WOOL.
Last week's imports into London were large—viz., 12
bales from Buenos Ayres, 10 from Naples, 1,700 from
Adelaide, 363 from Taganrog, 1,800 from Launceston,
18 from Trieste, 68 from the Cape, 201 from Odessa,

Havre, 25 from Hamburg:), 500 from Wellington, 77
from Alexandria, 617 from Bombay, 46 bags from
Oporto, and 114 from Seville. The amount of business
doing by private contriict is very limited, at barely ste.
tionary prices.

CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)

ROBINSON V. GELDART.
Mr. JAMES PARKER Concluded his arguments is
this appeal, which was opened on Saturday, and
Mr. SINCLAIR and Mr. BARTON were heard on the
same side.

VICE-CHANCERY.-7(THIS DAY.)

(Before Vice-Chancellor Sit: G. K. BRUCE.)
His Honour this morning proceeded with the part
heard case Jones so. Price; the details of which are In.
teresting only to the parties concerned.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir G. TURNER.)
DALGLISH V. JARVIE.
This case, which was opened on Saturday, was pro-
ceeded with this morning.
The following are the circumstances of the case:—A
bill was filed in 1849 for an injunction to restrain the
defendant from applying a " certain design for calico
prints, and from publishing, selling, or ex-
posing for sale any such calico or other woven
fabric to which such design, or any design being the
same as, or a fraudulent imitation of, the plaintiffs'
design, should have been so applied." An exparte in-
junction to the same effect in substance bad been granted
by the Vice-Chancellor of England, but he had dis-
solved it upon motion. The order dissolving the jejune-
"

tion was appealed from, and was heard before Lord
Langdale and Mr. Baron Rolfe, sitting as Lords Com-
missioners, in July last, when the Court refused the
appeal motion, with costs. The plaintiffs, who are
muslin and calico printers, at Manchester, and at Lennox
Mills, Glasgow, had registered the design, which was
for a sprig pattern, on the 19th of December, 1848.
The term of protection given by the Copyright Designs
Act, sth and 6th Viet., chap. 100 (Mr. Emerson Ten-
nent's Act), was nine calendar months, which would
have expired in September, 1849. Under these circum-
stances the question is, to what relief, if any, the plain-
tiffs are now entitled, inasmuch as protection is out -of
the question, and the only doubt is whether, the bill
being brought to a hearing, under such circumstances
the Court will decree an account, without sending the
parties to law, when a verdict would seem to be useless,
except so far as it may ultimately affect the question of
costs.

Mr. Rolt and Mr. Daniel were for the plaintiffs, and
Mr. Bethell and Mr. Prendergast for the defendant, who
is a calico printer at Manchester, and who contended
that the design or pattern is of French origin.
(The arguments were not concluded when we went to
press.)

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco.)
ROE V. MANSER.

Lord CAMPBELL said the Court, without wishing to
cast any imputation on the plaintiff, thought there was
sufficient doubt in the case to justify them in directing
a new trial without payment of costs.

THE SUN, LONDON,

THE GREAT EXHIBITION.
(MIS DAY.)

At eleven o'clock this morning 17,33 persons had
been admitted into the Crystal Falser; at twelve
o'clock this number had risen to 35,293, a number
greater even than that of Monday last, when 34,311
persons passed in during the same period, of whom,
however, 21,526 passed in during the first hour. The
number entering in the first hour tosday was consider-
ably greater than the number of these who passed in
during the whole of Saturday ; for, according to the
police returns, about 14,000 were admitted on that day.
The receipts on Saturday were 1,670/. lls , of which
1,634/. 17s. 6d. was taken at the doors in ss. This
added to the amount previously received,
makes the total receipts of the Commissioners
up to the 14th of June amount to 225,6051. 14e. The
sale of season tickets does not seem to be yet over, for
35/. was received on Saturday from this item. With
the bright sun beams streaming in, and the gaily dressed
crowd which they hid tempted out, the Cyrstal Palace
presented this morning quite a gala appearance. The
old elm in the back-ground looks quite fresh and green
after the wa'erings which have been bestowed upon
it; the exotic plants around seem to be equally flourish-
ing. The beds of flowers around are continually renewed
whenever they begin to assume a drooping appearance,
and with the fountains among them sending up their
clear streams in the sunlight, and diffusing a
cooling freshness around, we can scarcely fancy a more
enchanting scene than is presented by the transept on
such a day as the present. The visitors this morning
were composed of a pretty fairly proportionate mixture
of all ranks; Saint Monday had afforded an opportunity
to numbers of the working classes, while the beautiful
day had tempted almost as many more of a higher rank
to visit the exhibition. Cotton and silk, superfine broad-
cloth and velveteen were pretty well mingled in the
various departments of the building, everybody,
apparently, in the highest good humour and in
pursuit of enjoyment. The Koh-i-Noor has been
placed in a tent, and surrounded with a blaze of gas, in
order to draw forth its lustre; but from the present ar-
rangement, we confess, we can perceive no difference.
Her Majesty, in the course of her inspection on Satur-
day, was pleased to make several purchases, and more
particularly in the department devoted to the display of
Norwich shawls. The machinery department also was
visited and inspected with considerable minuteness
by the Royal party, and the dioptric light for light-
houses was also lighted up for their inspection, and
the principles of refraction, by which its brilliant
glare is produced from a single small light, were ex-
plained by Professor Cowper. Later in the day this
gentleman delivered a lecture in the great lecture-room
on this lighthouse, to a numerous class of students.
Professor Ansted also delivered a lecture on gems and
precious stones.

