That man could have gone to work if be pleased, but he refused, and in consequence was sent to gaol. In prison he had to be supported at the public expense, so that the public are deeply interested in the question. It is an offence against the law. • The words meant to threaten, within the meaning of the act of parliament, which runs thus :—" And bp it further enacted that if any person shall by violence to the person or pro perty, or by threats and intimidation, or by molesting, or in any way obstructing another, force or endeavour to force any journeyman in any manufacture, trade, or business, to depart from hi s hiring, employment, or 'work, or to return his work before the same shall be finished, or prevent or endeavour to prevent any journeyman, manufacturer, workman, or other person not being hired or employed, from hiring him self to or from accepting work or employment from any • persons or persons, or if any person shall use or employ violence to the person or property of another. And every person, so offending, aiding, and abetting or assist ing th?rein, being convicted thereof in manner here under mentioned, shall and may be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for any - term not exceeding three calendar months.". This is .the part_ "If you have engaged yourselves with Messrs. Piper, we shall succeed eventually, and then .you will be turned out, and you will not then be able to get work." I believe and am of- opinion that upon the meaning of those words there can be no reasonable doubt that it amounts ,to intimidation. In the - case before alluded to the judges said, that "the intention of the legis lature :was to make them quite free, and seeing that intimidation might be used to carry out such agreement, it was enacted by 6th George IV., cap. 129, sec. 3, that if any person should by violence, threats, intimidation, molesting, or obstructing another, force or endeavour to force any workman to depart from his employ, or prevent him from accepting employment, &e., he should be liable to imprisonment for three calendar months." It had been said that no threats or intimida tion had been used, but the use of express words of intimidation , was not n ecessar y. G reen , the delegate from London, h a d state d that the society had £20,000 at their comman d , and that if the prosecutors discharged a man because he was association, they c ou ld stop the a member of their t srplies, and they would not have a singl e hand upon their works. That might be construed as a threat e ' ve n n bya than man of strong o nerve. This is a far more serious point personal. violence, for personal violence, wh en opp n o e sel to a s trong and vigorous man, might be equally-met, but it would require a man with higher nerves to counteract such words when he found that they were calculated to take the bread ou t of his mouth and dep rive -his family of support. This was an offence that came within the meaning of the Act, of Parliament, and was the most serious that could be held, out. Having arrived at this con clusion, it now becomes my duty . to consider the amount of punishment to be inflicted. Ow in g to, the appeal which Mr. Roberts made yesterday in his defence, that I should temper mercy ,with judgment, I shall not inflict upon the defendant the punishment and deeTadation of hard labour, for degradation it would be. It is my duty to prevent such attempts at cembinatiOn, and inflict a punishment adeanate to meet so serious an offence ; but in so doing, as. I before said, I shall not have recourse to hard labour. ' The sentence of the Court will be, that the defendant be imprisoned for two months for the ,threats used by him. SOIREE TO MESSRS.

It appears he succeeded in laying the cable from Candia to within about 70 miles from Alexandria, the deepest water having all been. passed over, when a flaw of insulation was. discovered, which compelled him to stop paying out. The flaw was about twenty miles from the ship, and when the cable was picked up to within about three miles of it, it parted in about 1,500 fathoms of water.—China Telegraph. • • Miss AUGl7E:TA3sox.—Tiie Glasgow Herald's Paris correspondent, writing some time ago regarding this lady, who is shortly to sing here, remarks :—" The event of this week has been the debilt of a new artiste at the Grand Opera, Miss Augusta Thomson of Glasgow. The first British singer who ever trod the boards of the Parisian Opera appeared on Wednesday evening in the character of Matilda in the opera of Guillaume Tell,' and with complete success. The voice of this young lady is a soprano of extraordinary volume, purity, and beauty; and although the role of Matilda was not by any means calculated to show her great talents to the best advantage, she fairly captivated her audience by her graceful and fine rendering of the air, Sombre Foret,' and the succeeding duo with Arnold. Many ' bravos' greeted the young stranger ; and in the following acts she fully maintained her newly-acquired fame." IMPORTANT ARBITRATION CASE AT DUDLEY.— SWINDELL AND OTHERS AND THE BIRMINGHAM CANAL COMPANY.—An important arbitration case was brought to a termination at the Dudley Arms Hotel, on Monday night last. The question at issue may be briefly stated as follows :—The Park Head Tunnel of the Birmingham Canal Company is on the estate of Lord Ward, and Messrs. Swindell are tenants on that estate, and consequently the mines and minerals belong to them. Upon the company making this tunnel, it was determined by mutual agreement that the canal should not be undermined, and that the compensation to be given to Messrs. Swindell for giving up between four and five acres of mine,:should .be ref erred to arbi tration, in case the parties concerned could not agree. Messrs. Swindell .claimed £12,000, 'and the company appealing against this claim, the commissioners awarded them £lO,OOO. The company again appealed, and on Monday a jury was sworn, and several practical men examined. The jury, after being twice locked up until a late hour, awarded Messrs. Swindell £B,OOO. The company gave notice of appeal, and the case will there fore ve POPULAR a a t gi FEELING Es against, to o: t e h t el h N H e Court oTusH teo E M P I RE .— The PorlError,Lords. and, if again appealed correspondent of the Times sa y s :—" Thing T s he ha Vienna correspondent a very great change Austriai e n thattie during the last few months, and it strikes in soon have to chose between constitutionGoanvdernremneinuttwieilill.

