The Demise of the Crown.

Tbe suggestion that it may be nee* easary to legietate m order to provid* against the possibility of a demise of the Grown during the Duke of Corn wall and York's absence id Australia is quite superfluous, us such a contingency is provided for by the Act of 1837. When Queen Victoria came to the throne, and for more than three years afterwards, her ancle, the King of Hanover, was next heir. A con | sol ration took 1 place directly after the 1 dpath of William the Fourth between Lord Melbourne and Lord John Raeßell on one side, and the Duke of Welling ton and Sir Robert Peel on the other, which resulted m the passing of an Acl making provision for carrying on the Government of the country m oaie 1 of the death of the Sovereign when tbe next heir was beyond seas. Under this Act the Lords Justices charged "to excuse ali the powers and author— itiew of the Buccseor to the Crown unti! his or her arrival m the kingdom, or until be or she shallfoth&rwwe order," are the Archbishop of Canterbury, tot Lord ■■Chancellor,'the-First Lord of the Treasury (representing the Lord High* Treasurer), the Lord President of the Council, the Lord Privy Seal, the Fir*t Lord of the Admiralty (as representing the Lord High'Admira'), and the Lord Chief Justice of England.

Cruelty to Sheep.

IMPORTANT CASE TO SHEP HEfcDS. Before Sheriff Armour In Cup« Sheriff Court on March sth last, Koberfc Yoaasf, shepherd, Auchtertool, was charged with having, between 4th and 6th February, m the Bt-veridge Public Paik, Kirkcaldy, cruelly ill treated, abused,and tcrtured a sheep under hi charge by causing it great and unnecw sary pain by leaving it m the Park without making provision for its receir ing proper attention and food, when it wag suffering from fracture and injuries to the efif fore limb, which was & mass of suppuration, with the bone much exposed si that the animal could not stand, and could obtain no food except what was within its reach where it lay. Accused was further charged with cruelty to two othrr sheep at the same time and place, boUi alleged to be suffering from frac tured limbs and suppurating sores. ■ Accused pleaded not £u:lty, and was defended by Mr M Nicoll, solicitor, Kirkcaldy. Mr Weir, Inspector to th« Society for the Prev<ntion of Cruelty to Animals, described the condition of the animals. One of the sheep could run •bout, although the bone was exposed. There was no trace of any dressing about the cheep. Accused told witness that three weeks or a month before the ebepp hsd been worried by dogß, and he had been treating them with oil, bat it had sppsrently done no good, James Struthers, VO, Kirkcaldy, read a report upon the condition of tho three sheep, Nos 1 and 2 were very much emaciated from want of food, and were practic lly helpless and suffering great pain. The ether, m comparison with the other two, was a much milder case of cruelty. After further evidencf, the Sheriff Sfiid that certainly nothing had been left undone to secure au acquittal m this case ; but after hearing the evidence he was perfectly satisfied that he had only one course, and that wrb to con vict. HeMnposeda fine of £2, with | the alternative of fourteen daya im | prisonmenr, remarking, however, thai but for the consideration of the good character given to the accused he should [have felt it his duty to infl ct the full I penalty.