BATTY'S GREAT NATIONAL HIPPO-
DROME, KENSINGTON.
Next to the Great Exhibition itself, we must class, as
foremost is its gigantic proportion and the wondrous
feats of art which are displayed in it, Batty's Great Na-
tional Hippodrome. Nothing has ever been witnessed
like it in this country before, and probably in no country
since the decline and fall of the Roman Empire, and the
destruction of the vast ampitheatres of the Caesars by
the barbarous hordes of Northern Europe. Except that
the lofty walls are wanting, you might almost fancy that
you had the ground plan of the Coliseum at your feet;
and although the savage amusements of the pagan world
—its combats of wild beasts and gladiators—are wanting
others more consonant with modern civilization, and of
unsurpassable excellence, are afforded in abundance. The
three brothers, Debach, are indeed wonderful equestri-
ans; for agility and grace we have never seen them sur-
passed. The Numidian Race on a naked horse by Mon-
sieur Yuny, and flight of the Scotchman with the sylph
by M. Debach, sen., and Mademoiselle Soulier, are
astonishing performances, while the triumphal race
of the Roman Consuls by the brothers above named,
each guiding six horses in mad career, produces a burst
of excitement amongst the spectators. The fleet race
by five English jockeys—ladies equipped in black caps,
red jackets, and black velvet riding skirts—afford a most
animating sight, and actually creates amongst the male
lookers on something like the betting furore which may
be witnessed on the grand stands of Epsom and Doncas-
ter. Then comes the Ostriches of the Desert, with their
Arab riders, outstripping with their long and stately
strides the hunters who pursue them on horseback, and
the Roman Chariot race which reminds us of the still
earlier classical traditions of Alcibiades and Alexander
at the Olympic games. We have not space this week
to record half of the almost centaurian exploits which
rapidly succeed each other, to the accompaniment of two
magnificent brass bands, the effect of which is heightened
by reverberation from the concave enclosure of the
arena. Then there are the Votigeurs and posture
masters, the like of whom we have never seen , be-
fore, and Monsieur_ Pabois exhibiting his terrific ex-
ploits upon Corde Crescente. The moat extraordinary
teats, however, are certainly M. Frantz Debach's
ascents and descents over fearful inclined planes upon
the Arienne Ball. The plank up and down which he
urges the ball is not wider than the diameter
of the ball itself, and yet he conducts it to and from the
dizzy heights, first walking forwards and backwards
upon it, with perfect safety. The exercise must have
cost him a wonderful degree of practice, and is suggestive
of some fine mechanical studies on the composition of
rotatory motions. We must add that the performances
are opened by a grand procession, and then a sort of
tournament a routrance, in which the intelligence and
docility of the trained seeds are displayed to perfection;
and the whole closes—or did on our last visit—with by
far the most exciting scene—the Barbary race of twelve
unmounted horses, each dashing headlong forward as if
it had an imaginary Mazeppa on its back, and all with
distended nostrils, eyes of fire, and streaming manes,
making more rapidly fo`r the gaol as acclamations from
the surrounding thowands urge them on in the contest
for victory. We can assure our provincial as well as our
metropolitan friends that if they do not pass a few even-
ings with Mr. Batty at the Hippodrome, they will have
missed the best sight to be seen on this great sight-
seeing occasion.

