HER MAJESTY'S STEAM SLOOP SPHYNX. Baoox, IsLE or Wpairr, JAN. 25.—The Sphynx remains in the same position as when last mentioned, hut it was much feared, when the foul winds Fet in yesterday, that she would not have withstood the force of both elements; how ever, she has, being a new ship. Lieutenant Marryat succeeded yesterday morning, at low water, in floating ashore some few casks of provisions from the wreck ; the wind blowing hard from the south and south-west, they could not communicate during the day, nor this morning. The vessel has not altered her position, and is tu ite upright, not making much water. Not having been pumped - out for some days, she has some feet of water in her hold. All the dyad lights abaft have been berthed in; the hatchways have been covered in, and every other precaution taken to prevent her tilling when the sea flows over her. Chain cables are about to be got out to keep her bow out to seaward, as at present. She is going to be lightened by " camels," upon a plan of Mr. Watts, the assistant master shipwright of Portsmouth Dockyard. Captain Austen, R.N., of Woolwich, and Mr. Murray, chief engineer of Portsmouth, arrived yesterday, and the crew of the Sphynx are employed to-day constructing a raft to dis embark stores ; should the weather (at present very violent) moderate, and the wind come to the northward, there is yet a hope of having her afloat next spring tides (about the3lst); at least of saving the engine gear. Mrs. Craggs is improving in health daily, and will soon be pronounced out of danger. No other casualties have since occurred. The crew are well, comfortably lodged, and behave very orderly. The Scourge steam-sloop, Commander Caffin, has em barked some Portland surge-boats, for use at the wreck of the Sphynx, with which she is hourly expected here. We believe that Commander Caffin, a most experienced and scientific officer, is of opinion that the Sphynx may yet be floated, and we are informed, will direct his energies, in conjunction with the other distinguished officers at the spot, towards so desirable an end immediately the tides and weather will permit. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, JAW. 26.—The Belleisle, troop-ship, Captain J. Kingcome, came into the harbour last night at sunset, and the troops she brought (the 71st Highlanders) were dis embarked to-day by the men-of-war's boats at Clarence yard, whence they marched to the railway terminus, and departed by railway for Winchester. The Baretto Junior transport, Lieut. Griffiths agent, sailed this morning for the River. The African steam-tug, Mr. John King, acting master commanding, sailed this morning for Sheerness. The Scourge steam-sloop, Commander J. C. Caffin, which was supposed to have sailed for Bristol en Friday, returned this afternoon to Spithead. The Sphynx remains nearly in statu quo, the late gales having failed to do her any injury. In fact the reef of rocks over which she ran when she got on shore act as a sort of breakwater to the sea during the pre sent neap-tides. How far their preservative powers may stretch, in case of a very ,high spring succeeding, with strong southerly or westerly winds, remains to be seen. At all events she is but little injured at present. The system of arming the dockyard artizans to assist in the protection of the port, in case of necessity has been pro mulgated in port this week, an invitation to the men on the establishment to volunteer their services having been sent, and a return made on Monday. Those who are only hired, are ordered to attend drill, and any who hereafter enter the yard establishment will do so with that condition annexed. Drill is to commence in April, and be continued twice a week for one hour. Time to be paid for as extra time in the yard. Inspection twice a year. The Rattler steam (screw) sloop, Commander Moorman, came into harbour this afternoon to have her defects re paired. The Prince Regent, 120, is being rapidly completed as two-decker of 90 guns. Men in large numbers are actively employed upon her. The Echo steam-tug broke down yesterday, and was obliged to return to harbour after starting for the Isle of Wight. She is being repaired and will be ready for service again to-morrow night. - The Fanny tender came up las' night from the wreck of the Sphynx with a favourable report of her condition. WOOLWICH, JAN. 26.—The Fairy steam-vessel, tender to the Royal Victoria and Albert steam yacht, under the charge of Second Master George H. Forster, had her steam up to day, proceeded from Woolwich to Blackwall, and returned to her moorings opposite the Dockyard. The Odin steam-frigate, of similar dimensions as the Sidon steam-frigate, only immersed to a greater degree in the water, went down the river this morning to try her en gines and speed. _ _ _ The Centaur is now loaded at Deptford with rice and meal, and will leave to-morrow to have her compasses adjusted at Gre , :nhithe, and then proceed to the west coast of Scotland with a supply of provision ftr the poorer inhabitants of the Hebrides. THE LATE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) The train which was the cause of the unfortunate occur rence was, it appears, the express up train, which left Exeter at noon on Monday, and was runni ng a t i ts usual speed by the station at Southall, and the same moment the four o'clock down train was slacking its speed previously to its stopping at that place. The express train had passed the station some fifty yards, and the four o'clock down train was about 200 or 250 yards also on the London side, when the tire of the driving-wheel next to the down rail broke into several pieces, which were projected in different directions with a terrible velocity. One portion of about four feet in length was thrown to a considerable height, and in its descent came longitudinally on the front of the second-class carriage, next