POLICE COURT.-Y ESTBEDAY PICKING POCKETS AT THII RAILWAY-STATION.—John M`Cabe and William Millet, two lads, were apprehended at the railway-station, in Lime-street, charged with pick- ing the pocket of Maria Lowe, of a purse containing £1 7s. McCabe was seen to put his hand into her pocket and run off. On being searched, the purse containing the money was found on M`Cabe. Millet had two silk hand- kerchiefs, a silver thimble, and a purse containing ls. 74d. in his pocket. Al'Cabe, who had been committed on a previous occasion, was sentenced to be imprisoned for three months. Millet to be imprisoned for one month. STEALING A PAWNTICZET AND WEARING APPAREL. —Thomas Arkwright, an elderly man, was charged with stealing a coat and waistcoat, a razor, and a pawnticket for a gold watch, on which £6 had been advanced. The property was stolen from the house of Robert Russell, 44, Vernon-street. From the statement of the prosecutor it appeared that the prisoner had lived for several weeks in the house of the former, who had supported the pri- soner out of charitable motives. Russell, it appeared, having had to go to Normandy, had pledged the watch and left the ticket with his wife. The prisoner, taking advantage of the prosecutor's absence, stole the property. Remanded till to-morrow. STEALING APPLES.—Three youths, Lawrence Cleary, Wm. Robinson, and Thomas Kearney, were charged with having a large quantity of apples in their possession. The fruit, it was suspected, had been stolen from the garden of Sir John Bent, in the neighbourhood of which they were found. Sir John Bent, who attended, stated that his garden had been robbed between. Saturday night and Sunday morning, and a quantity of fruit similar to that found on the prisoners had been stolen. The account given by the prisoners as to how the property was acquired was most unsatisfactory ; and Cleary, the elder prisoner, about sixteen years of age, was sentenced to be imprisoned for three months. The other two, who were mere chil- dren, were given up to their parents, who were cautioned to look better after their boys. Several parties charged with fighting and rioting in the streets were fined in sums varying from ss. to 20s. each. The magistrate, in inflicting the fines, stated the determi. nation of himself and the other magistrates to put a stop to these disgraceful street brawls. AN INCORRIGIBLE.—Patrick Maloney was charged with having. concealed four sheets of yellow sheathing metal, at the Sandon Graving-dock, on Saturday afternoon, with intent to steal it. Police-constable 773 saw the prisoner endeavouring to hide the metal under a quantity of oakum, and watched till he returned to take it away. When the prisoner returned apparently to carry of the booty, the constable took him into custody. The prisoner had, it seems, been fifteen times committed to prison on charges of theft; and had been also four times. discharged. On the present occasion he was sentenced to be imprisoned for three months. SAVAGE AssArirs.—Mattliew Bell and Daniel Burnes, two savage-looking youths, were charged with assaulting police officers 106 and 365, in Canning-place, on Saturday night. Major oreig said that the prisoner Bell's conduct at the station-house was like that of a maniac. He had on a pair of heavy clogs, and he bit and kicked 106 in the most brutal manner. The conduct of the officers, he was glad to say, was most forbearing, notwithstanding the great provocation they received.' Bell was ordered to pay 40s. or go to prison for a month, and Burnes 20s. or 14 days.—Officer 656 complained that Patrick McGough, who he took up for disorderly conduct in Thomas's- stred on Saturday night, had kicked him on the shin so severely that he was unable to walk. The officer appeared with a crutch. The prisoner was fined 55., and in default sent to prison for 7 days..Tohn Kelly complained that Frank Kers had, while drunk, assaulted him without the slightest provocation. The officer who had received the prisoner at bridewell was absent, and the magistrate directed that he should be fined 2s. 6d. Kers was fined 10s. or 14 days' imprisonment.—Margaret Gallagher, who appeared in court with a baby in her arms, complained that Margaret Nicholson, a woman apparently much older than herself, had beaten her dreadfully with a poker on Saturday night. The complainant's hand was bound up, and appeared to have suffered severely. On being ques- tioned by the magistrate, she admitted that the father of the child she held was the prisoner's husband. The Court, considering the provocation received, mitigated Nichol- son's punishment, and ordered her to pay 10s. or go to prison for 14 days. THE MARINE-STORE DEALERS AGAIN. —A youth named Michael Deagan, and Joseph Cowley, marine-store dealers, in Lawton-street, were charged the former with stealing, and the latter with purchasing about 241bs. of upholstei e..'s hair from the premises of Mr. John Lewis. Bs' 9..-St Th- 'bbery F" Basnett-street rot. awl been going on foz some time, and was not discovered until Saturday, when a female witness saw the property in course of removal, and informed the prosecutor. There were no inventories in - having- nnrehaspd thr. t.-e- --'" was tounu on his premises, but he excused _ ing that he was a poor scholar and could not write very well. The boy was committed for a month, and Mr. Holme ordered Cowley to pay a penalty of 205., and his license to be suspended. The prisoners were apprehended only half an hour previous to the hearing* of the case. )3, say. ECCLESIASTICAL INTELLIGENCE. PREFERMENTS AND APPOINTMENTS, Rev. W. J.

PROTESTANTISM IN GERMANY. The Seventh Annual Session of the German Kirchentay (Church League) is to be held at Frankfort-on-Maine, on the 22nd September, and four following days : "All Evangelical Christians who, by their belief, occupy the ground of the Confessions of Faith of the Reformation, and who cordially desire the success of the efforts made to bring about a confederacy of the German Churches, Lutheran, Reformed, and United, are invited to take part in this seventh session.

NEW CurEmEs.—Several new churches are about being commenced in the metropolitan districts, and some are so far advanced as to be nearly ready for consecration. In Paddington three new churches are to be at once com- menced, the Bishop of London having subscribed £l,OOO towards that object. In Coventry-street, Haymarket, between Rupert-street and Princes-street, a church is to • nt be erected, Her Majesty the Queen having subscribed £500; the Bishop of London, £10900; _, for that purpose. Viscoll Sydney, £25 ; and Mr. W. T.

