A NEW AND IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN THE SCIENCE
London, England, 1856-11-05

EXCHEQUER CHAMBER.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Baron Martin and a
Common Jury.)
HAMLIN V. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.

The plaintiff, who is a tailor, sought to recover from
the defendants the sum of 501. damages for an alleged
breach of contract on the pal t of the defendants.
It appeared from the evidence that on the 25th of
October, 1355, the defendant took a second class ticket
at the King's-cross Station of the Great Northern Rail-
way for the train which left at two o'clock, and which
was advertised in the time-bills to arrive at Hull at half-
past nine o'clock. Plaintiff proceeded on his journey, and
on arriving at Great Grimsby he found that there
was no train to convey him further, the East Lancashire
Company, whose line joined there, having started their
train one hour before the arrival of the London train.
The plaintiff was anxious 'to proceed that night, but
was prevented, and he went to the Yarborough hotel, at
Grimsby, where he regaled himself with two glasses of
gin and water, and retired to bed. In the morning he
thought to pursue his journey without extra charge, but
the company refused him, and he had to pay is. 4d.
more. On arriving at Drifliold he found his arrange-
ment thrown out, and he lost a whole week in looking
after his customers. He calculated his expenses at
two guineas a day.
Baron Martin—l suppose you could have got to Hull
on the same night if you had a mind to do so.
Plaintiff—Certainly not, unless I had swam across the
Humber. (Laughter.) Application was made to the
company for compensation, but they declined giving him
any.
Mr. Wilde, for the plaintiff, rose to address the jury
on the damages, but he wag stopped by the learned
Baron, who ruled he had no right to address the jury on
that subject. _ _

Mr. Mellor, for the defendant, then proceeded to ad-
dress the jury, but he was stopped by
Mr. Baron Martin, who ruled that in cases like the pre-
sent railway companies were not liable for anything be-
yond ordinary consequences. When the plaintiff found
himself left at Grimsby he should have complained to the
railway company, and have informed them that he would
suffer great loss if he did not proceed ; or he should have
engaged a conveyance and have charged the company
with it, in which case they wou'd have been liable for
the expenses. The company undertook to convey him
to Hull, and bad nothing to do with what he had lost at
Scarborough, York, and other places. He lost is. 4d.,
his expenses at Hull, and he was entitled to a shilling
nominal damages. The company were not responsible
for his expenses at the Yarborough Hotel, at Grimsby,
for he would no doubt have spent the same amount at
Hull, namely, is 6LI for his bed, and is for his brandy
and water,

Mr. Mellor said that perhaps the plaintiff might not
have taken the gin and water at Hull, and he should no'

CONPISSSION OP A FILLIBUSTER.

---
(From El Niectraguense, Sept. 20.)
At 5 o'clock on the evening of Friday, the 19th inst.,
Second. Lieutenant Jennings Estelle suffered the extreme
penalty of the law by being shot on the Plaza for the
murder of Second-Lieutenant Charles Gordon, in the
guardhouse, in the city of Granada, while acting as ofli•
cer of the guard.
Eptelle had been previously arrested for shooting Thos.
Edwards, and was, when he committed the unfortunate
act for which he suffered death, a prisoner confined to
his quartna. He had a fair and 4mpartial trial, and the
gentlemen who sat in judgment upon him gave him every
opportunity to establish a defence, and in this he utterly
failed. The deed was committed with Out any provoca-
tion or without any aggravating circumstance. He was
sentenced to be hung, but the Commander-in Cbiefcaused
it to be so far mitigated as to allow him to be shot.
There was a large concourse (gathered to witness the
execution. Estelle walked with a firm step by the side
of a rev. father of the church, who prayed with him and
for him from the guardhouse to the place of execution.
When he arrived at the spot where he was to breathe

Price Is. I%d. and 2s. 9d. per box.
This preparation is one of the benefits which the science of modern
chemistry has conferred upon mankind ; for during the first twenty
years of the present century to speak of a cure for the Gout was con-
sidered a romance ; but now the efficacy and safety of this medicine
is so fully demonstrated by unsolicited testimonials from persons in
every rank of life that public opinion proclaims this as one of the
most important discoveries of the present age.

NIB PARIS CONFERENCE;

Sonie of the Naples correspondents of the Franch
and north German papers, says a letter in the
Times, have recently affirmed that the Austrian
Government has counselled King Ferdinand 11. to
submit his case to the Paris Congress, but positive
information has to-day (Oct. 31) been acquired,
that there is no truth in the statement. When first
it was the question of the Paris Conferences, the
Emperor Francis Joseph was greatly averse to the
idea, and there is good reason for believing that he
is still more averse to their renewal.

