the cheers to the great Homeric scholar and the
illustrious rhetorician. Lord DERBY'S name, as
a matter of right and of course, elicited the ring-
ing plaudits naturally his due to the chief of men
both for England and for Oxford—as Chancellor of
the University and as First Lord of the Treasury.
But what says even the anti-Derbyite organ in
allusion to the next incident ? Why, that " the
mention of Mr. DISRAELI brought down thunders
of applause !" It reminds one of the ovation
the right bon. gentleman received in person from
the undergraduates at the time of Lord DERBY'S
Installation—when in his scarlet gown he ad-
vanced to receive his degree of D.C.L. from the
hands of the new Chancellor. The popular man-
of-letters, who has won his way solely by his own
unaided abilities to be the leader of the Gentle-
men:of England, is manifestly not the least popular
among the generous-hearted youth of the Univer-
sity. And that prolonged and ardent popularity
of his down at Oxford constitutes, we doubt not,
one of the most cherished and appreciated rewards
of his life. He had a few years since, as we have
intimated, the gratification of receiving it himself
in person. It is now cordially reiterated to him
in his absence by another and a yet younger
generation. Pleasant sounds, the echo of those
ringing cheers from the banks of the Isis—heart-
ening, in the midst of his responsible labours,
the Leader of the Commons and the Chancellor
of the Exchequer.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This. Day.)

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius at Westminster, before Lord
Campbell and a Special Jury.)
HUGHES V. LADY DINOBBEN-LIBEL.
The further hearing of this extraordinary case was
resumed. The Court was again densely crowded.
Col. Williams, M.P., cross-examined by Mr. Macau-
lay—He was the son of the first Lord Dinorben's sister.
Sir Richard Bulkeley was son of another sister ; he
might have received letters from Lady Dinorben since
1852: he had had no oommunication with her person-
ally or by letter since 1854; the letters from Lady
Dinorben relative to his trusteeship under the will of
the first Lord Dinorben, which he produced yesterday,
be had received back from his solicitor, Mr. Bloxam ;
his mother was the eldest sister. In the first Lord's
will Sir R. Bulkeley's children were placed before his
(Col. Williams) in the settlement. He formed his
opinion as to the writer of the anonymous letters en-
tirely from the six letters, be had received from Lady
Dinorben about the trust. On comparing one letter
received by him with one of the anonymous letters to
Lord Ravensworth, he considered them to be written
by the same person. He formed that opinion from the
similarity of the writing, and not from the contente.
He could not speak positively when he first saw the
anonymous letters. He had no communication with
Sir R. Bulkeley at the time respecting these letters.
Re-examined by Mr. James—The genuine letters
were handed to Mr. Bloxam in the regular course of

business.
Mr. John Wallis, examined by Mr. James--He re-
sided on his own property in Ireland. He was a nephew
of Lady Dinorben. His sister died on the sth of May,
1857. Previous to her death she was in the habit of
staying with Lady Dinorben. At the latter period of
her life she was not beat pleased with Lady Dinorben,
and they were not on the same affectionate terms as
before. His sister died at St. Leonard's.
Mr. James—Did you find an anonymous letter there ?
Witness declined to answer the question ; he was
placed in a very awkward position.
Lord Campbell said there was no doubt of that, but
he must answer the question.
Witness continued—He found an anonymous letter
there. It was not opened before his sister's death. He
opened it. (Witness, after appealing to the learned
judge, produced it.) It has not the seal now on it it
had when he found it. He gave it the day before to
Sir Kingston James, who was connected with Lady
Dinorben, to show to Mr. Walker, her ladyship's soli.
citor, and on receiving it he found the seal had been
sealed over. He complained of it, and told Sir Kingston
he would have nothing more to do with it. The seal on
the letter had a head, but not like the head on the seal
of letter No. 1. It was similar, and had been sealed
over like his late sister's letter. Mr. Bloxam saw his
sister's letter in witness's presence, the day before yes.
terday, before the seal of it was obliterated. He would
not positively state he told Mr. Bloxam the seal on
it was like the seal on the anonymous letter referred to.
He had heard Sir Kingston James was here as a wit
ness for Lady Dinorbee.
Mr. Macaulay—He is on my brief, and I shall call
him.
Mr. James—ln whose handwriting is the letter ad-
dressed to your sister
Witness—Am I bound to answer the question ?
Lord Campbell—Yes.
Witness—lie believed it was in Lady Dinorben'e

