IlurToN, t,so INSOLVENa CAsks.—The following applications were heard court yesterday :—Samuel Holt, grain and potato dealer in this town, appeared for his first examination. He was supported . by Mr. M'Oubry, and opposed by Mr. Cummings, who appeared for a creditor named Herne. It appeared that the insolvat had several creditors, one of *limn (Iterno had sued him .in the 'County and obtained a verdict. - The jit.d.ge . expressed his belief that the present.application was made for the purpose of defeating that verdict. He did not think this was a case contemplated by the 'Act of Parliament, and therefore disfassed the petition. — Robert RUMS Brown, a commercial traveller, iron- Monger, auctioneer, brewer's solicitor, &c., &c., appeared for his,first examination. He was supported by Mr. Gray, and opposed by Mr. Husband, who appeared 'for the creditor Evans. The insolvent appears to have carried on his different occupations at nearly the same time. Becoming insolVent, he had made two applica tions to the coart, both of which had been disthissed on the same ground—for omissions in the schedule. The ease occupied a . consideiable time ; judgment Will be delivered to-day. TRE GARIBALDI-HALL AND FRANCESO ZIMMERMANN. —Franceso Zimmermann, the late tenant of the Garibaldi Singing Hall, having filed his schedule, appeared for his first examination. Mr. M'Oubrey, instructed by Mr. Rymer, sutported the petition and Mr. Husband appeared for the creditors. Towards the close of last year the insolvent, who was formerly the keeper-of a café in Paradise-street, took the Teutonic-hall for - a term of three years from Mr. Teuton, the proprietoi. The engagement was that Zimmerniann should pay £lOO rent for the first six months, 1150 for the second, £2OO for the third ) and thus increase £5O every half-year. The new tenant refitted And decorated the hall, intro duced a number of singers, and gave it the fashionable name of the Garibaldi Conceit-hill. " Garibaldi," however, vrould not draw sufficiently to ' pay, and Frances° Zimmermann being ttnabie to pay for certain articles he had ordered, a warrant was issued for his apprehension. He was taken, duty conveyed to autme no now desires to be released. The opponents of the petitioner appear to suspect that he has not delivered up the whole of his books, which is rather strengthened by the following letter addressed to Mr. Anderson : "115, Great 1)1.1ci.-"street, Manchester, filth May, 1880. " Sir,--I am informed yott are acting as solicitor for Zimmerman, late of the Garibaldi Singing Ild.ll. t beg to inform you that there is one of his creditors here in Manchester whom yon have not named in his schedule, and who is also subpcened as a witness to appear against Zimmerman on the 16th of May. This creditor anti witness is in very poor circumstances, and t think it would be for the interest of Mr. Zimmerman - that he do not appear on the examination day. ' Indeed, if he is examined on oath, , Mr. Zimmerman will not pass his examination. Truths will come out which had better be kept in the dark. It is needless for me to say more than I have already written.. Communicate with Mr. Zimmerman the moment you receive this, and send me an answer by return of post. Tell Mr. Zimmerman that the creditor knows all his dealings—and, in fact, has kept a copy of his books—and can check the sche dule to a penny. He is poor, and we `now what money will do. It is not Mr. Noar who is referred to.—l remain, yours respectfully, "JAMES HENRY." The individual alluded to in this letter is supposed to be Mr. Waller, who was formerly a clerk ,in Mr. Zinimermann's employment. The case was adjourned to the 20th June for the production of this witness. LIVERPOOL POLICE'COURT.-YESTERDAt (Before Mr. RAFFLES.) RITCSING TO PROCEED TO SEA. Mr. Black appeared on behalf of Captain Smally, of the ship Herald, who eharged , ten of the men belonging to the crew for refusing to go to sea. From the statement of Mr. muck, and the evidence of the captain and pilot, it appeared that the ship was in the river, bound for Bombay. The men had signed articles, and received £2 15s advance, and at the last =talent they refused to do their duty, alleging that the ship was leak ing and short banded. This ast,ertion was quite negatived by the evidence, and -the _ringleader of the gang was sent to jail for ten weeps, and the other men f or e i g ht wee k s