IRELAND.

The Marquis or LONDONDERRY, in explaining a
statement all-g,d to have he •n male on the subjcet of
•the; agitation t,f certain Presbyterian ministers in the
north of Irel snd for a reduction of rents, took
occasion to state that, in his opinion, the Earl cf
Clarendon was the best Lord-Lieutenant that had
ever exercised authority in Ireland. Recently several
outrages had been committed in the north of Ireland
which had been excited by the Presbyterian ministers,
and ho wished t> know whether the Government could
not intim Ate to the Synod of Ulster, that if this
course of conduct were continued the Royal
bounty would be withheld from these agitating
Prelbyt Iriik ministers. He had recetvel a
letter from a Presbyterian minister, calling him to ac-
count for what be had stated in the House, which was
a. high breach of privilege.
The Marq iis of LANSDOWNE thought that it
would not be politically expedient to draw the attention
of the law officers of the Crown to the conduct of these
ministers, and he knew of no method of punishing such
conduct 2,3 that complained of by the Noble Marquis,
excepting by a criminal prosecution. _ _

Tile Earl of MOUNTCASIIEL knew several of the
Presbyterian clergy of the north of Ireland, and from
what h., knew of them he believed that the great ma-
jority of them were averse to agitation. A more loyal
or more well-disposed body of men did not exist than
the Presbyterian clergy of the north of Ireland.
Lord BROUII HAM considered that the letter written
to the Noble Marquis was a great encroachment
upon the privileges of that House. The,letter called upon
the Noble Marquis, in the name of the Tenants' Right
Association, to prove or to retract his assertions. No
doubt this body was a most respectable and a most
loyal body—more loyal now than it had been in 1798.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY explained, and
the subject dropped.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF QUE EIV'S BENCH, Feb. 22.
(Sittings at Nisi Pride, at Guildhall, before Mr. Justice
COLERIDGF. and a Special Jury.)
BARKER V. GIBSON.

• (Continued from our Afternoon Edition.)
Sir F. THESIGER addressed the jury, and contended
that the detendant was not liable, beyond a sum of 311.
which he had paid into Court.
The Learned JUDGE summed up.
The jury retired, and after an absence of some time in
the consideration of the evidence, returned a verdict for
the plaintiff, damages 81/. 12s. 2d., being the items in-
curred in costs in the unsuccessful actions brought in the
plaintiff's name.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Feb 22.
(Nisi Priva Sittings at Guildhall, before the LORD CHIEF

BARON and a Special Jury.)
RENNIE AND ANOTHER V. CLERK.

This was an action by Sir John Rennie and Mr. Rem-
ington to recover from the defendant, as one of the pro-
♦isional directors of the Direct East and West Junction
Railway, 2,7001., the Wince of a❑ amount claimed for
their services in surveying the line.
Mr. Bovill appeared for the plaintiffs, and the Attor-
ney-General, with Mr. Phipson, for the defendant.

In the month of September, 1845, the plaintiffs were
appointed engineers, and in that capacity surveyed the
intended line of railway, commencing at Kidd,rrnin-
ster and terminating at Hereford. It, appeared that be-
fore the defendant, who is a silk manufacture:. at Mac-
clesfield, assented to become a provisional director, Mr.
M'Lean and the plaintiff Remington were appointed
engineers; and a resolution was come to by the directors
that the solicitors, engineer, aid secretary, should enter
into the usual bond of indemnity to tie directors. Sub-
sequently Mr. M•Lean declined to act as engineer be-
cause he had been previously retained in that capacity
on the South Staffordshire line, and Sir John Rennie
was substituted and consented to act. It was admitted
that the plaintiffs performed the work for which they
claimed compensation, and it was not denied that the
charges were reasonable; but it was alleged that the
plaintiffs undertook to perform the engineering work
upon the condition that they should look for remunera-
tion to the funds of the company, and not to the provi-
sional directors personally.
The case occupied the Court during the day, and at
the conclusion the Lord Chief Baron left it to the jury
to say whether the plaintiffs, or either of them, when
they agreed to act as engineers, were to be paid in the
ordinary way or from the funds of the company.
The jury, after a lengthened deliberation, returned a
verdict for the defendant.
London, England, 1850-02-23

GERMANY.

The Aix la Chapelle Gazette publishes the follow-
ing telegraphic dispatch from Berlin, dated the 20th :
—" The President of the Council of Ministers read
to-day in the First Chamber a royal message, inviting
the Members of the two Chambers to proceed on the
26th to the palace, where, in consequence of an indis-
position of the KING, the President of the Council will
pronounce the closing of the session."
A deputation of the Prussian Chamber of Deputies
waited a few days ago on the Ministers, to question
them respecting the negotiations with Denmark. The
Ministers stated that Prussia entertained the sincere
desire of arriving at a satisfactory conclusion, but that
Denmark, so long as she should be supported by
some of the great powers, would persist in demanding
conditions disadvantageous to Germany.
The First Chamber of Bavaria on the 16th adopted
the Bill on the press presented by the Government,
but with considerable amendments.

