COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-DEC. 11.

Sittings at N Pains in Lonlon.—(BetoreDlr.Justice
Smith and a Common Jury.)
COI:CHER V. ASHLEY.

Both parties to this suit were ministers of religion;
the action was to recover damages for libel, and also for
oral slander ; and there were pleas justifying as true the
statements which had been made.

Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., Mr. H. James, and Mr. Bridgeman
were for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., and Mr.
H. Lloyd for the defendant.
Mr. Justice Smith said that before the facts of the ease
were stated, be wished to observe that, looking at the
record, he saw that the inquiry would be a very painful
one, and he strongly urged upon the parties the prudence
of coming to some amicable arrangement without discuss-
ing the matter in public.
Several attempts were made by the learned counsel to
carry out his lordship's suggestion, and ultimately they
succeeded in doing so.
Mr. James was happy to say that his lordship's sugges-
tion had at length been assented to by both parties. His
lordship would see by the declaration that there were
several counts, two of them containing alleged libels re-
flecting upon the plaintiff's personal character, and others
relating to hie position as a minister of a church. They
had agreed, as far as the two counts which contained
allegations of personal immorality were concerned, there
should be a verdict for the plaintiff for 40s. damages, and
that those charges against him should be withdrawn. As
to the other counts, they had agreed that it should be •
drawn battle, each party retaining his own impression
as to which was right and which was wrong. He understood
tbattbe defendant had been under the impression that some
counter charges had been made against him, but he (Mr.
James) wished to say that the plaintiff never had, and
never wished to make any charges of any kind against the
defendant.

Mr. Coleridge said that if the case had gone on it would
have been a long and complicated inquiry, and with regard
to a great deal of the matter in question there was no
doubt that to the day of judgment each party would retain
the impression that he was in the right,and therefore it was
proper that se to those matters the jury should be dis-
charged without giving a verdict. As to the statements
which were derogatory to the moral character of the
plaintiff, Dr. Ashley felt that he had acted upon the state-
ment of others, and that be had no legal grounds to make
those statements, and therefore he, ea an honourable man
should do, withdrew those statements, and regretted that
he had ever male them.

Mr. Justice Smith was glad that an arrangement had
been come to, for the inquiry must have been a very
painful one, and it would have been of no public advan-
tage.
A verdict was then entered for the plaintiff for 40s.
upon two of the counts, and the jury were discharged as to
the other counts.

MISCILL11211:008 TOPICS.

Having sketched in the least favourable colours the
state of the streets of Paris 30 years ago, the Telegraph
proceeds to remark that it is now incomparably more
sumptuous and relatively • much cleaner city than
London. It has no quarters full of horrors, no districts
teeming with fever, misery, and starvation ; and with
those alone. To assert that its morals are perfect would
be idle ; but at least its wickedness wean a veil, and its
profligacy is compelled to behave itself. In London, on
the contrary, every phase of wretchedness, guilt, and vice
seems to be enhanced instead of mitigated in repulsive-
ness. A blundering local government, intense selfishness,
and boundless conceit, hermetically close our eyes to the
fact that • hundred new hotels, railway stations, Man-
chester warehouses, and joint stook banks are but drops of
water in an ocean of reform, so long as we allow the slums
of Westminster and Soho, Bethnal-green and Spitalfields,
Whitechapel and Wapping to remain undisturbed.
Referring particularly to Lord Denbigh's recent state-
ment that lie is int • catholic and then an Englishman,
the Standard says this is a peculiarity of Roman catho-
licism which ought never to be forgotten when men are
criticising the course of protestant governments. The
church of Rome is a religious body claiming for • foreign
power authority and jurisdiction in many secular ques-
tions of the gravest temporal importance. And the
state is perfectly competent to judge whether such autho-
rity and jurisdiction are or are not injurious to its welfare;
and entitled to animadvert upon and protect itself against
them. The staunchest friend of religious equality might
consistently object to the endowment of Roman catholic

STUBBS AND ANOTHER V. PHILLIPS.

