TET. Mor( .an local importance has been atta.chedtoa.case heard before the Luton Bench, and if the decision of the justices should stand, m-kn v difficulties may be anticipated to arise among manufacturers not onlv in the trade imme- diately concerned, but in others also. The defendants were the firm of Lewis. Hailing, and Pearce, straw hat manu- facturers, of Luton and Dunstable, and they were charged, under the Trades Marks Registration Act, with pirating a design of Louise and Co., of London and Paris. From the evidence, which was very voluminous, it appeared that the complainants, immediately after the loss of the celebrated Gainsborough picture, registered a design in hats in many respects resembling that worn by the Duchess in the portrait. Recently the prosecutors ascertained that this design was being manufactured by the defendants and others, and they instituted the present proceedings. The defendants disputed the right of property in the design claimed by the complainants, and produced witnesses to prove that the shape was but a modernised edition of a very old pattern fashionable in the last century. Photographs of the stolen portrait were also put in. After a long hearing, the chairman said the bench had given every attention to the case, and they were obliged somewhat reluctantly to come to the conclu- sion that there was an infringement of the design, as it differed in some important particulars from those produced by the defence. They had, therefore, no alternative but to send the case before a jury. At the same time they had thought it one of those exceptional cases which the Legis- lature did 110 contemplate when the Act was passed. That being so. they felt they should not be doing right in stand- ing in the way of an amicable arrangement, could such be effected. The prosecutors having intimated through their counsel that these proseedings had been taken more with a view of establishing their right than vindictively, au adjournment of the case f(i. vas agreed to.

MR, FORSTER, M.P., ON" COMPETITION. In the course of his remarks, when presiding at the distribution of prizes at the Commercial Travellers Schoolt Mr. Porster, M.P., said Competition was keen nowa- days. and it was not confined within this country, but Eng- land had to compete with other countries. Time was when we were almost safe from competition, but th* time had now passed away. It was well for the world that it had: and if the commercial position and the character of England were to be maintained,it was essential that her people should have as good an education as existed on the Continent. H was difficult, for instance, to over-es- timate the loss to England through her commercial men not knowing French and Gorman. For himself, he would almost sell all he had acquired at school for the knowledge of those two languages. Between Bradford and Germany and Bradford and Russia there was a consi- derable trade. Bradford made the goods which Germany and Russia bought. Someone had to arrange the exchange of those goods. There was no reason in the world why those people should not ba English. Generally speak- ing, they were, however, Germans. Why ? Because the yoting men of Germany received such an education that they were able to conduct complicatsd bargains in a foreign country. Both German and French should be learnt in England. Germany had now become a more important country than it was before. When he was in America he was struck with a remark made at an enormous school in New York—perhaps the largest training school for girls in the world. He was told that the pupils all learnt eilher French or German. He said. "Most of them French, I suppose?" The reply] was-and here was iliewn the practical American '—" About two-thirds learnt French before the battle of Sedan, but about nine-tenths learn German now." He did not want them to judge of suc- cess in that way or forget that France was a srrand country—with an industrious people, who possessed a magnificent literature. He had observed that the scholars had a great knowledge of the Bible. It was by acquaintance with its precepts and study of the life of Him with it dealt that they would be good men and good women—that they would succeed as men of business, and be able to bear up against domestic suffering and disaster.