As to our Indian Railways everything is re-
versed. Thov will no doubt have their military
use, like ours at home, and an important one.
But, like our English railways, also, the first con-
sideration is the commercial benefit of the coun-
try. Russia is unpeopled—lndia teeming with
population ; Russia has few large towns—ln: is
many. Russia has no produce. India only wants
means of communication with the interior to sup-
ply all Europe with cotton, sugar, indigo, rice,
tea, hemp, wheat, with almost everything grown
in warm and temperate climates; even iron, as we
have recently shown, may be had abundantly.
The passenger traffic itself would pay in most
districts, and in nearly all railways and irriga-
tion would develope such wealth as would surpass
all the things fabled of Golconda.

At one time there is a fierce demand that cannot
be supplied, and ere long it becomes " a drug
in the market." At one moment the prudent and
honest trader cannot obtain the facilities indis-
pensable to the proper management of his busi-
ness ; subsequently the wildest and most reckless
speculations are encouraged. The mercury in the
financial barometer changes rapidly, and the in-
terests that ought to be encouraged suffer under
every change. As we have already repeatedly
urged there should be a speedy Parliamentary
inquiry. But something should be done at once
to arrest the evil. Parliament should be called
together before Christmas for the purpose, of
authoilsing temporary measures, which Ministers
may shrink from adopting without a sufficient
indemnity in the first instance. Let England
for once secure the door before the valuable steed
has been abstracted.

GOVERNMENT PROVISION CONTRACT.

The Cork Reporter states that, as there appears
to be no prospect this year of any Government
contract for beef and pork, almost all the horned
cattle and pigs purchased at the recent Irish fairs
are for export to England. Prices rule very high,
and are, in fact, nearly up to the favourite war
standard. Beef averages about 545. per ewt. in the
Cork markets.

NEW QUEEN'S COUNSEL.

The long array of Queen's Counsel is, it is said,
to be reinforced by three additional calls to the
inner bar. The names of the gentlemen are Mr.
Alexander Norman, Mr. John Edward Walsh, and
Mr. James Lamson, the first of the North-West
and the others of the Leinster Circuit. All are,
strange to say, quite unknown as politicians, but
it is surmised—and no more—that their sympathies
lean towards Conservatism.

detained in prison, where he had been unjustly kept
before for 12 years, wllen the Lord Chancellor at length
interposed, and set him at liberty.

ment, " put their heads together,"
Lord Campbell said—Well, Mrs. Cobbett, your ap-

Mrs. Cobbett signified her acknowledgments in a
gentle inclination of her tall and stately figure, and re-

CORN EXCHANGE.

Only a moderate supply of English wheat, chiefly the
refuse of Monday, was on sale in to-day's market; never-
theless, we experienced a very slew inquiry for all kinds,
at that day's currency. The general conditions of the sam-
ples was inferior. The imports of foreign wheat this
week are only 4,260 quarters. Even the finest samples
were dull, yet importers refused to accept lower terms.
There was only a limited sale for barley, on former
terms.
The malt trade ruled heavy, at barely late rates.
We had a slow inquiry for oats, at the late decline in
value. _ _ _

Beans, peas, and flour were steady, but not dearer.

PRICE OF GOLD.—TLe quotation of gold a'. Paris is
about 6 per mine premium, and the short exchange on
London is 25.271 per 1/. ster!lng,. On comparing these
rates with the English Mir.t price of 31. 17s. led. per
ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
nearly 2 10tbs per cent. dearer in Paris than in Lon-
don.
:By advises from Hamburg the price of gold is 424
per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13'3 per
1/. sterling. Standard gold, at the English Mint price,
is therefore nearly 7-10ths per cent. dearer in Hamburg
than in London. The course of exchange at New York
on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1091 per cent.,
which, when compared with the Mint par between the
two countries, shows that the exchange is slightly in
favour of England ; and, after making allowance for
charges of transport and diffi.renee of interest, the pre.
sent rate leaves a small profit on the importation of
gold from the United States.

