This concert was announced as being "by special
desire ;" or, in other words, was honoured by the presence
of Royalty. The illustrious visitors were the Prince and
Princess of Wales and Prince Christian of Denmark, who,
with a numerous suite, occupied the seats immediately in
front of the orchestra. The usual influence of a Royal
visit was perceptible in the comparative brevity of the
concert, the lighter style of the music, and the larger pro-
portion of vocal pieces. There was but one symphony, an
old but charming production of Haydn ; but the overture
to Leonora, the noblest dramatic prelude ever written, has
all the grandeur of a symphony. The overture to Zampa
is very theatrical and very French; and musical purists
may question the propriety of its admission into the pro-
gramme of a Philharmonic Concert : but, though not cast
in a classical mould, it is full of fire and vigour, and
worthy of its author, one of the greatest ornaments of the
French dramatic schooL

ODIHAM RACEK—TursDAT.
Immediately preceding the fashionable Stockbridge gathering,
this meeting was largely patronised, many of the patecian and
chief supporters of the turf being present. It commenns the
Hampshire week, and being situated en route to Stockbridge,
most of the book-maker break their Journey, so that all the
principal operators are to be seen in the enclosure, which gives
it the appearance of a much more important gathering. This
meeting has been so singularly unfortunate with weather, that
it seems almost impossible for the day to peas without rain, and
yesterday preyed no exception to the rule, ea a more
miserable morning for the enjoyment of the spurt could not
be imagined, heavy showers falling until the racing commenced,
when it cleared up, and although the sky remained cloudy, the
atternorn was comparatively fine for Wiliam. The attendance
of pleasure seekers was exceedingly good considering the weather.
Several drags and fashionable aarri were drawn up opposite
the stand, together with a number of humbler vehicles. The
racing, commenced at half-past one, and concluded shortly
after live. Speculation, although spirited, was very limited, and
there was no betting on future events.

EQUITY COURTS. —Jules 12.
(Before Woe-Chancellor Sir J. Stuart)
11 NIRMY, UMW&
In this matter an application was to-day made to the
court to discharge Mrs. Newbery from piece, whither she
had been sent for oontenspt of court in not having
an order directing her to deliver her cbildrento Mr.
their testamentary guardian. It will be remembered that
the late father of the infants was a clergyman of the eats-
blhhed church of Ragland ; and by his will he appointed
his widow and the Rev. Mr. Cadell the guardians of his two
infant children. After Mr. Newbery's death Mrs. Newbery
joined the sect of "Pl th Brethren," and an order was
afterwards pronoun by the court, forbidding her to take
the children to any meetings of the brethren, or to any
other place of worship than one conducted according to
the principles of the church of England. That order Mn.
Newbery disregarded, and took the children to one
of the lbrsthren's meetings. She was then ordered to
deliver the children to Mr. Cadell by a certain
day, or to stand committed for contempt of court.
That order she also disobeyed, and therefore it
was that she was sent to prison. It was however,
now stated that the children had sines been delivered
to Mr. Cadell, having been taken from their mother by
the proper officer of the court. It was now therefore
asked that Mrs. Newbery might be released from custody,
and might not be made to pay the coots of the contempt.
Mr. Malin, Q.C., and Mr. Graham Hastings appeared
for Mrs. Newbery.
The Vice-Chancellor said he could not depart from the
usual course of proceedings adopted in cases of this nature.
Mrs. Newbery had been guilty of the most wilful con-
tempt of court. She had rip to prison voluntarily, in
consequence of her own misconduct; and she must pay
the costs of the proceedings. Subject, however, to that
she might be discharged from prison.

(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir R. T. Kinderaley.)
IN RE THE EUROPEAN BANK.
It will be remembered that when the petitions for the
compulsory winding-up of this company were before the
court on Friday last, Mr. Bally, on the part of the com-
pany, stated that an arrangement had been come to at a
meeting of shareholders for a voluntary winding up under
the supervision of the court. This course was assented to
by several of the petitioners, but Mr. Looock Webb, for
the Alhambra Company, who were creditors to the extent
of 1,5001., having asked for a compulsory order, the case
was adjourned till to-day for the purpose of ascertaining
the views of the majority of creditors.
I: was now intimated that a large majority of the cre-
ditors were in favour of the proceeding sanctioned by the
meeting, and accordingly
The Vice-Chancellor made an order for the voluntary
winding up of the company under the supervision of the
court.
A large number of counsel were engaged in the case, in-
cluding Mr. Glasse, Mr. Osborne, Mr. Daniel, Mr. Robin-
son, Mr. Roxburgh, Mr. Edward James, Mr. Dickinson,
Mr. Swanston, Mr. J. A. Roberts, Mr. J. N. Higgins, and
Mr. Wickens.