A BISHOP ON BELIEF AND EXAMPLE. At the Chapel Royal, Savoy, the Bishop of Manchester has preached to an aristocratic and crowded congregation. In the course of his sermon, he remarked that articles of faith which did not bear on conduct were of secondary, not primary, importance. The preacher exhorted his hearers to cultiva-te the Christian temper. Study as far as you! can (he continued) to p-omote high and noble aims. Try to purify that tainted moral air in which you who move in high society, as well as poor ignorant Lancashire folk who kick their wives to death, are sorely perplexed and sorely tried. The peril uf the day, as was well pointed out some time ago by a writer in the Spectator, is lest the decomposition of belief should atfect and degrade the tone ot human life. I seldom come to London, and I don't know the spirit of its society, except at. secondhand, but we living far off from London hear strange tales of the tone of the London society of to-day. Is it rising or is it falling, and what is the barometer by which to test the level at which it stands? And here in London. let me venture to say, there is a grave responsibility resting upon those who are what is called tho leaders of society. Their example spreads far and wide. You know there are certain conditions of the atmosphere which are said to be un- favourable to the development of epidemic disease. There are other conditions when it spreads small-pox, or scarlet fever, or* typhus fever, like a lire upon tho prairie and men tell me that the present •jnditions, the conditions of our moral atmosphere, are favourable to the spread of contagious disease. A Roman satirist, who lived in all age not altogether dissimilar from our own, and who saw young Parthian3 and Asiatics coming up from their far off country homes to Msto the joys and incur the perils of a Roman season, says" they go back to their homes with the seeds of that deadly poison imbibed in Rome, ready to dilfase them everywhere. Su;pratUztatos rej'cruut Artaxata mores. So they take ofi to their distant provincial capital the manners they leanit in high society at Rome." The bishop then advised the use, without scruplo, of all means which people iound really hlped them to lead a Chiistian life: and after a reference to Punch's cartoon of the housemaid in a High Church family, mentioned that although no one had a greater dread than he had of the introduction Ot the confessional, yet he had felt unable to forbid it, when one cf his most earnest and gifted clergymen represented it to him as the chief instrument he cov.ld use to keep young men pure. Under those ciicumstances he dared not forbid it, but ho warned the clergyman not to deceive himelf and others. His last, point was—Don't disturb the faith of others, I pray. I can hardly measure the responsibility of those who, with a ]au«'h or a careless hint, fire those deadly pistols, those many chambcred revolvers of scepti- cal argument in cur stre&tg, recking not where the ball may go. "0 thou! that after toil and storm May seem to have reached a purer air, Whose faith has centred everywhere, Nor cares to fix itself to form.— Leave thou thy sister when she prays Her early heaven, her happy views, Nor thou with shadowed hint confuse The life th:tt leads melodious da.ys." No, my friends, we dare not attempt to confuse, and disturb the simple faith of our brother, our eister, our child. Woe to us, if we do. Nor. 011 the other hand, have we a right to judge too hardly what we call the errors of belief which characterise other men. We call them errors I know not whether one day they may not be seen to be truths. At any rate, where the Church has not spoken we have no right to sneak, and if the Church had spoken, 1 should be slow to launch her anathemas. I would rather leave those cases to the judgment of Almighty God. and I feel sure that in the judgment of the Great Day there will be t-h3 grace, the grace of forgiveness oc involuntary error, the gracc of clear insight to &ee truths which are now hidden iromour gas*.

DEATH OF AN OLD BOW-STREET PUNNER. In the same journals which announced the death of the late Sir Thomas Henry there appeared a simple record of the decease pf William Ballard, an the advanced age of 84- one of the most famous of the old Bow-»treet runners. Ballard received his first promotion in 1823. at the Marlborough-street office," having earned his appointment by repeated acts of daring and skill, by which some of the most notorious characters of the day were brought to justice. Sir F. Rowe, who succeeded Sir R. Birnie as chief magistrate, subsequently drew the attention of the Home Secretary to the ability of Ballard, and thus caused his further promotion to Bow-street, where he became one of the principal offi- cers. He was the last representative but one of what may be regarded as the old school of Metropolitan police. The only surviving member of the staff now is Mr. Harrv Goidard, who entered the service in .1S24, and was for many years employed in the investigation of deli- cate and important matters, in many instances at the instigation of the Government of the day. He was also entrusted with momentous political inquiries on behalf of foreign potentates, and uas a special favourite of Louis Philippe, the King ot the French. For several years it became his province to keep a watchful eye on the movements of a certain foreign duke, and to report the result of his observations through Sir F. Rowe to King William IV. • Goddard likes to tell how on one eventful occasion he was honoured with an invita- tion to his Majesty by Sir Hubert Taylor, and made a special verbal report to the King. The profes- sional duties of Goddard took him into nearly every quarter of the globe. He has traced and captured fugitives in the North cf America and beyond the Rocky Mountains, one of his best '-hauls" being the capture, of a party who had fled from Paris to New York with about half a million of money belonging to the Chemin de F^r du Nord Company. On another occasion he chased a delinquent to Cairo, in Egypt, and thence to George's Sound, to Geelong. Balhtrat, finally alighting upon his prey at Scott's Hotel, Melbourne. Goddard is still in the service of the Crown and almost as hale and hearty as ever; and it is understood that he is employing his leisure hours in writing his autobiography, which he intends-to bequeath 3 a legacy to his family.

