WIESBA DEN.

This line, from the Taunus Junction to Rudesheim,
passing through Mosbach, Scheirstein, Walluf, Elt-
♦ille, Hattenbeim, Oestricb, Winkel, and Geisenheim,
is now open to the public. Trains run four a•day in
each direction, and it is stated that the traffic requires
an increase of the rolling stock. The completion of this
lino has given great satisfaction to the inhabitants in the
district through which it passes. It appears that the
Chambers of Nassau passed on Saturday, the 16th inst.,
a law approving the Ducal preliminary decree by which
a subsidy of 1,000,000 f. sterling (12,000,000 florins), in
Government bonds, is granted for the continuation of
tLe Wiesbaden Railway towards Cologne.

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, TUESDAY MORNING.
Til CONSERVATIVE OPPOSITION.
The Evening Mail, the old organ of Irish inde-
pendent Conservatism, alluding to. the rumoured
retirement of Mr. Disraeli from the post of Oppo-
sition leader, plainly intimates that the step thus
said to be taken would be received with approba-
tion at this side of the Channel.
"To us (says the Mail) it is not more clear that Mr.
Disraeli is not and never was Pitt, than that the
points he and his oAleagnes contended for or against,
during the last three years, never did and never could
be organised into a line of policy. Paltering with
the war question, paltering with the Irish land question,
paltering with the L,rds' jurisdiction, paltering with
national education, paltering with foreign policy—all in
a double sense—has been manifestly the idea upon which
the Derby• Disraeli Government and Opposition were
formed. It is not wonderful that neither one nor the
other grew from such a conception to be a fact. If Lord
Derby and Mr. Disraeli had boldly declared antagonism
to the Aberdeen Ministry, and accordance with the popu•
lar views respecting the war, they, and not Lord Pal-
merston, would have commanded the situation."

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, Feb. 7.—The incubus which weighs on
the minds of Austrian politicians is the Russo-
French alliance, which they see looming in the dis-
tance, but the Emperor Napoleon, who must bo
well-informed of what is passing in the world,
cannot think of making Russia his mainstay, the
prop of his dynasty. The Russian Court looks
on the present ruler of the French as neither more
nor less than a fortunate adventurer, and Louis
Napoleon cannot be ignorant that Russian Grand
Dukes received positive orders from their late
father on all occasions to treat the Count do Cham-
bord as the King of the French, and that they
never failed to give him the title of Majesty, and
to insist on his taking the place of honour.

Count Buol leaves-for Paris on Wednesday, the
13th, and little business of importance is likely to
be transacted during his absence, as Baron Werner,
the Under Secretary of State in the Foreign De-
partment, has a remarkable disinclination to take
any responsibility on his own shoulders. It is re-
lated that Count Collorcdo, the Austrian Minister
at the Court of St. James's, will meet Count Buol
in Paris. It is rumoured in the city that Baron
Prokesch will go from Constantinople to the French
capital, but the report is certainly unfounded. To-
day Cuunt Rechberg will move in the Bund that
that body do formally accede to the propositions of
peace, but it is foreseen that Austria will again be
defeated by Prussia and the second-rate Gorman
States.

LAW INTELLIGENCE--(This Day.)

EXCHEQUER COURT.

:Sittings at Guildhall before Lord Chief Baron Pollock
and a Continon Jury.)
OWEN V. EDLIN.

This was an action for money lent. The defendant
pleaded first, that he Wai never indebted ; and, secondly,
that he had paid the money.
It appeared from the evidence of the plaintiff that he
is a brass manufacturer, carrying on business in High-
street, Shadwell, and the defendant a butcher, of the
same place. In June, 1851, the defendant applied to
the plaintiff to '.sorrow 601. of him, with which to pur-
chase two live bullocks. Plaintiff advanced the
money on defendant's giving him a memorandum
and an orkrdue acceptance, and an 1.0. U. of
a person named Smith, as collateral security.
Smith and Edlin ware friends, arid from an introduction
by Edlin of Smith to the plaintiff 'they became ac-
quainted. The plaintiff purchased the lease of the Ship
and Star, Shad well, for 1501., and to pay 461. per annum
rent. Smith, who was a coal whipper, agreed to take
the house and give 601. per annum rent. An arrange-
ment was then entered into between them relative to the
purchase of the fixtures, out of which the defendant con-
tended this debt arose, and that Smith was the person
liable for the payment of this money. Smith subse-
quently became a bankrupt, and • was ultimately found
in Exeter gaol. The case occupied the court some time
in investigating the accounts between the parties, and
had not concluded when our despatch left.

