RAREY at the ALHAMBRA PALACE. -LJ-R- —Many inquiries having been made during the past week by noblemen and gentlemen as to when Mr. Rarey would give the next EXPOSITION of his system of subdu ing vicious horses, and of the proper manner of gentleing and teaching the horses for all practicable purposes, he has the honour to announce that he will give one on Saturday next, August 6, at the Alhambra Palace, Leicester-square, commencing at 12 o'clock, when some new and interesting subjects will be produced, One of them is a proud lively savage, which, from his antecedents and present appearance, promises to be a good subject to test to the uttermost Mr. Itarey's skill in dealing with dangerous horses. The follow ing letter has been addressed to Mr. Rarey by the owner of the horse: - " 34, Worship-street, Finsbury, August 1, 1859. " Dear Sir,—ln reply to your note of inquiry with regard to the character of our horse, we beg to inform you that in his present condition we consider him a most dangerous animal, and shall be most happy to place him in your hands to receive a lesson of obedience, and also to have your advice as to his proper management in future. The horse, having killed one our men, is now kept securely tied up by the head with three strnng ropes, to prevent him from doing any further 'flinty. He is never approached except by climbing over the partition of his stall in front of him, as no man could go into It in the ordinary way. He is a high-spirited, courageous borne, and if he could be broken of his vicious propensities would be a most valuable one. " We, are, dear Sir, " Your obedient servants, (Signed) "W.

By F. B. COURTENAY, And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management Is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."--Medical Circular, Dec.

Address, James Wal lace, Esq., Wilford-house, Burton-crescent, Tavistock-square, London, W.C. THE AUSTRIAN ARMY IN ITALY. (From the Correspondent of the Times.) Field-Marshal Count Schlick, once, on a visit to England, having heard much in military circles of the discipline of the Guards, proceeded to Hyde park to see them drilled. The men went through their exercise admirably, and Count Schlick ex pressed in apprcpriate terms the pleasure he felt at the precision of their movements. One thing, he confessed, excited his wonder. There was but one officer present, and the parade was directed by a sergeant-major with a walking-stick. " How," said Could Schlick, " can an army produce Gene rals when the officers of a crack corps are absent from drill, and the men are commanded by a man with a walking-stick ? In Austria officers of every grade go through the same fatigues as the men they command. Whether in peace or in war, the private and the subaltern, the captain and the colonel, rise at the regulation hour and take part in the duties of the day. They are initiated from the first to the simplest forms of exercise and the most complicated evolutions of masses." The natural inference from remarks such as these is, that Austria has excellent Generals as well as first-rate subalterns in her armies. But the campaign suddenly terminated by the peace of Villafranca has practically demonstrated that the Auste.aa armies had no leaders worthy the name. Their vaunted experience has invariably led _to defeat. ,To what cause can this result be assigned ? The Austrian army hid the reputation of being the best drilled and disciplined and the most admirably organised army in the world: The Staff was a specially instructed Staff, intimately acquainted with all the duties of the field. Its materiel was perfect. From the smallest cooking pot to the largest transport waggon everything was in order. It could be ascertained with mathe matical precision where the regimental farrier would stand in the lines of a camp, where the smallest baggage-waggon would be placed. How came it that an instrument so perfect worked so ill ? Various causes combined to produce this result. We have had complaints of favouritsm in the Eng lish army ; but in Austria the system is carried to a point unknown in this country. The right man is never in the right place. There is a story current in Austrian circles not complimentary to the noblesse of that country, but which indicates a truth that no one will feel inclined to disbelieve. An officer, discussing Count Cavour's policy, and dilating for the benefit of his hearers upon the horrors of the " Constitutionschwindel," exclaimed, "Let these principles but gain a little more ground among us, and the heads of our noblesse are not worth a day's purchase." " You forget," cried a wag, " that the Austrian noblesse have no be a d s ." The joke is, unfortunately, true. The Austrian noble is of a peculiar type. He is b fba any r audgvto Lichtenstein h s seete a ndnte i tor o egi n ieens , r; alalmostegdaTi against the always te pta hrameitfiJanissaries, ass a n, oisf s s c o s ha l t d ir7 i ie e ea r srx z a c ea a nni r shdee t ri . r i t g n i ans e still t l h e e a d P a thelffy s S armies , e w a r o z f en t h e rb e gs Austrian, a n Lch e n s tein Emperors.s The Austrian noble is a pleasant companion ; his i i s s to e o xc o e f s t s e i n ve su , p h e i r s fio w ia e l a . lt n h ia gr a e o a ci t u , a b in u t t an h e i e s e p d o u li e t a en ti e o s n s with literature, science, or art, if it exists at all, is of the slightest nature. His conversation is of balls and parties, the Opera, or the last little social scan dal. Even after a battle he will talk more freely of these things than of the tactics which directed an action, or the faults which produced a defeat. Like a party of Melton " swells " of the dandy day who would meet at dinner, and would be shocked were you to speak of the day's run, Aus trian nobles will spend the day after a battle in con versation upon solemn trifles. It is in favour of this class of men that the higher ranks of the Aus trian military hierarchy are monopolized. The pay of the service being altogether inadequate to secure a decent livelihood for officers, none but wealthy men have a chance of rising in it, and the posses sion of talent, versatility, or acquired advantages is an exception.

