JUDGMENT-IN RE BROOK'S WILL.

His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—l am of opinion
that the respondent must pay the petitioner his costs. I
have looked into the cases on the subject, and I find it will
not be necessary for me to remit the account to be taxed.
I think £2.5 should be allowed as costs, instead of making
an order sending the account to be taxed.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day).

MAR LBOROUGH-STREET.

STABBING A HUSBAND.—Sarah Wiley was charged be-
fore Mr. Beadon with stabbing her husband, Edwin Wiley,
a booteloser, of 6, Crown-street, Soho.

The prosecutor said the prisoner was his wife, and they
had been married about a year. On Sunday morning they
woke together, and she got out of bed and said, " You -,
I'll have your heart out," at the same time pointing to a
spot of blood on her dress, which was hanging up. They
had words on the previous night, when she got a kettle of
boiling water to throw over him, and the blood was on her
dress through her nose bleeding by accident, and not by a
blow. After she had exclaimed " I'll have your heart
out," she seized a knife from his work seat, and he then
jumped out of bed, and she followed him to the other end
of the room. She then cut up some of his cicthes, but he
did not go near her, as he was afraid of her. She then
came up to him with the knife and dress in her hands, and
said, "Look at that," pointing to the spot of blood, and
"I'll have your blood for it," and she then stabbed him in
the wrist as he put up his arm to defend himself, and he
then sent for a constable, and while his mother was gone
she stabbed him again in the muscle of the arm, making
two deliberate stabs at him (the knife was produced, and
was a sharply-pointed one, used by boot closers),
repeating one after the other. The doctor said at
the Charing-cross Hospital that they were serious stabs.
Ho then ran out and the constable took the prisoner into
custody.

In answer to a question, the prosecutor said he had
never struck his wife at all.

Prisoner said hPr husband had struck her, but that was
denied, and although she said her neck was marked none
were apparent.

Robert Wiley proved seeing the prisoner strike the pro-
secutor (his brother) twice with a knife in the arm. He
distinctly saw the knife enter his brother's arm and the
blood flow. His brother did not strike the prisoner, but
merely held up his arm to ward off the blows.
In answer to a question, the witness, who was about 18
years of age, said he slept with his mother, and his mar-
ried brother and his wife slept in the same room.
Mr. Beadon remanded the priooncr for a week, and told
him to procure a certificate from the hospital.
The prisoner was then remanded.

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S

" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

CLEARANCE OF THE PRISONS.

THE QUEEN'S PRISON.
(REGISTRAR WINSLOW'S COURT.)

The examination of debtors incarcerated in the
Queen's Prison was resumed on Saturday Mr.
Registrar Winslow went through twelve cases,
some of which occupied a considerable time.
(MR. REGISTRAR HIGGINS' COURT.)

The case of a barrister, who had been in prison
for the last eight years under a writ of outlawry,
was argued at some length before Mr. Registrar
Higgins. The managing clerk to the firm of
Rogerson and Ford appeared on the part of one
of the detaining creditors, and raised a preliminary
objection to the jurisdiction of the rogistrar in the
matter until the prisoner was purged of his out-
lawry. He cited various authorities to show that
an outlaw could not be heard in any court of jus-
tice either as plaintiff or defendant, no matter what
grounds of action or defence he might have.
The prisoner contended that though he had been
an outlaw, the fact of his person having been
seized, he was purged of his outlawry by the very
circumstances of his being in prison on the writ of
ad legato n. He also referred to a decision of Re-
gistrar Miller in the Whitecross-street Prison, in
hich he held that outlawry was no reason why a
debtor in prison should not be adjudicated a
bankrupt.
The Registrar said he should reserve his decision.
In the course of the day two prisoners were dis-
charged by Mr. Registrar Higgins, who disposed of
18 cases in all.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

To-day's market was but moderately supplied with
foreign stock, the general quality of which was by no
means first-rate. On the whole, the demand for [it ruled
steady, at previous rates.