EIGHTH HENRY curious manuscript was presented to the Antiquarian Society of Yerkshire in IMB. It contains sundry rules to be observed by the household of Henry VIII., and enjoins the following singular particulars :---" None of his Highness's attendants to steal any locks or keys, tables, forms, cupboards, or other furniture, out of noble men's or gentlemen's houses where he goes to visit. No herald, minstrel, falconer, or other, to bring to the court any boy or rascal, nor to keep lads or rascals in court to do their business for them. Master cooks not to supply such scullions as go about naked, nor lie all night on the ground before the kitchen tire. Dinner to be at ten, and supper at four. The Knight Marshal to take care that all such unthrifty and common women as fol lowed the Court be banished. The proper officers are, between six and seven o'clock every morning, to make the fire in, and straw, his Highness's privy chamber. Officers of his Highness's privy chamber to keep secret everything said or done, leaving harkening and in quiring where the King is, or goes, be it early or late, without grudging, mumbling, or, talking of the King's pastime, late or early going to bed, or any other matter. Coal only allowed to the King's, Queen's and Lady Mary's chambers. The Queen's maids of honour to have a Chet loaf,'a manchet, a gallon of ale, and a chine of beef for their breakfasts. Among the fishes for the table is a porpoise, and if it is too big for a horse load, a further allowance is made to the purveyor." The manuscript ends- with several proclamations. One is to take up and punish strong and mighty beggars, rascals, and vagabonds who hang about the court. XTi.AORDINART RE - LICE Or ANCIENT SWITZER LAND.—The relics I was now surveying came from a tumulus, opened some years ago, under the direction of Professor Treyon, of course in a forest, on a hill. The hill and the forest are about five miles inland from Lausanne. The relics are three earthen pots which are filled with a calcined-looking stuff ; then, sundry small bones of animals ; then, a number of warlike implements, and a still greater number of female ornaments, consist ing of glass bead necklaces and bracelets, that have an Egyptian character, and . a very curious appendage, like a little bronze cage with a round white stone loose in it—a child's rattle, in fact. These objects were found in the following ()Frier : lowest were the earthern pots that held all which had once been a hero, or heroes. Above these came a vast assemblage of bones, supposed 'to be those of the warrior's favourite animals, which were slain in order that they might accompany him into Hades. At the summit of the tumulus—crowning the terrible interest—were four skeletons of females, supposed to be the warrior's four wives, also sent after him to Hades. Concentrating the interest, I take the professor's account of the uppermost skeleton. It was that• of a young female, in an attitude of suppli cation and wild agony. The knees were bent, as if she had implored for life ; the arms we re cas t on high, as if in frantic deprecation . of her fate. She had evidently been tossed upon the top of the pile, and her limbs yet retained the very posture in which she died. Then earth and stones - had been thrown hastily over the corpse, to crush out the remains of life, if any remains of life there were. A large stone had shattered one of her feet;- another lay across her arm, the bone of which it had, broken. "Was sh e s t one d t o d ea th ?" I asked. , uNor replied the professor; ‘she was probably slaughtered at a stone-alter, which was close to the tumulus, and in which the customary, blood basins of the heathen are still to be seen in situ—for, the altar, as we had others of the sam e ki n d, we -did no t remove from its place. Besides, it was the wish of the owner of the wood that the relic should remain on his property." " Did you preserve the skeleion ?" " I could not.