POOR RELIEF (SCOTLAND).

Mr. R. ELLICE moved fora return in reference to
the record of application,* to the board of supervision
for relief of the poor in Scotland, stating in each case
the amount of relief. whether in money, food, clothing,
or any other shape (but if not in money, then giving the
money value of such other description of relief), which
formed the subject of complaint ; the decision of the
board ag to such allowance beißg insufficient or the con-
trary, and in cases where the ground of complaint was
removed, stating the additional amount and kind of re-
lief that %gal, granted, from the I.st day of July, 1854, .to
the ..10

ITALY.

The Opinione of Turin, of the Bth inst., publishes
the following report of the sitting in which the
Senate voted the loan of 30,000,000 :
" The President, the Marquis Alfieri, having taken
the chair, the discussion immediately commenced. All
the Ministers, namely, Messrs Cavour, Lanza, Durando
•Deforesta, and Cibrario, attended.
" M. Pinelli rose and said—' Even if peace were con-
cluded, we should hold ourselves prepared for every
contingency, for we may not be then at the end of our
difficulties. Piedmont —thanks to the treaty of alliance
and the honourable sacrifices she has made—has con-
solidated her political and moral existence. The bra-
very and skill of our generals and soldiers shall not
prove sterile for us, and we have reason to glory in
the popular acclamations which saluted the ancient and,
renowned banner of Savoy in the two greatest capitals of
Europe. (Hear.) As for Italian sympathies who can
doubt them, after the demonstrations in our favour on
every point of the peninsula, and the donations for our
brave soldiers in the Crimea forwarded from all parts of
Italy. In future, Piedmont will be better able to repel
attacks against her independence and liberty, and to
brave any danger that may menace her on the part of a
Power which, although a stranger to Italy, nevertheless
exercises a very great influence over her domestic affairs.
Whatever importance Austria may have acquired by her
last act, she cannot be placed on an equal footing with
Piedmont, one of the belligerent parties. England and
France will certainly check all further extension of the
influence of Austria in Italy, and insure the independ-
ence and futurity of Piedmont. I vote in favour of the

" None of the Senators having asked to speak for or
against the bill, its three articles were put from the
chair and adopted, and the entire bill was afterwards
voted by a majority of 50 to 7."
. _

In its sitting of the 6th, the Chamber of Deputies
adopted the different chapters of the budget of re-
ceipts for 1856, together with the first four articles
of the project of law relative thereto. The discus-
sion on the fifth and last article was suspended.
The Ministry calculated that the receipts would
amount to 155,745,608 livres, including the
25,000,000 of the loan contracted in England. The
General Committee, with the approbation of the
Government, fixed the expenses at 157,500,838
livres, reducing the proposed increase on the stamp
duty from 1,2J0,000 to 200,000 livres, and aug-
menting the registry duties by 400,000 livres,
the duty on emoluments by 200,000 livres, and
that on succession by 400,000 livres.
Mehemed Djamil Bey, Minister Plenipotentiary
of the Sublime Port at the Courts of France and
Sardinia, arrived at Turin on the sth, and presented
his credentials to the King.
General Alphonse della Marmora returned to

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

The last morning performance of the extraordinarily-
successful pantomime of " Hey Diddle Diddle" is fixed
for to-morrow (Tuesday), on which occasion the lessee
has, with his usual liberality, invited the veterans of the
army who have returned from the Crimea to witness the
performance—the medal, so nobly won, exhibited on the
breast, will be the only passport required for admission.
We anticipate on this occasion a highly-interesting audi-
ence, for no doubt the generous offer of Mr. Smith will
be largely accepted; and so for those who have delayed
their visit to Old Drury till the present time a sight is in
store that will be long and lastingly remembered.

