COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Nov. 4.

(Sittings in Banco.)—Before Lord Chief Justice Erie and
Justices Williams, Bytes, and Keating.
00HE O. SIR 010501 OBIT AND OTELISS.—ALLZOID PALM
IMPRISON/ONT IN SETH= HOSPITAL.
The plaintiff in this cue was formerly a prisoner for debt
in the Queen's Prison, but after he had been there some time
he was removed as a lunatic to Bethlem Hospital, where he
remained for upwards of two years. After his discharge he
brought this action against the Home Secretary, Captain
Hudson (the governor of the prison), the medical men, and
other persons to recover damages for false imprisonment,
The case was tried before the Lord Chief Justice at the sit-
tings after last term, when the verdict was for the de-
!andante.

Mr. Gore, the plaintiff, now moved for a rule for a new
trial, upon the grounds of misdirection, non-direction, and
that the verdict was against the weight of evidence, and ad-
dressed their lordships at some length, complaining that
there were various informalities in the proceedings for hie
removal, and further that he had in fact never been of un-
sound mind at all.
Mr. Justice Williams said that Mr. Gore had read the
address which be had just delivered, and he requested that
the document from which he had read, and also the affidavit,
should be handed up, so that they might see more clearly
the way in which the case was put.
Time was taken to consider the matter.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.'

The numbers announced for yesterday's at
dance pretty plainly indicated the demise of t
London season. The half-crown public are all ur
making off to the continent, the moors, or the
side as fast as possible, and their places at t
Exhibition must be filled by the more numerous Pas
less wealthy sectionof society. In view of this
tingency, the Commissioners would do well to
mence their shilling Saturdays as soon as p; er
when, no doubt, the half-holiday system, n so
general in extensive establishments won tefl
favourably on the receipts.

MONTENEGRO.

The to -ant Herald of the 6th contains the fol-
lowing description of the state of affairs in Monte-
negro :
Official telegrams, received on Sstnrday, report that
the imperial troops, after advoocing from Seiko.
upon Cettigne, occupied the defile of Kosieraki, and imam
fortifying it for the strategical occupation of the district
around Cettigne extending as far 'as &gamic Since the
recent defeat of the Montenegrins, the frontier districts of
Herzegovina have submitted in the most complete manses.
to the authority of the Sultan. On Thursday, the 31st
alt, the monastery of Kossijerva, which occupies a
very important position between the districts; of Banjani,
liellecki, and Trebigne, surrendered to Mahmood Nebo,
the commander of the troops in Herzegovina. On the was
day the Pacha received the submission of the districts of
Haryiani, Zubs, and Krucheirtzs, when the arms of the in-
habitants were taken from them. The condition of these
districts is described as being miserable is the extreme ; the
greater part of the male population have perished in the
war, leaving their families utterly destitute. The Pander
Klima has fully represented thin to the Sultan, and suggested
to his Majesty that a supply of grain should be sent for the
relief of the surviving families. The inhabitants of Niksich
are sow able to follow their avocations unmolested, and the
Dour► pass is considered to be so secure that couriers and
the aides.drosom of the Ottoman generals are able to
traverse it without a military escort

The Emperor (GoKenai remarks), on the °oar

2dXXICO.

The Moniteur publishes intelligence from Vera
Cruz to the date last given (July 15). The follow-
ing items are new :
Rear-Admiral Rivulet Commandant of the North Ame-
rican station, who, at the fist news of the affair of Puebla,
immediately left New York with the ()Derriere frigate for
Vera Cruz, again left for the north on 14th July, after re-
maining at Vera Cruz 15 days, till be saw that the security
of the town was assured, and that Rear-Admiral Ross was
prepared to meet any eventuality. The yellow fever bad
not entirely disappeared from Vera Cruz, but the Yes.
eels anchored at &entities continued free front its at-
tacks. The transport hospital Amazon(' aloes
had • few sick, in consequence of which Admiral
Rose had pert of the crew landed and lodged in the fort of
San Juan d'Ulloa, • measure which produced a sensible im-
provement. Bands of guerillas were occasionally seen in the
environs of Vera Cruz, but they
detachments which Admiral Rose sent after them. Thus
bands keep the country in a state of alarm, but disponie as
soon as they see the French uniform. They once pulled up
some of the rails on the Tejeria Railway, but the admiral
bad the mischief repaired, and took measures which have
prevented any recurrence of the attempt. The gunboats
Eclair and Grenade were watching the coasts of Qimpeacliy,
and occupied Carman, where the French have considerable
trade. The Grenade bad captured three Menuan schooners
at Tampico.