I was glad to hear that passage in the report where it is distinctly pointed out that the work of this mission is not to be the . exclusive work of the two Universities ; they are to be the nucleus from which the efforts are to sprinz, around nit our hope and con- which they are to centre .4ngland will be anxious and ambi tious to share in this good undertaking, and that rsities will have done no more in Vths than the uniVe their sp( function to-day, which is to point out to our countrymen the way in which they are to go. (Cheers.) But the resolution which I have undertaken to gecond. 'meals by its language specially to our minds the 'union of the - two uni and although I am sdrry, and almost 3rsities 3d, to introduce one word of what is per sonal in connection with such weighty and,holy rs as those we 'have before us, yet I may be permitted, at least upon this day. to say that it is a particular pleasure to feel that in the vest which I wear, by your favour, the union of the two Universities is in some degree signified and. represented. (Loud cheers.) It will always re main ' among the most delightful matte and hon ourable recollections of my life th - at the associations of reverence and affection with which every Ox ford man must regard the University of Cambridge have been, increased on this particular occasion by the honour—little, indeed, deserved—but not upon that account less to be valued and remem bered. (Cheers.) But the union of those Uni versities signifies :much, indeed, that pertains alike to the present purpose of the meeting and to the welfare and happiness of England. In that union is contained rivalry not only compati ble with respect and affection, but it is that kind of rivalry in which they draw a stronger and a higher vitality. They have before them a com mon work : they are the heirs in common of re collections such as scarcely any institutions in the world .can boast ; and at this period of what might be thought their extreme old age,,they are, thank God, developing themselves with new vigour upon every side, and promising from day to day, and year to year, to become less unequal to the enormous calls which the wants of this mighty nation con stantly make upon them. (Cheers.) Never can the Universities be united fora better, holier, or wiser purpose than that in which they are now engaged ; and, permit me to,say, never can they be united for a purpose, which is more naturally germane to their work, if their work be, as we hold it is in the first instance to be, the bulwark of the Christian faith ; for he has narrower views of the functions of the Universities who can con sider that in a single operation, even though it be the greatest of all connected with the development of the mind of man, the Office of the university can' be confined. Their very name—l do not now enter into the question of its origin —may serve as an example of the extent of purpose which they contemplate. And when you are told to undertake missionary work, you know well that you are invited to go forth alike as the ministers of spiritual and temporal blessings, and that as our Lord, who brought, light and immortality into the world, spent the greater portion of his time in a direct mission for the consolation and relief of human woe, so you, when you carry the Gospel into Africa, are not only to provide the natives of that country with the passport to immortal life, but you are to give them hope for themselves, for their children, for their descendants, for all that is dear to man in this world, as well as the other ; there will be, with all the blessings which belong to the other world, everything, too, that can belong to this. (Cheers.) Eminently is it fitted for the University to undertake to be in the van of such a work,' and well it is that we should see that if the growth of civilisation and the immense development of this nation in all ranks, classes, and pursuits, has rendered it far more difficult in this period of the , world's history' than, it ever was before for Universities to answer the demands made upon, them, yet that at least there will not be wanting effort or will ; but if it be a question , of extending their operations to classes hitherto not within their reach in Eng land; or if it be a question of carrying the truth great c of that one: ose Univ he yOuth of )art es, an( was - to specia )Ufld N t was his dirty to elevate himself, to carry hit self beyond the narrow limits of the particular organisation with which he was immediately re lated.' Desiring the propagation of the Gospel in Africa, he asked himself where he could find miist power,"and the most desirable and effective engine for the .prosecution of that work, and his heart, his conscience, and his intelligence told him- d not c that question two U versifies of ugland (Cheers.) pr Livingstone is an example of such men as our ideas , of the age in which we live—that supe riority to all worldly calls and engagements, that rapid and keen intelligence, ~17hat power of governing men, are the very qualities in great men which commend themselves with resistless young by whom We see this build (Cheers.) Whei this noble -structure I cannot stay for a moment to admire its majestic proportions; it is not the gold but the temple which sanctifies, so it is not the senate house of Cambridge, distinguished and beautiful as that place is, but it is the minds and hearts of those by whom it is filled which can alone draw attention for a moment. (Cheers.) Let us render to Dr. Livingstone the full tribute of what we feel towards him. He is not merely a Christian, &missionary, a traveller, a great traveller, but he is a hero, corresponding in every particular to that great formation which the admiration of all ages has consecrated—he is a hero. (Cheers.) Even our greatest living poet, the great poet of his a g e, Tennyson (loud. and prolonged cheering), in his latest work, the ." Idylls," which has taken its place in the deathless literature of the world, has carried us back to a time of heroic men, of 'heroic deeds, and of heroic character : but if the power which he possesses could have gone beyond what it has'effected, in giving almost 'living re presentatives of those characters, and if he could actually have evoked them from their tombs, there is not one among them, not a man whom he has ever represented in song, who, if he, could have been raised from the dead, brought forth, and walked among us, who would not have been ready to recognise as a brother the great traveller, Dr. Livingstone, and to acknowledge him as among his 'worthiest companions. (Great cheering.) I know.there is much before you, and I will be faithful to what I said at the commencement, that I would confine myself, as far as I was able, to rendering the testimony, as becomes me as a member of the sister University,, to the satisfac tion and lively delight which is felt in that University at" the sacred co-operation—for so I may well call it—the sacred partnership in which, upon this special occasion, they find themselves with the University of Cambridge. (Cheers.) I have stated that which is my deepest conviction =--that this is the place, that these are the places, in which to find the human material —not merely the silver and gold, but the human material by which, under God, this great work is to be pressed forward. I close what I have to say by simply and solemnly commending to each one of us, in his own mind and con science' to ask himself whether this special and particular undertaking does not in itsel icombine the presentation of every good, of every hopeful prospect, and of every solid advantage which can possibly be required in any civilising and Chris tian scheme ? If that be so, let us not shrink, but by earnest endeavours strive to support in acts that which we have commended in spirit, using our own acts as if by virtue of them we could prevail, by remembering at the same time their insufficiency, and commending the prosecution of the.cause to the sole favour and protection of Al mighty God.
