Lord BROUAM moved for further returns re lating to the removal of cases from the county courts. The former returns showed that the writs of certiorari to remove causes into the superior courts applied for had only amounted to one in forty thousand cases. Agreed to. SALE OF ARSENIC BILL. The Earl of CARLISLE moved the third reading of this Bill. He proposed that not only the seller should enter the name of the purchaser in a book, but that the purchaser should also enter his own name in the same book. It had been represented that several cases of ac- cidental poisoning had occurred, and it had therefore been prcposed that arsenic should be coloured. That might interfere with its use in the arts, but not for its use in agriculture; ne therefore proposed that no arsenic should be sold in less quantities than ten pounds, except in cases where it was to be used for the arts, unless it should be coloured with indigo or soot, and that no arsenic should be sold to any but a male adult person; and he should also propose that no arsenic in a less quantity than ten pounds should be sold except in the presence of a person known to the seller. He thought it would bo better not to clog this Bill by enacting any regulations with regard to the cther poisons. The Bill as amended was read a third time and passed. IMPORTATION OF FLOUR. The Earl of liESNIIT moved for an account for the yoat•s 1849 and 1850, and for the first quarter of the year 1851 respectively, of the number of quarters of wheat, barley, and oats, and of the number of sacks and barrels of flour respectively, imported into England, Ire land, and Scotland severally, from the United States of America, from Canada, from France, and from all other parts of Europe, distirguishing the quantity of those articles sent from each country respectively; also stating the number of qaariers of wheat to which the entire number of sacks and barrels from each country are an equivalent, stating the difference of cost of freight between imported flour and imported wheat from France, Canada, and the United States respectively. Our millers suffered greatly by the competition of the Freach millers, who, by an improved method of con structing mills, were enabled to undersell the English millers. Earl GREY was disposed to think that the competi tion of the French miller would be greatly to the advan tage of this country. It was clear that in conse quence of our superior command of coal we could beat all the world in steam machinery, And now mills were erecting on the most improved prin ciple, which would enable us to produce a superior article to the French at a cheaper rate. The French had imposed a high duty on the importation of coal, and that operated as a bounty to our miller; and the French miller was confined to one particular species of corn, whereas our miller had the range of the world; and the consequence would be that our miller would eventually distance the world, and that the article would be greatly improved to7the advantage of the consumer. Lord STANLEY said that, however excellent and able might be the argument of the Noble Earl, the fact was French flour was now coming in. Earl GREY said the fact was that mills upon the French principle were now erecting in this country. With regard to prices, he had never attempted to say what the price of corn or flour would be. Price must always he left to regulate itself. Earl FITZ WILLIAM considered that we were quite competent to compete with the millers of France. The Earl of MALNIESIXTRY complained that we were inundated with French corn and flour. The millers who thought to make fortunes by grinding foreign corn had found that they were beat by Frcnch millers. At this. moment every a:tempt was being made to improve the agriculture of this country. Our corn was ground by steam, the French was ;;round by water-mills, and, therefore, we were competing by artificial means against natural powpr• PETITIONS. Earl FITZWILLIAM presen'.ed seven' petitions against Papal agp,rrestion. The Earl of WINCHILSEA. presented several peti tions from various places in Englund and Ireland against Papal aggr,2ssion, and praying that no cardinal m ay be auff.,red to reside in this country, that no person be permitted to publish any bull, that all monasteries and nunneries be put under inspection, and that all Jesuit: be banished the realm. He trusted that some mes. ,- .ure would be introduced to prevent persons being iiiimured in monasteries against their will. It was impossible to read the ac counts of the cases in the newspapers withcut feeling the necessity of some such measure, and he hoped the Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack in a case. — Lord CAMPBELL roce to order. The Noble Earl was out of order in alluding to a case which was at the pre sent moment the subject of an inquiry in a court of just ice. - The petitions were then laid on the table. The Marquis of BREADALBANE prvsented several petitions against Papal aggression, and praying for the enactment of an efficient measure against it. Several of these petitions were presented from cengrega tiona of the Free Church of Scotland. Some of them prayed that measures might be taken by her Ilajest3's Government to ensure for Protestants the same degree of toleration in Rome as Catbol cs enjoyed here. Their Lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'clock. NEW MEMBER. Sir WILLIAM GALLWAY, introduced by Mr. Henry Herbert and Mr. A. Stafford, took the oaths and his sea' for Thirsk. PETITIONS. A petition was presented by Mr. Alderman and Sheriff Carden and Mr. Sheriff Hodgkinson, from the Corpora tion of Louden, praying for a revision of the law of settlement and asses went to the poor -rates, and that owners and occupiers of property in the City may be rated according to the value of their holdings. A great number of petitions were presented by Sir R. INGLIS and other Members against the Papal aggres sion, grounding the complaints chiefly on its being to tally imeompatible with the eajoyment of civil and reli gious liberty. Colonel