COURT-Maarlat..—A naval court-martial aa-

at the Nom, for the trial of Lieutenant F. G. Gambier, of
the Co sack, 20, 2:io-bone power, for having been drunk on
board the said ship on the 7th of August inst. ; for de.
sertiog his post by quitting the deck when officer of the

charge of the said ship as officer of the middle watch. The
court was presided over by Captain Thompoon, of the Cum-
berland, 70 ; Captain Moorman, of the Cossack, tad ;
and Mr. Knight, solicitor, Rochester, Aida ea deputy
judge-advocate. After hearing the trial, and also what

years, and to be dismissed from her Majesty's ship Cossack.

WOOLWICH, AUGUST 15.
THE LATE CASE OF CRUELTY AT THE GARRISON.
—A court martial consisting of various officers of Royal
Artillery assembled in the mess-room this morning for the
trial of William Bishop, the man who was recently scrubbed
with sand, and subsequently an inmate of the hospital for
Dearly a fortnight in consequence of the injuries received.
The prisoner, who has scarcely recovered from the effects of
his cruel treatment, was charged with desertion from the
regiment a short time after enlistment. The prooeedings
were not of a public nature, and therefore we are unable
to detail the evidence adduced, but the prisoner was found
guilty of desertion, and the sentence, as usual, will not be
promulgated until sanctioned by the Commander-in-Chid,
who will probably take a lenient view of the case, in °oral-
deration of the dreadful and strictly illegal punishment
which has already been inflicted upon the man.

CHINA.

The following in from the summary of the China
Mail of June 27 :

The mail of May 10 arrived here on the 20th instant.
The past fortnight has been marked by fewer incidents
than usual in connexion with the hostile proceedings against
the rebels in the neighbourhood of She:wine. The weather
is no longer favourable for the excursions of troops, but
though it were, there is reason to suppose that all opera-
tions at a distance of more thus ten miles from Shanghae
would be diecominned in the meantime. The large rebel
force said to be advancing under Chung Wang has shown no
gips of existence as yet ; the only signs of Tiepins life near
Shanghae being the smoke of burning villages in the
adjacent unints7. Of all the places captured, during the
campaign just closed, only Sunkeoug remains in the hands
of the atlas. - -

Fr&XiShanghai we regret to bear that the fine
Ammer Cortes, which lately came from California 111
thirty-five days, making the shortest pamage across
the Paine that hoe ever been known, was burnt to
the water's edge in the harbour three on the 17th
instant; how the fire originated is not yet knows, but there
are not wanting those who affirm that this and other ism
which have unaccountably broken tut in the settlement are
the work of rebel retaliation. The Itipaise•Gesekal is

AUSTRALIA.

We take the following summary of news from the
Melbourne Herald of June 25 :

The parliamentary session, which commeimed on the 90th
of August last, was brought to a close on Wednesday, the
18th inst. ft is necessary to remind our English readers
that this was the first session of our second reformed par-
liament—the first hiving been dissolved by his Excellency
at the instant's of the Hades' administration. For • thus
,Mr. Hades and his colleagues were supported by a stroog
,'party in the new maim* ; but their internal weakness as a
cabinet, their general- incapacity, and the marked
and universid distrust with which some of them
were regarded by the public, speedily reduced
the number of their followers. At length their
wash and very injudicious attempts to remodel the final
soheme on the basis of partial " protection to native in-
dustry" turned the majority against them, and they were
compelled to resign. The present ministry, headed by Mr.
011heassay, were duly installed in their plane*, and have
soomeded by skilful generalship, but not without some very
humiliating defeats, in carrying all their principal measures
and outliving the session. The fact undoubtedly evidences
a reaction in the public mind against the extreme democratic
party. It was generally supposed, when the roll of the new
ireeembly had been made up, that the reign of that
party had really commenced, and without much
prospect of its speedy termination. It was never
expected that the session would class with another O'Sha-
nassy Ministry. and with a new land law of their framing.
Yet such is the case ; and now the return of the ultra-
democratic party to power seems one of the most impro-
bable
wants
bald. circumstances. The truth is, the party wan
ability, ietelligence, internal unity, and almost every ether
element of strength and permanence. To say that it is
thoroughly disorganised is scarcely correct ; for in point of
fact it never was properly organised at all.

WEST MIDLAND.

