.....

__-
This was a demurrer to the plaintiff's bill on the
ground that he was not entitled to file his bill in this
court.

The Master of the Rolls was of opinion that it was not
a good answer to say that the plaintiff bad his remedy
at law. The reasons why the demurrer cannot be sus
tamped are two-Ist, This is a charge against the real
estate of the company, and the plaintiff is entitled to
come into a Court of Equity for relief, 2d, In respect
that no personal representative has been appointed by
the creditors, the plaintiff is entitled to prosecute this
suit under the Winding-up Acts 1848-9, sec. 58. Cases

HORNS Y. .TENEINS.-A NOVEL LIODE OB CARRYING
ON BUSINESS.

Mr. Lewis, of Ely-place, appeared for the plaintiff.
The amount sought to be recovered was 441. for a
pair of gold-mounted spectacles, alleged to have been
supplied to defendant by plaintiff. Defendant said he
did not purchase the glasses of plaintiff, but of a man
named Sheens, who he believed was master of the shop.
It appeared that the shop had formerly been carried on
by a Mr. Ronbigell, and that plaintiff purchased
the business of Sheen, who was Mr. Ronbigell'e
foreman. It was elicited that Ronbigell
bad been dead since January, 1856 ; plaintiff still
carried on business in the name of Ronbigell, and all
letters applying for money, or upon any subject, were
signed Thomas Ronbigell.

The Anglo-Indian Almanack. Second year.
Published at the Indian News office.
The second year of this almanack witnesses a
great change in the position of Anglo-Indians.
Nevertheless, the proprietors are not discouraged,
though they admit that circumstances have been
adverse to their undertaking. They have appended
a sketch of the revolt and a rec!ister of camualties.
The usual information is given hilly and correctly,
with the various points associated with colonial
life especially enlarged upon. All Indian appoint..
ments modes of conveyance, list of directors, 8.7 c.,
together with a compendious list of retired officers
of the company's service, whether civil, military,
ecclesiastical, or medical, are given, and the chiefs
of the various departments in the different presi-
dencies. 'We trust this almanack will be able to
maintain fur itself the position which its careful
and laborious composition merits.
Algiers in 1857.

By the Rev. E. Davies, M. 11.
Longman.
A pleasant little volume, telling tia some of the
peculiarities of Algiers and its inhabitants. The
writer travelled thither in the hope of restoring the
health of a beloved invalid. Unhappily the journey
proved fruitless, yet it served to alleviate the suf-
ferings of the wife and mother, to whose memory
the work is inscribed. The author has,
_therefore, fully described the climate and the
resources of the country, with especial re-
ference to English invalids, and those who
are about to make a pilgrimage thither in search of
health, would do well to profit by hie experience.
He has also given the details of the places of re-
creation in the neighbourhood suitable f;_r ord7nary
travellers. The volume offers some pleasant pages
to those who prefer to extend their kuowledge by
their own fireside, instead of braving an African
sun ; and the numerous coloured illustrations add
greatly to the attractions of the work.

With regard to the yield of gold, the Age of
Jan. 16 says :

