THAMES. Henry Allen, alias Jacobs, a young Creole, was charged with having obtained money from several persons under the pretence that he brought them from America boxes on which there were duck charges to pay. The prisoner courted the daughter of one of his dupes, and was ac cepted. Preparations were made for the wedding, And money was freely given to the prisoner, who suddenly decamped. The girl this morning threatened to tear his eyes out for his perfidy. The prisoner has served with the British army in Canada, and has been some time in this coun try, including three years' penal servitude, and twice for three months as a rogue and vagabond. Hs was committed for trial. THE UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE. (THIS DAY.) The crew were at work early this morning owing to the state of the tide. The Oxford men were in advance of the sister University, and embarked on board Mr. Willans's steam yacht, in which they were conveyed to Mort lake, when it was decided that they should row from Barnes to Putney on the ebb. Mr. Willan, assisted by Timms, the clerk and waterman, kindly took their boat up, and was steered .by Mr. Hall. The work down was done in good style, averaging about 35 or 36 strokes per minute. The " catch " of the water in the beginning of the strokes was for the most part perfect, and the swing good, but there was litCe faults to correct in some of the crew. There is force in their rowing, and the men can afford to bear plenty of reasonable work between now and the day of the race. The stroke oar is very fine, but it is hardly necessary to say anything in favour of Mr. Darbishire, who rowed the principal oar in the gallant race with the Harvard last year. Unt!l his accession to the Oxford crew, a fornight ago, the hopes of their rivals were very high., The Cambridge crew got into their boat just before 11 this mining, and were accompanied by Mr. Morrison in Mr. Bligh's steam yacht. They rowed up to the Crab Tree against the ebb, starting slowly and rowing with much care. Getting more used to their work as they proceeded onward, and more habited to the boat, they began to clear their oars well, and in some parts of their practice were rowing at 37 or 38 strokes per minute, and making their boat travel very fast. In this, as in the other crew, there is room for improvement.' An article in the Lally News on tne oxford crew says that though the changes have been numerous the crew are now as good as could be expected under the circum stances. Nevertheless, the eight is far from first-class. Taken as a whole, the Oxford men are physically inferior to those of Cambridge. No. 2 is very deficient. " That he works well and conscientiously Is undeniable, but he has an awkward and ungainly action that completely spoils the appearance of the boat, in addition to which he at times clips his stroke badly. No. (3, also seems scarcely equal to his place, and, though a good worker and capable, as all who saw him last year at Henley will admit, of setting a fine dashing stroke, ad. mirably suited to a short course, is evidently not at home be hind Mr Darbishire. He would have been better placed, and doubtless, would have shewed to greater ad, vantage at the bow on No, 2 thwart ; but I can readi l y imagine that the president might have searched the whole univer sity in vain to find an adequate substitute at No. 6 for Mr. Yarborough. Edwards-Moss (No. 4), the late cap tain of the boats at Eton, hardly does credit to Mr. Warre's coaching, as he rows with a shockingly round 'pack —as bad as any North country professional ; but, on the other hand, he has a long, powerful reach, makes good use of his stretcher, and works splendidly. Both 5 (Payne) and 3 (Baker) are also strong, useful oars, but somewhat rough and unfinished, though Baker, from all accounts, has vastly improved since he was transferred from the middle of the boat to his present seat. Benson, though hardly up to his old form perhaps, makes a capital No. 7, and being accustomed to row behind Darbi shire, in his college eight, could scarcely be better posted—though in default of Darbishire he would have figured very creditably at the No. 8 thwart-- his old place in the Eton Eight. Mirehouse as bow is everything that could be desired, and wants only a few pounds additional weight to be a model 'Varsity oar. His style and form are faultless, and he sits up to his work ' marks the beginning' in a fashion that is a real treat is witness. -The only wonder is that his merits should have been so long overlooked. As for Darbishire, he is, what he always was, the perfection of a 'Varsity stroke oar." THE NEW STRIKE AT ()RE U SUT a - In addition to the particulars of the new strike at Creusot supplied by the telegraph, the Figaro has the following :—On Monday morning the miners went down as usual to their work in the pits, but at about eleven o'clock three individuals notorious as extreme intriguers, descended the St. Paul