A Prussian despatch was delivered yesterday at
Vienna, in which the proposal of Austria to join the
Zoilverein was rejected, mainly because Prussia is
resolved to hold fast to the engagements into
which she has entered, and because the present
tariff is out of date.

The London and Middlesex Bank (Limited) is established
for the transaction of every description of business usually
undertaken by private and joint-stock banks, and being in-
corporated under the new principle of limited liability, offers
great advantages to shareholders, inasmuch as no one can be
held responsible for more than the unpaid amount of the
shares standing in his name.
The portion of the Capital remaining uncalled will be £7O
per share ; and this will form an ample reserve for securing
the confidence of customers.
The Directors of the London and Middlesex Bank (Limited)
have made such terms with an existing London Joint-stock
Bank for the transfer to them of its business, as will place
the new Bank immediately in an advantageous position for
paying Dividends.
No liability of the Bank, the business of which is so trans-
ferred, will be incurred by the shareholders in the London
and Middlesex Bank.
Application for the remaining shares must be made on or
before the Ist August ; after which day no application can be
entertained.

Prospectuses and forms of Applications for shares may be
obtained at the Temporary Offices, as above, and of the
brokers.

DUNDEE, July 22.—Telegraphic advices from
Itiga, received to-day, report a further rise in the
price of flax there, This market is, in consequence,
decidedly higher again, and a moderate business

ties of tows are also dearer, and little now remains
in first hands. Jute is for the moment quiet, as spin-
ners wait to see the result of the large London sales
to-morrow. To force sales at present lower prices
must be accepted. To-day the market for flax and

TEETH.-By MR. ESKELL'S INVENTION
(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by means of his patented soft elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by tne closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they are guaranteed to last a life
time, as well as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

It USSIA.

The Poste de Nord, in an article on the recent
fires in the capital and several provincial cities,
says, the public of St. Peterburg is beginning to re-
cover from the terror caused by these conflagrations.
Most of the fires occurred in the quarters inhabited
by the poor. They were immediately attributed to
incendiaries ; numerous arrests were made, many
by the people themselves ; and the general alarm
was increased by the circulation of anonymous let-
ters, that appeared to proceed from some kind of or-
ganised body. The Government, however, by taking
the most energetic measures, appear to have stayed
the work of destruction. Subscription for the
sufferers are flowing in ; a commission has been ap-
pointed to examine the claim to compensation or
relief, which amount to more than 3,000; and plans
are under consideration for rebuilding the streets
and bazaars destroyed, that it is hoped will prevent
such calamities in future. The old Russian custom
that collected the retail dealers in certain kinds of
goods in the large wooden building called bazaars,
is especially denounced, as uniting every condition
dangerous both to the public health and safety. It
is stated that this barbarous Oriental system ought
no longer to be tolerated in a capital like St. Peters
burg; and it is probable that the bazaars that have
been destroyed will not be rebuilt.

POLICE-THIS DAY.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
THE BELT AGAIN.—SAVAGE ASSAULT.—John Gibson,
a private in the Ist battalion of Coldstream Guards, was
charged before Mr. Knox with the following violent assault
with his belt :

Page Hewett, a bootmaker, of 18, St, Martin's-street,
Leicester-square, said about 12 last night he was close to
his door, the house being a corner one—the private door in
one street, and a chandler's shop in the other. The female_
in the shop called him round and said " Pray go round'
some one is breaking my door open." He (complainant) '
went round to the shop, and seeing the prisoner in the pas-
sage the worse for liquor, said, " Holloa, who is here ?"
when the prisoner replied, " I am here on special duty.
There are thieves in the house, and I'll have them out."
He told the prisoner that he had better be off or he would
have him locked up. The prisoner then pushed him two
or three times with his left hand, and while doing to with
his right hand pulled his belt from under his coat, and hit
him a severe blow on the back with it, causing a large
lump, and directly after got hold of the buckle, and hold•
ing it tightly in his hand gave him a severe blow on the
head, inflicting a severe wound and smothering him with
blood. On a policeman coming up, and while he (com-
plainant) was speaking to him, the prisoner tried to get off
his belt again, and on being told by the constable that he
had better be quiet, he (the soldier) ran away, but was cap-
tured two or three hours after.

