LAW INTELLIGENCE.-7111S DAY. COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary and a Special Jury.) DERING V DERING AND BLAKELEY-TIIE QUEEN'S PROCTOR INTERVENING. This petition, which was originally beard last year, was presented by the husband, Mr. Dering, a son of Sir Edward Dering, for dissolution of marriage. The respondent previous to ber mar riage with Mr. Dering was the wife of Lord Forth; and the evidence that was offered on the occasion was sufficient to lead to order a decree nisi. Cir cumstances, however, had led the Queen's Proctor to intervene to prevent the decree being made final, and it was now offered on the ground of connivance, negligence, and undue exposure of the wife. The Attorney and Solicitor-General appeared for the Queen's Proctor, and Sergeant Parry and Mr. Montagu.' Chatnbers for other parties iuterestei. The first witness was Jane 'Take, a lady's maid, who had li ve d w ith Mr. and Mrs. Dering at their residence in Bolton-row. She said the visits of Captain Blakeley were very frequent, and that Mr. Dering was much away from home. She recollected Mr. and Mrs. Dering going a trip up the Mediterranean in Captain Blake ley's yacht. She (witness) went with them. Captain Blakeley's cabin was between those of Mr. and Mrs. Dering, as they did not sleep together during the voyage. She observed that Mrs. Deriug's cabin door was partially open during the night. MR. BRIGH7 AT LIVERPOOL. LIVERPOOL, Wednesday. Mr. Bright having accepted an invitation from the Welsh National Reform Association to visit Liverpool during the annual gathering which is called at Whitsuntide in this town, was present this evening at a crowded meeting in the Amphitheatre. Mr. W. Williams, a member of the Liverpool Town Council, occupied the chair, and the meeting was composed chiefly of natives of the Principality. At one time apprehensions were entertained of a seri ous disturbance, inasmuch as it was alleged that some of the Orange Lodges had been issuing tickets closely resembling the original, but very efficient measures were promptly taken by the local autho rities, and the proceedings passed off with the ut most tranquillity. Mr. bright, who was accom panied by his host, Mr. S. N. Rathbone, and a number of the leading Liberal 3 of Liverpool and s neighbourhood, met with a most enthusiastic re- ception. The CHAnntAN briefly opened the proceedings, stating that he regarded the meeting rather as a na tional than a local one. He called upon all Welsh men to arouse themselves from the political apathy which had hitherto characterised them, and to agi tate for an increased representation for the princi pality of IV ales. Under the existing arrangements the hills and the mountains were well represented, but the existence of a Welsh people was utterly ignored. (Cheers.) The Rev. 11. RICHARDS moved the first resolu tion :—" That this meeting of the Welsh Re.form Association cordially approves the principles of jus tice contained in the resolutions for the disestablish molt of the Irish Church, lately carried in the House of Commons by the Liberal party, and, in support of those principles, pledges itself to exert its whole influence here and throughout Wales to secure the return of Liberal candidates at the next Parlia ment try election." He complained that the repre sentatives of Wales were chosen by a few powerful landholders, by whom the most cherished religious and political principles of the great bulk of the Welsh people were habitually ignored or misrepre sented. Mr. V. IlAncourlT addressed the meeting. The Judge—Possibly to get air. Witness (continued) —Her (witness's) cabin was near Mrs. Bering's, but she never saw Captain Blakeley actually inside Mrs. Dering's cabin, but the Captain and Mrs. Bering were always together on board the yacht walking about. Mr. Bering generally was with the sailors forward, whilst the Captain and Mrs. Bering were together. Ou the return of the yacht the parties all came to London. By Mr. Montagu Chambers—She acted as lady's maid to Mrs. Bering, who was a very young and handsome woman. She had been told by Mrs Bering to watch for the coming of Capt. Blakeley. There was nothing secret about his visits to Bolton-row. She continued her duties as lady's maid on board the yacht. She used to retire to rest about two in the morning, but witness used not to sit up for her. Mr. Bering used to drink very much on board the yacht, and was frequently the worse for drinking. When he was so he used to walk about, and talk, and laugh. When