BIRKENHEAD POLICE COURT.—(Before Mr. Young husband and Mr. Case.) —Joseph Conley, Thomas Chesworth, Charles Chesworth, Michael Carrigan, and Fergus Nugent, boys, were brought up charged with stealing a quantity of lead from the Birkenhead and Lancashire Railway sheds. The prisoners were r emanded.--Alexander Kearns and John Dodds were brought up on a charge of breaking into a dwelling- Louse in Parkfield. The offence was proved, and 1 41rns's character being bad, he was sent to gaol for 21 d ays; the other prisoner was dismissed.—Bridget Mul vey and Mary Gorman, prostitutes, were sentenced to three months' hard labour each, for drunkenness, dis orderly conduct, and using obscene language. T ER INVENTION.—THE NEW FOUNTAIN PEN—A greater annoyance than a bad steel pen can hardly be tZet with—the difficulty is to get a good one. Amongst the recent improvements the new " fountain pen," just introduced by Rudhall and Co., is the best we have ever se en. By a simple but effective contrivance the ink is retained in a fountain, by means of a second inverted barrel above the writing nib, and this barrel can be taken out at any time, so the pen can be kept perfectly ! le an without any chance of being corroded. Another statur e in this pen is, that one dip in the ink will last tot five minutes' quick writing. The pen itself is of the taest description, and in merchants' offices, banks, and mid in every place, it will be found to fill a want felt by tery one up to this time. We have tried this splendid pen, handed to us by Mr. E. T. Hall, South Jo hn -street, and can pronounce it perfect, and we are sure all who use it will give a' full verdict in its favour. WATER COMMITTEE.—The usual weekly meeting of this committee took place yesterday, when Mr. Hodson Presided. There were also present Messrs. Vernon, Rae, Wagstaff, Farnworth, Beloe, Crellin, Woodruff, 4 ild Estill.—The engineer's report on the state of the 'rater was laid before the committee. It mentioned "at the two remaining filters, alluded to in his last , l ' e Port, were cleansed, and No. 1 re-sanded, and that all Were now in good order and working condition. Also, that the excavations for the pipe trenches of the mill ',:one were well advanced, and that he hoped to be able commence laying down the stoneware pipes in the cours e of the week.

Alderman Woodruff pre '`` Li ed at the weekly meeting of this board yesterday, 411 4 there were also present Messrs. Shimmin, Barton, ckson, Rogers, Johnson, Ridley, and Haydock.— t T c ording to the weekly return of cash, it appeared that " amount received in the various markets up to the P r ' e sn t • time this year has been £10,131 16s. 6d. ; : 00 -1:41 ; 11 4 expended for wages, £1,561 ss. 7d. During a r reapo4ing period last year the receipts were ' 388 ; expenses, 9s. Bd.—A letter was read by lb e Chairman from Colonel Brown, complaining of the th e o f c hild ren i n t o the No r tAa Haymarket during drilli ng o f t h e vo l un t eers. It was d ec id e d th a t a resolution be prepared to the effect that the public would cr excluded from the Haym a rket during the time of r ill —The Chai rman s t a t e d th a t b y or d er o f th e C ounc il Gre at Charlotte-street would not in future be appro- Vriated as a market. It had been suggested that this Iv. t'uld be the means of causing the tenants to apply for a di minution in the rent of their stalls, but the Council : ..er e fully aware of this, and the committee had p . : l / 7 no alternative but to make further arrange efleilts in the interior of the market.— Mr. Ridley eii°light that order would occasion a great de e in the revenue ; many of the tenants would 44.1- ki T t t expose their goods upon carts than sub ,' to the p ro p ose d arrangement.—The Chairman said, au. thCy could now do was to inform the public of the tnion of the C oun cil up on th e su bj ec t. In addition to tiro re gulation he had mentioned, the alteration in the '" of closing the markets will commence on Saturday ; 4) that on and after Saturday next the markets will :a at 10 o' c l oc k, p.m., on Saturdays, and a t 7 o ' c lock ° tb'er nights of the week. It was then agreed to Putt ' d h it . ° Placards in the nog bourhoo of the markets, in ning the public of the new regulations'.

He was therefore of opinion 67p eipulsiun should not take place unless the three ;e were committed in the same year.- t yr.

