London, England, 1852-05-19

Quotations of bullion are unchanged, and scarcely
any business is going forward, except in Australian
gold, the frequent arrivals of which afford cmstant
employment to the brokers. There have been two or
three fresh arrivals from the colonies during the last
few days, but the parcels of gold brought in are
small, and the dates very old. Further large sup.'
plies of gold from this quarter are shortly expected.
Attention has been also directed to the recent rise in
the exchange on London at New York, as likely to
lead to a resumption of steady specie remittances to
this side. From several points of the continent ship-
ments of the precious metals are likewise taking place
to London; and the West India mail, due at
Southampton on Thursday, will bring in a
large amount. It will thus be seen that the
flow of the precious metals to this country is still
very strongly marked, and cannot fail to cause a
further accumulation, the more especially as there is
no very decided demand on this market. The prices
at present ruling are thus reported by Messrs. Sharps
and Wilkins :-Bar gold, 775. 9d. per ounce standard.
American gold eagles, 76a. 3d. to 4d. per ounce ; bar
silver, without gold, 4s. 11,1 d. per ounce standard;
ditto, containing gold (all gold above 5 grains in the
pound to be paid for), ss. 0141. per ounce; Mexican
and South American dollars, 4s. 10,id. per ounce;
' platins about lee. per ounce; quicksilver, in bond,
3s. per pound.

SWITZERLAND.

The national council of Switzerland disowned the
railway question in its sitting of the Bth inst. The
first vote decided that the construction of railroads
should be leR to private enterprise and not be under-
taken by the state. Twenty-two members voted in
the minority and 69 in the majority on this question.
The second vote decreed that the lanes should be con-
structed and worked under the authorisation of the
cantons instead of being dealt with as federal
matters. The Suisse remarks that this vote is the
triumph of the cantonal sovereignty over unitari-
anism.

didate, retired on the morning of the nomita'ioo, declaring
that he had been induced to take that course by the per-
suasion of the Very Rev. Dr. Kieran. If Mr. Garden had
persevered, the possibility is that Mr. Jocelyn, the tory,
would have got m ; but at present it does not appear that
he has any chance of success. Mr. Bowyer in his speech

the reception of the land telegraph wires. We cannot
omit stating that the greatest praise is due to the lion. Mr.
Massey, Messrs. Odpin and Griffin, fur their untiring exer-

The election of two knights of the shire to repre-
sent this county is parliament took place at the Castle of
Gukham yesterday (Tuesday), at It o'clock. Rumours of
opposition to one of the late members were rife. and it wu
confidently reported on Monday that Mr. Joha Talbot
Clifton, of Catmore-lodge, near Oakham, would be put is

have existed, and the late members (Sir Gilbert lleatheote

BERKSHIRE.
RETIREMENT OF MR. PUSEY.
There will be no contest for this county, Mr. Purvey
luring dttermined upon resigning. His address to the
electors is as follows :

" Gentlemen,—l am unable to prolong the contest, but,
though defeated, the cause which I have defended hes
won. The farmers have lately received advice from two
opposite parties—the one pointing backward to the flesh
pots of protection, the other urging them to struggle for.
ward through their difficulties on the path of improvement.
Protection has this year fallen ridiculously, not by the as.
sault of its enemies, but by the desertion of its supporters.
Whether the dreams of other relief will be realised a few
weeks will show; but in any ease the farmers will soon dir
cover what blind guides they have followed. Improvement,
on the other hand, has more resources than ever to offer ;
and its loudest opponents, stooping from the heights
of their eloquence, must soon pay to it • silent tri-
bute by consenting to purchase new measures and less un-
couth implements. Chemistry and mechanism have beaten
polities and protection. When I made a stand against
those who were leading the farmers by the wrong road, I
knew what I risked, and had counted the cost. In all
struggles many must fall, but these, too, are satisfied if they
learn that victory is on their side. Deerly feeling the im-
perfection of my own services and your former kindness,
thanking, too, moat warmly those friends who have aided
me to rtse last, I have the honour to be, gentlemen, your
obliged, faithful servant, P. PUSET.—Posey, July 12."

This was an action to refers or damages for • breach of
promise of marriage. The damages were laid at 6001.
Mr. E. James, Q.C. and Mr. Hawkins, were for the
plaintiff; Mr. H. Chambers,; U.C,, was foe the defendant.
The parties in this action were Emma Louisa Oldaker,
the daughter of a publican at Harpenden, who was the
plaintiff; and the dewas a farmer, who was said to
have considerable ezpostetime, living in the Naas neigh-
bourhood. It appeared that the defendant bad been in the
habit of going to the Imam of the plaintiff's father to
" smoke his cigar," and be asmonorsed attention to
the plaintiff in 1848, end from that peeW~a iseasiderable in-
timacy sprung up between them, and at , with the
consent of the plaintiff's parents, the y was died
for the 11th February, 1811. A few days before the
lith, the defendant sent the following letter to the
plaintiff :—" My dear Emma,-1 am very sorry I said
to you what I did this morning, but I cannot make it
convenient to marry now.—Yours truly, Glom)! DAVIS."
And a very short time after this he married another young
woman. It appeared that on the evening of the same day
the letter was sent the defendant went to the house of the
plaintiff's father, and a regular scene took place, and the
defendant waa represented to have fainted away in the bed-
room of the plaintiff, there being a suggestion that he was a
little the worse fur liquor at the time. In the course of the
case it was stated that after the defendant sent the letter
referred to, a second letter was sent by him renewing his
promise ; but this letter was not produced, and there was
some evidence to show that after the original letter the
parents of the plaintiff appeared to consider the match as
broken off.