The report of the directors states that the net
receipts of the West Midland amount to 94,71 W. Several
causes had operated to the prejudice of the balance for dirt-
deud—such u the opening of new Sou at a mum most un-
favourable for their development, the cautioned depression
of trade, and the unseasonable character of the weather.
Still the directors bad hoped to present • more satiefac-
tory result. The sum due to the Hereford section
amounted to 13,8771., enabling the directors to declare •
dividend of four per cent. per annum on the Hereford stock.
Paymeots had bees made under the bead of run-charges
to the South Wales Company of 88,2501., and to the Severn
Valley, 9,4101. hi Mises items there had been con-
siderable lost to the Great Western sad West Midland
Compsuiee. Better results for the future mightbs hoped for
when commercial prosperity shall have returned, and when
the working expenses should bear a more favourable ratio to
the gross earning.. The net accounts of the West Midland
showed that, after psyment of interest en loans, there re-
weed balance of 48,4784 applicable to the payment of
guaranteed dividends—viz, 33.39.34 to the WOK sad
15,0851. to the Newport section. The balsam of the Oxford
section would pay the dividend an the first guaranteed
stock, and on such of the mooed guaranteed stock as was
io the bands of the public. Tbs Newport share of net
revenue was Dot quite sufficient to pay dividend as all the
guaranteed stock of that section, but in the receipts at the
second half considerably exceeded those of the first, it was
proposed to debit the second half year with the ,
and thus pay the full amount of guaranteed hornet oa
descriptions of Newport stock.

TALI OP NEAT,.

The report states that themei* for the half-
year ending June, 1881, were 48.734/. ; and June, 1882,
2,5711., being an increase of 34374 The working of the
coal traffic over the South Wake lee between Neath cad
Swansea involves an addition of about 18 per cent. to the
miles ran by the engines over the Vele of Neath yroper, and
& consequent augineotation of the locomotive and trate
charges, without the profit that would be derived from
the same mileage if run upon the company's own line.
The working expenses of the past include the
cost of working this traffic to Swansea for the whole
six months, while the corresponding half-year included
those charges for four months only. The sum available
for dividend is 15.3291., from which must be deducted
2,581/, for balance of interest on preferential capital, leaving
12,748/. for dividend on the ordmary stock. The directors
recommend a dividend at the rate of 31 per cent. per
annum, leaving a balance of 953/. to be carried to the next
half-year.

The drafting order has caused considerable ex-

a factory in Brooklyn where negroes are employed,
and threatened to burn the premises with the negroes
inside. The latter were, however, protected by the

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 12th publish an
address to Queen Isabella by the Archbishop
of Santiago, complaining of the great license of
'the press on matters of religion. The Epees,
in reply, declares that the Spanish bench of
bishops, if they consider themselves aggrieves!,
can apply for retirees to the courts of law.
A letter from Madrid of the 12th says :

There is in this city a theatre, called the &meta, where
pieces are played and snug which are only • parody
on the French Opera Comigne. In this house, where
some persons deceive themselves in thinking they
will hear some passable music, a piece is performed
called El hijt. de Son Jose, in which a lieutenant of in-
fantry is made to enact a ludicrous part. After the Bret re-
.

presentation sonic officers of the garrison called on the
author of the piece and the director of the theatre, and de-
manded that modifications should be made in the part
which they considered insulting to the army. Their applica-
tion was attended to, but the civil governor, on hearing
that a change bad been made without his consent, fined
the director, and had the original part replaced. The eve-
ning before last about 100 officers attended ; General Don
Enrique O'Donnell, iu the full uniform of Captain-General
of Madrid, and the civil governor, also in full official ow-
tome, 11),9ng also present. From the eminent that the actors
appeared on the stage, the civilians applauded and the officers
hissed, and during the whole performance there was • tremen-
dons noise. The officers threw at the actors certain vegetables
not precisely expressive of great enthusiasm. Several
ladies feinted, and the majority left the house fearing •
fight between the civilians and the officers, but the pies
was at length brought to an end without any interference
on the pert of the police. The subject of military prapoo.
&ranoe has lately been spoken of both in the Senate
and the Deputies, and many of the journals have
spoken warmly against the rigime of the sabre.
lAfter the above representation at the arenas, a
warm discussion took place at the Casino, between several
! members of the pees and some superior officers. Colonel
Alaminos, of the Albueran Chessman, made use of some
violent expressions against journalists, when M. Alvarado,
director of the Coletcmp,raiteo, said that he was • jourealist,
and called on the officer to retract. This was refused, and
• duel with swords was the consequence. Colonel Alsaninos
received a wound in the forehead and another in the wrist,
Lis opponent escaping unhurt.

