RAILWAY IN TELLIGENCE. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN. The idirectors of this company have issued a re port to' the shareholdera on the subject of the Man chester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Company's breach of their agreement. It .statps that in 1854, when the Sheffield Company were in great peen, niary difficulties, their directors induced the Lon don and North-Western Company to enter - into a •general traffic agreement with thein, delerininable only upon seven years' notice ; that the known and intended pecuniary operation of that agreement was very decidedly in favour of the Sheffield com pany for the earlier years ; and that agreemeent has been acted upon until now, the Sheffield Com pany receiving under.it large amounts half-yearly in aid of their dividends ; and that when the ex pected. change in the pecuniary operation of the agreement appeared tobe at band, the Sheffield Com pany have declared it altogether and at once at an • end, without any previous notice, and without appealing to the arbittatien provided - for by it. The report alsO states that the alleged grievances and pretended negotiatiees on account of which the Sheffield directors say they adopted this co . tu-se, and the utter absence of foundation for any such allegations, will appear in the correspondence; minutes, and resolutions of the board, which are appended to the report. That 'it will further be. seen by. these documenta that the Sheffield Company have not ventured to avail themselves of their power to have their charges and pretended grievances referred to either of the impartial arbi trators to whom they were bound to leave all dis putes which might arise betweenthe cfanpanies as to the letter or spirit of the agreement. The London and North-Western directors indignantly deny all the charges against them, declaring that they have from first to last most fully and honourably, and in a liberal spirit, performed the agreement on their part. The report concludei with the follow ing observations :—" There is not the slightest pre tence for• 'saying that any sum of money ever was due to the Sheffield Company under the agreement, beyond that actually paid to them. The oh trges now brought against the London and North-Wes tern Company of illiberal conduct in withelding traffic and in deducting 50 per cent. on the deficiency are contradicted by the repea,fed pub lic declarations of Mr. Chapman, or the Shef field Company as evidenced by extrac's from the reports of the Sheffield board and, the proceedings at the general m-etings of their pro prietors. But if either in this respect or in any other, they rea'ly believed that the agreement had at all been infringed, they were bound to avail themselves of their undoubted right of arbitration under it. The conduct of the Sheffield directors and the entanglement and competi.ion which must, for a time at least, follow, cannot but be matter of re gret to your directors, in common with all interested in railway property. Your directors, however, con fidently believe that, by a temperate but firm main tenance of your just right they will be enabled to protect the traffic of this company against any seri ous injury from those causes ; and the directors rely upon the cordial and united support of the proprietors in such measures as may be necessary under the circumstances in which they are so uu exp-.,ctecily placed." MANCHESTER, SHEETIELD, AND LIN- COLNS HIRE. The half-yearly report of the directors of this company has just lacen issued. It states that the accounts of the half-year show a total revenue of 291,0811. earned, in connexion with the railways and elnals, a total expenditure of 141,7341., and a balance of net profits of 149,3451., wldch, with the balance of 4,5001. from the previous half-year, gives a total sum of 153,8471. available for interest and dividend. The debenture and other interest charges against the half-year amount to 63,5101., the canal annuities to 13,7341., the dividend on de benture stock to 2501., on the preference shares to 23,6151., on the 3f per cent. stock to 5,9581., and on the 6 per cent. preference stock to 26,1601., Making a total preference charge of 133,2991., and leaving 20,5471. availaVe for dividend on the ordi nary stock of the company. The directors recom mend a dividend of 10s. per 1001. on the ordinary stock, or at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum, leaving a balance of 1,046/. The receipts for passen ger tratlic show an increase of 4,6151 over those of the corresponding half of last, sear. ,The increase in the goods traffic amounted to 16,5131., and in the mineral traffic to 3,983/. There has been a de crease of 4981. in the receipts for parcels, &e., and of 981. in live stock. The receipts for dues, wharf age, km., at Grimsby Docks amounted to 2,618/ , against 2,1581. in the first half of 1856, showing an increase of 4601. • Under the agreement with the Great Northern traffic between Manchester and places west of Man chester will be worked continuously to and from London on and after the Ist of August next. The net profit of the year ending the 30th of June, 1853, was 175,084/. ; and that of the year just ended, 300,6451., showing an increase of 125,5611. in the course of four years. The total expendi ture on capital account amounts to 8,841,0161, TRA.FFIC RETURNS FOR THE WEEK. