This forenoon Mr. W. J. Payne, the deputy coroner, held an inquest at St. Bartholomew's Hospital rejecting the death of Mr. John Bryant, aged 30. Ihe deceased, it appeared, was formerly a comic singer and dancer at music -halls, and since ho had adopted that occupation he had become addicted to intemperate habits, which produced greater effect upon him owing to the fact of his having received a sunstroke while in India. He was admitted to the hospital on Thursday morning, and was placed in a bed near the south window, which was, however, closed and fastened. The nurse told him to lie down while she went to get him his medicine. Ile replied, "All right." In a minute after she heard a crash of glass, and upon going to see what had happened, she found that he had leaped from the bed and dashed through the centre pane of glass, and fell to the ground beneath, a distance of 35 feet, re ceiving such injuries that he died shortly afterwards. Dr. Samuel Gee, assistant physician to the hospital, having heard the history of the case at the time the deceased was admitted, said there was then no sign of delirium tremens, and he did not be lieve that restraint was necessary. All that the deceased wanted was rest, after the excitement of his life. The jury returned a verdict of " Suicide while in a state of temporary insanity." .11:1611711 - 1, LEATH _a2+l 711 E GREENWICH RAILWAY. At Guy's Hospital an inquiry was held by Mr. W.. 1.

The Newmarket and Carlisle meetings present the most attractive features in the racing events of the ensuing week ; and the prophets have, as usual, given the public the benefit of their " professional " judg ment on the merits of the competitors. - - - - For the July Stakes, there are sixty-one nominations. Bell's life says that, according to recent form, Rysh worth and Belladrum are bound to finish close to gether ; but the Orphan has shown such improvement lately that the writer believes Mr. Chaplin's stable will carry o ff the' prize with the daughter of Diomedia. " Touchstone," of the Era, gives the preference to Bella drum, V/0)0 " Wizard" of the Sportsnuts and the Sporting Gazetter pronounce in favour of Ryshworth. The Field believes that Belladrum is a doubtful starter, and, there fore, in the presumed absence of Mr. Merry's colt, Ryah worth has only De Vere to fear. The Cumberland Plate, which has obtained a very roil acceptance, will, the Field thinks, be won by either I. lora or Tabouret, that is if Fair Wind be not sent to Carlisle. lied s Life pull) its faith to John Scott's best, War or the Spy, and Flora. "Touchstone " prefers Bracken and Fair Wind, while "the Wizard" and "Augur," of the Sport ing Life, like the Field, look for the winner in Flora or Tabouret. The Sporting Gazette says that Captain Machell was so satisfied that the result of the Grand Prize at Alexandra Park was "all wrong," that he offered to match The Knight of the Garter against Orion, same weights and distance, for 2,0001. a side, to run at Newmarket in October, but Mr. Headman declined. Bremo LISTI3.—A number of betting men have been summoned before the Newcastle magistrates for having exposed lists at the recent Newcastle meeting. Thirty two summonses were issued, but only one appeared. The defendant, who pleaded ignorance in mitigation of his offence, was tined 10s. Warrants were issued for the appre hension of those who disregarded the summonses. At Worcester, too, summonses have been issued against well-known betting list mon, the summonses being made returnable for Monday. Tux Nsw LAW as vu DEFAULTEI2S.—At the meeting of the Jockey Club on Wednesday next, Mr. Chaplin will move, and Colonel Lowther second, the following motion:— " That the Jockey Club will not enforce the penalties imposed by their resolutions of the 15th of June, 1808, for default in bets, unless the complaint shall have been lodged with the Committee of the Subscription Betting Rooms at Tattersall's, or at Newmarket, within three months of the bets being due. That a copy of this resolution be sent to the said committees forthwith." The object of this motion, says the Sporting Gazette, is to enable the resolutions passed on the 15th of Juno to take effect, which must otherwise remain useless, and of no inure value than waste paper ; because, although a man may be well known to be a defaulter by everybody, unless he is proclaimed such officially, his creditors are powerless to enforce the penalties against him. DItAMA. PRINCESS'S. Miss Neilson, whose success on the London stage, has been steady and progressive, and who has chosen what is called the legitimate drama in preference to more popular melo-drama, has been playing a short engagement at this theatre in the character of Juliet, which will terminate to-night. She has youth, impulse, and considerable experience in her favour, and may pro bably take a position in London where the supply of good actresses is far from equal to the demand. She is badly supported at the Princess's, but, iu many scenes, she rises superior to her surroundings. SINGULAR CHARGE AGAINST A RAILWAY OFFICIAL. M. Darjou, aged 58, a principal clerk (chef de comptabilito of the Lyons and Mediterranean Railway Company, appeared on Thursday at the bar of the Cor rectional Tribunal, to answer a charge of embezzlement and abuse of confidence.