Gavel Ol7TRAo2.—Yesterday Neville Toomer,
aged 34 years, who for some years past has occupied a re-
spectable position in Beading, was brought up before the
Mayor and other magistrates at the police court of that
town to answer a charge of rape preferred against him by
Miss Georgian Partridge, who was 21 years of age, and of
prepossessing appearance. The evidence of the presen-
t= showed that she had been • governess, but being
disengaged she answered an advertisement of the pn-
loner's, and entered his service as housekeeper. The
prisoner was a widower, and represented to the prosecu-
trix that she would have the company of his daughter, 13
jean of age. It was her custom to play and sing to the
prisoner when desired to do am and she was so engaged on
Wednesday evening last when he drew down the blinds and
closed the curtains. In consequence of this the
prosecutrix discontinued singing and made to-
wards the door of the room. The prisoner,
however, caught hold of her, and told her
he loved her. He then threw her on the sofa, and raised
her clothes, after which he forced her into a bedroom
adjoining, and having locked the door, he commenced un-
dressing her. She resisted to her utmost, but he threatened
to choke her if she was not quiet. A struggle which lasted
some time took place, but the prisoner did not effect his
purpose. On the following morning the pramoutrix qed
up her clothes to leave the house, but the prisoner gad
her forgiveness, as he was the worse for liquor at the tune,
and implored her to remain, and he would not repeat such
conduct. She consented to stay, but
for the servant to sleep with her after W=Lel
night. On Sunday sight she retired to her bed, but tie
servant who had a friend with her in the kitchen was later
than usual, and before she went upstairs the prisoner
burst into the prosecutrix's room, got into bed with her,
and after • severe struggle he perpetrated the offence,
the prosecutrix having resisted as much as possible ; but
she appears to have been frightened by the knowledge that
prisoner was iu i.oesession of a brace of pistols. In the
morning prosecutrix told the servant what had occurred,
and the police were communicated with. A warrant being
obtained, the prisoner was apprehended and lodged at the
police station. The bench remanded him for further ex-
amination, and he was again locked up. He occupies •
house in a fashionable part of the town and the case has
occasioned great excitement in the neigh as
WAGES OF DOCKYARD LABOURERS. —Last night
a crowded meeting of the inhabitants of Deptford was held
at the Literary Institution in that town to take into con-
sideration the present low wages paid to the dockyard
labourers, and to adopt measures thereon. The chair was
occupied by the Rev. C. F. S. Money, incumbent of St.
John's, who observed that the large attendance of influen-
tial residents of the district that evening proved the ex-
tensive sympathy which prevailed on behalf of alarge body
of men who were compelled to eke out an exist-
ence upon the miserable pittance of thirteen shillings per
week. He believed that at Chatham and Plymouth •
notice had been received that the wages of the dockyard
labourers would be raised, and he thought if the question
was laid fairly before the Admiralty, that their lordships
would be induced to make such addition general in all
the government yards. Mr. E. Atkins moved, " That,
taking into account the present high price of provisions,
and the increase in house rent which has taken place at
Deptford, this meeting is of opinion that the rate of
wages now paid to the labourers in her Majesty's dock
and victualling yards at Deptford is insufficient to provide
for the reasonable wants and necessities of life, and that
an increase in the pa of the said labourers is
urgently required." The motion was seconded by
Mr. J. B. Langley, and supported by Mr. Maslen, •
Poor-law guardian, who referred to the dire poverty
existing amongst the families of dockyard labourers, who
were unable to get sufficient food, and when sickness
overtook them • treat burden was indicted upon the rate-
payers. The resolution was unanimously adopted. Mr.
Bowen moved "That in the opinion of this meeting an
increase in the pay of the labourers would be attended by
highly beneficial results, inasmuch that it would tend in
• great measure to remove much physical suffering and
social discomfort, and would stimulate the men to greater
exertion. The motion was unaaimously adopted, as was
the memorial in accordance with the objects of the meet-
ingto be forwarded to the Lords of the Admiralty.
THE Hoe PLANTATIONS. —ROCHLSTER Julia 12.
—A visible improvement has taken plan in the hop plan-
tations throughout the entire district of Mid West
Kent, tiro late genial rains and warm ninny weather having
proved exceedingly beneficial to the bop plants, which are
now growing strong and luxuriously. In some of the more
exposed gardens the plants have a sickly appearance, the
cold ungenial weather which prevailed until within the
last week or two having proved very disastrous to the
plants in many districts. The reports from Ran Kent
describe the hop aphis as being very much on the in-
crease, as many as sixty to seventy insects being counted
on one leaf. The remedial measures about to be taken,
however, by many of the large growers there
is little doubt, have the effect of getting rid
of these pests, the Lords of the Treasury having, on the
memanl• of some of the largest growers, consented to the
manufacture of a tobacco mixture, according to the recom-
mendation of Professor Dr. Volecker, to apply on the hop-
bine affected with vermin. In the West Kent plantations
the hop gardens present a luxurious appearance, the young
bine throwing out their midsummer shoots, the plants
giving promise of yielding a fair average crop. Much,
however, will depend on the weather during the next few
weeks, the hop plant being exceedingly sensitive to sudden
changes in the temperature. In the face of the reports
from the several districts the hop trade is very firm, while
prices take an upward tendency.
