LAUSON V. HULME.

The plaintiff, and the defendant axe both females. The
plaintiff, who had been cook to the defendant; brought her
action to recover four guineas, the amount of a quarter's wages..
Mr. James Hulme, a young gentleman of fashionable
appearance,. the defendant's eldest son, was examined for
the plaintiff, and proved that she had been hired by his
mother at the rate 'of sixteen pounds a year, and had en-
tered into her service on the 17th of July, and continued in
it WI the 2d of September, on which day Mrs. Hulme hav-
ing called, her. froth the head of the kitchen stairs, she made
no answer, and Mrs.Huhne having again called, the servants
in the kitchen asked the plaintiff, " Did she not bear her mis-
tress call ?". The plaintiffreplied, " Much I care for that."—
Mrs. Hulme insisted on her leaving her service instantly, and
her wages to the day being calculated by the witness at 3/. Gs.
60., that sum was offered her, which she refused tUtake, say-
ing she had agreed for 16 guineas 'a year; and
,would consult
With her friends.

The piaintiff's case closed. here.
There was no evidence for the defendant.

:The Learned Judge charged the Jury, that although the de-
fendant hired the plaintiff' at yearly wages,. she still retained
the power of discharging her. at any moment for misconduct ;
and the answer she had given When 'called by her mistress was
such misconduct as would justify dis Charging her ; but they
were to examine whether the sum tendered in payment of her
wages amounted to the sum actually due. .
.The Jury returned a' verdict for the plaintiff 31.125. ;
.which
entitles the plaintiff to costs.

bITY, FRIDAY EVENING.

Mails arrived this day at the Post Office from
Flanders and Holland, which do not communicate any political
intelligence. The letters by the Dutch Mail froni St. Peters-
burgh are dated on the 20th ult. (/4.5.). The Exchange was
10. 1-32. Tallow had again declined-to 1013 rubles, but there
were no buyers of it at such high Prices, and in general trade
was exceedingly dull. Here on the Baltic walk the trade pur-
chase tallow very sparingly at 43. Yesterday, however, the
speculators bought some at 45., by which some heavy wagers
were decided.

In Mincing-lane the sugar market continues to improve.—
The sales of the week have been very considerable, and the ad-
vance since this day week cannot be reckoned- under 2s. a cwt.
The speculative inquiry still continues, for the very low prices
have attracted the notice of capitalists. Fine quality is worth
725. a 785., and curiously fine has been sold at 80s. ; good,
655. to 70s. ; middling, 60s. to 645. ; and brown, at 535. to 58s.
per cwt.

The Rum Contract, which was taken at a fraction under
is. sd. has not had any material effect on the market, and prices
remain the same as for some time past.
Coffee is rather heavy this week, which rimy be attributed to
the great proportion of ordinary and Triage, which has been
brought forward for sale. Prices of the better descriptions are,
however, fully maintained.
At Mark-lane, contrary winds continue to render the sup-
plies of Grain'unusually small; but large arrivals are expected,
and consumers will not purchase until they be received. The
business done this day in Grain is so small, that it is impossible
to quote any change in prices.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY

It was rumoured in Vienna on the 13th, that the
Austrians had entered Buda and the Russians Pesth,
but the rumour needs confirmation. The fortifica-
tions of Buda have been destroyed by GEORGEY,
therefore the possession or the loss of Buda or Pesth
is, in a strategetic point of view, of no importance.
The Russians have been compelled to evacuate
Debricsin and to fall back, appalled by the difficulties
of the task they have undertaken to accomplish, diffi-
culties of which they had no conception until they
were compelled to face them. In the meantime the
Hungarians in the neighbourhood of Raab, inspirited
by the two victories of GEORGEY at Acs, have resumed
the offensive, and have forced back the Russo• Austrian
army under HAYNAU. BEss, who is at Szegedin has
been joined by the Magyar troops who were at
Debrecsin.

Several persons who were convicted of being accom-
plices in the hanging of LATOUR at Vienna, in October,
have been sentenced to death. The sentence has, in
every instance been commuted to hard labour in the
public works.

LONDON. THURSDAY, JULY 19. 1849.

