Immediate reparation was demanded.

THE SIEGE OF CHARLESTON.

To describe it in a few words, the appearance o
Sumter is that of a huge honeycomb, manufactured
disfigured by the where a few re-
mainingby gigantic bees for the gratification of the gods.
The only part of the fort which bears any traces of
identity
arches,
st:ollth-w considerablyes
tangle,
showers of iron hail which have assailed them, are
the only evidences of former architectural ornament.
The balance of the southern wall, exposed so long
to powerful and well-directed guns, is a mountain
of pulverised brick and mortar, without a lino to
indicate J 3 hap° or a single. feature of design. The
eastern or sea face, which is exposed to the ffre both
of ships and shore batteries, is, perhaps, the most
demolished of all, battered and banged and crushed
worse than the countenance of any prize-fighter who
had been hammered to a jelly; the great hole that
yawns at the sea, as if it would swallow even her if
she would but leap into its throat, seeming like the
entrance to Chaos. Into the rough heaps of debris
the shells go plunging, here crumbling a pile of stuff
away and there throwing up another, to be scattered,
may be, by the very next shot. The walls are now
perfectly capable of being sealed, from 2ft. to 21ft.
having been shot away within the past eight days.
Perhaps no grander example of stern, stubborn re-
sistance exists in all modern warfare than the per-
sistent holding of this point by the rebels ; certainly
history does not record one. The flag raised each
time, the sunset gun, the watchful sentinels through
the night, when at intervals the monstrous dogs
of war howl out their deadly rage, cannot fail
to stir in the hearts of all men that feeling of
respect which the true soldier always has
for a brave and determined foe. The Charleston

LAW INTELLIGENCE---This Day.

COURT OF DIVORCE.
(Before the Judge-Ordinary.)
HUDSON V. HUDSON.

His Lordship gave judgment in this case, which, it will
be recollected, was before the Court a few da3s ago. It was
a suit for judicial separation on the ground of cruelty, pre-
sented to the Court by the wife. The parties were in a
respectable position in life, the husband being a farmer.
The petitioner complained that her husband brought home
parties to supper with whom she could not associate--that
he had threatened to "do" for her—and on one occasion
when he took her out for a drive he wilfully upset the chaise,
by which she was thrown out, and ho expressed his regret
that she had not been killed. The respondent denied many
of the allegations in the petition, and the Court took time
to consider its decision.

His Lordship this morning said he could not come to the
same conclusion as the petitioner respecting the upsetting
of the chaise. It was said by the respondent that it was
raining at the time, and the accident was caused by her
holding her umbrella before his eyes. He was, it appeared,
also devotedly attacted to his child, who was there at the
time, and he did not think it was likely he would have
wished to injure it. Under all the circumstances of the
case he should dismiss the petition.

wich in readiness for embarkation. They atterwards held

MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

A fair amount of business has been transacted
this morning in the general discount market, where
the mercantile public are:obtaining accommodation
on three months' bills at six per cent., with
occasional concessions of I- under that term. The
advices received from Frankfort regarding
a panic which prevails there in mone-
tary affairs, have not as yet influenced
to any appreciable extent the market
here. Bankers and brokers, whose capital had been
lying idle for so long a time, now appear anxious
to employ it at the current rates, although they are
still evincing great prudence and unwilling to lock
it up in long-dated securities.
The 26th inst. has been fixed for a special settle-
ment in the City Bank new shares, and the Ist pros.
in the Land Mortgage Bank of India, dealings in
which are to be recorded in the official lists.

To describe it in a few words,
faorhutghee honeycomb,
The only part of the fort which bears any traces of
identity is the south-west angle, where a few re-
maining arches, considerably disfigured by the
showers of iron hail which have assailed them, are
the only evidences of former architectural ornament.
The balance of the southern wall, exposed so long
to powerful and well-directed guns, is a mountain
of pulverised brick and mortar, without a line to
indicate shape or a single feature of design. The
eastern or sea face, which is exposed to the fire both
of ships and shore batteries, is, perhaps, the most
demolished of all, battered and banged and crushed
worse than the countenance of any prize-fighter who
had been hammered to a jelly ; the great hole that
yawns at the sea, as if it would swallow even her if
she would but leap into its throat, seeming like the
entrance to Chaos. Into the rough heaps of debris
the shells go plunging, here crumbling a pile of stuff
away and there throwing uP another, to be scattered,
may be, by the very next shot. The walls are now
perfectly capable of being scaled, from 2ft. to 2ft.
having been shot away within th,e past eight days.
Pechaps no grander example of stern, stubborn re-
sistance exists in all modern warfare than the per-
sistent holding of this point by the rebels; certainly
history does not record one. The flag :aised each
time, the sunset gun, the watchful sentinels through
the night, when at intervals the monstrous., dogs
of war howl out their deadly rage, cannot fctil
to stir in the hearts of all men that feeling of
respect which the true soldier always has
, for t brave and determined foe. The Charleston,

