EMPEROR LIFE AND FIRE ASSURANCE SOCIETIES.-The annual meeting of this society was held at the City Terminus Hotel, Cannon-street, on the 2nd June. The report showed that during the year 1453 proposals had been received, amounting to 490,9631., and 847 policies had been issued for 2401,7501. The claims for the year had been only 61081. A bonus had been given to the life policy-holders from 22 to 48 per cent. on the premiums previously paid, and a dividend was declared to the shareholders, at the rate of 5 per cent., free of income-tax, and a bonus of 1 per cent. The total amount of life and fire assurances effected is 3,525,4911. Advances had been profi HANSFORD, ARTHUR, formerly general dealer, York-st, York rd, Lambeth. Pet. June 7. Reg. Pepys. O. A.

June 24 holder had transferred his shares to an infant, and on account of the infancy the contributory had been removed by the court, and now the liquidator, LEVY, BENJAMIN, butcher, Middlesex-st, Aldgate, and Bristolby Mr. Lording, applied to substitute the former holder. The chief clerk (Mr. Church) ordered notice to be given to the former shareholder. The Bishop of London has commenced a prosecution against the Rev. C. F. Lowder, the vicar of St. Peter's, St. George's-in-the-East, in consequence of his violation of the directions laid down in what is popularly known as "The Cairns Judg. ment." Mr. Lowder objects to remove his lighted candles, or to consecrate the elements otherwise than as he understands the Church to direct him, and for this he is to be prosecuted in the Court of Arches, if Sir Robert Phillimore consents to accept the letters of request, of which, possibly, there may be some doubt. The Court of Exchequer in Ireland has witnessed perhaps for the last time the observance of a quaint custom which, in the light of coming changes, seems more strange. It is the service rendered every year by Christ Church Cathedral for the property which it holds in "frank almoigne." The Rev. Mr. Finlayson, vicar choral, and several of the choristers attended in their surplices, and getting upon the table of the court, while all present, including the members of the Bench-all, with one exception, Roman Catholics-reverently stood, they sang a hymn with excellent effect as a musical performance. The vicar choral then stood at the side bar and read the concluding prayers of the Morning Service of the Established Church, the boys singing the responses. Before the Reformation the custom was to celebrate mass in the courts on the first and last days of all the terms in homage for the lands, but at the time of the Reformation the Protestant service was substituted. The court certi fied that it was duly rendered. THE WEST RIDING.-A large meeting, attended by nearly 200 West Riding justices, was held at Wakefield to fill up a vacancy in the position of chief constable, caused by Colonel Cobbe, who was appointed to that important office at the formation of the constabulary thirteen years ago, and who then organised, and has since brought the force to a high state of efficiency, having been appointed one of her Majesty's inspectors of police. Mr. J. B. Greenwood presided, and before the ordinary business began, alluded in feeling terms to the loss sustained by the untimely death of Colonel Smyth, of Heath-hall, near Wakefield, an active West Riding magistrate, and a former member for York. A resolution of thanks was afterwards accorded to Colonel Cobbe for his long and efficient services, The salary of the new chief Constable has been fixed at 5001. a year. THE GAZETTES.