Yesterday, in answer to a deputation from the
Committee of Liberal electors in the metropolis, the
Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR explicitly, avowed his
intention of accepting the candidateship for the re-
presentation of the city of London in Parliament.
Beyond this acknowlenlgment, his Lordship candidly
explained his political feelings upon many points of
considerable importance. Not that the constituency
of the capital could be considered as entirely ignorant
of
the general bearing of the policy favourably re-
garded by Sir Jamas DUItE. His conduct through-
out the period of his mayoralty, not to say
the course adopted by him throughout the time of
his being one of the members of the corporation, has
been sufficient to prove to the citizens of the metro-
polis that their chief magistrate is, in all essential
particulars, a legi,lator- actuated by the most en-
en-
lightened views and by the most liberal principles.
Neverth,dess, there still remained one or two parti-
culars upon which it was absolutely requisite that
the LORD MAYOR should plainly declare his senti;
meets. Respecting him as a high civic functionary,
and eiteezning him as a fellow-citizen, and as a
participator in their commercial enterprises,
it was still imperatively necessary that the
electors of the city of London should arrive at some
distinct and positive understanding in reference to his
intentions, for example, with regard to the Jewish
Disabilities. Having so very recently, by a splendid
majority of suffrages, pledged the capital tcrthe labour

THE BIRMINGHAM AND OXFORD JUNCTION.
Yesterday a grand dinner was given by the dissentient
directors and shareholders of the Birmingham and Oxford
line on the occasion of presenting a piece of plate to Mr.
Charles Joseph Mozley, in testimony of the ability, zeal,
and . energy with which he had successfully promoted
their interests in the recent protracted contest with the
Great Western Railway. The entertainment took place
at the Crown and Sceptre, Greenwich, and among the
company, which was strictly of a representative charac-
ter, embracing many of the leading directors and officials
of the narrow gauge lines, were Lord Greenock, Mr.
Glyn, Mr. T. Smith, Mr. L. Mozley, Colonel Matheson,
M.P., the Hon. Captain Gough, the Hon. Captain Car-
negie, Mr. Locke, M.P., Mr. Pepton, Mr. S. Thornton,
Mr. Beale, Mr. A. Dobie, Mr. C. E. Stewart, Mr. Joseph
Sanders, Mr. Swift, Mr. S. Carter, iflrc. Captain Bigge,
who occupied the chair, after the usual introductory
toasts, having adverted in terms of glowing eulogy 50
the meritorious aid successful exertions of their (liana-
guiihed guest, presented to Mr. Mosley the superb
.piece
of plate which had been subscribed for him, consisting
of a gigantic candelabrum in frosted silver, with two
magnificent wine-coolers, valued at between 7001. and
8004 which bore the following inscription:—" Presented
to Charles Joseph Mozley, Esq., by those friends and
fellow-shareholders in the Birmingham and Oxford
Junction Railway, who witnessed with admiration and
remember with gratitude the energy, judgment, and
ability displayed by him throughout an arduous and
protracted struggle in defence of their common interests.
June, 1849." Mr. Mozley returned thanks in a speech
of great feeling and eloquence, which was much ap-
plauded. The healths of Mr. Glyn, of the North.
Western Railway, Mr. Locke, M.P., Mr. Beale, of the
Midland Railway, and various other toasts, were then
drunk, the conviviality being prolonged till near wide
night.

LITERATURE.

REMARKS ON THE SUBJECT OF AN
ASYLUM HARBOUR. By the late Mr. John
Harvey.
The very circumstance that this excellent little
treatise has already gone through seven editions is
sufficient to demonstrate that it has spoken to the
purpose, and that, too, in reference to no mere fanciful
or impracticable project. Our only astonishment is
that it remained for Mr. John Harvey to point out
the advisability of such a great national undertaking
as that of constructing an asylum harbour for Port-
land Roads ; or, that the proposition having been
once made, the scheme has not long since been
carried into effect through the instrumentality
of the Government. While France has accom-
plished such a glorious work as that com-
menced by Louis XV. at Cherbourg, England,
the greatest maritime nation in the world, has
remained idle as far as any emulative movement is
concerned. This fact must be of no longer duration.
The administrators of Great Britain must recognize
the necessity of undertaking some such magnificent
labour, especially when it is certain that thousands
would thereby obtain profitable employment during
five years at least, the smallest period of the most
sanguine computation. We cannot but think that
the spot selected by the author of this
intelligent pamphlet is, for a variety of reasons,
about the best that could have been chosen along the
whole length of our coasts. Portland Roads afford-
ing, as every mariner knows, either by repute or
experience, an admirable anchorage, and consisting
principally of strong blue clay, with scarcely any
tide whatever, would manifestly be a most suitable re-
gion for the establishment of such an asylum har-
bour. As to the capacity of the coast there-
abouts to afford shelter to vessels it is
only necessary to observe that there would be
ample room for a fleet of sixty sail of the line to ride
at anchor "during every vicissitude of winds and
weather." The projector suggests that the length
of the breakwater should be somewhere about two
miles and a quarter, for this reason, that it would
thus completely screen Weymouth pier, harbour, and
bathing-place whenever it might blow hard from the
south-east. We cannot detect, indeed, throughout
the whole of the brochure one single proposition not
based upon an adequate necessity. Everything unites
to force this scheme just now upon the attention or
the public, and upon the acceptance of the Govern-
ment.

