APPEAL JUDGMENT.-PHILIPS V. PHILIPS.

This was an appeal from a decree of Vice-Chancollor Sir
John Stuart. The suit was instituted for the purpose of
obtaining an account and payment of what was due to the
plaintiff, who sued as a pauper in respect of the arrears of
an annuity of £2O granted to him in 1820. the bill stated
that John Philips, the brother of the plaintiff, by indenture
dated Feb. 4, 1820, charged an estate called Blanaway,
which he had inherited through his father's intestacy,
with the payment of the annuity of £2O to the plaintiff for
life. The estate at that time WAS subject to a mortgage of
£1,200, and the annuity was payable after the death of his
mother.

The defendant asked to set aside the deed from want ol
valuable consideration: and pleaded the Statue of Limita-
tion.

The Vice-Chancellor held that there was no evidence to
show that the annuity deed was a voluntary deed, and there
was no evidence to show that the defendant had not re-
ceived due notice of the deed; and, moreover, the defence
that the plaintiff had not purchased for a valuable consi-
deration ought to have been pleaded, and, therefore, his
honour made a decree in favour of the plaintiff, with costa.
Against this decision the defendant appealed.
The Lord Chancellor affirmed tho decision of tho Vice-
Chancel'or, and dismissed the appeal, without costs, in
respect that the plaintiff sued tn forma pauperis.

PERSIA.

Some trade reports from the British Consuls have
recently been is•ned by the Board of Trade, and
among them a report from the Acting Consul-Gene-
ral at Tabreez, giving an account of Azerbijan, the
most important province of Persia. Its capital, Ta•
breez,of which the population is estimated at 200,000,
is the
principle emporim of Persian trade. The im-
ports through and from Turkey into Azerbijan
amounted in 1859, to £2,ooo,ooo.dyed and prided
cotton goods being the largest item (comprising seve-
ral descriptions of British coloured manufactures),
and British gray calicoes the next ; large quantities
of the latter are cut up at Tabreez into small pieces,
dyed blue, and then sent to Russia as Persian
manufactures. Broadcloths and most of the miscel•
laneous goods are from Germany. Indigo is an
article of great consumption in Tabreez, and is im-
ported direct from India. The exports to Russia
amounted in 1859 to nearly £BOO,OOO, half of them
smuggled ; they include the higher qualities of
British prints, Swiss manufactures, European and
Persian silks, tea, and rum. A small quantity of
silk pieces is manufactured in Tabreez, coarser, but
more durable than European silks; felt carpets also
and other coarse carpets. The growth of wheat and
barley is large. The cotton is of inferior quality.
There is coal, but it is not used; and copper and
iron veins, but they are almost entirely neglected,
and a supply obtained from Russia. The climate of
the province generally is healthy and bracing, the
soil fertile, and the inhabitants hardy, active, and
industrious. The revenue is nearly £500,000, but
this sum is said to be far from representing the
amount really collected from the taxpayers. The
revenue of each village is farmed or assigned to a
Government officer in " teeeol" (a kind of fief), but
the taxes are underrated to him ; two-thirds are
taken by him, and one-third by the proprietor of the
village. The taxes include one-third of the grain
produce, a tax on gardens, and on fields used for the
cultivation of tobacco, cotton, or madder roots, a
house-tax of lOs 2d on every family, a tax of 2s 3d on
mares and mules, and 4d on sheep and goats; be-
sides which the villagers have to furnish gratis to
the teeool-holder a certain quantity of lambs, fowls,
eggs, milk, wool, &c., and a certain number of la-
bDurers if required. But the peasantry are patient
so long as they are not reduced to actual starvation.
The internal transit dues are a serious obstacle to
the extension of commerce—every small town levies
its duties on the goods that pass through it. The
want of cart roads is also a great hindrance—every-
thing is transported on mules, horses, camels, or
asses. If these things were remedied, cart roads
constructed, and a moderate duty made payable
once for all on importation or exportation, the trade
of Persia would rapidly develope itself to a very
considerable extent; and next to Persia, Great Bri-
tain would derive most benefit from these reforms.
As it is, the consumption of British manufactures
in Persia has increased nearly fourfold within the
last 20 years.

" The Use and the Abuse of the Turkish Bath.—A very

proprietor of the Turkish Baths in the neighbourhood of the
Post-office, which presents to the uninitiated a mass of inte-
resting information, while those who have already encouraged
this new system will derive additional advantage if they
observe some of the p,actical regulations which the writer
endeavours to enforce."—Herald and Standard, N0v.12, 1861.
" The Post-office Turkish Bath., 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand.
—Dr. Culverwell has already established the reputation of
an able physician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy
philanthropist, in as far as lie has established, in the heart
of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco-
very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice
of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established,
the Turkish Bath. . . Our obiect beino• merely to direct
the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess
One of the best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand,
which the country can produce; perfect in all Its appliances,
and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up
his baths with a degree of elegance, luxury, and refinement,
which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur-
prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire
has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the
visitor. • . We may justly say that if a man ever :feels
himself regenerated and new made, it is on coming out:of

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(this Day.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)
HUNT Y. HUNT-APPEAL JUDGMENT.