Gloucestershire, on the borders of Monmouth.-The Newland Valley Estate a beautiful Freehold Property, sitnate on the banks of the picturesque and romantic River Wye, and in the immediate vicinity of the far-famed ruins of Tintern Abbey, embracing an area of 1101 acres, divided into several farms of fertile arable and meadow, with rich pasture land, having good farm-houses, all necessary agricultural buildings, ample cottage accommodation, and a residence or shooting lodge. The wood lands are beautifully timbered and stocked with valuable underwood, while their capabilities for sporting purposes cannot be overestimated, as they comprise 314 acres, and have been so judiciously placed that both winged and ground game may be preserved to any extent, at a comparatively small expense, and at the present time, with only very moderate preserving for the last two years, there is a large head of pheasants and hares. The fishing in the Wye is two wellknown to require comment. There are two pools well stocked with trout and other fish, and a small trout stream flows through the centre of the estate; besides which, packs of foxhounds and harriers meet within easy reach. MESSRS. NORTON, TRIST, WATNEY, and Co. have received instructions to SELL by AUCTION, at the MART, London, on THURSDAY, the 15th JULY next, at Two o'clock precisely, in One Lot, the above valuable PROPERTY, which is easy of access from Bristol, Gloucester, Hereford, or Shrewsbury, only five hours' journey from London, within two and a-half miles of Monmouth, which is a capital market town, and eleven from Chepstow. It is distinguished as the Newland Valley Estate, and is situate in the parish of Newland, adjoining the turnpike road from Monmouth to Chepstow, having a frontage to the river Wye, and adjoining the estates of the Countess Dunraven, Col. Rooke, and others. The farms are let to a very respectable tenantry, but the woodlands and the sporting over the estate are in the hands of the owner. The soil is chiefly deep loam on a sub-stratum of carboniferous limestone, and produces fine barley and root crops, while several of the meadows are improved by irrigation. The property in its entirety offers unusual attractions to the sportsman, and many elevated sites, splendidly timbered and commanding panoramic views of this proverbially lovely district, suggest the erection of a mansion and the formation of a residential estate. There is limestone of fine quality for either building or agricultural purposes, and likewise sandstone of a hard and durable nature.

This is one of the most desirable occupa tions in the neighbourhood. Its contiguity to the thriving mercantile town of Stowmarket not only invests it with unusual facilities for profitable cultivation but renders those enclosures bordering upon the town most valuable as accommodation lands, for which purpose they will always command a high price. The land, which is of the finest mixed soil character, is in a high and clean state of cultivation, and running through the centre of it is a tract of rich grazing meadow land, lying most convenient for feeding the arable portions. The farm has been for nearly half a century in the occupation of the present tenants, Messrs. Stearne, who are under notice to quit at Michaelmas next. For further particulars apply to Messrs.

The Forty-sirth Volume of the LAW TIMES, now complete, may be uniformly and strongly bound at the Law TIMES Office for 5s. 6d. THE Law and the Lawyers. MR. HIBBERT intends to bring forward the question relating to the salaries of County Court Judges on Tuesday next, and on a future day will make a motion relative to the retiring pensions. The Lord CHIEF JUSTICE, sitting at Nisi Prius, has held that the managing body of a charity to which persons are elected by the purchase of votes, has complete jurisdiction over such persons and can dismiss them on the ground of misconduct, although a jury might not consider the 706 offences alleged against the persons dismissed to amount to misconduct. His Lordship also ruled that misconduct is a question of degree, and that in certain cases a mere non-observance of rules might amount to misconduct. 713 MR. BRIERLEY's proceedings at the Middlesex Sessions are causing scandals of the most undesirable character. He has at length been actually carried out of court by the usher. Upon this scene the Pall Mall Gazette comments in this wise: "We have little doubt that this 'carrying out' system, as applied to barristers at the Middlesex Sessions, will, if extended, 155 greatly tend to raise the tone of the Profession generally. How many a barrister might with advantage be carried out by a stalwart usher when the browbeating of a witness has reached its extreme limit and be deposited in the nearest gutter." The sessions Bar at Middlesex should look to itself. There is no reason why a criminal Bar should not maintain as good a reputation as the Bars at Westminster and Chancery-lane. THE opinion of the West-end solicitors in favour of the Government site for the new Law Courts 162 is sustained in the press, and the notion seems to prevail that the Carey-street site is advocated 162 by a clique whose interests are opposed to those 162 of the public. The Daily News proposes a series 163 of questions to be answered by those still doubting. Which of the two could we most conveniently reach? Which of the two could we better admire? In which of the two could we 164 hear and see and breathe most freely? Which of the two would be the more accessible to our men of business in the City, the West-end, the 167 Temple, and the country? Which would eventually be the cheaper of the two sites? And our contemporary thinks that when these questions have been answered in the light of the voluminous information already published, the public will find that there is no mystification about the question, and will be quite prepared to accept 169 the Government plan. 165 165 165 167 168 168 169 169 169 170 170 171 172 TRADES UNIONS BILL. A DEPUTATION of employers has waited upon the 170 HOME SECRETARY to ascertain the views of the 170 Government on this Bill, and to urge that the 171 subject should be taken up by the Ministry, and not left to private members. Mr. BRUCE stated that it was impossible for the Government, amid 172 the pressure of business now before Parliament, to undertake to legislate on a question of such vast importance during the present session. He 172 admitted, however, that it should be met without unnecessary delay, and he expressed a hope 172 that it may not be discussed for the present 172 when nothing could be done, and only irritation 174 could be produced by it.