RUSSIA, AUSTRIA, AND TURKEY.
VIENNA, FEB. 16.—The Lloyd of this day pub-
lishes an article from the Turkish State Gazette of
Jan. 21, relative to the extradition question, from
which we make the following extract :—" The Court
of Russia has chosen from am ing the proposals sub-
mitted to it by the Sublime Porte that which sug-
gests
,the banishment of the fugitives belonging to
Russia from the Ottoman Empire. As the carrying
out of this plan will be extremely easy to the Sub-
lime Porte, it has been determined that those of the
principal fugitives now in Schumla who are Russian
subjects shall depart under a special commission
for Varna, from whence they shall be taken by
some appointed steamer to Malta. Once in Malta,
it will be left to each individual to go to whatever
place he may choose, the Ottoman states excepted.
As this understanding has removed every obstacle
between the Sublime Porte and Russia, and a perfect
concord between the two Powers, so important to all,
is continued and consolidated, the relations with the
Russian Embassy have been again renewed. With
the Imperial Court of Austria there is a perfect un-
derstanding on the fundamental question ; but as
this is not the case in regard to some minor details,
there has been a delay in the renewal of the relations
with that Court. These, it is confidently hoped, will
soon be obviated, and the much-desired relations be
re-commenced."
London, England, 1850-02-23

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 17th have arrived.
On the 16th cannon were fired, the national flag
was displayed, and there was an illumination of the
Ministerial hotels and public buildings, as also of
many private houses, as a sign of rejoicing at her
MAJESTY'S interesting position.
On the 17th, being Sunday, no journals appeared,
and the Stock Exchange was not open, but the Threes
were at 295:.
London, England, 1850-02-23

PORTUGAL.

Accounts have been received from Lisbon to the
15th. The Duke of TERCEIRA has refused to accept
the office of Lord High Chamberlain, vacant by the
dismissal of SALDANHA. Almost all the officers in
the army declared against the policy of the Count DD
THOMAR, who is, however, still supported by the
QUEEN.

The Thames Plate Glass Company, on Thursday,
declared a dividend of four per cent. The affairs cf the
company are improving.

ceive that the clause relating to the alteration of docu- '
ments such as that she complained of made it felony,
and she therefore trusted the magistrate would grant
a warrant against the person of whom she com-
plained.
Mr. Noirrom asked her what evidence she had that
the documents se referred to had been altered as she
described ?
The applicant replied that Mr. Cobbet, and a wit-
ness who was with him at the time, examined the
document in question, and were ready to prove that
it had been altered to suit the purpose of the keeper
of the prison. She then adverted to the circum-
stance of her having attended the assizes at Guildford
last week with a view to plead her husband's cause,
but that the judge declined to hear her in the capa-
city of ,counsel for him, otherwise she would have es-
tablished her Cause. She added that if the warrant
was granted her husband would be enabled to attend
this court, to pursue the charge, and that a habeas
would be procured for that purpose.
Mi. NORTON, in reply to the application, advised
Mrs. Cobbett, as the sessions commenced on Monday,
next, to go before the grand jury at the Central Cri-
minal Court, and make her complaint there ; and that
it wotjki save the trouble and expense of procuring a
habeas for her husband's attendance at this court.
The applicant said that, as she was determined
not to let the matter rest—her husband being a per-
secuted man—she should adopt the magistrate's ad-
vice, and not fail in presenting herself before the
grand jury. She then thanked the magistrate and
withdrew.

AQUATICS.
ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA.
_ .

COWES, WEDNESDAY.-I'ho first of the annual scenes
of contests by the yachts of this squadron took place
yesterday for a cup giros by his Royal Highness Prince
Albert, the entries for which were restricted to vessels
of a small class (under 140 tons). The course was the
Queen's Course, from Cowes down round a boat moored
off the Nab Light, then back westward to a 4ssel off
Yarmouth, and back to Cowes, about 42 miles in all.
Three to start, or no race. The yachts entered were
the Mirage, 126 tons, belonging to the Marquis of Or-
monde; the Destiny, of 107 tons, belonging to W. Wills,
E,q.; and the Fernande, of 125 tons, the property of
Major Martyn.
At 23 minutes past eleven the first gun was fired from
the Squadron-house, and in five minutes after the second,
when the yachts heaved anchor. They were much later
in arriving at Cowes than was expected, and when they
passed the Squadron-house the time stood for the Fer-
nando 3.45. the Mirage 4.15, and the Destiny 4.19, this
vessel having lost her fore topsail.
Shortly after the yachts passed the Fairy came over
from East Cowes, having on board her Majesty and his
Royal Highness Prince Albert ; they steamed down to
westward, to take a glance at the contending craft.
The Fernande was the victor, her time being 8.49, and
for the Mirage 9.3. The Destiny was not timed, as she
had not got round the vessel at Yarmouth.

