An august anil ancient tribunal—the moat so dout and august of an; save tbe •' High Court of I arllament "—virtually co&aed to exist on Tues day. July 0. The Court of Quoen’s Bench, which ropreeeuU a tribunal hold before the King himaolf at least 1,000 years ago, eat then for the last time, aud in all human probability will never alt again. Jt may not technically ooaae to exi«t until November, aud until then it survives merely aa an sns r<Uionis— an idea or conception of the mlndj but it will actually as semble no more. It bold a sitting ou Uouday for the pnrpoae of giving Judgments, and those judgments will be Its last, for, unless something unforeseen happens, it will never ait again. It is impossible (as Lord Coleridge observed a year or so ajoj to contemplate without a fooling of interest, sud perhaps a passing pang of regret, the extinction and passing away of so august aud ancient aa institution. Even ia this country, so tenacious in its traditions and institutions, and, most of all, in Us Judicial Institutions, the Queen's Bench, as it was curtly called, or, to use lie cor rect Ugal title, 11 the Court of U.i«.lng before .um lUag hleisstf “ oorjuit (p«o re#e "—was CHICAGO, THURSDAY, * JULY 22, 1875. the most ancient of *ll, and far more ancient than Parliament Itself i for it can he (raced hack clearly in the unbalance of it* nature and character and in the essence of ftn juris* diction to the time of Alfred—above ten centuriea ago. It isaenrions circamstanoethat, reckoning from tho accession of Alfred in 871— the earliest date at which such a jurisdiction can Ik> shown to have been exercised—to the year 1870, whoa the original of the Jndleatare act which abolished it vu introduced, just 1.000 yearn ebould have elapsed. To Sir Alexander Cockburn, certainly in many respects not the leant distinguished of Hie sorloa, belongs the melancholy distinction of being tbs last Lord Chief-Justice of England. The Jurisdiction of the Court it In tmo, la preserved by the Judica ture act and la vented in a division of thoillgh Court of Judicature. And Its peculiar Jurisdic tion in vented in thotdivinion exclusively. lint an a Court—as that crest Court which has exist ed ever ninco the Conquest ah a distinct and separate tribunal, with that hirrh and lofty ju risdiction which could originally only be exor cised by the King In person, ami was so exorcised by our sovereigns over since the tirna of Alfred, an tho great Court of the King, inferior only to Parliament in greatness and in dignitv—its his tory lias closed. All its proud distinction and its lofty traditions expire and pass awav and be come as things of tho pant. It has. however, a groat history, a history of ten centuries’ dura tion, closely connected with the Constitution of the country through a long succession of ages, and associated with a series of great names and historic, often tragic, events j and it was not fitting that it should pass away forever without a word uy way of memorial aud In some measure of regret. FRANCE. IW TOE ABSEMni.T. Versailles, July 21.—1n (ho Assembly to-dar, after tho close of tho contest, tho Right carried a motion to diacusa tho question of recess to morrow.

Gam ketta, the litybulique Prancaise states that, while it defends the .Republican policy as nnder fitood, explained, and practiced by the latter, its writers, as they have repeatedly declared, ars separately responsible for the articles of which they are the authors. It odds : From another point of view it U not without utility for At. Omuler de Caseagnac to know that 31. GiuiiUt l«tta In not and could not bo at the tlw first or Lml comer among hla admulni or political ruc mlcs.

Oambetta informs mo by bis miwipapfr that ho will not fight, and that bis obligations and dottei to wards hla party, Franuo, and tbo Uopublie do not leave him tbo accessary leisure to vatch over hla dignity and courage. M.

If need bo, my boot will know bow to find him. flUllßCmrnoKß TO THE ZXOOD-RUFFBRERfI.

Hr. I!. J. Pike, a eoieutifio silversmith, has ‘tested (be nugget, and found that it resisted the strongest acid, and pro nounced it pure gold. Copt.

The nuggets that have been found and tested wer« f ioked up accidentally in a small ravine running hrough a corn field, after a recent heavy rain, Tho gem ral appearance of the earth m tbs vicinity i f thu gold' region is rough and rocky, snn is known .as the Dutch Oreok neighborhood, about 2 miles west of Decatur, instead of BD miles north, as stated in a previom dispatch. The farm upon which the gold was found belongs to Andrew Kepler, a cigar-manu facturer: aud it was at first thought by many that it was a ruse in order to effect a sale for bis laud; but moro iccoat developments sustain tbs truth of the report that gold actually exists on the premises.