TYNTE presented petitions from Bridgewater and other places against the v.indow-tax. Mr. TUFSELL presented petitions from the Wes leyan congregations cf Morice-town Chapel, Morice street and Kerr-street, in Devonport, in favour of the E celegiastical Titles Bill. Mr. J. SMITH presented petitions praying for a revi sion of the system adopted in enforcing the income tax, and stating that very improper persons were aPPeinted to collect the duty. Among those in Scotland 'am a boy scarcely fourteen years of age, who was alto getherbetween making incapacitated from the necessary distiec- Lions the parties assessed . Mr. MOODY presented sixty petitions, chiefly from Wesleyan Methodist congregations in different parts of the country, against the Papal aggression. Mr. CAYLEy presented several petitions from the N or th Riding of Yorkshire praying fur the abolition of the paper duty. Mr. CAYLEY als o presented several petitions from the same district, complaining of the distress now expe rienced by the farmers and their labourers from the operation of free trade. Mr. CHRISTOPLIBR presented petitions from Kir ton.in-Lindsey, and from Bartoil.,,. Humbcr, to the same e ff ect. Lord BARRINGr and several ot h er Mem b ers TON presented petitions again 3 t the Papal ar.,e 4 „ 3zion. Lord DRUMLANRIG presented petitions f rom seve ral places in D um f r i es shire, in favour:c.)f the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill. Mr. RICE presented petitione, signed by sou in. hal.iitants end the Chamber of COMMCTCO of D o ,,, tr, stating several objections to the window tax. Mr. Alderman 1-11.1MPLIENY presented a petitio n from fiermor4ey, praying for the re-int rodeetien Of the seeond and third clauses into the Ecclesiastical Thies Bill. Mr. REYNOLDS presented a petition from the mem bers of the Apothecaries' Hall in Ireland, signed by the Governor, and sealed with their common seal, pray ing that the Medical Charities Bill may not pass ; and that if it clo pass that the ter.th clause may be so modi fied that it dlould not injure the medical practitioners who are members et the hall. 1,41:) kir.

ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES RILL AND PAPAL AGGRESSION. A" At number of petitions Were again presented .• . 1 uric' gme subjects. THE SUN, BIBLE MONOPOLY. Mr. HUME having presented several petitions against the Bible monopoly, moved for the returns of the number of Bibles which had been printed; and also for returns of the amount of duty which had been remitted for the purpose of printing those Bibles. COLLISIONS OF STEAM-VESSELS. Mr. HUME also moved for returns of the number and consequence of the collisions which had taken place between steam•vessels at sea. SPANISH TARIFF. Mr. G. BANKES gave notice that on Thursday he should move for returns of the duty levied on British vessels and goods in Spanish ports, and Spanish vessels and goods in British ports. EXPENSES OF PROSECUTIONS BILL. At the request of Mr. DEEDES, Sir G. GLEY agreed to postpone the report of this Bill from Wednesday to Wednesday week, as he thought it advisable that the several alterations proposed in the clauses should be in the hands of Members some days before they were considered in the House, and he should therefore move that the report be brought up on Wed nesday week. THE EASTER ADJOURNMENT. In reply to a question from _, Lord ROBERT GROS VENOR, Lord JOHN RUSSELL stated that on the Thursday befbre Easter Sunday he should move that the Howe should adjourn till the following Monday so'nnight. MERCANTILE MARINE BILL. In reply to Mr. HUME, Mr. LABOUCHERE stated that he had never at any time denied that he thought the details of this Bill were susceptible of improvement; but at the same time he must say that he intended to adhere firmly to the prin ciple of the Bill. Ho should, however, bring in the amended Bill in such time as would enable Members to duly consider its provisions with a view to its becoming law before the House rose for the prorogation. MISS TALBOT. Mr. REYNOLDS said that there was a subject to which he was exceedingly desirous of drawing the attention of the House for a few moments, and this request ho made as a personal favour to himself. It was to every man of honourable feeling an object well worthy of regard to retain his standing in that House by stating there that which he knew to be true. —(Hear.) There, as well as elsewhere, he was always particularly careful to say nothing of which he was not perfectly cognizant. Feeling this responsibility, he was partieularly struck with the bold assertion of the lion. Member for the city of London, and with the still more bold contradiction of the Hon. Member for Marylebone (Sir B. Hall), when he asserted that Miss Talbot was not and never had been a postulant.—(Flear, hear.) He now deliberately repeated that assertion—(Hear, hear, cheers, and laughter)—that Miss Talbot was not, and never had been, a postulant. He had it from the bishop who superintended the convent in which it was said Miss Talbot was immured, that she was not at the present moment a postulant.—(Hear, hear.) He did not mean to impugn the assertions of Mr. Craven Berkeley or any of his friends in that House. He believed that which they said they believed to be true.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear," and ironical cheers.) Nevertheless he was wrong.—(Renewed laughter, and ironical cheers.) He was bound to say that the Hon. Member for Oxford had treated him with all courtesy, but he had never re ceived the letter which had been addressed to him, and he should therefore content himself with again asserting . that Miss Talbot was not, and never had been, a postu lant.—(Hear, hear, and ironical cheers.) Sir B. HALL said that it appeared from the speech of the Hon. Member for Dublin that one man had said onethihg and another that which was totally opposite to the assertion of the first, and yet that both might be perfectly right.—(Lond laughter and cheers.) All he had to say was that what he (Sir B. Hall) had asserted respecting Miss Talbot he bad from one of the Hon. Member's own bishops.