LAW INTELLIGENCE:—(This Day.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood.)
IN RE ROSHERVILLE GARDENS.
Mr. Mayo's petition foss a winding-up order of this
company was again brought before his Honour the
Vice-Chancellor, this morning.
The Vice-Chancellor granted an order to wind up the
company, under the Winding-up Act, unless the direc-
tors of the company within one month paid to Mr.
Mayo the debt, interest, and expenses due by the com-
pany to him.
Costs of all parties to be paid out of the funds of the
company in the event of the money not being paid, and
the winding-up order made absolute.
The directors hoped that an arrangement would be
come to before the expiry of that time. If not, the
bankruptcy of the company will be advertised in 14
days.
His Honour observed that payment of the company's
debts was a good test of solvency, and nonpayment a
good proof of int olvency, and that he meant to act upon
that principle in this and any other case that might
come before him.

ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Matter of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.)
DAVIES V. BULLOCK.
The testator, Andrew Davies, by his will declared, in
case there shall not be any child or children of his eldest
son, Robert Davies, alive at the time of his death, then
the trusts, money, interest, annuities, and dividends
shall be paid to the testator's blood relations or
next of kin, and be subject to the same order of distri-
bution as it would be in case of his dying intestate.
His Honour the Master of the Rolls, in delivering
judgment this morning, said that in this case he
would follow the same course taken by him as in
the case of Wheeler v. Andrews. His Honour was of
opinion that the sister of the testator was not entitled
to take the monies bequeathed under this will—that the
next of kin were excluded by the statute of distributions
—it would only give them two-thirds unless this greater
provision was introduced. That the destination was to
apply to a course of events that was to occur and not
to the time when they began to be undertaken. That
the statute of limitation did not apply, and was no bar
to ;the present claim. 'That the child or children of
Robert afterwards born were entitled to take, and that
he is entitled to be recompensed out of the existing fund,
the share or shares belonging to them. The decree will
bear this day's date. Costs are reserved, and the decree
will be adjusted on the minutes.

COURT FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF
CROWN CASES RESERVED.
;Before Lord Campbell, the Lord Chief Justice of the
Common Pleas, the Lord Chief Baron, and eleven of
the Paisue Judges.)

The Court sat this morning for the consideration of
criminal cases reserved. Amongst them were three
cases of murder, which rendered it necessary for the
assembling of the fill court, a circumstance that has Not
occurred for many years. The appearance of so many
learned judges on the bench had a very novel and
imposing effect.

THE ANDAMAN ISLANDS.

The following extract from a private letter written
by an officer on board the Roebuck, contens some
interesting intelligence respecting the Andaman
Islands, now converted into a penal settlement for
the mutinous Sepoys :
" Our cruise to the Andamans would have been
pleasant had we had other than ship provisions in
the mess. We called at Port Blair (our head-quar-
ters), and found two of the company's ships there,
with Dr. Walker, superintendent of the penal set-
tlement, and other officers on board; and then went
on our cruise to the south of Rutland Island, and as
far as 12 deg. 30 min. N., keeping the land in sight
all day (sometimes within a mile of it) to look for
Malay vessels which resort there for birds' nests
and sea slugs, but we were unsuccessful ; in fact,
nothing was to be seen but a few native huts, and
canoes hauled up on the beach. Only once did we
see anything of the savages, who were bathing or
fishing under the trees. There are four Andaman
Islands—Northern, Southern, Middle, anJ. the Great
Andaman ; but these, of course, have several
smaller islands attached to them. They are covered
so densely with trees that nothing is seen of them.
Port Blair was the only part where we could ven-
ture on shore, and then only with our revolvers, in '
case of meeting some natives. The company's ships
have lost several men (one officer of the Pluto), and
when the Sesostris sent a watering party on shore
the other day they were suddenly attacked by na-
tives with bows and arrows, the latter pointed with
hard wood, and found to penetrate a boat's side.
Several arrows were fired, and one went through a
man's thigh, which made our party run for it, not
being armed, and return to the ship for muskets.
When they got back to the watering-place, they
found that the savages had decamped, taking with
them the hoops of the casks. Little is known
about these natives. It is believed that they live
upon fish ; some live up the trees. The only kind
of flesh to be had is that of the wild pig, which
they shoot. This information was obtained by Se-
poys in the following way. I believe Dr. W. sent
several of them away into the interior with muskets
and ammunition to explore the country, but few of
them came back, for they were nearly all killed by
the savages. Before that, however, a great num-
ber of the Sepoys deserted, and those that returned,
80 in number, were hanged on the trees in Chatham
Island. There are two small islands in Port Blair
—Ross Island at the entrance, and Chatham in the
middle, of the harbour ; both of these are bearing
the tents of about 800 mutineers of the highest
rank, and as soon as the sweeps are caught up
country in India, they are packed off to their new
home in the Andamans, where they have to culti-
vate the ground, by first burning or cutting down
the jungle. On Ross Island, while we were there,
they were building a hospital and a pier for boats.
They are all alone, having only-the Burmese, whom
they despise, as guards, to look after them, with
the naval guard of the company."