The exposure of unwholesome th e was an ev il w hich it was their duty to check.l3, tile e petition w hich was presented to the committee by keep ers o f t h e s t a ll s , g tated that the resolution 3 it then stood would give increased power to the 6 ins pector s; b ut h e was o f a diff er ent opinion. About ' ° 9 o lbs. of bad meat were seized every - week, b e 'eh but f or th e v i g ilance of their officers would have e o consum e d by th e public.—Mr. Shimmia said that was true a great amount of bad meat was seized every Wee k l but very little of it was taken in the market. He I,°°•ght the bye-laws were sufficiently stringent, and it til as for this reason he had moved at the last meeting b4 1 ,, t the resolution be rescinded.—On a division Mr. " L ers addition to the original resolution was carried °g the 3 . Alderman J. B. Lloyd called the attention 'e Committee to the market in Pownall-square. He m v ed that th e sur veyor be instructed to prepare a ke tch of a covering for the market.

THE RATI,w-4y L'4O,M!`FIT.f.ON. b h l l le Committee of the Wipe of Lords (of which the t,l e of Devonshire was chairman) on Friday night j 4 - t a dY disposed of the great contest for another route 111 Liverpool by granting the Garston, St. Helens, and tt i a t rington line to the North-Western Company, th tho ugh it was originated by the competing companies, l ° reat Northern, and Manchester and Sheffield Com t:Le9.

(Before Mr. RAFFLES.) A GOOD CUSTOMER. A woman named Catherine Mulrey,- about 50 years of • age, wa• brought up on a charge of being drunk and disorderly in Queen',-square, on Saturday night. , The woman was decently - iressed, -and it - was stated that she sold vegetables in the parket. The most remarkable feature in the case Was, that when Mr. Raffles asked the Bridewell keeper if she were known at the court, the officer replied very naiecl y, " She was here only 104 times, for being drunk and disorderly." This caused much laughter. The prisoner was fined ss. and costs. THE KNIFE AGAIN. John. Bradley, a lab surer, living in Maguire-street, was charged with having stabbed another labourer named William Kennedy. It appeared that, on Saturday evening, the parties were on board a ship called the Vanguard, in one of the docks, when the prisoner created a row with complainant, and then got a knife and stabbed him in the face. A surgeon stated that the complainant had a wound five inches long, from the temple along the jaw, and cut through the ear. The cut reached the bone on the jaw. It was a serious wound, but nOt dangerous to life at present. The prisoner said he was druil: at the time, and aid not know what happened. Mr. Rallies' sif , precate.d the use of the knife, and sent the prisoner for trial. TAKING SPIRITS INTO A PRISON. Catherine Liscard, a tidy-looking girl, was charged by Mr. Bromley, one , of the turnkeys, at Walton Jail, for attempting to take half a pint of rum into a prisoner, who is confined there for debt. The penalty in this case is and not less than £lO. The girl pleaded ignorance of the law, and as the case was not pressed against her, she was discharged; but his Warship wished it to be understood by the public, that the penalty gt such case was very heavy, and would be enforced in future cases of offence. THE MAN AND THE PIG. George Humphries, e powerful-looking man, was charged by Officer 676 under the following circumstances: The officer said he got a pig "roaming about" Sefton-s,treet (only imagine the poetic idea of a pig "roaming'.") As it appegred tc be en "orphan," he thought the bet thing he could do would be to tOte it to a pinfold. Fearing, however, that it might be a Celtic pi'g, and would not go the way he wished, he got a piece of a rope, ana, by a piece of legerdemain that would have made a fortune for the 'Wizard of the North, he contrived to slip the cord over the hind 4g, of the bonheen, and after coaxing it a while, he was going on well enough until the prisoner came up, and says he, "Bobby, where qrc you going with that stump of a porker ?" " What's that At you ?', says I, "as I'm taking it to the pinfuld as it has no owner." ‘,‘ Von lie," says he, " I'm the owner, and if you don't let it go PA make bacon of you," at ;be same time drawing a knife from his pocket. After some fuxtker interesting conversation regarding the this beautiful swine, the prisoner cut the rope that held the pig, and away scampered j,qteresting quadruped, much to the apparent gratification of Mr. Humphries, but greatly to the chagrin of 676, who did not underftcmi Thy a pig should enjoy any privileges in this land of liheriy. Tie cffiger, having lost a four-legged animal, seized the biped by the peck, whereon Mr. Humphries gave him a "Heenan" that laid him as flat as a flounder on the naked street, and this was the shale case. In reply to the charge, the prisoner said the policeman was taking away his pig without any provocation, and when he asked him. to give it up, he demanded payment, which he refused, hie edirOted having cut the rope, and then a scuffle followed ; licit he dco)ed having struck the officer. Mr. Raffles fined the p,risener l,Os, and costs, and so ended this " tail " of a pig. TAKING TIME BY THE FORELOCK. Jem Regan, a well-known thief, who had only come out of jail on Saturday, was charged by Noah Beamish for attempting to steal his Kr.p c i. watch. Mr. Cobb defended. The prosecutor said he was in the palj.ce Court that morning, attending in some business, when fifie w - 4 , T,e.,j: stood beside him for a moment, and, by a peculiar covering of his 4114. with his hat, the prisoner tried to get the watch out of hia vest pocket, put he felt him, and then the prisoner ran away, liut•wai followed by an officer, vho arrested him. Air. Cobb made the best defence he could fnr the prisoner, but the case was too clear, and the prisoner was sent for SHAMPOONING .