The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing
districts were only moderate for the time of year, both as
to number and quality. Prime Scots, crosses, &c., com-
manded a steady sale at full prices; but it must be under-
stood that 5s 2d per 81bs was an extreme value. Inferior
stock moved off slowly at last week's currency.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire, we received 2,400 short-horns, &c.; from other parts
of England, 4,000 var'ous breeds ; from Scotland, 80
and, 750 oxen and heifers.
Scots and crosses ; and from Irel

The show of sheep was again moderate, and the quality
of most breeds was inferior. Downs 'and half-breds com-
manded a steady sale at full quotations. Others, ise, the
mutton trade was in a sluggish state on former terms. The
best Downs were worth 5s 8d per Blbs. Calves—the supply
of which was small—changed hands steadily at Thursday's
reduced rates. The top figure was 5s 2d per Blbs.
Owing to the large arrivals up to Newgate and Leaden-
hall, the pork trade was in a sluggish state, and prices
were a shade lower.

LONDON, MONDAY, NOV. 18, 1861.

In the game of beggar my neighbour the Em-
peror of the FRENCH has contrived to beggar
himself ; it was a consummation foreseen by
many ; but so much mystery has involved the
French finance, that few, probably, if any, knew
the precise state of the evil, till the EMPEROR,
put his accounts again into the hands of M.
ACHILLE FouLD, Even he has not painted the
case in the darkest colours, if the statement of a
well-informed correspondent in a contemporary be
true, that the excess of expenditure over revenue
during the ten years of the extinction of free dis-
cussion will have burdened the country, by the time
all is settled, with an addition of two hundred
millions sterling to the national debt. The Free
States will probably not incur a heavier charge in
the attempt to vanquish the South, by two or three
years of war carried on in the most extravagant
style. It seems that Imperialism has cost the
country on the average about twenty nzillions per
annum more than its representatives had agreed to.
Naturally the result has been what we are prepared
to learn, that it is almost impossible to find
money to meet the demands for the current
dividends. Looking at the whole affair,
it makes us almost angry with ourselves
that we were in such haste to build ship for ship
with the Imperial man of war; we seem to feel
that we might have been more sure of the result
that he would soon become an Imperial man of
straw ; and yet our instinct was right, for it is
just the men of straw who have nothing to lose
by a desperate act. If they happen to be also men
of more muscle, or
to be better armed than their
peaceful neighbours, the men of straw are apt to
become men of desperation. We must be thank-
ful, therefore, that severely as we have had to
ambition in ship'..uildino., it is
pay for Imperial
cheap*r than to have to pay for the ambition of
invasion:

How little the form of government seems to
have to do with its goodness, unless indeed we
may indulge the vanity of pronouncing constitu-
tionalism to have proved its merits in our own
cluntry—
We might add in three or four more
Powers also of Europe. The constitutionalism
which his Royal Highness pronounced to be on
its trial, has seen at least three other forms of
government tried and found wanting of late
years. The American, for instance, the favourite
one of the Tories, has broken down. There the
ballot-box end the mob with its leaders were
supreme ; but candid observers will confess that
it was not the mob and the ballot which
created the mischief; but, the incompatibility bc-
tween aristocracy with slavery as its domestic
institution, and freedom with that unwisely adopted
pet of the old world aristocracy, protection, as its
h
eadmaid. Liberty ought to be the mistress of the
Republican household. ; Mr. LINCOLN'S SAIAH

MARTINIQUE.

Accounts from Martinique and Gradaloupe to the
26th ult. have arrived. In the former colony the
Governor had dissolved the Council-General on
account of serious dissensions among its members;
and that act had created considerable sensation.
An °official return shows that in tl.e month of Sep-
tember an increase took place in the exports of
sugar and coffee, and a decline in those of rum.
Lwo fires occurred on the same day in a plantation
called La Vapour, one doing considerable damsge :
there was no doubt that they were lighted up by
incendiaries. In both Martinique and Guadaloupe
decrees had been issued doing away with the
formalities heretofore required to be observed to
obtain passports to leave the colonies, the formali-
ties being three advertisements in newspapers of the
intended departure, or the deposit of a sum of
money as security for creditors.