ea ch. ASSAULT BY A FEAIALE. Mary Jane Kershaw was brought up on a warrant charged with having assaulted Eliza Cumming. The pristner Was represented by Mr. Bluek. Complainant stated that some days ago she was violently attacked in the street, and linocked down by the prisoner, wko kicked her when down. In reply to Mr. Bluek, the complainant said the prisoner was recently a tenant of hers, and after she left witness spoke not in the ke.t terms of the prisoner to her new landlord. The prisoner was fined ss. and costs.. CAUTION TO SAILORS. • Several sailors were brought up by Mr; Murphy, of the Loral Marine Board, chargedwith neglecting to join their ships after signing articles and getting advanced notes cashed. They were sent to gaol for different periods frorp.three.to teti weeks. f • , PREPARING - 808, THB BAIN. . - John Smith and George Watson, reported to be returned convicts, were charged with having ran away with sit umbrellas from the Shop door of Islington llowe,'lslington. The parties went up to the door where :the umbrellas Were, and ran off with th m. • liwy , weip:arrested With the articles in their pmse,sioa. The prisbnefs were sent for trial. There is great mortality amongst the lambs in the south of England. One farmer, near Winchester, has sustained _a loss of upwards of 1200 through the mortality. The animals are struck with disease, and die almost immediately. CATTLE KILLED BY LICKING PAINT.—Last week, two short-horn buds, about 16 months old, in a lot of 25, the property of Mr. Thomas Clarke, upon New Moor Farm, Southminster,. were seized with frothing at the mouth, affection of the brain, and other symptoms, from which one died the. n ext day, and the other was necessarily killed. Mr. Howe, veterinary surgeon, on hearing from the shepherd that the animals had licked some lead-coloured paint from off a part of the buildings, immediately pronounced it to have occasioned the attack, and on a post-mortena examination the mortal effects of the poison were clearly developed.—Essex Retold, THE POPE'S IRISH VOLUNTEERS.—A shipment of Irish recruits for the Pope is expected to take place about the close of the month. The disembodied militia men are freely offering themselves to the priests who are acting as recruiting sergeants for his Holiness. In Dublin, the recruiting sergeant—whether in black or scarlet—has met, it is said, with some success. One account states that 200 drapers' assistants had volun teered-for the Papal army, while another represents the number as high as 350, and it is stated that the houses thus denuded of their hands have been compelled to supply their places with women. In the adjacent counties of Meath and Louth the new crusade is being carried on with considerable vigour. On Tuesday thirty or forty young men from Killarney proceeded by the steamer Sabrina to Bristol, en route to join the Papal army. Several young men of respectability are also abotit to dept t for the same purpose. HER MAJESTY'S SHIP MAJESTIC. The coracles and flat-bottomed boats of the ancient Briton ; the ceols, hulks, aescs and boats of the Saxons; the navy of the great Alfred, *high consisted of galleys rowed by thirty tit forty pair Of dirsiten ; the Great Harry of Aeiify the Seventh, and th 6 Grace de bleu of Henry the Eighth, tnaiined by their titaire subjects, maintained in the days of Obi the tionotit Of out country; and kept the nations of the earth in constant awe and subjection: But, suppose the ancient Briton, the Saxon warrior, Alfred the Great, thB seventh Flew and the eighth Henry, tiotild obtain a peep at the present fleet of battle ships—old England's wooden Walls, which ride majestically and reign supreme on every sea —they would find boats larger than their finest vessels, and many a line of battle ship which would have shattered to the winds all their fleets combined. Still !hese were the men who sowed the acorn and trimmed the sapling's which have growil into the mighty oak-made "messengers of Kteith',' of the i6th century. , When Ring John claimed the Sovereignty of the dais, and declared all foreign ships, which refused to strike to the . British flag, fair and lawful prizes, he little dreamt his dec. cendant, Queen yict 9E il ; would rnlin a greater dis 7 tinction, in eivaying the sceptre of invincible power over tt7;ry ocean, and in ruling over lands and peoples in every ttitte And she does title on