LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Jan. 18. FULLER. V. BENNET. This case was argued yesterday. The question was, whether Messrs. Chitty and Co., the solicitors, of Shaftesbury, were entitled to charge interest on advances made to their client, the late Sir John Dillon, without there being any agreement that the moneys were to be so advanced. The Master to whom the accounts were referred, and Vice-Chancellor Ifigrarn, who heard the matter on appeal, were both of opinion that interest could not be charged as an item of the account. The LORD-CHANCELLOR expressed the same opinion at the hearing, but took time to look into a correspond ence which was alleged to make out something like an agreement. His Lordship now said that the rule had been properly laid down by the Vice-Chancellor, and that the letters did not show a contract or agree ment. Nothing appeared to have been said or done by Sir John Dillon from which an agreement to pay interest could be implied. In some of the letters Sir John appeared to make a cempl,int of the sums en tered against him, and remarked that the balance from the receipts of rents ought to be in his favour. The objections being made to the general balance, it did not become necessary fur Sir John Dillon to enter into the particulars of the sums set down as interest. His Lordship repeated that there must be a distinct contract to entitle solicitors or agents to interest on money advanced to or for their principals ; and, as the order of the court below was right, the petition of appeal must be dismissed with costs. ROLLS COURT, Jan. 18. BARNARD GREGORY V. MARYCHURCH AND ANOTHER. In this case the plaintiff, having had large dealings as proprietor of a newspaper, called the Satirist, with Messrs. Wrigley, paper-manufacturers, of Lanca shire, owed a balance of 7561. for paper supplied up to the month of March, 1846. The paper-makers pressed for payment, and, being then unable to pay in cash, the plaintiff gave Messrs. Wrigley a judg ment for that amount, which was to bear interest at five per cent per annum. The judgment was to be paid off by two instalments, but when the first be came due it was unpaid, and the attorneys, Davies and Evans, threatening to enforce the judgment, Gregory authoriFei the said attorneys to sue a debtor, Mrs. Matters, and they recovered for his ac count 3001., which it was agreed to take by 1501. pre viously paid, and three promissory notes for 50/. each, which were suffered to remain in the said attor neys hands as assets to pay Messrs. Wrigley as an in stalment upon the judgment. The notes Evans paid, to the credit of his firm, into the Commercial Bank of London, and soon after the firm dissolved partner ship. Evans became bankrupt. Mr. Davies continued the business until Oct. 10, 1847, when he died. In a few days after one of the 50/. promissory notes of Sarah Matters was presented fir payment and dishonoured. The Commercial Bank had been paid since by the plaintiff, who in consequence sought to be reimbursed, and filed his bill against the defendant, the widow of the solvent partner in the firm of Davies and Evans, who had since married the Rev. Henry W. Mary - church, who also was made a co-defendant in this bill in Chancery. A reference was ordered to the Master, and interrogatories were sent in by the plain tiff, one of which was in these terms :—" Whether or not did the said John Evans, on the sth of July, 1847, or any other, and what other, day or time, draw on his said separate account with the said bank a cheque for the sum of 141. lls. 6d., or for some or what sum inclusive of 14/. 1 ls. 6d., in favour of said joint account of himself and the said David Davies with the bank ; if yea, was or was not such cheque returned to the said John Evans, with notice on the part of the said bunk that he had not, on his said separate account, sufficient effects to meet it ?” The defendant excepted to till:, interrogatory, as a leading interrogatory among others excepted to. The excep tions being allowed by the piaster the plaintiff brought the case before the court on exceptions to the Master's report. Mr. BEALES stated the case for the plaintiff ; Mr. Shebbeare appeared for the defendant. Lard LA.NGDALE overruled the decision of the Mlstcir, and decided against the exceptions taken by the defendant to the interrogatories. VICE-Ch ANCELLOR'S COURT, Jan. 18. (Before Sir L SIIADWELL.) The VICE-CHANCELLOR disposed of the unopposed petitions and short causes in the day's list. IN THE MATTER OF THE LONDON-BRIDGE APPROACH ACT. This was a petition for the investment of a sum of 400/., being the residua of a larger fund, which formed the purchase money of certain land bought by the corporation of London under an Act of Parliament. The Act provided for the payment, by the corporation, of all rea.l.onable expentes incurred from time to time under the Act. On this ground the petition asked that the costs of investing the residue should be pad by the corporation. Mr. Busk supported the petition ; Mr. Randall appeared contra. Toe VICE -CUANCELIOR said that the Act give ro stint, but rendered the corporation liable for all ex penses which