" For several weeks we have received no startling
intelligence from the diggings of new rushes and
extraordinary luck. In fact, the occupation of the
gold seeker is becoming every weak a less fortuit-
ous and a more arduous one. Men do not now be-
take themselves to the diggings with eager hopes
antd a fair promise of fortune ; they are driven
thither by the scarcity of employment in the towns,
and the difficulty of obtaining a livelihood, how-
ever scanty, anywhere else. The digger is giving
p!ice to the miner, whose more elaborate opera-
tiOns require the outlay of capital, and the e'er-
ciSe of such moral qualities as patience and perse-
verance in the face of danger and disappointment
—properties which were comparatively in small de-
mand in the days of surfacing and shallow sinking.
The outfit indispensable to success, in the modern
sense of the term—that is, not the sudden discovery
ofa fortune, but the steady. realisation of a fair
annual income, consists of far other implements
thpn the primitive tub and cradle—in fact, the
lottery of a digger's life is almost extinct, and whe-
ther as puddlers, quartz reefers, or deep-lead
miners, men must be prepared to invest their capi-
tal in machinery, and to devote many weeks or
months of toil to their shafts and drives before the
precious product is secured. The -fortunate diggers
of 1852 and 1853 would be surprised, were they to
rejrisit the scenes of their luck, at the vast array of
e ines and implements which have displaced the
'si pledishesand toms of those days ;and they would
b equally astounded at the value which is set upon
buildings and tailings—upon masses of cement and
ropk,!which they would have cast away as worthless,
but which are now esteemed the surest depositories
of,wealth. The auriferous earths which are avail-
able for ruder processes maybe far from exhausted,
bait they lie beyond the bounds of our present
diggings, or are found in rare and scanty patches
which have been overlooked. Even the minimum
yield per load or ton which machinery can render
reinunerative is calculated by the dwt. rather than
the oz., and considering the much greater cost of
production in plant and libour, even the same gross
yield of gold could not be regarded as indicating
the equal richness of the lands. But with all our
improvements in apparatus, with a large increase
oe population and with new fields opening about
every week, 'we find that the gross product has fallen
off.

ALI MOORAD KIIAN.

The following letter has been addressed to the
Editor of ihe Times :

" ;n for assertion, I know not why
Colonel Pottinger's should be considered of more
value than that of other persons.
'' The character of Ali Moorad Khan, Colonel
Potiinger saya, was well known before Sir Charles
Napier went to Scinde. It was so very favourably
known, as the following communication from Sir
James Outram to Sir Charles Napier, on the ar-
rival of the lat,er in that country, proves :
Outram.—' Ali Moorad is by far the best of
the Ameors. I wish you knew him. He is good-
looking, a frank open manner that you cannot help
liking. I wish you could see him, you would be
p'eased with him. At first he was quite opposed
to us, and would have made war against us if the
other Ameers kid joined him ; however, seeit g it
was of no use to oppose uQ, he joined the alliance
with us, and is the only one who has never given
us cause of complaint. I am sure you will ltlic
him.'

" W. NAPIER, Lieutenant-General.
March 9."

FIRE AT PORTSMOUTH —On Tuesday morning a fire
broke out on the premises of Mr. Payne, hairdresser,
Queen's-street, Port-mouth. The flames communicated
to the house of Mr. Ricbard Newland, a stationer and
gilder, and thence made their way to the house of Mr.
FoNter, tailor, all of which were gutted. Fortunately
the wind kept down, or more injury would have ensued.
No lives were 10,t.
"It is rumoured," says the Malta Tines, " that a
telegram has been received here from the authorities in
England to look to the state of the island defences ; and
that in pursuance of that order a military commission is
now sitting, of which the Lieut.-General commanding
and the Colonels of the Royal Engineers and Royal Ar•
Puy are members."

It is understood that Mr. Henry Fisher, wine
merchant, of this city, will shortly file his schedule.
Flis liabilities are said to exceed 120,000/. The
firm of Purkis and Lambert, auctioneers of some
standing, is reported to be involved with Fisher by
endorsements on bills for nearly half this amount,
and will not be able to work through. Another
I firm of a similar nature, but smaller, is also talked
of as being likely to suspend. Otherwise our trad-
ing circle is in a sound and healthy state.
The political world is fully occupied with the
approaching general election—a dissolution of the
Ass,.!tnbly having taken place last month in con-
sequence of the ministerial defeat on the Assess-
ment on Stock Bill, and numerous candidates for
legislative honours are busy in the field. Messrs.
Cowper, Campbell, Wilshire, and Dailey, Mr. G.
Thornton, ex-mayor, and a Mr. Fowler, parlia-
mentary reporter, are canvassing for the city. Two
members of the ministry, Mr. Jones, Colonial Tree-
surer, and. Mr. Murray, Secretary for Lands and
Works, have resigned. The first vacancy has
been filled by Mr. R. Campbell, but the Land Da-
p,rtment is still without a head.
- The. Sydney Exchange was formally opened on

The announoemeot that the Panama line is not
to be est. bushed creates great dissatisfaction, not
unmixed with just indignation. Indeeil this colony
has the strongest reason to complain of the shame-
ful way in wriich, it bas been treated in the matter
of steam postal communication.
However, we are determined to have the Panama
route ; and if no English company will undertake
it, perhaps our Transpacific cousins may be tempted
by a liberal subsidy to run a steamer monthly to
the Isthmus. With regard to the Suez line, it is
now quite clear that if the present company does not
improve in its arrangements and performances, this
c lony will cease to be a party to the contract.

