MADRID.—The Madrid mails /the 28th have
arrived. The Queen refused to receive the resigna-
tion of the Minister of Finance, and Senor llertran de
I.is has been induced to retain his post fur the
present.

ITALY.—By advisee received from Bologna
we learn that the Neapolitan auxiliaries under Gen.
Pepe, who had refused to obey the counter orders
sent by the King of Naples, were in full march on
Padua and Vicenza, where they would have arrived
ere this.

The strength of this reinforcement would necessarily
produce a material change in the relation of the
belligerent parties at Bologna. The Neapolitan corps
assembled at Ferrara on the 23rd, had passed the Po,
and marched upon Vieenzs. These forces, combined
with 3,000 Roman troops of the line, under Gen. Du-
rando, 3,000 Roman volunteers, under Gen. Ferrari,
and the Venetian auxiliaries, would make up a total
force of 20,000 men, which, united with the Pied-
montese army under Charles Albert, would give an
entire available force of 70,000 men, being nearly
one-half more in numbers than the entire amount of
the Austrian forces in Northern Italy.
A bulletin from the head-quarters of Somme Cam-
pagna, of 27th May, says :
Our batteries having caused great damage to the besieged,
and our trenches advancing rapidly, the King, to save the
effusion of blood at Pesehiera, hu sent Major La bisimora
a flag of truce to demand the surrender of the place.
The commandant tithed permission t,t confer with itridetekV•
This was refuted ; but an armistice of some hours w
agreed on, at the expiration of which a definitive answer
was to be given. Tne rt suit is now expected Peschters
wants provisions, and our trenches are so far advanced as
soon to open the Lit aching batteries.

NAPLES.—Advices received from Naples by Mar-
seilles announce active immures taken on the part of
the Sicilians to reinforce the Celabrian insurgents,
and to furnish tin m with supplies of arms and ammu-
nition. The steamer Vesuvio, which was to have kit
Palermo for MarseiHee, had been detained by the
Sicilian government for the transport, as was sup-
posed, of troops to the Neapolitan territory.
The first movement of the Celabrian insurgents was
upon Reggio and Calanzaro, where they would have
received the Sicilian rtinforcements and supplies, and
from thence it was expected they could march upon
Naples.
Ily private letters from Naples we learn that
the troops engaged in the affair or the 15th amounted
to 24.000 men, viz.: Four Swiss regiments, 6,400 ;
two regiments of gendarmerie, 3,200; two of the royal
guard, 4,803 ; two of the line, 4,800 ; one of the ma-
rine, 1,600; four battalions of pioneers, 1,600; two
ri gitnents of hussars, 800 ; one regiment of lancers,
400 ; and one regiment of dragoons, 400. They were
supported by the artillery of the forts.

----------
Mr. BENTHAM calls a dyslogistk meaning, and it tells th
against any measure to which, asinvolving some cen- cm
tralauthonty, there is • pretence for applying the dr
word, to label it with "centralisation." The fact is
that there is a centralisation necessary for the full ti
efficiency of municipal institutions; and, on the other fr
hand, there is no doubt that a centralisation a
which ti I
excludes the agencies of local government is groat
mischief. The problem for the statesman is to cora- S
o
bine the two so as to have as much
free-
dom
of local agency as is suitable and no more a
of central authority than is needful for uniform
action, for the equal dispenion of benefit, for i
the exercise of power beyond a local jurisdiction, for i
supervision and control which all local authorities i
seed. As with all political problems, we can only
hope to approximate more or less to the perfect com- ;
bination of centralisation and local government and 1
the degrees in which the two elements ought to be t
blended will vary with different subject-matters of
legislation.
The fable of the mutiny of the members against the
belly is a story of foolish fear of centralisation. Under
a sound system of centralisation, the central
feeds, invigorates, sustains, as it is in return fed and
, strengthened by, numerous surrounding agencies.
i The second report of the metropolitan sanitary
commiasion furnishes us with an illustration, vry
convenient, as regards the agitation which is beeing
" carried on by the authorities of the City against Lord
Mom' Fries bill, of the dependence of one district on
n others for health, and the little that could be done
ble
for the health of the City, supposing the beet possi
will and perfect wisdom reigned in the City municipal