• A sailor named Albert Ducker was c4arg.ci,l 4,y Archibald M'Creedy, a barber, living in Waterloo-road, for having otolen a pair of boots value £l. Mr. Cobb prosecuted, and Mr. Bluck defended the prisoner. The prosecutor said the prisoner went ipto his shop to be " shampooned," and when he went awa;,' ph,e moots were missed, and were subsequently found on the prisoner's feet. Cross-examined by Mr. Bluck: The pri soner went to get shampooile4, and you lampooned him into the bargain? I don't undertan'd you. Bina ; Oh, but I will make you. Is yours a big place Oh,'areidful big. Then what do you pay a week for it ? About 7s. O. 4:nd do you charge ss. for shampooning and lampooning poor sailors when they come ashore ? No, I only charged him 4s. And what did you give him for that ? Why, I brightened up his whiskers, shampooned him, and gave him two cigars. On further cross-examination, the witness admitted that the pri soner 84 drink in his shop. Mr. Bluck scarified the prose cutor worse lap ij he wied one of his own razors, and said he was everything but an 4oueit i rean. The prisoner, he said, was drunk, and finding that he wa.s the prosecutor, ran off with the boots as a set-off. - The Pri.s.VeVi:, - as repinded for a week, and the boots given up to the owner. nig 1 7 , 1 11W00L ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS The opening for the peaoor e ,c f this deservedly popular resort for rational and entertaining uraupment took place last evening, under the most auspicious circum 7 stances. The day was beautifully fine, and the evening not being less so, hundreds of the usual habitues of pleasure grounds found their way to the gardens, which, owing to the heavy rain that has recently fallen, looked to great advantage. The exotics, and native flowers, shrubs, and trees, had evidently all put on their summer robes, and formed an umbrageous covering over the beautiful walks and arbours which seem for " whispering lovers made." It was evident that once more " summer greened the year,'.' and, from the large attendance, it was equally certain that the public have fully appre ciated tho admirable improvements which the new pro prietary have made since they got possession of the gardens. They have not spared either expense or labour in making the gardens that ma in urbe which is so great a blessing to those whose lives are spent within the precincts of a large town like Liverpool. A considerable portion of the ground which was partly waste last year now presents pleasant walks, gentle slopes, and green plots, laid out with all the skill that a cultivated judgment can impart. As a matter of course, the lover of natural history will find at every turn some feature of interest to attract his attention. Here the zoologist is stopped to inspect some imprisoned denizen of the prairie or the forest, there the ornithologist gazes with delight on the gorgeous plumage of the feathered tribe, chattering away in their cages quite unconscious that they have lost their freedom. The lover of the fine arts also is not forgotten, in the shape of vases, statues, pagodas, and temples of unique construction ; but this department is not yet quite completed. The facilities which are afforded for . gymnastie-exercises are also admitable, and such as the young, and " children of rt larger growth;" would do well topractise for their health's Sake. '4e pyrqtechnl ic disp ay 'last night was on a grand scale, •and was intende to represent the destruction of the beautiful city of Pompeii. The doomed city was entombed under the rolling flood of burning lava which issued from Vesuvius, and the picture of the event last night was of the highest scenic order. The picturesque scenery of the surrounding country and the city itself, with its handsome temples, lofty towers, and noble palaces, were brought out in i bold relief, whilst the background presented a splendid view of mountain scenery; and high above the 'rest, "in state and gesture proudly etninent;" rose tile binning Vesuvius. . ' EIiGLISH Honqrs. Several Piedmont ese officers have just passed through Paris, on their way to England to buy horses. Purchases are also being made in this country on French account. Tie ^„.. f.E,..