In the evening, on the motion for adjournment till
llotailay, among other subjects discussed,
Mr. GRIFFITH in juired whether the Government had
received any account of the capture of two vessels by a
Nem; olitan frigate hoisting English colours.
Sir It. FEEL, alter censuring in very strung terms the
foreign policy of the Secretary of State, which he char-
acterised as weak and oscillating, and very shaandul
and very humiliating to this country, adverted to a
rent note of M. Thouvenel in relation to the anneal-
t. if Savoy and Nice to France. which, he said, was
at variance with the assurance given by the Emperor of
the French, and confirmed by M. Thouvenel himself
that the great Powers of Europe should be consulted be-
fore the annexation took place. He protested against
the conduct of the Emperor of the French, and against
the lux manlier in which the the foreign affairs of this
country were conducted. He planted that the
neutrality of Switzerland was at an end, that the way
in which the annexation had been effected was opposed
to the distinct understanding of the Treaty of Turin,
that Switaerland had not been consulted in the matter,
and that her rights were meowed by the cruel hypo-
crisy of France.

This was an action for false imprisonment.--Mr.
James, in stating the case to the jury, said, this was an
action brought by the plaintiff, a respeetable man, re-
siding at Cambndge, to recover compensation in
damages from the defendant, one of the proctors of
Cambridge University, for • false imprisonment. The
question involved was one of considerable importance.
The proctors of the University claimed the right of ap-
prehending all persons whom they might suspect guilty
of incontinence, and of detaining them in custody. The
defendant by his pleas had not raised that question on
this trial, but it would be raised in one that would follow
this case. At present they had only to deal with the

FRIDAY.

The Lord CHANCISLUM, in moving that the Law and
Equity Bill be referred to a select conimittle, briefly ex-
plained the objects of the Bill, winch might, he said, by
volume.l up in five words one court for one cause ; "
that is, if an equitable defence arose in a court of coin-
nom law the Bill proposed to give that court the power
of deciding the question, so that the parties might not
be put to the eip,.n. of ...in:: before anotber tribunal.
The

tions against it, and as that WAS the case lie thought it
would be better if a select committee were appointed
to examine them.
Lord LYN DWIMT supported the motion, hut Lord St.
LeiM Ann's, who was opposed to the vitae of the Bill,
questioned the propriety of such a Cialr e.
Lord IiaoMMAM thought, as there was a diTialoll of
opiiiion between the coin 1111 l n law and equity judge,. the
proper worm) was to refer the Bill to a select com-
mittee.
lAird Citri.marnau hoped theltill would be much alb-reel
before it became law, but concurred in referring theileal
to a select committee.
Lord Kiximiaiws thought, if the Bill were referred
. to a select committee, it could not become law during
the present session.
Alter a few words from the Lord Cuascaddma iii re-
ply the motion was agreed to.
The Duke of Sionnistrr stated, in reply to 11rd Dun-
gannon, that no British subjects were employed at Cher-
bourg. MOW British shipwrights had gone thither in
hopes of obtai ll ill g employment, but had been woefully
disappointed. The wages given at Cherbourg were 2s. 6,1
for l 2 hours' labour, and the men were not allowed to
leave the dockyard to take their meals. In addition to
this he learnt from our Consul there that no additional
hands were required at Cherbourg.

INDIA.

The Bombay mail, with ,lates from that part of India

upon DO new pilaw. Perhaps the most striking
occurrence of the last 10 days is the adhesion of
tin, Rajah of Itunlwan to Mr. Wilson's programene.
lii a letter, dated the :tril of May, this influential
noble expressed in clear and forcible langusge
the sense lie entertains of the obligations under
which lie lies to the British Government, and stated
that this feeling induced him to tender his humble
support to the effort made to relieve the finan-
cial difficulties of the State, and that the i 11111 l ediate
cause of his coining forward was the attempt which had
been made to oppose Mr. Wilson's admirable system.
lie e hated the idea that the Permanent Settlement
was over intended to exempt the zemindars from taxa-
tion, and himself, an the greatest wiiiinilar in Bengal,
disclaimed such exemption. Ile concluded by callTra.
sing a hope that his example might induce his country-
men to believe that it was their true policy to surrender
a portion iif their wealth for the security of the whole,
snit by announcing his belief that the system introduced
by Mr. Wilson would endear that gentleman's memory
to India. _ _ .

A telegrain from (leneral lluitulierlain's camp at

which is the capital of the klalosiod Wuzerees, had

ilsys before the British troops had utterly defeated and
broken the army of the Wuzerees, which, strongly post-
ed on the hills and protected in front by stockades, hail
vainly attempted to defend the mountain pass which

To the Editor of the Dorset anatty Express and
Agricultural Gazette.