the luggage van of the down train, forcing away a small portion of the front end, as well as a longitudinal slip of the top, and making a clear breach into the carriage itself. So great was the force with which it fell, that the three first compartments of the carriage were broken the one into the other. The second and third compartments were filled with pas sengers. Of those in the second compartment, two labour ing men, who were sitting opposite each other, were killed. The portion of the tire fell on their heads, and their deaths were instantaneous. A female, who was in the same com partment, was also struck on the head, and is stated to be in a dangerous condition. A severe injury, and from a similar cause, happened to Mrs. Mountjoy Martin, who was a passenger by the express train. This lady was sitting, with her back to the engine, close to the window next to the down line, and is supposed to have been struck a violent blow on the hip, either by a small portion of the tire break ing through the hinder part of the carriage, or by a splinter of the latter. A medical gentleman, Mr. Daniel, of Southall, who was in the down train, rendered every possible assist ance to the female who was injured in the down train, who was instantly removed to a public-house adjacent. Mrs. Martin was brought to Paddington by the express train, and Dr. Locock immediately sent for. The engine (the Queen) attached to the express train and which has a seven feet driving wheel, with f rames inside the wheels, brought the train on to Paddington, where it arrived about a quarter aan hour after its time. Another portion of the tire fell on the down rail, and threw the engine attached to the down train off the line. She was, however, soon got on again, and the damaged second-class carriage having been re moved to the goods shed adjoining, the train proceeded on its journey. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.

Barley has been the most seriously affected- In Chelmsford market the fall in this article was at least ss . per quarter on the prices obtained the previous week, a n d even at the decline but few sales could be effected. The nominal fall in wheat was 25., but the quantity brought to market, and the little business done, gave indications of a much heavier depreciation. At Colchester the effect was similar, and also at Stowmarket, Stortford, and other mar kets in Suffolk and Herts, held since the measures were fully explained in Parliament. It is a little singular, that in n2arly all these markets there was a rise of 3s. or 4s. per q tarter in oats.

THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 28, 1847. was executed to assess the damages, which damages were laid at 2001. The plaintiff, whose case was conducted by his attorney, had resided at Birmingham, and cccasionally slept at a beer shop, about two miles from his own residence. The defend ant is an Italian, travelling about with a hurdvgurdy, and the cause of action was alleged to have occurred about four years ago. The defendant had been thrashed by the plain tiff for his alleged criminal con versat i on, an d a b out two months back had been served with process in the present action. Some witnesses were called, and it appeared that in 1843 the defendant played the hurdygurdy in the plaintiffs house, and dancing took place in the kitchen. The plaintiff's attorney, in stating his case, claimed a reasonable compensation for the injury sustained, and as he was going to the House of Lords for a divorce, their Lordships would consider the amount the jury had awarded. Mr. MILLER, on the part of the defendant, stated that he unfortunately bad not pleaded to the action, or he could have satisfied the jury that he was not the party liable ; he was, in fact, a poor Italian, travelling about with a hurdy gurdy, and the plaintiff, who had committed an assault upon him four years ago, now sued him for damages to enable him to get a divorce from his wife, 110 doubt wishing to marry another woman. The jury would consider the loss the plaintiff had sustained, and he confidently anti cipated that they would consider that one farthing was more than compensation for the injury committed on his character and feelings. The Learned UNDER. SHERIFF told the jury, the defen dant by not pleading had admitted that he was the party liable to damages, and they would, therefore, pay no atten tion to what his learned counsel had stated as to his inno cence of the charge imputed to him. The question for them was, the amount of damages to which the plaintiff was en titled. It would have been more prudent for the plaintiff not to have left his home and have slept at a beer-shop, and lit considering their damages they would take into account how far he had been a party thereby to his own dishonour. The defendant was said to be an outcast, a poor foreigner ; but if he had injured the plaintiff the latter had a right to claim compensation at the hands of the jury. Th e j u ry would also take into consideration that the action was not brought for three or four years after the occurrence, and with respect to the statement about the intention of the plaintiff to go to the House of Lords for a divorce, they (the jury) had nothing to do with the matter. They had to assess the amount of damages to which the plaintiff was entitled for the injury complained of, which injury defendant by not plead ing had admitted he had committed. The jury assessed the damages at " One farthing." STANDING ORDERS COMMITTEE. The following Resolutions were reported from the above Committee : 1. That in the case of the Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Railway petition, the standing orders ought to be dispensed with :—That the parties be permitted to proceed with their Bill, on giving the notices in the newspapers for three suc cessive weeks, in the counties of Berks and Southampton: 2.

