MGT' WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE. THIS DAY. —lllornialz, lh. 10m.—Afternoon, lh. 3Gm. ro-Molutow.-Morning, 2h. Om.—Afternoon, 2h. 22m. 4 44- unt t 7 jlC , - LONDON, TUESDAY, MARCH 19, 1867. We think we may congratulate Ministers upon heir new measure of Reform, which Mr. DISRAELI, with singular ability and great frankness, last night introduced into the House of Commons. Notwith- standing the very unfair treatment which it met with in some quarters, it appears, upon a candid consideration of its merits, that it deserves the sup- port and sympathy of the House. Not that any thing like an appeal to the forbearance of members need be made, for this measure is, in its details, fully calculated to meet the present requirements of the country. The course Mr. GLADSTONE pursued was one in every way unworthy of him, and not suitable to his responsible position as Leader of the Opposition. We are the more disappointed at this, because the right hon. gentleman gave us reason to hope at the commencement of the session that he would adopt a very different course, and one that would have conduced far more to his reputation. We can safely say that never, during his career as Leader of the Opposition, did Mr. DISRAELI mani fest so bitter a spirit of party, and act in so factious a manner as did Mr. GLADSTONE last night. There seemed to be but one meaning in it, ♦iz., that the bill must not pass. We protest against the Govern ment being treated in this manner, and there was no occasion whatever for the right hon. gentleman to make an exception to the general Parliamentary rule, which does not approve of criticism on the night of the introduction of the measure. Nothing whatever was said by Mr. DISRAELI to make it ne cessary for so violent a protest to be made. He put his measure before the House with great clear ness, and took great pains to make it. understand the principles upon which the Bill was based. We _ - think the conduct of the Leader of the Opposition the more ungracious because this measure of Reform has been an anxious task to the Ministers. There was no exaggeration in the remarks of Mr. Dis RAELI about the cost it had been to them. It was framed under great difficulties, and at very great sacrifices. They have had to appeal to a " high-spirited party, to make what no doubt to some was to a certain extent a sacrifice of prin ciples," but they all felt that the time had arrived wheu nothing would do but to consider this impor- tant question in a comprehensive manner. The right hon. gentleman drew a very proper distinction between " popular privileges and democratic rights." As for the objection that the bill contained " checks and counterpoises," Mr. DrsnAELI disposed of that at once, by saying that the Constitution we live under is a constitution of checks and counterpoises. So, again, with the notion that they should no assume that our society is divided into classes, he asks, very truly, why we should seek to conceal, in legislating for the nation at large, that this is a coun try of classes, and such it will ever remain ? "We desire," said he, in conclusion, "to give to every one who is worthy of it a fair share in the govern ment of the country, by means of the elective fran chise ; but, at the same time, we have been equally anxious to maintain the character of the house, to make propositions in harmony with the circum stances of the country, and to give a representation to the nation." Every one who has at all considered the question of Reform must know how very diffi cult it is to deal with ; but it is quite impossible for anything like a satisfactory settlement to be come to while people are so busy in looking for the defects of every new scheme that they cannot pos sibly see any of its merits, however numerous they may be. We feel the more indignant at the reception of tilis Bill in some quarters, because it really seems based upon a sound principle, and offers to those honestly desirous of settling this vexed question a very fair opportunity for so doing. It was very true what was said by Mr. DISRAELI last night on the subject of a " popular basis." Popular privileges and democratic rights are not " identical,'l although some persons confuse the terms in their minds. " Popular privileges are con sistent with a state of society in which there is great inequality of condition; democratic rights, on the contrary, demand that there should be equality of condition as the fundamental basis of the society which they regulate." We believe that more con fusion than enough has often arisen from the mis takes made upon this point, and the result has been that in many instances a man of any mark in the political world has been regarded by the public in general either as an enthusiast for reform of all kinds, or else as an enemy to all progress. This is not, however, the right way to look at the