RUMOURED Loss OF THE PARANA.—A painful
rumour had been current at Halifax that the steamer
Parana had been lost in the St. Lawrence, with 1,100
troops, but the report cannot be traced to a reliable source.
As the steamer I'arena is known to be three or four knots
an hour slower than the Adriatic, her non-arrival need not,
it is held, excite surprise.

CRICKET IN AUSTRALIA,-Of the three absorb'

ing topics of interest during the past month (says the Mel-
bourne Argus)—politics, the sad news of the Victorian ex-
ploration party, and the anticipated visit of the All-Eng-
land cricketers to these shores—the last has been on the in-
crease as each succeeding week has lessened the period
which must elapse before the arrival of the Great Britain.
Already great preparations are being made for the reception
of the Eleven. Subscriptions are being canvassed to fetch
down the best players from the country districts, so as to
organi,e a team'worthy to cope with the Eleven. Practice
has within the last week commenced on the Melbourne
ground, by having 22 placed in the field—it being expected
the Eleven will play against that number—but we fear
that a great deal more practice will be required, as at pre-
sent the fielding is inferior. Some little change of feeling
was produced upon the arrival of the last mail, conse-
quent upon the retirement from the Eleven of several
pl yers whose names were familiar as household words to
most of our cricketers. At the same time, whatever effect
such change may have upon the "book 6" of those who make
the event one of money speculation, the one opinion exists
—that our men will have plenty of work before them, even
if they are beaten by a small majority. Every arrangement
is to be made to fit our cricketing reserve for the thousands
who will assemble on it from all quarters of the three colo-
nies. It has recently been altered as to shape, and at the
same time enlarged. Messrs. Spiers and Pond are erecting
a grand stand, which will be 700 feet long, and which will
contain some thousands of spectators. They will also have
other accommodation. The ground is in first-class order,
and by the system of irrigation proposed the turf will be
fresh and green even in the hottest weather in Decumber or
January.

Mr. Topham, with the most praiseworthy promptitude,
has forwarded his b andicap to our Sporting Correspondent
for publication.
It appeals exclusively in the Third Edition of The Sun
this evening. The weights seem to have been distributed
with unusual care and discrimination, and from the hasty exa-
mination which we have been enabled to bestow upon them
we confidently expect that Mr. Topham•s labours will be
admired and appreciated by the entire sporting community.
He has distributed the imposts amongst 167 horses, and
has accomplished his difficult task in a most unexception-
ably manner. A large acceptance will show the success of
his work and the correctness of his judgment.

LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—(7his Day.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lords Justices of Appeal.)
JUDGMENT-WANE V. CROCKER.

This is an appeal from a decision of the Master of the
Rolls, allowing a demurrer to the plaintiff's bill. The de•
fendant Crocker, in 1855, filed a bill of foreclosure against
the plaintiff, Charles Wane, and others, in respect to an
estate situated at Aldsworth, in the county of Gloucester
alleging that he had acquired a legal right in reversion to
that property, expectant on the decease of Thomas Wane,
one of the defendants in that suit ; or asking, if Jiles Wane
should be hold to be a prior mortgagee to redeem him. That
bill was dismissed at the Rolls except as to an annuity of
£BO. Crocker's right to which was not disputed. On the
death of Thos. Wane, Crocker commenced an action at law of
ejectment, alleging that his legal rights were not mortgaged,
and that it was net affected by the decree at the Rolls—
thereupon Jiles Wane filed and presented a bill for the pur-
pose of restraining the action by injunction. To this bill
the defendant Crocker demurred, and the Master of the
Rolls allowed the demurrer--hence the appeal.
Lord Justice Turner was of opinion that the order of the
Master of the Rolls allowing demurrer to the plaintiff's
bill was right, and ought not to be altered ; the defendant
had a right to proceed in his action at law.

Lord Justice Knight was of the same opinion, but if the
plaintiff had asked to amend his bill his ;lordship would
have allowed him to do so, but he did not ask to amend
his bill.

Their lordships dismissed the appeal with eosts.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

(Before Mr. Justice Wightman and a Common Jury.)

JAMRACH V. SMITH.
This was an action brought against Mr. E. T. Smith, the
proprietor of Cremorne Gardens, by the plaintiff, for the
purpose of compelling him to carry out the contract entered
into with him respecting the money to be paid for the ex-
hibition of wild beasts at Cremorne. The defendant's
answer was that he had paid the plaintiff for one of the
weeks, namely, £5 15s. 6d., and that for the other, the
only question in dispute, he had paid £6 into court as
sufficient.

Mr. Jamracic, a naturalist and menagerist, said a number
of Hone, tigers, monkeys, &c.. were brought over from
Paris, and sent to Cremorne-gardens, of which Mr. Simp-
son was the proprietor. They were placed on the esplanade,
and he was to have half the money received from parties go
ing over the bridge for their exhibition. He was to pay
for the keep and care of the beasts. It cost £l4 or
£l5 a week. The takings never came up to what it was
supposed they would. When the female Blondin came the
attendance was very great. He considered he was entitled
to have half the proceeds as usual, but this was objected
to ; and as he had no new understanding with Mr. Smith,
the new proprietor, he considered the old contract in force.
This the defendant objected to.

The trial was proceeding when we went to press.

LIBERATION OF THE TWO AMERICANS TAKEN
FROM THE EUGENIA SMITH,--Orders have been given by

At a meeting held under the auspices of the
Northern Reform Union, at Blaydon, on Monday evening,
petitions to both Houses of Parliament, praying for a radical
reform in the representation of the people in Parliament,
based upon " manhood suffrage and vote by ballot," were
unanimously adopted.

A call of £5 has been made on the new shares
of the Electric and International Telegraph Com-
pany.
