tain the Hoc. A.A. Cochrane, C.B.,arnved in third ternoon ;
arid the Hector, 2ti, iron screw-ship, Captain G. ts.
Pmedy, C.B. expected to-night. The Warrior will

The klalacca, 17, screw sloop, was ducked this rooming.
The Aurora, Xi, screw frigate, Captain Sir F. L. It'Ciim
tack, steamed into harbour this afternoon.

The Sparrowhawir, 4, screw vessel, was brought alongside
the new jetty this morning, to ship her guar.
Tue gunnery experiments on board the Excellent, con-
ducted under the supervision of the Armstrong and Whit-
worth committee, were resumed this afternoon. The
member of the committee present were General Lumley
(oresident), General Taylor, Colonel Ormsby, Captain
Wilson, and Captain Gwyn; It.N. There were also
present Major Dyer (secretary), Mr. Whitworth, and Captain
Noble, who represented Sir William Armstrong. The
Whitworth cartridges to be need in these experiments
not having yet CODA to hand the experiments
were not carried out in accordance with the original
programme, but were as follows : Twelve rounds
1 from the Whitworth muzzle-loader were fired in
eight minutes; twelve from the Armstrong wedge
breech-loader in ti min. 45 sec., and twelve from the Arm-
etroog shunt gun in ft min. 56 sec. The old smooth-bore
(is-pounder was then put to the test, and twenty rounds
independent tiring at a target were discharged in 14 min.
4 sec. The same number of rounds were afterwards fired
without any attempt at accuracy of aim, but simply to
ascertain the comparative results with rapid firing, and the
whole were completed in ft min. 5 sec. The guns were all
manned by experienced and well-trained gunners, and the
rapidity, steadiness, and regularity with which they per-
formed their duties were highly creditable to themselves, as
well as to the system which has brought them to such a
high state of efficiency.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
SHERIFFS' COURT.—Nov. 1.
(Before Mr. Commix.iooer Kerr.)

BUDD= V. 7.10L1811..7- CIMUOVS IIaBILL•OII..LAW QUISTION

In this nee the plaintiff sued a Mrs. Elisabeth Eoglish
for rent, and when the are was called on the defendant
stepped into the box.
His Honour—How do you m►ke out this case, plaintiff'
Plaintiff—She occupied rooms in my house, and has not
paid me the whole rent.
Defendant—l am a married woman.
Plaintiff—No, she is not. She has married two brothers,
and therefore the second murisge u void.

His Hooonr—That would be w, Mrs. English. You see
that by the Eoglish law you are forbidden to marry your
Drat husband's brother.

Defendaot- I was lawfully and regularly married to him.
Plaiatiff—Were you married to him abroad?
Defendant—Oh, dear, no. We were married in Eng-
land.

Plaintiff—Then the marriage is not recognised here.
Defendant—My second husband was not exactly my
first husband's brother, but more like a brother-in-law.
(Laughter.)
His Honottr—Well, perhaps there might not be so much
objection to that.
Plaintiff—But the husbands were not brothers-in-Law.
As I am informed, they were of the same name, and
brothers.

Him Honour—Well, let u see. Nov, Mrs. Eoglish, what
was the name of your first bookend !
Defendant—Robert Hall English, and be died in 1850.
Hu Hoooor—And whet was the name of the second
husband ?

Defendant—James English. I married him in June,
1863.

Hu Honour—Well, were they brothers?
Defendant—No ; they were like brothers-in-law.
His Honour—How wee that'

Defeodsot—Old Mr. Eoglieh, the father, wee twioe mar-
ried, and his first wife bore him my first husband, and his
second wife boas him my second husband.
This answer caused no little surprise, calculation, and
argument io court.
His Hosour—Then. you see, Mrs. English, you hare
married two half-brothers.
Defeodaot—Yes, I think that is it. . . .

His Honour (cOnsidering)—Well, Ido not know. I do
not think it will do, Mrs. Eagliob. but it really is s very
nice question in canon law. The question will be, "Can a
women marry her first husband's balf•brother ?" In my
opinion it is prohibited. It seems very hard, Mrs. English,
but I am afraid you cannot set up your marriage as e de.
fence to this action.