The plaintiffs in this case, Messrs. Stubbs and Thorn,
carried °flimsiness as upholsterers in theWeetminster-road,
under the firm of Atkinson and Co.' and they sued the
defendant to recover from him 136/. 10.. Scl., for furniture
supplied to his wife whilst she was living apart from him.
Mr. J. Browne, Q.C. and Mr. H. Uoyd appeared for
the plaintiffs ; and Mr. Cole, Q.C., for the defendant.
The plaintiffs' case was that 11r. Phillips was a gentle-
man who lived at Headlands-park, near Plymouth, and
had en income of at least 7001. • year. He had been
separated from his wife for some years, and she had an
allowance for herself of G.W. • year, and 401. • year for two
children. There was also an additional allowance of 401.
a year to the children from their godmother. It was also
contended that this was not, under the circumstances, an
adequate allowance, and therefore that the defendant was
liable to pay for the furniture, upon the ground that it
came within the description of necessaries supplied to the
plaintiff's wife.
Some evidence was given, and it appeared that Mrs.
Phillips had on one or two other occasionsrecently had sup-
plien of furniture, and that on one occasion she had sold
her furniture for 5001., invested the money on insufficient
security and lost it.
Mr. Justice Smith expressed his opinion that under these
circumstances it would be very difficult to say that Mr.
Phillips could be compelled to pay for the last supply of
furniture.

Kr. Browne agreed that It would be egoism' to keep the
case up any longer, and therefore he sleeted to be non-
suited.

Nonsnit accordingly.

PEDESTRIAN FEATS IN AMERICA.

Weston, the pedestrian, arrived at Chicago, the
end of his toilsome journey, on the 28th ult. As early as
7 o'clock in the morning crowds of people commenced
pouring out to the southern limits. He reached the
junction of Twenty-second-street and Wabash-avenue
about 10 o'clock, three miles from his hotel. His march
down the avenue was a perfect ovation. Evcry public and
private carriage in the city, express waggons, drays
and omnibuses loaded with people, blocked up the
street., and for the entire distance the sidewalks
were filled with a mass of people so dense that
motion was almond impossible. The windows of the
residences were crowded with ladies, who greeted him
along the entire route by waving handkerchiefs, to
which the crowds in the street responded with hearty
cheers, Weston bowing his acknowledgments. In spite of
the efforts of the police Weston was fairly car vied into the
hotel on the shoulders of the crowd. He then made his
appearance on the balcony, holding his little girl in his
arms and a beautiful bouquet given him by the ladies, and
received a hearty round of cheers. In the afternoon Weston
appeared at the Opera-house. He was to remain in the
city two weeks, during which time be will attempt the
feat of walking 100 miles on the Dexter Park Course.
The Ch leafy.) TrilAtne publishes the following:—" To
the Editor of the Chfrago Tribune.—As pedestrianism is
the rage, and one Y. Church has made a proposition, I will
also make one. My proposition is this : I will take Mr.
Weston's back track and perform the journey to Portland
on my hands and knees—that is, walk or crawl, as you wish
to call it, in 200 working days, the intervening Sundays to
be at my own option ; provided there are 30,000 dollars
raised for me, to be disposed of in this wise : I.
Ten thousand dollars to the Orphan Asylum of
Chicago, if there is one ; if not to found one.
2. That I receive five thousand dollars the day before I
star t, to pay expenses of outfit and family. 3. That I re-
ceive five thousand dollars when I arrive at Buffalo. 4.
That I receive the remaining tea thousand dollars when I
arrive at Portland, provided I arrive there within said
time. If Ido not get there in time, then I shall receive
but five thousand more, and the other five thousand shall
be added to the orphan fund. I will start in fifteen drys
after the funds are raised and properly secured.'-0. N.
Woon, No. 144, West Twelfth street."
To this she editor append. the following note :
" We have a better proposition than the above from
another man, who wishes to walk all the way to Portland
on his hands alone, for half the money that the above
correspondent demands. We are expecting to receive to-
morrow another letter from still another individual, pro-
posing to roll to Portland."