they lived in Bolton-row Mr. Bering used to return home intoxicated. Mrs. Blakeley used to visit at Bolton-row, but never after the quarrel, By the Judge—There were two berths in the lady's cabin, but nobody slept in the other berth. By Sergeant Parry—Captain Blakeley used to visit Bolton-row from Christmas until they went on board the yacht. Mrs. Blak e l e y an d th e ca pt a i n haddine d atßolton-row t w i ce. A num b er o f gentlemen used to dine at Bolton-row about twice a week. She knew Mr. Bering and Capt. Blakeley were members of the Army and Navy Club, and also that Mr. Bering used to go card-playing at the club in the afternoon, but she could not say that Mr. Bering was always absent from home between ten and twelve in the evening. She did not know that Captain Blakeley used to come to the house on the occasion - of dinner parties after the guests and Mr. Bering had gone o ut. Sh e n ever received dy, a ny particular order s t o a d m it C apta i n Blakeley, but it was well known that he was a fre nd. s quent visitor at the house. Captain Blakeley and Als Captain herhe hadhu sband that also heard her tell her of things Captain Blak e ley had informed her of over night. r ßering heardingwere now a b roa d. Sh e h a d fre quently Blakeley Mrs. called. tell p haderig Charles Smith, butler in the service of Mr. Dering, said at the time they went to live at Bolton-row Capt. Blakeley used to come there very frequently. The Derings usually breakfasted between 11 and 12, and Capt. Blakeley used to come after that fre quently twice a day, and stayed and took tea with Mrs. Dering. On one occasion he had seen Mrs. Dering fastening up her hair when he went in to remove the tea-things, and Captain Blakeley was also somewhat embarrassed. Ile (witness) had frequently picked up hair pins on the floor. Mr. Dering used to be very much from Lome, and as a rule Captain Blakeley and Mrs. Dering always seemed very familiar, au I they talked more together than the other people who came there. By Sergeant Parry—He did not know that Mr. Dering was usually absent from home at day time. He always thought that Mr. Dering seemed very fond of his wife. Sanders, the butler who lived at Bolton-row until the departure for a trip up the Mediterranean, also spoke to the frequency of the visits of Captain Blakeley. He never came home whilst the Captain was there, but when other visitors came he had received orders not to admit them. The Captain used to come nearly every evening and re - main until t we l ve o ' c l oc k a t n i g ht. No other visitor s were admitte d d ur i ng th ese h ours . Mr. Bering used to ask, when he returne d h ome , whether Captain Bering had been there, and he was alway s t o ld he had been. By the Jud ge —He never made any remar k a b ou t it. By Mr. Sergeant Parry—Mr. Dering always treated his wife with kindness, but he should say she had great influence over her husband. Ile should say he must have been aware of the frequent visits of Capt. Blakeley, but he felt sure he never sus pected the honour of Capt. Blakeley. He could see that Mr. Derin g was being deceived by the clan d est i ne manner in Whi c h Mrs. Dering and Capt. Blakeley met. The case was proceeding when we went to press M. GUSTAVE DORE.—This distinguished French artist, whose works have obtained a popularity beyond all precedent, is at present in London, and yesterday paid a visit to the studio of Mr. John Watkins in Parliament street, when several excellent photographs of the gre a t painter were taken which will shortly be published. We learn with pleasure that the Duke of Wel lington has most kindly granted the use of the Waterloo Gallery at Apsler Rouse to the Working Men's Club and Institute Union, for a reading by the Rev. J. M. Bellew on the 18th of June next. Mr. Bellew has placed his services at the disposal of the council of the union on this occa sion to enable them to raise funds in aid of two of the valuable institutions in London which it is the useful pur pose of that.society to promote. The North Easter n Correspondence publishes some curious information relative to the prc sent attitude of Russia in the North Schleswig ques tion. It says that in a recent interview with the Danish envoy at St. Petersburg, Prince Gorteha koff warmly expressed the displeasure of his Go vernment at the conduct of Denmark in this matter, which, he said, seemed to be prompted by the hope of a French intervention in her favour. Alluding to the journey of General Raasloff to Paris, the Prince observed