ROYAL SAPPERS AND MINERS.—The whole of the
men of this corps, recently employed at Windsor
Castle, have returned to Woolwich, and describe the
work they were engaged in as the most difficult they
had to contend with, as all their progress was made by
boring through the hard rock, which it would have
been dangerous to effect by blasting. Some idea may
be formed of the scientific abilities of the corps, when it
is stated that the parties engaged in boring operations •
commenced tunnels on the opposite side of the rock on
which the Castle is built, working night and day, by .
relieving each other, and so correct was their progress,
that on reaching the centre there did not exist two
inches of difference where the two tunnels merged into
one.

ROWLAND'S KALYDOR, an eminently
balsamic preparation, is equally celebrated for its safety in
application, as for its mild and soothing operation, in thoroughly
purifying the skin of all redness, pimples, spots, freckles, tan, and
discolourations ; producing a healthy freshness and transparency of
complexion ; and an admired softness and delicacy on the hands,
aims, and neck!
In cases of chilblains, chapped skin, or Incidental inflammation, it
Is pre-eminently successful, and gentlemen after abating will find it
allay all irritation and tenth rness of the skin, and render it soft,
smooth, and pleasant. Balmy, odoriferous, and creamy, its purifying
and refreshing properties have obtained its exclusive selection by the
Court and the Royal Family of Great Britain, and those of the Cont I-
nent of Europe, together with the " elete" of the aristocracy, and
" haute volke."
Its high reputation' indnces unprincipled shopkeepers to offer the
spurious " Kalydors" for sale, composed of mineral astringents,
utterly ruinous to the complexion, and by their repellant action en-
dangering health. It is, theretbre, imperative on purchasers to see
that the words "Rowland's Kalydor" are on the envelope (an en-
graving of exquisite beauty from a steel plate by Messrs. Perkins,
Bacon, and Co.) and that A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Hatton-
garden, are engraved (by authority) on the Government Stamp affixed
on each bottle. Price 4s. 6d. and Cs. ed. per bottle. Sold by the
Proprietors, and by chemists and perfumers.

FOGS AND DAMP AIR.
liiARCLAY'S ASTHMATIC CANDY has, for
many years, been proved an effectual preservative from the
illeffects of the fogs and damp air which, in the winter season, are
so prevalent in this climate. Its effects are to expel wind, to pre-
serve the stomach from the admission of damps, and to relieve those
who stiffer from difficulty of breathing.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Feb. 10.

.Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Justice COLTMAN and a
Middlesex Special Jury, at Westminster.)
GAMBLE V. KURTZ.

This case (which occupied Saturday and Monday, and
the greater,part of this day's sitting), was resumed at the
meeting of the Court this day, when several further wit-
nesses were heard in support of the defendant's case, to
prove that his machinery was not an infringement upon the
plaintiff patent, &c. Drs. Lyon Playfair and Pratt, of
Liverpool, were among those witnesses. The case for the
defence having concluded, and counsel having replied on be-
half of the plaintiff, the Learned Judge summed up, and
the jury retired at about three o'clock to consider their ver-
dict. After having been in consultation for nearly five
hours, they returned into Court with a special verdict, in the
following terms :—" Assuming that the models were correct,
we find that the patent had been infringed. Secondly, that
the invention of the two separate chambers, or furnaces, is
not new, but that the plaintiff's mode of connecting the same
is new. Thirdly, that the specification is sufficient ; and,
fourthly, that the process patented is an improvement upon
the old system of preparing sulphate of soda."
This verdict was not delivered till nearly eight o'clock at
night.

CHESTER.

This was an information, filed by the Attorney-General
against the defendants, for the recovery of penalties alleged
to have been incurred by them in consequence of stamping
certain gold watch cases with the standard assay mark when
the quality of the gold was of less value than eighteen carats,
the fineness which the statute requires for such articles
The ArromsEy.GKNEl si. stated the facts of the ease, in
corroboration of which he called the following witnesses :
Mr. T. Kaye depo3ed that he was in the employment of
Roskil and Son, Liverpool, at the time when the occurrence
took place. First received the watch case numbered 49,941
from Mr. Jones on the 18th January, 1845. It was then in
the rough state to have the movements fitted. When it
was returned to Mr. Jones, on the 19th January, it had the
number upon it. That watch case was amongst the number
of watch cases then before him, as was also the others men-
tioned in the information.
Mr. Christopher Jones, a watch case maker, John Munro,
a shopman, and John Taylor, a carrier, were examined for
the purpose of proving that the watches in question were
those which were sent to the company to be assayed.
Mr. Harding, a drawer in the assay-office in London. de-
posed to the mode of proceeding adopted with regard to
assays. They sometimes assayed the cans by themselves
and sometimes the wires, or in any other Way they thought
it most likely to detect any error.

fifteen years of the Goldsmiths Company of London. He

This was the petition of an independent Company far
leave to bring f a Bill to make a railway from a point on
the Dalkeitit Branch. of the NLrth British Railway to Pee-
Ni.s. Tim line, which was hid out by 31r. D. StnThenson,
is propo9ed to pass through Lasswadt., Loanhead, Roslin, and
Gree»law, by the vale of Eddlewone Water to Peebles: The
estimated cost of the line is 317,0001., which is divided into
1.0.000 shares, of 251. each.
The engineer of the line, in the course of his evidence ex-
plained that the section of the line exhibited a trifling error,
which was occasioned by a mistake of the engineer, who'had
transposed or misplayed a couple of figures, having reference
to a gradient on one portion of the line. No one, however,
could be mislead by this inadvertance, inasmuch as another
measurement on the section, and relating to the same incli•
nation on the line, would supply the exact information re-
quired.

