Henry Ashton,
Ashton arose out of a previous assault committed by Mr.
Hawkins on a Mr. Crawford, described as " quite a little
lad—no match for Mr. Hawkins, at any rate." This assault
was committed in a ball-room, at the house of Mr. Crompton.
Later in the evening, as Mr. Hawkins was expressing his
regret at what had happened to some of the party, Mr.
Ashton said his conduct had been very ungentlemanly ; on
which Mr. Hawkins struck him. Mr. Letang, for the defen-
dant, stated that Mr. Ashton would not accept an apology
without exacting more from his client than, as an officer,
he could admit. The Chief Justice, in his charge, said that
plaintiff had done right to come before a jury rather than
have recourse to duelling. The jury found a verdict for the
plaintiff—Damages, 100/.
CURRENTS OF THE OCEAN.—" The bottle containing
this paper was thrown from her Britannic Majesty's ship
Erebus, eight P. 3t., 4th April, 1842, in lat. 53 59 south, and
long. 60 47 west. Whoever may find it, is requested to for-
ward the paper to the Secretary of the Admiralty, London,
with the date, together with a notice of the latitude and
longitude where found. James Ross, captain. Terror in com-
pany." [The foregoing paper was picked up at Cape Lip-
trap, on this coast, about the middle of September last, ap-
parently only a few days on the beach. The figures and
words marked by us in italics were in darker ink than the
document itself, and must have been filled in by the captain
(whose signature is appended), a few minutes before com-
mitting it to the ocean. The writing appears as fresh as if
just written.—ED. Port Philip Herald.]
IRON MASTERS' QUARTERLY MEETINGS.—DITDLEY,
SATURDAY.—The last of the usual quarterly meetings of the
ironmasters of South Staffordshire and Shropshire was held
this evening. The attendance at the hotel was numerous.
The prices adopted at Birmingham were "bolstered up ;"
but, as at the previous meetings of the week, there was an
inclination for " adrop."

" It is positively affirmed," says the Courrier Francais,
" that when the Queen of England visits Paris, Prince Albert
will be treated with royal honours. It is known that during
the excursion which the Sovereign of Great Britain took to
Germany, the Prince received only the honours paid to the
members, not the heads of royal families, and that Queen
Victoria was mach anuoyed at it."
