The House is seated in the midst of beautiful timber, and has every necessary appendage of stabling, coach-house, kennel, numerous out-buildings, and farm-yard. The interior arrangements are very convenient, viz.- on the ground floor a dining-room, drawing-room, morn- ing-room, and complete domestic offices a light stair- case from an inner vestibule leads to eight principal and secondary bedrooms. The land is of very superior quality, and comprises, free of plantations, 90 acres or thereabout with two cot- tages. A pack of Hounds meet twice a week in the neighbourhood.

SANGUINETTI 52, Regent-street, §" 163, Fenchurch-street, London, ARMY AND NAVY CLOTHIER, rpAKES the opportunity of drawing attention to the I perfection to which he has now brought the con- struction of that most difficult article of dress-TROU- SERS. The material has been expressly manufactured for him, and it possesses such elasticity that, cut on his peculiar plan, neither Braces or Straps are requisite, and the Trousers consequently combine with the most fashion- able and elegant style the greatest possible comfort to the wearer. The style of his COATS are so well known throughout the different kingdoms as to need no comment. The materials used are of first-class-being only West of England and Scotch. r He begs further to mention that for the Leather De- partment be has secured the services of MR. NICHOLL, the eminent maker of the prepared Leather Shooting Coats, Hunting Breeches, &c., late of Pall Mall and Lombard-street, who received Prince Albert's Certificate and Medal, and was most highly commended in the Re- port of the Royal Commission of the Great Exhibition of 1851 The Leather used for hunting and for other garments is manufactured under his immediate personal inspection, and the qualities are in every respect unsur- passed. The Waterproof Leather Shooting Gaiters and Leg- gings have received the highest patronage, and maintained an unrivalled position amongst all manufacturers for more than 40 years It is almost unnecessary to say that for every article made in F. B. Sanguinetti's establishment, none but the best and choicest materials are used,—that the Work- manship is of the highest class, and the Cutting per- formed by the best British and Foreign Artists, under F. B. Sanguinetti's immediate personal inspection. The business of the City Branch will be conducted in the same vigorous manner that has been the characteristic I of F. B. Sanguinetti's establishment at Regent-street. Orders for outfits to India and the Colonies executed and dispatched by the return mail. INCOME WITHOUT RISK.

Hird's Francis's Pills HAVE been extensively made use of in this country lor nearly 30 years, are most deservedly recom- mendei for their known efficacy in all bilious complaints diseases of the liver, indigestion, flatulency, jaundice, sick headache, habitual costiveness, and all diseases of the alimentary canal. In recent attacks of the gout it has nearly proved a specific, by alleviating the severity of the fit and shortening its duration; they are also highly advantageous to those who are liable to occasional in- dulgence at table. Europeans visiting the East and West Indies and other warm climates will find them an inva- luable medicine, and by their early use may escape those dreadful diseases which the disordered state of the liver but too frequently creates. CAn'tox.—'t he high repute in which these pills are held has induced some unprincipled individuals to foist a spurious imitation of them on the public be careful to ask for Hird's Francis's Antibilious Pills, which are signed 'J.

IIIS preparation IS one of the benefits which the science of modern chemistry has conferred upon mankind; for during: the first twenty years of the present century to speak of a cure for the Gout was considered a romance: hut now, the efficacy I and safety of) his medicine is so fully demonstrated by unsolicited testimonials from persons in every rank of life, that public opi- nion proclaims this as one of the most important discoveries of the present age; and in testimony of its efficacy, Mr. W. Burch, Chemist, West Bromwich, writes, 'Nov. Sth, 1856. 'Gentlmen.-The enclosed Testimonial was received by me from a customer residing in this town. ifr. n«- t. „ 'Yours respectfully, To Messrs.

