TUE CASE OF MESSRS. SMITH, TUE DISTILLERS,
ANA THE EXCISE.—The law officers of the Crown aro in
daily communication with the Commissioners of Excise on
the subject of the above approaching trial in the Cour
of Exchequer. To render the case more intelligible
than it could possibly be by the description of counsel,
and the immense interests involved in the issue, the
Commissioners have caused to bo constructed a model of
the If:remises at a cost of three hundred guineas, which is
00'.v in the board room of the excise department. This
model it is proposed to place before the jury on the day
of trial.
'We have every reason to believe, from information
received from Oxford, that in deference to the opinion
of a large number of the members of Convocation who
have expressed their dissent from the proposed altera-
tions, the intended additions to the Statute, title xvii
sect. 3, "De Auctoritate et Officio Vic2-Cancellarii,"l
will be withdrawn ; and so form no_ part of the acade-
mical'
business to be considered and determined on upon

of the explosion is supposed to be the falling away of a
portion of the walls which separate the working from the
old levels, by which a large quantity of fire. damp was
liberated, and took fire at one of the workmen's candles.