handwriting.
The letter was then real. It was not dated. It was
addressed—
"Dear Miss Smith,—l have learnt you are not so
well as the writer of this wishes you, but trust you will
be spared. Is it true you have been prevented leaving,
es you intended, 2,0001. to your unfortunate cousin,
Mary Smith 1 The person who has so influenced you
has no charity, and will never have luck with your for-
tune. Do not be guided by such avarice, disgusted avarice,
you know your unfortunate cousin has not one farthing ;
therefore do as you intended and leave her something,
to prevent her starving, and the great God will bless
you, as you hope to see Him. Think of this, and let
no one pervert your kind feeling from this charity.'
His sister resided with Lady Dinorben, off and on,
Cross-examined by Mr. Macaulay—He should not
have come here if it had not been from the representa-
tion of Mr. Bloxam. lie represented to witness it was
Lady Dinorben's intention to impute the letter com-
plained of to his deceased sister, and he came prepared
to vindicate her character. He had compared the seals
on those letters with that on his sister's, and he told
Mr. Bloxam they were very much alike, but not exactly.
Sir Kingston James returned hie sister's letter in an
envelope, and in sealing it it had stuck to the seal of the
original letter.
Mr. Bloxam was called, and said he examined the
seals on two of the anonymous letters, with the seal on
Miss Vlellis's letter, and he believed they were impress
sions from the same seal. He said to Mr. Wallis that,
from the similarity of Miss Wallis's handwriting to that
of Lady Dinorben having been pointed out to him by
the opposite party, he had reason to believe it was the
intention of the defendant to endeavour to make
out that the anonymous letter was written by
his sister, but that he (witness) did not believe it, and
he wanted his assistance to discever the author ; the
letter had been shown to the opposite party before his
interview with Mr. Wallis.
Cross-examined by Mr. Macaulay—The writ was
issued on the 31st July last, and the declaration setting
out the libels not till November; he declined in July
to show the letters, his counsel being out of town,
but he showed them in November to the defendant's
solicitors, he showed them four or five of the letters,
if not the whole of them ; he also produced a num-
ber of Lady Dinorben'a genuine letters. Two of
them were supposed not to be genuine. The defend-
ant's solicitors sail the object for their Examining the
letters was to arrive at the truth. He did not stipulate
that what had passed between them should be con-
fidential, but that it should not be used by either party.
Mr. Thomas Williams, solicitor, residing in Wales—
He was for a considerable time solicitor and land-agent
to Lord Dinorben. He continued land agent till 1858.
He bad corresp mded with Lady Dinorben. He did not
believe the letter No. 1 to be in her ladyship's hand-
writing ; " wh" in the word " what," in the letter
was like her writing. He was unable to sly if the
"f's" and the capital letter "M" wero like Lady
Dinorben's writing. The second letter produced he did
not believe was her ladyship's handwriting. When Mr.
Bloxam showed it to him he informed him that be did
not believe it was in Lady Dinorben'a handwriting.
He could not swear to them. He might have said to
Mr. Bloxam there was a similarity in the handwriting,
and that there were many letters there very much like
Lady Dinorben'a.
Cross-examined by Mr. Macaulay—He was first
shown the letter to Lord Ravensworth and Mr. Lid-
dell some part of last year.
Sir Richard Bulkeley, M.P. for Anglesea, exa-
mined by Mr. E. James—He was nephew of the first
Lord Dinorben, and a trustee under the will. The
letter produced, " 4 A," addressed to Col. Williams,
with the postmark 6th November, 1852, he did not
think was in Lady Dinorben's handwriting. The letter
addressed to Lord Ravens worth was not like her lady-
ship's usual handwriting, and, from hie own observa-
tion and knowledge, he should say it was not her
handwriting. There was one "w" like her ladyship's
peculiarity of writing. There were other " w's '' in the
same letter that were not like it. The letter addressed
to Mr. Liddell was unlike Lady Dinorben's hand wriing.
w" and "h" in " what" in that letter were like hers.
His evidence applied in the same manner to the letter
commencing "Hugh, how can you be such an ass ?"
He did not know if she usually spoke of Mr. Hughes
as "Hugh." He believed there was a word in the
letter No. 6 in Lady Dinorben'a handwriting. The
word was " wh—," in the sentence, " son of a wh—."
Cross-examined by Mr. Macaulay—Mr. Hughes re-
ceived an anonymous letter relative to witness and the
county of Anglesea election, which they believed was
written by her ladyship. He after wards wrote a letter
to her, expressing his regret (after her denial that she
wrote it) at having attributed it to her.
Miss Luiskill, examined by Mr. Honeyman—She was
a niece of the first Lord Dinorben's first wife. After
her aunt's death she continued to reside with him at
Kirmel-park after hie second marriage with the present
Lady Dinorben. She had never seen her write, and
had only received one letter from her. Witness bad
seen letters and notes addressed by her ladyship. She
had seen the letter addressed to Lord liavensworth and
Mr. Liddell ; she was not well acquainted with her
ladyship's handwriting; but to the bast of her belief she
considered they were in her ladyship's handwriting.
Cross-examined by Mr. Macaulay—She told Mr.
Bloxam last year, when he brought the letters to her,
that she thought they were in Lady Dinorben's hand-
writing. She received the letter referred to, in 1841,
i
after her mother's death. She had not kept t.
Re-examined—The letter too herself was anonymous.
Lord Campbell—How do y know they came from
Lady Dinorben
Witness—Because they were so very much like her
handwriting. Sbe had received two letters from Lady
Dinorben with her signature, and one anonymous. The
latter she rent to Lord Dinorben, and wrote to him
respecting its contents. She had not presery d