GENERAL NEWS. DROWNING OF FIYE SEAMEN.—PLYMOUTH, Friday.— A waterman's boat with two watermen and fourteen seamen, in passing from Devonport to the Sound fur Her Majesty's Ship Renown this forenoon, was swamped. Nine of the sailors and watermen were rescued, but the other five were drowned. The boat was overburdened and the weather rough. THE 37TH REGIMENT.—In a telegram eommunicatcd by the Foreign-office, and published in the Herald of Friday, it was stated that a detachment of the 37th I Regiment under Colonel Milman, was cut up on the 24th of March last at Azimghur, on the south-cast frontier of Oude. This statement has, we rejoice to say, been cor- rected by another telegram from Malta, to the effect that the column under the command of Colonel Milman was 81/11t up in the fortress of Azimghur, not I cut up.' FALL OF A RAILWAY BUIDGE.—On Sunday the foi'r,tlation^o#the«tone bridge erected over the Oxford, Banbury, und Buckinghamshire branch of the North- Western Railway, about two miles from Oxford, gave way- carrying with it nearly half of the Brick arch, and leaving the other portion in a most dangerous state. The bridge was immediately shored up ivith immense logs of wood, and traffic was only suspended for a short time. The foundation is supposed to have yieldeh in consequenc of j the handsprings running through the bed of clay on which | the bridge was built. A IhxT TO THE GENERAL POST-OFFICE.— A few nights ago, at Brussels, a young man was detected in the act of employing a system of robbing letter boxes which was adopted with success some months back in one of the provincial towns of France. He slipped a narrow box made of pasteboard through the orifice of the letter. box, and attached it to the orifice by means of thin wire, in such a way that it was certain to receive all the letters dropped in. If he had not been detected, his intention was, as he confessed, to return at an early hour in the morning, and carry off any letters containing money or securities which might have been caught in his apparatus. lie has been committed for trial. HORRIBLE REVENGE.—In Denton-lane, Iluddersfield, on Monday morning, about one o'clock a woman whose screams had brought a number of neighbours to the spot, was found upon the street enveloped in flames. Before the flames could be extinguished she was so dreadfully burnt as to be beyond all hope of recovery. For some time she refused to tell the cause of her misfortune, but at last stated that her name was Grace Proctor, and that having quarrelled with a man with whom she had been living, and with whom she had been drinking on Sunday night, he, because she refused his repeated solicitations to 1;0 to bed, lighted a lucifer match and set fire to the bottom of her dress, upon which she rushed out of the house for assistance. She was awfully burnt about the lower part of the abdomen, and her left arm. was reduce (I almost to a cinder. The man, whose name is William Watson, alias Ling, and who is about 21 years of age, has fled. PASSPORT FACILITIES.—The following circular lias been issued to the mayors of different towns in England from the office of the Home Secretary:—'Whitehall, April 17, 1858. —Sir, I am directed by Mr. Secretary Walpolc to inform you, with reference to my circular of the 15th of February last, that it has been determined, with a view further to facilitate the obtaining passports by British subjects that applicants may procure identifi- cations from clergymen of all Christian denominations, physicians, surgeons, notaries, and solicitors, as well as from mayors, and magistrates; but it will be required for the future that the person applying should sign his name in full, in presence of the person granting the recommendation, in the margin of the paper in which he shall be recommended, so that such signature may be compared with that which shall be made upon the pass- port when granted. And I am to request that you will make these new regulations publicly known in the city or borough for which you are mayor.-I am, sir, your obedient servant, H. WADDINGTON. CRIME IN NEW YORK.—Police connivance and mis- placed executive clemency are bearing their fruits. Murder, highway robbery, and burglary are increasing with such frightful rapidity that it is impossible to avoid arriving at the conclusion that it is to the impunity which attaches to the commission of crime in our city that we owe this unparalelled state of things. In addition to the murder of young Samnels, we have had to record within the last day or two the shooting of the boy McCarty the probable robbery and murder of a hardware dealer and his son in Williamsburgh; the finding at Gowanus of the body of Maguire, the man who was rightly suspected to have been murdered and made away with about two months since the death of Foye, who was robbed and beaten a week or two ago at Gowanus; and the discovery of the mutilated body of another man on Rockaway beach, who was no doubt killed here, thrown into the bay, and subsequently cast ashore on Long Island. This is a catalogue of horrors to which we believe but few communities, civilised or otherwise, can furnish a precedent.—New York Herald. DOING AT ROME AS THEY DO AT ROME.—.