AUSTRIA.

Advices from Vienna state that the Empress of
Austria had so far recovered from her recent con-
finement that her Majesty has commenced taking
carriage exercise ; also that the health of the little
Imperial Prince is everything that could be
desired.

The Archhuke Charles Louis, governor of the
Tyrol, and youngest brother of the Emperor of
Austria, has been so-much affected by the death of
his wife, the Archduchess Marguerite, that he in-
tends, a Vienna letter states, to enter a monastery.
The Cologne Gazette announces that the Austrian
Lloyd's Company is prepared to resist by all means
the competition of the Russian Steam Navigation
Company. The Austrian Company intends to re-
duce its fares and to makes other concessions to
traders. It expects further that the Government
will increase the pecuniary allowance made to the
Company.
London, England, 1858-10-05

of Parliament, he thought he would mention what
were the feelings on his mind which should induce
the House of
_Commons to place this country in a
state of adequate security. (Applause.)
Mr. J. GREENWOOD also briefly responded to the
toast.

Lord GODERICII, in giving "The Press," said
that free discussion was the breath of liberty, and
though there might often be articles in newspapers
which ought to be disapproved, and though news-
papers very frequently contained criticisms of all
men—(laughter)—he was certain that no man who
loved the institutions of this country would desire
to fetter the freedom of the press. (Hear, hear.) A
great many errors were propagated by the press,
but a great deal of truth also. He believed that the
truth was greater than the error, and that, there-
fore, the country gained by the unfettered freedom
and liberty of the press. (Applause.) He was par-
ticularly pleased to have to propose the toast of the
press on that occasion, coupled with the name of
Mr. Baines, the editor of the Leeds Mercury, than
whom no man connected with the press had pur-
sued a more consistent, honest, and honourable
course, or had done more to elevate the character
of the press. (Applause.)
Mr. E. BAINES, in responding to the toast, said
Lord Goderich had truly stated that the press was
an instrument which might be used for good or for
evil, but he (Mr. Baines) was quite sure that on
the whole it was one of the main props of the liberty
of England. (Hear, hear.) There was, however, a
great responsibility attaching to those who had the
use of and the control over that power. (Hear.)
The press might be used to promote the highest
interests of the country ; not merely to uphold
liberty, not merely fairly, freely, and boldly to
canvass the merits of a minister, a statesman, or a
Government, but to allay terror in the time of
danger, to heal panic, to unite those who were
divided, to put down prejudices, to remove un-
founded accusations, to carry on the great princi-
ples of liberty and progress, and to aid every
improvement in the country, moral, social, intellec-
tual, and political. (Applause.) He believed that
the press had been for years past doing much more
good in this country than evil, and had advanced
to a very considerable degree the material and
social interests of the land. (Applause.)

