acion.

Mr. Sergeant Parry, for the plaintiff, matended con_
tra, and called the daughter's mother, but she was un
able to carry the service beyond the facts stated above.
Mr. Baron Bramwell said that if the plaintiff could
not carry it further there was no case for the jury.
Mr. Sergeant Parry contended at much length that
the evidence showed an implied service, at the time of
the seduction, sufficient to warrant the case going to the
jury. There was ample evidence to go to the jury on
the counts for expense, &c., incurred by loss of the
daughter-in-law's service.
Mr. Baron Bramwell ruled otherwise, and
Mr. Sergeant Parry submitted to a nonsuit.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.)
IN RE ANDREWS.

•
This bankrupt was described as a drug vendor, of
the Strand, and to-day was appointed for his last exami-
nation.

On a previous occasion a lengthened examination took
place, it being alleged that the bankrupt had, just befcre
his bankruptcy, consigned a large portion of goods,
thought to be to the extent of 14,0001. or 15,0001.
(the debts being about 19,000/.) to America, and of
which he gave no satisfactory account.
Mr. Bagley now appeared for the assignees, and
after an examination of witnesses, which did not throw
any light upon the matter, the examination was
adjourned sine die, the bankrupt not having filed any
accounts, and did hot attend the present meeting.
Mr. Commissioner Holroyd and Mr. Commissioner
Fonblauque were engaged at private meetings up tairs.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

THAMES.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY BY A JUVENILE.—James Demy,
a boy about 14 years of age, was brought before Mr.
Yardley, charged with the following daring robbery.
Mr. James Watson, a pawnbroker, of No. 86, High-
street, Poplar, stated that yesterday afternoon a bundle
of silk handkerchiefs and five pairs of trousers were
stolen from the interior of the shop, and the thief got
away unperceived. Some time after wards he received
information from a neighbour that another robbery was
to be committed, and he went to the opposite side of the
way and concealed himself behind a neighbour's door.
Soon afterwards he saw the prisoner enter the shop,
remove five pairs of trousers from a shelf and ran away
with them. He immediately pursued the prisoner and
soon gained upon him. The prisoner then dropped the
trousers and increased his speed, but he was overtaken
and secured. He removed the trousers, which were
worth 355.

Police-sergeant Yeoman, 3 K, stated that the pri
Boner was given into his custody, and he said that he
picked up the trousers.
A police-constable of the H division said the prisoner
was an " associate," but of whom or of what institution
he did not state. It bas become the practice lately for
policemen to state that a well-known associate of thieves
is " an associate."

The prisoner, in defence, said he was not an " asso
elate," and did not steal the trousers. They were thrown
down at his feet.

.Mr. Nathan repeated his evidence, and swore most
positively to the prisoner.
Mr. Yardley committed the prisoner for trial.

THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA IN
MILAN.

A letter from Milan of the 22d, in the Cortstitit-
tionnel, says :—" The peasants have returned to
their homes, and the Court will now find itself face
to face with the nobility of the country and with
the rich bourgeoisie of Milan. It was well known
in high quarters that petty plots and hostilities
had been prepared beforehand against the Court.
What is positive is that the Emperor, after having
severely lectured one of the principal chiefs of the
nobility of Milan on the inconsistency and puerile
opposition of some patricians, decided that there
should be no balls at court. At the same time, his
Majesty declared that having come more particu-
larly to examine into the real wants of the country,
he should abstain from appearing at the tradesmen's
ball at the Casino, a ball about which there had
been some hesitation felt in inviting their Majesties.
These two little coups d'etat have produced a cer-
tain effect. The nobility and the burgesses regret
the lesson which they wished to give the Govern-
ment, and as to the people, properly so called, they
merely laugh at the whole affair, as being com-
pletely disinterested in the matter. With regard
to the ball by the municipality given at La Scala,
it came off last night. Considering the immense
number of invitations given, and which extended
to many of the lower classes of society, this fete
might have been transformed into an excellent
ground for conciliation. Uufortunately, such was
not the case ; and the affair passed off in the coldest
manner imaginable. The Emperor and Empress
were not by any means as warmly greeted as at
the theatrical representation of La Scala, and ap-
peared to take but a very slight degree of inte-
rest in the entertainment. After looking, with an
eye evidently careless, not to say wearied, on a
little divertissement given by the corps de ballet
and the first danseuse La Pocchini, their Majesties,
followed by the Archdukes Ferdin taid Maximilian
and Charles Louis and the Duke of Bavaria, took
one turn through the salle and then retired. I
cannot make use of the coventional phrase and say
that after the departure of their Majesties the
dancing was resumed with great spirit and kept
up until a late hour in the morning ; for, in point
of fact, no one danced at all for the whole evening,
and at about one o'clock the guests began to retire,
with the exception of those who remained for the
supper which was promised."