Desgranges, an eminent engineer, who resided professionally many years Austria, where he made the South Austrian railways, and was in the enjoyment of an income of from 100,000 fr. to 150,000 fr. a year remitted to him from time to time sums of money for investment amounting altogether to 700,000 fr., and that he, while rendering to his principal Flemish accounts representing the money as invested in securities bearing interest, lost the whole of it in Bourse specula tions. M. Desgranges who returned to Paris at the end of last year, intending to retire from business and enjoy an honourable competence gained by hard and successful work, found himself ruined by the "familiar friend" whom he had trusted. Darjou, in the letter containing his confession, had the impudence to beg his " dear Desgranges" not to be unduly concerned, and suggested that if he would only advance sufficient funds to operate upon the Bourse again, there was every probability that within a reasonable time, "say three years from the Ist of April next," ho would get all his money back. An under clerk of the Lyons Railway, named Martin, is indicted as an accomplice of Darjou, but he strenuously denies his guilt. The trial, which was sot concluded yesterday, is postponed for a week. NATAL AND MILITART. CHATRAM, JULY 3. A review of the troops comprising this garrison was held on Chatham-lines this afternoon by his Royal Highness Prince Arthur, K.O. The force on the ground included the B troop of the Royal Engineer Train, the let and 3rd battalions of infantry, and the battalion of Royal Morikes Light Infantry—the whole numbering between 2,000 and 3,000 men of all ranks, under the com mand of Major-Oencral F. Murray. On the arrival of his royal highness the troops gave a general salute, the bands playing the National Anthem. After inspecting the troops in line his royal highness rode to the flag-stall, when the entire force marched past by grand divisions, in open columns, at the conclusion of which a brilliant series of manunvres incidental to a field-day review were carried out, the whole terminating with a general advance of the entire force in line, and the usual salute. Tho Army and Nary Gazette gives currency to a rumour that Lord Clarence Paget has expressed a wish to he relieved from the command of the Mediterranean fleet early in autumn, his lowlship's object being to obtain a seat in the new parliament. It is said that he will be succeeded in the command by Sir Alexander Milne. The journal says that the Channel squadron has been ordered to return to port. Some of the ships will proceed to Plymouth and others to Ports mouth. The latter uro expected to arrive at Spitttad a:ller to-clay or to-morrow. and will re main them to do honour to her Majesty the Queen on tl.e 044.11A011 of her v isiting the Galatea, and will then, no doubt, joint her Majmty's escort ea her approaching trip to Cezniany. Thera u a vacancy for one captain on the navy list, and this will be absorbed by Commander YeWins for distinguished services in Abysanita EVENING, JULY 4, 1868. BANK HOLIDAYS AND DILLY 01 , EX CHA E lIII,L. This bill has been amended in committee, and is now in the form in which it will probably become law. Its provisions are these :-Ist. It enables the Queen to appoint by proclamation special bank holidays, either in the United Kingdom as a whole, or in any part of it that may be deemed proper; and bills payable on such holi days, as well as on tact and thanksgiving days, shall be come due on the day next following. All conse quent acts, such as noting, protesting, giving notice of dishonour, /hall be done on this "next following" day, just as they would have been upon the bank holiday if this act had not pawed. If the bank holiday be on a Saturday, the bills nominally duo on it will be payable on the Mouday I if the bank holiday he the day before Good Friday or Christmas Day, such bulls will be payable on the day after Good Friday and the day after Christmas Day respectively. The same bill abolishes days of grace on all bills drawn after the let of January, 1869. We give the exact wools of the cinema as they arc important:—" 5. After the first day of January one thousand eight hundred and sixty nine, days of grace shall be abolished, and no days of gram shall be claimable or allowable on bills of exchange or promissory notes drawn or made after said day. 6. Nothing in the last section contained shall affect bill of exchange or pro =Winery notes drown or made before the fird day of January one thousand eight hundred and sixty-nine, but on such bills and notes days of grace shall be allowable and rlaimsble as at promeit." These days of gram have been subject of various usage in various counties, but they are now in course of aboli tion almost everywhere. The exact Us, of a bill is that there is no "grace" or laxity about it, but that it must be paid precisely when due. As soon as • England—the greatest discount centre—has abolished these absurd days, they will soon be dimmed everywhere elne.—Eiwarinsist. WEATHER REPORT,--(TEID3 DAT.) SATURDAY, JUI W.