every Sea, aiid tlfe does give lairs tb eitry country, fof it had been said the son never sets on her dominiOni: One Of these riiiMMOth vessels of which Yictpria's navy consists now lieSln the Mersey, At the usual station nearly opposite Itock-ferry. Thrmigh the kin tress of Captain ,Men4s the public were allowed • Monday to make an : insPeqion, of her stupendous armaments, which cdnipiiSe every modern improvement in naval warfare. She is a first class screw steamship of 2,566 registered tonnage and carries eighty guns ; was built at Chatham and launched in 1853 ; she has two engines of a combined nominal power of 400 and indicated power of 700 horse. . On the upper deck are twenty-four gunS; on the main and lower decks twenty eight guns; fourteen are of eight inch bore and sixty - five cwt. each; • the others ate thirty-tWo pounders of weight ranging front forty two to sixty-dye cat. each. The eoniniander is Captain BierldS. The officers num ber thirty-pile:OfegOtt She. i manned by 327 marines, boys, acid seanieri; Set itill cernplernent how ever numbers over 700. The arrangements on board are precisely similar to those of all first class men'-of war. The stab-room is situated of course in.the after part of the vessel on the upper deck ; and is tastefully and expensively decorated. Underneath is the ward room where the snperior officorz, vlevou ,-16,,retner, mess and sleep. Below that on the lower de:l is the gun room and mess-room of the subordinate officers. Here also is the office where all the business is transacted and the men paid, by tWo paymasters and three assistants. The lover (lea possesses the gfetilegt, atWaithi for the casual visitor, with the exception of the ladies; who, as matter of course, crowdnear the stern on the main deck.. . . It is on the loWer deck that the men live, eat, drink, and sleep: Their messes are arranged between the guns ; and their hammocks above the guns,' 24 inches in breadth by many feet in length of hanimack room being allowed each marl. IA the Men Mess at the same time ; and everybody present during meal time on Monday must have enjoyed the scene. There was a hum of conversation passing around ; the boys were especially humorous in their actions : 'type of the Briton, with youthful vigour stamped on each broW, undaunted by the skirmishes of past days, without a thought for the future, unknown to grief, insensible almost to pain, braVe, generous, and noble, there they were, between the guns--Leating. talking; laughing, baWling; and tumbling al3orit. llo* tticio liercule.s in miniature enjoyed jokes of their own Making; here one ii&et hot tea into his neighbour's lap, and these a second tapped a bisorit-niunehing coniraile on the back, causing parts of the bread to stick in his windpipe and half choke him. The rest appreciated the fun, and the performers were thanked by being thrown into a similar dilemma in return. On board the Majestic one day is Very . like another,—" ship life knows little of hours ;" the day is divided into six watches, and each watch to eight bells: On 'Sundays hammocks are piped up" at seven, wrapped neatly in the canvass hanimock, and plated lie the hettings, where they have the benefit of the breeze and the sunshine. After breakfast the men are informed how to dress for church according to the Season. Inspection by the officers and surgeon ensues, and then the captain inspects them all on the upper and main decks. Ail being ready, divine service takes place on the quarter deck. There is no work done on Sunday. At half-paSt four the men are " piped" to supper, and the evening is brought to a close at an early hour. Beneath the lower deck is the cock-pit, where the injured get surgical aid: The cabins of the officers are arranged around the fore cock-pit, and each of these is ornamented to the varying and often peculiar taste of their occupiers. The inferior officers sleep also on this deck, their hammocks being slung outside the cabins. Under the fore 'part of the "pit" is a store-room, which contains very interesting 'relics of the Russian war. There is a deible-headed Russian shot whiCh passed *Rhin a few inches of the head of Captain Mends, who at that time was Admiral Sir E. Lyons's flag captain ; a drum picked up on the field in Dha, 1.110 master gunner of the Majestic ; and a number of other things in the shape of swords and arms. In every place there is