He despatched an aide-de-camp with a note to Count de-camp rode the 10 miles which separated him from the headquarters of the Commander-in-Chief in little more than 20 minutes, and presented his lett er to Count Gyulai, who read it and put it into his pocket. It was then respectfully suggested that Count Clam would e s t ee m it a particular favour if some assurance could be given him at once that tip assistance he so much needed would be speedily forthcoming, as in that case he would be able to infuse new vigour into his exhausted troops. Count Gyulai's reply was characteristic—" I shall proceed at once to dinner, and then give the neces sary orders ; and, by the way, you must be hungry (addressing the aide-de-camp) ; you shall dine also." Whereupon his Excellency sat down, and quietly partook of his meal, leaving Count Clam to wait for the reinforcements and the comforting assurance he was so anxious to obtain. Well might Count Clam exclaim on the evening after the battle, when he received orders from Cuunt Gyulai to put his corps in readiness for a renewal of the battle on the morrow—" Tell his Excellency that I shall be too happy to take a musket in my hand, and fight with the rest of the army, if it can be brought together, but as for my corps, it is in no state to do anything at present." What, one may ask, would have been the condition of Count Clam's corps had Count Gy uali condescended to forego his dinner P In 1848 Venice was lost to Austria because the General in com mand loved his supper too much. In 1859 a pro vinceis lost for a dinner. Count Gyulai retired in disgrace, but to wipe away the reproach that he was a General of parade, and that he had never seen a shot fired, he refused the Banship of Croatia, and returned to his regiment willing to serve as Colonel, since he could no longer be accepted as Commander in-Chief. How f✓w old soldiers would have had the courage to do this ! At first his misfortune hung heavily upon him, but it was remarked that after the battle of Solferino his spirits revived. A shrewd observer aid, after that battle, that it was remarkable how much of the Gyulai incubus still weighed upon tie Austrian army. The Count, however, consoled hithself with the thought that Hess had done no better. The retrospect of Solferino must be very irritat ing to all who feel interest in the military fame of Austria. It is needless to dwell on the well-known fact that the Austrian army was forced into action in positions most disadvantageous to them. That fact has been explained and commented on. It has been shown how difficult it was to defend a series of heights like those of SOlferino, which, lying at an angle oblique to the front of the attack ing force, were easily assailable on both flanks. But other causes besides these combined to produce a catastrophe. At Magenta the incapacity of the Commander-in-Chief produced its natural conse quence—defeat. 'At Solferino, where there was no Commander-in-Chief, and where each General did pretty much what he pleased, too many of the leaders proved themselves the worthy emulators of Gyulai. It was peculiarly unfortunate that among all the corps of the Austrian army that of Count Clam should have been chosen to hold the position in which most energy and decision were required. Clam's corps had never recovered the shock it re ceived at Magenta. It supported but feebly the efforts of the sth Corps. The weakness which it evinced and the confusion into which it fell at the most critical part of the day's operations proved that Count Clam was not the right man in the right place. A General, however brave he may be in the field, cannot be said to possess the necessary qualities of command unless he possesses, in addi tion, coolness, decision, and keen observation. A General who does not know where his reserves are placed incurs blame of no ordinary kind. Such, unfortunately, was the case with Count Clam. When his corps yielded and fell back the reserve of six batteries (36 guns) might. if forth coming have retrieved the disaster. But when that reserve was wanted it was not to be found Precious time was lost in searching for it, and Sol ferino was already in the hands of the French, when the digcovery was made that the reserve lay at Volta, four or five miles from the spot where it ought to have been. It was enough to raise a smile on the countenence even of an Austrian to hear a colonel say, at four o'clock in the afternoon, as he rode over the hill of Madonna delle Piave, that he was going for the artillery reserve of the First Corps at Volta. _ This, however, was not all. General Zedwitz, with six regiments of cavalry and six batteries of artil lery (about 15,000 men and 36 guns), unaccountably remained at Goito, and paralyzed by his absence all the efforts of the divisions forming the Austrian lett. The Generals of the 3d, 9th, and 11th Corps were waiting all day for Zedwitz. Inferior to the French in artillery, they longed for the moment when the heavy cavalry and artillery should appear and restore the equilibrium of the battle. But they waited in , vain. No cavalry, no artillery, came on. Lichtenstein, too, with his 25,000 men, where was he all this time ? Why had he not come up ? While the battle raged many a glance was turned towards the quarter whence he was ex pected, but he came not. Like Zedwitz, he never moved. It is very small consolation to the Aus trians to know that Clam, Lichtenstein, and Zed witz shared the fate of Gyulai. Their removal from the army could not repair the losses caused by their incapacity or neglect. The French said of the Austrian army, " The cavalry is superb, the artillery is admirable, the in fantry are children." The children fought Solfe rino, and fought