—(Hear, hear, and laughter.) He had believed the bishop in preference to Mr. Reynolds, and he was sorry for it.—(Laughter.) THE ECCLESIASTICAL TITLES BILL. heads of which are removed. Sixthly, a heavy charge upon the country, for the removal of convicts to Austi a lia. And seventhly, the evil of wives and children being. separated from their husbands and fathers,—some, in all probability, for ever. This sort of train of disasters is all clearly traceable to the inhumanity and impolicy of the game-laws. The modus operandi is thus. Poaching is not in itself gene rally regarded as a crime. The poor man, who perchance is starving, does not view it as wrong in the eye of Nature, whatever it may be in that of the law, to ap• propriate to his own aliment the wild creatures denominated "game," and meeting with resistance, and knowing the extreme severity of the law, he employs force in return, and loss of life is not unfrequently the result. We do not say the cffender is justified in this: on the contrary, we think his conduct utterly indefen sible. We merely adduce it to show how the system works. In alluding to this painful topic, we cannot forbear making an observation on the extreme severity of the sentences passed upon some of the prisoners in the above case. The prosecutor might and ought to have con tented himself with proceeding against the chief offender, Chapman, for felony, and against the rest simply for nig,ht-poaching. Such would have been a just as well as merciful course, for the punishment even of night-poach ing is more than sufficiently severe. This, however, would not suffice. The whole pcund of flesh was de manded. In olden days, 'twas said,— " And felons hang, that jurymen may dine." In modern days, men are transported that gentlemen may shoot. The ratepayers of Derbyshire have now a peculiarly fitting opportunity to petition the Legislature to remove this stigma from our national escutcheon. The Scarcliff case will furnish them with a good ground-work for an effective petition to Parliament. —Nottingham Review. THE ADJOURNED DEBATE. A large number of petitions having been presented for and against the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, Mr. FAGAN rose to resume the adjourned debate, and in the course of his opening observations again went over the grounds of Miss Talbot's case, and then went on to say that unless the measure of the Pope was acceded to. it would be utterly im possible that any adequate provision could in the present day be made fur the increasing wants of the Roman Catholic community. Much had been said with respect to the measures of Cardinal Wiseman. Why was it not evident that this was a mere pretext? (LEFT BPEAKING.) THE ROMAN CATHOLIC WILL CASE. (From the Observer.) It will be recollected that during the hearing of the case of " Metairie v. Wiseman," an affidavit made by the solicitor for the plaintiff was read, in which he stated that Mr. John Athanasius Cooke, the barrister, who had been employed by the priest (Mr. Holdstock) to prepare the will and deed of gift to the Roman Catholic charity for the dying man, had also been occupying himself in a similar manner for an old lady, whose will he had drawn and prepared for signature, without the intervention of a so licitor, law stationer, or any other responsible legal agent. It was contended by Mr. Coolie's counsel that this course was perfectly justifiable. That, in fact, he was very greatly to be praised for his amiable conduct in doing his best to forward the charitable intention of poor old Cars 6, and this without charging any fee for his disinterested la bour, not but what the 50/. legacy from a perfect stranger might be considered by some people 03 a tolerably g )od payment for preparing a deed and will. How ever this may be, we cannot but think that the genera! welfare of society is better taken care of by adhering to the good old rule of employing a properly qualified solicitor to perform these charitable offices, particularly when the testa'or disinherits his nearest relatives at the urgent entreaties of a priest, and is in duced to give two-thirds of his property to a Roman Catholic charity in hopes of saving his soul from par gatory. The case alluded to by the plaintiff's solicitor will shortly come before the Court of Chancery upon a bill filed for the administration of the estate of an old lady, named Mrs. Ann Tucker, a c.,nvert to the Roman Catholic religion. The principal feature in her will is the variety of donation. to human Catholic clergy, the considerable amount of the legacies left to them, and at the same time the inconsiderable amount of the legacies left to all her relations, of whom she seems to have had a great number. At the present time this case will no doubt excite an unusual degree of interest, tend ing as it does to show the influence exercised by the Ramish priesthood over the aged and infirm, when all the fears of purgatory are set before their eyes, and also to show how the nearest relatives of such infatuated and weak-minded persons may be deprived of their property by the intervention of priests and those act ing under their authority. The will of Mrs. Tucker has already been proved at Doctors'-com mons, and may be read by any person who chooses to pay his shilling for the privilege. Ir, is dated July 6, 1849. The testatrix died at the age of eighty and up wards. She describes herself as a widow, residing at 27, Holywell-street, Westminster. In the first place, she appoints the Rev. Monsignor Anthony Magee, priest of the Roman Catholic Chapel iu Romuey-terrace, West minster, John Athanasius Cooke, Esq , barrister-at-law, and John Tucker, executors of her will. She then gives a legacy of 100/. to her servant, and 1001. to the Rev. John Barnard Palmer, Abbot of the Monastery of " our Lady of La Trappe." She then gives to her nephews and nieces and other friends 530/. To the person who at the time of her death should be Superioress of the Convent of the Good Shepherd at