Mr. Morris, in the employ of a stationer of Mount

some years before 1854. The letter commencing " the
housekeeper, oh the housekeeper," was written on
paper and enclosed in an envelope, supplied by his firm.
The envelope had the name of the firm on it. The
letter was posted South-street, Grosvenor-square, the
nearest post-office to Lady Dinorben's residence.
Cross-examined by Mr. Macaulay—The paper and
envelope were like that supplied to her ladyship—they
sold a large quantity of the same kind to other persons.
Re-examined by Mr. James—The paper and envelope
produced were of the character supplied to her ladyship.
She was very particular in having that quality and
description. When her ladyship was in mourning she
had another quality as well.

[The anonymous letters, with genuine letters of her
ladyship's writing, were put into the witness's bands.]
The anonymous letters were written in a disguised
handwriting. There were different disguises, but they
were written by the same person. The letter "w" all
through the letters was an eccentric character. There
was a peculiarity running through all of them relative
to " wb," " tn,' cap. " H," and other letters, especially
the "D" in Dinorben. There was a distinct dash after
the final "g" or "y." He (witness) minutely pointed
out the peculiarity that led him to sta`e the anonymous
letters produced were all written by the same person.
There were several instances where the writer had for-
gotten to disgui e, and had broken into the natural
hand.
Photographs of the letters and documents were
handed in for the guidance of the Jury.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

The Vulcan steam troop frigate, Commander J.
Seccombe, arrived at Portsmouth on Wednesday
evening from Gibraltar, which she left at 8 p.m. en
the 7th inst., with 100 tons of Ordnance stores and
the following passengers :—Deputy-Commissary-
General Dinwiddie, Capt. Lawson R.A., Lieut.
C. Collingwood, R.A., Capt. a 4. Layton, 25th
Regiment, Ensign W. Keogh, Ist Royals, Quarter-
master Hopkins, late of the 31st Regiment ; Sir
J. and Lady Cochrane, and two daughters ; Mrs.
Garrett, Mrs. Dinwiddie, Mrs. Hopkins, Mrs. Wil-
liams, Miss Melville, Miss Crocker, Mrs. Layton,
five servants, 16 children, 38 military invalids, 10
soldiers' wives, and 26 children. The Vulcan met
with a misfortune with one of her engines when off
Lisbon, which caused a delay in her passage, but
she has done her work well. She has gone over
20,999 miles, had on board 6,197 passengers, and
transported 2,000 tons of Ordnance stores since the
12th of September last, and has not before this acci-
dent cost anything for repairs during her present
commission. When off Oporto she was passed by
her Majesty's steamers Racoon and Renown. The
Vulcan, however, has m? intained her chat acter
as
a sailing ship, and proved herself to be as handy as
a cutter in beating to windward. She had a severe
trial against a first-rate Yankee clipper, dead on
a wind, between the Narrows from the Nab light
vessel to Spithead, and " eat" her out of wind,
gaining on every tack. The Vulcan is likely to be
under repair for the next month, requiring new
shaft, connecting rod, &c.
The Lizard steam-vessel, Lieutenant in command
Edward Mansell, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday
from. the eastward.
The Locust, 3, paddlewheel vessel, Lieutenant-
Commander J. B. Field, arrived at Portsmouth
yestet day afternoon from the eastward.
A flotilla of gunboats are ordered to be prepared
for sea from the reserve at Portsmouth. They are
intended for foreign service.
The Bloodhound, 3, steam vessel, Lieutenant-
Commander Robson, arrived at Spithead yesterday
from the West Coast of Africa Station. She left
Sierra Leone April 19, Gambia 26, Teneriffe May
21, Lisbon June 3, and Vigo 11. The Bloodhound
left Devonport on the 16th of September, 1855, but
has been very unfortunate in her captures, as the
only one she made (an American vessel) she had to
give up, and was ordered home in consequence.
The following appointments were made yester-
day at the Admiralty
W. H. Drysdale, master, to the Cressy ; Chas.
Graham, master additional, to the Exmouth ; and

