posed out of the half-year's profit.; to add the sum of

81st December last, sod it appeared that after the usual
deductions, and also after ma 'bog allowance for bad and
doubtful debts to the fall amount recommended by the
inspector, there remained to the credit of profit and loss
the sum of 43,0414/. 48.10 d, out of which the directors recom-
mend that a dividend be declared for the half-year, of 3.
per cent. free of femme tax, 24,5001. • and that • sum o

tioner; Mr. Huddlorton, 44. c., and Mr. J. E. Palmer fur
the respondent; and Dr. Weather for the on•reepoudent
Frith. Whitfield did not appear.

The petitioner, Mr. Thomas Newton, a hardware mer-
chant at Sheffield, married the respondent on the 14th of

Rhoda Baylis Hall, and it was admitted that her previous
life had been immoral. Mr. Newton had lived with her
before marriage, and had in fact taken her out of the streets.
It was alleged on his behalf, however, that he had always
behaved like a careful and affectionate husband. Hie Masi-
neat required him to be absent for periods of four
or five weeks at a time, and three or four
times a year, so that he was away for about
• third of the twelve months. Latterly he had provided hie
wife with a companion, ao that she might always have some
one to watch over her. The principal witness against her was
a servant named Sarah Ann Elliott, who was still in the em-
ployment of the petitioner. She stated that when the peti-
tioner was absent the respondeut was in the habit of going
out at night, keeping late boars, and sometimes not coming
home till the next day. Witness used to remonstrate with
her, and told her that if she did not wale home earlier
she would see where she went. Mrs. Newton then
said she would take her oat with her. Amordingly
they went one night to a Casino, bait after staying
there • little time they went to some ringing rooms,
where they were joined by the eo-respoodent Whitfield,

THE FRIENDS OP POLAND.

Yesterday afternoon the 29th annual general
meeting of the Literary Association of the Friends of
Poland was held at their rooms, Suasex-chambers, Duke-
'treat, St. James's. The Marquis Townahend, the presi-
dent. occupied the chair. Among the gentlemen present
were the FAA' of Harrino, Ilehester, &island, Her-
rowby, and Shaftesbury, Lmds Ebury, Talbot de Mals.
bide, Kinsale, and Miyake', Mr. M'Evoy, M.P., Mr.
Greven, M.P. Mr. W. H. Gore Langton, M.P., Mr. B.
Westhead, M. 1., Mr. More O'Ferrall, M.P., Prince Czar-
toryski, General Count Zamoyeki, and other distinguished
Poles. The report, read by Mr. L &rhea, embodied a
detailed history of recent events at Warsaw, and denounced
the brutality of the Russian government. In supporting a
motion for its adoption, Prince L. Cza toryski remarked
that the presegi6incture peculiarly demanded the active
solicitude of d. The unanimity of all classes of
his countrymen been made palpable, arid it proved
beyond all doubt the fallacy of the notion that the
Polish nationality was dead. He concluded by expressing
his conviction that if England would but extend her moral
support to Poland the regeneration of the country would
be soon effected. The Harlot Hamster then moved, "That
the noble soil exemplary forbearance exhibited by the
people of Warsaw, under the late most trying circum-
stances, evinces an unparalleled degree of patriotic resolu-
tion and power of self-control ; and that the Poles having
thereby given proof of moral heroism and great civic quali-
ties, in addition to that personal and chivalrous devotion of
which they had previously shown so many bright examples,
have acquired a fresh title to the sympathy of Europe, and
• new claim to have stipulations inserted in the treaties on
wbich the peace of Europe depends, with the view of pre-
serving their national existence, and endowing them with
constitutional institutions, no longer, as hitherto, recklessly,
contemptuously, and systematically violated." Mr.
Monckton Milnea, M.P., in seconding the resolution, which
was carried unanimously, alluded m feeling terms to the
death of Count Cavour, and expressed his conviction that
there never was such • period of hope for Poland.

THE POLICE COURTS.

