A SOLICITOIt ROBBED OF BANK NOTES.—Mary Ann Brennan, a tall stout female, was charged before Mr. Tyr whitt with stealing from the person of Mr Frederick Dims dale, solicitor, of No. 13, Poultry, £JJ in bank notes and some gold and silver, and a quantity of memoranda. Mr. D;msdale said that he met the prisoner close to the Regent-circus, Piccadilly, when she accosted him. H o told her to go away, but she followed him into Jermyn street, walkng by his side for some distance. Ile got rid of her again, and she again came up to him and put her arms round him, and then put her hands into his pockets. Thinking there might bo something wrong he put his hands into his pockets and missed from cue his purse con taining twelve .C 5 notes ae.d £2 10s. in gold and silver. Mr. Tyrwhitt tu-ked the prosecutor whether he was quite cob: r ? The prisoner—He was blind drunk. The prosecutor said he knew whet he was about. The prisoner ran away and he ran after her, and a constable fortunately stopped her. He noticed while the prisoner was mar him that there were two tut n near, one on his right side and the other on the opposite side of the street, and as soon as he s,t off running after the prisoner one of the men caught his foot against his toe cud threw him down. He got up again directly and ran after the prisoner, and told the onstab:e that he believed she had passel something to us of the men. Police-constable George Pike, C. , 5 L, said he once had t.. prisoner, whose name was Maloney, and whose hus band was now undergoing seven years' penal sei•vitude, in custody at the Bow-street Police-court for picking pockets, and she was then sentenced to three mouths' imprison ment. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner. THAMES. THE TRUANT IlusnANn.—Mr. Pelham, solicitor, applied ou behalf of a Mrs. Elizabeth Blackbourn for a protection order to protect her goods, chattels, and money against her runaway husband, John Blackbourn, a fish port , r, who absconded on the 3d of August, 18GG, on which day she charged him on a summons with threatening her, and whom she had not seen since. The applicant had six children living, the eldest 22 years of age, the youngest 10 years of age.. She was married to her husband on the 2d of August, 1816, at the parish church of St. John, Wapping. Ho turned out to be a very bad husband, and he was not only lazy, but also a drunkard. The principal support of . her frmily rested on the shoulders of the wife, who had anuired a little property since her abandonment b her husband. She did not know whether he was alive or dead. Mrs. Blackbourn, a jolly, rosy-faced woman, of respec table appearance and good deportment, confirmed the statement of her solicitor, and said she wanted no assist ance from her husband, but she required protection for her property and future earnings. The protection order was at once grantmd, and Mr. Pel ham said he should immediately register it in the White chapel County Court. WESTMINSI ER. IMMINENT PERIL OF RAILWAY TRAVELLERS.-Wm. M‘Naughton, a boy of 14, was charged with throwing a brick at a railway train while in motion with passengers. James Thompson, a constable of the Metropolitan Dis trict Railway, said that at seven last night he was on duty on a waste piece of ground near Palmer's Village, West minster, and saw the prisoner throw some sand on a n engine as it passed. Directly after this a railway train passed, and prisoner threw a brick, which struck one of the carriages, and then fell upon the metals, to the great danger of the passengers. Tho boy said nothing. Ms mother declared that ho was not right in his head. Mr. Arnold—Then you should not let him out. Mother-1 keep him iu as much as I can. Mr. Arnold—You should keep him in altogether; be will kill somebody. Mother—My husband has been twelve weeks out of work. Mr. Arnold —That is no reason why this boy should throw bricks on to the railway. He is remanded for a week. GREAT NOR77IERN RAILIVAY.

The Orangemen of Ireland are well sati,fled with their Belfast meeting. All the forces of Orangeiem in a district where it flourishes were collected on Saturday and formal the most imposing demonstration in point of numbers since the commencement of the Defence agitation. The fact that Mr. Johnstone, M.P., was inducel to preside secured the attendance of the rank and file of the Orange Society, who, from feelings of jealousy, had kept away from other meetings. The meeting was chiefly composed of the working classes. Its numbers are differently estimated in the, voluminous reports of the proceedings which appear in the local journals. The Express states that at the commencement there were about 15,003 present, but that after some time, when the workpeople were re:eased from the mills, it received enormous accessions, and that it was ultimately computed at from 80,000 to 100,000. The number of tickets