The Commit!ee decided that in this respect the standing
orders had not been complied with, but in all others they had.
The CHAIRMAN, in announcing the decision of the Com-
mittee, remarked that as the err tr could mislead no one, he
had no doubt the objection would be overcome in the Stand-
ing Orders Committee.

Caroline Stecens, a young woman of respectable appearance, was
charged with causing a disturbance at the Haymarket Theatre, and
assaulting the police constable (No. 77 of the A. division) on duty
there. It appeared that about 9 o'clock last evening the defendant,
accompanied by a child of about three years of age, presented herself
at the pit entrance and produced two cheques of the evening. As it is
contrary to the regulations of the theatre to give
cheques to temalt,s,
it was at once known that she
.had not .previously been in the
theatre, and she was consequently refused admission, on which be
became extremely violent, and attempted to force his way past the
cheque taker. She was prevented from doing so, and given Into the
charge of the constable, whom she violently assaulted.
The defendant said the cheques Were given to her by two genic-
men, friends of h2TS, and she thought she had, h
by virtue of them, a
right to enter the theatre.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
NORTH WALES RAILWAY COMPANY v. ARCHER

PORTO YNLI.,AF.N HARBOUR.

This case, which has excited consida-able interest, has been decided
in favour' of the defendant, counsel on behalf of the Company having
mentioned to the Court on Saturday last that they would consent to
allow the injunction to be eissolved. By this move on the part of the
plaintiffs, any expression of opinion by the Court upon the
conduct of the parties will be avoided. It will be
recollected, that after the defendant's counsel had addre sed
the Court in support of the motion to dissolve the injunction, the
matter stood over in consequence of the Vice-Chancellor desiring to
see a case that the plaintiffs thought proper to keep back from him
when they applied mt. their Injunction, and which it appears by the
defendant's answer was laid before Mr. Lloyd, the barrister, on his
behalf, in March last, by Mr. David Williams, the solicitor of
the Company, and in which it was expressly stated that the har-
bour of Portdynllaen was purchased by the defendant for himself,
while no mention, or reference of any kind, was made therein to the
North Wales Railway- Company, nor was anything stated that could
be strained to justify their recent attempt to claim the benefit of the
purchase, and which it appears, moreover, was made seine months
before the Company was thought of or formed.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Feb. 10.
(Before Mr. Justice WIGIITMAN.)
At the sitting of the Court this day, a case was called on
which is not likely to conclude before the rising of the
Court. It is an action arising out of a dispute between two
Frenchmen, one of whom (the plaintiff) alleged that he bad
invented a filter, fer which he was to receive a certain sum
from his partner (the defendant), who denied the claim. The
cake is of no interest to the public.

AND HALSTEAD RAILWAY.

Mr. Parkes appeared for the promoters.
The formal proofs for the plans and sections and books of
reference were put in.
Mr. WEBSTER appeared on a petition against the Bill.
Mr. PARKES objected to the petition being received. The
names attached to the petition were not signed by the par-
ties themselves, and it was therefore contrary to the standing
orders to present such a petition. .
Mr. WEBSTER said he would prove that the promoters
were authorised by the petitioners to sign for them. The pe-
titioners were obliged to leave town before the petition was
quite ready for signing.
The CHAIRMAN wished to know if the authority was by
letter or merely verbal? This certainly was a petition sent
from the House.
Mr. WEBSTER—Some of the parties had authorised ver-
bally, and some by letters.
Mr. PARKE.S would object to the petition on the ground that
it was not prepared at the time the parties had authorised it
to be signed.
Mr. WEBSTER said that in law a bill of exchange signed
by the verbal authority of a party, was held to be a good •
bill, and to be recovered upon-
Mr. PArates—ln that case the party should be cognizant
of the contents of the bill, but here it was admitted that the
petition was not ready when the parties authorised their
names to be signed. How could it be maintained that they
knew anything of the contents of the petition ? It was tin-
possible for them to know whether there was or was not
matter in the petition which they, if cognizant of, would
not allow their names to be used.
The room was then ordered to be cleared, and the Chair-
man went to consult the Speaker.
After some time spent in considering the question, the par-
ties were called in.
The Car craziaN said that he had been to consult the
Speaker upon the question raised by Mr. Parkes as to the
validity of the signatures to the petition. The petition
having come to the Committee through the House of Com-
mons, it was not to be rejected without the opinion of the
Speaker. He had, however, left the House, and therefore
the decision of the Committee would be postponed till that
opinion was had.

any information from St. Petersburgh relative to the
cruelties supposed to have been exercised under the
sanction of the Emperor of RUSSIA towards the

ceived had been exaggerated. The Emperor of
