THE FRACAE IN HYDE-PARK.

The recent fracas in Rotten-row between two retired
officers of the Indian army formed the subject of a magis-
terial investigation yesterday at Marlborough-street. The
complainant, Major Robert Gordon, of 32, Clarges-street,
summoned Major F. C. Kane, of 16, Piccadiliy, for hay-
ing asshulted him. The dispute had its origin in the
accidental spilling of some wine over a lady's dress at a
supper attended by the complainant and the defendant.
Counsel for the latter suggested that the affair should be
remitted to a military tribunal, but to this the magis-
trate declined to accede. The case was therefore sent
to the sessions for trial, the defendant's bail in £lO
and one surety in £5 having been accepted for his ap-
pearance.

INFRINGEMENT OF GUINNESS'S TRADE-

MARK.

In the Rolls Court yesterday the case of Arthur
Guinness, Son, and Co. v. Cullen and Leitch was heard.
The action was for infringing the trade-mark of the cele-
brated brewers, Messrs. Guinness and Co. Mr. Jessel,
Q.C., said the defendants had used a label not identical
with but very similar to that of the plaintiffs, and they
have agreed that we shall take it as a notice of motion
for a decree making that injunction which we ask per-
petual, and that they shall pay the costs of the suit and
£2O damages. It is a very strong case, or, as your lord-
ship wall imagine, they would not submit to those terms.
We should not have asked for damages if it had not been
that we had supplied them with true labels free of ex-
pense ; but, notwithstanding that, they chose to imitate
it.—The injunction was granted.

THE HEALTH OF MR. CHILDERS.—The 7 Imes
announces the immediate return of the First Lord to
the Admiralty, his health being much recruited by the
rest in the pure country air. He will probably resume
a portion of his official duties next week. At a consulta-
tion recently held with Mr. Paget and Mr. Robert Ellis,
it was decided that a moderate share of work would not
now be injurious to him, provided it can be followed by
a more complete repose during the approaching Parlia-
mentary recess.

THE SERPENTINE.—We (Tinzes) have much
pleasure in announcing that • our remonstrances and those
of the public have prevailed, and that a contract will be
signed this day, by which, in consideration of an addi-
tional sum of £5,000, the contractor will bind himself to
remove the whole of the mud from the bed of the Serpen-
tine. This will, however, leave the Serpentine much too
deep for the safety of bathers, but it would cost, it is said,
no less than £28,000 to fill it up to a safe depth with
gravel, or any other acceptable substitute for the mud
which will be removed.

The Erie Railway Company has applied for an
injunction to restrain the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern and the New York Central and Hudson River
Railroads from co-operating to its detriment.

and beneficially upon, the blood and circulation as Hollo-