THE AUSTRIAN NAVY.

A letter from Trieste, dated the 12th inst., gives
some interesting details respecting the Austrian
squadron of evolution now assembled in the
Adriatic.

The squadron, which has been formed silently,
consists of 50 vessels, of which 3-1 are steamers and
16 sailing vessels. In the former category there
are some fast screw line-of-battle ships ; among
others the Kaiser, 91 guns ; the Radetzky, Danube,
and Adria, frigates, of 31 guns ; the Archduke Fre-
derick, the Dandolo, and Elizabeth, of 22 guns ;
10 first class gunboats, armed with 5 rifled cannon
each, and provided with machines of 230-horse
power.

The squadron is placed under the superior com-
mand of Archduke Maximilian, Lord High Admi-
ral of Austria, whose second in command is Rear-
Admiral Bourguignon. The crews are chiefly
Sclaves, Dalmatians, or Germans.

Independently of the organisation of this squad-
ron the Austrian Government is actually construct-
ing 10 ships of war, among which are two cuirassed
frigates, and six sailing vessels are being trans.
formed into steamers. Great works are under
construction at Pole.

THE MEXICAN EXPEDITION.

Under the head of " Latest Intelligence," La
Patric publishes the following:—
" The steam transport L'Aube, coming from
Toulon, entered the port of Mers-el-Kebir at 2
p.m. on the 16th inst., where the Massena steam
line of battle ship had arrived the evening before.
" The embarkation of the troops destined to form
part of the Mexican expedition commenced imme-
diately. These troops, which; had arrived from
different ports of Algeria at Oran, of which Mers-
el-kKbir is the port, comprise a battalion of the 2d
Regiment of Zouaves, a mounted squadron of the
2d Regiment of Chasseurs d'Afrique, detachments
of Engineers, Artillery, &c.

" The Massena and L'Aube were were to sail on
the 17th for La Martinique.
Ti_e steam corvette Berthollet, from Rochefort,
on her way to La Martinique to join the squadron
under Rer-Admiral Julien de la Graviere, put into
Lisbon en the 15th."

THE WESTIIIINSTEI? MUI?DER.

Our readers will remember that a prisoner named
William Maloney was convicted at the September
session of the Central Criminal Court of the murder
of his wife by stabbing her in the throat with a
knife, and he was left for execution, and only re-
spited a very short period before the day fixed for
carrying the sentence into effect, The Home Se-
cretary, it appeared, respited the prisoner in conse-
quence of the jury recommending him to mercy on
the ground that they believed the act was not pre-
meditated, and that the deed was committed under
the influence of some sudden provocation and quar-
rel; and as the respite was not for any specified
period, but during her Majesty's pleasure, there was
of course no chance of the capital punishment being
inflicted, and it would seem that considerable diffi-
culty has been created with the authorities at the
Home-office as to the course that should be pursued
in the matter. It will be seen that a very consider-
able delay has already taken place with regard to
the disposal of the prisoner—much longer than usual
—and it appears that a day or two ago Mr. Jonas,
the Governor of Newgate, went to the Home-office
for the purpose of ascertaining what was intended
to be (lane, and he was informed that no decision
had yet been arrivel at. The culprit himself still
remains in Newgate, and he continues to assert, as
he did from the first, that he is perfectly innocent
of the charge of murder; and that his wife, in the
course of a quarrel that took place between them,
suddenly snatched the knife from the table where
they were at dinner, and inflicted the mortal injury
upon herself. This statement of the prisoner, it
will be remembered, was very strongly borne out
by the evidence of the surgeon who was examined
at the trial, who stated that the wound was un-
doubtedly of a suicidal character, or one self-in-
flicted, and was quite as likely to have been so
caused as by the act of another person. The case is
altogether one of a very peculiar character, and an
impression appears to prevail that it is not improba-
ble that her Majesty's clemency will be extended
to the prisoner, and ho will receiye a free pardon. I

SPORTING NOTES.