Reeves, 44 0, said that while speaking to the com-
plainant he saw the soldier attempt to take off his belt.
He, however, cautioned him, and he then made his escape,
but he took him that day about three o'clock, near the
National Gallery. The complainant's head was bleeding
profusely, and he seemed almost insensible. It could not
have possibly been done with the fist, and he had no doubt
had been done with the buckle.

Mr. Knox having ascertaired that the complainant had
not been seen by a medical man, ordered the constable at
once to go to Middlesex Hospital with the complainant,
and on their return the constable handed Mr Knox a certi-
ficate stating that the wound on the complainant's head
was inflicted by an instrument like a soldier's belt buckle.
The certificate was signed by Mr. Albert D. Hunt, house
surgeon.

A SCOTCH MARRIAGE CASE.

Another case has just been decided in the Court
of Session by Lord Ardmillau, in which the law of
Scotland in regard to the constitution of an irre-
gular marriage is curiously illustrated. In the
present instance the pursuer has succeeded in ob-
taining the judgment of the Court in her favour, as
wife of the defender. The pursuer is a young High-
land woman named Margaret Mackinnon, unedu-
cated and unable to speak English, and who in 1858
was servant to the defender, Mr. Patrick M'Don-
ald, of Ardmore, in the island of Skye. After
having sent her for a brief period to a school in
Glasgow the defender invited her to accompany
him to America, explaining to her brother that he
had fallen in love with her, and would have mar-
ried her, but was unable to make the requisite stay,
and was apprehensive his relatives would interfere.
He, however, made a promise of marriage, and they
left Glasgow with their luggage addressed " Mr.
M'Donald" and " Mrs. M`Donald." In passing
through Liverpool, on March 4, 1859, the defender
signed a paper acknowledging the pursuer as his
wife in the presence of two witnesses, and with this
paper in her possession they sailed together for
America. They returned to this country in May,
having cohabited together in the interval, and at
this stage some of the defender's friends interfered
"to get him out of the scrape." The pursuer, who
evidently did not understand the proceedings fur.
ther than that there was a separation desired,
agreed to give up the paper signed by the defender
and was induced to grant a discharge to the effect,
that the defender had promised to marry her, but
had refused to fulfil the promise. This discharge
was given at a meeting of the parties, at which the
woman cried very much, and refused money when
offered to her ; and the legal gentlemen present de-
posed they were not aware she did not understand
English, and that the character of the proceeding
was not explained to her in Gaelic. The Lord
Ordinary held that the discharge could not be taken
as a renunciation by the pursuer of her status, see-
ing the legitimacy of her child was also involved.
For some time the pursuer and defender were parted,
but before long he reopened communication with
her in affectionate terms, and on the Ist December,
1839, he sent her back the acknowledgment of the
4th of March, telling her it would make her happier
and would make the discharge of no use. In Feb-
ruary, 1860, the pursuer gave birth to a female
child, and the defender visited her and got the birth
registered as that of a lawful child to himself, and
to whom he gate his own mother's name, On
the law applicalle to this state of facts the Lord
Ordinary says he has not felt much hesitation. Such
an acknowledgment, communicated and accepted
and followed by cohabitation, is, by the law of Scot-
land, sufficient to constitute marriage, unless a dif-
ferent intention—an intention to deceive others, or
give a colour to concubinage, or escape from scandal

ITALY.