question, and one great proof of the advance we have made in these latter days is that it has come to be recog nised that men of - whatever rank, and of whatever side of politics they may be, can and will if they choose devote their minds to the study of the requirements of the people, and bring forward sound measures of reform whenever they may be required. Mr. GLADSTONE'S speech was chiefly distinguish able for its bitterness. He had evidently come down to the house in a hostile spirit, and he showed himself last night in this objectionable manner as a captious and uncompfotnising critic. He contradicted himself repeatedly, begin ning by saying that he would not prejudge the question, and immediately prejudged it in every possible way. His speech was as long as that of the Chancellor of the Exchequer's him self, which was proof positive that he meant to make a serious attack upon the Ministerial scheme. Mr. ROEBUCK also alluded to a discrepancy in Mr. GLADSTONE'S speech when he began by saying that the bill was a fraud pretending to let people in while it shut them out, while next he confessed that it let everybody in, and would ruin the British Constitu tion. We think it was very bad taste on the part of Lord CRANBORNE, his being in such haste to at tack his late colleagues, seeing that he might just as well have waited for a more suitable occasion. Mr. LOWE, while opposed to the scheme as a whole, was not so averse to it asMr. GLADSTONE. Mr. HENLEY'S speech was quite a relief—for, with all his wonted sincerity and straightforwardness, he gave the House excellent advice, which it would be well if they followed. He said if both sides of the House would set their shoulders to the wheel no doubt a satisfac tory result could be come to. Mr. BERNAL OS - BO RNE, again, deserves much favourable mention . for the spirited wanner ill which he came forward THE SUN, LONI ON, TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 19, 1867. 1.

Paris Exhibition, 1867, English Section, Class 23. to denounce party spirit, a spirit which be truly said might, if indulged in, strangle the last chance of passing a Reform Bill this Session. Sir G. B o WYER rightly designated Mr. GLADSTONE'S speech as captious and bitter, and showed that its object was to make Reform a party stalking-horse more than a question of national interest duly considered and properly treated. Mr. DISRAELI'S reply to these various speeches was a powerful one, the right hon. gentleman is always a master of the subject on these occasions and fully equal to any emergency. The general opinion of the House fully bore him out in his as sertion that Mr. GLADSTONE'S speech was evidently prepared, and, perhaps, intended for the second reading of the bill. " I thought as I listened to it, that perhaps the real intention was to have pre vented the second reading ever-being put from the chair. I think, however, that the candour and good sense of the House of Commons have already repu diated that manoeuvre." Mr. DISRAELI also com mented upon Mr. GLADSTONE'S sneering observations as to Lord DERBY having called his party together to state his views and intentions, adding that " reserve was not the present PREMIER'S characteristic." " But," added the right hon. gentleman, " I have heard something in my time of the great fault of eminent statesmen who have failed in public life because there was a want of frankness, and because they did not consult their party." The reminiscences of last session must still be fresh enough in the minds of every one for them to appreciate the full meaning of these remarks. Mr. DISRAELI said that, as a Government, they had been charged with incon sistency in bringing in a Reform Bill, but that the charge was a groundless one, and he could dispose of it by pointing to their doings in 1859. Very powerful was the concluding portion of the right honourable gentleman's speech, when he said that ho hoped the House would give a dispassionate consideration to the measure before them —adding, "If you throw out this Bill on the second reading you. may affect the position of Ministers, but you will still more affect the position of this house. Let it not be said that to-night, excited by rhetoric, which I may at least describe as prejudiced, you are deciding on a question in which the people of this country are deeply interested without even a complete cogni sance of the propositions that we are bringing for ward." This is a very true way of putting the question, and we hope that the House will see it as such. We hope and believe that the House of Commons will, to use Mr. DISRAELI'S words at an earlier period of the session, " rise to the occasion" before it, and show, by its determined manner and steadfast course, that it will settle Reform this session, and not be led astray by any dexterous contrivance, or dazzled by any splen did oratory, but press forward with might