FRIT:D.—IMITATION COINS. —Frederick George Harri son, a well-dressed young man, was charged with know ingly uttering two medals resembling the current coin of the nation, with intent to defraud, and also with obtaining 10s. from Sarah Hicks, a young woman, by fraud. Mr. Pollard prosecuted for the Mint authorities. The prisoner passed the night with the young woman Hicks, and on leaving put two coins on the table, with the words " To Hanover" on them, and asked her for 10:3. change which she gave him, believing the coins to be sovereigns. She asking him whether they were good, and he said they were, and on her following him he threatened to split her head. The next day he mot Hicks and told her, referring to the giving of the coins that that was the way ho got hiyliviug . She afterwards gave him into custody. The pr:suncr asked the prosecutrix wk , ther be was sure he was the man who gave her thi c u t s, and site said she was, and a witness also swore the p,oSiDer wits the man she having lent him a pa,At of cards to show her the " three card trick," and to tell pictures with. D:ckius, 1. ell, said that ou taking the prisoner hit custody ho said that he had an objection to walking through the streets with a constalAe, and ask, tl to have a Hansom cab. On searching him he found upon hint a similar medal to those produced. The prisoner said ho was innocent of obtaining the 103. rotti the prosecntrix. Mr. Pollard said that a clauso had Wen recoatly intro duced into the Currency Act to meet such cases as the present, where medals resembling the current coin of the realm were uttered. Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for trial on both charges. WESTMINSTER. CHARGE or ROBBING A PARTNER. —Mr. John Gladwin was re-examined, charged with stealing £270, the moneys of a copartnership entered into between him and John Edward Turbell. Mr. James Lewis prosecuted ; Mr. Ribton, instructed by Mr. W. D. Smyth of Rochester, defended. On the 4th of December the partnership commenced in the Fulham-road, the business being that of auctioneers and estate agents ; they put £250 each into the concern, and the money was banked at the London and Suburban, Fulham-road ; the cheiues were to be initialed by the partner who did not draw them, and several were so drawn, tut on February 2 the prisoner drew one for £270 without initialing, and then absconded, living under an assumed name in the country. Turbell had brought au action, and recovered half the amount from the bank, and there was still a balance of over £lOO in the bank belonging to the partnership. _ The evidence was conflicting about the countersigning, the clerk stating that if it were so it should have been en tered in their books. Prosecutor was cross-examined by Mr. Ribton at great length to show that they had quarrelled and prisoner had wished to determine the partnership and agreement, but nothing was elicited. Prisoner was again remanded, bail in £lOO being re quired. THAMES.

Soon afterwards the constable heard a crash in the street, and upon going out SAW a gas lamp and iron post, belonging to the White chapel Board of Works, broken up into a hundred pieces, and the prisoner standing by exulting in the mischief he had done. Mr. Paget asked the prisoner if he meant to spend all his time in prison. The prisoner —I want my rights. ' Mr. Paget--Your rights ? You deserve a sound flog ging ; you are a dissipated, drunken, mischievous follow. Newman— lie has been committed to prison twice in the course of the last six weeks. Mr. Paget—Ho has been committed to prison 100 times. 11e is a nuisance to society. The prisoner was committed by mo four years and a half ago, when I was just ap pointed. 110 is a destructive ill-conditioned impostor, a regular mendicant. It is no use to fine him. Ho is sen tenced to two months' imprisonment and hard labour. Take him away, and don't let him remain hero a moment longer.