This was an appeal from the decision of the Master of the
Rolls, refusing to grant an injunction against the appellant's
husband, to restrain him from proceeding in an a?tion in
the Divorce Court for restoration of his conjugal rights in
contravention of deed of separation, executed by them,
whereby ho became bound not to sue for a restoration of
his conjugal rights.
The Lord Chancellor at the rising of the Court before
Christmas expressed an opinion contrary to the decision of
the Master of the Rolls, and having reconsidered the case
during the recess, his lordship (the Lord Chancellor) this
morning delivered judgment, reversing the decision of the
Master of the Rolls, and granted the injunction asked
against the husband.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating- this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.

" We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

SELF-PRESERVATION.—A popular Essay on
Nervous and Physical Debility, resulting from injurious
habits contracted in youth, or excesses in maturity, which,
by prematurely exhausting the functions of Manhood, de-
stroy the happiness of Married Life or prevent the fulfil-
ment of engagements which constitute the most cherished
objects of existence.

By Dr. LA'MERT, 37, Bedford-square, London.

Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh;
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, &c.

The above work contains most useful and interesting
information on the physiological changes which occur '
in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth,
puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that
degree of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity
depend. It also points out how all the attributes of Man-
hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they
ar3 lc st, and how they can be recovered. It is free from the
gross exaggerations, alarming descriptions, and dangerous
remedies so generally resorted to by persons, who, prae-
thstn,, with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious
'fliuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive.
Thj Author Is the only leg-ally qualified practitionr
stands on the Medical Register (the only
whose
true test of Medical qualification), who has been exclft
sively engaged for, series ofyears in the treatment of t-t-t
various functional disc,

PERSIA.

Some trade reports from the British Consuls have
recently been is: tad by the Board of Trade, and
among them a report from the Acting Consul-Gene-
ral at fabreez, giving an account of Azerbijan, the
most important province of Persia. Its capital, Ta-
breez,of which the population is estimated at 200,000,
is the principle emporim of Persian trade. The im-
ports through and from Turkey into Azerbijan
amounted in 1859, to £2,ooo,ooo.dyed and printed
cotton goods being the largest item (comprising seve-
ral descriptions of British coloured manufactures),
and British gray calicoes the next ; large quantities
of the latter are cut up at Tabreez into small pieces,
dyed blue, and then sent to Russia as Persian
manufactures. Broadcloths and most of the miscel-
laneous goods are from Germany. Indigo is an
article of great consumption in Tabreez, and is im-
ported direct from India. The exports to Russia
amounted in 1859 to nearly £BOO,OOO, half of them
smuggled; they include the higher qualities of
British prints, Swiss manufactures, European and
Persian silks, tea, and rum. A small quantity of
silk pieces is manufactured in Tabreez, coarser, but
more durable than European silks ; felt carpets also
and other coarse carpets. The growth of wheat and
barley is large. The cotton is of inferior quality.
There is coal, but it is not used ; and copper and
iron veins, but they are almost entirely neglected,
and a supply obtained from Russia. The climate of
the province generally is healthy and bracing, the
soil fertile, and the inhabitants hardy, active, and
industrious. The revenue is nearly £500,000, but
this sum is said to be far from representing the
amount really collected from the taxpayers. The
revenue of each village is farmed or assigned to a
Government officer in " teeool" (a kind of fief), but
the taxes are underrated to him ; two-thirds are
taken by him, and one-third by the proprietor of the
village. The taxes include one-third of the grain
produce, a tax on gardens, and on fields used for the
cultivation of tobacco, cotton, or madder roots, a
house-tax of lOs 2d on every family, a tax of 2s 3d on
mares and mules, and 4d on sheep and goats; be-
sides which the villagers have to furnish gratis to
the teeool-holder a certain quantity of lambs, fowls,
eggs, milk, wool, &e., and a certain number of la-
bourers if required. But the peasantry are patient
so long as they are not reduced to actual starvation.
The internal transit dues are a serious obstacle to
the extension of commerce—every small town levies
its duties on the goods that pass through it. The
want of cart roads is also a great hindrance—every-
thing is transported on mules, horses, camels, or
asses. If these things were remedied, cart roads
constructed, and a moderate duty made payable
once for all on importation or exportation, the trade
of Persia would rapidly develope itself to a very
considerable extent; and next to Persia, Great Bri-
tain would derive most benefit from these reforms.
As it is, the consumption of British manufactures
in Persia has increased nearly fourfold within the
last 20 years,

TATAL OCCUITRENCE IN THE BiTGEN

CANAL.