We may add to the above, that "a first gift" of £9,000 has been placed at the disposal of the Rev. George Nugee, late senior curate of St. Paul's, Knightsbridge, from a party previously unknown to the rev. gentleman, towards the erection of a church either in London or some manufacturing town in England.—Guardian. TD E AMERICAN Cliuscix.—The . commencemeu. Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut, took place on the 27th ult., and was largely attended. An unusual number of the Alumni of the College were present. The degree of Bachelor of Arts was conferred upon thirty-one candidates - the degree of M.A. on twenty-three ; and that of D.D. on the Rev. Henry Caswall, of England.—New York Times. PRINCE ALBERT laid the foundation stone of St. Tho- mas's Church, at Newport, Isle of Wight, on Thursday, in the presence of Lord 'Heytesbury, the governor of the island, the bishop of the diocese, the county and borough members, the nobility and gentry, and town council. A, committee had previously been formed to make arrange- ments for giving the Prince a suitable reception, and im- mense triumphal arches, flags, garlands of flowers, and similar complimentary devices, were prepared. The day was set apart as a holiday, and nearly all business was suspended. The 77th regiment, under the command of Colonel White, formed the guard of honour. His royal highness arrived about one o'clock. On alighting from his carriage at the door of the Town-hall, he was received by the Mayor of Newport, in his robes of office, the Bishop of Winchester, and other officials, and thence proceeded to the ante-room, where the drawings and plans of the new church were submitted to his inspection. After a few minutes spent in conversation, a procession was formed towards the site of the church, on arriving at which, all having taken their places, the architect presented to hiw Royal Highness the working plans of the church, a! di explained its proposed accommodation, after which the customary coins and documents were placed in a cavity beneath the stone. The foundation stone was then partly lowered, and a silver trowel, bearing the arms of the bo- rough of Newport, was presented to Prince Albert, who, having spread the mortar, said, " We place this stone in. faith and hope to the glory of God, through Jesus Christ; our Lord." The stone having been adjusted, the Bishop of Winchester offered up prayer for the Divine blessing, and the formal business was concluded. The proceedings of the day were wound up by a luncheon at the Town- hall, the mayor presiding. CATHEDRAL REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE. —Front the detailed statement just published, it appears that the whole revenue of the various chapters of England and Wales for the year 1852 was £313,005. 25., and the ex- penditure £312,236 ss. 10id. The average annual amounts of these revenues for the. seven years ending 1852 was £295,984 4s. 6(11., so that it would appear that in most instances cathedral property is increasing in value. The greater part of the corporate revenues is derived front fines on the granting and renewing of leases of landed estates and tithe-rent charges. The remainder arises from estates and rent-charges in hand, reserved rents, profits of manors, woods, and quarries, and sums of money invested in public securities. The chapter of Durham has a large revenue from fines on leases of mines, wayleaves, &c. From the analysis of expenditure in the report we find that the amount paid in 1852 by the different chap- ters for repairs of the fabrics and precincts, stipends of various members and officers (exclusive of the chapter) and and other necessary expenses, with payment of vicars of parishes, and contributions to other religious purposes, was £108,695, while the amount divided in the same year between the members of the capitular bodies was £160,713. It further appears that 1853 £50,054 was paid to. the Ecclesiastical Commissioner .s under the provisions of various acts. of parliament commencing with the 3rd and 4th Victoria, chap. 113, on account of certain dean- eries and canonries, and of 59 canonries which have been suspended in accordance with these acts. There are, too, 19 canonries still remaining liable to suspension, the re- venues of wA. ue also paid to the Eccle- siastical Commissioners. By the same acts the separate estates of the deans and other chief persons and officers of the old cathedrals, and of the canons residentary and non- residentary, were transferred to the Ecclesiastical Corn- ' --;nners ; and it now appears that this provision has effr i will in that case Lect with respect to 318 estates out of the whole number of 370. The amount produced by the estates so vested is stated in the report to have been in 1853, £46,592 18s. 7d. The Chapters of York and Car. lisle have recently transferred the whole of their corporate property to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, receivinz in _ exchange an annual payment equal to the amount of their average incomes and ordinary expenditure. Part of these capitular contributions, however, return to capitular pur- poses in the shape of payments to the members of the less wealthy Chapters. The average of these payments for 12 years from 1842, when they commenced, to the close of 1853, was £7,697 17s. About £4,000 is also paid annually in augmentation of archdeaconries. With regard to the fabric expenses mentioned above, we find that during the last 14 years about £370,000 has been expended on the 28 cathedrals and on the collegiate churches of Westminster and Windsor, of which £250,000 have been provided from chapter funds and the individual contributions of members, and £120,000 by public subscriptions. About a third of the cathedrals have special fabric funds. The fabric of St. Paul's, for instance, is maintained by a fund in the hands of trustees, independently of the Chapter and its revenue. At Exeter the repair of the fabric form the first charge on the capitular revenues. York Minster has an ancient statutable claim to one-sixth part of the entire income of the common estates ; and at Durham it is considered that the woods of the Chapter are by statute appropriated to the repairs of the cathedral and capitular buildings. GOSPEL PROPAGATION SOCIETY.—A meeting of the friends of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign. Parts was held on Thursday, at Enniskerry, in the county of Wicklow, which was attended by several clergymen, and a numerous assemblage of ladies. The Archbishop of Dublin presided. The first resolution was proposed by a layman (Viscount Monck). It was as fol- lows :—" That the present extent of emigration from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and the circumstances and position of settlers in a new land, im- pose upon the mother country and church the strongest obligation to provide the blessings of religious instruction for those who go forth to people our colonies." The Rev. John Grant proposed the next resolution :—" That the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, by its long, faithful, and successful exertions for evange- lizing our colonies and the heathen, deserves the cordial support of all sincere members of the Church of England and Ireland." After several addresses had been delivered, a vote of thanks to the Archbishop was agreed to, and his Grace, in responding to the compliment, spoke as follows " My Christian friends, after what has been so fully set before you, I am not going to detain you with any obser- vations in reference to the resolution you have been so good as to pass ; but I wish to remark generally, that in this, as in all other cases, I have thought it my duty, where there is an institution or society which is in itself good, never to allow myself to abandon it in despair, on account of any even real, well established faults which may exist in it, so long as there is the least hope of reme- at.- _v._ • • has Seen urged against this society is, as ha's been well set before you, altogether imaginary and unreal. But I never supported this society supposing that the colonial bishops, or the clergy at home, or in any part of the Church, were faultless and infallible. I considered that, the object being a good one, the only way in which I or any one else could have a chance of introducing any re. quisite improvement, is by joining and furthering the society, and by that means acquiring a certain degree of influence in it. If every one in this country were to turn rebel against the government who thinks that some acts of parliament are not perfect, and that some parts of the constitution need improvement, it would break up the whole frame of society, If every person were to withdraw from the Church, and from some other reli- gious community, because he saw that there was some- thing requiring amendment in the Church, but of which he would not attempt Me improvement, he would very soon find that the same was the case in every other religious community that he should join, and eventually he would cease to be a member of any Christian church whatever. And so it is with all human institutions. It is with the view I have mentioned that I have always most cordially supported this society, while, at the same time, I have watched carefully for every opportunity of introducing any improvement which I thought desirable ; and I am happy to say that I believe there is very good hope of any improvement that may be needed being intro- duced. If the society itself were objectionable in its fun- damental principles, of course I should renounce it ; but we are not at liberty to renounce and abandon at once, in despair, every thing which we think admits of improve- ment. If persons were to spread a report that no repu- table person resided in such and such a street or square.of the city, but that it was inhabited solely by disreputable persons, the declaration would very soon become a true one ; all respectable persons would abandon the locality, and it would be given up to the lowest and vilest of the population. And so it is with every human institution and every society that can possibly be formed by fallible man. Our way is to live in the Church—to live in the country—and to live as members of society—and to endea- vour to introduce into them whatever improvements we think desirable. With this view I have given inYe°rdial „bm support to the society ; and I will just mention on of our colonies in particular, of which I am, as you know, ed most earnestly to penal colonies. I have endeavour with the refuse and deprecate the system of colonizingn a most vehement opponent—l mean what are called the scum of our population ; principles even into thoseco introduced, those endeavours, lonics ; and even in Australia but hile I have been using notwithstanding the improvements have been have also .striven to infuse some better .fortunate.loyurdedegrtado e colonieserof as good as they could the population. I have endeavoured be made, though, at the same time, I deprecated the degraded dmakchae trahoset system on which they had been founded."