TIIE EE-ELECTIONS.

SOUTH SHROPSHIRE.
VICE-CETAMBERLAIN OF THE HOUSEHOLD
The vacancy occasioned in the representation of
the soiith.-rn oivision of Sorop-hire by the accept-
ance of the office of Vice-Chamberlain of her
Majesty's Household by ViNcount Newport was
supplied yesterday by the re-election of his Lord-

Sir BALDWIN LEIGHTON proposed the re-election
of Lord Newport, who had never done anything to
forfeit the confidence the electors had previously
repoe-d in him. Referriog to the cause which led
to the downfall of the late Government, he said it
was desirab'e it sh,uld be pei fectly understood that
this country would nut submit to be bullied by any
foreigu Power, and he thought that Parliament had
acted properly in rest uting the insolent language
which had been used with respect to England by
some of the offic:Ts of the French army. With
regard to the right of asylum, he would not have

THE NAVY.

Two engineers, one of whom was engaged in
making the recent experiments on north-country
coals as a steam fuel, are about to be despatched by
the Admiralty to Cardiff, in order to test the value
of the South Wales coals, and to obtain materials
for a comparison of their merits with those of the
northern coal'-. The report of the Admiralty engi-
neers is understood to relate chiefly to the possi-
bility of consuming the smoke of the bituminous
coals of the north of England, and to make no re-
ference to the relative merits of the two coals. The
experiments at Cardiff will embrace a wider field,
and settle, it is to be hoped definitively, the dis-
puted question of the evaporative power and gene-
ral superiority of the rival coals.
Rear-Admiral John Shepherd has signified his
intention of resigning his post of Superintendent of
Woolwich Dockyard to-morrow morning, and will
be succeeded by Captain the Hon. James R. Drum-
mond, Aide-de-Camp to the Queen, who is ex-
pected to assume the duties of his new appointment
during the day.
The line-of-battle screw-steamer Goliath, 80, has
had her spare fan put on board, at Chatham, and
the result of the trials showing it to work satisfac- '
torily, the steamer has been taken down to her for-
mer moorings at Long Reach.
The Childers, 12, Commander W. Swinburn,
having been stripped and her stores returned into
the dockyard, is ordered to be paid off at Chatham,
to• morrow.

The Delia, Captain Zudolph Rapke,from Quebec,
has arrived at Chatham dockyard with a cargo of
deals, spars, and oak rafters for that establish-
ment.

Her Majesty's iron paddlewheel steamvessel
Bloodhound, at Woolwich, late from the West Coast
of Africa, having undergone a thorough survey, is
ordered to be repaired. Several of her plates are
completely eaten through with rust and rot. £2,200
having been stipulated by the factory and ship-
wright departments as the sum necessary to com-
plete the total amount of repairs, their lordships
have sanctioned the requisition.
Her Majesty's iron screw steam storeship Supply
in basin at Woolwich, discharging antiquities from
Boudroun and Carthage, was yesterday ordered to
be surveyed and return to the East and reload with
a similar cargo. M. Panizzi, secretary to the
British Museum, yesterday went on board the Sup-
ply at Woolwich and entered into arrangements
for the transport of the valuable relics to London.
Some of the cases are of great weight, particularly
a marble sarcophagus from Sidon.
The following appointments were made yester-
day at the.. Admiralty :—Mr. J. Tonkin, assistant
master-attendant at Portsmouth, to be master—
attendant of that dockyard, vice Underwood,
resigned ; Mr. R. Stokes (acting master-attendant
at Cork), to be assistant master-attendant at Ports-
mouth, vice Tonkin, promoted. 'lt is not the inten-
tion of the Board of Admiralty to fill up the
appointment at Cork, vacated by Mr. Stokes.

'METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

To-day's market was fairly supplied with beasts, both as
to number and quality. All breeds sold steadily at fully
Monday's improvement in value. Sheep—the show of
which was only moderate—changed hands freely at full
quotations. We had rather an active inquiry for colours,
at a further advance in prices of 2d per 81bs, the top quo-
tations being 5s per 81bs. There was a fair inquiry for
pigs at extreme rates ; but milch cows commanded very
little attention.

THAMES.

LEAD US NOT INTO TEmrraTioN.—Three boys, rough
and dirty, who presented the appearance of having been
greatly neglected, and 'who gave the names of Ritchie,
Howard, and Macgennis, was brought before Mr. Yardley,
charged with stealing 3 lbs. of tallow candles, the property
of Mr. Cooke, a shopkeeper, at the corner of Grundy-street
and Crisp-street, Poplar.
The boys, who have been allowed to run wild about the?
streets, committing acts of mischief and petty pilfering, took
advantage of a box of candles being exposed on the foot-
path outside the prosecutor's shop, to steal 3 lbs. of them, '
with which they ran away. They were pursued and taken
into custody with the candles upon them.
The father of the prisoner Ritchie attended, on
behalf of his son, on which Pullen, a police-constable, No.
161 K, said the man had been tried at the Clerkenwell
Sessions for fowl stealing, and acquitted, and was after-
wards convicted of fowl stealing, and sentenced to three
months' imprisonment and hard labour.
Ritchie admitted the truth of the officer's statement, and
said that six years had elapsed since his conviction, and he
had been working at his trade of a shoemaker and getting
his living honestly.

Mr. Yardley admonished Ritchie to take more care of hips
son, and ordered him to enter into his recognisances in the
sum of £2O for his good behaviour for three years, and said
that recognisance would be enforced if the boy offended
again. He remanded Howard and Magennis until Monday
next. The magistrate then said it was highly improper for
traction:Lett to expose goods for sac 04 00 oopaths iu front

THE ATLANTIC CABLE.

The question as to the replacing of the Atlantic
Telegraph Cable is likely to be decided in a few days.
The company have rfiatle application to the Govern-
Molt for a guarantee of 4 per cent. on £537,000,
subject to the same conditions as that of. the Red
Sea line, and this has been backed by memorials
signed by the leading firms, not only of London,
but of Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Leeds,
Halifax, Bradford, Hull, Glasgow, Paisley, and
Norwich. Supposing it to be granted, contracts
will immediately be concluded for a new cable,
and any negotiations that may be thought de-
sirable with the American Government will
subsequently be entered into. No attempts
can be made, with any prospect of success, to
lift the old cable until the return of calm weather
at the end of April or May, and, even under the
best circumstances, the expectations with regard to
the operation are not favourable. Meanwhile it
has been definitively ascertained that the existing
damage was not at the shore end. The laying
of the new end has been completed to a distance
of 12 miles out from Valentia, and the portion
taken up was found to be in a perfect condition for
all electrical purposes. Experiments lately under-
taken by a person previously unconnected with
the enterprise strongly support the original infer-
ence, that the main fault is about 270 miles from
the Irish coast, at a depth probably of 900 fathoms.
There 'is also a fault on the other side, which is
thought to be about. 300 miles from Newfoundland.
Currents, however, still continue to be received,
although of a kind so feeble and uncertain as to be
useless for any practical purpose. At present the
telegraph is in charge of Mr. Henley, who is
manufacturing an apparatus such as his expe•
rience on the spot leads him to think may
yet possibly lead to some results, but in no
case could there be ahope of achieving permanently
any satisfactory communication otherwise than by
an entirely new line. After the unanimous
expression of opinion, not merely by the commer•
cial towns but the people at large, that the work is
one the nation should not allow to fail, it may be
presumed there is little doubt of the required help
being accorded, subject to such stipulations as may
protect the general interests of the public. Among
other provisions some modifications in the construc-
tion of the Board might, perhaps, be advantageously
demanded.