Mr. Richard Bur;l7n, coachamTtc:gilver-atreet, Notting-
' hill, was summoned by the police for causing an obstruction
in the thoroughfare by allowing three street railway
carriages to stand in the road opposite his premises.
The defendant pleaded guilty to the carriages standing in
the road, but he had a reason to explain.
Mr. Layman said there were two summonses for two
different occasions, and he wished to know if he pleaded
guilty to both.
The defendant answered in the affirmative.
Poliee.constable 54 T said on the 27th ult. he maw the
ear imps standing in the road for several hours. It Is •
narrow street, and the carriages which were those running
on the tramway at Notting-hill occupied quite half the road.
The defendant said the carriages were in the habit of
standing in his shed, but in consequence of the parish sink.
big a shaft on his premises to cleanse the sewer they wen
blocked up, and he was unable to get the carriages inside.
The sewer ran at the back of the houses and came round
through his workshop, and it was there where the shalt was
sunk.

The constable admitted that the works prevented the
carriages from goiinto the shed.
Hr. Hayman saint we. a question whether the defendant
was liable or Mr. Train. He wished to know why the
carriages were not taken elsewhere.
The defendant said they had such short notice. The
people were all flooded in their kitchens, and the parish
proceeded at osce to cleanse the sewer.
Mr. T. Blackwell, the foreman of the works for thextdb
of Kensington, was called by the defendant and confirmed
his statement. He said the shaft was sunk on the 26th,
and the works were finished on the 29th.

the first day, and be thought that he could have found •
place for thew by the neat day. The aarriages were aL.o
allowed to stand in the road on the 213th, cauaing • groat
obstruction.

Mr. Dayinan said be bed no doubt it waa a difficult
matter to find places for such large carriages, and they
could not be put away suddenly. He thought a reasonable
excuse had been given, although the public wine not to be
inconvenienced.—The 11111111110111e$ were dismissed.

THE REGENTS PARK.

Lord W. GRAHAH asked the First Commissioner of
Works whether it was with his leave and sanction that boatel
were allowed to go on the ornamental water in Regent's-
park ; whether he was aware that considerable annoyance
had ernes to the famil!es of owners of private gardens
which abut the nine, from persons lantling on or lying
alongside of these gardens ; and whether he intended to
take an steps to rrn•aly the grievant* complained of.
Itr. COWPER said that when be made the arrangement
lest summer fur hosts to ply on the ornamental water he
had received urgent remonstrances from the owners of the
adjoining property, who were afraid that their private
=wolfed be exposed to the incursions of a iniscel-
London mob, and that serious consequences would
result from stirring the stagnant water with oars. He was
happy to say that neither of then apprehensions had bees
realised, and, on the other hand, he bad received strong ex-
pressions of gnitiricatiou at the additional source of amuse-
ment sal exercise which had been afforded to clerks, shop-
keepers, and other young men employed in sedentary occu-
pations. (Hear, Lear.)

The Journal of St. Petersburg of the 25th has the
following :
Yesterday (Sunday), ►t half-past 1 o'clock in the after-
noon, a touching demonstration was witnessed at Edenbu.-g.
As the Emperor, accompanied by the Hereditary Grand
Duke, was leaving the winter palace for the weekly inspec-
tion of the Michel Riding School, • deputation of
workmen and peasants, sent by a crowd of seve-
ral thousands, assembled in the square, presented
themselves to his Majesty, and expressed to him in simple
and touching language their gratitude for the measures
which have recently accomplished the abolition of serfdom.
The Emperor, in his reply, after reminding them that eman-
cipation had been the desire and the preoccupation of his
august father, who had commenced the work, gave the de-
putation some wise and paternal advice as to the Chris-
tianly, honest, and orderly conduct, which It was necessary
that the newly-emancipated should observe If they wished

to find in their free condition all the benefits of self•respect
and interest which it can secure to them. His Majesty,
having then left the palace, was loudly applauded by the
immense crowds of people, workmen, peasants, &c., who
pressed upon his passage, and covered the vast square
throughout its extent.

