They began hustling him, and the prisoner made a snatch at his gold chain, to which his silver watch was attached, and obtained posses sion of his watch, carrying it away with part of his chain, which was broken in three pieces. The pri soner fled with the watch and he attempted to fol low him. One of the gang stopped him, and he threw his arm out and struck him heavily in the fac.3. The fellow was thrown, and he continued hi, pursuit of the prisoner and called oat " Stop thief." Ile missed the prisoner oil at once, and was looking about. for him when a lady said there 'he is, and pointed to a fore court in front of a house where the prisoner was attempting to conceal himsif. The prisoner ran away again, and he pressed him closely until he was stoppel. Th, witness then identified his watch and chain, which he valued at S guineas. llenry Hughes, police sergeant, No. 30 K, said that at 10 minutes pa-it, 12 lait night he saw the prisoner running at full speed and follow° I him. lle lost sight of him, and a lady sail here he is. The prisoner emerged from a fore court and ran Charlotte-street, Whitechapel, where he overtook him and captured him. On the way to the station house the prisoner said, " I'll tell you where the watch is ; you will find it within the railings of St. Philip's Church." He locked up the prisoner, and returned to St. Philip's Church, at the back of the London Hospital, which the prisoner passed in his flight. He climbed over the railings, and found the prosecutor's watch and chain in, the church yard. The prisoner made no defence, and he was re manded for a week. It was stated that his confe derates were known, and the police expected to have them shortly in custody. THE GREAZ FORGERIES ON THE LEEDS BANK. Yesterday, Mr. Thomas Edgeley, a merchant in Sermon-lane, City, who stands eharged with forg ing bills of exchange in the name of the Maydan , - peck Forest Company, so called, amounting to £lOB,OOO and upwards, with intent to defraud the Leeds Banking Company, surrendered to his recog nisances in £4,000 to answer the charge before the Lord Mayor at the justice room of the Mansion house, and also the charge of conspiring with others not in custody to defraud the same bank. It may be recollected that a few days ago the defendant, for whose apprehension a warrant had been out since the middle of April last, voluntarily surren dered himself at the Bow-lane police station in the city to answer any charge that might be made against him, and that he underwent an examination at the justice-room on the following day, when some formal evidence was given, and was remanded until yesterday. Mr. Poland again conducted the prosecution ; and Mr. Sleigh, as before, defended the prisoner. Mr. Poland now stated the course he intended to pursue, and read an agreement, dated Jan. 8, 1864, which was recently found among the papers of Alfred Teale, lately a bankrupt, in reference to the Maydampeck Forest Company. The agreement purported to be made between Alfred Teale, of Leeds, manufacturer, and Thomas Edgeley, of the city of London, merchant. It recited that Jacob Van Cleeff, late of Paris, and then of Maydampeck, in Servia, stood indebted to Teale and Edgeley and their partners in large sums of money for goods sold and delivered, and for moneys advanced and for interest and commission on the same, and it was agreed that Edgeley should proceed to Servia and obtain by way of security an assign ment of Van Cleeff's interest in a concession of the forest and in a sum of £2,500 deposit money in the hands of Messrs. Mullion and Co. That assignment, it was recited, was only executed on the 27th of March, 1863, and had since been held for the mutual benefit of Teak and Edgeley. Van Cleef having become a bankrupt in Paris, Teale and Edgeley had agreed to endeavour to obtain from the Servian Government the concession direct, and to prosecute the exploration of the forest. For that purpose, and to continue the works without in terruption, it was agreed to mist; the necessary funds by draughts of A. Tetale'and Co. on Thomas Edgeley and Co., at six months, and to remit the proceeds to the manager, Mr. Dinelli, to pay for all purposes of the business as required. Under the direction of Thomas Edgeley ships were to be chartered to bring the timber to this country, or to any other part which offered greater encouragement, and it was arranged that the proceeds, after deducting freight and all charges and commissions, were to be paid over to the Leeds Banking Company in a separate account, and to be applied in the first instance to the due payment of the draughts of Teale and Co. on Thos. Edgeley and Co., and next to the reduction pro rata of the debts due to Teale and Co. and Edgeley and Co., and other expenses connected with the forest. The agreement, of which that was the sub stance, was signed " Thomas Edgeley and Co."' and "Alfr Teale." John Grant, who had been a clerk and then a partner of the defendant at one • time, was called and proved that the agreement was signed by the defendant and by Alfred Teale. It was in witness's handwriting, with the exception of a trifling alteration by Edgeley, and witness made several copies of it. After that agreement was signed witness opened an account in the ledger of Edgeley and Co. It was healed " Maydampeck Forest Com pany. Joint Account. T. Edgeley