THE WALLACE MONUMENT:

Yesterday, being the anniversary of the Battle of
Bannockburn, the foundation stone of the Wallace
Monument was laid upon the Abbey Craig,
near Stirling. The monument is to be an imitation
of a Scottish baronial tower, 200 feet high and 36
feet square. The site is one which commands a
magnificent view of the broad valley in which lies
the plain of Bannockburn and the castle rock of
Stirling, and those picturesque reaches of the
Forth among which Wallace gained his most
memorable victory. The procession was mar-
shalled in the King's-park at Stirling in pre-
sence of an immense concourse of spectators.
At 1 o'clock it started to the craig, which is at a
distance of two miles from the town. The appear-
ance it presented from the summit of the rock, as
it slowly approached along the winding road from
the narrow streets, was extremely interesting, the
gray uniforms of riflemen and the dark blue dresses
of the Artillery Corps contrasting with the scarlet
uniforms of Engineers and the quaint costumes of
Freemasons, Odd Fellows, Free Gardeners, and
Sons of St. Crispin. Before different civic bodies
were borne a number of interesting relics, including
the swords of Wallace, Robert Bruce, and Sir John
Graham. Sir Archibald Alison addressed the as-
semblage. In thanking, in the name of those pre-
sent, the building committee, he said that no such
gathering had mustered near that spot since the day
when the army which fought at Bannockburn as-
sembled under the Abbey Craig. Mr. Sheriff
Glassford Bell then thanked the subscribers to the
monument. Scotland and England now, he re-
marked, stand side by side. Their offspring should
remember, however, that they sprang of separate
mothers, though new

place in the Corn Exchange Hall, after " The
Memory of Wallace" had been proposed by Sir
Archibald Alison, and that of Bruce by Sheriff Bell,
Professor Blackie proposed the toast of "Scottish
Literature" in . a speech which was received with
much applause. Other toasts having been proposed

LA TV INTELLIGENCE—(2hes Day).

DIVORCE COURT.
(Before Sir C. Cresswell.)
POLLACK V. POLLACK, DEANE, AND MACNAMARA.

This was a suit instituted by the husband, for a divorce,.
on the ground of his wife's adultery with the co-respon-
dents who entered an appearance, but there was no appear-
ance on the part of the respondent. Macnamara pleaded
denial of the adultery, condonation, and collusion, and also,
that the petitioner and respondent were not married, and
Deane enterA similar pleas on the record, with the excep-
tion of the denial. of the marriage. The husband in hits
petition prayed for damages, which he laid at £2,000.
From the evidence adduced at the trial, it appeared that
the marriage was solemnised in the parish church of St.
Pancras in 1852, and that the parties cohabited until 1859,
when the petitioner alleged that he discovered his wife's
infidelity. The acts of adultery were stated to have been
committed at a house where the petitioner and his wife were
staying, in Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square, the Great
Western Hotel, and at Kew. Mr. Pollack was a sugar
refiner in extensive business at Konigsberg, and had one of
the most extensive establishments in Prussia. He had been
divorced from his first wife, as ho stated, at his
own instance, and had a son by that marriage,
who was 18 years of age. Ono of the witnesses stated
that she had intercourse with Mr. Macnamara, who had
been seen to go into her bed room, and that he had pro-
mised to marry her if she could obtain a divorce. There
was no evidence against Mr. Deane further than that be
bad occupied the same house in which Mr. Pollack and his
wife were residing, and the case against him was aban-
doned. The jury found that Mrs. Pollack had committed
adultery, but that there was no evidence to criminate Mr.
Macnamara.

The case stood over for the learned judge to consider him

decision.
Sir C. Cresswell now pronounced the decree nisi.

PATERSON v. BONAPARTE.

PARIS, Monday.—The appeal in the great cause
of Paterson v. Bonaparte came on today in the
Imperial Court, before Mr. President Devienne and
other judges. M. Chaix d'Est Ange, Procureur.
Ocireral, assisted by M. Charrial, Advocate-General,
appeared as " public ministers," and of course will
strain every nerve to maintain the decision of the
Court of the First Instance, which declares the
Illarriage of Jerome Bonaparte with Miss Paterson
invalid.

It will be remembered that in the court below
the public minister admitted the invalidity of all
the arbitrary attempts of Napoleon I. to set aside
the marriage, but insisted feebly that the court
had no jurisdiction, because the present Emperor's
family council—composed of MM. De Morny,
Troplong, &c.—had pronounced the mar-
riage void, although their decision, but a few
months old, was based upon the very grounds
hich he, the Government advocate, could not
in his conscience as a lawyer, speaking in the
face of men who knew the law, do otherwise than
repudiate. The Court of the First Instance,
adopting the views of the public minister, pro-
flounced against the marriage entirely upon the
strength of the close fitgee—namely, the judgment
of an extraordinary non-judicial, manifestly poli-
tical, and notoriously dependent and servile tri-
bunal.