perfect order ; every hole and corner is occupied by shot and arms; above the gas are hung the sponges, rammers, and words, for loading and cleaning the guns; arms for the Ilse of the Marines, and boxes of shells, Millie and Enfield rifles stand in racks around the sail-room and gunners'-room ; boxes of arms for boat service lie hero and there, and in the hold of the ship are two large powder magazines. Shots and spare cables and ropes, car porters' tool-chests, shot lockers, plugs for plug ging shot holes=-occupy their proper spheres ; and such exquisite order is observed elicry*here, that nothing soots to be oat or its own proper place, which reflects * the greatest credit upon the captain, the first lieutenant, and all the officers and men on board. _Recent discoveries id our dockyards of rotten gnnbdats, coupled with the half discovered designs of the gentleman across the water, has attracted the attention of the nation and created a good deal of sensation about the state of our navy. But it need not he doubted that a fleet of ships, of the size and strength of the Majestic commanded by men of the experience of her captain, would, in case of a rupture, make all our warlike neigh bours feel that the wooden walls of old England are as strong and impenetrable as ever. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.-YESTERDAY, :Before the Worshipful WILLIAM M. JAMES, Q.C.) JOHNSON AND ANOTHER V. GALLAGHER AND OTHERS.—At the sitting of the court this morning his liononr stated that he would defer his decision in this case until the other cases had been disposed of, for the purpose of affording Mr. Prendergast and Mr. Bonds well an opportunity of consulting upon the point, of law which had,been raised in the.case. • MERCER V. JAMES.—Thin was an issue in which some building transactions between the plaintiff and the the former residing at Manchester, had been raised. After hearing the arguments the court deferred its judgMent: HUGHES • ;V. WOODS. —ln this case, the plaintiff sought to recover the value of a, quantity of bricks, supplied to the defendant, which had been made at a field in the neighbourhood of Edge-hill, near Liverpool, on the defendant's ground. It appeared that the agent of the plaintiff, being in possession of the defendant's field, sold same bricks to the latter, at 235. per thou sand, and the claim being objected to the present suit had been instituted. On the part of the defendant, it was contended that the claim could not be sustained, on the ground that the bricks were mule on his own field, and that the materials of which they were constructed were his own property. Whbn the court rose at half 'past five o'clock the arguments had not been concluded. Dr. Emerson, an American missionary, has jus returned via Panama to the United States to the Sand wick Islands, where he has resided uninterruptedly for 30 years. Until be arrived at the Isthmus he had never seen a railroad, having left his country before such things were thought of. FREEDOM OF THE CITY TO CAPTAIN 31 4 CLINTOCR, R.N.—The Lord Mayor has fixed Saturday; the 19th, at one o'clock, for the presentation of the freedom of the city to Sir Leopold M'Clintock, at the Guildhall. His lordship has invited a large and distinguished company to the Mansion-house on the evening of that day, to meet Lady Franklin, Captain INl‘Clintock, and his gallant comrades of the yacht Fox. THE LATE COUNT SZECRENTI.—In a will drawn up by the late Lord Szechenyi, in 1833, is the following singular passage :--" I wish my body, if possible, to be taken to England—a country in which I have learned so much—in order that it may there be dissected. My reason for wishing, this is, that my example may tend to diminish the dislike which is felt by the English to the dissection of the bodies of their relatives." We understand the Emperor of the French has been pleased to accept of a copy of the translation recently made by Mr. J. H. Simpson, of selections from his Majesty's writings, entitled " Napoleon 111. on Eng land," and to compliment the author on the felicity of hig translation. Permission at the same time has been given to Mr. Simpson to translate the entire writings of the Emperor, and the English translation will in duo time be published "by authority." THE NATURE OF Womira.r.—As my father used to say (observes the Season Ticket), as to women, you must study their nature.

