SECONDARIES.-(THIN DAY.)
(Before Mr. Secondary POTTER)
CAREY r. SCHOLEY.
The plaintiff in this action is a surgeon, So., and
sought to recover the amount of a bill.
Defendant pleaded that he was not indebted, but, on
the case being called on, an arrangement was entered
into for a verdict to be taken for the plaintiff for 101.,
the question as to costs being left open to the Learned
Secondary.
The Attorney for the plaintiff said that the cause of
action arose at Woodford, in Essex, and defendant hav-
ing left that place, went to reside at Paddington, in
Middlesex, and subsequently took a situation in the
City, not on his own account, but as a clerk. As, there-
fore, ho could not be sued in the County Court, ho (the
Attorney) had to apply for a certificate to recover costs
under the 9th and 10th Victoria, c. 95, as after the
debt had accrued, the defendant had gone out of the
district.
The Learned SECONDARY said, that in this case the
superior court had a concurrent jurisdiction, and on ap-
plication to a judge it was now almost an invariable rule
to grant the costs, but he (the Learned Secondary) did
not conceive that he had the power to grant a certificate.
Plaintiff's attorney then referred to cases, but
The Learned SECONDARY declined to interfere.
This was the only case, but as many jurymen were
absent, it was intimated that if they did not attend on
the next court day, for which summonses will be issued,
they will be fined. The jurymen complain that forty-
eight are summoned, and when twelve attend the cases
are withdrawn and no remuneration to the jury for their
unnecessary attendance.

THE RIGHTS OF WO2IIEIV.
The New York Herald publishes reports of the
Women's Rights Convention which has lately held a
sitting at Syracuse, which extended over three days.
A number of resolutions were passed, asserting the
rights of women to " the emancipation of their sex
from all the slaveries of law and custom which hi-
therto have made and kept them incapable of their
heaven-appointed mission." In defining the rights
for which they were striving, and which they
" intended to obtain," Mrs. J. Elizabeth Jones,
of Ohio, said the chief point of their demand
was " the right to vote ; that included all other rights.
She was anxious to obtain a seat in the legislative
hall, on the judicial bench, or to fill the chair of the
executive. For herself, she was not one of those who
talked much about women's rights. She took them
without saying anything about them." Mr. Governor
Brigham, the great " light" of the Mormon coin-
munity, raised a slight storm by expressing his con-
viction " that the feminine element in human nature
was, in all respects, a subjective element, and the
masculine the executive." The ladies would not
admit the truth of the proposition. A woman
was equal to a man at any time, and had as much
right to take a part in the deliberations of the State,
the administration of the law, in the dispensing of
physic, or in anything else connected with the
social state. The effervescence which had been
called into action by Mr. Brigham's expression
was increased to a boiling agitation by a Rev.
Gentleman, named Hatch, having the audacity
to tell this assemblage of strong-minded women
" that the feminine element which gave to
the softer sex all their influence and consi-
deration was a modesty in raiment, and a re-
tiring disposition which prevented them from coming
forward in public with the shrill clarion or brazen
trumpet ; and that true woman was like the modest
violet, half concealed, rather than the sunflower,
which glares upon everybody and calls upon men to
admire it." Some further remarks from the same
gentleman raised such a hubbub about his ears that
he was glad to make a precipitate retreat, whereupon
"‘ the ladies" cheered vehemently. The business was
wound up by the singing of a doxology, and the con-
vention was adjourned sine die.

Lord Willoughby de Eresby has arrived at Grims-
thorpe Castle, Lincolnshire, from Ormewood Castle, Perth-
shire. The Noble Lord Great Chamberlain is expected in
London at the close of the month to transact official business
in his department connected with the opening of the new
Parliament.

The venerable Right Hon. John Wilson Croker,
who is staying at Folkestone, with Sir George Barrow, has
improved in health. On the occasion of the Duke of Wel-
lington's last visit to Folkestone, on the Saturday previous
to his demise, he paid Mr. Croker a visit.
The Rev. Dr. Stewart, of Broughshane, a distin-
guished Presbyterian minister, died on the evening of Sun-
day last.
TRICKS UPON TRAVELLERS.—We had always in-
nocently imagined that when a Railway Company professed
to give a return ticket they meant some advantage to the
passengers, who, by taking it, bound themselves to come
back at a given time, or to lose the money they had paid.
Those who manage the South-Eastern line, and who seem to
delight in a little trickery, will undeceive the travellers who
have this natural impression. The first-class fare to Rams-
gate by the half-past twelve o'clock train is lOs ; and when
we went to Ramsgate, on Saturday, to see poor Pugin's
church, we were told a return ticket could be had, available
for a fast train at half-past seven the next night, and paid
17s. 6d. for it, thinking the allowance sufficiently small.
Behold,. however, on reaching Ramsgate we found the fare
to Landon by-the aforesaid train was Bs. (" 10 feet from the
head to the tail, and a feet from the tail to the head') so
that by risking 7s. 6d. and putting an obstacle in the way of
another day's stay, we had saved arpence ! The secretary
may think this a good joke:. to our minds it seems a silly
insult to common sense.—Builder.
HYDROCARBON CANNEL GAS. -- The commis-
sioners of Southport have published the details of four
months' working with boghead cannel and waterelatsAmbry-

the more surprising that a result so gratifying is obt in dis
when the whole cost for labour and fuel is charged again%i
the small quantity of gas required during the summer
months. The gas at Southport is charged 6s. Bd. per 1,000
feet. The consumption in the period embraced in the above
return is under 3,000 feet per day, although it is 30,0 in
Scotland,
at The cannel was brought by railway from

feet per day there is the same interest on capital and about
the same charge for labour that would be on the 30,000.
All the Scotch cannels, from their richness, suit admirabelsy,
for this system, and are far superior to any English cannels,
so much so that it is found advantageous to carry them by
railway above 200 miles in preference to using the English_
cannels. A new source of traffic and profit is thus opened
up for Scotland, and not previously imagined.—Liverpool
Courier.
EFFECTS OF FREE-TRADE.—Mr. William Smith's
herd of pure-bred short. horned cattle was disposed of on
Thursday last, by public auction, at West Rasen. The at-
tendance of buyers was great, many coming from distant
parts of the kingdom. The competition was so active as to
cause prices of great magnitude to be given. Despite the
melancholy croakings of protection societies, free trade ap-
pears not to have depressed the energies of our farmers, but
to have stimulated them, or they never would be found bid-
ding such high prices for breeding stock.—Lincolnshire
Times.
Tan BEULAH SPA.—Yesterday this delightful spot
was opened for the purpose of exhibiting all kinds of
autumnal flowers, fruit, &c., for which prizes were awarded of
various amounts, besides which the company were gratified
with all kinds of sports suited to the season of the year, ac..
companied by three efficient bands. which added greatly to
the general effect, the whole performance concluding with a
brilliant display of fireworks, manufactured by Chevalier
Mortram. We trust that Mr. kasters will receive that pa-
tronage from the public his spirited management deserves.
MENTAL EXCITEMENT.—So long as excessive men-
tal excitement is kept up, but little relief can be obtained
from the strictest attention to dietetics. Abstinence from
mental toil, cheerful company, a country excursion, and re-
laxation of mind will soon accomplish a cure, when all the
dietetic precepts and medicines in the world would prove in-
efficacious.
Dr. Anderson, chemist to the Highland Society,
has been appointed by the Crown to the Chemical Chair in
the Glasgow University.—Scotsman.