THE CONSCUNCE CLAISL

The Daily News and the Times notice the cor-
respondence between Lord Granville and the Duke of
Marlborough with reference to the conscience clause. The
former comments on the extraordinary fact that, despite
the position of the duke am minister of education, his g.-ace
has hitherto been in ignorance of the meaning of
the clause, though nothing can be more explicit.
It is not, however, the fear which the Duke of Marlbo-
rough had entertained that occasions the scruples of the
clergy who follow Archdeacon Deniaca's lead. They re-
fuse to admit the conscience clause, not, as the duke sup-
poses, because they fear lest their schools may cease to be
denominational or lose their religiotuichanscter altogether ;
but because they deny the right of a parent to direct the
religious education of his own ~hild, and expect, by threat-
ening to exclude children from school, to compel the
parents to accept religions instruction of a description they
conscientiously diaapprove. If these are the only objects
which the clew opposed to the conscience clause have in
view, the duty of parliament to interfere becomes not only
obvious bat urgent.

The Times inclines to think it penal lt that by some
slight alteration it might be made still clearer that the
clause imposes no restriction on the religious teaching of
those who do not claim exemption under it. It may be
worth while trying if, without any o,antknment of prin-
ciple, some verbal compromise could afford a means of
removing the semblance of opposition which still remains.
It is in vain, of course, to attempt to conciliate Arch-
deacon Denison ; but the National Society render such
services to the cause of einc.tti n that it is lamentable it
should remain at lane with the Privy Council on an
essential point. In • word, tae public will appreciate
Lord Granville's notice ; but they will be prepared to
give a favourable consideration to any conciliatory pro-
posal the Duke of Marlborough may suggest. It is the
outrageous sort of claim made by At andesoon Denison
which has alone rendered necessary a legal guarantee for
freedom of conscience.

LIFEBOAT SERVICE.

ABERDOVEY, NORTH WALES, WEDNISDAL
The schooner Jane Sophia, of Aberystwith, from
Newport to this place with coals, attempted the bar last
right before the tide served (says Mr. Dierid Williams of
her Majesty's Customs), and struck on the South Bank.
It was blowing rely strongly from the N.N.W., and a
heavy sea was running at the time. A pilot boat, which
124 gone as near as possible to the schooner, found that
she could reader no assistance on account of the very high
sea, and therefore returned here for the Royal Berkshire
lifeboat, belonging to the National Lifeboat Institution.
The boat was promptly launched, and proceeded down to
leeward of the veamel, which was found to be very leaky
from her continued and heavy thumping on the sands, and
sy,s likely to break up before long. As, however, there
au a seri high tide, it INS determined to try and get her
off. and, after effecting a communication, seven men were
pa on board, nail was made, and, after some difficulty,
the vessel was got off the bank, and, with her crew, taken
into the harbour.

THE CLUB DINNER.

In the evening the members of the club dined together
at the Salisbury Hotel, under the presidency of General
Hnoti. The company wail more than usually numerous,
including the Earl of Hardwicke, Captain Victor Yorke,
Captain Montague, and several other persons of
distinction. The dinner and wines reflected great credit
on the manager of the hotel.
. .

On the removal of thecloth the Chairman gave, with the
usual honours, " Her Majesty, the Queen ;" and, in doing
so, noticed an interesting fact, that this year her Majesty
won for the tint time an exhibition at this show. (Loud
cheers.) They were perhaps not aware that the Queen
113 s one of the largest farmers in the kingdom, and culti-
vated with thentmest care every variety of stock. (Cheers.)
The next toast was " The Prince and Princess of Wales
and the rest of the Royal Family." In giving this toast
the Chairman announced that her royal highness was at
last rapidly resnering from her long and painful ill-
ness. (Cheers.)
To " The Army, Navy, and Volunteers,"
Captain VICTOR YORKE responded. He had, he said, just
returned from an inspection of the warlike implements in
the Paris Exhibition, and could state that nothing there
at all approached our own specimens. The French ad-
mitted this, and the Emperor usually came every morning
and inspected the British weapons carefully before the
exhibition was open. He (Captain Yorke) had seen the
hassepot at Chalons, and had found it a very effective
weapon. but expensive, seeing that one cartridge cost
three pence. At Metz 400 women made 13,000 of these
cirtridges in a day, while at Woolwich one man in the
same tune made 230,000 Schnieder cartridges. (Loud
cheers.). . _

The Earl of H.tnnwrc►e returned thanks for the navy,
alleging. at the same time, that no class of society affi-
liated so closely with the farmers as the sailors.