THE DAILY TIMES, TFURSDAY, MAY 17, THE IRISH BUTTER TRADE. ' The importance of the Irish hatter trade cannot bet over-rated. It is the sheet anchor of the farmer there --his all in all—the means of paying his rent and chargft, deftning the cost of labour, and maintaining his family. In fact, the butter is his bank. Setting so high a value Upon national manufacture, we were the more pained at some recent- revelations - in the great staple of the.trade—z-the city of Cork. A very injurious practiCe, not only to the Ctlrk market, but to the butter producers of Ireland, was- detected, eiposed, and, we trust, repressed; : before arty real Mischief hid beets done. The fatilitres Cr perpetrating 6.6 ria',l,q,,t so oppor tunely discovered` by the Weigh-fioVili 6d/dila, *at so great, that it is a matter of congratulation they Were turned to more frequent account, and thus inflicted irre parable injury to the butter tride in The south. The rarity of the practice, speaks wall for the general integrity cif the deiletei that the fre qtiency Of such frauds N;rotild brie" ruin r;n the tilde, and divert to Rolland, Belgium, and the sane towns twat demand which Ireland : now mainly supplies. Many persons-believe that Ireland commands .the. British market—that she is without a rival in the pro duction of butter—that the experts of another countries are nothing compareftwith her own. ,This is a mistake. The impdrt Of , foreign butter is very large, and has steadily inereased under free . From 183,511 cwt. in 1844 it toss to 513,396 'cwt. in 1856; • Since then it declined tei 41,d06 eWt. in 185'7, and ftirther to 380,000 in 1858.. Of-the Vital fdreigri Hollancl contri butes the large quantity of 255,812 eiVt. Now it is computed that the total quantity of Irish butter shipped to Liverpool and London, which receives nearly all the Irish honnieipott,i, is about 560,000 cwt., or little more than cloilble the thitch; )V.p should not, then, have our Hibernian friends so sanguine ahrut beating all rivals in the British market. The fact that the consumption of foreign butter has steadily increased, notwithstanding the 55. duty, is a strong proof that rivalry is not only probable, but prac ticable; and to enable the Irish producer to bold his around now; When all ate placed. on the same level — with the differetice id freight Only, Which is slightly in favour of Ireland-411.4 shotild be Mtettli to sit Iply the beSt pe4ible article, 'and Maintain the repdtatien for fair dealing V;hich ha; blitlfertO aa.7ra:et6tiSed thO Irish manufacturei add rrieraaiit; • Dishonest practices will take place in eery trade, and the very scrupulous Hollander has not been exempt from the charge of turning a marc banco by tho exercise of a knavish ingenuity. It was with no little concern we saw, some weeks past, a 'circnlar from a -London firm, complaining of the extensive adulteration in Irish butter. Messrs.. Yeates; Acocks, & Copernan allege that butter is largely adulterated, and, as allegations are of little value withoitt proofs; they give reasons for their belief. In the "season;' 04 it is Called; which ektends from the Middle of May to October, iiie adage weekly' arrivals in. London of Irish hater Were about 8,000 firkins. The average weekly arrivals this winter, when the season was over, and the cattle are stall fed and mostly dry, had been 12,00 firkins—showing an increase of 33 per cent. on the summer's average. Instead of the Production of butter declining in winter, compared with summer, it was imtdrted at the rate of 4,000 additional firkins per week. The extra imports must hive been the produce of adulteration, in the opinion of our, informants, and they tell us how the thing is done. Large quantities of beef fat and suet are sent over from England to certain Irish ports, where the manufacture of the spurious article is carried on; *ith. the rid of potato starch, water, and soda: Of this abominable compound about 3,000 fir kins are sold every Vieek in the lionclen Market. The retailer who gets it much cheaper than theiitire article —say from 10s. to 15s: per cwt.