London on Friday next, at Exeter Hall.
Madame Goldschmidt takes part in two performances
at Birmingham, under the auspices of the Musical Fes-
tival Committee, on Wednesday and Thursday, the 21st
and 221 instant. On the first evening the Creation. is
to be performed ; on the second, a miscellaneous con-
cert. M. Benedict is to conduct, and the entire arrange-
ments assimilate in character to those of the triennial
festival. The band will consist of about 70 performers,
and the choruses sustained by 220 voices. The ballot
takes place on Wednesday next.
On Thursday evening Madame Goldschmidt appeared
in a miscellaneous concert in St. Andrew's-hall, Nor-
wich, before an audience of 2,200 persons. The receipts
at her two performances in Norwich last week wire
2,400/.
The concert given by Madame Goldschmidt at Bris-
tol on Friday night appears to have been a most suc-
cessful one. The audience in the room (says the Bristol
Mercury) numbered over 1,300, and the receipts ex-
ceeded 9001. Upo❑ proceeding from the Queen's Hotel
to the concert, the wheel-chair in which Madame Gold-
schmidt rode was guarded by police. The presence of
the officers, however, did not deter the crowd from
pressing round it in the hope of getting a sight of the
feir eantatrice. Madame Goldschmidt did not exactly
relish this eager curiosity, and at the close of the
concert she sent the chair back empty, and con-
trived to get into a hackney fly which had been privided
for her at the side-door, and in which she returned to
her hotel.

(Sittings at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Justice Jervis
and a Common Jury.)
DALEY V. SIMS AND OTHERS.

This was an action brought to recover 2021. 183. The
plaintiff is a merchant of Cork, and the defendants factors
and brokers in London.

It appeared from the evidence of the plaintiff that in
January, 1853, he accepted two bills drawn by the de-
fendants for 4041. 13.5. 4d. and 4561. 16i. 7d. In
August, 1853, he suspended his payments and sent
notice to his creditors, the two bills at that time being
within a week of coining to maturity. The plaintiff
afterwards paid a composition of 134. 3d. in the pound,
111 d. being in cash and the remainder in staves. The
defendants, it appeared, held a quantity of, staves be-
longing to the plaintiff, and a question arose as to the
deposit of the staves and the defendants holding them as
factors or not, or whether there was a balance due to
the plaintiff over the above amounts of 2021. 18s.
A verdict was returned for- the plaintiff fur that
amount.

The Lord Chancellor nobly vindicated his title

more remarkable, alike for closeness of reasoning
and comprehensiveness of view than that of Lord
Cranworth. Much talent and research were no

thise, and admire."—Press.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.)

EXCHEQUER COURT.

(Sittings at Guildhall before Lord Chief Baronllock
and a Common Jury.)
OWEN V. EDLIN.

This was an action for money lent. The defendant
pleaded first, that he was never indebted ; and, secondly,
that he had paid the .money.
It appeared iron the evidence of the plaintiff that be
is a brass manufacturer, carrying en business in High-
street, Shadwell, and the defendant a butcher, of the
same place. In June, 1851, the defendant applied to
the plaintiff to !sorrow 601. of him, with which to pur-
chase two live bullocks. Plaintiff advanced the
mousy on defendant's giving him a memorandum
and an overdue acceptance, and an. 1.0. U. of
a person named Smith, as collateral security.
Smith and Ed were friends, and from an introduction
by Edlin of Smith to the plaintiff they became ac-
quainted. The plaintiff purchased the lease of the Ship
and star, Shad well, for 1501., and to pay 461. per annum
rent. Smith, who was a coal whipper, agreed to take
the house and give 601. per annum rent. An arrange-
ment was then entered into between them relative to the
purchase of the fixtures, out of which the defendant con-
tended this debt anise, and that Smith was the person
liable for the payment of this money. Smith subse-
quently became a bankrupt, and was ultimately found
in Exeter gaol. The case occupied the court some time
in investigating the accounts between the parties, and
had not concluded when our despatch left.