—The Glas- gow Free Press of Saturday (Roman Catholic organ) contains a letter from Our Roman Correspondent' denouncing the rude conduct of some ill-bred English visitors in the Holy City. The letter, however, concludes with the following statement, which we give as we find it:—' It is relieving to know that at least everyone who comes here from England is not disorderly, overbearing, or arrogant. We have very often some of the best specimens of refinement and morality coming from Eng- land to this place, and it gives me the greatest pleasure that could be afforded to me in this way to be able to point to a bright example of this kind from your own door. His Grace the Duke of Hamilton, on his arrival here lately, went to kiss the Pope's foot. The Holy Father on rising from his seat, found a gift of 12,000 scudli lying at his feet. His Grace attended at all the Holy offices performed at St. Peter's and the Sistine Church during the whole week, and at the solemn mass and benediction of the blessed Sacrament of the mass on Easter Sunday. I saw him afterwards mounted along with General Govon, at the head of the Roman army. He wore a red coat and Tartan trousers." I^RENCII GOSSIP ABOUT WAR WITH ENGLAND.—The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post writes—'Amongst other subjects of general conversation in Paris, growing out of Bernard's trial, is the respective naval force of the English and French fleets. This conversation, however much to be regretted, naturally originates in the prevail- ing belief that England and France may eventually find a solution of difficulties in war. A naval man tells me France has now in commission some ten or twelve first class vessels, carrying 90 to 130 guns. and averaging crews of from 900 to 1100 men. In the space of a week or two only this number might be argumented to 15 sail with eight frigates. These vessels are all provided with screws. There arc some 20 paddie-whecl steamers at sea and some 70 other war vessels, including corvettes, gun- boats, and floating batteries, nearly all in commission. It is calculated that France would put to sea a steam fleet of 60 vessels within less than a year. There are now at the disposal of the Minister of the Marine about 60,000 sailors, and any number of marines. The French marine officers are of opinion that there is no reason why the English fleets should not burn the shipping of the ports of France, but they maintain France would certainly succeed in landing an army on the English coast. All wise men will sincerely hope this sort of gossip, however universal, will end in words. My only object in repeat- ing it is to convey an idea of the tone of Public feeting in Paris since it was known that English law protected such men as Bernard. THE PAUlS ELECTIONS.—The election to supply the three vacancies in the representation of Paris (caused by the death of ,M. Cavaignac and the refusal of two other deputies to take the oath of allegiance to the Imperial Government) look place on Sunday and Monday, the 25th and 26th ult. The contest was looked forward to with much interest in this country, as it was thought by many persons that the result would offer a more reliable indi- cation of the state of feeling in Paris towards the Em- perro's Government and this country than could be gathered from the press. Besides, it is only in Paris and in four or five other large Cities in France that the ballot boxes escape the control of the authorities, and, consequently, it is in those Cities only that the bona fide character of an election can be depended upon. It is nevertheless true that all the means which power could devise to prevent the success of the opposition candidates were adopted. In the first place the Republicans and their opponents of the existing regime were deprived of nearly all intervest in the contest by the law which made it imperative on every candidate, before presenting him- self to the electors, to take an oath of fidelity to the Imperial Government. In the second place, thou- sands of Voters (known opponents) were struck oif the lists without the slightest pretext, and few dared to complain, knowing that any particular earnestness in the matter would probably bring about, a too familiar acquaintance with the police. In the third place, the press was completely silenced, so that the singular spectacle has been presented of a Parliamentary Election in the Capital op Franco occupying less of the attention of the Talis Journals than "those of London. At previous Elections, the Independent Newspapers—the Debuts, the Seicle, and the Presse- were permitted to write with a good deal of freedom hut this time they were told that tlicy must confine themselves to publishing the names of the can- didates, without comment. In spite of these very scrious "impediments, the opposition Candidate in one arrondissment has been elected, and in another the Government Candidate (M. Ecke) failed to obrain the absolute majority required by the law, so that the contest between him and M. Picard will have fo be repeated. In the sixth arrondissemcnt, M. Jules Favre, the Opposition candidate, (who defeftded <);>ini,) had 11,310 votes; M. Ferret, the Government candidate, Kj.Hi'o. In the nth arrondissemcnt M. Picard Opposi- tion candidate) had 8593; M. Ecke (Government) 8973, In the third arrondissemcnt, M. Leonville (Opposition) had 7329; General Perrot (Government) 10,166. 1 A FRENCH TRAGEDY.