it alone, for the superb cavalry and admirable artillery were not there. What a com ment,this on standing armies ! For years Austria has sacrificed her treasure and lavished her atten tion on this cavalry and artillery. It was of little moment whether the country were well or ill governed. " It is true," an Austrian might have said, " we have a bad Administration, hard taxation, a hateful police ; but, on the other hand, we have a splendid army, cavalry unsurpassed, and artillery famous all the world over." The time comes when this army, maintained at countless cost, is to prove that it is worth the sacrifices made in its favour ; anLbehold, when :t is 'ranted, the unrivalled ar tillery and cavalry are away, no one knows where ! Is this melancholy result only due to the fact that commands have been intrusted to incompetent hands, or is it possible that other faults are com mitted which cannot be excused ? One example alone will prove that the experience of years has not preserved the Austrians from gross military errors. When the batteries of the 9th Corps opened fire on the plain of Medole, they were so quickly mauled by the superior num ber of the French guns that it was found necessary to withdraw them. In order to do this with effect Mensdorf's cavalry was ordered out into the plain, and the hostile fire was then divided, with so much sucesss that the batteries were limbered up with smaller loss than might have been expected. But military men very properly inquire whether heavy Dragoons were not organised for a different purpose than that of drawing off an enemy's fire from artillery ? The veriest tyro understands how troops may be moved under cover of artillery, but what shall we say of artillery moved out of fire under cover of cavalry ? Had Count Mensdorf been near the enemy, there would have been some sense in ordering him out into the plain ; but it was really too bad to send him into a plain covered by hostile balls fired from a distance of 3,000 yards, and out of range of any guns such as cavalry divisions generally take with them. One can fancy the rage of the officer in command of the battery that first accompanied Mensdorf when, in five minutes after he entered the plain of Medole, five of his guns were dismounted, at a distance which rendered any attempt on his part to fire per- 1 fectly useless. A second battery took the place of the first one. In less than a minute three of the guns were dismounted.. The officer in command asked permission to dash forward regardless of 'nil odds, and fire a volley at close quarters. Count Mensdorf refused, thinking, doubtless, that if three guns could be dismounted in a minute at 3,000 yards, the remainder would be disposed of long before they could have got into range. Finally, the cavalry division retired with o ut coming in contact with the enemy. With regard to the purpose with which its movement was undertaken, that cer tainly was effected. But this purpose was not worth the cost. To save one set of batteries an other set was sacrificed, and, in addition, a vast number of men and not less than 500 horses. It was here that the superiority of the rifled cannon over ordinary artillery was finally and decisively .proved. The horizontal fire on tho plains of Medole dismounted guns more than 3,000 yards off. At Solferino the practice was by no means so success ful, and the French, firing from heights against heights, did not aim well. The rifled guns may be said, however, to have rendered invaluable service. If a military man were to be asked what groundhe would choose in Italy for the evolution& of cavalry he would at once pitch upon the plain of Medole as combining all the advantages that could be desired. The Austrians had the best opportunity of using that plain. Their cavalry was not forthcoming in sufficient numbers to neutralise the effects of the enemy's artillery ; but even had they been in force on that plain it is doubtful whether they would have done much, unless they had been fortunate enough to turn the French right. It is not alone the rifled cannon that has changed the conditions upon which modern armies must now fight—the use of rifled arms of every description must alter the:pld system of manoeuvring in the field. Austria, , with its fondness for old established rules, had not realised this is as the French have done. An Austrian soldier retiring from the field at Solferino remarked that the French fired much quicker than their opponents. Numbers of them, he said, fire from the hip without taking aim. This is true. The French, instead of a simple line of skirmishers in advance of their columns, had a double line, the rearmost of which fired over those in advance of them. Thus it was that the ground in rear of the Austrian front was alive with projectiles, which, although propelled without aim, did not fail to annoy severely the regimental reserves. It It as this system of firing at high elevation which ren dered the Rocca-hill at Cavriana untenable by the Emperor of Maria and his staff long before the French were in close proximity to the spot. It was this system of firing which made the Austrian sol diers remark that they preferred fighting in the foremost rank to standing in regimental reserve. Other curious facts may be mentioned as illus trating the condition of the Austrian army. It has been said, and is quite true, that there are no field hospitals in the Austrian army. This is part of a system upon ;which much may be said on one side or the other. The Austrians never carry tents in Italy. They say that field hospitals fox the sick and tents for the healthy are not required, because Italy is so thickly studded with villages that shelter can always be obtained for the troops, and the