SATURDAY. INSURANCE CASE—WILSON AND ANOTHER V. MARTIN, AND WILSON AND ANOTHER V. RATIITIONE.—In these two cases Messrs. Joseph Wilson and Co., of New Orleans, the plaintiffs, sought to recover from the defendants, both of whom were underwriters for the ship Cambyses, insurance upon portions of the freight of that vessel. In November, 1852, the plaintiffs, in accordance with instructions re- ceived from Messrs. Crane and Co., St. John, New Bruns- wick, the owners of the ship Cambyses, procured a freight for that vessel, and accepted from the captain a bill upon the cousignoos for his disbureemeuto, insuring a sufaAont rate of six per cent. per an rnilltrnv .11nrAq Wm, ilemna;+. ir#y, certain Thos. Brand becoming a, and also to demand, in the event of their lepreciated to a certain amount, additonal security. irse, the loan would have, become repayable ou the ,1£347; IA ?r, the va: In due e+ previot in the month of of the shares deposited had become so depreciated that the margin of 20 per cent., as per agree- ment, was found not to be maintainable. Accordingly, Mr. Douglas, the secretary to the company, finding this defi- ciency, made application to Messrs. Townley and White- head, on behalf of their principal, Sir Thomas Brancker, uiring, further security ; and, on the 30th of September, en notified to Mr. Douglas their readiness to m the part of r 'Thomaslancker, as the addi. liirty Harrington Dock shares, le. On the 14th of October those with po h the plaintiff's, a the time wa: then d were made, the £lO,OOO would become rer cker repay the loan, zh his brokers, Messrs. ; ToWnley and Whitehead, he made application to the com- pany for a renewal of the loan, which, upon certain terms, ! was ultimately agreed to for an extended period of six months. The loan was renewed at the current rate of in- terest, and Sir Thomas Brancker deposited with the com- pany his brother's (Mr. James Brancker's) acceptance on his draft of £2,000, at six mouths, as collateral security, to cover any deficiency which might arise beyond the value of the stock. As a portion of the fresh arrange- ment, Sir Thomas Brancker wished the company to forego their right to insist on the margin provided by the ori- ginal agreement being maintained ; but the company, on consultation with their solicitors, Messrs. Duncan and Radcliffe, declined to abandon their right in this particular. On the 26th of October, 1847, the fresh loan was completed, the conditions being the same as in the original agreement, with the exception that interest would be charged at the rate of eight per cent. The loan was to fall due on the 26th of April, 1848 ; but on the 7th of January, 1848, Mr. James Brancker wrote to Mr. Alexander Smith, the chairman of the company. The letter was dated the 7th of January, 1848, and was as follows :—" My dear sir,—l thank you for all the trou- ble you have taken in the arrangement with Mr. Moon, and I have now to beg your kind intervention with the North British Insurance Company. We have been making an arrangement of the guarantees of Sir Thomas's stock, so as to separate the liabilities and not let them bear too heavily on any one. He will call upon you with the one prepared for the Insurance Company to replace my pro- missory note. [No doubt a misdescription of his accept- ance.] It is a better arrangement for them, and we trust that you will remove any difficulty in the matter. lam sure you will lend your aid, and that, if necessary, Mr. Crossthwaite will also assist you." This was the first suggestion of any guarantee whatever, and it was a propo- sition solely emanating from Mr. James Brancker, who was in the confidence, and, no doubt, had the sanction of Sir Thomas Brancker for what he offered. The company did not solicit it ; it was no advantage to them, for both then and at the time of his death, Mr. James Brancker was a perfectly solvent person. His draft would become due in the course of a few months, and it represented security for £2,000, fully as good as the guarantee. When Mr. Brancker's letter was laid before the directors of the company, they expressed their willingness to consent, provided they had the approval of Messrs. Townley and Whitehead for so doing ; and Mr. Douglas accordingly wrote to them on the 17th of January, informing them of the offer of Mr. Brancker to substitute for his accept- ance a guarantee signed by Mr. John Buck Lloyd, defend- ant, Mr. Peter W. Brancker, Mr. Jas. Bourne, and Mr. Ambrose Lace, for £5OO each. In the afternoon of the same day, Messrs. Townley and Whitehead wrote to Mr. Douglas, sanctioning the change of securities, and the matter was then completed. Shortly after the 18th of January, the directors having discovered something in the guarantee, submitted it to Mr. Duncan ; and that gentleman having considered it, was of opinion that its validity would be doubtful unless a sufficient considera- tion were stated on the face of it. He had no doubt that the gentlemen whose names were attached to the guaran- tee meant to be bound by it, and that in rectifying the error, he would only be at the same time consulting the interests of his clients, the Insurance Company, and car- rying out the intention of the guarantors. His opinion was communicated to them, and in the end the guarantee was withdrawn, and a fresh one drawn up, and signed by the guarantors on the 14th of February, 1848. It was upon this guarantee the present action was founded. In April, 1848, the loan expired, and, as the shares were daily depreciating, it became necessary for the company to look after the securities. On the 10th of June the de- fendant and the other guarantors were communicated with, informing them that unless the loans were settled it would be necessary to realize the securities. Several other communications were made from time to time to the guarantors, but no objection or remonstrance was re- ceived from them; and after a length of time the securi- ties in shares, which had so depreciated that the company was left in deficiency the sum of £6,000, were realized, and now the present action was instituted to recover the respective amounts from the guarantors. The learned counsel, in conclusion, commented upon the pleas which had been put upon the record by the defendant, He said they could not be maintained either in law or fact, and more particularly the third plea, which attributed to the plaintiffs a fraud in the transaction by not fully stating to the defendant Sir Thomas Brancker's circumstances at the time they obtained the guarantee. Evidence was then given in support of the case as stated by the counsel for the plaintiff. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then proceeded to state the Faso for the defence. He observed, that though the open- ing statement of his friend, Mr. Atherton, had occupied so long a time, it would be found that the question was one which resolved itself entirely into a point of law, and that would;speedily appear when he had placed before the court one single fact, which he believed would not for a moment be disputed. And when he had done that, it would be for his lordship to say whether, in point of law, there was a defence upon the third plea, upon the terms of which his learned friend had quarrelled. He meant the plea of fraud and misrepresentation, which Mr. Ather- ton, as a lawyer, well knew was not intended to convey any imputation in the sense in which the word fraud generally bore, because it was only a term which the law used to express that sort of defence which was resorted to in the present action. The law adopted that term, and ityr 0 used to signify the keeping back cutout lag- not convenient for Sir Thomas Branc

The Post-office authorities have announced their intention to expedite the night mails for the North of England and North Wales by dis- patching them three hours earlier. This will necessitate the posting of THE STANDARD before nine o'clock on Monday night, instead of mid- night, as heretofore; and, in consequence, we are compelled to request that all advertisements and communications may be sent to the office before six o'clock on Monday evening at the latest. The alteration will afford an advan- tage to our northern subscribers in the delivery of their papers some hours earlier; and to those in North Wales there will be a gain of nearly twenty-four hours.

WEDNESDAY The Court met at nine o'clock, and resumed hearing the case of Read and Others v. Aikin and others. Evidence for the plaintiff was continued, the purport of which was, that if the second steam-tug had remained, and rendered such assistance as she was quite able to have done, the David G. Fleming might have been got into dock safely ; and that, under the circumstances of the case, every resomfUle promitm lad bogi utkona 94 tag part Q the e had b, tiro plaintiff, but before the summarily dismissed. The laintifi went, along with his boy, to the defendant, to claim wages for the unexpired term.