that, even if such a step were regarded as having no political charac ter, it placed Denmark in a false position, and he therefore wished to expose clearly to the Danish Cabinet the policy of Russia in the question. The Prince then recalled the traditional sympathies of Russia for Denmark, which had only lately been strengthened by two matrimonial alliances between the reigning families of those countries, and pointed out the advantages which had been secured to Denmark by the treaty of Prague. The Danish ambassador here objected that Pru-sia did not seen r t e d jo is i p a o ed sed th t a o t c t a h rr e y r o e u a t so tl n ie o t f re t a i t i y but is; was ttlhmet Prince e ark had based upon the treaty exagge rated demands which could not be accepted by the Prussian Government. As for a French inter vention, this'could under no circumstances be al lowed, as France had no right to interfere in an affair which concerned only Austria, Prussia, and Denmark. At the same time he was aware that, notwithstanding all her pacific relations, France continued to maintain an antagonistic attitude towards Prussia, and Russia would therefore use all her influence to prevent any new complications arising from this question. She would even, if necessary, give the most energetic assistance to Prussia. The Prince concluded by urging on the Danish ambassador the necessity of his Govern ment coming to an understanding with that of Prussia, and offered to assist in facilitating an armagennut between the ON C9111:14411, The Rev. Dr. REES seconded the resolution, speaking in the Welsh language, which apparently excited great enthusiasm among a considerable por- Lion of the audience. Mr. BRIGHT, M.P., on rising to speak in support of the resolution, was received with great cheering. He said—Mr. Chairman, in our school days and from our school books we learn that Liverpool was a great seaport in the county of Lancashire, but our chairman, notwithstanding, was not far wrong when he described Liverpool as the capital city of the principality of Wales, for I understand there are not less than 60,000 natives of the Principality who are living in this town. lam not sure that there are to be found a larger number than that within any of the towns within the geographical boundary of Wales; but further I am told that this meeting has in some degree a representative charac ter, that there are men here from very many of the towns of Wales, and particularly of North Wales. But those from whom I got this invitation told me, what Mr. Richards has already stated, that there is among the "Welsh people a great inertness or a great inactivity in regard to political questions, that they are firmly convinced on all questions connected with their churches and their religion, that in that one fact they are capable of great organisation and great sacrifices, and have achieved a great success, but in regard to political questions they have seemed to think that in their comparatively little country they had very little to do with the public affairs of a great empire. (Cheers.) Now, I believe that it is essential for the greatest success of a country that in every part of it men should take a great interest in national affairs, and that when great questions come up for discussion and settlement, not only should the voice of the people be heard in great cities but in small towns and in every village, i❑ order that a true result and a wise decision may be arrived at. Now, at this moment we have before us a very great question indeed, one the like of which has not come before the political people of England for judgment and for verdict for many years past—(hear, hear)—and I hope one of the results of the holding of this meeting to-night will Le that the great verdict of the nation will not be given without the voice of Wales being heard in it. (Cheers.) The great question is that of the desti nation, of the continuance or the removal, of the Protestant Church in Ireland. Now, one would suppose tnat every Welshman would have been alive to a question of this nature. (Hear.) Geographi cally,you are nearest to Ireland—(laughter)—at least of any portion of the southern part of this island ; but, more than that, you have had an experience in religious and in Church matters more remarkable and more thorough than any other portion of the people of Great Britain, and, apart altogetherfrom questions of Establishments, there can be no doubt that you have a strong sympathy for justice, and as strong a wish that justice