SWITZERLAND.

The Bund publishes an order of the day just
issued to the federal army of Switzerland by Gen.
Dufour, and dated from head-quarters at Zurich.
After expressing his satisfaction at their conduct
since they have been called under arms, the gene-
ral concludes as follows ;--." Federal Soldiers—
You are on the point of returning to your homes ;
my sincere good wishes will accompany you thither
and I hope that you will retain a remembrance of
your old commander, who was ready to share with
you all the hazards of war. Enjoy in your families
that repose which you have so well merited ; but
let your repose be that of all brave men. Never
separate yourselves from your arms, and be always
ready to take them up and again rush to the fron-
tier if an enemy should approach it. It is thus
that you will preserve the esteem which is now felt
for you, and secure to our happy Switzerland con-
sideration, peace, and prosperity."

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

(Sittings at Nisi Prius at Guildhall, before Mr. Baron
Bramwell and a Common Jury.)
RANDALL ♦. LIICK.-SUDUCTION.

This was an action brooght by the plaintiff to recover
damages off the dcf,ndant, for the seduction of his step-
daughter, Emma Staggail, 19 years of age, whereby she
had lost her service and incurred great expense.
It appeared from the plaintiffs evidence that be kept
the Acorn public-house at Rotherhithe, and the defendant
was a contractor at the docks close by. The defendant
had been intimate with Mrs. Randall and her family for
many years,- and had known her daughter since she was
about 12 years of age. He visited tho plaintiffs house,
and was occasionally waited on by the daughter-in-law,
who acted as bar-maid. On the 27th Aug. last she left The
plaintiff's house, and was afterwards traced to Eritb,
where she was found living with the defendant as man
and wife, under the name of Barnes. When discovered
there by her father-in-law, she exclaimed, on seeing
him, "Oh, God ! father, is that you? I'll go with you
anywhere." She appeared most anxious to return home
with him, and did so on the 16th October. Sbe was
then found to be in a very nervous state, and afterwards
twice attempted to commit suicide. A medical man
had to be called in, and attended her several days. In
the plaintiff's cross-examination he stated that his
daughter-in-law was paid no regular wages, nor was
there any agreement between them as to services. Sh•
had clothes found her, with board, lodging, and spend-
ing money, which amounted to more than the usual
sum, &c., paid to a bar mail. She acted as such in his
house, and he was much inconvenienced by her leaving,
•
and had to employ a bar maid in consequence.
Mr. Sergeant Shee, who appeared for the defendant,
contended the plaintiff had not shown such a servitude
on the part of the daughter-in-law, and such a loss of
service on his part, as entitled him to recover in this
London, England, 1857-01-27

PROBABLE PEACE WITH PERSIA.

We believe we may state that official information
has reached our Government of the probability of
the Court of Teheran agreeing to our demands.
The Turkish Minister at that capital has sent a
despatch to his Government, informing them that,
having heard of the fall of Bushire, the Persian
Government " decided" to make peace upon the
English terms.