°"311- von Humboldt, embracing 10,000 volumes, many of them of great rarity, abound ing in presented copies, is to be sold, in all probability, toward§ the end of the present year. The annual return shOwing the figure of merit esta blished in the army during the yearly Course of ride instruction is published. The 22nd Foot, Ist battalion, is 4 the head Of the lilt, and a regiment, the J". Royal Wiltshire, stands Second. The Paris letter of the -Dal7l/ says the news of Gaiibaldi's defeat was indus t r iousl y propagated from Naples in no less thin ten telegrams, variously worded. But it is now confessed by the I!Fe4pol4anGOvernment itself that those despatches were false. ft is admitted. that the combat pf Calatafini paraded as a victory was not decisive; and the eurcssion that the 11)1 , 4 troops returned to Palermo afterwards may very fairly be con strued as meaning that they 40 0 9 worst of it. The admission that Garibaldi's invading force has been swolleit by 0,000 recruits in Sicily, goes far to affirm the assertion from Turin the the whole island has risen in his favour. THE CASE OP CHARLES ANNOIS.—Our readers will remember that at the last October session of the Central Criminal Court, a young Brazilian seaman, named Charles Annois, was convicted of the murder of the) captain of a British vessel, named Philip Barker, under very atrocious circumstances, and was left for execution. The Home Secretary has decided that the prisoner shall undergo the punishment of penal servitude for life, and an order to that effect was sent to Mr. joints, the governor of Newgate,'on Saturday evening. COLLECTIONS FOR THE POPE.—The ll:reek& .Register reports the collections for the Pope to be proceeding with vigour. The parochial collections for the " diocese" of Westminster exceed £2,000. The sum of £1,850 has been forwarded to Rome from the " diocese" of South wark, and £2,300 from the "diocese" of Salford. In addition to these amounts about £9OO is also acknow- 4 ledged from a few individuals, including £4OO from the Count Torre Diaz and family, and £lOO each from Lord Petre, Lord Henries, Sir John Qeton, and Mr. Fullerton Mr. Serjennt Belles, too, contributes Pig.. •A . Boma BOV TRUMPETER. the triumphal entrance of the troops into Madrid, the heroes of the day were a trumpeter and a (log. The trninpeter belongs to the Bourbon regiment; he is only fourteen years old, and is of short stature. When in Africa, he happened one day, whilst in the advanced posts with his company, to be excessively hungry, and he could not get any food. At last he perceived a number of oak trees, and said to himself, "Where there are oak trees there are acorns, and acorns at a pinch can be eaten !" He accordingly slipped away, and passing unobserved by the sentinels, ciim :• , ll,_ 7 the trgg and began eating. He was suddenly nterrupted by a strange noise, aifn hiy dicmav bp perceived that the tree was surrounded by ferocious looking Moors, pizllt was impossible, and resistance out of the question ; 'but a bright idea struck him ; he seized his • trumpet situirided' the eliarge; The Moors, thinking that They had fallen into an ambush, took to flight. This exploit of the trumpeter excited great admiration at the time, and on the entrance of the troops the crowds not only greeted him with enthu siasm, but he was borne in triumph on men's shoulders and crowned with laurel ! From time to time, at the request of the people, he sounded the charge which had struck terror into tie breast? of the Necirs! MURDERS Al' SANDOWN A frightful series of murders has been perpetrated at Sandown, in the Isle of Wight. A man timed Whitworth, a sergeant, and the master gunner in charge of the Fort, was observed on Friday, at about noon, walking towards the parade-ground, with his hand to his neck. He was asked what was the matter with it, and he replied that it was nothing —only a scratch. He further told the coast-guards man that during the night a man or men had got down the chimney, and bad shot his wife and chil dren with a pistol. As Whitworth's conduct had t e:n recently somewhat strange, and had been gene rally noticed by his neighbours as not quite consistent with soundness of intellect, the coast-guardsman took no notice of the observation, and passed on ; the ser geant went in the direction of the fort. Shortly after wards, in consequence of the unfortunate maniac's asser tion with respect to the men coming down the chimney and murdering his wife and children, two non-commis sioned officers went to his house, which is situated within the precincts of the fort, and an entrance having been effected, a most dreadful scene presented itself. The wife of the gunner and the whole of his children had been deliberately murdered, their throats having been cut with a razor. Rousing the police, they etamined the place more closely. At the foot of the bed Mrs. Whitworth was lying partly undressed, with her baby in her arms. On her right hand lay another child, and at the foot of the bed a third, the ages of the three being respectively about four months, four or five years, and eleven or twelve years. The whole of these had their throats cut, and were lying in a pool of coagulated blood. On a second bed were found the other three children in a similar condition. One of these was