should be done to Ire land as any other portion or population of Great Britain can be. (Cheers.) Now, I need hardly tell you—for you have heard nothing and read nothing on this subject without knowing it—that Ireland has been governed by the Crown and the governing classes in England for many centuries, and that, notwithstanding that, and even not withstanding an Act of Union passed 67 years ago, and notwithstanding the general impression throughout the world that Great Britain and Ire land form one kingdom—notwithstauding all that, there has never been any real union between Great Britain and Ireland, and, indeed, until lately there has been no approach to good government in Ireland. (Hear.) The rule of England in the country for three centuries—l will go no further back—until a very recent period was a rule through the Viceroy or Lord-Lieutenant, through the judges, through the landowners ; it was a rule of Protestant and political ascendancy, with which the people had no sympathy, and against which the Irish nation has perpetually protested—(cheers)— and if you have had 300 years of government like this, you have had what was the inevitable result, 300 years of misery, of discontent., of conspiracy, and of insurrection. It was only about 100 years ago, not quite 100 years ago, when the war was being waged between this country and the Ameri can revolted colonies. It was only then that the English Government consented to some relaxation of its cruel rule in Ireland ; and it was not until the year 1829, whict seems but the other day to some of us, that any single Roman Catholic, out of 6,000,000 Roman. Catholics then in Great Britain and Ireland, was permitted to take his seat in the British House of Commons. (Hear, hear.) Since 1829 there has been a much more merciful and a much more just administration, but, notwithstand ing that—and that was mainly the result of im proved representation in England under the Re form Bill, and of the advent of the Whig party to power —(hear, hear) —still the supremacy has been continued, and the sign and the symbol of it has been the Protestant Establishment in Ireland. Now I speak to you, Welshmen, who, inhabitants of this town, are representatives of our brethren in the Principality, you who have done so much for religious freedom ; you who made Christianity universal throughout your country ; I ask you to resolve upon this—that nothing shall draw you from your determination as far as lies in your power to grant that perfect religious equality in Ireland ; not equality with a Roman Catholic Church—(cries of " No, no !")—but equality with a Protestant Free Church in that nation—(cheers) —pure equality, in fact, on the voluntary prin ciple. (Cheers.) It is admitted by everybody that you must aim at equality in Ireland—that is only political justice, and it can only be effected in one of two ways, either by endowing and making a State Establishment of the Roman Catholic Church, or by disestablishing the Protestant Church and adopting the voluntary principle throughout the whole of the country. Now, it is for you to decide what you will do. I observe among your Welsh members it is a very curious point, that more of them voted against Church-rates than on behalf of anything else that was liberal. The reason is this, that among Welsh populations Church-rates were a known and felt grievance until they were abaltllleci, LOW therefore you members took care generally to be there when the Church-rate ques tion was on, and a larger number of them voted for the abolition of Church-rates than for any other nuisance or evil I am acquainted with, and if you will go as near to your representatives on this question of the Irish Church—feel that to be your own grievance —you may depend upon it we shall have a better vote in Parliament in the next session for Welsh members than perhaps we have ever had before. Now, I hold you, I bind you to this, that you are for justice to Catholic and Pro testant in Ireland, established on the voluntary principle ; and I argue that you must have this opinion, and that you will support it, because you cannot sever your Christianity from justice, and be cause you know and feel that to do justice to Ire land and Irishmen must be to add honour and unity and strength to the Crown and to the people of this vast empire. Mr. Bright resumed his seat amid prolonged cheering, having spoken for an hour and. ten minutes. :SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. —This Da. VICTORIA CLUB BETTING.—Tnas DAT.