might result from their dealing with the land of other poetic , . The corporation, therefore, ought to pay the costs. IN RE JERMT. This was a petition for the appointment of a guardian of the infant daughter of the late Mr. Jermy, Recorder of Ip3wich. It appeared that Mr. Jermy had appointed as his executor his son (who fell with his father by the assassin's hand) and another person, who had renounced, and the question now was, upon whom was to di-,volve the trust for the infant? Mr. Bird appeared f.”: the petition. The VICE-CHANCELLOR thought that the personal trust had perished with the executors, and that there must, therefore, be a reference to the Master. EX PARTB TIIE IMPERIAL BANK COMPANY. Mr C. HALL appeared for this petition for the usual reference, under the Winding-up Act, to wind up the affairs of the Imperial Bank. It appeared dat a suit in the same matter had been instituted under the title of " Walworth v. Holt," and a receiver had been appointed. It was now suggested by Mr. Little that the Master should be directed that the present receiver should be appointed also official manager under the Act, on the ground that it would be incon venient to have two receivers of the same property. The VICE-CHAI,CELLOR said that the appointment of a receiver might be a very proper thing at the time ; but when an application WA% made under the extensive authority given by the Winding-up Act, it was proper for the Master to judge who was a fit person to be appointed. COURT 01% EXCHEQUER, Jan is, (Sitting at Nisi Priu3 bef)re Mr. Baron ItorsE and a London Jury.) This was the first sitting at Guildhall in llilAry Term. The cases set down for trial were for the most part undefended. The following was the only case tried deserving of notice. CRANSTON V. MARSHAL AND ANOTHER. Mr. Ilumfry (with whom was Mr. Cleashy) ap peared for the plaintiff; Mr. Martin (with Mr. Wilde) represented the defendants. It appeared from the opening statement of the plaintiff 's Counsel. that he is an Irish schoolmaster, who, with his wifl and five children, resolved in the autumn cf last year to emigrate to Australia. The defendants, who are emigration agents and shipbro kers, carrying bn business in Fenchurch-street, on the 27tb of July last agreed to provide the plaintiff and his family with a passage and provisions, in a ship called the Asiatic, which was advertised to sail for Altlaide from London on the 15th of August, and from Plymouth on the 25th of Au gust, wind and weather permitting. The sum agreed upon with the plaintiff for the passage was 651.. one-half of which was deposited at the time the agreement was made. Upon the faith cf this agreement the'plaintiffbrought over his family from Ire land, and arrived at Plymouth on the 20th of August, the advertisement announcing that passengers' bag gage must be on board three days at least before that appointed fir sailing. On the 25th of August, the day the Asiatic was expected in Plymouth, the plain tiff ascertained that she had not left London, post poned and that, for some caus e or another, the sailing w for ten days at the least. The plaintiff not being in a position to incur the expense of maintain ing his family in Plymouth, relinguished the intention of going out in the Asiatic, and took his passage on board another vessel called the Constant, which had then got her clearance papers, and was about to sail from Plymouth. It so happened that, in consequence of some quarrel between the owners and the char terers of the Constant, she did not sail at the time appointed either, and the unfortunate plaintiff, after being detained in Plymouth until the month of S p tember, saw the vessel in which he had first taken bis passage sail before that in which he eventually proceeded. It was only fair, however, to state that the detention of the Constant occasioned no further loss to the plaintiff than the l oss o f ti me, as the charterers of that vessel kept the plai n tiff an d his familyuonntibloathrd their ship, finding them i n p rov i s i ons. plaintiff went on board the Constant, however, and e whilst waiting for the arrival o f the Asiatic., he at some expense, for which be now claimed 101, by w ay of damages ; and he'also claims to have back the WS PA PEkt sum of 321. 10'. deposited on the 27th July, as already mentioned, which the defendants had refused to ret urn to him. ;041 On the part of the defendants, it was submitted , ------ gApkr:kbat time was not of the essence of the contra c t ma d e with the plaintiff by the charterers of the Asiatic, .j4-.4 ',!" and that this was really an action by the owners of the Constant, a rival emigration ship, to whom the 41. plaintiff passed the receipt for 3:21. 103. as part pay ment of his passage-money. Mr. Baron ROLFE was of opinion that as the letter by which the defendants agreed to take out and pro vision the plaintiff and his family contained a printed statement that the ship was to sail from Plymouth on THE SUN, 'he 25th of August, wind and weather permitting, this must be considered a portion of the contract, for the violation of which the defendants were liab!e in damages. If the Court should be of a different opinion, however, the defendants should have leave to move to enter a nonsuit. He then 14fc it to the jury to assess the damages. The jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 401., which com prehended the 321. 