M. Claudet has just published a portrait of Lord
Brougham, lithographed by W. Bosley, from the
Daguerreotype taken by M. Claudet himself. Never
have we see❑ so striking a likeness as this. The
mind is mirrored in the features, and the
expression of intellectual activity has been admi-
rably caught. As a life-like likeness this portrair is
superior even to that of the Duke of Wellington.

The same official journal states that the Minister of

69th Regiment of Infantry, for acts of violence
against his superior officers, has been commuted by
the PRESIDENT of the Republic to hard labour for

In consequence of the enthusiastic manner in which
the PRESIDENT of the Republic was received at

which he has received from Bordeaux and Nantes,

France during the course of the autumn.
The Committee on the Budget have held several

taxes be necessary, but that a new loan also must be
contracted for. With regard to the reductions' M.
FRIERS demonstrated the impossibility of any reduc-
tion in the war department. Russia, he said, at the
present moment compelled every power to place it-
self on a war footing. We are rejoiced to find that,
notwithstanding his reactionary propensities, M.
TRIERS has not yet lost all his old traditions. We
feared he was on the point of becoming altogether

A letter from Berlin of the 15th says that the re-

suppressing the insurrection at Dresden, had been re-

had produced a most painful impression. The De-

Ministerial party was actually exerting itself to in-

It appears from a n.port of time chairman of the London

expected that the portion yet remaining unfinished
might, if a larger number of hands were employed,
and a vigorous effort made, bo entirely completed
to the south bank of the Doe, at Aberdeen,
by the middle of September next, instead of only
to within 12 miles from Aberdeen, as originally ooa.
templated. With a view to effect this object, the direc-
tors have given the engineer instructions to press on the

The following is the reply of Lord PALMERSTON
to a letter from MANIN, the President of the Venetian
Republic, soliciting the joint interference of England
and France, and the recognition by those powers of
the independence of Venice from Austria, the sub-
stance of which we gave in our Third Edition last
evening :

of your letter ot the 4th ult., and to assure you, in
reply, that the Government of her Majesty has beheld,

made by the populati not only the severe sacrifices

twelve months, in furtherance of the cause they have
espoused, but also the order which has been main
tamped in the city during the whole of that period. But
as regards the wish you have expressed in favour of
your fellow-citizens, that Venice should cease to belong to
Austria, the Government of her Majesty can only say
that the treaty of Vienna, of which England is one or
and France in August last
the contracting parties, designated Venice as formiag
part of the Austrian state, and that the proposals or
mediation made by England
were not with a view to the alteration of that clause oi

AUSTRIA.

The young Emperor of Austria profits by the in-

from the Vienna papers that certain Austrian
ladies of rank offended in some manner or
other the young Emperor Francis Joseph, and
whereupon this boy of 18 ordered them to be arrested
and flogged, which was done. It may become a
question whether or not the representatives of these
women floggers ought to he received at the Court of
a Queen on the same footing as the representatives of
civilized nations. At all events, no man of any decent

BADEN.

The number of the Baden insurgent army which

They allowed themselves to be disarmed.

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 15th says that the re-
giment of ALEXANDER, which took an active part in
suppresAng the insurrection at Dresden, had been re-
ceived with the greatest enthusiasm on its return to
Berlin. The defeat of General BON IN at Fredericka
had produced a most painful impression. The De-
mocratic party had revolved to take no part in the
elections which were about to take place ; but the
Ministerial party was actually exerting itself to in-
duce the middle and working classes to vote.
London, England, 1849-07-19

HOME.

The Etsrl of MALMESBURY said that he knew that
several persons who had s• rved in the Republican army
at Rome bad arrived here within the last tew days with
British passports, signed by Mr. Freeborn, the
British Consul there. The lives of those
persons were not in danger, and he could
not understand why Mr. Freeborn should have given the
British passports. He arktd if Mr. Freeborn acted upon
orders from England or upon his own responsibility?
The Marquis of LAN sr,DOWNE, who spoke in ♦ery
low tone, was understood to say that Mr. Freeborn
had given the passports on his own responsibility, but
he believed that the passports had been given because
the persons were in danger of their lives, and, therefore,
he might have thought himself justified on the score of
humanity.
Lord BROUGHAM thought it a most important
question, because an English passport was always
respected, and such a proceeding might diminish
the respect paid to it, and this might expose
English travellers to ittconvc,nit,nee. He did not believe
that passports were of much benefit, because every
knave who sought to escape from justice
always took care to have a passport en regle.
The Earl of MINTO said he had received a letter
from Mr. Freeborn, in which he said that he had been
engaged iu giving passports to persons who had compro-
mised theinselve,, and who therefore might, it taken, be
shot, and that humanity had dictated the steps he had
taker.
After a few words from the Earl of MAL MESBURY,
the su►eject dropped.

