half of his son, who was one of their travellers. The present
demand was for 421., the amount of a deficiency in his account.
Proof was adduced that books were at various times sent to the
son at Birmingham, &c., by railway, by his ditection. One of
the jurymen, however, held out from giving a verdict, on the
ground that there was no proof that the books ever reached him.

'the SECONDARY said, if a party ordered goods to be sent by a
par, icular convey ance. and it was proved they had been, that was
sufficient. Tradesmen would otherwise have immense difficulty
in proving actual delivery.

The juror, howcver, would not give way, and a witness was
called to prove that the son bad admitted he was a defaulter to
the amount claimed.

The SECONDARY said, that the additional evidence was unneces.
sary, but iT the last proof had stood singly, it would have bound
defendant, as his guarantee, as had been decided last week, in an
action against the Guarantee Society, that the admission was
sufficient.—Verdict for 421.

RAILWAY RESOLUTIONS.

Lord BROUGHAM then moved his third resolution
(which was postponed yesterday evening) in reference to Rail.
way Bills.
The Earl of WICKLOW was anxious to see some provi-
sion, such as the N ,ble. Lord proposed to introduce, in tefe •
rence to Railway Bills, but he thought that there would be
some bad effects attending it which he could not. assent to.
The Duke of RICHMOND .said they must insert a clause
in the Bill. saying that the parties should pay the costs.
Lord BROUGHAM said they had no power of levying
money, but they had the power to compel the parties to pay
the costs, if they thought the case was one in which they
ought to do so. He had no objection, as most of the members
of the Committee were not present, to postpone the resolution
until Monday. It was postponed accordingly. The Noble
and Learned Lord then proposed the fourth resolution, That
in every railway, road, or canal Bill, after the present session,
there shall, in the first session in which it is brought in. be
proved in the Committee thereon, two-thirds in number of as-
sents of landowners on every two miles of the line, or on every
four miles, if there be fewer than three landowners; and
that if more than one-third shall dissent on any such two miles
or four miles respectively, the railway, road, or canal shall not
be suffered to pass through those two miles or tour miles, or
any part thereof; and that ercei t within two miles of the
termini, all owners of land within two hundred yards of the

propo,ed line shall be deemed and taken to be own, rs in
reckoning the number of the assents and dissents," which was
agreed to.

RAILWAY GAUGES.

Colonel I)AWSON DAMER appeared, and presented a
message from the Queen, announcing that having received an
address recommending uniformity of gauge in the construction
of future railroads, her Majesty would take the matter into her
gracious consideration.
Mr. HUME wished to knew what was the revenue and ex-
penditure of the province of Sinde ?
Lord JOCELYN said that fifty-three lace of rupees had been
received, and twenty-one had been expended.
CONFLICT WITH THE POLICE AT BALLYHASIG.
In answer to a question from Mr. BOUVERIE,

Sir T. FREMA:NTLE said that he had every reason to
believe the report which had been circulated of the unfortunate
catastrophe at Ballyhasig was correct. It was true that several
lives had been lost. With respect to the police, he trusted,
from the information he had obtained, they were not to blame.
From the appearance of the case, as it at present stood, it was
evident the police had acted in defence of their lives. A pri-
soner was attempted to be rescued, and the police would not
have acted consistently with their duty to have offered no re.
sistance. An attempt had been made to rescue the prisoners,
and it was only when the police considered their lives in danger
that they fired on the people.
Mr. S HEIL—I wish to know has any inquiry been directed
by the Government on the subject of this outrage?
Sir T. FREMANTLE—A coroner's inquest was held on
Thursday (yesterday), and if the investigation on the inquest
did not bring out all the circumstances, or the result was consi-
dered unsatisfactory, the Government would consider it to be
their duty to institute fresh inquiry.—( Cheers. )
Mr. M. GIBSQN wished to ask the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer if he meant to take the report on the Bill of Exchanges
Bill this evening? If so, it was his intention to move that the
report be re-committed, so that several alterations might be
made.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER could not at
that moment state what course he would take on the subject.
FOREIGN SUGAR.

Lord J. RUSSELL wished to know from the Right Hon.
Gentleman at the head of the Government (Sir R. Peel),
whether or not it would be in his power to lay upon the table
of the House those papers relative to Cuba sugar, of which his
Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Labouchere) had given notice of mo-
tionfor the production on the previous evening.
Sir R. PEEL said he thought he could, without preju-
dice to the public interest, lay on the table of the House ex-
tracts from the papers to which the Noble Lord (J. Russell)
adverted.

PROVISION FOR RETIRED NAVY CAPTAINS.
Captain PECHELL begged leave to ask a question of the
Chancellor of the Exchequer. He understood last session
that the First Lord of the Admiralty intended to propose a
measure providing for the retirement of certain naval captains.
Now, he would wish to ask the Right Hon. Gentleman
whether he intended to bring forward a supplemental vote to
that effect this session? _ _

should be answered on Monday.

