STRAND.

Last night a new comic drama in two acts, called, " My
Son's a Daughter," was produced hero. The story turns
upon the midnight adventures of a certain rollicking king's
trumpeter, who made love in the dark to a young village
maiden and an old village maid, to the great disgust of the
guardian of the furmer, who wishes to marry his dependent.
After giving rise to considerable village scandal by the
avowal of his night's adventures, ho marries the young
Woman, but not before discovering that she is the child of
an old comrade whom he had sworn to seek and protect
under the belief that the orphan was a boy. The principal
parts were sustained by Miss Josephs, Mrs. Poynter, Mr.
Parselle, and Mr. Turner, with much success. The an-
nouncement of the piece for repetition every evening was
received with the loudest applause.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—MoxpAy.

Towards the close, 3 to 1 was taken about Pagoda for the
Warwick Handicap ; Tolurno was the only other horse
mentioned.—Hadji Stavros was much inquired after for the
Chester Cup; the highest offer we heard was 100 to 6.
For the Northamptonshire Stakes, 100 to 7 was taken about
Schism ; and the same price would have been taken about
Rapparee, but 100 to 8 was refused. 20 to 1 was taken
against Agag, when it could be obtained ; but Prince
Plausible is rather on the decline, 25 to 1 being laid.—Last
Monday as much as 7 to 1 was laid against Old Calabar.
During the last week he appeared to be returning to his
old position. To-day, 400 to 100 was laid; and, judging
from appearance, any one might have been accommodated
with 900 to 200. Closing prices :

ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Master of the Rolls.)
THE BANK OF DEPOSIT. t
The Marquis of Abercorn, who had permitt%ed
his name to be inserted in the prospectuses of the
National Insurance and Investment Association, or
Bank of Deposit, for a certain period, but who re—
signed his directorship in truly, 1854, and desired
that his name should be withdrawn from the list
of trustees at the end of that year, was this day
examined before his Honour by the counsel of the
official manager of the society.
His lordship stated that he never attended at the
office of the society to transact any business. When
he was appointed trustee no writing was signed by
him, nor when he retired did lie sign any document.
lie was not aware until he saw Mr. Harding's re-
port of the society last November, that his name
had beat inserted in the books of the society as a
borrower or £5OO, while on the other hand, the
hooks credited him, as the holder of capital stock to
that amount. Tfrqse debit and credit entries were
wholly unauthorise by him. His lordship d
de-
tailed the great;difficuliy he experieccedin getting
Mr. Peter Morrison to wLf-hdraw his lordship's
name from the list of trustOes,• Mr. Morrison, by
excuse for not complying earli..3- with his lordship's
request, said no responsibility atta;thed to his lord-
ship's office of trustee, as it was n3e.rely honorary.
In October, 1856, acted en his
a gentleman who .
lordship's behalf in the matter receive d a letter
from the society, stating that his lordsh4-I's name
had been withdrawn from the list of trustees:
Mr. Selwyn and Mr. Roxburgh appeared fo.r the
official manag.er, and Mr. Rolt and Mr. Bristow
for the Marquis of Abercorn. Mr. Ogle was alo
engaged in the case.
His Honour thought it was very desirable to
proceed with the settling of the list of contri-
butories, and that flame day should be fixed for
that purpose. The depositors would not have to
contribute, but to receive .`Honey in respect of their

deposits. prOcped with the Mar-
Mr. Selwyn proposed to
quis of Abercorn's case on Wealle°a.Y* His ISM-
ship had allowed the society to use his name as di-
rector and.trustee, and it no, became the duty. of
the. official manager to endeavotir to put his lord-
ship's name on the list of those willo but
h
contri-
bute to the payment of the society's liabilties.
It was then arranged that his ladship's case
should be dealt with on Wednesday.

rICHE VIGOUR OF YOUTH RESTORED IN
I FOUR WEEKS by Dr. RICORD'S ESSENCE OF
LIFE.
This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most
shattered constitution, whether arising from self-pollution,
excesses, nocturnal emissions the effects of climate, or natu-
ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate
case is four weeks '7, and, if used according to the printed in-
structions (which are very simple), failure is impossible.
This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to
marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by
the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, When in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. CO URTENAY, m.n.c.s.E.,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been clirc'aed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. CoP:rtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great disCeaninative power in the diagnosis of the various
lands Of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
tbc,ir management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who arc subject
to stricture."—Aledical Circular.

WRITS OF HABEAS CORPUS IN HER MA-
JESTY'S POSSESSIONS ABROAD.

The Duke of NEWCASTLE moved the second reading
of this bill which was the remedy for certain inconvenien-
ces that arose during the proceedings that took place in
connection with the case of the fugitive slave Anderson.
The bill proposed that in any of her Majesty's possessions
where there was a court similar to that of the Court of
Queen's Bench in England, writs of habeas corpus should
not be issued in this country.
After a few words from Lord CHELMSFORD and the
LORD CHANCELLOR, the bill was read a second time.
OFFICERS' COMMISSIONS BILL.

Earl DE GREY and RIPON moved the second reading
of this bill, which was to relieve her Majesty of a great
deal of labour. The measure proposed to relieve
her Majesty from the trouble of affixing the royal
sign manual to all commissions of officers of the
army, militia, and the volunteer force. The labour of sign-
ing these commissions had greatly increased of late ; and
in order to relieve the Crown from the purely formal pro-
ceeding, it proposed that, under cell am regulations, all
commissions in future should be signed by the Commander-
in-Chief and the Secretary of State for War.
The Earl of DERBY thought the bill was one that
should be looked at carefully before it passed the house.
He was aware of the unnecessary labour which was n6w
thrown on the Crown, and therefore he did not offer the
slightest objection to the bill; but he would suggest to the
noble earl that when the Secretary of State for War signed
the commissions, he should state that he did so in pur-
suance of her Majesty's sign manual.
Earl DE GREY said the suggestion of the noble earl
should be attended to. The bill was then read a second
time.

