have been delivered of did not appear
like a new-born infants But on evidence
so conflicting the jury most have bed
extreme difficulty in arriving at • verdict.
What probably decided them Wag a emlfollion
which Mrs. GRDNEY was proved to have made.
Fifteen months after the supposed:birth dm' ad-
mitted to her maid that the child was not hers, but
had been procured to deceive her husband on sc•
count of his unkindness. In 1858 she again con-
fessed the fact to Mr. WALLsa, a clergyman. She
was then very feeble, broken down with the disease
of which she died • month or two after. Her ex-
planation to him was that she had been delivered
of a still-born child, and had substituted for it the
living child which now passed for her own. But
this statement is itself not free from difficulty, and
in many points at least is irreconcileable with the
case made against the child in the first part of the
evidence. If there had really been • still birth,
the fact would account for Dr. FARRIS treating
her as • woman recovering from her confinement,
but it would render nugatory the evidence of Dr.
GRANTHAM, and the evidence of the woman who
had attended her, and who could discover no
symptoms of pregnancy. Nor is such a state of
things consistent with the theory that before the
birth took place LYDIA FLITCHLR'S child had been
secured and brought under Mrs. GOSS'S cloak in
readiness. No suggestion was made to explain
these discrepancies. It would seem, therefore,
that if the child was really supposititious, Mrs.
GEDNEY'S statement that she had been delivered
of a still-born child must have been untrue ; yet
if we reject part of the confession the weight
of the remainder is materially diminished.
On the whole, while we accept the
verdict of the jury as one which, being compelled
to choose, they might reasonably return, as having
perhaps the greatest verisimilitude of the two pro-
positions, it is impossible not to admit that the
question still remains shrouded in doubt and diffi-
culty. The celebrated Jacobite story of the
" warming-pan'' was scarcely more obscure in
ru-
mour than the history of the poor child that has
been brought up as Mrs. GEDNEY'S legitimate off-
spring remains even after a judicial investigation.
Nor is it impossible that, as in the DOUGLAS case,
Ito which we have already referred, a second tri-
bunal may, upon a fuller investigation, ultimately
see grounds for reversing the judgment of the
first.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, NoliaNG.
Grant's army has returned to its former posi-
tion. It has been ascertained that the country
around the Southside Railroad is strongly fortified.
During the movement the Confederates on the
Boyltou plank-road charged the right flank of the
2nd corps at a point where the connexion between
the 2nd and sth corps was not formed. The New
Pink Times corresponient asserts this forced Grant
to withdraw his troops to a safer position. During
Butler's movement General Weitzel assaulted the
Confederate position on the Williamsburg road, but
was repulsed with the loss of nearly two brigades.
Grant lost 1,500 men, and captured 800 prisoners.
On Sunday the Confederates penetrated into
Grant's lines for some distance between the 2nd and
sth corps, taking numerous prisoners. They after-
wards charged the breastworks, but were repulsed.
Hood has attacked Decatur, Alabama, and been
repulsed with the loss of four guns and 100 pri-
soners. He has retreated westward along the south
side of the Tennessee river.

A large force under Fcrrest has been concentrated
on the line of the Tennessee river to attack Padu-
cah and Columbus, Kentucky.
The Confedera tea are actively reorganising in West
Tennessee. The Confederates under Vaughan have
been routed at Morristown, East Tennessee, with
the loss of several guns and numerous prisoners.
TLe Federals have destroyed the Confederate
ram Albermarle.

At a mass meeting of merchants and bankers,
held at Wall-street iu favour of BlTlellan, resolu-
tions were passed declaring that the financial and
commercial interests demand a change in the ad-

nounced.