self, but he is allowed to make any statement he
pleases, his statements of course being regarded
with suspicion. Why should not the same liberty
be accorded to the wife •of the accused ? Without
being compelled to criminate her husband, why
may not her evidence as to facts be listened to—as
the evidence of the culprit is listened to, with sus-
picion and incredulity perhaps, but still with the
possibility that it may serve to elucidate the truth'
The readers of Mr. Wills' powerful pages, who
sympathise with the cruel heart-throes of poor
Eleanor, will be solicitous, one and all, for some
amelioration of the law which may render such a
case as her's an impossibility. To strengthen the
force of his appeal, and exhibit the unnatural
anomaly of the law, Mr. Wills has introduced an
episode of peculiar painfulness. Eleanor has a child,
a little son of seven years old, who, by a sad
fatality, had slept in the room in which the
murder had been committed. The boy had been
aroused after the murderer had left the room, and had
beheld his father with the instrument of death that
he had wrenched from the murderer's hand. This
boy, unknown to his mother, is cross-questioned by
the servants, and placed in the witness-hex. His
guileless, inconsiderate evidence seals his father's
doom, Here is a glimpse of this powerfully written
and most heart-rending scene :

London-bridge to Westminster-bridge on the south
side of the river is not at all formidable, and Guy's
Hospital remains to answer the more immediate
wants of the old neighbourhood. Besides, the city
has grown to the west far more than to the east, it
continues to grow in the same direction, and it is
not unreasonable that the Hospital should to some
extent advance with the population. Indeed, the
mere removal of the Hospital may prove an advan-
tage. Guy's and St. Thomas's were unreasonably
near each other, and to separate them may very
much increase their usefulness. Two large Hos-
pitals within a stone's throw of each other is too
much for any neighbourhood, and, so long as St.
Thomas's is not entirely divorced from its original
purpose, it will be just as well that it should come
within the reach of the western population. The
fact brought forward by a member of one of the
deputations on Tuesday, that more out-patients
have been treated at the Hospital during the time
it has been at the Surrey Gardens than in any cor-
responding time of its old situation, seems to prove
that it has been brought within the range of a.
population which requires its help. The fact, how-
ever, only serves to show the advtantage of re-
moving it from its old site, and throws no light
upon the relative advantages of the Surrey Gardens
and the Stangate sites. It is very possible thatifhe
just
the same result might have been arrived at t
Hospital had been removed at once to Stangate.
The founders of our old Hospitals would probably
have be©n astonished if they could have witnessed
the public interest which has been excited about the
removal of St. Thomas's. When they founded si
simple benevolent institution they could never have
imagined that the question of its site would be hotly
debated by all the parishes of Southwark, that it
would engage the active attention of the public
press, and would even be considered a knot worthy
the interference of so great a divinity as the Home
Secretary. But hospitals, like colleges, have become
no longer private or independent establishments,
but great public institutions, indissolubly bound up
with the well-being of the community. Hospitals
are now as necessary an element in our social orga-
nisation as courts of law and universities. With
the vast increase of our population they have become
' absolutely essential to the general health, and if
they did not happily exist by private munificence,
It would be necessary to establish them by public
authority. In short, they are institutions of a not
merely charitable, but a necessary public use, and.
the public, therefore, have a right to expect that
they will be managed with the best possible regard.
to the general advantage. It is satisfactory that the
L governors of St. Thomas's have at least not disre-
garded this claim.

In this case, at the last election of councillors for Bolton,
Mr. Thirlwin was elected by a majority of one, for one of

JORDAN V. GIBBONS.'
This was an action against Colonel Gibbons for giving the
plaintiff into custody for creating a disturbance in a house
in which the colonel had lodgings. It was tried before the
Lord Chief Justice in this court at the last sittings, and as
it was not proved that the plaintiff had committed an
assault or an actual breach of the peace, the Lord Chief
Justice was of opinion that he was entitled to a verdict, as
there:was no justification for giving him into custody,
although there was for removing him out of the house,
and the jury gave him -£2O damages. There was a motion
for a new trial, but it was refused, as the direction was
right ; but the Court granted a rule to reduce the damages,
on which
Mr. Kerslake, Q.C., now appeared, and intimated that