10.4. paid by the plaintiff as part of the passage-money, and 71 105. expenses incurred before the arrival of the ship in Plymouth. COURT OF BAIVICRUPTCY, Jan. 18. (B-fore Mr. Commissioner FONELANQUF.) IN RE WEST AND WEST. The bankrupts, Elizabeth West and Alfred West, mother and sor, were tailors in Adelaide-street, Strand. Mr. Duncan opposed; Mr. Cooke supported the bankrupts. It appeared that the bankrupts had submitted to their creditors a statement showing that the firm had 1,1001. of good debts. .A lot of bills were drawn on the 11th of October on their various customers, amounting to 3371, and given to an uncle at Hast ings, who had become security to Mr. Dawson, draper, of Newgate-street. It further appeared that the balance-sheet would not bear the test cf exami nation. An adjournment was therefore ordered by the Commissioner. The bankrupts' debts are 1,357/. ; their assets nomi nal. The losses are put down at 9731. IN RE IVES AND IVES. The bankrupts were drapers at Norwich. This was the certificate meeting. Mr. Lawrance supported ; Mr. Bagley opposed on behalf of the assignees. The bankrupts' debts are 1,5681.; their assets 1601. Mr. BAGLEY submitted that the bankrupts had made away with property in an improper manner. The whole of the stock had been swept off in August last under bills of sale given by the bankrupts to an aunt, Mrs. Mary Ives, and other persons. The aunt was required to give evidence, but an affidavit having been put in, alleging that she had been unable to attend in consequence of illness, he submitted that there must be an adjournment. Mr. LAWRANCE urged that the amount received by Mrs. Ives had been no more than 451., and that the Odd Fellows Club being the party who had distrained under the powers of a bill of sale for 4001., it was not probable that there had been anything collusive in the matter. His HONOUR held that the creditors were entitled to have the evidence of Mrs. Ives, and adjourned the certificate meeting for that purpose. IN RE G. STEWARD. The bankrupt was a pawnbroker at Norwich. His capital in 1845 was 501. His debts are now 1,575/. ; his assets 8951. Mr. Luca?, on behalf of the assig nees, succeeded in resisting the bankrupt's passing his examination, and any allowance being made. The bankrupt, having 2301. in hand, had put his creditors to the expense of about 250/. in disputing the adjudi cation of bankruptcy, and appealing to the Court of Review. IN RE HENRY STRATTON. A petition in bankruptcy was taken out this day against Henry Stratton, one of the proprietors of the Bucks Chronicle, who absconded on the 27th of De cember last from Aylesbury, and whose name has been brought before the public i❑ connexion with the savings' bank at that place. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Jan. 18._ (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant Judge.) The Court sat yesterday at Clerkenwell for the purpose of disposing of petitions and appeals. There were fifty-two in the list. LOLA MOICTEZ ' BAIL. Henry Daniel Davies, solicitor, of Warwick-street, Regent street, appealed against an order made by Peregrine Bingham, E3q., one of the magistrates at the Marlborough -street police-court, for the payment c f the amount of a recognizance entered into by the said Henry Daniel Davies, for the appearance before the said P. Bingham, Esq., of Marie ,Dolores Corn tesse de Landsfeld (Lola Montez). There was a like appeal against the same order by Daniel Davies. Upon the application of Mr. Bodkin, who ap peared for the appellants, and with the consent of Mr. Clarkson, who appeared in support of the order, the hearing of both the appeals was postponed until the April General Sessions. The appeals disposed of during the day involved questions as to parochial settlements, of no public interest. Several appeals against parochial rates were postponed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. ' John Stretton was brought up in- the custody of Barber (102), before Alderman Humphery, charged with being a begging letter impostor. Mr. John Cassell, cf 80, Fenchurch-street, tea dealer, said, on Wednesday I received the following letter : "Sir,—Under circumstances of no ordinary nature do I thus venture t address you; nothing short cf my truly ra nful s't ation could comp! me to do so. "I bez resreclally to state that I am a native of Edinburgh, and fJr many years wa3 in business at No. 12, Leith-street; but owing t) misfortunes in tra le, ' caused by an aecumu'ati, n of bad debts, I wai reduced from a state of ccmparativo corcfat t that of distress. Three mouths ago I found , myself thrown into this huge city, with no capital Leyond the introdnct.iry recom endationi furnisLel me by my friends; and when I state that I have a wit') and young family solely depending upon me, and have been unemployed since I came here, I arm admitting but a small portion cf the cow event privations we have undergcne. " I am aware that