and Co. and A. Teale and C 0.," and witness kept the account. The first entry, which bore date the same day as the agreement, referred to an acceptance done July 11, of £966 45., and it represented a bill drawn by A. Teale and Co., on either Edgeley and Co. or Watts and Co. There were various other entries down to Aug. 24, when a Renewal Joint Account was begun and extended from July 4 to Aug. 24. That had re ference to bills drawn to take up acceptance on the original transactions. There were on the other side various entries of cash received from Teale. That was, in fact, a joint account of transactions between Edgeley and Co. and Teale and Co., and ought to have been kept privately. The gross amount re ceived by way of discount on those bills was over £30,000 in round numbers on the two accoants. The sums forwarded to Servia were stated in a se parate ledger. They were remitted to a banker there. To the best of his belief, over £ll,OOO was sent to one Frolich, a banker in Servia, as the pro duce of bills discoiinted for the Forest Company by the Leeds Bank. Witness heard of Van Cleeff's bankruptcy. That was in 1863, to the best of his belief Edgeley and Co. were in the habit of receiving with goods, and crediting vancieeff hi bills from Van Cleeff , some of the m b e i n g e ndorsed by Edgeley and Co., W atts and Co.,.and Teale and Co., and the times o f their bec oming due were entered in the bill book . Th ere was an accou nt ke n p i t Vandweibthitinngertain Cleeffbills .lie handwriting. Edgeley and Co. were iu the habit of taking up Van Cleeff's bills, to which they or Watts and Co. were liable. Ile could not say what amount of Van Cleeff 's bills was taken up after the latter became bankrupt. lle took them up at various notaries, and went early in the morning to avoid protesting, if possible. Before they were presented they were taken up. As certain bills became due others of the Maydampeck Forest Company were sub stituted in their place, signed in the first instance by Dinelli, the then manager of the Forest, and in the next by Devilliers, who succeeded him. Mr. Edge ley kept letter-books taken by a press, and witness last saw them in October last. Those books could not now be found. There was a ledger with a lock to it, which was also now missing. The signature of Devillers to the Maydampeck Forest bills was an imitation by the defendant of the handwriting of Devillers. On one occasion he saw the defendant write the name " E. Devillers" to one of the May dampeck bins; that was some time in 1864. Wit ness afterwards reminded him of that, and the de fendant said "It's all right. Grant, keep your own counsel." By Mr. Sleigh, for the defence.--It was a com mon thing for the defendant to sign Deviller's name to the bills, and he did not think it out of course, knowing the close intimacy that existed between the CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—This Day. OLD COURT. CHARGE OF PERJURY. Albert Henry Ellworthy, a solicitor, was indicted for wilful and corrupt perjury committed in that court in January last. The prosecutor was Mr. Thomas Cannon, a newspaper proprietor and re porter, and from the evidence it appeared that in September, 18G5, he was desirous of obtaining a loan of £lOO, and a person named Jenkins intro duced Cannon to the defendant's firm as a person willing to lend the money of a client named lloney. They required Cannon to sign a declaration that he was the sole and registered proprietor of two unen cumbered newspapers. This was done, and after wards it was discovered that matters were not as had been represented. Cannon was tried in this court in January last for the offence, and sentenced to two months' imprisonment. A. counter charge of perjury was now brought by Cannon against Ell worthy for swearieg that there was no draft of the declaration, the prosecutor alleging that no such a draft was in existence ; and, further, that he (Cannon) had struck out the words that the papers were not unencumbered, and supposing the declara tion to be a correct copy of the draft he signed it withoutreading it. The defendant alleged that what the prosecutor stated was the draft was merely a slip of paper, on which, in the first inter view with Cannon, he merely took down a state ment of the prosecutor's assets and liabilities. The jury retired to consider the verdict, and after an absence of an hour and a half returned into court with a verdict of guilty. The defendant then surrendered into custody. His lordship said he should defer passing sentence until he had consulted the judges of the Court of Common Pleas as to whether a point raised during the trial by the counsel for the defendant should be submitted to the Court for Crown cases reserved. He should require the defendant to appear next session to receive sentence. He would, however, admit the prisoner to bail, himself in £2OO, and two sureties of £lOO each, or one surety of £2OO. The required bail having been put in, the de fendant was liberated. POLICE INTELLIGEKCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGII-STREET. A SHOCKING STORY.