To us it appears to be defective in not providing sufficient power of organisation. Our suggestion was and is that trade societies should be incorporated, as are joint-stock companies, with full powers to act in their corporate capacity; to sue and be sued; to frame bye-laws; to by their members, and with the same pubenforce payment of subscriptions and fines licity of articles of association, &c., and the We have shown also how the penal clauses of same responsibilities as attach to companies. the Bill are defective in not sufficiently definpublic and especially the working people, noning the offences or properly protecting the unionists, against the annoyances to which they are subjected. As the Bill is to be debated, we will, next week, return to it. The HOME SECRETARY, on the part of the Government, has already protested against a measure of such great importance being brought forward by private members, and declared the inability of the Government to deal with it during the short remainder of the present session. THE IRISH CHURCH ABOLITION BILL. IT is understood that a great endeavour will be made in committee of the Lords to apply a portion of the surplus fund to the provision of manses and glebes for the Roman Catholic and Presbyterian clergy. It would certainly be a far better use for the money than relieving the landowners from the charge of lunatics and criminals. Nothing would so much tend to produce harmony and contentment between the rival religions, and so to restore peace to Ireland. THE ASSESSED RATES BILL. MR. VERNON HARCOURT spent an hour unprofitably on Monday evening in denouncing a law which is already condemned, and which it was proposed to abandon. We presume that he had got up his speech some weeks ago on the assumption that the compound householder was still to be retained, and, unwilling that so much virtuous indignation should be wasted, he let it off on an occasion when it was altogether uncalled for, the object of it being then abandoned. It was another illustration of the folly of writing speeches and reciting them from memory, instead of giving utterance to the mind of the moment. MR. GOSCHEN might, we think, have more prudently repealed the law than attempted its amendment. The Reform Acts would have made ample provision for the supposed difficulty if the compound householder clauses had been simply repealed, without more. But MR. GoSCHEN's proposition accomplished the same end indirectly. The tenant is to be liable only in case the landlord fails to pay his composition, and if the tenant should be compelled to pay the rate he is permitted to deduct it from his rent. The limit of compounding is determined at a rental of 207. in London, and 87. in the country, where it should have been kept at 107, as originally proposed by the Bill. The landlord compounding is to be allowed 25 per cent. for his trouble and risk-a very liberal commission, seeing that he will certainly add to his rent more than the amount of the rates, and that he possesses a power by which, when the rates take the form of rent, they can be summarily enforced. That the parishes will gain largely by the new arrangement there can be no doubt, and that all reasonable security is provided for the tenant against the loss of the franchise is equally certain. So we trust that this troublesome question is fairly disposed of for ever. PROSECUTORS IN CIVIL AND IT seems to be generally admitted that it will soon become necessary to appoint a public prosecutor for criminal matters; and it is our wish now to suggest that when this question comes to be discussed in a practical manner, it may also be considered whether it would not be advisable to give to poor persons a right to sue |
