SHILLITOE V. SHILLITOE.

This was a petition, presented by the wife, praying for
dissolution of marriage, on the ground of cruelty, adultery,
and desertion.

The parties resided at Wakefield, in Yorkshire, and were
married in 1859. Cohabitation continued for about a year,
when the reel os I ant began to treat his wife with great in-
humanity. Uttimately he left her entirely destitute, and it
was shortly after discovered that ho was living in adultery
with another woman.
The Court granted a rule nisi. _ _ .

The remainder of the causes on the list for to-day were
either struck out or placed at the bottom of the list, as the
parties engaged for the suitors were not in attendance.

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Kerr.)

THE LAW AS TO MARRIED WOMEN-NOVEL

KITT V. FORSTER.

This was an action to recover £7.8 for some furniture.
Mr. Buchanan appeared for the plaintiff, Mr. Butler
Rigby, instructed by Mr. Beard, representing defendant,
who had paid £7 19s. into court.
_ _ _

It appeared that the parties had been very friendly, and
that defendant and his wife formerly lodged at the Vine
Inn, Tooley-street, which was kept by Mrs. Mogen, who
has since become plaintiff's wife.

Mrs. Burkitt deposed to having sold the furniture at an
agreed price, but Mr. Forster denied it, and generally con-
tradicted both plaintiff and his wife.
Mr. Butler Rigby referred to a quantity of delapidated
articles on the front of the seat, as a fair sample of the bulk,
but Mr. Buchanan urged the court to remember that they
had been in use a long time.
Defendant--They never were used.
His Honour—l fancy that the wife ought to be joined in
this action. The goods were sold before her marriage.
Mr. Rigby—lt appears to me that plaintiff cannot sue
alone.

His Honour found by the rules that he, could join the
wife and did so, adding that as there was a general contra-
diction he must look to probabilities. The whole matter
would be referred to the court broker, who could put a
value on the goods.
Mr. Buchanan—That will hardly be fair to my client at
this lapse of time.

His Honour—Allowances will of course be made.
Referred.

ill-used her only child. Yesterday evening she was very
drunk and disorderly in Poplar, and was frequently re-
quested by the police to go home, which she refused to do.
Her child begged of her to come home, and she knocked
down the little creature. A humane servant girl, named
Mary Steel, of No. 30, River-street, Poplar, went to the
assistance of the girl, and took her away from her cruel

was black in the face, and he cut her down, and revived
her, The reserve man in the station was ordered to watch
her closely, but she contrived to fasten another cord round
her neck and all but strangled herself. Mountford said on
the second occasion the string was fastened so tightly that
he could not sever it with a knife without slightly cutting
her neck.

Tho prisoner—Yes, you cut my throat. What is the use
of living ?

A police sergeant, No. 32 K, said the prisoner was once
brought to the Bow station charged with being drunk and
disorderly, and was so devoid of shame that she stripped
herself and tore up her clothes.

Mr. Partridge—l shall sentence the prisoner to one
month's imprisonment and hard labour for assaulting the
child. She is not fit to have the charge of it. She has
given herself over to drink, and when intoxicated is like a
mad woman. She will have the advice of the chaplain of
the gaol, and I hope will repent of her folly and her wicked-
ness.

EVES MINSTER.

JUVENILE THIEVES.—Three boys of the names of
Townsend, Skelton, and Connor, were charged before Mr.
Selfe with committing robberies at the shop of Mr. Trigg,
Hudson-street, and of Mr. Watson, Brompton•road, boot
and shoemaker.

The evidence went to show that last night the prisoners
Townsend and Skelton were seen at the shop of Mr. Trigg.
when one of them was observed to go up to some boots
which were Upon a line outside the shop, and with a knife
cut the string by which the boots were hanging. He gave
them to his fellow prisoner, after which they decamped.
Inspector Rowly said that there was another charge
against the prisoner, who, in conjunction with the other
prisoners, stole a pair of boots from the shop of Mr.
Watson.

Evidence was then given against the prisoners, which
evidence was to a similar effect (in this case there were two
pairs of boots stolen).

Mr. Selfe asked if the prisoners were known ?
Inspector Rowly said that they were, and that Connor
had been in prison. .

The father of Townsend was called, and stated that his
son had been in trouble before. .

Mr. Selfe said that he should remand the prisoners, and
ho wou!d see what could be done about sending them to
reformatories.

They were then remanded.