you must have many applications cf nearly a similar nature, but I would respectfully sub mit that yon are aware there are some who are not ob trusive, and who do not complain before being com pelled. In humbly representing myself as being cf tb class, I shall be most grateful for a small portion of your sympathy. lam not pleading for myself, but fir others whose necessities augment my miseries, and I have not committed myself by exposing my situation until driven by tt e sternest and most unmitigated distress. Since Mon day, at twelve at noor, my little ones have had no bread. Under these I sinful circumstances might I fondly anti cipate a little pecuniary assistance t)wards alleviating my present situation? I❑ doing so such condescension will be remembered with every sense off cling. " I have the honour to re neje, Sir, " Your v. ry humble servant, " ALEXR. SUTHERLAND. " P.S. I may here mention that I have good prospects of employment when Parliament sits. " January, 1850." I happened to know Mr. Sutherland, to whom the note alluded, having formerly served him with goods, and I questioned the prisoner as to the premises of that gentleman, and found beyond all doubt that the character was assumed for the purpose of imposing upon me. I then told my clerk to give the poor man " half-a-crown," and when the prisoner pocketed the money I told him my opinion of him, which he then acknowledged was correct, and he admitted that the letter was fictitious. The prisoner said, he was really compelled by the distress he had described, which was far from being fictitious, to resort to that mode of obtaining tempo rary relief. He was not, he confessed. Mr. Suther land, but he was as badly situated in his finances as any person of the name could he; and he hoped that, as he was detected in his first attempt and never in tended to make another, the Alderman would bear lightly upon him. Alderman HUMPHERY—You shall not make another attempt for some time at any rate. You have not only forged the name of one individual to cheat another, but you have by such an expedient, per haps, put the credit of the party you personated into jeopardy. I convict you, and sentence you to im prisonment in Bridewell and hard labour for three months. You are accomplished in this particular line of business, and this letter and all the circum stances a`test your skill in the trade. Take my ad vice, and abandon it henceforward. If the money had not been given to you in the way of charity you would have been lisble to transportation for seven years. The prisoner—Consider my wife and children. Alderman HournEur—Wife and children point the way to industry, not to robbery. It is better for them and for society that they should go to the union than that you should succeed in such an avocation as you have chosen, the tendency of which is to dry up the fountain of all charity. A lad, named John Connoe, was charged with hav ing maliciously stabbed Henry Smith. C. 11. Rix, cigar -sorter, of Great Alio- street, Good man's-fields, said, on Saturday, the sth instant, about a quarter to two o'clock, the prisoner and several others were playing together on St. Dunstan's-hill. They were all boys, in the employment of Mr. Ro binson, of St. Dunstan's-hill, cigar -manufacturer. The prisoner and a boy named Croft were playing at marbles, and Smith and some others were throwing about a basket, which they at last put upon the head of the prisoner, who, when Smith went to take it off, stabbed him with a knife and then ran away. Smith called out that he was stabbed, and the blood flowed into his trousers. I saw the blood and the cut in the waistband of the trousers, and I took the boy to a surgeon, and then to the hospital. It appeared from the evidence of one of the lads who had been playing together that Smith held the prisoner while the others put the basket on his head. Smith, the complainant, said—l went behind the prisoner to lay hold of him in play, as the basket was on his head, and he said " If you don't get away I'll stab you," and he immediately stabbed me in the left side of the body, and the blood ran down. I had la id no quarrel with him. The prisoner was committed for trial. G UILDHALL. Mr. Showier, inspector of Smithfield-market, ap plied for the magistrates' order to destroy some sheep which had been seized that morning, having been brought up ill waggons and placed in the pens; but LONDON, the salesman would not receive them, although he had a consignment note, which he refused to show to the police. Alderman CARDEN asked where the sheep were now ? Showier replied, " That they were in the hands of the police." Alderman CARDEN thought that as they were so bad as to require an order for their destruction, steps should be taken to punish the parties sending such cattle to market for human consumption. Russell, one of the officers of the market, stated that he understood these were a part of a flock of 600 from the north of Spain, which were seized as soon as landed by the Government about four months ago; 200 of them had died and been buried, and these were some of those that had been sold by Government to defray expenses, at the rate, he