NOTES OF THE WEEK.

AN UNSEEMLY SCENE IN A COURT Or JUSTICIL
—Englishmen are proud, and upon the whole
they have reason to be proud of their judges and
their courts of justice—always and excepting the
London Basiughall-street tribunal, which, like
the leg of mutton from which Dr. Johnson dined,
is about "as bad as bad can be" The courts of

law in this country are conspicuous for the general
decorum and dignity with which the proceedings
are carried on. So universally is this fact re-
oug..ised, that any exception to the rule is sure
to obtain immediate and perhaps undue promin-
ence. An event occurred last week in illustra-
tion of this. The trial of three men, at the
Central Criminal Court, for assaulting a police-
constable in the execution of his duty, resulted
in one of those "scenes" which all lovers of good
order must justly deplore. Mr. Ribton, &clever
and zealous, but not over prudent advocate,
broadly stated in his address to the jury that the
pobceinan was unmistakably in the wrong.
'poll the COIIIOIOEI Serjeant remarking in reply
that he should instruct the jury that the con-
stable was acting in accordance with his duty,
Mr. Ribton's tone and manner became so defiant,
and his language so offensive, that the judge was
compelled—having regard to his own dignity_
to order an immediate adjournment of the
court. On the following day, it is true, the
over-zealous advocate showed his willingness to
eat "humble pie," by tendering an apology
which the Common Serjeaut, with good taste
and good temper teo, accepted, and thus hap-
pily the affair ended. Scenes such as this,
however, are calculated to bring discredit upon
the administration of justice, and it is to be re-
gretted that gentlemen of education and position
do not bear this more constantly in mind. Mr.
Ribton is not the only advocate who attempts
to usurp the authority in the Court in which be
is called upon to plead. It is only the other
day that Mr. Payne, the assistaut judge, had II
similar complaint to make of a barrister of equal
eminence, and other instances occur readily
enough to the minds of most of us. It is ob-
servable that these gentlemen never attempt to
play the bully before those higher functiouaries
of the law to whose interests they may look for
preferment
• TED • DIRECTOR. "—The company-making
mania has for • time ceased, and new projects
are fee and far between. There is, however,
little doubt that when the travelling season 4
over, and men return to their homes refreshed
for business . intuits several new schemes will be
launched. For the last month the demand for
"Directors" has been considerably greater
than the supply. What will be the result when
a number of new projects are brought out re-
mains to be seen. Meanwhile, this system of
advertising for directors, as one would advertise
for • footman or an apprentice, seems most
derogatory to the commercial community.
" Wanted—A Director who will be required to
take shares to the amount of £400," sounds
thoroughly disreputable. If • scheme is well
founded, and a few directors have already given
in their adhesion to it, there ran be no need to
advertise for a director. The truth is, however,
that it is not the director that is wanted—but
slowly. As to advertising, as one speculating
lira dose, "Wanted, stew directors and secre-
taries," why, it is all sooonsbine. There is
se neseeney to advertise time after time
for "a few secretaries!' There are hundreds of
Assn both in town and country who are well
qualified for the post of secretary, and who only
"wish they may get it." This deVent
advertising is nothing more nor lees
buntingkand the publie shwa bo ea thais=..

Fres Iwava•Nces.—A very significant resolu-
tion has been come to by oue of the London
vestries --that of Rt. Maztin's in-the- Fields. It
ass in the Cniirchyard in the Fields that the
hones of Jack Sheppard were interred—that the
insurance of the chttrch and vestry-hall shall be
removed from the Ruu Fire Office, and taken to
some other establishment. The reason is, the
vestry is dissatisfied with the extremely sharp
practice of the Sun Fire Office in relation to the
fire at Camden, as appeared in evidence in the
recent trial at Croydon. It is said that the Sun
Fire Office have had many such blows as this
lately, and that the directors bitterly regret ever
having brought an action, which has only tended
to bring disgrace upon this enormously wealthy
col poration. The conduct of many of our fire
offiees is very strange. They jump at an offer
when a proposal is sent in—very few inquiries
are made, and the directors will not even take
the trouble to send to the premises for verifica-
tion of the statements on which the policy is
taken out, whereas, when a fire has consumed
the property, and the sum assured is claimed,
all sorts of difficulties are raised. A fire occurs.
The claim is immediately made, and the assured
is asked to put down a list of the property he
has lost, when and where bought, and the
price paid. He cannot do this—who could ?
He finds that he cannot make out • satisfactory
list to the amount he claims, although he knows,
to his sorrow, that he has lost so much • and
the surveyor suggests that the claim should be
reduced. The assurer, probably, gets frightened
at fighting with a great company; has horrible
visions of an indeilible though undeserved stain
upon his character, and—to use an expressive
phrase—knocks under. Five Inauranee Com-
panies are, upon the whole, wealthy corporations,
and they can afford to be liberal. This Camden
House affair is acting as a wholesome lemon to
them, and, no doubt, it will be a long time
before we hear of another such an action But
there is another aide to this matter. Companies
no doubt sometimes pay the sums demanded
when they all the while have strong reason to
suspect that arson, or, at all events a very ex-
eggerated demand. As lemon for fires was
now commenced—fires have their season—and
probably these cease will now be more numerous
than ever, for no fire-office will like to bring an
action unless they see their way clear to a con-
viction. Captain Shaw may, if he will, return
the cause of the fire "doubtful," but the directors
will give the assured the benefit of the doubt.
8111 ROBS= PF-1L also HIS CONNTITCENTIL
Few of our readers who have passed the hey-day
of their youth can have forgotten the Tamworth
manifestoes. In calm and measured language
the late Sir Robert Peel was accustomed to in-
otruct his party and enlighten the country through
the medium of an address to the Tamwortu
electors • and so highly did they prise the dis-
tinction electors;
probably not one in ten even of
those who disagreed with him would have voted
against him. But for the last 13 years another
Sir Robert has reigned in his stead, but not in
such undisputed possession. The truth is the
present Right Hon. Bart. is not conciliatory. He
would almost rather quarrel with his constituents,
when he is unable to quarrel with the Irish, than
not quarrel at all One of those opportunities,
of which he is well known to make such good use,
has just beet' afforded him. Sir Robert's live
colleague having been called to the House of
Peers, another representative is required for the
borough. The favourite candidate appears to
be the Honourable Mr. Cowper; at any rate
he is the favourite with the present Tatnworth
member. Curiously enough, one Mr. John
Peel, of whom uo one seems to know any-
thing, contests the election. The real Peel
and the spurious Peel are on opposite sides and
being of the same name, if not of the same
family, there is no love lost between them. Tho
contest will probably not be a severe one,
although it will be watched with interest, because
it is likely still further to illustrate the character
lof Lord Palmerston's Irish secretary. . .