THE NORTHUMBERLAND ATMOSPHERIC LINE.

The Committee resumed the consideration of this proposed line
of railway this morning. At their sitting the Noble Chairman
intimated that the Committee were willing to sit during the Whit-
suntide vacation if the counsel and their clients were inclined that
they should.
Mr. ALEXANDER said that, as far as he and his side were con-
cerned, they had no inclination that the Committee should be put
to the trouble of sitting during the vacation.
Mr. HILDYAID said that it would be a very great convenience to
his clients if the Committee sat till their past of the business was
transacted.
The final decision on that point was then deferred till Friday.
The Noble CUatRN•N, after the room had been cleared for a
short time, said that the Committee had determined to ask leave
to sit till five o'clock to-day, and to meet tomorrow at eleven, for
the purpose of adjourning at two o'clock.
Mr. Brunel's cross examination by Mr. Trams, with regard to

stated that there were a great number of engines in the vicinity of

consumed their owls smoke, as will be the cave with the eta.

SUMMARY OF NEWS

Vubitt eptuton.

" Who runs may read."

POREIGN.

One of the Paris papers says :—" Since the weather has become
milder, the King takes a walk every morning between six and
seven o'clock, on the terrace in front of his apartments, after which
he retires to his cabinet to business."

The Prince de Joinville had left Paris for Chantilly.
Monday being the anniversary of the death of Napoleon, masses
for the repose of his soul were celebrated in twelve of the principal
churches of Paris.

It is again reported as positive that the Minister of the Finances
is about to present a Bill to the Chambers, authorising the Bank
of France to issue in Paris notes for 250 francs, as it already does
in its branch banks of the departments.

By Royal Ordonnances, the following promotions in the Order
of the Legion of Honour have been made. To be Grand Officers :
M. Gay Ltissac, member of the Academie des Science, and M.
Dupont Delporte, Prefect of the Seine Inferieure. To be Corn.
manders :—M. Augustin Thierry, of the Aca 'etnie des Inscrip_
tions et Belles Lettres, M. Flourens, of the Academie des Sciences,
and M. H. Passy, of the Academie des Sciences Morales et
Politiques.
Several of the journals announce that the Count de Salvandy,
the Minister of Public Instruction, is seriously indisposed. The
Constitutionnel says that absolute repose and strict care as to diet
have been ordered by his physicians.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs has sent out an order to M.
Perrin, the French Consul at Bolivia, to proceed to the Sandwich
Islands and enter into treaty with their authorities. The Minister
of the Marine has, it is said, placed a ship of war at the disposal of
M. Perrin on the occasion of this mission.

A Stockholm letter, of the 9Sd ult., announces the return of the
King of Sweden, and states that immediately after (driving at the
palace he dissolved the Regency appointed to a@t during his absence.
It appears to be decided that the King of Prussia will pay a visit
to the Royal family of Sweden in the course of. the summer, and
that the Queen's brother, the Duke de Leuchtenberg, will arrive
about the same time with his august consort.

A letter from Warsaw, of April 25, states that the Emperor of
Russia has published a Ukase, declaring that all .Jews must lay
aside their costume, and assume the national one. No one can
escape from the effects of this decree longer than for five years
from the present time, and even then only by paying a aura of
money,

%AN, &MD TPOWSZI3I.

The Court of Queen's Bench have granted a mandamus, order.
ing Mr. Paynter, the magistrate, to issue a distress warrant against
the Shareholders of Putney bridge, for non payment of poor's-rates.
The first May Session for Middlesex commenced on Tuesday
at Hick's Hall, Clerkenwell-green, The names of 86 prisoners
appear on the calendar for trial, of whom the majority stand
charged with felony. There are a few cases of assault, but they
are not of a srious nature.

A further investigation took place at the Guildhall into the
charges brought by Messrs. Magnay against several persons for
stealing large quantities of paper. The prisoners were all again re-
manded.

At Queen.square, William Rayner, of York.street, Westmin.
ster, was charged with violently assaulting and wounding Thomas
Hickey, police-constable 120 B, with a poker, and also with at-
tempting to stab him with a knife. The policeman hail interfered
to prevent the prisoner from ill-using a woman, and the prisoner
assaulted the policeman with a poker, attempted to stab him with a
knife, and was in the act of reaching a loaded pistol from a cup.
board, when other policemen arrived and took him into custody.
The magistrate expressed his intention of committing him for
trial.

Several persons were committed from Hammersmith for picking
pockets at Brook-green fair.
A man named Grimwood was committed from the Thames
Police-court for destroying twenty-five panes of glass. The pri-
soner had got outrageously drunk, and had then sallied forth and
commenced regularly smashing the windows of a house opposite,
where he took his stand, giving as a reason for so doing that he was
the glazier's friend.