Hammersmith, 19 guineas, for the benefit of the convent. To eight different priests belonging to various chapels the sum of 1101. for the benefit of schools and other chari ties connected with such chapels. To Bishop Davies, bishop of the district of Wales, 40/. To Bishop Wareing, of Northampton, 101. To the 11ev. Edward Kenny, priest of the Roman Catholic chapels at Bridport, 101. To the Reverend J. Holding, priest of St. George's Roman Catholic church at Whitthaven, 19 guineas. To the priest of the Roman Catholic chapel at Maryport, 51. To the priest of a chapel in Jersey, 41. To the Rev. H. Ivers priest of the chapel in Kentish -town, 51. ; and to the officiating priest at a chapel at Hackney, 51. To four of her friends, 401.; and to each of her executors, for their trouble in acting as such, 19 guineas. The tes tatrix then gives all the property she expected to receive under a decree in a Chancery suit to her executors, to be sold and converted into money, and the proceeds to be held upon - trust to pay her debts and funeral expenses, and such portions of her legacies as the rest of her personal property should be insufficient to satisfy, and subject thereto upon trust, as to two-fourth parts for the said Rev. Dr. Magee, as to one-fourth upon trust for her mother and sister as tenants in common, and as to one moiety of the remain ing forth in trust for the Rev. J. B. Palmer and the Rev. W. J. Daly, priest of the Roman Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception, at Penzance, in equal shares, and as to the other moiety of the remaining fourth part in trust for her five nephews and nieces equally. The testatrix then declared that in case any bequest in her will should become void or inoperative by reason of the operation of any rule cf law, or by lapse or otherise, the pro perty as to which such bequests should so become void, should not vest in her heir or heirs-at-law, or in any of her next of kin, but should fall into and become part of her residuary property, and belong to the person to whom such residue was bequeathed. And she then be queathed the residue and remainder of her estate, both real and personal, to the said Rev. Dr. Magee, his heirs, executors, and administrators. The property of the testatrix will amount, it is supposed, to about 10,000/., and it' such be the exact sum, the relations and friends of the testatrix will get about 4,030/, and the priests 5,9701, besides what may fall into the residue.

We are glad to find that the preparation In every part of the western halt of the building are pushed on with untiring energy, and with every prospect that our native industry can by the Ist of May fearlessly invite the inspection of the whole worlds The department of machinery still takes the lead, and many of the most interesting objects comprised in it are far advanced towards completion. The public will regret to hear that in this part of the col lection, closely identified as it is with the industrial reputation of the country, the Nasmyth hammer, ono of our greatest mechanical wonders, is not to be included. The space requisite was allottep to Mr. Nasmyth for the purpose of showing his great invention, and every body is quite at a loss to understand why at the list mo ment he declines coming forward; the expense of fit ting up cannot be the obstacle. Among other objects which will no doubt attract great attention, we hear of a model of Plymouth Breakwater, executed with sur prising fidelity, and containing, among other things, the representation of a brig, two inches long, —the complete epitome of a vessel-of war. All the guns, masts, yards, rigging, &c., are giving, and even the running-gear is rove and the deck planked. There is only one other point which it is proper to touch upon in this part of the subject. It appears that the local com mittee of Sheffield, after attaining a pro-eminence aeiong all the towns in England for the dilatory and unsatisfactory manner in which they conducted their preparations for the Exhibition, set the finishing stroke to their conduct by sending in for the approval of the Executive Committee a plan for the arrangement of their goods, which it was quite impossible to accede to. The proposal to select the principal firm in their own town to represent the section of cutlery by a trophy in the centre of the nave awakened among them all the ores of local jealeesy. They had no objection to a London manufacturer, however small his business, occupying the post of honour; but that Rodgers should have it was not to be endured. Fortunate it is for the Commissioners by the thieves in their flight. Several witnesses were o,7.amined, wh , clearly identified the prisoners as the per-. song who had followed the prosecutor and committed the vio lence upon him. The jury found all the prisoners Guilty, and evidence was given to show that Piety had been before convicted of felony, and sentenced to ten years' transportation, and the other pri soners had also, it appeared, been convicted of felony. Mr. J.tmEs, in passing sentence upon the prisoners, re marked that their previous punishment did not appear to have produced any reformation, and he therefore felt it his duty to order Piety to be transported for life, and the other two prisoners for fifteen years each. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—York, March 21. CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Baron PLATT.) Henry Fordham (out on bail) was charged with em bezzling 2631., the property of Messrs. Tetley and Son, of Leeds. Mr. Overend for the prosecution, Mr. Temple and Mr. Seymour defended the prisoner. A letter was the only evidence to show that the prisoner was in the prosecutor's service, and this document being un stamped, His LounautP decided that it could not be received as evidence. The case for the prosecution broke down, and The jury, by the direction of his Lordship, returned a ♦er diet of Not Guilty. In the course of the day several caste were tried before Mr. Q.C., who sat for the trial of prisoners in the grand jury-room.