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-July HOUSE OF LORDS. THE SHREWSBURY PEERAGE. The documentary evidence in this case was con tinned. Lord Belhaven* was the only viva.'voce witness, and his evidence went to show that he was told by the family of John , sixtenith earl, that Earl Ber tram, the last earl, would keep out the protestant branch of the family. • The fiiriher proceedings were then adjourned to Monday week. . EQUITY COURTS. (Before Viee-Chancellor Sir W. Page Wood.) HOLMES V. EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. This suit was instituted by Messrs. Smith and Co., news agentr, and the object of it was to obtain certain declarations and relief, by way of injunc tion, restraining the defendants from removing the book-stalls occupied by the plaintiffs at the various stations of the Eastern Counties Railway. In February, 1856, plaintiffs entered into an agree rifent with the defendants, whereby they we; e to ha-Ve the exclusive right of selling newspapers, pe riodicals; pamphlets, • and other publications, they paying to the company arent of 1,5001. a year for the first five_ years,. and 2,000/. a year -for the ensuing five years, the parcels of the plaintiffs being con veyed free of charge. The plaict'ffscomplained that their book-stall at the Bishopsgate station had been removed, so as not to be accessible to the passen gers waiting for the departing trains, which it was when tile agreement was made, and they likewise complained of being obatTueted in putting up a book-stall at Bishop Stortford. number of affida vits were read, and it appeared that the plaintiffs had complained that the company charged the news agents who lived at the towns on the line too small a sum for the carriage of their parcels, and had requested them to charge a higher sum in order that the plaintiffs might be protected against those country news agents who entered into competition with them, though they were not allowed to sell newspapers inside the stations, and the company bad complied with that request. The defendants, in their turn, complained that the plaintiffs had abused their right of sending parcels free by in closing in them books which were not intended to he sold to passengers by the railway, but had been ordered by biolisellt rs and otters living on the line. The Vice-Chaneellir held that the plaintiffs were not entitled ,to enclose in their plr.rels anything. but books and newspapers intended to be sold by them on the railway, and he granted an injunction to rastiain the defendants from removing the book stall at Bishopsgate, or any other. station, from their position at the time of the agreement was entered into. INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner Murphy.) IN RE EDWARD RAWSON CLARK. In this case an application was made to issue execution on the warrant of attorney executed at the time of the discharge, in 1831, on the ground that Mr. Clark (who was connected with the turf) possessed c)nsiderable property, and was of ability" t) lay his debts. Mr. Red showed cause, and Mr. Sargood moved to make the rule absolute. An application was made by Mr. Reed for a proof of debts. Some creditors had been paid, and a release had been executed by others. • Mr. Clark was ready to pay into court any sum that might be fonnd due. Mr. Sargooi said the debts in the schedule were 1411., and should be paid into court. 'Mr. Clark, in an affidavit in this court i❑ the case of Mr. Howard, said he was worth 12,0001. over 11;s debts, and on examination said 90,0001. was the amount Of his property. Mr. Commissioner Miirphy made the rule abso into, being of opinion that Mr. Clark was of "ability" to pay, as set forth by the act. Mr. Reed asked for a week's time, as Mr. Clark was out of town. The learned Commissioner slw no reason to grant any delay. Mr. Clark was no doubt at the Liver po4)l races, and the telegraph would reach him. The rule to enforce the warrant of attorney was ina'de absolute. BUCKINGHAM PALACE, JULY 15. This day had audience of the Q 110311: Her Majesty the Queen of the Nether'sands.