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

llitilege at NW Phu+ In Term, at Guildhall, befuee Mr. Baton Parke
and a oununon jury.
TAYLOR O. CVRTisa.—SLANnkft.—Both taintiff and
defendant are meat salesmen in Newgiate-mar et. On the
21st December last the defendant went down to Leighton
d, in Buckinghamshire, whore he saw Mr. James
Iledges, carrier, of Aylesbury, and made use of the slan-
derous expressions oontplained of. After asking, "Do you
do anything with Taylor ?" defendant added, " I would
advise you it, tto be very busy in sending to him (Taylor),
for I don't think that things are quite right. I have heard
something from pretty good authority ; but don't ask me to
say more —that u in confidence." The slander, although
spoken in confidence. soon reached the can of the plaintiff,
who immediately went down to Ducks, Beds, Oxfordshire,
and the surrounding districts, taking with him 8001. in
bank notes. The plaintiff then called on every person
with whom he had tranucted Dulness, and stated that if
they had any pecuniary demand to make on him he was
ready to satisfy it; but no,demsnd was made.—Mr. Cock-
burn, who stated the case for the plaintiff, said that the ac-
tion had been brought in consequence of the refusal of the
defendant to apollse—not with the view of recovering
damages, although the plaintiff was in a position to MT*
special damages ; but in ardor to vindicate his character as a
tradesman. All that the plaintiff required was a retractation
of the slanderous words.—Mr. J. Hedges, of Aylesbury, car
tier; Mr. W. Bedsit, Mr. Heywood, of Oxford; and Ma.
Phillips, of Thame, proved the (seta above stated ; and it
appeared that alter the s'anderous words complained of were
used, Mr. Heywood, who had directed several hampers to
the plaintiff, erased the address, and substituted the name of,
and forwarded them to, the delendaat.—Mr. Hutufrey, for
the defendant, stated that he was instructed to offer the
most ample apology for having spoken the words complained
of. There never existed any grounds for the statement, and
no one more recrettad the words uttered than the defendant
himself.—Mr. Cockburn said, although the plaintiff had
been put to very emuiderable expense in travelling round the
country, to ascertain to what extent the slander had been
propagated, he should at once accept the apology, as the
plaintiff's only object was the vindication of his character.
—The learned judge considered the course adopted by the
di fendant a very proper one.—lt was then arranged that a
verdict should be taken fur the plaintiff. Damages, 51.
Verdict accordingly,

crux THE VENDOR —Mr. Cotterill appeared in support of

ing circumstances: Certain land had been taken for the pur-
poses of the railway from a Mr. Brown, of Norfolk, and the

under the Lands Clauses Act. An agreement was solos.-
, guently come to, by which Mr Brown consented to sell his
land to the company for 2bol. The conveyance was exe-
cuted and the money paid. The object of this petition was,
that the deposit of 1.0001. might be ordered to he paid back

in this case the vendor had not been served with the petition,
but there was an affidavit made by the solicitor tothe railway

LONDON, SAT URDA Y, JUNEIO.
Wa are truly sorry to see that the leading journal
of England, as the Times calls itself, has so very
beggarly an opinion of the middle classes of England,
and, indeed, it might be added, of all classes of
Englishmen. None of these, according to the rimes,
care for anything, or will struggle for anything,
except they have "a private and personal interest "
to serve. Public spirit, disinterestedness, patriotism,
love of justice, respect of fairness—all these senti-
ments are mere gammon. The French may entertain
them, or the German, or any other nation you please ;
but such things are quite misplaced in an English
vocabulary.
Such is the profound and courteous reason given ,
by the Times for the failure which it confidently
prognosticates of the new reform movement. It has
ne hope whatever of that movement, although it ad-

from a • (tauter th which they have been re-
garded with evident suspicion and displeasure,
at all events prevails throughout the railway
interest : and it cannot be said that any of the seta of
the present government, whether in the measures for
controlling, or in the treatment of proposals for en- 1
eouraging railways, have been calculated to produce,
any other. It most be plainly added that, even in
cur present calamities, the pressure of which seems to
weigh on all but ministerial mindto deal with
s, the go-
verning body seems much more prone
the difficulties of the time by imposing new burdens,
or at least keeping up the old ones at their full strain,
than by studying direct means of relief, or oven set-
ting manfully to work at the just and economical
ordering ot the state receipts and expenses. Nor,
unless the views at hthd-quarters are materially
changed on the subject of advances to useful works,
since the proposal to relieve distress in Ire-
land by such means was absolutely rejected,
is it likely that similar plena, from Eng-
land or Scotland, will meet with a very
favourable reception. That some change, how-
ever, would be desirable in the policy hitherto
pursued on this subject may well be believed ; anared,
as ,ve live in times when great and pressing events
teaching the urgency of change in many
things, it
may he that even Chancellors of Exchequer may be
brought to discover the necessity ot trying what can
be done, beyond the usual routine, to improve the
condition of the labouring classes of this country.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