The war democracy have held a meeting in New
York. General Dix read an address refusing to
support the Chicago nominee or platform, and re-
commending the reorganisation of the democracy.
The military commission have condemned Dona-

more, to imprisonment for life.
President Lincoln has proc:aimed the Nevada
Territory a state of the Union.
The military at Buffalo are under arms, being
apprehensive of a raid from Canada.
A serious political riot has taken place at Phila-
delphia during a democratic procession, and nume-
rous arrests were made.
The National Democratic Committee have issued
an address stating that Mr. Lincoln's unscrupulous
supporters are determined to employ for his re-
election a system of violence and fraud unknown in
American history. The committee urge the people
to let nothing prevent their casting a democratic
vote.

Governor Seymour has appointed commissioners
to proceed to Washington to inquire into the arrest
of the New York State agents, and to take such
action as will vindicate the State laws.
The commandant of the New York State militia'
has issued an order enjoining vigilance to prevet.t
Canadian raids. He denounces the attempt of
General Dix to take the supervision of the elections
as dangerous to the public peace. The Federal
government is charged with no duty relating to
the elections. The militia will repress any at-
tempts to disturb the peace, and if necessary will
prevent interference with the rights of persons to
attend the polls.
The Governor of Kentucky has announced that
if military interference is attempted at the election,
and there are sufficient citizens at the polls to
arrest the offenders, the sheriffs will take them in
charge. If the military force is too large to arrest,
the election will be mijourned.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.

Grant's repulse on the 27th ult. was more serious
than at tirst represented. On the left he threw
forward three entire corps, the 9th, sth, and 2nd,
with the expectation of carrying or flanking the en-
tire Confederate works covering the South Side Rail-
way. In the sortie made by the Confederates they
interposed a strong force between the sth and 2nd
corps, doubled up the right flank of the latter, and
drove it back in confusion, capturing many prisoners.
The Federal loss, iu killed and wounded, was 1,500.
General Butler's operations on the right were
equally unsuccessful. Both the 10th and 18th corps
were repulsed with heavy loss in attacks upon what
were considered weak points in the enemy's lines.
Two brigades were cut ofl from retreat by the
fire of the Confederate batteries. They were forced
to throw themselves upon the ground to escape
annihilation, and were captured in that potation.
Both wings of the army returned, under cover of
i the night, to their original position.

On the 30th ult. the Confederates made a night
attack upon Grant, penetrated bis lines to a consi-
derable distance on the left, capturing 400 pri-
soners ; but, failing to make any impresbiou on the
centre, returned to their works.

severely criticised at the time. It is surmised that
his mission is to exercise surveillance over
a board which may be disposed at a given
moment to use its great financial influence
in such a manner as to damage the government.
A great deal of this may be conjecture, but it is
certain that no good reason was ever avowed for
putting M. Rouland, who had been all his life a
barrister, or a minister unconnected with financial
aff&irs, at the head of the bank, and setting him to
serve an apprenticeship to finanse at the age of sixty
and upwards.

The movement for restricting the working day

that most of the leading master manufacturers in
Paris have agreed to the change.

Berlin in the coarse of last week. Among the artistes he
has succeeded in engaging for the coming season the name
of Malls. Lucca is mentioned. He has also secured the set..

Donato, who, with his black servant Marcellino, has been
the chief novelty in Berlin during the past autumn.

The betrothal of the rich niece of Madame Erard,
MO°. Schaeffer, with M. de Franqueville, auditor of the
Conseil d'Etat, bas just taken place at the Chateau de la
Muette, once the residence of Marie Antoinette. Here the
unfortunate Antoinette first slept on reaching France, when
betrothed to the Dauphin. Among the crowds that thronged
to gaze through the yrilla of the park at the lovely and
stately Marie, during her promenades in the picturesque
avenues of La Ithette, was a young, smart, clever Aleacien
—Emil. This youth, having survived the vicissitudes of his
early draggles in mechanics, inventing and perfecting
various machines. and by his bra-as for the repetition
touch in the action of the pianoforte, and the double
action of the harp, ultimately enjoyed the special patronage
of Marie Antoinette. After her cruel death Erard became
the owner of that unhappy Queen's favourite residence,
►nd bequeathed his fortune and La Muette to his nephew,
Pierre. Since the decease of the nephew, Madame Erard,
retire, resides at La ?duette during the grimmer and autumn.

twice a week the most distinguished man of science, litera-

lions of francs has been offered to purchase La Mustte for the
residence of the Imperial Prince ; but the present owner is
not likely to part with it, associated es it is with so many
events of family interest. The niece, it is said, will have a
Jur of a million francs.