and main to attain the desired object, and realise the expectations of all true Reformers and real well wishers of their country. The Reform Bill of 1867 is at last in a definite shape before the House of Commons and the coun try, and iu spite of the censures of Mr. GLADSTONE, the criticisms of other speakers, and some weak points in the measure itself, we believe that Mr. ROEBUCK expressed the prevailing sentiment when he told the House that, with certain alterations in committee, they would have a very good bill. The main features of it are already familiar to the public, thanks to the meeting of Lord DERBY'S followers last week. They are a household suffrage in boroughs on payment of rates, householders having the power to qualify themselves for voting by taking the payment of the rates into their own hands. The payment of direct taxes—that is to say, of income tax or assessed taxes to the amount of twenty shillings per annum —is also to be a qualification ; and there is to be a savings bank franchise, a funded property fran chise (both of the value of £5O), and an educational franchise. In the counties we are to have a £l5 rating franchise, and the redistribution part of the scheme is the same as stated by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in introducing the Resolutions, being professedly only provisional in its character. The other noticeable part of the scheme is the admission of dual voting; that is to say, that a man who is a householder and pays his rates, and who also pays 20s. annually in direct taxation, may exercise both suffrages. Such are the main points of the measure as it was last evening unfolded to the house, and submitted to the consideration of the country ; and it remains to be seen what reception it will meet with. We have no hesitation in saying, notwithetand ing the alarm of certain honourable gentlemen, that the principle of household suffrage will be a popular one. Englishmen generally attach a good deal of importance to the position of a householder, and in every department of our constitution their influence is recognised and their assistance appealed to. They have votes for local government. They are called upon to deliberate upon ques tions of life and death. In every matter de manding some guarantee for respectability and sta bility the name of a householder is called for, and this not alone in matters affecting the legislation of the country, but in the ordinary transactions of every-day life. Why, then, should the house holder's privileges and responsibilities stop short at the point of Parliamentary representation ? The principle which admits him has a definite and com prehensible basis, and combines the best features of a Liberal and a Conservative policy ; and while it will no doubt add very largely to our borough constituencies, it will admit for the most part men of prudent and temperate character, who are not likely to be carried away by every fresh demagogue, nor eager for any political convulsion, so that it produce some temporary excitement. So far, then, as the doctrine of household suffrage is concerned, the Government has little reason to fear any strong opposition. Mr. GLADSTONE'S anxiety about the compound householders was somewhat unnecessary, and his suggestion that the enfran chisement should stop short before it reached them was a somewhat singular method of redressing their grievances. The condition of two years' residence can scarcelybe felt to be burdensome. At any rate if it should be, it can be modified through some term of residence which should be decided on as a necessary qualification, in order to secure the genuine house holding class. To the savings-bank franchise few persons can take exception, while the educational qualification we should like to see largely increased. The Chancellor of the Exchequer estimates the num ber to be enfranchised by it at 35,000, though it must always be remembered that such estimates are purely speculative. We should rather welcome an educational test that would admit as many tens of thousands, seeing that it precisely admits the edu cated men of all classes whom we wish to enfranchise. The dual voting is the most objectionable feature in the scheme, and so strongly was it objected to by the House that we have no question it will be promptly abandoned. There is no principle contained in it which should make the Government reluctant to lay it aside, and the general conviction of its mischievous and unsatis fae:,ory native was too plainly expressed to be mi - iaterpreted. The prevailing idea was that it would excite antagonism between classes, and create heartburnings and jealousies. It has been said, in opposition to this, that there need be no more jealousy felt by a man who has one vote against a man who has two than the man with no vote feels now against the voter with one suf frage. But this is not certain, and