—A horrible event has just taken place at Renncs. A sub-lieutenant in the 6th battalion of chasseurs, in garrison in that town, bad contracted debts of such extent that his father, a merchant at Cholmar thought it necessary to visit Rennes. On the night of his arrival a person who slept in the apartment adjoin- ing that occupied bv the father and the son was aroused by the report of a firearm, and, jumping up, he knocked at their door. The father replied that he was mistaken in applying there, and refused to open. The gentleman being convinced that the shot took place in their apart- ment, went for assistance to a neighbouring guardhouse, and when the soldiers arrived the same refusal of admis- sion was was given by the father, and the soldiers pro- ceeded to break open the door. A second report was at that moment heard, and when the door was forced the bodies of the lather and were found lifeless on the ground and on a table was a letter, which explained that both had committed suicide. BLIND CLERGYMAN.—The Mercers Company of London having recently elected the Rev. J W Burke domestic chaplain to the Lady Sparrow, of Brampton Park to the evening lect.hr -ship of the Parishes of All Saints, and St. Mary's Huntingdon, the Rev. gehtleman read him- self in on Sunday evening, 20th ull in the presence of a very numerous congregation. The novelty of the circum- stances—the young clergyman being blind-attracte(I a considoiable number of the inhabitants who were not in the lifibit of attending the evening service.. The prayers, ihe lessons, and the thirty nine articles were readout of book" printed in relief, or embossed characters, and the case and accuracy witd which the task was performed afforded no bad illustration of the practical utility of this important discovery. The devotional part of the service was read with great favour and impressiveness, the rev. gentleman's face being turned upwards while he was deciphering with his finger the petitions embodied in the liturgy. THE TRICKS OF THAUR—CAUTION TO LADIES.- On Monday in the Court of Exchequer, an action for libel wa" biought by a draper named Goodson, against a rival named Lloyd' both carrying on busiuess in Shoreditch London. The plaintiff complained that the defendant had bought from his establishment a iady.s mantle for 21s., and then displayed it in a soiled and crumpled state in his window, pinning to it the following flattering announce- ment :—'Bought at Goodson for 21s compare this to ours at 19s. 0.' This ruse so injured his trade that he lost the sale of 400 mantles, and he now laid his damages at £300. In cross-examination, it was admitted by the plaintiff and his assistant that it was the practice, when ladies came in to purchase an article displayed in the window, to remove it and contrive to supply them with an inferior article, when the purchaser, seeing the place in the window vacant, went awar under the belief she bad bought that which she in- tended. Baron Watson in summing up, commented strongly on this admission, observing that such a practice was, using the mildest language, cheating, and that the plaintiff and his witness were liable to a chaage of conspi- racy at the Old Baily. The jury immediately returned a verdict for the defendant. A ROMANTIC GIPSY STORY.—A story is afloat that some gossip has been occasioned in Cumberland county, Penn., by the following circumstances: Mr Geo. Fry, of Shippensburg, married a Gipsy girl belonging to a gang who were haunting the neighbourhood, about three years ago. The Gipsy girl's father was so enraged at this that he kidnapped her and sent her to parts unknown. Mr Fry mourned her loss two yers, and then married again. But, says the Shippensburg Newt, last week Mr Fry's first wife, in company with 'George Fry the second, arrived in this place in search of him! By the assistance of officer Shade, she was successful in finding him, Limited space forbids us entering into details at this time of the excruciating suffering Mrs Fry had un- dergone since her departure from this place. The intel- ligence of her husband's second marriage was a severe shock to her; but she emphatically declares her exclusive right to him. It appears, by th« way, that Mr. Fry's second wile was a widow,' and that her husband went to California some years ago, and soon after his arrival there, it was rumoured that he was married. A few weeks since a letter was received from him by her, we have been informed, in which he states that he will re- turn in the next steamer, &c. What the finale of this romance will be is beyond the power of human ken. WELSH BISHOPS AND THE WELSH LANGUAGE.—The Rev. R. W. Morgan, P.C., Tregynon, has addressed a letter to the Earl of Derby, in which be calls the attention of his lordship to the fact, that while bishops appointed by the Crown to preach the Gospel to savages, although in no way maintained by them, are obliged to learn their languages, that is not the case in Wales, where the great majority of the people understand no language but Welsh. Thus, although the Welsh people are compelled to maintain a state episcopacy, there has not been a single bishop in North Wales for 150 years who could adminis- ter the sacrament to, or pray by the bedside of a dying Welshman. The letter particularly points out the pro- priety of translating the present Bishop of St Asaph on the first vacancy to the English episcopal bench and adds that the spontaneous assurance of Lord Derby to take the first opportunity of redressing the great grie- vance complained of would be much more conducive to the interests of religion and the Church then the whole question should be discussed under the contending influ- ences in the House of Commons. In reply to this letter it was stated, on the part of his lordship, that he has in no wise altered his opinion in reference to the qualifica- tions which it is desirable those pralates should possess who are called upon to discharge their important functions in the dioceses where the Welsh language is almost universally spoken.' At the same time it is stated that his lordship must decline t o pledge himself as to the ad- vice that he may consider it his duty to give to his Sovereign on the subject to which Mr Morgan's letter refers. MARRIAGE WITH A DECEASED WIFE'S SISTER.