DUBLIN, TUIS4DAY MORNING.
THE TIPPERARY BANK.
A formiable list of motions in reference to the
Tipperary swindle was set in the paper for hearing
yesterday, being the commencement of Hilary
Term. Two cases come before the Chancellor,
neither of which at this stage possessed any feature
of interest. The first was an application for an
order for liberty to file additional affidavits in a
case iu which Mr. Hone, one of the largest share-
holders, was a party, notwithstanding that the
regular time had elapsed. The Chancellor made
the order applied for. The second motion was in
the more important matter of " O'Flaherty v.
W.Dowell, official manager," which stood No. 37
in the list for the present term ; and counsel moved
that it might be advanced out of its order, And
fixed for Monday or Tuesday week under the
peculiar circumstances. It was alleged that there
was a vast number of actions pending, in some of
which judgment was obtained, and in others scire
facial entered, that would be put an end to if the
question in the petition matter were decided. If
the pending law proceedings were successful in-
justice would be done, and particular creditors
would be enabled to appropriate the assets, to the
injury of the body of the creditors ; whereas a
decision in the pret'ent suit would put a stop
to such an injusti:e, as it would lead to the attach-
ing of the
look to. 44;rie persons and not the properties of the
Pr'Jperty, and leave the suitors at law to
Pal:4,les they sued. The question raised was a most
Important one, and involved the consideration of
the case decided by the late Sir M. O'Loghlen, in
the " Agricultural Bank" case. If the Court was
of opinion that the decision referred to was good in
law, it would, in fact, put an end
i to all proceed-
ings. After considerable discussion t wag arranged,
with the consent of all parties, that the case should
be placed at the top of the list for the present term,
and be heard immediately after the cases standing
over from last term. The decision in this 'natter,
whatever judgment the Court may arrive at, will
probably be the turning point as regards the final
settlement of the issue between the creditors and
the shareholders.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.

(Sittings in Banco before Mr. Justices Creswell, Crow-

SWINIURNE Y. SWINBURNE.
This was an issue from the Court of Chancery rela-
tive to larded property to the amount of 30,0001.,
originally tried at Stafford. It was then arranged be-
tween the Attorney General, who appeared for the plain-
tiff, Captain Swinburne, the heir at law, and Sir F.
Tbesiger, who appeared for Mrs. Swinburne, the defend-
ant, who was in possession, that she should give up tne
estates to Captain Swinburne on his granting her an
annuity of 1,1001. per annum. The arrangement so come
to between the parties was made a rule of Court, but
the defendant afterwards refused to comply with it. Last
term an application was made for an attachment to issue,
but it was refused, on the ground that notice had not
been properly served.

The Attorney-General to-day renewed his application
for the issue of the attachment. The attorney for the
plaintiff had prepared the necessary documents for car-
rying out the arrangements, but the defendant refused
to execute them. The plaintiff after tbat called on the
defendant to endeavour to persuade her to execute the
deeds, but she peremptorily refused to do so. She set
at defiance the orders of the Court, and at the interview
with the heir-at-law and his friends, she, by way of inti-
midation but not to do injury, discharged a loaded pistol
in their presence.
The Court granted the application.

contemporaries have entered heartily into the scheme, and
have received sums for his behoof. Subscription sheets have
been issued for the same purpose, and a committee, with

Common Jury.)
HAMLIN Y. THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.
The plaintiff, who is a tailor, sought to recover from
the defendants the sum of 501. damages for an alleged
breach of contract on the pat t of the defendants.
It appeared from the evidence that on the 25th of
October, 1855, the defendant took a second class ticket
at the King's-cross Station of the Great Northern Rail-
way for the train which left at two o'clock, and which
was advertised in the time-bills to arrive at Hull at half-
past nine o'clock. Plaintiff proceeded on his journey, and
on arriving at Great Grimsby be found that there
was no train to convey him further, the East Lancashire

The plaintiff was anxious to proceed that night, but
was prevented, and he went to the Yarborough hotel, at
Grimsby, where he regaled himself with two glasses of
gin and water, and retired to bed. In the morning be

after his customers. He calculated his expenses at
two guineas a day.

Baron Martin—l suppose you could have got to Hull
on the same night if y..,u had a mind to do so.
Plaintiff—Certainly not, unless I had swam across the
Humber. (Laughter.) Application was made to the
company for compensation, but they declined giving him
any.

Mr. Wilde, for the plaintiff, rose to address the jury
on the damages, but he was stopped by the learned
Baron, who ruled he had nu right to address the jury on
that subject.