On its reaching Constantinople, this intelligence
was immediately forwarded, by telegraph, by Lord
Stratford, and its authenticity may he relied on.
We may therefore hope for a speedy settlement
of the Persian difficulty.
At the same time we need hardly point out, after
our recent experience in the theory and practice of
peace-making, that there is a sufficient difference
between a determination to make peace and the
actual accomplishment of it to warrant us in not
being over sanguine. _

Ttie Court of Persia heard of our expedition, and
immediately afterward 3 of its success. On finding
the force to be less than was anticipated, and that
it is not yet advancing into the country, the Per-
sian mind may change. We do not anticipate this
—we only point it out. We ourselves think that
the capture of Bushire will probably be the begin-
ning and the end of the Persian war.—Morning
Post.

Poems. By Emmeline Hiniman. Longman.

This is another book of poems, from the pen of a
lady. It contains many graceful thoughts pleas-
ingly expressed, but it seldom rises far above me-
diocrity. The writer has not been very ambitious
in her choice of subjects, and from not attempting
too much has seldom failed. The poems are ele-
vate 1 in their tone, and breathe a thoughtful all
aspiring spirit. The following verses are from a
poem called " Early Death," and afford a favour-
able specimen of the writer's powers.
" She cometh down from the green hill tops—
From the golden slopes of wheat ;
From the leafy depth of the summer copse,
Where blossom and herb are sweet.
From the nooks in tne meadows, dewy and cool,
Where winds the clear dark river;
Where the willows shadow the glassy pool,
And the rushes bend and quiver.
She watcheth no more the steps of the dawn
Pass over the mountain's brow;
She standeth no more on the household lawn,
Made rich with the sunset's glow.
She turneth away from the home whose eaves

The vine with-the rose surroundeth ;
And all the sweet haunts of her youth she leaves,
Where the voice of joy resoundeth.
Slow and silent the maid departs,
For the downward way is steep;
And the friends of her childhood, with aching hearts,
Press round her steps and weep.
And fainter comes, from the distant bowers,
The sound of the woodbird's lay;
Ever more faint the scent of flowers,
And the smile of the summer day."

Fairy Gold for Young and Old. Edited by H.
F. Chorley. G. Routledge.
This little volume consists of eighteen tales,
translated from the French of Savinien Lapointe.
They are pleasant fairy tales for little folks, occa-
sionally somewhat fantastic, but attractive from
their novelty. Their very titles are sufficient to
excite the curiosity and awaken the interest of

juvenile readers such as " The Awful Little
Finger," "The Man who Lost his Memory," "Good-
Mau Gold-drop," &c. One or two of the original
tales have been omitted by the editor as unlikely
to suit English twites, but otherwise they have
been very little altered. The volume is prettily
bound, and adorned with numerous illustrations.

Drawing-room Charades. By C. Warren Adams,
Esq. Newby.
This is an amusing little volume, adapted for
amateur performers, by one evidently conversant
with their difficulties. It is lively and sparkling,
the words are not too difficult, and the parts evenly
divided. The subjects aro not all original, as "The
Sleeping Beauty ' and " Cinderella," of famous
memory, are among them, but they are old friends
with new faces, and the rest of the sketches possess
novelty as well as variety. All who are desirous
of enjoying this pleasant pastime during the
winter season should avail themselves of the ad-
vice and assistance which this little volume will
afford them.

(Before Mr. Commixaioner Fonblanque.)
IN BR GODDARD.—THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK.

This was a meeting for choice of assignees in the case
of this bankrupt, who was described as of London-wall,
Old Jewry, Fenchurch street, and Alderegate, provision
mordant. The bankrupt is one of the unfortunate share-
holders of the Royal British Bank, and came before the
court in consequence of proceedings taken against him
in respect of his liabilities on account of the bank. From
the preliminary statement by Mr. J. D. Fowell, the
accountant, of Basinghall-street, it appears that the trade
debts only amount to 160/. ; and the assets are—good
debts, 100/. ; cash at banker's, 7501. ; stock, &c., 9001-
Bankrupt bad held 12 old and 24 new shares, and had
been called on by the official manager for 751. per share,
and by the official assignee for 501. per share. A long
argument ensued as to the right of a judgment creditor
against the bank to prove ; but his Honour ultimately
adjourned it, and said that no doubt the question would
be settled in the superior courts at Westminster. As-
signees were chosen.