--forces its sale; and the consequence has been that this year the import of the REAL article has declined from 10,000 firkins weekly to less than 3,000. This is very alarming, and deserves the attention of all who feel an interest in Irish. pros- parity. The decline of the butter manufacture in England, from the expanding development of the cheese trade, as well as the incteasing demand for fresh milk in the towns along the railway lines, affords a great opportunity to the Irish b'utter producer, of which, in justice to him; we must say, he took an hotiOurable advantage, and not only held his grmind, but opened new markets in the teeth Of the Dutch competition. lie does not fear, and has no reason to fear, a fair rivalry iii the production of butter, pork, and beef; but if this systematic adultera tion be not suppressed by some means or other, the butter trade will be seriously affected. It ought not to be difficult to discover the partiesvAo lend.themselves to this base fraud. The farmer is wholly relieved from blame. We suppose not oue firkin in a hundred i "stripped" in the Cork market ; for such impurity as the circular states is extensively carried on in sortie ;Well-known portL The farmer sometimes gave an extra soakage to the firkin, and extra salt to its contents, to add a few pounds to the weight. and depreciate the finality but with knowledge came improved processes of treatment, and .now complaints of dishonesty. scarcely ever occur. Though, we believe, great difficulties exist against the practical working of an Anti-adulteration Act, espe cially in the ease of articles which must unqe:su delicate chemical tests, yet butter needs no scientific apparatus to discover whether it be genuine or mixed with non butyrine ingredients. At any rate, the process of detec tion is far simpler, and there can be little difficulty in tracing the nauseous article front the shop of the• London retailer up to the Irish store whence it Was shipped. We believe legislation may be advantageously applied to the extirpation of this adulterated article. If a person sells one-half hog's lard and one-half butter for whole batter, he is just as criminal and punishable as if he sold one-half sand for sugar, or chicory for coffee. Per; haps it would be inconsistent with the principles which govern the 'relations of buyer and seller to enact that no person, subject to a heavy penalty, shall mix any ingre dient with a genuine article, which will lower the price, if fraud be not intended. If a person buy a mixed article at a lower price, knowing it to be mixed, and where no dishonesty has been practised by the seller, we do riot see how the law eau interfere between buyer and seller, prohibiting the one from selling at a cheaper / nice what he states to be impure. But what the inter position of the law can accomplish is this—that no per son shall sell as butter a vile compound of yellow fat,. farina, and soda. The Irish members will take a deeper interest in Mr. Scholefield's bill afterthe very important facts communi cated by the London firm, who have done excellent ser- Vice in calling public attention to a matter which so vitally concerns Ireland. It should be remembered that very little Dutch butter 'is consumed by the English working classes; it is generally used by the higher, and for pies and all kinds of pastry is superior. The Irish is the favourite of the working classes, and in its pure state will always, command the superiority, even at the enhanced price of 2d. or more in the pound. At present the impure stuff is sold as Irish firsts or seconds, and thus the character suffers, while the palate grows accus tomed to the inferior article. The Irish members should take counsel on this vital matter. Three millions ster ling a-year represent the value of Irish export trade in butter. It is worth looking after.—The Land. THE LETTER-CARRIERS', AGITATION.—The London Letter-carriers have held a public meeting in St. Martin's Hall, for the purpose of explaining the grievances under which they labour. Before the meeting closed there were from 1,000 to 1,260 letter-carriers in attendance. A SCOTCH CLERGYMAN. ON Hl,z TRIAL.—The Esta blished Church Presbytery of Edinburgh have been engaged for ten days.in the trial of the Rev. Mr. Maetie, Minister of the Canongate Church, on charges of drun kenness and other conduct unbefitting a clergyman. The charge was found " not proven," by 22 to 14. FATAL FIGHT.—Two men, .named Wales and Brazier, after quarrelling at a public-house called the '. Bell," in C ambrid g e, the other evening, agreed to a fight, which shortly ended with the death of Wales on the spot. A coronet's jury returned a verdict of manslaughter against Brazier and Parr, the keeper of the public-house, and they were fully committed for trial on the coroner's warrant. . REFORMATION.THROUGH THE STAGE.—Mr. Benjamin Webster, who is now acting in Glasgow, has received the following letter :—" Dear Sir, —last night I attended the theatre. I sate you act ' Richard Pride.' Allow me to offer you my most grateful thanks for the great reformation which your delineation of ' Richard's' character has wrought in me.

