MR. BRIGHT, M.P., AND MR. DANDY SEYMOUR,
M.P.—Tho newly-issued number of the Fortnightly Re-
view prints, in conspicuous place and type, the following
honourable retractation and apology : "Two unconsidered
charges were made against Mr. Bright in the November
number of this Review. I represented him as having said,
first, that 'all the land of England is in the hands of 150
proprietors ;' and, secondly, that ' the poor only are fit to
legislate for the rich.' lam happy to retract bothcharges.
It is needless to add that I very sincerely regret having
made them.—HENRY D. EIC:INIOUlt."

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
(Bofor© Mr. Baron Martin.)
BUCKLE V. MIDLAND RAILWAY COMPANY.

This was an action brought to recover the value of a
horse which the plaintiff alleged ho lost i❑ consequence
of the defendant's carelessness. The accident to the
horse occurred in Belsize-lane, where the company
have a tramway across the road, and it was crossing this
at nine o'clock oue evening that the horse stumbled, and
received such injuries that it died a short time after. The
plaintiff alleged and called four witnesses to prove that the
road was in a highly dangerous condition previous to the
accdent, after which it was repaired. A veterinary sur-
geon was examined as to the value of the horse, which he
thought would bo about £l2. He, however, ad-
mitted in cross-examination that ho did not look
at the horse's mouth when he first saw it after
the accident, but he was quite certain the horse was
aged from its general appearance. The animal died front
inflammation, but there was nothing inconsistent with
death from natural causes.
iMr. Huddleston, Q.C. appeared for the company,
and said he should call witnesses to prove that
the road was not in a bad condition, and the
accident was not to be attributed to any want of
caution on the part of the railway company, as they had
parties placed at the spot night and day to guard the public
against accidents arising from the passing of a locomotive
at frequent periods over the tramway. He also said the
value of the horse was much exaggerated.

The evidence was veiy conflicting, and from the pro-
gress made in the cause it seemed likely to occupy the
court until the hour of rising.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

THANES.

AUDACIOUS ROBBERY BY A SERVANT GlRL.—Julia Ryan,
an Irish girl, aged 17, was charged with stealing a variety
of property belonging to Mr. William Rayner, the land-
lord of the Lord Campbell public-house in Campbell-road,
Bow, and Mrs. Mary Vincent, his mother-in-law.

The prisoner had been in the service of Mr. Rayner for
a fortnight only, and her general conduct had been so had,
and so many articles were missing, that Mrs. Vincent, a
widow, on behalf of her son-in-law, gave her notice to
quit yesterday. As the hour for her departure approached
she became very uneasy, and appeared to increase in bulk.
Mrs. Vincent missed other property to a considerable
amount, and sent for a police constable named Nicholls,
430 IC, who took her into custody. On the way to the
station-house the prisoner gave up eight foreign coins, two
handkerchiefs, a piece of lace, and a pair of scissors, all
being the property of Mrs. Raynor. She was searched
at the station-house by Matilda Fountain, the wife of a
police-constable, to whom she represented that she was in
the familyway. Mrs. Fountain immediately delivered her
of two shawls, four pairs of stockings, a pair of boots, a
shirt, a child's frock, three pieces of calico, a flannel bag,
and a piece of sheeting, all fastened round her waist under
her petticoats by a piece of string. All the property was
identified by Mrs. Vincent, and she valued the various
articles at £5.

The prisoner offorod no defence, and said she was guilty.
The magistrate said the prisonor was a most audacious
thief to have stolen property valued at £5 in ono day, be-
eides the property she had stolen at other times. He com-
mitted her for trial.

chair, and in his address to those present he said that if
the working classes applied themselves to the oppor-
tunities which were offered to thorn of cultivating their
minds they would have more power and more influence
throughout the kingdom, and the exercise of that power
would contribute to the interests of the State. There had
been a groat deal said about conferring the elective fran-
chise) upon the working classes. For several reasons he
had approved and supported the reduction of the franchise,
and be saw no reason whatever to regret the course
which he had taken. Lord Grey, who had well considered
the question, said with regard to the direct representation
in Parliament of the working classes, that they should be
enabled to send a limited number of members who should
directly represent them in the House. When such words
came from so high an authority as Lord Grey, ho (Sir
Robert Peel) thought they deserved the most serious con-
sideration of the Government. Whatever scheme of Re-
form might be brought forward, they would find him
always bearing in mind the great importance of the
working classes in this country. Ile was glad to see that
the artisan and middle classes were taking a more lively
interest than hitherto in the improvement of their social
and political condition. The income of the working
classes was very large, and therefore it was very import-
ant that they should be fairly and fully represented in the
House of Commons.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, an elderly
lady, against the defendant, one of the sons of the
late Sergeant Storlces, for compensation for illegal
detention in a lunatic asylum. The plaintiff went
to France with Sergeant Stoikes and his family,
and some disagreements having arisen between herself
and the sergeant's sous it was alleged that she was a
lunatic, and she was accordingly placed under restraint.
She protested against the proceedings, and ultimately she
was released. She now sought to recover ample and sub
stantial damages for such treatment. Tho plaintiff's
examination had not terminated when our report left and
the case is not likely to conclude to-day.
