Various reports were current Wednesday after-
noon on the subject of the Balk Charter, but it would be
useless to bestow any notice on them so near the tinge
when the whole stare of the case must he correctly known
to the public. We are led to believe, in a quarter likely
to be wed informed, that the latest modifications which
the terms have undergone have not been altogether pala-
table to the Bank Directors. It is evident to any one who
has watched appearances in the city, that sine, the sub-
j et was first brought before the public many changes have
taken place in the arrangements meant fin illy to he pro-
pos,d. In the present state of it, great care is taken to
prevent any portion of the terms from transpiring.—
Morning Paper.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said, that he objected on th-
ground that the jury had found a verdict not only con-
trary to the facts, but totally at variance with the law of
the case. They had found a verdict of Justifiable Ho-
micide, while, upon the very face of the inquisition itself,
signed with their own hands, it was evident that the ver-
dict ought to have been Murder or Manslaughter.
The CHIEF JUSTICE—A difficulty that presses upon the
Court is upon whom the rule ought to be served. It might
be served upon the Coroner, certainly not upon the Jury.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL—Certainly upon the Coroner.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—What is the object of you:
motion, Mr. Solicitor?
The SOLICITOR• GENERAL—That the Inquisition taken
upon the body of the policeman, which was contrary to
law, al,ould be entirely quashed ; the jury, from the best
of motives, had come to a wrong conclusion, one unsup-
ported by any thing which they had stated upon the face
of their inquisition, and his motion was for the purpose
of quashing it, in order that it might not remain as a re-
cord in any of his Majesty's Courts.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE inquired what object the
Crown could have in view by the motion ?

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the Coroner's Inquisi-
tion was evidence for various purposes, and he believed
it was the prerogative of the Crown to call upon that
Court to exercise its undoubted jurisdiction to set aside
any thing i❑ an inferior Court that was contrary to law.
There were many cases where such proceedings had been
quashed, and he apprehended that there was cause enough
in the case to show that that Court ought to be called
upon to exercise its supreme authority.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE had never known any ap-
plication of that kind, except on the part of some indi-
vidual.

The Souctrott- GENERAL said that the inquisition might
be given in evidence at the trial of any persons against
whom the Crown might proceed ; but he apprehended
th it, even putting that aside, if an inquisition was bad,
either in point of fact or law, it was the duty of the Crown,
as the guardian of public justice, to bring it forward for
the consideration of that Court. The Learned Solicitor-
General then read the inquisition and verdict, which are
already before the public, and said there could be no doubt
that the facts were as there stated, that Cully, while in the
execution of his duty—while acting as a constable in the
disci arge of his duty—was by some person, unknown to
the Jury, nabbed in the left side of his breast, which
cawed his death, thereby constituting either a man-
slaughter or a murder.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE—It does riot appear upon the
inquisition that it was either a murder, or in fact any
felony at all.
The SOLICITOR- GENERA L—NO ; it simply stated the
facts he had given, that the man was acting as a con-
stable, and in the discharge of his duty, when he received
the wound which caused his death. The jury then went
on to state why it was they found the verdict of justifiable
homicide. It was not because the man who was stabbed
had Liven any provocation in the first instance, but because
the Riot Act had not been read, and that the Government
had not taken any steps to prevent the meeting, and that.
the police had acted with brutality. These were the facts
upon w ich they sated they bad found their verdict.
The CHIEF J usncE—There is not a word in the verdict
about the man Cully, or how he came by his death.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL said there was not a word
to show how he came by Isis death, but, on the contrary,
the jury gave their reasons for coming to such a con-
clusion.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—They in effect say that
one man might be killed, because another had acted im-
properly : there is not a single word on the face of the
inquisition to show that Cody had in any way given pro-
vocation for the assault upon him.
The SOLICITOR GENERAL said, that he only applied
for a rule to show cause, in the first instance, why the
inquisition should not be quashed.
Mr. Justice J. PARKE observed, that upon the pre.
mises set forth en the inquisition, a verdict of Excusable
Homicide could not even he maintained.
Mr. Justice PATTESON said there was a case in
Strange, where an inquest was quashed, and it did not ap-
pear that on that occasion any rule to show cause had been
applied for. It was made absolute in the first instance.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—No ; there never is. It
can never he, for where the Crown applies, as in this case,
there is no other party concerned. 1 was not here yester•
day when the certiorari was move ', and I think there
would be some difficulty in the ease without some one was
before us ; bur, as on the fire of the i qiiisition, there is no
finding, and, acting upon general.principle, considering the
Crown to have an interest in the general dispensation of
justice, I am of opinion that the inquest is not valid, and
ought to be set aside.

Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE considered there wis no vali-
dity what.-ver in the inquisition. On the fare of it, it
was stated that a person unknown to the Jury wounded
the man, of which wound he died, and yet the Jury hid
found a verdict of ju-tifi.ble Iranicide, because Govern-
ment had taken no care to prevent the meeting. That
did not justify the verd,ct. Ti mak.. it a good finding it
must be shown that Colly had first offered provocation.
The inquisition, in his opinion, was altogether a nullity,
and must be set aside.