PARMA.

Letters from Parma, in the Piedmontese Gazette,
of the 10th, state that the negotiations between
Modena, Parma, and Austria, for the acceesion of
the two former states to the Austrian customs aye•
tem, are likely to come to a speedy conclusion.
Austria guarantees the present customs revenue of
those two states, viz., 1,050,000 fr. for Parma, and
1,150,000 fr. for Modena, as a minimum; nevertheless
the Duke of Modena will continue to export Carrara
marble at its present rate.

of view, and the second to advise on tho resources
available for their execution. A line, it is stated, is to
be commenced forthwith to connect Szolnok with
l)ebreczin. The Emperor has ordered surveys for
lines to be made between Pnspek-Ladony and
Grosswardein, and between Szegedin and Temesvar.
The line from Czegled to Szege, now in course of
construction, is to be finished so u to be ready for

also an imperial ordonnance for the prolongation of
the Lombardo-Venetian Railway from Treviso to

Late on Monday evening Lord Norreys arrived in
Oxford, and met the committee who had put him in nomi-
nation for the representation of the county. His lordship
repudiated their acts, and declared that if elected he would
vacate the seat on the emembling of the new parliament.
In spite of this the committee 'spewed their determination
to carry on the contest; and in consequence of this his lord-
ship issued the following handbill : "To the Freeholders of
the County of Oxford.—Oentlemen,—l have just received
intelligence that I was placed in nomination for the
representation of the county this morning. I most
respectfully but earnestly request thee gentlemen who
have so kindly interested themselves on my behalf
to desist from any further proceedings; and I trust that
all my friends will abstain from recording their votes
in my favour, for, if elected, circumstances will compel
me to vacate my scat on the assembling of the new parlia-
ment.—l have the honour to be, gentlemen, your obliged
and faithful servant, Norreye—Oxford, Meaty Evening,
July 12, 1852."—This was followed by another from the
committee, who stated that the contest would be continued,
and that if Lord Norreys was elected and vacated his seat
they had another liberal ready to supply the vacancy.

This is at the rate of nearly 300 waggons per diem.

OF LORD NAAS.

Lord Derby's Chief Secretary for Ireland has been
signally defeated. The electors of the Irish agricul-
tural county of Kildare would not send him back as
a member of the protectionist cabinet, to represent
them in parliament ; and being at length thoroughly
convinced of this their determination. he has wisely
saved himself and his friends from the disgrace of
being sent away from tho hustings in a ridiculous
minority, and withdrawn in time from the contest.
Mr. M'Carthy, ono of Ins liberal candidates for
I Cork county, has withdrawn from the contest, leaving
the field to the only remaining liberal, Mr. Scully,
and to Mr. Frewen, the protectionist, who, under
present circumstances, is not likely to go to the poll.
Mr. Scully may be considered as the nominee of the
Roman catholic clergy of the diocese of Cloyne.
There are three candidates named for Galway
borough, in the event of a dissolution—the present
sitting members and Lord Dunkellin. At a meeting
of the electors, held on Wednesday, a resolution in
favour of Mr. O'Flaherty was carried with acclama-
tion, but ono pledging support to Mr. J. Blake was
received with marks of disapprobation from a great
many.
't he following remarkable statement with reference
to the representation of the county of Down, appears
in the N"rtheris Whim of yesterday:
From what has appeared in the newspapers of the day, '
and from the more explicit statement made by Lord Leslie-
rcagh, it is pretty :sti noisily known that the Marquis of
Londonderry hail withdrawn hi+ parliamentary support
from his son, and had transferred it to his more distant re-
lative, Mr. Her, of Ballynahinch. The noble marquis's
reasons far doing so are now very generally known—
namely, that Lord Castlereagh refused to set as
hi+ " nominee," and to vote in parliament for and
against certain measures specified by his father. All
this has been very plainly put forth in the ablo and en-
lightened address of Lord Castlereagh to the electors of the
county, published in this and other newspapers within the
last few days. But It seems that the same dictatorial mis-
sive which was issued to Lord Castlereegh has also been
transmitted to Mr. Her ; and that he is no more inclined to
swallow the test than his noble relative. Mr. Her refuses
to go before the county, and to claim the suffrages of the
electors, as any one's " nominee." Ile repudiates the
noble marquis's assumed power of nominating and return-
ing him to the House of Common., under the stated condi-
tions, and intends to come forth and stand on independent
grounds. This is manly ; and only that he is a protec-
tionist, and unfavourable to a fair settlement of the
land question, we are not sure that we might not give him
a lift.
Several students of Trinity College were brought
up before the magistrates yesterday, charged with
riots and assaults on tho police on the preceding

of small fines.