The prize, one of the most magni ficent ever offered, from the manufactory of Benson, was worthy of a great contest; but the Undine took the lead soon after the start, and never gave any other a chance of success ; thus depriving the race of the interest it would otherwise have possessed. Thfl attendance of company on board the club blearier, the Oread, was very large ; and the captain (Wheeler) and officers of the club vied with each other in rew!ering the visitors happy.

JOHN CUTTS AND ROBERT EZEKIEL SMITH. This was an indictment removed from the crown side of the court by certiorari, which charged the di-fendant.4, under the statute of the 12th and 13th Victoria, commonly known as the Bishop of Oxford's Act, with having conspired together, and by false pretences induced one Martha Augusta Hills, a girl under the age of 21 years, to have illicit carnal connection with the defendant, Robert Ezekiel Smith. Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Mr. Lush, Q.C., and Mr. T. Chambers, appeared for the prosecution ; Sergeant Shee and Mr. Woollett defended Mr. Cutts . ; and Mr. Prentice was counsel for the other defendant. This case stood over fromthe spring assizes, upon a►n application made on behalf of the prosecution that Martha Augusta Hills, the principal witness, was expected to be brought to bed every hour, and was consequently unable to attend and give evi dence. Mr. M. Chambers, in opening the case for the prosecution, said that the circumstances under which the charge was preferred were of a very pe culiar character. The defendant, Mr. Cutts, had fur a great many years carried on the profession of an attorney in the county of Essex, and was a man of considerable wealth, residing at Little Bardfied Hall, and Mr. Smith, the other defendant, was a farmer at Finchingfield, and also reported to be a wealthy man. It appeared that in 1854, Mr. Hills, the prosecutor, took a small farm near Mr. Smith. Ho Lad a daughter named Martha Augusta, who was at that time 16 years old, and a girl possessed of very considerable personal attractions, and she speedily attracted the attention of Mr. Smith, who was very much older than the young lady, and he went to her father's house, and expressed a desire to become acquainted with the family ; and be ul timately made the young lady a promise of mar riage, and was received in the family as her acknow ledged suitor, and it was arranged that the mar riage should take place from his house. The young lady, under these circumstances, used to go to Smith's occasionally, and in 1855 he succeeded in seducing her. andshe subsequently gave birth to a child. It appeared that Miss Hills, during tbeyear 1855, resided for some time at the defendant's house, but she returned to her father's house, and upon her informing her parents of what had occurred, they consulted a Professional gentleman named Shepherd, and he subsequently brought two actions, one fur seduction, and another for breach of promise of marriage against Mr. Smith, on behalf of the young lady. While the proceedings were pending Mr. C iitt s, who was acting as the attorney for Mr. Smith, communicated with Mr. Shepherd, with a view that some arrangement might be come to between the parties, and, after some negotiations had taken place, Mr. Shepherd consented to take a sum of 501. for the costs that had been incurred in the ac tions, and to discontinue all further proceedings; but upon one condition only, which was, that Mr. Smith should enter into an agreement to manly Miss Hills within two months. During these nego tiations tiations Miss Hills, it. appeared, returned2tiostt 0 _ +louse of the defendant Smith, and on Ore ,she, and in consequence of a ;ester they roecmeirv. d Cutt's and her mother and father, went to that was office, and the proceeding then took place ir. A Smith and the subject of the present inquiry. bot present, and a Mr. Cutts, it appeared, l t v h h e i l or. p m u e r paper was shown tq Mr. were o Mrs.p o l s and they were asked to r ported to bean agreeen to marry their daughter, behind alone with the defen dantssign it, but they refused,ond left the office, their daughter remaining _ The young lady, as he had stated, had bad a child during the intercourse that had taken place impressed with the di s g race f u l c h a b etwee n lice and the defendant Smith, and she I.