it gives an idea of privilege and favour which is likely to be unpopular. The question of bribery and corruption is alto gether laid aside for the present, the . Chancellor of the Exchequer declaring his intention of dealing with it in a separate bill. The redistribution scheme is to place 36 seats at the disposal of the Govern ment, which are to be divided among non-repre sented towns of large population and some of the larger counties.. The difficulties attending this part of the scheme would be much lightened by the very simple expedient of enlarging the number of the House of Commons. As for the counties the principle of a rating franchise was accepted by the House last year, so there is not much reason to anticipate any strong opposition to that part of the measure. On the whole, notwithstanding Mr. GLADSTONE'S attack, followed only too willingly by Lord CRAN BORNE and Mr. LOWE, the measure was favourably received. No one was probably sanguine enough to expect the introduction of a measure which should fully satisfy the requirements, the ob jections, and the prejudices of Whigs and Tories, Radicals and Independents, place-holders and place hunters, men who are dissatisfied with every proposal submitted to them, and men who holy with POPE that, " Whatever is, is right." It is enough for ultimate success that a measure be based on definite and constitutional principles, and acceptable to the common sense and public spirit of the country. The Bill of last night has at least the advantage of liberality to recommend it, being manifestly far more comprehensive, both in principle and practice, than a£sor £6 limit. In fact, its provisions were looked upon with evident doubt by many professing Liberals on account of this very comprehensiveness. We are not surprised to find so able and consistent a Reformer as Mr. ROEBUCK adopting a different course ; and his brief but trenchant words last night must have had great weight with the Liberal party. Suppose, he said, the bill was rejected, and the mi nority resigned, what was to come then ? Could hon. gentlemen opposite, who had failed in carry ing a £7 franchise, expect to carry a £6, after re jecting household suffrage? They would come to a dead lock, and no Reformßill would be passed at all. " Our plain and simple course is to discuss this bill upon the second reading—to read it a second time —to bring it into committee—make it what it can be made—if necessary, take it out of the hands of the Government ; but, at all events, let us pass the bill." Thus spoke the genuine and disinterested Reformer, sincerely anxious for the settlement of this great national question in a national spirit, and we cannot doubt that the house and the country will echo his sentiments. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Monday Evening. The Moniteur has nothing new in regard to foreign affairs, and devotes much space to a report of the proceedings of the criminal courts in France and Algeria during the year 1865. The general results prove a diminution of crime in that colony. The Minister of Justice (H. Baroche), in his report to the Emperor, claims for France more privileges for the accused and more equality before the law than is to be found in England. In its bulletin the Moniteur says that, in the absence of the King and Queen of Denmark from the kingdom, in consequence of melancholy family ircunistauces, the Prince Royal has been invested with the exercise of the sovereign power, in accord ance with the laws of the country. His Royal High ness took the usual oath ; and a law has been pre sented to the First Chamber to give sanction to this temporary change in the administration of the Go vernment. The Paris papers are of course chiefly filled with the reports of the discussion upon foreign affairs in the Legislative Body, but they nevertheless consider the affairs of the East as constituting the most im portant topic of the day. The Siecle remarks that whilst the English Ambassador recommends the de velopment of the Hatti-lioumayoun of 1856, the St. Petersburg Journal declares that what was suffi cient ten years ago is no longer so in the present day. This Hatti-lloumayoun, or Imperial decree, which is dated Feb. 18, 1866, is only the confirma tion of that of Gulhane, and of the laws of the Tan zimat, which gives to all Turkish subjects, without security for their ' tan in the preamble p d e is r t s i o n n c s ti a o u n d o p f ro c p las er s ty o . r T re h l e ig s io u n l of this decree says his only desire is the happiness of his subjects, who are all equal in his eyes. There seems to be something more than meets the ear in this Eastern question, for there is no doubt of the movement of an immense mass of Russian troops towards the south and west. A letter from Smyrna, dated the Bth inst., gives an account of a violent earthquake which took place in that city, which caused