The meeting at Liverpool last week was a success so far
as the fields were concerned; but the questionable running
of several of th 3 horses engaged, and the "milking" of
others, will not soon be forgotten. How Mr. Merry could
send Sir William to Liverpool and keep the horse in bet •
ting up to within an hour of the race demands some expla •
nation. When an M.P. and a member of the Jockey Club
can do such things, how can the smaller and perhaps more
honourable class of owners be found fault with for follow-
ing the example ? Prince of Denmark is another that the
handicapper ought not to forget, and the same remark ap-
plies to Bantam. Mr. Frail has provided four days' excel-
lent sport for this week if the frost does not interfere with
the meeting. The Nursery Handicap has an excellent
entry, but I can see nothing likely to interfere with the
success of My Mary. Gabrielle d'Estrees ought to win the
Gold Cup, as she meets Lady Ripon on 101 b. better terms
than in the Liverpool Cup. Gibraltar or Lord of the Manor
ought to carry off the Corporation Plate. Flirtation ap-
pears the best on paper for the Shrewsbury Cup. Queen
of Spain should have no difficulty in disposing of whatever
may oppose her in the Salopian Stakes.

THE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA.

The following are extracts from the letter of the
special correspondent of the limes, dated Washing-
ton, Nov. 2 ;

TILE GREAT FLOTILLA,

If the awful tempest which has been raging over
land and sea here has extended itself to the lati-
tudes in which the flotilla is labouring towards its
" working point, the Confederates may have to strike
a medal for their armada, and they will, at any rate,
have fair reason to declare " °nitwit Deus et /testes
dissipantur." This is a moment of great anxiety.
The North has sent out a considerable fleet to strike
at a centre of rebellion, and if the waves defeat it
there will be deep dejection, if not despair, through
' the land. They say the expedition is bound
to Charleston. From the moment Beauregard
began to throw up batteries against Fort Sumter
there was a clear casus belli against the people
of that city, and any cause for the ex-
pedition now which did not exist then is not to be
readily discovered and vindicated. The city is the
nursing mother of Secession, and it has not an
agreeable reputation with us, because of its peculiar
regulations respecting British sailors with a rete
mucosum. But, nevertheless, without being un-
neutral, I should be sorry to see Charleston treated
as Arlington Mills or the houses in front of the
Federal lines here have been dealt with. It is, in
spite of mosquitoes, dust, sand, and heat, a pleasant
and hospitable place, except for coloured people,
although not easily accessible by a hostile force from
the seaside. Our news here must come from the
South by way of Fortress Monroe and flags of truce
from Norfolk, or roundabout by Louisville. Never
will electric wire on this continent have throbbed
with bigger words for good or evil. But, after all
said, it will not be concerning Armageddon itself,
nor will it be of such an issue to the human race as
was involved in th, fate of Armada the Great and
first. A victory of 1,..5e kind which can be achieved
by the expedition will do more good than harm ; it
will enable the North to be magnanimous ; it wilt

show the South that they have soft places, not far
from the vitals, where they can bo hit pretty hard.
It will afford a basis for negotiators and mediators
to work upon.
London, England, 1861-11-20

THE OFFER OF ARBITRATION.

The notion of asking or accepting the Emperor
of Russia to do some intercession is dying away ;
it was, indeed, the offspring of the belief that
the Czar meant his letter to be taken as an
offer of good-natured arbitration in the quarrel.
Now we hear of a sort of deputation going to
Europe to agitate public opinion, principally in
England, and to stir up the depths in the political,
commercial, and religious world respecting the
troubles and the future of the United States. The
path of any such pilgrims will be smoothed, no
doubt, by a victory, but there will also be a thorn
growing in it which must prove painful and embar-
rassing to their progress.

THE SLAVES OF THE SOUTH.