understood, of 3s. Gd. per head. Alderman CARDEN said he thought it was not very discreet on the part of the Government authorities to sell any of them, if it was merely to cover expense 3. The Chief Clerk suggested that some evidence should be taken upon oath. David Showier, inspector of Smithfaeld•market, said that about half-past eight o'clock that morning he seized 38 sheep in a " scabby" state, which were totally unfit for human food. George Russell, 34, said that about twenty minutes past ten o'clock be was in Smithfield-market, and observed two carts full of sheep, opposite the pens of Mr. John Hill. Thirty-eight were put into the pens, and he saw that they had the " scab" very bad, and were much emaciated, in consequence of which he called the attention of another officer to them, and they were removed from the market. Alderman CARDEN—Do you think they were in fectious ? Russell—l certainly do. Alderman CARDEN—To whom were they con signed ? Russell—To Mr. Hill, who admitted that he had the consignment notice, but refused to show it; upon which I warned him not to destroy it, and told him the present application would be made. George Frew, 26, said, he was called to look at the sheep, and found them in a very bad state. They had the "scab," and some of them had the wool off, while others were scarcely able to stand. He helped to take them to the Ram-yard, and examined them, mad from their appearance he should say they had had the smallpox, ana some of them were still labouring under that disease. Mr. Nice, the veterinary surgeon, was called, and after examining them, said they were totally unfit for food, and were still suffering the disease of smallpox. Alderman CARDEN—Is Mr. Hill a large salesman ? Frew—He is not. Alderman CARDEN—Did you ascertain the name of the consignee ? Frew—The name on the carts was Mr. Geer, of Stratford, and if Mr. Geer gave 3s. 6d. per head for the sheep he gave as much as they were worth. _ _ _ Russell said they were in a most infectious state at present. Alderman CAUDEN said it was no wonder that legs and shoulders of mutton were soextraordinarily cheap when sheep could be purchased for little or nothing. He should thoroughly investigate the affair, for he was not at all satisfied with letting the owners off by merely condemning the animals, but he was deter mined to punish them as far as the law would allow him. He therefore ordered that the 38 sheep should be destroyed, and that summonses should be taken out against Mr. Geer for sending the sheep, and against Mr. Hill to produce the consignment note on Tues day next. The usual order was then made out for the destruc tion of the sheep and handed to the officers. BO W-STREET. James Callaghan, Robert Horlock, William Hor lock (his brother) and John Jeffery, late in the ser vice of the combined City and Iron Steam-boat Companies, as cheque and money takers, were placed at the bar, before Mr. Jardine, charged with con spiring to defraud their employers and embezzling money to a large amount. Mr. Cattarns, the solicitor to the company, attended for the prosecution, and explained the nature cf the alleged conspiracy and fraud. The men had been in the habit, in concert with a fellow-servant named Jackson (who had absconded), of privately handing the tickets received at one pier back to the sta tion from which they were issued, and then giving the same cheques to passengers, instead of tearing out fresh tickets from the cheque-books. The money arisiag from this fraudulent double sale of the old tickets had been usually divided among the men, and the company were wholly unable to conjecture the amount of which they had been robbed, as the sys tem had been traced back two years and upwards. Sus picions were first directed against the prisoners by an anonymous letter sent to the company, in a fit of drunkenness, by one of the prisoners' wives, and ulti mately by the confession of one of the delinquents (Callaghan) ; although upon the former intimation an inquiry, which ended in the acquittal of the men, was instituted, it was intended only to offer sufficient evidence on the present occasion to secure the re mand of the'prisoners for furthar examination. Mr. E award Mitchinson, of Chelsea, superinten dent of the steam boat company, stated, that CJII3- gban was a cheque-taker at the Cadogan-pier, Chelsea; Jeffery was a money-taker at the Hungerford-pier ; and the two other prisoners assisted in both capa cities as occasion required. Henry Jackson, the man who had absconded, was money-taker at the London-pier, hut a box in his possession, containing documents which implicated all the others as well as himself, had been secured. On Wednesday last Callaghan made a confession in the presence of wit ness and Mr. Cattarns, at the latter gentleman's office, to the effect that he had taken back old tickets to Jackson and Jeffery, by whom they were re-sold to passengers, and the produce shared amongst them. Mr. JARDINE remanded the prisoners for a week for further evidence, refusing to admit either of them to bail. SATURDAY EVENING, PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, ANT: OTHER COM- PANIES' stocK.