about eighteen months old; the others were the two eldest. The whole of the bodies were quite cold, and their condition, as well as the state of the blood around tbem, showed that the dreadful deed must have been committed some hours previously. The wretched madman, for it is evident that he was nsane, appears, after destroying the lives of his wife and children, to have made an attempt upon his own. The wound he inflicted upon himself was, however, very slight, anti he will soon recover from its effects. He is now in custody, and has confessed having murdered his wife and children, and also that it Nyas his intention to have blown up the fort, but that, having lost the key, he was unable to do so. These are the main facts of the story which was elicited by dege4 »t the inquest held on the bodies. At this inquest Captain Manners, of the isle of Wight Militia Artillery, deposed—l was on the barrack parade ground yesterday, about two p.m., when I saw Whit worth coming running across it in great excitement. Captain Robinson was a few paces in front, and WhitwoFth threw, himself on his kness before him, and, holding up his hands, 4Ciaiiiied, "'for God's sake, sir, save me ! " then gave Captain Robinson his watch, an envelope with some papers, and some money, and said, " He's used me dreadfully; he's held a pistol to my head, and said he'd shoot me if I didn't cut my throat ;" pulling down, at the same time, the ceile- t ; of 114 rat and showing his throat covered with blood Ile then added, There' rlfy vofk doWn there, pr'ay go down." Ike was sent to the hospital, walking there himself. Some one then present on the parade said, " He has murdered his family," and T then immediately ran down to the fort. A papei was was f.:Aind in the room where the shock ing tragedy was perpetrated. It was iu Iyhitworth's handwriting, and ran as follows : " Sandown Fort, 1860, 17 May, 1860. " Infern plot murdered Sergeant Whitworth's wife and six children. Lieut. —, R.E. Dr. 7 - 7 - the rascall under a cloak as a friend. Shocking Work P7ppral Captain The board of gnardiaiii 'of* the 4 - ewort Union were applied to by the police to bury the bodies. The 'hag Post says, " They sent over seven boxes—scarcely to be designated coffins—into which the gory remains of the unfortunate sufferers were indecently forced by some of the pauper officials soon after their arrival. There was not the slightest attempt made to perform any of the usual cleanly offices, and some of the coffins not being fare er t oNh the bodies were actually crushed into iheir narrow prisons, with most sacrilegions indecency, and without the smallest' article of funeral clothing upon them. The lids of the coffins were merely secured by a few common nails, and in this condition the whole seven were huddled together in a kind of taxed cart, and sent over at one o'clock to Brading Church for interment, So deficient were all the arrangements, that Vut * fo'r - the yolu to ( service of a small party of men belonging to the Isle of Wight I`4iiiiia vbo had come over to Brading from feelings of curiosity, the bodies could not hare been removed into the church, Their aid having been accepted, the coffins were deposited in the centre aisle, where they presented one of the most painful exhibitions that can be imagined. The service was read by the vicar, the Rev. Isidore Heath. The church was densely crowded, but neither relative nor friend of the deceased's family was present. The interment took place in a square 'grave, scarcely three feet deep—in keeping with the indecency marking all the arrange ments of the funeral. It is a disagreeable duty to allude to the shortcomings of any public body; but in this case silence would be inexcusable on the part of the reporter, who was an eyewitness of the plinful facts he has endeavoured to describe?' • • THE AGAPEINIONE AGAIN. The _pr?Wp,eq:cfter Afercary tells a strange story of doings at the Agapemone, that " Abode of Love," some time ago exposed to public notice : " About six years ago, Mr. Lewis Price, a clergyman and a Welshman, joined the Princites. Since then he has married one of three Miss Nottidges, who are said to have taken with them to the Agapemone £6,000 each, the whole of which money was secured to the lord. Another Miss Nottidge was married to an inmate, and a third died lately under distressing circumstances. The brother of the deceased 'lady has taken legal proCeedings against Mr: Prince, the head of the establishment, for the recovery of the £6,000 his sister possessed, and the 'case will, 'we under.: stand,' come - before the judges next term.'Ui: Price appears' at one time to have been'a Zealous advocate of the creed of his adoption, and was one of those who attended the noisy meeting held in Bridgewater to persuade the good folk of this town that Mr. Prince was a heaven-sent prophet and redeemer. About three months ago, how : ever, Mr. Price, having been deprived of his wife for six weeks or thereahouts, get • ti4:el of 'his lord's assAptiOns, and left the loving abode, vainly endeavouring to take his lady with him. With the late Mr. Waterman, of Castle-house, Enmore, he