—WIFE BEATING. —James Moran, a labouring man, was charged before Mr. Kuox with assaulting his wife, Mary Moran, re- siding at No. 6, Smith's-court, Windmill-street. The Complainant said—Last night I was asleep in bed •with my children, the room door being on the latch, when my husband came in, woke me up, then began abusing me and calling me filthy names. He said if I did not get out of bed he would pull me out, and he then rushed on to the bed and com menced striking me, and it was with great difficulty I kept him from injuring my face, but having to go out to work I tried my utmost to do so, and suc ceeded. One of my children, who was almost naked, went out to look for a policeman but could not find one, and on coming back said to my husband, "If you don't let my mother alone I will strike you with this," having a tool used by my husband in his hand at the time. My husband then took up something to strike her with, and I went almost naked to the Vine-street station, a female on the road lending me her shawl. He ill- uses me, and accuses me of adultery with three different men, without the slightest foundation. I have my living to get, and it's very hard. Mr. Knox—Has he been here before ? Complainant—Yes, for deserting me. Inspector Bowles—He has been here often. Prisoner—Did I strike you last night ? Complainant—Yes. Prisoner—Were you not drunk two or three days this week ? 871 I Complainant—No. ,ITIIC6. Prisoner-1 did not strike her. Sergeant Lees, 9 C—l was at the station last night, when the complainant, almost in a ;:tate of nudity, came in. I went to the house No. 6, Smith's-court, and learned that the complainant had not been home when the affair took place more than an hour from her work. The prisoner, who was drunk, was lying down and pretending to be asleep. The complainant showed me her breast, and it was blackened, and the prisoner seemed to rejoice in the circumstance that his wife had no marks to show. I took the prisoner into custody, and having made inquiries of the neighbours ascer tained that for the past three weeks the prisoner had only given his wife 7s. to keep the home. Inspector Bowles—l know the wife as a hard working woman, and the prisoner as a drunken man. Prisoner--She has been charged as much as I have. She was drunk two or three days this week. I was drunk last night, and when I am drunk I am mad. She knocked me about, and lam not going to be knocked about. Mr. Knox—Judging from appearances your wife does not look like a drunken woman. Complainant—He had 30s. to draw last Satur3ay, and he left me to go to work without tasting food, and never gave me one penny for the children's food. Mr. Knox (to the prisoner)—After all I have heard, and what seems to be known of you, I can have no doubt what your conduct was last night. You sly when you get drunk you are mad, and I believe you. A more shocking story I never heard. Just imagine a child eleven years of age driven to defend his mother from his father. You are a drunken, worthless man. You can earn good wages, and might live in comfort and happiness, but in stead of doing so you get drunk, act as you did last night, and lead a wretched life. You will be im prisoned for three months, with hard labour. WESTMINSTER. DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT AT A. TAVERN.—Henry Williams, a man of colour, was charged with vio lently assaulting Henry Fryer, barman at the Feathers Tavern, Broadway, Westminster. Fryer stated that at half-past seven, last evening, he heard a disturbance at one end of the bar, and was called upon to put a drunken woman out. He had no sooner done so than the defendant rushed upon him, knocked him down, and tried to strangle him. Mr. Selfe—Was he drunk? Complainant—He was not, and had not the police interfered I believe he would have strangled me. He flew at me with great violence, and tore my shirt from my back. Mr. Samuel Eadon, the proprietor of the tavern, said that the woman in question, who was intoxi cated, came in, and seizing a glass of ale went up to some gentlemen who were present and asked them to drink with her. She used exceedingly bad lan guage, and was requested to go out, but refused. He then desired his barman to put her out, and he did so, but she returned and still misconducted herself. Suddenly the defendant made his appearance, and said "I have spotted' yoa, and intend to settle you," and immediately rushed upon the com plainant. Police-constable 236 A said he saw a crowd assembled outside the Feathers, and crossing to it saw defendant knock the barman down. mediately went to his assistance. He im Defeudant said his wife had been turned out very roughly. Ife was very sorry and was now ready to apologise. Mr. Selfe said it was too late. His wife was drunk, and had very properly been put out for her misconduct. Defendant must pay 20s. or be im prisoned 14 days. THAMES. • DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY—BRIGANDS IN A PUBLIC STREET.—Johu Donovan, a morose and dirty-looking ruffian, aged 17, and described as a shoemaker of No. 8f , Spring-gardens, King Edward street, Mile-end New-town, was charged with being concerned, with two other thieves, not in cus tody, in assaulting and robbing Mr. John Land ridge, of No. 10, Sackwell-street, Bethnal-green. Mr. Landridge stated that he was returning from the west end along the Whitechapel-road, at twelve o'clock last night, with a lady on his arm, and upon reaching a public-house called the Loudon no3pital, defendant and Mr. Greenland, the manager of the tition did not violate any of the rules of the house which Leeds Bank.