Henry Lackington, a marine.store.keeper and general dealer, in
Kennington.lane, was charged at Lambeth with having in his pos-
session a great variety of property of every desoription, supposed to
be stolen. On the day before, an officer obtained a warrant to
search the premises of the prisoner for a child's wicker-chair. The
chair, which had been stolen on the same morning, was found in
the prisoner's house, together with a vast quantity of property,
and 122 duplicates for watches, clocks, &c. There were also found
on the back part of the premises no fewer than 17 dogs of different
descriptions, and nearly as many dogs' collars, with names and ini-
tials on them, of which the prisoner could give no satisfactory ac-
count.—He was remanded.

PEEBLES-SHIRE ELECTION

We perceive by the Edinburgh Advertiser that on
Monday Mr. Forbes Mackenzie was returned for
Peebles-shire. Mr. Carmichael was proposed in oppo-
sition to Mr. Forbes Mackenzie, and the Sheriff de-
clared the show of hands to be in Mr. Carmichael's fa-
vour. His friends, however, not wishing to go to the
pull, withdrew his name, and Mr. Forbes Mackenzie was
declared duly ejected. The Hon. Gentleman, in a long
speech, defended his political conduct, more particularly
his recent vote in favour of the grant to Maynooth.

EUGENE SUE'S "DE ROHAN;
Or, TIIE COURT CONSPIRATOR "

An Historical Romance.

" This work is perhaps the best of Eugene Sue's productions.
There is no class of readers, even the highest and most cultivated,
who may net derive both amusement and instruction from it as an
illustration of historical truth; while, on the other hand, its vivid
painting, its wild and exciting incidents, the vigour and verisimilitude
of its delineations of human character, and the rapid movement and
Hold simplicity of its style, give it a peculiar charm for those who
seek, in works of this nature, the mere excitement of the moment."

THE NEW HISTORICAL NOVEL.
Now ready at all the Libraries, in 3 vols.,
111.4 A IDS OF HONOUR;
17. x. A TALE OF THE COURT OF GEORGE I.
" As faithful and graphic a picture of the Court, the higher ranks
of society, and the literary and political celebrities of the period, as
the most diligent aid penetrating reader of history, private memoirs,
and incidental documents which elucidate the reign of George I.
could now furnish. Nor are these chronicles, though less matter of
fac', either less substantially true, or truth like, for the brilliant
colouring and airy graces with which a skilful artist has relieved or
embellished them. Of its truth of outline and colouring there can be
no question. We ought to have said something of the graver parts
of the work—of the Minister Walpole, of Bishop Atterbury, of the
South Sea bubble, and the political intrigues and events of the day—
but we must rest satisfied with recommending Maids of Honour,'
as the wittiest and most sprightly novel of the season."—Tait's Mag.

17. Present, the Right Hon. 11. Labouchere, Chairman ; Mr.
Divett, Mr. Hussey, Lord Ingestre, and Mr. G. W. Heneage.

THE YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND RAILWAY
(BRIDLINGTON BRANCH.)

Immediately after the Committee took their seats the room
was ordered to be cleared.

After a brief deliberation, the parties were Galled in, and In.
formed by
The CttsieYax, that the Committee having considered the argu-
ments for and against the compensation clause claimed by the
Bridlington Pier and Harbour Commissioners, they were of opinion
that there were no grounds for inserting in the Bill a provision for
compensation.
The clauses were then gone through, and
The CHAIRMAN said he would report that th• Bill had been gone
through.

THE QUEEN AND THE GREAT
BRITAIN.
Many persons, no doubt, are surprised we've not written
Concerning our Monarch on board the Great Britain ;
And, perhaps, they have thought that we meant to let slip,
The honour thus paid to the giant-like ship.
But no, we an humble endeavour have made,
To suggest a few hints in the way of our trade.
When the Queen walk'd the deck of the wonderful barque,
And waited its mighty proportions to mark, •
She was just as much struck with the progress of art,
As if she had visited MOSES'S Mart.
The Great Britain ship, as it lay in the water,
Was an object of wonder to Brunswick's fair daughter,
And the gaze of the Queen would be equally won,
By the mighty Columbus of MOSES and SON.
The Great Britain ship, and the Great British Mart,
May justly be term'd the Twin Wonders of Art.
And while the Great Britain is King of the Sea,
MOSES' Warehouse shall boast of an equal degree.
Yes—its commerce shall happily rise and expand,
While thousands proclaim it The King of the Land.
A new work, entitled " THE LEVIATHAN OF TRADE," with
full directions for Self-Measurement, may be had on application,
or forwarded post-free.