Mr. Baron Platt.) disposed of all the c ening to me o'clocli s seat this morning, at and proceeded to .the sposal of civil cause ACTION OF OVERF, YMnNT.—Brackenridge v. Smith.— Th iswas an action for the recovery of £3l 3s. 10d. The plaintiff, is one of the firm of Brackenridge and Gould, corn merchants, of this town, and the defendant is an extensive corn dealer, at Todmorden, of the firm of R. and E. Smith. The case originated in an alleged mistake. On Tuesday, March 28th,Mr. Smith attended the Liverpool corn market, having two purses in his pockets—one containing notes to the amount of £l7O, the other containing £2lO in gold. Owing the plaintiff £202 Bs., the defendant handed him the purse of gold, saying it contained £l7O, and he would call after market and settle the remainder. Mr. bracken- ridge afterwards raid the settlement would, do on Thurs- day. Upon arriving at home, the defendant discovered his mistake and wrote. The money had been entered in Mr. Brackenridge's books as £170; hence the dispute and action.—Verdict for the defendant. HOUSE CASE.—Anger v. Carlton.—This was an action to recover £2OO, the price of three horses sold by the plaintiff, a horse dealer, to Robert Carlton, gentleman, also of this town. It appeared that, in May last, the de- fendant went to Lucas's Repository, where the plaintiff, who dealt extensively in horses, had some for sale. He arranged to buy a bay horse and a bay mare, value £lso— latter intended for a lady. A memorandum was made to that effect by Mr. Lucas, who had the horses put in loose boxes, and taken particular care of, by the direction of Mr. Carlton. Afterwards the defendant bought a third horse for £5O, though he still left them at Mr. Lucas's livery stable, and ordered saddlery and horse clothing from Mr. Mercer, and also had one of the horses broken in. A relative of the defendant's, Mr. Cruikshank, had, on several occasions, ridden one of the horses out. The defendant afterwards repudiated the bargains ; hence this action. The defence set up was, that the defendant, at the time in question, was not in a fit state to make a bargain—that he was not sober.—Verdict for the paintiff. —His Lordship gave the defendant liberty to move that there was no evidence to go before a jury to prove an acceptance. IMPORTANT TO THE SMITING INTEREST.—STEELE V. SCUOMBERG.—This was an action brought by the plain- tiff, Mr. James Steele, shipowner, of this town, against Captain Schomberg, the government emigration officer, of this port, to recover compensation in damages for loss sustained arising out of the circumstances detailed below. Mr. Steele, the plaintiff, in 1833 became the purchaser of the ship Miltiades, of 674 tons, while afloat, and on her passage here from Callao, with guano. On her arrival, the plaintiff went on board the vessel, and she drew 18 ' feet 6 inches of water ail, and 18 feet 3 inches forward. Mr. M`Keverigan, shipbuilder, was engaged to survey the , vessel, and his report was satisfactory. Plaintiff fitted her ' up as a passenger ship, and gave notice thereof to defen- dant. She was also examined when in the graving dock, and on the 17th October measured off, allowing her 20 cabin and 80 between-deck passengers. The work of getting the ship ready went on till December ; and on the 7th the plaintiff, being in London, received a telegraphic message requesting his return. He did so ; and on the morning of the Bth waited upon Captain Schomberg, who expressed regret on account of his being obliged to stop the vessel, in consequence of her being 18 inches too deep. Plaintiff asked defendant by what rule he had arrived at that conclusion ? He replied, by no rule, but by a sailor's eye. Plaintiff replied, that commercial men had good commercial rules on these matters ; and Capt. Schomberg then said that, to satisfy Mr. Steele, he would call a survey of the ship by his own officers, which he did, and they took the draft of water, and confirmed the defen- dant's statement. On a subsequent interview with defen- dant, the plaintiff said he would leave the matter. to the decision of any number of commercial men, and if they, or any one of them, said the ship was too deep, lie would lighten her. He declined, and a portion of the cargo—not prohibited articles—was discharged, the attendant ex- penses upon the whole affair being laid at £1,048 17s. 11d. It was contended that the sections of the passenger act gave the defendant no such power as he had thus exel- cised.—For the defence it was argued that Capt. Schom- berg was not liable to this action, his office being judicial and not ministerial. The passenger act empowered him to exercise his own judgment in regard to passenger ships. —His Lordship thought that the defendant was entitled to a verdict, so far as that he was protected by act of par- liament ; but suggested that one of the jury should decide what compensation, if any, should be made. This was agreed to, and Mr. Bernard Hall was named. His Lord- ship will certify, subject to appeal to the court above. The court rose shortly after six.

THE CHOLERA WHILE the metropolis and many otheri ;,1# are suffering from the awful scourge of ebcue 041 which hundreds in apparent health have beenr'bje t 4; denly struck down, it is gratifying to befr state that Liverpool is in a comparatively Pebelo° state, the returns of mortality being rather, °- polli than above the average.

which may 1 to open out into the ba are lounging ber of the officers of the 46th, who have been called in, are about to be called in, or who have been turned out the midst of their examination, because the court w_ cleared,--and there they are all gossipping, with Colonel Garrett in the midst of them. The method in which the xamination is conducted is this :—Let us suppose that - wishes to put a quest cross-examit tion. The witness is standing between the President and the Deputy-Judge-Advocate—so close that he could with the utmost facility read any paper that might be in the hands of either of them. The prisoner then writes his question on a slip of paper, and delivers it to the orderly sergeant, who carries it to the President. The President looks at it, and may or may not raise a little friendly discusssion upon it, in which all persons officially present seem inclined enough to join. But let us presume that he hands it at once to the Deputy-Judge- Advocate. This functionary reads it aloud—but it must not therefore be supposed that the witness is to be incom- moded as yet with any necessity for reply. After reading out the question, the Deputy-Judge-Advocate quietly takes up his pen and transcribes it into the minutes with all due circumspection and attention to calligraphy, and then, and not till then, does he rise from his seat and read the question out to the witness, much in the same tone he would use if he were asking him to take a glass of wine. We leave it to the experience of all persons who have been connected with the administration of justice to decide what chance there is of eliciting truth upon a system of this kind. The theory which Lieutenant Perry set up in his defence was, that the bulk of the officers of the 40th were in combination against him, and that many of them had been guilty of perjury in the evidence they delivered against him—either the perjury of assertion or the perjury of forgetfulness. It was with the weapons, and under the circumstances we have described, that he was to trip them into contradiction with themselves, to confound them with the consciousness of their guilt, and to drag the truth from their white and trembling lips. Even then we have not quite exhausted the absurdities of a court-martial. It must not be supposed that the Deputy-judge-advocate records the answer actually given ; he throws in pronouns and prepositions according to his own fancy. He allows the witnesses for the prosecution to alter and amend their evidence a dozen times before- it is recorded. He helps a lame dog, so the dog limps on the prosecutor's side, over any awkward style. The func- tions discharged by the official prosecutor are perhaps the most anomalous of all ; he frames the questions for the examination in chief, and stops the questions for the cross- examination ; he makes and enforces his own statutes of limitation ; and, in fact, performs in his own person those compound duties which, in civil courts, are discharged by the judge, the jury) the counsel for the defence, and the counsel for the prosecution, and winds up with an enco- mium npou the impartiality he has displayed throughout. OLD NICE.--At the review at Windsor, a spectator, exulting in the magnificence of the warlike array, ex- claimed, " What does Old Nick (Nicholas) think of that E" To which irreverent question, a Quakerlike personage, who, nevertheless, evinced great curiosity, and who mis- tookpersonage referred to, replied with a groan, he feared DitlZstia Would be but too delighted with it," CARDIFF.—As an instance of the overcrowded state of the coal docks in the various ports of South Wales, we may mention that at Cardiff there are at this time no less than 15,000 tons of shipping waiting outside the dock gates to be loaded with coal from the pits of one proprietor only, and this exclusive of the vessels in the docks taking in eargo. The new dock which is being built in order to accommodate the enormously increasing traffic of the port, is rapidly approaching to completion, but even this addi- tional area will shortly prove inefficient. This new work has been undertaken by the trustees of the Bute estate. THE IsTEw PußrAo-nousE LAW.—At the Birkenhead Police-court, on Thursday, several publicans and beer- house-keepers were summoned for infringements of the new act regulating public-houses. Several cases were dis- missed on various grounds, but many persons were fined. Mr. Case, during the hearing of the cases, more than once stated that every publican in the township had been supplied with an abstract of the new act of parliament, and therefore they could not plead ignorance. The bench were determined to carry out the new act with the great- est severity and rigour. STATUE OF THE DUKE OF WELLINGToN.—The inhabi- tants of the town of Brecon are about to raise a statue of the late Duke of Wellington, and the site for its erection has just been selected. It will be placed on the Bulwark, about 50 feet from the church. The height of the statue and pedestal will be 18 feet, the former being 8 feet and the latter ten. John Evan Thomas, the eminent sculptor, will be the artist, and there cannot be a doubt that the whole will be an ornament to the town. The site chosen is very striking, and calculated well to show the statue to advantage. SPORTIIVG INTELLIGENCE LATEST BETTING. The speculation on forthcoming events during the past week shows a great change in the favourites for the Don- caster St. Leger. King Tom was laid against at 1,000 to 5 on Monday, and on Tuesday he was declared not to start. Boiardo, reported to have had a very favourable trial, had strong supporters, who, after commencing at 40 to 1 on Monday, have backed him at all prices during the week, 2 to 1 only being obtainable about him on Friday evening. Dervish, on the advance of his stable companion, has re- ceded to the outside division, whilst Acrobat has many admirers, who freely take 6to 1 about him. Champagne is hors de combat, having broken down very badly in the race for the Great Yorkshire Stakes.- The Trapper, Mid- summer, Ivan, and The Knight of St. George, are also inquired after, and have been backed at our quotations.— For the Leamington Stakes and the Derby there is not much doing.