system of transport is so perfect that the sick can always be carried to hos pitals in large towns. Unfortunately, the hospitals of large cities like Verona and Mantua, though vast and airy, are not capable of containing one-quarter of the sufferers in such an engagement as Solferino; and after every ward in Verona had been filled it was found necessary to send off the majority of the wounded to Vicenza, Venice, and Innsbruck. How many men perished of exposure to heat and fatigue consequent upon travelling under suffering it is almost impossible to say, but this and the absence of a sufficient number of medical men caused the loss of many soldiers whose state was not such as to render it. impossible to cure them. Again, the perfection of the Austrian transport is not an unmixed benefit. It encumbers the roads and prevents rapid motion. This was seriously felt at Solferino, where the transport trains impeded the movements of the columns. The small-arm ammunition also, being in carts, was so not easily supplied to the men in battle as it ought to have been. It may give some insight into the condition of a country through which an Austrian army of 150,000 men moves to say that were the whole of it marching upon one road the head of the column would be 120 miles from the rearmost file. It is calculated that, independently of the cavalry and artillery, the transport train of the Austrian army in Italy employed 100,000 horses. Finally, as to the condition of the Austrian soldier going into battle. There . is no doubt that an ill-fed army does not fight so well as one which freely partakes of food. Now, the Aus trian army is an ill-fed army. The rations of a soldier in Italy consisted of lb. of beef and a pro portional quantity of bread. Neither wine, nor spirits, Ivor coffee are part of the bill of fare. If the Austrian soldier wants more than his ration he buys it. This is a fruitful source of disorder. On a m-..i.rch the soldier falls out of his rank to buy cheese or bacon. He must run to resume his place, and he eats in the ranks. He is obliged so to satisfy his appetite and quench his thirst because the regulation is that he shall cook but once a-day. In time of peace the meal is cooked and served at a regular hour. In time of war, on a march, the cook ing takes place in the evening, after the bivouac is prepared. The meal having been eaten, the soldier lies down, and is not entitled to another for 24 .hours. The result of this et Solferino has already been mentioned. The soldiers ate their dinner on the evening of the 23d, and were not entitled to another until the evening of the 24th. In the meanwhile a battle was to be fought on an empty stomach. Much was said of the hardships endured by English soldiers in the Crimea because their coffee was not roasted and ground for them. The Austrian army get no coffee at all, and receive no ra tioas of spirits or wine. " It is shameful," said Count Rechberg (a civilian) at Verona, " that the Com missariat should not feed the army better." " The Commissariat is not to blame," was the reply ; "it is the system. For 40 years and more the Austrian army has been so fed, and it is only now you discover that the ration is insuf ficient." The result of this discourse was that ad ditional rations were served out to the troops, which is very like beginning to train a horse after he has lost a race. This generosity as to rations - was only visible, however, after the signature of the armistice of Villafranca, for previous to the suspension of arms there was every reason to fear that the supply of food to the army would be diminished rather than increased. It is a remarkable example, indeed, of the improvidence of the Austrians that their sup plies were failing at the very moment when provi sions were becoming most necessary. Their impro vidence had been equally great in another direction. In their anxiety to strengthen Pavia and Piacenza, they took a vast number of guns out of Verona to arm the walls of those cities. When they retired those guns were blown up, or sunk in canals and rivers. Verona remained imperfectly armed ; but, as it was not anticipated that the war would be so unsuccessful as to make a siege of Verona imminent, this unreadiness was not a subject of much anxiety. For the same reason l i the victualling department of the fortresses had been neglected. The disaster of Solferino brought these omissions into serious notice. To defend Verona without guns or provisions was impossible. Those who have attentively read the history of the siege of Sebastopol know that the Russians con stantly 'renewed the ordnance of their works from the inexhaustible supplies of their arsenal. At Verona, on the 25th June, 150 guns were still wanting to complete the defences, and as for re serves in the arsenal, there were none. Again, with respect to food, if the French had commenced the siege at once it was a certainty that the supply then at hand would not last six weeks. It is not extra ordinary, under these circumstances, that the Em perorFrancisJoseph should have desired an armistice. It has been said that the first overtures for a sus pension of arms came from Louis Napoleon, but this is a mistake. The Emperor of Austria asked for and obtained the armistice, which was for him an absolute necessity. Why the armistice was granted by France is not so well known. The armistice caused no surprise in the Austrian army, except in so far as its duration is concerned. The signature of the peace did create surprise and in dignation, but it may be assumed with certainty that Francis Joseph would not have accepted it had he not felt that it was the best thing he could hope for under the circumstances. The reasons which swayed his decision were partly military, but mainly political, and these last it is not the purpose of the present statement to touch upon. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CIRCUIT.—LEwis, AUGUST 4. (Before Mr. Justice Crowder.) James Mitchell, 29, a young man of gentlemanly appearance, described as a land surveyor, pleaded guilty to a charge of forging and uttering a cheque for £4O, with intent to defraud. It appeared that the prisoner had taken up his abode at the Marine Hotel, at Hastings, in com pany with a female, and that he represented him self to be Lord Charlville, and was consequently treated with all the respect becoming the position he had assumed. He and his companion lived on the best of everything the hotel could produce until the bill amounted to £35, and he then borrowed £5 of the landlord, and gave him a cheque for £4O, signed " Charlvilie," which turned out to be of no value. The prisoner put in a written statement, which represented that his friends were highly respect able, and he had himself been educated at Cam bridge, and had followed the occupation of an estate agent, but from unavoidable causes he had become reduced, and distress had driven him to commit the offence to which he had pleaded guilty. Upon these facts he entreated his lordship to pass a lenient sentence upon him. The learned judge said the prisoner had pleaded guilty to a very grave offence, and it was painful to see a man apparently of good education, and who seemed to have formerly filled a respectable position, in such a situation as he stood at present. With regard to the condition in which he represented himself to be at the time he committed the offence, he could not help expressing his opinion that no one could be reduced to such a condition unless he had been guilty of some great misconduct, and he should have felt it his duty to pass a much more severe sentence than the une he was about to pro nounce if he did not consider that the punishment of imprisonment to a man in his condition was much more severe and irksome than it would be to a per son in a lower condition of life. He then sentenced the prisoner to be kept to hard labour for twelve months. James Goble surrendered to take his trial for the manslaughter of Charles Hammond. Mr. Wyatt prosecuted; the prisoner was de fended by . Mr. Roupell. The prisoner, it appeared, was the landlord of the Wheatsheaf public-house at Arundel, and on the night mentioned in the indictment, the de ceased, who was his brother-in-law, and several other persons, were at the house, and the whole of them were more or less the worse for liquor. In the course of the evening a quarrel took place be tween the prisoner and the deceased, and the former struck his brother-in-law several violent blows, and he died soon afterwards of congestion of the brain, the death being apparently partly attributable to the condition of drunkenness of the deceased, no doubt accelerated by the injuries he had received. Mr. Roupell, in his address to the jury for the defence, endeavoured to show that the death of the deceased arose from the drunken and excited con dition he was in at the time, and that the prisoner therefore ought not to be convicted upon the pre sent charge. Mr. Justice Crowder having summed up, the jury retired, and were locked up till nearly ten o'clock at night, when they agreed, and were con ducted to the judge's lodging and gave a verdict of guilty. The prisoner was this morning sentenced to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for three months. John Harman surrendered to take his trial for wilful and corrupt perjury. Mr, Robinson and Mr, Merrifield conducted the prosecution; Mr. Digby Seymour, of the Northern Circuit, was specially retained, with Mr. Pearce, for the defence. The defendant is a man of some position and property at Brighton, and it was stated that at the last election for the western division of Sussex he set off in a carriage, drawn by four greys, to offer himself as a candidate. The offence imputed to him was, that upon the hearing of a summons before the Brighton magistrates; which charged Mr. Cheal, the landlord of the Sun Hotel, at Brighton, with an offence under the Victuallers Act, he swore that on the 12th of May, which was a Sunday, per sons had been served with spirits and wine after twelve o'clock on Saturday and before one o'clock, p.m., on the day named. It appeared to be very clearly made out that the defendant had made a statement to this effect, and that it was not true ; but at the same time it appeared that there was a good deal of party feeling involved in the inquiry, and that the defendant had been imbibing pretty plentifully and was a good deal excited, and it was very probable that at the time he made the statement he really believed he was speaking the truth, but was mistaken in the hour. Mr. Seymour made a very able address to the jury for the defendant, and he contended that there was no evidence to show that the statement in question was made wilfully and corruptly, and said unless that was established he ought not to be convicted. Mr. Justice Crowder having summed up, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. OXFORD CIRCUIT.