COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. —YESTERDAY. Before Lord Campbell, Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Justice ' Erie, and Mr. Justice CroMpton. REGINA v. EvANs.—ln this case a rule had been obtained so far back as November, 1857, calling upon the defendant, who holds the office of supervisor of - the navigation of the river Dee under the Corporation of the city of Chester, to show cause why a mandamus should not issue, compelling him to take soundings of the river Dee, so as to entitle the River Dee Navigation Company to levy certain tolls upon all vessels, coming up the river. The real question for the Court was whether the company was prima facie able to show a state of things that entitled them to levy the tolls in question... The company was created; by the 6th of Geo. 11. for the purpose of improving the navigation of the river Dee from the city of Chester to the sea; and, besides being entitled to exact certain tolls, the company was entitled to embank a tract of waste land, so that in the course of time they had embanked many thousands of acres of land, and were in receipt of an income of £B,OOO a year from that source. By that act the company were bound to maintain a depth of 16 feet of water in the river. Subsequently, however, another act was.'passed—namely, the 17th of George 11., which reduced the depth of water to 15 feet, and declared that the .tolls should cease if an. affidavit be made by the supervision of the Corporation of Chester, that the depth of the wat - r had fallen below 15 feet. In 1851 the Act .14 and 15 Vic., cap. 87, entitled the " Restoration of the Standard of the River Dee," was passed,, and _by it the provisions of . the Act of George were On Wednesday, an inquisition before the , county coroner for the distriet ('lr.

The deceased, Sarah Kay, aged 22 years, lived with her husband, Samuel Kay, in one of a row. of four or five small cottages.

PARIS Wednesday.—All the accounts from the theatre of the war agree that the conduct of Colonel Cambriels, who, at the head of a battalion of the 74th, aided by the Piedmontese cavalry, arrested the passage of the Austrian columns on the 20th, was most heroic. IHs gallantry has been rewarded as it deserves. He is promoted to the rank of General of Brigade, the brigade of General Beuret, who was killed in that combat, being placed under his orders.

A letter from Rome of the 21st instant informs us that incessant attempts were made by the revolu tionary party to get the Swiss troops in the service of the Pope to revolt. Archbishop Cullen arrived in Paris on Saturday on his return from Rome. He took up his quarters at the Hotel Le Bon Lafontaine, in the Rue Grenelle St. Germain, the favourite resort of the clergy ; but removed subsequently to the Trish College in the Rue des Irandais. He intended starting for Ireland on Monday, but was prevented by indisposition. He leaves here to-day or to-morrow. A rich crucifix, containing a portion of the true cross, has been presented to him by the Pope, and several persons have been already to the Irish College to view it. MURDER AND SUICIDE. ef.?ec THE NORTHERN TIMES, FRIDAY, MAY 27 1859 FEARFUL CONFLAGRATION AT CHELSEA Yesterday morning, about two 'o'clock, one of the most serious fires that has occurred in that locality for several years, broke out in Sloane-street, Chelsea. The premises in which the misfortune arose were in the occupation of Messrs. W. R. G. Mann and Burnett, and comprised three houses numbered 174, 175, and 176. It appears that as a police- Constable of the B division was proceeding along his beat he noticed smoke hovering over the building. Being appre hensive that a fire was raging within, the officer at once sprung his rattle, and by repeated knocking at the door he succeeded in making the numerous inmates . sensible of their impending danger.

The receiver and part of the engine were shattered to atoms, and frag ments were strewn in all directions, some to the middle of the old race-course, several hundred yards off. The building in which the engine and receiver stood, which was a three-storied one and strongly built, was shaken to its foundations • the roof raised two feet, but directly dropped to its former position, except in the centre, just over the engine, where a large portion was blown clean away ; the floors and ceilings were broken into shreds, the walls were shaken and split on each side, and a good portion of that side nearest the engine tumbled to pieces; the windows were shattered to bits, and the whole building and extensive machinery for a time rendered useless. The explosion was heard at a distance of be tween two and three miles, and it shook the earth for several hunired' yards around. Fortunately no one was injured, though some sixty men were at work in the casting-house, fifty yards from the scene of the disaster, and the engineer was at the moment engaged in oiling some portion of the machinery at the top of the building. The noise 'attracted to the spot some hundreds of people, who appeared to look with great interest on the ruins which the explosion had caused. The men.were set to work ou Tuesday morning to clear away the debris, and as soon a's possible, we believe, a new house and new machinery will be constructed, but it will be a long time before the damage can be fully repaired, or the men who have been by this accident thrown - out of employ be again at work.