every house to shake, but without doing any injury to persons or property. The first shock lasted at least ten seconds, with oscillations from the north-west to the south-east. The first shock was succeeded instantly by a second, and a series of weaker but sensibly-felt shocks. Nothing so alarming in the shape of earthquakes has been experienced at Smyrna since the year 1845, and the earthquake of that period was not so violent. At the time of the first shock there was a heavy rain, and the clouds presented an appearance of fire, although the sun had set some hours previously. According to the opinion of men of science, this earthquake at Smyrna is to be considered as a sort of counter-balance to the agitation of the earth which led to the earthquake in the island of Alitylene, which has almost destroyed that city. Several other shocks of earthquake have been ex perienced at Alvaly and Aidin, which have caused great damage, and it is feared loss of life also. This morning there was a greater depth of snow in the country around Paris than during tho most severe period of the winter. There was a slight thaw during the day, with a little rain. Iu the afternoon the sun was seen at intervals, but upon the whole it has been a cheerless and miserable day as the most advanced misanthrope could dosire. Probably there will be frost again to night. Without venturing on the domain of London news, I think it right to inform you that a most lamentable and melancholy report is in circulation in usually well-informed residents of Paris, to the effect that the Princess of Wales has a tumour in the leg, which seems to threaten the necessity of amputation, the disease having rapidly and seriously increased. It is also reported that there are symp toms of milk fever. An Italian paper records a feat of Garibaldi in a new and rather blasphemous character. He is said to have baptised a child in the following words : " I baptise thee in the name of God and the Legisla tor Jesus. Be good ; defend the weak, and struggle against tyrants. Love thy fellow, and render thy self worthy of the name of brave which I give to thee. I call thee Chiassi." Chiassi was the name of a colonel who fell in the last campaign of the Tyrol. There was an exceedingly curious and interesting spectacle at Trocadero, near Passy, on Saturday. For months past operations have been in progress in this locality on the right bank of the Seine, hav ing for object to remove the mimic mountains there, and to form a beautiful plain to be devoted to a park, or .some other beauti ful place of public resort. Thousands upon thousands of tons of rock and earth have been re moved by labourers within a few months past, but Saturday last was fixed for some mining operations to complete the destruction more speedily and effectually. From 1,500 to 1,800 mines were ar ranged to explode on Saturday. The locality was beautifully ornamented with flags, and a tent was prepared for the Emperor and Empress. Within half an hour all these mines exploded. Over the tent, ornamented with flags, was an inscription, " The workmen of Paris to the Emperor and Em press." The first Emperor intended to have a palace built here for his son the King of Rome— and indeed the foundations were commenced ; but— " capricious turn of sportive Fortune's wheel," the spot is destined to augment the many beautiful pro menades which the Parisians now have for their recreation and enjoyment. The Emperor and Empress were as ever received with joyous bursts of acclamation and affection. So desirous was the Empress to witness the dangerous process of demo lition that her Majesty occupied a spot very near to which fell a fragment of rock, which she ordered to be preserved for her. A more agreeable offering was afterwards made to her Majesty, by a young girl, in the shape of a bouquet of flowers. In spite of the terrific weather plenty of violets and other spring flowers arc to be had. LITERILTURB. Ten Miles from Town. With Poems. By William Sawyer. Ono Vol. Pp. 152. W. Freeman.

Once in a way, however, a book answering the external appearance of " merely another of them"—more than justifies us, as in the present instance, by the exceptional charm of its contents, in notifying, as an incident in regard to current literature really worthy of notification, the pleasant fact of its publication. " Ten Miles from Town"—let us say it at once—appears to us to be not a hundred miles from Parnassus. Here, however, we must perforce take exception upon the instant to the author's own designation of his little volume upon its title-page. "Ten Miles from Town—[he calls it] With Poems"—as though the Ten Miles from Town (the sectional portion of the con tents so defined) were not Poems like the rest of the book I Now, it is precisely to this that we would direct our exception —Ten Miles from Town being as much Poems iu themselves as any other