The following is the speech of General Durando,
Minister of Foreign Affairs at Turin, in reply to
the questions put to him in the sitting of the Cham-
ber of Deputies of the 20th by M. Petruccelli

" I cannot follow the hon. gentleman over all the
vast ground he has skimmed over in his speech. I
will keep within strict limits, and give few and
plain answers to his questions. There has been no
communication from England, either official or non-
official, of a nature to disturb our good understand-
ing ;with that Power. With Russia we have no
transaction but what appears in the documents
produced. Besides, the Russia of 1862 is under-
going a political transformation, and we shall find
her favourable to our line of policy. France does
not want our alliance in Mexico. The mission of
Italy is that of constituting a link between
the Powers of the West so as to mode-
rate their antagonism. In the affairs of Servia
and Constantinople England has supported
us. With Belgium we are in cordial con-
nection, and about to conclude a commercial
treaty. The neutrality of Switzerland is guaranteed
by all the Powers that signed the treaties of 1815 ;
we cannot therefore conclude with that country any
treaty of a defensive, and much less of an offensive,
nature. But, if the independence of that country
were menaced, we should defend it. A s to Gari-
, baldi's speech, I have been obliged to make it the
subject of an official note. Concerning the question
of Venice we have opened no negotiation whatever.
Regarding Germany, we must unfortunately trust
to time alone to gain ground in the opinion of her
Governments. As to Spain, we must keep in mind
the special position of her dynasty with regard to
Naples. The question of Montenegro is very com-
plicated. As to Rome, I do not believe it will be
united to the kingdom while lam in office. My
ambition is limited to put that question in such a
condition as to enable the people to see the goal not
far off. We have performed prodigies of valour and
of concord ; we must now perform a third prodigy,
that of patience, which I assure you will bring us
to Rome."

COMMERCIAL JUSTICE.

The newly-elected judges of the Tribunal of Com-
merce of Paris were duly installed on Saturday last,
and M. Deniere, jun., was re-elected President. On
taking his seat the new President delivered a speech,
in which he reviewed the proceedings of the Tribu-
nal during the past year, and afterwards read the
usual detailed report, divided into three heads—
judgments, bankruptcies, and trading companies—
of which the following is a brief summary :—The
number of causes remaining to be heard on the Ist
of July, 1861, was 940, and the new ones introduced
up to the 30th of June this year wore 74,190, mak-
ing a total of 75,130. Of these causes 43,570 were
undefended, 21,302 were decided contradictorily,
3,882 were withdrawn, 5,604 were conciliated, and
772 still remain to be heard. The number of
causes in 1861-62 exceeds those of the preceding
year by 6,526. The Tribunal has heard 67 appeals
from judgments given by the councils of Prud'-
hommes ; of this number 35 judgments were
confirmed, 8 quashed, 8 conciliated, and 5 remain
over. The appeals to the Imperial Court from judg-
ments of the Tribunal were 860, which, with 667
remaining over from preceding years, make a total
of £1,427: Of this number the judgments were
confirmed in 463 cases, quashed in 144, while 207
were amicably settled without a hearing, and 814
remain undecided. The total number of bankruptcies
declared in 1861-62 was 1,773, which, with the
number remaining over from the preceding year,
make a total of 2,944, of which 1,456 have been

that joint-stock companies are regarded by the
public with less favour than formerly. The report
concludes by congratulating the officers of the court
on the manner in which they have performed their
functions.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —Hollow!ty, s Ointment and Pills.—
Renewal of Health.—lt is surprising how quickly any sore,
ulcer, or wound drains away the body's strength and unfits
it for the duties of life ; but it is no less wonderful to watch
how these tropical afflictions improve on the application of
Holloway's healing Ointment. It has achieved the surest
and most glorious triumphs over bad legs, foul ulcerations,
and knotted veins which had confounded the faculty and
ms properly applied, and assisted by appropriate doses
ent i
well nigh worn out their victims. It creates sound flesh,
and therefore makes its cures complete. When this

flammations soon disappear from the affected part, and

THE SIJN.
LONDON, THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1862.