ROLLS' COURT, Jun. 27. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE IRONMONGERS' COMPANY This was a petition, praying for the payment of the cost of certain advertisements which had been incurred by the petitioner. It appeared that a charity of 150,0001., which had been left for the purpose of ransoming British captives in Turkey and Barbary, had by a decree of the Court been diverted into the maintaining of certain schools in this country. The petitioner advertised the existence of this charity, and demanded the payment of the expenses of the same, which was resisted by the defendants, who are trustees of the charity. Mr. Cooper appeared in support of the petition, Mr. Wray for the Attorney-General, and Mr. Kindersley for the Ironmongers' Company. The case concluded to-day, but his Lordship deferred judgment to afford the parties an opportunity for arrange. ment, and directed the matter to be mentioned on Saturday next. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Jan. 27 THE QUEEN ON THE PROSECUTION OF THE MEDWAY NAVIGA TION COMPANY V. THE SOUTII-EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. In this case a mandamus had been issued by this Court, at the instance of the Medway Navigation Company, directing the South-Eastern Company forthwith to cause their engi neer, or other agent, to inspect or examine a certain locomo tive steam-engine belonging to the Medway Company, which at the time the mandamus was issued was on a siding of the railway near Tonbridge, and to report thereon to the railway company, and to give, within seven days after such report, to the Medway Company a certificate of approval of such engine, pursuant to the provisions of the Act under which the railway was constructed. It ap peared by this Act that no locomotive, or other engine, or other description of moving power, should at any time be brought upon, or used on the line, unless it should have been approved of by the company, and they were required, within 14 days after notice to them, by any person de sirous of bringing any engine en the railway, to cause their engineer or other agent to inspect and examine such engine, at any place within five miles of the railway, and to report thereon to the company ; and that they, within seven days, in case the engine should be fit and proper to be used, should give a certificate to the party of their approval. In their return to the writ the South. Eastern Company simply set forth that, on the passing of the Maidstone branch, the Medway Company obtained power to construct sidings, communicating with the main lines of the branch, for the conveyance of their goods or minerals to the main line, and that such locomotive power as the South- Eastern possessed should be used far the conveyance of these goods and minerals at the usual rates along their line, and that they had incurred great expense, and afforded every convenience to the Medway Company for this purpose. The Medway Company demurred to this return, on the ground of insufficiency in law, and that the right of having their goods so carried did not destroy the right of the Medway Company to have a certificate of approval of the engine in question. The case now came on for argument in the usual form. Mr. ALEXANDBR had been heard at great length on behalf of the railway company. He contended that the return was sufficient, and that the allegations in the mandamus were not maintainable, inasmuch as they were too large and general. Mr. M. CHAMBERS was now heard in support of the writ. He said as the return did not state that the engine was an unfit one, it followed that they must assume that it was a proper engine, and that it was incumbent upon the rail way company to direct their engineer to furnish them with a certificate of the fitness of the engine, and that the Medway Company should be furnished by the railway com pany with a certificate of approval. The 153 d section of their Act, the one out of which the proceedings arose, dis tinctly enacted that the company should grant a certi• ficate of approval if the engine was found to be a fit and proper one. The approval of the company was required in order that they might be prevented from solely depending upon their engineer, and from his supplying them, either through carelessness or design, with a false or capricious report. He admitted that the engineer was a proper person to make such a report, and that the company would be per fectly justified in saying, if he presented an unfavourable report, that the engine should not run on their line. It was established as a fact that the engine in this case was a fit and proper one, and that the Medway Company had adopted the proper course, in order to run it on the line. In accord ance with the terms of the Act, the public might run an en gine over the line,! provided :it was a fit one. The legal construction of the Act, he contended, wai that all parties should not only have the power of running carriages, but locomotives along a railway—in point of fact, using the railway as a public highway. The mandamus could not be too large or general, inasmuch as both the engineer's report and the approval of the company must be obtained. Then again, the word "approved" did not mean that an engine might be rejected on frivolous grounds. If the engineer sent in a