On Thursday Mr. Murphy again attended at the Bir mingham Police court, to prosecute the two young men who had been taken into custody on the previous day for threatening and endeavouring to assault him. The pri soners were William Gilbert, a zinc-worker, and Thomas Mannion, a bricklayer, and the magistrates on the bench were Mr. Kynnersley (stipendiary) and Lieutenant-Colonel Ratcliff. It was proved that the prisoner Gilbert, as soon as Murphy left the police-court on the previous day, threw a atone at Murphy's head with great force. The stone missed Murphy, but struck a man who was close beside him. Gilbert was convicted, and required to pay a fine of ss. and costs, or go to prison for seven days. As regarded Mannion, it was proved that he went up to Murphy with clenched fists and threatened to strike him. Murphy himself gave evidence against the prisoner, and said that he had threatened to " do " for him. Mannion, it appeared, had a very bad character, ard had been several times convicted of a similar offence. He was ordered to be sent to prison for six weeks. At the close of the case, Mr. Murphy's solicitor, Mr. Parry, app:ied to the magistrates for protec tion to Mr. Murphy whilst he returned to his OIS n house; and Superintendent Sheppard was instructed to accom pany him h , ,me. The superintendent accordingly, with a Lumber of police constables, escorted bins to the Bull Ring, where lie got into a cab, in which he reached his chapel, in Wrottesley•strcet, without molestation. Mr. Murphy has addressed a letter to the Lord Chan c licr in reply to rec, nt strictures in the House of Lords. He explains his vocation—that of a public lecturer against Popery, preaching loyalty to the throne, and obedience to the laws. He declares that lie has been systematically mis represented by the press. He does not remonstrate with Roman Catholics. " But for the purpose of warning I read to adult Protestant men extracts from Romish text-books, that they may know what sort of teaching their wives and children are exposed to, if they should come under the influence of the priesthood ; and for the same good purpose my wife reads to English Protestant women the like examples. Irish Roman Catholics I do not invite, lio not address them, I do not desire that they should come to my lectures." In such a work he considers he has a special claim for protection from a "Liberal Government." He points out how differently violent politicians, such as Finlen and Bradlaugh, have been treated. He is not the only sufferer in this cause. " Mr. Flynn, Mr. Hous ton, and others—all more loyal subjects than Drs. Man ning, Ullathorne, or Cullen—have been in the same way put down by provincial magistrates at the instigation of priests. One, Mr. Mackey, is now in prison." The letter was accompanied by various documentary proofs. Its receipt by the Lord Chancellor has been acknowledged. SHARE LIST. atiii-t;.2l;zi AND STOClib Closing Business Paid. Pi ror. dene.

The Con stitution of Wednesday, referring to the telegram, states that the bullet came from a catapult or air-gun over the roofs of the houses, and that no personal injury was intended, although one of the printers had a fortunate escape. The same journal reports that on Monday evening a bullet was fired into the house of Mr. Kingston, Princes-street, Cork, in a similar way, and, excepting the breaking of the glass, did no damage. But the other outrage in Cork is a most serious affair. The following particulars, in addition to those transmitted by telegraph, are furnished by a correspondent of the Dublin Express:—" The residence of Mr. Pope Gray is situate about two miles from Cork, in a picturesque spot studded by thick clumps of trees, between Douglas sniL Blackrock. About nine o'clock on Tuesday evening Mrs. Gray was walking in the grounds, the weather being fine, when she observed four men approach the house, and believing that they came with no friendly intention, she hurried into the house and raised an alarm. Mr. Gray, who had been ill for the last three months, was seated in an armchair, M the parlour, when she rushed in, crying out that the Fenians were coming, and, banding him a revolver, placed herself behind his chair. Immediately one of the party, who is described as a well-built, active, and determined looking man, came in. Confronting Mr. Gray, he raised his band and displayed, as Mr. Gray believes, the barrel of a revolver, at the same time uttering some words which that gentleman did not hear. Observing his threatening motion, Mr. Gray kept his eye steadily fixed on him, and, taking deliberate aim at him, fired. One of the servants and a lady who was present state that the stranger also fired, as they heard two shots together. When the smoke had cleared away, Mr. Gray was surprised to find his visitor still standing before him unhurt. The bullet, it is believed, grazed his head, as it was found on Thursday morning imbedded in the plaster of the wall behind where he stood. Mr. Gray instantly fired a second shot, and this time with evident effect, for the man put his hand to his head and rushed out of thehouse. While this Beetle was going on in the parlour two of the party held the servants in check, and, presenting revolvers at the bead of one named Sweeny and his wife, demanded arms. The fourth man acted as sentinel at the door. When they found that their comrade had been wounded in his unsuc cessi ul attempt,theyleft him to his fate and rapid]) retreated. Mr. G ray made Isis way to the doorof the room and called upon thin to come on, but they w ere soon out of reach. The wounded man was unable to follow, and laying himself down at the hall door, he Legged to be