Mr. Mellor, for the defendant, then prooeeded to ad•

Police-constable 85 C stated that thii morning, about

seeing that they were very drunk, procured the assis-
tance of another constable, and conveyed them to the
station.

The defendants, who did not deny the charge, were
fined 103. eacli.

Maclaine Colbert and Eliza Deville, two notorious
French prostitutes, were charged with being drunk and
annoying gentlemen at three o'clock this morning in
Regen t•streot.

The charge having been proved, Mr. Beadon observed
that such women as the prisoners were becoming a most
intolerable nuisance ; and as far as he was concerned he
was determined to put it down. He then severely cau-
tioned them as to their future proceedings, and fined
Colbert 20s. and Deville 10s., both of which MIMI were

SOUTHWARK.

ASSAULTING Tim PoLlCM—Danicl Macaraty, a tall,
powerful looking IriAman, was brought btforo Mr.
Burnham, charged with committing an assault upon Wm.
Bond, police-constable 179 M, in the execution of his
duty.

The complainant stated that he was on duty in Union-
street shortly before one o'clock that morning, when he
saw the prisoner and several others standing at the cor-
ner of Parson's-court. The prisoner was extremely
violent in his behaviour, and as a respectable female
attempted to pass he pushed her into the road. 'Witness
went up to him and told him to go home, and not annoy
the public any more, when he suddenly rushed upon him
and knocked him down. Witness seized hold of him to
secure him, when he kicked him violently, and would
have severely injured him bad not another constable
came to his assistance. The prisoner's sister attempted
to rescue him, and called out for a poker.

Police constable in M. said he was attracted to the
spot by hearing the cries of police, and when he art ived
there he saw last witness on the ground, and the prisoner
kicking him. Witness caught hold of the prisoner,
when his sister came up and attempted to pull him away.
They had a severe struggle, during which the female
called out for a poker, and had not other assistance come
up the consequences might have been very serious.
In answer to the charge the prisoner said he was under
the influence of liquor at the time, and was shamefully
illused by the police, who struck him about the head
and arms with their truncheons.

The constables denied using their truncheons. The
bruises on the prisoner's head and arms were caused by
his plunging about.

Mr. Burnham told him that the police must be pro-
tected from the brutal violence of such men while in the
execution of their duty. He hal violently assaulted one
of them, for :which offence he should commit him to the
House of Correction at Wandsworth, with hard labour.
The sister was then charged with attempting to res.
cue him, and fied 403. or ono month's imprisonment.

A FATAL DUEL IN PRUSSIA.,

A letter from Aix-la-Chapelle describes a fatal
duel which took place near Manheim on the 28th
ult., between Monsieur D—, a French jour-
nalist, and a Prussian officer named B—. 13
consequence of some observations of an offensive
nature made by B—, in speaking of the Fret:oll
Government, D—reqnested him to retract the?,
language which he had employed. Matters Would
• corY
probably have been arranged in a satisfat
manner, had not D— become impatient at t.b(1.1
hesitation of the Prussian officer, and permitteas•
himself to call the latter a coward. A duel
instantly decided on, and, as it was already bag
past

The latter in his turn aimed at his adversary, wll°'

MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
Only a moderate supply of English wheat, chiefly the
refuse of Monday, was on sale in to-day's market ; never-
theless, we experienced a very slow inquiry for all kinds,
at that day's currency. The general conditions of the sam-
ples was inferior. The imports of foreign wheat this
week are only 4,260 quarters. Even the finest samples
were dull, yet importers refused to accept lower terms.
There was only a limited sale for barley, on former
terms.
The malt trade ruled heavy, at barely late rates.
We had a slow inquiry for oats, at the late decline in
value.
Banns, peas, and flour were steady, but not dearer.

A letter dated Rome, Oct. 30, says:—lt is
stated here, and with some probability, that the
representatives of Austria, 'Tuscany, and Naples,
have recently made urgent request to the Pope to
interpose in favour of King Ferdinand, by sending
an autograph letter to the Emperor Napoleon ini-

of the 31st ult, has a letter
from Athens, which says that the official journal
of that capital had declared that King Otho was
"neither physically nor morally in such a state of
health as to render his presence at Athens neces-
sary !" This extraordinary language of the official
journal, says the letter, caused a scene of great
violence in the Senate. Senator Provelegis, who
is personally devoted to the King, tore up in the
presence of the assembled Senate the number of
the paper containing the lines quoted, and re-
proached the Ministry for permitting such unbe-
coming language to be used.
