METROPOLITAN SEWERS COMMISSION.—A special court
was held yesterday, at which Sir John Shelley moved the
following resolution :--" That the whole question of the
main drainage north of the Thames be not taken into
consideration until the various plans recently proposed,
or which may be, before the first Tuesday in April next,
laid before the commission, fur such drainage, be brought
before the court, and due time for consideration on such

were also agree to.
EXTRAORDINARY COACH ACCIDENT.—A few days ago
the mail coach which runs between Barnstaple and Ilfra-
combe, in the north of Devonshire, was found in a most
extraordinary position, about a mile and a-half from the
latter town. The horses, with the pole of the coach,
were discovered mounting a hedge at the turn of a road,
and the driver, a man named Faker, was lying on the
ground, much injured and speechless. Fortunately
there were no passengers in the vehicle. 'Whether the
driver was taken ill or the horses became unmanageable
it is impossible to say, as the poor fellow has not spoken
since, and still lies in a precarious state.

INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT (ENGLAND AND BELGIUM).
—Yesterday appeared the copy of a convention between
her Majesty and the Kirg of the Belgians for the esta-
blishment of international copyright, signed in Lou-
den on the 12th day of August, 1854, and recently rati-
fied (on the 24th of January). From the date of the
convention coming into operation, the authors of works
of literature and art will be entitled to exercise the right
of property in their works (where the laws now confer
that right) in the territories of the other country, and
the protection given to original works will be extended
to translations with certain express stipulations. Dra-
matic works and the performance of musical compositions
will be included in the provisions of the conventions
in so far as the laws of each of the two countries are
applicable. Pirated works or articles will be seized and
destroyed, and such penalties levied as the laws of each
country may prescribe. Works, to be protected, must
be registered—if Belgian, at Stationers'-hall, London,
and, if English, at the office of the Belgian Minister of
the Interior in Brussels. During the continuance of
this convention the duties now payable on the importa-
tion int ) the United Kingdom of books and musical
works published in Belgium will be reduced to 15s.
per cwt., and the duties on prints or drawings to 14d.
per. lb, The duties now payable en the importation of
books, music, and prints into Belgium will be reduced ,
to and fixed at the uniform rate of 10f. per 100 kilo-
grammes. Books, &c., may still be prohibited by either Go-
vernment. The convention is to continue in force for 10
years, and from year to year, on the tacit agreement of
the contracting parties.