COUNTRY MARKETS.

ROCHESTER--OcT. 2_
There has been a general decline in prices in our corn
market, with sales exceedingly dull. The stands are only
moderately supplied with wheat and barley, and a general
listlessness appeared to prevail among both buyers and
sellers. The barley trade was slow, some good samples
were done at 445. The oat trade was quiet, but prices are
evidently tending downwards. Beans and peas were a
trifle cheaper.
White wheat, new, 44s to 50s

There has been a larger supply than demand of wheat to-
day, and for both old and new a decline of is to 2s per qr
was noted, and there was no alteration in the prices of
other grain.

THE AN.DAMAN ISLANDS.

The following extract from a private letter written
by an officer on. board the Roebuck, contains some
interesting intelligence respecting the Andaman
Islands, now converted into a penal settlement for
the mutinous Sepoys :
Our cruise to Vie Andamans would have been
pleasant had we had other than ship provisions in
the mess. We called at Port Blair (our head-quar-
ters), and found two of the company's ships there,
with Dr. Walker, superintendent of the penal set-
tlement, and other officers on board; and then went
on our cruise to the south of Rutland Island, and as
far as 12 deg. 30 min. N., keeping the land in sight
all day (sometimes within a mile of it) to look for
Malay vessels which resort there for birds' nests
and sea slugs, but we were unsuccessful ; in fact,
nothing was to be seen but a few native huts, and
canoes hauled up on the beach. Only once did we
see anything of the savages, who were bathing or
fishing under the trees. There are four Andaman
Islands—Northern, Southern, lvliddle, an the Great
Andaman ; but these, of course, have several
smaller islands attached to them. They are covered
so densely with trees that nothing is seen of them.
Port Blair was the only part where we could ven-
ture on shore, and then only with our revolvers in
case of meeting some natives. The company's ships
have lost several men (one officer of the Pluto), and
when the Sesostris sent a watering party on shore
the other day they were suddenly attacked by na-
tives with bows and arrows, the latter pointed with
hard wood, and found to penetrate a boat's side.
Several arrows were fired, and one went through a
man's thigh, which made our party run for it, not
being armed, and return to the ship for muskets.
When they got back to the watering-place, they
found that the savages had decamped, taking with
them the hoops of the casks. Little is known
about these natives. It is believed that they live
upon fish ; some live up the trees. The only kind
of flesh to be had is that of the wild pig, which
they shoot. This information was obtained by Se-
poys in the following way. I believe Dr. IV. sent
several of them away into the interior with muskets
and ammunition to explore the country, but few of
them came back, for they were nearly all killed by
the savages. Before that, however, a great num-
ber of the Sepoys deserted, and those that returned,
80 in number, were hanged on the trees in Chatham.
Island. There are two small islands in Port Blair
—Ross Island at the entrance, and Chatham in the
middle, of the harbour ; both of these are bearing
the tents of about 800 mutineers of the highest
rank, and as soon as the sweeps are caught up
country in India, they are packed off to their new
home in the Andamans, where they have to culti-
vate the ground, by first burning or cutting down
the jungle. On Ross Island, while we were there,
they were building a hospital and a pier for boats.
They are all alone, having only the Burmese, whom
they despise, as guards, to look after them, with
the naval guard of the company."