The proceedings to-day were commenced by M.
terryer, who appeared for the appellants, reading
a technical document called " Conclusions,', in
Which the grounds of the appeal are set forth.
Down to the time when this note of his speech
terminates, M. Berryer had not come to his attack
upon the special grounds of the judgment of the
court
below. The case will not be concluded to-day ;
but it is thought that the court, contrary to the
d which
usual (an by the way, very extraordinary) custom,
is to adjourn a part-heard cause for a week,
will go on to-morrow:

After long experience, deep researches Into chymistry,
by the aid of costly machinery, I have discovered the means
whereby oats, beans, and oilcake may be entirely dispensed
with In the feeding of horses and cattle. I have now invented
a compound meal, composed of locust beans, Indian corn,
linseed, &c., at £l6 per ton, which is equal in value to £24
worth of oats, beans, or any other feeding material in the
market. Two quarts of this compound meal, weighing 31bs.,
at the cost of 5d.. mixed with a peck of chopped hay, is a feed
for a draught horse, and superior in every respect to three
quarterns of oats, costing 7d. 14 barrels weigh net 1 ton 1

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

DOUBTFUL CASE OF FELONY.—Louisa Morgan, a well-
dressed female, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with
attempting to steal a gold watch, of the value of £lO, the
rronertv of Mr. Edward Watson, plumber, of Great Ryder-
street.

Mr. Watson said—At one o'clock this morning I was at
the end of Jermyn-street, when the prisoner made a snatch
at this watch, but the chain fortunately breaking the watch
remained in my pocket. I lost about four inches of my
chain, but detained the prisoner.
Prisoner—l never saw the gentleman before, and never
had his watch or chain in my possession. I had £2 in my
pocket when I came out. My husband is employed at
Pickford's.

Edward Brown, police constable, said I found a sovereign
on the prisoner, and she was tipsy. The prosecutor had also
been drinking.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—l don't think if she did it, she did it with.
the intention of stealing the watch.
Prisoner—l have been here once before, but it was for
deserting my child, and my child died in prison. lam
living with my husband at 47, Gloucester-street, Queen's-
square. I never did it.
Constable—l have seen the prisoner and another woman
often about.

Prisoner—No, you have not. The inspector told me that
the prosecutor said the other female had his piece of chain.
Mr. Tyrwhitt —I will take your own recognisance to ap-
pear here on Saturday.

THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The arrivals of English wheat to this morning's market
were limited. A few good samples were disposed of at
Monday's decline in the quotations of 2s. per quarter, but
all other kinds were quite neglected, and nominal in value.
We were well supplied with foreign wheat ex granary,
and sales progressed slowly in all descriptions at the late
dcolin.e of is. to 2s. per quarter.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request at Mon-
day's currency.
Barley attracted very little attention, and, in some in-
stances, the quotations ruled in favour of buyers.
Fine malt was held at previous rates ; but the value of
other kinds had a drooping tendency.
The demand for oats was in a sluggish state, yet prices
were fairly supported.
Beans and peas were in limited supply, and the trans-
actions in them were, for the most part, at previous rates.
Flour was much neglected, yet, compared with Monday,
very little change took place in the quotations.

The necessity for distrusting all accounts of in-
jury to crops in their early stages has again been exempli-
fied by the present prospects of the French vintage. In
March and April last it was announced that in. all the prin-
cipal districts injury from frost had been sustained which
left no possibility of recovery, and we are now assured that
in all parts of France the vineyards, with some very feW
exceptions, present the most favourable appearance. In-
deed, it is said that "for the last ten years they have not
looked finer."

Advices from CoVentz state that the Prussian
Government is occupied with putting the defences

Mentz, Cologne, &c., more in accord with the im-

inspection is to take place by the most distinguished

ON TAUE and FALSE SPERMATORMICEA;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual llypochrondriasis.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
Is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.
" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have dilated so long .upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' Is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

The public are not generally aware that by an
Act passed in 1854 the necessity of affixing s. stamp and
cancelling it in a most precise form was imposed upon all
bills drawn abroad on unstamped paper and negotiated in
England. The Act enacts that the stamp so affixed shall
be cancelled by the person negotiating or passing away the
bill writing thereon his name or the name of his firm, and
the date of the day and year on which he shall so write the
same ; and goes on to say, that no person shall take or re-
ceive from any other person any such bill, or recover thereon,
or make the same available fur any purpose whatever, un-
less at the time of taking the bill the stamp should be can-
celled by the person first negotiating the bill in this country.
In an action yesterday at the Guildhall the defence raised
was that the stamp had not been cancelled in the strict for-
mal way indicated by the statute, at the moment of its first
transfer in England, by writing the name of the first per-
son negotiating the bill in this country across it. In the
particular case the parties satisfied the jury that this had
been done, and the verdict in the action was given against
the acceptors, who defended; but had it not been done it is
understood that the defendants, although the acceptors of
the bill, would have succeeded by these means in escaping
the discharge of their obligation.
