LAMBETH ELECTION.

RETIREMENT OF MR. DOULTON.

A meeting of Mr. Doulton's friends was held at the
Horns, Kennington, this day, at half-past one o'clock,
Mr. Winterbotham in the chair, when.. upon the proposal
of Mr. Robert Taylor, seconded by Mr. Ellington, it was
agreed to advise Mr. Doulton to retire ; to which Mr.
Doulton, under all the circumstances connected with the
contest, agreed to accede. His resignation will, therefore,
we are assured, be announced to-morrow.

The Swedish war corvette Lagerbjelke, Capt. In
de Beton, arrived at Cherbourg two days ago from Gibraltar
on the way to Carlscrona.
The Minister of the Interior of the Grand Duchy
of Baden has just informed the Archbishop of Friburg that
the Government has authorised the meeting of the Catholic
Associations of Germany, which is this year to take place
at Friburg.

ILLNESS OF THE BISHOP OF ROCHESTER.—We
deeply regret to learn that the Lord Bishop of Rochester,
who we recently stated had become convalescent, has had
a relapse ; and that the illness of the right rev. prelate has
been of so serious a character as to excite the fears of his
family and that large circle of friends so warmly attached
to him. Prayers for his recovery were offered up in Chelms-
ford Church on Palm Sunday, and the clergy throughout
the diocese will rejoice to learn that the venerable prelate,
who has presided over them with firmness but fatherly
affection, is likely to be restored to them, as the last account
from the palace is that his lordship is much better.—Chelms-
ford Chronicle of Good Friday.
CONSOLIDATION OF STATUTES.—The present Go-
vernment, through their law officers, have brought in bills
for consolidating the statute law of England and Ireland in
the case of criminal writings, malicious injuries, coinage
offences, personation, forgery, offences against the person,
and larceny. As a matter of course, these bills will have to
be renewed on the assembling of the new Parliament at the
end of May or the commencement of June.
NEW ACT ON EVIDENCE BY COMMISSION.—AiI
Act of Parliament has just been printed to provide for tak-
ing evidence in suits and proceedings. pending before tri-
bunals in her Majesty's dominions in places out of the
jurisdiction of such tribunals. The superior courts at West-
minster and Dublin, the Court of Session in Scotland, and

pending before any court or judge having autho-
rity under this Act. The expenses of witnesses are to be
paid, and for false evidence the penalty is perjury. The
witnesses may refuse to criminate themselves or to produce
documents. The Lord Chancellor, with the assistance of
the judges, is to make rules to carry out the provisions of
the Acts

A case of interest to persons who give public per-
formances or exhibitions in the country was three days ago
submitted to the Tribunal of Commerce of Valenciennes.
The director of a travelling company of comedians in whose
district the town is comprised claimed from Mlle. Anguinet,
who gave sleight of hand performances in the summer at
the Pre Catelan at Paris, the fifth of the receipts obtained
for performances given by her at Valenciennes in March
last ; and he insisted that royal ordinances of 1814, 1815,
and 1824 clearly justified the pretension. But Mlle. An-
guinet contended that by a proper interpretation of the ordi-
nances in question, a director could only claim the fifth of
the receipts of a public perforniance given in a town where
his company was actually performing—and she showed
that when she had given her performances he was not in the
town, and the theatre was closed. The tribunal, taking that
view of the case, rejected the action: and ordered the direc-
tor to pay Mlle. Anguinet Mfr. damages for having sub-
jected her to inconvenience by causing two nights' receipts
of her_performances to be seized.