report stating that the engine was unfit, whilst the contrary was the case, the company was bound to give the required certificate of approval, as the Act did not make them entirely dependent upon the engineer, whose opinion might be biassed. Lord Derimax said the Court could not help saying that the Act made a very imperfect provision for inquiring into the capacity of an engine. Some other officer than the en gineer should have been named, but the Court could not construct a new Act to meet this particular case. The man damus should have directed a report. If a company refused to do that which the Act required, an action would lie for maliciously refusing to perform the conditions the Act re quired. Mr. Justice P.ATTESON said the Act foolishly enacted that engines and carriages might be run on certain condi tions, but it was merely inferential, as it did not say that they might be run. Mr. CHAMBERS held that all railways were nothing but public highways, on which carriages of a certain description might be run on certain conditions, and if he established this right, the public might run locomotives along such lines with as much right as they now took a horse at tached to a carriage along a common road. In the case of the King v. The Severn and Wye (2d Barnewell and Alder son) Chief Justice Holroyd stated distinctly that a rail way was nothing more nor less than a public highway, and that persons using a certain mode of a carriage might use it en paying toll. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE said he had no doubt that a railway was a highway under certain restrictions. Mr. Justice PArrEsore said, by the 128th section the com pany was empowered to provide locomotive power and car riages, but they were not commanded. In a case reported in ex-parte Dowling's cases, a mandamus was applied for to compel a railway company to convey the goods of a carrier along their line, as this Act did not compel them to carry all goods. The application was refused. The ques tion 'eras an important one, as all railway Acts were simi larly worded. He submitted that his clients had a right to run their engine on the line, and hoped the Court would compel the company to allow it to be run, without driving them to try their right of action. Lord Die.:!cur said all railways were public roads, as the Acts under which they were constructed gave the public certain rights over them, but it did not follow that all consequences which attached to public roads must attach to railways. One of these consequences would be that any one of the public might run any carriages he pleased. He thought it would be very alarming to hold out t h at any person might bring an engine and work it over a line at his own pleasure. Now the Act he thought had provided a proper security against the results, - which might ensue by the improper use of such a power— namely, the certificate of the engineer and the approval of the company. The mandamus called upon the company to grant their certificate and their approval before the engineer had granted his, in opposition to the spirit of the Act ; there fore the writ which called upon him to grant his certificate that the engine was' a fit and proper one, without his having examined it, was clearly bad. Mr. Justice PAItESON and the other Judges agreed with the Chief Justice, and that the mandamus as it stood was too large. The mandamus was accordingly discharged. BAIL COURT, Jan. 27. BANKES V. NEWrON. Mr. Justice Erie proceeded to g ive judgment in this case this morning. The facts of the case were, that Mr. Newton, a barrister, had beecme indebted to Mr. Bankes in the sum of 41. for groceries, and in consequence of the non-payment of the money Mr. Bankes sued Mr. Newton in the Sheriffs' Court, and obtained a verdict in his favour. Mr. Newton after wards applied for a rule nisi for a new trial, on the ground that the clerk of the plaintiff's attorney had, during the absence of Mr. Newton, represented the cause as undefended, and consequently the cause was taken, and a verdict obtained. He also applied on the ground that there was a competent court to dispose of debts under 51. in the district in which he (Mr. Newton) resided, at Wandsworth. On these grounds the rule was granted. Mr. Hoggins yesterday showed cause against the rule. He urged, that when the debt was contracted the defendant's offices were in Manchester-buildings, while his house was at Wandsworth. Neither had he objected when the writ was served, Mr. Justice ERLE, in giving judgment, remarked, that after what had been shown on the other side, it appeared to him that the two grounds on which the rule had been ob tained did not materially bear upon the case, and, therefore, under all the circumstances, the Court thought it better to discharge the rule. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Jan. 27. TIIE EAST INDIA STEAM-SHIP COMPANY.