The resolution was carried by acclamation. An other resolution was also passel, affirming the neces sity for increased representation of Wales in Par liament. A vote of thanks having been passed to Mr. Bright, Mr. BRIGIIT, in responding, said—l feel that if I were not so hoarse I should take the oppoi tunity, in returning my thanks to you for your kindness, to make one or two further observations. The gen tlemen who have moved and seconded this resolu- Lion have referred to the fact that I have come to this meeting during the four or five days of the Parliamentary recess. When I was first asked to come down, as Mr. Rathbone knows, after having argued the question with him, I wrote to him to excuse myself and to decline to come down. However, Welshmen appear to be more pertina cious than Mr. Rathbone, or perhaps be suggested the next assault that was made upon my inten tions, and a deputation came to the House of Commons to ask me to come down here. Now, the question is one of that extraordinary im portance that I did not feel myself at liberty to re fuse to come when it was represented to me that possibly the influence of this meeting might extend beyond the bounds of Liverpool, and might reach some portions of the Principality of Wales. (Hear, hear.) Now, one way in which I hold this meeting to be of special importance is this—l have heard what has been said by the speakers to-night as to the great contest in which we are engaged, and the desperate struggle which will be made at the next general election. I have heard elsewhere of the funds which are being provided by the friends of the Government and the friends of the Irish Church. All this may be quite true. I have asked myself what will happen in case we should be defeated. It seems an extravagant question to put--(cheers)—but, not to omit to regard all sides of the question, let us ask ourselves what would happen if we should be defeated. You know that in Ireland there are elements of great disorder. There is a Fenian party of considerable activity and of considerable dimensions ; beyond them there is a very large amount of what I may call tacit dis loyalty ; beyond that there is a still larger amount of what I may call serious discontent ; and beyond that even, among the Catholic population especially, there is a universal dissatisfaction with the state of things in Ireland, and with the course taken by the imperial Parliament. Now nothing is more plausible, hardly anything more reasonable, than to say to an Irishman, " You cannot be well-go verned with a Parliament in London to which you only send one member out of six who meet there. Your 105 members from Ireland are submerged, or ' lost, or absorbed in one mass of the members for Great Britain, and the Imperial Parliament cares nothing for your voice." The persons of whom I am speaking, if addressing an Irishman, would say, " Your first business is to obtain a separation from Great Britain and a Parliament in Dublin. (Hear, ear.) No one country can be impartially and wisely governed by another country." That is one plain argument offered to Irishman, and it has in it great force. Now, my opinion is this, that if through a cry of " No Popery," or " Church in danger," or any other cry, one result of the next election should be to make it impossible in the coming new Parliament to disestablish the Irish Church, every man who has used that argument to an Irishman, or to the Irish population, would find that argument not only im measurably strengthened, but I should say almost conclusive, and we should find—l don't say more Fenianism, and more of that kind of conspiracy which has exhibited itself in some parts in a reckless form, but we should find in Ireland a far greater discontent and a far greater resolution to achieve, if it be possible, the separation of Ireland from Great Britain. Now, I have never said that Irishmen are not at liberty to ask for, and if they could ac complish it to obtain the repeal of the Union. I am not now speaking to Irishmen, I am speaking to a meeting composed mainly of persons residing in and natives of Great Britain. 1 say that we have no right—l am willing to say this any where—we have no right whatever to insist upon a union between Ireland and Great Britain upon our terms only. (" Hear," and cheers.) We have only a right to insist that the United Kingdom shall not be severed if we are willing to do full justice to the different nations of which it is composed ; therefore,:there is a question far more important than whether this man or that man shall be Prime Minister, or whether a particular Cabinet, shuffling and offensive as this Cabinet is —(hear and cheers)—or a more honest Cabinet which must ne cessarily succeed it--I say there is a question far greater than whether this or that Cabinet shall be in office. It is whether the people of England have raised themselves