THE EXPOSITOR.—Practice has already tended very
considerably to develope the energies of those who have
undertaken the conduct of this intelligent and valuable
publication. As a weekly illustrated recorder of the
inventions, designs, and manufactures displayed in the
Crystal Palace, it cannot fail to be interesting to the
visitors to the Exhibition. The current number, now
lying before us, is adorned with sketches of a cheval
glass by Messrs. Herring, of a stove and fender by
Messrs. Darby, and of groups of sculpture, such as
Emanueli's " Feeding the Young," as Linden's " Vir-
gin and Child," and as that of " Night adored by the
Pleiades." With this, moreover, might be enumerated
a variety of other excellent contributions, both written
and pictorial.
TRINITY MONDAY.—This being Trinity Monday,
the corporation of the Trinity, of which his Grace the
Duke of Wellington is principal Master, proceeded to the
Trinity House at Deptford. The Master, Wardens,, and
Elder Brethren walked iu procession from the Trinity House,
Tower•hill, and took water in the Trinity yacht. After ar-
riving at Deptford, and going through the customary an-
nual business, they went, accompanied by the pensioners, to
the church of St. Nicholas to hear Divine service. A grand
banquet will take place at the Trinity House in the evening.
to which her Majesty's Ministers, Foreign Ambassadors, &c.,
are invited. A fair for three days will be held according to
custom.

EXTENSIVE SWINDLING IN LIVERPOOL.—At the
Liverpool Police-court, on Saturday, two men, named John
Smith and W. J. Chew, were committed for trial, the ma-
gistrates refusing to accept bail, for swindling. By a system
of mock auctions the prisoners have reaped a large harvest;
and a charge of detrauding Mr. Peter Wilson of the respec-
tive sums or 71. los. and 71. 55., for two alleged gold watches,
being clearly established, the witnesses were bound over to
prosecute. _ _

•
KING'S COLLEGE, STRAND.—Yesterday (Sunday)
morning a sermon, in aid of the hospital in connexion with
the above establisment, was preached at the College Chapel
by the Hon. and Rev. H. M. Villiers, M.A. During a very
eloquent appeal the reverend gentleman warmly dwelt
upon the numerous benefits of the charity, and the many
claims it had upon the sympathy and assistance of the
benevolent. Upwards of 26,000 patients had been treated
last year, and there was every reason to believe that the
number during the present year would be augmented by
several thousands. At the conclusion of Divine service a
very liberal collection was made in behalf of the hospital
funds.

TOTAL LOSS OF THE PLYMOUTH PACKET.— On
Saturday intelligence was received at Lloyd's that on Thurs-
day
,evening, the 13th inst., the Plymouth packet, while on
her voyage from Penzance to Liverpool, struck on a sunken
rock rounding the Scilly, and almost instantly foundered,
every soul on board perishing. Besides her crew of eight
men, she had about eighteen emigrants, proceeding to Liver-,
pool to go out to America. Their names are not at present
known.

DEPARTURE or TIIE Eueore.—Tbis remarkably
fine and popular steam-ship, belonging to the British and
North American Royal Mail Steam-ship Company, and
commanded by Captain Lott, left the Mersey at noon on
Saturday, for Halifax and Boston, having on board the
mails for the United States and the British provinces, a
large and valuable cargo of merchandise, and upwards of 80
passengers.

REGISTER ! REGISTER ! REGISTER !—Yesterday
the usual annual notice from the overseers of parishes rela-
tive to the claim of registration was affixed to the various
church doors. All poor and assessed rates due to the sth of
January last must be paid on or before the 20th of July next,
otherwise the parties' names will not be inserted in the
registry for votes.

THE MARQUIS OF HUNTLEY.--We are happy to
state that some improvement has exhibited itself in the
health of this venerable nobleman, although his Lordship is
AU pronounced out of danger.

The Archbishop of Canterbury held an ordination
yesterday morning, at Lambeth Palace, and admitted a large
number of young men into the ministry of the Church of
England. _

FALLING OF A HOUSE.—TWO LIVES LOST.•On
Saturday, between 12 and 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the
upper floor of a house, No. 19, Lambeth-street, White-
coapel, which, with the adjacent houses, Nos. 18 and 20,
had been condemned by the district surveyor and was being
pulled down, fell with a tremendous crash, and crushed to
death two boys, Edward Ayres and John Murphy, of the
respective ages of nine and ten years. Several o her persons
who were close upon the spot narrowly escaped without loss
of life.

TIM QUEEN'S VISIT TO THE ClTY.—Great pre-
parations are being made by the tradespeople to illuminate
the line of route her Majesty is expected to take on the forth-
coming interesting state visit to the City. According to the
present arrangement (says the Observer) the royal cortege
will not reach the Guildhall till ten o'clock in the evening.
THE ONDNANCE SURVEY.—According to a Par-
liamentary paper' issued on Friday, there, Was in "...the
last five years, 192,870/. foistlia.survey'of England; 65,0001.
for Scotland, and 50,2001. for Ireland. There is a Bill in the
House of Commons to continue the Ordnance survey for four
years longer.