THE DEAL BOATMEN

A meeting of very considerable public interest
took place at Deal last week. For some time past
the boatmen of the coast, so well known for the
daring heroism with which they encounter the
perils of the storm, have, from causes beyond their
own control, been suffering severe privations. The
peculiar character of the mariners, who, while
notorious for their straightforwardness and prin-
ciple, are also remarkable for their reserved bearing
not alone to strangers, but even to many of their
neighbours, occasioned great doubt in the minds
of many how far they were approachable even
by those most anxious for their welfare. Not
daunted, however, by this prevalent feeling,
some gentlemen residing in the vicinity of Deal,
who had informed themselves ,as to the real condition
of the boatmen, determined to approach them with
the influence of sympathy and kindness. An enter-
tainment was accordingly arranged for Saturday,
to which upwards of 200 of the boatmen were in-
vited. It was served in a room appropriately
decorated, and consisted of tea, with cold viands,
and fruit contributed from the gardens of the
neighbouring gentry. Mr. Henry Kingscote, of
Eaton-place, presided, supported by Lord Marcus
Hill, Sir Edmund Filmer, Mr. A. Sandeman
(late of New South Wales), the Mayor of Deal,
the rector of the parish, and other gentlemen. Each
of these in turn addressed the meeting ; but the
interest turned mainly upon the response of the
mariners to this appeal to the higher and better
characteristics of humanity. The invitation had
been accepted possibly by many from feelings of
curiosity, but after the first expression of surprise
had passed, the boatmen appeared to cast aside
their habitual restraint, and to receive with perfect
good-will and confidence the expressions, which
emanated from the speakers, of anxiety for the im-
provement of their social position. Two of the
oldest boatmen addressed the assembly on the
part of their fellows, expressing their grate-
ful sense of the spirit which had prompted
the entertainment, and their desire to avail
themselves of the opportunity of making their own
exertions additionally available for the benefit of
themselves and families. On the following day, as
a mark of gratitude and respect, and as some
acknowledgment of the entertainment, the boats of
Deal were decorated by the mariners with all the
flags that could be mustered in the town and neigh-
bourhood. A committee has since been formed for
the purpose of taking measures for the permanent
relief of the distress which circumstances have
occasioned in Deal, and it is hoped that when the
facts are made fully known much public sympathy
will be excited on behalf of the Deal boatmen.

LATEST NEWS.

FRANCE.

PARIS, TUESDAY MORNING.
Prince Napoleon returned to Paris last night.
PARIS, MONDAY.
_ _

" All that has transpired relative to the steps
taken by Prince Napoleon to induce the Czar to
visit Paris," says a Paris letter in the Independance
of Brussels, " is this :—Alexander 11. is said to have
replied that he had promised the Emperor of the
French and Queen Victoria to visit France and
England, and that he hoped to be able to perform
his promise next spring."
It is certain that the French Government. has
sent two ships-of-war to Lisbon, to support its
demand for the restitution of the Charles Georges.
The marriage of the Duke of Malakoff will be
celebrated at St. Cloud on the 12th instant. His
Excellency will return to London with the duchess
on the 13th or 14th of this month.
The Moniteur publishes a convention entered into
between the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce
and the Credit Foncier de France, for carrying
into execution the laws of July 17, 1856, and
May 28, 1858, relative to the drainage operations,
and for which purpose the former law authorised
loans to be made to different landowners to the total
amount of 100,000,000 f. By the convention above-
mentioned, and which is approved by an Imperial
decree, the Credit Foncier Company takes the place
of the State in making the said loans, but under
the surveillance of the Minister of Agriculture, to
whom all applications must be addressed. The
money thus lent is to be applied solely for drainage
opetations, to be carried on by the borrower
under the inspection of the Government engineers.
The Credit Foncier has to see that the money is not
appropriated to any other purposes. The Minister,
in forwarding a copy of the convention to the
Prefects of Departments, has accompanied it by an
explanatory circular, and urges on the Prefects and
those under them the necessity of seeing the provi-
sions carried out in the most efficient manner.
We learn by telegraph:—
" HAMBURG, 3d.—The King of Denmark has
again become so indisposed that he is confined to
his bed, and consequently his Majesty will not
leave Glucksburg for Copenhagen to morrow to
open the Legislative Session."
" MADRID, 3d.—The Gazette contains a decree
which puts an end to the suspension of the sale of
civil property."

BOURSE, Oct. 4.—The market has been very
buoyant, and a large speculative business done both
in Rente and Mobilier. Threes varied from 73f.
95c. to 74f. 20c. ; Mobilier, I,ooof. to 1,020 f. ; Aus-