We (Gardeners' Chronicle) understand that dur ing recent experiments at Gillwell Park with Mr. Gibbs' drying apparatus, raw rank grasp fresh from the scythe was converted by the hot blast into fragrant green hay in eeven minutes, and an average load of 17 to 20 cwt. of wet hay was rendered fit for stacking in 49 minutes, and was sent up by the hoist to the top of the stack in 25 minutes. DEATII OF MR. Foul', M.P.—Mr. Richard Fort, the liberal representative of Clitheroe, died at his London residence on Thursday evening, after a protracted illness. The representation of the borough consequently becomes vacant. It is hardly probable—it is possilale—that a writ may be issued before the recess. The present candidates are Mr. Ralph Aesheton (conservative) and Mr. Charles S. Roundell (liberal). DEATH OF MR. GEORGE EDMONDS, OF BIR WINGTIAM.— The Birminyham Daily Purl records the death of this gentleman, well known in consequence of the leading part which he took in the reform agitation be tween 30 and 40 years ago. The deceased had reached his 80th year. DANOEROES ACCIDENT TO VOLIIN. TEERS.—A sad accident occurred at the Devonport Rifle Range, Keyhata, on Thursday. There was a private match between 110 of the Volunteer Corps and 10 sergeants of the 2nd battalion of the Riflo Brigade, quartered in the Raglan Barracks. Private Keast had loaded his rifle, but forgot that he had done so. He took the rifle, and in order to clear the unknown ob struction, placed a cap on the nipple. The muzzle was towards the ground, but the unexpected explosion altered its potation. and the bullet struck the ground, ricochetted, and entered the thighs of Privates Norman and Gard,who were standing together twenty yards off. They were con veyed immediately to the Royal Albert Hospital, Devon port. Aniputation was found to be necessary in both cases, and the operation was performed yesterday at the hospital. Mr. Norman's kg is taken off about six inches below the hip, Mr. Gard's leg only four inches below the joint. Mr. Norman is the only child of Mr. Alfred Norman, archi tect; Mr. Gard is clerk in tho Savings-bank with his uncle, the actuary. LION Slloorthro.—Two of our military Nina rods, Lieutenants Stacey and Milling, have been lately to the Joonagbur geer, or forest, in quest of large game. The latter officer, before leaving the deer in company with his brother sportsman, managed to bag two lionesses and a large lion. The latter, a huge monster, measur ing nearly eleven feet from the tip of the nose to the shaggy end of the tail, appears to have tried the patience and mettle of its antagonists. At the first meeting the encounter ended in a fleshy wound, which made the " lord of the forest" scamper into the jungle, leaving a gory track to mark the path. The pur suit was about to be given up after a long search, when a native discharged a " Manton" into the brushwood, and the lion re-appeared and made a dash at the two officers, who allowed the brute to come pretty close up before firing. The simultaneous volley, so far, however, from slacken ing the velocity of the charge, accelerated the motion. In a twinkling of the eye both sportsmen bounded a few faces on each flank, leaving a passage for the in furiated beast to pass, and immediately after, on the lion re-facing, planted a bullet (Lieutenant Tinting, I believe), between the brute's two eyes, which brought it lifeless to the ground. The triumph was signalised by a bumper of iced cham pagn e. Lieut. Stacey, since the return of his companion, has, it is said, bagged two tigers, a tigress, and two cubs, and some half-a-dozen panthers and cheetas. Correspondent of Deeean Herald. MORMONS FOR UTAH.—The exodus of Mormons from this port, en route for the Salt Lake, continues. Several vessels have been chartered by the Mormon agents in this country for the conveyance of emigrants to America. Some hundreds of the followers of Joe Smith sailed& short time ago, and no less than 700 took their departure on Satur day from Liverpool for New York on board the Emerald Isle—one of Messrs. Tapscott's magnificent packet shipe— commanded by Captain Gill e spie. The emigrants were chiefly Germans, Welsh, and Scotch; a good proportion of them were females. They all appeared to be persons of the middle claim, chiefly small farmers and artisans, and seemed to be well supplied with luggage and funds. The vessel in which they sailed is well known in the passenger trade, and was admirably fitted up with all the necessaries for the health and comfort of the passengers during the wage.— Liverpool Mercury.