-SCOTI AND ANOTHER V. BERKELEY. Mr. GREENWOOD appeared in this case, which was part heard, ih 'support of the plaintiff's right to recover the sum of 21,600/. from the Hon. Craven Berkeley, M.P., as a direc tor of the East India Steam-ship Company, now defunct. The action was brought by Messrs. Scott, Sinclair and Co., the extensive ship-builders of Greenock, to recover the sum named as the balance of an account due for building a steamer for the said company. The proceedings which were taken resulted in j adgment being signed against the defendant. Before execution was issued objection was taken as to the liability of the defendant, and after some discussion it was mutually agreed to turn the matter into a special case for the opinion of the C our t, as t o whether, in September, 18 4 3, when judgment was signed, the defendant was a member or director of the company. All the arguments adduced, which were entirely of a tech. nical and legal character, were directed to this matter. The COURT decided the point in favour of the defendant. The other cases argued were demurrers of no interest ex cept to the parties concerned. SECONDARIES' COURT, Jan. 27. ESDAILE AND OTHERS V. MTH. This was an action brought to recover the sum of 51,3881. on a guarantee. The defendant suffered judgment to go by default. The plaintiffs are bankers, and it was understood the de fendant is a gentleman at York, but it did not transpire either in the address to the jury, or in the course of the evidence, in whose behalf or on what ground the guarantee was given, but it appeared that 28,6661. odd was upon overdue bills of exchange and interest, and the remainder the balance of a banking account, and twelve months' interest at five per cent, Mr. Walls, a clerk to Messrs. Roy, the plaintiff's solici tor was called to prove the calculation of the interest, and also that the defendant had admitted the correctness of the account. The Learned SECONDARY asked in what manner the ad mission was made. The witness said he had gone through the account with Mr. Bond, of York, the defendant's attorney, who had signed the admission. The bills and admission were then put in, but not read or handed to the jury. The Learned SECONDARY said the defendant did not appear, but there did not seem to be any reason to doubt the correct ness of the claim. The jury gave a verdict for the full amount claimed. The remainder of the morning was occupied in hearing a case for work done, but which was not of the slightest interest. SHERIFFS' COURT, Jan. 26. (Before Mr. Under-Sberiff Buncuu.L. ) STOCKER V. SPINETTO. The plaintiff sought compensation in damages against the defendant for criminal conversation with his wife. Judg- Melit Yr" " I ' 4 to go by defaults and a writ of inquiry MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. William Smith alias Long was indicted for stealing a hand kerchief, the property of William Capol. It appeared that the prisoner was o b serve d b y a cons t a bl e of the division, named West, to whom he was k nown as a thief, to pass long Pickett-street, Strand, with a black handkerchief round his neck, and in about half an hour afterwards return with one of a different colour, and of a far more valuable description. He then took him into custody, and upon inquiries found that the prosecutor, who resided at Hammond's Hotel, had had hi 9 pocket picked while,pass ing through the Strand. Mr. Capol identified the handkerchief, and Mr. PAYNE, who appeared on behalf of the prisoner, called a witness as to character, but his evidence appeared to the Assistant-Judge of such a contradictory nature that he ordered him to leave the witness-box with a reprimand. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and several previous convictions having been recorded against the prisoner, he was sentenced to ten years' transportation. The next prisoner, who bore the. same popular cognomen, was indicted for stealing a pair of boots, the property of Thomas Steel. The prisoner was observed by the prosecutor to snatch a pair of boots, which hung near the shop-door, from a peg, and run off with them. A verdict of Guilty was returned, and the Learned As- SISTANT-JUDGE sentenced the prisoner to three months' im prisonment with hard labour. George Henry Salmon was indicted for stealing a picture, the property of Richard Lancaster Swallow. The policeman who had the conduct of the case produced the picture in court, the subject of which was the "Country Justice: fr The treatment of it was original in the extreme, and indicated in the artist's mind no very high ideal of worshipful grace or beauty. It was taken up and scanned by a very full bench of county magistrates with an apparent curiosity, which, by some, perhaps, very remote analogy, caused a titter in the body of the court. The prosecutor was the proprietor of a public-house in Stepney, called the York Minster, in which the 131isotter was seen on the morning of last Sunday week. On Monday the painting was missed, and the police succeeded in tracing it to a person who became possessed of it by purchasing the duplicate from the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. James Black, and his, wife Jane Black, were indicted for stealing bed clothes from their ready furnished lodging, under circumstances which showed that it was sheer dis tress which induced them to do so. _ A verdict of Guilty was returned against James Black, and of Acquittal in favour of his wife, who entreated in piteous terms when the Learned Assistant-Judge was about to pronounce sentence upon her husband, that " it might be divided amongst the two." He was sentenced to a month's imprisonment. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS, LIVERPOOL, JANUARY 26.