Letters from 3;ilan speak of some highly suc-

species of fuel called Moro peat (torLa Moro), which has
been employed instead of coal upon the railways from
Milan to Bergamo, to Loco°, and to Pavia. This new pre-
pezation issiiid to yield no black smoke, and to be of easier
management than coal, besides presenting the advantage
that the material of which it is composed is furnished in
large quantities by the northern and central provinces of
Italy, 'share peat beds aboaad.

A new quarter of Pompeii is now being brought

Le Sport, the great literary expositor of the

teeds to the canine species. In the Bois de Rootage.) •
fair exquisite can never be seen without her remarkable
lapdog, and the same sumptuary law demands that the
said animal should appear every day with • new and various
coloured coat. An individual who, in fifteen years, made
• rapid fortune, has discovered the means of giving colour
I to the hairy skins of animals, so that one day • dog has an
outward green appearance, the next day blue, another
violet, and so on. The health of the animal thus operated
upon is by no means injured, but, according to the Sport,
his temper is changed and corresponds with his particular
hue. Thus, it is asserted, • red dye makes him capricious,
a green enlivens him, chocolate tints render him gloomy and
sorrowful, whilst blue has the power of exciting him to
mischief.

A Paris correspondent writes :—" During the
past few weeks there has bees as unusual number of musical
Dotabilities in Paris. Costa is here, staying at the Grand
Hotel. Fetis has returned from Brussels to superintend the
production of ' L'Africaine.' Balfe and Wallace, as already
announced, are also hers for the winter. Benedict has
been in Paris, sad, it is rid, will return to produce his last
&iglu& opera at the Lvrique. Ernst has left for Nine. At
au evening party receotly, the Brothers Holmes, with Ney
and Jacquard, played his quartetts. There were present
Berlioz :i. Heller, d'Ortkrue, the Brothers Herz, Ella, the
director of the Musical Uniou of hoodoo, and several
musical amateurs, who were enthusastic in their admira-
tion of the compositions. and Ernst received their applause
with evident emotion. The Brothers Holmes played in a
masterly style. They are staying in Paris for the musical

BARTLETT T. LEWIS.—Mr. Butt, M.P., occupied
the whole of Wednesday in addressing the juiry for the
plaintiff in the case of '•Bartlett r. Lewis. Dr. Bence
Jams, of London. a medical attendant of the defendant,
L who had a consultation with Dr. Stokes, was examined,
and Meted that it would cost Mr. Lewis his life to be ex-
amined. Yesterday morning, at 11 o'clock, the Chief Baron
commenced his charge to the jury, and coocluded about 4
o'clock. The jury retired. and in about half an hour re-
turned, bringing io a verdict for the defendant on all the
issues, with rid. mats. This established the validity of
Mr. Lewis's certificate in bankruptcy, which was impugned
on the ground of concealment of property.
A MURDER .1? BERLIN.—The trial of Louie
Grothe, Marie Fischer, the widow Quinche, and the carter
Rosskamm has just been concluded at Berlin. The first
three were charged with the murder of Professor Nicholas
Gri,gy. a native of Nancy, aged :a, teacher of the French
language ; the latter with limrhig concealed articles which
be knew to have been stolen. Roskamm was acquitted.
The first three were the very scum of society. The widow
quieche is known to have been vanished for various offences.
In her younger deys she had bees a regular prostitute.
Marie Fischer is a icons woman of 2.1, serving the wages of
Ammo, and L.ntis Grothe (son of the widow Quiuebe by la
former husband, or rather lover), a lost character, living on
those gains. The deceased visited these wriatolied peopie in
the cellar is which they lived, and was murdered by them
and thrown into the river Spree. The jury returned the
verdict of "guilty." That Window tjuioche sad Marie
Fischer bad beets made acquainted with the plan formed by
Grothe of killing Gregy is not probable ; neverthel,m, they
were guilty of having assisted Grothe io the performance
of that act of murder. Moreover, it Ins not been proved
that their participation was not an essential one. The seu-
tame of death was pronounced upon ell the three prim:men.