At the Devon Lent Assizes, which commenced on Wednesday in the Castle of Exeter, Chief Baron Pol lock took the Nisi Prius Court, and Baron Martin the Crown bar. After the delivery of the charge his Lord ship directed Robert Courtice Bird and Sarah Bird, his wife, to be placed at the bar. O❑ Mr. Slade and Mr. Cox coming into court the male prisoner entered into a short but earnest conversa tion with them, and during the proceedings the male prisoner paid great attention, and repeatedly conversed with his wife, as if informing her of the various points. After the Learned Judge commenced addressing them, she appeared much distressed. His Lordship, addressing Mr. Slade, said—l under stand you have something to say to the Court. Mr. Slade replied that he had not, as .neither himself nor Mr. Cox had been instructed. that they have deprecated so decisively the idea of arousing individual rivalries. It is obvious that however great the progress hitherto made, and however certain the prospect of all being ready by the lit of May, the time is now close at hand when the Executive Committee must begin to tighten the screw upon exhibitors, to gather up the ends of the great work entrusted to them, to get a stage clear of paint pots and men in paper caps before the curtain rises and the performance begins. The following is the substance of some very important resolutions which they have come to in order that the opening may take place, as announced by the Commis sioners. On the 2d of April the entrance into the building for carts and waggons is to be entirely closed, and the flooring still unlaid completed. No goods will be admitted after that date, except such as do not ex ceed six feet six inches in width. Between the 3d and the 10th of April everything brought into the building must be brought in unpacked; otherwise it will be put outside, and remaia there till this condition is complied with. After the 10th, and from then till the 20th any goods that come in, without special leave for the delay (this specialleave being granted only in rare cases), must pay a fine towards the funds of the Exhibition according to the following rates.—For every article weighing less than 281 b., 103.; for every article weighing more, 11. per 281 h After the 20th no goods can bo re ceived, except, perhaps, from foreign countries, under particular circumstances. These stringent resolutions, if resolutely carried out, will do more than anything else to make exhibitors wind up their preparations in good time. His Lordship then addressed the prisoners, saying that it was his duty to pass sentence upon them—the sentence of the Court for the offence wbicb, by law, must be passed upon them—but in so doing let it be under stood that he was exercising no discretion of his own, but merely carrying into effect the directions given by the Learned Commissioner who tried them at the last assizes; and therefore the sentence was that Learned Gentleman's, and not his own. His Lordship then ad verted to the circumstances of the first trial, and also that of the second, with the course taken by Mr Russell Gur ney at the time, and the prisoner's plea of autrefois acquit, or in other words that they had been tried and acquitted, and so, by the law of England, that no person could be twice perilled for the same offence. The Learned Com missioner who tried them had thought it right, under the circumstances, to direct a verdict to be recorded, against them, but reserved the point, under a recent Act, for the decision of the fifteen Judges. That opi nion, as all persons were aware, had been had, and a great diversity of opinion had existed between the Learned Judges, eight being in favour of it and six against it; and as he (the Learned Judge) formed one of the minority, it was necessary for bim to state that, whatever his opinion might have been, or was now, he was as much bound to submit to the decision of those eight Judges as though it were the decision of the House of Lords, it being obligatory on him to submit to the decision of the majority. They were, therefore, in accordance with that, called up for judgment. Al though they had not had, in the common sense of the word, an opportunity of making their defence, if they felt inclined to make affidavit on their own behalf, of the part they took in the circumstances of the case, he was not disposed to pass sentence on them, but forward them first to the Learned Commissioner who tried them, for his consideration. He did not wish them to make up their mind hastily, but he would give them half-an-hour to consider the matter. _ _ THE SAILORS' STRIKE AT LIVERPOOL, SITUR xAr.—The sailors m strike in this port still continue to pe rambulate the streets in procession. Last night there was a performance for their benefit at the Amphitheatre. The house was well filled. Last week the Mayor of Manchester intimated that they would not be allowed to g-) round and solicit subscriptions. On Thursday evening they visited Ashton, and held a public meeting in the evening, for which a charge of Id. or 2d. was made for admission, and the money thus gained was contributed to their maintenance. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. ROME ClRCUlT.—Maidstone, March 20. ClVElllTE.—(Berorethe LORD CHIEF JUSTIQE and a Special Jury.) BARTHOLOMEW V. GEORGE. _ _ Mr. Slade regretted ho had not been instructed, as then he should have asked fur the prisoners to have a trial. _ . This was an action brought by the plaintiff to re cover damages for the seduction of his daughter by the defendant. _ _ The Judge—Then I should have been obliged to have decided against you, and drive you to a writ of error. Mr. Slade—The expenses of which would hare been so great that the prisoners would not have been enabled to take advantage of it. Mr. Cox, having communicated with the prisoners, informed his Lordship that the prisoners would adopt his suggestion, and make the necessary affidavits. The counsel for the prosecution said that he must ask permission to see the alEdarits when made, and, if neces sary, answer them. The Judge said that could be done, but the affidavits must be so made and transmitted to Mr. R. Gurney, that he (the Learned Judge) might receive the answer by Monday. It was ultimately suggested and agreed that the Learned Judge should sentence the prisoners, and the affidavits be forwarded to the Secretary of State for a mitigation of the sentence. Ills Lordship then