THE LAST CHURVII-RATE ORIEV.A.NCE.

At the Preston Police-court, on Saturday, the Rev. 11.
Thrower, Catholic priest, loodplumpton, was summoned,
at the instance of Mr. Thomas Carlisle, churchwarden in
Woodplumpton, for 6d., being his proportion of church
rates levied in that parish. Mr. Carlisle stated that
the church rate had been laid unanimously at a meet-
ing of the parishioners held in the parish church on
the 12th of March. On that occasion the estimate for re-
pairs of the church was read over, and no objection was
taken to any of the items. Notice of the meeting
was given on the door of the parish church on Sunday
before the meeting was called. At the meeting one gentle.
man proposed that there should be a voluntary rate, but
this proposal was withdrawn. On being cross-examined
by Mr. Edelston, who appeared for Mr. Thrower, Mr.
Carlisle said he was the only acting churchwarden. Mr.
Birley had been appointed churchwarden along with him,
but he had not been sworn, and •therefore Mr. Bicker-
staff, his former colleague, continued in office until his
successor was properly appointed. He did not know
what the entry of 3s. 6d. was for, paid to the vicar of St.
Michael's. Thomas Preston said he had demanded the
rate from the defendant on the Bth of ApriL The de-
fendant stated that the rate was a voluntary one, and ob-
jected to pay it on conFcientious grounds. Mr. Edelston
submitted that no case had been made out. Information
had only been laid by one churchwarden, and that, he
contended, was not sufficient. He also objected to the
way the meeting had been called, notice having only
been posted on the parish church, instead of upon all the
chapels in Woodplumpton. He would also draw atten-
tion to the estimate, which had no mark showing that
it was such, and was not signed by the churchwardens.
But, although the estimate was considered to be formally
prepared, he contended that it was a bad one. The visi-
tation fees, he submitted, were not proper items, as was
also the case with its register and copying fees. He would
also be prepared to shew that the payment to the vicar of St.
Michael's was not a prober item ; and if any one of these
objections were sustained, then the rate was bad. Mr. Moore
said the magistrates must be satisfied that the objections
made by the defendant were bond fide, and not merely for
the purpose of delay. If Mr. Edelston's objections were
considered to be bond fide the magistrates were ousted of
jurisdiction, and could not go on with the case. The magis-
trates decided that as the validity of the rate was disputed,
the court had no jurisdiction. A similar case against Mr. J.
Wrigley, Woodplumpton, was then gone into, and disposed
of in a similar manner. Mr. Moore, solicitor, stated that,
as at present advised, he was prepared to carry the cases
into the ecclesiastical courts.

COMMERCIAL INTZLLIGENCI,

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
The gratifying news from Abyssinia has more than
eclipsed the effect produced upon the English Funds
by the attempt to assassinate the Duke of Edinburgh,
particularly as the later telegrams report that he is
well. Long before the Stock Exchange was
opened, speculative business was done in Consols at
94k, but there are large limits to all above 94,
and consequently the present price is 94 to 94.
ajOtherwise tho markets are all firm, but not mach
tered as regards prices. The fortnightly settlement
this morning, and it will he concluded on
Yeti n esd ay. The supply of stock is rather large, and
rates of continuation are mtimportin.t.
The tendencies of the Discount Market are towards
ease, but rates are still quoted at 2 per cent., though
exceptional transactions have taken place at

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely now de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires' or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
nab] by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth ghat aro loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

There were 40 eight charges heard this morning
by Mr. Benson. A majority of thoin wore " drunk
and incapable," others were for committing wilful
damage and assaults. Among the offenders were
three militia men in uniform. The militia have
lately swelled the number of offenders to a con-
siderable extent. Two of the militia were dis-
charged with a reprimand, and a third who had
made use of very bad language was fined
.2s. Gd.
Ile asked the magistrate to send to the barracks
for the money, which Mr. Benson declined, and he
was locked up.

HOSPITAL BELIEF.—The number of medical and
surgical cases relieved at the lioyal Free Hospital, Gray'b_
Mu-road, during the week ending April 23, was 3,122, of
whom 1,113 were now cases.
THE Moos s.—We still continue to receive excel-
lent accounts of the grouse prospects from the north-
western districts of Scotland. Beyond Loch Rannoch to
the north-west, and beyond the Grampians in the same
direction, the accounts are most favourable, not only as to
the healthy condition of the birds, but as to their quantity.
To the east and north .oast accounts arc mostly unsatisfac-
tory as to quantity, but there is no disease now anywhere.

phantiy has he painted the mere smooth, solid,
shining woodwork of the piece of furniture sup'
porting the basil pot—as well as the watering pot of
opalized glass, already mentioned by us as stand-
ing in front of it —together with the reflection of
that opalized glAss watering pot in the shining sur-
face of the cabinet—that one is almost fain to lift up
and carry away the watering pot, and then expect
to see the reflection of it disappear from the side.
of the cabinet These, however wonderful, are
merely subordinate parts, it should be remembered,
of a work of art, especially commanding our admi-
ration for its pathos, its pas3ion, and its vital and
perennial beauty. It is a work pre-eminently
worthy of one of the greatest painters of the age--
an artist who ought years ago to have been what
he is not to this day--a Royal Academician. It
would now at last be a graceful, and, at the sario
time, a striedy just and reasonable act on the part
of the Royal Academy to elect him—if only by
right of this one picture, and without requiring bun
to pass through the pre:iminary or intermediate
grade of Associate—R.A. by acclamation.

THAMES.

There were 40 night charges heard this morning
by Mr. Benson. A majority of them were " drunk
and incapable," others were for committing wilful
damage and assaults. Among the offeuders were
three militia men iu uniform. Tha militia have
lately swelled the number of offenders to a con-
siderable extent. Two of the militia were dis-
charged with a reprimand, and a third who had
made use of very bad language was fined 2s. Gd.
lie asked the magistrate to send to the barracks
for the money, which Mr. Benson declined, and he
was locked up.

IIosPITAL BELIEF.—The number of medical and
surgical cases relieved at the Royal Free Hospital, Gray's-
inn-road, during the week ending April 25, was 3,122, of
whom 1,113 were new cases.

TnE Moons.—We still continue to receive excel-
lent accounts of the grouse prospects from the north-
western districts of Scotland. Beyond Loch Rannoch to
the north-west, and beyond the Grampians in the same
direction, the accounts are most favourable, not only as to
the healthy condition of the birds, but as to their quantity.
To the east and north-east accounts aro mostly unsatisfac-
tory as to quantity, but there is no disease now anywhere.