pit and informed the workmen that the Re public had been proclaimed at Paris. That was enough to bring the men out of the pit, as well as out of St. Peter's pit. The men in the Chaptal and Moineaux mines, however, re. fused to knock off. In the evening, at six o'clock, only half the men of the night shift went down to their work. In reply to the remonstrances of the overlookers and buttys, the men on strike said. "As the Republic is pro claimed, there is no necessity for us to work." On Tues day morning four-fifths of the men of the St. Peter and St. Paul pits failed to turn up at the usual hour,. while a band of some fifty or sixty men put out the engine fires, thereby stopping the pumps and rendering all work in the mines impossible. The same band proceeded to other pits, and by the same means.reduced thefil to inactivity. They then marched to the forges and workshops, but were re• pulsed by the workmen there, who refused to knock off. The affair is thus a serious one, ' but the motives for it are so strange and absurd that it cannot last. It is, however, to be feared that much mischief may be done in the mean time. The sous-prefet and the procureur imperial sent off for troops on the first alarm, which were immediately dis patched to the scene of the disturbance. On Tuesday night M. Schneider was informed of thestrike whilst in the Corp s Legislatif. When he left the house he had an interview with the Emperor, and took a special train to Creusot, where he arrived yesterday morning. This is not a strike bat an insurrection. The movement is entirely political, and has not even the pretence of being a protest against the management or regulations of the mines. The Grelot (a non-political journal of Creusot) propheti cally observed on the 19th instant :—" This districts gets on well, and something will be made of it. Every day are sold 30 Rappels, 50Rereils, and 150 Mairseillaise. The soil is prepared, the seed is good, a little sunshine only is now wanted, and then let the mines look to it !" I ADVERTISEMENT.

THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 2,5, 1870. SHARE LIST. ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS. THURSDAY. RAILWAYS-ORDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS. A meeting of the fellows and members of the Royal College of Surgeons of England was held to-day in Lincoln's Inn Fields, to discuss and con sider the present position of the college with respect to proposed legislation, and the forma tion of a single examining board for each division of the United Kingdom. E. Cock, Esq., the President of the College, was in the chair. Mr. MORRIS, of Spalding, moved—" That, in the opinion of this meeting, it is highly desirable that a single examining and licensing board should be established in each division of the United Kingdom." He had no doubt that if the resolution were passed it would have a beneficial effect. (Hear, hear). Dr. CARR, of Blackheath, seconded the resolution, which he believed would have a salutary effect. Dr. CRISP condemned the resolution, unless the board were representative. Mr. SMITH proposed, as an amendment, that the words " each division of " should be left out. Dr. ERASMUS WILSON seconded the amendment. Mr. T. CROSBY and Mr. BAXTER LANGLEY were in favour of the resolution, which was carried without the amendment. Dr. MUNREALY, of Leeds, moved that "in the opinion of this meeting the establishment and regulation of the single examining board should not be left in the hands of the existing medical corporations." Mr. CLARKE condemned the system of bringing for ward the ses elution in this way, as the proceedings he said, emanated from a clique. He objected to their affairs being handed over to the State. Mr. HARRISON moved that the word " not " be left out of Mr. Munrealy's resolution. Mr. GANT seconded the amendment, and the meeting was adjourned, after a discussion, to this day month. THE DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR SERVICE. THURSDAY. The select committee met this afternoon, *e Right Hon. E. P. Bouverie in the chair. Sir Henry Elliot, K.C.8., British Ambassador at Con stantinople, said " The position of high members of the diplomated service with regard to leave was not so good as that of inferior officers. He was in favour of a slight examination on entry, and a severe one to test capabili ties •of secretaries for higher posts. He agreed that there was a block in the service. The system of seniority pushed forward some who had better, for the good of the service, remain where they were. Sir H. Elliott having detailed the mode of life in the British Embassy at Constantinople, said he was opposed to competitive examination, because an attache, on arriving at his mission, must be introduced to be best society at once, and he (Sir H. Elliott) confessed that he would not like to in troduce any gentleman into select society abroad of whom he knew nothing but that he had passed a