W. S. WOODIN'd ENTERTAINMENT.

The piestific with which Mr. Woodin's performances
were received in this country seems to increase and
gather enthusiasm, so far, at least, as the feelings of the
public aro concerned. His sketches of character are so
well known, that it is needless to enter itt ) detail.
Every one knows who has had the pleasure of witnessing
his performances (and who in London has not') that his
delineation of character is unrivalled.

The characters he met with while traversing the shores
of the beautiful and far-famed Lakes of Windermere,
are given with a zest and truthfulness which imparts
to his audience a lively idea of the originals.

Not less characteriitic are his delineations of rural
than they are of London life. For while we have, in
the country, and revelling amongt those beautiful
scenes, representations of which, in panoramic order,
Mr. Woodin passes before his audience, we have at the
same time the lights and shades of London life. With
the simplicity of the rustic we have the overbearing pre•
tensions of the London snob. Even feminine simplicity
finds a corner in Mr. Woodin's Carpet Bag. _ _

The performance on Saturday evening went off with
the greatest Mat, and the attendance was select and re-
spectable. Perhaps an addition to the attendance might
have been accounted for by the fact, as explained by
Mr. Woodin, that it was the one thousandth night of his
performance in London—rnalcing himself equal to Albert
Stni,h in that respect. The increased attendance showed
Mr. Woodin's increasing popularity, and indicates that
he will have a long run i❑ London.

children.—Agreed to.
• BURIAL GROUNDS.

Mr. H. BERKELEY asked the Secretary of State
for the Home Department why burials were allowed to
continue in metropolitan graveyards, now that ample
accommodation existed for interments at a distance from
London. Why the churchyards of Saint John, Hox-
tan ; St Mary, Haegerston ; St. Giles, Camberwell,
having been repeatedly closed by order of the Council,
have as often , been allowed to re-open, and were, to-
gether with the Blue Lion burial-ground, in Grays-inn-
lane, and -,,Trinity, Brompton, now in -fall -operation ;
and why the objectionable practioe of placing more than
one body in one grave was continued in the cemetery at
Brompton, which had been purchased by, and was under
the control of, the Government-r"

Sir G. GREY said the burial grounds referred to had
not been r,peat-Aly closed, but an extension of time had
been granted some of them till the new city of London
Cemetery was ccmp!eted. That cemetery would soon
be ready for the reception of burials, and then those
places woukl be permanently closed.

SPORTING NOTES.

LIKINGS FOR LINCOLN.

The first important legitimate events of the year will
be contested at Lincoln on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The meeting is likely to prove attractive enough, al-
though the promise of sport is not very abundant. In
framing the conditions of the Handicap Hurdle Race, the
officials have committed the great blunder of omitting
to fix any penalty for winning horses ; thus Tom Gur-
ney, Stamford, and General Evans will not have any
extra weight to carry for their recent successes. The
result of the fiat races will materially depend upon the re-
lative degrees of condition in which the competitors may
be sent to the poift. Nine horses are nominated for the
Trial Stakes ; amongst them figures the name of Fisher-
roan. Should this horse go to the post I shall expect his
owner, Mr. T. Parr, to commence the season with suc-
cess. In his absence Cardsharper may do the trick. Of
the youngsters likely to contest the Two-year-old Stakes,
I know nothing. It is much too early in the year to
judge of the capability of the " baby" horses. The Cutty
Queen, however, has been mentioned to me with favour.
Should Eulogist and Prince Plausible start for the Spring
Handicap they shall represent my interest. According
to recent running the foremost places for the Handicap
Hurdle Race ought to be filled by General Evans,
Stamford, and Tom Gurney.
A report is current that Fordbam, the celebrated
light weight, has already been specially engaged to ride
for Mr. Howard for the Chester Cup.

A sporting weekly paper has devoted nearly a column
and a half to reminiscences of the late Frank Butler.
They are told with much gossipping facility, but the
writer has allowed his fanny and imagination to run
riot. He gravely states that poor Frank was originally
intended for the Church, and that, unlike cross country
jockeys, he was for the steeple, but not to ride a race
only to get there. This ridiculous statement is, too, I
find, made also in an illustrated paper.
