THE BARK SCIENCE.

Mr. HASSA.RD asked the Under Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs if it was true that, upon the last day ap-
pointed for the adjudication at New Orleans upon the case
of the bark Science, seized at Matamoros, viz., the 23d of
January last, no appearance was made on the part of the
captors, nor was any future day appointed for the hearing
of the case; and, in the event of these facts being true, if
her Majesty's Government would demand the immediate
release of said vessel ?
Mr. LAYARD said that the Government was not in
possession of any information on the subject.
MR. WHITWORTH'S GUNS.

In reply to Mr. GREGORY,
Mr. C. FORTESCUE said that Mr. Whitworth had not
supplied guns of an adequate calibre to enable the Govern-
ment to test them effectually.
DESPATCIIES ON DANISH AFFAIRS.
Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Under Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs, whether there was not in the papers on
Danish affairs a despatch from himself to Sir A. Paget, of
date of the 30th November, 1803, to which an answer was
returned by Sir A. Paget from Copenhagen, dated the Ist
December, 1863, and how hs accounted for so rapid an
answer if the transmission of the first despatch was not by
telegraph ?
Mr. LAYAItD said that as it was impossible to travel
from London to Copenhagen in 21 hours, the communica-
tion referred to must have been made by the medium of the
telegraph.
THE EASTER RECESS.
In reply to Mr. MILLS,
Lord PALMERSTON said the adjournment of the
house for the Easter recess would be regulated by the state
of business. (Laughter.)
THE CRAWLEY COURT MARTIAL.
Lord lIOTHAM gave notice that on a future he would
draw the attention of the house to this subject.

Charles Wiseman surrendered to an indictment charging

A LUCKY ESCAPE.

A lad named Orr was found guilty of stealing a pair of
trousers. He had formerly been sentenced to four years'
residence in a reformatory.
The Recorder said it appeared he was intent on doing
wrong, and, as he had been previously convicted, he should
sentence him to six years' penal servitude.
In a minute or two after the learned Judge discovered
the former conviction had not been charged, and under the
circumstances ho would alter the sentence to two years'
imprisonment.
The prisoner seemed much pleased with the decision of
the learnel Judge, and thanked his lordship as he left the
deck.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

COMMITTAL WITHOUT A FINE FOR ASSAULT—A
DANGEROUS FELLOW.—George Humble, a man with only
one arm, described as a painter, of 27, Castle street,
Holborn, was charged as follows :
From the evidence of George Castles, 69 C, it appeared
that on the previeus night he was called to the shop of a
tradesman in Oxford-street to remove the prisoner, who
was making a great disturbance. He requested the pri-
soner to go away, when he said that if he (Castle) "laid a
finger on him he would smash his head." He then
took the prisoner into custody, when he became very
violent, and it required four constables to take him to the
station. While on the way there a person called out
"mind the knife," and on looking in the prisoner's hand,
an open knife was found, The prisoner threatened to " do"
for one of the constables.
Edward Rowlett, 145 C, proved going to the assistance
of Castle and being thrown down by him, and also kicked
in a tender part.
In his defence the prisoner said he •had just come from
Scotland, and that he had fallen in R ith some friends, who
gave him a little drink, which had a great effect on his
head, as it had always done since he had lost his arm.
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the constables said the pri-
soner was not sober.
Mr. Tyrwhitt committed him for a month.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The supply of home-grown wheat received fresh up to
this morning's market was very moderate, but there were
several samples of Monday's unsold produce wn the stands.
The condition of the produce was unsatistactory. For all
qualities the trade was in a sluggish state, yet no quotable
change took place in prices, compared with Monday.
With foreign wheat the market was moderately sup-
plied. The transactions were for the most part in retail
qualities at about stationary prices.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
There was a full average supply of barley on the stands,
good and fine.

Malting parcel 3 ruled firm in price ; otherwise the trade
was dull on former terms.

Malt changed hands to a very moderate extent, at late
rates.

The supply of oats on sale was tolerably large. The trade
for all descriptions was dull, at about previous prices.
Beans and peas were a dull inquiry, at fully tho late de-
cline in the currency.
In flour only a moderato business was transacted, at late
prices.