Our English daily press,
in regard to the
American struggle, seems almost to have divided
itself into the party of the North and the party of
the South. -we need not mention names ; news-
paper readers know well where to look for the best
and the worst representation of each side. We
do not wish, for our part, to profess any meritorious
impartiality, but certainly we feel little inclination
to undertake the advocacy of either side. Ave must
confess that the faults of each rise so provokingly
before us, if inclined for the moment to patronise
either, that we cannot do it if we wou •
ld Each
has its great merit, and each its great vice. The
North fights to exclude slavery from the territories
—well ; but then it also fights for a fugitive slave
law, a reunion with Slave States, and to subjugate
all North America to its empire, for that is its ul-
timate aim. The South fights for independence, a
cause dear to Englishmen, and independence of a
most unaimable twenty millions of sovereigns—
well, also ; but again, the South fights to make
slavery the corner-stone of a Southern republic.
Such an arrangement of the pleadings may well
render Englishmen indifferent to the suocess or
failure of either belligerent. If we turn to other
considerations, especially to the interests of Europe,
the South has the advantage. She is willing to
trade with the old world on free-trade principles;
and even the consideration of the weaker so long
and successfully resisting the stronger, has influence
with many minds. That it would be for the benefit
of the civilised world that the ambitious, aggres-
sive, and arrogant North should not expand itself
territorially till it absorbs all North America into
one empire, can hardly be doubted. These facts,
with the present claims. of Lancashire, would pro-
bably cause England to rejoice could the North be
induced or compelled to. acknowledge the indeven.

" 2. REPAYMENT OF CHINA ADVANCES.

" I readily accept Sir C. Wood's own illustration
of the differenoe between a remittance and a
charge. He says, 'lf I give a friend a check for
£2O on my banker at Doncaster, and he forthwith
pays £2O to my credit at my banker's in London,
this is merely a remittance, and ought not to be
treated as income.' Certainly not; but if one Govern-
ment makes another large advance, spread over a
considerable time, in such ways as paying freight
for transports, hire of steamers, arms, and ammuni-
tion, rations for men, forage for horses, and so on,
all of which costs money, or reduces stores which
have to be replenished by money ; and if, after
months or years, an adjustment is come to, and the
expenses thus incurred are repaid by instalments,
is it or is it not the practice of English budgets to
enter such repayments as miscellaneous revenue ?'
"No doubt a separate account might have been
set up and a separate loan raised, so as to keep the
China Advances' entirely distinct from general In-
dian expenditure, and make the case parallel to
that put by Sir C. Wood, of immediate credit given
at one of your treasuries for any specific sum dis-
bursed at another ; or to that of such a separate
account as that of the Exchequer Loan Commis-
sioners in England. But nothing of the sort was
ever done, and the advances were made in hard
cash, out of the Indian treasuries, at a time when
it was very inconvenient to make them, and our
'expenditure for stores, &c., is to this day swelled
by purchases to replenish magazines diminished by
issues two years ago for service in China.
Moreover, Sir C. Wood never touches what is
my main argument as regards the policy or impo-
Hey of relieving taxation on the faith of a surplus
swelled partly by this extraordinary receipt, viz.,
that there are extraordinary charges on the other
side.

" Call the £529,000 of China refund, if you like,
a windfall' or a cash balance, and not a revenue
receipt; there are charges of £489,000 on the other
side for the Persian telegraph, new India-office,
&c., which are quite as much of a special and tem-
porary nature as the China refund.
" Could it have been good policy, with a clear
surplus of actual cash balances and of ordinary re-
venue, to retain taxes open to the gravest political
objections because we carried purism in finance to
such an extremity as to refuse to set off a real
though extraordinary receipt of £529,000 against
a doubtful, but, if real, equally extraordinary charge
of £489,000 of the same year
" This was my argument, and it is not even ad-
verted to.

PHILO.

This bankrupt was described as of London-street, Nor -
wich, draper, and to-day was appointed for his last exami-
nation.
Mr. Brough appeared for the assignees, and did not op-
pose the bankrupt, but the question of disoharge was ad-
journed, in consequence of an order from the Lord Chan-
cellor directing that no order of diicharge should be heard
until November. The order is, probably, that the case
should be decided by the Commissioner to whom it had
been ballotted. This appears rather hard on bankrupts.
Under the old practice the Commissioners heard applica-
tions for certificate, and it was only in special cases that
they were adjourned for the return of the Commissioner
after the vacation.