L-. -=- ■" »< >- I OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT, ——-—<*———- LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING. Well clone, Mr. Faweett I did not agree with you that it was wrong to charge India with part of the Prince's vUIlt-I aid not see why India should not help to pay for Royalty as well as England. Bat nohcdy yho considers the subject very candidly but will he with YOU in regard to the India Museum. Mr. Fawcett asks whether, before any charge is thrown upon the revenues of India for the erection :nd maintenance of pn Indian museum in London, the House will be afforded an opportunity of considering whether it ia just to make the people of India contribute to the expense of erecting and maintaining a museum." This musetim is for Londoners. It is an additional pleasure for Cockneys, another place of amusement combined with instruction," as we call our exhibitions. Why r-houbl India pay for this 1 The Hindus might as -well charge us with the cost of an Euglish museum in Calcutta. Mr. Robert Buchanan's drama was produced at the Lyceum bst night. It dtsals with the events of the first devolution. Corinne," an actress, lias been privately married to the Comte de Calva- dor but the Church prohibits an alliance between aristocracy und the stage, and the Archbishop of Paris forbids the nuptials, when they come to be publicly celebrated, from the very steps of the The instrument which has called forth this prohibition is the Abbe de Las Rose, who is suffer- ing from the rejecliorf of his own unlicensed passion, and wrecks his vengeance by wrecking the happiness of the woman who, too pure to be his mistress, would become the wife of a Count. At^ the altar, on the command of the Arch- bishop, Oaivador leaves his wife, and loses sight of her completely until the terrible day when the Bastille fell. He seeks to trace ^er in the gardens of infamy belonging to the Abbe, on the night of a fet-e. There she comes to him that his death is resolved upon, but shrinks from telling him when alio finds him Citable with her enemy. He misunderstands her pre- sence.. too, and they denounce each other's dishonour ost roundly. While they are at it the mob comes in. The Abbe and the Count are seized and we &rd them next in prison, being tried by the citi- zens under the superintendence of Marat. Abject is how the ecclesiastic even-Corinne, who has come to the prison to save her husband, raises no voice "of pity for him. But she saves the Count, by de- manding him as her prey. He is given up to her &nd at last they understand each other they fly into each other's amis everything is to end hap- pily but fche dies at that moment of heart disease, brought on by her own exertions in husnand d behalf. It will be seen that the^ play is full of strong situations, -urs. Fairfax, who acted Corinne, has a magnificent part, and although the dialogue does not always gbde, it might be made to tell. But Mrs. Fairfax "^as unequal to her part she seemed dying of ner- "^ousness instead of heart disease; and her sup- porters were poor. Marat is not bad. The Abbe is good. But Mr. Forrester, who astonished he town with lago some weeks ago, was stagey in the extreme. The critic of the "Fleshly chool of Poetry, as Mr. Buchanan called the Pre- Ratfae Hites, must expect some severe retorts, 1 fear that his play will have no better success than greater poet's. Corinne is doomed with the tate of Queen Mary." The King or the Belgians is very anxious fo1- -fcrtghsh approval of the International Exhibition at •Brussels, and, visiting the place yesterday, paid compliments to the British section. But I very much afraid, on looking through the'eata- ^°gue, that we have not come out so strongly as /e might do. England has sent across only 250 ^ticles. It is true that they come from an pwis- London, Newcastle, Plymouth, Gateshead, Gla