It was true that all the Powers who bad signed this treaty may be called upon, either separately or collectively, to preserve the neutrality of the duchy, but the risk of disturbing the peace of Europe was far less now than previous - to the meeting of the Conference. After some remarks from Mr. Goschen, Mr. Sandford, Mr. Kinnaird, and Mr. Danby Seymour, the subject dropped. The house went into committee pro forma, and resumed. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. -LAST EVENING. The SPBAKER took the chair at two o'clock. VACCINATION BILL. On the motion for the recommittal of this bill, Lord R. MONTAGU stated the objects of the bill, the chief of which was to assimilate the law of England with that of Scotland, which made it compulsory that all chil dren be vaccinated within six months of birth. The fear ful disease of small-pox had greatly decreased in that country since the law had been in operation, and, there fore, he thought it highly important that such a law should be in force in England. Sir J. C. JERVOISE moved, as an amendment, that the consideration of the bill be postponed till after the report of the medical officers of the Privy Council, 1866, SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.—This Day shall have been distributed. Col. BARTELOTT supported the amendment. Ile thought it highly inexpedient to pass such a stringent measure before any inquiry had been instituted whether vaccination was right or wrong. He thought, under such circumstances, it was extremely hard to make all heads of families liable to a fine of 205., who neglected to apply for and fill up certain forms set forth in the act. Mr. BRUCE supported the bill, which he said con tained no new proposal, as compulsory vaccination was at the present moment the law of the land. All the measure did was to collect the whole of the scattered enactments on the subject of vaccination into one bill, which intro duced great improvements in the machinery for carrying it into operation. The bill made ex ceptions in case of the state of health of the child; and with respect to the efficiency of vaccination, he stated that the principal medical officer of the Smallpox Hospital, whose experience extended over twenty years led him to the opinion that in cases of non-vaccination the deaths from smallpox was 3to 1, whilst the proportion amongst those vaccinated properly the deaths were only lin 300. He thought nothing but prejudice stood in the way of a general adoption of the safeguard, and the sooner that was broken down the better. The bill proposed that the public vaccinators should be adequately remunerated, and that registrars should also:participate in the improved scale of payments proposed by the bill. lie was quite aware that there wore matters of detail which led to much difference of opinion, but they could be settled in com mittee, and he therefore hoped the house would proceed with the bill. Mr. HENLEY objected to the details of the bill, and he was strongly opposed to that portion of the measure which made it compulsory for parents to bring their children to the various stations for vaccination, because such an ar rangeMent was likely to produce very bad effects. He thought it should be optional whether vaccination was done at the parent's home or the station ; and, further, he thought the attempt to drive the people to do that to which they had an objection was not likely to result in a very great success. Dr. BRADY said that he believed it was the general opinion of the medical profession that compulsory vaccina tion was necessary for the welfare of society, and there fore he should give his support to the bill. Mr. LOWE thought that the poor children who die through not being vaccinated ought to be as much con sidered by hon. gentlemen as those children who, they said, were submitted to the pain of having four punctured wounds inflicted on their arms, and then having them re opened on the eighth day. He felt that the bill was an exceedingly good one, and ho therefore hoped the house would go into committee, and thereby do something towards perfecting a measure which was calculated to diminish the deaths from small-pox, which swept off the people by thousands. Mr. KENDALL was in favour of the bill, but ho hoped the enactment relating to the huddling the poor people together in vaccine stations would be altered. The amendment was negatived without a division, and hte house went into committee on the bill. Clauses 1 to 4 were agreed to without amendment. On clause 5 a discussion arose relative to the duty of the Government inspector going round the country examin ing the children to ascertain whether vaccination had been well and successfully done, upon which the reward of the medical men would depend. Mr. HENLEY thought the proposal was likely to lead to great inconvenience, and Mr. M. Chambers thought it a reflection upon the medical profession that a Govern ment inspector should go round to ascertain whether me dical gentlemen of high honour had done their duty ; he therefore moved that the clause bo struck out. Dr. Brady thought the medical man ought to be paid well for his work, and then there would bo no necessity for rewards. The clause was ultimately agreed to. On clause 6 being proposed, which enacted that children should be brought to appointed stations for vaccination, Mr. HENLEY moved to strike out the words " ap pointed station," in order that vaccination might take place either at the house of the appointed medical roan or at the homes of the parents of the children, and that , the vac.Anator might receive payment for the operation per formed under such circumstances, because as the bill stood' the vaccinator was only to receive payment for those children vaccinated at the station.' Lord ROBERT MONTAGU would not 'oppose the amendment, tecause that appeared to be the object of the bill. The amendment was withdrawn on the understanding that the intention of that part of the clause should be more clearly detined. Dr. BRADY then moved his amendment, which related to the remuneration public vaccinators should receive. The house was engaged on this discussion up to seven o'clock, when the sitting was suspended until nine. On the re -assembling of the House at nine o'clock, Major ANSON drew attention to the petition of "E. Truelove and others," which had been on the 3d of May ordered to be laid on the table of the House, and which ho considered criticised the conduct of this country, both in Ireland and in India, in such a manner as ought never to Ibe recorded on the journals of the House. He, therefore, moved that its reception and printing be cancelled. Mr. B. COCHRANE seconded the motion. Mr. W. E FORSTER objected to entertai , ing such a motion as that before the House, seeing that six weeks had transpired since the petition was presented. Mr. C. FORSTER, as Chairman of the Petitions Com mittee, said it was not in their power to reject the petition, and recommended Major Anson to withdraw his motion. Mr. MILL observed that if Major Anson was consistent he ought to follow up his motion for cancelling the peti tion by moving his (Mr. Mitre) expulsion from the House, for there was not a single sentiment in the petition which he was not prepared to subscribe to. fie felt grateful to the gentlemen who had signed the petition, in which they had expressed sentiments that nearly the whole of Eueope en tertained. Sir C. RUSSEL L thought if anything justified the motion before the House, it was the speech just delivered by Mr. Mill. Mr. REARDON reminded the house that the petition was presented when there was a very full house, and that no objection was then raised to its reception. After a few words from Mr. D. Griffith, Mr. Neate, and Colonel North, informed the house that the pe - Xr. DODSON ofaoially (By Electrie Telegraph.) GIIATESEXD, Saturday Morning.

MACKEREL.—From 50 to 60 tons of mackere were caught on the Cornish coast in the week ended on Wednesday, and sold at from 12s. to 17s. 6d. per six more. The season is rapidly drawing to a close, and preparations aro already being made by many of the boats for the pil chard fishery. Nearly 2,500 tons of mackerel have been despatched by rail this spring from Cornwall to London and the important provincial markets. CASE OF BATTENING.--Within the last few days four bands have been maliciously cut at Owen's Tire and Axle Works, Rotherham. As the long continued de pression of trade has, by the receipt of a large order, shown some signs of drawing to a close, this disgraceful act has excited much indignation both among the proprietors and the general public. Every effort is being made to dis cover the offenders, and to hasten their apprehension a reward of £6O has been offered. ' _ _ ASSAULT BY TRADES' UNIONISTS.—On Wednes day Wm. Clayton, aged 21, a blacksmith, who had been ap prehended under a warrant, was brought before the Black burn magistrates on the chary of brutally assaulting Wm. Newton, on the 21th March last. Thl affair arose out of the strike of iron-workers at Blackburn. Clayton pleaded guilty to the offence, but urged that he acted under the instigation of the ringleader, Scott, who was his foreman, and who had influenced him to leave his work. The bench at first sentenced the prisoner to a month's imprisonment, but afterwards consented to give him the alternative of a penalty of £5 and costs.—Manchester Courier. A deplorable accident bas just taken place at Ems. Count de Kielmansegge and his wife were taking a drive in the neighbo urhood, when the horses, startled by a cart, became unmanageable, and dashed off at a furious rate. They at last came with great violence against a wall. The Count was thrown from his seat, and in falling received so severe a wound on the head that he died on the following night. The countess sustained no injury, but `the carriage was broken to pieces and the horses killed. ' FATAL BOATING ACCIDENT.—The North British Mail records a sad accident on Loch Ascog, near Rothesay. On Monday evening, a party of four, including Mr. Dun can Macfarlane, teacher, and a young man named Mac kenzie, his assistant, were out in a boat upon the loch fishing, and, after enjoying about a couple of hours' sport, they put back towards the shore, but hail not proceeded far when a sudden squall swamped their little craft. Two of the party gained the shore, but the two named, after clinging for a long time to the capsized boat, sank from exhaustion and were drowned.

NAVIGATION OF THE AM NEON. FrOnt Para we have a very interesting item of news. It is nothing less than that throe important tributaries of the mighty Amazon—the Ucayali, Pachitoa, and Palcaza—have been successfully navigated by steamers for a distance of 1,227 miles from the embouchure of the first-named.river.