Nisi Paws, at Westminster.—Before the Chief Baron and a common
rry. CIADDERER V. HAIN6.— DISCOURTINO.—This wa
an action to recover the amount of a bill of exchange, and
excited very great interest in a crowded court. There were
a great many pleas upon the record, but the princ; pal one was
that the acceptance to the bill had been obtained from the de-
fendant by fraud. From the statement of Mr. Humphreys,
who, with Mr. Miller, appeared for the plaintiff, it ap-
peered that the plaintiff is a person whose place of business
is at Craven-street, in the Strand, and who is in the habit
of disemnaing bills. lie now sought to recover the amount
of a bill of exchange for '2001., drawn on the 20th of Jan.,
1847, and payable three months after date. The defendant,
Mr. Hales, was a dissenting minister, at Pillgwenlly, near
Newport, in Monmouthshire, who, in 1847, being desirous of
raising money on a bill of exchange, entered into negotiation
with • person of the name of Miles. Toe bill (as we understood)
waa indorsed by the son of the defendant. Gadderer, the
plaintiff, being in the habit of discounting bills, was applied
to by Miles, to whom the money was paid by Gadderer. The
learned counsel then called evidence in aupp vt of his cue.
Thomas Clarke, a process-server, sold he knew the hand-
writing of the defendant, and to the beat of his belief the
signature to the bill was in his handwriting. In cross-
examination by Mr. Chambers, the witness and he had seen
a person whom he be ieved to be the defendant at Pill-
gwenlly, a village two miles from Newport, on the 22nd
of June, 1847. He went down there for the express purpose
of endeavouring to get a specimen of the handwriting of the
defendant, Mr. Chas. Heine, and also of his son Jabez Maine.
He saw two old ladies, to whom he nine/tented that •
person of his acquaintance was unwell, and wished to pro-
cure • lodging, but, previous to doing so, he wished to know
some comfortable tad clergyman who could give his friend
apirituil consolation. The two ladies thereupon went and
brought a white-headed old clergyman, by which means
witness!got the address of the defendant. But previous to
asking (or the address, witness put his right hand into a
slim, in order that the defendant might have no excuse for
not writing down the address when requested so to do. The
defendant thereupon wrote his name and address, and that,
continued the witness, whose evidence was given with great
volubility and confidence, " that was the way I got •
knowledge of Mr. Charles Heine." His next step wee to
procure • specimen of the handwriting of Mr. Jebez
Maine, who is a grocer and ship.chAndler in the same place.
Witness called on him, professing to went a quantity of his.
cuit, but be had none. Witness they stated that he was
going futtltvr Into Wales, and requested Mr. Maine to give I

m thme documents. The distinction between official and
unehal responsibility was this : the charge made war that
'type documents, had been withheld or suppri teed "in the
cgociatoffice ;" there was, therefore, no accusation against
me noble earl, because it could not be known that it bad
taken place in consequence of the noble earl's interference.
Be had admitted that the noble earl's defence was conclu-
sive and bad acquitted him of any intentional withholding
of the' documents. But he hail felt it a duty to an absent
friend, whom he valued Lb highly as the noble earl did his
friends, to show that this was a cue which justified suspicion
en Me part of parliament, and justified the expression of
that suspicion on the part of the public. On one topic, sad
one only, he thought the noble earl bad fallen into a grave
error, that of conveying an erroneous inference from the me-
morial of the Jamaica planters. It war not the mere opinion
of the comiitsts which the noble earl had withheld, but the
facts as to what had already taken place. On the 7th of
February, the nob:c earl, speaking in that house, traced the
distreta of the planters to certain causes.
The Earl of Mixt° here interposed a remark which was
not heard in the gallery
Lord STANLEY repeated he did not complain of the
noble earl suppreseit.g opinion', but he complained of his
giving a portion of the facts and suppressing others, which
appeared in the same despatch, and which were entirely con.
tradictory of the inference be had attempted to draw. Ile
did com Plain that the noble 'earl, in quoting the declaration
of the planters, that they had embarked 142.0001. in the co-
lony, and that, cons. quently, a great change in society was
going on, bad not stated, at the ume time, that other fact,
wherein the parties declared that that investment of
142,0001. had been a total and entire failure, and that they
had lost all they had embarked. (Hear.) The noble lord
then nail the portion of the memorial referred to, and said
that the planters showed that they only received an annual
return above their expenditure of 8181. towards defraying
the interest at 6 per cent. of the money they had borrowed.
The noble earl had suppressed all this, and of that he com-
plained. That was the only part of the case in which he
thought the noble lord had misled the house ; for this docu-
ment was not laid before the c mamittee until the 28th of
March, nearly two months after the noble lord'altatement
Earl GREY—lnstead of being only laid before the com-
mittee on the 28th of hlarch, the memorial was reported by
the committee on the 14th of March, and I believe it was laid
before them in February.
Lord STANLEY admitted that he had been mistaken as
to the date. (Cheers.)