ALLEGED BREACH 07 CONTRACT

Mr. Doyle was counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr.
Overend conducted the defence.
This was an action brought by the plaintiff, Dr.
Lard, against the defendants, the General Apothecaries
Company (which had been established for the purpose
of supplying the public witk pure drugs), for a breach of
contract. The defendantilenied having made the con-
tract as alleged. It appeared that in September last
the defendants announced that they were about to pub-
lish 15,000 copies of a circular, which they called atten-
tion to as offering important advantages to advertisers
who insert their advertisements therein. The plaintiff
at this time being about to publish a work, offered
the defendants 51. for inserting his advertisement, upon
which they replied by letter, requesting him to forward
his advertisement as soon as convenient. This he
accordingly did, but notwithstanding the arrangement
the plaintiff's advertisement did not appear, but the
circular contained an advertisement about a similar work
which had been published by another person. The
plaintiff, in consequence of this alleged breach of con-
tract, had brought this action.
Mr. Overend, on behalf of the defendants, contended
that there was no case to go to the jury, and that, there-
fore, thy plaintiff must be nonsuited. There was no
breach of contract, as no contract existed. The plaintiff
had offered to insert his advertisement in circulars of
the defendants, and they had merely requested him to
send it to them, which even did not amount to an
acceptance, as it was not compulsory on a nenpaper or
other advertising medium to insert an adveßi cement
which might be prejudicial to tlieir interests, particularly
when no money had passed between the parties.
Mr. Baron Bramwell was of opinion that the objection
was good, as there had avid Gritty been no contract be-
tween the parties. The plaint iff must either be nonsuited,
or the verdict must pass for t be defendants.
The verdict was then entered for the defendants.

LLANELLY AND LLANDILO.

In the account of the opening of this line for traffic
which appeared in The Sun of yesterday it was stated
that the line had been completed, within the engineer's
estimate of 8,0001. per mile. Mr. .1. Samuel, the engi-
neer states that the cost of the line, including land,
works, stations, permanent way, sidings, law, engineer-
ing, and Parliamentary expenses, the electric telegraph,
and, in fact, every item from its commencement to its
opening for traffic, has not exceeded, 6,11001. per mile.
Considering that the line, which is seven miles in long*
embraces 180,000 cubic yards of excavations, two over
and four under road bridges, two parish road bridges,
nine river bridges, one of which, over the river Tony, is
of 150 feet clear span, and that all the bridges are either
of wrought iron, cast iron, or masonry, and that the peik
manent way is laid iu a substantial manner, with rails
of 701 b. to the yard, he thinks it must be admit`ed to
be one of the cheapest lines ever made in this country.
With regard to the Vale of Towy line, which will con-
nect LlandiloLlandovery, and form the first link in the
main line from Manclie,,ter to Milford, he states that
the works on it are now in an advanced state, and will
be completed for less than 5,500/. per mile.

L ;I_lON, TUESDAY, JANUARY 27, 1887.

Her MAJESTY'S Ministers have a great deal
before them requiring explanation. This expla-
nation will have to be given either voluntarily or
involuntarily almost immediately upon the meet-

ing of Parliament. Voluntarily through the
rather vague and shadowy medium of the Speech
from the Throne. Involuntarily through • the
replies extorted from the occupants of the Trea-
sury benches, in discussion. Upon several sub-
jects the country will have the meaning
"out," and that, moresver, at once—in spite
of every attempt which may be made in
the way of Parliamentary slur or of Official
prevarication. The People will insist, for
example, upon eliciting as speedily as possible
from the Cabinet the precise nature of the Mini-
sterial intentions as to the Income Tax. It
remains to be understood how far the nation is
to be relieved from that incubus. Whether it is
to be relieved from it at all ; or, supposing that
at least to be decided upon, whether it is to be
materially diminished, or more equitably distri-
buted. It remains to be seen, again, what are
the precise Legal Reforms to be brought this
session Ministerially under the consideration of
the Imperial Legislature ? What the extent
and character of the new Sanitary Improve
ments ? What the tendency or direction of
any fresh incentives to be given to the great cause
of Educational Advancement ? What the pro-
posed fiscal innovations? What the projected
financial modifications All these problems remain
to be solved by Her MAJESTY'S Ministers, to the
satisfactior. of the country, and to the satisfaction
of the Parliament. All these things will require
to be explained with as little delay as is at all
possible, by one or other of the leading member,
of Lord PALMERSTON'S Administration. And
with these things a great many others hardly one
jot less difficult, -less imminent, or less complicated.