',hey were threatened with kind of abuse was practised upon their n many tricts, the anfor- ,een led from darl to emigrate in the hope of finding in the soil, and free constitution of the United States ty from persecution which they could not en- in their native land. He had been requested, he said it tinuation, to move a resolution, which was to this effect That universal as experience has proved the Romisl _ system to be hostile tomen's temporal and spiritual welfare, the only hope of Ireland's national regeneration lay in her deliverance from the baneful influence by which she has been so long blighted." (Cheers.) In carrying out the the iresolution, he would commence by stating, time since at the British Museum he was look- .g over the records of that house of which their chair- man (Mr. Horsfall) was so worthy a member—(vehement ring), and among the records laid upon the of the House of Commons, by order of Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, he found certain documents relating to the state of crime in Eng- land, and the state of crime in Ireland. That which related to England gave a return of every case of a crimi- ^ommitted in England and Wales, and under the large of murder the total number of persons accused, tiring a period of ten years, was 718, of whom 179 were onvicted, which would give 72 committals for murder er annum ; and, comparing this with the population of England and Wales, according to the last census, they onclusively arrived at the result that in each million )f the population of England and Wales there were four persons charged with murder. In other words, the pro- portion of accusations for murder was as four to a million. He entreated the meeting to retain that item steadily in their mind, as beingthe standard by which all he had stated that evening should be judged. Among the other docu- ments laid on the table of the House, he found a return of the number of cases of murder in Ireland reported to the police for a period of nearly three years, the total number being 644, or exactly 33 in a million. (Sensation.) But it was fair to say this was some years ago—from 1836 to 1839—and that since then there had been a great change, a change rising contemporaneously with that described by his friend Mr. Ellis as taking place in Connemara, Dublin, and other parts of Ireland. (Cheers.) The same report contained a report for seven years—the even best years ever known in the history of Ireland. "n those seven years the number of reported murders ras 914, which gave an average of 130 per annum, and, when mmared with the population, it showed that there were -s to each million of the population. Hete, then, ..1 at the facts which enabled them to draw a arison between the two countries of England and ,and. Governed by the same laws, living under the ame constitution, having the same civil and religious liberties, ruled by the same magistracy, and reigned over by the same sovereign ;—(hear, hear)—yet in Eng- land and Wales there were only four murders to a million Inhabitants; while in Ireland, for the past seven years, the 'murders were, on the average, nineteen to the million. 'hence arose the difference ? On looking through the )ers he found two other documents which would enable - enrm a judgment as to the relative proportion of .1t parts of Ireland itself : in the north ,re Protestants chiefly prevailed, and in the south-west, where Romanism principally obtained.— The return for the year 1839. showed clearly that in a eras a large body of Pro- -1 with con lay of direct ilst rejoicinu is of less for ma Was ne• the Charcl the measun of your ov ig-tried al Nov, I'll 3s. and V 4 re ?

(Sensation.) Wherefore was this difference ? To what cause must they attribute it ? In another return for 1843, he found that the number of persons charged with murder in the Protestant district was' 7 to one million, while in the Roman Catholic district' the number charged amounted it to 50 to the million !' (Great sensat4^- ige was made, but there his man's mind, and he mid be between Id the he for himself, and s —....... —...4b1U11.) again Asked—why should there be this difference—not .crely between England and Ireland, but between two parts of the same realm of Ireland ?

Although a large portion of the cereal crops in this neigh- bourhood is already cut, very few samples have appeared for sale, and consequently no certain prices of new are yet established ; offers of, old wheats from the farmers, however, are rather more numerous to-day, and realised the annexed quotations. Flour in fair request, but only choice fresh qualities support the currencies of Tuesday Canadian, in some cases, is sold a trifle cheaper from the quay, and prime Spanish is saleable at 525. Barley and beans, in limited request, barely supporting previous prices. • Oats find a slow sale, but oatmeal continues in good demand. The market is cleared of prime yellow Indian corn, and Irish buyers have taken secondary descriptions to a good extent at full prices; choice white is also very scarce. BRITISH. FOREIGN.

DUBLIN, AUG. 24.—An opinion prevails that in con- sequence of 24,000 trs. and 12,000 brls. of navy beef being required for the fleet, the price of stock will hold firm. Certain it is, that although the number of beasts at Smithfield this day was considerably greater than at any previous market this season, everything except inferior cattle maintained, or nearly so, the rates of last week. Prime well-finished stock was in brisk demand, but beasts not up to the mark were in less request, and sales not easily effected at a downward tendency. The attendance of buyers for export and home consumption was numerous, the demand steady, and feeders seemed satisfied with the results of the day. Including the 36,000 casks of cured beef above referred to, it is understood that 50,06.3 trs. of beef and 32,000 trs. of pork will be required for the army and navy, being the largest contract for the last half cen- tury. Beef to-day, 50s to 60s, and 65s per cwt., sinking offal ; mutton, sd, 5-td, to 61, and 7d per lb. ' • veal, 6d to 7d per lb. in do. ; lambs, 20s to 28s each. Pork, it is supposed, will open about 6d per lb. (on the Ist proximo), or about 56s per cwt.