CON SOLIDATED FUND (LI8,000,000) BILL.
This bill was read a second time.
THE INSOLVENT COURT.

Lord CHELMSFORD rose to call the attention of the
house to the case of the clerks and officers of the late
Insolvent Court who had been transferred to the Court of
Bankruptcy under the Act passed in the last session of Par-
liament for amending the law relating to Bankruptcy and
Insolvency in England.

tained. In the refined market slightly enhanced quotations
are current.
COFFEE.—FuII rates have been obtained for good and
fine descriptions of colonial, but in other qualities the
operations have been limited, and prices have remained
without material alteration.

entered into have been at a slight decline on previous
rates.
SALTPETRE.—A fair amount of business has been entered
into, at enhanced prices for all descriptions.
TALLOW.—The market has been rather excited, owing
to speculative transactions for forward delivery; the latest

THE SUN.

LONDON, TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 1862,

The adjourned debate upon the subject of Intern&
tional Maritime Law, having been resumed yester.
day evening, according to last week's arrangement,
was eventually brought to a conclusion early this
morning. The small hours had commenced when the
hon. gentleman, Mr. BERRY HORSFALL, the mem-
ber for Liverpool—all having been said that could
very well have been said in support of his motion—
modestly consented to withdraw it. Results like
these transpiring at the close of a grave, elaborate,
and, in many respects, a profoundly interesting
discussion, always come upon the House itself, and
upon the country at large afterwards, with the
effect of an anti-climax. The nectar of logical argu-
ment that—previously to the abrupt withdrawal of
the very source of the whole sustained discussion-
-7° appear to have been quaffing night after night,
hour after hour, with a relish, turns out in the end
haveto been all as illusory in its way as the liba-
tions, of all imaginable colours and flavours, supplied
to a Whole
theatre full of gaping spectators from
the Inexhaustible flask of your skilled Conjuror or
Master of Legerdemain. Quot homines, tot
sententice as
p, different as rum-punch and
mint-jule
sherbet, cocktail, and champagne,
have been the
opinions poured forth last week,
and again also last night, from , from Mr. HORSFALL'S
new example of the Inexhaustible Bottlo Trick,
when—lo! and behold, with the relish of each po-
tent beverage yet fresh upon our
palate—it all turns
out to be, as we have said, the merest of illusion,
the vapidist waste of time, the sheerest
waste of
encrgits, the Wonderful Bottle proves to be,
after
all, the vf riest Bottle of Smoke. The motion is
withdrawn by the hon. gentleman who introduced
it. It is quietly withdrawn by Mr. HORSFALL, so
that nothing comes of it. This, although it has
recivcd the earnest advocacy, as the Prime Minis_
of two kinds of
ter last night reminded the house,
supporters, namely—those who wished to extend
rble declaration of Paris in
vet further the mcmo :t
It ma
the treaty of 1856—and, surprising though
y
appear to say so, in the same breath, of those who
desire on the contrary to see that declaration re-
pealed altogether. As Lord PALMERSTON very
reasonably argued, the Government, supposing it,
were called upon to accept, and of courso afterwards
to act upon this specious and ostensibly most
humane resolution, could, with a view to that

ASSAULT ON A WlFE.—LaWrelaoe Sullivan, a labouring
man, was charged with assaulting his wife as follows :
Tbe wife said her husband, whom she had not seen for
eight weeks, he leaving her to take care of the children,
came into her room, and, without saying a word, rushed at
her and struck her on the forehead, which bled very much.
She made her escape from the room, and had her head
dressed.

In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the complainant said she
could not say whether her husband had anything in his
hand. She had been separated from hite for six months.
She believed if it had not been for her father she would
have] been killed.
A iconstable said the complainant was bleeding on the
forehead. The prisoner told him he did not know that he
had struck his wife at all, as he was drunk.
Prisoner said he might have shoved his wife.

Mr. Tyrwhitt fined him 405., or a month.
John Hartnett, who has before been in custody, was
charged by Drascovich, 197 C, with stealing a large piece

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special

great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their Management is founded. By his systematic management
an ilnmense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly* and confidently recommend as a valuable

HARTLEPOOL RAILWAYS AND HARBOUR
COMPANY.
Mr. ROEBUCK, in presenting a petition from a share-
holder in the above company, stated that the company was
established in 1853, and was authorised by Act of Parlia-
ment to raise £600,000. According to the statement made
by the petitioner they had raised money to the extent of
£2,000,000, and they were now bankrupt. Other breaches
of faith were alleged, and the petition prayed that the
directors of the company should be prosecuted.
Mr. M. GIBSON explained that the Board of Trade sent
instructions to public companies to supply them with
financial returns • when these were received they were
tabulated and laid before the house. If there was any
criminality or fraud in these returns, the parties who made
them, and not the Board of Trade, were liable.
Mr. ROEBUCK hoped that the petition might be sent
round with the votes of the house as a preliminary to a mo-
tion which he intended to make on the subject.
THE SLAVE TRADE PAPERS.
In reply to Mr. W. FORSTER,
Mr. LAYARD said that the slave trade papers were in
the hands of the printer, and he hoped to be able to lay
them on the table at the end of next week.

India whether the despatches relative to the Sikkim expe-

to their being laid upon the table of the house.