issued was 75,000, and One ticket was sufficient t) admit an Orange Lodge. Special trains broughtcontingents from a distance. From Monaghan and. Londonderry 1,800 Orangemen came, under the command of Captain Madden and Mr. Archdall. When they entered the Botanic Gar dens the " brethren " pill: on their scarves and other insignia, and marched in military order to their places around the platform, which was profusely adorned with flags and banners. The meeting was opened, of course, with the singing of a psalm and prayer. The chairman commenced the oratorical performances of the day with a speech, in which he referred to the Bangor procession in terms of satisfaction, and expressed the determination of Irish Protestants never toccnctde their rights to meet as Orangemen where and when they pleased to express their opinions. He characterised the Orange Institution as the noblest organisation ever devised by Protestants to main tain their cause and to carry Out the spread of Bible Christianity. The chairman's observations kindled the enthusiasm of the meeting. Mr. John Thompson, D.L., high sheriff of the county of Antrim, moved the first resolution, which contained a pro test against Mr. Gladstone's bill, as subverting the Pro teitant constitution of the country. Mr. John Guy Ferguson, Governor of the .Apprentice Boys of Derry, seconded the resolution. He assured the meeting that the "mighty heart" of the body to which he belonged was throbbing with one universal feeling of opposition to the spoliatory measure. Mr. William M'Cormick, an Episcopalian, vice-president of the Belfast Working Men's Association, and Mr. Joseph English, a Presbyterian working man, supported the resolution in speeches advo cating bold and determined action. Mr. Adam J. Macrory, president of the Presbyterian Constitutional Association, moved in a long speech the next resolution, which asserted the right of the Presbyterian Church to a con tinuance of the Regium Donum. The Rev. Dr. Baylee seconded the resolution. The meeting was also addressed by Messrs. Alexander Sims, W. Wallace, Rev. J. D. Crawford, Rev. R. Henderson (Presbyterian), and others in support of resolutions urging the Lords to cast out the bill, and adopting a petition to the Queen against it. The meeting was orderly, and passed off without creating any disturbance in the town, its political excite. ment being allowed to expend itself in the cool seclusion of the Gardens. FURTIIER DOINGS OF THE SPIRIT= RAPPERS. A few days ago we reprinted the evidence adduced at a recent meeting, of the Spirittialism Committee of the London Dialectical Society. The following narrative is in addition to what we then published : Mr. John Jones, of Enmore Park, South Norwood, gave au account of a stance which had been held at his house in July lad, as follows:—"It was on Friday, July 17th, about ten o'clock, in a room sixteen feet by thirty four, two gas burners a!ight. In the room was a heavy 100 table,arouud winch were ten chairs, seven occupied. The other three chairs were meant to repre sent my late wife, my daughter Marian, and my son Walter. I had placed en my wife's chair her last silk dress, on my daughter's the flannel robe she wore before passing away, and en my :son's chair his necktie. I was trying to think of some time to get us into a state of har mony, when suddenly m y . thoughts were anticipated ; my accordion began to emit sounds, and a most jubilant tune was brilliantly played. Bright lights, like stars, were seen moving up and down the keys during the hymn of praise. The accordion then gently rose in the air about four inches, and floated three feet round the table. A hymn was sung by my family, and then my aged mother was raised from the floor in her chair until her knees were on a level with the table top. My late wife's bonnet was raised from the vacant chair, and car ried to my daughter Edith. My late wife's chair then rose in the air with the dress on it, and leant upon my mother's breast. The chair then floated back to its place. The dress on the chair began to pass over and moved on Loa my mother's knee. Then my deceased daughter's chair moved round, with the rube extended on it, close to the table, shoved-my chair away, and :be chair and I were forced aside to make room for hers. ller chair then went from the table, passed by the rear of my chair, no human being touching it. Simultaneously Mr. Home was carried bodily away from the tab!c. It then proceeded to occupy the space vacated by Mr. Home, and gradually, and in sight of all present, rose up in the air. Mr. Jones also said that he had on snore than one occasion seen a large 100 table he was sitting at,. at his maztal wish, rise from the floor as high as the ceiling." Mrs. Itowcroft stated that in July 1860 she had seen le apparition of her husband. " I was lying," she said, on the sofa, at about six and