lity with which it discharged all its engagements, and
the strict observance of public faith ? It was really
too bad, too scandalous to be defended for a mo-

meal

At length Lord COTTENHAM, when Chancellor,
appointed four eminent barristers, assisted by a jury
of fourteen persons, to examine the claim. That

jury returned an unanimous verdict that all the
statements contained in the petition of right, and
on which the claim was founded, were proved. The
Attorney-General traversed the finding, but he also
pleaded the Statute of Limitations, which was consi-
dered fatal in law to the claim. The matters of
fact were, however, submitted to a second jury, who
again found in favour of the claimant, confirming the
finding of the first jury in every particular.
Other technical objections not going to the
merits of the case were, however, raised,
and thus the present claimant, the third Baron,
who succeeded to the rights of his late father, was
delayed, and his unquestionable rights detained from
him.

To his lasting honour, Lord LYNDHURST has taken
up the cast'. Not, as he himself stated, " for the
sake of the claimant alone, but for the character,
honour, and dignity cf this great country." The re-
sult has been the appointment of a Select Committee
to inquire into the circumstances of the case. This

will, we have no doubt, lead to complete although tardy
justice, and that not only to the Baron DE BODE,
but also to others, such as those entitled to what are
termed the Danish claims, and the representatives of
Mesdames ROBSON and ANJSLIE, whose case in some
degree resembles that of the Baron DE BODE.

THE TRADE OF INVERNESS.--It is curious to note
how trade may be created in a district, or directed to it from
others, by the exertions, perhaps, of a single enterprising
individual. Inverness at one time possessed a reputation for
a large trade in wines, far as it is from the clime of the grapes,
and it still deserves the name; but now it seems to be getting
popular in other quarters of the globe for various kinds of
manufactured goods, to supply which the excellent mill at
Holm, and the mills of Elgin and Forres, are laid under con-
stant contribution, but for many things which cannot be
produced locally. For some time back it has been a thing of
constant occurrence to see active carpenters hoisting in, and
nimble tinsmiths, with hot iron and solder in hand, dancing
round, huge boxes at the door of the Tartan Warehouse
here, closing up goods addressed to Calcutta, or Penang, or
Bombay, or Hong-Kong, or Shanghae, or Sydney—great
boxes, containing large assortments of splendid goods, of
local as well as south country manufacture. One box lately
dispatched contained more than eleven hundred Kilmarnock
bonnets, destined for the supply of an entire Indian regiment,
with not fewer than 1,300 sets of brass numbers for the caps !
Large supplies of good tweeds and fine goods have also been
dispatched from the same house to meet the wants of the
gold-spending as well as gaining "diggers" in Australia. It
is something new, certainly, in Inverness, and whatever the
credit due, it must be ascribed to the activity and restless
enterprise of Mr. MacDougall.—lnverness courier.

a notice being sent to the members that a communi-
cation was to be made by the Government. The
communication in question consisted of several Bills,
which were transmitted in the usual manner from the
Minister of State to M. BILLAULT, the President. This
last named gentleman stated to the House that
these Bills related, Ist, to the jurisdiction of the
Consuls of France in China and in the states of
the Imaum of MUSCAT ; 2dly, to an annual credit
of 300,000 f. to be expended in pensions to

for the monument to be erected to the memory
of the late Archbishop of PARIS, killed in the insur-
rection of June ; 4thly, a credit of 10,588 f. for the
payment of works executed at the tomb of the Em-

The Nouvelliste de Rouen of the 10th says :
" Yesterday the central commissary, aided by the
commissaries of police, continued the interrogatory of
the journeymen carpenters. Seventy-eight of them, who
had retained to better ideas, have been set at liberty.
It has resulted from what they say, that they had com-
mitted no other fault than to yield, through weakness, to
the influence of the leaders of the strike. These work-
men have promised to return to their work. As to the
twenty-three others who remain in prison, there are
grave charges against them. Yesterday everything re-
mauled perfectly quiet in the workshops."
The Proceedings before the court-martial at Mont-
pellier relative to the insurrection at Bedarieux in
December are still going on, and are likely to con-
tinue for several days. The leading facts of this
case have been stated by us from the indictment.
The evidence of the numerous,witnesses already ex-
amined fully established all that has been charged
against many
of the prisoners, and even shows in a
still stronger light the horrible character of the of

two of the murdered gendarmes.
The Tribunal of Correctional Police was occupied
the whole of Friday in bearing pleadings in the affair
of the five brewers, accused of having sold adulterated
eider, and thereby occasioned serious sickness and
even death. The Substitute of the Procureur of the
Republic supported the prosecution in a speech of
great length. The Tribunal postponed judgment for
a week. The Droit states that CHAUSSE, one of the
victims of the defendants, who had been for some
time seriously ill, died on Thursday.
The Prince of CAPUA, brother of the King of
NAPLES, who has been residing in Paris for the