—HEREFORD, Aug. 4. CRIMINAL COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Byles.) THE LEDBURY MURDER. Yesterday, after the despatch of our parcel, Mr. Huddleston continued the defence of the prisoner. He proceeded at some length to analyse the evi dence upon which the prosecution relied. He con tended that there were plenty of other persons, and some of them of the lowest possible character, who frequented the office, and had opportunities of seeing money taken from the drawer which was robbed, and that part of the case therefore fell to the ground. A tramp or stranger, knowing the place was only protected by an old woman, might have seen the light upstairs when the child was put to bed, might have got in by means of a com mon latch key, and secreted himself ; or a man might have come to the woman with a false tale ; or some one might have obtained possession of the key in the day time, and watched his opportunity to use it, and have thus committed the crime. Nobody could say that Mrs. Baker had no gin in her hJuse before the murder. Where was the pre tence for supposing that the prisoner put the packet of silver in Ca'bbage•lane? If he had murdered the woman, and had had the whole night to him self, he would have selected some more distant spot to deposit coin that was marked. The evidence with regard to th e stamps had entirely failed ; and it was appallin g to think that a man might be hanged upon such testimony as had been produced with reference to the cheques. He Concluded by expressing a hope that God would guide them to a right verdict. The court them adjourned until this morning, when the greatest excitement prevdiled in the neighbourhood o f the densely crowded court. His lordship .slummed up with great solemnity. He said that probably the jury would never again in their lives have to enter upon such a momentous inquiry, and no time could be wasted and no labour misemployed in endeavouring to come to a right conclusion. He did not think it right for the in terests of the prisoner or the public that they should enter upo tat the last part of the investigation. The evidence in this case was of a circumstantial nature, but if they found all the circumstances tending to the conclusion of the prisoner's guilty, it would constitute a case upon which the jury might safely act. They were to dismiss from their minds everything relating to the prisoner's former life, because notbeing of that had been proved, and, as far as they were concerned, there was nothing against him but 'this terrible charge. His lordship then proceeded to comment upon the voluminous evidence, scannin g the circumstances with great clearness, the prisoner leaning his face upon his arms on the rails of the dock, never once raising his head. The other clerks in the office (said his lordship) came out of the investigation without a stain upon them, and it was painful for them to have to give evidence upon a capital charge against their former companion. The life of the prisoner was in their hands, and he thanked God it was not for him but them to decide. They had a solemn duty to discharge to the prisoner, not to convict him on suspicion,. but they had also a solemn duty to discharge to the public, not to acquit him if they believed him t o be guilty. Direct evidence there was none, but if juries always waited for direct evidence, very few criminals would ever be convicted. He crould see nothing in reference to the notes and cheques upon which it would be safe to rely. It depended entirely upon the credit they thought they might repose in the witnesses Seers and Thomas. He could hardly think that they had come 'to swear away a man's life on this occasion by swearing that which they had never seen. If they believed those witnessos, the prisoner was proved to be in possession, not of the stolen cheques, but of a cheque which was burnt in his room. That was what the evidence amounted to. He had, in the course of his remarks, said all he could say in favour of the prisoner. If the jury thought he was guilty, they must do their duty to their country and find him so. If they entertained any doubt, not a capricious, but a reasonable and • übstantial doubt, they would give the prisoner the benefit of the doubt. With the counsel on both sides, he wished that God might guide them to a right conclusion. The jury retired to consider their verdict. In about forty-five minutes the bailiff came back and said the jury could not agree. There was no action taken upon this announcement, and the jury con tinued their deliberations. At three o'clock his lordship sent a message to the jury that he would retire to his lodgings, and would return to court to receive their verdict. At ten minutes to four it was announced that the jury had agreed, and a message to that effect was sent to the judge, who immediately returned to court. The foreman then announced that they found a verdict of not guilty. A fearful sceue followed, for the prisoner, who had been led up in a state of exhaustion, was seized with a fit, and it required the utmost exertion of three strong men to restrain his violence. This was on his recovery from a kind of fainting fit, in which he fell when the verdict was delivered. A glass of water was procured, part of which he drank eagerly, and recommenced struggling. At length he arti culated "I am innocent, lam innocent." He ap peared not to comprehend the verdict, nntil it was repeated to him by Captain Glenn, the governor of the gaol, whom he clutched by the hand, and said, " God reward you for your kindness." He was removed from the dock with great difficulty, his face wearing an expression of terrible ghastliness, and his whole demeanour presenting the idea of a man whose reason was suddenly lost. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—WARWICK, ALG• 4. (Before:Justice Williams.) RIOTS AT FOLESIJILL. --- James Cooke, 22, miner, Sarah Bartlett, 35, mar ried woman, William Lenton, 22, miner, and Joseph Ward, 30, miner, were charged with having riot ously assembled with others, on the 14th of April, at the parish of Foleshill, and did then and there assault and beat one Thomas Leadbitter, contrary to the statute. Mr. Spooner appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. O'Brien for the defence.