sgow, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manches- ty\'an<i every other considerable town. The Home J^Ce> our principal societies, some of our chief ^anu facta revs, have"contributed. But their con- ^outions are not of their best. If Philadelphia i°- not call foith British energy, wi;y should ^usse's? Trade is too depressed jfor the luxury of «*hibi Lions. i'he Emperor of Austria has reigned for so many yeuxs—28—that the world has almost forgotten he his a father still living. The Archduke Franz j j^rl is nearly 74, but is still hale and hearty, and ras just gone to Paris, whence he goes co Brussels iQ order to seethe Exhibition of Hygiene. General Stephenson relieves Prince Edward in jto'-imiand of the Home District on the 1st prox. Under somewhat singular circumstances General Harainge, who has clu. nja of it Bengal division, was for the post, and brought over to this onntr-y for the purpose of entering on the duty. But her Majesty's Guards had determined to have ^fctphenscn as their brigadier,so the moment it was ^s^ertaifipd on whom the Duke's choice had fallen fchere was, among both officers and men, an un- ^esqrved expression of disappointment and regret. Ge,ie ril Stephenson, whose merits as a soldier are known, went on half-pay for the purpose of Petting this appointment, whilst Hardinge, who had been in full pay all the time, actually held a good position on the staff. So strong a feeling was displayed that it became necessary for those in au- thority to remind General Hardinge of this; and the is he rt Lorns at once to India,and General Ste- t'hensoxi succeeds thePrince. who hnsheld office just year and four months beyond the usual time. It frinst not bo presumed, however, that his Serene highness will remain long unemployed. On the 3rd he takes command of a division of militia for a toonth. Then, when he has obtained another step, we must not be surprised to hear of the resignation ()f a distinguished lieutenant-general in his favour. How happy Portsmouth ought to be should it have two such able commanders residing in it as Saxe. ^Veimur and Leiningen One dot's not generally connect sailors with 6 icket. But the crew of her Majesty's ship Chal- lenger, while calling at the Cape de Verde Islands, flayed a match with the St. Vincent Club, on a ground which, being based on volcanic soil, is not very good and it is roh likely to improve. The Challengers scored 109 runs to the St. Vincents' '16, which is ot bad for men who had, for the best part of three years, been shut up in what Dr. Johnson calls a prison with the chance of being I drowned." Poor Lord Sandhurst is to be buried to-morrow. The body is to be taken by train into Hertford- shire, and tlion carried to Digswell Church, near Weluyn. It is probable that the funeral proces- sion will be distinguished, if not long. Lord Sand- burst was the own familiar friend of most of the Lineral leaders, and some of them will he certain to attend his funeral. Digswell Church is the family burial place of the Mansfields, It is feared that one of the new Indian Bishops- designate will not be consecrated after all. Dr. Caldwell, who has for so many years laboured hard In India as a niisd-mary, and who had been chosen as one of tho two new bishops for the Madras I Presidency, is so serionsiy unwell from overwork that he has been obliged to abandon the idea of Undertaking episcopal labours, at all events for the present. Mdllo. Chnpuy, whose approaching marriage was anroinecd lately, is very seriously ill. She is suffering from acute bronchitis and severe I whooping c-tugii. There is no possibility of her ap- pearing on the stage this season. Nilo^on will soon be revisiting her native land, !cr the lirsi. Lliile professionally since she became a ¡ Nubile singer. She will commence a tour in kor.vay and Sweden early in August.