The petitioner, the daughter of Lieut.-C.d. had
three brothers who were captains in the royal o.,‘a Ib,
marriage took place at Stoke, near Plymouth, on tn. 11th
of April, 1847, and the cohabitation lasted till ..%•! C,4y,

The petitioner said—lmmediately after our marris.ts we
proceeded to the Brazils. We have had four chrldr,.. of
whom two are living. My eldest boy is 15 years of are, and
my youngest 10. My husband's temper was always v; lent,
In August, 18.57, when we were at Rio, we bad a quarrel on
the subject of Madame Lonesome. I had awakened
the morning and found myself alone in bed. I went is
of my husband and found him with her. I wished to to
his mother ; but he took my bonnet from me, stamped on
it, and threw his boots at me ; they braised my sho Ayr.
Later in the same year we were living in Alfred.rlace,
Bedford-square. One day, while I was ill in bed there, he
threw his hat at me. la April, 18.18, we were list; at
23, Upper Gloucester-place. One day when Lis....tuant
Edwards was dining with us, the respondent threw
a decanter of port wine at me. I rani sit-
ting at the opposite end of the table. The
decanter struck my shoulder, and broke against my chair.
That was because I had desired Madame Labeaume rams
not to be mentioned at my table. Next year the respondent
struck me with his fiat on my mouth. That was because
my servant bad refused to receive some fowls whntl, had
been sent from Mrs. Clifton's. My husband wished to
discharge her on the spot, and I resisted his der.re.
'lb. same year be placed his fist against cs
nose and pressed ray head against the wall. He aleastat
in my face. In October, before be last went to lire, s
gentleman called while he was out. The gentleman law
me, and when I told my husband that the gentleman had
seen me he was very angry. I said it was usual for
gentleman who called to see the lady of the boner.
The respondent took up the knife sod threatened to
throw it at me it I did not bold my tongue. He
has also attempted to alarm me with his mote' though to
knew that I was subject to a heart disease. On another
occasion he pursued me into the closet, and broke in the
pane of glass upon me. While living with bins he eu in
the habit of using very bad language to me and to tbs
servants.

_
Crons-exammed—He threw his boob at me in the hours
of Madame Labemune, where we sere staying at a riot.
She was in the drawing-room adjoining. He was very angry.
I will swear that he threw the boom at me, and did not
merely throw them snide. Will swear that be did not
throw the decar ter on the other occasion I have mentioned
at Lieutenant Edwards. Lieutenant Edwards was sitting at
my right hand, and the decanter struck my left shoulder.
I continued to live with my husband till he Wt me to go co
his laat voyage, in April, 1863.
Re-examined—He bad made a promise of reformation in
the previous October, and I promised to forgive him if
nothing more came to my knowledge to give me pain. I
knew nothing at that time of his ameesion with Ann Ba-
yard, but he had been cautioned by my sister against her.
The witness was entirely corroborated be Lieut. Eiwarda
Dr. Spinks said that after Lieutenant E twards evidence
Captain Portugal would, by his (the learned civilian's)
advice leave his cassia the hands of the court.

Sir J. P. Wilde said there could be no doubt that the
respondent bad treated his wife in a most uomanly way, sad
in a way that the law called cruelty. The adultery had
also been clearly made out, and there must therefore be s
decree ni.i, with cost..