"THE GHOST CLUB" at the
CANTERBURY HALL.—New and Interesting
Spectral Tableaux.—Mr. C. MORTON is enabled to announce
that, through the medium of Professor Pepper's World of
Shadows, a "GHOST CLUB" is n‘ghtly held at the CAN—
TERBURY HALL The object of the Club is not the re-
peopling of the Haunted Houses of London; but, through
the agency of Phantoms, to present vivid (if transient)
pictures of the drama of real life, both in its serious
and mirthful aspects ; and, by means of spectral tableaux,
to recall, and still farther impress on the mind, some
of the teachings or pleasantries of the best writers. At pre-
sent, the two orders of Slavery—the Slavery of the South,
and the " White" Slavery of a more boastful civilisation,
receive emphatic illustration ; and these life pictures will be
rapidly replaces by others. The pages of Shakspere and the
eller Dramatists, of Scott, Hood, Ingoldsby, Dickens, &c., &C.,
in turns, furnish subjects for illustration.
All the other Musical and Pictorial attractions as usual,
including* Operatic Selections, &c. ; Comedy by Unsworth
(the modern Demosthenes), Eugene, George Hodson, E.
Marshall, and George Hutchenson.

LAN BERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.-AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the bowels
or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant, is ad-
mitted to be the best medicine for immediately relieving
coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and incipient con-
sumption. It frequently cures persons whom the faculty
pronounce incurable, admirably allays the tickling which
provokes frequent coughing. In approaching consumption
its effects arc truly beneficial. Persons deprived of sleep, or
even lying down for fear of suffocation, may depend on relief
in a few minutes atter taking it. Preparea onAy and sold by

WATER BABIES IN THOUSANDS Aecording to
the whimsical babble of the Rev. Charles Kingsley
in his fantastic book all about Water-babies—All the little
children whom the good fairies take to, because their cruel
mothers and fathers will not; all who are untaught and
brought up heathens, and all who como to grief by ill-usage
or ignorance or neglect; all the little children who are
overlaid, or given gin when they g-are youn_,
or are let to
drink out of hot kettles, or to fall into the fire ; all the little
children in alleys and courts, and tumbledown cottages,
who dio by fever, and cholera, and measles, and scarlatina,
and nasty complaints which no one has any business to
have, and which no one will have some day, when folks
have common sense; and all the little children who have
been killed by cruel masters, and v hiked soldiers ; they
were all there, except, of course, the babes of Bethlehem
who were killed by wicked King Herod; for they were
taken straight to heaven long ago, as everybody knows,
and we call them the Holy Innocents.

AUSTRIA,

VIENNA) Nov. 9,
For some days past the tone of the official and
semi-official journals has become more friendly to
Russia than hitherto, and it is evident that serious
anxiety is entertained with regard to the future.
The Wiener Zeitung derives its information re-
specting Poland from the Ostsee Zeitung, while the
General Correspondent brings certain charges
against the Poles. According to this journal the
failure of the last expedition into Volhynia is only
to be attributed to discord among the insurgents,
which, it says, increased to such an extent "that at
last no one knows who should command and who
should obey."

THE POLISH INSURRECTION.

KONIGSBERG, Nov. 9.
The Osideutsch Zeituny says :—"Notwithstand-:
ing the storms and rains of autumn, the want et
seasonable equipment, and the heavy reverses lately
sustained, the Poles do not draw back from the
work once begun ; and the still animated, active,
and crowded life at the scene of operations tell us
that much more blood will yet saturate the unhappy
land, and thousands fall before this strife of despair
and destruction comes to an end."

children whom the good fairies take to, because their cruel
mothers and fathers will not; all who are untaught and
brought up heathens, and all who come to grief by ill-us:lo.e
or ignorance or neglect ; the little children who Le
overlaid, or given gin when they are young, or are let to
drink out of hot kettles, or to fall into the fire ; all the little
children in alleys and courts, and tumble-down cottages,
who die by fever, and cholera, and measlea. and scarlatina,
and nasty complaints which no one has any business to
have, ana which no one will have some day, when folks
have common sense; and all the little children who have
beeu killed by cruel masters, and wicked soldiers ; they
were all there, except, of course, the babes of Bethlehem
jc.
who were killed by wicked ing Hated ; for they were
taken straight to heaven long ago, as everybody knows,
and we call them the Holy Innoconts.

MARK-LANE.

In the country markets, held on Saturday, rather more
business was done in wheat, and good and fine qualities
changed hands at full prices. Spring corn of all descrip-
tions met a slow sale, at late rates. The flour trade was
very quiet, at the late decline in the currency.
Advices from New York state that wheat was in fair ex-
port demand, but that the flour trade was dull. On the
Continent the inquiry for wheat and spring corn is far from
active.