Farrow, whic'i led to the birth of a child in June, 1858. The daughter of the plaintiff was confined unex pectedly, and the child was found concealed in a drawer in her bed room. She had no assistance rendered her at the birth of the child ; and after her delivery she was fonnd in an unconscious state, and remained so in the plaintiff's house for several weeks afterwards, during which time a coroner's inquest was held over the body of the infant found. The result of the inquest was a verdict of the jury against the plaintiff's daughter of " wilful murder. The mother of the child, in consequence of her ex treme illness, was not at once removed to gaol, but remained at the house of the plaintiff in the custody of two policemen, until a short time before the holding of the assizes at Ipswich in 1858. At the trial the grand jury ignored the bill charging her with wilful murder, but she was put upon her trial on a charge of concealing the birth, of which charge she was acquitted. This circumstance, combined with a libel which had appeared in one of the local papers, charging the plaintiff with inhuman con duct towards his daughter (and which libel was the subject of an action at the present assizes) was al leged as being the cause of the plaintiff's business as an outfitter and man-milliner, at Framlingham, for upwards of 30 years, being totally destroyed. It was alleged that the plaintiff's business, until the unfortunate occurrence referred to occurred, brought him in a sufficient income to maintain and bring up respectably a family of 23 children. The plaintiff and his daughter, Jane Ellen, were examined, and proved the above facts. This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. Mills addressed the jury for the defence, and the defendant himself was examined. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict -for the plaintiff—damages, £5O. THE NA FL Her Majesty's paddlewheel steam vessel Firefly, lying off Woolwich dockyard, under orders to sail to-day on survey of the Channel Islands, was yes terday run into by a collier brig passing up the river, and was damaged to such an extent as to delay her departure. Her complement of hands, consisting of experienced men in the service, yes terday joined from Jersey and Guernsey. She will probably leave Woolwich to-morrow evening or Monday.. The Aid, dockyard transport, Grundy, master, and the Hope, transport, nave commenced shipping war stores at Chatham dockyard. The Edgar, 91, screw, Capt. Baton, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral J. E. Erskine (blue at the mizen), second in command of the Channel fleet, sailed from Spithead yesterday, at 3 p.m., for Port land, under canvas. The Imperieuse, 51, screw, Capt. R. Maguire, steamed out of Portsmouth harbour to Spithead yesterday, exchanging the customary salutes with the Commander-in-Chief. -~ ~I,~J THE ARMY. Various experiments were yesterday made in Hyde Park, in the presence of the Duke of Cam bridge, the General Commanding-in-Chief, for the purpose of fully testing the advantages to be de rived from the adoption of the several inventions of Captain Grant, R.A., for providing the means of cooking rations for an army in the field or during a march by the process of baking, boiling, steam ing, &c., and also the novel mode of converting cooking utensils into pontoon rafts, or a bridge, by means of which an entire regiment or division might at a time of emergency pass over a river of considerable width. Three battalion and one hos pital waggon, fitted up with oven, stewpan, boil - ers, &c., left Woolwich at seven o'clock, and were escorted to London by a complete battery of Royal Artillery and a detachment of the Military Train corps, the latter having charge of the tents re quired for an encampment. On arriving at Hyde Park the battery was met by a detachment of the Grenadier Guards and the band of that regi ment, and an encampment was immediately formed near the Serpentine. A large number of spectators were present to witness the novel scene, and it was arranged that the whole of the troops should dine under the tents at one o'clock. The rations,consisting of meat, soup, and vegetables, were cooked in an excellent manner by means of a fur nace, which supplies the apparatus in each waggon, and pontoon ovens, which are heated by fires made in trenches. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge arrived on the ground about two o'clock, accompanied by numerous officers, to witness the mode in which the passage of troops may be effected by means of the pontoon ovens or stoves. Two rafts were quickly formed with a number of these utensils, and these crossed and recrossed the Ser pentine with four men on each raft with the utmost ease. His Royal Highness put various questions to the inventor, Captain Grant, and expressed his satisfaction with the result of the experiments. A review of troops by his Royal Highness will take place in Hyde-park on Saturday next. The 27th company of Royal Engineers, under the command of Capt. A. W. Durnford, vacated the camp at Aldershott yesterday morning, and in the afternoon marched into Chatham garrison, and joined head-quarters at Brompton barracks, pre paratory to embarking for the Mauritius. The company has been so reduced from various causes that it now numbers only about 70 men. As soon as it has been made up to its required strength of 120 men it will be despatched to the Mauritius, for the purpose of assisting . the 20th company in the engineering operations in which they are engaged. The officers and men belonging to the depot bat talions at Chatham are daily instructed in escalad ing operations with the troops of the Royal Engineers, in order that they may be perfected in that branch of their military duties previous to embarking for India. A detachment of the 18th Hussars, which has been stationed in Leeds for some time past, lett that town yesterday morning for Barnsley, on the way to Aldershott. They will be replaced by a squadron of the 16th Lancers, which is expected to arrive from Edinburgh to-day. R USSIA AND CHINA. A letter from St. Petersburg, dated July 21, gives the following summary of the treaty recently concluded at Tien-Tzin by Count Putiatine on the 13th of June last : Art. 3 says : " The commerce of Russia with China may henceforth be carried on not only by land in the old border localities, but by sea also. Russian merchant vessels mfiy land their cargoes at the following ports :—Shanghai, Ningro, Foo-choo-foo, Sla t _ mouim, Canton, Tai-wan-fou, Tscium-tehyin, and at other places opened to foreign commerce." In Art. 4 it is said „ Infuture no restrictions whatever shall be put upon the number of persons employed in the com merce by land, or on the amount of merchandise imported, or on the capital employed.” Art. 5 says : ~ The Russian Government has the right, should it think fit, to appoint Consuls in all the above named ports. It may send its vessels of war there to maintain order among Russian subjects sojourn ing at the open ports, and to protect the authority of the Consuls." In Articles 9 and 10 it is said:— ,‘ The Chinese Government, raeognising that the Christian doctrine contributes to the establishment of order and harmony among men, binds itself not only not to persecute its subjects for following the Christian religion, but to protect them equally as are protected the adherents of any other form of wor ship tolerated in the Empire. Considering the mis sionaries to be worthy men, not acting from any personal interest, the Chinese Government autho rises them to propagate Christianity among its subjects, and will not prevent them from pene trating into the interior of the Empire by all open localities ; consequently . a fixed number of mis sionaries shall be provided with certificates by the Consuls or frontier authorities of Russia." It is further said in Art. 10 : " All the members of the ecclesiastical mission of Russia, instead of sojourning at Pekin for a fixed time, as formerly, may, in virtue of a decision from the superior authorities, return at any time to Russia by Kiakhta, or by any . other route, and c tiler persons may be nominated in their stead and place at Pekin." DSO Wlr R he lt n C . L E I o V h E t OtßheE death M.P.—We regret to an DEATH OF THE HON. ROBERT Windsor of , Clive, M.P. for South Shropshire, who expired lyestserduaay f orenoon at his residence in John-str ee t, Berke re. The hon. gentleman had been in i n diff eren t health e3--c since the late general election, and was unable through illness to attend in the House of Commons on the division on the Marquis of Hartington's amendment to the address, which led to the overthrow of the Earl of Derby's Government. It was only a few hours before his dissolu tion that fears were entertained of his ultimate recovery. The probable character of the transformation of the French army and navy from a war to a peace footing seems now to be well understood, and Consols, therefore, notwithstanding the pa c ific announcements daily received, remain without any tendency to improvement. The de mand for money has been rather less active this afternoon, and at the Bank there was a falling off in the applications.- The mercantile bills which fell due yesterday were remark ably well met, no case of embarrassment of the slightest im portance having transpired.—Times' City Article. ,_,, G% 11 bed ear ged 17th 410. v ict, were 3ove- at ! ,Y, .. ; yrOn , vort f l '; fau °r ale 130 . o s . r t rSOP , IPPer r A b ' tiierf *r s° r ecto 9 '' iglu - ~~r ~i• a Asr. end 'Ate, 14 01 i