observed, that with regard to the case, he might take the opportunity of saying that it was the general opinion that everything that could be done in favour of the prisoners in arguing the case before the judges had been done for them, and this was also his opinion and that of the members of the Court. It appeared to be the opinion of the Learned Gentleman who had been engaged for them that the best course would be for him to sentence them, and for their affidavits to be forwarded to the Secretary of State, where they would receive every attention that was necessary. The Learned Judge then sentenced them to sixteen months' imprisonment, with hard labour. The sentence dates from the time of conviction, last August. Mr. Chambers and Mr. Addison were for the plaintiff; Sergeant Shee and Itlr. Bramwell for the defendant. Mr. CHAMBERS said the plaintiff in this case was a person in an humble position of life, being a post-boy at the Crown Hotel, Sevenoaks. The defendant was a respectable tradesman, carrying on the business of a butcher in the same town, and his conduct towards the plaintiff had this aggravation, that he was a man between fifty and sixty years of age, a widower, with a family of his own to protect, and that the victim of his lust suf fered under the distressing infliction of being deaf and dumb. The Learntd Counsel then briefly stated the facts of the case, atd the following evidence was ad duced:— _ Elizabeth Bartholomew, the daughter of the plaintiff, who was examined through the medium of a gentleman connected with the Deaf and Dumb Asylum in the New Kent-road, at which establishment, it appeared, the witness had been educated, was then called. Her evi dence was interpreted to the following effect. She said that' she livei with her father, two sisters, and two brothers, in a place called Brand's-lane, Ssernoaks, and the defendant kept a butcher's shop ClO3O by, and served them with meat. She was thirty one years old, and hid known the defendant for seven teen years, and about two years ego he made love to her, and she afterwards proved in the family way. He said this to her partly by signs and partly by words. She had taught the defendant the alphabet with her fingers, and he We; able to converse with her by signs, and to make her understand what he meant. She was delivered of a child in February, 1850, and the defendant was the father of that child. Ile used to come to her father's house and invite her to walk in a garden he had in Brand's-lane, and upon one occasion, while she was walking with him in the pulled her into a summer-house, and effected his he s object. When she found herself in the family way, she wrote two letters to the defendant informing him of the fact, and requesting him to do something for, and to make her his wife, as be had pro mised, but he did not answer either of the letters. By Sergeant SnEe—The defendant spoke a little, and made signs, and she understood him. Ho made signs to her "I love you," and he also made the sign for mar riage. Was quite sure that he promised her marriage, and he said be would marry her as soon as he could get rid of his housekeeper. She would sometimes go t the de fendant's shop for meat, but his hcusekeeper did netlike to see her Rauch. She was quite sure that Mr. George promised to marry her before the occurrence took place, but she never said anything to her father about his pro mise. He used to carne to the house to see her when he r father was out, and her father did not know of h is visits. She was then questioned as to whether she had not been on intimate terms with some young men whose names were mentioned, and whether the watchman did not find her in Brand's-lane at twelve o'clock at night with one of them, with his arm round her neck kissing her, and she said that she had known one of the yourg men a great many years, and that he had kissed her upon some occasions when they were at play toge ther; but she denied moat positively that there was any truth in the statement of her being discovered by the watchman in the situation described. In answer to other questions that wore put to the wit ness, she stated that two of her sisters were also deaf and dumb, and that one of her brothers was likewise partially afflicted in the same distressing manner. Sergeant SEEE, in his address to the jury, said that in cases of this description the defendant was always completely at the mercy of the witness who was called to make out the charge, and his only chance was to show the jury. by her cross-examination, that her evidence could not be relied upon. In the present instance, however, owing to the pe culiar and unusual manner in which the plaintiff's case was sought to be made out, the defendant was, to a great extent, deprived of this only ad vantage, for it was perfectly clear that it was impossible to subject the witness to anything approaching to a regular cross-examination, such as would be likely to bring out the real facts of the case. As to the charge of seduction, it appeared to him idle to say that there had been any such thing in this case, for it was evidently very difficult to make the witness understand an ordinary conver sation, and it was not very likely that the defendant should have been able to practise anyof those blandishments or sophistries, by which young women were sometimes se ducedfrom the paths of virtue. The defendant instructed him most positively to deny that he had ever had any in tercourse with this young woman, and when they had heard the evidence of the witness whom it would be his duty to call, he believed the jury would come to the conclusion that the birth of this child was the result of an intimacy with some other person, and not the defen dant ; a nd if this should bo so, the defendant would be entitled to their verdict. William Allen, a private watchman, was then called, and ho stated that at 12 o'clock one night, when he was on duty, he saw the plaintiff's daughter standing in Brand's-lane, with a young man, who had his arm round her neck, and he said that when he turned his light on them they walked away. He likewise stated that upon other cecasions he had seen the plaintiff's daughter with different young men. Mr. CnamilEsts having replied, The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE summed up, and the jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 501., in addition to 131., the expenses connected with the birth of the child.