No proposition could be more repugnant to North-
ern men as that of receiving the four millions of
slaves of the South among their own people, and it
is trite to remark that the antagonism between the
lower classes of whites and free black labourers
in the North is very bitter, and would produce
great disorders if the latter element was largely
augmented. Nowhere did I ever hear the negro
spoken of with such hatred and contempt as
by the poor whites near the Canadian frontiers.
The driver of a hack at Niagara told me, " If some
of us had our wills we'd send the cusses to - over
the falls to-morrow," and such facitis descensus
Averni would no doubt be favourably viewed by the
noble citizens who treated Mr. Asa Pratt to a ride
on a rail the other day because he uttered Seces•
monist sentiments up North. The idea of the Union
which bound the early Republic together seems to
have lost its power wherever slavery has prepared
a nidus in which to hatch the doctrines of State
rights into Secession. Look, for instance, at Ken-
tucky. There all the old men are for the Union, but
the young man, the fighting classes, are for Seces-
sion ; so much so that, notwithstanding the action
of the Legislature in favour of the Union, the Fe-
deralists can only retain their hold in the State by
pouring in regiments from Ohio, Indiana, and Illi-
nois, and General Sherman frankly admitted it
would require 200,000 men to secure the State for
the North.
London, England, 1861-11-20

SWITZERLAND.

A letter from Berne, in the Independance says :
" The affair of the valley of Dappes is not so near
a solution as appears to be believed in Paris. It
follows the same path and takes exactly the same
turn as that of Ville-la-Grand, that is to say, the
reports of the Swiss agents contradict completely
the version transmitted to the Imperial Go-
vernment by the administrative and military autho-
rities of the departments of the Jura, and also the
explanations given at Berne by the Marquis de
Turgot. M. Kern writes from Paris, as was
expected after the language of the Moniteur, that
the French Government denies in the most formal
manner that there eras on the part of France any
violation of territory. It appears, says M. Thou-
venel, from the explanations given by the gene-
ral commanding the 7th military division to
the Minister of War, that measures were only
taken on the frontier to prevent a projected
arrest, contrary to the established state of things
on the disputed territory, and that it is not true
that the French gendarmes or soldiers violated any
portion of the territory of Vaud. The affirmation
of General Faucheur, adds the Minister, is as cate-
gorical as possible in that respect, and the General
says that he cannot understand why the Swiss
authorities should have made any complaints. In
addition to these explanations of M. Thouvenel to
M. Kern, the Ambassador of France gave to the
President of the Confederation the assurance that
neither the hamlet of Les Cressonnieres, nor any
other point in the valley of Dappes, had been occu-
pied by the French armed force, the latter not
having gone beyond the disputed territory. The
Marquis de Target added that the measures of pre-
caution adopted by France would be continued as
long as the situation should remain the same, but
that the Imperial Government was ready to enter
into negociations."
London, England, 1861-11-20

BLACK AND WHITE BLOOD.

If the Northern States bo anxious to emancipate
the slaves of the South, I am forced to believe it is
not from any good will to the African race, or any
recognition of its members as human beings of their
own kind. In fact, it would be a problem for these
unhappy, involuntary immigrants—if they had
intellect for it—to determine whether their social
ostracism and the cruel prejudice against them in
the North would not be far less bearable than their
chattel condition in the South. Just take this case
from a paper of to-day :
" The people of Cleveland have been somewhat excited
over a can of iimalgamativa RJch occurred there last week.

A coloured man, attached to Dan Rice's circus, won the
affections of a white girl named Emily Fuller, and, obtain
ing a certificate in the usual way, married her. The girl,
after the marriage, returned to her father's house, and her
dusky lord, believing that her parents prevented her join-
ing him, sued out a writ of habeas corpus in 003 of the
Cleveland courts; but it appearing, on an inN%,htigation of
the case, that she was not restrained in any way of her
liberty, the case was dismissed. This over, her father ob-
tained a warrant for the arrest of the justice who performed
the marriage, under an act passed last winter by the Ohio
Legislature, entitled, 'An Act to Prevent the Amalgama-
tion of the White and Coloured Races.' This act, besides
making it unlawful for any person possessing a visible ad-
mixture of African blood to intermarry with any person of
pnro white blood, makes any person convicted of solemnis-
ing such a marriage liable to a fine of 100 dols, or imprison-
ment for a term not exceeding three months, at the discre-
tion of the court. The case is still under advisement."