‘-‘a'a:teerVoidfe'tirieliYr connection, and she upon this occa siGn positively declared that idle would never go back to Mr. Smith's house to o ccu py th e position she had done. A writ.en paper was then shown to her which was afterwards placed in an envelope and sealed up, and Mr. Cutts then handed it to her and told her that it was a good and valid agreement on the part of Mr. Smith N to marry her after a certain time had elapsed, and, upon the faith of this statement, Miss Hills again returned to the house of Mr. Smith and couti nued to c:ihabit with hTm. Shortly after these proceedings had taken place, the mother of Miss Hills asked her laugh er to let her see the agree ment, but she told her she had boon requeste d _ n he o to let any one see it, and refused to do so. The agreement a once agreement was, however, at length obtained, and upon it being shown to Mr. Shepherd, pronounced it to be utterly worthless, and y SPAPER did not in any way bind Mr. Smith to the pr "ance of his promise to marry Mi ss Hat learned counsel then read the agreement tion, which was_as follows : • "An aerceateet made •,a day of 1856, between Rolsert.Eze,leitst ,3%:, Z . Of F. field, farmer, oir the one part, and 2ilari ha a.ee a eaa s , Hills, of a —, spiuster, on.the other parr. Wh reAL an action is now pending in her Majesty's Court • of Common Pleas, in which the said Martha Augusta Hills is plaintiff, and the said Robert Ezekiel Smith is defendant, and whereas it has been agreed between the patties that such action • shall be discontinued upon the terms following : ' Now it is agreed that the said Robert Ezekit 1 . . Smith shall pay all the costs incurred by the said Martha Augusta Hills in .the said action, and the said Martha Augusta Hills hereby agrees to return to Colemans (the residence of Smithy and reside with the said Robert Ezekiel Smith "as herete- fora ;" and lastly, the said Robert Ezekiel Smith promises and agrees to marry the said Martha Au gusta Hills within eight calendar months from this date, provided always that it is expressly agreed between the parties that this agreement, and all obligations contained in it, shall be null and void if the agreement or any copy thereof be shown to the- attorney or other legal advisers of the said Martha Augusta Hills, the said agreement being en' e ed into voluntarily by the said Robert Ezekiel Smith." Mr. Chambers then proceeded to state that the present prosecution was founded upon this agree ment ; and he said be should be prepared to con tend that it was a fraudulent proceeding altogether, that the defendant, Cutts, knew well, at the time, that the agreement was. illegal, and was of no value, and that lie thereby fraudulently induced the young lady to return to the house of Smith, and in the language of the statute, by false pretences, hid in duced her to contrive to have carnal connection with him ; and that both of the's() defendants had thereby brought themselves within the scope of the Act of Parliament. . Sergeant Shee here interposed, and said that so far from the agreement in question not being of any force or value, the contrary had been proved, for Mr. Smith had, in point of fact, married the young lady. . •- - Mr. Chambers said no doubt that since these pro ceedings Mr. Smith . had married Miss HMS ; but the question for the jury was whether this was the original object, and whether the agreement was not intended as a fraud upon Miss Hills- to induce her to continue her disgraceful connection with the de fendant, and whether Mr. Cutts had not merely -acted as the go • between for that object. The learned counsel then. proceeded to state that the moment Mr. Shepherd saw the agreement in question be at once preferred an indictment, which was found by the grand jury, and the case would have come on for trial at the last assizes but for the illness of Miss Hills, and since that time Mr. Smith, most probably in consequence of the proceedings that had been taken by Mr. Shepherd, ha I marrie 1 the young lady. This circumstance, had, however, created a difficulty in carrying out the prosecution, be:ause it was doubtful whether, as her husband was one of the defendants, Mrs. Smith would be called upon to give evidence against him. He therefore pro posed to consent to a verdict of acquittal being taken as far as regarded Mr. Smith, and he should then proceed with the case against Mr. Cutts, who,. it appeared to him, was the most to blame in