MA RCII 22. (Before Mr. E. JAMES, Q•C•) In consequence of the ❑umber of criminai cases that were to be disposed of, it:was found necessary to open two other courts for the trial of prisoners during the greater part of the week, at which Mr. Sergeant Gaselee and Mr. James pre sided, and these learned gentlemen disposed of a great num ber of cases. But for this it would have been impossible to finish the business in time to open the commission on the day appointed fOr the county of Surrey. John Smith, 20, John Piety, 20, and George Ladizams, 20, wore indicted for a robbery with violence upon William Wheldon. Mr. Russell prosebuted, and Mr. Horne defended the pri soners. It appeared that upon the evening of the day named in the indictment the prosecutor was at a public-house in Maid stone, in company with a woman, and he was observed by the prisoners, who were also drinking there, to pull out a bag containing money; when he left they followed him, and when he came to a rather secluded part of the town they attacked the prosecutor, knocked him down, and while he was upon the ground jumped on him, and kicked him on the head and face, and otherwise seriously ill-used him. The prisoners than ran away, and when the prosecutor came to himself he found that he had been robbed of all the money that was in his pocket, and the bag which had contained it Ras picked up a 13119 gt bAyiDg btia 02191% •Ray VESSELS SPOKEN WITH.

Oatmeal has likewise moved off more freely on fully previous terms. With the exception of 1,773 quarters of malt coastwise and 2,278 loads of oatmeal from Ireland, the arrivals of English and Irish produce at Liverpool and Runcorn are this week extremely scanty ; and from abroad the imports are on a greatly reduced scale, the chief item being about 13, , 00 barrels of dour from the United States. At our market this morning a decidedly healthy tone was apparent, and wheat advanced 2d per 701 b. Flour was held firmly fcr an amendment of 6d to Is per sack. Oats must be noted a turn dearer, whilst oatmeal met a fair sale, and in some instances commanded 3d per load over the rates current on this day se'nnight. WAKEFIELD, MARCH 21. 7 —The arrivals this week are limited. There is but little fresh English wheat offering, for which there is a steady demand at an advance of is per qr. ; foreign and granaried samples are held at this enhancement, but are not taken so readily. Good samples of English barley command full prices, and ordinary descriptions do not meet with much attention. Oats are id per stone, and shelling 6d to is per load dearer. Beans as last stated. Old.

She was heavily laden, and had from 80 to 100 passengers, who had just finished dinner, and were mostly collected in the hall and on the forward guards at the time. She took fire after the explosion and burnt to the water's edge, and being in the channel and under way would have consumed all those on board but for the assistance of the Iroquois, which was wooding within a mile of the Oregon. Upon seeing the explosion Captain Lee, of the Iroquois, gave orders to go to the relief of the Oregon. But few minutes elapsed before she was alongside the Oregon. The flames bad just burst through the hurricane roof. Men, women, and children were collected together on the afterpart of the boat, without the means of getting away but by jumping into the river. The shrieks of the women, the frenzy of the men, ready to leap overboard to avoid the more horrible death by fire, and the groans of the scalded and dying, and the piteous lowing of the cattle, baffle description. Captain Lee ran the bow of of the Iroquois aft of the Oregon, and ladders being placed from the upper deck of the Oregon to the lower deck of the Iroquois, all on board the burning vessel, who were able to walk, got off, the Irolueis being all the time in great danger of taking fire. Captain Mont gomery was the last man to leave the wreck, which he did just as the Irequois was backing away. The parting of the boats caused the lad der to fall, and precipitated Captain Montgomery into the river, from which he was rescued, but with se veral bruises. The clerk's office was entirely blown away, together with the books and papers of the boat. George Brown, first clerk, was in the office at the time of the explosion, and was killed. The waiters in the cabin were at dinner, and all were killed except the steward. Eight white firemen were killed. It is im possible to give a correct idea of the loss of life, nothing having been left whereby to ascertain names. The floor of the Iroquois presented an awful sight. The Oregon was scuttled, but it proved useless, as the burning of the upper works caused her to rise faster than the boles could allow the introduction of water to sink her. The steamer Bulletin came up soon after the accident oc curred, and endeavoured to extinguish the flames by means of her engines, which, however, proved abortive. The passengers of the Bulletin afforded much aid, and remained aboard the Iroquois until they reached Mem phis, when the sufferers were taken to the hospital, many of them in the agonies of death. The Iroquois had on board 25 of the scalded, 11 of whom died before reaching Memphis.—New York Herald. THE GREAT EXHIBITION. We have noticed at different times the dissatisfaction which has been expressed by the representatives of some foreign countries with reference to the amount of space allotted to their exhibitors. Except in the case of France, these differences had almost entirely disappeared; but the commissioner of our continental neighbours—M. Sa landrouze de Lamornaix—continued still to struggle fur increased accommodation. Happily the ExecutiveCommit tea have been able to settle In an agreeable and friendly manner their differences with this gentleman, who will now direct all his energy to the preparation and arrange ment of the large area which his countrymen possess in the building. It appears that from two causes 12 bays have been placed at the disposal of the Executive Com mittee in the eastern or foreign half of the Exhibition. In the first place Norway and Sweden and the States of Northern Germany had not supplied a sufficient quantity of articles to cover their allotments. They therefore willingly resigned their surplus space. America, again, wished to exchange a portion of the ground area assigned her for increased room in the galleries. Her agent has acted, we understand, with great libe rality in the course of theme new arrangements, and hiss readily and cordially co-operated with the Execu tive Committee in securing a satisfactory settlement with our other visitors from abroad. All parties are now, we hear, perfectly