It is estimated that at least 22,01)0 will be forthcoming for the work, so that the com- mission will be worth getting. Mr. Burne Jones, like Messrs. Rossetti and Madox Brown, affects mystery. Like them, he declines to exhibitill public. Formerly, some most, eccentric mediaeval subjects of his were shewn at; the Water Colour Society. They were notable for j the dislocated condition of limbs from which his human figures generally suffered. They were much laughed at by t ho uninitiated; but a small clique; swore that they were the finest things out. Mr.. Jones has lately been painting some large pictures, and what they are like may be seen in the last number of the Atlmidum. But the account is written by such au enthusiastic admirer that it must be largely discounted Mr. Smallev, who lias lived for so many years anions us as "London correspondent of the New York0 Tribune, has left us. He and his family sailed from Liverpool last wo»k. I believe that they will not return here. Mr. and Mrs. Sartoris also are on their way back to the States. It will be remembered that the latter ia General Grant's daughter, and lately lost her child. Sir J. W. Ramsden can afford to make a few bad investments, or to have them made for him, when he is able to lot; a single deer forest for two months at a rent of £3,600, as he has just done in Scotland.

.1 ITEMS OF GENERAL NEWS. Mr. Joseph Chamberlain was nominated at Birmingham yesterday, and, there being no other candidate, was duly elected. The Irish Wesleyan Conference has decided that in future the conference should be constituted of equal num- bers of laymen and ministers. During the early part of the proceedings at a sham fight at Aldershot, a spiendid charger, belonging to and ridden by Colonel T. D. Baker, assistant Adjutant-General, dropped des-d on the field. In the library of the Royal College of Physicians Sir William Jenner has delivered the annual oration in memory of Harvey, the discoverer of the circulation of 1 the blood. It is stated that the Hurlingham Club has generously sent £ 250 to the Canadian and Indian teams of La Crosse players, in consideration of their two days' play in the grounds at Fulham. At Pellir.uham, two lads, named John Armstrong. 14, and William Wilson, 14. iiave been drowned while bathing and William Wilson, 14. have been drowned while bathing in the Ladder Pool, North Tyne. A tailor named pobson swam to the assistance of the boys, and he also was drowned. The recent criminal proceedings which were taken against the publisher of Vanity Fair for some comments respect- ing the Native Guano Company have ended in the grand jury at the Central Criminal Court throwing out the bill of indictment. Two men, named John MDoniiell and William Hickey, have been tried in Dublin for attempting to drown police- sergeant Reynolds. The jury could not agree, and were discharged, but the prisoner3 were detained in order to be tried again. At Frog Island. Chelsea, Police constable 306 B, has been so severely injured by a number of roughs who had a grudge against him and attacked him with bricklayers' shovels, that his life is now despaired of. Four of the men implicated in the affair have been arrested. At the Clerkenwell Police-court, yesterday morning, William Cole, a carpenter, was committed for trial en a charge of causing the death of Thomas Fay by kicking him in the abdomen at Payne-street, Islington. The pri- soner, who reserved his defence, was admitted to bail in two sureties of £ 30 each. Some experiments have been tried with a steam fire engine on Canterbury Cathedral. The result of the trials seemed to be that, with proper arrangements as to hose and water supply, a copious stream of water might be brought to bear on any part of the towers or roof of the cathedral. A verdict of manslaughter has been returned by the A verdict of manslaughter has been returned by the coroner's jury at Hackney asainst Alfred Stubbing, in the case of the young man named Cuthbertson, who was beaten about the head with a walking-stick and died from the effects of the blows he received. The coroner severely censured the cabman who saw the affair, and has failed to come forward to give evidence. At Sittingbourne Police-court, George Reede. master of the ship Princess Royal, has been charged under the Merchant Shipping Act for employing an unqualified pilot: off Garrison Point, Sheerness. The defendant was con- victed and fined 16 16s. (Id., including R5 2s., double pilotage. John Laws, a waterman, was fined Y,6 for acting as an unqualified pilot on the ship Princess Royal. A distressing case of drowning has occurred at