to this height of political intel ligence and to this sense of political justice that they are willing to deal fairly and honour ably, and as they would like to be dealt with themselves, by the Irish nation. (Loud cheers.) Well, until I find that the people of England in their next election shall decide ad versely to justice to Ireland, I will not believe them capable of doing it. I will hope and I will speak —(loud cheers)—so far as lam able, and as oppor tunity may be given me, in favour of this great measure which is now before Parliament, for I be lieve it to be essential to the unity and strength and harmony of the United Kingdom, and I believe that, instead, to take the language of the present Prime Minister, offensive and impudent as it was— (applause)—instead of dimming the lustre of the British Crown, I say that it will be regarded in history as one of the most honourable fea tures of the reign of the present Queen if under her mild sceptre this United Kingdom can really be united, and Ireland made as con tented and loyal as any other portion of the Em pire. (Great cheers.) I had nearly forgotten why it was I stood up again. It would have been very ungrateful, because I feel much obliged to you for the kindness with which you have listened to me to-night ; I am too hoarse, my voice is out of tune, I could not have addressed you in the energetic and beautiful Welsh which I have listened to with so • much interest, although I could not understand it ; • but I should have said what I had to say much better had I been suffering less in that way ; but I I must conclude by asking you to pass a vote of . thanks to our chairman, whose kindness and whose good management of this meeting and whose attention we have all been witnesses of. I there fore beg to propose, and I have no doubt my friend Mr. Harcourt will be glad to second, a vote of thanks to the Chairman for his kindness in pre siding. Mr. VERNON II kRCOURT seconded the proposition, which was carried by acclamation. A large crowd, composed chiefly of Orangemen and persons hostile to the object of the meeting, collected iu front of the Amphitheatre before the proceedings closed, and paraded an effigy of Mr. Bright, which was subsequently burnt in a in t i d V i i s l t li v a r n b i: William son-square.

Applicant—lf other people have got possession of my property can't I recover it ? Mr. Arnold—Certainly you can. Applicant—Do you know I don't think she would have deserted me if she had been left to herself. Mr. Arnold—Don't you ? Applicant—No ; I don't.

Mr. Arnold— Yuu can recover that, as I have told you. Applicant—But they keep my wife, too. How am I to recover her ? Mr. Arnold—You must go to another court for that, and sue her f9r a restitution of conjugalrights. It is rather an expensive process. Applicant—ls it? lam very sorry for that.

Applicant—Then I can detain it? Mr. Arnold—Certainly. Applicant—l'm very much obliged to you. Mr. Arnold—Your wife's property is yours unless vested in trustees, and when it comes into her pos session it becomes yours.

A BRACE OF BLACKGUARDS.—George Finister and John Skinner, two rough-looking fellows, were brought before Mr. Benson, charged with upsetting a perambulator in Strathmore-terrace, Shadwell, and injuring a child. Mark Dickson, of No. 5, Vine-street, Brook street, Ratcliff, saw a little girl with a diseased spine in a perambulator, and another girl wheeling the machine along the street. Tne prisoners came along the street roiling drunk, noisy, and using offensive language. They upset the perambulator, and the little invalid fell out and was hurt. He expostulated with the prisoners , and they laughed at him, and capsized the perambulator twice after wards. He then called the police, and gave th e prisoners in custody. Other witnesses gave similar evidence, and it was clear the child in the perambulator was injured. The father of the child said he wished the pri soners to go free. Mr. Benson said the father of the little girl pre ferred the charge at the station - house, and might have withdrawn it there. lie should act on the charge. He was of opinion that the prisoners had been guilty of very brutal and disgraceful conduct. He fined the prisoners 21s. each, and in default 14 d.tys' imprisonment. On the occasion of the Emperor's visit to Rouen, his Majesty, as at Orleans, left in the hands of the authorities 10,000 f. for the local charitable institu tions and for the old men wearing the St. Helena medals. He also promoted ten persons to the rank of Officer in the Legion of Honour, and named 39 to be Knights of the same order. For the next ten years Austria proposes to have a million of men always available for purposes of war. That is t) say, 800,000 soldiers and 200,000 Landwehr or militia. These are the Government proposals ; they have yet to be submitted to the Diet and the iteichsrath. POTATOES.