.o the members of the less age of ti lyments f ,o paid annually in augmentation of archdeaconries. With regard to the fabric expenses mentioned above, we find that during the last 14 years about £370,000 has been expended on the 28 cathedrals and on the collegiate churches of Westminster and Windsor, of which £250,000 have been provided from chapter funds and the individual contributions of members, and £120,000 by public subscriptions. About a third of the cathedrals have special fabric funds. The fabric of St. Paul's, for instance, is maintained by a fund in the hands of trustees, independently of the Chapter and its revenue. At Exeter the repair ^ of the fabric fop rm cilarge on the.capituhlr revenues. York Minster has an ancient statutable claim to one-sixth part of the entire income of the common estates ; and at Durham it is considered that the woods of the Chapter are by statute appropriated to the repairs of the cathedral and capitular buildings. GOSPEL PEOPAGATION SOCIETY.—A meeting of the friends of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts was held on Thursday, at Enniskerry, in the county of Wicklow, which was attended by several clerto men, and a numerous assemblage of ladies. The Archbishop of Dublin presided. The first resolution was proposed by a layman (Viscount Monck). It was as fol- lows :—" That the present extent of emigration from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and the circumstances and position of settlers in a new land, im- pose upon the mother country and church the strongest obligation to provide the blessings of religious instruction for those who go forth to people our colonies." The Rev. John Grant proposed the next resolution :—" That the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, by its long, faithful, and successful exertions for evange- lizing our colonies and the heathen, deserves the cordial support of all sincere members of the Church of England and Ireland." After several addresses had been delivered, a vote of thanks to the Archbishop was agreed to, and his Grace, in responding to the compliment, spoke as follows " My Christian friends, after what has been so fully set before you, I am not going to detain you with any obser- vations in reference to the resolution you have been so good as to pass ; but I wish to remark generally, that in this, as in all other cases, I have thought it my duty, where there is an institution or society which is in itself good, never to allow myself to abandon it in despair, on account of any even real, well established faults which may exist in it, so long as there is the least hope of reme- dying those faults. I believe that 19-20ths of all that has been urged against this society is, as has been well set before you, altogether imaginary and unreal. But I never supported this society supposing that the colonial bishops, or the clergy at home, or in any part of the Church, were faultless and infallible. I considered that, the object being a good one, the only way in which I or any one else could have a chance of introducing any re- quisite improvement, is by joining and furthering the society, and by that means acquiring a certain degree of influence in it. If every one in this country were to turn rebel against the government who thinks that some acts of parliament are not perfect, and that some parts of the constitution need 'improvement, it would break up the whole frame of society, If every person were to withdraw from the Church, and from some other reli- gious community, because he saw that there was some- thing requiring amendment in the Church, but of which he would not attempt the improvement, he would very soon find that the same was the case in every other religious community that he should join, and eventually he would cease to be a member of any Christian church whatever. And so it is with all human institutions. It is with the view I have mentioned that I have always most cordially supported this society, while, at the same time, I have watched carefully for every opportunity of introducing any improvement which I thought desirable ; and I am happy to say that I believe there is very good hope of any improvement that may be needed being intro- duced. If the society itself were objectionable in its fun- damental principles, of course I should renounce it ; but we are not at liberty to renounce and abandon at once, in despair, every thing which we think admits of improve.. ment: If persons were to spread a report that no repu- table person resided in such and such a street or squareof the city, but that it was inhabited solely by disreputable persons, the declaration would very soon become a true one ; all respectable persons would abandon the locality, and it would be given up to the lowest and vilest of the population. And so it is with every human institution and every society that can possibly be formed by fallible man, Our way is to live in the Church—to live in the country—and to live as members of society—and to endea- vour to introduce into them whatever improvemen think desirable. With this view I have given my cordialneclass of to the society ; and I will just mention,oou knl,ass ow of our colonies in particular, of which n'arase 3ea haat ' lled the a most vehement opponent— deprecate the system of colonizing while I have been using scum of our population ; but n to infuse some better nArngtralithae penal colonies. I have enjeamvoeurajjedviwi'mthosttheearrnefuesstelyantod those endeavours, have also improvements have been ,an.ndotewivetillisitan of the population. I unfortunately degraded character those colonies as good as they have endeavoured to make principles even into thoseintcolosntiunecsvid system on which they had. been founded." e g, at the same time, I deprecated the TILE expense incurred in taking the census of Great Britain in 1851 was £125,487, or not quite lid. per head. LORD BYRON, writing to a friend, in the year 1807 says : " Sad news just arrived—Russians beat. A. bad set—eat nothing but oil, consequently must melt before a, hard fire." Mu. Llwx,rr, in consequence of urgent remonstrances from the public press, has been at length dismissed by Mr. Gladstone from his post of private secretary to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, which he had continued to hold notwithstanding, the exposure about the " specula- tions "in which he did not make use of his official knowleage.".