seven o'clock in the evening, perfectly awake, and not thinking at all about my husband, when I beard three distinct knocks at the door. Thinking it must be one of the waiters, I said ' Come in,' and my husband, who had been dead five years, entered, dressed in the morning dress prescribed for British consuls—a blue coat, with Victoria buttons, a straw-coloured waist coat, and a white hat, such as he always used to wear in the summer. He had also a walking-stick, with a chamois horn handle. I jumped up and advanced towards him. He then went into the next room ; ani when I had recovered myself sufficiently to follow him he was gone." In answer to questions, this lady stated that she was unable to say how long the apparition lasted ; she had every reason to believe that her husband was poisoned on board a ship ; the door actually opened when she said " Come in ;" the door was not open when the apparition disappeared. Miss A. Jones gave an account of certain remarkable phenomena which she had witnessed at a stance held at Stockton Howse. Mr. Home, who was present, said that he was ill, the spirits were in him, and did not understand him. She saw a bodily form above his shoulders, and it took the form of a ccne. He went out on to the verandah, and was carried from thence right across the lawn, a distance of more than a hundred feet, to a rhododendron bed. He returned, bringing with him a piece of rhododen dron, and although it was raining fast he was not at all wet, and the soles of his shoes were dry. He had observed on going out that they would each have a different perfume given to them, and accordingly, as soon as he was gone, it seemed as if each one present had been sprinkled with a different kind of cc nt. This closed the evidence for that evening. SID END OF A CENTENAM4.N.—An old w supposed to be, 103 years of ale is reported to have died at I r stol. E'he caught her dress on fire while sifting ashes, and was so much frightened and injured that she soon afterwards died. ROYALTY AND THE EAELSWOOD ASYLUM.—HiS Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has kindly con sented to lay the first stone of the enlargement of the • Earlswood Asylum for Idiots, Redhill, Surrey, on Mon day, the 28th of June, and the annual fete and summer entertainment will take place the same day. Ladies desirous of obtaining purses to be presented to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and laid upon the first stone will be supplied on early application. Each five guineas collected will entitle to a life vote. THE LATEST VELOCIPEDE.—BouncI to be ahead of the world in everything, the Californians are in glee over a new invention in velocipedes. The four-wheeled machine is comfortable, the three-wheeled more convenient, the bicycle seems to need a marvel of skill and confidence to manage, but a resident of San Francisco has invented a one wheeled velocipede, which he claims is as easily balanced, longitudinally and laterally, and more easily worked than any of the others. The only improvement left wouldbe to go without wheels—but that would be returning to first prin ciples, and so will hardly be patented.—New York Times. NEWS FROM InELAND.—The following budget of news from Ireland is published :—A farmer named Dunphy, of Waterford, was visited on Saturday by men with blackened faces, who threatened him with something serious if he did not give up land in his possession. —The police at Cork are beginning to stir about the Fenians, and have commenced a search for arms and documents. Under a warrant from the Lord-Lieutenant they searched the house of Patrick Byrnes on Sunday, but found nothing but a report of the speech delivered from the prisoners' duck by the Fenian General Burke. Byrnes was one of the speakers at the late mass met ting. 7 -John Francis Kearns, one of the Fenians recently liberated, has become a lunatic, and has been placed in the Cork Asylum.—Con stable Crowley, who was wounded at the recent dis turbances at Ballyheigue, is getting worse. O'Hara is dying in the infirmary at Cork, and Dunne is not expected to live very long.—Several burglaries were committed in the city of Cork and neighbourhood during the past week. The new Mayor attendee the Bridewell on Sun day, and discharged three men and two women, prisoners for drunkenness ; and at the police-court on Monday he declared his firm determination to •wt down disorderly eondact. THE OEN±RAL ELECTIONS 1N FRANCE. PARIS, MONDAY'. The calm which previitea throughout the capital yes terday has not been broken to-day. The elections are passing off in the most pacific manner. The French do not like agitation in wet weather—a shower of rain would at any time prevent an insurrection in Paris—but here to-day the weather is splendid, and yet there is no agitation. Save that Paris is covered with bills, that the newspapers are doing aft excessive