The CHAIRMAN next gave "Success and Prosperity to
the Smithfield Club," and congratulated the company on
the present prosperous condition of the club. They had
this year au excellent exhibition, and were largely patro-
nised by the public. The chairman then gave an historical
outline of the club from 1821, when it was proposed to
dissolve it, until the time when it was resuscitated
through the exertions of the late Duke of Richmond and
the late Earl Spencer. It was now firmly established,
and all it wanted was the publication of an annual report
to make it a most valuable institution. General Hood
having alluded to the acceptance by her Majesty of a baron
of beef off the prize oz, concluded by repeating his toast,
which was responded to with acclamation.

The presentation of prizes followed, and after the few
remaining toasts had been disposed of, the company broke
ur. A musical party, including Mr. Young, the eminent
tenor, and several choristers, sang songs end concerted
pieces during the evening.

'scout' performance, a week since, Herr Payer introduced
sperimens from the harpsichord music of Lully. Meatlatti,
llaluppi, Martini, and Parodies, and the more modern
Pianoforte works of Clementi,Cramer, Field, Chopin, and
Schumann and Keller—thus illustrating.it will be seen,the

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWS

PARIS, WZDNISDAY EVIDMIG.
M. de Chilly, the manager of the Od6on, has
written to inform M. Victor Hugo that the per-
formance of Buy Bias in Paris having been abso-
lutely interdicted, the contract for its revival is
necessarily rescinded by a via major. It is indeed
an extraordinary way of practising the new doc-
trine of the liberty of theatres to prohibit a
standard play which had possession of the Paris
stage before the Second Empire was thought of.
But it seems the government cannot tolerate a
renewal of the applause which lately greeted Her-
nani at the Francais, and so Frenchmen who want
to see Victor Hugo's plays acted must take the
trouble to go as far as Brussels.
The Libert44 gives as " latest news," and under
all reserve, that the French troops at Civita Vec-
chia have received orders to return to Rome "in
certain eventualities." It seems to me that such
news as this requires very little reserve. It is
known already, from official disclosures, that the
city of Rome was only evacuated in order to
"facilitate" negotiations for the conference, and
to encourage a belief in the assertion of the Em-
peror's speech that the time might soon be
"calculated" when the expeditionary army
would leave the Roman states altogether.
Now that all hope of the conference is over,
and the naked fact stands confessed that the tem-
poral power has no other support than French
bayonets, it is only natural that General de Failly,
who left artillery and warlike stores behind him,
should resume his place at Rome and expect rein-
forcementa.

You might recollect, if such unimportant things
were not soon forgotten, that I told you last month
tho court would not leave St. Cloud for the Tuile-
ries before Dec. 20. Many announce.nents of an
earlier day have since been made, and a court ball
early in this month was confidently talked of. But
their Majesties are still at St. Cloud, and, accord-
ing to the latest intelligence, will not leave it till
the 23rd.

The prefect of the department of the Correia has
issued a decree prohibiting the sale of the Arenir
National at the railway station of Brives-la-Gal-
liarde —a place little known to fame. This is, I
think, the most petty interference with the liberty
of the press on record.
The Bourse was again extremely firm. Rente rose
15c. for cash, and 25c. for account, closing at
69fr. 60c. in each cane. Italian rose 25c., Credit
Foncier 10fr., and Mobilier 31r. 75c.