ITALY AND PRUSSIA.

TURIN, Pea 17.
To-day, in the Chamber of Deputies, the postal
conventions between the Italian government and I
Switzerland and Greece were approved of.
Signor La Farina expressed a wish that a similar
convention should be concluded with Prussia.
To this Baron Ricasoli replied that lie had always
sought that the Italian cause should not become
isolated u 1 its relations with other nations. Among
those who have displayed towards Italy the greatest
sympathy, said Baron Riess°li, is the Prussian go-
vernnient, which has likewise manifested sentiments
favourable to our cause. The Prussian represents- :
tire has always remained at Turin, as our mine- I
sentative remains at Berlin. The Italian envoy was
received with sympathies and honours during the
coronation of the King of Prussia..
In conclusion Baron Ricasoli eulogised the mag-
nanimity of the Prussian government and people.

SOU AND ANOTHER v. HOWE -A TOOLE NAN'll WENN BILL.
" " • •

-- ---
The plaintiffs were wine merchants in Oxfordaterat, and
the defendant was a young man who, having come into •
pod deal of property, lived in London, and also kept a
hunting establishment at Bletchley. The action was to se-
cover 204/. 6d., a balance of 7761., for wines and spirits
supplied to the plaintiff between the 15th July, 1859, and
the 21st June, 1661.
Mr. Serleant Parry and Mr. Wood appeared for the
plaintiff ; and Mr. Iluddleston and Mr. Garth for the
defendant.
A good deal of discuasion took place between counsel, and
It was elated that there was a plea of infancy upon the re-
cord, and therefore the question whether this quantity of
wine was oaoeswq for an infant might arise. (Laughter.)
la addition, the elivery of every bottle of wine would be

&aputed.
'MI Lordship said if this were eo be should postpone the
esass, with a view to its being referred.
Another question was suggested, which was this :—The
defendant came of age on the 21st June, 1860 ; the wine
amplified after this period amounted to 4881. 125., whilst
during the same time there had been paid 4564 its., and
the question was whether the plaintiff could not appropriate
the whole of those payments on amount of the goods sup-
plied attar he came of age.
The can was ultimately postponed, with a view to •
refereoce, and leave was given to raise the question of law.

CHATHAM, Few. 17.
In order to add still further to the security of this
dockyard and animal, the government has decided a greet.
ing another large battery, a short distance below Chatham
dockyard, at Gilliugam-reach, in addition to the two bat-
teries at Folly Point and Daratoness. The works in canna
don with the construction of the last two mentioned bat
ferias are bang pushed forward as rapidly as circumstances
will allow, the contractors having bed the most for-
midable difficulties to surmount in of the
aft and yielding state of the soil on which fortifications
are to be erected. Considerable papa' bee also been made
in the arenas of the fortify:anew en both aides of the
maws of the Medway, and it ia believed that the whole
will be completed and armed within the time originally
"podia—two yams. It is now decided that the marten*
tower a the mama to the river, built a few years since
at a wet of 12,0001., and armed with gas of the heaviest
chlibre, is not to be reenoad, as the new batteries erecting
ow the Isle of Grain will be so placed that the tower will
not be in the way of the range of their guns. All the bat-
%od athed es, when fi, are to be armed with the most
powerful Armstrong ad other ordnance, rendering the plu-
mp of the Medway to Chatham-dockyard almost impreg-
nable to a hostile dent.

THE ALHAMBRA PALACE.

It was generally imagined that Leotard, who is
eurtainly the most graceful and accomplished, as he pro-
bably is the most daring and powerful of living athlete',
had mashed • kind of ideal perfection in his performanoss
oa the trapeze. It seemed almost impossible that his ex-
ploits, se tests of strength and skill, could be surpassed
even by himself. Yesterday, however, be introduced mem
novelties, which certainly added to the difficulty, if they did
sot increase the beauty or enhance the public enjoyment of
his renowned performance. The chief novelty carded in
his seising two small openaheped loops fixed to the bar of
the central trapeze, instead of the liar itself, in his flight ears
the paler, and during his evolutions on the espies. These
loops being only jest large enough to be peeped bythe hard.
it Lint course a much higher test oe skill to seine these la pear
ing than merely to catch the bar of the trapue. Another
novelty was the throwing • back somersault from the
central trapeze, in addition to the ordinary somersault'.
The ease, dexterity, and finished self-command with which
these new feat. are performed will amply repay another
visit to the Alhambra on the part of those even who are
perfectly familiar with Leotard's usual but most extra-
ordinary performances.