Babbi- combe. Two sisters, named Ada and Alice Jane Owen, aged respectively eighteen and fifteen, daughters of the widow of a captain in the merchant service, were bathing, when they got out of their depth, and became frightened. The elder sister was rescued in a very exhausted state, but all efforts to restore the younger lady to consciousness were unavailing. From the East terrace at Windsor Castle, her Majesty, Princess Beatrice, Prince Leopold, Prince Christian, and the Royal Household have witnessed the game of '■ La Crosse by the Canadian players, who went to Windsor for the purpose. The Indian Chief read an address to the Queen, who graciously replied, and presented her por- trait to each of the party, who, after being entertained at the Castie, returned-to London. A public meeting has been held at Leamington,at which Mr. Henry Taylor was presented with an address and a purse of 100 sovereigns on his resigning the office of general secretary of the National Agricultural Labourers' Union, which lie has held since the commencement of the movemc/it. Letters were read from several members of Parliament, and speeches were delivered by Mr. Joseph Arch, and \h. Ball, the vice-president. Captain TMer. reporting to the Board of Trade on the accident that occurred to the Great Western express, known as the Flying Dutchman, on May :24, through the wheels leaving the rails, points out that it ili incumbent on the Great Western Company, in undertaking to run these fast trains, to take care that their permanent way is in proper condition for the weight of the engines and the speed at which they are employed. The train was running at the rate of CO miles an hour. The strike of the Bristol masons, which affected 1,000 hands, has been settled. The maslerg have conceded the halfpenny advance asked for by the masons, who will now be paid 8d. per hour, and the operatives on their part have consented to certain modifications of the working rules of the trade, which, it is believed, will prove beneficial to both parties. The principal feature of the new working rules is the establishment of a board of conciliation for the settlement of disputes. Three brothers, named Alexander, James, and John Mitchell, aged respectively sixteen, twel e. and ten years, were bathing in the river Isla, Perthshire, when the cur- rent carried the younger out of his depth. His brother James plunged in to save him, but was swept away and drowned. Alexander then dived after John, who was floating on the surface of the water, and after a desperate si^uf-gle^succeeded in bringing him ashore in & state of utter exhaustion. The body of James was afterwards re- covered from a hole of great depth. Several tliousbncl South Staffordshire miners have held their annual demonstration at Tipton. Resolutions were passed rejoicing at the present peace between masters and men m South Staffordshire, advocating conciliation and arbitration and congratulating working men upon the'r legislative successes during recent years. It was decidcd to petition Parliament in favour of Mr. Macdonald's Compensation Bill and the assimilation of the county and borough franchise. Mr. Halliday, the Secretary of the National Association, said the union numbered about 1H0,000 members, 14,000 of whom were in South Stafford- shire. A party of four men. apparently artisans, got into a large boat at Roundhay Park, Leeds, and rowed on the Waterloo Lake. They had not been more than ten minutes in tho boat when it either filled or capsised. and they were all thrown into the water. Two of them were drowned one of the others swam ashore, and the fourth man \y;, S picked up by a boat. It is su .1 that ail of them had been drinking. There is some conflict of testimony as to the cause of the accident. According- to one account they were endeavouring to recover an oar another statement is that they wtre when the boat Iled. The bodies were afterwards recovered. Mrs. Parker, of Dundee, Scotland, was elected president of the Women's International Temperance Convention, which was opened at Philadelphia on the 12th June. The following letter, dated Buckingham Palace, and written by General Biddulph in the name of the Queen, in reply to one sent by Mrs. Witteninger, president of the Women's Temperance Union of Philadelphia, was lead :—" Dear madam.—I &m desired to acknowledge the receipt of your letter to the Queen and the paper on tho' Women's Inter- national Convention,' to which it is desired that her Majesty may send representatives. 1 am to say that the Queen cannot interfere in this matter, and it must be left With UM Bublio of thia oountriu"