resided for a short time, and has also been staying at the Lamb Inn, Spaxton, adjoining the Agapemone, devoting his time and energies to procure the release of his wife from the tender guardianship of his aforetime affectionate brethren. Various have been the plans and contrivances to attain this end ; bid' they have hitherto proved unavailing. Applica tion was made. to the police to remove Mrs. Price by -force-, her husband alleging that he had reason to believe that.she was detained against her will. Of course the constables had no ower to intßik themselves among the happy aridly and tear away one of its members;' so ano her plan had to be. devised: •. It was arranged that when the' lady . was walking on the terrace in the fear of the dwell ing of the Priticeites, Mr. Price should jump'tli, barrierS dividing the gremds from a 4 01 0 10 '4' ing field, seize his parluer, and' frVl§t‘ fo'tne pro- ' tection of the Policeman in Waiting - to Pieyent a Agapenione as.saultiug ' him' - aud rescuivl breach of the - Peace . fromthe - fth : . e gentlemen o .e her, This sciletne, feasible as it . looked, turned - Qui to be difficult 0 'el:egii(s?l. the doughty Welsh to display his courage, b u t w h enev man patiently waited for a favourable opportunity er his lady made her appearance in the gardens and on the terrace she was guarded by a Princeite on either side, or was accompanied by one on l y , with others at hand. Mr. Price did not consider himself capable of whether he two Agapemonitesl or he feared ihe readiness oi: the police ofgcer to give iftrprollipt succour, has not transpired. ' The gallant libera tion was not' attemiited; proceeding no further than a Prqieet, 'and reegnzse 'a conAeqnently had to l aw , hohng perhaps that that • Might achieve what force had not da re d to essay. Th e services of Mr. William Brice, of 13ridk,e'l ger, were retained,..aud tly),t gentleman, in 00pviitly with Mr. Price, demanded' the lady so much sought after qt thp gates of the Agappplciw when their business was known, and access itself The gates were 1 0441 ligainsi them denied to the object of their search. A fortnight back affidavits were laid before the judges, detail ing the circumstances of the case, and declaring that the lady was detained against her will. Thereupon a writ of habeas corpus was issued, the return to which hqd to be }pale lost Friday...

This reply de feated the aim of' the husband, the judge a once declining to make an order for the restoration of the lady to her liege lord, Further proceedings are to be taken, for we hear that there is a question of money to be contested, beside a question of wife-pos session,Mr.Price being shut out from the enjoyment of any portion of his wife's £6,000, as well as from the fortune he may have owned himself prior to tlirowtlig himself into the arms and power of Mr. Prince. It is stated that all the inmates of the Agapemone transfer their property to their' chief, and sign a deed by which they agree toloifeit all on disdentinuingrto 'reside at the place and sepa rating theinselves from the association. By the same deed provision is made that members absent ing themselves three months shall be excluded. The people of the village of Spaxton allege that seventeen of eighteen Agapemunites have quittedr the place within twelve - MoiltliS ; and' they say lb seven or eight years no children ha've been born to the many couples riving in' the mysterions stablishment. '' - ' ' THE DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, MAY 22, 1860 A ROMANTIC CASE. In 1789 an English gentleman, named Anderson, travelling in France for his pleasure, made at Nancy, the acquaintance of a young girl, Mdlle. Catherine Burthe. He fell passionately in love with her, and promised to marry her as soon as he should come into possession of his fortune ; she, on her part, pledged herself never to have any other husban,l. In 1793 Mr. Anderson, being compromised for his royalist opinions, fled to Germany, being aided in getting away by the young woman. In 1836 he caused an advertise ment to be inserted in the Journal de Nancy, requesting her, if alive, or her heirs, if she was dead, to present themselves at the office of a certain notary named to receive a communication affecting their interests. Catherine Burthe, after Anderson's flight, had been obliged to come to Paris, and there she married M. Titon de la Neuville, who, after a time, left her a widow with three children. One of her friends told her of the advertisement. This led to a correspondence between her and Mr. Anderson, and the latter, in consequence, came to Paris. The two agreed to live under the same roof, and they had a grand establishment at Paris, and a country house at Nogent-sur-Marne. After Mr. Anderson's death, which took place some time ago, the wills were found, one executed at London, in 1843, leaving the bulk of his fortune to a nephew, and the other made some time after in France, bequeathink the larger part of the fortune to Mdme. de la Neuville, and appointing a Frenchman his executor. The nephew took legal proceedings before the French courts to have the