trade, and that a small crowd is assembled round some of the balloting places, there are no signs that an alteration is going on—certainly'none of the signs which ordinarily attend a contest in -England. The newspapers prosper in these exciting times. The sale of the Liberal journals especially is something incred ible,and even the semi-officials are attaining a circulation which they, ' will never reach again until the next general election. The reason of this sale is not very apparent, for the papers contain less now than at any future time. Whilst the Ballot is doing its work they must perforce be content with exhortations to the elec tors to vote on the right side. The billstickers are not less busy than the journalists. Nothing can be more impartial than their labours. They patronise all the candidates alike, and no aspirant to legislative honours can apparently afford to do without them. It has been reckoned that the various candidates for the Seine depart. ment, that is for the city of Paris, have issued 150,000 bills —an average of 3,000 to each. Of course many of the fifty who professed to come to the poll will receive no votes and have accordingly spent very little money. To avoid inconvenience, the voting places have been multiplied as much as possible. They are established in the halls of the Mairies, or other convenient buildings belonging to the State or the City of Paris. In each bureau are seated a president, and two assessors on his right and left ; and before the latter are placed registers containing the names of the electors. The urn stands in the centre of the table ; being,in fact, a wooden box with double padlocks, having a slit in the lid, through which the voting ticket is introduced. ' As each bulletin is deposited, the president, after a verification in the registers, tears off the corner of the card which had been handed to him, and says, " M. So-and-So has voted." In general very few groups were formed, the voters departing at once after depositing their bulletins. Nobody is admitted to this room except the voter;but it is easy for outsiders to see all that is going on. Very few sergents.cle-ville are employed in guard ing the voting places, nor does there appear the slightest need for them. The mode of voting varies comiderahly in different districts. At Montmartre the electors come in very, slowly one by one at intervals of two minutes ; whereas at the Batignolles the stream is continuous, and in Quartier of the Epinettes the eagerness to vote is very remarkable. But in all cases the business was conducted with the most unexceptional quietness. Th 3 same is reported by telegraph from the departments. The voting, we are told, is far more general than on previous occasions, but nowhere is there any disturbance. The electors then have behaved irreproachably, but the . same can scarcely be said, if report speaks truly, of the authorities. In the first place, the electors on the last two occasions have claimed the right of sealing the ballot-box with their private seals in addition to the seals affixed by the president and assessors. This year the privilege has been denied, and much discontent has been awakened. It is noteworthy that last night, at eleven o'clock, M. Tillers, accompanied by his friends, went to the Mairies of the 17th arron dissement and demanded to ses the ballot-box. It was shewn him, and he carefully examined the , .tterior to assure himself that the Lox had not been tampered with. The Maire, uho was not present when this was done, is very angry. Ile considers M. Thiers's conduct au insult, but then the authorities should not, in the first instance have forbidden the electors to exercise the privilege which they enjoyed in former years. The Tennis enumerates several arbitrary acts of the officials in the provinc , ..s, and no doubt the authorities in the c, aintry districts will not forget the experience of former years. But in Paris the Opposition is too watchful COMPLETION OF THE UNION PACIFIC BAILWAY. Some exciting scenes took place during the last days of the great work by which a railway Las been thrown across the American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific seaboard. The enterprise was carried on by two companies, the " Central Pacific" working from California to the East, and the Union Pacific crossing the Missouri into the desert from the West. These two companies were by no means friendly, and for some time past the squabbles and lawsuits in which their rivalry found vent seem to have scandalised even the financiers of New York. According to the Times corre spondent, this rivalry endured to the last, and prevented the junet7on of the two lines for several weeks. " The roadmakers of each company worked like heroes to extend their lines. The more miles of road, cheaply built, the more bonds there would be, and the more