A NOVEL.
" The author, we are convinced. is young; otherwise we could
harlly see displayed such fresh and enthutiastic sympathy in be-
half of his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired
by a high staadard of morality and religion, ana by a laudable love
of the purest sort of fame. We gather this front 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 theetory are dropped, containing most eloquent essays
en matters that are the,prima mobilla of the actions which chit-
acterise nature's nobility. The. writer evidently belongs, though he
has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraells, Man-
nerves, and Smythes."—Observer.
" Silwood' is no ordinary work ; it contains 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 glay conspicuous 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 beat of them all."—Morning Post,

CRICKET.

THE OFFICERS OF THE LIFE GUARDS v. THE
GENTLEMEN OF THE CHARTER-HOUSE.
This exciting match was played yesterday at Lords,
and upon the occasion there was a large assemblage of
fashionables, the fairer portion of whom derived much
additional gratification from the beautiful pei furmances
of the band belonging to the regiment. The score stood
thus at the conclusion of the day:—
London, England, 1850-08-15

her Majesty's Government to which the regulation of
prisons may be entrusted, and especially in connexion
with the recommendation for the establishment of dis-
trict prisons.
19. That the Committee concurs with some of the
most experienced witnesses they have examined, in
the opinion that a great majority of convicted pri-
soners are open to the same good motives and good
impulses which influence other human beings, and
therefore that a system of encouragement to good con-
duct, and endeavours to inspire feelings of self-respect,
self-reliance, and hopefulness for the future, which
have been tried in some of our largest establishments,
ought to be adopted, so far as it is practicable, with-
out impairing the penal and deterring character
essential to any system of imprisonment.
20. That in regard to some of the details of dis-
cipline which have been brought before them, this
Committee recommends that the means of lighting
every cell, except cells for an infraction of prison
rules, ought to be provided in every prison, and that
no prisoner ought to he left in darkness for more than
a maximum time which can be required for rest, viz.,
eight hours.
21. That the diet should invariably be kept as low
as is consistent with the health of the prisoners.
22. That no more artificial warmth should be in-
troduced in prison cells than is absolutely requisite
for the preservation of health.
23. That while it is desirable to prevent the con-
sequences arising' from the mutual recognition of
prisoners, this Committee does not think it. expe-
dient to recommend the adoption of any general rule
in that regard.
24. That under any system of discipline the best
practicable arrangements should be made for the in-
struction of all prisoners in their religious and moral

duties.
25. That provision ought to be made in every pri-
son for enforcing sentences of imprisonment with
hard labour. _

26. That the discipline in respect of prisoners con-
fined for debt requires amendment.
27. That on the interesting question of what system
of prison discipline is best adapted to juvenile
offenders, this Committee has not received sufficient
evidence to enable them to offer distinct recommenda-
tions ; but they are of opinion that a larger amount
of industrial training and reformatory discipline may
advantageously be adopted in their case than in that
of ordinary criminals.—July 29, 1850.

FROM BUCKINGHAM PALACE.

Notwithstanding the unfavourable aspect of the
weather, the route from Buckingham Palace to the
Houses of Parliament was lined at an early hour by
crowds anxious to obtain a view of her Majesty on her
progress to prorogue Parliament. Shortly after eleven
o'clock a strong body of police took up their position
along the whole route, in order to keep the line clear,
in which duty they were assisted by a squadron of the lit
Life Guards, posted at intervals. Along Parliament-street
and Whitehall the windows and balconies were crowded
with groups of well-dressed ladies. Stand's also were
erected at various points, the balconies of the Horse-
guarde were filled, and we observed that even the roof
of Kng Henry the Seventh's Chapel was covered with
anxious eight-seers. In the Park the crowd was very
great, though not so numerous as we have
seen it on former occasions, but consisting
chiefly of well-dressed and respectebie people.
Round the Palace-gates the crowd assembled iu grt at
numbers. eat a quarter before two o'clock her Majesty
left the Palace, and the royal cortege took its way down
St. JAme,.'d-walk, through the Hone Guards, and down
Whiteballaind Parliament-street, to the Houses of Par-
liament. The cortege consitted of six royal carriages,
each drawn by six horses, containing the officers of
the ilousehOd and the Ladies in Waiting, and the
royal state carriage, drawn by eight horses, escorted
by the Gentlemen Pensioner!, and by a squa-
dron of the 2d Lite Guards. In the carriage with her
31,jesty and Prince Albert 'were seated the Duchess o'
Sutherland, Mistress of the R 'bes, and the Duke ot Nor-
folk, I'daster of the Horse. Her Majesty luAed remark-
ably well. Her dress was of silver lac-' over white sawn;