COMMEMORATION WEEK.
Mendelssohn's oratorio of "Elijah" was performed
yesterday afternoon; under the direction of Dr. Corte,
of Christchurcb, in the theatre. The principal vocalists
were Miss Banks, Mr. Sims Reeves, Mr. Weiss, Master
R. Corfe, of Magdalen College ; and Master Pacey, of
Christchurch. An excellent and most efficient band
was engaged from London, under the well-known vio-
linist Blagrove as leader ; the drums were played in
excellent taste by an amateur of the university, the
sister university being also one of the few places in the
kingdom which can boast an amateur drummer. A
fine-toned organ, with powerful pedal pipes, had been
erected by Messrs. Gray and Davison, at which Mr. E.
V. Hall, of Magdalen College, officiated ; and it was
a general subject of regret that the position in
which this instrument was placed viz., immedi-
ately in front of the principal entrance—prevented the
possibility of its remaining up for commemoration,
and so being heard instead of the very useless and
weak instrument on which the professor is at present
obliged to perform. The whole oratorio was performed
with excellent effect, and in first-rate style ; it is almost
neeJless' to say that the solos were rendered in the best
taste. "Then shall the righteous," being enthusiasti-
cally re-demanded of Mr. Sims Reeves, the only encore
conceded (a most judicious proceeding), and Master R.
Corfe being much applauded in "0 rest in the Lord."
The chorusee, which were sustained by Dr. Code's
friends in the university, among which we may mention
as especially effective, "Thanks be to God," and "Be
not afraid," which were given with a spirit and preci-
sion that did full justice to the noble music to which
they are set, and the applause was given repeatedly,
and with hearty good-will, while of Dr. Code's
conducting nothing further could be wished or said.
The Vice-Chancellor was present in his own chair,
also the junior proctor, the professor of music,
the choragus, and many other distinguished mem-
bers of the university and county gentlemen, to-
gether with a large assembly of ladies, who filled the
house, and both by their presence and appreciation of
the performance, amply rewarded Dr. Corfe and his
their band for their energetic efforts.
The procession of racing boats on the Isis last evening
attracted as usual some thousands of spectators, and
the banks on each side of the river were lined with rld
and young almost as far as the eye could reach. The
university barge, which has recently been decorated
with great artistic skill and judgment, and is now a very
striking and pleasing object on the river, was crowded
with ladies elegantly dressed, while a band stationed at
the end of the barge gave increased animation to the
scene. The ornamental barges belonging to the varbus
coil ges were also crowded. About eight o'clock the
racing boats and torpide left Iffiey, and rowed up in the
following order :-
1, Exeter ' • 2, Balliol ' • 3, Oriel ; 4, Pembroke ; 5,
University ; 6, Trinity ; 7, Christchurch Ist ; 8, Wad-
bane ; 9, Brasenose ; 10, St. John's ; 11, Christchurch
2nd ; 12, Worcester • 13, Corpus ; 14, Lincoln.
Torpid Boats.-1, Pembroke ;2, Brasenose ;3, Exe-
ter Ist ; 4, University ; 5, Christchurch ; 6, Trinity ;
7, Banjo' ; 8, Worcester ; 9, Corpus ; 10, Lincoln ; 11,
Oriel ; 12, Exeter, tad ; 13, Wadham ; 14, Zingari
C.nb.
On reaching the university barge, the head boat (Exe-
ter) took its position there, and the crews of the other
boats saluted it by tossing their oars, which the Exeter
acknowledged in the same. The Harlequin crew, in their
earnestness to pay this mark if respect to the head boat,
managed to capsize their own boat, and the whole of
the crew were immersed in the water, to the amusement
and delight of the thousands who witnessed it.
Tile gaieties of the day were brought to a close by a
ball given at the Town-hall by the members of Cerist-
church, with the permission of the Dean, Dr. Liddell.