second will set aside, but failed. As, however, the greater part of his uncle's possessions consist of real property in England, he has brought an action before the Probate Court to obtain the execution of the first will CHOICE CLIPPINGS FROM OUR SCRAP BOOK. THE HAPPIEST DAY QF M WE. The ancients certainly made a great mistake in not choosing Niobe for the goddess of marriage. Hymen is by far too jolly : he is all smiles; while Niobe i just a; she ought to be,—all tears. There never yet was a marriage that was not a perfect St. Swithin atlair. No one, unless lie has a soul o gutta percha, thoroughly waterproof, should think o going to a wedding with less than two pocket handker chiefs, and even then, a sponge is better adapted to the "joyful occasion." Men take wives as they do pills, with plenty of water,—excepting, indeed, when the " little thin Fs" are well gilt. If a kind of matrimonial barometer were kept in each family, and its daily indi cations as to the state of the weather accurately regis tered, we have no doubt that, on an average being taken, the following results would be v i rrli-cd at . 4efo f e marriage , . Fair. During marriage . . . Wet. After marriage . . . Stormy. Meteorologically speaking, it would be highly interest ing could we arrive at a knowledge of the exact amount of " doo" prevailing during courtship. No one can feel more truly wretched lima on the happiest day cf bis life, .4. v f eg t r,g s fyfii pore inelai4.ol): than flineral. The bride "weep s for everything and nothing. A`t first she's heart:brOken because she's going to leave pa and ma; then, because she hopes Charles will always ove her ; and, when no other excuse is left, she bursts into tears because she's afraid he will not bring the ring with him. Mama, too, is determined to cry for the least thing. der dce.r girl is going away, and she is sure something dreadful is going to happen : and, goodness gracious ! she's forgotten to lock the dining rooni door, with all the wine and plate on the table, and three strange green-grocers in the house. A chllrch, the water is laid en at eye-service • indeed, the whole party t o ol; so `retched no one would imagine there was a ‘f happy pair" among them. When papa gives away his darling child, he does it with as many sobs as if he were handing her over to the fiercest polygamist since Henry the Eighth—instead of bestow ing her upon one who loves his "lamb," regardless of the "mint" sauce that accompanies her. The bride groom snivels, either because crying's catching, or because he thinks he ought, for decency's sake, to apPeir deeply mOveci ; half-doz,en "bridesmaids ate sure to be all weeping because everybody else weeps. When the party return home, however, the thoughts of the breakfast cheer them up a little ; and the brides maids in particular feel quite resigned to their fate. As if they had grown hungry by crying—or the tears had whetted their appetites—they drown their cares for a while in the white soup tureen. The champagne gces off, and goes round. 7 ‘ -. ` .* 7 Then the father gets up, and, after a short and pathetic euloginrn upon the virtues of that "sweet girl," whom he ,‘ loves as his own flesh and blood," thumps the table, and tens the company that " any one who would not treat her pro perly would be a sco:fncirel." Upon this, every one present turns round to look and frown at the wretched villain of a bridegroom, and then they all fall to weep ing again. But so thoroughly has the feeling set in against the new son-in-law, that it is only by a speech of the deepest pathos that he can persuade the company that he 114 not the least thought of murdering, or, indeeds, eTen assaulting his wife. At last, the mother bride, and bridesmaids retire to say—, Good bye,' end haye a good cry altogether up stairs, Then the blessing and the weeping begin again with renewed vigiour. As at Vauxhall, they seem to keep the grandest shower till the last. The bridesmaids cry till their noses are quite red, and their hair is as straight as if they had been bathing. And when the time comes for the happy pair to leave, in order to catch the train for Dover, then the mother, father, sisters, brothers, bride, bridegroom, baidesmaids, and every soul iu the house, all cry—even down to the old cook, " who knowed her ever since she was a baby in long clothes,"—as if the young couple were about to be " transported for life," in the literal rather than in the figurative sense of the term. THE LATE At the Drawing Rooni, - among the most resplendent in jewellery, we noticed the Duchess of Nortfiumber land, who wore a tiara of diamonds of most costly character, nearly three inches in depth ; the Duchess also displayed a superb necklace of single atone diernotas of great size. The Duchess of iinccleuch had a com plete suite o emeralds and diamonds; the largest OrnelAcis were about the size of a half-crown piece, and were worn on the bust. The Duchess of Wellington had a fine tiara and necklace of single stone diamonds. The jewellery, consisting of diamonds and emeralds, worn by Lady Wenlock, Lady Hunter, and Lady Caroling Burgess, was very fine.