divisional part of the volume. Several of these poems have appeared already from time to time in one or other of the magazines—in the Cornhill, in Temple Bar, in London Society, in the Shilling Ma gazine. These, however, have not only been here collected together for the first time, but have been enriched with others not previously given to the public by their author—the reprints even having been subjected by him, as he intimates in hit prefatory note, to very careful revision. The labour thus devoted by the writer (evidently, with him, a labour of love), to the revising, extending, and generally improving and enhancing the value of the collection, as a whole, has not been thrown away —the result being eminently satisfactory. Mr. Sawyer's little book, in effect, is just in one word—charming. If all the other volumes of verse that come showering from the press, year after year, were only one-half as good, the task of taking note of them would be a pleasant task indeed. Perhaps it is the consciousness we have upon us of the contrast presented to view by the vast majority of them that enhances our sense of satisfaction, when welcoming effusions such as these, effusions that bear about them more of heart than of artifice. Their writer, though in himself wholly unknown to us— though merely, in our regard, but as a name upon a title-page—we cannot but feel certain has herein revealed himself quite truthfully to our re cognition (as among the number of his readers), as an observer of nature and a lover of his kind endowed with very keen perceptions of, and the tenderest sympathy for, all that is good and beautiful in a world that he thus contrives to show has been hitherto, for him, brimming over with both. We hope that, before much longer, he will, by some more ambitious adventure as a poetic aspirant, giro us occasion to welcome his reappearance. ANIHONY TROLLOPE'S Sixpenny Weekly Serial Story of " The Last Chronicle of Barset" is now half finished—the first volume having just been published by the Messrs. Smith, Elder, and Co. of Cornhill. Up to this time it has certainly made good its claim to be regarded as about the very best among all the numerous fictions penned by our popular novelist. At the close of volume one, our old friend (or enemy shall we call him ?) Adolphus Crosbie is left in the direst plight as to pecuniary difficulties. Apropos to which our author says sagaciously : " I know no more uncomfortable walking than that which falls to the lot of men who go into the City to look for money, and who find none. Of all the lost steps trodden by men, surely the steps lost after that fashion are the most melancholy. It is not only that they aro so vain, but that they are accompanied by so killing a sense of shame ! To wait about in clingy rooms, which look on to bare walls, and are approached through some Hook-court; or to keep appointments at a low coffee-house, to which try stings the money-lender will not trouble himself to come unless it pleases him ; to be civil, almost suppliant, to a cunning knave whom the borrower loathes; to bo refused thrice, and then cheated with his eyes open on the fourth attempt ; to submit himself to vulgarity of the foulest kind, and to have to seem to like it ; to be badgered, reviled, and at last accused of want of honesty by the most fraudulent of mankind ; and at the same time to be clearly conscious of the ruin that is coining —this is the fate of him who goes into the City to find money, not knowing where it is to be found!" The upshot of the whole plot we expect will be this —that Johnny Eames will be the Deus ex Machina clearing among all the difficulties—comiog to Adolphus Crosbie's relief at the last gasp, and de monstrating the innocence of Mr. Crawley from the charge of petty felony brought against him, effecting this by the evidence obtained by Johnny from the Arabins—Lily Dale of course rewarding all this by giving her hand at last to Johnny Eames as her chosen husband. THE DAY.—Another New Penny Morning con temporary, under the above title, has this day, March 19, made its first appearance. Constitu tional Liberalism—" not to put too fine a point upon it "—is its avowed policy. Judging of its character from a single number we should be dis posed to augur very favourably for its chances of success. For, The Day has not only dawned 4 , true to time," according to its announce ment, but in doing so has made, as it seems to us, a very brilliant first appearance. The Parlia mentary reports are morn than simply credit able ; they are remarkable for their accuracy and their copiousness. It is only, perhaps, in the natural course of things, however, it may be said, that The Sun should shine upon The Day when The Day makes its first appearance. Exhibition of Modern Pictures. A very interesting exhibition of modern pictures of the highest class, Eng and foreign, is now open at M'Lean's