DOCK COMMITTER THE weekly meeting of this committee was held on Thursday, Mr. C. Turner presiding. The sub-committee of works recommended that the offer of Messrs. Weber and Co., to furnish wrought iron shutters for the windows at Huskisson Dock, be accepted ; that the tender of Messrs. Jones and Jump for stages for loading and unloading vessels, and of Messrs. Haigh and Co., for weather guards at the shed of Collingwood Dock, also be accepted.—Agreed to. The estimate of Mr. Duncan, the water-works surveyor, to supply hydrants and pipes to the Albert and Stanley Dock warehouses, the former at £l,OOO, and the latter at £5OO, was adopted. The sub-committee also recommended that the Dock Committee should be their own insurers of property to the dock estate, and that they should open an insurance account for that purpose, and debit the dock account with the sum they would have to pay for the same. After a conversation, the recommendation was adopted. An ap- plication was read from Messrs. D. and C. river, for land at the north-west corner of Huskisson Dock, for a coal-store for the supply of their steamers, at the proposed rent of 3s. 6d. per square yard per annum.—Complied with. The marine sub-committee produced a chart of the last survey of the Liverpool bay, and recommended that the channel be buoyed as suggested by the marine sur- veyor, and that the chart be engraved.—Agreed to. DOCK EXTENSION-A.DJOL NED DEBATE. The general business having been concluded Mr. SMITIL said, after closely investigating it appeared to him that it ought to be divid lie subject .ed under three heads, Firstly, to consider whether there is a necessity for dock extension ; and, secondly, if that be admitted, whether the scheme, submitted by the sub-committee, was a judicious or a wise one; and, thirdly, whether the recommendation of the sub-committee, to expend a sum of money to the extent of three and a half millions sterling, was calculated to benefit or to injure the interests of the present bondholders ? After minutely going into the question of the amount of accommodation and the facilities for working which were presented by the different docks, Mr. Smith contended that the details showed clearly that an absolute creased dock accommodation A necessity existed for i: _... AS a member of the Har- bour-masters' Sub-committee, he (Mr. Smith) would state that not one, or two but three or four deputations, had waited on that committee, from combined associations, who sought to obtain increased accommodation for their vessels. Most of those gentlemen were connected with lines of steamers, which-were accommodated as much as possible in the Nelson and Colliugwood Docks. Those gentlemen complained of want of accommodation, but the committee knew very well that it was utterly out of its power to do anything towards acceding to the request. On a recent occasion, the Brazilian Company's steam-packets had to r go into the r 1 Docks; but, not 1-hat plan -Arkenheau _ finding convenient, room was being sought in the docks on tins side, yet it was found impossible to appropriate to that company the berth it required. It was considered proper, ^^eommodation in the Cobourg -1 that that would do howeve Dock r, to give it ssme 1 hopes were entertain something more sufficient could be got. These foreign- going steamers were on the increase. Messrs. M`lver expected two new and very large steamers ; and, before twelve months passed away, it was sanguinely anticipated that the growth of the foreign steam trade would be such that demands would be made which could not be complied with, if there were not increased dock extension. 11r. SHAND.—That demand is already made. Mr. SMITII.—WeII, there can be no doubt of the fact I have stated, that before twelve months pass over our heads— Mr. RANICIN.—One company alone will want it. Mr. SMITH observed that he wanted the fact to go before the public as distinctly as possible; for it formed a parti- cularly strong reason with him for desiring dock exten- sion: But he also had another reason ; for a most influ- ential deputation, representatives of the corn trade, had had an interview with a special sub-committee on the subject. They pointed out that that trade was the most important of any connected with the port of Liverpool, for the import of grain amounted to 650,000 tons, which made the other trades contrast most unfavourably. They pointed out that, under the present system, great damage and loss were occasioned in consequence of want of accom- modation. They represented their losses on that account as perfectly inconceivable. But, in addition to the rea- sons already urged in favour of dock extension, there must also be added the fact of the changes that had been and were gradually wrought in shipbuilding. Some years ago, a ship of 1,200 tons was considered a monster, but now there were 2,000 or 3,000 ton ships ; and none of the docks, with the exception of the Huskisson Dock, had entrances .of more than forty or forty-five feet in width. And a class of ships were coming that could not enter any of the docks, except the Huskisson Dock. Thus, beyond all doubt, there existed au absolute necessity to provide for the future wants of the port. He (Mr. Smith) had avoided saying anything on that much-vexed question, the timber trade, as Mr. Holme had said so much on that point. But, when he came to speak of the second point in his argument he would have, of necessity, to speak of the timber trade, as it was connected with considerations of the purchase of land from Lord Derby. There had been a meeting some time ago of parties interested in the timber trade, and that meeting resulted in the formation of a committee to consider that much-vexed question, the transference of the trade to the northern end. Mr. Greg._ son was on that committee. and. indeed, was one of the most active and prominent members of it. tie never missed visiting a sub-committee. And what were his arguments ? He showed that there would not be depth of land enough at the north end to give sufficient accom- modation to the timber trade, and argued so strongly on that point that he was mainly instrumental in inducing that committee to come to the opinion that the trade ought not to be carried there. Mr. Smith then proceeded to define the scheme as being a most desirable and proper one. He afterwards adverted to the projected purchase of land from Mr. Leigh, which he considered advisable, as it was contiguous to the present docks. He considered that it was a positive necessity to purchase that land, in order to provide accommodation for . that large class of ships whose arrival he had anticipated. He then entered into other financial calculations in order to support his arguments, and finally concluded by expressing a hope that the committee would unanimously decide on the im- portant project then before it. If it should decide adversely, he (Mr. Smith) would have the consolation of thinking that he had relieved his own conscience of all responsibility. Mr. EVANS, after a pointed allusion to the observations made by Mr. Bigham at the last meeting when the subject was discussed, proceeded to criticise and condemn the plan adopted by the committee, in reference to the Harrington Dock Scheme. He next insisted that the Dock Committee are in possession of land which would enable it to extend the dock accommodation very materially. He proposed that the extension should be gone on with cautiously, and only in accordance with the real requirements of the port. Mr. ROYDEN remarked that although considerable promise had been held out relative to accommodating the shipbuilding and boiler. makers' interests, no portion of land had been marked out as for their use on the plans. He expressed himself as in favour generally of the scheme, but objected to many of its details. After a discussion of some length, in which several members of the committee took part, the chairman took the votes, first upon an amendment, moved by Mr. Evans and seconded by Mr. Barber, referring. the consideration of the plans back to the committee, with instructions to take the old plans of 1849 as a basis, rejecting the proposed canal and dock, and limiting the immediate works at the north to about twenty-eight acres, to the graying docks, and the docks on the land east of Huskisson Dock. For the amendment—Messrs. Healing, Evans, and Barber. Against—The Chairman, and Messrs. Shand, Lockett, Chaloner, Rankin, Brocklebauk, Bigham, Smith, Rounth- waite, Tobin, Holme, Palmer, Langsdale, Robinson, Little- dale, Gregson, and Royden. . Amendment negatived by 17 to 3. Mr. ROBINSON then proposed, as an amendment, that the purchase from Lord Derby and Mr. Leigh be approved, and that the powers be limited thereto, and to the pur- chase of the land from Mr,3lolyneu.s. y...... 7, ~.. „,................. _.._._ _ _..., _ __ .