Yesterday Alfred England, a notorious thief, and who had been remanded from Thursday last on a charge of breaking the shop-window of Mr. Miller, a watchmaker and jeweller, and stealing watches, chains, and other property, of the value of 501., was finally examined before Mr. Norton. The robbery, it will be recollected, bad been com mitted in the most impudent manner, at seven o'clock in the evening, and in one of the most lead ing thoroughfares in Llndon. The thief, in the first place, tied the shop-door to the scraper; and though Mr. Miller was engaged behind the counter at the time, he (the thief) had sufficient time to help him- self to eight watches, eight chains, and other pro perty, and got round the corner into Penton-place before Mr. Miller could get the shop-door open. Three witnesses, who were close on the spot at the time, and saw the man break the window and take the property, made no effort to secure him, nor could they speak to his identity. The prisoner called his father and brother as wit nesses in his favour, but though their statement dif fered somewhat widely from his, Mr. Norton, taking into consideration the fact that the prisoner had de livered himself up at the station, and other circum stances, believed him innocent of the charge, and dis charged him. A WOMAN WITH Two HusmtsiDs.—A. man named Sharp was brought up on a warrant for refusing to support his wife ; but the latter having admitted that she had been married upwards of twenty years ago to another man in court, while she had only been married fourteen years to Sharp, Mr. Norton dismissed the complaint. THE RUSSIAN LOAN.—THE MEETING IN THE CITY.—We are glad t perceive that the proposed loan of five millions for the service of Russia—a power which has crushed for a time, by the most treacherous and ty rannical proceedings, the rising liberties of the continent —has not been taken by the great Jewish capitalists. Some short time age, a leading journal published most grievous daily Jeremiads about the impropriety of rais ing large sums in the London money-market for railroad purposes, even though the outlay was expended at home, and to that cause ascribed the panics we have just sur vived. Now, however, it suits the policy of that journal to advocate the propriety of the new Russian loan of five millions, ostensibly brought forward to complete a Russian railway. Whether that be the re al purpose of the loan or not, it is not our business to inquire; but we may be permitted to rejoice that a Jewish house has not had the negotiation ef a loan for a power so adverse to every principle of civil and religious liberty. Further, we have to ;say, that if our own railroads "absorbed our capital" to the destruction of so many eminer.t houses, it is to be hoped that it will not be really " absorbed" in a Russian railroad, and tend to bring about a fresh dis turbance of our money market, so leading the unwary trader to endure another excruciating process for the "correction of the exchanges," and the especial enrich ment of those who are denounced by the prophet Ezekiel as having "taken usury and increase, and greedily gained ( f their neighbours by extortion" (Ezek. xxi. 12). Whatever may be the issue of the meeting called in the City, as suggested by Mr. Cobden, it will have one good reralr, being an open proof t f the increasing influence of higher principles than the mere sordid love of gain.--Jewish Chronicle. TEE JEWS AND GENERAL LITERARY AND SCIEN TIFIC INSTITUTION.—TIie anniversary ball of this insti tution took place on Thursday at Willis's Rooms. The object of the institution. may be gathered from its title. It extends to the mem burs of the Jewish community, without confining to t'aem those benefits which are ren dered by the literary and scientific institutions now so generally spread throughout the metropolis. An extee sive library, readirv-rooms, classes for the study of lac gouges and generral branches of irtirmation are open to the members; and lectures are periodically delivered by among The ball whom w a s m e a x y tr b e e m f e o l u y n w d e s il o a m t e a. d co is m ti p n e g t u e i n s t hei(r oo n rs a o m n e s e ,. tsnded, and dancing was kept up to a late hour to the music of an excellent band, provided by the übiquitous Jullien.