new gallery, 7, Haymarket. The paintings forming the colle3t of came from the hands of such I:ll.ities as W. P. Frith, Stanfield, P. Calderon, T. Creswick, D. Roberts, Samuel T. S. C,: .; 2r. Stone, E. W. Cooke, Rosa Bonheur, and many others, and presents to the eye of the connoisseur a sig v: unexampled interest. There are three fine contriuutions from Mr. Stan field, " Tintagio Castle" forming one c= the leading attractions of the exhibition. " At tempted Escape of Mary Queen of Scots ;,:om Loch leven Castle;' an admirable reproduction of Frith's great picture, " The Derby Day ;" Rosa Bonheur's " Mountain Sheep," " The Order of Release" by Millais, Frith's " Stage Coach," the joint produc tion of Roberts and Sant, "Emmaus," " The Girl I left behind me" by Luard, and upwards of seventy others, make up an exhibition of rare interest. The majority of the pictures have obtained a world-wide celebrity, and the gratification of seeing all collected and admirably placed in the new gallery is one that will not be lost sight of by all who love fine pictures, which are, as Ugo Foscolo has well said, the chickweed to the gilded cage, and make up for the want of many other enjoyments to those whose life is mostly passed amidst the smoke and din, the bustle and noise of an overcrowded city.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A CANDID THlEF.—Joseph Parker, an artful looking young fellow, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with having in his possession a shawl, supposed to be stolen. Police-constable Groves, 83 F, deposed to seeing the prisoner running through Monmouth-court with a ehawl (produced) under his arm, and on stopping him, and asking him where he got it from he at first said it belonged to his mother, and then said he picked it up. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Do you wish to say anything, prisoner ? The Prisoner—The fact is this—l saw the shawl fall off the back of a young woman, who was drunk, and I picked it up, and ran off with it. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Well, that is candid, at all events. I shall remand you for a few days, to give the police an opportunity of finding the owner of the shawl. THAMES. AUDACIOUS ROBBERY.—George Walker, a deter mined -looking fellow, about 20 years of age, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with the following daring robbery : Mr. Alfred Watts, manager t 3 Mr. Henry Watts, boot and shoemaker, 64, Church-lane, Whitechapel, stated that between half-past four and five o'clock yesterday afternoon he was standing in the parlour behind the shop and saw the prisoner enter the shop and pull down four seal skins, and with so much force that he dragged the nail away to which they were made fast. The prisoner rushed out of the shop with the skins. Ho followed him directly and was soon close upon. the prisoner, who re lieved himself of the weight of the skins by throwing them down, and ran to the end of Church lane, where he crossed the road. The prisoner, finding he could not escape, made an attempt to strike him, but he parried the blow and struck the prisoner. The four skins were worth £3 10s. He produced one of them of large size, and said the others were similar. P. W. Dunaway, a detective police sergeant, said he saw the prisoner and the prosecutor engaged in a struggle. He seized the prisoner, who said " You need not hold me so tight. I never give any trouble to a police eonstable when he once has hold of me." He replied—" I hope you will not give me any trouble for I am not prepared for you, but I don't mean to let you go." H e was sorry to say that Mr. Watts had been repeatedly robbed in a similar manner. The Prisoner—Did you not see the gentleman hit rno ? Dunaway—No, I did not, indeed. The prisoner mado no defence, and Mr. Pagel committed him for trial. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. (This Day.) The Market opens with a very healthy tone Sales probably 8,000 or 10,000 bales.

Last evening a new entertainment, written by Mr. Robertson, for Mr. and Mrs. German Reed, Mr. John Parry, and Miss Susan Galton, entitled " A Dream in Venice," was produced hero and met with success. The idea is very cleverly worked out, the merriment being produced by Mr. German Reed being prevailed upon by Mr. John Parry to take some Indian hemp pills which the latter has compounded prior to a:trip to Venice. As soon as the capital is reached the pills take effect on Mr. Reed, and a dream ensues, in which Mrs. Reed, Miss Galton, and Mr. Parry move as the Bride of the Adriatic, the Spirit of Venice, and the Doge. A burlesque opera is given ; the music consistsprinci pally of popular, well-known airs, wedded to very comical words. The plot, of course, teams with bravos of the Monk Lewis stamp, lovers, gondolas, and assignations, all of which are delightfully jumbled up, and produced a very laughable