the transaction, and who, man at' orr ey, ought to have known better than to mix himself up with such a proceeding. The Lord Chid' Baron inquirad whether Mr. Cutts did not appear to have acted all along as the attorney for Mr. Smith ? Mr. Chambers slid co doubt he had ; but lie was stil liable for the consequences of any criminal act I e might have committed. , The Lord Chief Baron observed that if Mr. Cats had done wrong there were other moles of punish ing him without having recourse to such a proceed ing as this. Mr. Chambers said he could not withdraw from the prosecution, and he again asked his lordship to permit the suegeition he had made, to take a ver dict of not guiliy in the case of Mr. Smith, and to proceed against Mr. Cutts only, when Miss Hills' evidence would be duly admissible to be carried out. The Lord Chief Baron said there could be no doubt that so far as Mr. Smith was concerned there , had been a complete condonation of the offence by his marrying the young lady ; and he put it to the learned counsel whether he thought, under the cir cumstances as he had declared them in his opening to the jury, it would not be great cruelty to the young lady, and if any prospect of domestic happi ness for her existed the proceeding of calling her as a witness would not tend entirely to destroy that prospect, and that, therefore, the matter ought not to proceed any further ? Mr. Chambers said that he felt the force of the o%servations that had been made by the learned judge, but he was bound by his instructions to pro= ceed against Mr. Cutts, and he should be com pelled to call Mrs. Smith to give evidence. The Lord Chief Baron then said he should take upon himself, no only as a matter of law, but al-o having regard to the public interest and the feel ings of the parties, to decide that Mrs. Smith was not a competent witness. If she were examined at all she must give evidence equally against her husband as against Mr. Cutt s , an d he shouli there fore rule that she could not be examined. Mr. Chambers said as this was his lordship's opinion it would be useless for him to proceed fur ther, or to call any evidence, as the case rested almost entirely upon the evidence of the young lady, who was the only person present when the agreement was given. I The jury then returned a verdict of not guilty. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-July 17. MANSION-HOUSE.---John Bower, the land lord of the Punch Tavern, 99, Fleet-street, was charged, upon an information before Alderman Cubist, with having allowed the bar of his house to be used for betting purposes. The defendant was fined 201. and 10s. costs. The penalty and costs were immediately paid. James Adland was then charged upon an infor mation with having used the front of the bar of the house No. 51, Poppin's-court, Fleet-street, for betting purposes. The defendant pleaded guilty, and was fined 251. penalty and 10s. costs. The penalty and costs were paid. STRANGE AFFAIR. A tradesman named lingerer, of 48, Rue de la • Villette, at Belleville, appeared a few days ago be fore the commissary of police of the district, and made a statement to this effect :—ln the night he was. awakened by a noise, and got up to see what occasioned it. On entering the court-yard lie saw a man stooping down at the opening to the cellar, and in the act of trying to light a 'miter match ; this man, who evidently took bim for another per son, said, "I have just thrown in two, but they have gone out !" lingerer asked what he was doing, and the man, after a moment's hesitation, rushed on him, and, pulling up his night shirt, thrust it into his mouth with the fingers of one hand, at the same time pressing him'tightly by the throat with the other hand ; this caused lingerer to fall, but he bit the man's fingers with all his force until Ire•tut through the flesh. The man then let go his hold, and jumped over the will into the street, crying out, "I have done the job, but have been bitten by a man who is there I" Another man then climbed on to the wall, and fired a pistol at Ungertr, but missed him, atter which the two men took to flight. The report of the pistol awakened all the people in the house, and, getting baalllarog of resin pie ce whichof sul p h h a u i r. . em In up, they found near the o p enin g to the cellar 20 was a wla 7 ch fortunately h a d no t b urne d . e I with c om b us tibl e materials.