competitive examination. With regard to any means of relieving the block in the service, he thought it might do good to grant the diplomatic service consular posts. The diplomatic had much more consular business to perform than the consular had of diplomatic. If he were simply Minister at Constantinople, instead of Ambassador, he was convinced he should have a great deal of influence. He was aware that the Russian Mission at that place cost much less than ours last year. He knew very well that the Russian Mission had a fine house there, and last year the Minister spent £3,000 on it. The committee then adjourned. TIIE ALLEGED MURDER ON WESTMINSTER BRIDGE. THURSDAY. The inquest on the body of Louisa 0 vany, with whose murder Charles Nobbs, a porter at the India Office, stands charged, was resumed this afternoon, at Lambeth, before Mr. Carter, the Surrey Coroner. A superintendent of police informed the Coroner that a negro had attended at the police station and given evidence against Nobbs, but that he had since absconded, and they could not find him. It was now proved by P.C. 44 L that Nobbs was running across the Bridge immediately after the woman got into the water. This witness saw the deceased place her knee against the parapet of the bridge, just before, but he could not say whether sh e was lift e d of jumped over. A porter named Fluester proved seeing the deceased lift one leg on to the parapet of the bridge, and thought she intended to throw herself over. Nobbs was near her, and seeing that he made no effort to save her, witness thought she was joking. He then distinctly saw her throw herself over the parapet, and as she reached the water he heard her scream. Hobbs said to witness, " I could not save her." Evidence 'Fag given that deceased was very excitable, and often drunk, and that on all such occasions Nobb was very kind to her. The jury returned %verdict oil" Suicide while of un sound mind." MISS LYDIA THOMPSON IN THE DIVORCE COURT. THURSD AYE In the Divorce Court this afternoon, the cause of Wat kins v. Watkins, which was a wife's p3tition for a disso lution of her marriage, was tried. The petitioner, a stylishly dressed woman, said she was possessed of a large amount of property, and at the time of her marriage was a widow. After that event, she settled £3OO a year on her husband, who treated her with the greatest cruelty, striking and kicking her. Witness found that he was visiting a Mrs. Douglas, and she was one night at the Strand Theatre when she saw one of the actresses wearing some of her jewellery. She complained to her husband, and he got her the ring back from Miss Thompson. Mr. Waters said he was valet to the respondent: He knew Miss Lydia Thompson. He had known her come to the house where the respondent was living. She would come at eleven or twelve at night after the theatre, and stay there till one o'clock, or later. When they were there he had heard sounds that raised his suspicions. He was to have gone with Mr. Watkins, but did not. He believed, but was not sure that his master was going there with Lydia Thompson. Witness left at a moment's notice, as his master said he would be a spy on him. At that time Miss Thompson lived at 28, Maddox-street, and witness had sent letters there at Mr. Watkin's directions. Remembered when Mrs. Watkin's dress was soiled the respondent ordered a cab. On one or two occasions had found woman's hair, which he thought Lydia Thompson's, on his master's bed. Had sent letters to Miss Thompson at the theatre. Mary Ann Morgan, a workwomen at Madame Guise, said that in June or July 1868, she was sent on a message and passed down Maddox-street. Saw Mr. Watkins come out of a house with a lady and they went to Kuhn's restaurant, in Regent-street. Witness told Madame Guise and she with Mrs. Watkins waited till Mr. Watkins came out of the restaurant, and he went to the same house he had left. • Mary Ann Morton, formerly a servant, with a lady named Douglas. Remembered the respondent coming in April, 1869. He slept with Mrs. Dou g lass. Had seen him there on other occasions. Dr. Deane said he could not resist the evidence. Decree nisi with costs ; Lord Penzance observing that the evidence of adultery with Miss Thompson was in complete, but with regard to Mrs. Douglas the reverse was the case. DEATH OF SIR WILLLIAIt WILLIAMS. Sir William Williams, Bart, died yesterday morning, at his seat at Tregullow, Cornwall, aged seventy-nine. He was extensively engaged in the tin, copper, coal, and timber trades, and was a very large adventurer in Cornish and Welsh mines. The late baronet, whe was created in 1866, just after Lord Derby's Government came into office, is succeeded by his eldest son, Frederick Martin, who was born in 1830, and was returned as the Conservative mem ber for Truro, in February, 1865, when he defeated Cap tain Vivian (his present colleague) on the the elevation of Mr. Montague Smith to the bench. KIIKLUX IN WEST VIRGINIA.