SCOTT V. LANGFIELD, ALIAS MONTEFIORE. THE LATE
EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF F. lEGERY AT THE MANSION
HOUSE.

This case, which has attract ed a good deal of " public
attenti.m,” came before M.r. istice Crompton, on an ap
plication on the part of the di .ifencla lit for his discharge
from Whitecross-street Priso a. It, will be recollected
that Mr. Justice Coleridge otc Jere d the discharge at the
suit of a gentleman named Hew At, who arrested the
defendant as he was about le,Avir ig the Mansion-house,
where he was charged wjth :forgery on the CApe of
Good Hope Bank. After the arre st on a judge's order live
detainers were lodged against I ,irn, and as many ,-um•
mouses were nsade returnable to -day by adjournment, in
all of which the question was raised whether the defend-
ant intended to abf-cnrd.
Mr. Eadie appeared AS coma el to oppose the applica-
tion, and read an afEi :avit fro; 11 Mr. Roy, the solicitor
for the London and Weattnins te; ? Bank, setting forth the
arrest, by Scott, the detective,. .at Gravesend, and the
several examinations before the Lord Mayor. lie
alleged that the pretence of an intended marriage was
not to be credited, and that t he defendant would leave
the country. He expected 89079 further information

The Gazzetta del Popolo of Turin says :—" The
judicial inquiry into the affair of the 29th of June
at Genoa is closed, and its results fill three enor-
mous volumes. The number of prisoners under trial
is 39, of whom about 20 are defaulters. Their case

Custom-house offic,rs at Arona at the moment he
was about to cross the lake in a boat. The cap-
ture of this letter led to the arrest of several per-
sons at Turin and Genoa, and to the banishment
of some refugees. Another letter was directed to
A. M., a member of the committee of action, and
contained orders proving the existence of a secret
government. But Maazini's article entitle]
Situazione' has seriously compromised the prison-
ers; had it not been for that, there would have
been no legal proofs of high treason, and the
whole affair might have ended in a few condom-

DENMARK.
A Copenhagen letter, in the ,Spectateur, says
" The hostile attitude assumed by the Diets of
the two German Duchi©s of Holstein and Lauen-
burg towards Denmark has produced a remark-
able impression on public opinion in this capital.
The moment that the public has considered the
general organisation of the monarchy to be menaced
by Germany, the Danish national spirit has been
roused to support the present ministry, which is
looked upon as the energetic representative of na-
tional ideas. Nobody believes hero in the possi-
bility of an arnicabl.) arrangement on the Holstein
question with the two great German power s.
More notes may doubtless b 3 written, but Vie
government of Copenhagen is dnided, I am tw-
sured, on awaiting with calm the decisions of the
Frankfort Diet, bef.)re which the qnestion will to
dtfiuiti rely brought by P ..:11.133_a and AttAi.i3•"

The Madrid journals of the 19th have arrived,
but do not contain any news of politicAl interest,
fa expectation of a visit from the Empress of the
French, the inhabitants of Arteaga, the place in
which her Majesty's chateau is situated, had on
the 14th erected a triumphal arch bearing the
inscription. " Arteaga to the Empress Eugenie,
its protectress," and all the authorities of the
neighbouring towns and villages had assembled ;
but finding that her Majesty did not arrive, the
authorities pattoek of a splendid banquet at the
house of the French Consul of Gaernica.