ST, PETERSBURG, TOTADLT.

It is said that Prince Gortchakoff has addressed
a circular, dated the 90th ultimo, to the Russian
representatives abroad, stating " That Russia and
Europe have witnessed the proof that the Emperor,
far from deferring, takes the initiative by granting
reforms, and prosecutes them with perseverance."
" The Emperor," continues the circular, " desires
that what lie has granted should become a reality,
and open to Poland a path of regular progress."

WARSAW, TUISDAY.

Another proclamation, addressed by Prince
Gortchakoff to the people, has been published,
which says :
" The important moment compels me to again
address to you words of reason.
"The institutions which have been promised you
guarantee the dearest interests of your country,
religion, and nationality. These institutions will be
sincerely carried out.
" Avoid disturbances, which the governmeut
cannot approve, and which would iinpedo all pro-
gress."

OOTTON.—Livengoox, krsib 2.—We have an ex-
tremely quiet market to-day. There is no report of the
Niagara yet. The sales are 5.000 bales. including 4,500
Americati, at 4d. to Llid. ; :101 Surat, at 3141. to sgd., of
which 1,600 are for speculation and export. The week's
import is 64,640 bales.

COTro GOODS. MANCHESTRIL APRIL 2. The
market to-day is generally inactive awl depressed. In goods
there is a decided lICCOB6OII of dulness since this time last
week, and though there is no material change in quotations
niece then, a gloomy feeling pervades the market, sod the
tendency of prices is downwards. The buriness done to-
day has toe very trifling in amount. Printing-cloth is
still neglected. Shirtings and goods suitable for the East
are especially depressed. The great stoppage of looms
through the turnouts has had no effect on the
cloth market. The inquiry for yarns is very spirit-
less, and moat kinds are now a shade lower in value.
Blackburn yarns are especially flat. Two-folds seem to be
the articles meet in favour. Generally speaking, however,
no business can he done in yarns without a slight concession
in price, and the transactions are very inconsiderable. The
market in all departments is affected by the unfavourable
weather, the clouded aspect of political affairs on the con-
tiseat, and the absence of news from America. This after-
noon a meeting of manufacturers from the districts where
the maven are on strike, was held at the Clarence Hotel,
in this city. It appeared that there was much discrepancy
between the various price lists, and the meeting adjourned
till Tuesday next to allow time for • comparison and adop-
tion of a standard list, involving, perhaps, mane advance on
the general average.

day's market is generally of a holiday character. To-day's
has been completely so. The weather, the attendaace, and
the Mumma bare all been bad. Scarcely any wade has
been trammeled in the (loth Halls.

MANUFACTITRE9.—HUDDIMS/111.D, Aram 2—The
unsettled state of the weather operates very much against
the spring trade, which is nothing near so brisk as it usually
is at this season. The general business is also slack, and as
yet shows uo signs of improvement.
WOOLS.—HUDDRISTLIELD, APRIL 2.—There is • little
more doing in wools, at prices established by the late
Loudon sales, but manufacturers still buy with the greatest
caution.

THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER !EWELL.

An inquest was held ou Monday, at the Pomona-

of the company, with Mr. Hickson and Mr. Williams,
attended, se a mark of esteem for his character, and to
°sprees the sincere regret of the officials of the company at
his untimely end. The coroner read the following letter,
which he had received from Mr. Watkin, the general mana-
ger of the company, in whose office Mr. Rawlituon was
principal clerk :
"Manchester, April 1. 1041. —My dear Sir,-11(r. Ross will

ITALY.