DEATH OF ADMIRAL SIR C. OGLE,
BART.

THE COMMEMORATION.
The encceaia or commemoration of founders and bene-
factors took place this morning in the Sheldonian

part 1, act 2, scene 4, from What manner of man,' to
' I do, I will.' " Reginald Broughton, scholar of

Bailie).
All the recipients of the honorary degrees were enthu-
siastically cheered, but more especially Lord Stratford
de Radcliffe, General Inglis, and Mr. Justice Hallibur-
ton, were sainted with repeated cries of " Sam Slick."
The scene when General Inglis advanced to take his
seat among the doctors was most exciting.
At the commencement of the proceedings the National
Anthem was sung with telling effect by the company pre-
sent. Then followed three rounds of the heartiest cheers
for the Queen. The other popular cries were, "Prince
Albert," "the Princess Royal and Prince rederiek,"
"the Duke of Cambridge," "the Emperor and Empress
of the French," " Sir Celia Campbell," " Gen. Inglis,"
"Lady Inglis."
The political demonstrations were fewer and feebler
than heretofore, the name of Lord Palmerston was re-
ceived, with mingled cheers and hissing, but it was
evident that his lordship' has many admirers among
the undergraduates. Lord Derby's name was received
with general cheering, and the name of Mr. Disraeli
brought down thunders of applause. Three groans
for "The Cabal" was heartily responded to. Mr.
Gladstone's name provoked mingled cheers and
hisses, and it was difficult to say which predominated.
Toe names of the Bishop of Oxford, Dr. Pusey, and
the Bishop of Ripon, were received with general cheer-
ing_. Among the popular miscellaneous cries were—
" General Inglis and Lady Inglis," Sam Slick," "The
Exeter crew," "The University eight."
The Senior Proctor's name provoked a volley of groans

We have to record the demise of Admiral Sir
Charles Ogle, Bart., Admiral of the Fleet, who died
on Wednesday, at a quarter-past one a.m., at Tun-
bridge Wells, after a short illness. The venerable
admiral, shortly after the setting in of the hot wea-
ther, first complained of illness, and removed to
Tunbridge Wells for change of air. While resident
there the unfavourable symptoms increased, and
at the hour above-named he died at the ripe age of
83 years. Sir Charles was the eldest son of sir
Chaloner Ogle, who was created a baronet for hie •
naval services, and who, like his deceased son, died
the senior admiral in the British navy, and fles•
ter, daughter and cc-heir of the Rev. pr.
Thomas, Bishop of Winchester. He was born
May 24, 1775, and when about thirteen years old
he entered the navy on board the Adventurer, 44,

coast of Africa. In Sept. 1791, he was made mid'
Shipman of the Alcide, 74, Capt. Sir A. S. Douglag•
and after he had obtained the rank of lieutenant is
1793, he eventually joined the Boyne, 98, bearin

operations against the French West India Island°,
he commanded a boat at the capture (under a hews/
fire of great guns and muske'ry) of two schoone
ars
lying at anchor with others, near Maran, M"
tinique, and otherwise distinguished himself ; he
assisted at the taking of Pigen Island, and was en'
trusted with the command of a party of Beanies

and remained on shore until after the surrender 01
Fort Bourbon. At the siege of Guadaloupe be
again commanded a division of seamen, and greatlf
distinguished himself by his gallant conduct at the
storming of Fort Fleur d'Epee. ILI May, 1794, he
was appointed acting-captain of the Assurance, 44.
After seeing some service on the Jamaica station,
he again repaired to the Mediterranean, where he
successively commanded the Meleager and Grey'
hound, each of 32 guns. In the latter ship ber,
effected the capture of a Genoese privateer of 3-`"
guns ; also of a Spanish armed polacca, and of other
vessels. In the Egyptienne he served during the
