declaring the numbers, he was again called upon to grant a scrutiny, and he then positively refused to do so. The proceeding was, without that scrutiny, wholly incomplete, and the object of this applica tion was to compel the vicar to take the proper steps to render the proceeding complete.