BELGIOSILINT RIGHTS OF PuLAND.—We last
week offered • few rewarks in advocacy of gitihg
to Poland belligerent rights, and • few days
since the editor of the money articles in the
TIMMS newspaper took up the advocacy of the
measure with considerable zeal. The Northern

Whig, published at Belfast, says, in refereuoe to
the matter :—"The precedents for conceding
belligerent rights to Poland are numerous. To
say nothing of the course pursued in the case of
the Southern Confederacy, we might point to
the examples of Greece in 1826, and of Belgium
in 1831, as being strikingly applicable. Such a
proceeding would not involve the European
Powers in war, any more than a similar proceed-
ing in the case of the Confederate States led to
England and France becoming entangled in hoe-
taffies with the Federal*. It leaves each party
free to conduct the war as best they can, and
neither prejudges the issue, nor makes neutral
nations responsible in the future. It leaves to
each belligerent fair play, and would give a status
to the Poles that would be of impious° moral
service to them in the prolonged and gallant
struggle they are making for national existence.
Russia took the initiative in the Greek case, and
she would, therefore, have leas reason to com-
plain if the European Powers now acted by the
Poles as they acted by the Greeks in 186. It is
possible that England and the other Powers will
not have the courage just yet to take the step we
have referred to. But, if public opinion pressed
it upon them, they would be compelled to con-
cede this instalment of justice they owe to the
wronged and long-suffering Polish nation"
PRUSSIA.-Kiug William of Prussia seems to
be seriously disturbed by the approaching
elections, if the following remarks of a Berlin
correspondent to one of the morning papers be
true. The writer says: "The King, it is
known, had the intention of addressing per-

'tonally a proclamation to the peo?le iu o er to
influence the elections. He did, in fact, draw
up a document of the kind, which he presented
to the ministry in the last sitting of the council
to their great astonishment The latter did not
dare openly to oppose the project, although
many of them disapproved of rations passages.
The King himself wished them to frarkly tell
him their opinion, and-several paragraphs having
been discussed, the King withdrew the sketch,
promising to revise it and present it again at the
next sitting. Since then the ministers have had
confidential deliberations every day, and we are
assured that they are preparing &counter scheme.
Probably all this will end in deciding to publish
a royal proclamation, but it will be completely
fruitless. The re-election of the former deputies
—such is the mot d' ordre adopted throughout
the country."
The ALABAII• to•ne.—The whole of the Cape
colony seems to have been raised to the highest
pitch of excitement in consequence of a visit of
the Confederate war steamers Alabama and
Georgia The Alabama captured, in full sight
of thousands of the Colonists, a fine Fade's'
barque, the Sea Brid OA she was mining into
Table Bay. The Alabama, which had been re-
pairing in Beldam Bay, had captured altogether
fifty-six vessels, and the Georgia fifteen. The
Alabama was visitedj by hundreds of colonists,
who crowded her decks during her stay. They
were received most cordially by her officers, and
the most kindly feeling prevailed towards Captain
Semmes and his crew. The United States
Consul protested against the capture of the Sea
Bride, on the ground that the British waters
extended to the range of an Armstrong cannon
shot from shore, and claimed the delivery of the
Tuscaloosa, which bad been previously taken by
the Alabama to himself as the official agent of
her owners. He grounded his claim on the fact

. -
that, being a prase, and not having been con-
&tuned by a court of any recognised country,
her entrance iuto • British port was • violation
of the Queen's proclamation, and that she had
therefore reverted to her real owners. The
governor decided adversely to both these de-
mands, and against the decisions the Consul
formally protested in the name of his g..verri-
meet. Lie also complained that the original
cargo of the Tuscaloosa had been sold to mar-
chants of Cape Town, and that he cargo of the
Sea Bride would be disposed of in the same
manlier.

the Wareham and Deeebeeter Met. as the repre-
sentatives of each eif these corps were so
evenly matched at the late cotitest at Wareham,
Lb. former only bearing the latter by five
points. The weather up to the time the shooting at
the last range took place, was very adverse for the
match, the wind blowing very strong acmes the line of
it,., bat about live o'clock it became less violeut, and
the shooting improve I. This, doubtless, accounted for
Lb. shooting not being so good as at the match at
Wareham, when the more made by the Dorchester men
amounted to 484. and that of the Wareham to 479
The shooting to day showed a falling off of 50 in the
more of the first named and 37 in that of the latter,
whilst in the late match between the Weymouth and
Wareham men, the former made 413, and the latt .r,
461, thus showing respectively a de-cream of 6 and 9.