WEDNESDAY. The Court met at nine o'clock, and resumed hearing the case of Read and Others v. Aikin and others. Evidence for the plaintiff was continued, the purport of which was, that if the second steam-tug had remained, and rendered such assistance as she was quite able to have done, the David G. Fleming might have been got into dock safely; and that, under the circumstances of the case, every reimmigs, Preol4l9u J 4 beep taken, on the part of tlits plaintiffs, to have the vessel removed in safety from the dock-gate and taken to au anchorage in the river. The dock-master said that she had all but cleared the bank when the accident happened, and that two inches more of _ _ would have floated her over. For the defence it was contended that, on getting the David G. Fleming into dock, the second tug was of no further use; and that it was in accordance with the ordinary and generally obserxed practice for her to leave at the time she did. Evidence in support of this view was adduced at great length. It was also contended that the damage sustained did not necessarily arise out of the unsuccessful endeavour to have the ship put into dock.—His LORDSHIP, after alluding to the nature of the claim, and of the defence, and remarking upon the pecuniary damage in- volved in the case, although the jury would not be required to pronounce an opinion as to that amount, as if the verdict were in favour of the plaintiff, that would be made a matter of reference, then, with much minuteness, went over the various points of the evidence, remarking that, in many instances, the witnesses on each side per- fectly agreed. He next directed the attention of the jury to the points on which they disagreed, stating that the points at issue in a very great degree depended on the fact of assistance being rendered at a critical period of the tide. On this there appeared to be no conflict of opinion between the parties ; although considerable disparity ensted in the evidence as to the particular nature and amount of the assistance required, and rendered. From all of which, however, it appeared that, if the Express steam-tug had remained, and if her power had been applied in endeavours to extricate the ship, she would have been got off. At all events, such was the bearing and body of the evidence for the plaintiff. He next, in the same minute and painstaking manner, went over the evidence for the defence, making such remarks as to bring the tendency of that evidence clearly before the jury, remarking that, in a great degree, the case turned on the particular time at which the operations were carried into effect, as related to the ebbing or the flowing of the tide. He further remarked that much of the case necessarily depended on the fact that the vessel, by the efforts made, could not be docked at all ; the contract being in the usual terms for docking the ship. - It seemed, however, to be a prevalent notion among the tug-people, that the second or starboard tug should go away whenever the ship has got her stern in so far as the dock-gate, unless ordered to remain by the pilot or harbour-master, or some party in authority. All the evidence went strongly to establish as a fact, that the presence of the second steam-tug would have been of very great utility. An important element for the jury to consider would be, whether the damage sustained was such as might be reasonably anticipated to arise from the breach of the contract. If such damage could not have been fairly anticipated, or if the plaintiffs had been guilty of any manifest impropriety, from which impropriety the damage might have arisen, they would not be entitled to recover. He considered the jury might have three different forms of verdict—the first, for the defendants, in which case Cher would be an end of the matter; the second, for the plaintiffs, with nominal damages, which would be to the effect, that the defendants had been morally guilty of a breach of contract, but without being responsible for the absolute damage received; or, they might find for the plaintiffs, with substantial damages ; in which latter case, the amount would be a mat- ter of reference. The jury retired at five minutes to nine a'clock, and, after a quarter of an hour's absence, returned a verdict for the plaintiffs, with nominal damages. The Court then adjourned.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE WAR NEVER, perhaps, in any war, did so many amateurs ac- company, at least one of the belligerent armies, and, per- haps, never did any war disappoint the military world so much as this one. The campaign of 1853 reduces itself to one small combat (Oltenitza), between three battalions entrenched, and a brigade in the open country—a fight which, in the wars of Napoleon, would have been looked upon as an every-other-day affair, and which, in the pre- sent instance, would have been of no importance, but for being the first time the Turks had tried their arms against the Russians since their new European organisation. The whiter was employed by them in looking at each other at lialafat across indifferent entrenchments, and in making and resisting one ill-managed sally at Csitate ; the want 'of information on the part of the Turks during the whole period being so ridiculous that they imagined they had •constantly 30,000 or 40,000 men in their front, whereas it turns out that there never were much abovel2,ooo. How- ever, during the winter, every one prognosticated fighting in earnest—no child's play in the spring. Month after month slipped by. The great bugbear, the Russian army, would be across the Danube, and the fate of Turkey, or Bulgaria at any rate, would hang on the chances of one great battle. At length the bugbear is roused from his lair, and crosses the Danube. , Every one anticipates that long marches and skilful strategic manoeuvres, on the one hand or the other, will illustrate some principle which had been discovered and recognised during the last war. Nothing of the sort. The bugbear advances most " gin gerly" on Silistria, and lays siege to it in the most unen- terprising manner. Every one wonders at the extent and beauty of the works which the engineers' department exc• cuted, but all of a defensive nature; the. offensive ones being ill-directed, and the siege of a wretched earthen redoubt, defended by an undisciplined body, ending in a failure, after losing a very great number of men and officers, and expending an enormous amount of ammuni- tion and labour. Then arrives the Anglo-French contin- gent. They break ground by throwing up a series of field-works near Gallipoli, hundreds of miles from the theatre of actual war. At length they embark for Varna, whence every one anticipates a series of brilliant manceu vres, ending in a tremendous action—won, of course, by the allied armies. Wrong once more. The only aid sent to Silistria, whose garrison was in expectation of being relieved by the united armies, is two engineer officers, who arrive the very day the Russians raise the siege. Then succeeds a bungling, ill-conducted passage of the Danube by the Turks, entihig in their forcing the Russians to retire a day or two sooner than they had intended. Nor have the navies done more. The bombardment ea few unimportant places is all that, up to the present, they have to boast of. The French and English armies are thoroughly disgusted, andthe general wish is to be out of the whole affair, if there were only any means availdble df getting out of it with honour. The amateurs are riot the least so. To have to undergo all manner of privations and disagreeables,whose name in Turkey is legion, with- out a single thingto repay them for it, is more than was bargained for. Nor will military history or the military art have been the gainers by one single fact. We shall never see any occurrence of this war, up to the present, quoted in any book, except, perhaps, as an example to be warned by. It will have done two things, however, were affairs to be stopped at the present stage, viz., Russia will no longer be a bugbear, and the world will be completely desillusioni as to 'Furkey.-llforniny Chronicle. DEUIDISM.—The second anniversary of the Good Sa- maritan Lodge took-place on Monday last, at the house of Host Tyrer, Clement-street ; Dr. Marsh, the surgeon to the club, occupying the chair, ably supported by P. A. Robin- son and P. A. Tyrer, the vice-chair being filled by R. A. Hivey. Several excellent speeches and songs kept the company in good humour -until a late hour. FORESTERS' FESTIVAL AT BIRICENREAD.—Yesterday the streets of Birkenhead resounded with the din of a baud marching at the head of a procession formed of the members of several lodges of the " Ancient Order of Foresters" held in Birkenhead and its vicinity. The pro- cessionists met opposite the Craven-rooms, at ten o'clock in the forenoon, and after parading the streets of the township, they dined together at Mr. Wingfield's, George and Dragon Hotel, Grange:lane. The day was wound.up by a ball at the Britannia-rooms, Lower Tranmere. THE BIBLE.—A wretched monomaniac, styling himself " The Rev. Joseph Barker, formerly Methodist Preacher," desirous of emulating the infamous notoriety of Tom Paine, has been delivering •leetures during the week at the New Music Hall, in Bold-street, to prove that the Bible is not divinely inspired. This blasphemous attack led, of course, to opposition, and the meeting became so disorderly that the interference of the police was rendered necessary. If the proprietor of the hall permit it to be used for purposes of profanation, and in open violation of the bads of our belief, he may.and that, when devoted to a less objectionable purpose, the public will be inclined to refuse their patronage. THE CHOLEHA rNEDrwsuxtcll.—After several months' ,cessation, cholera has reappeared in Edinburgh within the last few days. it seems to have arisen from the simulta- neous importation of it by persons coming from different in- fected districts. In consequence.of the outbreak a meeting of the Sanitary Committee, consisting of representatives of the police and parochial boards, wasield on Wednesday. Upzto that morning 12 cases were reported as having occurred in Edinburgh, and one in Leith. Of the 12 ,cases, the three that first occurred were imported, and were all, we understand, fatal. One was a passenger, .seizedron the way from London, on board the steam-ship Trident ; another was master of a small vessel plying from Alloa or Limekilns to Leith; and the third was a man coraing7eom Airdrie, who had taken lodgings in the Ca- nougate, and whose case was followed by Aix others in the neighbourhood, three of them proving fatal. In two other spontaneous cases death had ensued after a few hours' ill- ness. In only four cases were the patients reported as not yet dead,,or:as likely to recover. The case in Leith was fatal after.a :brief illness. With regard to the state of the tity, the Lord Provost expressed his belief that the city had during the past three or four months been cleaner ex- ternally at least, than it had ever before been in its,hintory. Medical reports as to the very healthy state of the town before this outbreak were also referred to. Ma. PENNY'S Re...VIS' STRAITS EXPRDITION.—Acconnts have just come to hand from Captain Penny, of the Lady Franklin, that his expedition to Davis' Straits, hi fur- therance of a project of a resident whale fishery, has been most successful. He is now at Aberdeen with the Lady Franklin full of boiled oil, and the Sophia is expected to follow, also a bumper ship. It. will be remembered that the crew of an American whaler, wrecked in Davis' Straits three years ago, bad succeeded in killing during their residence at Kumsooka some eight or nine whales. This fact, coupled with Captain Penny's large experience in the Arctic regions, led him to propose that a resident fishery should be established there, and that a commercial com- pany, under royal charter, should engage in the enter- prise. It was intended, also, to work some plurnbago mines which were known to be in the district ; but the project was not sustained by government, and fell through. Captain Penny, however, was supported by a few commer- cial gentlemen who had the fullest confidence in his specu- lation, and the Lady Franklin and Sophia, Arctic explor- ing ships, were purchased and fitted out in Aberdeen for the expedition last year. Both ships were supplied with tanks for the oil, and the necessary arrangements were made for encountering a winter's residence in the Straits, in order to be ready for the first opportunity of getting at the fish in the spring. Two hardy crews were engaged, and provision was also made for the moral and spiritual good of the natives among whom Captain Penny ex- pected to have to reside. The ships sailed in July last year, and this is the first news we have of them since that time. In a commercial point of view, the speculation will be a most profitable one, the oil alone being worth es,ooo, while a large sum will be realised for some ten or irate tQ a 9f Wu%