Tom Sayers writes to The Times : Sir,---In answer to Mr. Heenan' s. letter, which appeared in The Times of this day, I beg, first, to observe that I have not been hiding myself, as he would insinuate. I called, with my backer, at the office of Bell's Life in London on Tuesday, the Bth of May. I told him that my backer and I were going out of town until Saturday. I visited Tunbridge on Wednesday, Maidstone on Thursday, Tunbridge and Hastings on Friday, and Brighton on Saturday. My movements were well known, and a letter or telegram addressed to " Tom Sayers," or " The Champion of England," would have found me at either of these places, but none came to hand. The ridiculous suggestion put forward by Mr. Heenan, of mutilating the belt, I laugh to scorn, and could afford to treat it with the contempt it merits, but that some good friends of mine—of the Peace Society—have, inno cently enough, patronised the notion. The belt, Sir, I have fought hard to obtain,—striving for that prize, I have within the last three years defeated some of the best men of my countrv,—and, without intending to cast the slightest slur on my gallant opponent, I nay that no American citizen, nor foreigner from any other land, however flowery and sunny, shall bear it, or the buckle of it, from Old England while my arm and heart are capable of defending it. lam as ready as Mr. Heenan to fight again, and I repudiate with indignation the insinuation that I am not. In a very short time the Champion's belt will be mine by indefeasible right ; and even if Mr. Heenan had defeated me it would not be his. He would have to do as I have done— -meet every aspirant to the honour of wearing it for three years before he would be come the lawful possessor of the trophy. What, then, becomes of the assertion made in Mr. Heenan's letter, that the belt is equally owned by both of us ? There is no such equality; but I will do him the justice ho appears desirous of denying me, by admitting his equality in valour. To run, swim, ,or wrestle for the belt of the prize-ring is a challenge so eminently absurd that one can hardly imagine it emanates from a sane man, and the evidence of aberration of mind . is greatly strengthened by the proposal to jump off a house top. The same proposition was oxen made by a lunatic, who met his medical attendant alone on the roof of the asylum. "Let us," said the mad patient, seizing the doctor with a firm grasp, "jump down;" but the medical man, with great presence of mind, replied, "Nay, any body could jump down; let us go into the street and jump up." Like Teddy the Tiler, I know something of the roofs of houses, and their foundations also ; and while I unquestionably admit that Heenan is a "brick," I hope always to bo able to say with truth, as I do now, that'l am a bricklayer. The offer to fight four men, at intervals of thirty days, savours of bounce, and is unworthy of John Heenan. He should remember that it m ight take him the fi rst month to vanquiss Ss h ToAYERS.

The rate of insurance represents (with profits of the companies) the compensation for the loss to the insurer. The Government duty is a pure and cumulative inftiction. Agricultural property is exempt from this.