BILL.

This Bill passed through Committee.
TITLES OF RELIGIOUS CONGREGATIONS
(SCOTLAND) BILL.
Lord CAMPBELL moved the second reading of this
Bill. The object of the Biil was to facilitate the transfer
of congregational trust property from expiring trusts
to new trustees.
Lord REDESDALE thought the Bill had passed the
House of Commons without due consideration, the Bill
baying been passed through every one of its stages after
twelve o'clock at night. The effect of the Bill would
be to establish every Dissenting body, and he believed
the Bill had been brought in solely to subserve the in-
terests of the Free Church, and he therefore hoped the
Bill would be wi:hdrawn.
Lord BROUGHAM considered that the Bill afforded
a remedy to a great griev,nce, and therefore he should
support it. The Free Church, although not the ma-
jority, comprised a considerable minority of the people of
Scotland.
The Earl of ABERDEEN, although he did not enter-
tain any objection to the principle of the 8111, yet consi-
dered it such a specimen of hasty legislation that he
thought it would he but decorous in the Noble and
Learned Lord to postpone the measure.
Lord POLWARTH also urged the postponement of
the further consideration of the Bill.
Lord CAMPBELL said, that as the Bill was simply
to alter the manner in which the transfer of the property
was to take place from one set of trustees to another, he
could not admit that it wus a species of hasty legisla-
tion,
and he could not consent to postpone it. He knew
that the Bill had been deliberately considered, and had
received the approbation of those most interested in the
question.
After a few words from Lord REDESDALE and Lord
BEAUMONT, the Bill was real a second time.
HEALTH OF TOWNS (SCOTLAND) BILL.
Lord POLWARTH asked when this Bill would be
brought forward.
The Earl of CARLISLE regretted exceedingly that
it would be in- posAtbl," to pass the Biil during the course
of the present session, but he hoped it would bt one of
the first measures to be brought forward during the
next session of Parliament.

LITERATURE.
REMARKS ON THE SUBJECT OF AN
ASYLIYM HARBOUR. By the late 11Ir. John
Harvey.
The very circumstance that this excellent little
treatise has already gone through seven editions is
sufficient to demonstrate that it has spoken to the
Purpose, and that, too, in reference to no mere fanciful
or impracticable project. Our only astonishment is
Itiat it remained for Mr. John Harvey to point out
the advisability of such a great national undertaking
,a that of constructing an asylum harbour for Port-
land Roads; or, that the proposition having been
once made, the scheme has not long since been
carried into effect through the instrumentality
of the Government. While France has accom-
plished such a glorious work as that com-
menced by Louis XV. at Cherbourg, England,
the greatest maritime nation in the world, has
remained idle as far as any emulative movemetit is
,e,,,oncerned. This fact must be ano longer duration.
!tie
administrators of Great Britain must recognize
ecessity of undertaking some such magnificent
labour, especially when it is certain that thousands
would thereby obtain profitable employment during
67e years at least, the smallest period of the most
sanguine computation. We cannot but think that

principally of strong blue clay, with scarcely any

only necessary to observe that there would be

FINE ARTS.
PORTRAIT OF LORD BROUGHAM.
Claudet has just published a portrait of Lord
Brougham, lithographed by W. Bosley, from the
Daguerreotype taken by M. Claudet himself. Never
have we seen so striking a likeness as this. The
mind is mirrored in the features, and the
expression of intellectual activity has been admi-
rably caught. As a life-like likeness this portrait is
superior even to that of the Duke of Wellington.
Every admirer of Lord Brougham should possess
this portrait. It is the man himself

THE DANISH WAR.

A letter from Frankfort, of the 14th, addressed to
the Cologne Gazette, says that the Vicar of the Em-
pire has protested against the conclusion of an armis-
tice between Prussia and Denmark without the
participation, of the Central Government. The States
of the Dueby of Brunswick have made a similar
protest; and, according to the Altona Gazette, the
Governor, President, and Vice-Presidents of the
National Assembly of Schleswig-Holstein have also
adopted a protest, and resolved not to execute the
armistice.
