LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, June 7.
BATTY v. MELILLO.
The plaintiff in this case is the proprietor of Astley's
.Amphitheatre, andfoorn

joint salary of 51. per week, and subject to a penalty of 501.
upon breach of any of the articles of the agreement. The
defendant performed for some time in London and was
then required by the plaintiff to go to an establishment
of the plaintiff's at Peebles, in Scotland, and to perform
there, and received a written notice to that effect,
but the defendant refused to go ; and upon the plain-
tiff refusing to employ him any more in London brought
an action in the County Court for a week's salary,
but was nonsuited, on the ground that as he hid re-
fused to perform at the plaintiff's establishment at Pee-
bles he had broken his engagement. The plaintiff, to
avoid further litigation in respect of claims of salary,
then commenced the present action. To the declaration

sufficient certainty that the performances which the

Peebles were equestrian performances, or whether on
the stage or in the ring •
, or that the defendant had been
required to perform within the three months; or that a
reasonable time had elapsed after giving the notice for
the defendant and his wife to join the establishment at
Peebles; or any promise by the defendant for himself
and wife to join an establishment of the plaintiff. The
plaintiff thereupon joined in the demurrer, and contended
that thew matters were all alleged with sufficiency in the
declaration.
The case was argued by Mr. Prentice, for the plaintiff;
and by Mr. Cleasby, for the defendant.
The Court took time to consider its judgment.

METROI'OLITAN COMMISSIONEIS OF SEW. .ER S.—
Yesterday :afternoon general meeting of Commissioners
was held et the office, Greek-street; Viscount Ebriagton,
liftPt, presided. The works on the business. paper recom-
mended by the committee for the. sanction of
.the court
amounted to 2,103/. 4s. 11d., exclusive of theordinary pay-
ment of salaries, &c. In a few cases the parties. to be bene-
fited by the works were ordered to pay certain sums towards
their execution. An order for a temporary allowance of 3s.
a week to Jane Gee (the widow of John Gee, who lost his
life in the Kenilworth-street sewer some months since) was
then agreed to, and, after some ordinary business, the Court
I adjourned.

-ATbirt is rattling her rigging down at Portsmouth, and
1
preparing fur 'her cruise to Lisbon and Gibraltar. It is
reported that Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence will be &mom-
'. inualed by a distinguished party. The name of Prince
George of Cambridge, Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, the Prince of Leiningen, are mentioned as likely to
go out in the royal yacht. She is to sail about the
20th instant for Lisbon.
THE TRIAL CRUISE OF THE SCREW-FRIGATE TER-
NATAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE ROYAL CRUISE.—The royal yacht Victoria and
MAGI/VT.—no Termagant, 24, screw-steam-frigate,
under the temporary command of Mr. Charles Brown,
the master-attendant of Portsmouth yard, and the
Stromboli steam-sloop, Commander Lod A. Beau-
cleric, returned to Spithead on Thursday evening.
Both vessels came in through the. Needles passage under
sail, the Termagant having her screw hoisted up, and
the Stromboli with her floats off her Paddle-wheels. In
running down to Spithead, the Termagant spared the
Stromboli her course, and Was obliged to' brace her
main and mizentopaails bye, and to yaw in her
course to keep astern of her. The Termagant has
turned 'out a very capable vessel under sail. On
an average, on most . point', except before the
wind, she had a vast superiority over the St-on-
boli (which is said to sail well for a steamer)
beating her about two knots and a half per hour ; and
when before the wind she beat the steamer nearly as
much. Dead on a wind in a fresh breez'., with-
out at all pressing the ship with canvas, under double-
rteftd topsails, topgallantsaili, and courses, the Terma-
gant made nine and a halt knots ; off the wind, under
the same sails, she made ten and a half. From her
mainmast being so far aft, she carries a turn and a half
weather helm, and she takes a long time paying off when
wearing, but stays well, and when before the wind steers
admirably. She went into harbour yesterday morning,
and it is supposed that, although her engines are
much in the way of effecting it, that her mainmast will
be moved further forward, when, there is no doubt,
she will bo like all vessels of Mr. Wright's build, a good

Dragon steam-frigate, Captain W. H. Hall, has been
returning all her stores at Plymouth; but yesterday re-
ceived back those that are serviceable. She will be paid
off to-day.
PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—The Russian frigate Pallas
did not attempt to come up to Spithead last night, but
stood off to the eastward, and has not been seen since.
The Sealark, 8, was put in commission to-day by
Commander E. S. Sotheby, for service on the coast of
Africa.

The Birkenhead iron steam troop-frigate, Commander
J. A. Stevens, is ready for sea, and sails this evening
for Plymouth, with supernumeraries for the Albion.
PLYMOUTH, JUNE 6.--Her_Majesty's packet brig Ex-
press, 6, Lieutenant Commander W. Lory, having had
her copper examined and repaired, was taken out of No.
5 dock on Thursday.
Her Majesty's iron-steamer Greenock has been placed
in No. 5 dock.

The Prometheus steamer sailed yesterday with mails
for the coast of Africa.

The basin dock, built in the reign of William and
Mary, and lately filled in with shingle, is ordered to be
cleared out, and the dock is to be made 30 feet wider.
Wind, S.W., strong breeze.
CHATHAM, JUNE 7.—The Horatio screw-frigate, as
soon as the trial of her machinery is completed, is to
come to Chatham to be fitted for sea.

The Drake na►al lighter, Blankley master, has ar-
rived from Portsmouth, with stores for this yard, and
as soon as she has discharged her cargo will load for
Portsmouth and Plymouth; and the Rochester na►al
lighter, Sudweeks master, has sailed with stores for
Portsmouth.

The Duck, Savage master, is alongside the dock-
yard loading stores for Portsmouth yard, and the
Goodwill, Pledge master, is loading stores for Sheer-
ness yard.
The Nankin, 50 guns, fitting in dock, will be com-
pleted in her fitments by the end of the month, when
she will be pat out and placed in this division of the
ordinary.

SA NOVEL. 0 0 D.
" The author, we are convinced, is young, otherwise we could
hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high standard of morality and religion, and by a laudable love
of the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan-
guage in which he expresses his feelings, sentiments, and opinions
on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in
which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
on matters that are the prima mobilia of the actions which cha-
racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Man-
nerves, and Smythes."—Observer.
" • Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it eontains passages of exceed-
ing beauty, and is written in pure and forcible language, with great
good taste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en-
gaging novels which the present season has produced. Of the cha-
racter of Amelia Ross we have already spoken, and the extract we
have given above is the surest voucher of the truth of what we have
said. The other ladies who play conspicuons parts In the tale are
Florence Howard, an intellectual beauty; Jessie Gordon, a wild and
impulsive genius, passionately fond of music and poetry; and Julia
Maitland, the noblest and best of them all."—Morning Post.
