THE CHOLERA IN AMIENS.

The Moniteur says that the cholera carried off in
three consecutive days 61 63, and 134 persons at Amiens,
and that the Empress left Paris the day beforo yesterday
to visit the hospitals and to succour the sick.

In the account of the late accident to the Prince
of Wales which appeared in the Pall Mall Gazette, the
terms " gallopine snob," " Cockney Hotspur," &c., were
freely bestowed on the luckless rider. A correspondent
of the Star says that the rider to whom this untoward
accident occurred was a young gentleman of standing in
society, whose guardian has long been attached to the
court, and who, immediately on recovering himself, made
known his name, and expressed his deep regret at the un-
fortunate occurrence. The Prince of Wales sent a mes-
sage to this gentleman by his guardian, declaring that he
had seen with regret the comments which had appeared on
the matter in the newspapers, avowing that far too much
had been made of the matter, which he knew was purely
accidental, expressing his perfect forgiveness, and his de-
sire that his involuntary assailant should come to luncheon
with him at Marlborough House.

A marble tablet has been placed in the Wesleyan
chapel at Fareham, in Hants, to the memory of the Rev.
Mr. Draper, who was drowned in the steamer London. On
the tablet is a representation of the ill-fated steamer.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
(THIS DAY.)

EQUITY COURT.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. P. Wood.)

NBIOLEAU V. THE ENITID STATES AND ANDREW JOHNSON.
THE UNITED NTATEI r.

This wee a motion on behalf of the plaintiff in the first
above-mentioned suit that proceedings in the second-
mentioned suit might be stayed until the President of the
United States put in his answer in the first suit. The
second suit, which was the earliest instituted, was a suit
having for its object to obtain possession of the produce
of cotton, lately held by agents of the American rebels,
which was now claimed by the Amerioan government.
After this suit was instituted the defendants filed
their bill spinet the United States and the
President in the nature of a cross suit, and for the purpose
of obtaining discovery to enable them to defend the ori-
ginsl suit. Under these circumstances and during the de-
lay the original suit with the discovery sought for had
been obtained. In the cross suit the present motion was
made.

The Pies-Chancellor was of opinion that it was per-
fectly within the scope of the jurisdiction of the court to
enforce such a motion as that now made against a sove-
reign state which by filing an original bill submitted
itself to the jurisdiction of the court. Bat the mutt
could not go beyond that, and could therefore affect to
have no jurisdiction over the President of the United
States who was not a party to the original brill. It had been
argued that the United States must be regarded as • cor-
poration, and then that the President, as its chief officer,
was bound to pledge his oath to the truth of the corporate
answer in like manner as the secretary of an ordinary cor-
poration, or publics company, did in the ease of a suit
against his company. But the court had no means of
taking, and could not take, judicial cognisanee of the fact
that the President was the officer of the United States,
who had charge of its archives and access to its affairs.
The result would be that proceedings in the first suit
would be stayed as asked, but only until the United States
should put in their answer.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
After Term Nisi Prins Sittings at Guildhall.--{Before
the Lord Chief Justice and a Special Jury.)
ALLAN T. SIR GY.O. JLNCINSON, BART.
This was an action of wrongful dismissal.
Mr. Kemp was counsel for the plaintiff ; Yr. Chas.
Pollock was counsel for the defendant.

prisoner said, " Where is your authority•' Wit-
ness put his hand into hie breast pocket to
produce his warrant card, but before he had time to do
so, the prisoner struck him a violent blow in the chest.
Witness seised him and took him into custody. With
the assistance of Reed, one of the South Eastern Railway
Company's police, witness removed the prisoner to the
station.

By Mr. Vaughan—The prisoner had no business there
unless he was • passenger, or in some way oonrccted with
the company. The place wu the private property of the
company.
Mr. Vaughan observed that this was a very important
point in the case.

The witness went on to state that he searched the pri-
soner at the station-house, and found on him U. 7s. 61. in
money, a locket made in imitation of a watch, a cigar case,
and a pocket-book containing a number of tradesmen's
cards.

Mr. Vaughan said it was quite clear that the sergeant
was justified in the course he took, and indeed he
would not have been fit for his post if he had acted other-
wise. The assault committed by the prisoner was there-
fore wholly unjustifiable. He must pay a fine of 11., or be
imprisoned for 14 days.
The amount of the fine was deducted from the money
found on the prisoner, the remainder being handed over to
him, and he was liberated.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A BAD 81.011 Y.-THE MA RQUIB OF TOWNSEJED AND THE

HJI.GOADA.

Mary Asa Efeariland, s 4irl, charged by the Marquis
Townahend with begging in Piccadilly, was again brought
before Mr. Knox. _

The girl begged of the marquis in Piccadilly, and on his
recognising her u a girl he had once before charged at this
court but who was allowed to go at large on her father pro.
mising that he would not send her out begging again, he
gave her into custody.
Mr. Knox ordered inquiries to be made respecting the
girl, and
Sergeant Bunce, 5 C, said he bad ascertained that the
girl's mother was dead and the father, who got his living
as a tinker, had lately broken up his home and gone, he
believed, into the north of England, and the poor girl was
now destitute.

Mr. Knox mid he thought the best thing would be to
send the girl to a schooL
A poor girl with a child in her aims got into the witaess
box and stated that she was the prisoner's sister.
Mr. Knox asked her whose child it was she had in her
arm..

The girl said it was her mother's, but her mother was
dead. She would look after her sister if the magistrate
would let her go.
Mr. Knox put some questions to the sister, and from
her answers it was evident she had a bard struggle to
maintain herself and the child.
The Marquis Townshend said he would look after the
sister and see whether something could not be done for
her.