The following appears in the Opinione of Turin
of Sunday last :
We have received, by a despatch from London, intelli-
gence that her Majesty Queen Victoria, in responding to the
proclamation of the kingdom of Italy, has informed the
Marquis d'Azeglio that she will receive him in future in his
official character as envoy extraordinary and minister pleni-
potentiary of his Majesty Use King of Italy. The Swiss
federal government has also announced to Chevalier Joctau
that it will be happy to continue with the government
of the King of Italy the friendly relations which it hoe
hitherto maintained with tho government of the King of
Pardinia. We have reason to believe that this official
recognition of the kingdom of Italy by England and
Switzerland will be followed ere long by a similar meg-
nition on the part of other powers.
The Unita Italiana states that General La
Marmora has withdrawn his resignation. The
same journal states that clandestine enrolments,
made contrary to the wish of Garibaldi, have been
discovered, and that the government is taking ener-
getic measures to put a stop to them.
A communication from Naples of the 26th ult.,
in the Patrie, says :
Oar tine Hungarian legion is about to receive imposing
reinforcements. This morning the C,4hise arrived from
Constantinople with 186 Hungarian volunteers, among
whom are several officers who distinguished themselves in
the war of independence of 1848. On landing they were
received by the officers of the legion, and General Veehter
congratulated them on their arrival. They soon after took
the railway and proceeded to the garrison of Nola. The
next packet from Constantinople is to bring 200 more
Hungarians. The military bearing and the discipline of the
legion is irreproachable, and the officers belong to the first
families in Hungary.

would be no safety for Italy unless she was united.
He criticised the present organisation of the
Neapolitan provinces, and proposed several reme-
dies, one of which was the suppression of the
Council of Lieutenancy.
Signor Paternostro expressed his regret that a

THE ITALIAN CHAMBER.

TURIN, WEDIMIDAT EVIMING.

In to -day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies,
the discussion on the affairs of Naples was con-
tinued :

The Minister of the Interior, in reply to the re-
marks made by Signori Msee•ri, Paternostro, and
Ricciardi, in yesterday's sitting, declared that the
inconveniences of the administration of Naples
pointed out by those members had been
exaggerated. He said he would remedy those
which really existed, and stated that government
would increase the military forces in the southern
provinces as • measure of public safety. The
minister stigmatised the accusations brought against
some public functionaries as calumnies, and refuted
the other points in the interpellation of Signor
Massari.

M. Minghetti then considered the question of
arming the National Guard, and concluded by
saying that the arguments he had adduced in regard
to Naples could be applied to Sicily. The Marquis
de Montezemolo, lieutenant of that province,
would, he said, be replaced at his own request.
The Minister of Public Works gave explanations
relative to the railway, postal, and telegraphic ser-
vice in Southern Italy, and drew attention to the
fact that several contracts for railways had been
signed.
Other deputies spoke on the question of Naples,
and the discussion became rather animated. Seve-
ral propositions, in the form of orders of the day,
were brought forward, and the debate was ad-
journed until to-morrow.

achieved—of forma seared, of laud reclaimed, of roads, and
railroads., and canals constructed, and of cities built by •
sparse and serried population, in the brief period of time
that has raped since the first peopling of the country. In
sessidering these wonderful results he bad been led to
astir the ineruity shown by the people in devising
impienesers and machinery for economising labour, which
woe saber It sassy parts of that country, and some of
them he thought wall worthy of attention and even of
simpers in Begglead. He would first touch upon agricul-
tural berplear sta. The lint be noticed was the American
axe, so well known is timber regions. Large quantities of
those axes were made by convicts in the state prisons, and

WARLIKE RUMOURS.

A lithographed correspondence issued at Paris
last evening has the following paragraph :
" It would seem that the political situation, in-
stead of clearing up, becomes more sombre. At
least such is the conclusion to be drawn from the
tenor of the most recent news, all of which points
to the prob►bility of a oonflagration in Europe. At
Paris, Marshals Niel and Canrobert have been at-
tending councils of war. It is said that Marshal
Vaillant is about to inspect the fortresses of the
northern and eastern frontiers. Marshal Mae
Mahon, who is to command the Chalons camp, is
spoken of as likely to supersede Marshal Castellano
at Lyons, the latter being removed to Toulouse to
relieve Marshal Niel, who goes to Lille."
The French fleet is ordered to Beyrout. This
movement is attributed at Paris to very serious
news lately received from Syria.