EQUITY COURTS.
Before the Vice-Maned of Wand.
EARL OP BALCARKES V. JOHNSON.—ACCOUNT OP THR
VALUE OP COAL TARIM FROM A Minn.—The defendant
in this rase was the knee of certain coal mines in Aspall,
near Wigan. held under a lease ham Sir R. Lee. The de-
fendant after having worked out his mine proceeded to work
coal under other land belonging to Sir R. Lee, not contained
in the lease. This conduct he pursued for five year', end
after the death of Sir R. Lee his trustees filed this bill f r
the purpose of obtaining an injunctior. to restrain the de-
fendant from continuing to work the mines. The injunction
was granted, and an application was made for leave to bring
an action at law to ascertain the amount which the trustees
ware entitled to recover from the de.endant in respect of the
coal so taken by him. This application was opposed by the
defendant, and it was finally arranged that a reference
should be made to the mast r to ascertain the said amount.
The master having made his report upon the evidence pro-
duced before him the case now came on upon exceptions to
that report, and it was contended for the defendant that the
master had found a larger sum to be due than was just.—
The Vice-Chancellor considered that as there was no state-
ment by which he could discover the mode in which the
master had formed his calculations he was not at liberty to
say that the report was wrong, but he thought the difficulty
had arisen from the defendant not having kept an account of
the coal he bad taken, as he was bound to have done. Ile
thought the defendant had not fairly stated the circumstances
of the case, and it was impossible to make out what wee the
real value of the coal. lie should, therefore, overrule the
exceptions.

morning, with quotations lower, at 831 to 1 for the

Mon amrned, from Herat, Kohun dil Khan, from Candahar,
together with no one knows how many hlurrees'and Boog-
ti,r. were to pour down on Seinde ■nd annihilate us.
Matters seem to give or. me promise of improvement in the
Nia em's dominions. The ruler and resident are en terms ;
that is something. The pcople seem suffering pretty much
as wind. There is some talk of Oude being likely to come
into our hands without much trouble. Confl[cts in GOOM-
soor are for the prestost over. Throughout India tranquillity
prevails. Trade is still dull, but somewhat less so than for
merle. Lord Falkland assumed the reins of government on
the Ist instant. The Hon. Mr. Clerk left fur Sur eon Satur-
day last; two of his staff, the Hon. Captain Jocelyn and
Captain D'Arey, followed by this evening's packet.

troops advance forwards from Lithuania and Vol- !
ltynta by forced marches. The chief force of the i
Emperor Nicholas stands already on the river Pratt,
r.
udy at any moment to march into Moldavia, and of
course into Wallachia.
AUSTHIA.—The Vienna journals of the 14th have
reached us' The official gazette of the 13th contains
a manifesto of the Emperor, dated Innspruck, the
thh instant, in which he expresses his satisfaction at
the attachment of the provinces, and gives the prospect
of opening a constituent assembly in Vienna, if order
and tranquillity are restored.
The accounts from Prague reach to the evening
of the 14th, at which time quiet had been
restored. The barricades had been withdrawn, and
Count Leo Than, the Gabernial president, set free by
the people who had him in custody. The manner
in which the riots first arose seems to have been dif-
fertnt from what was first stated. In the night of the
11th to the 12th the l'rince Windischgratz had trans-
ported guns to the Wiseherad, Radschin, and Lo-
renzberg, and directed them against the town; the
students demanded, therefore, that a battery of guns,
a number of muskets and cartridges should be given
to the town if he would not withdraw the cannons
from the forts. Ile refused, and the outbreak com-
menced. The wound of the Prince von Windischgratz
turns out to have been mortal.
Alarming accounts have arrived from the Hun-
garian frontiers. According to letters from l'csth of
the 11th inst., the Servians in Neusalz and Gross-
kikinda had risen, and $OO armed Servians had
entered Hungary. Engagements had taken place
between them and the Hungarian troops, and the
whole of the garrison in Peeth was to march imme-
diately to the frontier.

The 9th Reg. of Infantry, which arrived in Manchester on

at Crewe, for want of acoommociation in the barracks are
to go into encampment today on Kersal-mner, formerly the
site of the Mar cheater race-course, and overlooking the city
at the distance of abut a mile and a half. Lieut.-
Gen. Sir T. Arbuthnot in•pect.d the ground last week, and,
it is said, that the regiment will remain in the encampment
for the summer, with a view to its becoming a regular
military depot for the norti., should the cemmander-in-chief
ultimately approve of the site, and of the working of the
principle. The situation is deemed a good one for a military
dep9t, on account ot Manchester being the c ntre of so many
railway termini.

the persons injured in the explosion at the Sovereign Mills
have di in tho Preston Rouse ot Recovery. Their names
were Evan Evans and Elizabeth Lowe. An inquest on the
whole of the bodies was held on Monday last, at Preston,
when a verdict of " Accidental Meath" was returned, the