Defendant—l had no idea that the marriage was not a
good ooe.
A young man hers stepped forward, and said be was the
son of the old gentleman known as the second husband. He
complained of the manner in which the plaintiff had goo*
on with the case, and with some little warmth of temper
said that the old gentleman had been seen, and yet
plaintiff had the unblushing effrontery to come forward and
say be had promised to par the money.
His Honour—So far as the case has cone I bare nothing
to do with the old gentleman at all. The only matter for
me to consider is whether defendant is married, sod if such
marriage is a good one. Ido not think that is law a wo-
man can marry her first husband's half•brother, and so I
am bound to decide that defendant cannot plead her mar.
riage. However, as it does seem to be a hard case upon
Mrs. English, who might have fancied it was a good mar.
nage, I will let the case stand over, so that the parties
mar come to some arrangement as to the mode of payment.
Verdict for the plaintiff.

THE POLICE COURTS.
MANSION-ROUSE.

A respectable.looking elderly man, named Demean
Af*Lron Wright, was Nerd at the bar yesterday, in cus-
tody of Detective Sergeant Spite], before Mr. Alderman
Stone, who sat for the Lord Mayor, charged with conspiring
with Charles FAtoo de Witt, already in custody, in eodea.
Touring to obtain, and obtaining from Mears. Garcia
Rubet and Co., by means of false pretences, a quantity of
wine, and also with forging and uttering several bills of
exchange, with intent to defraud.
Mr. Sleigh, instructed by Mr. Chidley, appeared to prose-
cute ; Mr. Waller, for the Universal Mercantile Association,
73, Cbeapside, who are interested in the are, appeared to
watch the proceedings.
Mr. Sleigh said the prisoner bad been apprehended
through the exertions of Sergeant Spital on the previous
evening at Nottiog.bill, and was charged with conspiring
with Charles Eaton do Witt in defrauding Marrs. Robot of
a quantity of wince, and with uttering, knowing them to
be forged, several bills of exchange. The prisoner's name
bad not been mentioned in the course of the previous pro-
ceedings for obvious reasons ; but Spital had succeeded in
tracing him from Liverpool to the spot where be had ap.
preherided him. When told the charge, the prisoner said
he should plead guilty, and be should do all he could to
make a complete restitution of the property ; and Mr.
Sleigh said be might observe that the prosecutors had since
the last examination had G 4 warrants sent to them &now,
measly. After calling Sergeant Spital, who would speak
to the observation made by the prisoner, he should ads
for a remised until de Witt was brought up, when both
prisoners could be tried together.
Sergeant Spiral having been examined, the prisoner was
remanded.

Mr. Woolush told him that the female had informed him
she bad resided seventeen years at a stretch in the parish.
If that was the case surely the pariah authorities had no
power to remove her.
The relieving officer understood that she had resided •
loos time io and out of the parish, but she had broken her
settlement by going jute the country bopping. The clerk
to the gmrdiaus was positive that they hd power to pus
. . .

Mr. Woolrych uked if he admitted she had resided un-
broken two years in the parish ; and the relieving officer
replied that he did, but she had since broken the settlement,
and all he had to do with her was to pass herb Ireland.
Mr. Woolrych was of opinion that they had so legal
power to pees her after pinion over three years' settlement
in this pariah. Is fact that rendered her irremovable.
The relieviog officer iodignantly disputed his worship's
law, and said ss she would not be removed he should have
nothing more to do with the females. If they were willing
to go to Ireland he would take asre of them, and pus them
directly.
Mr. Woolrych told him it wu clear she was irremovable,
and u they refused to be passed he supposed he would fur-
ther assist them.

The relieving *Soar said he was acting under the orders
of the guardians, whom he knew to be right, therefore be
should not further assist her.

Mr. Woolrych did not think his conduct very creditable
under the circumstances, and as the poor creature seemed
in want he should grant herbs. out of the poor box for her
present requirements.
The poor woman thanked his wonbip for his kindness,
and left the court with her child.