SPAIN.
The Inclipendancei BOA says :
•

The news from Spain continues to be contralictory as to
the condition of the insurrection. What is certain, how-
ever, in spite of official telegrams and reports, is that the
movement is not suppressed. The strangest and moat
unexpected rumours are in circulation in Madrid, which
shows that they regard the situation us grave. Thus it
was reported that there was a split in the cabinet, and that
three ministers were anxious to retire, but were prevented
by their colleagues. 2'he resignation of the entire ministry
is now spoken of. The Queen would call in Espartem and
the progressist party. It is said that the ex-Queen Chris-
tina has gained over General Prim, and that this turn in
affairs is the result of her councils. On the other hand,
there is a report of a still more reactionary government
than the presentone under the direction of General Penick.

a picture known to be ono of his forgeries, yet placed as a
genuine Itaffaelle. Italian " restorers " again have done
is good deal to complicate the question. An anecdote
given, I think, in the Quarterly neri, lc some years ago, is
worth repeating. " We once asked an able Italian restorer
if he had ever met with any pictures bye painter of the
Lombard school of considerable merit, whose only work
with which we are acquainted is in the Louvre." " Oh,
es," he frankly replied; " the very int Mb upon which
Iwax employed was in converting one of his pictures into
the Leonardo der Vinci now ina well-known gallery. Sines
then I bare frequently repeated the operation, and I don't
know of one now existing under his name."—Corshill

We have a large supply of beasts, and, consequently
trade is rather slow, purchasers endeavouring to obtain
larger reductions ia price than salesmen will yield to. The
number of sheep and lambs is about the same as
on Monday last. Trade is scarcely so good, but
there is very little reduction on tho average. 'There are
very few calves on offer ; they realise higher prices. Our
foreign supply Lousists of 2,1'20 beasts, 8,370 sheep, 78
calves, and 60 pigs. From Scotland there are 10 beasts,
Ireland 50, and 2,710 from the Northern and Midland
counties.

THE SALZBURG INTERVIEW.

The Metn"rial I)iplomafiq"c publishes the fol-
lowing telegram :—" Vienna, 30th.—The news
given by the FrenulcuMatt that Austria and France
were going without delay to send a collective note
to amicably invite Prussia to bring the affair of
Northern Schleswig to a conclusion is not only
denied, but exactly contrary to the understanding
established at Salzburg, in consequence of which
the cabinets of Vienna and Paris are to abstain
from interfering directly with the negotiations pro-
ceeding between Copenhagen and Berlin, and are
to content themselves with counselling Denmark to
lend herself, concerning the rectification of frontiers,
to concessions suited to produce the desired agree-
ment between her and Prussia." The same journal
says :
In order to understand the preceding programme, and
which emanates from an authentic source, it should be
known that the cabinet of Berlin claims possession of the
line of Alsen and Duppel as indispensable to the strategic
defence of Germany ou its northern frontiers ; that point
safeguarded, it declares itself ready to fulfil the engage-
ments resulting from the Treaty of Prague. During the
interview of the two Emperors at Salzburg, it was natu-
rally examined whether for a question of such small im-
portance entire Europe should be kept unsettled ; the
cohclusion arrived at was to advise Denmark, in the inte-
rest of the consolidation of the general peace, to submit to
this last sacrifice. France, in accord with Austria, instead
of exercising in the affairs of Germany any interference
which could wound Prussia, will use her infinence at
Copenhagen with a view simply to conciliation. Prussia
will no longer therefore be able to complain that the
interview of Salzburg implies a menace or provocation for
I her.

ALLEGED FRAUDS RE A COMMISSIONAIRE.

Hears Williams., late a member of the Corps of Com-
missionaires, who was tried a few sessions ago, on a charge
of stealing money received by him at the athletic sports at
Beaufort House, Fulham, some months ago, was
again placed at the bar. In this case, when the prisoner
was tried on a former occasion, the jury were unable to
agree, and they were discharged. To-&y the prisoner
again pleaded not guilty.
Mr. M. Williams, who appeared for the prosecution,
said that, se the prisoner had been already. triad by moths;

any evidence on the part of the prosecution.
Mr. Ribton said the prisoner belonged to a very respect-
able body of men called Commissionaires, and although
had undoubtedly received some money during the Orford
and Cambridge athletic sports, he assured him that he had
no idea whatever of acting in a criminal manner, bet was
under a full impression that the sums he received were
handed to him as &gratuity, the members of these clubs
always acting liberally towards persons in the position of
the prisoner.
The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty, and the pri-
soner was discharged.