We may mention with the same respeot fill homage for beauty, that we heard frequently expressed around us the names of the daughters of the Countess of Dunmore (the Ladies Murray), the Misses Rushout, Miss Shepperdson, Lady Florence Paget; but our list we see would become too extended were we to pursue these pleasing reminiscences.

The great development of commercial enterprise during the last quarter of a century, the concurrent progress of .our numerous Colonies, the extension of our Mercantile Navy, and the large introduction of Steam Pawer in marine transport, have increased the property requiring protection against Sea Risks to an extent far beyond the means of insuring it. In fire and life insurauce, companies alone are now employed ; and an increasing tendency to resort to them for covering sea riskat has long been manifested. In particular, when floating cargoes are sold on the shipping documents, buyers invariably prefer the policies of a company. Every properly constituted and well-managed Marine Insur ance Company hitherto established has prospered. Besides the three companies recently formed, five have long been iu operation in London ; and with what success appears from the market prices of their shares. Those of the " Marine," the one last formed, with £l5 paid, now sell at £lll. Three of these companies also do fire and life insurance business; and it is remarkable that the two which take marine risks only have been the most successful. There are no Marine Insurance Companies in Liverpool or Manchester ; and it is admitted that there are not in the locality a number of individual underwriters sufficient to effect the very large amount of insurances arising there. The 'Vessels entering and clearing out from the Mersey already amount to a yearly total of nearly Five Millions of Tons, each way : and this tonnage is, and has been, for a very long period, increasing at such a rate as to double itself every six teen years. It is estimated that the Premiums paid for insuring these Vessels and their Cargoes do not fall short of Three Millions Sterling per Annum; and that the corresponding average Profits exceed a Quarter of a Million. A quarter of a century has elapsed since the establishment of the last of the Five Companies above referred to. During this period the property exposed to marine risks, and insur able in this country, has increased to an extent which it is difficult to estimate with precision ; but of which the following figures, from the Accounts of the Board of Trade, will afford some idea : The declared value of Exports of the Produce and Mann factures of the United Kingctoxa was— In 1634 Iu 1;844 1854 97,184,726 In 1859 130,440,427 Showing in this branch of our Export Trade alone, during the last five years, an average annual increase of upwards of six millions and a half sterling. Of the value of the Foreign and Colonial produce exported from this country no account was taken till 1854. In that was £23,174,023: the amount returned was £18,648,978. In 1853 it showing an average increase of more thau one million sterling per annum. The Shipping Clearing out with cargoes h•om the Ports of the United Kingdom, in the Foreign and Colanial Trade alone, had an aggregate burden— In 1‘3,4 In 1841 of 5,297,168 „ In 10a4 of 9,507,721 „ In 1859 of 10,242,624 , Showing an increase to nearly five-fold in the last ' Twenty- Ave years. Again the Shipping cleared out from British ports in the Cbasting Trade, which in 1834 amounted to 10,331,249] tens, had in 1859, notwithstanding the transfer of much of th.,atra,de to our railways, increased to 16,509,471 tons. During the last ten years, a very luc , ative field for Marine Insurance has been opened by the immenae increase in the importation of the precious metals into this country, and their exportation to other parts of the world. In 1859, the Bullion Trade, so far as it, appears in the Official Returns (which take no aceor. t at of the large parcels of gold passing by private hands], had risen to the amount of $72,758,959. By calculations based on these and other accounts of the Board of Trade, it appears that the Field of Marine Insurance is extending at the rate of at least Fifteen Millions Sterling per Annum. Our commerce having thus largely outgrows the means provided for its protection against maritime risks, it has been determined to form the Thames and Mersey Company, with 4 Board at each of the three great centres of our Commerce, so as to afford, in each locality, the same facilities for the imme diate transaction of business one large scale. These facilities will, by.coralainin,g the operations of London and Lancashire, extend, th,e basis of Average, secure a corres ponding i.;.crease of stability, and proportionately improve the prosectof..returia from the capital embarked. A very Incrative business which has hitherto been diverted inta other channels, and imperfectly transacted, will be qaas retained in the localities to which it naturally belongs; while Insurers resident in these Districts may, by becoming Share holders, secure for themselves a portion tithe Profits which now pass into other hands. The Directors have spared, no exertions in securing the services of thorouglaly coMpetent and experienced Under writers and 0t1.1,e: Officers.