STATE OF TRADE,

MANCHESTER, March I.—The market for ship-
ping yarns has been very quiet ; very little busi-
ness has been done, and, generally speaking, prices
aro weaker for all counts, though hardly to an ex-
tent which will admit of quotation. There have
been several offers made at low prices for various
counts of yarn, but, so far, spinners have declined
to accept them. This branch of the market closes
very quiet, and certainly without any improvement,
in any sense, as compared with last week. The
absence of India telegrams has had a quieting effect.
For home trade yarns there has been but little in-
quiry, and prices are also slightly in favour of
buyers in this class of spinnings. The cloth-
market is quite as dull as that for yarns, but
still prices are tolerably well maintained, except
in cases where pods have been pressed on
the market, and in such instances sellers have had
to accept a shade less in price than they would have
taken last week. Buyers evidently lack confidence
in present rates, and they have been influenced for
some weeks past by the operations of speculators
who have been seeking to influence the market by
effecting time bargains akin to what on the Stock
Exchange would bo called " hearing transactions.'
While merchants evidently have no great faith in
these parties, they are sufficiently influenced ity
them to act with greater caution than usual, and in
some instances even a slight reduction of prices has
failed to induce them to operate.

LEEDS, ie.—There has not been much business
done in the cloth-halls to-day. Being the monthly
pay-day of many of the merchants to the clothiers,
purchases were in constquecce a little checked.
The market was firm as to prices, and a few parcels
otfi'sup r
eri nlngan gosod ws i
n wteey
but, as the weather
madei p;
tiusupprehended that the
s remains
spring and summer trade will become more than
ordinarily amalgamated. There is a fair trade doing
for Canada, our A ob.tralian colonies, and China, and
even a to!Airable amount of goods arc shipping to
Germany. The manufacturers, upon the whole,
aro scorcely so brisk as they wore a short time ago,
yet there is no ab,oluze slackness. There is no
change in the prieeot wool.

tunnels, They now hal 190 yards finished of the smaller

of the company's station at the Crystal Palace. Of 411,000
cubic yards of excavation through the whole line, 200,000
had to be made in this cutting. Of the 411,000 cubic yards
of earthwork, 1,350 yards had been completed, There had

following advantages :—A set of teeth, of excellent work-
manship and mechanism, can be made and fitted with the
most perfect accuracy and success, in a few hours, without
pain or extraction of stumps, and to answer all the purposes
of mastication and articulation. They are fitted without
wires or fastenings, and adapt themselves so perfectly to the
gums, that they are quite immoveable, except at the option
of the wearer. Invalids or residents in the country can ad-
just these teeth to many changes of the mouth without the
aid of a dentist. They are not so liable to injury, are always
useful, and will last a lifetime. Comfort guaranteed. Trea-

CHURCH RATES COMMUTATION BILL.
This bill (Mr. Nowdegate's), which stood for second
reading to-day, and to which Sir C. Douglas was to move
as an amendment that it be read a second time this day six
months, has been postponed matil the 27th of April.
THE MALT DUTIES.

half of the Crown, between the 13th day of March, 1863,
and the Ist day of March, 1864 ; setting forth the date of
such claim, description of treasure, estimated value, and
how disposed of (in continuation of Parliamentary Paper,
No. 131, of Session 1863). The motion was agreed to.

CHAIN CABLES AND ANCHORS BILL.
Mr. LAIRD moved that the house should go into coal
mittee on this bill.

Mr. M. GIBSON wished to propose that before going
into committee of the whole house on this bill it would be
very desirable that it should be referred to a select commit-
tee. The subject was one of a very special kind, and many
technical points had to be considered for the good working
of the measure. It was desirable for all parties that the
bill should undergo a very strict investigation before a
select committee. It was not an unfrequent course for the
hcuse to adopt in oases of this kind, and there were two or
three points in the bill which it was very necessary a select
committee should well weigh. He moved as an amendment
that the bill be referred to a select committee.

Mr. W. CRAWFORD seconded the amendment, which,
after a short discussion, was agreed to.
POOR RELIEF COMMITTEE.
It was agreed that the name of Sir William Miles
should be added to the committee.
NAVAL BILLS.
Several bills connected with naval matters were brought
on by Mr. BRAND, and read a first time.
The house adjourned at 20 minutes to 1.

STAINES, WOKINGIIAM, AND WOICING.

Tho half-yearly meeting of this company was held on
Friday at the offices in Lincoln's • inn-fields ; Mr. J. Garrard
in the chair.

The report was taken as read.
The CHAIRMSN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said that, though the traffic for the past half -year had re
trograded, the traffic for the past year showed a decided in-
crease, as compared with former years. Some of the schemes
before Parliament for railways to their line, if carried out,
would act as feelers to it.