—An organisea band of armed Kuklux recently . appeared in Charleston, the future capital of West Virginia, and released all the prisoners in the jail, threatening the jailer with death if he resisted. The o rganisation is said to be extensive, and the civil authorities are powerless. The governor intends to call upon the general Government for military aid to suppress this lawlessness. THE SPANISH MINISTRY. The Inzparcial, Spanish paper of the 21st inst., says, that general Prim, and his colleagues, have resolved upon inaugurating a new and energetic policy. Accepting the explanations of the Liberal:union, and the professions of sympathy for the revolution, the Ministry will boldly face the several political problems of the day. All the drafts of measures already in preparation, will be at once submitted to the Cortes, which will approve their Radical spirit. In all that concerns the exeeutive power, the Government will enforce the laws. It reckons on the liberality and intelligence of the provincial authorities to secure the protection of individual rights, and a general respect for the law, what ever causes may tend to diminish the prestige of authority. The Discussion says that the Duke of Montpensier has consulted the most eminent lawyers of Madrid as to the coursese should pursue in the case originating in Prince Henry death.

The Speaker took the chair at two o'clock. NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. GLYN a new writ was ordered to .ssue for the election of a member for Newark. NORTH-EASTERN RAILWAY (CONSOLIDATION OF STOCK) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. WIMBLEDON COMMON. Sir CHARLES DILKE asked the Secretary to the Trea sury whether it was the intention of the Commissioners of Woods, Forests, and Land Revenues to sell to Lord Spencer the rights which the Crown enjoyed over the commons within the manor of Wimbledon, in respect of an enfranchised copyhold farm of 40 acres, which rights were at present the chief obstacle to the proposed conver sion of 140 acres of Wimbledon Common into a sewage Mr. STANSFIELD said that no such application had been made to the Government. FOREIGN LOANS. Mr. SINCLAIR AYTOUN asked the Secretary to the Treasury why the return of "Foreign and Colonial Guaranteed Loans," ordered on the 30th July last, had not yet been placed upon the table. Mr. STANSFIELD said the delay had been occasioned by correspondence having to take place with persons abroad, but the papers could be very shortly placed upon the table. RUGBY SCHOOL. In reply to an appeal from Sir S. Northcote, Mr. BRAND said he was quite willing to postpone bring ing. forward his motion, so as to allow the Public School Commissioners an opportunity of more fully considering the objections which had been taken to the statutes with regard to the governing body of Rugby, provided he had an assurance froth the Government that he should have an opportunity of renewing the motion in the event of no satisfactory settlement being arrived at by the Public School Commissioners. Mr. FORSTER said a full opportunity would be given to the right hon. gentleman to proceed if he should think it necessary to do so. PUNISHING CHILDREN. Mr. GRAHAM asked the Secretary of State for the Home D3partment, whether his attention had been called to the ease of Alexander Gillespie, a boy of ten years of age, who had been committed as a vagrant to the Rottenrow Indus trial School, Glasgow, although innocent of any crime, and being at the time resident in the home of his parents ; whether it had been brought to his notice that such com mittal took place summarily, and without his parents being even aware that the child was in the hands of the police ; and whether he would not, under the circumstances, exer cise the power conferred upon him by the Industrial Schools Act, and order the restoration of the boy to his parents, who, although in humble circumstances, are respectable persons, and able and willing to maintain and educate him ? Mr. BRUCE said the hon. member had been altogether misinformed. The boy was taken up on a charge of being about to commit a robbery, and his parents were made acquainted with the circumstances, and told to attend at the police -court. They did not, and the boy pleaded guilty,and was without being convicted sent, under the 15th Soction of the Industrial Schools Act to a reforma tory. The magistrate had the power to alter the sen tences upon proper representation being made to him. PEACE PRESERVATION (IRELAND) BILL. The House then went into committee on the bill. The consideration of the measure was resumed on Clause 27, the subject before the chair being whether the word " seditious " should be left out of the clause which gave the power of suppressing newspapers publishing treason able or seditious matter. Mr. MOORE objected altogether to the clause, and re ferring to what took place last night, he said he was quite certain the opinion of the minority