The an nual ball which takes place at Clevedon was fixed Ur the above evening, and a great number of persons left Bristol by the down train for the purpose of attend ing it. After the train bad arrived at the Yatton station, the persons were transferred to the Cievedon junction (a short branch line), and on arriving at that ter minus the trains, as usual, souneed the whistle, but reelected to apply the break. The consequence war, the engine dashed with frightful velocity into the Clevedon station, went right throug h the end of it, coming out in the roadway. Most fortunately, beyond the unavoidable co ncuss ion, thei o was no injury done : the engine-driser and stoker escapoi byjumping off. It is to be hoped some inquiry will be made by the direc tors into the cause of this accident, which, fortunately, was not attend e d w i t h a ny loss e f lifs or injury to limb.

INSTITUTION OF CIVIL ENGINEERS On Tuesday, January, 15, 1850, William Cubitt, Esq., President, in the chair, the paper read was, "An Account of the Blackfriars Landing-pier," by Mr. P. Lawrence. This pier commences on the Middle sex side of the river, to the east of Blackfriars-bridge, at Chatham-place, and continues parallel to the bridge, and at a distance of forty feet from it, for a length of 185 feet. The body of the pier (exclusive of the head) is supported on four piers, two of which consist of a single row, and two of a double row of piling, forming three spans of fifty feet each, and having about eight feet headway under them at high-water. The floating barge, or dumby, on which the passengers land, is one hundred feet long and twenty-five wide, rising and falling with the tide, in grooves at each end, formed by piles and pro tected by dolphins. The connexion between the dumby and the pier is by a moveable stage eight feet wide and fifty feet long, secured to the pier head, at one end by a hinge joint, and the other end similarly connected to a flight of steps, on wheels, which moved on a tramway fixed to the deck of the barge. The principal portion of the timber used in its con struction was fir ; but the whole, whether of fir or oak, was impregnated by Payne's process, those portions :below high-water mark being further pro tected by a coating of Stockholm tar. The whole of the cast and wrougbt iron work was galvanized. The Corporation of London had ooserved the ne cessity for an improved landing place, so early as 1841, but it was net until a fatal accident occurred in 1844, that any decided steps were taken in the matter; then Messrs. Walker and Barges received instructions to prepare a design, which was approved, and the pier was commenced in March, 1845, and completed in October of the same year, under the superintendence of Mr. Hewett, M. Inst. C.E. The total cost was about 4,0001. The next paper read was a " Description of a Timber Bridge, erected over the River Ouse, on the line of the Lynn and Ely Railway," by Mr. J. S. Valentine, M. Inst. C. E. The total length of this bridge was four hundred and fifty feet, divided into eleven bays, ten of thirty span each, tend one over the river of one hundred and twenty feet span on the square, and one hundred and twenty• one feet six inches on the skew. This river opening consisted of three laminated timber bows, resting upon stone piers, the material for which was procured from the New Leeds Quarries. The dimen sions of the bows were, length of chord, one hundred and twenty-one feet six inches; versed sine, fourteen feet two inches ; and their depth, three feet eight inches ; the width of the outer bows was two feet two inches, that of the centre bow two feet nine inches. They were formed of fifteen layers of three-inch deals abutting upon a cast iron plate, bolted to the tie-beams, which consisted of t wo whole timbers scarfed and bolted together. Each tie-beam was suspended from the bows by thirteen wrought-iron rods, two inches in diameter, and between these diagonal struts were fitted. Transverse joists, notched on to the tie beams, extended across the whole width of the bridge, and on these the rail-bearers were laid, the intervening spaces being filled with three-inch deals, laid longitudinally. The works were commenced in the autumn of 1846, and completed in October, 1847 ; the total cost of the superstructure being about 3,7441. When tested, by placing three locomotive engines on each line of rails, the total deflection was only three eighths of an inch. The paper announced to be read at the meeting of Tuesday, Jan. 22, was No. 819. "On the Periodical Alternations and Progressive Permanent Depression of the Chalk Water Level under London," by the Rev. J. C. Clutterbuck. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF FRIDAY.