admitted, as he had received a wound. It was thought that this appeal was a mere stratagem, and although the inmates of the house were now all armed, they hesitated to let him in until Mr. W. Conolly, of Clavier-hill, who had been alarmed by the shots and came round with a pistol to render assistance, found the man lying on the ground, and told Mr. Gray. He was then admitted and treated with kindness. The Rev. Mr. O'Connell, a priest, and Dr. O'Flynn, a medical gentleman, having been sent for, arrived soon afterwards. The wounded man expressed great contrition, and said that his companions bad taken his revolver, but he refused to give the slightest information. The police arrived at an early hour yester day morning, and examined the premises. They were unable to find any trace of the ball supposed to have been fired by the man, and Mr. Gray cannot say whether he fired at all ; but others who were in the room state that he did fire. He was identified as a keeper named Andrew Campbell, connected with Dr. Osborne's Lunatic Asylum, Blackrock. He has been for a long time suspected by the police. Three other men in Dr. Osborne's employment were arrested, but they were not identified as belonging to the party, and were imme diately discharged. Mr. Gray is a gentleman who has kept clear of politics, never having given a vote for any candidate, and he is therefore surprised that his house should have been singled out for a Fenian visit. The death of Campbell has already been noticed. Some bullets were found in his possession, and some ammunition in his house." THE SCOTCH HERRING FISHERY.—A telegram from Wick states that the Lewis herring fishing continues a failure, and is not half the ordinary catch. One fishing boat has been run down by a fishing smack and aban doned ; crew saved. A boat was swamped and a fisherman from Morayshire drowned. Weather dreadfully cold. FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION . A fatal boiler explosion has taken place at Sherburn House Pit, about three miles from the city of Durham. It appears three boilers are used at the colliery, and at the time above mentioned, as the enginemen were sitting in the engine -house, No. 1 boiler, the one nearest the engine -house, suddenly expludA. A number of workmen zt once rushed to the spot, when it was found that the engine-house had been knocked into a heap of ruins, and the three unfortunate men buried in the debris. One-half of the boiler was found about 200 yards to the right and the other about 100 yards to the left of the colliery. The colliery is the property of the Earl of Durham. SNOW IN JUNE. —The most extraordinary weather at present prevails in the county of Westmoreland, and has done now for many months. On Wednesday morning the hills to the north were entirely co vered with snow, and the drifts were three or four feet in depth. Nor was this strange and unseasonable phenomenon confined to the higher range of moun tains ; on the contrary, the white wintry mantle had fallen as far down the valley as Stavely, a village between Kendal and Windermere, and occupying a most sheltered position. The scene was most extraordi nary, and, so far as the memory of the oldest inhabitant went, quite without precedent in the whole range of atmospheric phenomena. A sharp, cold wind prevailed from the north, and the general appearance of the sky and clouds was more suggestive of February than the middle of June. Indeed, the wind has been, with but few ex ceptions, northerly for the last six months. Vegetation of all kinds is very backward. MR. FRITH'S "DERBY D AY."— The explanation of the exhibition of Mr. Frith's "Derby I)ay" at Vienna is now supplied by the artist himself. Ile says : " When Mr. Gambart, the publisher, had possession of " The Derby Day," he had a copy made from it, by a French artist, for the avowed purpose of assisting in the en graving. This copy—never touched by me—he says (I now quote from a letter just received from him from Switzerland) ` has been consigned for sale to a printseller in Vienna. It must be that which is being shown in Vienna. I am loth to believe, as a letter of yours in the Daily Telegraph seems to imply, that our correspondent is representing the picture as your own. It was invoiced to him as a copy.' English artists, as a body, are very anxious for the good opinion of their foreign brethren, and the smaller a man's reputation is the less he likes it to be • - imperilled by Such frauds - as . the one — you have kindly per =Med me to expose.

Superintendent Draper, of the 1) division, watched the case on behalf of Colonel Henderson, the Chief Commissioner of Police. Mr. Lewis, sen., of Ely-place, appeared for Emanuel and several of the other prisoners, and Mr. W. 11. Davis, of Golden-square, for Medex. When the prisoners were placed in court, all hav ing surrendered to their bail, Mr. Lewis said he must ask for an adjournment, as he bad not had sufficient time to receive instructions from his clients. Mr. Davis also, on behalf of his client, wished for au adjournment. Superintendent Draper had no objection to the adjournment. From what could be gathered it appears that Inspectors Hindes, and Llcas of the D division, with a posse of constables under the com mand of the superintendent entered the house named and apprehended the prisoners, and also took possession of a number of cards and betting books. Superintendent Draper in Lis endeavour to apprehend one of the parties has seriously hurt his right ankle. All parties agreeing, Mr. Mansfield adjourned the case for a week, allowing all parties to be at large on their own recoguisances in the sum of £lO. HORSES STRUCK OUT OF THEIR ENGAGE ►NENTS.