last night represented the feelings of millions in Ireland, whose feelings it would be dangerous to despise. All other parts of the bill than those under discussion he looked upon as pretences, and the enactment to protect lives he thought merely a stalking horse. Before the Government called upon the House to pass such a clause as that now under discussion they ought to shew that the press was in collusion with those who were acting in defiance of the law. The National press only expressed the feelings of the National party in Ireland, and he should most strenu ously object to have that party associated with murderers and robbers. The SOLICITOR GENERAL for IRELAND defended the clause. The House last night had decided that the word " treasonable " should remain, and now they were engaged in considering whether the word seditious should remain in the clause, he thought it absolutely necessary that it should. In fact he looked upon it as of more importance than the word " treasonable," and he would rather leave that out than omit the word "seditious." It would give the Government the power of dealing with a certain class of offences ; but that power, he could assure the House, would never be exercised unless the Government were called upon to do so. The hon. and learned gentleman then read extracts from a certain Irish newspaper to shew exactly the sort of productions the clause would affect. Mr. MUNTZ said he objected to clauses, and, in fact, to all bills like the present ; but it appeared to be necessary for the protection of life and property, which was looked upon by all as the first duty of Parliament. He did not like bills that were said to be merely tempo rary, as actual experience had shewn that where a bill had been passed merely for the year, it had been renewed again and again until it became, in effect, a per manent measure. He did not think much of the provision that the bill was only for the year; he was afraid he should see it renewed again and again, and that it would become a model bill for England. Mr. COGAN confessed that he would not take upon him self to give a definition of sedition, and so far as he could he would endeavour to prevent the' arrival of the day when it would be left to an individual minister, no matter how able he might be, to decide what sedition was. He believed that if the clause were adopted without the word " sedition," it would enable the Government to deal promptly and effectually with writings of a treasonable nature, or which incited to murder, or the committing of felony. He regretted that the exceptional circumstances of Ireland required such a clause, but he thought they ought not to give the Government greater powers with reference to the press. Mr. MayaHoN said it was clear that if the bill passed as it stood, the Government would really seize property in Ireland for acts which were not offences against the existing law, He thought the Government should define what sedition was, inasmuch as the Solicitor-General had said that they would have no difficulty in the matter. Mr. W. JOHNSTON supported the amendment. Lord ELCHO thought the powers sought by the Govern ment were not only excessive, but such as no Government in any coercive bill had ever asked for before. The argu ment against the exercise of the power was that it was a question involving the liberty of the Press, but he would rather call it an interference with the licence of the Press. Although the powers were excessive, yet the responsi bility rested upon the Government ; and if they had found the present law inefficient, he was not prepared to vote astainst the bill. After a long discussion, Mr. C. FORTESCUE said the Government proposed to re move the words "having a tendency to promote " sedition from the next clause; and, also, they were quite willing to allow other alterations to be made, as they proposed that, bofore the Government proceeded to put the law iu force, they should give the paper about to be proceeded against one warning. The House divided on tho question that the words " or sedition" stand part of the clause. Ayes Noes Majority 977 CLEFT SITTING.) LONDON GAZETTE—This Evening, INDIA OFFICE, MARCH 21.

THE FUNDING BILL IN AMERICA.—The Funding Bill has been passed in the Senate at Washington, after a prolonged debate. Several amendments to it were pro posed, one of which extended the time in which the four and a half bonds should be paid from thirty to forty years, while another authorised the organisation of banks on a capital of $50,000, instead of $lOO,OOO. Both these amend ments were accepted, but all others refused, and the bill was carried by a vote of 32 to 10. A delegation of bankers bad a conference with the Secretary of the Treasury before the bill was finally carried, and proposed a Change in it which should not compel them to exchange their present bonds at a lower rate of interest. They did not, however. obtain much encouragement from i3outwell.