~li~~idl~

viand
Yesterday, Dr. Lankester, the Central - iesex
coroner, held an inquest et Bank of En
Cambridge-place, Paddington, touching the (..!eath
of a lad named Thomas Larkin, aged 12 years, re-
siding with his parents at 3, Pat All-street, Lisson-
grove.
The evidence elicited from several witnesses went
to show that a few days ago deceaseo.,, in company
with several other lads, was bathing in the Regent's
Canal, near Maida-hill, and as he came out of the
canal and stood on the bank another boy came up,
and thinking he could swim, he, in a playful mood,
pushed the unfortunate boy into the water. De-
ceased could not swim, and the boy who pushed him
in, seeing him sinl(, became alarmed, and ran for
the drags. Thos. Keating, and another lad named
Donovan, hearing of the occurrence ran to the spot
and attempted a rescue. Keating took off some of
his clothes, and dived into the canal and brought
him up. By the assistance of Donovan the deceased
was got out of the water' still breathing, and taken
to St. Mary's Hospital, where he expired imme-
diately after admission, not withstanding the efforts
mad) to save his life.
The name of the boy who it was alleged had
pushed the deceased into the wat,
er could not be as-
certained, and as some of the evidence was of a
conflicting character, and tended to show that the
death was purely accidental, the jury agreed to re-
turn a verdict of accidental drowning.
The Coroner remarked that it was exceedingly
dangerous for boys to bathe in and have such easy
access to the canal ; and that he had held an inquest
only the other day in a similar case.

Sir,—l have the honour to report to you the dis-
tressing case of the loss of the barque Cubana,
which was abandoned, on fire, off Cape Horn, on
the night of the 20th June last. I enclose a copy
of the statement of the captain and chief mate, with
a list of the crew, from which you will learn the full
particulars. 2. The crew were rescued and brought
into this port, after more than three weeks' inde-
scribable suffering. Two of them have since died ;
several have had their legs and fingers amputated ;
and every care and attention is extended to them
all in order to recover them sufficiently to enable
them to survive the passage borne. 3. I have coin-

municated with Rear-Admiral Warren, Comman-
der-in-Chief of her Majesty's naval forces on the
south-eastern coast of America, with a view to as-

certaining whether I shall be able to forward them
in a vessel of war, as they will, in their present sad
condition, require medical care during the voyage.
4. Those distressed seamen are under the charge of
Mr. Pyne, the acting colonial secretary and ship-
ping master, and the instructions of the board will
be attended to as regards this consequent expendi-
ture.—l have, &c.,

THE MEMBER FROM OVER THE WATER.
To Westminster a member came,
Of the Liberals a supporter,
And he was returned to Westminster,
From the other side of the water.
His father, _Dod said, had smelted lead,

Somewhere down and about that quarter ;
But the gentlefolks all they took off their hats
To the Crcesus from over the water.
With a do, etc.

Now the Lambeth folks this wealthy gent,
As their member did decide on,
,Cos they thought he'd set fire to the river Thames,

What the penny steamers ride on.
But little they knew he'd happened to do
Some things that he didn't oughter—
For he'd forged a will and several deeds,
Had this member from over the water.
With a do, etc.

But he cut such a dash and spent his cash,
That his means ran quickly shorter ;
So at last one day he'd to run away,
T'other side of Biscay water.
But soon from Spain he returned again,
Like a" regular ring-tailed snorter,"
For his family's good to confess his crimes,
And get sent t'other side of the water.
With a do, etc.

Tho confession he made in Guildford town :
'Twas took down by a sharp reporter';
Tried for torgeree at the C. C. C.,
Was this rogue of the very first water.
To begin with, indeed, he refused to plead,
But he changed his game soon arter :
And he didn't come out with his lilywhite hands
From the business done over the water.
With a do, etc.

Now, when Justice Byles had heard what he said,
His eyes ran down with water ;
But he gave him transportation for life,

So he didn't show him much quarter.
And the public said, " Well I this here Roupell
Has got no more than he oughter 1"
So there was an end of the wealthy gent,
As was member for over the water,
And a do, etc.

The Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury en-
tertained a select circle of friends at Hatfield House, Herts,

Lord Clarence Paget, C. 8., M.P., returns to the

duties as First Secretary of the Admiralty.
Lady Coote and family have left Brighton for
Folkestone, en route to the south of France.
Captain the Hon. James Rooert Drummond,
C. 8., has resumed his official duties at the Admiralty,
after spending the customary vacation of two months in
Scotland.

Mr. Monekton Milnes, M.P., has left town on a
visit to Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston, at Broad-
lands, Hants.
Sir Henry and Lady Sophia des Vecux have left
Berkeley-square for their seat in Derbyshire, and also to
visit the Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, at Gedling
Lodge, Nottinghamshire.
A =triage is arranged to take place between
Mr. William Henry Melvill, son of the late Sir James
Cosmo Melville, K.C.8., and the Hon. Elizabeth Theresa
Lister, youngest daughter of the late Lord Ribblesdale,and
stepdaughter of Earl Russell.
Inquiries have been made regarding the cause of
a recent fall in the premium on the shares of the Ocean
Marine Company, but it appears that nothing has occurred
to affect seriously their value. They have, with other com-
panies, lately experienced some losses, which, however, it
is stated, hardly exceed 255. per share, while the price has
been thrown back £3 per share,