enter taiumeut, which, however, is heightened by the characters being 200 years in advance. The latter idea gives scope for all sorts of whimsicalities, and the clever quartette party make the most of them. The finale to the air of " Beautiful Venice" brought down the curtain with loud applause. The scenery of the entertainment is exceedingly beautiful and elaborate ; the view in Venice, with the columns of the Lion at St. Mark's, the Rialto, &c., is one of Mr. Telbin's charming productions, which, of itself, formsan exhibition of unrivalled beauty; the appoint ments are all carried out with the greatest taste and splendour, and doubtless Mrs. German Reed will have to swallow Mr. John Parry's pills nightly for months to come. The Loss of the Cave• The following admirably humourous sketch Ice take from the Owl: An inquiry into the loss of this vessel was held on Monday last by an Owl and two nautical asses sors. The case excited much interest from the fact that the vessel was engaged in the first attempt made to settle the new colony of Adullam, which has been lately founded near Botany Bay. Robert Lowe deposed that he was chief officer of the Cave. Had helped to build the vessel ; in fact had laid the keel himself two or three years ago, though she was only launched last year. She was a splendid-looking craft, made an enormous number of knots an hour, and could turn in her own length. She was intended to carry a large number of emigrants, but passengers did not come forward as readily as had been expected, and many who had taken their passage refused to go at the last moment. She left port, however, and had been at sea ever since, up to the day she foundered. Obser vations were taken in the usual manner, but they were not satisfactory, in consequence of the clouded state of the horizon, and they relied chiefly on the Tory log and dead reckoning. The vessel encoun tered adverse trade- winds and currents, and on seve ral occasions was run into and seriously damaged by the craft called "Demonstrations." Thought that the cause of her foundering. When he noticed that sho was settling down took a boat, but could not induce anybody to go with him. Was tossed about a good deal, but soon fell in with " The Tory" hulk, which offered to take him on board, but he declined, think ing her very unsafe, and was finally towed into port by " The Liberal." Captain GROSVENOR said he had done his best to save the vessel. He had intended all along to sail in company with, or at any rate in the track of , " The Liberal," but she outsailed him, and so he bore up and ran free. Attributed the accident to the presence of dry rot, a great deal of which wa s talked at his dinners. Thought his crew were badly composed. Lowe could not even take a bearing an d was unreliable, while Laing did more harm tha n good. Considered that he now belonged to " Th e Liberal." FRANCIS ELCHO said he was second mate. At tributed the loss of the ship to bad seamanship. Th e crew were a shady lot—mostly Jumpers, and some of them did not know a gentleman from a handspike. The vessel went to pieces very suddenly, and lie found himself struggling in the water, but saved himself on a plank thrown to him by some miner fellows from " The Liberal." S. LAING said he was the ship's cooper, and had hoped to be made super-cargo. The captai n had refused him a character, and he was not sorry the ship did go down. Had since got remunerative employment on a railway, but would go to sea aga ill under Captain Gladstone if he could get made a petty officer. A. CLINTON had heard it said that the ship would neither wear nor stay, and though he did not wear them himself, believed they were good for the figur e ' and therefore for the figure-head. Supposed that the catastrophe had arisen from want of knowing Ovi to raise the wind. F. DOULTON was one of the crew. Knew notbil about the object of the voyage, and could not tel why he sailed in the vessel, except that Mr. We st ( i ininster had cashed his advance-note ; but lie had been allowed to mess with the officers, and was quit: contented. Had got good employment, and me° to give up seafaring altogether. The Court, after a short deliberation, came to thel conclusion that the loss of the ship was oc casioned by faults in her construction ; but rep rimanue r Captain Grosvenor and the chief mate , Lowe, fo leaving port at all in so unseaworthy a vessel. Sir Roderick Murchison having been furnished by Lord Stanley with the des p atches of Dr. Seward, the e British political resi dent at Zanzibar, as well as with mer detailed letters of Dr. Kirk, says he can now scarcely elieg to the hope that Dr. Livingstone is still alive. By the lat est intelligence from Zanzibar, dated the 7th of January, ' 4 " ° learn that Drs. Seward and Kirk had sailed in her Ma] ship Wasp for Quiloa to make inquiries and obtain all further evidence. A RTISTI C FURNITURE.