Mr. WILKIN seconded the motion, which was unani-
mously adopted ; and a dividend at the rate of 1 per cent.
per annum on the ordinary stock was declared.
The retiring directors, Mr, J. Garrard and Mr. R. W.
Kennard, were to elected, and also Mr. Prideaux, the re-
tiring auditor.

ON CHLORATE OP POTASSA AND ITS USE IN OXYDISING

THE BLOOD.
DR. J. P. SARGEANT, M.R.C.S., and L.S.A.
(1836', will shortly repeat his Lecture on this subject
at St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, and will satisfactorily prove
that Chlorate of Potassa, (as prepared by passing chlorine
through a mixture of quick-lime and water, and subsequently
boiling a long time with Chloride of Potassium) is a most
active remedy for oxydising the blood, and restoring vitality
to the low, vitiated state of the nervous system, and is there-
tore calculated to supersede the use of iron, mercury, quinine,
and sarsaparilla.-66, Gower-street, Bedford-square, London.

Melancholy Occurrence to a Barrister.

Yesterday afternoon Dr. Lankester, coroner for
Central Middlesex, and a jury of inhabitants of
Mary lebone, assembled in the dining-room of the
house, No. 100, Gloucester-place, Portman-square,
to investigate as to the death of its late owner,
Richard Leigh Trafford, Esq., barrister-at-law, aged
63.

The evidence went to show that the unfortunate
gentleman, who had formerly been a county court
judge, bad retired from his office on account of grow-
ing infirmities and deafness, On the previous Fri-
day evening about 6 o'clock, he went out for a walk,
and was crossing the road from Gloucester-park to-
wards George-street, Portman-square, when a cart,
driven by a youth named James Fellars, came sud-
denly round the corner of George-street; the youth
called to the deceased, who had got two or three
paces from the kerb, three or four times, and endea-
voured to pull up, but before he could do so the horse
struck the deceased and knocked him down, and the
right-hand wheel passed over his body. The wit-
nesses generally concurred that, in their belief, had
deceased not been deaf he might have heard the
youth call out and have escaped. They also said that
the cart was not being driven at a furious pace, and
they did not attribute blame to the driver. The
deceased's servant, who was some few yards behind
him, going in the same direction, ran and assisted
him up, and he was able to walk to his residence, but
a short distance off. He complained of being much
hurt, and Dr. W. J. Little was sent for and found
he had sustained very severe injury to the ribs and
side by the cart going over him. He died on Thurs-
day morning. The impression on the mind of de-
ceased, who was quite sensible, was, that the driver
had not sufficient control over the horse.

James Feliars, who was before the court, and
professionally represented, offered to make a state-
ment, but the jury thought it unnecessary, and re-
turned a verdict of " Accidental death."

THE PIICENIX GAS COMPANY.

Mr. TAYLOR. introduced a deputation from the
inhabitants of Lambeth and Vauxhall, and presented
a memorial, praying the board to oppose in Parlia-
ment a bill promoted by the Phenix Gas Company,
for enabling the company to purchase land and con-
struct works in the line of the future extension of
the Southern Embankment. Mr. Taylor observed
that if the proposed works were carried out it would
have a very injurious effect upon the health of the
inhabitants, particularly as largo gas works already
existed.

A memorial was also presented from the vestry of
St. Mary, Lambeth, praying the board to oppose
the bill.

After some slight discussion, the memorials were
referred to the Thames Embankment Committee.

A report was brought up from the Main Drainage
Committe, recommending that the several articles of
antiquity discovered in carrying out the Main
Drainage works be handed over to the authorities
of the British Museum for deposit in that institu-
tion.

THE POWERS OF THE BOARD.

Mr. D'IFFANGER moved a resolution, that the
resolution of the board of Jan. 15, granting the ap-
plication of Mr. Jones, on behalf of Messrs. Mar-
shall and Snelgrove, for the approval by the board
of the line of frontage, for a building at the corner
of Marylebone-lane, Oxford-street, be rescinded.
He observed that the board had granted permission
to Messrs. Marshall and Snelgrove to build over five
feet of the public pavement, which was the pro-
perty of the vestry of Marylebone, The board had
granted that which they had no power to do, and
it was an iniringement upon the privileges of the
vestry.

A report was read from the architect to the effect
that the proposed building would be a great im-
provement to the neighbourhood, and would not
interfere with the frontage.
After some discussion the resolution was
negatived.