There was a slight increase in the receipts of English
grain at our market last week. The imports from abroad
amounted to 32,291 quarters of wheat ; 2,837 barley ; 35,442
oats ; 6,680 linseed ; 1,354 oilseeds ; 3,846 maize ; 477
a eels, and 31,167 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to Mark-lane, to-day, the receipts of English
wheat were moderately large, and the condition, generally
speaking, was good; indeed, many parcels came to hand in
excellent condition. The demand, both for red and white
qualities, ruled steady, and last Monday's quotations were
well supported. This improved feeling was mainly attri-
buted to the prevailing changeable weather in Yorkshire
and Scotland, which has, to some extent, retarded the
harvest in those parts.
There was an extensive show of nearly all kinds of foreign
wheat on the stands, The amount of business transacted
was very moderate; nevertheless, importers and holders
were firm in their demands. Compared with this day
sen'night the currency exhibited no change.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
A few parcels of new barley were on offer, but their
quality not being first rate the demand for them was in a
sluggish state, at 35s to 37s per quarter. Old home-grown,
including foreign qualites, met a dull inquiry at previous
quotations.
Good and fine malt moved off steadily, at full prices; but
inferior sorts were in slow request, at late rates.
There was an extensive show of foreign oats on
offer; but the supply of home-grown qualities was small.
The trade, generally, was dull, at the late decline in the
currency.
Beans—both English and foreign—were in short supply,
but slow request, at late rates.
Peas moved off slowly, but no change took place in their
value from Monday last.
In the flour trade there was no activity. Prices showed
no recovery from the late decline. There was a good supply
of barrels on offer.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CAB AND RAILWAY VAN THIEVES.—AIfred Johnson,
11, St. John's-terrace, Hackney-road, and George Timothy,
of 15, Vincent-street, Shoreditch, were charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with being concerned with a man named George
Jones, convicted in June last, in stealing a box from the
roof of a cab, while in Park-lane, on the 16th of May last.
The prisoners are both well known to the police as
" dragsmen" (stealers of luggage, &c.), from cabs. John-
son has been twice convicted, each time receiving a sen-
tence of 12 months' imprisonment, and Timothy has once
been convicted and sentenced to two years' imprisonment;
their companion Jones was sentenced to three years' penal
servitude. A number of notorious thieves, &c., wore in
waiting outside the court to learn the fate of their com-
panions (the prisoners).

Sergeant Cole, 23 C, deposed that at 8 o'clock on Satur-
day, the 16th of May last, he saw the prisoners with a man
named George Jones, who had since been convicted, near
the Circus, in Oxford-street. He followed them—they
being in a cart with a fast-going horse, and Jones driving—
into Grosvenor-square, where a four-wheel cab with a box
on the roof passed them. They pulled up close to the railings.
I stopped for a moment and then followed the cab into Park-
lane, where the cab pulled up in consequence of a stoppage,
and Jones drove the cart close behind the cab, and Johnson
then walked along the shaft of the cart towards the cab and
lifted up the box about five inches fron the roof, when two
soldiers happening to pass, and making a remark about
Johnson being "after the box," he walked back along the
shaft and returned to the cart, and Jones drove off as fast
as he could towards Oxford-street. He (the sergeant) fol-
lowed them as far as the Edgware-road, when, having got
the assistance of two constables, he continued the pursuit
in a Hansom cab to Oxford-square, and then jumped out
and laid hold of the horse's head. Jones then began whip-
ping the horse, and afterwards all three jumped out of the
cart and made off, but he secured Jones and the horse and
cart, the prisoners managing to keep out of the way till
yesterday, when I say them at the Spital.square Station,
and identified them as the persons who escaped from the
cart.

AN INTERESTING QUESTION.

It may possibly become a question at no distant
psriod what may be the title borne by the Prince
of Wales's eldest son, and curiously enough there
are not many precedents to serve as a guide. A
correspondent writes :—" The eldest sons of peers
bear by courtesy the second title of their fathers,
but there is no precedent for the eldest son of
the Prince of Wales being designated either Duke
of Cornwall or Earl of Chester, probably from

the peculiar feudal nature of those peerages. Pre,
vious to the accession of the House of Hanover, only
one Prince of Wales, the Black Prince Edward, had
a son born during his own father's lifetime. On the
death of that prince the Commons requested that
his only surviving son, who was then in his tenth
year, might be received with the honour due to the
presumptive heir to the Crown. This request was
granted, and the Commons preferred another peti-
tion that he might be declared Prince of Wales, but

the Lords object that " the grant of such honours
belonged not to the prelates ur barons, either in or
out of Parliament, but exclusively to the Sovereign;"
and the Royal youth remained plain Lord Richard
of Bordeaux until he ascended the throne as King

Richard 11. On the accession of Icing George 1.,
his eldest son, afterwards George 11., was created
Prince of Wales, and three years afterwards his
eldest son Prince Frederick Lewis, was created Duke
of Gloucester, and, in 1726, among other inferior
titles, Duke of Edinburgh. On the accession of
George IL, Prince Frederick was created Prince of
Wales, and his eldest son, afterwards King George
111,, bore the title of the Doke of Edinburgh till
created Prince of "Wales and Earl of Chester on his
father's death in 1750. This would seem a prece-
dent for the eldest son of the present Prince of
Wales being designated Earl of Dublin, which the
Prince himself was created by patent in 1849. In
the peerage of Scotland the eldest son of the King►
is al ways Duke of Rothsay and Earl of Carrick,
but there is no precedent for the eldest son of the
Prince of Wales being known by either of those
titles."— Guardian.