profit. The grading parties of each line met weeks ago, but they did not join. The companies did not love each other, so they turned the cold shoulder and passed by, and, each working on, for fifty-three miles the two roads were graded parallel to each other. Here was an excellent chance for trouble, and it came. Each road followed its surveys ; they ran into each other, and so did the roads, and so did the labourers, and so did clubs and stones. The roads were nearly always in sight of each other, sometimes but a few yards apart, and once they crossed. The labourers dug out each other's embankments, and filled up each other's cuttings ; they cursed and fought and fired blasts without giving native, so that a small earthquake, followed by a shower of d6bris, would greet the opposite party. Happily no human being was killed, but several mules were, and finally each party sent to headquarters for firearms for protection. They worked and fought on, building their roads side by side, delaying the junction and completion of the line until the managers concluded that the proceedings were too costly, and there was a compromise at Washington, which was speedily telegraphed to the Plains and restored peace there. By the compromise the Central Company abandoned its own graded line and took the Union Com pany's line. The track was laid on the latter. The Union paid the expense, and gets the Government bonds for fifty-three miles. Bonds were at the bottom of the whole trouble." The Bth of May was fixed for the formal junction, but owing to further difficulties it did not take place until the 10th. On that day the Pacific Railway was com pleted, and the project which was deemed a visionary scheme three years ago became an accomplished reality. All over the country the event was celebrated by bell-ringing, cannon-firing, processions, and oratory of the true American type. At noon, on the 10th, the last spike was driven in, every stroke of the hammer being announced by telegraph in every telegraph office of the States. " There were prayers and speeches, Te Deums' and Hail Columbian,' Old Hundredths' and ' Star-spangled Banners ; ' and of every incident as it happened all Americans were informed at the instant. Promontory Point signalled to New York, Chicago, San Francisco, New Orleans, Washing ton, 4tc., with the comprehensive salute, To every body ! Keep quiet.' By-and-by came another an nouncement of the beginning of the ceremonies— ' Almost ready : hats off. Prayer is being offered.' Then came a pause, during which the electrified ' everybody' was charitably supposed to be pray jug. This little task, however, was soon completed ; for the next message was, ' We have got done praying. The spike is about to be presented.' By-and•by came warning to look out for three taps on the bell, as the signal that the final blows on the spike were to be given. Then the hammer of the magnet tapped the bell, one, two, three, and at 2.47 Promontory Point triumphantly flashed the concluding message, Done.' A tie of polished Cali fornia laurel, bound with American silver, and a spike of Californian gold mark the place of union at Promontory Point, near Salt Lake, Utah." A diocesan conference, summoned by the Arch- bishop of York, opened at Sheffield on Monday. Amongst the subjects of discussion is set down the question of " how to attach the working classes to the Church." His Grace held en ordination at Sheffield on Sunday. The 34th West York Rifle Volunteers, who have been encamped at Woodsome-park during the past week, were inspected on Saturday by Licut.-Colonel Wombwell. In the course cf his remarks at the close of the proceedings, the inspecting eflicer expressed himself strongly in favour of occasional camp life, as enabling volunteers to get an insight into the duties that might be requirA of a soldier. At the Sheffield sessions on Saturday thirteen colliers were indicted for having riotously Lssembled at Mexbro' on the 11th April. The charge arose out of what is known as the Deuaby Main lock-out. The men were engaged under a month's notice, and the propriotors having resolved to discon tinue the einplo ment of union teen, terminated the ( ngagement with their han(ls on the usual notice, and set on non-unionists. The charge against the pri a. ners then was that they on the day named riotously assembled and endeavoured to prevent the non-uni9nists from following their lawful employment. The j nry ref urned a verdict against the accused, when the Court exercised its discrimination in dealing with the men, and ordered William Birkinshaw, Bowers, and Hodson to be bound over in their recoguisauces to keep the peace for three months ; Martin Birkinshaw was sentenced to three months, John Taylor and Samuel Tye to six weeks, and Calligan, Ford, I' ul wood, Johnson, Longbettom, Marland, and Morrill, to one month, all with hard labour.