The great deveteieniiffie co' ecenrnercial enteT i r o is r •_e te ctrin t re the last quarter of . a csnerty, the onneurrent numerous Colonies, the extension of our Mereanta s e Navy, o and r the large introduction of Steam Pckeer its inerine transport, have increased the property requirieg protection agein Sea Risks to an extent far beyond the means of Ms - et-leg it. In fire and life insurance, companies alone are now employed; sod an increasing tendency to resort to them for eaceeing sea eels has long been manifested. In particular, when ficaiting i cargoes ate sold on the shipping documents, buyers invariably prefer the' fettles of a company. Every propeele oonstituted and well-managed Marine Insur ance Company hitherto established has preepered. Besides the three companies recently formed, five have long b ' Cell m operation in London; and -With what success appears from the market prices of their shares. Those of the .. Marine," th=i one last formed, with £lB paid, noev sell at £lll. Three of these companies also do fire' aitil life insurance business; eiretlit is remarkable that the twolehich tike marine risks only have 1 - .Ve'n the most successful. There are no Marine Insurance Companies in Liv'erpord or Manchester ; and it is edeteieted that there are not trt the locality a number of indlYkieel- underwriters sufficient to effect the very large amount of frehreancee arising there: The Vessels entering • and clearing ettlf, from the Mersey already amount to a yearly total of nearly FiveMtllions of Toes, each way : and this tankage is, and has been. foe a very long period, increasing at such a rate as to double itself every six i' tan years. It is es ti ma ted that the Premiums peed for inllMitig these Vessels and their Cargoes do not fall short of Thfee'Yfillions Sterling per Annum; and that the corresponding average Pfarts exceed a Quarter of a Million. A quarter of ~,/ et &trey has elapsed since the establishment of the last of the Five Cemeteries: above referred to. During this period the property eitettectl to marine risks, and insur able in this country, has increased to an extent which it is difficult to estimate with precisidn*; but of which the following figures, front the Accounts of the Board Of Trade, will afford some idea : The declared value of Exports of the PrOdirce mid Mann factlres of the United Kingdom was— tie 1:534 £41,649,f91 In 164 1 4' 58,581,291; Ia 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 mental 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 rear the amount. returned was £18,648,918. In 1858 it was 4?3,174,023: showing an average increase of more than one million sterling pet; annum. The Shipping clearing out with cargoes from the Ports of the United Kingdorn, in the Forcien and Colonial Trade alone, had an.anrcgate burden— ' n 1814 of — t„ 2,185,099 tons Id 1841 of „ 5,297,168 In NA Of , P,507,721 In 1859 of 10,2E,624 Showing an Mere. sd to nearly five-fold in the' last Twenty. five years. Again the Shippi , g clearsd felt from British portal in the Coasting Trade, which in 1834 anteknetel to 10,331,249 tons, had in 1859, notwithstanding the transfer of much of this trade to our railways, increased to 16,509,471 tons. Dieting the last ten years, a very lwative *eV for Marine Insurance has been opened by the immense intreast in the importation of the precious metals into this country, and their exportation to other parts of the world. In 1859, the AalliGn Trade, eo far as it Wears in the Official Returns (which take no account of the large parcels of gold' passing by privede hands), had risen to the amount of £72,758,939. By calculations based on these and other accounts of the Board of Trade, it appears that the Field of Marine insurance is extenditl at the rate of et least Fifteen Millions Sterling per Annum. Our commerce having theta largely outgrown the means provided for its protection ageinst maritime risks. it has been determined to form the Thames and Mersey Company, with a 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 on a large scale. These facilities will, by combieing the operations of London and Lancashire, extend the la sts of Average, secure a corres ponding increase Of stability, and proportionately improve the prospect of return front the capital embarked. A very lucrative business Itltieh has hitherto been diverted into other channels, and imperfectly transacted, will he thus retained in the localities to which it =Aurally belongs; while Insurers resident in these Districts miry, by hecomine Share holders. secure for themselves a portion of the Profits which now pass into other hands. The Directors have spared no exertions in securing the services of thoroughly competent and experienced Under writers aid other Officers. Until Parliament shall extend to Insurance Companies the privilege already granted to every other description of Taint Stock Company, the Policies will, in accordance with the long established practice of te London ffices be so framed as t limit the liability of each Shareholder to , the amount pf his Shares. Applications for Shares must be accompanied with a Banker's receipt for £1 per Share, in part paymeet of the Deposit of £2 per Share. Should the amount so paid exceed £2 per Share on the number allotted, the surplus will be returned; but if it falls short, the balance must be paid on Allotment, or in default the Allotment will he cancelled. If no Allotment be made, the Deposit will be returned without deduction. Applications for Shares, [in the form annexed,] may. be sent through any of the Bankers or Brokers to the Company : from whom copies of the Prospectus and forms of Application may be had. May, 1860.