Mr. Justice J. PARKE was of opinion that the inqui-
sition was bid, because the Jury had found Justifia'de
Homicide upon premises which would nor, as it appeared
to him, justify a verdict of even Excusable Homicide.
Mr. Justice PATTESON was entirely of the same opi
nion ; nothing was shown by the inquisition to justify such
a verdict as had been found. There was nothing to show
that Cully had been guilty of any provocation whatever.
The inquest was then ordered to be quashed.

FRENCH PAPERS.

SITTING OF MAY 28,

M. Etienne took the chair at a quarter past 1. When
the proces verbal bad been read and adopted, the Presi-
dent read a letter from M. Louis Maize, Deputy for St.
Malt), reminding the Chamber that at the tune of the
tti.:l of the Tribune be had written a letter resigning his
veat tor family reasons, but that by some error his letti-r
had not been read to the Chamber. Ile therefore renewed
his resignation.
Tile sitting was then suspended until a quarter before 2,
when the discussion of the bill tar regulating the sinking
fund was resumed.

Article 4, as proposed by the committee, and acceded to
by Government, is in the •allowing terms :—" The portion
of the sinking fund =,:ppr,priatvd to stocks, the price of
which is above pa:, shall be placed in reserve. For this
purpose the portion as well of the dotation as of the re-
deemed renfes applicable to the redemption of such stocks
so above par and p iyatile daily by the Treasury, shall he
paid to the committee for the management of the sinking
fund in an Exchequer bill, bearing 3 per cent. interest."
M. de Mosbonrg proposed, as an amendment, that such
portions of the sinking fund should be paid daily in aid of
the general expenses of the state. The Hon. Deputy, in
support of this amendment, repeated the arguments before
advanced of the necessity of providing for the expenses of
the state, the evils of the encouragement given by ti•e
sinking fund to stock•jobbing, &c.
After a few words from the Minister of Finance on the
impoi ranee of the integral preservation of the sinking fund,
the amendment was rej,cred by a very large majority, and
the artic:e adopted.
Article 5, providing that, as soon as such stocks cease
to he above par, the Exchequer bills, with the arrears of
interest on them, shad be pail day toy day in the order in
which they were issued, and the pi educe applied in re-
deeming the stocks in the ordinary way, was adopted with-
out opposition; as was also article 6, declaring that the
reserve belonging to the sinking fund shall only be applied
for the r. demption or paying off of the consolidated debt,
and that it can only be applied in paying off the debt by
virtue of a special law.
The 7th article contains an exception to the last. The
first paragraph is in the following terms :—" In the event,
however, of a negotiation of a loan by the State, the Ex-
chequer bills forming the reserve belonging to the sinking
fund shall be converted into a portion of the new s ticks
required to be created for the purposes of such loan."
This paragraph was adopted, after the almost unanimous

rejection of an amendment proposed by M. Jacques Le-
febre, for the purpose of limiting this provision to cases in
which such loan was negotiated at a price equal or superior
to that of the stocks to which the reserve belongs. The
second paragraph of the same article, declaring that such
new stocks shall be united to the portion of the sinking
fund appropriated to the stock to which the reserve be•
longed, and shall be transferred to the committee of the
sinking fund on the same terms as the loan is contracted,
and he inscribed in the Great Book of State in the same
manner as other funds, was also adopted.
An additional article proposed by M. Bastide d'lzard,
for the purpose of declaring that in future no loan shall be
binding on the state for a greater sum than the real capital
actually rec. ived, and that the intere.t shall only be
reckoned from the days of the actual payment of each
portion of such capital, was rejected without any one even
taking the trouble to speak in opposition to it. The
Chamber then proceeded to ballot on the ensemble of the
hill : the following was the result of the scrutiny :
For the Bill 179
Against it B2
Majority —97

A desultory conversation took place between M. Sher-
hette, the Minister of Commerce, and General Demarcay.
respecting the plans, estimates, &c., produced to the com-
mittee on the bill for the completion of the public works
in progress.

M. Sherbette contended that they cught to be left at
the Que•ture for the inspection of the Deputies ; but the
Minister said, that as but one copy exiteed, which was
waived at the Administration of Public Works, and as it
had already-been laid before the committee, deputies who
wished to consult must come to the office of Public Works.

The Chamber passed to the order of the day on the
observation of M. Sherbette, and proceeded to the discus-
sion of the budget of the Department of the Interior. No
one demanding to be heard on the general discussion, the
President put the first chapter to the vote. It was adopted,
and the discussion was proceeding on the others when we
left.

The Augsburg Gazette, of the 23d instant, contains
the following intelligence of the 13th from Belgrade:—
" The affairs of Bosnia have taken a serious tur❑ since
the spring has rendered communications more easy. The
insurgents; who had been for some time masters of the
flat country, have also made some successful attacks
against the fortified places; and the numher of men who
have joined their standard is so considerable, that it is
expected ail Bosnia will soon be subject to them. It is
believed that, in this case, they will not confine them
selves to the defensive, but will invade Albania, that is
fully divosed to revolt. The Porte will not be strong
enough to subdue this insurrection. What parr, then,
be taken by the great powers who express so much
interest in saving the existence of the Ottoman empire ?
Will not Austria take upon herself to act the same part
against the Bosnians and Albanians, as Russia is acting
against li,rahim ?"