— IMPOHTANT DECISION.—A very important decision was given in the Vice Chancellor's Court on Saturday. The case was that of Brook v. Brook, and involved the question of the validity in this country of the marriage at Alrona in the duchv of Holland—where by the lev loci, such mar- riages are legal,—of a British subject, domiciled in Eng- land, with the sister of his deceased wife. In 1847, Char- lotte, the first wife of the Rev. William Leigh Brook., of Meltham Hall, near Iluddersfield died. By her he had one son and one daughter. In 1851 Mr. Brook married Emily, the sister of his deceased wife, the two parties having proceeded from this country, where they respectively were then, and continued to be up to their respective deaths, domiciled, to Altona, for the purpose of solemnizing their marriage. In September J855, Mr and Mrs Brook died of cholera within two days of each other while on a tour on the continent. One son and two daughters were the issue of Mr Brook's second marriage. By his will, dated on the day of his death, Mr Brook gave his real and personal property among the children of his two marriages. In 1856, Charles Armitage Brook, the son of the second mar- riage died. The question was, as to the validity of the second marriage; and if it was valid, and the will might be carried out; but if invalid, the Crown would be entitled to the estate due to the deceased child of the second marriage, and the survivors would pay 10 per cent., being the duty payable by strangers. The Vice-Chancellor (Stuart), after going through all the acts and opinions on the subject, said —It is a case in which the public policy of the law of Englaud prohibits the contract. It is a case in which the law is personal in its nature, and must ac- company the persons wherever they go and it is, moreover a case in which England was the country with a view to which and in which the marriage contract was to have its permanent effect. No resort to the laws (If Den ark or of any other foreign country cun give validity to such a con- tract when the law of England has made it null and void. It seems, therefoie, the duty of this court to declare that the marriage between the testator and Emily Armitage, the sister of his deceased wife, was not a valid martiuge, but is noli and void to all intents and purposes whatsoever, and that the real and personal estate Pof Charles Armitage Brook, deceased has become vested in the Crown.' THE RELATIONS OF FRANCE AND ENGLAND.—In how perilous a position the Emperor Napileon stands every mail tells numerous stories. Think of that stifled groan -'Vjve la Republique !'—which rose from the lips of 20.000 Frenchmen as Orsini's head fell into the basket! There is need of plenty of tried soildiers to keep down that mob, or there will very quickly be all end to the empire. And how is the Emperor to keep well with the anti British soldiery, if he insists on pretending that he plays the hum- ble, dependant, and submissive ally of England? On one side, a gulf—abandonment by the soldiery, and the fall of his dyuastrv on the other, another gulf-war with Eng- land. Apparently he must chose between them. In the event of a war with England the chances arc that at first success would rest with France. Her army is much larger and better disciplined than that of England her capucit) for throwing 100.000 or 200,000 men on the British shores in the course of a few hours by means of steam-vessels and hurrying them to London is undoubted and if the ma- ncec>vre were undertaken vigorously and swiftly at the outbreak of a war, the immediate result would probably be successful. Of course in course of time it would he im- possible for 100,00(1 Frenchmen to maintain themselves in London as it would be for a like number of Englishmen to occupy Paris' or Frenchmen to hold New York; in course of time the invaders would be ignoniinously expelled But this would be but the least part of the reprisals which England would forthwith undertake. She would at once proceed to organise and subsidise the republicans of France and Europe. Through the exiles who would hasten home to take part in a revolution, she would scatter a few mil- lions of pounds sterling throughtout Paris, Rouen, and L Notiz, and the empire would be overthrown in six weeks. Such is the inevitable prospect in the event of a war be- tween France and England, and the only question is whether the pressure which the army and the agricultural classes are exercising against the Emperor, in conse( uence of hi- adherellce to Great Britian and the English alJ:anee is sufficiently powerful t1 make him perctivv that the .nils we have described as certain to follow a rupture with Eng- land are, after all, less than those which he would have to encounter by retaining her friendship.—The New York Herald.