well pleased with reference to the point of space; and it is sincerely to be hoped that no fresh disagreement may arise to destroy that spirit of harmo nious and combined action the establishment of which becomes every day of gae3 ter impertance.France,Belgium, Austria, and the Z , Alvercin have all been especially benefittod by the additional accommodation placed at the disposal of the Executive Committee, and we take it for granted that the difficulties arising from the disappointments of intending exhibitors whose contri butions, after inviting, we might be obliged to shut out, have now boon overcome. We have again, however, to warn our friends fr-m abroad the; their arrangements are still in a very back ward state, and that they must without delay put forth their best efforts to have every thing in order by the Ist of May. Their things come in slowly, and the Custom-house examinations neces sarily occupy a great deal of time. Besides M. du Seigneur's specimen of sculpture a splendid organ will be placed in the nave as one of the most striking articles in the French collection. This is the fourth organ we have heard of as intended for exhibition, and it is quite clear that the Crystal Palace may be made available for the pleasures of sound as well of sight, if the Royal Commis sioners think fit that it should be so. Over the vast expanse the sublime music of the Creation may be made to circu late, and while thousands of spectators assemble to ad mire the chief wonders of human industry the swelling notes may be sounded in their ears which so fitly recall the greatness of that Power by whom are all things. The American contributions brought over by the packet St. Lawrence are now rapidly arriving at the building, and although the quantity is not so great as was at one time expected, the quality will, it is believed, be not unwworthy of the great nation which acknowledges this to be its mother country. The colhction includes splendid specimens of copper, iron, and zinc ore, to illustrate the mineral we ilth of the United States; machinery to show the me chanical ingenuity of the people; and a most varied dis play of raw produce and manufactured articles, in cluding an air-exhausted metal coffin, in which a human body could, it is said, be preserved for ages without decay, and which contains, we hear, a bouquet of flowers as fresh as when it was first placed there. The Commissioner from Tunis has been the first foreign agent to unpack. Judging from what we saw, this small section of the Exhibition will not be the least interesting portion of it ; and the fair sex especially will flock to a compartment where they may have an opportunity cf comparing their own style of apparel with that of the Moorish ladies. Among the entries in the catalogue of articles which the Bey has sent over is oleo which runs thus, " The beauty's dress on leaving the bath." The display is rich in specimens of male attire, also in mule trappings blankets, and stilettos. Turning to our own part of the Exhibition, there are several matters of importance to communicate since our last notice. With reference to the amount of work to be accomplished before the Ist of May, it now appears certain that the chief difficulty to be overcome lies in the completion of the building itself. As if the arrears of work already existing were not sufficient, new labours arise of a serious, but, we trust, not insurmountable character. The ridge and valley roof during wet weather has always leaked a little at different points, but it was believed that when the Paxton gutters had been well pitched and the interior of the sash bars painted no inconvenience on this score could be experienced. The late heavy rains have dissipated this idea, and water has penetrated in so many places that serious fears are entertained by some as to the practtcabilty of securing that exemption from drip or damp which is indispeusable iu such a building. We believe that the desired objected can still be accom plished by administering a thick coat of paint to the sash bars on the outside; but this constitutes a formidable addi tion to the work which the contractors have now scarcely six weeks to finish. Messrs. Fox and Henderson have done wonders, and we have no doubt will complete this great undertaking in a manner creditable to them selves, to their profession, and to their country. Their reputation is indissolubly bound up with the satisfactory manner in which the Crystal Palace fulfils the objects for which it has been created. If its gigantic roof cannot be made water-tight, Mr. Paxton's design, and their execution, will be equally con demned as failures. Not only so, but we shonld be ex posed as a people, to just complaint from the countries whose industrial products we have invited to an imper feet shelter from our damp and showery skies. Fancy the exhibitor of costly brocaded silks from Lyons, or of rich velvets from Genoa, watching the effects of a summer storm of rain oozing through the great window frames above his head, and drop after drop irretriev ably tarnishing the rarest products of his taste and skill. The contractors and the Executive Committee are both fully alive to the necessity of curing this defect, and accordingly during Friday and Saturday the glass roof of the building has been in possession of gan gs of painters and glaziere, who, ctarying their scaffolding about with them, and apparently like flies, without spe cific gravity, crawl about in every direction, stopping up chinks and crevices with putty and paint, and repairing fractured panes of glass, When in addition to this pre caution the calio covering has bees' got up, the wind will be prevented from driving the rain with such force I through guy seams that way still remain open. 61 Os ; Span;sh 0/ per ton.

A telegraphic message is now P di ' 8 oys ters from London to Southampton, and any quantity formerof can, in four or five hours afterwards, be received in the steri from the latter place by rail.

A slip is about t a,_ built on purpose to land and open them. The YL et°L will be in operation ill the y ear round, and ".Y. short l y between thirty and forty vessels w ill be ei' ployed in it. A large number of persons are employed n,' parking, landing, and opening the oysters. The railisql waggons which take them to London are brought down by a tramway close to where they are landed. These oysters are caught near th e Channel Islands, and as soon as a bbip load a is caught they are sent to Southampton. They are there thrown on the oyster grounds, and at low water tbei are placed in rows several layers thick, with spaces between d ' • This is called parking t hem.