Dorchester, June 25th.

SIR, —From the general appearance of pasture
in the neighbourhood of Dorchester, I imagine very
little science has been brought to bear upon its pro-
fitable management.
. . .

The first point requiring particular attention is the
"election of that variety of gran which is best suited
to the soil and will be most productive in quantity
and good qualities, for it does not always depend in
the richness of the land, as sometimes very nutrition'
kinds of grass may be grown on very poor land; so
it is important that the nature of the soil be first
ascertained, and then such seed mart be sown au
will best suit it. This will require time and obese-
ration ; so I will give my readers a simple plan that
will generally be successful It is this i—Select the
best piece of natural grass on the farm where
prevenient is wanted, and allow it to seed, then—
during the Spring, or a wet time like the present--
sow about two bushels per acre of this seed over the
poor exhausted grass land, which must either receive
a dressing of manure immediately, or be fed down
very bare and be well trodden by cattle, in order to
bury the seed, which will soon germinate; sad if •
proper selection has been made will soon take the
lead and extirpate the old worn out varieties.
The next thing to be done is to pay proper atten-
tion to the feeding, for it is very ridiculous for
practical men to go on, uncommonly the came, from
year to year, feeding the same field with the same
kind of stock, without caring whether the grass be
too fine or too coarse, and apparently without know-
I lug that sheep will make coarse grams fine, and cow
stock that which is fine, coarser; but so it is, some
men won't think. The good that might be done to
ninny of the sheep downs in the county by feeding
with cows, if only for one year, is beyond calcula•
tion.

Lastly, all grass land should be laid up for soma
time before feeding, which should be done quickly,
for it is unprofitable to allow stock to be a long time
on one piece.

I remain, Sir.
Yana respectfully,
PROFITABLE AGRICULTURE.

management of artificial grasses on arable land.]

AUSTRIA.

The Council of the Empire has from its first sitting
claimed the privilege of examining the projected budget
for Wit, in accordance with the principles of the repre-
sentative system. This motion having been agreed to
by forty-seven against thirteen votes, the Emperor has
consented that in the second bitting a cointuittee of
twenty-one members shall be appointed for examining
the budget. In this committee all the provinces of the
empire will lie represented. Meanwhile the full sittings
of the Council have been adjourned. The Committee if
the Reichsrath will continue the discussion of general
business. The estimates have already been submitted
to the committee.

The Wiener Zeitiotg contains • decree ordering that
the stailthohlership of Hungary will come into effect on
the let July next, at which period the five existing
departments of the Central Government, which were
narrated with the adminiatration of Hungary, will be
abolished. Another decree suspends the district authori-
ties of Moravia and the Provisional Government of
Troppau. Silesi• is to be subordinate to the stailthol-
dership of Moravia, hut the provincial statue of Silesia

The Austrian Government seem also to recognise the
neeesaiiy of doing something to render the administra-
tion of Venetia more acceptable to the people. The
powers of the Central Congregation of Venetia are so
be so far extended as to give that body a deliberative
instead of a mere consultative voice in • great many
questions of administration, while its judicial functions
are no longer to be subordinate, but its decision final.
Only in questions of expenditure will • power be
reserved to the Central Administration at Vienna.
Another decree is also to be issued re-establishing the
neti.msl character of the municipalities of Venetia, and
confirming the ft-Anchises granted in 1815.

debt has presented to the Emperor a general report in

Briaality.—On the •20th of last month two sweet-
hearts were returning from a dance at Wool fair
where the hilarity, both " fast and furious," was kept
up till a late hour, which had such an effect on the
male partner that in a state of exhaustion he fell
asleep by the way side. Hut like a good and faith-
ful guardian, the lady kept watch by his side ; and
white so doing one of those annuals called " men"
came up, and, as is alleged, grossly insulted her.
Nothing daunted. the brave girl seized his shut belt
and gallantly belaboured him with it. The scuttle
appears to nave awakental her lover, who stripped
to fight the intruder, but she, like another Lola
Monte*, would not suffer this, preferring to thrash
the offender unaided. The affray ended by the
keeper (?) (commonly considered a preserver), being
obliged to keep his assailant off at the point of his
gun, the lady retaining her well-earned trophy "the
belt." The case will be brought before the magis-
trates at Warelnun on the 19th instant (to-day)--a
sum/lions having been taken out by the victor
against the keeper, for an indecent assault, and
another by the vanquished against the woman to
recover the belt, under the riduculous plea of its
having been stolen ! The combatants have retained
two able professional advocates "to fight their
battle o'er again," when an amusing colloquy is
expected.
