Fkmamc Emigration Fond. — On Wednesday several members of the Committee of the Female Emigration Society, and tlicir friends proceeded by a steamer fioin the Blackw.ill pier, to see the fi fill party of emigrants on bounl the Northumberland, lying at (Iravosend, previous to its departure for Port Phillip. Amongst lliosc who availed themselves of the opportunity of witnessing this interesting scene were the Mnichioncss Dioghedn, Lord and 1-swly Wliarncliffe, and the Hon. Mrs. S. Wortley, the Hon. A. Kinnaird, Mr. N. Tuflnell, and the Kcv. Messrs. Qucckott nnd Brown. On tlicir arrival, the vessel, a fine spacious East Tndiaman, was inspected, and general satisfaction was expressed at the accommodation and airangcmcnl for the emigrants. Those who were leaving on the present occasion amounted to about 60 in number, consisting for the most part of young females. They were placed opposite their bertha, and their names severally called over; and, on each answeiing to her name, a testimonial of chaiaeter, and a copy of the regulations to bo observed on hoard, was handed to her. In a few instances, were the parties were unable to read, they weie told they could acquire that advantage during the voyage, as a tear- her was on board for the pin pose of instiuctmg them. They weic then addressed by the Hon. Mr. Kinnaird, and the Rev. Mr. Queckett, and the ncces* sity of observing obedience, mutual kindness and good conduct, while on board, strongly inculcated. They weie informed of the attention which had been paid to the comforts and necessities on the voyage, and most of them appeared deeply grateful and afiectcd. It may be mentioned that one of the expected emigrants, who had paid far her own outfit, drew back at the eleventh hour, and refused to undertake the voyage, declaring (although .1 Londonci) that she wa.s frightened by the noise of the steamer which conveyed the emigrants to the Norihum* berland. After the ceremony of inspection was, over, the visitors partook of refreshments, which had been prepared for them by Mr. Green, the owner of the vessel, and left highly gratified at an event of which many of them had been, not merely the spcctatois on this occasion, but the active and charitable piomoters.

Tub Oifick of Associate to the Chief Justice of tlio Queen '« Bench has, it is well known, nlmoit itiva. riubly been held by a son of that great juJical function - Dry for the time being, and that it is resigned on n vacancy, either by death or retirement, of the Chief Justice. Thus, in the time of Chief Justice KHcnborough •he office was held by the preicnt Recorder for London ; dm ing Chief Justice Tetiterden's incumbency, the present Lord Tenterden was associate, and lately the Hon. Thomas Dennmn acted in that capucity. Immediately oa the appointment of Lord Campbell n» Chief Justice he wrote to Mr. Den man requesting that Mr. Denmnn would continue to he his associate. This handsome offer of the new Chief Justioo waa however, delicately declined by Mr, Denmnn ; who reminded Loid Campbell that he had sous of his own quite as competent to fill the office. Its emoluments arc understood to be woith £2,000 u-year, paid, of course, by the suitors for justice in the Queen's Bench.
